- Lots of work here at our "new' off grid cabin- including getting those trees off the roof and more cleanup- doesn't seem to end! I decide the only way to get all the debris off the roof is to get up there. Let's see how that goes...
Thanks for your views, comments, and support!

Hi Brooke I bet Bud, Chet, Evelyn and Joe would be happy to see how good the roof still looks and that you and Dave are the new caretakers of the cabin! ❤️😁😉
for sure wish i knew the story

Hi Brooke , just thought for your 2 kids not wanting to be on camera, could they do some research into the previous owners of this place???? Both busy with work and studies no doubt, but it was a thought. It'd be fabulous to discover the who , how, why , etc of them and if they're around still to watch you renovate it back to life. Cheers Heth xxxx
Hi Brooke! Love watching you save this old house!
thanks!
Wow great skill❤
Brooke, on the roof: “I need a drink” me watching Brooke on the roof: “I need a drink too! So glad you didn't fall...scary! Love your videos.
bahahah
Hide those berries and new trees from deer! love the vlog!
Sehr schönes Video
👍 grüsse aus Germany
This made my day 😂
Oh the drama! Scary. The LORD made your feet like hind’s 🦌 feet... I’m so glad you did not fall ❤️
Totally loving watching the transformations you two do. You have one of the most interesting channels.
thanks so much!
Yes please! Missed you!
I can't wait to see the after video, what you're gonna turn it into.
Nice to see someone testing for asbestos.🐾🙏🏻✌🏻
I love the area around the cabin! Can’t wait to see the transformation!
me toooo
You have good sense of balance Brooke. Glad you got the roof cleaned off with no falls. Lots of work accomplished!
You and Dave are the hardest workin' couple on TH-cam! You made amazing progress on the cabin in this vid. Well done, you two!
You and Dave are the bomb. I love both of your channels. Wish I was there to help. Work like this is so rewarding. Can’t wait til we see the finished results. ❤❤
thanks much!
Thank you for the update. Brooke, WOW! going on that roof! So much debris to get off and you just climbed up there and got it done! Great camera angles and shooting to give us the experience of being on the roof with you. Sounds like you have a busy summer planned. Looking forward to seeing all of it. I am going in the woods and I am getting happy!
sweet thanks!
You inspire me so much! I am a 58 year old woman going off grid in the Andes mountains in Chile. I bought the property last year and am moving there in November. I have gotten SO much great information from you and Dave which has eased some of my worries. I am a little scared but it’s my dream and I am sure I can do it. Watching you be such a badass has been a vitamin for me❤️
This is great
Can't wait to see it completed!! Moose is so adorable. Love all the new plants.
Hi Brooke I love to see that you and your husband are doing this project together! I watch both of you channels. So no matter where or what you two are doing ill be there to watch. So keep the videos coming!!❤❤❤
Hello Brooke & Dave 🤗 WOW - the roof looks nice all cleaned off 👍 so excited to go along for your journey of remodeling this home😊 Take care 🙏🇺🇲
I absolutely love you two! You complement each other, you work so well together! What a blessing to witness your journey together! I would love to be your neighbor, BUT, I’ll just settle for being a subscriber to both of your channels- And your brother-in-law’s too!
thanks laura!
❤ You both! Very hard workers! You will definitely put your mark on that house! Lots of work but in the end I know it will be great! ❤️
I was on pins and needles watching you clean off that roof; glad to see you weren't alone out there! Looks amazing!! And no asbestos is amazing, too- what a relief because that would have been a mess. So fun watching your projects evolve.
yes what a relief
I love watching people work. 😅 Can hardly wait to see the finished house. Love you guys. ❤
You'll have a looooooong wait. I hope you enjoy all their adventures in between !!!!
@@heatherclayton-callaghan4270 I will...
I marvel at your stamina, Brooke! Fantastic job done on the roof.
It's coming along nicely! I know that in time, you guys are going to have a really beautiful and cozy retreat in those woods. I'm looking forward to the next video, wherever it might come from!
