Aweee 😍 Livvy skipping in the snow w.out a care in the world. So precious!
Leo : Olivia is a very smart and well behaved little lady ! Its definitely due to her parents being good people ! Great job !
Thanks, Al! I love the care you took to protect Willow during your drive.
What fun memories you are making with Livvie! Happy Monday.
Al takes such good care of his animals.
I love those goats they are so funny but so are Pluto and Figaro and all the chickens. Just enjoy your video so much.
I love how much you care for your animals. Wish everyone was like that 💕💕
I don't know how you managed without that new sled! ❤🌅🌵
We raised chickens when I was a kid, I'm much older now. But my dad always had a single light bulb on a timer hanging from the ceiling in the coupe and we had eggs all year. I thought maybe you could get a solar light and do the same. Wouldn't have to be an expensive one, as a cheaper one would only run a couple hours after dark, which about all you'd need. Love your videos, sorry I more of a lurker then a commenter. But I grew up on a farm, and if I see something I think will help, I usually comment.
It worked for us last year, but one big thing is to make sure it comes on early, and doesn't stay on after dusk; It's easier on the chickens for the light to turn on abruptly in the mornings, but turning off abruptly can leave your chickens out of their nest boxes in pitch black.
Fingers crossed new kids are on the way. I bet they are. Like they say, three times a charm. That sled sure has come in handy. I love Olivia's new bracelet maker. That one is so neat and sure helps to make them easier. That was so kind of a subscriber to send her.
Ketchup for sure! Great gift Olivia! Thank you Viewer! Good luck on the breeding
No ketchup, but LOVE Tabasco! Fingers crossed that Willow's date went well! Can't wait to see those babies running and jumping around the homestead. **EXCITED**
Hey Cheif thats your sled you drag it anywhere you want ! Lol !
Sorry Al, but I'm with the girls. I like ketchup on my scrambled eggs and home fries. We could tell when our cow was in heat, usually she was difficult when milking her. Once when she was in heat I made the mistake while taking her to the neighbors farm, I got between her and the bull pen. The neighbor laughed once he knew I was alright.
I know that you are excited about the goat water not freezing, but don't forget to change it to keep the microbials down. 💜🌞🌵
al cut a piece of pvc to make a handle for your sled, i been watching you pull that thing around just by grabbing the rope i,m sure pullin the firewood is quite heavy, ms olivia would like it as well for easy pulling hope that helps your fingers
The Mighty Girl Olivia, Queen of snow mountain!
Al, good luck with Willow. Exciting to have spring babies! We managed not to lose power here. I would like to have a deep well hand pump, as our artesian well is 200' deep.I only put together the occasional sustainable workshop locally. My next one is at our town academy this spring for the students. Did you know that in 1935, the percentage of working farm families was 40%? A 2015 report came up with 2% today at best, with the average farm owner at 57. Keep showing folks how to grow food and raise small farm animals! You are doing a wonderful service, by sharing your back to the land journey.
I'm pretty sure Willow is pregnant. It warms my soul to see you play with Olivia. :) Another wonderful day on the farm. :) Thanks for sharing!
Your an awesome dad Al olivia and Gina are very lucky to have such a great man
Like i said before .. I've had our oldest jet sled 8yrs and I'm not gentle... Firewood, manure, and not only when there is snow. In fall & spring I use our lawn tractor to haul manure in it. No snow. The bottom takes a whooping but for $50 stretched over 8yrs I say its well spent.
So cute, when you ask the goat if the watered was a win, she nodded yes
What fun watching Olivia find slide in her winter wonderland.
What a productive day- from taking Willow on "a date", to preparing for a power outage, to having fun in the snow with Libby. A really good day. I think Pluto stays so warm even though she is "naked" now because she is so FULL of energy. I bet she and Figaro snuggle up in front of the wood burning stove while you work on videos?
Thanks for taking us on your drive through town... It was so picturesque... Scenery I remember from postcards... So different from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵!
It’s so fun to see Olivia play. My girls are hoping for some snow soon. Maybe we should move further north? Lol
Very thoughtful the way you care for your animals
God bless
Sometimes I put salsa on my scrambled egg for a change. Once I had left over stewed tomatoes that I put in them and my hubby said ew until he tried it. Most of the time it's just salt and pepper. Love that bracelet kit. What an awesome gift.
Great job. Al. it is good to see you and your daughter playing in the snow.
