This morning I got a call, I had giving up hope on... My blind hound dog had gone missing since Oct 20, some hunters found him in the deep deep woods, I picked him up!!
Woo hoo, yay!!!
I love when Jason laughs. His smile makes me feel happy. Brooke I admire for her can do attitude. Mary Carl is so smart and her bird knowledge is just fantastic.
I agree. Fun and inspiring family. Love ‘em.
Esasswasase
Oh my goodness, you just brought a childhood memory back for me mentioning the morgue and stories. My dad worked in a hospital morgue. He was a drinker. He and his mate used to hide their beer under sheets on the sliding drawers in the fridge. Someone used to steal those beers. My dad told his mate, we’re going to find out who it is and ‘fix his little red wagon’.
“I’ll hop onto this drawer and hold the beers. You put the sheet over me and shut the drawer, just about the time the beers were due to disappear”. It duly happened.
Sure enough, at the expected time, my shivering dad felt his cold bed sliding out.
Remember, he still had the sheet over him. Once it was fully out and he felt a touch on the sheet, he sat up, saying
“WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING?”
He was laughing so hard that night, when telling me, his 14yr old daughter, he could barely gasp out……. “That bloke took off like a bat out of ‘hxxx’, disappeared around the corner screaming like a banshee and never finished his shift that day.
Sometime later, I asked if the guy ever returned to his job? Dad smiled and said, “We haven’t seen hide nor hair of him since and no one touches our beers anymore.
Thought you may enjoy that memory too lol.
"That being said" is just a Brooke ism and part of your wonderful personality. Don't let the haters change you, it's the reason the rest of us tune in. My dad was from Alabama, so I love to listen to ya'll.
I love their down home country drawls, ya'll, and I love hearing them exclaiming, Oh, my gracious ❤️❤️
Well said.
Y’all are awesome, keep saying all your regular things, “that being said” I still love to hear y’all tawk. I loved seeing you 3 times this week!😘
Well said 😊
Lester will be so excited to see you wear the Ima Survivor sweatshirt. It’s so fun to see the interaction between your family and the Morrows.
It was so funny when someone sent Lester a ostrich puppet head... They named it Mary.. 😂.. And took it to meet Carl♥
‘That being said.’ It was actually 2 x Brooke. Haha Someone is getting inebriated somewhere out in RUclips follower land.
I saw Lester on Facebook yesterday and he was wearing a Cog Hill cap
Cog Hill, Ima Survivor and Arms Family. My three favorite families.
you need to "skirt" the trailer. Talk to Dutch about how he closed the underside of his trailer up. You will find a tremendous difference on how the trailer holds heat when you have a "skirt" around it
Didn't Dutch just put some straw along the trailer?
We skirt trailers here and we have to wrap pipes in heat tape due to freezing temps.
Cog-a-doodle-do! Ya'll got mail. Nugget wearing a rooster comb and a mail bag. LOL So many options. Maybe an animation intro, Nugget and Jason dancing around the mail? LOL
That’s cute
Love it!!
Cog A Doodle Doo is adorable!
Did you know they make sticky magnetic strips ? You could use them to attach license plates without having to drill holes in the chicken coops.
I’m really enjoying all the extra videos, thanks !!
Terrific idea!
MEAT and 3- You brought it up in the podcast before and said you were going to answer it, but got off topic and didn't answer it. So NOW you've done it! :P
"That being said" is just something you say Brooke. I also noticed that a lot of people in your age group also use the expression. I am as old as your momma. You make me laugh every time you say it. So funny! Don't worry about it!
I’m enjoying all pod casts and vids. Love the animals and the development of Cog 40. You’re doing a great job one step at a time. 🇨🇦😘
Serama chicken dancing reminds me of prairie chickens when they dance to attract a mate. Wonder if they are related in some way in the past.
I thought you were going to move the washing station. Also I’m glad you’re not putting the tags in the house. When Brooke said that on the last podcast my heart sunk. I, as I think most other people liked the quirkiness of your other place. I liked the resemblance of Gunsmokes “Dodge City” with the little houses that looked like they were out of the 1800s. Just sayn’.
We actually did bring both washing stations with us, we just don’t have any water pipes ran yet :)
Brooke, your descriptions of the fantastic local cafes, especially the Flying
Peach🍑, have me yearning for a trip to Alabama!!
