    Currently on Prime. Or I think most of it is on YouTube.

    Many of you would find it boring, but I find it fascinating.

      Cool. Will check it out. They did one a long while back about being a pioneer in Montana. Frontier house. Followed three modern day families, living like they would have then. It was fascinating. I seem to remember the judges said at the end that none of them would have survived the winter because they didn’t put enough firewood up.

        I watched it and really enjoyed it. I wished they had gone into more detail with some things though. My husband was so taken with the show that he suggested we buy a farm in the English countryside when we retire. I told him that the only thing I will ever hear him say is "Oh my back" and "Let's go to the pub."

          That type of life is hard work. I bet those farmers were eating 4000+ calories per day.

            If you've read "Undaunted Courage" about the Lewis and Clark expedition, that's not surprising. Those guys were apparently up to 5K calories per day.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
