Sorry you guys weren't feeling well. Seems like the kids bounced back really quick. Which is a reminder that their immune systems are working well. And getting out of the house was the right call. You'll get there, one step at a time. I think your family will be the better for this trial❤ You're all doing the best you can, and I'm glad to be privileged for the ride!
That's funny my dad did the same thing and gave up trying to find the water line ... He swore his grandpa could find water in the desert by dowsing ... I don't know it was fun to watch him , he made everything fun ... Just like you in this vlog keep it light keep it fun and keep moving forward . Peace ✌️
My father was a successful water dowser and did it for lots of folks as did his dad and I can do it too, but i don't do it except for my self as needed. Dad and Grandpa were dedicated conservative evangelical Christian men. I do not understand why it works but they could do it with peach or willow branches or with metal rods. My dad could tell how deep it was to strike water. And I saw the branches bend so hard it would break the branch.
The reason I believe that it works is because of the minerals in the water react woth the metal rods. Keeping it Dutch is building an off grid home and he has had a few different people douse his property and they have all been spot on. He is just waiting for the drilling company to get the pump going to start his building on his property! Check it out Somebody might have an xray type machine to check the ground.
Art, I homeschooled for 28 years and my husband never stayed home from work to take care of me when I was sick. That's a reality of life for most couples with children - parents usually have to tough it out when they are sick. Just because you are a nurse it doesn't mean you need to exclusively care for the sick, either. Don't feel selfish for working on that "To Do" list, you are actually helping Bri feel better, faster because she is heartened by seeing progress on the house. It's a few days after you videoed but I will still pray for your family's health and healing. (After all, God is outside of time so is there really such a thing as a prayer too late?)
Art our well was witched by an 86 year old man using both peach tree sticks and the wires. The well guy was amazed at the area he wanted us to dig. The well has 3 veins feeding it and was never successful at doing a fill time test because he couldn't get it cleaned out with water. We are beyond grateful for this technique. I believe what you discovered was a vein. I would imagine there are many with the mountains in your area. Bri, I hope you and the kids are feeling better soon.
It works for me. I like brass rods best, they helped me find the leak in the waterline, I can also find underground power. Of course, we call 811 for real but my marks are the same as theirs for the power line. You probably found an underground spring or a vein of water in the rock line, the excavator will find it! That might also be the water that is causing the mold in the house. Stand over the known source of water and you can follow the pipe. It will show you when you step away from it.

Praying for quick recovery for those ailing and no new ones sick. Can I just say I told my kids you guys would be some pretty awesome neighbors and friends to those God has blessed in your circle of people. And you are blessing those far away.
Our well went dry years ago. They drilled so many test holes and couldn’t find a good spot. They finally asked if we minded if they asked a douser to try it and BOOM, water. Not where they’d been looking, either.

Just watched you dish up breakfast and now I’m craving porridge (its 9.30pm here in UK). I just ate it with a little maple syrup and some raisins yummy x

