Just wanted to answer a few questions we've gotten already on the raised garden beds: The reason we built them tall is because we're tall and didn't want to have to constantly bend over. The bottoms are open to the ground below, not covered with poly...the poly is only on the sides (anywhere that wood will touch soil so they'll last longer). It won't take any more soil than normal because we'll be using the hugelkultur method which is filling up the beds with leaves, sticks, stumps, etc so the soil remains nutrient rich for years to come. We'll be putting some sort of fencing area around them to keep deer out of our veggies. Hope that helps!! 💛
OMGOSH!!! Soon as I saw the height I thought hugelkultur to keep y'all from going bankrupt on soil purchases.😉 I used the technique years ago and planted a dwarf fruit cocktail tree, dwarf 5n1 apple and dwarf 5n1 pear. So in a very small space I'm getting a great variety of tree fruit. With beds that high at least you won't have to worry about Thumper. Great idea for fencing to keep Bambi out too. Another great video fellas. Is it Wednesday or next Sunday yet!😉 I will be checking my notifications to see when and what y'all come up with next. Hugs and high fives to you both. Keep Calm and Carry On.☀️🌈🌻
I’ve never heard of Hugelkultur. But I just googled it and watched a video. I want to try to recreate your beds, if I can find some instructions. Thanks for the information.
dp nice but you’re still here on earth. Learn from these guys...make everyday count. Don’t sell yourself short adventures only end when the clock stops ticking. We are our own biggest road blocks. Take care man!!
Tyler & Todd are literally couple goals. I wish I could find someone with couples goals like them. Stay safe and good luck with the tiny home, I hope all goes well with it. I love you guys.❤
Well you boys certainly haven't lost your touch on handing out the smiles by letting us be witnesses to your relationship. I hope you can have a little cup of the moonshine for this 62 year old widower. I sure wish that John and I had the motivation that you boys have. Unfortunately he had some health issues that held us back a little bit but that's OK because just like you boys we made do with what we had. Sending you boys lots of love big huge kisses until next week keep smilin. 😍💞😋
We never get enough of you guys. Your great role models for those of us are just beginning a serious relationship. To be as happy as you guys seem to be on a day to day basis is a beautiful thing. Not to mention all your handy work. You are a inspiration for us, I'm sure hundreds of others. Keep up the good work.
Omg. This is totally Michael and I. We have been building our off-grid shipping container home since June of last year. We have posted most of the build on my RUclips channel. We even started out living in our camper! So crazy how similar. I’m sure whatever you decide to build will be amazing!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Todds Grandmother :-) You two are such good fun to watch - sometimes I cringe, sometimes I scream with laughter. You seem so happy with everything you do, and nothing ever stops you 'having a go' at something totally new to you. KEEP LIVING THE DREAM :-)
As I’m binge watching your ‘history’, I’m so impressed by your flexibility, resourcefulness and respect for each other. And you’re openness to learning. Rare skills in this age of uncertain ‘certainty’!
I love to se you i am from Danmark 🇩🇰.you are so real happy and sotimes sad when it is needed thankyo very mutsch . Have a good life togathrer . I am 66 and happy 2 granchildren Kirsten
I’m currently renovating a cabin down by my lake. It’s challenging as it’s so off the grid and im 18 with no money but its going great so far!! Y’all inspire me to do better! Thanks
Measure twice, cut once. Safety first. Best of luck with your fantastic project. Hope you’re keeping a record even if you’re not posting pics/vids. The records are more for you to reference in the future if needed. 😁👍
Your thoughts on holding off on the deck until you decide exactly what you're going to build is a good idea. Just make sure it's big enough to hold all of your 38,000 subscribers. We are all looking forward to attending your open house. Every time I watch one of your videos, it reminds me how happy I am that you guys found each other.
I know I'm super late to the party, but those garden beds are absolutely stunning. I cannot believe how talented you are at building things. As always, love the humor and the different personalities you both have that complement each other so perfectly. I will keep putting it into the universe that I find a relationship like this!
