- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Join our family as we race to get ready for the brutal Alaska winter! Last minute preps on the homestead need to be completed before the first snowfall.
Many more projects to come in the next video.
Living off grid in the Alaska wilderness is amazing.
This type of living requires constant teamwork and good communication skills between us.

Central Alberta, first frost last night, garden is almost all in except potatoes and beets. Lots of canning done and more to do. We are farmers and love the land. Great video, like the family working together, that is how we grew. Blessings
Oh awesome that you do canning and grow your food!
Wow, first frost...we know what is next!
Great job. We are starting to harvest our potatoes.
My favorite so far is the Cal White
They are wonderful huge white baking potatoes... great yield too.
Thanks for watching
I love watching people get ready for winter. I have lived in Bali for 35 years and we only have two seasons really. Wet and dry. Our monsoon starts about the same time as your winter. Last year it was Oct 17. It rained for 7 months. I was off grid in a tent. I have the roof on my wooden house and have now moved into it before the rain and will finish up whilst living in it. I do miss seasons though, and thank you for sharing yours. ❤
Wow. Sounds like you get so much rain.
Well we get about 7 months of snow and winter it seems here in Alaska. So we can about match you on the rain almost! Lol.
You are tough. Sounds like if you have been there 35 years you are happy there.
Thank you for sharing and watching us😊👍
Got to love the way the children work together so well. Very hard working young children.😊😊😊
Well thank you. We are more on the
" old fashioned " side of things.
We limit technology and expect them to help so they can learn skills.
We try to pass down our knowledge to them...
They are great kids and I appreciate your nice comment. 😊
Thanks for watching
The power of family. Love the way you all work together. I live in Florida and we are recovering from hurricane Helene where are home took 3 feet of storm surge. My crew and all of my family came together to help, what a blessing. I own a construction company so I am very lucky in that regard. We will be out to help as many people as we can. Thoughts and prayers to the many thousands of people who are suffering. Thanks for the diversion.
Oh my goodness. I am so very sorry to hear about that. 3 feet...whew.
What a blessing your family came together... sounds like unity and family will conquer in your situation.
Good thing you are in the construction business but still that's a tough thing.
Good luck, thanks for sharing and our thoughts are with you... stay strong
Weather in Colorado is still hot. 😊
Is that normal?? I would think it would be getting cooler? .... interesting!
Thank you for sharing!
Greetings from Farmington UT. It reached 91 f here today with nothing but blue skies. I found your channel last week and have been binge watching your content ever since. You've done a wonderful job building your channel and I love the wholesome content you provide! I love your family!! You are teaching your kids some wonderful skills and it's great to see they know the value of both hard work and hard play. May god bless you all!!
Oh you are so nice. Thank you so much for that.
91 degrees. Wow that sounds warm. I have not worn shorts since we moved here 8 years ago! I do miss the warmer temps I will admit.
However I don't think we will ever move from this state. Thank you for sharing!!!
Just met your family tonight! Loved you all and your very unpretentious videos! It was so enjoyable to see what you have to do on a daily basis to get ready for winter. Watching the kids get along with each other, and pitch right in, working as hard as the adults. Your lifestyle is one that I love, but know I could never do it. So I took the next best step and subscribed to you after that first video! Can’t wait till part two!
Yeah!!! Thank you. We are working on the part 2 video right now actually...
Hoping to release it Saturday! 😊
Thank you for watching us!!
Thank you for the compliment on the kids too.👍
Life here is so free and easy. I like it.
Life in this state is amazing. There are great people here and it has lots of resources.
The scenery is so beautiful. ❤
Well thank you. Yes Alaska is one of the most amazing, extreme places I have ever seen.
Everything is big here...even the mosquitos! Lol
Watching from the Philippines. We don't have winter here. That is why I like watching your channel.
Oh my, it does sound nice to skip a winter! Lol
Here in Hastings Michigan, it's been mild. The long range forecast for west Michigan, lake effect snow, regular snow storms etc. Don't believe we're have a mild winter. Wishing you all well this winter.😎⛄
Hello Michigan!!! Thanks for sharing! Sounds like you guys will be getting snow soon too😊!