This Place looks so spacious. It would be perfect for gathering friends or family for a big camping party 🥳
What a big job you both have ahead of you. I know you’ll make it all worth the hard work and it’ll turn out fantastic. You both make great videos. Thanks
You were blessed to get a good roof. Great news, no asbestos. Brooke you are amazing that you got the roof cleaned off without falling. You go girl.
Love watching everything you and Dave do.
No matter how long it takes, I’m here !!!
You both are so upbeat .
Thank you both for allowing me to come along on your journey 👍🏻🌻❤️❤️❤️
thanks!
Do not be in a hurry to burn all the wood. You are blessed with dry wood. Make neat piles so that you have warmth in the Spring and Fall. Put lattice around the bottom after the boards around the perimeter are gone. So much to do, but take your time.
Do not be in a hurry to burn all the wood.
Dave and Brooke good job , cannot wait to see the finish job. Love watching you guys work..
The work you guys have put in, really shows already! Can't wait to see what you do with the place.
Wow Brooke….this is going to be an awesome cabin! Nice piece of land and so many possibilities! I love your determination to get things done….I’m a bit like that too, but I’m 70 years old now and it takes a little more than determination these days. 😂
Thanks for keeping us informed. Good that you had no asbestos !!! You can mulch your blueberry plants with all those pine needles.
Well you guys definitely have a little bit of firewood. I was holding my breath when you were on that roof. Glad there’s no asbestos. I’m here for the long haul. Small steps, one day at a time. It’s going to be amazing when it’s finished. Hugs and love to you & Dave!!❤️❤️
thanks!
Wow!!! Way to go Brooke! That roof job is amazing!!!♥️
Brooke, you scared me to death on that metal roof!!! Never, never!!! get on a roof without nonslip soles!!! Also scared me when you had your ladder turned sideways toward the house...that can make it prone to tipping when you climb on and off, but you turned it around later...yay! I'm also glad you were sitting while you were doing alot of the pushing the debris off. You were being careful, and did an amazing job!!! Now, go order yourself some nonslips, girl!!! 😘
Looking good guys! Brooke ,I was glad to see you weren't up on the roof without having Dave there with you !😊
he showed up when i was bout done. he didn't know i was gonna get up there tho
You guys have already made so much progress on this property. Great news on the asbestos results too as that would have been a royal pain. Look forward to seeing the transformation in time.
Dm me go claim your package.
Here I thought, is she crazy up there with no one around. Midway through I see Dave was with you. Shweew! Only half crazy. Much better! 👌🏼😂
I love how capable you are. Reminds me of myself 20 years ago. My husband and I reroofed our former house by ourselves. We worked every weekend and every day after work, til dark. It took us a month! But we got it done and it only cost us $800. At 65, I don't see myself on another roof unless its a flood. Y'all are amazing and I love how you can take something so run down and through your efforts, create real value. Looking forward to seeing this cabin as it progresses.
Wow, great progress & great news of no asbestos! Have a great spring & summer! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦
I love the the property that surrounds this house. It looks so peaceful and relaxing. Brooke I am jealous of your blueberry, cherry and hazelnut plantings. I have been wanting to plant blueberries, but we have a black bear that likes to hang out behind our house. I definitely don't want him to think we are a free food source. Can't wait to see the progress and transformation of this house.
yes i'm def rolling the dice here - same
Roof looks great, Brooke. Good job. Happy to see this next video about the progress.
Looking good for 51 years of age Brooke. You are a good role model for both women and men. Getting out in the fresh air and exercising keeps you healthy. It's worked for me and I'm 66.
You made me quite nervous up there, Brooke, but I'm glad it went well. I can't wait to see more of your journey. Thanks for sharing.
Brooke, I love watching You and Dave quietly working together on the same project. I’m looking forward to seeing y’all reach the water for your new well. Stay safe🙏
Dm me go claim your package
😂 Totally get your overwhelm, but if anyone is up to the challenge the two of you are Brooke!!! I’m afraid I would have run and needed to take a nap after surveying the situation. I know that on the other side of this project you guys will be so proud. Another notch in the belt for the people who ain’t afraid of NOTHING.
