Do you buy drinking water?
I certainly envy you and your wife. I'd be living almost exactly the same way if I won the lottery in a heartbeat. Probably somewhere in Ontario or Manitoba.
Hi Russell and city girl. I'm a brand new subscriber and I just wanted to say I love your video's. I've been watching Shaun's from my self reliance more or less from the start and just came across yours 2 days ago. The concept of what you're both doing is more or less identical, 2 guys with dogs living their best lives building cabins in the wilderness. AWESOME! I've been watching several of your videos over the past 2 days since I joined and unless I've missed it by mistake I have an idea for you.
Your cabin is a lot lot bigger than Shaun's and built completely different too, however, why dont you do a video tour of your cabin? Like a complete cabin tour. Especially showing the inside and how your living? A lot of youtubers when they move house all do a house tour of their place and they are SUPER POPULAR. Basically showing how you live, how things operate like the solar system and how appliances are run , plus a general look into your world of living. Oh and 1 last thing............I absolutely love your sense of humour Russell, its AWESOME. Thanks for making these videos from a new fan from Bedfordshire UK ❤
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin hello i pray all is well with you and your family ! for about a year now i been having the urge to move to a super secluded area grow my own food can u give any tips on how to look for land i really wanna be in the mist of the tree's it look so peaceful>... i hope this message reach you>. have a great day
good on ya you 2,happy and smiling, here in the city of sydney wetern suburbs and south west, australia are surrownded by many JUNKEIS, they live like pigs, unclean, garbage never just to empty then, especially units, bad languagues, noisy and god knows more what, if i only came to that beautifull place loll, i born in malta, but unfortunately, i can not live in the winter, to cold for me,wish u all the most happyness in your lives u two, cheers god bless you both,
Bless you for carrying us away to a beautiful part of the world right now.
You're welcome, Olga. Stay tuned, more videos to come.
I absolutely love the video not quite finished but needed to comment on how wonderful the scenery looks and the place your building looks like a home not just a cabin. Look forward to seeing more of your content!
This is a fun video. Takes forever to put together, but the result is nice. It's one of the few videos where you can see all of the seasons.
I like this video with all the different months. The different seasons were great to see. Thanks for sharing.
Dude makes some excellent meals. Ave Marie is perfect hymn for those surroundings.
Great vid, beautiful place, relaxing and stress free
Thank you Russell. You really know how to capture those iconic soothing moments of Canadian wilderness. You did it over and over again. Reminds me of the Group of Seven. Thank you.
I am just blown away by the beauty and tranquility of your place there. You are blessed!
Greetings from remote Alaska. Hi Russ and City girl, I really enjoyed this video, you guys did an excellent job.The drone footage is excellent especially, at the 40:01 mark, it is beautiful. What I really enjoy is the sweetness between you and city girl out walking and holding hands, a real show of love. The 180 acres you bought is a perfect place to live. Russ, your antics really add a lot to your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the comments John. That bit at 40:01 is from this video, I'm sure you've seen it: ruclips.net/video/XXCtI3cVY98/видео.html
I watched this whole video, loved it and lived vicariously through you for a moment. As someone that wants to live this lifestyle but may not ever get to, don't take it for granted.. ❤️
Thank you for these videos.
Thank you Russell and City Girl; i needed a peaceful quiet channel and the pups.
Bill this is one of my favourite videos.
what a beautiful scenery, how I wish I was a lot younger then so I can do what you were doing but you watching your video is very much intertaining, thank you brother for showing as a very peaceful place. good luck to your new projects.
Great video Russell and Alicia...such a beautiful property and great to see you together in these troubled times enjoying your beautiful property and the freedoms of nature!
Thanks John! Glad you enjoyed it.
Light rain and relaxing on the porch, wonderful!
Someone else mentioned the natural setting steals the show. All of the drone footage is awesome showing the changing seasons. It gives me a feel of what it is like to live and walk in the Canadian forest in the rain, snow, heat and surrounded by those darn flies. Toward the end when you ran to hug Alicia, well it brought tears to my eyes. Lucky folks living their life in the wilderness. Being locked down at your place is a dream, enjoy being present with all the beauty of nature. I saved this video to view again.
Aw Pat, very nice comments. Thank you very much. Glad you enjoy the videos.
what a beautiful place I am envious. I would love to live in a place like that. so peaceful
Yeah i wonder how much a place like this costs and how many acres it is
Most enjoyable. Thank you! I never fail to enjoy a chuckle watching your antics!
Thanks Glynis!
Great montage of this past year of great memories thanks Russell and Alicia.
