    This was one of those days we&apos;ll never forget. Seeing the lights come on for the first time after tracking down the electrical problems made every hour of work worth it. Reliable power changes what&apos;s possible at the cabin, and it&apos;s another major milestone in transforming this abandoned place into the off-grid home we&apos;ve been working toward since day one.<br>🎥 Subscribe and follow the journey → <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@lifenorthofnormal?sub_confirmation=1">https://www.youtube.com/@lifenorthofnormal?sub_confirmation=1</a>

    Just a thought in case you haven&apos;t done this. You might want to build a sewage digester and that way you can make Methane &nbsp;for you burners to cook with.

    Ive been following your YouTube channel fro. The first time you went to the cabin.<br><br>All the journeys to clean up the cabin and bringing your personal items to the cabin on a sledge in the snow and having to put tyre chains on your truck to prevent getting stuck in the snow.<br><br>Its awesome watching you both ve creative and making the off grid cabin your new home in such cold temperatures.<br><br>Your video today with friends felt somewhat like a new home party with preparing food for your guests with your new life off grid.<br><br>It myst have been really exciting to finally have some power to finally switch on the lights.<br><br>I hope you have a very long and healthy future in your new home with lots of special memories to cherrish 😊<br><br>Take care and stay safe.<br><br>I was wondering if you both have had any encounter with any bears yet?<br><br>Are they use to people or do you have to stay vigilant incase you encounter any aggressive behaviour from hungry bears ?<br><br>Sending best wished from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