Art, your water source up the hill is a spring, you said. Where there's one spring, there are usually several, but that doesn't mean they're all at the same depth. Water routes through the soil at the easiest path in all directions, even up and down. You can find other springs by looking for surface signs sometimes... deep green patches of grass, shrubs growing naturally in a row, actual damp spots, etc. Sometimes you can see it from above (drone footage or Google Earth). My grandpa dowsed for my parents' new well... that one was 372 feet below ground... and the river was closer than that. LOL 🤣
Dowsing is real that’s how my Mom and Dad found their well but I was always told that you had to know what you were doing they had a relative do theirs that had a lot of experience.... Good luck Art make progress everyday that’s all you need to worry about ♥️
I just absolutely love how you let your kids get in the middle of everything you guys do..just learning about everything and loving life. Your kids right there are going to be the most kind, loving, accepting adults. Keep up your journey no matter where it takes you. Peace, love, and light!
Praying Bri and children feel better soon and that you don't get sick. Hindsight is always 20/20, foresight more like 5/5 but you found the pipe eventually and tomorrow is another day. I'm sure you've heard the saying "we make plans and God laughs" so don't be hard on yourself. In his perfect time, everything will be done. I needed to hear and see this today since I've been putting off for 2 years the sorting, discarding, and finishing remodel projects to sell my home. It's almost too late since I used to be able to do a lot myself but not anymore. Your words at the beginning encouraged me to keep doing what I can, the rest I'll have to have help with but I need to do the clearing out first. It's a daunting job. ☺️💕🙏
Im so sorry you guys are sick prayers for speedy recovery don't be so hard on yourself things happen you just got to go with the flow and pick up later. Sending much love to your family.
A set of goals are something you work towards. If you don't make your goal adjust your expectations or double the effort! Don't see missing your goals as failure but an opportunity for reflection.
I am praying that you all accomplish your goals and finish your house soon so you all can be comfortable. Art you are a good father and a provider and you are doing a great job, Bri you are a good mom taking care of your kids even though you are sick ( moms are the best) and your kids are all adorable they have their own personality and thats what makes them super specially. God Bless you all. love from Canada
Look at keeping It Dutch videos! He’s had someone witching on his off grid property and they’re coming to dig his well in the place they found, might get some info on it, good luck
I love this! My dad did this to find the septic field when my husband and I had a septic issue....saved us a lot of money because we were able to do all the work ourselves instead of calling a plumber.
Dowsing is interesting. My grandma dowses and my dad is a well driller. I’ve walked with her using a dowsing stick (she uses a crotch branch from a fruit bearing tree) and with her hands around mine the sticks has turned (no matter how tight you hold it). That being said my dad drilled on dowsed spots for 20 years and now undowsed for the last 20 years and the percentage of wells with water verses dry wells has always been about the same.
And what a wonderful job you would do he could be anything and he knows it too because they're always reminding him God bless y'all y'all have a wonderful family I hope you know that everyone is smiling that knows God cuz they all know what a wonderful parents you are
Water witching is real I have done it, learned it from my dad who has 4 of the best wells on the mountain where they live, even in severe droughts he always has plenty of water.
In 2001 we hired a professional dowser in your county. It worked for selecting the place to Drill our well. He also taught me how to dows. It feels weird but you can really feel the draw or magnetics of the water. Whatever causes it... It really works!😊❤🙏💧💧💧
Sorry your sick Bri hope you feel better tomorrow. Great work Art at least you will have a better start tomorrow picking up from where you left off today xxx
I think you guys are doing amazing and hitting as many goals as you can in a day. Please keep on keeping on. You will reach your goal! I'm a number 1 cheerleader of you all!!❤️❤️
Just keep moving forward. It doesn't all have to be done in a day. Don't give yourself too hard a time. Life gets in the way and we have to learn how to do what we can do when we can do it. You figured it out, the kids are happy and Bri is mending. Celebrate your successes, no matter how small you perceive them to be - they are still successes. Yesterday is done and cannot be changed, tomorrow will have it's own challenges and blessings. Today you did and that is what matters.
I love your introduction to all your videos. You both are so persistent on your goals so don’t be discouraged when you feel behind. Life happens, great job. Be proud of yourselves. 🌻
Sorry some got sick. I enjoyed seeing Joyful in this vid, as she is not always around. Love seeing all the kiddos. That Wilder really seems to want his own TH-cam channel. lol
The most amazing thing is watching you and your family doing things. So entertaining. My children are grown now so it helps me see your family. It’s wonderful to see family and togetherness doing things. I love it. Thanks.
