It would be amazing to live off the grid.
That doesn't mean I want to be a family of 5 and go live in a 4x4 trailer on the coast.
My neighbors did this in October. It bothers me still. I worry about the little kids. Home schooled and no access to tv and home church. I was told it was to keep the government out of their business. I didn't ask what that meant.
I should say, I think homeschooling is great. I don't think it is great if it is a way to keep a weird way of life. I didn't think that until they took a great plunge into isolationism without the ways and means to be comfortable.
I thought about them this Christmas morning.
