Wildfires smoke

Today the sky was so full of smoke due to the Az, Nv CO, Ca and NM fires, we couldn’t see any of the mountain ranges. Or maybe they just disappeared?

How do we sleep while our beds are turning, how do we sleep while our world is burning….勞

Projects waiting game and weather

We have many projects to achieve, but much of it is weather dependent. Forecast is showing rain for the next couple days. Which means we wait it out, don’t run much for electricity due to lack of sunlight. Once the new solar is up and finished, and new container is delivered. We’ll be able to do more of the work that isn’t weather dependent. But until then here we sit…

Hot Day on the Mesa

Nothing like sitting outside and enjoying the moonlight after a hot day!

We’re still having issues with getting the videos edited. Hopefully soon this issue will be resolved and we’ll be putting out videos regularly again!

We are still having issues with the solar system that the controller had gone out on.. So we are putting building the new system in overdrive. We’ve picked up the lumber for Phase 1 of the build!

Issues

We’ve been having phone and camera issues, which had been making it hard to release videos and post pictures. We are working on a solution and hopefully this issue will be resolved soon!

Update on our adventure!
We are in MN and will be enjoying our time with friends and family for another week, before heading back. Once back we are hoping to jump into building the new solar (will positive thoughts that the price of lumber will be lower)! We already have campers (#plateauhamedecolquhoun)booked for August (only a few spots left!) and looking forward to get back into the role of our modern Pioneerism!!! #modernpioneerism #artoftinyliving
