Tip of the day: tired of looking for boots,shoes and jackets? Have the boys build two shoe rack and two coat hangers put one at the front door and one in the mud room. Be they example by putting your things away first. No more looking or searching for them. So goes the leader so goes the troops.
Yep. All that wood they have the boys could build the hangers, and even make them fancy hangers by making a family logo and doing the logo on the wooden hangers by wood burning, which is a beautiful art form. They can even make little hangers for the tiny coats.☺️ My grandparents had a resort in upper Michigan, and they made some beautiful hangers. Then they made closets with just simple smooth boards, and had a shelf on top for hats whatever, and shelves down each side to put gloves, scarfs, shawls, etc. Each person had their own cubby for their things. A sturdy long rod was hewn out of a small tree, and wooden hooks were added to place the rod into, four of them to be exact. The four hooks gave the rod good support, as coats are heavy. A bench sat across from where the coats were hanging where everyone could take off their shoes, boots, what have you. Then the footwear was all placed on a shoe rack. If boots were wet or muddy they were immediately cleaned off at a utility sink, then placed on a rack near a heater vent. Rubber boots had their own separate rack near the door with an umbrella stand next to it, and that sat under several windows that gave great light into that mud room. It took little time to make all of it, but it was functional, and very organized, which saved loads of time. Chaos is lost time, and lost time is lost productive work, and so in the end less time for fun things. They spend far too much time just running in circles looking for things. Maybe Justin will hear you, because it sure would save him and the kids a lot of wasted time. These are wonderful people, and they do so much for their community. It’d be so helpful to themselves to take just a few moments to do these simple things to get their place organized. And who honestly likes shoving their feet into cold shoes on a cold outside porch all the time? Not me! Those young men could knock this out in no time flat, and surprise their parents with a super nice mud room. I was watching Montana Haven and those boys build a lot of things working with their parents. They had a wall up in no time flat that gave the family an entry room area. The twins also have their pilots licenses now at age 18, and have their drivers licenses. Justin’s young men have great opportunities ahead, but they have to see them and understand them first. This is a great family Justin and Rebecca are raising, and once organized there would be no stopping them on what they can accomplish.
They tried a shoe rack when they lived in the cabin that caught fire. It was on the front porch right by the door. Shoes everywhere EXCEPT in the shoe rack.
@@queenbee3647 that shoe rack was on the porch of the main house before they moved to the cabin. It'd been there for years. Same thing: shoes everywhere.
@@dertythegrower 😂 WRONG! Too many times their rooms were trashed. I was cleaning in the middle child’s room, and under the bed I found the missing bowl with a moldy half of eaten on grapefruit. She was too tired to take the bowl to the kitchen, went to sleep, then forgot about it. That’s when she lost eating privileges in her room. It was also about the time I decided enough on the chaos and got the kids organized. Life flowed a lot smoother for everyone, no more lost privileges, and they ended up with a lot more time to do things they enjoyed. It’s all how you choose to live. Some chose the chaos, because it is hard work to change bad habits. It’s easier to just do nothing about it, but the problems it causes in the long run are much more difficult, but it’s all about the resistance and the rising above it all. Either you do it or you don’t.
Ditch the cube thing for freeze drying broth - its easier to just pour it into the trays and use a spatula to funnel it into jars after freeze dried. I do raw eggs this way as well when in abundance to rehydrate and cook in the winter.
Recommendation… you need to be weighing your freeze dried foods to make sure they are dry. Setting the freeze dryer for extra dry time gives you the ability to stop and weigh a couple times after the initial machine cycle. I keep a book and scale on hand. Note the item, date, frozen/not frozen, initial weight etc..