Hey Guys, I so look forward to and enjoy your weekly blogs. I was a Subscriber before the pandemic, but have really grown a deeper appreciation for the time you share with us, since returning to Canada You are both working hard and working together to make lemonade out of lemons! Your Off Grid Tiny House Project is going to be great, because your approach to the project is so well thought out I personally love the LOVE you two share between each other. It's funny, warn, silly, caring, romantic, helpful, and it always seems genuine!.....even tangible. You are to be commended on your music selection too. It always complements whatever is going on at the time in your blog. And I really like your theme song. Thanks again guys for your weekly gift of sunshine!
Just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos for the past few days, what beautiful humans you are and it's soo nice to see the love between you both. Tyler, you have stole my heart! I know your never supposed to have favorites and I wouldn't ever want to hurt anyone's feelings so keep it on the quiet. Sending massive love from the UK xx ❤️
Great job with the garden beds. Always wanted one, but I could never do what you have done. They are beautiful. I like the fact that in every thing you do, you go the extra mile and try for perfection. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right, my grannie always said. Take care, don 't get too drunk, if you do, film it, lol..........Love to you both.....hugs for Charlie and Eddie
Nice work you guys. I love the videos....I would love to hang out with you guys and build some stuff. I did construction for YEARS....lol. Honestly, I'd probably just be laughing the whole time because you two are honestly hilarious. The subtle jokes and chemistry you two share, not to mention the quality of content, puts a smile on my face every Sunday when I watch your videos. As a Northern guy myself, I completely relate to wanting to live off the grid and live affordable while putting money into meaningful and worthwhile living arrangements and traveling/exploring. Thanks for the positivity and stay safe out there. Don't let the birds (mosquitos) carry you away. Later creators.
Hey guys! Always fun to spend time with you both. Look forward to Sundays. Garden beds look great. You will soon be enjoying the fruits of your labour. Temps look good too. Here in Ontario this week, we were close to the hundred degree F mark. Today it is a pleasant 70 degrees. Have a great week, and will see you next Sunday.
Hope you get a chuckle out of this, but everytime I see you boys I try to figure which one is cuter.. and I simply never come to an answer, because you are both so adorable.. inside and out!
Mike -- you are not alone in this regard. I've come to the conclusion that it's a draw -- boys are equally adorable!! A trophy blond boy meets a trophy brunet boy and they live happily ever after. Just love these guys!! 💕
MY husband and I have a seasonal trailer in an RV park. Many people have a basic trailer garage to preserve the trailer. Six 4x4 mounted in those concrete feet and than the roof. Not $25,000 the most they’ve paid was about $3500 and you could do most of it. If you are still going to RV you could place the RV in one spot and leave another area for a more permanent tiny home. This way you can have your tiny home and take off in your trailer whenever you want and your trailer will always be protected.
You guys are making Sunday's my favorite day. I hope you don't get tired of seeing me on here so often but your my favorite couple and your property reminds me of Maine . Now...about your singing...just kidding.
Catching up on how you’ve gotten to this point. Again you’re both so charming and creative and sharing a terrific love story🥰. From a straight admirer in Ottawa can’t wait for the cabin to get off the ground. Your garden and all the additions you’ve put in is nothing short of magical 🧙♀️
Hey men...Happy Sunday. This was another great video in your series and always happy to tag along and see what is happening with you. How nice you have your lives in front of you and can experience these times. I wish only happiness for you both!
I made popcorn chickN bowls for dinner tonight! It turned out great! My husband loved it too! I took a picture for you guys, but not sure where to post it.
Hey guys I thought I would share this tip, then again you might have heard about it by now. For cutting metal sheets as you were doing, install your blade the wrong way on your skill saw. That is right, on the opposite direction where you think it will not cut! It will cut through metal sheet like butter. Use an old blade because it will afterwards no longer cut properly if you were to rotate it to the proper direction. We learned that trick from an older wood worker when we build our Lanai at Plein Bois campground two years ago. Good luck guys and my partner and I love a you.
