Hi you guys hired someone today hope you guys are doing a great job keep up the good work I hope the animals are going to get out there hope that solas health things working good you know that's takes time hope you guys got that done really good still takes time to get things done like it's supposed to be all right guys have a great day and God bless you guys 😻💰💙😄😀😍🌴🏠🌹🌹❤️🌳🌺🥀🏡🏡💯🌵
I watched your video on Girl in the Woods. I was already a subscriber to your channel but I hope the mention on hers increases your subscribers. Good video today. 🙂
Thanks Timmy.....that would be great. We need a little help.....things have been slow lately so we need a kick in the butt, lol. Appreciate your support my friend
Don’t give up on your idea about a well up by the cabin. Low lying land does not always mean you’re closer to water. There’s a lot of water at the tops of mountains and hills. Give me a call if you have any questions. Thanks for the tour
IMO... The entry to stop snow and mud from entering the cabin then the water system because of the bliss of running water. Your lives will be easier with those and make the rest of the projects easier too! Love from Texas.
Jay, your gutters will freeze and the ice will backup into the gutters. My solution was to use the vinnal gutters and down spouts where at the ends of the gutters, I could pop the end-caps off and the ice wouldn't back up. Also, the downspouts would need to be kept about 2 feet off the ground so that any ice water would run off instead of freezing.
Ya the winter will be rough. Hoping to have enough water stored before the freeze comes. Then maybe just supplement it through the winter Here or there. 🤷♂️
You two must have ended this video, looked at each other and simultaneously said ‘oh, my god - did we just tell everyone we were going to do all this?!’ Yes, you did and we are all really excited to follow along with your projects! I’m voting for a 2 to 1 ratio, 2 practical projects, 1 fun/relaxing project, rinse and repeat.
BIG water catchment holding tank at the pole barn can function as your pressurized water source for your future forever house down at camp. Make that elevation difference work in your favor.
Really Really Like that idea buddy....thanks for your support and going back and watching all these videos.....Sorry I have been slacking on responding to them. I saw them all but have been playing catch up, since we just got back from Vacation. Big Woot Woot to ya my friend.
change the window to a sliding glass door off the bedroom leading to the hottub!!,, woohooo!!! way to go Jay and Jen!!, ty for sharing!! see ya next time!!
I would so love to see a roof over your wooden siding plus clear roofing over your windows to keep the sunlight in your house plus enjoying outside seating so much more .
Hey Alison.....I think that would be nice too, there are too many benefits to ignore with covering the side deck. Thanks for helping us make good decisions. 😊
If you have two front doors it will keep your cabin much warmer here in the UK we do it because heating with gas is very expensive and older home have little or no insulation great project
An arctic entry sounds awesome. Save those inside floors. Lol love the hot tub, the root cellar. Homestead Rescue has several root cellar/ greenhouse ideas. Your place is looking very comfortable. I'd do a hot tub first. It's important to give yourself a treat when a hard day is done. You two are amazing.
That is a big and impressive list!! Love the sounds of everything, but I would definitely get started on the hot tub pro-ject as the ‘fun’ one because it can be a great retreat at the end of your work days on the ‘need to do’ stuff on the list. Or early mornings!
When I watched the video I realized how hefty the list was as well, lol. I agree Michy, it would make Jen happy too start with the hot tub as well, so think that is a good place to start. Thanks for watching and the support, it means a lot. Best wishes
Good idea with the cutting into hill with green house... as that mass earth area can be used for maintaining the temperatures as well as other things. ... Sounds like fun ... all the goals... An idea before you close up the sides of the cabin... I would put in a good number of pier blocks ... inside and outer walls every four feet or such ... and then cut a custom length of a 6x6 or 8x8 block of wood and add extra support... if the hill, cold thaw and so on or the wood posts rot (they will) the blocks will help to keep the place in place. Having some black 55 gallon drums along one edge of the greenhouse wall ... with water and heated by sunlight will help for next winter some.
I seriously love all those ideas buddy. I have considered running all new beams perpendicular to the originals with new blocks like you mentioned, but so far the posts are doing good....so we will see. Be smart to resupport before closing it in.
Wow lots of projects. When you look for were to put the root caller keep in mind you have lots of sand that likes to cave in. But if you can find a shelter she'l to did in to or a dyi shelter. But it looks like a busy summer. But all great ideas.
Brooke from Girl in the Woods introduced me to your channel and cabin build. Such a wonderful cabin and amazing work you have done in such a short time. Loving your videos and look forward to your projects this year.