Great team work getting everything ready for winter. Great update!
Thank you. Woke up to freezing temps this morning. Countdown begins! Lol thanks for watching
I just love this video 😂❤
Oh thank you so much!!! So happy you like it
We will have part 2 out next weekend
I had a college friend that wrote me a letter on birch bark. He was from NY and he was at a camp. Dearest Patrick. A fond memory.
Oh wow. That's something. Yes birch bark is actually very clean after you peel it off. Many uses of birch bark. I have actually read that people used to make baskets, canoes, cups, etc...many things out of it back in the day.... the young leaves of the saplings we make tea out of those
Thanks for watching!
Hi, carol from Alabama. It's still in the 80s here. We have lots of cloud cover from Helene. We weren't affected at all by the storm. We are getting lots of pretty colors early this year. I loved the longer video. I think it's so great how all the kids work so hard together. They are great kids I can tell. Ty for sharing your lives with us. Great video.
Hello Carol! Thanks for watching us. Wow, in the 80s.... that sounds nice right about now...Lol
Glad you were not affected by the storm...
Yes you are noticing the changes in nature. It's neat how our bodies just know the "cues" to get ready...almost like a squirrel.
Thanks for your support and sharing your temps
I’m in very southern Alabama. In the upper 70 this morning. Had to put a jacket on.
Enjoy your channel. You have great kids.
Oh thank you. They help us so much.
Lily doesn't like me lifting heavy things so she will lift them. So sweet.
Great video!
Thank you Debbie. Woke up to freezing temps this morning...here we go!! Lol
Really enjoyed watching 😊
Oh yeah thank you!!!!
👍Thanks for the video . Take care & stay safe
Absolutely. You too. Expecting snow in about 20 days or so... busy busy
Australia here currently we are just hitting the middle of spring and it's 22°c today but we had rain yesterday so it a cool day today. But in the last month I have planted peas, carrots, bokchoy, San choy, beetroot, onions, corn, lettuce, and just yesterday I planted tomatoes, basil, and year round I have strawberries, asparagus, chillies.
Oh my!!! Impressive crops you are planting! Good for you. Best to grow your own so you know what you are really eating! Great job👍😊
Herr in Alabama we are good 80s in the day and 60 at night. Love It. Can’t imagine being in. Alaska.
Your weather sounds amazing!!! I am jealous!
I'm doing great and I believe my weather is the same as yours. Lol
I believe so!!
It's starting to freeze in the mornings...I will miss the fall colors soon....
Greetings from Massachusetts. The opening scenes of your video were amazing, thank you for that. We are getting into Fall here. Day time is around 70 degrees. Nighttime is in the 50's. Love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing with us. Wish you all the best.
Oh those temps sound amazing!!! Thank you for sharing and glad you are enjoying the videos.
My family is doing our winter countdown...we are estimating about 20 days til some snow .
We will see!
Good video!
Thank you!!!
Great video on the property getting ready for winter here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎
Thank you!!! Yep never-ending chores! ...at least our kids help lighten the load a bit which is nice 👍
Hi Family 👋👋
It is wonderful to see you all work together like you do.
I have a suggestion that you may have already thought about/others may have suggested also.
When you have collected the rounds place them near the 'new' wood shed with the splitter also so that they can be loaded straight into the shed once split (maybe save time/handling) 🤔🤔
Thankyou for sharing your life with us.
Keep warm an safe in the coming months.
As we warm up here Down Under in Melbourne Australia.
See you next time😊😊
Hello Australia!!! That is a wonderful idea and so nice that you care enough to say something.
I like it. I will let the family know your idea
Well we are thinking the first snow may hit possibly mid October ?
Still so much to do!!! Thanks for watching us!
Greetings from South Africa, in spring but temps expected to drop to 0 degrees Celsius. Nothing like your weather. Enjoying the video!