Today your description of a "Meat & Three" has this retired Chef saying "Yes" as locally owned/sourced Cafe's with your Southern flare are priceless!
"That being said" thank you for sharing your life's experiences with us!!
Your podcasts are so enjoyable. I look for something from you all everyday.. I recently became a widow, I live in Florida & have friends who live in Alabama. I could watch you all day. Thank you for letting us lonely people be in your life. I feel like you are my family now.
I want to thank you for allowing us to follow your journey. I am in Melbourne Australia, we have just started to come out of hard lockdown number 6. I live alone and even though Cog Hill is so far away, I have felt part of a community. I log on for work and it's a joy to have updates from Cog Hill playing on my iPad whilst I work. In Australia I don't know anyone with a 'pet' emu, they are protected so that would not be possible, in the bush they are in packs and from my bushwalking experience they are scary! I wear my Cog Hill hoodie most days, they wash and wear, no bobbles from washing! They are a great in between season hoodie. Take care and thank you.
So sorry you have had to go through so many shutdowns. A real blessing that has happened with the shut down it how Luke, Sam and staff at Doggy Daycare Farm Trips opened up their farm, services, channel and most of all their hearts to the shelter dogs. Your fellow Aussies have a wonderful channel that brightens so many people's day. LOve watching all those doggies running and swimming with joyful glee. If you dont watch them , check it out.
Amish cabinet makers are amazing too! If you have any in your area they are less expensive as well.
Brooke and Jason your pod cast was a great start to Saturday morning. Love you guys!! 🇨🇦
My mom just bought a house and was fortunate enough to be able to buy what they had on the floor. The wait for ordered appliances was ridiculous. She is very happy what she got!
Brooke, don’t change your sayings for anyone. We all enjoy you both for who you are.
I havent seen "meat and three" in years and years in this area; we also had a "meat and two" on many menus. Here, it was sides whether they were veggies, a selection of potatoes or breads and rolls, soup, or salads; one included a slice of pie.
Oh my! I would never have believed I could get addicted to a family.... I am sorry I do not live next door so I could fix the broken fence that separates' us so I could see first hand all the fun stuff you guys are up to ..... I love "woods" and you all have a "FUN" looking woods with the spring etc..... that is going to be so much fun to watch it all come together and may I add...... I am so glad that the licence plates are going outside..... I didn't want to say anything but since someone else did...... I applaud the idea of putting them on the fence,,, love your family ..... I wish we were related. you are my kind of people. love you.
You just bring a smile to my day!!! Thank you for sharing your amazing life ❤️💜🥰😎👍😍
"I know you are, but what am I? Heh heh!" I sure enjoy these podcasts! Aways something new, funny, interesting.
We never use the gas heat in our camper. We use a ceramic heater. Best thing in the world.
I have never used the propane heat in my camper either. I am staying in my little 28ft camper at this time while my home is being completed.. It was 31° last night. I put runner rugs down on the floor and use electric heaters.. a radiator type heater and (not sure type) large blower heater. I have always had an electric blanket/throw even in the house. I can not sleep when I am cold...I am cold natured as they say. Sometimes setting the heaters on 68° gets too warm and I turn them down to 67°. I love staying in my cozy camper. I also never use the stove/oven. Electric skillet, InstaPot, flat electric cook top, counter top convection oven are my kitchen appliances..or my daughter-in-law cooks and calls me to come eat! I do not drink or use the water. I have a crock with a 3 gal bottle of water for cooking/coffee. I can see why people build the large converted vans and travel. If I was interested in travel I would have one also...I'm a "home body".
Will we ever get to meet Brook's Mom? She sounds like a lovely person I would love to see her in some of the video's and since I am a cat lover, have her show us some of her kitties and doggie's.
Remember Brooke was uncomfortable on camera to begin with, she wasn’t interested in doing a podcast. Now she’s a huge part of the podcast. There’s always hope that Brooke’s mom will let herself be filmed.
My next party will be called "That being said!" I have words or phrases i say all the time too. I think you saying it is fine. Let me quote a famous quote by Jason Smith, "You be you!!" It's true, it's your personalities we love, so continue... "You be you!"
"That being said" actually sounds like a great name for a radio show! Kinda like the radio show called "All Things Considered"... 👍
How about placing the license plates in an upside down triangle that’s 3 lp x 2 lp x 1 lp & every 3-4 ft apart on the fence and would look great with your flags up high above them
That being said, we’ve talked about poop, heating and cooling and appliances and it’s only half way into the video ❤️❤️
You all are so fun to listen to. I love the fact that you tell it as it is. Lol
You all will definitely help people having the same problems.
