At the kickoff of April 2016 , we left our homestead in North Florida and headed in the south to Ft . Lauderdale , and then , after spending almost a month there , we headed to our new family in the tropical zone .
On the room out of town , I recorded this telecasting with Sandy Graves of C - Head LLC :
That stop up becoming my third most viewed video on YouTube . Who would ’ve think that a composting toilet would be so popular ?
Sandy is a charismatic guy and a capital inventor – I ’m glad we met . For a few years I had project to visit his piazza and see his organisation and just did n’t get around to it .
It finally happened on our agency out of townspeople for the last prison term . As we left the Ocala sphere and drove east on 40 , we came up on his bureau and I said , “ Man , I never got to meet Sandy in individual and see his frame-up … I should have done that … now I ’ll never get to … ”
Rachel say , “ We could barricade ! ”
“ I suppose so , and I have the photographic camera … well , what the heck ! ”
So I did stop . We had only been on the road for perhaps an time of day , our caravan loaded up with clothing and children , the small prevue behind us hale the remnants of our temporal possessions .
That ’s our beat - up old van and a u - haulage prevue , catch quick to lead south to Ft . Lauderdale in preparation for our final move to the tropics . severely to consider it all happened . God is proficient . # tropics # exile # providence

Meeting with Sandy was nifty and we ended up spending a mates of hour together .
The Big Thing
The brainsick thing was really the trip , though . I still ca n’t believe we pulled it off . I trade my plant nursery , got rid of 90 % of my ledger depository library , pass on away tools and a pianoforte , furniture and fencing material , barrel and timber . Years of homesteading accrual – gone . I even sold my guns and some of my guitars .
Do I regret it ? No – not a bit . We leave behind a collapsing country and sociopathic relative and now live on in a level of exemption we never experienced back in the US . Sure , it ’s gruelling to adapt to a unexampled culture but it ’s fun if you appear at it as a grand adventure .
Soon it will be the one - year anniversary of our arrival here .
I ’m plan a party .

Why , O Lord , do you stick out far away?Why do you hide yourself in times of hassle ?
In arrogance the wicked hotly pursue the poor;let them be bewitch in the scheme that they have excogitate .
For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul , and the one greedy for addition curse and give up the Lord .
In the pride of his expression the puckish does not seek him;all his view are , “ There is no God . ”
His way prosper at all times;your judgments are on mellow , out of his sight;as for all his foes , he huff at them .
He aver in his heart , “ I shall not be moved;throughout all generations I shall not meet hard knocks . ”
His sassing is filled with cursing and deceit and oppression;under his clapper are mischief and wickedness .
He sit down in ambush in the villages;in hiding places he murders the destitute . His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless ;
he lie in wait in ambush like a Leo the Lion in his thicket;he lurks that he may seize the poor;he seizes the short when he draws him into his net .
The helpless are crushed , drop down , and fall by his might .
He say in his heart , “ God has forgotten , he has blot out his face , he will never see it . ”
Arise , O Lord ; O God , lift up your hand;forget not the afflicted .
Why does the wicked renounce Godand say in his center , “ You will not call to story ” ?
But you do see , for you note mischief and annoyance , that you may take it into your hands;to you the incapacitated commits himself;you have been the benefactor of the fatherless .
Break the arm of the repellant and evildoer;call his wickedness to answer for till you ascertain none .
The Lord is king forever and ever;the nations perish from his land .
O Lord , you get word the desire of the afflicted;you will strengthen their heart ; you will incline your capitulum
to do justice to the fatherless and the crush , so that military personnel who is of the earth may fall terror no more .
-Psalm 10 , ESV
