Day 33 - Rv
We decided to take a day trip today! We headed over to Columbus, Tx. There is an off the grid store. It is called Industrial Country Market. The store is a "non general general store". The store is 95% solar powered and 5% back up generator. They have a green house with Hydroponic gardens, an art gallery, the store and more. You can even use their composting toilets! It was a very fascinating place! We really enjoyed the water catching systems they use for rain water and they hydroponic gardens. We hope to try our hand at that when we get to the land. It was a fun day trip so if you are in the area be sure to check it out!

That looks like a fun place. And the bowling looked fun too! We will have to do that sometime when you are here or we are there. I think you guys are enjoying this "homless" vacation! LOL! Glad you are having fun now...your work will begin soon at the new place but you will love doing it. Hope it gets started before long. Love to all! Mom and Dad