Thanks Mike!
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin You are welcome.
Hey Russell! Hi City girl! I had really enjoyed this video before and I stumbled across it and had to watch it again!! So peaceful in a rushing world! Thank you for bringing to sooo many of us a beautiful moment in time! Happy Friday! Hope to see you tonight. Hugs! Liz
Thanks Liz. This is one of our favourites.
Love what you do I am about to start my journey soon I can't wait .... attempting to live in Maine off grid living sustainable and hopefully developing the land to the point that I can open it up to others and begin a self sufficient sustainable community 😀 its a big dream but I hope to make it happen one day !
What part of maine?
Good luck my friend, and look into permaculture.
Do it! I'm 72 years old now, and I want to move to Maine so bad! I don't think I can do off grid at this stage of the game, but I sure wish I had done it when I was younger! I'm still looking to buy a cabin near a lake, even though it probably won't be off grid. I live in Missouri now. We get snow, but not as much as Maine. I stay indoors when it snows most of the time, but in that beautiful untouched snow I know I would be outside sometimes! Good luck to you with your dream! I'm a woman who loves to fish, cook, bake, garden, and do crafts. So I'm sure I would be just fine! Learning to adjust to the land is so important! Treat it right and it will treat you right! I do permaculture organic gardening. I get massive amounts of produce sometimes!
If your looking for help let me know. I was thinking of now is my time as well. Ready to jump in.
I came across your channel and love the tranquilities. It's so peaceful, and relaxing.
Hi Russell, Alicia, Willow and Junebug. Greetings from Edmonton. 😊This was just the fix I needed today. I am sick with Covid symptoms and down in the dumps because I have to self isolate 😷 some of the scenes in this montage are absolutely heaven! I miss the smells after a hard rain out the bush...there’s no perfume like that anywhere. Of course how can anyone not love all the wildlife flora and fauna...so beautiful. Thank you and stay well.
Kelly haven't heard from you in ages. How have you been? I mean other than this Covid crap?
I'm still here been watching your vids all along. Life gets busy and we forget what's important. Your vids, especially now, put everything into perspective. You were very wise to set you self up out there. I'm so glad you are all together for awhile.
@@KellyAnderson-qn3mf Well it's good to hear from you again!
Beautiful little lake, can't wait to get to this point in life with my Fiancee. Thanks for the great content, keep up the amazing work.
Thanks MG! Hope your fiance is up to the challenge.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin You're welcome. I have no doubts in her, she's a very strong woman and already has a great love for the outdoors.
Hello Russell and City Girl. What a great antidote to a cold rainy morning here in SW Ontario. Absolutely wonderful job putting this video together. Thank you and stay well at the cabin.
Thanks Jim, I hear the rain is moving our way. I got my barrels set up!
So nice place to live with nature....really will experience the 4 seasons of the year unfolding before your eyes...,,will wake up with the chirping of the birds...the graceful swimming of the swans by the lake........I love it...keep it up.....
Thanks Fred!
LOVED this - so many great memories.
Thanks Kathryn.
This would be so amazing. Thanks for sharing. Northern Minnesota here
It's a trade of the cute otters or the fish,we have a pond that the otters wiped clean of the channel catfish, still have some bass only because they are a little faster!
Great recap of your year Russell 👍👍👍
LOL why are you watching this one? It's one of my favourites, btw.
Totally enjoying your videos beautiful scenery take care blessings 👍😻🙏
Hello Russ, I always look forward to your channel. Your easy going and sometimes comical side of what your day to day life consists of, I find to be very heart warming and inspiring. Its just what some people need, especially at this time in our world. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the comments, Troy, that was really nice. Glad you enjoy our videos.
Thank you! Wonderful to watch live before Corona. Stay safe out there!
Thanks Sigrun! Stay safe yourself!
Thanks so much for the longer video Russell.
It helps alot right now. 👍👍👍
Doug, try to stay positive. We're going live tonight, maybe that will lift your spirits.

Beautiful place, when the snow is gone!
Forest, lake, off-grid... Amazing!
Your gorgeous environment is just mesmerizing!
From Walt & Robin, We love your channel. You entertained many of our moments in this crazy world. We thank you and City Girl for sharing and entertaining us. Our LOVE goes out to you. 😎🍰🍦
Thanks Walt & Robin! We love when couples watch our videos together!
Wow its a very wonderful & peaceful place 👍👍
Great video Russell, my wife and I always look forward to them. We are building a cabin too. Ahead of you on the exterior, behind on interior. But like you guys - it is our happy place
Thanks Meritt! Make sure you take lots of video.
