Ya know Brooke you are 1 in a million. Dave hopefully is so proud of you, you have a good husband n he has a wife that is beyond definition. We all should be so blessed. Love to you both
Brooke, ya always bring a smile when you're on my screen. One of the coolest things tho, is how well you and Dave work together, y'all are a great team. Dave, you're a lucky man, good on ya both! Thank you both for all these great videos! 👍
So happy for you. You transferred me your happiness. I was feeling so down because I had to put my dog of 14 years to sleep and it had been so hard. Thanks for lifting my spirit today. I'm smiling for you.
@@toddb930 thanks. I'm sorry for your loss too. It's so hard, but he was in so much pain and not eating. I loved him so much that I couldn't watch him suffering. He was my baby since I rescued him at 8 weeks.
Had to put my dog down last year . I still feel the pain . Even now there are many times I can't sleep . Still hurts as much as the day he left me . The worst thing about owning a dog is saying good bye .
Love watching you and Dave interact. The love and respect you have for each other is phenomenal! What a team you make. I saw that in the Alone series you two were in and again here. How lucky you are to have each other and share your dreams and adventures! God Speed!
The classic story of human history: Move someplace and proceed to dominate nature into submission, for whatever reason. All those flying embers are what spreads fire. Think Smokey, "Be careful, only you can prevent forest fires."
Hello, Hello, Hello 🙋 I have so much to say I'm not sure where to start. So.....let me say....... I just Love the crap out of you two 😁. I am so thrilled that I found your channel a month or so ago. I've never commented because I tend to not know when to stop typing, lol. But I can be silent no longer. You my dear are AMAZING, Simply AMAZING!!! I LOVED watching you guys on Alone but watching you actually live like you do in your daily lives just because you love it is even more amazing to me. You guys make living off the land, in nature look so good and even achievable for others to do. I know some women that love camping and nature walks etc but I don't know any personally that can stand toe to toe with their male counter part in capabilities and knowledge of all you need to live in nature totally from scratch. I'm sure there are some but not lots. Your husband is blessed to have such a strong motivated wife that will not only cook for him but can cut the tree down, chop it up, set up tents and make it so warm and cozy, set up the stove a make the fires and cook some beautiful food for him. Yes, Your Amazing!! You two make a fantastic couple and are so enjoyable for us to watch living the back to nature lifestyle. I couldn't believe it when I saw you had all these great videos on U-tube for anyone to watch and your TV stars also. Watching your videos is also so uplifting for me especially because I am in a wheelchair and could never do the things you do so I live Vicariously through all your outdoor adventures. I loved watching you put up that tent and surprising your hubby. Starting to clear trees and clean up your new land by yourself, before he even got there. Your just awesome and together you guys could live anywhere starting with nothing and make whatever you need to survive and also be happy and comfortable. I m so glad I found your channel and look forward to seeing you build your cabin on your new land and all your other adventures that you take us on in the woods with your hubby or girlfriends , your dog or just yourself. I live in Iowa and it's looking like a winter wonderland this morning and the snow is falling fast at the moment. Take care ' Girl in the Woods' and keep those home fires burning bright! 😉 Hugs an friendship from Karen in Iowa 💜🙋💜 PS, told ya I don't know when to Shut up 😉😂😉
Hi Karen very nice of you to write those things about us- thank you. I wish you the best and hope to continue to bring you joy in the future with our videos. Be blessed my friend!
Just found you two a few days ago and I'm thoroughly enjoying your videos!!! You both make a nice couple as well. Dave doesn't seem macho or arrogant, which is so refreshing. Keep up the fantabulous work!! 💕
This reminds me so much of when my dad and uncle were building the cabin and bunkhouse when I was a kid; I can see it and smell it like it was yesterday. How fortunate I was :)) love ya
Thinning can turn a forest into a garden. I think it is healthy if done right. The environment is not just about planting trees, it’s about creating healthy system.
