How did we get here?
After a year of full time travel living the van life, we had to adapt when the world changed. To keep busy we’ve converted our tiny house on wheels into a fully functioning off grid tiny house that has everything we need. Realizing that none of us know how long this new normal will stick around, we made the decision that building a home here was the best decision we could make. We've spent the last year doing EVERYTHING involved with coordinating and planning the build ourselves as well as setting up this off grid property to be able to provide us with the the food we'll need in the future. Hit with constant delays and building price increases, realizing our dream of building our own home has taken longer than anticipated. With travel starting to reopen again, we've learned so much about the importance of having a home base. and are excited to continue our build this dream here while also doing what we love most, exploring and seeing the world!

It’s hard to believe we have just a few projects left before our Geodesic Dome is finished…being honest, it’s been hard to find motivation to do much of anything the last week or so. With winter fully here to stay and the double digit negative temperatures becoming much more normal, all we want to do it snuggle up by the fire, eat snacks and drink wine…just wanted to share that incase you’re reading this feeling the winter blues, you’re not alone. Hope that you have a safe and warm week, can’t wait to see you again next Sunday!
Stay warm and safe guys .
Sending love from RI, we just had our Blizzard.
❤❤
I hear you...-27 means all I'm doing is making soups and stews and staying inside 😬❄
Sending love and sunshine your way ☀️❤️
Nothing helps to defeat the winter blues like Tyler and Todd saying gaping hole over and over! Love seeing you and the boys and the little girl all snuggled up and cozy! Stay warm!
There's just something so magical about your friendship, partnership, love and homestead. I'm so happy for you both and furrbies.
"Not a traditional house; nor, a traditional couple"! Died laughing on that one.... you both have such a fun way at looking at life; however, you still wear me out with all that energy. Best regards!!
Of all the channels I watch on RUclips, this one is the one that I just never get tired of. I think it is, no I know it is because Tyler and Todd are so upbeat, even when times are tough. It makes me smile, pretty much the entire way through every video. I have dozens and dozens of channels that I have followed and fell away from, but not this one. I wish I lived close enough to be able to visit you, but Kentucky is a bit of a trip. Keep it up, love your personalities, love the way you edit the videos, and really love the way you make me smile.
The two of you are so wonderfully connected to each other and the planet that everyone can easily connect to you. That must be one of the meanings of: When you change one person's life you changed the whole world.
Beautifully written. So true!
You know it's Sunday, when Tyler and Todd are on our screens. Having my snacks and going to watch the vlog. Love you guys. 😇 🤗❤💙❤💙
Literally me! Grab a snack as soon as i get the notification
You know it’s Sunday, when Tyler and Todd are on our screens and Todd is making Tyler blush with innocent - hah! - sexual innuendo.☺️
@@marirose19 Yes good one lol😉🤗❤️
@@visariosorino8034 😉
Todd: “Are we gonna fill that gaping hole Tyler?....with trim!”.
Tyler's thoughts: “Sure, that's what you meant!” 😂😂 Love you guys! You cheered me up when I was feeling a bit down. 💙
Definitely giggled.
Dooh!
I love it when Todd throws in the double entendres. And Tyler getting "flustered" is adorable. But I like how he "threw back" a little bit in this one!
You two are such a wonderful example of “living your best life!” Love, love, love the dome. Congratulations
I so look forward to Sunday’s with Tyler and Todd. Watching this journey with you is just so inspiring. Your positivity always makes me smile. ❤️
Me too! ✌🏻❤️
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍀🍀💕💕
They know what they're do'n...
21 minutes isn’t enough time with you two! I miss you all week!
Amen!
So happy to hear you're planning a vacation. If anyone deserves it it's you two! Recharge and come back refreshed and new.
I can see it's much needed. I don't mean that in a not nice way, it just shows you're human.
Great work installing the new wood burner.
Love you two so much! Proud of you.
Thanks Tina, truly appreciate it!
