Don’t loose your view! You love watching the animals . You’ll loose so much enjoyment. You have other options!
Very true! Thank you 😊 ❤️
Agree
Keep your view! Your garden is already working so well for you and feeds your body...the view feeds your soul.
What I hear from you is... you really don't want to obstruct the views of animals, birds, plants, and trees. All of it speaks to your heart. It is your love language. ❤️ I dont think you really want a tunnel. At least right now. Thanks for all you share with us!
Don't give up your view. It makes you happy. I would wait until I really wanted a tunnel. If the tunnel takes away from your freedom to change up your garden as you want and the animals want, then I think you would be unhappy. Your garden is so free and easy. Gary's is more like jungle. Both great and fascination, but different styles.
Well said ❤ Thank you
My valley and mountains view nourishes my spirit daily. Don't give it up. Put your tunnel by the parking lot. You have room there and it will green up that space.
😻 No! Don’t block that beautiful view.
Thank you ❤
The view and deer are too important and give you so much pleasure. I'd wait, think and watch how things go along.
Noooo. I wouldn't cover up your gorgeous hill & critter views. Putting a tunnel in your driveway sounds great.
Agree!
I am now thinking in the back just off the bird garden
Thanks❤
Keep the view you love and put the tunnel near the parking area. Your garden is looking good!
I would put a tunnel in the driveway area, and keep my million dollar view!! Peace and blessings ✝️
Keep your view I live in Montana and even have a bear that visits. I love watching the dear and turkeys and all the birds hummingbirds included. I only have a couple acres but my views bring me such peaceful joy. KEEP your view😊
Honestly, I can’t remember why this ever came up. Maybe it was when you saw Gary’s tunnel. That space is absolutely beautiful and it fits well in his space. I’m voting with the majority of us - sit down, watch the birds and enjoy the view. You can always change your mind in the future. Also, absolutely love the clips of the wildlife. Thank you for all you and Gary and share with us.
You completely enjoy nature and animals. I would. perserve your little piece of heaven because you appreciate it daily. You have a lot of driveway. As long as you can still move around I would probably choose a spot there. It suits your lifestyle and appreciation of observing wildlife. Thank you for all you do for planys, animals and us.
Don’t mess up a good thing! I think you like what you have here. Your view is awesome. Don’t mess it up. There’s got to be other places to put it.
I say WAIT!!!!!!!! WAIT....annnnnd OMG ....SHUT that GATE!!! Before the emu's or the Yorkie get out!!!
That rhymes. Mostly.
😅 Thanks❤
Keep the view, lose part of the parking area!
Definitely Keep your view , keep search the perfect spot will come to you when the time is right , if you are struggling with it the time isn't right
No, keep your little piece of heaven. Put it on the parking lot. It will add to that area nicely. It all is beautiful. 💗💗🐦🐦🦋🦋
Tough decision Robbie. I love your hill views. Sometimes I freeze frame and explore your hills. They are many times lush and beautiful. But I have a tunnel covered in seedless grapes and milkweed vines (volunteer). I put orange halves in there and a hummingbird feeder. The birds love the protection in the tunnel. How do you keep both, that amazing view spot and the benefits of a tunnel?? I’m with you, let’s see what others suggest.🌵🌸🐾Zoe🐾🫎
keep your view robbie! you clearly love it and it brings you joy. you have such a beautiful property, spread your ideas throughout it and maybe entertain the parking lot like you mentioned? I thought that was a wicked good idea/compromise and it will provide a new special place for new memories in a location you otherwise would not have spent much time in.... many blessings to you and Gary.
Hi Robbie. I would not loose the view of the dear. Keep your favourite spot. The driveway sounds like a good idea for the tunnel. You are so lucky with that view, wish I had a view like that.❤
Because of you I let my brassicas bloom and go to seed, and yes, the birds eat and drop some and new plants come up😊
The longer you think what you want to do the clearer it will get. I'm confident you will make something pretty!
I would not sacrifice something that I don't have a control. It depends on how much it means to you. Things you could move around, you'll find a way/place to work with. I have a patch of tall grass that looks ugly but that's where I am looking at while having meals, seeing the birds lands on it, sniping a blade of grass then flying to a nearby tree to build its nest. There's more than a dozen weavers nested on the tree. I have declined many people who want to take the nest to sell it. Told them that if it falls on the ground you can have it, not while it's still hanging on the tree. How do you feel when you get home but it's not there anymore? ( I'm sick of humans whose not humane )
Please don’t lose your view! I think you will regret that! I love the idea of you putting in the tunnel because you can use it to stay cool, and it’s just so useful! I know you’ll find the most perfect spot for your tunnel! ❤
No, don't block your beautiful view, you have lots of room to pick from😊
Hi Robbie leave your view put the tunnel in the driveway. Love you Gary and dear Zoe
Hold the view while you can still see all the wild beauty as it should be..wild n free.