This video is reality- we all have tough choices to make everyday. What I heard Bri say was that even tho she feels rotten, she recognizes how important your making progress on the house is to you and to Bri. All we can do is our best everyday (which we all know is contingent on each days unique situation. As I said before, if you don’t even try, you’ll get nothing done. If you start something and you get called away you will still have accomplished something. Keep up the good work- and recognize it IS good work. Blessings. Ok, now I’m gonna yell at you! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF, AND GOD DOESNT WANT THAT FOR YOU. GIVE YOURSELF GRACE ( unmerited favor, not your daughter!). You made decisions based on the info in front of you, that’s the best any of us can do. (Btw, I don’t know anything about dousing, but you may have been identifying water, just not your water line). Finally, you did accomplish stuff today, even if It wasn’t what you wanted to. What’s the saying? If you want to make God laugh, make a list. ( which presumably didn’t include His direction). I’m not getting angry at you, I know from my experience that if you keep expecting the extraordinary from yourself ( that isn’t direction from God) He’s gonna have to get your attention and that mostly isn’t any fun. So, have you asked God to go before you in this endeavor, do you ask Him to set your to do list daily, to give you the discernment and discipline you need to finish this job....IN HIS TIME? I’m sure I’m not the only person who is praying for y’all on a daily basis. You can do this. blessings
LINDA kurtz, wow wow , so well said.You put into words , so beautifully what l want to say. Please Please read this ART, and write it on your Wall, this is exactly what you need.
You are a hoot, Arthur. How are you supposed to know the future? You work so hard. And you stay so calm. I'm not so nice when I get frustrated. You're a good example for me.
Don’t care what you get done as long as you do it with your family. Wilder is so cute. They all are and before you know it you will be a grandpa and grandma and wonder where the time went. Trust in God it will all come together. Cherish what you have.
Every step you make forward is progress. Some days the accomplishments will be very visible, others will be small. But, both are necessary. I love you make monthly, weekly goals, and daily goals. I do a daily list which is bigger than the day allows. But, to cross off a task keeps me motivated. Keep up with it, and one day you will look back seeing all the little steps you made came together. God Bless!
I send wellness prayers to you. And you just showed what honsteading is. Sometimes we find our water lines right away and sometimes we dig a lot of holes. Beleave in yourself.
I know you're not supposed to pick favorites, and all of your kids take turns being my fav, but Wilder is probably my favorite most frequently. It could also just be whichever child in on the screen atm🤣 but his vlogging is adorable!🥰
I'd like to share a perspective on "goal setting," if you focus on "setting the intention, then proceed in taking action, step by step, your experience becomes filled with less judgement and expectation and more present awareness. Are we seeking joy and peace within the experience of doing, or are we driven by pushing ourselves too hard, with stress? Embrace your moment, become fully conscious of your experience and the results will come with more ease and peace.
If you are all sick. Then you have to listen to your own body’s needs. Please feel free to lie where you want, for as long as you need the to care your delves. All my love, Ellen. From Queensland, Australia.
I hope you keep up your strength, long construction projects are tiring when you have so many other responsibilities, especially when they last for six or more months, you are just ready for the project to be over before winter... Sending a prayer your families direction. Keep the faith.
I used to use them all the time when I buried phone cable. I was taught that it works because of a disruption in the earth's magnetic field. Copper or brass rods work the best. I could find power cables or water lines and tell you how deep they were and it was fairly accurate. Always dig at the source first. At the beginning of the video you pointed exactly which way that water line went and 5 minutes later you were second guessing yourself. Oh well you got some exercise and now you know.
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me!
@Nova Terrance Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
You should hire a Project manager for the house and offer yourself as labor. There are people who do this for a living for a reason and learning to delegate is a key to success.
@@gladysanderson1351 I'm not trying to be a smart alec; a project manager knows how to move the logistics of a build along they would make sure you have the right amount of materials on-site when you need them and they schedule any inspections and make sure different subs aren't working over each other. It's a real art and it is worth paying for because it would translate into tons of time and frustration saved.
I'm so excited for Bri to have her house back. My heart broke for her when she found out that rental house down the road wasn't going to work out. Your progress is a beacon of hope for her, I think.
Proud of you for moving things forward. And you did. How about mapping what you find out and know for certain to be the lines on the property for your kid's kids to have one day Maybe such a cartography project, marking the property lines and permanent landmarks, which lines run which routes, etc. would make a fantastic homeschool exercise for the older kids to do with you.
Why aren’t you hiring someone to help you? You are an amazing man Art, but one man. We can’t imagine the pressure you are under. Please consider getting someone to help. There are so many people still out of work that would help you.
I wish you could have heard me shouting at you.. START WHERE YOU KNOW THERE IS A WATER LINE AND FOLLOW IT! But alas... you didn't. Oh well, every failure is a learning opportunity, right? Keep up the good work. You are making progress.
Sorry you guys weren't feeling well. Seems like the kids bounced back really quick. Which is a reminder that their immune systems are working well. And getting out of the house was the right call. You'll get there, one step at a time. I think your family will be
the better for this trial❤