Oh yeah! Glad you are enjoying the videos. Thank you for sharing! The temps are dipping off and it's definitely time for us to harvest our potatoes! 🥔🥔🥔 Time to start getting out the jackets too ..!
84 in Minnesota today. Makes it hard to start getting ready for winter when it’s still so warm
Wow...that's crazy warm for almost October! Hmmmm...yes very strange weather everywhere. Thank you for sharing!!!!
First big heavy deep snow that sucker is history. Reinforce it helps a lot.
Good thought. Thanks for caring enough to leave a comment...😊👍
Part 2 coming out tomorrow hopefully!
Oh that was a nice piece of birch bark. It would make a beautiful basket. If we can’t harvest we pay a pretty price for the bark. Vermont today was 60 degrees with beautiful sunshine. We are coming off several days of dark dreary rainy days.
Hello Vermont! Thank you for sharing.
60 degrees.. sounds like a good temp.
Yes the birch bark is so versatile.
We make birch bark tincture and birch bark salve too. We use the orange layer under the white paper
It's amazing for pain, headaches, sore muscles. We also love to drink birch water in the spring too.
The birch tree is truly amazing overall 😊
Hi, here the central interior of BC Canada, the leaves are really starting to fall and we have had frost three or four times yesterday. I saw snow o the mountains. That’s great repurposing the hen house into a woodshed. Thanks for sharing. 🌷🇨🇦
Yes, we do miss our chickens but for now I just buy eggs from a friend.
We may get some pigs next year, we will see.
They are so smart, you have to be on it with them!
We tried to winter pigs in 2022 and it was a nightmare because the hot fence stopped working. ( Not enough light) They were running loose everywhere getting into all sorts of things. It was truly a circus. We learned only in the summer for pigs! Lol
@@Alaskan6pack on our new property, we may get chickens again. I do t want to take on too much cause we have so much to do and we are no spring chickens anymore. But I always liked my birds. The pigs will be great to help you clear your new land too eh. I so look forward to your future videos, have a great day
Sounds like you can relate. You take care and talk soon!
Northern Wisconsin 50 deg this morning. Warm for this time of year
Yes! So many comments on weather this last video make me think it's just warmer overall...
It's been interesting hearing from everyone.
Thank you for sharing!!😊👍
N Wisconsin we’ve had a hot dry September. Looks like it will finally cool off in October. We’re ready for winter, have a good five years worth of firewood. It’s great to be so far ahead it’s like money in the bank.
Wow! I'm a bit jealous of 5 years ahead on firewood!!! Great job. Great planning.
Sounds like you are ready for a cool off...
Thanks for sharing!! 😊👍
I am in Clare Michigan, Its still been 60s to 70s durning the day,down to the 40s at night.
Sounds like you guys are slowly dipping down in temps. Thank you for sharing!!!
Hello from South Carolina! We are lucky and avoided the worst of this latest hurricane, but my area did have a few down trees and flooding. Still in the high 80s and humidity through the roof! Cannot wait for a bit of a cool down. But not excited for too cold!
Well I am glad you guys are safe.
I have had vewiers that were affected by that hurricane... horrible and scary.
Thank you for sharing!!!
Stay safe and yes sounds like a cooldown would be nice with high humidity!
The scenery at the beginning is absolutely stunning. I’ll find Harley’s channel and subscribe . So happy to see another video today ❤❤. Great job and I’m still praying y’all get a couple of moose’s. The weather is a little chilly for me in the 70 s but I’m old and get chills easily. In Alabama
Oh thank you. !! Yes Harley is cute. He has his own style, he is a simple guy and if you watch how he harvested potatoes in his first video you will see he is 100% boy! He never cares if he gets dirty. We used to call him " Charlie Brown"... he is such a good person
@@Alaskan6pack I found his channel after a few tries finding it you know because I’m old as dirt and yes I loved his videos especially the one about potatoes. He’s learning and is going to be great at his videos. The tree felling kinda scared me but when I heard his dad ask him about the tree I knew he would be fine because dad is watching 👏👏👏. I will watch everyone of his videos and hopefully he will get a lot of followers. Is your oldest son still doing videos? I haven’t seen one in a long time and have forgotten the name of his channel.