Next year I am going to try and come to this parade . My Son and Daughter in Law live in Ashville 1:40 . So he will have to be on the lookout for the flyers:) . I hope y’all have a Happy New Year:) Thank you for showing us old farmers a thing or two :)
Happy Holidays to you and your family. Add a note to your daily/weekly schedule to check your fuels level supply. That way, you can refill your supply before you run out. Red=gas. Yellow=diesel. Blue=kerosene. Small red cans=gas/oil mix for 2 cycle. Never a mistake that way. Keep a sufficient supply on hand for emergencies. You might want to look into local farming regulations. Sometimes, if you are registered as a farm, you can put a tank in that will allow you to keep fuels on the property for your machinery. You may not need to pay tax on the fuel. You can not use it for regular vehicles. I always keep a can of regular gas with stabilizer and two cans of diesel. The diesel is for my furnace. I run heating oil, but occasionally my delivery gets delayed. I just dump 5 gallons in the tank before it gets emply. It slightly reduces the efficiency but will keep me warm if my delivery is delayed. It is not for everyday use. Only emergencies. Sometimes, Mother Nature interferes with the delivery. In certain areas of the US, heating oil is mixed with diesel. Mine is normally pure #2. Just like the wood for your boiler, be intentional about other fuel sources. Those include gasoline, possibly solar, propane and butane, as your needs require.
They had a tank for diesel, they kept red diesel in it for their farm equipment. It's possible their supplier hasn't been able to come out to refill it since the hurricane.
I had family members who used gas cans for running equipment and parked full and empty on the front and back so they could be turned round on the shelf once used and you could see at a glance exactly what you had left. It was a great systems.
With regards to freeze drying, you will lose a lot of food if you do it improperly. Most people think it’s done when it actually requires a lot more time. Never try to freeze dry fat it will not work! And I learned by experience apple juice does not freeze dry, high sugar content products do not like to freeze dry, certain candies will work others won’t cream does not work. Milk is excellent, buttermilk is great ! But Products with real chocolate won’t work! Store-bought chocolate milk does so I’m assuming it must not be real chocolate😂 but what you should do is take your product out when it says it’s done and weigh it Then put it back in for two hours. remove and re-weigh ,if it has dropped in weight put it back in for four hours pull it back out weigh it. Be sure to use oxygen absorbers and be sure to use a good sealer to suck out the remaining o2 if you use jars!
This brand of freeze dryer was made famous about 5 years ago, in the commercial and homegrower market for extractions of commercially grown and professional ('medical herb') and the companies i have worked for growing, use these 10 at a time all day long 365 days a year... the top experts you will talk to make 'edibles' that have the herb extracts in it.. nobody else made this brand bigger than companies growing 'that one herb' 😅
Harvestright rosin edible extracts... years of videos and pro 'extractors' use dozens of these all day long 7 days a week operating (last playlist on solventless will make you guys go 😮)
I've had mine for years and I can tell you that if you get the mylar bags with the bottom that opens up wider to stand alone, you'll love them! It makes bagging so much easier.
We freeze dry just about everything ...have yet to have a disaster. I started 3 years ago and have been saving a ton of money....buying on sale and freeze drying !!
To freeze dry broth, pour the broth directly on the flat trays and keep cycling until it freeze dries into a powder. Then you can reconstitute it like bullion.
The big difference with freeze-drying is that the vitamins and minerals never go away during storage and while canning & jarring will works just as good it will only keep for 5-10 years before there's nothing but calories left. While it is nothing for freeze-drying to store for 20 years (in proper conditions) you should always give any consumable you open from long-term storage a good sniff to make sure it's still good.
Palominas unorganized parade!!! I think we habe a fb page about it now. We all just show up with decorated horses, trucks, and floats. It's the best parade I have ever been in and watched.
Get your fuels right, Justin you can get away with this situation with a gas motor, but you do that with a diesel, Ie: pour gas in it and start it, you will have a real big repair bill
Yeah except it is the other way around.. diesel engines can handle up to 20% gas (especially older models) gas engines 0.. that’s why in Europe diesel handles don’t fit in gasoline cars ..
@nicknitro9170 Not everyone is riding around with a 7.3 Ford diesel or an older GM diesel. You are correct. Older diesel engines can handle nearly anything that you feed it. Try to feed newer diesel engines gas, even a gas diesel mix. You will be buying a new engine.
Talking about community, a little town I used to live in started a small get together for Christmas dinner…this year they had to rent a tent, 300 people showed up!
