I (Lacie) want to tell you how proud we are of you guys. Just the other day Selah asked what courage was and we told her that courage is being scared of something but doing it anyway. Congratulations on having the courage to take this journey for your family. We love you guys and we would love to have you in NC but you are going to do great things where ever you land. Love and Blessings from the Dickson Family!! ❤
So wonderful that you put your priorities in each other. Good on you! Also, what a great experience for your children. I wish we had done this when the kids were little, before they turn into teens that don't want to spend time with you. I miss that age. I've been binge watching your adventure and wish you all the best. As it happens, hubby and I will be selling it all and moving to Vermont in 3 years time. We have been planning this for 7 years now, and it is getting close. I'm learning so much from you.
The easiest way to quit the rat race is to cut everything down to the essentials only. I havent had a cell phone in over 3 years now and dont miss it one bit. Get rid of cable or satellite and get an off air antenna. Find alternatives to everything you have to the point where you are still comfortable. Its easy once you start and when you do your mind changes the way you approach life.
You made me cry. That is easy to do these days. Last month I lost my husband to the ravages of agent orange from Vietnam. We were married 50 years in August. I see my husband and I in y'all. There were times when we thought we could not go on together but, we loved each other and our children. I can see your love for each other and your boys and it really blesses my heart. I seldom comment but wanted to let y'all know how much I love your family even though I have never met you. I will be praying for y'all and never missing your videos. Good luck and Godspeed.
Faye Cartwright. Married 50 years, how lucky to have such love in your life for so long. I admire you Faye, you seem to have such strength. God bless you and your family x
It is hard to put into words how much we love you guys. You are not just friends, you are forever family. We love you, pray for you and you will always be in our hearts deep down.
I’ve been watching your blog since before your journey began. I think it’s kind of symbolic that the journey has taken 9 - 10 months. You gave birth to a new homestead and lifestyle 😀
Dave Ramsey, the man who didn't design the plan, but has the courage to share the financial plan that God intended us to live by! I figured living the way he encourages HAD to play a role in how you could travel the country to find your forever home! I'm so happy and excited for you that you had a chance to travel the country this past year and spend time with so many amazing people! I cant wait to hear the announcement on where you will land and make your forever homestead! God bless you both, oh, and Happy Birthday!!!!!
Omgosh, you made me cry with your statement something like" if it was put on your heart then you should try" .. Spoke directly to my heart. Thank you again..
Beautiful! Fear keeps us from growing! In 1968 my parents took us out of bush Alaska and we went on a trip of a lifetime! They stuck us in a station wagon and hooked up a little trailer and off we went! We traveled the western half of the US. Then we went way down into Mexico and spent the winter there. Eventually, we made our way back to Alaska. Sustainable living was the only way to live in Alaska back then. Somewhere along the line, I bought into the work smarter not harder way of thinking. Now in my 50's I am watching youtube videos to make that circle and find my way back to that life!!! Seems crazy! I love watching your videos! I found you around Christmas....probably through Roots and Refuge. Fear and failure are always an opportunity to grow.
So humble and so brave!!!!! You are winners!!!! I'm 65 and you are living my life.....you will have awesome moments and sometimes sad ones. But, that is life. I traveled all over the world with my grandparents, (military) my uncle ( also military) and with my own parents (military, lol) and I continued as a military wife. Life and Love is what you make it. It's personal and your own. GOD bless you both and your beautiful family. Enjoy!
Yeah! I can't wait to to hear it all! I'm have no doubt y'all have inspired many through this journey. Be proud friends, proud that you realized the need to live like nobody else, proud that you jumped beyond the fear, proud that you built your family, proud you can look back and say "yeah, we did that", most of all proud that you found where your future starts. Love y'all
Ben and Meg, you guys are so down to earth! just love watching your channel as well and May God bless you both together and the Choice you made Ben, was to be with your family and God will Honor you for that.
