Snowstorm! This changes everything! We were planning on pouring the concrete for our solar stanchion build but the snow has gotten in the way. We are changing course and going to make the best of the day by preparing the pad for our whole house Generac generator, attempting to get the truck unstuck, ripping the oil tank off our rental house and snow tubing with the kids!

We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while building our own off-grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.
Our house build is documented entirely on our main channel "Wild Wonderful Off-Grid". This channel is dedicated to short vlogs showing our life outside the build.

Thank you on behalf of all the firefighters for giving up your old rental house for live burn training. I was a firefighter for 35 years and there is nothing like a live burn to teach the younger and less experienced members of the department how to deal with a structure fire. Kudos to you guys!!!

One of my favorite quotes from Erin, "for all you hover parents, you won't like this and I don't want to hear about it in the comments." You go girl! We have three boys, and my husband pulls them behind the 4 wheeler in the field when we get a good snow in West Central MN. For our older boys it has been one of their favorite memories and stories. For our 13 year old, he always asks to do it still. You are always so fun to watch, and remind us of ourselves in how you interact with each other and handle the challenges of a DIY home build. Every Sunday morning we watch your videos, and you always make us laugh. And from a fire wife of 19 years to a local volunteer FF and 1st Responder, who is also the Training Officer as some of the previous commenters have said, your donation of the Rental House for a live burn training is critical, especially for rural volunteer departments who may see a higher turn over rate, and need anything that is brought to them for the training of new members. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I was in the fire department In a rural area. We would have house burns and a wonderful way a safety training. It’s a huge help in rural departments since it venally expensive to do controlled burns at fire academies, that’s if you can get time. Besides controlled burns such as your house are real life scenarios. I know it’s a total pain in the butt to prepared or a burn but it’s totally worth it. If you ask they may even let you hold the end of the pipe!

@dandaniels4558 3 жыл бұрын

Yes controlled burns are done a couple times a yr here where I live in NC my son is a captain at one dept and works part time at another dept and my son in law in associate chief at the same dept my son is captain and also works hos 24 hr job at another dept .so we get to see lots of controlled burns in my family and it's great training for them and of course all the rookies that really learn how it truly goes down in a house or structure fire. We as parents and grand parents see just how dangerous it is for them when there called out on structure fires for real .very scary. My son was at an old mobile home fire and had to go in with his partner and my son stepped past a wall and strait through the floor and caught his arm on a short wall and dislocated his shoulder joint and tore his rotator cuff and was off work for 8 months in 2020 .luckily therapy twice a week solved it with no surgery. Thankful for that and hes back at it at both depts now and doing great but I worry about him and my son in law all the time . Couldn't be prouder of both of them.
