I really enjoy the variety you showcase in your videos. I really enjoyed seeing Hunter with his BIG SMILE!
Mike, I was watching TTWT the other day. Tim and his neighbor Rex was talking about you and Hunter and paid you the most gracious compliment over your son. It did my heart good. You are a diamond in the rough with him. Thanks for the great videos.
John what’s TTWT? Thanks
Tractor time with tim@@timhilton5096

@@timhilton5096tractor time with tim
@timhilton5096 I wondered that too.
Hunter sure let’s you know how much he enjoys his Dad/Food run.
I have owned a few homes in my life. Living in Ontario Canada on the 49th parallel line the cheapest home to heat and cool was the one with the most insulation in the attic.
Hunter’s smile when you had just gotten back from his sandwich run lit up the world. Such a warm and beautiful smile! Mike, thanks for a great video with lots of variety.
I have always loved the silence you experience when walking in a large pine grove. It's like the feeling of walking into a cathedral, without the echos.
It all depends on what State or the weather. Example: In Montana the pines howl in the wind. It is very loud.
In West Virginia, it is so quit, (especially with the snow.) you can hear the squirrels walking on the trees.
In WV sound travels a long ways down the hollers, but in MT, WA sound does not travel very far.
I never really understood why. It must have something to do with the size of the mountains.
Good Morning Morgan family!
🍩🍩🍩
Nice pics of some great deer 🦌 and turkeys 🦃 you will eat good for the holidays !!!!
We always use our fan! It helps circulate the heat when we have our fireplace going. 💥
Mike, you and I are the same age and I'm amazed at the amount of energy you have. All you did in one day in this video would wear me out for the next two days. Way to go my friend!
That WV property is so nice. Love those shots of deer. Cool video 👍❤️
Always love the quiet walks in the woods. Now when i sit down the squirrels let me know that i am near their home. :)
Sheetz run, yeah buddy! I'd be right there with you guys! Hunt- Man ❤
Walking through those woods reminded me of the Battle of the Bulge from Band of Brothers. Waiting for the Germans to unleash on you!
Morning Mike from Canada.... about 39 today, hope to see a little sunshine.....
Pete 🇨🇦
Good morning Pete 👋😸
@@badcat4707 Morning my friend, having a 8x16 shed delivered today, will use it for a warm up shack in the woods....
Hi Pete, We have rain this morning, have me a good excuse to sleep in.
@@davidmorse8432 Morning David, absolutely....
My Dad was a carpenter, contractor, cabinet maker for well over 60 years. Mike you went the right road with not sealing the place up tight. My Dad would always say the place needs to breathe. You will get less mold and mildew because the place can vent/breathe. Also there is room for expansion, you don't need a whole lot but you need a little. So you did the right thing.
So that's where electricity comes from! Thanks for another wonderful video.
Thanks Mike For Bringing Us All Along with You Today !!
I have cameras out on property and I'm like you I just Love Getting pictures to my phone!!
Thanks Again!!
Keep Smiling On!!
😀👍👊❤️
🤠 Watching your skills with your equipment, I smile with the enjoyment of watching a master craftsman do what he enjoys.
Love the smile on hunters face when you showed him with his sandwich from scheetz. Nothing better than stalking deer with a fresh snow. Gun season is done here in Minnesota, now we’re muzzleloader for two weeks, and then archery till the end of December. The bucks are still on the move here, but they seem to have gone back to moving at night after gun season. Good luck
GOOOOOOOD
MAAAAAAAAWNIN
EVERYONE OUT THERE IN OWTM VIDEO LAND TO ALL MY FELLOW FANS/FOLLOWERS…🍩
Mike time is everything & never stops. I’d say it’s a good idea renting a much larger excavator is Smaaaaaht.
Thanks so much for taking us along hunting in WV. You’re the reason I have four SPYPOINT cameras on my property now 😂. It great seeing the wildlife. Wish I could show the brute of a buck I caught on cam.
Anyways….thanks again for sharing
Have a day
HELLOOOO Hunter 😊
Good morning Jack 👋👋😸
Hi Jack!
Mike has so much dead fall, he could have enough firewood for next year with just that wood. 👍🏼
Mike we have radiant floor heat at my pops house. In my opinion, it’s the most comfortable heat you can have. I can’t wait for you to get yours hooked up.
