    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    Guess it depends on your definition of off grid. I have two neighbors, the national forest and a 9800 acre block of timber company land.I haven't been up there in a while (last went to Atlanta, TX), but here the biggest issue is you buy X acres and then shortly after someone else builds a dozen...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The hardest part here is making sure it's the right season or time of day to avoid hitting deer. Of course the roads that actually have curves have no shoulder at all and the painted line is half on/halff off the road.

    The internet as it was in 1996

    Early 80's got online using a 110 baud converted teletype modem. For a while had a fido net. Messages were stored and then transmitted at night to other nodes when the price for long distance calls were cheaper.

    I was deathly afraid of divorce forever. For the longest time my long time girlfriend and I put off marriage. She wouldn't sign a prenup and we just went on. The only thing I wanted to protect in the prenup was land I now owned that had been in the family that was an original land grant when...

    I have a hand crank grinder that I inherited. I didn't grind up much meat. Most stuff I wanted ground up went to the butcher. Send off a hog with enough deer to mix in to make sausage.
