The Tower of Lasqueti Island

In late September, I was fortunate enough to visit one of my dearest friends, Ingo Dyrkton, on the remote, off-grid island of Lasqueti. Ingo has been perfecting his wood carving skills with century old adze, and has been living off-grid for decades, all the while. He was kind enough to guide this sweet tour of his abode called 'The Tower'.
Every structure on Lasqueti is built remotely. The wood was locally fallen and milled on Lasqueti. Additional materials are often imported to the island on a barge. Every system is thought out to be efficient and custom to the unique needs and imagination of the owner. There are no building permits, and so every building is permeated with rustic uniqueness, and 'The Tower' is of no exception.
When ever I step foot on Lasqueti, I instantly feel a deep peace. There is a bodily relief to be so remote, so away from the noise, the busy-ness, the worries of others. Life becomes more immediate and simple. Lasqueti has always felt like a little piece of home, and it wouldn't be possible without such generous and loving friends that inhabit it, like the legendary Ingo, himself.

I've been to this island! Boated into a quiet cove. Hopped out of boat and immediately cut open my feet from all the oyster shells rofl. Tented one night, no sleep as the mosquitoes were so bad, I've never seen them worse than there. Never returned rofl. Pretty island but oh my goodness for mosquitoes!!

You mean to tell me they dont have power on the island yet?? Was there way back in 1978. Mostly everybody was using diesel generators at that time.
