  1. Another thing that often gets overlooked. K, my better half pickles and cans. But now that i think about it, i better learn too. Life outside the grid could be terribly rough if something happened (sickness or injury). Same goes for her, i better get her on the guns and hunting. Tough to do though since her grandma was accidentally shot by a family member
  2. Call us crazy then sinker, cause it sounds like heaven to me. To me there is just nothing on earth more satisfying then working for your own families survival, in the elements and raw. Where rules and morals are taught and used, where knowledge is king, and worth more then its weight in gold. Man, sounds too good.
  3. It would be nice to still have things like that, i mean they make hard work a lil less hard and provide more options. But financially, if you step outta the grid, how do you do that? Unless you get a license to trap, but then you still need phone and or internet to sell. The bartering system would be ideal, but where i live i cant see that happening
  4. One thing i find hard to plan is whether or not i can do without some modern day toys. There is definitely a difference between old school, and the new old school lol, if that makes any sense? I mean things like fishing rods and lures, chainsaws, 4 wheelers and ski doos, things like that
  5. awesome! Please do!!!
  6. Oh and the mere fact its basically illegal lol. But thats a whole other topic
  7. i second that post by bruce. Our goal is too be self sustaining, but there are sooo many variables to deal with. We have a large family, school, hockey, soccer and other " social" activities that i believe the kiddos deserve. So its hard to step away from that. But, for years now we have been teaching the kids to fish, forage, start fires etc. next up is hunting. Its gonna take time, but in ten years, i can totally envision us in the bush with minimal needs. But its tough, even the mere mention of the word gas, changes everything
  8. We do a similar thing, trying the best we can. Its tough though. About 10 years ago me and two buddies got stuck on an island with minimal tools and it sure was tough. Another day i woulda been dead. Gave me a new appreciation. Food is no doubt a full time job if we went back old school
  9. This cause it just oozes family This cause its my daughters first walleye, 2 years old and she landed it ( mostly) by herself. . This because its my sons biggest smallie. Almost 7lbs. Bigger, mych bigger than my pb. Landed on a lil spincast kiddos rod. This cause its family, and iguided that trip, superb fish! . This necklace cause my daughter made it. Photo sucks but its been my good luck charm since i put it on. . I have many more lol