AMBITIOUS ...lots of work....but sounds like lots of fun.......ooh a hot tub under a gazebo.....imagine relaxing after working on projects all day........thats a perfect day for me!! cheers from canada
It's going to be an exciting year for you two with your plans and all I have to say is "GO FOR IT"!!! Years ago I bought a 6 person hot tub and put it inside a family room in the basement and I did this for 3 boys where were in sports year around and it helped their muscles, etc. Never had a problem with moisture because we had an industrial fan that ran when the cover was off the spa and it worked out well for the boys' aches and pains from football for sure. FIRST WATER, then Green House and then SPA!!! YIPPEEEEE!!!
You guys have accomplished a lot this year! And so much more on the agenda. Do you get a lot of mosquitos there in summer? I heard that mosquitos can transmit heartworm to dogs, so If you can't plant in the ground try planting several containers of rosemary, basil and lemon grass (citronella plant). I'm in SE Mich and those plants really do help repel mosquitos.
The first two years Here were horrible with mosquitoes....but the last two years not as bad. I think they got killed off a bit with late freeze ups.....so hoping for the same this year. Thanks for the tips on plants 😄
@AC Grant so glad to hear it. We feel bad we have been dragging out the bathroom project.....we would love to be done with it too. Just life pushed us another direction for a bit. Best wishes my friend
We want to see some bombshell jumps from the bedroom addition roof direct in the hot tub!😁 Root cellar is a very good idea. In sweden near to everybody has one. Good for storing your vegetable harvest.
Ha ha, that would be a quick way to empty the hot tub, lol. I want a root cellar pretty bad.....hope I can find a good strong, affordable way to build one
Olympic makes a great stain we put on our cedar sided cabin in South Carolina. Olympic Elite is a stain and sealant in one. Makes a cabin look pretty cool.
I think it was during one of the lives I asked about a bunch of these things, and, understandably, you have been way too busy so far to do any extras. I am so happy for you that you are looking forward to some fun (useful!) stuff. Wishing you a ton of luck on the well project!! If you are interested in the pizza oven I have (self contained and runs on wood, baby!) let me know and i will email it to you. Thanks for the great content!!!! hugs from Colorado
Enjoying your videos! I live in a 400 square ft. cabin and have been working on it for 4 years now! I am lucky I have gravity water. You can have it also. Watch Doug & Stacy homesteading, they will show you how they do it using run off water from their roofs. I love watching off griders on their journey!I just bought a green house which will be hooked on to my cabin, may I suggest building that first because of the cost of food and if it will be available?? I have loads to do here,so I guess we are going to be busy this summer lol God Bless
I like the idea of Gravity water....Maybe we can put a small tank in the loft to give us full time pressure even without power. Thanks Darlene. We would like to start that green house too.
Wow you two are going to be very busy 🐝 this year, I hope that book Jen is holding isn’t full of to do projects lol, at the end it’s going to be an absolutely amazing little piece of paradise no matter what the weather is, oooh a hot tub that sounds perfect 👍🏻, I’m really looking forward to coming along with you guys as you get through the list, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
Awesome Idea, I think you could put outdoor carpet on the porch when you finish it, that way you would have some green area and also when you come out of the house you would not have to put on shoes to relax after a long work day.
You %us should be so proud Made your list for spring thru fall . Lot of good things .I will be right there watching and enjoying for sure. Love you guys . Just stay safe and don't overdo
Its great we plan to do 10years worth of work each year aswell! You certainly cant do anything without plans, thinking it through and gathering some deals on materials! Good luck and I look forward to all you build just be careful on the ladders!
HA....I was noticing how many things are on the list as well....but not until I watched the whole video, LOL. Only thing keeping me confident is that we had a LONG list last year and we completed most of it too. SO here is to ambitious thoughts, HA HA. Fewer ladder projects this year i hope, LOL. Thanks for being here
First off my friends and most important so glad to see the snowman is still with us whew..Water water water that’s great project. Solar project Greenhouse so much to accomplish and guess what I so believe in you both . I now realize the Hot Tub is happening without a doubt Hey No window jumping Look forward to the videos. That’s easy Hot Tub. Once again May Peace Health and Happiness follow you and yours
I would build a food cellar for food and safety aspect first. I have put cedar wood chips around my cabin, helps keep the bugs down and also smell good that my 2 cents.
Man I can’t wait for you guys to get started on all the projects!! Jay don’t spend more money on solar. Get a stationary bike, a generator and Jen to pedal!! 😂 😂 Hot tub, definitely the hot tub first!!
