My wine is not going to last long now that I’m playing the game 🍷😄
🤣
You're right Amanda that's terrifying. Contractors fees would be even more terrifying. Lincoln bless you for working so hard and smart.
😵💫 Yes, so expensive!
I truly adore this channel 🙂, it brings me much needed joy and it’s actually stress relieving for me. I wish you guys had more hands on deck, the work load must be tremendous. Never the less you are both doing an amazing job, thank you for sharing the journey with us. Much love from California.
Oh, thank you so much! So very nice to hear you're enjoying our channel :)
It’s fascinating viewing as you tear apart and delve into the actual construction methods from centuries ago. Lincoln’s sweat equity is truly priceless.
You are doing a great job....so amazing how these beams/floors were made, all so interesting. You appear to be up to the challenge and look forward to what is next. I like the way you are opening up this space, it will make such a difference for the look and the living. Well done!!
Thanks :)
Lincoln is quite impressive. What a job he's tackling! Thanks for sharing!!
Seeing through the floor and balancing on the beams is scary for sure. As someone afraid of heights I could never walk on them.
I think apple wood smells good when burned. Love your humor, your animals, and your chateau. Sure cider was good,shake trees .
I enjoyed this video except the demo of the old bathroom was going well for me but when the floor was gone, well it scared me to death. Wow!! I will be so thrilled for you when a new floor is installed. I do hope that will happen soon! You do have some apples. Love all of your animals.....precious. You are a fun lady. Thanks!!!
So happy Lincoln will have help. Love Waffle! It's looking good. Love all your animals! ♥️. Good luck with the cidar!
My parents used to say renovations stand for ‘one thing leads to another’. Glad you have some help coming with those big beams
You make me laugh 😂. Always love your videos.
Thanks 😁
Take care of your back Lincoln. Glad you have someone coming to help with the bathroom. Waffle was too cute. I had no wine to drink so I had coffee. Try and video some of the cider making. We had one in my hometown in Connecticut. The best cider ever. It is still there. I miss NE this time of year. Stay safe and hugs to your animals.
Thanks Diana! Where in CT? That's where I grew up...
Your pets love you both and are their wherever you two are for emotional support!
A little trick when picking anything from a tree. After picking up from the ground lay tarps or sheets. Take a poll to shake the limbs or my dad would take the chain off of his chainsaw and put it up to different sections of the tree the vibrate the food off. We had pecan trees that we had a device that wrapped around the trunk of the tree and the vibration would make them come down. We only had one and 10 acres of pecan trees so there were lots of all 3 methods used.
Oh I am loving waffle they are a little filmstar ( he ? She ?)
I remember those days well with no floorboards when my house was being rewired with two Mad toddler boys and a new baby utter madness I wish you luck ! Thanks for sharing ❤
Lincoln, you need to just pat yourself on the back for all the hard work you have done.👏🏻👏🏻
Your videos are fun to watch & always make me laugh. I look forward to them. Do your kids know you are RUclipsrs? I'm guessing yes. It's good that Lincoln is fixing the bathroom floor properly. Your home is livable (the other parts) so he might as well take the time. No fun having only one bathroom for now though.
Thanks - glad you like them! Yes, our kids know, they just don't want to be on camera :)
I love to see what you're doing. It may be a huge struggle now but you'll be so thrilled with what you have when it's finished.
I need to count my blessings. Rot in the structural timbers was one thing I didn't have to face on my own renovation.
You make 'take down the ceiling' sounds so easy......amazing work, great videos. Thanks.
Everything you share is wonderful!!
Thank you so much!
Lincoln does so much I don’t think he can add yoga to his plate. He does need a good chiropractor! Do they have those in France? Amanda! You always crack me up. Glad your subscribers are picking up. I tell everyone about you. 🥰
Thanks Rhonda :) Haha - I don't think he's the yoga type anyway...
The mess has started. Good job Lincoln. Waffle certainly loves to be with you. Those apples look lovely.
Funny intro! I feel bad for Lincoln taking on that Reno and you for having to patiently wait for its completion! Kudos to you both; it’s a good thing you’re young!
😂
You should work like I've been doing in picking up my pinecones. I've been using a folding chair, sitting on it in order to pick them up off the ground. Also using a lawn rake to pull them to me with the bag sitting next to me to put them in.
When I was a kid my father would take me & my siblings to a local orchard to pick apples. Then we’d head into their barn, which smelled SO good, to buy fresh cider. I really miss the cider. I’d love to taste your cider.
But you do have a ghost! 👻(episode 5, 12:20) And he was quite the gentleman opening a door for you. Happy Halloween!
Will have to check this one.
Ooh, I forgot 👻😵💫
I am so glad that Lincoln is getting help to do the bathroom. That is a very big job. The apple cider would be very interesting. Waffle is very cute. Half brownface and half a white face.
Thank you so much for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all. Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
Thanks Doris :)
I've never heard "we had to take down the ceiling" said so calmly. My husband watched and was muttering "oh sh*t!!" Loving the behind the scenes on Patreon too!! I'm 100% in on the Waffle drinking game
Thanks Erin!
