I chased money when I was younger, it nearly killed me. I have learned to live with less and I now measure my wealth by the time I have that is mine. Soon it will be 100% all mine but right now it's pretty damn close and it gives me motivation to strive for that last little bit. I can't tell you how much I love watching you and your family work and play together, if more people followed your example I truly believe that the world would be a much better place 🫶💫

We lived in a fifth wheel and a sailboat, and you learn to utilized daylight hours better, conserve fresh potable water and energy much more that when you are living in a place on the grid. We are planning to retire back to that life soon. We also recyle, rebuild the older stuff, since the new stuff you get these days doesn't seem to last, and usually costs an arm and a leg, and we don't need that much to be happy.

[@russellwatters5891]

I too chased money when I was younger, to provide my family with better than I had as a kid. I get it, they get it, there's only so many days given us in our life, choose wisely. My kids have been a great joy to me, each doing their own thing, each providing for themselves and families. They're thank you to me was helping me build some hunting cabins, and yes, they will inherit them, but it was more time we could spend together in this busy world. Love God, love life, love family, and each other...😊

Nice tiny cabin. You taught your daughters well. My daughter does all the building and fixing everything in her home.

[@Victorialands]

My husband and l are in our 60s with a few health conditions. We lived pretty isolated up until a few years ago and l have to say, l so miss it. We are closer to a smaller town but still on some land. We make the best of it and couldn’t live in suburbia. It would be like expecting an oak tree to grow in the Sahara, I’d die. Your place is so beautiful, you are no doubt what many aspire to be. I praise you both for showing people the “how TOs) and that it CAN be done. I gotta say, that cabin is pretty nice for a starter place on the land. All the best to you. 🙏🏻 💕

[@davidstoddard9160]

If you put a rail on the floor, it could open and close like a draw in the kitchen, and even have the soft closing track. This would make it so much easier for one person to slide in or out depending on if you want it to be a bed, or a sofa.

Those are awesome! I've built 2, double lofted 12×16's, which put the sleeping lofts upstairs for the younger ppl, and I put a Murphy bed downstairs for myself or older ppl. I put a black painted 30 gallon drum outside for hot water, a 12 volt pump for kitchen, and bathroom. Refrigerator 4.4 cu ft, all niceties of home, only off grid. At a cost of $3100 USD each, fully furnished. I love ya'll and your ingenuity, hard work, and togetherness. ❤

[@MikeSiemens88]

Re the shower. I've been to many backcountry lodges during the winter for ski touring & most have a sauna with a gravity type shower, either a bag or a watering can. The water for the shower is heated in the sauna. A couple dashes out the door to roll in the snow augment the whole sauna experience. One of the lodges decided to try an on-demand propane unit similar to yours. Don't recall where it was made but seemed like a pretty well-built little unit. Since they have micro hydro with a good deal of head pressure it was easy to hook up the propane job for the proverbial endless hot shower... It worked great, for a while.... until one lady experienced wild fluctuations in water temperature, from freezing to scalding to the flow stopping completely. Not a pleasant experience in the middle of winter (-20C) in a more or less outdoor shower stall... Can't really blame the propane unit as it turns out the fine mesh screen on the water inlet port was accumulating ice crystals from the micro hydro source affecting consistent flow of the water. At another backcountry lodge, more of a 5 star operation with hot/cold running water & flush toilets, they also use an on-demand propane shower unit. Proper shower room with all the amenities indoors works great. It also feeds water down to the kitchen sink. There's a massive wood fired boiler on the lower level that feeds another shower but that's only sufficient for maybe 3 showers until the boiler water gets cold. The on demand is great in that as long as you have propane & the incoming water is above freezing you're good to go.

[@davidgrenis638]

SO A TINY HOME FOR EACH ONE OF YOUR GIRLS

[@charlesurrea1451]

Absolutely brilliant use of that tick for the jump scare setup!😱 Hey put some rollers on, that bed would be fine. I tried those propane water heaters. You got to blow them out with some air The first one lasted a couple of months and then it just stopped igniting. I checked batteries, contacts etc. I went through the whole thing! I went through the second one to compare a new one to my dead one and found that the flow sensor was shot. I ended up cannibalizing both units and made one that was manually fired.

[@Gridlessness]

Nice to know you could actually work on it. I haven't opened them up yet but I figured it would be mostly un-serviceable.

[@kevinheske7783]

Froze my on demand water heater up also and I solder it up but took a lot of heat , map gas probably would be better guess it depends where it broke.

[@rougefox9233]

Love the cabins you built together as a family!! ❤ Next you ought to build a Saw Mill Lean-To Shed.. while you've got all your girls at home to help! 😉

[@harrypierce1298]

The on demand water heaters can be brazed to fix the leak. In my experience the water tubes run up down up down inside the heater, allowing water to puddle at the bottom (Picture an automobile a/c condenser, but rather than side to side, the heater goes top to bottom) They need to be blown out with air pressure, similar to a lawn sprinkler system. For extra insurance you can add RV antifreeze as well.

[@glennwilck5459]

C'mon Jeff I bet you can fix the broken pipe likedy split with some tubing or something and have your nice shower back. Would love to hear some suggestions on how to make a simple hot water shower set up from others who have done it!

[@ram1brn]

it isnt a broken pipe the bladder in the hot water heater broke from not being fully drained over winter

[@bradhupy653]

I had my first water heater like yours and trashed it by not draining. Bought two more for about 150 US 6 or 8 years ago. The cheap Chinese type. They have been working well all this time. You just have to make sure to remove the drain plug if it will freeze. The heat exchanger is made of thin brass and cannot take freezing.

[@backdoor5993]

Good work you guys! Thanks for sharing. I heard something not too long ago that actually inspired me. Whenever you are trying to decide to do something or not do something ask yourself, "What is the price?" It's not about money, but about your goals. If you want to live off-grid, for example, "What is the price of that lifestyle?" Are you willing to pay that price, is it worth it to you? That question has helped me in my decision process for the home we're building. BTW, love how you involve everyone in the decision/building process.

[@GrandmasGonnaFlip]

Might think about some kind of screens to cover the drains, the moisture under the cabins can draw snakes, insects, ect. Don't want to give them access to the home. Love the tiny cabins though.