Had to comment. So many beautiful memories rushing over me. Hard working help mates and the banter between you two reminded me of my parents when they were still here on this earth. You and I live worlds apart...me at the California coast born of immigrant parents living in separate cultures but with so much in common. I still hear the banter between my parents talking of the chores that need to be done while speaking of their hopes and dreams for me and my siblings. You hear the noises of breakfast being made, the crackling of a fire, and the smell of coffee. I hear pots and pans clanking in my mom's hands in the kitchen, the coffee, and the fog horns in the harbor as I lay half sleeping in my warm bed. My parents introduced us to camping in nature. Swims in the river, camp set up and breakdown, housekeeping chores and campfire food. Oh the freedom we experienced! Thank you for simply being real and grateful to God and his gifts. I am in my 70's now, in the midst of plans to camp travel north along the west coast and God willing, all the way to Canada. I have inherited my parents camp equipment and I have a 2002 Highlander that runs like a champ. The inspiration you've provided will take me along my path. God Bless Both of You!
just having a binge watch of your channel brooke - you are so inspiring and what a woman, your hubby and family must be so proud of you 🙌🙌🙌🙌 you totally rock at life i’m glad you find the joy in nature and the silence and i’m glad i found your channel too xxx
I just found your channel today and it makes me happy!! It's not over it's just the beginning. I've so enjoyed coming along with you guys on this journey and can't wait to watch more of your videos so I can catch up on everything. This is gonna be fun!!
Would you consider using snowmobiles to get in there in the winter? Love your "flat-pack" furniture!! Happy winter... happy planning... and happy reading! 😃👍📚
Hi Brooke, Nah, you're right about having to cut down some trees to see the ridge ... it's just beautiful after all that hard work you guys both did!! I think the forest/ woods is just so beautiful, especially in the winter I love to hear the snow crunch underneath my cowboy boots!! I used to live in wrightwood California where the air is just so crisp and clean a few years ago. And I can tell you Brooke, there's nothing but trees and forestry up there and a small town with smog free clean air ... I just love the clean air up there and the atmosphere. Not to mention all the wildlife up there that we've got livin' in the woods. I sure like to go back up there to live oneday again! I do miss it immensely! I'm so happy for you and Dave! You guys look soooo happy playin' in your yard, designing it and all! What a thrill it must be to envision what's truly going to be there, before it's even there! You guys are a man / woman with a plan!! 👍👍 Two thumbs up for you guys!! Lots of blessings and love towards you guys!!👍😏🇺🇸 Callie from Apple Valley California 🍎😏
Wife and I where doing the same thing on our property this weekend in south dakota. Cutting tons of trees and getting ready to build our cabin/shop. She's also from alaska. You people are a lot alike! Keep up the good work.
Well that was fun,I actually felt like I was there with you two lol great time for sure and more to come,great video Brooke and ty for sharing this 👍😊...
Yes! It may sound antithetical to what we usually hear about climate change, but cutting down some trees 🌳🌳 is actually a good thing for the environment, according to new research. Cutting trees provides for regeneration, better habitat for many species, keeps forest healthy, helps w shaping forests for the future.... 👍
Wow, Such a great video. A very Real life video. You got so much accomplished in 24 yours. The Ridge is beautiful !! Clearing all those trees out made for a visual pleasure for sure. i love how you and Dave work so well together with such ease and caring. Thanks for sharing the intimacy of your evening relaxing and dinner together. It was SAD to see the tent and contents come down.. it really was !!!! Waaaaaaaaaa... Well, you really know how to video and edit. Have a great week. Enjoy the snow and stay warm. :-)
You guys did a great job clearing that area of your land out!! It looks magnificent!! Aww, sad to see the tent go down but I guess there’s always change. Looking forward to what you have planned next, Brooke. ☺️🌟
Have a deck over the ridge. Still got the ridge and space over it. Here in Australia at the moment we are inundated with fire. New South Wales (state) has like 99 fires going. Lots are being fueled by peat in the underground. They could take a very long time to get under control. Some of these fires may have been averted if the department of forestry didnt listen to all the people who said Don't chop trees. Now I am a HUGE fan of trees. I live for trees. but the forest needs to be maintained. Just as you said we need to chop some to save them all. There is a time and place. In Japan they have people who maintain forests. Clearing out the undergrowth or maintaining it. Maintaining is key
Nice work people, so happy to see that fifth wheel has vanished. Dave took that tree down like an expert. I’m so excited to see what you have planned for this beautiful place. ❤️👍✌️
Just a FYI.... I just emailed "Surviveware" from their Internet Home page., asking for a live person to call me so that I can order "LARGE FIRST AID KIT" ..... "CHRISTMAS PRESENTS" for a few of my ..lol... "ACCIDENT PRONE" relatives.....Heheheheeee...... I REALLY ENJOY YOUR UPBEAT VIDEO'S ~ KEEP SHARING..... I'll let you know how my ordering process go'es....... Respectfully, Russell
Hi Girl In The Woods , I'll take that tent off your hands , haha just kidding , you guys are always gonna need a good tent like the one you have !! 👍😊❤
Hey Brooke, You mentioned in one of your episodes that you sell those antler candle holders, where can I we viewers by those antler candle holders from you Brooke ?? Because they are so super cool!! Beautiful really!! 👍😏 By the way, Brooke breakfast looks really good!!👍 That it's such a cool table how you can collapse it and take it down the way you did ... Wow, how awesome!! Very cool!!👍😏 Thanks a million!! Callie from Apple Valley California 🍎😏🇺🇸
Except for a couple of places, (with a purpose,) this is not clearing the land. It IS however, opening it up. You are not clearcutting. That said, nice job. Good work. And you are far enough east (with dampness everywhere) that these fires are not a danger. They are a pleasure. And a couple of those "rounds" trunk wood would make good campfire stools. (Note: set those stools firmly so you don't end up with loose stools!)
