We didn’t have fiber optics internet until two years after we bought our property! Our driveway is a mile long but we have a pole about 1k feet from the house so they didn’t have to do much to hook us up. I love these videos and so happy you are taking us with you every single step of the way! New property is incredibly gorgeous!! I’m also happy to know to see you share the same experiences we had moving to a remote location in the mountains. We practically have the wildlife knocking on our front door. (Bears and lynxes included!) keep these videos coming!!
Thank you! Yeah the wildlife, and not the 'human' life is why we go broke being land poor! But well worth it! You can't put a price tag on that! Very cool to see bears and Lynx!!!! Congrats!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining us! I am chomping at the bit! But man soooooo much to do just to get the move down and the house cleaned up!! Hope to catch you again on the next episode! Have a good weekend!
Good to see you getting things beautified up. Be watchful out in the taller grass. I almost got 2 fawns last week with my brush hog. Front tractor tire almost got one of them..but I think it got out from under it just in time.
You are so kind, thank you! Would be nice if we could really grow our audience like some other homestead channels! We really strive to keep things real and make the best out of each day's challenges! I guess we believe there is no other way! Thanks
This morning I walked to open the gate and I thought I seen something out of the corner of my eye. As I walked back to the house I looked back again and there was a new baby fawn looking for it's mom. He was about 10 feet away and then turned and walked along the fence and pretty soon walked back towards the gate and then turned around went back down the hill along the fence and into the woods. I hope momma found it.
I have a GEO unit and I hate that POS! When I bought my house I found out that the 2000' of lines running through the yard had a leak so I replaced all the lines. I also replaced the pump with one that you can add water if for some reason it gets low. I had three hvac companies that were supposed to be experts with GEO look at it to get it dialed in and it never worked very good. told my neighbor that wa as hvac tech about it but he wasn't familiar with GEO but he came over and he hooked up his gauges and adjusted the refrigerant and it has worked perfect for 7 years.
Hate hearing that for you! I know the feeling! Ours is working better but we have air in the lines too! We need someone who knows what they are doing to install an air bleeder! But hopefully in due time we'll get it sorted out! At least it is working and the electric bill is not too bad! Thanks~!
@@KapperOutdoors2.0 I actually like the low electric bill when it's working right. I got rid of the sealed pump when I fixed the lines. They make a pump that has a lid that you can add water to. No need to call someone out you can do it yourself and it also purges the air out.
several nieghbor have the GEOthermal and they love them. 3,800 to 5,400 suqr foot homes.. we just got our high spped run a month ago. several of my land sub divides they ran for us and The few minior planed subdivisions they ran the lines into and set a pole or base for future hooks ups. The subs doing the work have been really good to work with. they will run 900 ft for free from a hub or pole. so make sure to tell them were your rooad starts to the sub divides you plan on doing. that should make your run shorter to the house.
thanks for the video kapper, been watching for years. You and Sharon got a great piece of ground there. I am back in wisconsin near algoma by Lake Michigan. Just got an e60 bobcat excavator for my 60 acres, keep on inspiring the rest of us, Ted
Good stuff! I miss the Algoma area from Salmon fishing!! But the news I hear from WI is not all that great!! Congrats on the E60 that is a great machine! Should serve you well for many years and many projects!! Thanks
My new property came with geothermal as well. For the past 2 months, keeping the house at meat locker temps, the electric bill has been $103 each month. Which is suspicious, I need to check with the power company to see if we're on some sort of equalization plan. Just this past week, they've been splicing fiber internet lines together at the junction boxes by the road. Hopefully, we can get the internet hooked up soon as well. It would be great if they ran a line down to your house.
Yeah I'm really hoping that we realize some monthly savings from a lower than IL power bill!! So far the homeowners is less, fuel is less, internet is less, so a lower power bill would be great! Good luck with getting fiber ran in! Looking forward to this one being done as there are a lot of possible obstacles. Thank you
Congrats on the new property. Been watching your videos and subscribed to your channel for over 5 years. Have you found a good way to trim trails on the side overhang? I have a koiti 35 and I love it. But researching something to trim the trails with it from the overhang limbs and briars that creep on your trails.
For the tractor, yes I had a sickly bar mower and Phil still uses one with his tractor. For me though with a mini ex I use that brush cutter. Thanks for joining us we appreciate everyone. Have a great weekend hope to hear from you again soon.
Well you can email me at Kapper@kapperoutdoors.com We are looking for specific kind of buyers who respect and appreciate how special this place is and can be! Thanks
I’m a new viewer, it’s way better than watching the political news. Did you ever mention or can you ballpark the price for the land if it’s not to personal.
Hey thanks for joining us! This farm was expensive!! Over 4k an acre not including the home! But it is a one of a kind and in the long run should prove to be a good investment. Thanks! Have a great weekend
Well... these grants started under Trump.. We got the same service trenched in on our IL home in 2017.. But either way its about time that 'rural' folks got a small piece of the pie!! Thanks
They should have caught all these issues during the home inspection.
Well that's a long story!! They actually did catch a lot!! But the sellers would not give anything!!!

Good video Mr K things moving in the right direction an ticked off the to do list 💪👌
It's been a very big 3 weeks lately! Lots moving in the right direction! Stay tuned and have a great weekend!
Great that the AC is blowing cold again!
Sure thing right there!! No tractor work without it in this heat!
We love our Geo unit.
I hope we will too!! Lets hope it is running OK now and the bills are smaller than our IL bills!!
You have a super nice farm .just found your channel and subscribed. Can't wait to see all you do with this place. Welcome to Missouri 🇺🇸
Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining us! I am chomping at the bit! But man soooooo much to do just to get the move down and the house cleaned up!! Hope to catch you again on the next episode! Have a good weekend!
Great to see that everything is starting to fall into place for you, enjoying the videos watching the progress
More to come! Thank you! It is a massive undertaking but we'll take one small success at a time! Thank you have a great weekend!
Good to see you getting things beautified up. Be watchful out in the taller grass. I almost got 2 fawns last week with my brush hog. Front tractor tire almost got one of them..but I think it got out from under it just in time.
Oh wow! That is why I don't bush hog during nesting season. They should be big enough by now to jump and run!
Good times watching your channels ❤

Yeah I hope momma found it too! Those little ones are sooo vulnerable!

Well it sounds like the run to the home for 'new service' should be covered! But either way it is a 'must have' investment for us!! Thanks