It is always a joy each Sunday to watch what new adventure you guys are on ! I , like many others it seems , live vicariously through you. Please know how much joy you bring to people !! Keep it up guys :)
Nature is perfectly imperfect. Repeat that out loud everytime you want something perfect and it doesn't quite work out. You won't throw out a veggie that is quirky, often times they taste better. Love you guys 🤗😊😘
Boys!!! A camping trick I learned was using dryer sheets to keep the bugs away! I will put one on my hat when around a camp fire or tuba sheet up and down my arms and I never ever get bit! Go Bounce! Lol love your garden beds, you two make me feel lazy! Todd I love your humor and Tyler your smile warms my heart (such a mom thing to say!) I love our Sunday’s haha!
just revisited this, to get some ideas for the raised beds I will be constructing this winter for my spring garden. You guys did an awesome job!! so inspirational!
Oh my gosh, yes, those metal sheets, when cut, are very sharp. You really should wear heavy duty gloves. I learned the hard way 😖. That’s not an easy or fun job, cutting with those clippers. I was building a catio for our daughter’s cats, and needed to cut roof panels. Used those same clippers. What a pain. Those raised beds look awesome! This is the first video I watched, and I already love you guys, so I subscribed 🥰. I just watched the video when Charlie had emergency surgery, and I’m so glad he’s ok. It made me want to tell you guys, and everyone who has doggies, to be super careful if you have anything with Xylitol in it(a sugar substitute). It’s in so many foods and candy/gum these days, and it’s very deadly for dogs. We learned the hard way (yep, we seem to learn a lot of lessons the hard way 😖) and almost lost our sweet Cooper. We ended up having him in two different emergency hospitals, but after about 10 days, and $10,000 later, we got to bring him home. We were so lucky he survived. We now share this with everyone who has doggies, be a use we don’t want anyone to have to go through what we went through with our Cooperboy.
I found your channel several weeks ago and decided to go back and start from the beginning. I’m working my way through your videos and enjoying it immensely. Lots of ❤️ from Louisville, KY, USA (one of your “American viewers” 😉).
Hate chemicals, except for Deep Woods Off with Deet. Haven't found anything else that works. Not just for me but also the horses and dogs when riding mountain/forest trails. Love your channel.
You are both very wise in that you re-assess your plans constantly. I agree, it would be a shame to invest so much in a temporary structure to house the existing tiny home. It will likely last several years as-is and that will give you more time to come up with what you want for your more permanent structure. I would however invest in ensuring that the home is 'tied down' very securely to make sure it is sturdy during those Nova Scotia storms. Thanks for keeping the content new and interesting every week with a sprinkle of fun.
Great job on the garden planter boxes..they need the water to be able to drain out of the plastic seal.. so that your plants don't rot and turn yellow from too much water.. Love the great job you did so far to your land.. and your home looks awesome..new subscriber from Ottawa Ontario.
The planter boxes look great. There is nothing you two cannot accomplish together. I agree fully with your decision to hold off investing a lot of money in what essentially would be a carport for your RV. Not that there is anything wrong with carports, but your are right in asking yourselves if you really need one. You are being realistic and being realistic tends to nip hasty decisions in the bud. Continue to listen to your instincts, which btw are very good, indeed.
You guys are amazing! love the planters. I was afraid when I heard "home brew". Love how you talk things out and finally come to a consensus. Good on You!!
love the raised beds. we just hired a carpenter to build ours....so proud of you guys and all you can do - you guys are great - when i was your age I would not have been able to have your focus.... amazing. great video.
Truly believe that you can do anything that you put your mind to. A few years ago I would have said we'd be the LAST people on earth to be building a garden for an off-grid property but here we are, learning new skills and happy!
Hi guys the raised beds are looking great. So glad you continue to post the weekly updates, I feel like part of the family. Big hugs to Charley and Eddy too. Love you both!
