Thank you and it'd be awesome if you did come out to visit with your trailerLooks like another great property. May have to see about one of those RV spots...haha. That's my kind of place. Quiet and no one around. Congrats! Looks like between all your properties you'll have plenty to keep you busy.
Thank you and we'd love to have you and your family out for a visitVery cool guys, that’s an extremely cool and scenic property. Be awesome to check that out someday. Love all the trees.
Oh yeah, now that sounds like funThis would be an epic multi day trip, start in idk middlegate station and end in your back yard??
Thank you. The nearest power is across the highway and down a bit from the corner of our property line. We were told by the previous owner that it would cost about $60k to bring a line in. However, after reading about your experience, I'm starting to wonder if we might be able to do something like that too. Still like the idea of solar but would rather have it as a back-up then a primary source. I really appreciate your insight on this.Congratulations, and thanks for sharing that place is RAD!
how far to the nearest power?
I ask because we lived on generator and hospital batteries/inverter for 3 years. Being off grid is cool and all but it sucked as a high school kid. LOL, I just had to move the original 2000 watt inverter the other day, that sucker is like 50 pounds and huge compared to modern stuff. It was one of the baddest inverters made for personal use in the 90’s.
Local utility wanted $36K originally to run power 1/2 mile. It had to be underground due to restrictions that were part of the property purchase. We eventually talked them down to $18K by doing the trench and conduit ourselves, and the final bill was actually only $9K because we worked as laborers during the install.