From what you have described, you would have a big obstruction right in front of where you sit. Maybe outside near the parking lot.
I agree, don't loose your view. As we are getting older, our views are so important to sit and enjoy. I don't have many birds, but I have ducks, geese, and just saw a mama and 3 baby turkeys in our yard eating bugs. I love it. You'll figure it out. You can always re-plant. You can't re-locate wild life. Good luck and I'm on your side whatever you do.Happy Gardening and thinking. Love you guys!
Noooo ~ don't lose that beautiful view . We are in a horrible drought here in central Virginia , so it is so hard just to keep everything alive . It's been over a month since we had rain . You are blessed to have all that you have worked so hard for & with so much love. Just think about it for a while .
I will be glad to send you my deer ! 🤣They have totally destroyed soooo many of my perennials . We always have this issue , but this year it is worse with the drought .
I would keep the hill view, and really want a tunnel, hide the big yellow monster, if possible.
Big yellow monster?
Mega mansion.
@@gwenwimthelady3479 Got it - thanks!
Don't give up your view!
I would keep the view. It is so beautiful and peaceful sitting and watching the wildlife.
Keep the view. Enjoy your coffee looking at the birds and deer and all the other critters.
You have a Million Dollar View, Robbie.....that won't transpose into a Million Dollar Tunnel! A Parking Lot Tunnel sounds good..... a bit like a healthy Drive Thru ...Park and Pick!!! 🌿🍊😂🚗
If it were me I would keep that magical view. 🦌
Dear Robbie, Good day to you and Gary. Please consider leaving your "DOG CRATE" area as you have just refurbished it to your liking. It seems, to me, to be your morning Joyful spot and once your Tree Collards are planted along the "edge" it will be almost your completed dream. Your view is seeable and as they say never "buy" a piece of land according to the trees as they are subject to change. Thus, in your case LOVE your view now, while you have it. As far as the tunnel, in these times I think it is necessary and along the drive by your Geraniums, if not too shady, would be grand. But, the tunnel can wait. Let Gary construct it and once you are "DONE" with the "DOG CRATE" area then focus on the tunnel. I have learned so, so much from both of you I can never repay you. Many thank, love and kind thoughts from dedicated viewer. Sincerely, Patricia Joan Tasker
You can always visit Gary's tunnels... KeepThe View!❤❤❤
Keep your priceless view! As I get older I followed your advice in doing the chair garden. You are my inspiration & I steal your positive attitude & energy!! 🤭🤭 I would leave everything as it is!! You have a beautiful garden!! Where else are you going to enjoy those precious 🦌 🦌? Keep the emus so we can enjoy them 😂😂
Do not give up your views. The parking lot is a good idea. However, I think you should wait since you are not 100% sure. Once up, taking it down would be a huge challenge.
No tunnel.
Hi Robbie! That view is beautiful! Curious what you are planning on putting in the tunnel if you make one? My husband and I talked about what we would do. Perhaps we would put the tunnel just outside of the bird garden, from the fence to the pepper tree, and then extend the chair garden into the tunnel. Wishing yall a wonderful evening! Thanks again for being awesome!
How about a mini "amphitheater" shaped green space you could park your 2 cars under with a tunnel to the truck garden? Don't think I explained that very well.
I’m hearing more reasons to keep it tunnel-free than to have the tunnel. I’m in favor of no tunnel there because I really like to see pics of the wildlife going through, and the view in general.
What would you like the tunnel to be used for? Is there an area where there’s no real view, where the tunnel wouldn’t “stick out”?
Just thinkin’ out loud… 🤔
P.S. What was the name of the plant with the pretty yellow flowers?
Thanks for the video - the garden’s looking lovely! 🪴 😍
Hi Robbie! Omgosh, please keep your view. I would place the tunnel along your parking lot or another spot. You would regret loosing your view. I bought a 12x12 octagonal tan canvas gazebo n put it on my deck off the living room several years ago. It was very dark even with the tan screen surround and fortunately it crashed under a major snow storm one night. I was able to save some of the metal base and my son n law and I remade it and put a clear corrugated roof on. It is now only about 8x8 square, yet very open even with the black screen added and it has been such a joy being able to walk out of my living room into the gazebo and and look out at the acres of pines surrounding my property. I also used the gazebo as a green house this past spring. I was stoked! ❤
You could plant two posts anywhere and build a little suspended viewing platform. Zero need to make it fancy if you make it so you can take it down when you're not using it. It could be as simple as a raised porch swing with safety rails or something like a ferris wheel carriage. Or a pair of them. Like a people-sized bird cage, LOL! It wouldn't even have to be that high, would it? If you picked a spot and didn't use that spot for growing tall stuff. You could even incorporate the posts into the end or one side of your tunnel - whichever has the view - where it wouldn't have to be high at all.