Your raised garden beds look amazing...you should be so proud. I just planted my 1st little garden myself, lol. Loved your show this week like always. Doggies are absolutely adorable! Please be safe this week and take care of one another😁👍🙏😷🇺🇸🏳️🌈
Fellas. You both nailed this project, Literally and metaphorically. I did the same thing, and this works well. Standing to garden is the best. Iv added a removable hoop system into the equation before filling the boxes with soil. Hoops allow coverage and shelter and keeps bugs out. Alkithain piping creating a hoop, and a larger pipe in each corner of the box to put a pipe within a pipe to create the fixings for each hoop... This system allows for the boxes to be covered with net or polythene to create a greenhouse effect or a covered space. I added hinges to one side of the boxes to allow easy removal of soil as the side then opens ....for adding amendments to soil in the future. Well done fellas Kindness your way Neil [ Lochness Scottish Highlands }
I absolutely appreciate your videos and look forward every weekend to relax and see what you all have accomplished. My partner and I are getting ready to move from Missouri to Dunkirk, New York. We are 50 yrs old and leaving all we know for this adventure. Our children are very supportive which helps. Your videos inspire me to make the most of our changes that we are about to experience.
Partner loves you guys. I’m just getting on board. ( I’m convinced an RV in in our future ... such an influencer ). Listening tonight about your changing Plans, anticipating future dreams , and coming from a architectural design background I’d like to suggest building your tiny House cover and deck as planned to protect the RV but doing so with potential future home design plans in mind. Think it through. Build now. No need to rebuild in the future. Have fun!!!!!
As always, it's a pleasure to see you two and what you've been up to o the land. You mentioned an outside deck area which would be great but from what I've seen, the bugs would eat you up unless you have a few of the electric bug zapper lights. Home Depot has them and you'll save yourselves a lot of grief if you have them. Hugs my lovely friends.
you guys are really hardworking and share real content which i love the most about you .i can feel the connection you share guys 😍😍😍 you are the best !!!
Plan the structure cover for the RV that would double as RV shelter and would also be the structure as part of your tiny home when you build. Love your Channel Lee & Bryan
Hi Guys! Another great video! Those planter boxes look nice enough to live in! You're right to be concerned about the longevity of the RV. I live in a 1995 5th wheel and can attest that they were/are not built to last as long as stick-built structures for full time living. I'll be very interested to see what you decide to do for your tiny house, as I have no doubt that it will be incredible!
You two guys are the so amazing together I so love watching your videos when I get a chance so hard finding time since I work hard at a grocery store in the front end and my boyfriend works in the back as a meat-cutter. He is working on cooking too. So nice to see how your relationship is doing and build a home and life together wonderful Canadians.
Great video guys. Can I make a recommendation about your next RV? Buy something old. It will last much longer. We had a similar aged RV to you and it was built so poorly. When we shopped for a new one, we found that not much had changed. I’ve now got one from 1959 and I’m sure it’ll outlive me! I’ve had to do work to it, but everything is simple and much more robust. Take a look at some of the Airstream and vintage trailer renovation videos out there for some inspiration and think outside the box! 😘
I like the flower beds, I'm 5'9" and adjusted my kitchen cabinets to be higher so the high flower beds, I get it. As always, thanks for the window into your days. Stay safe, enjoy the Bathroom Red.
You two are an industrious lot, the good news is I’ve been there and done the same before way back when you two were just concepts in the minds of your folks.
Yeah you guys were pretty sloshed last weekend. However, after working very hard to build your next journey, you're allowed some of life's guilty pleasures! Enjoy your time together. Take care and Peace!
Those raised garden beds are amazing. You could so have a business selling them. And the idea of not having to bend over to the garden beds, happy times for the back. Is Canada starting to open up again. Our Premier has now opened up our state of Queensland (Australia) for travel now but we are still closed to the other states for at least the next month if not more. The other states are not too happy about that but we are having days of no new cases and only a handful of active cases so you have to be happy with that.
