I’m off the grid now and I have been for a few years.
- I have been working on a place out in the country for a long time and I finally have it just about exactly how I want it to be.
I am basically self sustaining these days. I have a big garden, a well that I dug myself, and a couple of other water sources. I live right next to a big forest and there are plenty of animals around for hunting. I can also fish in the river that is close by and I am raising some of my own livestock and poultry for food, too. I love being off the grid, for the most part. One of the things that I was worried about when I first moved out here was the lack of a heating and cooling system. Even though I really wanted to live off the grid, I did not want to give up my heating system and my air conditioning system! Now, instead of a furnace like I used to have, I only heat with a wood burning stove and a wood burning fireplace. However, I wasn’t really ready to get rid of my air conditioning. I love to have central air conditioning during the summer and so I got myself all set up with a great generator so that I can run a window unit air conditioner during the hottest parts of the summer. I honestly don’t think that I could commit to living off the grid the way that I have if I didn’t have a way to run the A/C.