Yes Hudson is still doing videos.
Hangin with Hudson in Alaska
He should have one coming out tomorrow I think.
Thank you for watching us.
Yes Harley loves the dangerous things, and Hudson is super cautious.
So funny they are brothers, they are so opposite!
Hello from Maine! We're also preparing for winter here as it's our first time experiencing not only winter but winter in our off grid cabin. We moved to northern Maine in May of this year from south Florida.
Oh great job!!! That's quite the climate and lifestyle change!
Are you liking it so far?....
You will do great. Make sure you have enough snow shovels and walk behind snow blowers.
Keep me posted, that's exciting!!!
@@Alaskan6pack Very much so. We're both in out late 40s as well.😂
As for how we're liking it, it has been such a massive adjustment. Both rewarding and humbling.
Thank you so much for the suggestions! I hope to be witness to your channel gaining millions of followers.
Oh you are nice thank you. Good job .. it's a healthier lifestyle I feel like...but harder work too! Keep it up you guys will do great 👍
Connecticut... starting to get clues of cold coming. Trees have mostly changed but still haven't dropped their leaves yet.
Martha, thank you for sharing.
Sounds like you are noticing changes like we are!!!
It's beautiful but scary all at the same time! Lol
You take care, thanks for sharing.
I just had a veiwer from AZ say she had 113 degrees
I am in Southern Mexico, we are in the interior but had 6 days of torrential rain from hurricane John and hurricane Helene. Landslides and flooding but where we are we are ok. Finally stopped raining this morning, now to dry out.
Oh my goodness. That's too much rain! I hope you guys are ok and start to dry out a bit. My thoughts are with you there...thanks for sharing!!!
I love watching your family in all your adventures. We live in the south part of Minnesota. It was 86 today. Farmers are harvesting beans here. But on Tuesday we are going to be 65 here. So things are changing fast. Can't wait for your next video. Hope the snow doesn't come for a few weeks. How old are your children? They work so beautifully together and have fun at the same time.😊
Oh thank you!! They are 19, 17, 15 and almost 13.
They do get along very well.
Wow, is 86 degrees hot for you in Minnesota this time of year?
It seems like overall the weather is warmer everywhere. Well thank you for sharing!!! 😊
Absolutely stunning video! Our weather is 113°. Could use some of your cooler weather😅 Stay warm.❤ Good job Brady...what a guy!!
Wow that is crazy hot! You can take some of our weather and we will take some of yours! Lol
Yes Brady runs that tractor pretty good.
Jeff has taught him everything on running that machine.
Neat to see another generation on the "green machine!"
Great video finally got to watch it. Its 85 and sunny in mn. Should be 40 at night and 60 during the day. Busy with dad. Turn for the worst.
Looks like you are getting some protection over important things. Will make the after smow chores more challenging but the item will last longer
Oh no...I hope he is ok... I am so sorry.!
Yes good products over important items
At least they are covered. The snow and ice are aweful on things..
Well hope everything is ok
Great Video!! Turning the chicken coop into a wood shed is a good idea! We’re turning ours into a shed for the outside cats to stay warm and dry during the rain and snow
Oh that's a good idea too!! Maybe we will get chickens next year...need a better way to keep them warm and not worry about them in the extreme cold winters here.
Off grid means it's even more difficult!
Hey can't wait to have more of your salsa. That's good stuff😊😊😊😊
That was our problem too! We gave all of our chickens away, they were getting too cold. I’m actually leaving for town to get the stuff for the salsa, glad yall like it!
Thanks for sharing. High 80’s here in FL and very humid.
Whew, that humidity is so hard to handle! Sticky.
I remember spending some time in Missouri 20 years ago and it was so different than dry climate. Thank you for sharing!!!
@@Alaskan6pack Just takes getting used to. To my disadvantage I have COPD.