It was absolutely phenomenal watch you both work very well together and Brooke is still amazing and he work like a man lots of lots of]hard work for you . But you just keep moving . Your a great team thank you for sharing ….. the love you have for each other to is amazing and the best part of you both great Christians you love the Lord and he loves your back don’t get any better than that. I always keep GOD Close to your hearts ♥️🙏🙏❤️❤️😅
Congrats guys ! You're getting there. If that wood feels damp, it will probably burn. It will, however, probably spark, pop, and bang. You can get the stump out with a stump grinder. Less mess than a loader or backhoe. Good luck.
LOVE the sounds of this day: the saws gas & manual, the fire, the comments between Dave and you Brooke. So great!!! I love the way you two get along and show such love in the respect and honor you have for each other. Beautiful!!
Another great edit. You two work great together! When you said the tent had to come down all I could think of is the amount of work to raise it and now it comes down so soon. My next thought was all of the things you've been doing since getting this property could be considered as a great work out. The endorphins always add to the funny outro I'm sure.
You guys crack me up. I'm so glad you are bringing us back here in the winter. Congrats on getting rid of that camper. I agree with you about cutting down certain trees. I have woods here in Minnesota and it makes the forest healthier in my opinion.....and I usually leave a brush pile in the winter for the wildlife to have a place to go. LOL I enjoyed this. Thanks
Brooke and Dave, it looks like another epic adventure is in store for you both. Congrats on the acquisition, it definitely has tons of potential. Wahoooooo
I'm just a week new and am so addicted to this channel luv it xoxo I love the way you guys work together such an amazing couple. You have such a great family life...
You obviously have never seen the results of an accident with a chain saw. Where is your safety equipment! It only takes a second and you can be disabled for the rest of your life. This advice comes from a 70 year old who has cut off body parts and put an ax through a foot. I thought I was skilled and experienced, but I was too cheap to invest in basic safety equipment.
Thank you Brook. You just showed everyone the meaning of can't see the forest for the trees. As all ways a great time with y'all. Thanks for taking me a long. God Bless you and Dave and the rest of your family.
I haven't been following you for long but it was painful to watch you break down that tent. It served you well. The landscape is looking spectacular after the big clearing. How thrilling for you both to find that gem of a place.
I kept saying..."kiss her. Kiss her" when he saw the camp you made for yall's anniversay!!! We wanted to see kisses and hugs on your anniversay surprise reveal!!!!
Totally enjoyed this video, clearing the land certainly brings out the beauty of the forest. You guys are an amazing couple. Hated to see you guys pack up the tent, time has flown by so fast. Can't wait to see you come back in the winter and see the land!
Love these videos. You and your husband are amazing. You are both lucky to be so compatible. And you are having such a great time. I love watching the progress you are making. Thanks for sharing.
When I think your channel can't get any better you take it up a notch and settle into that wonderful land!! I'm thoroughly enjoying your journey! I eagerly await more!!!
Ya know Brooke you are 1 in a million. Dave hopefully is so proud of you, you have a good husband n he has a wife that is beyond definition. We all should be so blessed. Love to you both
My wife and I so enjoy your videos. We're over 70 and living here in our log cabin in the Huron MTS just wishing we we're your neighbors. Thanks
nice thanks!
