Ha.. you are describing my life.. I'm still on the electric grid but
I live in the woods in a very primitive way. I don't have running
water in winter and only cold running water in summer. An outhouse.

I have a friend I've known since high school and he brings people he
knows up to visitme so he can show me off like a museum exhibit, the
drop out from society who has survived as such for nearly 40 years.

Obviously I could improve some of these things if it were all that
important to me.

AT>To me, the $300 electric bill is a wake up call.

My electric bills hit over $500 this winter, but I get a bit of a rebate
so I think the highest was $425 or so..
