      I don't know anyone who wouldn't welcome some Bombs socks for Christmas! Or any reason. Looking out for your neighbors, especially those in need, is what every decent human being should do. I order stuff throughout the year from Amazon and give it to a local Christian organization who ministers to the homeless people in my county. They don't care about what religion the clients follow because they help regardless.

    You ladies might want to make the effort of reducing the fuel load (reducing the number of trees, limbing the trees, and removing any dead timber) in the forest around the property in as wide a radius as you can so a forest fire wont run through as easily. This is something you can do slowly and expand outwards over several years, its a big undertaking.
    Some bonuses in doing this is that the trees you do leave standing, the largest and healthiest, will grow much more quickly, the trees you cut down is free firewood/timber and it will make the place look much nicer^^

      @@OZ01209 , I was the Desk Manager at Ragged Point Inn in Big Sur for 8 years. I lived about 15 ft. from the edge of a 350 ft. cliff above the Pacific. Given, it was a single-wide trailer, but it was amazing, and it was rent and utility free. Once I took the Desk Manager position I also got a shift meal. Many of the Big Sur resorts had seasonal workers, and some of the more ritzy ones provided spa services. We contracted out to a masseuse in Cambria, about 20 miles away for appointments. So, the short answer after this long answer is yes!

    Electricity doesn't work that way. You either double amperage OR voltage. There is no way to wire panels that doubles both at the same time.

    I think your math on your batteries is incorrect. You basically have 6 each 100 AH, 48v batteries which means you have a 600 AH, 48v battery bank. Amps X Volts = Watts so you have 28,800 Watt-Hours of battery storage.

    It's amazing how much you've been able to accomplish. It's been great following along over the years. I remember following you when you were in the van in Mexico. How time flies. Congrats on living your dream. Teamwork made the dream work. 👍

    So much from the ground up and it feels so luxurious now, especially with all the outdoors accomodations! I mean if you put that on airbnb when you go to your mexican property... might not feel as luxurious in the winter, though. We will need a winter tour. I'm sure it will feel whimsical:)

    Your solar power is impressive, your water trench impressive, garden/greenhouse impressive. there's nothing you girls can't create and conquer together as a team. I mean you make all the rest of us look bad. You're floating cabin is SICK! You can't place a price on what you have built together through blood sweat and tears and your commitment to one another. I'm only halfway through watching, stopped at the merch and we'll be back to write more great comments to try to hold a candle to the great quality of your video direction and production.

  • @leebliss3622

    Thank you for being an example to all girls and women around the world. Building, renovating, etc is so often considered a man’s job, the way that some people speak about this area is as though it’s just impossible for women to ever figure out, let alone actually do, which is ridiculous but it’s true.
    For you two, to do THIS much? being self taught? is phenomenal. It really is. You are truly the living embodiment of “we can do anything” you have made me realise that building isn’t some mystical insanely difficult impossible thing that only big strong burly men can do, it’s something humans can do, anyone can do, it takes effort, and focus, and time, and work, and discipline and commitment but it’s possible.
    I used to feel powerless in this area, now? I’m looking at remote locations to purchase something similar because now I know I can do it too.
    I don’t know how many women have said this to you yet, but you have actually genuinely empowered so many women in such a profound, life changing way by by including us in this series and In your life in general.
    Because if you they can do it, you can do it, and if you can do it, so can I.
    Thank you for being such a positive and uplifting influence for women and girls everywhere. It’s really cool and really appreciated. ❤
    🙌

    Just wondered what you decided to name the new Excavator? I can't believe what you girls have done to your property in three years. The transformation is amazing. Everything you touch turns to gold. I can't wait to see what you do to the new property on the lake. I'm sure it will be equally beautiful. Thanks for the tour!

    I cannot tell you enough how much you've both inspired me to (eventually) build my own place!! South Africa isn't quite ready yet but I intend on changing that! Even though it's gonna be about six years before I can start anything, I've already drawn up a rough plan of what I want to do. One of the main issues for me is the location. I want to be local enough for delivery-take out, but also have a large enough property for me to build my mostly-underground log home - thankfully I already have an idea of what tools I need, due to the two of you :-) So thank you for pushing me out of my comfort zone and sharing your lives with us all!

    My favorite channel. Second favorite is The Nomadic Movement, then Eamon and Bec. Followed up by Mac and Occy.
    Trent and Allie had a great build as well. However, Trent and Allie are more about having bigger, better, newer, and this channel and others like it, are more intentional and not so materialistic.
    Outside of having kids and remodeling their house, Trent and Allie won’t have a lot for different content. I feel like you ladies will have content for years and years to come! Awesome job on everything, ladies! You are a true inspiration 💜

    I’m so very proud of you two gals. I’m a 67 year old mom with a 27 year old daughter who’s ambitious just like the two of you and faces every challenge life brings her head on. Just like the two of you if she doesn’t know how to do it she googles it haha! It’s so wonderful to see young woman out there doing what was typically once tasks you’d only see men doing. It just goes to show us all that all you have to do to succeed is try. It might take many attempts but as with most of things. In life the rewards come at the end of the journey. God bless and best wishes to you both.

    You all are so inspirational. Brava! You are so ahead of the curve. Being connected to the land, the wildlife, seeing your pups live their absolute best lives, eating your own plants, and being self-taught and self-sufficient--it's not easy but it is the fulfilling, emerging way. Thank you for showing us the way. :^)