Good morning to Hunter 👋👋😸and family and friends 😸😺, I had a good chuckle hearing your plan about tricking the Deer , Mike 👍🙏
Hi BadCat!
@@davidmorse8432 / Good morning David 😸
MIke: I suggest using your own machine. Reasons: 1) Rental - you have long hard push days, hard on your body and mind. (Yours: You can take your time.) I run a lot of machinery - my guess is the big one will only be twice as fast as your current machine. 2) You will be surprised who the "large size" takes more time to pivot without damaging the trees you want to leave! 3) Watching your videos - you ENJOY taking your time, relaxing, and doing an excellent job! You will not feel the same - about running the big machine on a tight timeline. I almost NEVER comment - but you feel like a good neighbor, thus my opinion.
Gotta be a dream. Come true get to play with all the beautiful toys you get to love what you’re doing because it’s outdoors your own boss what could be better than this God bless you. You’re such a good man I love your show❤
The infamous triangle of Scope-Time-Budget, tough decisions to make on any project and only you know.
Hi Mike, I would rent a larger machine and strategically attack the project. Save the wear and tear on the Kubota. I know the Kubota could do the work but at the upper limit of its capacity. Ten years from now that Kubota will still be in good shape because of good use and judgement. Thanks for another very nice video.
Goodest Morganing!
Looks like a good day.
The best way to equalize the temperature in your game room and shop is to use the fan on the stove but also to use ceiling fans. In the winter you run the ceiling fans to pull the heat upward so you don’t feel a draft. It keeps the hot air from collecting on the ceiling and warms your walls and floors. Of course, the best way to warm your floors it to hook up your radiant floor heating!
Most ceiling fans have a reverse motion switch. But few people use them. Either way, they get the job done. Warm air rises and good air circulation is key to a comfortable home.
@@davidmorse8432 You’re absolutely right that many people don’t use the reverse mode. Both blowing down and pulling it up will work, but pulling up (the “reverse mode” as you note) if far more comfortable in terms of drafts . The other advantage of pulling the air up is that it more effectively distributes the heated air across the ceiling and down the walls, then into the centre of the room (or wherever the fan is) and back up again. I have heated with wood and used ceiling fans for almost 40 years with almost never using the furnace (except when I ran out of wood!)
@@profdave2861 I have used wood for heat since 1984. It is good for a person in so many ways. I prefer to split by hand as it is great cardio-vascular exercise. Storing, stacking, and fueling is also good to keep a person active. Inactivity is our nemesis, especially as we age.
Good talking to you Professor! 👍
West Virginia is definitely beautiful and has some really heavy/healthy deer! Good luck on the hunt
Thanks for the video i am a fan of a day with a variety of projects going on especially with some hunting and then bringing home a tree!!
People arenright about Vortex scopes and binoculars, they completely replace or fix anything no matter what or how it happens.
Hey Mike, my experience with heavy machinery is that you can save the wear and tear on your excavator by renting and probably save expensive repairs to yours down the road. I had a guy come dig 100 trees for me with a 35,000 lb. excavator in less than 10 hours. He didn't cut or pile them, just dig and push them. with your experience on one you can handle that job easily in less than a week.
You're right Mike. It's all about the insulation ,it's the cheapest way to heat.
Hi Mike, more of those walk and stalk videos please
I have a cell camera at home and at cabin year round.I am starting to enjoy checking them as much as hunting.
Excellent video mike cheers 🥂 😊
Mike, I watched all your videos for the last 5 years, I even went a few months later after you bought your excavator and bought the exact KX 57. I wish I knew the model number of your root rake. I need one just like that for my KX 57. Thanks Glenn Christian 🕵️♂️ 18:38
It’s a Werk Brau 24”
That train was hauling Electric Seeds :)
Electric car fuel.
Same way here, love to look at trail game pictures. Enjoyed todays video.
As efficient as you like to be, get the bigger machine. It would be a great time saver.
I would love to walk the woods in WV. It's so peaceful there. I can see why you two love it so much. Great pictures from the trail cams. Stay safe.