I'm so happy that you are going to put the license plates on the fence . That is awesome ! Also I can't wait to see the prayer flags to go up .
I love the paint color on the chicken coop 😍 Love watching you guys and all the progress you have made. A farm is always a work in progress.
Johnny Carson opened mail on air.. .funny
Like I said, this week was a CogHill binge-watching of new videos, which was so awesome!!!!!!!
The old Cog Hill was in a tree lined valley so you didn’t get the harsh cold of being on a flat elevation.
Heat rises and cold falls. Not sure how being "down in a valley" was warmer?
Because it passed over them and the trees insulated
I liked the cog hill 40 tag behind you. Y'all look so happy and I hope everything goes great with putting in the water lines. I enjoy all the videos this week. Love y'all and God bless from Huntsville Alabama 🦋🦋🦋🦋
That being said, y'all are just awesome! And so happy you updated that Mu was found.
I saw that Perry Hill got a lot of visits from the Cog Squad. That's worth a few jars of Hot Pepper Jelly IMO!
I wish you shipped to. Tex. Good deal. Cog. Squad
"Chicken People" is also on Curiosity. I've watched it twice. So good! Ya'll are spoiling us lately with all the videos and podcasts! Love watching the journey. :)
Yes yes I so enjoyed all the videos it was great fun to see and hear about everything. I also LOVE 💗 seeing Mary Carl in the videos telling us about her "PRIDE AND JOY" BABIES!! LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH AND I PRAY THAT YOUR NEXT CHALLENGES WILL BE BLESSED WITH EASE AND NO CALAMITIES. LOL😘
Lester got so excited about the farmer dance T-shirt you sent him
I love seeing the license plate for the new Cog Hill 40 and ima survivor sanctuary hat and sweat shirts. Love all you guys. You make me feel part of your family. Your animals are so happy
Two of the most important things I learned remodeling my kitchen, Put all drawers on the bottom and make them and the countertops 30" deep. I did all drawers and as I get older I will never go back. I would use simple shelves on top for years to do all bottom drawers, and I do not like open shelving. I did one section in my current kitchen where the cabinets and countertop are 30 " deep for baking. I discovered I wanted them all that way because I like it so much! I also made the upper cabinets 17" deep. I can put large bowls in the upper cabinets now where I could not do that before. The best part is never having to get on my knees to get stuff out of lower cabinets!
I’m with YOU Brooke…I am sooooo fussy about water…I cannot STAND faucet water!!! I have a reverse osmosis system under my kitchen sink and I have WONDERFUL tasting water every day!!! 💕🌸💕
I asked this question in the past, but haven’t heard an answer: a few videos back you mentioned something about your pigs and I mentioned that I never knew you had pigs other than Peaches. Do you have other pigs, and if so, where are they and why don’t we ever see them?
They have two feeder pigs that never was at cog Hill , they went to the 40 before anyone else did.
I have lived in a 37 ft fifth wheel for almost 7 years. Word of advice let black water tank fill-up and then drain into your septic and then put 10 gallons of water back into your tank. More 411, a propane heater will drain the tanks very fast. A radiator heater is safe and works great. I bought a 100 lb tank from Tractor Supply and it helps keep from running out
I like where you put your new license plate
Another suggestion, if you have two tanks for propane, only turn on one tank at a time so you don’t have to change out your propane in the middle of the night in the cold. I’ve started doing that and it works so you only have to go out and turn on the other bottle instead of changing them out! This requires you to have 4 bottles of propane at one time to start, most of the time you will only have to refill 2 bottles at a time. Just a suggestion. Much love to all ❤️
We has a 40ft tow behind Layton celebrity n our toilet tank we used a cheap laundry powder n vinegar solution n when we emptied it we would put that in an it made the tank walls slippery n "stuff" didn't stick to the sides also made it not have oder utube has a ton of helpful things like that cuz we were spending alot of $ we didn't have an there's alot of other things u can do for dif things n a camper or rv or whatever
I enjoyed the schedule you have come out with. I understand completely though if you are busy getting things done and have to miss some while working for the betterment of your farm and animals! Love watching all do!
I was happy to hear you will be putting the license plates outside somewhere, that way we can see them. Love your new schedule of the videos, I get so excited when I get the notifications!