Just remember...you two great guys...is that life is a journey...not an end in itself. You have to live a very long time before you get the picture. At 82 and battling prostate cancer for the second time, it gives us a perspective. You two have so much to give to each other and that is the true joy of "togetherness". Never give that up. Cheers to you both.
This has been, and looks to continue to be, a very complicated “simple life”. 😊😊😊
This video is honestly the best thing in the whole week!!! Thank you so much for putting a smiles on our faces. Love you guys so much
Means more than we could ever say ❄️
I’m gonna be honest you two are one of the biggest reasons why I want to come out. I’ve been scared for so long and you guys are just showing me how great it could be not to hide anymore.
@@augusteschober4782 there is a whole community waiting for you. 💕
Go do it live your life not someone else's
@@augusteschober4782 Always LOVE YOURSELF as you are! 🌈❤🧡💛💚💙💜🌈
Love it all. I've noticed that I get emotional at least once in each of your videos, usually over different and surprising things. So nice to see Lillie getting screen time. More Lillie!
So well said! I get emotional at least once every video too!
You poor darlings. You seem so stressed, especially Tyler. I just want to give you both a big hug. I think you are doing an amazing job. You should be so proud of yourselves.
Tyler, Todd ... you are both amazing and put a smile on my face every Sunday. Thank you for being so Canadian! and not bailing on winter.
Todd. Your energy in this video is awesome. You are so sweet, and when you said "you're enough for me" Omg! Tyler is so lucky
It’s amazing to see the solar panels installed. I think back to those earlier videos when you were planning it, and clearing trees and now it’s finally in place. Fantastic.
The place is looking incredible guys, so happy you are getting to enjoy all the hard work you have put in to make the place home
I just love your personalities. You two were meant for one another and complement each other really well.
I enjoy watching you guys challenge your talents to the fullest. Keep up the great work.
You guys are definitely my favorite “non traditional” couple! I look forward to Sunday afternoons! Keep warm and stay safe!😀😘
One of the things that bind this couple like glue is their creativity plus their miles of patience in doing stuff from scratch. You go, Tyler and Todd.
To be warm in winter...so fundamental! Yet another challenge on the land has been met and overcome with amazing determination as we've come to expect :)
You guys are the sweetest couple! You home looks beautiful! So happy for the both of you! 🙌🏻💕🙌🏻
So, Tyler, here’s hoping that you filled the gaping hole after you got the heat turned on 🤭. Seriously though, I was wondering if the top of the wood stove gets hot enough to cook on? Maybe heat a pot of soup or whatnot, if not full blown cooking. I’m proud y’all got the new stove in and working as it’s way too cold to be cold… (think about that one lol). Keep up the good work, you have a beautiful place in the works and I know you’re thrilled to have electricity available full time now. Best wishes from the Bluegrass State down south.
Here-Here Lee. I was also wondering if the stove top could be used to cook or a least boil water for coffee and tea.
@@MrNucats and Lee Patterson, Living in Seattle when I lost power during winter ice/snow storm, I would cook on top of a Franklin wood stove. As a roast thawed out from the freezer, get the cast iron dutch oven out and go to work on a feast. Other items from freezer into plastic bin out side dining room door, so wildlife couldn't get to it first.
If the stove is cast iron then it should get hot enough to cook on top of it..
One thought is you might be able to make bake potato or vegetables by wrapping then in aluminium foil and putting them in the embers.
EXACTLY ... Why be traditional, when you can be you 💜
The drone shots of your area are so gorgeous. Those who live in the city do not understand what a blessing it is to live in the country or woods and experience nature and all it's glory on a daily basis.
The dome is coming along so well. The tile and LVP look amazing!
I’m so proud of you two. The channel is inspiring, informative and motivating. Can’t believe you’re in that freezing 🥶 cold weather & still smiling 😊, adorable & completely enjoyable. Thank you 🙏🏽 for everything.
Hi T&T!
I love you guys. Best wishes for your continued happiness and success with all your projects. Even though you encounter challenges, you always find solutions and , after all, that is life, right? You are so very fortunate to be able to be on this journey.