Olivia you are the cutest and most polite, well mannered and last but not least QUEEN OF THE MOUNTAIN 👑. I really hope you all have little baby 🐐 this May. Have fun in the snow ❄️❄️❄️ XOXOXOXO
I enjoy your little segments of where's Figaro.
Really enjoy seeing your *Productive Day* on the land with family...
My Grandma use to say to us kids..
*"Making proper Decisions ensures good comfortable Long term survival."*
Cheers 😍👍
I Definitely use Ketchup on breakfast potatoes of any kind, eggs, sausage, etc, while hubby wants to “taste” his food. So glad y’all hit 50,000 subbies! Congrats! We love watching your channel daily, you have become a part of our family. Again, Blessings & CONGRATULATIONS!🎈🎊🎉
I’m so happy you guys are using proudly South African lamps. They work really well and I love mine.
Regards Quentin ( South Africa )
good day to you Al, Gina & Olivia !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on & off the homestead !! 👨🌾🎥👍✝
Wow, Al! Your goats always appear to be very well-behaved! How did you ever manage to make that happen? I remember that goats, often times, were quite mischievous critters on my grandparents' Rocky Mountain cattle ranch! I'm sure they would have loved hearing your secrets to raising goats...and, why you want more of them!
I believe some if it has to do with the breed.
Good to know--about the different breeds. I'm sure that many viewers are equally impressed by your goats; and, they're so good looking as well! Good luck having some kids this spring! : )
Just saw you are over 50k subscribers! Congratulations!!
WaHoo! I got to go for a sled ride (14:45) today! Yipee! ❤🌅🌵
My friends father had a heart attack and we were so close and I didn’t want her driving so another friend Sally and I drove her to her father in Keene New Hampshire. That’s as far into New Hampshire I’ve been but it was a step back in time for me Al more quaint than my Southern New England Groton and Mystic, Ct., I love it all though. Figaro is so smart everywhere and checking everything out. Olivia is adorable and energetic and smart. Have a great evening.
My husband doesn't use ketchup on his food... instead, he uses salsa. A lot of it!
I like salsa too. Usually less white sugar. 💜🌞🌵
AZ here. Salsa too
BBQ sauce on breakfast bowls. Oh yes and Tabasco. Yummy!!💓
Bless you Lumnah family!!! No ketchup for me but I say, to each his/her own!!!! So enjoy your videos Al, thanks for sharing 💕
Are we not blessed to have weather forecasts to help prepare in advance for possible problems. I loved when you were talking to Willow about her date and the comment “I don’t want to talk about it” made me chuckle. 🙈
Congratulations on reaching 50K. Well deserved.💥⚡️💥
We truly are blessed!
You guys are funny! It's wonderful.😄 Have s great day!😃👍🌤🌞⛄
Willlow says that conversation is not for in front of the "kids" Al.
I'm with Olivia and Gina, I am a Ketchup-a-holic.. love it!
Ketchup catch-up, always great on eggs! Love it on Mac & cheese too ;)
I'm with you, Al. No ketchup on my eggs.
With any luck Willow got knocked up 😀. Great to see ninja cat is on duty guarding his farm
Pluto!! All legs and pure joy!
No ketsup!!
You should get Pluto a harness for pulling and she could do the light pulling for you.
Very nice; Once you get your goat pasture done next summer you may want to consider a buck. Besides breeding purposes they also help run off predators. So many people just keep them separate for selective breeding but that keeps them from doing 90% of their job. They breed every now and then but they protect the herd 24/7 if pastured with them
I hope Willow took for you all. You are really getting your moneys worth out of that sled. If you are worried about the sled bottom when you bring it into the house, an inexpensive rug runner would help. We got a lot of rain two days ago (here in MO) and a lot of wind. No more snow ....yet.
Ketchup with potatoes is a must.
Maybe this winter try sprouting some alfalfa or barley for the chickens? My grandparents had a farm and we always saved eggshells, baked them at about 250 until they were good and dry then crushed them and added them to some river sand and spread it in the inside coop in winter. The rest of the year they were free-range and got all the grit they needed from foraging, but we still gave them the crushed eggshells for extra calcium. You have to crush them though, or the chickens learn to peck and eat their own eggs.
If you have dirty eggs that means the chickens should be de-wormed. Maybe add some DE to their feed.
Soooo many Ketchups! I would have never guessed. I'm with you Al. Too much salt in Ketchup anyways.
You should get a weight lifting belt, attach a carabiner to the back and you can pull the sled from your waist instead of dragging from one side. Might help if you get backaches.
