Building In The HOT Summer

  • It has been 6 years now since we had to start over after a medical release from the military. We moved off base and have been building our own home. We started off building the first section of our home. We are finally at the stage where we are building the extension. We also have prep work ready for the garage!
    Our names are Ashley & Jeremy and we are building a cabin alone in the Canadian wilderness.
    We're a couple trying our best to live a more self reliant life after a medical release from the army changed everything. We are currently building on a small mountain in the woods. We'll be sharing that and much more, so subscribe.

    All of a sudden you 2 seem to have so much more energy and that is wonderful.
    Getting the structures up and waterproof as fast as you can while the weather is good is a VERY GOOD STRATEGY.
    When the bad weather comes you can work in "sheltered comfort" which is far more efficient and pleasant.
    One thing I wanted to ask : How is your daughter reacting to the impending arrival of a sibling?
    She has been an "only child" for more than 10 years (guessing her age here) and the transition can be a little bit traumatic at that age.

    Ashley, your keeping fit by grabbing the rails and positioning them for the walls. Great job and you still look flexible. Smart move on your shower enclosure inside. Great thinking. I love the take out some trees for lighting and room to maneuver. Looking forward to your rafters in place. That will look awesome. Suggestion : If you have any galvanized pipe around. You can make a rail for Ashley to grab coming up/down the temporary stairs. Just buy a couple right angles or 45 deg fitting. I think RUclips has a pipe rail someone made and very cheap. Or I guess you could use 2 X 4 boards to make a simple rail to grab. Hugs from Santa Barbara. 🤗😘🙏👏😎🌹✝

    Hey man, I just stumbled upon this channel and it feels like exactly what I was looking for because I wanted to join the military so it can fund my dream of starting a homestead. I'm 19 and I got into the ROTP program for the navy as an NWO, starting BMOQ in the summer of 2025. But before all of that, I didn't even join the military for this life as I didn't even think it was possible for a newcomer to start a homestead from scratch and that I wasn't even interested in doing it since I just thought that the military was a good career to be in and progress myself compared to jobs in the CS (computer science) sector, which are oversaturated and hard to get a job in that field. Anyways, it wasn't until after a couple of months when I found a few homesteading channels like Gold Shaw Farm, White House on the Hill, This Off Grid Life, Hidden Spring Farm, and Bush Radical that I realized I hated modern life. I don’t personally hate the modern conveniences of it, but I hate the way we go about making our living. It seems so superficial and not tied to working for what we actually want, and personally, even before I found out about the homesteading life, I hated the thought of working a 9 to 5. I had worked in a job for the co-op program in my high school and worked for a teaching institution called Code Ninjas, and my experience with my boss and coworkers working there was great, but beyond the job, I wasn't feeling fulfilled because it didn't feel like I was building anything for myself when I was working at this place. Hating a 9 to 5 does not mean that I am lazy, I just don't like working for somebody else with barely anything to give me back in return. In today's day and age, you can see people with six-figure income high-paying jobs and still living unfulfilling lives, living as though they were never present in their experiences, always buying expensive clothing, going to clubs, and filling their void with those things. And those are the middle and upper-class people; the lower class doesn't even get to participate in any of that. It is obvious that Canada is a broken country in that it has overpriced groceries and inflated real estate prices, not to mention the exorbitant carbon tax imposed by the government that makes it barely habitable to live a modern life in Canada. This is why I was really drawn into this lifestyle and wanted to grow my own food, build my own house and utilities after my military contract ends. I thank you for showing how the homesteading life can work for a Canadian vet.