I’m sure it will be lovely when finished, but Lincoln walking on those beams is causing me great anxiety!
“Waffle Pants”🐾🐾…five sightings today, I think!! I don’t remember the names of the other fur babes, but always a tickle to see them. Great job Lincoln on the bathroom floor! Amanda, love your humor. Hope the apple yoga goes well!That is the biggest bag I have ever seen🍏.
That is the number I got, also.
I thought Waffle Pants was the outdoor/barn kitty?
@Diana Ford That would be Mimi :)
@@OurFrenchChateau I had a feral barn kitty named Mimi (from Midnight via child’s mouth). Mimi eventually joined the other house cats and enjoyed a dream cat’s life. 🥰😸
That enormous bag looks big enough to hold about 100+ buckets.......have fun! Cider is very good thirst quenching drink.
Lincoln does do a lot of hard labor but Amanda your gardens and wood stacking skills aren’t too shabby either.😊 Also love your pets!
How come Lincoln is so cool calm and collected when I saw the bathroom /floor I nearly had a nervous break down. Then yea both walked on beems with no safty net. The dogs and cats and donkeys calmed me down. See you all next week.
Thanks Miriam :)
You do make me laugh. Good luck with the renovation
Thanks 😁
I have to admit that Lincoln is great at demolition, but he is also good at cleaning up. Not sure if the time lapse filming always shows how long the process was.... No wonder there's so many outside loos in France's out buildings. They're needed during renovation.
He is good at cleaning up! (not the kitchen 😂) I think it took him two hours...
I'm excited about the cider-making narrative arc
qué gran trabajo!. Aunque , en realidad sólo estoy viendo todos los vídeos de este canal por los gatos. Son un amor.
Don't let a little rain stop you 🤣
Oh I’m so happy Lincoln will have a knowledgeable assistant to help continue this bathroom project. Also, Lincoln needs to wear a back support. PS. Take some Aleve too😍
Once you start such a project and start to take the outer layers away of such an old place all kind of nasty things seems to appaer! Very frightening indeed!Good luck in putting it back together again!
What a wonderful way to make cleanup easy. Plastic sheeting! You guys are wonderful.
Thanks :)
Good luck with the apple picking
Lincoln is a gem. He tackles very difficult jobs, hurts his back and still smiles. Thank goodness the deteriorated beams were discovered before renovating a beautiful bathroom and have the weight of the tub fall through the ceiling. Yikes! I’m glad he has someone helping. The cats, dogs, donkeys are so cute and seem very, very happy. Enjoy apple cider making. Maybe your kids and their friends can pick the apples off the ground. Better than you hurting your back too. xx
Thanks Stephanie :) Yes, the kids have been ordered outside to help me 🤣
I really enjoy your videos! I appreciate your humor.
Glad you like them!
What a monstrous task that floor!
🔥🔥🔥Renovation
Thank you Lincoln for all your back breaking work! I love your chateau!
I just love your channel. 😂 Love all the work you are doing!
Thanks Kate!
BE CAREFUL you guy's!! Appreciate you two, sending you *love & hugs*
Good job for kids...picking up apples!
Always enjoyable! Love the drinking game😀
Glad you enjoyed it
All your animals have the cutest personalities!
Watching from the USA!
Love to see the dogs
Fabulous job!
Thanks :)
Wow...that bathroom looks like a nightmare but I am sure it will be lovely. Where does Lincoln get all his energy? I need a Lincoln in my life. Renovation in LA is insanely expensive. All the best!!
Loved this one too❤
Thanks :)
Definitely scary! I worry for Lincolns safety. Happy Halloween.🎃
Apple's , the recipes are endless and so are the Apple's lol ... Beautiful job of removing roof , take care I'd you're back its better to take a few weeks off than not been able to do anything for months ... Looking forward to seeing it all come together .. ps Waffles my coffee is hot lol
Lincoln is a Marvel. Amazing COMBO you two make. I adore his nonchalant tude … I would have arrhythmia.
Adore your vlog. When y’all finish this, I’d like to pop over for a visit.
Thanks! We'll be here ;)
🤩 Really love your channel! You’ve got the most beautiful, sort of manageable chateau with the best outbuildings and a excellent walled garden (my dream, together with the orchard). The calmness, down to earth and neat approach of renovating is so nice to watch!
If you ever get bored, or you will replace some of the fruit trees, it’s perhaps nice to sow a wild flower mixture at the grassland of your orchard and plant some self spreading bulbs. It provides a wonderful habitat for insects (beneficial for fruit production), looks magical and will be mowed before fruit picking season. The donkeys will appreciate the herby and flowery hay it makes!
Thanks for making such lovely vlogs about your wonderful château!
(new subscriber ...) interesting to see how the joists were constructed, even more so when you think what tools etc they had at the time, thanks for sharing cheers
Welcome!
Great progress. Hope you get some cider!!
Me too!
Please do not use hangars! Just modify the socket with a dovetail and enter the beam from above.
I live in Brittany and did this in my house. The joinery is simple.
