Publisher's Summary

The inspiring, true story of Anne Dodds.

When her husband passed away after a long, trying illness, Annie Dodds was forced to sell almost everything to settle his estate. Homeless, with little money, she wondered if it might be time to pursue a decades-old dream of living a quiet, self-sufficient life alone, off-grid. One day, when her son told her he knew of an old house on 50 acres, she knew it was time.

Feeling empowered and prepared by having read so much over the years, she loaded her belongings into the back of her pickup truck. But as she pulled into the driveway that first day, she could not imagine the challenges she would face, the obstacles she would overcome, the self-doubts she would master, and the soul-strengthening peace and contentment she would find living in a rundown old home on 50 acres of country heaven.

I really enjoyed Annie's story

I have often dreamed of living off grid, a cabin in the woods for solitude and peace. Annie's story of her off grid life was so honest, the hardships she faced, the ugliness and the beauty. What an incredibly strong woman!

Great information

I found this book very interesting in what she went through to live off grid and how she adapted many things to suit her needs.

I agree with her, “lots of people talk about going off grid and read books about doing it but have no clue what it actually translates into to Actually Doing It!”

Think about giving up all your conveniences so you leave no footprint, especially electronically with cell phones and computers.