Put duplicates inside on walls
I am very much enjoying the new schedule, haven't had to watch 'normal' tv all week. 😂
We have resorted to watching OLD shows like Gunsmoke, Rawhide, and Little House on the Prairie, but you still have to deal with nasty commercials. I mean really, children are subjected to such trash with commercials even if you censure their programing and we don't even have children in the house anymore. Love my YT families!
Re: Meat & 3.
You did START to explain it, but then you got side tracked and never circled back.
Are we allowed to take a drink 🍸 when Jason says "that being said" too? Lol.
Keeping it Dutch says “That being said” ALL the time!!! 🥰
In our run my husband built us a Chickmas Tree. Cedar tree with screwed in limbs for the hens to perch on.
Love it!💕💞💖😃
Look forward to all your videos and podcasts ❤️🙏
Good Morning Family…love you guys🥰
Love keeping up with you all❤
Questions:
1. Have you decided on a contrator? You mentioned the pad will be starting soon...
2. Will the pond start this year? Did you find a water source for the pond? I thought the test from months ago was negative...
For the license plates, can you glue magnets on the back and stick them to the chicken coops? Or get long chains or staps and hang the chains/straps over the coops and hang the plates on the chains. No holes in the coops.😊
I love that idea. Magnets! I'm afraid hanging from chains might scratch the paint and make a lot of banging noise when it's wendy. Just a thought.
Here I sit again drinking morning coffee and enjoying your podcast. Thanks for all the good content.
My Favorite farm family!!!
I lived in a camper over two years. I always felt cold regardless of plenty of heat. The biggest issue was the condensation. If you can get a dehumidifier it will help prevent mold. I enjoy your channel and podcast so much thank you.
Guys- I learned years ago to fill up my propane before the prices go up every September. This will save you a lot of money. I think you’re doing a great thing by have a couple ways to have heat and air and other great things you are doing. I love your adventure!
My husband is in radio, almost 40 yrs. When Brooke said “ none the less” I had to laugh! Guess it’s a radio thing! He said it a lot till I pointed out. Again, you guys don’t fail to entertain!
Thank you for the extra videos and podcast. I look forward to them. Makes my day 😂 happy.
Definitely enjoyed all the videos and podcasts! Great job!
Thoroughly enjoyable podcast Cog Hill Family. Love hearing you both giggling about your mis adventures. Love listening to your stories.
Brooke your PeeWee impersonation was hilarious! I’m so glad we got an update on Moo, and it was a happy ending. Have a great day and looking forward to more videos/podcast. Oh! You could name your mail day, “Coghill 40 mail day with Nugget”.
It was Spot On on Pee Wee Herman voice. Lol 😂
Love the Ima Survivor Sanctuary long sleeve hoodie, from Longhorn Lester. They love 💕 All the tshirts from Lester and Jami. Good to see u on here Sheila, Debbie from Robinson Texas (down by Waco area). Lol
Great videos all week. Glad to see them. Thanks for today’s Podcast. Have a great day
Use your license plates to spell out Cog Hill 40 on your fence. That would be cool.
Great idea!!!🦃🐱🐕🦊😃🐐🐔🐓🦆🐣🌻🌼💐
Oh, I can't wait the next dance off will be Jason and a Sarama chicken having a dance off. Marycarl can be the dance director. Can't wait to see this show.
For warmth use an electric blanket. As for the gas you may need to check that the gas will not hurt your birds. I would stick with small heat units. They are not expensive
Only turn on one tank at a time that way you can refill one tank
So excited for you all. Glad that you got the appliances ordered for both houses. Can't wait to see when all done. You all have a blessed weekend 🙏 love watching always.
I'm So glad you're going to get your water lines in for the animals!! Love you guys!! Have a Wonderful Weekend!! 😀❤⚘
Jason and Brooke, are you familiar with Mark Stewart's YT channel titled "Hamish and Kyloe?" Hamish and Kyloe are both Highland cows, and Mark just got his farm licensed as a sanctuary. He is wonderful! He also has pigs, horses, and goats. I highly suggest you check out his channel and perhaps have him as a guest.
Those are some beautiful cattle. Such big babies.
Wow, Nancy... I agree with Ce, those are some absolutely BEAUTIFUL creatures. I especially love that one he's sitting next to in his intro!!