Continued success and love to you both and your beautiful, delightful furry family!. I always look forward to Sundays because of you. Thank you soooo much.
Means more than you know, thank you so much Susan!
I'm so happy Peter Monn talked about you in his RUclips videos! I have been laying in bed few days because horrible back pain and binge watching your old videos. You (and The land) have come long way.
I love how , whether a bed with a heated mattress or a brand new sofa, you can just hear your dogs saying , " Thanks Dads!"
Watched this sitting by my roaring fireplace. I could feel your cold!! It’s looking great! You are so inspiring!!
All I can say is "brrrr." I saw a bubble above Charlie's head that said "These guys are cray cray."
I adore watching this channel. All the creativity, intelligence, commitment, back breaking hard work, tenderness and caring that you both exude. Bravo on your adventure and continued support for each other and your adorable pets. Cheers to you both Todd & Tyler!
You are my favorite you tube channel. Hands down. Keep on making the world a better place guys! ✌🏻❤️👊🏻
I am so happy for you guys that everything is coming together for you in the dome! I hope it continues for you!
Not sure if it would work logistically with the electrical/skylight but Ive been thinking.. heat rises and you guys have a huge space to fill up there. Would a ceiling fan somehow be possible? On winter setting it would push all that heat down.
Anyway, so excited to follow along. You guys literally make my day.
Oh! I was wondering the same thing!!
Definitely in the plans, it will for sure help warm the space up even more!
@@tylerandtodd we have a fan in our Yurt and it's definitely helped to equalize our temperature throughout, instead of it being colder at the floor. We have a triple digital thermometer that measures high mid and low levels. Highly recommend.
I Am an 86 yr. Old grandma and just love you boys.
I love that you also show us the chaos as well as all the smooth times. That is every home project I’ve ever tackled. Lol. Very relatable content and I’m here for it! ❤️
I’m so glad you got your new wood stove. Being a Canadian myself l totally know the hellish winter we’ve been having. I looks amazing. One question though, isn’t there supposed to be a heat barrier behind it too?
I LOVE your new couch too even without the arms. 😉.
Have a great week and l guess I’ll see you next Sunday.
👍🏾💯❤️💯❤️💯❤️. Hugz
I was wondering the same thing. Worried their beautiful new home may go up in flames! Wouldn't want anything bad to happen to all of their hard work!!! Love you guys! 💛💛💛💛💛
I love how Lily watches what you are doing.
My horse lived on a farm that had a geodesic dome, and it housed the pigs. It was a gentleman farm, and the pigs ate the leftovers from the owner's tea room that he owned. My horse was completely freaked out by the oinking dome. 😂
For 13 years we've been heating our 1,200 sq ft craftsman cape with a 7,700 lbs Tulikivi. There's nothing quite as comfortable and yet alive as a wood-fired heater. Good job on the upgrade!
‘Beep’ the two just sitting there looking at the pan lol - honestly you are both so heroic xxx
Watching you guys is the end of the weekend treat here in London UK. We work for ourselves too, so although our projects are not so physically demanding, we know what the ups and downs are like.
So glad you have your new firestove installed, the space is coming up nicely - it's so aesthetically inspiring 😍👌🏾
Am binging Tyler & Todd this weekend
I think both of you are just a fresh air.
Love you both ♥️
Re: coffee maker, some credit cards have purchase protection. Might help if that’s how you bought it.
The dome looks great, y’all have gotten a lot of work done. Feeling like home! It does make it harder to get motivated when it’s freezing cold. Keep up the good work 🙂🥰❄
So difficult to feel motivated to get anything done but we’re trying our best to press on! 💪🏼
I may have missed your discussing the "inner" elements of the dome early on; however, your current task and resolution of heating the space raised a question in me about the "insulation resources" for the geodesic dome. I remember your talking about the under-spray foam having a "good 'R-value,' and I assume the floor, too, proves an effective heat/cold transfer barrier. What about the "walls"? How is that accomplished, and how efficiently does that seem to work? The windows are undoubtedly double-paned. What about the skylight? It appears to be clear plastic. Does that allow heat loss?