I was just thinking as you drug the sled across the concrete, that you should put down the rugs from the outside kitchen to protect the bottom of the sled! 🤣🤣🤣
It was 61F here yesterday! Today 39F and rain and freezing rain yuk! Hope you get that warm front up your way too :) No ketchup! lol wait I do add a lil to home fries once in awhile
You guys get the icy rain and we just had a little earthquake 5 mins north of us. 🤷♀️at least we got a bit of sun today!
Hi. AL nice to see your goat is so healthy, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👨👩👧👸👕👓🐩🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🐐🌱🏡🎥👍👍👍
Tighten the ratchet straps on your storage shelter to keep the roof taught so the snow slides off better.
Have a good day all!!
yes I seen Figaro! KETCHUP! ON POTATOES! oR FRESH GARDEN TOMATOES! And if this weather keeps up, your going to wear out that sled before the season is over! I had my grandson over yesterday to hang Christmas lights outside it was 66 degrees and sunshine here in the Hocking hills of Ohio and today it is 40 and rain! So hopefully you will get a warm up there soon. But enjoy it while you can it doesn't last long!
Ketchup is a must on breakfast! Especially, biscuits and sausage gravy.😋
We have a black sled like that. Love it use it almost every day
the concrete won't wear out your sledge like dragging it across your well plowed driveway. they used to shovel snow ONTO covered bridges to help preserve the sled runners. try leaving a path un-shoveled for the sled. that gravel WILL indeed gouge a big 'ol hole in your sled within 2 seasons. ( did)
Ketchup with eggs n potatoes yummmmm. I’m with the girls. Great videos.
My dad and my sons loved ketchup. My oldest son would even put it in a bowl and eat it with nothing else. Weather wise our lows the last couple of nights have been the 70s. But forecast says winter is coming back again in a couple of days and we will see 40s again
You can easily re-glass and gel coat the bottom of the sled. I would be interested to see what the bottom of it looks like at the end of the season.
Your water bowl is working with out power. Willow is becoming a mommy, and you're, going to have babies goats or goat. Baby goats are so cute. Figerooooo running around to make rodents fear his claws. So you are going to have lotts of things that spring in May! I am not a ketchup in the morning person, and one of my best friends used to use sriracha on his eggs. Man, just the scent gets me that early in the morning. Well the Lumnahs are getting up to 50,000 subs, GREAT!!!!🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐥🐤🐣🐓🐔🦃🦃🐔🐓🐣🐤🐥🐥🐤🐣🐓🐔🦃🐐🐐🐑🐐🐑🐥🐤🐣🐓🐔🦃🐩🐩🐩🐩🐈🐈🐈🐈
Olivia your not just queen of the mountain your the Queen of this country LOL we love you
Dad that is creepy some package comes to the door with out knowing who it is from or why they are sending it . you are a nice guy on cam and some people will take advantage of that . please be careful and show people you can be a aggressive protector and and a out out corn hole if you need to be . When it comes time to be . love the channel hope you good luck and fur babies in may .
That's what I was thinking
Ketchup
As an optional flavouring. Mostly on fried potatoes and meat.
As long as the cooking is tasted first without it.
St. Francis says thank you for taking such good care of his animals. John M OFS
Honestly you did not go overboard on protecting her from the cold wind. I've seen many goats, pigs etc die from not being protected during transport from the cold wind. Great job
No ketchup on eggs, but I love ketchup on potatoes. You have a great set up. And hopefully next year you will have a lot of kids. Have a Wonderful Day. Thanks for sharing.
There were plenty of horse drawn carriages and wagons in the Littleton area well into the 1920s and 30s. The State of New Hampshire was still using a team and wagon for some road work in the 1930s. Many of the locals could not afford cars either. My father was born in 1928 and would ride in the wagon with his father from Twin Mountain/Carroll to Whitefield to the old grain mill to load up on feed for the teams they used to pull road graders and such.
Catsup on breakfast potatoes and Chipotle Tobasco sauce on the eggs.
Al, You gotta try the Chipotle Tobasco. You'll love it. The girls probably will, too.
That polyethylene sled should be very scuff resistant.
Where was the grain milk in whitefield?
@@LumnahAcres The grain mill is on the south side of the town square on the north side of Jon's River (My 7th great uncle was Jon). I think the grain mill has been restored into an art studio or such. When my grandfather passed away in Littleton in '92, my father had the hearse make a loop around the Whitefield town square that was such a part of my grandfather's and father's weekly routine then head on down Rt 3 to the family cemetery (Straw) near Carroll.
