Power me up.
What a difference a few days make. I just blogged about off-grid power solutions and today Leakhana rings me and gives me some wonderful news. At first I thought she was going to say the neighbors were selling some more land as she started with the usual “Juntha just rang and wants to know if we are interested in…..”. This would have been met with a terse shoot-down. However,the end of the sentence was actually….”getting the power connected to the land ! “.
Holy Shit !!!
Turns out that over 30 families on the road have pitched in money and all we have to do is pitch in too and we will get electricity ! They are actually starting the cabling in a week or so if Leakhana got the news straight !
Holy Shit !
So that changes everything ! Now we can have fans and lights and pools and fridges and music and and and and aircon and and more lights !! WUHOOOOOOOO !
Screw holidaying off-grid. That’s for hippies.
Anyways I will believe it when I see it so stay tuned….
quick change of tune there Garnett !!
seriously , electricity sounds a LOT more like it, congratulations , hope the missus has that correct.
Cheers pal
Well you know me Goyz…..I am as tough as nails but if its a choice between sweating my balls off in the dark with no fans or sleeping soundly …….pass the Chardonnay me old mate.
Keeping my fingers crossed for ya. Off grid can be done, but there’s a reason the grid was invented in the first place.
I am hearing you Dave! If it is any consolation, without town water my trips to the long drop will still be off grid 😉
