All I see are opportunities. Lots of materials to be repurposed. Trash is easily picked up. Most importantly, it's yours to do with as you see fit. It looks like a great start to a fruitful existence. We all have to start somewhere. I look forward to watching your updates and progress. I consider you a very lucky man.

Thank you so much, I am very lucky to have a chance to start there. I'm not as brave as you to start out in a tent, but I'm gonna give my best other than that. :)
Brave or stupid, depends on who you ask, haha. You are absolutely gonna love it. Every single thing you do from here on out, you'll be able to see progress. You'll lay down at night exhausted and it'll never feel so good.
One tip I'll give ya' depending on your set up there, is to build a (no dig) composting outhouse before you do a single thing. That small pleasure will take you a long way. If you need any specifics, give a holler.
Yes, most people think I'm crazy stupid, but at least I'm not alone in that. :)
Great tip, I'm going to do a wood framed composting toilet with a 5 gallon bucket inside it first thing, and use a compost pile to dump it into. Sawdust in the bucket over it, and then hay over it in the compost pile. Shouldn't smell if I do it right. There's a YouTube channel that I'll model mine after - Off Grid with Doug and Stacy - they've been using that system for 4 years now. I've got a hay source, and should be able to get sawdust without much trouble.