You know in your gut & heart what you want to do, but my two cents is that the view isn’t just a view-it contributes significantly to your quality of life, and if you were to lose it, you’d regret it immediately…but only after completing the build.
So, just think of your future self, imagine yourself going out there and not being able to watch the wildlife anymore-you know the answer, Robbie.
No tunnel! Keep the view! You have a total different look to your garden, different from Gary’s. Why try to mimic what he’s doing? What you are able to plant or grow in the tunnel is not your style anyway…
I would leave it alone. It's beautiful and beneficial for the birds and pollinators. Never give up your view. You'll regret it! Plus, I may be wrong, but I can tell by your voice that you don't want to stop seeing the deer 🙂
I have looked at your yard, as well as other gardeners yards, covered in mulch and wished I had lots of mulch. I live in a tiny town in NW PA, and I have lived here most of my 52 years on the planet, and I hope I never have to leave it. Yesterday, I was given such a blessing, I walked out my door, and a huge truck was sitting out front, with a wood chipper on the back….they are clearing limbs away from the power lines, and I talked to the guys, and I told them they can blow that mulch right into a big pile in my yard, and that I would take as much mulch as they could give me. He said they are always looking for a dump site. He said his boss gets him these jobs but he doesn’t think about a dump site. So, I told him to dump away, and he can bring all he needs to.…so that is what they are doing. I had been sitting here, for a week, wishing I had a truck to get a load of natural mulch for around my gardens, and such, so this fall I have a lot of work to do. I wasn’t sure I could use it being green like that, so I was going to let it dry out through the summer and work on it this fall. They have never trimmed the branches from the trees in this town, that I can remember, anyway. God is good, that is all I can say. Now I have mulch, and lots of it. So, if anyone wants mulch, and you see the guys in your neighborhood trimming trees, don’t hesitate to ask for it. They were trimming trees out back of my home last week, and I didn’t ask them, because they were spraying it back into where they cut it from, so I figured that is what they were doing with it, so I am so glad I asked them about it yesterday. I may not be able to cover my whole yard, but I will be able to make some garden areas and go around trees and such in my yard. Ohh, I just heard them fire the chainsaw up across town this morning…yay, more mulch. 😂
Hi Robbie. I hear your dilema, but I also hear how much you love your view of the hillside to see the trees and animals that like to travel thru there. As others have said it speaks to your heart. ❤ But I think there is a part of you that likes the idea of the tunnel too. Just maybe not where it would obstruct your lovely view. You have other options like you said... maybe somewhere on the driveway side. I would suggest to think on it for now and I know the perfect place for a mini tunnel will come to you....should that be the route you'd like to go. You have so many projects going on...don't stress yourself too much. Take it easy and enjoy. 😊
I love my trellis/ tunnel. After growing pole beans and how much easier it was to harvest, I will never go back to growing bush beans again. You seem to grow things I have never heard of or never have eaten. But that is probably because you live in SoCal, I live in Ohio. I will say I envy your over all climate especially in the winter months. I also do a lot of preserving by way of canning, dehydrating, because we cant grow year round here. I cant wait to see what you grow on your tunnel. And to have a salad farm would be awesome.
Unless you have another place from your yard that you are able to enjoy your view from....You already know your answer! Most people would "die" for a view like you are blessed with. It appears that you have other locations to build a tunnel.
Don't lose your view! You have such a huge yard that the tunnel can be someplace else. Add views, don't take away from your view. I like the idea of a tunnel with other plants covering it somewhere else!
See if you husband can have viewing gap within the tunnel, large enough for two to view :D
After finishing the video, I don't think you want it, just do you thing and you can always go visit you husbands tunnel.
Robbie, Can't you angle the arbor so you look out the end at the hillside? You'd probably have to change where you sit. Go to Garys garden and put a chair at one end of his arbor and sit down and see how much you can see out the outer end. That will give you an idea how much hillside you will be able to see from your bird garden. It's alot of work but in the end I really think uou would be happy ❤❤❤.
I would definitely NOT put the tunnel where you showed in the video because it blocks the mountain/ hill wild animal views.
If it was my choice I would put it either somewhere you have yet to have anything growing and start something new.
yeah put it in that area way down …..the driveway where you showed us a few months ago.
Best Wishes
Robbie please do your utube sister a favor ... Could you please... Please please do a video of arch cattle panels... My totes are outside of the tunnel... Please explain the benefits of them inside... Pleeeeeaaaaasssssseeee 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
No tunnel. Definitely don't block your view. As for in the driveway, I say no. No matter where you put it, it will take up too much space. If you want to think about the driveway I would stake out the area and keep it clear for a year and see if you like it. Also how would you really use it? You wouldn't want to grow the same things Gary is growing as those things are already super productive. He has totes on the ground and isn't it mostly fenced. Your stuff in the driveway are almost all up on chairs which protects it a lot from wildlife. You get a lot of wildlife go through there. I feel there are more cons than pros.