So happy MOO was captured. Glad you're gonna get started running the water lines. I know that's gonna be a big help. Glad you got Bluie rehomed. Great to hear you might be starting the build of your house. Be careful and stay safe out there. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
Definitely loving the videos makes my day, you’re always so cheerful.😊😊👍🏼
I've really enjoyed all the videos this week and appreciate all your efforts. You guys are a delight and always add a spark to my day. 😉
Use a trellis to hang your plates..just attach the trellis to the outside of the coop.
Loving the extra videos!! Yaaay Moo is back home!
Just heard someone recommended zip ties to hang licenses plates. They don’t last long in the sun. They turn brittle and come apart.
Lol! Brook you did a great PeeWee laugh.
I’ve really enjoyed all the videos and podcasts. I’d watch everyday if there was one to watch. That is how much I love you guys.
Oh Lordy, I love when you say “that being said”. It always makes me chuckle. Love your podcasts.
I’m really enjoying the more frequent vlogs & podcasts. Good luck with the cabinets & running the water lines!
Regarding the license plates, can you use a cattle panel and zip tie them onto the panels instead of directly to the coops?
I enjoy having all the videos and podcasts. You all are such a lovely couple to watch and listen to. I look forward to seeing them.
In our area we have Habitat for Humanity stores. They stock items that came out of homes that were remodeled. They have nice things.
Get yourself a couple of extra propane tanks for safety I have lived in a camper for 6 years and it has been a life safer to have the extra tanks.
Good Morning from Louisiana, I really enjoy watching y’all!! Have a great weekend!
So happy Moo was found! God answered prayers!
Love your schedule but I know it must be hard on you guys. You are getting so much done and I'm loving every minute of it. That being said...........LOL. I love your channel so much so don't'change a thing. The animals all look so happy. Oh yes, I think you should put the tags wherever you think because you had such a lovely and whimsical farm at the other place how in the world could you not make this area unique.
Jason and Brooke, have you thought about adding a heat wrap, on the new water lines. You will need a heated water hose and electric heater for camper. If you add bubble wrap to your camper and tiny house window, this will help reduce cold air coming into the camper.
You could angle the license plates and make a herring bone pattern too!
I look forward to this so much!
You just make me smile and laugh out loud!
That being said...😁
You should put a skirt around the bottom of the trailer to keep the cold wind from going under it really does help . We used tin with a insulation board behind it.
💜💕 love frm Ks
This video made me laugh out loud alot. My German Shepherd dog is looking at me like what's going on..lol
Y'all make my day. You roll with the punches and can laugh at yourself. Keep up the great work. Love from Ontario Canada 🍁🍁🍁💕
Brooke, you shouldn't feel bad for saying "That being said...", because Dutch at Keeping it Dutch says that ALOT! Maybe even more than you do! 🤗
I like be able to seeing the animals through the fence!
Awe, I love “That Being Said, please don’t stop, lolololol In fact I have noticed several other you tubers use it! I think it sounds very intellectual!
Loved the videos these past week! I looked everyday for one and enjoyed each of them I loved the gift and goodies video. The excitement when you guys or MaryCarl opened each package. The items were unique and I was excited for you guys. Loving the little camper being a great place for some of your videos. Thanks for sharing with all of us! Until next time have a great weekend.
Brooke, Keep a quart plastic container in the ham's bathroom. After using toilet, flush completely and quickly.When it closes, pour the container water in as a clean seal. Also keep some Poo- Pourri (name brand) on hand. Just one little spray makes a huge difference. Walk out and close the door. DON'T squirt more than once. I like the citrus one.
You will go through those tanks pretty fast. You may want to think about getting a larger external tank from gas company. Also get a dehumidifier. Another tip may want to cover underneath the bottom of camper with some underpinning.
We lived in a 5th wheel through 2 winters, in Washington state, & would always run out of propane in the middle of the night! It was really cold with snow! Finally we got an 80 pound tank & that stopped the late night trips to get propane!
Thank you for all of the videos. I’m always happy to see what you are up to! Keep them coming! We love you All!
Hi Jason, don’t know if this will reach you in time. But if it’s going to be cold below freezing it’s best to disconnect the hose from the faucet and let the faucet drip to prevent the faucet and related piping from freezing damage. Really enjoy your Pod Casts. Also there is a grease like product that you put on the gasket to keep it flexible and maintain the proper seal between the Flush Flap and the odour down below.
