You have come so far from the wheelbarrow and spade days when you cleared the basement. I loved the scene with all the equipment going in every direction. The sped up motion made it more enjoyable.
My son, who works on water wells for a living, and I were talking about your well problems. He feels like you need to have a good cleanout done on your well. He thinks you were not getting ground water before it dried up. The water was built up on top of the sediment from rain before the well was covered.
It doesn't look like the well was much deeper than it is now when it was last used though. In some of the older videos you can clearly see an old submersible pump that was pretty much completely above the water.
@Ragnar8504 my son explained to me that old wells collect sediment and the pump is typically moved up for years upon years until the well becomes unusable. Of course, he hasn't seen this well and could be wrong but a cleanout is probably the least expensive way to find out. I like his plan because it would also rule out or find a collapse.
I come and binge his videos after waiting for a few to post. I have no problem with his “inconsistency” personally. What he is doing is hard and time consuming. Most of his viewers know that. Keep up the good work Dan! What you are doing is amazing!
Sees title, thinks 'What are you doing, man! Get back to work!' Has another sip of whisky, watches video, is happy. Daily dose of fresh air. Thanks as ever Dan.
Having Nick and Cameron back, all the equipment going in, the doggies racing around is so exciting. Getting rid of all the yuck in and around the pool, yea! Your progress inside the chateau ,it's all important. Thank you. 🎉❤🎉❤😊
Good morning Dan, Nick & Cameron. Nice to see the doggies doing their job of supervising the work. Looking good there fellas. When is your workshop going to being installed. Looking forward to seeing all the tools you’ll need to do this epic job ahead of you, certainly will make the job easier for you.
I wonder if they're going to jump into the pool on a hot summer day. I have a dog that did that. Snow, water, Or the ocean. It didn't matter. They come up running with me with a big smile on his face. And then stroke out. Water driplets all over my clothes. 😂😂😂
@@PreservationEnthusiast I bet he would, if he could. As he said at the end of the video: Still waiting on the roof-wood. And without that..... well, he can do other things while waiting.
@@CalebBlackhand It's not just the roof timbers. There are other things that can be done at the higher levels of the chateau. They need to focus on that area. Repairing high level brickwork etc ready for roofing. Only thing is, it may be too cold for mortar at the moment, but as soon as it isn't, he needs to drop back full time on that.
The dogs are comic relief in every video. Run here, then there, no wait....gotta go back again....or...maybe over there ...now what was I doing??? Oh yeah...running for no reason. Love them!!!
Anna is one busy pup!! She never walks anywhere!! I noticed too that she runs behind the tractor. Their breed are really smart dogs. Elsa seems to be more laid back. Love seeing y’all working on different fronts tomorrow.
Ahhh....now you're cracking on even more with Nick and Cameron there for a longer period of time doing what they do. Hope the roof wood comes soon Dan!
Nick you look like an interesting history professor with your glasses!! Good job cleaning up Dan as you wait, it’s not fun, but it’s worth it! Cameron, those dogs adore you!
@@jimcarlisle2309he’s spending his time and money on his property. He talked about the timing of the season to remove the trees and roots around the pool. Nick knows what he’s doing so I’d be listening to him. And we’d have fewer videos if we waited the way Dan has to wait for materials! The roof is in progress and it’s going to be the literal crown achievement when it’s up!
I am so glad you all found each other. You work so well together and just get on with the work and from what it looks like, you agree or work it out and are willing to do the work. The mission is the journey to enjoy. Plus, you all made a similar choice in moving from England to France, so you all understand each other and the big decisions you made. This is going to be a chateau to remember.
That pool has been inoperable a long time. I remember reading a memoir of one of the rescued children who stayed there. They said they had never seen the pool. Probably overgrown and not something management wanted found during the war when they were just trying to care for children, keep them alive and safe from multiple dangers.
I seem to remember Dan reading a story about some of the kids desperately trying to get the pool to hold some water so they could cool off a little during the hot summer days. I'm not sure how accurate the book is that he was reading from though.
@@Ragnar8504 But your memory may be more reliable than mine. Or, since I thought I had read mine, maybe two different accounts. Won’t it be fun if other memoirs turn up? I keep thinking how disorienting the whole thing must have been for the children. And it would be fascinating to find memories from the families of owners or staff at the chateau…
You are in my thoughts and prayers, always. I had to cancel my Patreon account,sorry...I am not the first new widow who finds she is without finances and the bills keep coming and I won't be the last..but it hurts! I am back watching your brave efforts and know that I still care about your great project.
My husband and I have watched you lift and shift all those blocks of granite and we are praying for you and your back. Take some rest days when you need it, OK? We really have enjoyed the amazing progress you have made on this unbelievable project. Just, WOW. We really enjoy your optimistic humor too. May God speed and keep you strong and healthy. 🙏🏻❤
Oh, those doggos are having fun again. No chance of them getting overweight is there? Nick is a great expert to have sort out the swimming pool. He can interpret what has already happened, which trees to save and how to improve the landscaping around the pool. Really good insights into your process dealing with the interior of the chateau too. Onwards Mac Dan!
Makes you feel nostalgic, looking back on the fireplace plinth being knocked out. Just shows how far you've come, Dan. ❤ Love the Professor Nick look! ❤
