Going off-grid permanently

#1 Post by craigevil »

Going off-grid permanently. Fight the oppressors, fight for your rights. So long and thanks. May God be with you all. The Last Days are here and Jesus will be coming soon.(Yes I know a big no-no,sorry) Take care.

It has been nice knowing everyone here.

Wind mill? solar panels? Out in the middle of nowhere?
I respect that. Been thinking of something similar. Best wishes Craig.

I hope you find what you're looking for, and I hope it wasn't us that finally convinced you :-)

Thanks for all your help.

Off the FDN grid or really 'off-grid' as in boonies survivalist? If the latter, is someone going to continue to maintain your giant sources list? That resource would really be missed
May the FORK be with you!

Flashback... I had the top bunk in basic training (Army) and woke up one morning to the drill Sargent gentle wake up call and had a fractured vertebrae in my neck before I remembered I was in the top bunk. Well, I probably remembered about half way down but the sudden stop at the bottom really drove that point home.

Good luck OP... I'm such a city boy I couldn't imagine being off grid or having wild animals wander across my path.

Permanently...? Wish to Jesus that everything else is good for you Sir. No matter what your current dilemma is, hope you resolve it.
May the Light be with you!
