Off The Grid, Texas

A blog of our progress as we build a shipping container house for a home on our peaceful Texas Hill Country farm and vineyard. Our plan is to exist off the grid using a solar panels power station, wind turbines, batteries, inverters, and the like for our electricity. We have rain gutters and barrels in place for most of our water needs along with a large pond that stayed full even throughout the recent Texas droughts. We invite you to grab a big ole cup of coffee and follow along in the fun!

October Rain

Awesome rain this morning! Lots of wind. Cooking breakfast tacos: jimmy dean turkey sausage, old red potatoes sauteed in evoo, and HEB chunky salsa in a grilled tortilla! Yummy!