You two are my new addition. I love your loving, positive communication styles. Bunch of thanks for the heads up on "Better Help"
Magic, pure unadulterated MAGIC. You Guys are the Best Thing on T.V. My Best to the Boys and Lily.
Your videos making my Sundays better! :) Thanks for your positivity
Yup, my Sunday night is complete… having watched you guys ! Well done xx
I can't be the only one who wants to be friends, real friends with these awesome guys! Xo
I didn’t immediately recognise the thumbnail, but smiled when I realised it’s my fave
I knew there was something missing from my Sunday. How I missed you guys, I don't know. But now my Monday is complete, now that I watched your video. 🙂 So glad that you are going to take a vacation. Greatly earned. Have a great week boys & Lily. 🧔🧔🐕🐕🐈⬛
Thanks Terrie, truly appreciate it! 💛
Great work guys! Truly graduated to the “grandpa” wood stove!! Keep warm! ❤️
You two young men are courageous, hard working and very talented! I am a 69 year old lady about to retire (at the end of the school year). I love watching your videos!!! Elizabeth Clark New Mexico, USA
My partner and I had a woodstove when we lived on the hobby farm. It was a pain feeding it all night, but it became the heart of the house. We even put chicks in front of it during a blizzard. They all survived.
You guys have such a beautiful relationship ❤️ and creating a beautiful home! I find myself giggling along with you guys every few seconds!
First! Waiting up to watch this from England! ❤️
And Wales!
Hope you enjoy the episode!! Let us know what you think when you're finished :)
@@tylerandtodd much love from the pnw!
Love how cosy you all looked in front of your new fire, good job guys. Looking forward to next weeks update ❤️❤️
Netflix, puppies, lily in a Hot Connie must have been the best night ever !
I look forward to your video every Sunday evening. We are so proud of you both for all you have accomplished. Thank you for the wonderful entertainment.
I know it's Sunday at this time when I get to spend it with u two and the furbabies, love your videos every Sunday afternoon x
Always love watching you two every week!. Sending warmth from Florida!
It is not warm in Flodida.
@@ronwren1 warmer than Nova Scotia.
Mortgage free is the best ! Love your pups 🐾❤️🐾❤️
RIP, coffee maker. I hope it can be repaired. You've done an amazing job with your dome!
You guys really an inspiration! Everything seem so beautifully done, stove and the times and now you guys get the solar panel done too. Cant wait to see everything is done!
Your dome home looks so cozy and comfy, you guys really have done a fantastic job with this
I am almost 60 years old and have cooked on a "traditional cook stove" my whole adult life. I got an air fryer and it has changed my way of cooking for just me and the hubby. So enjoy I love your not the "traditional couple".
Счастья вам прекрасные люди живущие в прекрасной стране
I'm so happy the woodburning stove install worked out well, I was a bit worried about how close it was to the back wall, and if the piping was good... as my sis and I just did one for my parents home off-grid as well, so many specifications recommended that it can get intimidating, but it looks good! Beautiful life you both are living, glad I found your channel, my husband and I talked about building off-grid but we're super interested in your Geodesic Dome idea, as well. Thanks!
I can't wait until you guys get finished with everything; the final result will be awesome. Love you guys so much.
You guys have the only video anywhere I look forward to every week. I am so glad the algorithm popped your channel up. It's really helping me to keep motivated with my own projects. Your beards are sitting at perfect. Can't wait for next week.
It’s crazy how much I look forward to these videos every Sunday!!! I don’t look forward to anybody else’s weekly videos.
Thank you Elizabeth, means more than you know!
On Saturday I was looking for the video not realizing it wasn’t Sunday yet. Lol
Hauntingly beautiful❤️ love your story telling!
Thank you Peter!