Morning outdoors fam👋👋
You know... Evan with the YT Channel "Country View Acres" installed a solar energy system with a couple of back up sources of power trying to minimize the amount of power he pulls from the grid. As part of his analysis he tested all of his household circuits to get an idea of how much power his various appliances use. To his surprise, his ceiling fans were some of the biggest draws of power. So as you do your analysis, be sure to include how much it costs to run the fan weighed against the difference in ambient temperature or whatever. I was surprised to see that the ceiling fans pull more than most of his major appliances (probably because he has these huge cathedral ceilings and so he leaves the fans running all the time versus using the stove or dryer or dishwasher intermittently.
I’m talking about the fan in the stove
“Hot goes to cold”
Round up your temperature readings, decimals doesn’t change anything for your comparison .
Basic thermodynamic understanding is a great tool .
Motor Mike, I thank god every time I watch your vids that some one is “planting” trees. Trees remove carbon and as the population grows there is more carbon produce. My family has planted over 5000 trees and still planting. Take and replace 10 fold.
Glad the messages got to you about the Vortex!
In my opinion Vortex 100% has the best customer service in the industry... Oh and great products too!
Vortex has amazing customer service... Had a pair of binoculars that broke a week into Elk season. Called customer service, the rep was super helpful, then when I gave him my address, he said "wait a minute, isn't it hunting season there?"... He expedited overnight fix. I called on Monday and had my working bino's back on that Friday. Vortex customer for life.
It would be cool if you did an episode on excavator and skid steer, and your tractors on maintenance, stuff like tracks. I’m sitting here watching the video wondering now that you had the excavator for a while how the tracks are holding up and when you might expect to replace Those and just a general idea of what somebody getting an excavator for use like you do might have to pay for maintenance costs. I think for the homesteader types your opinion on that would be helpful, it’s hard to gauge from a professional or industrial use because they use them differently and put a lot more hours on them.
Mike, you should have stock in Sheetz by now!!!! I really appreciate how you share your thought processes regarding planning for projects. I do the same thing. Nothing wrong at all with taking your time to weigh all the options! 👍👍👍
In my house the blower fan makes a huuuge difference. One thing about those lazers is shiny stuff isn’t as accurate. You gotta shine it on a no reflective surface
The fan will show it's different when it gets really cold and the wind picks up. Great baseline.
I daughter it more than once, Hunter's smile is do contagious its beyond words!!!! Give Hunter a big Hello
Hey Mike,
Great video, and thanks for sharing. Take care, all the best, and God bless.

Hey Mike, that big machine might be the ticket for building a boulder wall on that bend you're taking out. Will reduce the fill needed and you can highlight your operator skills! We all have learned a lot from your video's thanks!
Another fine instalment on the life and times of the Morgans. Enjoyed it.
Again another great video. I loved the walk through the woods in West Virginia! Good seeing Hunter looking so happy. God Bless
When you shoot temps of different materials, some of the differences in measurement can be due to the different radiative properties, not the actual temperature.
Thanks for the chat Mike,I would have laughed if a stranger had driven past you when cutting down the tree and shouted what are you doing,cutting down that tree in the dark.ha! ha! Take care till the next one.👍🤣🤣🤣
Your road looks great!! Can't wait to see the finished parkway.
Enjoyed the pictures from West Virginia. Those deer really look healthy. Have a great day Mike.
Vortex has excellent customer service and warranty, I had 2 scope that I messed up and they set me new ones within 10 working days, Bushnell as well
Don't you bait your deer, lay a pile of apples. I have always baited them and shot around 4:30 pm
Nice Vid! .. (Why Hurry, its about the Journey)
Good Morning Morgan Family 🌞- Have a Wonderful and Blessed Day 🤠. It’s chilly out here in Montana, but it’s been very dry. I have been considering buying a Kubota KX-80 for the business.
You're a great Man and you're always Want To Learn More 😂😂😂😂😂
Good morning Mike and Hunter, enjoyed the video . Started with the Huntman's Smile, and then the road trip. Everything is looking great at both places. Keep up the great work. Fred.
Great to see you enjoying your properties. Most scope companies replace them without an issue. It is the finest customer service experience and I am loyal to that company now. Good luck!
Hi John!
Seems like Melisa keeps that place spotless. Nice job Melisa!
Big Machine = great content! Would be cool to see the difference. ❤ the variety of your channel/day. Huntman loves those chicken sandwiches…good stuff. 🤙🏼🇺🇸
Great job looking great love your videos thank you
LMAO.. I really laughed out loud at the "I got 10 chainsaws at home..." I have lived that same feeling before
Nice content. U do what u do! We all dream to be free.
