  • Going to Alaska is going to be a fun and exciting adventure and even though I will be gone for a couple of weeks at time I will still continue to work on the Log Cabin as much as possible. This was just an opportunity that I didn't want to pass up.

    About Me.
    In 2018 I decided to stop working for someone else full time and pursue my dream of building my log home and starting a small farm in the Ozark mountains. It's a dream that I have had and have been working towards for over 20 years, and due to life changes and unexpected events, I decided to make a leap of faith. This journey will not be without its challenges and setbacks, but I will continue to push forward each and every day to make this dream a reality. I try to upload videos 3 days a week but working mostly alone I am always pressed for time.

    Superb work on those walls. Crazy craftsmanship on the edges with the logs. Excited to see your adventures in Alaska. I have been retired almost four years. I do miss that paycheck but I really enjoy being able to do my own work at my place. Thanks for sharing.

    The infusion of income will be a blessing. So I suspect that your plans about moving in by Christmas will be delayed. What we don't know is really how far ahead of the home build you are at now. Which is okay. You film and work at your schedule the way you see fit. I am grateful for whatever you have to offer. I am glad for your new adventure. I can see me visiting (in the summer months) but extreme cold is not my idea of fun for any extended periods of time. I am a southern man.

    Take it man any work in Alaska is good money I have a feeling it’s in the natural resources industry...also if the job is what you specialize in you would crazy to let it pass...Alaska is an amazing place to experience my friend...best wishes man enjoy your time you have their and good luck with the job...I personally worked on off shore oil rigs in Australia for 15 years as a welder and rigger the three months on three off...it was an amazing experience that was very well paid but now I work inland having a small family and all but I sure do miss it and three months away from the family is too long...

Good luck with your work in Alaska, if you can video some wildlife while there, please do so. April, and the girls will have a lot on their plate with all the animals but I am sure that they can handle it! Hope you get that bobcat before you go! Keep us up to date... ...farm, animals, your new job along with April and the girls(maybe working the farm)?!

    You can make videos in Alaska and post them when your home. I’m sure a lot of subscribers would enjoy them, that’s if you have time. Yes you seem to be slow in some of your work. I guess that’s why the chinking and the the fit of the t/g boards around the logs look so perfect. That is the best looking chinking job I’ve ever seen. It looks like a painting.
    Be careful in Alaska, keep up with the news, cause biden might give it (Alaska) to the Chinese and they will not let you come back.
    You said this was the biggest bobcat you have ever seen, well 60 chickens should make a good size 🐈. Stay safe my friend

    Just stumbled across your videos. Awesome build! Enjoy Alaska! I’ve been going up there a couple times a year since 2014 working on snow removal equipment. My longest stent up there so far is 8 months. Every time I go it gets harder and harder to come back home to Arkansas/sw Missouri. Make sure to make some time to get out and explore while you’re there. Not sure what part you are headed to but it’s all beautiful up there.