Wow amazing to see the land without any snow. I first subscribed to your channel when you were in the middle of the dead of winter. Now I get to see this one when it’s probably spring.
This video is an entire year, and it's one of my favourites.
Love this compilation Russel,spent time with the grandchildren not far from your place they are learning more in the woods than they would being school.
Thanks David, it sure is a learning experience out here.
A very good year indeed,the snow shots at 40 mins in,still, just, Wow!
That's one of my favourite videos.
Amazing footage and hats off to you all the work you've done on your own. The cabin looks amazing and everything around it all done you inspired me hopefully one day I can live the same dream
Loved your videos... Stay safe you and your family... God bless!
Awesome thanks Russell and Alicia. Have a great weekend! 👍💯
Thanks Mary!
You and your sweetheart cuddled up by the fire is precious and lovely.
You two are living the dream :) I just wish we had places like this here in Denmark, I’d be off grid by now.
Very Good Place For Cabin
What a peaceful beautiful place.......a dream for anyone to have. 😎
Your certainly living the dream russell for sure x a beautiful setting must be amazing to see the seasons changing before your very eyes x always love your videos your so funny and your dogs are so loyal x pea soup russell x
So beautiful snow
Thanks. Have you seen this one? ruclips.net/video/XXCtI3cVY98/видео.html
I'm waiting to be invited to supper!! Everything you guys cook looks delicious
Your videos has a calming effect on me, and entertaining too..
God bless, all are amazing,wish you and your family more happiness.
Gr8 video, Russell👏👏👏👏👏‼️
Beautiful country!
i watched the whole video. I enjoyed it so much. It looks so peaceful there. I just found your channel and I subscribed. Thank you for sharing. I hope you have and your wife have a wonderful week.
Very good. Beautiful place.
Wow. It's alot of snow in winter time. But it is so beautiful.
I did a Shawn James binge, no comparison to the Raspberry Rock bush comedy. Your foolishness helps replace some of these difficult trying times. Cheers.
We're very different people building very different cabins, but living oddly similar lives. He's a great dude.
TJ Miller is a great dude!
Thank you for the video Russell and Alicia. Enjoy looking back. Now I think it must have been some divine intervention that had you build the cabin when you did. It might just save your lives and we are all jealous. 🌷😇
Thanks Leslie Ann. I'm sure things will return to normal some time in the next few months.
Nice video Russ. Looking forward to following your adventures through 2020. Hope you get the bridge situation worked out. Keep us informed.
Thanks Larry. You guys will be the first to know about the bridge.
Just found your channel a couple of days ago, and I have a lot of catch up. This video is absolutely AWESOME in some many ways. Your home and surrounding area is paradise. I can’t get over the outdoor scenes you capture, and the music you select to play is so relaxing. City girl is beautiful and seems very sweet (and her giant meatball with spaghetti looked scrumptious.♥️
This is one of my favourite videos, Jeanette
Ok this is the coolest thing ever. How have we not seen your channel yet?!!!!!
Ah well, I'm not really in the cooking/bbq crowd, exactly. I got into it because I'm good friends with Cooking With Ry (we started our YT channels around the same time by coincidence) and also my other buddy Eastwind Farms (Chris) kept dragging me to other live streams.
Oh God, what beautiful landscapes,the winter images ar awesome.....realy you live in a fantastic place. Your dogs are beautiful 🐶.... I loved this video.😃👌.
Thank you, Elisardo!
my dreams always to live near in the nature same liKe this....ilove the place so much....thank you for sharing us your video....
Thanks for watching Rosemay.
I'm looking forward to watching the video but will wait until after my friend completes doing the tiling in the bathroom. I'm the runner when he forgets a tool in the truck, etc. When all calms down I'll have a cup of coffee and enjoy. By the way, your ability for comedy surpasses MSR, and it's great seeing Alicia learning about life off-grid.
You're the gopher! SJ has a good sense of humour, it just doesn't come out in his videos very well.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin yep, gophering is the hardest job I've never been paid to do. Spent 15 minutes looking for his sponge which probably blew away the night before so pulled out a new one! SJ is probably a great guy to know. I have seen him laugh a few times.
Love watching your video's! Can't wait for the next one ✌
Glad you're enjoying them, Martin!
Thanks for sharing . All nature is beatiful
Thanks for watching, Aneudy!
So much beauty!!! so peaceful..
Shangh-La!!!!!
Amazing - this is a man of all talents. And he has found the answer to life.
Awesome place, love it!!