It has been so beautifull to follow your tour through all the States and to another way of living. What I like the most about it is to see you change during the last months, being in so much more harmony with yourself and with eachother. You both seems to be more compleet, in balance and free of daily stress. Even the kids look more open and free. It's so great to watch it and so obvious you made the best decision ever for your family. I wish you a new live at a new place where you will hold everything you found on your journey and find even more happyness. ❤️
Love you guys! No matter where you make home, you will make it a home! You have done what most simply dream of doing and at an age where the hard work will pay off big time. I will be 64 Monday and all my vagabond days seem wasted. I have tales but nothing to show for it. Trying to get the things done at home that need doing to make caring for the chickens easier is hard without help. My hubs has his priorities and he does looks over function. I can't wait for the reveal. Ya'll know where I am hoping for! 💝
When my husband was still alive he was work first always. Then he got sick and died of cancer. I was left with 2 boys almost grown so we moved closer to family built a home and it's been 15 years, no debt boys grown but I'm now raising chickens intend to get goats this spring and raise them for meat. My operation will be small as I am 65 so not as energetic as I use to be. Being debt free I can do pretty much what I want so will take my time to do what I want right. Good luck on your venture cherish your family enjoy your togetherness follow your dreams.
We are so close to the jumping off point. My husband, as the provider, is having a hard time cutting the corporate umbilical cord. It's just too hard living where we are now, with one foot on the hamster wheel, and the other one tasting freedom. Thank you guys for sharing this journey with all of us.
Ive been thinking this way for a long time and watching you both has made me feel not alone in fighting agaunst the grain and i hope to have the opportunity to put my hard work back into my family instead of towards the grind.
So happy for you that you saw the problem and had the courage to take the leap! Best wishes for your future, I’m sure you’re excited to move forward and settle down.
Thanks for sharing your story..I am gonna share with my husband..we are from California, we know we want to leave, my husband's job requires his everything..we have 2 young kids and at the same time are only little less than 15yrs from retirement (my husband..I am a stay at home, Homeschooling Mom)..Big decisions and we too are scared..Again, thanks for sharing your story..and may we ask for your prayers that our journey will be as fruitful as yours.👍😁
I'm so glad you stayed together. now days people don't even try and make the effort to stay together and raise there family's. I'm looking forward to seeing you again at next years conference.
A great education for your kids. An excellent reason and it has been a great joy to watch your family travel and grow together. Looking forward to watching you homestead. Love your family and pray God's richest blessings and direction in the coming year.
I am so glad you guys were able to put in the foundation to enable yourselves to do this. What a lifechanging thing and I am thrilled that it brought you back together as a cohesive, solid unit again.
I thought I recognized that green house. : ) Good for you all, it's wonderful that you've traveled and played and prayed about your new home...God is so good. It's also cool that you've seen the US, we haven't traveled much, we've only seen our little corner of the US.
Thanks for your heart felt inspiration! Be proud you both exude love and compassion. That’s what it’s all about. Please never loose that focus in your journey. Enjoy !!!!!
OMG! I so wish this was the first video you guys ever had put out, for me that is, cause I have 2 responses......I have truly fallen in love with your "purpose or story and reason" for this adventure! And for number 2......AMEN!!! Much love and God bless from Sue in NC.
This past years path that you have taken will be memories you both and the boys will never forget,the jouney of a family together getting to know each other once again and the joy and love you find in each other.Well done and may the blessings of God and the power of his Angels watching over you continue to rain down upon You all..
You got me hooked for the big reveal. I’m thinking you will choose North Carolina. I think you represent many people now and to come who will get back to the land and growing.
I am so stoked to find out where you are going to call home! I have the same sneaky suspicion that you are going to end up near the Rhodes family and Art and Bri. No matter where you land, I am really going to enjoy watching you set up your new homestead!
Ohhhhh Im excited for you all. I kinda hope you will land near Justin / Rebekah and Art/Bri . . but where ever you land I know you have made life long friends .. NO .. LIFE LONG FAMILY along the way!
