DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OFF-GRID AND SELF SUFFICIENT HOMESTEADING
Definition of "Off-Grid": Off-the-grid or off-grid is a characteristic of buildings and a lifestyle designed in an independent manner without reliance on one or more public utilities. The term "off-the-grid" traditionally refers to not being connected to the electrical grid, but can also include other utilities like water, gas, and sewer systems, and can scale from residential homes to small communities.
Self-sufficient homesteading means needing no outside help in satisfying one's basic needs, especially about the production of food, and homesteading means living a lifestyle of self-sufficiency. So by those definitions, the key to homesteading is learning to be self-sufficient.

Hi James, yeah this is really a great tent (Big Horn III) and hope Cabela's decides to start making it again. I really love sitting by the stove when it's snowing cooking breakfast, reading a book, or listening to a good podcast. Living like this has restored my eagerness for life. If you're interested in checking out some other winter tents then I'd recommend Ellis Tents out of Durango and Snowtrekker Tents out of Wisconsin. Both are solid companies. Thanks for tuning in ~ Brian

Would burning coal have any benefit as far as output and time of burn?
So sorry about Sierra having cancer! I've had 2 over the last 20 years that had cancer. The Vet couldn't do anything for either of mine except make them as pain free as possible. I pray they can help Sierra. I'll pray for Sierra. God bless.
Your Videos are so relaxing. I’m Originally from Rhode Island and my favorite time of year is the winter because it’s so beautiful by the ocean and so very quiet. You can really hear your thoughts. I would really enjoy being out in nature. Your dog is so sweet.
I love these camping days when the weather has a bite, there's snow on the ground and falling, and I'm well-prepared for several days with ample food, water, and warmth. It's so quiet you can hear the snow falling outside. Surrounded by whiteness, just a bit of moonlight brightens everything, casts eerie shadows, and reminds me of how incredibly fortunate and insignificant I am compared to the immensity and perfectness of nature. I ache a bit when I see these videos bit I do love them so.

Praying for Precious Sierra to get the medical care she needs and to fully recover from the cancer and continue to live a happy and well-loved life.

Please let us know how Sierra is. We can tell you love her and she loves you, so we know you would get treatment for her, if it is going to save her life.
So glad you found these videos Brian! Happy to see snow to cool me off. Sending you & Sierra lots of hugs and love!!❤️
That's a nice little one man one dog tent! That's how I would camp.
The most important part of your life is Sierra ♥️♥️💕♥️💕💕💕💕💕♥️💕♥️♥️💕💕💕♥️💕 the whole blog is incomplete without her ... absolutely love her 💕♥️💕🧡😚🧡😚🧡😚🧡😚🧡😚
Nothing like having three days worth of groceries and no place to go!
Glad to see you eating well, and even happier to see your sweet pup! 💜🐶
Hi. I love to watch your films - I find it so relaxing. Thankyou for posting them. Here in England we have some undeniably beautiful countryside, with a rich history. However, I feel that our American friends have far greater access to 'wild' unpopulated areas. I really enjoy watching you make the most of your right to roam and camp on public lands. You live in an amazing country Sir.

I agree. I live in Essex about 12 miles from London, and we have nothing so wild anywhere close, dispelled having some really pretty countryside within a shortish drive.

I love sierra she’s such a sweet girl, you’re dog can be all you need at times that’s for sure
The tent, the food, your dog , the snow it all look great.
When I saw you put Avocado on the eggs I thought “man just a little bit of ….and there it was ….salsa !!

Its just been me and my dog for past 6years wouldn't change it 4anything, best friend ever.
Enjoyed the video very much. Easy to sleep with snow hitting the tent. Cool dogs too.
Always love the snow videos. I'm glad you found this!
When I was younger I spent a year living in a tent with a good friend. That was the time when Michigan had some pretty harsh winters. _At 64, I wouldn't want to do it again, but it wasn't all that bad. Sort of like camping, except we had to go to work every day._
I love your life and your beautiful love for Sierra thank you for sharing🙏💞😇
My kind of life style. I'm jealous. I'm ready to sell the house,get a dog and go camping for the rest of my life. Then I would be perfectly content.

Do it. It's good for the soul. I sold my house in April and spent all summer living in my truck. It's Alaska so it's probably easier than in most places I would imagine, but the freedom from a mortgage and utility bills has been amazingly therapeutic. I still work a regular job, shower in campgrounds or occasional hotels. Sounds ghetto to some people but I wouldn't trade this for grid-life again for anything.

Camping in a Tent with your Dog is the best Thing in the World you can do...

This is my dream. I have a 6 year old Doberman. Very sweet but very protective as well. Im in Phoenix so I would like to go to Colorado, Minnesota then Alaska with her.
I lived in a 22ft Sioux tipi for 3yrs in Colorado,,,,loved it,,,,,miss it
California lady popping in..its been over 100 here...Friggen Love the Snow videos....I'm excited for winter 👍🤗👍 Hi Sierra....she's a cuddly one mmuuuaaah! 😘
I love n hug my cat all the time Love the Scenery! Your Breakfast looks good!
Everything tastes better when it's cooked in the wild. What a lucky dog.😋
Always so relaxing to watch your videos
Looks so cozy!
It reminded me a cabin in the Appalachian Mountains. The best part was drinking hot wine with apples and spices and watching the sunset.
Nice bill burr plug! A great comedian. I'm a fussy eater. Eggs, yes. Bacon, yes! That's it. I tried sweet potatoes when I was invited to my one and only thanksgiving. Tastes too much like turnip. Great scenery, great dog! No wonder she loves you with that kind of back door. If I was able to do that my sons dog would never want to leave me 😋
Having had a death experience your animals also live on,on the other side Hope it will be sometime before she goes! Thanks and may THE LIGHT be with u!
Looks so cold... Pretty whites snow though.. nice stove there.. love the red..food looks good..
many years ago at elk camp, and the 2nd year with our big wall tent (GP medium which is 16x32) we had half of it collapse due to wet snow. We didnt have a ridge pole for it. Had to sew up a few holes on site and the next year we had a very stout ridge pole. Never another problem. I loved when we got heavy snow and couldn't go anywhere for several days. Now I just have a Davis tent 10x12 which is perfect for one or two people. And a wood stove of course.
Love the RC action !!
Use to have an old GP medium Tent from the army with a woodstove, Used that for hunting and even winter time Medieval events that dang stove about roasted us at times even when it was -10f outside lol.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 and thanks to you and Sierra for sharing 💪🏿✌🏿❤️💯
Ahh winter need it...We love it! keep em coming Brian 😎💪
Hi!!!! I have missed you guys, especially the little lady💕💕💕been playing catch up. Stay safe Brian you and that beauty Sierra....
Subscribed today. Enjoy you and your girl. Thanks for sharing.
Thought you weren't going to do much winter camping. Glad to see it. Don't wear yourself to a frazzle, my friend. None of us are exactly spring chickens anymore. Watch out for your health. Praying for you for wisdom.
I love how you love your dog 🐕 💕💕💕
Its always feels good to see your videos
I cant say it enough--I love that tent!!
Soooo very comfy and cozy💝
Seriously, why would you want a house after seeing this… Man, nothing like being outdoors in a snow storm, peace and tranquillity.

Couldn't imagine living anywhere else. Very nice set up, great to see the stove working great and the much needed moisture!
This setup just oozes with cozyness. Just relaxing to watch. Well I hope you enjoy your nomad trip up to South Dakota. I live here and I absolutely love it. Hope to see some more great winter camping vids in the future.