Oh that's too bad. The air pollution doesn't help... We take activated charcoal to detox
Today it's 19 degrees celcius in the Netherlands. Sunny but cold in the nights. Leaves are turning yellow and red slowly. 🍁🍂
Hello Netherlands!! Oh I bet that's beautiful. Cold, clear weather. Thank you for sharing!!!
We are thinking we will get our first snow probably mid October.?
Take care!
Thanks!
Thank you so much Carol!!!! ❤😊
Thankyou 😊
Thank you for watching us! Woke up to freezing temps this morning...here we go again! Lol
Minot, ND has been having mostly 70-90 degree weather in September. First week in October forecasted to have 60's and 70's.
Oh that sounds perfect... Is that warmer than normal for Minot, ND in September?
I think I am just used to the cold and freezing temps starting in September!
Thank you for sharing!!!!
We just had a hurricane pass by on other side of state, so it's hot & humid 93° with heat index 103°. I was lucky #13 to subscribe to Harley's channel 😊
Oh wow. That's crazy! Hopefully you can stay safe. Wow that's hot...
I do miss sweating. It's a great way to detox.
I seriously hardly sweat here because it's always so cold! Oh well...I need to get an infrared sauna!
@@Alaskan6pack I was gonna say you need a sauna 😊😉
Yes absolutely
I’m glad you’re doing a wood shed,,it seems too me if the wood is being cover than leaving it out to rot.
Yes the repurposed wood shed is nice.
We did have some issues with the floor after all the wood weight. However we did a fix that will work.
It has been a chicken coop for a while, so it had some wear and tear.
Thanks for watching! 👍😊
Anchor that shop car port!!!😇
Yes, we have to. The wind flipped one on its side a month ago. Looked like a huge beetle that got flipped over. Nothing broke so yes we learned.
Thank you for caring enough to leave a comment though.👍
South Jersey in the 70s but past couple days really humid. Soon it is going to get cooler, so like you my husband and I splitting and stacking wood we only heat with wood stove .
Oh cool! What kind of wood do you burn? We are mostly spruce and birch
@@Alaskan6pack red and white oak, and for next year several loads of cherry.
Southern California, near the beach, so weather is good.
Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing!!
It’s beautiful where you are. It’s 83 here today in Smithfield NC.
Oh thanks! Wow, 83 is a nice temp...
Probably shorts weather. I have not worn shorts since we moved here 8 years ago...Crazy.
We woke up to freezing temps this morning.... thank you for sharing!!!😊
@@Alaskan6pack I myself would rather be cold lol
I get it! 😊
Hi , here in the U.K. it’s definitely autumn , fall , temperature around 12 degrees Celsius during the day , seems to be very wet , occasionally windy , then turns dry for a day or two then back to more rain . Haven’t had a really cold winter with heavy snow here in England for a few years now , recently our winters seem to be wet and mild , last year I think we had one night of frost all winter . I’d love a really cold fall and winter , but it just doesn’t seem to happen here anymore .
Wow. Seems like the weather overall is changing everywhere. Yes I agree, a nice cold winter is kind of nice. Well, I will be crossing my fingers for you...thank you for sharing!!!
I was a 104 here in Scottsdale AZ today. Not a hole lot of frost on the pumpkin.
Wow! 104 in almost October....! I bet the winter is just perfect there...
We get down to -30 in the winter here
Thanks for sharing!!!
Hi Sarah. 68 degrees on Long Island, New York today. Having the mill covered will be nice to use it in bad weather. It's great how all the kids work together to get a project done. In the future do they plan on building their own cabins? Have a good week.
Oh ok, that's a nice temp... Thank you for sharing!!! Yep the kids are wonderful.
They actually get along very well. Yes with time and finances of course they will each have their own " space" & cabins
.... And they can have their stinky feet smell all to themselves!... Lol
Thanks for watching !
There are a particular pair of glasses available to use with ' Laser Levels ' that allows you to see the Lasers light during the daylight hours !
Oh no way... I didn't know that! How cool.
Thanks for sharing!!👍😊
Today is our last over 20 degree (+24) weather, it's going to drop to teens for the rest of the month now. Snow usually comes 1st week of November here in Central Manitoba Canada. 1st time watching your yt channel today.
