Philippians 4:13 --- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Jesus, you will make it to a place called Success. Pass it on .

Another new day has given us hope to live independently. There are so many possibilities to live off the grid, however there is so much that can still be accomplished with doing so. Living off the grid basically means to detach your normal everyday way living by generating most or all of your living needs. First and foremost is the need to generate utilities. Solar, wind, and hydro are the principle ways to generate your off the grid power supply. More on this later. In addition to creating a sustainable power source, we will have to take a look back at how our grandparents and their parents used to live. Gardening and harvesting a food source is essential. It is also something that in todays world has become a lost trade skill. We want to bring this back to subsidize our living needs and help educate others in our community so that they can do the same. In general, this way of life is a happier, healthier way to live. All with reducing our carbon footprint. Read more post to follow our story and learn ways you too can help yourself and the environment.

We are a newlywed couple with a big dream. Just getting started. To work the earth with our bare hands, and to grow our own food on land that we own would be amazing. To use solar, wind, and hydro power to power our own home, and possibly other farms around us. To live simply and to work hard. To rely on each other rather than corporate America. These are a few of the dreams we have. To share the knowledge of how to power our lives with others, and to leave fear behind. This blog will be a journal of our journey. Thanks for stopping by, and check back to get a glimpse into the future.
