Jacob Goes Off Grid Day 35 Part 1

in #offgrid6 years ago


This is a video from Day 35 of going off-grid. I went 'off grid' five hundred and eighty days ago and it has been quite the journey since I got dropped off at this old fallow farm and built (continue to build) all my own infrastructure. I have been video documenting the entire process and have just recently begun publicly sharing some of the videos. I have been sharing the videos privately since I started the entire process which I call Jacob Goes Off Grid In The Woods. 'Day 1' is the morning after I arrived at this little place in the mountains in the 'dead of winter' on January thirteenth of two thousand and seventeen with my dogs, my wits, minimal gear and very little hard currency to work with. Slowly I have done my best to breathe life into a very old farm and give it all my best, 'learning as I go', and documenting the process as best I can. It has been quite the journey so far. @jacobpeacock

This is another fireside video. In this video I talk about finally going to a dentist and getting the tooth that was bothering me extracted. I do not think that I mention in the video that the dentist determined that there was indeed an infection in my mouth from the tooth.

I talk about how I was planning to buy antibiotics for fish from a 'farm supply store' but it was unnecessary because the dentist wrote me a prescription for some.

I talk about always keeping a pair (or two) of 'dress' clothes for use in case of what I call 'death or doctors' which means for funerals or going to a doctor.

I talk some about the importance of teeth and the difficulties caused by not being able to chew food properly.

I talk about the affects of all the pain and inflammation of tooth pain and how it can really get in the way of thinking clearly.

This video gets cut short for some reason.

As always this is just a summary of the video's content and not meant to explain everything that I cover in the video.