Well hello and thank you for sharing!!!! Sounds like you are getting close to winter too.
Let me know when you first get snow! I have a few viewers from different places, we always share when our first snowfall comes
Thanks for watching us
Lily make sure your oil bottles neck is clean to keep dirt out of the oil tank. 😇Great 👍kids!😇!😇!😇!😇!
True! I will tell her. Thx for the tip! 😊👍
NW Alabama here. 80 degrees F. Cooling soon
Well that's a pretty nice temp. I think the 70's is perfect. Thanks for sharing!!!
We had frost this morning...
Hi Sarah, 60's in the morning, then back to the 90's in the afternoon. Guess where!! 😊
Oh my!! Aren't you in Texas?
@@Alaskan6pack yes ma'am 👍
Yeah!!
Southern California, Orange County. Which is south of Los Angeles. Temp has been in the high 70's to low 80's this past week. For the most part its been sunny. Next week the temps are looking to be in the high 80's to mid 90's. So, let's just say I'm not pulling out the long pants yet. LOL
Ha, I agree. Still sounds pretty darn hot!
Hard to believe, but we are still in the low 80's here in Wisconsin. I think you should have the kids install a snow depth measuring stick in the field for the winter!
Wow! Is it normally colder there this time of year? It seems like overall everyone has commented that it is warmer than usual all over
Yes I love the idea with the snow measuring stick!!! We will do that
@@Alaskan6pack correct. It's typically in the 60s. It's been warm and dry which has always postponed the arrival of the fall colors. Loved the intro pictures in last video.
Oh thank you .. we will hopefully have part 2 out this weekend! Take care
Also, I run the AC at night as the apt temp seems to rise into the 80's and makes for uncomfortaable sleep.
Oh wow. I bet it's uncomfortable... It's always so cool here in Alaska year round...I wear a sweatshirt even in the summer!
Thanks for sharing!!!
A teaspoon or three of mineral spirits will help prevent the canola oil from gelling to much.
Oh nice! I will let Jeff know, thank you!!!
Southern California, wildfires a d high of 102° today!
Oh my... I hope you are safe and wow that's hot!!!
I just seen your video pop up on my screen that’s funny
Just more winter prep-!😊
We are cleaning up from Helene hurricane in South Carolina.
Oh my. Our thoughts go out to you...Stay strong and we are wishing you well.
Hello from New Zealand! We're in Spring time now and the weather is warming up here with most days being around 17c. We get snow at my house in winter time but not as much as Alaska!
Oh wow New Zealand you are in spring!! Wow. Neat to know... well we woke up to freezing temps this morning...
Thanks for sharing!!! 😊
Do your kids go to school? Why do you have 2 houses to heat?
We homeschool all... we have two cabins. There is a video I think called Our Story. It has a picture of all of us in front of our cabin.
It tells a bit about our back story.
We moved from the city in 2022 and built the big cabin with a friend.
The other one we brought with us
We are hoping to build a shop next year.
I will try to send you the link for that video.
Thanks for watching!😊

Hello from Pollock, Louisiana it is 87% f here
Hello there!!! Ah that sounds nice...sounds like shorts weather.
I have not worn shorts for 8 years now! Lol. Oh well I knew what we were signing up for! Thanks for sharing!!😊
I live here in the PNW in Oregon we are still in the high 70s
Wow, that is warm for almost October! We used to live in the Beaverton Oregon area a long time ago.
I miss the big trees and warmer temps for sure
@@Alaskan6pack How cool! I've lived in Salem, OR majority of my life and love it here! Love your videos
Northern Sweden -1 celsius cloudy and wet
Whew! That's quite the combo. Damp cold. When we get that in Dec/Jan it makes your bones hurt especially at -10 F
Stay warm and thank you for sharing!!!
I enjoyed your content watching from the UK 🇬🇧. When do you expect the 1st snow and will you be ready?
