New cabinet front. In the background, you can see the previous open style. Now the dishes are closed off, preventing dust, animal dander and so forth from getting in and making a mess. It also gives things a much more clean, clutter-free look. My fellow off-gridder and newsletter friend over at
Good article, Charles. I know that fiddle player! That's Kendall Carson. She and her brother cut a song I pitched them back in the early Oughties here in Nashville. Small world, eh?
I'm going to take you up on that. I'll send you a list of email questions later this week. I've been wanted to get that started as a feature in my newsletter for some time now. Thank you.
John read your blog to me this morning while I made my coffee. What a wonderful surprise that you mentioned us and our "idiosyncratic" home. Thank you, Charles! That's the perfect word, isn't it? Idiosyncratic. Like so many off gridders :-)
I loved seeing your home, too. It's full of warmth and so welcoming. I especially love the floor to ceiling bookshelves and the comfy reading chair your dog allows you to share.
Our homes really are a reflection of our personalities and the things we enjoy. Thanks, again, Charles.
I owe you the the thank you, Greta, for the inspiration for this post. Like I wrote, what you said about off-grid homes not being turn-key really resonated with me and gave me the idea to write about. I really enjoyed seeing your place as well, and the way that you've fixed it to suit yourselves. Each home is very individualistic, isn't it?

That's awesome, Max. Small world, indeed. That would have come from an image I used for the story, so haven't met her. Thanks for reading, old friend.
I forgot to mention, we're open to any questions/conversation via email exchange, if you ever want to know more about our house, etc.

Sounds fun. :-)

Did you get appliances from that place in Ohio that sells DC fridges and stoves to Amish people?
Hey Ken: The appliances came with the house, so I'm not sure where they originated.