Tahneesmum 👏👏👏👏 Yes!!!! If they end up near Justin/Rebecca Rhodes that would be EPIC...they'd all have "Forever Subscribers( RUclips Family)! Great Way to look at it!
I've enjoyed getting to know you on your adventure, thanks for taking us along. Thanks for being wonderful encouraging folks through this. God bless you! I'm praying for you😍
Your video today was heart warming and your journey across the country has been inspiring. Thank you for sharing and wishing you much happiness in the New Year!
Dave Ramsey is why we have paid off all of our credit cards and only have a one car payment and the mortgage. We are working toward paying everything off. I think this journey has been amazing! Thank you taking us with you.
You made me cry! I am going insane with the anticipation! Have you told anyone at all??? Like your mom??? Lol! I can't wait to see Georgia in your top five! I am so excited to see where you land even if it's not next door! Xoxoxo
You guys rock. As an LEO, I dedicated so much to my job that my carreer destroyed 2 marraiges. My fault and I've paid the price for it in so many ways. It's a lonely life especially since retirement. Make God 1st, Family 2nd, and carreer 3rd in your life. You guys are doing it right. Blessings :-)
In 1983, I had some unexpected money come in (only 1500$), and decided to take my 2 girls and dog in the Toyota truck with cap to visit my grandmother in Montana. I totally understand how scary it is. Even while planning and packing, I had to tell myself that we could turn back if it was too hard. I really wasn't sure we would go until we were on the road for a few days. We went from Maine, N.H. and Vermont to Canada, looped under the great lakes and back to Canada, out to Banff and Lake Louise, and then down to Montana. Stayed with Gram for a bit, then headed home through Yellowstone, the Badlands, and Mt. Rushmore. It was so hot in S Dakota that we decided to go north into Minnesota. So glad we did or we would have missed Pipestone Park. It ended up being our favorite. Not really a lot to see, but the feeling of peacefulness being in the place where all the tribes came to mine the catlinite for their peace pipes was tangible. Back to Canada above the Great Lakes to Niagara and home thru Northern N.Y. it was the best thing I could have done for my kids. They still talk about it. My oldest turned ten in Pipestone and we had a birthday party with the kids at the KOA campground. Snowballs in July in sun suits in Glacier Park (Amazing, like the most beautiful garden ever seen). Adventures, running out of money, and waiting for our bank to send enough to get home on, the Parisian kids, hitchhikers who stayed with us for days and gave an exhausted single mom a break. Just really wonderful memories!
All the feels!!! Dying for the announcement. And I have hope that Adam and I will be able to make a similar "how we did it" video in the future. 😘 Love y'all.
I can't wait to see what you choose. I think I know where you're going I'm going to keep that exciting news in my heart. I'm hoping for a certain place you probably know. We will see which one came out as the best Contender for where you make your new Homestead God bless be safe and have a Happy New Year.
Thank you so much for making me feel it's not wrong to not want to work so much, I recently cut back on my work load an I was feeling like I was letting people down but you made me feel I need to look after me first,, so again thank you😁💖😍
I am in love with you all. The love you all have for each other is so Beautiful God is Beautiful May we all live in peace Amen. Love is the only way to a Beautiful life Amen. Stay safe and make your dream's come true you all keep on keeping on life is what you make it Amen Thank you, Jesus. God Bless you all your friend Joseph.
My honey and I are in the process of doing the exact same thing almost. We are leaving Michigan and moving to Kentucky to rebuild our forever homestead. I was looking forward to walking away from job when we got there and focusing on the homestead but after looking at things I am close enough to retirement that it didn’t make sense for me to walk away from it. I watch everyone tell how they just walk away from their jobs and live debt free but no one ever tells how they can walk away from their 401k accounts or their retirement money they have earned and would throw away. How do you just walk away from that and not regret it or worry you won’t have the money to live on later in life ?
