I have a fish camp that has solar and a wood stove. A propane furnace for the cold months I'm not home. No air conditioning. Always have a large garden and can. When my girlfriends over the years have come over they are very weirded out at first I have only 2 bowls, 2 plates, 2 forks, basically 2 of everything utensil wise. Thats it. But then when dishes need to be down you dont have much to do!

I dont have anything in my "house" that I cant bring myself to throw away. I lived in 19 houses in 16 years so I was tired of always throwing away things I didnt use and didnt realize it until I was moving.
I became a minimalist out of frustration from moving so much.

If nothing else I save a lot of money and enjoy my days more than most because I dont have the typical "chores"

The one thing I really over indulge in is that I have 11 boats around the country. I hate trailering boats so when I see a 14ft lund or a jon boat thats cheap I'll pick it up and find cheap storage near where I want to fish.
Livin the dream.

Have to admit, imma little (lot) jeally.

I don't do well alone, scratches some kind of primordial itch killing stuff and dragging it home to the wife and family. Empty nest now, but gotta have my wife (best thing that ever happened to my worthless carcass)...and tho I would in a heartbeat, she ain't about to live in a fish camp. We're looking to cash out soon when I stop working for money, and move to much smaller digs on, or very close to a lake. Somewhere in Tennessee most likely.
