By "wilderness" I mean no tv or internet. I do have crab pots, fishing rods, an almost working boat, a kegerator, and yes, a torque wrench.

Where I live, 'wilderness' means no communication whatsoever, and not seeing another person for up to a week...

Trust me, achris knows what wilderness is. I live in the middle of the Mojave desert. Compared to Western Aulstrailia, that's like being in a back yard.
Hope to get to your part of the world soon achris.
