@solarcabin Stopped by to check out the land and the setup! What an HONOR!
He’s been living off-grid for 20 years. So what and honor for him to swing by and check out what I’ve been doing and give recommendations.
I believe the most powerful thing you can do in life is help others, and @solarcabin does that. I moved here a year ago and have lived in a canvas tent all this time (through the harsh winter). He is evaluating my system and situation now to help me move forward. HUGE *hug* to him.

    Nice video , but a bit of a correction. Propane will gel up and not flow long before gasoline. Propane stores much better however. I have had propane not flow many times in northern Canada once it gets past minus 40 . Propane powered vehicles will not work when gasoline does. Diesel can gel as well without the proper additives. Awesome set up you have , love it !

    Awesome Van. Things are coming along well. I was actually surprised to see you still had water in your catch pond. That is awesome. I feared that it would go right into the ground without a membrane. Back in the day, the old timers would put a hog wire fence around the catchment and put a few hogs in to seal the pond. Their wallowing around would mix the water into a mud or clay base that would then hold water. Of course the obvious downside is now you would have hogs to feed. :) I was in the Marine Corps in the 60s and stationed in Yuma, AZ., for about a year and a half. We stayed in the desert for months at a time on HAWK missile exercises. We slept in wall tents with cots. After finding a huge spider and some finding scorpions in their sleeping bags, I placed all of the cot legs into tin cans with an inch or so of diesel to keep the buggers out. Worked darn well.