I was told by my grandfather and father to use willow branches. Never tried it myself but my nephew swears by it.
My father was a successful water dowser and did it for lots of folks as did his dad and I can do it too, but i don't do it except for my self as needed. Dad and Grandpa were dedicated conservative evangelical Christian men. I do not understand why it works but they could do it with peach or willow branches or with metal rods. My dad could tell how deep it was to strike water. And I saw the branches bend so hard it would break the branch.
The reason I believe that it works is because of the minerals in the water react woth the metal rods.

I used a wood rod that I carved from a branch and it worked great :-)
The high humid climate and an old house built w/o a vapor barrier between ground and floors cause the moisture and mold.

Exactly what I thought 💭 lol 😂
I thought that too.

It’s a good lesson, for many areas of life. Always start at the source.

Look at keeping It Dutch videos! He’s had someone witching on his off grid property and they’re coming to dig his well in the place they found, might get some info on it, good luck
Are you asking for a water line or a water source. There’s a difference.
Yes indeed. There may be a natural water source

The rods do not discriminate to the seekers desires. He found something, just not what he was looking for
Fun video: one of my favorites!! Hope everyone is feeling much better tomorrow!!
I love this! My dad did this to find the septic field when my husband and I had a septic issue....saved us a lot of money because we were able to do all the work ourselves instead of calling a plumber.

It was really interesting watching you look for the water line, but I kept telling you "out loud" to just dig from the valve...lol..
DOWSING i did with a peach limb the limb would pull to the ground and when they dug the well it produce 10 gallons per minute
And what a wonderful job you would do he could be anything and he knows it too because they're always reminding him God bless y'all y'all have a wonderful family I hope you know that everyone is smiling that knows God cuz they all know what a wonderful parents you are