Brooke, ya always bring a smile when you're on my screen. One of the coolest things tho, is how well you and Dave work together, y'all are a great team. Dave, you're a lucky man, good on ya both! Thank you both for all these great videos! 👍
thanks!
Aww Brooke your joy is infectious, thank you ☺️
Beautiful couple, I love seeing you two working together. Can't wait to see progress on land
It's nice to watch a couple work together like this.
So happy for you. You transferred me your happiness. I was feeling so down because I had to put my dog of 14 years to sleep and it had been so hard. Thanks for lifting my spirit today. I'm smiling for you.
sooooo sorry!
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. We had to put our dog down a month or so ago so I can still relate to what you're feeling. Take one day at a time.
@@toddb930 thanks. I'm sorry for your loss too. It's so hard, but he was in so much pain and not eating. I loved him so much that I couldn't watch him suffering. He was my baby since I rescued him at 8 weeks.

@@henryrodgers3409 so sorry. It's one of the most painful things you have to go through 💔
You should use those big logs for stools or benches for around the fire!
I love these videos. Brooke, you and Dave make such a great team and you got yourself a beautiful piece of land.
thanks much!
Love watching you and Dave interact. The love and respect you have for each other is phenomenal! What a team you make. I saw that in the Alone series you two were in and again here. How lucky you are to have each other and share your dreams and adventures! God Speed!
blessed....
The classic story of human history: Move someplace and proceed to dominate nature into submission, for whatever reason. All those flying embers are what spreads fire. Think Smokey, "Be careful, only you can prevent forest fires."
I was thinking the same. And not a hose for miles
lol You two are like kids in a candy store.. love the excitement...
Great team of hard workers! Dave and Brooke, you are a super good match.
I’m not one to sit down and watch TV but being I am quarantined with Covid I got hooked on y’all’s videos. Very good

Yay Brooke!!! Thank you for taking us on your amazing journey!
thanks much!
The sound of the pine needles hitting the fire, wow, I can almost smell them. Just lovely.
yesssss
This reminds me so much of when my dad and uncle were building the cabin and bunkhouse when I was a kid; I can see it and smell it like it was yesterday. How fortunate I was :))
love ya
nice
Good to see You with Your Man!
Thinning can turn a forest into a garden. I think it is healthy if done right. The environment is not just about planting trees, it’s about creating healthy system.
"There is unrest in the forest. There is trouble with the trees. For the Maples want more sunlight, but the Oaks ignore their pleas...".
One of my fave Rush!
I know that one lol Rush
LOVE THIS - HAVE FUN AND GOD BLESS YOU ON YOUR NEW ADVENTURE
thank you!

i’m glad you find the joy in nature and the silence and i’m glad i found your channel too xxx
Awesome stuff...now I want to quit my job and move away to the wilderness. Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work!
lol
could have you and Dave used a chainsaw mill on that hemlock, there might have been some good boards in that. :-)
I was thinking you make it look like you're cutting through butter and then you said "it was like cutting buttah" lol
I just found your channel today and it makes me happy!! It's not over it's just the beginning. I've so enjoyed coming along with you guys on this journey and can't wait to watch more of your videos so I can catch up on everything. This is gonna be fun!!
Would you consider using snowmobiles to get in there in the winter?
Love your "flat-pack" furniture!!
Happy winter... happy planning... and happy reading! 😃👍📚
yes! when we can afford to buy a couple old ones

cool thanks cheryl!
"Flames and chainsaws" need you say anymore...lol
lol
Just put another log on the fire!🔥❤️
Yes! It may sound antithetical to what we usually hear about climate change, but cutting down some trees 🌳🌳 is actually a good thing for the environment, according to new research. Cutting trees provides for regeneration, better habitat for many species, keeps forest healthy, helps w shaping forests for the future....
👍
I would love to find a great partner/ soulmate the way they are ❤️
thanks cathy!
Same interests create great partners.
You and me both lol
Wow, Such a great video. A very Real life video. You got so much accomplished in 24 yours. The Ridge is beautiful !! Clearing all those trees out made for a visual pleasure for sure. i love how you and Dave work so well together with such ease and caring. Thanks for sharing the intimacy of your evening relaxing and dinner together. It was SAD to see the tent and contents come down.. it really was !!!! Waaaaaaaaaa...

