    Hi Everyone! We are aware that there is a very slight sound to video delay. We believe it was caused during export from the hard drive we were using to edit over 20+ hours of video footage. We have attempted to upload this video to RUclips 4 different times, each with a different sound misalignment result. Each upload has taken approximately 15 hours over satellite internet. We have a new hard drive on the way and hope that remedies the issue. We appreciate your patience!

It is so important a man not let his woman overextend her physical capabilities even if she insists she can handle it, which I see way too often here on utube. Respect, for that. And Katie your job site demeanor and skills are equally admirable thank you for all your camera work, beautiful scenic shots and you nailed it with that curious moose- hurrah for the guard goats! Lol.

About the home, It is great, there are a lot of small details that you can change or make better when doing it yourself vs contracted out. Also not too big of a deal to make changes and improvements on the fly this way. It's a learning experience and challenging but can't wait to see the finished results one day.