Hi Jay and Jenn... your plans sound so awesome.. Hi Timber and Scout.. I can't wait to see all your projects come true.. You could check Home Rescue for Ideas for Root cellar. Just a thought you could put the saw mill on the lean tube of the pole barn.
Hi Jay and Jen wow do your ears pop going up the hill? 😉 That's a lot higher than I thought. This is the first time I could tell just how high you guys are. Good luck with future projects. We'll be watching🥰
If and when you do the wood boiler for the hot tub, I would make a run to heat the water storage area as well because evidently it will still freeze on those coldest nights or weeks. We go through a period of cold spell winters and then it flips to warn and not much snow even. A nice thing about that hot tub being close to the shanty is being able to go out a window or small door and into the tub as we were "born" ... a au natural puddle if your so inclined as I would be out where privacy isn't a issue. And when ya do get caught, just adds to the funny stories after it all. Take care kids, winter should be done by june
Lots of fun projects to watch for now!! I remember commenting on one of your videos when you may have finished the siding that now all you need is a hot tub LOL I think you should do that first so then after all the other projects get worked on you have a place to go and relax....right?
Love all your up & coming project ideas!!! Got our wheels spinning too!! The Shabin’ is definitely calling!!! Can’t wait to get back up. Hope you both had a fun vacation!!
Greenhouse in the side of the hill will be great, if you build the retaining walls out of stone/block work it will extend the growing season. Also raised beds will help you with your growing season ☺️ good luck for the new projects this year
Looking forward to all the upcoming projects. I'd focus on the garden and green house first and then everything else while watching your garden growing throughout the summer.
Hello you guys, glad to see everything is coming together and you have a plan going forward. It's quite a list but you have to start somewhere and water, garden, solar.. must have.. looking forward to seeing it in action.
They are all great ideas ! We used to have a hottub and loved it in the winter being in the warm water and the snow misting your face. Anxious to see your plans to make your cabin even better !
Im excited to see the soffits and the gutters and then whatever other projects you have, i love your videos and i think building a porch on the front would be great xx
Jay, you should make a 4 foot by 6 foot cold coat closet at your main door entry so that you have a cold break between the outside and inside.
That would be awesome......all around
Hi you guys hired someone today hope you guys are doing a great job keep up the good work I hope the animals are going to get out there hope that solas health things working good you know that's takes time hope you guys got that done really good still takes time to get things done like it's supposed to be all right guys have a great day and God bless you guys 😻💰💙😄😀😍🌴🏠🌹🌹❤️🌳🌺🥀🏡🏡💯🌵
Thank you so much my friend ❤️
Congrats for being featured on Girl In The Woods!!!
Thanks Robin.....we feel honored
I watched your video on Girl in the Woods. I was already a subscriber to your channel but I hope the mention on hers increases your subscribers. Good video today. 🙂
Thanks Timmy.....that would be great. We need a little help.....things have been slow lately so we need a kick in the butt, lol. Appreciate your support my friend
Man!!! I got tired just listening to all this work. Had to go take a nap!!! :)
Lol

Cool buddy.......I'll take any help I can get. Be chatting with ya soon. 👍
IMO... The entry to stop snow and mud from entering the cabin then the water system because of the bliss of running water. Your lives will be easier with those and make the rest of the projects easier too! Love from Texas.
Can't argue with that, 😊😊😊😉
In my opinion Always do the things that protect the things that you've got. And the things that make your life easier.. Necessities first.
😊👍
Jay, your gutters will freeze and the ice will backup into the gutters. My solution was to use the vinnal gutters and down spouts where at the ends of the gutters, I could pop the end-caps off and the ice wouldn't back up. Also, the downspouts would need to be kept about 2 feet off the ground so that any ice water would run off instead of freezing.
They have a metal roof. No gutter stands a chance once the snow slides.
Ya the winter will be rough. Hoping to have enough water stored before the freeze comes. Then maybe just supplement it through the winter Here or there. 🤷♂️
Will try installing gutters lower so the snow slides miss them
Looking forward to all the new projects for 2023!!
😊👍
You two must have ended this video, looked at each other and simultaneously said ‘oh, my god - did we just tell everyone we were going to do all this?!’ Yes, you did and we are all really excited to follow along with your projects! I’m voting for a 2 to 1 ratio, 2 practical projects, 1 fun/relaxing project, rinse and repeat.
Ya the more we look at the list, we are questioning our sanity. Ha ha. I like that ratio
BIG water catchment holding tank at the pole barn can function as your pressurized water source for your future forever house down at camp. Make that elevation difference work in your favor.

