My deer camp is so far off the grid that clocks don't work. There's a cell phone tower on the mountain top where I'm located, but I'm not sure how to get streaming TV/internet access.

Instead, we go outside, start a fire, talk, drink beer and count the stars. We can't see the stars back home because of all the city lights, but we can upon the mountain. It's better than re-runs.

Maybe there's some 4 G solution for you to try, good luck.

I have satellite, and I wasn't the one asking the question either, but thanks.

You are right, star gazing is such an experience that far too many no longer can enjoy. If we turn off all of the lights we can see them perfectly

Also you have the right attitude, get away from the TV & internet when at a rural home for short periods of time. Otherwise, you might as well have stayed at your primary home and sell the vacation home, because you are not utilizing it right in the first place.

That’s my kind of living. Can’t wait for camp.

Since I’m not the “boss” in this situation, I have to present a lower cost option to unhook the other house from a stupid dual contract in order to get my freedom. I don’t mind going off grid on vacations, but I don’t get any vacations. :) And the seniors like to get their texts and watch tv sometimes.
