Hi! We're Nick and Jen, a retired military veteran of 14 years and professional dancer/entertainer at Coyote Ugly Bar. Together, we decided to sell everything and break free of the glitz, glam and chaos of city life to move off gird. We live on our 20 acres of remote land in the mountains of Southern Utah.
We’re trying to be as self sufficient as possible by installing all our own utilities and doing everything DIY with as much modern technology as can make happen. Living off grid is about the freedom to build our own path one plank at a time. Life, indeed, is Elevated Off Grid. Come along and see what life is like as we continue to build our property and adventure around Southern Utah's mountains.

After two girls inherit the family ranch they decide to build up the herd and they needed a bull. The brunette tells the blonde she is going to the stockyard to by a bull and hopes to get it for 600. Upon purchase the blonde was suppose to come with the trailer and pick it up. The auctioneer says he can not sell it but for 599. So the brunette goes to the telegraph office to send her sister a message. The price was 99 cents a word. So the brunette says send the word comfortable. The clerk says how is that going to work and she says Come-for-da-bull.

Hey yall, I live alone and I am efficient when it comes to food and packaging. I produce so little garbage, I wash my garbage so it doesn't attract bugs. Our area just gave us those large wheeled garbage cans and it takes 6 weeks to make enough garbage to even fill up a tall kitchen garbage bag for me. In summer my cats poo outside so I don't need to change their litter as often. I used to rinse and toss the wet cat food tins into my recycle, but with everything going up, I stated holding onto them so I can get paid to recycle them as they are aluminum. 720 cans per year has to be worth something more than nothing.. Last year I used those tins to make passive solar collectors to help heat my home. Riveted together and painted flat black, stick in a window and they get quite hot. They saved 25% on energy to heat my home on sunny winter days. My home is extremely large, so I hang onto cardboard boxes and make forts for my cats. I change them often to spark interest in my cats during the winter, when they cant go outside.

wow! that is interesting! Our cats are mousers and they get most of the bugs and critters that go to the trash. Isn't the circle of life and recycling amaxing. Most of our trash is plastic, glass & metals.

12:16 I agree Jen, "looks good to me" also. Those mic's are working very well, you won't need to yell or be concerned about hearing over the wind. It's a wood shed, it needs to be quirky and doesn't need to be fully 'square'. Great job. 👍 Also the benefit of having your own dump trailer is that you don't need to 'transfer' your rubbish, so no (or minimal) rehandling. And lets face it, no unwanted critters finding a permanent supply 😉

Wood shed turned out great. The floor should be water sealed to make it last longer. Going to the dump is one of those things you simply need to do but it makes such a big difference when done you don't mind doing it. Getting a dump trailer will be good for you guys. You'll then make more frequent runs to the dump and it won't be such an ugly task. Plus the place will look cleaner all the time because you can clean up more frequently and get ride of it easier. Have a great week you guys. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

The shed looks fantastic but unfortunately they are not available in the UK 😢. But the wood shed looks awesome, however I would have used pallets for the floor as it would allow air to circulate from the bottom too. Also it would have been 2 pallets deep and 4 1/2 across 😊. I must admit I have loved watching your videos as it allows me to live vicariously through you both, as I would never be able to do what you two do as I’m disabled and in the UK. Besides land in the UK is either stupid money or protected (which means you can’t build on it 😢).

@4:34 The second sheet of roofing is backwards. The rib with the longer edge goes on the bottom. @5:56 You can see that the top rib is not seated correctly, because the seam has two bottom ribs. I cannot tell if other sheets are backwards. Hopefully you did not make this mistake on the apartment roof.

Hey guys, I mentioned this before, but I think it might be worth mentioning again. There might be something up with your YT settings. I am surprised why your subscribers are not growing cos ye are so good. When I see your channel it shows just left of the subscribe button the bell but with yours the bell is always greyed out with a line across it, (like not in use if you know what I mean). I have only ever seen this on your channel and never on any other channel I subscribe to. So I am wondering with algorithms on YT if this has some thing to do with your numbers. I am only trying to help. I am happy to send you a screen shot of what I see, just let me know,

I'm from Australia here you can lease before you buy, to find out contact horse groups in your area, you will need a bomb oroof pony fir Ricky. Make sure they are a reputable company or stable. Get her to join a riding school where she can learn what is needed to care for a horse. It's far more involved than just riding. Riding lessons are a good beginning.

Growing up as a youngster we lived out in the middle of nowhere. We had like you tons (?) of garbage to contend with. My mom once a week would burn our garbage and once every few months or so would take whatever did not burn to the dumpsite. Burning our garbage reduced our need for landfill trips greatly. So why can't you do the same thing? It saves trips to the dump and is less burdensome for the landfill. Just suggesting..... Firewood shed turned out fantastic by the way. ..... Me southern AZ.