Dan, do not know if anyone has told you Nick & Cameron this lately but, what you all are doing there at the Chateau is truly admirable. It warms our hearts when you mentioned your forethought was to bring the Chateau back to life as an Artist Instructional retreat for young artists. That is why we hang on and cheer you guys with every episode. Thank you, Thank you & Thank you.
I always think of pools as something you love when you don't have one. The cost of heating and maintenance is exorbitant. Maybe Dan could cover with a glass structure and make an underground greenhouse for winter vegetables (I’m sure the frontline there is no more than 1-1/2 feet) 👍
@@EthanLomas Surely this was an unheated pool and solar heat is free. Granted, this pool is much bigger than my parents' but theirs isn't all that expensive to run. Solar heat, some electricity for the pump, some chemicals. I wonder how this pool originally worked, surely it wasn't a chlorinated, filtered pool back in the early 1900s?
@@EthanLomas Given the rustic nature of the old stone walls, I imagine it will end up as more of a "frogs & turtles" landscape feature sort of pool, rather than a sterile suburban tub of chemical soup. I'm excited to see either way though :)
A new project for me is building a bit of fence or cutting back shrubs. You on the other hand turn your hand to the most amazing tasks. I’ve endless admiration for your efforts.
Good afternoon team Dan ❤ Coming in from a super hot 🥵 summers day down here… Fabulous to see Nick and Cam’s back …. Bothering sucker tasse’s over waiting for timber but it is what it is…. Sometimes down the line from now the poor Dilapidated pool is going to breathe life once again ❤❤ That mill is going to be a game changer!!!!😊 Great days work guys … see you tomorrow
The sequence of work is always an interesting part to any job. I love how it all has been thought out,step by step, when to do things. No time wasted. Carol from California.
V206: Will be amazing to see that pool restored and filled again one day. It was once full of happy rescued children laughing and splashing about! When the chaueau is completed it would be wonderful if you could locate one of the children who was saved here - maybe more? Have them 'cut the ribbon' for the grand opening? If only Chaumont could talk.........
There are stories told by those survivors that can be found on the internet, also about the pool. The pool wasn't working any more at that time when the children were there, and some children tried to fix it but it couldn't hold water any more. They did go to the little lake further down the road.
Binge watching while having COVID, there’s nothing more uplifting to a sick bed than to watch someone that has passion in a project. Thank you for your inspiring videos.
Whoo hoo Nick and Cameron are back. I wondered why you were working inside, I must have missed you saying you were waiting on wood. I am looking forward to you having that workshop. No more dodgy ramps, lol, though I secretly loved watching that. 🧡
Looking forward to seeing the Mill in action. Fantastic to hear and look forward to seeing what gets manufactured from it to be repurposed at the Chateau. Awesome team
I started watching your videos about a month ago. At the end of last week I went back a year, from the beginning and watching each video a few a day until I watching them all. You are hard working and ambitious. I wish you the best of luck in finishing your château. Just take it easy on your joints. Don't over do it. Also, did you have the château blessed? It did suffer a tragedy and any negative energy it might hold should be released. Just a suggestion. Thank you for the content. Good morning to you.
Thanks for sharing another productive day it will not be too long to see your vision of the grounds with Nick and Cameron working with your own sawmill set up to clear the land of unwanted trees that hive no benifits to the property! Sweet dreams the dream team going feel like minus 30 in the morning wed in southern ontario canada stay warm! 😀😍
Bless your heart Dan. It’s SO wonderful to see you getting the new equipment!! If the world had more people like you, Nick, and Cameron it would be such a better place for us all. Keep up the amazing work and know that your all appreciated very very much!
That was NOT Boring - it was Great Progress of Clearing - well done ! Saving the old Swimming Pool - that will be a Fantastic Project of Clearing and Restoring - cant wait ! Many Cheers from Australia !!!!
Nettoyage, encore plus d’espace ! Super vidéo 👍🏻 De supers projets avec Nick et Cameron 💪🏻👍🏻… et les chiens 🤭 Ce sera déjà joli au printemps !! À bientôt ! 🌸🌸🌸
Nice to see the switch up for things happening around the site (especially the pool) but sorry to hear abt the delay on roof timber. Somehow missed the fact a mill was going in! Great to be able to utilise your lumbar that needs to be removed.
Exciting to see the progress on the Chateau and it's grounds. Dan, Nick & Cameron you are doing a great job! Moving along fast too. The mill will be a good addition. I look forward to your next project. A old stone swimming pool very cool. 😊
I live in a 280 y.old granite nobleman's home in NW Spain. We have a very similar "pool" (lined on the side &floor with stone) to this, but it is NOT a swimming pool. Rather, a natural spring runs into this area, where water is accumulated (roughly 60k litres). The water can then be released under pressure via one of 2 drainiage holes +/-25 cms. dia. located in one of the vertical walls, at the base. Surrounding fileds located at a lower elevation can then irrigated at will. My counsel is to go slow at the baseline and look for the holes-- there may be roots to a wayward tree growing into the hole, so try NOT to break the stonework when removing. Good luck.
Even if you repurpose the stones in the pool area and put in a pool to code, that would be such a nice addition to the Chateau for guests. (If you turn it into an inn or something)
The garden will be established has your renovation coninues, you have amazing soil beneath all the cleared area that should give all the new plants a good start. Cant wait to see the roof going on. Be safe.
Would love to see more pics of what that pool area looked like "in the day" / the time " before". Great to see helpers back. You guys are just banging it out! Well done!. Again, thanks for sharing the journey.