Dm me go claim your package.
great job Brooke, the roof looks great, can't wait to see it finished. I have done this kind of work before and it is hard. Take your time and enjoy
Dm me go claim your package…
Loved it. Can’t wait to watch the process! Please stay safe!💕🙏🏼
thanks!
You could have just tested the porcupine, since it chewed pretty much everything...
😀😀
lol his name is phil
Looking forward to tag along on this journey Brooke! Thank you for sharing, it is always a pleasure to watch!
Dm me go claim your package.
Amazing place. I love the woods. Awsome job cleaning the roof Brooke.
Man what a work horse you are Brooke! Great job! I love watching these videos with you and Dave. Awesome!!!
Really surprised with the roof. Looks wonderful and should last for many more years.
Take care up on old roofs! Give Dave a hug and you get one too! Love you two❤️❤️
Brooke, you totally freaked me out standing on the top of that ladder and climbing onto that roof. Of course a lot of that stems from me coming off a ladder and going down 10 -12 feet a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, I know, there was a little padding on the ground but still. Gravity is more than a rumor.
Great progress. Love both your and Dave's channels.
No holes in the roof from the trees? Awesome! No asbestos? Awesomer! So much potential! So glad there was progress without injury.
You all worked hard to start this long project. There is no moss growing on your boots. Steady is the way I hear. Great video. Thanks Brooke.
Ya know, I had a thought. I've been watching ALOT of yours and Daves videos the past few days and I remember one you did where you mentioned people were complaining about you cutting down trees. I also just a bit ago finished your video on the storm damage to your house and community about 4yrs. or so ago. Then I just finished this one, and the one Dave did on his and Ryans cleanup. The next time someone complains about you cutting down trees, refer them to these videos and show them that Mother Nature does far more damage than you could possibly ever do. Love the videos Brooke!!
No Brooke I don't "enjoy watching" you working but appreciate your skillsets and enjoy learning new things from you and it motivates me to want to get to work myself on something. Thanks for your hard work inspiring me!😊♥
awesome thanks!
Huge job clearing that roof off. I'm amazed that it is relatively (if not completely) undamaged! I would have thought it would be all eaten away. And finding that date (1972) and the names: what a cool piece of information! Wishing you the best and will look for your occasional updates on this long term project, Brooke!
I was in a sweat while you were on that roof! You guys are doing a great job on the cleanup! Can't. wait to see the interior demo! Thanks for sharing, Brooke!
I’m SO happy I found your channel! It’s brought my daughter & I together in a way we haven’t been for a while now. We’re gathering the items we’ll need to build 😅 a little A-frame like the one you built. You give me inspiration and your videos help bring to a more peaceful place. Thanks and God bless!
I found your channel a while back and then watched an episode with my 4 year old daughter. She now prefers to watch your videos instead of cartoons. She chants “girl in the woods! Girl in the woods!” 🤭 Which makes my heart happy. Thanks for sharing your life with us. You’ve also encouraged us to get outside even more and get happier. 😁
Brooke, you are one Gutsy Lil' Chick, on and off that roof, glad to see you were safe. Looking forward to the future transformation. Stay safe and healthy!
You have got to be one of the hardest workers I have ever seen. You just don't seem to quit. Great job cleaning up the roof and the dead wood mess.
good job Brook, you are so lovable. Thanks for sharing.
You folks are a hardworking couple✅😄❤️🙏🏽💯🐕 May God continue to bless your family!!
You two are such a hard working team, and always make everything seem so doable!! I love the positive vibes in every situation!! Thanks for the great vlogs , truly enjoy them!!! Looking forward to the next ones. Take care 🥰
You made me very nervous with your roof cleaning. Glad you didn't slip and slide. House is coming along. Love seeing the yard get under control.
As nervous as I was seeing you working up on that steel roof, it's hard even for me to believe that I once flew an Ultralight airplane "solo" and loved every minute of it. Putting my cabin's steel roof on was one of my least favorite things about the build (made me think of being on an elevated "Slip-n-Slide"). Now that the weather here in Michigan is improving (ha-ha!) I'll be putting some "finishing touches" to it. So glad you all have stayed safe during tree and debris removal, Brooke! Kihelakayo, friends ... God Bless you and yours
Brook you are such an Amazing women your a work horse you put such love and talent into all these projects! I love watching you and Dave build This house is going to be unbelievable when youre done I cant wait to see the end results!! Just the clean roof made a big difference wow!! Y'all are such a special beautiful couple❤ love y'all God Bless...🌟🙏🌟🤗🏡
thanks much!
