For power we have a Honda 2000eu Inverter generator, handles all our needs, is quiet and sips fuel, I bet we use 5-7 gallons of gas each summer as we use it quite a bit. The spring and fall is when I wish we had power when the sun goes down early. We use a Sunmar compost toilet, much better than the propane burn toilets
You island dwellers are a special breed. I honestly don't think I could tolerate all the extra hassle that you put up with. And you say you don't even have electricity?
How would i be able to watch Dancing With the Stars?