Hey guys! We’re enjoying your journey. Thanks for taking us along on the ride! Do yourselves a favor and buy yourselves....no, INVEST IN these Bug Jackets. I ordered mine on Amazon. You’ll never have to flee the forest due to bugs again! These are soooo worth the minimum cost. The company that sells them is called Tough Outfitters. They cost $24.95. That’s for the hooded top. You can buy a whole suit if you feel the need. Sorry, I don’t see a product number, but you can find it easy enough by searching Amazon. You’ll be able to re-claim entire days outside that once would have been ruined by gnats, mosquitoes and pesky biting flies. 😉 I’m not a sales person and I don’t work for the company. I just thought you’d get some good use from them.
Just wanted to answer a few questions we've gotten already on the raised garden beds: The reason we built them tall is because we're tall and didn't want to have to constantly bend over. The bottoms are open to the ground below, not covered with poly...the poly is only on the sides (anywhere that wood will touch soil so they'll last longer).

We'll be putting some sort of fencing area around them to keep deer out of our veggies. Hope that helps!! 💛
Thanks for the clarification. I wondered about drainage when I saw the poly because drainage is essential. Good job!

What about a pole barn over the camper? Its a simple roof to protect the roof. 💜💜🤓
Fab! I love this way of building them. So much more practical
You guys crack me up! I'm a single, straight woman living off grid in a tiny house I built myself and I absolutely love you guys! Keep being you!
I am a married straight woman if that is important, and I agree with you! They are hilarious and a joy to watch.
Seeing that my life is nearing its end making such adventurous changes seems unlikely. So it is a pleasure to follow you both in yours.
dp nice but you’re still here on earth. Learn from these guys...make everyday count. Don’t sell yourself short adventures only end when the clock stops ticking. We are our own biggest road blocks. Take care man!!
Never to late! Dreaming is living!
I to know what you are saying, as I am in the same category and also enjoy these guys vicariously
You never know. As long as you feel well, go for it. You may see 100.
completely agree with everyone's responses to your comment...every single day you're still breathing is a gift, cherish it!
Tyler & Todd are literally couple goals. I wish I could find someone with couples goals like them. Stay safe and good luck with the tiny home, I hope all goes well with it. I love you guys.❤
Well you boys certainly haven't lost your touch on handing out the smiles by letting us be witnesses to your relationship.

Hey sexy Peter K what's up with you I am Mark I am gay and single I am 34 years old I live in Louisiana
Finely crafted is how I would describe those raised beds. If you guys had a table saw, I believe you could build ANYTHING

I personally would love to see a how to video to make your wonderful raised garden beds. You did a fantastic job. Measurements would be a bonus.
I vote for the DIY tutorial as well. My chronic lower back pain says yes to three foot tall beds.

It’s in so many foods and candy/gum these days, and it’s very deadly for dogs. We learned the hard way (yep, we seem to learn a lot of lessons the hard way 😖) and almost lost our sweet Cooper. We ended up having him in two different emergency hospitals, but after about 10 days, and $10,000 later, we got to bring him home. We were so lucky he survived. We now share this with everyone who has doggies, be a use we don’t want anyone to have to go through what we went through with our Cooperboy.
Love you guys I love watching you all make your new home
I found your channel several weeks ago and decided to go back and start from the beginning. I’m working my way through your videos and enjoying it immensely. Lots of ❤️ from Louisville, KY, USA (one of your “American viewers” 😉).
Hate chemicals, except for Deep Woods Off with Deet. Haven't found anything else that works. Not just for me but also the horses and dogs when riding mountain/forest trails. Love your channel.
You are both very wise in that you re-assess your plans constantly. I agree, it would be a shame to invest so much in a temporary structure to house the existing tiny home. It will likely last several years as-is and that will give you more time to come up with what you want for your more permanent structure. I would however invest in ensuring that the home is 'tied down' very securely to make sure it is sturdy during those Nova Scotia storms. Thanks for keeping the content new and interesting every week with a sprinkle of fun.