I have sampled freeze dried Banana, Apple, Pineapple, and Mango and they are all great. The pineapple and especially mango are just unreal. I wish I had some right now but they're expensive to buy!
Ive wqtched KEVIN from Hidden Heights Farm do eggs in a freeze dryer. Scramble them up and pour them in the try and load they up. Just add water to reconstitute.
Camera stating to dislike the cold. This was a little blurry.. ❤❤ Christmas parade was enjoyable… I remember living in Mt Airy In December, it didn’t matter any day was cooold. But living in Central Washington I’ve got 2” snow… Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎊🎈🍾❤️
Hilarious, generous and a great memory for not only the Rhodes children but the neighbors' as well. _Nobody_ was thinking about a Christmas parade three months ago. A story and a tradition straight out of Appalachia👏😊
I cannot believe how much Austin's son looks like him. What's the baby's name? Your mechanic saved the day. You should write "Diesel" on the can so there's not another slip up. It was so nice of you and the family to plan another Christmas parade. I think it's a great event for the community.
This made me cry!! What a way to spread a little love and Christmas cheer for all of your precious neighbors who were affected by Helene! Bless you guys, Justin & Rebekah! I love this!!
My daughter-in-law set up a hayride for our family, her parents and us our our family and our family together. We on the hayride and it was quite lovely. We were in the Richard part of Houston where they have the lights and I think it was like two hours long. It was nice, and it was a family business because there was hayride people. There was a whole bunch of carriages as well decorated with Christmas lights, but it was nice.
Omg! I’m getting weepy in my mid-life phase 😂… found myself teary eyed at the community coming out to celebrate Christmas with the parade after such a hard year. So so beautiful and so much hope in Jesus! Merry Christmas Rhodes family. 🥹
They do - but someone put the wrong product into the wrong container. Then thought simply putting an X on the containers would let others know the issue - instead of correcting the issue properly
Hopefully this was a teachable moment that will help all involved to recognize the importance of this communication tool (appropriate fuel in appropriate colored container - yep, even color can be a tool! :) ) to avoid future problems. Blessings!
I've done my fair share of diesel syphoning, and everything smelled and tasted like diesel for at least a week after the time I had a shot of it through my sinuses.
Shabbat Shalom friend! FD TIP! I thought I’d share how I do bone broth in the FD. I put the trays in the rack all but maybe 6”. Using a fat separator, I release the amount in the bare tray until it’s up to the wee edge, then gently slide it in. Discard or save the fat. Pour another bit of broth in the next tray and repeat. When it’s finished I scoop off the tray (doesn’t stick). It crumbles as you saw. I crumble it into a gallon jar. Then when I use it I scoop out usually a 1/4 cup for a mug. It’s pretty simple. I keep it in the pantry for regular use without an O2 absorber but for long term storage I use a couple O2 absorbers and it’s good for a long time. The consistency of crumbled powder you had is how most things turn out. Beans just turn to powder if you crush them.
just pour the broth or juices out on the stray when freeze drying. you dont nee the tray things, dont over think it the strays will be fine. food lifts right off them. save yourself some time and you will make larger quantities at a time
You all don’t take care of your expensive equipment. We are supposed to be good stewards over what God has given us. You have been very blessed to be able to have these things. Please show your children how to take care of things properly. Happy New Year 🎉
Stop assuming based on a few videos. IF you'd been watching for years, or paying attention during those years, you'd know that they DO take care of their equipment!!! The problem in recent weeks is that their area just had a MAJOR hurricane wash through their community, taking out quite a lot of it. You'd also understand that if you'd been paying attention!!! Their usual maintenance people might not be able to come out to collect the machines like they usually do!!!
Red jug is always for gas you can even mark it with a sharpie pen for gas only .It's just common sense. I did not get the whole Christmas parade thing I know you have it every year but that was so confusing.
Justin, I’m watching Max Velocity ( weather ) he mentioned you guys may get heavy wind and some rain your way. Just a warning. I hope it doesn’t. Stay safe. I hope you see this!
