This actually explained a lot about what you are trying to do and I think it's pretty cool.

I recommend seriously considering a small wood stove instead of a firepit. You want ambiance right? Well you can use your wood stove as a stove to heat water for tea or hot toddy's, or warm cookies something. It's much more functional than an open firepit.

Edit: Here are a few options for you to check out.

It's very important. Living quarters must have the door facing south. Since the GroverTruk's made of metal, you're gonna wanna make the bed out of stone, etc.

I dont have anything in my GroverTruk bedroom except my bed. I live a minimalist life style. In the closet space all I have is a couple bins of tools, a creeper, and my sway bar I haven't reattached yet from when I was working on my suspension. (This will get reattached soon tm)

Later it will have a clothes rack. Maybe some books above the battery cabinet waiting for the an electrical fire to burn them all up. Who knows.

Right now I just shower at whereever I plug in for power. I rent a room at my boss's house that I've all but moved out of. After that I will shower at planet fitness until I figure out what to do with the murderhaus. I want a detached shower house, but state codes wants the shower integrated. Sounded like cubic Sucrose was going to look into that.

It is currently sitting over a pit. The county wanted the previous guy to abandon them in like 2014 (i imagine this one was last dug prior to 2009 before the then existing church burnt down). There is a second one on the property hence the two TimberShitters on the map. The leaves are covering the 6 foot slab.. There is also a cracked third base that someone tried to throw into the creek behind the house. I dont have to dig a new pit until the feces reach 18inch below the surface.

First off, you’re sitting on brown gold. You should see if local farmers would be interested in buying it for fertilizer.

Second, what do you mean the church burned down in 2009 ? How could you leave out that part of the story?

There is too much story to tell without writing a novel. I have to give it out one piece at a time. But yeah the reason the land has remnants of ancient shitters was there was originally a church that was built there in the late 50 to early 60s. So it originally had a men's and women's outhouse. Aerial photographs suggest the church burnt down in 2009. Either from someone burning bamboo in a fire stove, lovely electrical, or arson because the property owner wanted a large house on it.

Oh. Well originally they were going to be thai yoga Matt's so I could just sit them in the bedroom of stack them in the closet. Now the idea is fold chairs I can just put in the closet. For the grill, I can just pick it up and wedge/strap its legs to the wooded stringers on the walls.

This took some digging through my tinder and bumble profiles since I buried my last phone at the beach and lost it and all the good pictures I had of my boats, so I only have a few of me sailing. So here we go with some extras.


So this is the Seacat. It is a flat back canoe that I quickly turned into a sailboat after I discovered water and boating when I came down from the rural mountainous foot hills of West Virginia to the beautiful coastal plains of North carolina. This is not my SHTF boat.


This is me relaxing while sailing in the Seacat.


This is me taking a sailing course at the yacht club near the land of MurderHaus.


This is the Seven Seas. I dont have any sideviews of the boat unfortunately as I never fell overboard, and I dont have my helicopter yet. There are technically three places I can sleep in the Seven Seas and it has a kitchen and a place to put a 5 gallon bucket when I dont feel like making GBS threads in the sea.

Random other tid bits I found on the photo search.


This is an aquaponics experiment with rice that iwas doing for a Mars Society research group i found.
