I would say along while. After season 2 is done, i would think Les would like to kick back for a bit.
And be with family.

DD your totally right. As we can clearly see this is not easy to film. like c'mon can u imagine straving yourself once a month for a week? Walking through hard terrirotry, risking animal attacks and etc?

I think les deserves time with his family for at least 1/2 year after this. AFter that they can mabey start shooting part 2 of OTG.

I just watched it on youtube and it was really good. I want to live off the grid now. And now I see it's possible without losing too much.

I enjoyed Off The Grid, and I think society is going to have to start heading in this direction.

but it still takes a lot of money, many families, including mine, just don't have it to get started switching over.

The thought of no power bill would be great but it would be even better to not have to pay high gasoline bills.

After watching OTG the 2nd time now, I am beginning to feel somewhat lazy compared to Les.

he is starting to set examples for my wife to see............

Les your going to have to pace yourself..........for the rest of us.

^ well the roof and gutter is a big rain catch. I guess if you could tap into that you'd get a lot of water.