I was thinking myself this is a 5 year job doing it mostly alone. I hope he doesn't burn out before it's done
@@carrieschwenk5890 My hope is he get volunteers and helpers in near future to get more hand on deck. 🙌
I hope we all can follow him/them on this journey ❤
@@kaerscarface I agree !!! I have a good feeling about Dan. He's always been a hard worker.
If you could rebuild it and get a roof of some kind over It for all year use this would be AMAZING
It will be interesting to see the real condition of the pool walls once all the trees are cleared off.
A pile of rocks.
walls are gone. Pulling roots will destroy them.
Yeah this just feels like cutting down trees for the fun of it
Maybe clearing the walls and rebuilding it
Je pense que le toit du château est bien plus important !!!!!
You have come so far from the wheelbarrow and spade days when you cleared the basement. I loved the scene with all the equipment going in every direction. The sped up motion made it more enjoyable.
Dan that soil is black gold! I know you’re going to do wonderful things with it!
Nick's back on the excavator. All is well with the world.
Good to see Nick and Cameron back, the doggies are excited to see them as well !
Is it me or have I just be seeing just one doggie the last few vid's?

Sees title, thinks 'What are you doing, man! Get back to work!'
Has another sip of whisky, watches video, is happy.
Daily dose of fresh air. Thanks as ever Dan.
I could listen to Nick talk about the trees and the forrest all day. Love learning new things from him.
Nick was talking about doing his own channel talking about tree management , had he done one yet does any one know ?
Si could i, he is a real landscaper. Dan's lucky to have mates like them. Really a great team.

Don't get sidetracked on the pool Dan. It needs both you and Nick working on the upper levels and roof now. Start getting the chateau watertight.
@@PreservationEnthusiast I bet he would, if he could. As he said at the end of the video: Still waiting on the roof-wood. And without that..... well, he can do other things while waiting.

Actually, a pool in the woods gathers many leaves and requires so much upkeep.
@@ceeletter5772true!
@@ceeletter5772Dont be so negative... 😊
😂 I just thought: cut all the trees! They look nice but all the leaves... oh no.

I live in a 280 y.old granite nobleman's home in NW Spain. We have a very similar "pool" (lined on the side &floor with stone) to this, but it is NOT a swimming pool. Rather, a natural spring runs into this area, where water is accumulated (roughly 60k litres). The water can then be released under pressure via one of 2 drainiage holes +/-25 cms. dia. located in one of the vertical walls, at the base. Surrounding fileds located at a lower elevation can then irrigated at will. My counsel is to go slow at the baseline and look for the holes-- there may be roots to a wayward tree growing into the hole, so try NOT to break the stonework when removing. Good luck.
Thanks for the message on the community page. Looking forward to the next video. (Dan said in the next 24 hours). ❄️🌨⛄️
Inch by inch...but really you've accomplished so much already and a saw mill, how exciting and firewood and mulch...fun stuff...!
Even if you repurpose the stones in the pool area and put in a pool to code, that would be such a nice addition to the Chateau for guests. (If you turn it into an inn or something)
So exciting Dan, 'stuff' is really happening on lots of fronts now!
Wow the grounds are really changing for the better hopefully the pool walls will be fixable and the mill is ready things are rocking and rolling ❤😊
Worst case rebuilding them from scratch is a lot of work but far from impossible.
So much getting done 👍🏽
Love it! Well, not the well going dry. But love the progress!
The garden will be established has your renovation coninues, you have amazing soil beneath all the cleared area that should give all the new plants a good start.
Cant wait to see the roof going on. Be safe.

Wow Dan the equipment is really getting better 😂❤
My wife said Nik’s a real
Man reading instructions lol 😂 and great to see Cameron back.
We both look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow. Keep safe.
I absolutely love my HM126 mill. You're going to have a blast with yours; and save a ton of money on lumber. I look forward to seeing you use yours.
interesting the well dried up.
restoring the wall around the property is going to be exciting!