Ha! I “had” that same hoodie you’re wearing at the end of the video. I left it on my chair and my dogs converted it to a chew toy.
God bless all your hard work; you guys deserve all you have. Thanks for sharing shine on!
Good morning Morgans!
Stove: it looks like the air inlet for the fan on the stove is down at the bottom in the rear... so that much cooler air entering the stove is cooling the outside of the stove from the inside where it is circulating around the firebox.
I did it for hot water to take baths. Later hooked up the radiant heat. Toasty.
The Huntman looked like a happy camper after the Sheetz pickup.
Try putting a fan in the shop side on the floor on low speed pointed toward the living area. Might surprise you.
Mike your main source of income is making RUclips videos. An excavator that is three times the size, and therefore three times as fast as the excavator that you have, would force you to only make three times the about of videos. However, it would be cool to see you operating that beast back in the woods. Looking forward to what you decide. Great video thumbs up.
Mini excavators were never meant to be used for land clearing but as Mike has demonstrated, it can be done if one has the patience. If he rents a large machine it will be difficult to go back and use the mini again.
Good morning ! As always, I enjoyed the video , had some of everything I enjoy about your channel, but especially the walk in the woods on the WV property . Beautiful place to be ! Made me miss hunting here on our land in NY. It's full blown rifle season here..nice shots off the trail cams 👍👍👍
This is a good example of why I like OWTM - there are 5 or 6 different video subjects in this one youtube; planning a couple of different things, Hunter Sheetz trip, road work, travel to WV, hunting, etc. Except for the Hunter segment, you can find everything else elsewhere, and it will be well done, but they'll do just one thing. I'll watch them, of course, and enjoy them, but I'll watch the Morgans first.
Love the excavator watching way you handle it and with what it can do. If only 1 machine it would have to be the one of choice.
Making room for a batndominion Mike its a nice spot , away from the road nice and quiet🤓.Greets Henk from the Netherlands.
Run what cha got!
Mike if you enjoy trail cam footage look for Out On The Ranch, Dr Lee Carriker retired Texas veterinarian, puts up some great pictures.
Enjoyed the video, thank you Mike, all the best to you and your family
Thanks for the video Mike. All of my glass is Vortex for that exact reason. Love the warranty. I've had zero problems with my scopes. Let us know how it goes if you call.
The fan is for the circulation of the Heat circulation hope you enjoy it.
Sincerely!
R.S.V.
Wear and tear on the smaller machine is much more especially on the pins and bushings.
Mike, I wonder what a fireplace made out of stumps would look like. This could be useful for watching the clearing and making a fire.
I think renting the machine is a great idea. It will save wear and tear on your machine and it will be exciting for you and the viewers to see. Change it up and do it MIKE!!!!!!!!!
Awesome ridealong video, what a wildlife gold mine you have Mike, love you guys
Vortex corporate office is only about 45 minutes north of me in Wisconsin. I haven’t taken a tour of the facility, but it’s supposed to me nice. They have shooting seminars and other activities if you’re ever in the area. Most of the higher end optics companies have no fault replacement/repair warranties.
If u got the big machine knocked the trees down . Would u be able to get blueford back there . With a wood splitter and use blueford to transport the wood back to the wood bunker ?
This is your best vid ever!
Mike, I can only imagine your WV property with a couple acre food plot! WOW!
Love the content Mike. It makes sense to get a bigger machine while the weather is still cooperating and getting it done with less time, etc. I live in the Greater Toronto Area and its like a concrete jungle here. I moved up here in Richmond Hill from Toronto back in 1978. We still had open roads and no real traffic to talk about. With all the immigration our PM is letting in it's impossible. I miss the open spaces like you all have :)
Nice bucks on the camera network! Seems enough for the land parcel for years to come. Hope CWD doesn't ravage herds in either place. Go with the bigger excavator and get the job done in much less time and then cut as much firewood chunks for the splitter. Why not have a firewood "party day" and get all of those poles into chunks. Then, spend the whole day splitting while the big bucks walk by.
Great video!
Awesome video thank you
Hello Mike, love the channel and yes vortex should replace the scope. That is the main reason I go with them is there warranty/replacement.
