So proud of all that y'all have accomplished!!!!!! You are living your dream 😃
Thank you!! 😊
Awesome job ! you have a beautiful view, a little at a time it will all come together just a little sweat maybe, a few tears , sometimes plans change a little as you go, just working together you will enjoy it so much more when it's all done , Lol you never done on an off grid acreage, Just remember to have fun along the way :)
It’s def. been all of those things! The hard times are hard but the good times are really good. Ironically I hope it’s never ‘done’ because the journey is the best part! Thanks for the positive thoughts!
Looks like y’all need to harness the wind power. Love watching the progress, looks awesome , can’t wait for future videos. God bless y’all 🙏🏻
Haha we’ve actually talked about it, the tricky part is having to have a separate charge controller for the wind input. We’re set up better for it now that we’ve got the victron lynx distributor, so maybe in the future!

This is my first time watching your video’s but I really was impressed at all your work and the place looks like home. I love all the trees and the scenery is beautiful. Do you mind sharing the state you in. I’m going to subscribe to see what all you have planned for this place
Thank you Linda! We are located in East Tennessee. Thank you for subscribing and watching!
Looks like you could use the steam for hydro power ....
Definitely at times! The tough part would be getting the flow rate needed to generate enough voltage consistently. Love the concept though!
Happy New Year. I'm new to the channel, are you planning on building a house on your property?
Happy New Year! Yes, we plan to build our home on the property this Fall if all things work out! 🤞🏼 thanks for watching!
I new to this
Thanks for watching!
What's the power lines for? 🤔 2:25
That photo is the road that leads to our driveway. There is a power pole at the end of our driveway. All of our neighbors have power running to their property; however, we only use solar power for our power needs.