Your lucky then. I lose mine and as far as I can find out I can’t move it. If I quit before retirement age it freezes until age 62. I retire long before that lol
Greatly enjoy watch you guys. you are such an encouragement. Thank you for your honesty and openness in sharing these questions/answers. Wishing you the very best!
Recently found your channel through Roots and Refuge. Love it! Subbed 💓... the thing I keep thinking (and I'm sure others have mentioned it, I haven't seen all your videos yet) what stories will your children tell in 20-30 yrs? Their perspective of this must be epic! Well done you two!!!
So I’ve been watchin’ Hollar ROAMstead since before their California house remod and quick sale. May I say, WOW. What a trip. An adventure of a lifetime. And to find home. ⛰🏡. How wonderful. And yet only just the intro into their new homestead life. Happy 2019. ❤️
Been binge watching and I love your channel and your simple life! God bless you and your family on your new adventure! Glad to be able to comment but totally get why you can't on most. Keep up the awesome work/life!
oh my goodness, i found you through Roots and Refuge. you guys are unique,. i admire your goals. God Bless you. I just started gardening this year and I'm looking forward to Spring I have subscribed to your channel. Keep doing what you love. - yayyyy,. And yes, your children grow so fast. Mine are all grown & out of the house already. We're actually grandparents. So Cool what ya'll are doing. I'm enjoying your videos now. Blessings!!!! Bertha / Del Rio, Texas
I have enjoyed following you, found you as you left CA. Love Dave Ramsey, we couldn't have had our RV adventure without being debt free. Exvited to see where you land.

I got out of debt 8 years ago and never felt so free. It’s a wonderful life❣️
Yes!! Love to hear that.
I’ve been watching your blog since before your journey began. I think it’s kind of symbolic that the journey has taken 9 - 10 months. You gave birth to a new homestead and lifestyle 😀

My oldest turned ten in Pipestone and we had a birthday party with the kids at the KOA campground. Snowballs in July in sun suits in Glacier Park (Amazing, like the most beautiful garden ever seen). Adventures, running out of money, and waiting for our bank to send enough to get home on, the Parisian kids, hitchhikers who stayed with us for days and gave an exhausted single mom a break. Just really wonderful memories!
Those are some amazing memories you made!! So much fun.
Love your journey..
Omg....this gave me shivers!! I admire what both if you are doing. Can't wait for the next video!!! Yay!! Lots of love from Wisconsin.

My honey and I are in the process of doing the exact same thing almost. We are leaving Michigan and moving to Kentucky to rebuild our forever homestead. I was looking forward to walking away from job when we got there and focusing on the homestead but after looking at things I am close enough to retirement that it didn’t make sense for me to walk away from it. I watch everyone tell how they just walk away from their jobs and live debt free but no one ever tells how they can walk away from their 401k accounts or their retirement money they have earned and would throw away. How do you just walk away from that and not regret it or worry you won’t have the money to live on later in life ?
Our retirement account is our own, so there was no walking away, and we can add to it over the years still.
Your lucky then. I lose mine and as far as I can find out I can’t move it. If I quit before retirement age it freezes until age 62. I retire long before that lol
Greatly enjoy watch you guys. you are such an encouragement. Thank you for your honesty and openness in sharing these questions/answers. Wishing you the very best!
Very encouraging video,thankyou! Looking forward to New Years video!
I can't wait!!! I am on pins and needles!!! I hope you don't go back to Cal. !! Too expensive!
Oh no, we won’t be doing that. That I can tell you now! 😉
I am fascinated by your journey, and a little bit jealous. :) Looking forward to the next video.
Recently found your channel through Roots and Refuge. Love it! Subbed 💓... the thing I keep thinking (and I'm sure others have mentioned it, I haven't seen all your videos yet) what stories will your children tell in 20-30 yrs? Their perspective of this must be epic! Well done you two!!!
I am so excited for the stories they will have for their kids and grandchildren. ❤️