My father tells of a time in the early 30's when they were heading to the mill for feed. They came across a big fancy car of wealthy New Yorkers that slid off the road and was stuck in the mud. My grandfather unhitched the wagon from the team and hitched the team to the front of the car. He stood on the rigging and got the team pulling. The car came unstuck with a lurch that threw my grandfather to the ground. The car drove right over him because it had big tall tires. He was unharmed. Now, the New Yorkers were being pulled down the road by a spooked team of draft horses with nobody at the reins. Those crazy New Yorkers.
Have you met any old, old timers who remember those days in Littleton, Whitefield, Carroll and Lancaster? My dad would have been 90 this year so some of his generation should still be alive. There were a lot of hard working people scratching out a living in that area.
I love your videos, I only have three hens, but some days I’m pretty busy doing chores on a mini scale and I love it 😄👏👏👍
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Condiments are a major food group in my house. Smoked Tabasco sauce on scrambled eggs and ketchup on fried eggs. Anything else would be uncivilized.
Now it's a wait and see thing. She moved to the other farm well and that is a good thing. Now you get into animal husbandry. Keep good records.
Love those lamps! Will look into. Thanks! Hope you will have a kid come May - exciting!
I'm no animal expert, but I think you can tell if it worked by wether or not she was smoking a cig when she's done.
Is it cheap to take them to a breeder? I see a lot of people keep a couple of Billies for breeding, so I wonder if it's worth it. And don't drag our sled on the concrete!😃😃
Since we bought the goats from her this year she didn't charge us for the breeding
Get a furniture dolly to put in front of door to slide the sled up onto and pull that inside, might work.
Green salsa
Just ordered to lanterns and after watching the story about how they are made ie fair trade, locally in improvished south africa im going back to order several more as christmas presents. Love this!
Bracelet-maker ---- how fun !!!
Al, not sure what day this video was made. Yesterday (Sunday) we had 61 degree weather in Southwestern Pennsylvania. I put ketchup on my scramble eggs and my breakfast bowls. So Olivia you are not alone. My husband uses hot sauce. Ok, Olivia please send some of your emgery please. Lol.
That sled has more than paid for itself. Also my hubby likes both ketchup and hot sauce. I like it without. Love your videos.
Ketchup is for every thing but jello or ice cream Amen! Also the sled Off Grid Homesteder channel uses one of those behind a snowmobile to haul firewood all winter long you will never harm that, it is not a cheap dish pan from the dollar store! LOL
You make me laugh! (They Did The Deed 3 Times)🤣🤣🤣
Awe love watching and learning from you
Ketchup has up to 40% sugar in it - no ketchup for me.
Anyway, I also like to taste the food, not only ketchup, like you, Al.
But it works good for dissolving burned in crusts in the pan, or for cleaning oxidated metal, like my old drum cymbals. The tomato acid is very strong.
And congrats to the 50K subs.
Sincerely, tom
Woohoo kids in May fingers crossed. Your sled will hold up. Mine has been threw so much, wood, poo, hay. I can tell you there is a 2×4 in the front do to the rope pulling threw and a wood handle put on so the rope isnt so hard on the hand. Like the light we have one with petoskey stones in it. Oh Ms.O wheres the ⛄.
Love that think sound when you’re stacking well seasoned wood.
I put ketchup, hot sauce (habanero) and sometimes sriracha sauce on my breakfast (eggs, potatoes, etc.)
Moo-arvelous!!!! 50K subs!!! You could always paint the bottom and sides of the sled with truck bed liner.
No ketchup! Fingers crossed re goat, and, you didn't tip us over in the sled! Yay!
Hello from Russia, you already have snow, we still do not have snow. Good farm, good kids.
Oh wow that's surprises me you guys don't have snow yet!
@@LumnahAcres We have -5 Celsius and 2 cm of snow. Although I live in the latitude of Vancouver (Canada)
No plowed roads, freezing their tuckesses off, no heat, wind in their horse n buggys. Sounds like fun. Brrrr
Ketchup is horrible ... now mustard is the way to go.. but not on eggs. Eggs are cooked in bacon grease salt and pepper and potatoes and onions and peppers and mushroom... dang.. now I'm hungry... off to bring my 11 jars of chicken broth down to my pantry. Have fun be safe, Shannan Jensen