I love your dry humour❤️ yes, you guys are in a construction zone at the moment, but everything will turn out great and make your lives so much more liveable. Kind animal lovers and you both just simply “go with the flow”!🥰🇨🇦
thanks
We have a similar rotten bathroom floor and I have given up (in my husband's words nagging) reminding him that one evening, not too long in the distant future, while having a nice relaxing bath one of us will end up in the hall. His response is 'It won't be me as I have showers'
🤣 Good luck!
You guys need a Kawasaki Mule. I had one and I love it.
So FUNNY! Sweet Waffle.
Enjoyed the spooky reno 👻 good job on the Reno.I would have pulled the bathroom walls downstairs first and the château would have collapsed on me 😂
😂
I love your chateau, although you have so much work to do it will be beautiful in the end. I bet you are relieved to have opened up the floor yourselves, a wise move in this case, a sound floor in your bathroom will now last a lifetime. Yoga is great for back pain, worth doing. Enjoying your vlogs and the animals 🥰
Oh I do love a drinking game. Waffles is adorable as well as your other fur babies. I do hope the bathroom renovations goes smoothly. Such a huge undertaking. Really enjoy your vlogs and sense of humor. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Thanks Rosemarie :)
Heeeeeere's Lincoln, that is a great Idea to cover the stairs to the basement, the hall and guest room are coming together nicely, and I have no doubt Lincoln will finish that bathroom. Love from N.Y.
Haha! Thanks :)
😂 wafflepants !
Does Lincoln have a construction background or do you all consult an engineer on all the structural projects? You all have a beautiful place and enjoy seeing your progress.
This may be difficult to explain, but hear in the UK we have joist extensions made of galvanised steel that bolt onto the ends of rotted joists. You cut the rot off the bolt on the new metal extension.... You could do the same thing with say 1cm thick steel plate. Treat the rot and coach bolt/ lag bolt or use threaded metal bar to secure the plate steel. You can buy side drive drills that will easily fit between the joists... Just a thought, keep up the good work!!!!
I really hope you got sone help with picking all those apples and that Lincoln's back has got better. x
Your husband is a very strong man!
Scary project!! 😦
Not nearly enough Waffle sitings for a good buzz , disappointing. Great to see bathroom progress.
Truly scary stuff!
Waffle is adorable and clearly wants to be a RUclips star. 😄 when you said 60 more buckets, I had 2 thoughts: 700 more buckets LOL and how on earth will you get that giant bag of apples moved? Ok. I know. 700 is an exaggeration but hope you will tell us how many. Next week will have a drink ready for the Waffle game. Cheers
🤣 🐈
Lincoln is fabulous! Love his hard work mixed with his cool demeanour. Just one thing if you don’t mind, why is the film jolty? Editing?
The bathroom sure is turning into a big job, thank goodness you have help. I felt a bit daunted for you with that big bag of apples to gather up...I hope the cider is good. I am not sure about the Waffle drinking game, you might have a lot of drunk subscribers and some weird comments.
❤
💛💛
Lovely video, thank you 😊 hope Lincoln’s back recovers well! Like with any renovation, once you start you uncover all kinds of damage but you will have an amazing bathroom at the end, one that will last another 100 years! I admire your hard work and thank you for sharing. Cider making will be interesting 😊 I love seeing how solid the beams are, there’s a level of security with that, knowing that your home (once your work is done) will stand for many more years. 😊😊
Wish you would vlog more xo. Did you expect to restore to the extent you are - ie removing floor boards
I can only drink one small glass of wine before feeling the effects. If I drank a sip every time I saw your kitty I’d be passed out drunk! Very funny.
😂🐈
GREAT VLOG, to change the wood in the bathroom looks like a big job, are you sure about it, ask for 2 opinion. best wishes to you
Hahaha!!! I really laughed at your comment that the ghosts maybe haunted back, or sorry, you said confused because you speak English? Love your humour. How far is the apple picking? Can't wait to see that bag full. Maybe the ghosts will feel sorry for you and decide to fill the bag? Haha!
So excited to see how the bathroom and the room below it turns out , as you progress along with the renovation!
Those donkeys need a job....a couple of deep baskets to help haul those apples......they would love!..
Lincoln is doing a great job on the bathroom floor, it seems to me most of the damage to these beautiful chateaus is caused by water & of course in France wood worms. Love all those beautiful apples, you can freeze or can the apples to use throughout the year in pies, cobblers & of course jams or jellys. God Bless, Kathy 🇺🇸
I like watching your vlogs….you have a slightly different formatt……and that keeps my attention…I subscribe to lots of chateaux and it can get a bit boring ….good luck with the bathroom project
Thanks so much :)
Sante Miss Waffle!
I don’t think he has time for yoga! Hahaha
Beam yoga! My recommendation is lots of sizes of ice packs in the freezer
Lincoln I don't know what the term is but could you "z" notch to join the new beam to the good part of the old beam!
With a Bordeaux Red, we thoroughly enjoyed the Waffle sightings. Beautiful cat(s). Looks like the reno is in full swing. Winter will pass quickly being so involved in the project. Thanks for another great vlog.
Many thanks! 🍷
