I lived off the grid in a two room cabin for a year+ in a valley 80 miles from civilization.
Out house. Showers off the porch in the winter and only a wood cookstove to eat and heat with.
No tv, no radio, no phones. Riding trains to get groceries.
News days like today make me nostalgic for that year of innocence.
πππππ. Take me to that dream land.

Fished for dinner. Ran from bears and shot my first rsttlesnake. Damn cold when the fire went out at night in 3' of snow.π
Jumping moving trains sometimes meant groceries didn't make it.
Still up for it?
Not bad. A bit fishy, maybe, but it was pretty good battered and fried.
Not as fishy as alligator.
@mcfate @Kurtroedeger
Like chicken when it is fried in garlic butter. Lots n lots of garlic.
@peeppeepcircus @northernbassist @Kurtroedeger @damselfly59
Ditto. Bones like fish, tastes like chicken.

"You take chicken, for example: maybe they couldn't figure out what to make chicken taste like, which is why chicken tastes like everything." β The Matrix
@damselfly59 @Kurtroedeger lol yep⦠if in a milder climate!
^5 on the rattlesnake, too. Iβve also had to shoot one. And have gotten stung by a scorpion, come face to face with curious bobcats, heard screams at night. Those things are scary when youβre a small group. I wouldnβt like the cold, though. The hardest thing was hauling water or when a tree came down and flooded the yurt at night.. pulled the plug on the lights had to carry my toddler out through rushing water & mud in the dark.
@damselfly59
Yessssss.
Days not having to talk to people is a day dream I ponder on frequently.
::solitude::
If I win the lottery you would know when I disappear.
A cabin far away from people π
I don't mind working for food and survival. I'm solid with a shotgun and not too shabby with a rifle.
How does rattlesnake taste?