Missed you guys this past Sunday
Having attractive planters is good psychologically to keep y’all on mission. Seriously. Well done.
Yes please on the DIY raised garden beds tutorial video!
Great job on the garden planter boxes..they need the water to be able to drain out of the plastic seal.. so that your plants don't rot and turn yellow from too much water.. Love the great job you did so far to your land.. and your home looks awesome..new subscriber from Ottawa Ontario.
Wow! Your Mother's should be so very proud of you. What a genuinely lovely young couple!
The planter boxes look great. There is nothing you two cannot accomplish together. I agree fully with your decision to hold off investing a lot of money in what essentially would be a carport for your RV. Not that there is anything wrong with carports, but your are right in asking yourselves if you really need one. You are being realistic and being realistic tends to nip hasty decisions in the bud. Continue to listen to your instincts, which btw are very good, indeed.
Absolutely! Like we said, everyone's situation is different...if we bought a brand new RV for 100k we'd definitely have a carport
You guys are amazing! love the planters. I was afraid when I heard "home brew". Love how you talk things out and finally come to a consensus. Good on You!!
You both are so adorable!
love the raised beds. we just hired a carpenter to build ours....so proud of you guys and all you can do - you guys are great - when i was your age I would not have been able to have your focus.... amazing. great video.
Truly believe that you can do anything that you put your mind to. A few years ago I would have said we'd be the LAST people on earth to be building a garden for an off-grid property but here we are, learning new skills and happy!
You two are amazing and so talented! I agree that a structure over the RV would be crazy!
You guys are so good for each other. I enjoy watching you.
I look forward to seeing you guys every week. I need a longer video. I need more time with you!!
Hi guys the raised beds are looking great. So glad you continue to post the weekly updates, I feel like part of the family. Big hugs to Charley and Eddy too. Love you both!
Your raised garden beds look amazing...you should be so proud. I just planted my 1st little garden myself, lol. Loved your show this week like always. Doggies are absolutely adorable! Please be safe this week and take care of one another😁👍🙏😷🇺🇸🏳️🌈
Fellas.
You both nailed this project, Literally and metaphorically. I did the same thing, and this works well. Standing to garden is the best. Iv added a removable hoop system into the equation before filling the boxes with soil. Hoops allow coverage and shelter and keeps bugs out. Alkithain piping creating a hoop, and a larger pipe in each corner of the box to put a pipe within a pipe to create the fixings for each hoop... This system allows for the boxes to be covered with net or polythene to create a greenhouse effect or a covered space. I added hinges to one side of the boxes to allow easy removal of soil as the side then opens ....for adding amendments to soil in the future.
Well done fellas
Kindness your way

I absolutely appreciate your videos and look forward every weekend to relax and see what you all have accomplished. My partner and I are getting ready to move from Missouri to Dunkirk, New York. We are 50 yrs old and leaving all we know for this adventure.
Our children are very supportive which helps. Your videos inspire me to make the most of our changes that we are about to experience.
You guys are a ray of sunshine!! I love the raised beds and your process. I am lovin' everybit of this..
Happy birthday to your grandma! I’m sure she’s an absolute queen!
Partner loves you guys. I’m just getting on board. ( I’m convinced an RV in in our future ... such an influencer ). Listening tonight about your changing Plans, anticipating future dreams , and coming from a architectural design background I’d like to suggest building your tiny House cover and deck as planned to protect the RV but doing so with potential future home design plans in mind. Think it through. Build now. No need to rebuild in the future. Have fun!!!!!
As always, it's a pleasure to see you two and what you've been up to o the land. You mentioned an outside deck area which would be great but from what I've seen, the bugs would eat you up unless you have a few of the electric bug zapper lights. Home Depot has them and you'll save yourselves a lot of grief if you have them. Hugs my lovely friends.