Whinny is one of the loyalist dog I have seen. That is gone unloved and unfeature. She traveled a long way with you guys on foot. She needs one of those large store bought bones.
Yep. No fun putting diesel in instead of gas. REFUEL the FUEL BANKS ( multiple cans), JUSTIN. Suggestion: 1 location clearly marked diesel. I location clearly marked gas. Place the cans in the correct location. Paint each section the color of the cans to avoid confusion. Or not. Up to you.
Honestly, I’m not surprised the wrong fuel ended up in there. Just watching the chainsaw videos you could see it’s the wrong mixture. Just label everything. That isn’t hard. They are certain colors for a reason.
you should plan to do a big tree hack this spring, clear more gradually, chipper again for more cleanup; also think about going all in on commercial compost out back somewhere with space - you have the machines - do a community project with it and give away a bunch - you need sources for leaves, grass, misc biomass - anything organic in bulk will compost but you do need ideal mix carbon/nitrogen. it would benefit the land - release the pigs into rotating paddock scheme and re appropriate that space
That parade is a great tradition to do every year,and this year it was really needed.
I LOVE your Christmas parade! Please don't ever stop - it brings us so much joy around the world too!🎄🐴🚜🛷❄️🛻🎉🛹

This is awesome to see how everything turned out 😀 thank you for sharing this with us 😁❤
The parade made me smile!
Love the parade. I didn’t see Lily and her horse & cart in action in the parade.
This was so cute! What a beautiful idea!
My husband has his fathers 1985 diesel suburban. It has a 40 gal. tank and runs like a dream.
Freeze dry bone broth hack. Pre-freeze your broth in the cubes, then pop them out frozen, THEN put the frozen cubes in the FD.
Oh how I wish I was on your street! That looks so much fun! You are such a fun family!
We freeze dry just about everything ...have yet to have a disaster. I started 3 years ago and have been saving a ton of money....buying on sale and freeze drying !!
I remembered back in the old days Rebecca was against canning and freeze dryer. She's come a long way yay
I wish I could afford a freeze dryer. Have a dehydrator, but...
I remember the tour and all of the glass jars coming home. But never saw a canning project. Glad to see a few projects in canning.
To freeze dry broth, pour the broth directly on the flat trays and keep cycling until it freeze dries into a powder. Then you can reconstitute it like bullion.
Put lights on all the equipment, they do a jeep parade in my neighborhood with lights and it is gorgeous
The big difference with freeze-drying is that the vitamins and minerals never go away during storage and while canning & jarring will works just as good it will only keep for 5-10 years before there's nothing but calories left.

Welcome to the future ;) I've had a FD for about 2 years and love it.
I really liked your little Christmas parade
We have gasoline in the red jerry cans and diesel in yellow.
Exactly. Don’t do it.
Hillbilly parade. Love it. Horses and 4 wheelers in our town too tractors police ambulances bicycles come up last dodge horse patties. 😂❤❤
Oh!!! How wonderful!!! Bless you all!!!
You might want to add those little packets to reduce moisture in the bags and also jars.
I have sampled freeze dried Banana, Apple, Pineapple, and Mango and they are all great. The pineapple and especially mango are just unreal. I wish I had some right now but they're expensive to buy!
Lily’s cart needed jungle Bells 🔔
Robin gave out freez dried fruit and veggies to the grandkids for Christmas, and they loved them,
Happy Holidays Rhodes Family!! 🥰😇🎄🎁🕎❤ Be blessed!
Yall got an amazing family. ❤Blessings 🙌
Great parade. I would have joined you if it wasn’t a several hour flight from California.
Ive wqtched KEVIN from Hidden Heights Farm do eggs in a freeze dryer. Scramble them up and pour them in the try and load they up. Just add water to reconstitute.
