    You're a good Dad to take your kids out for an adventure like this. They're right at the age where they're going to retain a fare amount of what they see.

    We have some old barns and houses in the UK that are made from "cob" which is a mix of mud and chopped straw, some of them are over 500 years old.

      @charliemansonUK ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Our house in Cumbria when I was growing up in the 80's was cob built.
      Walls were 6 feet thick in places. The true age wasn't known but it was on maps from the 1600's.
      The neighbour behind had a whole farm dating from the same timescale, the barn was vaulted oak beams and a traditional long barn possibly up to 600 years old.
      They're still standing in a village called Moorhouse they were the last buildings on the left.

    Thanks for sharing some family time! It's very personal, and really very precious. Your kids are precious, only little once, and SO cute then. They grow up so fast on you. That looked like a old milk glass cold cream jar. Like a Pacquin's or Pond's jar, some people collect milk glass. Take care!

    * Silas you've gotten so good at making the vids ! Loved the opening music. You got some nice well mannered kids. You and the wife are good parents. Nice old barn. Yes people can be such as*holes ! No respect for anything. And it's just getting worse. Yes Crappy love the stumps. The lake I grew up on had a flooded bay we called stumpy cove. They damned our lake in like 1907 raising it's level flooding that mashy area. They dynamited the cedars to enlarge the lake resulting in all the stumps. Great Crappy and Bass fishing and no speed boats to chase the fish off . 👊😎👍