awww thanks!
You guys did a great job clearing that area of your land out!! It looks magnificent!! Aww, sad to see the tent go down but I guess there’s always change. Looking forward to what you have planned next, Brooke. ☺️🌟
Have a deck over the ridge. Still got the ridge and space over it. Here in Australia at the moment we are inundated with fire. New South Wales (state) has like 99 fires going. Lots are being fueled by peat in the underground. They could take a very long time to get under control. Some of these fires may have been averted if the department of forestry didnt listen to all the people who said Don't chop trees. Now I am a HUGE fan of trees.

yess sorry about your fires!
Nice work people, so happy to see that fifth wheel has vanished. Dave took that tree down like an expert. I’m so excited to see what you have planned for this beautiful place. ❤️👍✌️
yesss thanks
Just a FYI.... I just emailed "Surviveware" from their Internet Home page., asking for a live person to call me so that I can order "LARGE FIRST AID KIT" ..... "CHRISTMAS PRESENTS" for a few of my ..lol... "ACCIDENT PRONE" relatives.....Heheheheeee...... I REALLY ENJOY YOUR UPBEAT VIDEO'S ~ KEEP SHARING..... I'll let you know how my ordering process go'es....... Respectfully, Russell
You should name the ridge"Wipple Ridge"
It was the samsquanch, coming to check why half the forest was missing and why there was a big fire :P
The winter landscape after the snow came through was beautiful!
Hi Girl In The Woods , I'll take that tent off your hands , haha just kidding , you guys are always gonna need a good tent like the one you have !! 👍😊❤
Great that the beast is gone. Another great vlog Brooke. Good fell Dave!
thanks!
During the limb cutting scene, had someone come into the room asking me "what are you watching"... LOL
And also the cleaning you have done will help with spotting any predators that my be lurking around
I enjoy seeing you and Dave in videos together. Y'all make a great team!
I love that song too! All night, all day, Angels watching over me my Lord!
I remember you camping alone with your beautiful dog. Then setting up the tent surprise. Now the beauty of discovering beauty " the ridge"
Awesome News !!!! Property looking better already with it gone ....😊💙 .
Hey Brooke,
You mentioned in one of your episodes that you sell those antler candle holders, where can I we viewers by those antler candle holders from you Brooke ?? Because they are so super cool!! Beautiful really!! 👍😏
By the way, Brooke breakfast looks really good!!👍
That it's such a cool table how you can collapse it and take it down the way you did ... Wow, how awesome!! Very cool!!👍😏
Thanks a million!!
Callie from Apple Valley California 🍎😏🇺🇸
"Oooooh, It's a beautiful day!"
Thank you for the good music!
Glad to see you are getting things moving!
Do you have power-saw safety gear???
Except for a couple of places, (with a purpose,) this is not clearing the land. It IS however, opening it up. You are not clearcutting.
That said, nice job. Good work. And you are far enough east (with dampness everywhere) that these fires are not a danger. They are a pleasure.
And a couple of those "rounds" trunk wood would make good campfire stools. (Note: set those stools firmly so you don't end up with loose stools!)
It feels so good to clean up your own property
It was absolutely phenomenal watch you both work very well together and Brooke is still amazing and he work like a man lots of lots of]hard work for you . But you just keep moving . Your a great team thank you for sharing ….. the love you have for each other to is amazing and the best part of you both great Christians you love the Lord and he loves your back don’t get any better than that. I always keep GOD Close to your hearts ♥️🙏🙏❤️❤️😅
Congrats guys ! You're getting there.
If that wood feels damp, it will probably burn. It will, however, probably spark, pop, and bang.
You can get the stump out with a stump grinder. Less mess than a loader or backhoe.
Good luck.
LOVE the sounds of this day: the saws gas & manual, the fire, the comments between Dave and you Brooke. So great!!! I love the way you two get along and show such love in the respect and honor you have for each other. Beautiful!!
Beautiful piece of land for sure! Will you ever do a episode with your children maybe a mom and daughter or mom and son? 🙌🏼
my kids don't really like to be in videos much
Girl in the Woods understandable
Haha! Yeahhhhhhhhhhh! Gonzo
heck yeahhhhhhhhhhhh! LOL
Fire and chainsaws! My kind of weekend! Be well!
Such a good one! The Mexican music was a perfect touch! This was very inspiring. Thanks!