We'll eventually do a screened in deck if we were to build one :)
you guys are really hardworking and share real content which i love the most about you .i can feel the connection you share guys 😍😍😍 you are the best !!!
Plan the structure cover for the RV that would double as RV shelter and would also be the structure as part of your tiny home when you build.
Love your Channel

Hi Guys! Another great video! Those planter boxes look nice enough to live in! You're right to be concerned about the longevity of the RV. I live in a 1995 5th wheel and can attest that they were/are not built to last as long as stick-built structures for full time living. I'll be very interested to see what you decide to do for your tiny house, as I have no doubt that it will be incredible!
How can I not wait for this week...have fun guys!!
You guys are living a dream! Good for you! Love every moment of your life!
Hello from latinamerica. I like your program. Congratulation for all your efforts with your land.
You two guys are the so amazing together I so love watching your videos when I get a chance so hard finding time since I work hard at a grocery store in the front end and my boyfriend works in the back as a meat-cutter. He is working on cooking too. So nice to see how your relationship is doing and build a home and life together wonderful Canadians.
Thanks guys. ❤️
Those planters are amaze balls. Great job. I warned you about the home made wine. 😉 🇨🇦
Great video guys. Can I make a recommendation about your next RV? Buy something old. It will last much longer. We had a similar aged RV to you and it was built so poorly. When we shopped for a new one, we found that not much had changed. I’ve now got one from 1959 and I’m sure it’ll outlive me! I’ve had to do work to it, but everything is simple and much more robust. Take a look at some of the Airstream and vintage trailer renovation videos out there for some inspiration and think outside the box! 😘
Wonderful job on the raised boxes! I'm a contractor, and you guys were methodically got the essential assembly line concept down!
I’m having a trashy meal..805 beer and dark chocolate peanut butter cups...🙂those planters are gorgeous!
Garden beds look awesome!! 🎉
I like the flower beds, I'm 5'9" and adjusted my kitchen cabinets to be higher so the high flower beds, I get it. As always, thanks for the window into your days. Stay safe, enjoy the Bathroom Red.
You two are an industrious lot, the good news is I’ve been there and done the same before way back when you two were just concepts in the minds of your folks.
Guys, thanks so much for sharing. My husband and I always look forward to watchimg your new videos each Sunday. You make our day complete!
Yeah you guys were pretty sloshed last weekend. However, after working very hard to build your next journey, you're allowed some of life's guilty pleasures! Enjoy your time together. Take care and Peace!
Those raised garden beds are amazing. You could so have a business selling them. And the idea of not having to bend over to the garden beds, happy times for the back. Is Canada starting to open up again. Our Premier has now opened up our state of Queensland (Australia) for travel now but we are still closed to the other states for at least the next month if not more. The other states are not too happy about that but we are having days of no new cases and only a handful of active cases so you have to be happy with that.
You boys are very clever and handy!
Love you guys. Good to see you both again. It's just hair my loves so let's get this job done. Plant that seed.eat healthy my brothers
Hey guys! We’re enjoying your journey. Thanks for taking us along on the ride!
Do yourselves a favor and buy yourselves....no, INVEST IN these Bug Jackets. I ordered mine on Amazon. You’ll never have to flee the forest due to bugs again! These are soooo worth the minimum cost.
The company that sells them is called Tough Outfitters. They cost $24.95. That’s for the hooded top. You can buy a whole suit if you feel the need.
Sorry, I don’t see a product number, but you can find it easy enough by searching Amazon.
You’ll be able to re-claim entire days outside that once would have been ruined by gnats, mosquitoes and pesky biting flies. 😉 I’m not a sales person and I don’t work for the company. I just thought you’d get some good use from them.
I have never seen so great looking raised beds . Good luck with your gardening !
Love you boy’s, thanks for your honesty, love 💕 watching your little life and tiny home all come together. Stay safe
Love love your videos. You both are hysterical. Much love Lilly from South Africa❤️🇿🇦
You show us such teamwork on your projects It seems to desolve any stress PEACE