LINDA kurtz, wow wow , so well said.You put into words , so beautifully what l want to say. Please Please read this ART, and write it on your Wall, this is exactly what you need.
Well said!
AMEN!!!
Enter into the REST of God. Clue...He said it is FINISHED
You are a hoot, Arthur. How are you supposed to know the future? You work so hard. And you stay so calm. I'm not so nice when I get frustrated. You're a good example for me.
I hope you feel better fast Bri and all the sick babies. I hope everyone else stays healthy.
Good job taking care of the homestead and family Art!
Don’t care what you get done as long as you do it with your family. Wilder is so cute. They all are and before you know it you will be a grandpa and grandma and wonder where the time went. Trust in God it will all come together. Cherish what you have.
Every step you make forward is progress. Some days the accomplishments will be very visible, others will be small. But, both are necessary. I love you make monthly, weekly goals, and daily goals. I do a daily list which is bigger than the day allows. But, to cross off a task keeps me motivated. Keep up with it, and one day you will look back seeing all the little steps you made came together. God Bless!
I send wellness prayers to you. And you just showed what honsteading is. Sometimes we find our water lines right away and sometimes we dig a lot of holes. Beleave in yourself.
Can you go to the other end of the pipe and place a 250ft fishtape and borrow a line locator just a thought enjoyed the video
when i was younger and yes we lived on a farm that is how my dad found water and put the well so
it does work
I know you're not supposed to pick favorites, and all of your kids take turns being my fav, but Wilder is probably my favorite most frequently. It could also just be whichever child in on the screen atm🤣 but his vlogging is adorable!🥰
I'd like to share a perspective on "goal setting," if you focus on "setting the intention, then proceed in taking action, step by step, your experience becomes filled with less judgement and expectation and more present awareness. Are we seeking joy and peace within the experience of doing, or are we driven by pushing ourselves too hard, with stress?
Embrace your moment, become fully conscious of your experience and the results will come with more ease and peace.
You guys are great at storytelling with these daily vlogs. I love that you are willing to be so different from all the other homesteaders.
Art, so glad you are setting goals even if you don't meet them "on time", you are headed in the right direction.
Psst, you have a great manager!
Hope everyone is feeling better. Keep working towards your goal. Don't be discouraged. We are rooting for you!
A wonderful ancient way of detecting water which is still used in the UK. Much love and happy dowsing.
If you are all sick. Then you have to listen to your own body’s needs. Please feel free to lie where you want, for as long as you need the to care your delves. All my love, Ellen. From Queensland, Australia.
I just love your little family! Warms my heart!❤️ hope y’all get to feeling better!
I hope you keep up your strength, long construction projects are tiring when you have so many other responsibilities, especially when they last for six or more months, you are just ready for the project to be over before winter... Sending a prayer your families direction. Keep the faith.
I used to use them all the time when I buried phone cable. I was taught that it works because of a disruption in the earth's magnetic field. Copper or brass rods work the best. I could find power cables or water lines and tell you how deep they were and it was fairly accurate. Always dig at the source first. At the beginning of the video you pointed exactly which way that water line went and 5 minutes later you were second guessing yourself. Oh well you got some exercise and now you know.
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me!
@Matthew Dakota instablaster =)
@Nova Terrance Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Nova Terrance it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
@Matthew Dakota Glad I could help :D
Writing before i see the results. My maternal Grandpa taught me how to witch. It's strange and I don't know why it works but it does.
Live and learn, dig and discover. Love you guys!
You should hire a Project manager for the house and offer yourself as labor. There are people who do this for a living for a reason and learning to delegate is a key to success.
interesting idea. I hadn't heard of that method before.
That’s my thoughts. Keeps you focused.
@@gladysanderson1351 I'm not trying to be a smart alec; a project manager knows how to move the logistics of a build along they would make sure you have the right amount of materials on-site when you need them and they schedule any inspections and make sure different subs aren't working over each other. It's a real art and it is worth paying for because it would translate into tons of time and frustration saved.
I'm so excited for Bri to have her house back. My heart broke for her when she found out that rental house down the road wasn't going to work out. Your progress is a beacon of hope for her, I think.
Proud of you for moving things forward. And you did.
How about mapping what you find out and know for certain to be the lines on the property for your kid's kids to have one day
Maybe such a cartography project, marking the property lines and permanent landmarks, which lines run which routes, etc. would make a fantastic homeschool exercise for the older kids to do with you.
I use a coat hanger and I m good at it they work great
Wishing your family a fast recovery.
I was rooting for you to find the water lines dowsing, even though I lie firmly in the skeptical camp
Why aren’t you hiring someone to help you? You are an amazing man Art, but one man. We can’t imagine the pressure you are under. Please consider getting someone to help. There are so many people still out of work that would help you.
Maybe he can't afford to hire someone to help, which is probably why he is putting in sweat equity himself.
Thats a really cute dress Brianna, where is it from/what brand is it?
I can't wait for the video on the day you guys get back in your house.
You can hire a machine that water companies use that can “hear” moving water so you run a tap and find the water line.
I hope your family are all better soon. Thanks for the video. God loves you and your family. God bless you all.
All the kids are so adorable and your a great dad blessing
Keeping It Dutch has had three people come out to witch his new property for a well. I’m excitedly waiting for the drill to see how they did.
You cant imagine how your “simple failure” was so inspirational for me. God works in mysterious ways. Keep on !!
Pretty sure your youngest would like to do the vlog for you. 🙂

I wish you could have heard me shouting at you.. START WHERE YOU KNOW THERE IS A WATER LINE AND FOLLOW IT! But alas... you didn't. Oh well, every failure is a learning opportunity, right? Keep up the good work. You are making progress.