Hello there from Lancashire north west England. We love where you live. It looks beautiful. We have had a little bit of snow but it's gone now and the weather is so changeable. We have had a very mild winter so far. The house is looking nice with the wood cladding.
Hi I just started watching your amazing videosI! You are quite talented in all that you do to live your life so contently and peacefully. Plus....you r quite the cook! Everything you make looks sooo delicious. I also love your dogs. They look so happy and you can see how much they love you and you love them❤️ It takes courage, stamina and great drive of ambition to live such a great off the grid life! Kudos to you and your beautiful dogs and City Girl💕
Hi Helen, I really like this video too. Welcome to this!
Hi from Tasmania Australia I love watching your videos it looks so awesome there thanks for sharing your life
46:40 Show your love to other dog too (please). He/she deserve your love too.
Good land, Good people and good video. Thanks :)
Thanks for the video. We haven't been able to get to our cabin because of Covid but it feels like we have now after watching.
super nice video and super nice view..l am waiting for more
I want you to smile be happy 😊😊its really a great stuff to see this beauty with peace
I really need to go back from before the time I started watching your videos. I do my best to catch up from the start. I see a few parts in here that I have not seen the originals. In this particular one I was able to get a MUCH better idea of the whole layout and it's absolutely spectacular! I say that all the time but I am directionally challenged! hehe. When it rained really hard it gave the sound of White Noise, one can really take a fantastic snooze with that sound. I loved this video it's an awesome compilation of a breathtakingly beautiful and productive year at Raspberry Rock!
Thanks Tina. How about this video I put on my other channel? ruclips.net/video/8pi69bBjTkc/видео.html. There's also one with peepers.
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin I went to check it out and found I had watched it already but totally enjoyed watching it again! Thanks for the post. I know I watched the Peepers one because I had to look up what is a freakin peeper!? Though I have heard that sound before I wasn't sure if it was like a locust only to find out its the song of the frogs! Loved it! xo
Beautiful place , beautiful life is amazing greetings from Miami Florida
Excellent video, thank you for sharing Russell and Alicia.
Thanks John!
Oh and I love your musical talent on the trombone👍😊
Russell, what a wonderful recap, I so enjoy your videos...
Thanks Dean!
I’m a new subbie watching ur videos has become my most relaxing days ever since the shut down if I ever get to live off grid I’m sure I wouldn’t have any regrets at all u are very much appreciated thanks
Thanks! Glad you enjoy.
Это лучшее ,что я видела .Вы большой молодец и природа потрясающая. Я ПРОСТО ВЛЮБИЛАСЬ В КАНАДУ.
Спасибо за комментарии! Рад, что вам понравилось это видео.
Absolutely beautiful area!
Thanks I'm watching. Nature holds the key to survival. Those of us that have found it know what it is. Time in the woods is healing.
If our fragile supply chain breaks down, we'll all look toward nature for help but have no idea what to do with it. Some of us will, though.
This was extremely satisfying to watch.
Thanks Trinsic!
Beautiful spot! Love it
UNA VITA VISSUTA PIENAMENTE IN TOTALE LIBERTÀ NON A PREZZO. SIETE GRANDI.. UN SALUTO DALLA SARDEGNA. ❤️
Grazie!
Wow! That snow-laden drone footage is amazing. Great choice on the music too, I think. :) It seems a lot longer ago than it actually was.
I enjoyed both this and Shawn's Video too. It is neat to see everything recapped. I have only been following your channel for a little while, but honestly Russell, it has quickly became one of my favorites! Look forward to Booxefest tonight!
11 months!
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin THAT LONG LOL, that is too funny, ! Well the last few weeks have been a Raspberry Rock filled quarantine! Perhaps I was just destined to attend my first Booxefest! :p
How long I been watching?? 😂🤣 Must be a couple of years? Bit longer? Certainly been fun. Thanks
@@tylergoodwin304 This shit sucks! hahaha
@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin Neverrrrrr!!!!!!!!! hahaha
This is beautiful place 👏🏻😊 very nature treess green and animals around birds ..
Im from 🇵🇭
Loved the year in review . Thanks
Thanks Lisa!
Love it ! Thank you ❤️🥰😍
Keep it up.your showing a part of beauty to those who are not there.
It's great to see Canadians living offgrid
There's certainly lots of opportunity to do it here.
You should build some small one room cabins on the far side of your land. You could then rent them out to your fans for whatever you think would be a good price. Then we could have a chance to visit you and see your beautiful property and spend a day with you. Love the idea but it would be totally up to you. As always I love your video.
Love your ending. Ferris Bueller's day off is one of my favorite movies :)