We made a similar choice not having a stove when we remodeled our kitchen. We had a pellet stove installed and it took up a bit of space We had other appliances to use to cook with, also a BBQ on the deck.. 5+ years later we found a beautiful gas stove and it fit perfectly in our kitchen. With all the cooking going on, I think my husband missed the stove much more than I did! Congrats on the install of the Solar panels, very exciting!
I watch your videos during my depression and anxiety attack episodes. Thank you 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
I see Todd still spicing things up with his double entendres. One can't create with bottled up passion...let it bubble!
LOVE what you two are doing with your home….it looks so inviting! Really admire all the hard work you do and your great, positive attitudes! See you Sunday!
Gosh, your paradise-in-the-woods looks so inviting! I'm so jealous of you both with all of your fur babies all cuddling up. Wish I was there; it's started getting a teensy bit cooler down here, in Florida, but n-o-t-h-i-n-g like what you guys are experiencing! I so look forward to all your vlogs! Lots of love from South Florida!

Despite the constant setbacks, the sub-freezing temps, and the awe-shits that go along with all DIY'ers, just take a step back and look at what you two have accomplished. You both need to cut each other some slack and give each other a huge hug along with a gracious I love you too! Some day everything that is important will be finished and you can argue about what to do next. I am beyond proud of you both and I really do believe that you are both proud of the other. My point is simply that now is the time to say it, mean it and do it. Respect.
You guys are so accomplished..I love all you are doing . All you projects are so professional. You are both so good at encouraging each other.
I love it. It's absolutely gorgeous. I love the couch it looks great in there. Y'all definitely know how to decorate! I bet that stove gets it warm in there. It looks really nice. I'm so happy y'all will have electricity. and y'all definitely deserves a vacation. See you next Sunday. Pet the animals for me. They're so cute and sweet.
Thanks as always Donna 💛
Heyy guyss ❤️❤️
I'm so proud of everything you guys have accomplished so far !!
I can't it watch !
I got so happy when I saw that y'all posted
Lots of love to y'all❤️❤️
So much love back at you Solange!
Hi Tyler, Todd and pups, I have been following you for the last couple of months and I am in awe of ALL that you've accomplished. Your home is gorgeous and all that comes with it. Blessings always. xo
LOVE YOU GUYS, I JUST FOUND YOU GUYS A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. SO HARD WORKING. Can't wait to see all you do, your video's are so inspiring ,what a great life.
Do you worry about grease or other food particles getting on the fabric behind where you are cooking or preparing food being that you can't put in a back splash? Love your videos, and your family❤️
Was wondering that too when he mentioned about the water from the coffee maker spraying backwards
Super random question: how are the rattan/wicker inserts doing in the cabinets? I love the style and would love to know how they hold up for a DIY. Love you guys! My bf and I are obsessed
everyone's just happy to be warm in the RV
❤ 💙 💜
the new fireplace & floor & dome home is beautiful.
You still have to go back to the camper. Tonight I realized how cheerfully the two of you make me; just remembering the teamwork of my past lovers. I bet one of you has parents like mine were by accepting me and my mates GREAT.
Love the new wood stove! Looks so cozy. I was wondering, how do the solar panels work in the winter, with snow and ice build-up? Is that an issue?
You two are quite handy, are you sure you're not lesbians? 😄
I just freaking love you two and you home is so beautiful 🥰
Love your goldens 🐾❤️🐾❤️and of course your beautiful 😻 kitten ~
Not breaking barriers, fixing them my friends; healing them 💕🙏
I so look forward to Sunday’s with Tyler and Todd. Watching this journey
What a miracle it is to be able to find the perfect mate! Great to share all of your experiences! Love you boys!
T&T, you are Canadian Supermen! Week after week, you achieve the seemingly impossible as you carve out your homestead from the forest. Doubt I know anyone with the willpower and ability to overcome obstacles and meet challenges the way you husbands keep conquering a hostile environment. It's wonderful to be given a window into your remarkable life together. Until next Sunday, 🤗🤗🤗