Feels like we are there, Brooke you get so excited. Can’t wait to see what you all do here....🇦🇺💖
Another great edit. You two work great together! When you said the tent had to come down all I could think of is the amount of work to raise it and now it comes down so soon. My next thought was all of the things you've been doing since getting this property could be considered as a great work out. The endorphins always add to the funny outro I'm sure.
yes it was a very quick go around but we'll be back in the spring to knock it outta the park!
You guys crack me up. I'm so glad you are bringing us back here in the winter. Congrats on getting rid of that camper. I agree with you about cutting down certain trees. I have woods here in Minnesota and it makes the forest healthier in my opinion.....and I usually leave a brush pile in the winter for the wildlife to have a place to go. LOL I enjoyed this. Thanks
thanks much see ya soon
Hi Guys i am sitting here in my kitchen,west coast of Ireland,burning wood and thinking of wood for coming months.Cold here
Brooke and Dave, it looks like another epic adventure is in store for you both. Congrats on the acquisition, it definitely has tons of potential. Wahoooooo
I'm just a week new and am so addicted to this channel luv it xoxo I love the way you guys work together such an amazing couple. You have such a great family life...
isn't it amazing how a hard day's work makes good food taste so good
yesss
So fun to watch you two!! I'm inspired and also exhausted by trying to keep up on my projects. How do you do it all??
Put a happy tire swing on that ridge. All I can say is wow.
that would be cool!
There's bears in them there woods!
That few hours of cleaning up increased the value of that land by 20 to 30%
i agree we talked about that!
You obviously have never seen the results of an accident with a chain saw. Where is your safety equipment! It only takes a second and you can be disabled for the rest of your life. This advice comes from a 70 year old who has cut off body parts and put an ax through a foot. I thought I was skilled and experienced, but I was too cheap to invest in basic safety equipment.
Should have burned the trailer too...lol.
Dave and Brooke exciting for you to get all that cleared👌 take care 🙏🇺🇲
Brooke, it looks like there is enough drop off that you could have a walk in root cellar under your cabin
mmmm yessss
Beautiful tent/candles wow, hello from New Mexico...
Disappointing, packing up. Waiting patiently for winter camping :)
Blessings ~
i knowwww
Thank you Brook. You just showed everyone the meaning of can't see the forest for the trees. As all ways a great time with y'all. Thanks for taking me a long. God Bless you and Dave and the rest of your family.
truth!
I remember my neighbor throwing a old xmas tree in the fire I had in my backyard.. Was like a bomb went off... Scary.
We have Juniper trees here. Almost as bad. They go up quick and throw lots of embers.
I haven't been following you for long but it was painful to watch you break down that tent. It served you well. The landscape is looking spectacular after the big clearing. How thrilling for you both to find that gem of a place.
yes but I'll be back with a dif tent soon!
Who the hell doesnt like that video? Love it
I kept saying..."kiss her. Kiss her" when he saw the camp you made for yall's anniversay!!! We wanted to see kisses and hugs on your anniversay surprise reveal!!!!
It's looking great Brook and Dave!!
Looking good, I think you need to carve that Hemlock stump into a nice easy chair. Thanks for sharing.
Were happy that your happy!!
Totally enjoyed this video, clearing the land certainly brings out the beauty of the forest. You guys are an amazing couple. Hated to see you guys pack up the tent, time has flown by so fast. Can't wait to see you come back in the winter and see the land!
thanks much!
A good read: The Hidden Life of Trees
Now Dave's got me wondering what could be bigger than a squatch?
That was great. Thanks. Love the take-apart table, and the folding table....clever stuff.
I thought the same thing!
Yeah, me too! I've never seen a table like that. Super space saver.
Love these videos. You and your husband are amazing. You are both lucky to be so compatible. And you are having such a great time. I love watching the progress you are making. Thanks for sharing.
thank you Joyce!
That table is the coolest table ever
I think to manage under brush helps grows better trees. Look at the fires out west because they can't manage under brush.
yep, thats forest management!
When I think your channel can't get any better you take it up a notch and settle into that wonderful land!! I'm thoroughly enjoying your journey! I eagerly await more!!!
awesome thanks much!
It's just so great to see you both look so very happy.
thanks!
Waiting to see your cabin progress !!! You deserve a warm corner in that beautiful place! Wish you all good :) !
