[QUOTE="SeaFaring, post: 445741, member: 22876"] My grandparents have a farm that’s basically set up that way, although that’s not how they live (they’ve added amenities over the years, but when I was a kid, the outhouse was still there, and they never lived there full time although my ancestors did). My wife also grew up in similar circumstances with select additions (like running water, but no central heat - just wood, split by hand). My father in law/tin boat supplier tells a story of back in the 1970s when a couple of folks out of Chicago came to their area to “live off the land.” They **** near starved to death that winter and fortunately for them, were able to borrow what they needed off of the local farmers. I’m glad I get to learn some lessons from people who lived that, and hear good stories, but have not had to figure it all out on my own. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
