    I go back and watch your earlier videos of the farm, knowing what it looks like now, and I see the amount of hard work you've put into clearing the land, building new structures and killing that dang Wisteria. I know I keep saying it, but, you should be damn proud of what you have achieved. You make an old country girl, very happy. Kate from Queensland. OZ.

    That was so satisfying to watch. I remember when your neighbor loaned you his big tractor so you could clear the corner of the property for electrical lines. What a transformation!

  • @GailVaught
    @GailVaught 6 месяцев назад +2

    Considering all the work you are having to do, I will no longer complain about having to clean up my measley .39 acres. Of course I don't have a tractor nor a battery powered or gas chainsaw, but it is on my bucket list. I'm farming the city way; growbags and mini-greenhouses, one indoor and small walk in outside. Backyard has a septic tank so no gardens back there for me. I might just plow up my front and make it a vegetable garden since it hard to keep grass growing. But I love being outdoors though and need to finish up soon before the heat and humidity kick in.
    You are doing a great job Robert.

    I Love that old wall, and make the old Byrd farm look so nice, when it is not covered in that bloody Wesitera. So Happy you gonna address and fix it. You can see how the Westeria vines has started wrapping their vines all over and around parts of that wall. So good Job Robert, and your right is does looka better cause now you can see some of the back property as well, and connects it better.

  • @richardstoc

    Really love that old decorative Cinder block wall I hope you reconstruct as much of it as you can, maybe have a smaller gated entry and open at either end I believe that style of block is still available good job getting rid of the hated invasive weed wisteria

  • @charskene714
    @charskene714 6 месяцев назад +15

    It’s amazing how far you’ve come with the farm. You and your little orange tractor have done quite a job. I was just watching you working with it and I was thinking back to when you bought that old tractor. It would not have done the job that this little orange girl is doing.

    Wow Robert what a remarkable difference from when I first saw you sitting on the front step of the OBF ,SURROUNDED BY THST NASTY WISTERIA .It doesn't even look like the same place . I enjoy watching you working inside and outside .Its so fascinating seeing what you have accomplished in both areas of the house and land .Your Gramma would be so proud of you and I bet she is cheering you on .❤❤❤🥰

  • @Chaotic-Demise77

    As old as the Old Byrd Farm is I enjoyed today's work on the Ancient Ruins. Remembering the scrap yard that was on that side of the yard, I can understand why the wall was built in the 50s to hide it and make the front yard look better. Today, it's time to reveal the transformation. Thx for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us.

  • @tootsie2

    Oh the satisfaction I felt as you were pulling on that huge wisteria vine felt so good. I was saying, yeah! get it Robert!
    Yes, it looks so nice opening up that one area. You see other parts of the property that’s so inviting. Opening that up looks as if it was meant to be with that humongous pine tree.
    Now you just got to work on getting the wisteria that’s hanging around the brick wall.

    Never knew of your sentimental attachment to the wall before this video. Now I get it. Things are always changing. Alot of things from my childhood memories have changed which makes me sad. So keeping some of those memories alive in my book is a good thing 😊.

    I always can't wait for a new adventures on both channels. I'll tell you on thing you make me tired just watching you do all that work on the Old Byrd Farm! The transformation since you started is phenomenal!, I love looking at your garden. It's really coming along. I watched the video with you and Dan about the Sulfur Springs. That was just amazing!, Can't wait for the next video on that also, I truly appreciate all the hard work you do on both your channels. Also glad your feeling much better.

  • @missemily3264
    @missemily3264 6 месяцев назад +1

    It's looking real nice! It does really ooen things up. I think a picnic table is a great idea. Over time you could a barbeque or an outdoor kitchen space or even an opensided pavilion for shade/ shelter. What a nice space for relaxing with friiends and family. You could also extend the garden that way too. So many possibilities!

    No one wants to work and kids that will do the work want $20. An hour. Shake my head, Being in your 70's ain't easy!!!