My stomach dropped a little with you on the roof! You rock, Brooke!! ❤
Dm me go claim your package..
Who could not love this? 🤔 These folks are the real McCoy!🤠😎
I love hard work. I can sit and watch you all day.
Just want to thank you both for all your work, my wife and I watch all your content and find it very inspiring. This summer we are building a cabin. Your videos helped us to commit to getting dryed in this summer. Living our own Alaska dream
Thank you both for everything you do
I'm amazed at how clean that roof is under all that debris!
This episode could have been named " Girl on the Roof"! That's dangerous work! Well done! 😀 👍
Hi there from UK! I started watching your videos through lockdown, back to back. Particularly enjoyed watching the snow when it was a red hot day here. Really enjoyed watching them! Thanks so much!!
awesome thanks!
Good to see the cleanup progress on the ole cabin. Congratulations!
Hey Brooke 👋 So enjoying this cabin series. This should have had one of those…”Don’t do this at home warnings” lol. That roof is tough and looks like new underneath! Loved the Chimney ❤️. You should get a photo of it for inside the cabin. Have a blessed week 🙏
lol
You guys have brought this place so far. I can't wait to follow the rest of the journey. You and Dave are the two hardest working people I know. Be careful. Always in my prayers. 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻
Just discovered your channel - I like your no-nonsense approach! You go, girl!
I almost fell a dozen times while watching you on that roof. Good Lord above Brooke!
Brooke and Dave can’t wait to see what you guys do to the property.
Hi, Brooke! Such great progress. I cannot wait to see how this project unfolds. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. ❤
Yay, glad you've finally made another video! It's been a while since you all cleaned it out. Thank you!
your property looks real nice now that the yard is mostly cleaned up thanks to your hard work.
Nice to see a couple of hard working people just do the job with no complaining or fake drama.
Glad you are safe. Can't wait to see the finished product.
You all sure had a lot of work to do, but you got it done. The roof looks great, the fire pit looks like a great place to relax, and the dog is having a great time running around. Glad you have made it this far and look forward to the next video.
Very wise decision on the testing. Just because it's a cabin doesn't mean it can't have materials contaminated with asbestos or lead.
Are you kidding Brooke... Heck yeah we're along for the ride! Always! ❤️
I'm impressed the plaid wallpaper room has the lines in the plaid matching.
Love watching the progress on your new property . Thanks for sharing .
Fun to see your newest project taking shape! Amazing how the roof looks now! 👍
Love your channel and all you do! Looking forward to seeing the current progress of the new cabin 🏠🧹🪟
WOW Brooke what a great accomplishment getting all that off the roof. Well for both of you. Was really glad to see a video, lots of work but nice to be able to see your progress. ❤ We are along for the ride Brooke. God bless. 🙌🏽
Hi you guys, I really want to see more of this fixer upper. I can hardly wait for the finished product. I like the way it's put together. Brook, you are the most capable woman I have ever seen. I love watching both you and Dave building. I hope there Is no asbestos in the cabin. Good luck. Ill be waiting for the next video.
watch the whole video
Beautious is one of my favorite words!
So fun watching this process!
Don't know the cost involved, but I am thinking a portable sawmill would be a great thing to have up there. Might recoup the coast. Rough-cut 2x4 is getting popular. You two are some of my heroes! Keep doing what you're doing. Thank You!
yes dave has a sawmill- wants to cut up the logs
Coming along awesome!!! Such a nice location!!! Roof looks so nice Brooke, love green!!! See ya in the next video!!! 🌲🏚️🌲
You guys are hard workers! Love watching your videos - thanks for sharing them.
So good to see a vodeo from you again. Another big remodel project. . Unbelievable how nice the roof is after all the fallen trees. 💖
