About Me
- Frugal Canadian Hermit
- I am a 50 year old guy. I have been living off grid in an 8x24 foot shack since Oct 25 2009. (Finally moved into the house in the fall of 2012). So far I am loving every minute of it. My solar power system is working better than I have expected from it. Shortly after moving out here, it turned real cold for about a week. Pretty close to minus 40 C/F. I thought I was in for a deadly cold winter, but it actually turned out to be pretty mild from what I am used to. I am in the process of building my dream cabin(home), but things have been moving along rather slowly, mostly because of lack of knowledge, and alot of the time I get busy on my pay job. It would really be kinda neat to be in the new house by this winter, but I will make no promises. I am going to remain off grid, because I like it. I used to worry about what everyone thought of me for wanting to live like this, but now that I have been doing it, and know that it totally works for me, I don't really care what anyone thinks anymore. The more I live like this, the more I feel that I am actually the smarter one. lol. If anyone has any questions or comments, please feel free, I would love to hear from you.
Beautiful country...but what's all that white stuff?
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, Hermit...don't see much of that in Texas!
Your lucky Jim. This hermit sees lots of it. Every winter and all winter long. LOL.

ReplyDeleteNice pictures, and great objectives. Looking forward to watching the progress.

Thanks Jeanie, ya it has been alot warmer here lately. Mud will be flying soon, which is a good thing this time of year.
ReplyDeleteI love the cabin. Of course I treasure the snow too, since like HermitJim (live in Houston) and we SURE don't see snow like that. Your home looks simply wonderful and cozy. I can smell the beans and cornbread from here....oops, thought I was going crazy....that's what I'm cooking since I don't have any Lone Star Card or food stamps like what seems like most of Houston has.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming in an having a look around Donna. The cabin is'nt mine. Not yet anyway.