This was really beautiful :)

I think the freeze dryer will be amazing for you guys
I’m in Australia and I am seeing your parade Justine…🎅
The dog make me feel so sad😢 it looks so lonely. Dogs need a lot of affection to have a great life❤
😮
I suggest you buy proper colored containers for your gas and diesel. RED/ GAS. YELLOW/ DIESEL. ❤
They do - but someone put the wrong product into the wrong container. Then thought simply putting an X on the containers would let others know the issue - instead of correcting the issue properly
Hopefully this was a teachable moment that will help all involved to recognize the importance of this communication tool (appropriate fuel in appropriate colored container - yep, even color can be a tool! :) ) to avoid future problems. Blessings!
Justin, your own parade made me cry! Maybe it will really grow over the years. Then you can be televised! Awesome.
More I watch this family I wish they meet up with outdoor boys family
I've done my fair share of diesel syphoning, and everything smelled and tasted like diesel for at least a week after the time I had a shot of it through my sinuses.

hey Rhodes family 👀👀🙏🙏❤❤
Don't you use off road diesel? It has red dye added to it. No mistaking it
Our diesel cans are blue and gasoline are red.
Nice parade! I enjoyed it here from Kansas. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah.
You all don’t take care of your expensive equipment. We are supposed to be good stewards over what God has given us. You have been very blessed to be able to have these things. Please show your children how to take care of things properly. Happy New Year 🎉
Stop assuming based on a few videos. IF you'd been watching for years, or paying attention during those years, you'd know that they DO take care of their equipment!!! The problem in recent weeks is that their area just had a MAJOR hurricane wash through their community, taking out quite a lot of it. You'd also understand that if you'd been paying attention!!! Their usual maintenance people might not be able to come out to collect the machines like they usually do!!!
Red jug is always for gas you can even mark it with a sharpie pen for gas only .It's just common sense.
I did not get the whole Christmas parade thing I know you have it every year but that was so confusing.
I bought a bunch of red and yellow fuel jugs from Rural King. I used a Sharpie to mark my red jugs NON ETHANOL ONLY.
Love your channel. Yes, cold weather is upon us. Time to bust out the hats mittens,coats,wool socks and boots.
I love this tradition yal do every Christmas. You have a great audience here online watching. Merry Christmas!
Justin, I’m watching Max Velocity ( weather ) he mentioned you guys may get heavy wind and some rain your way. Just a warning. I hope it doesn’t. Stay safe. I hope you see this!

Whinny is one of the loyalist dog I have seen. That is gone unloved and unfeature. She traveled a long way with you guys on foot. She needs one of those large store bought bones.
I do feel sad for Winnie.❤
Yes!!! I feel like she needs some extra love and on screen time!!
Every time the boys go trail riding. Whinny is right there with them. The Christmas parade she was there. She needs some love and camera time.
I think the whole family has ADHD 😢! Shouldn't be so hard to find shoes and have gasoline and diesel in appropriately labeled cans.
Gasoline in red cans only!!! Yellow cans are diesel!
I have a question where did you get your dinner plates f6
😊😊
Daily Vehicle Checks
Yep. No fun putting diesel in instead of gas.
REFUEL the FUEL BANKS
( multiple cans), JUSTIN.
Suggestion: 1 location clearly marked diesel. I location clearly marked gas. Place the cans in the correct location. Paint each section the color of the cans to avoid confusion.
Or not. Up to you.
Honestly, I’m not surprised the wrong fuel ended up in there. Just watching the chainsaw videos you could see it’s the wrong mixture. Just label everything. That isn’t hard. They are certain colors for a reason.
Do you make freeze dry taco soup packages to sell?
Love the parade! Would Winnie ride in the hay wagon?
Thats how you know your on your last kid 😂😂😂 👢 👟

you should plan to do a big tree hack this spring, clear more gradually, chipper again for more cleanup; also think about going all in on commercial compost out back somewhere with space - you have the machines - do a community project with it and give away a bunch - you need sources for leaves, grass, misc biomass - anything organic in bulk will compost but you do need ideal mix carbon/nitrogen. it would benefit the land - release the pigs into rotating paddock scheme and re appropriate that space
Y'all need to make a concerted effort to take care of your expensive equipment better.
You guys kill me!! I love this ❤
