    Every RUclips channel takes breaks from posting, so, don’t worry if you need a break. As for too much snow, we had none here in northern Delaware. A mixed blessing, was there really a winter? I’m not happy with a mud season instead of winter.

    Glad you posted this episode because watching your previous videos, I could see that you had a very long driveway and I wondered how you dealt with ice build-up AND MUD season! Chains on tractor tires works great, but what about the mud? Do you park your vehicle at the end of your drive and hike in until things dry up or do you have some other trick?

    • @thedanahomestead2618
      @thedanahomestead2618 Год назад

      All of our vehicles can handle the mud. Also Nathan has done a tone of work on the driveway, adding gravel etc., to make it not as muddy in the spring.

    I'm so glad you mentioned how helpful it is to have Nathan living off grid with you, because I too have this dream of living off grid but I'm worried about whether or not it's a good idea for a woman to try doing so ALONE. Especially at my age (66). Your channel has been very helpful in giving me insight as to the pros and cons of living this lifestyle. Oh and excuse me for interrupting your shopping the other day, but I was so stunned and star-struck, I couldn't restrain myself!🤩

    I don’t know how your drains are configured but in your place, I’d bury them in some sort of insulation. Apparently they are in an unconditioned space. Best choice is to condition the space but this may not be realistic, so “ condition “ the pipes. Could use heat tape but this would be a high energy cost solution.

    I noticed you switched from the percolator to a French press. Was that to save time in the coffee making or does it make better coffee? Your house is sooo cozy. I love how DEEP into the woods you are, but it must make for a lot of work sanding it when it turns to ice...as it surely will after this storm we're having today! (I live in Moscow, just up the road from you.)

    • @thedanahomestead2618

      We use whatever we feel like in the moment. We have been using the french press recently on the weekends instead of the percolator to save on time. Even though the percolator does make better coffee it just takes too long. We need are caffeine lol