Girl, I see your geraniums and I’m so jealous. 😂 I have two small ones and they look super healthy now, but no flowers. My daughter got them a few weeks ago for me, and they weren’t looking too good then, she got them on clearance, I hope they get some flowers soon. 😬
I would never, ever build anything that would block that view. I love watching the wildlife and admittedly so do you, so you have your answer already. Build it in another location.
Maybe instead of a long tunnel like Gary has, turn the tunnel so it is open towards to view and out towards your swing, make 2 of them side by side. That would save your view and still stay open so that you can relax and enjoy nature in all it's glory!! Kind of like two arches side by side instead of a loooonggg tunnel.
My first thought, before you even asked the question, was why were you trying to fit the tunnel in the spot by the dog crates when you have so much room in other places. Don’t give up your view and all your other plans for that area. You’ve got lots of room in the parking area or by the truck bed or the rainbow garden. Your tunnel could be an extension of one of those other gardens. I can tell by the things you said in the video that you don’t want to give up your view. It’s a place of peace and relaxation for you.
Robbie, can you build up, maybe another level onto your deck so this way you could have your view and garden too ! 😉🦌🐺
Hi Robbie thanks for inspiring us, I hope you keep your beautiful view.
Was that a coyote hanging with the Deer? That’s pretty cool footage . I love tunnels , Gary’s is awesome !
Keep the view, please
I love sitting outside and watching wildlife
Place tunnel by driveway area
Love your videos and your sheer live of yoyr garden. Im ftom the UK love listening. But the view is more important and piece of mind
I wouldn’t put the tunnel when the parking had been for parties. You never know if grandchildren will want to use your area for weddings and stuff.the tunnel in the first area seems good.
Why would you even need a tunnel? I really don't understand, you clearly want to keep the view, so it seems an easy answer to me: no tunnel? You have been happy without it for years!
A view like yours is rare, and also adds value to the home. Looking into the distance is built into humans as a way to feel safe. I have a grape tunnel and all sorts of birds and bugs feed on them. I have a bench at one end and the temperature is at least 10-20 degrees cooler in the tunnel on hot days.
You don’t need a tunnel…you have enough to manage on a day to day basis!!! Plus you don’t want the tunnel next to the door outside the house…Sit back and enjoy your view!
I wouldn't make a hasty decision. I took years to chose a pond location. Ive never regretted it.
I wouldn’t do a tunnel up there. It would block your view. How about out by the chair garden or down by pond sitting area.
Robbie if it was me I whould wait And think about it more cause if u love watching the deer maybe u should think twice
Don’t give up your view. Put the tunnel outside or wait until you, yourself are more sure of what you want to do and where to put it. In time you will know and be more clear about it.
You could make several tunnels going the other direction instead of long ways through the garden and that could leave room for a view. Like small tunnels on each end of the garden.
I would not block my view; I would find another spot for a tunnel. 😊
That yellow house on top with a big tunnel with maybe purple flowers would be gorgeous at end of the drive.
If it were me, I would put it in the drive because I would not want to lose my favorite spot, but that is a decision that you will have to make lol. I have a favorite spot, and I never want to lose it.
Try it up . If you don’t like it then take it down. Not everyone has that “ view “ for sure.
I think you will miss your view. I think the parking lot is your best bet.
I would keep the view. I would build it in the parking. I like the idea of the tunnel being in front of where the cars are parked.
Think about it for a while. You always have nexted year .
Don't lose your view
I think you are right ❤️
Yes you need a view. Why due need a tunnel unless you are cutting down on what you have. Tunnel makes shade.
You really do need your view.
I think so too 😊
Keep the view . What about the front yard ? You don't seem to set out there very much . just an idea .
A tunnel by pond could be pretty flowers at end of drive. Would be good view during in.
Why would you lose your little piece of heaven.? Put it ouside!
KEEP the view - you have lots of other places for your tunnel
I say keep your view, wait until next year or the fall and put the tunnel in the driveway .
Keep your view …. Tunnel by UK oh parking area
Keep the hill view ... Angle the tunnel to where u could put a sitting area up against it to watch the deer
No dont put the tunnel there. That is your sanctuary and time to chill out and enjoy nature
Keep the view and put the arbor down by the chair garden.
If your lucky enough to have the view why would you cover it up 😱 lol
Please don't lose your View if you want a tunnel put it somewhere else
Do NOT lose a view that most people would die for.
Yes, build the tunnel but over by the cars.
Keep your view. The tunnel is not necessary