Thanks for watching! So my family has our countdown going on...we think Oct 15th first snow
This week we will do lots more to prep
Everything gets harder once snow is on the ground.
I think we will be ready other than we may be 2 cords shy on the wood we need.
I will try to have part 2 out next weekend
Thanks for watching us!
108 here today. Indio California
Wow!!! So hot!!! Hopefully you have a good air conditioner. Thanks for sharing!👍😊
Watching from the netherlands it's been wet today and slightly breezey and cold .im in limburg near the German border. Xx ( I'm english )
Oh neat!!! Thank you for sharing! How do you like it there???
Here in Abu Dhabi the summer is winding up.
Thanks for sharing and watching!!!
Boise Idaho here. 92° Saturday 28,
Wow!!!! That's so different than here.
Woke up to freezing temps this morning.
The plus side of colder temps for me is I am going through menopause...so anytime I get a hot flash...I just step outside and it cools me right off in the winter! Lol
Thanks for sharing, hopefully you cool off soon😊
@Alaskan6pack yes starting Sunday it slows 🐌 down to the 70'°
Oh nice temps... 70s is perfect
89F at Merritt Island, Florida
Wow that's about 55 -60 degrees warmer than us! Neat. Thank you for sharing.
We are predicting mid Oct for our first snow here...we will see!
200 cords? Quite a bit of wood, how many cords do you go through a winter? Just subscribed, it was a good video.
Yeah!! Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Hoping for part 2 to be released tomorrow. 200 cords includes cords we have sold for firewood income too.
We go through about 10 cords a "winter" between our two cabins up here
Thanks for watching!!!😊👍
Why do you spit the wood this late? The wood cannot be dry enough to burn this winter? I usually spit my wood in March and let it dry at least until January, but normally, I let it dry under the roof for at least 2-3 years.
Pretty sure he mentioned he was cutting wood for next year trying to get ahead year by year
I'm from Georgia and our weather has been bad.i seen another video that a lady uses birch for writing on it for paper.
Sorry to hear about your weather. Seems like weather is extreme in many areas these days. Strange. Anyway yes Lily used to draw great pictures on birch bark. We actually make a birch bark tincture as well from the orange layer under the white paper part.
It helps with pain, headaches, etc....then we drink the birch water in the spring.
It's full of great minerals . The birch tree is full of amazing stuff
@@Alaskan6pack Thank you for telling me that. Tell Lily to show us on a video. I would love to see it. Y'all stay safe and God Bless
Got it. Thank you!!!
So how will you get logs into the mill if the carport legs are in the way? Thank you!
Great question. We just took two of the side legs off...actually like 30 min ago.
We are going to start milling tonight hopefully
You all are burried already
Waiting here for summer to go in maine. Man it's crazy. We usually have snow by now
Wow. Yes the weather is crazy. It doesn't make sense in places.
Well we are expecting snow in about 20 days or so.
That's when it came last year.
Thanks for sharing!!!
Might be even faster if the young fella would get off the tractor and help out!
True. However he does help out lots.
He is our farm mechanic and he fixes our machines which is nice.
He has a bad hip too, so bending over is hard for him.
Thanks for watching!!!
How many cords of wood do you think you can fit in the shed?
Possibly 3 or slightly more in that.
88 in Louisiana
88 sounds great right about now!
Nice. Thanks for sharing
Woke up to freezing temps this morning
doesn't beep when your leveld or not??
Hudson said it did not beep. It's more of a visual laser. And we only liked it in dim light.
well winters coming no yardbwork you guys unless u start n snow removal service lol
Yes... We are going to be putting up the lawnmowers and bringing out the snowblowers soon
Looks like sunbathing weather there... Don't know what all the fuss is about 🤭
Yes. Well if I could ditch the sweatshirt through the summer, that's a good start!
Thanks for watching ! 😊👍
Split a year out if possible.
Very good suggestion. That is the right way to think, especially here. Thanks for watching 😊
Here in Abu Dhabi the summer is winding up.
Thank you for sharing!!! Yes we woke up to freezing temps the other morning. It's getting colder here for sure
