Wild Horses?! | Harvesting Firewood for OFF GRID Heat! + Homemade Alaskan Salmon Chowder...

#HomeFreeAlaska #OffGrid #Alaska
Usually it's MOOSE on our Alaskan homestead that we run into, but today, we have an unexpected visitor! With winter on the horizon shortly, we're focused on filling our wood shed with firewood as that's our source of heat in our off grid cabin. After a hard day's work, Joe surprised me with a delicious homemade salmon chowder! Thanks for joining us for another video, cheers!
