But no joke, you have to do these things or you end up like the Indians & local dysfunctional Whites who tend to live way out in the sticks. They live off salmon, caribou, moose, snared rabbits, porcupines, lynx ect. Personally, I can't do without bacon, chicken, lasagna, pork ribs, ect. You can sure live cheap out here, but not how I choose to do it.
We usually plant 300 lb seed tatoes, a lb of carrot seed, 1000 brocculli plants, ect. I could always survive if everything went to crap, but sure like my big screen, super fan, and center ice; so hope she all holds together. Wife and I are teachers, so our incomes are pretty safe if the dollar doesn't end up being worth a dime.
Also have a 1000 gal fuel tank as our local guy is 6 bucks/gal. We usually fly 20 sam's pizza's in every couple months, frozen and uncooked. When I do get into town, those golden arches are the first place I stop, boy I miss those big macs after a few months, and chinese.
Wife and I were originally from westmoreland co, pa. You from Tioga Co?
tioga? yes, but just across the border in NY.
