  • In this video I set the pipe for my shallow well and build the floor for the cabin. Also a bear walked onto the property while I was working!

    Hi, I love watching your journey .I can still remember building my first home. i was 21 years old .then built my next house at 58 years old.I told my self never again building again.I think i lied to my self I'm getting ready to build again and im 60 years old.I swear this is my last build.And I cant wait to get started.just waiting to close on my last property.I am not a Carpenter by trade far from it.But ive learned alot on my other builds and what not.good luck in your Journey. 😊

    I don’t know if you have a firearm, and frankly it’s none of my business. But with bears roaming around and just you and your pup it’s good to have. You’re doing a great job and don’t fret if it takes you a few days longer than you first thought.

      Actually bear spray is more effective in protecting yourself from a bear when compared to a gun.

      The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom.
      That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

Even with concrete pads it still moves,but the mud and clay is no longer coming up through the floor very satisfying. I’m thinking you should have put gravel around that well pipe not sure if it will silt up your well pump ?

    I just came across your videos, so I don't know if you addressed this already in a prior video. But my question is once you have the off-grid cabin built and have moved into it, what do you imagine your lifestyle to be like? And how will you be supporting yourself financially? That would be an interesting video topic if you have not addressed it already.
