Widow faces eviction for ‘living off the grid’
‘Where is the justice? Why did they choose me’
Imagine making the choice to live without modern amenities, such as running water and electricity.
Widow Robin Speronis of Cape Coral, Fla. is among the growing number of Americans who happily embrace this “alternative lifestyle” known as “living off the grid.”
Robin doesn’t have a refrigerator, oven, running water, or electricity at her modest home.
Most of what she owns was free, donated, or bought for next to nothing.
She cooks on a propane camping stove, and her electronics run on solar-charged batteries.
And when Robin needs water, she collects it in rain barrels and uses a colloidal-silver generator to disinfect it.
“My message was to create, so I created a happy place… a place where I get up, and I’m like this is beautiful,” she told WFTX-TV in Fort Myers, Fla.
Unfortunately for Robin, her decision to talk to a local TV station about off-the-grid living put her on the radar of the city of Cape Coral.
The very next day, authorities tacked a notice to vacate the property on her door, despite the fact she owns her home free and clear and is up-to-date on her taxes.