So Happy to hear this Kim....Thank you for coming over and Joining us. We try and have fun here so happy to have ya. Best wishes and Welcome
That is a lot of good ideas, awesome. Can't wait to see it all done. Water in a must.
So true......hope you are well my friend
AMBITIOUS ...lots of work....but sounds like lots of fun.......ooh a hot tub under a gazebo.....imagine relaxing after working on projects all day........thats a perfect day for me!! cheers from canada
Will be sooooooo nice 👍
Maybe start with fixing the little gravel walkway to the door...put a cover over the door and the porch on the side of the deck to join the front deck
I'm thinking we will end up doing that 😊. Hope you are doing good my friend. Sending our love
A covered entrance would be great and cover that deck area on the side would be nice also!!! Should keep you busy for the summer!
Agree
It's going to be an exciting year for you two with your plans and all I have to say is "GO FOR IT"!!!

Can't Beat a good hot tub soak right? 😊👍 thanks Sandra for all the support.
Wow, that's quite the list. Looking forward to the journey!
Thanks TC
Lot’s of plan hoping you accomplish all of them. Jen, a hot tub will be awesome! 😃
Solid goals! Plenty to do! I love the greenhouse idea on the side of the hill. In the meantime, you may consider a hoophouse near the carport. Cheers!
Great ideas look forward to watching along ☺️
Yay! Thank you!
I would put a covered porch on the cabin. Think of sitting out there with a coffee watching the rain on a nice summer evening.
Ya I'm feeling it will be added to the list of things to do. There are to many benefits to ignore, lol
You guys have accomplished a lot this year! And so much more on the agenda. Do you get a lot of mosquitos there in summer?

Thanks Pat
Yes, to staining the cabin. Every thing else sounds great. Go Jen & the hot tub!
Woot woot Heather. 😊👍
Cover for the Porch and cover for side door
Priority 1-finish the indoor bathroom. 😁
Lol......I was waiting for that, ha ha
@@OffgridwithJayandJen I really love watching your projects!!
@AC Grant so glad to hear it. We feel bad we have been dragging out the bathroom project.....we would love to be done with it too. Just life pushed us another direction for a bit. Best wishes my friend
I think a sunroom/greenhouse on the deck would be nice and still have plenty of sunlight through the windows.
Would kill two birds with one stone too.....might work. 👍
So cool. At about 340 in the video you can see some deer run by in the background. Awesomeness
😊👍
We want to see some bombshell jumps from the bedroom addition roof direct in the hot tub!😁 Root cellar is a very good idea. In sweden near to everybody has one. Good for storing your vegetable harvest.
Ha ha, that would be a quick way to empty the hot tub, lol. I want a root cellar pretty bad.....hope I can find a good strong, affordable way to build one

YOU COULD HAVE A ROOF ON THE SIDE OF THE CABIN AND USE POLYCARBON AND HAVE GOOD LIGHT.
That is a good idea, might have to check into how strong it is and consider it. Thanks

Ha....that little book has the next decade planned. LOL
Getting the entryway done would be the most beneficial I would think but cold storage or cellar would be something to do right away I would think
I think so too
It all sounds good guys. Take care and be well.
Awesome Idea, I think you could put outdoor carpet on the porch when you finish it, that way you would have some green area and also when you come out of the house you would not have to put on shoes to relax after a long work day.
That's a great idea!
I shared your videos on Facebook Publicly
Sweet.....you are awesome buddy. Pressure is on now
You %us should be so proud
Made your list for spring thru fall . Lot of good things .I will be right there watching and enjoying for sure. Love you guys . Just stay safe and don't overdo
Thanks Sheila.....lots of love
Can wait for those fun projects.
You both have done so much wonderful things around your house and it looks beautiful keep warm outthere Rosa
Thank you my friend. Hope you are doing well
Y'all will definitely have a lot to do this year, let alone the incidental things that come up!? Oh, like maple 🍁 syrup! Little by little, JB. 🐕🐕😉
Good point my friend.....I need to make some time for fishing too. Lol
Its great we plan to do 10years worth of work each year aswell! You certainly cant do anything without plans, thinking it through and gathering some deals on materials! Good luck and I look forward to all you build just be careful on the ladders!
HA....I was noticing how many things are on the list as well....but not until I watched the whole video, LOL. Only thing keeping me confident is that we had a LONG list last year and we completed most of it too. SO here is to ambitious thoughts, HA HA. Fewer ladder projects this year i hope, LOL. Thanks for being here
I am looking forward to you building the cover for the Wood mill and wood fired hot tub which are also my goals for this year!
Sweet.......good goals to have. Best wishes BFB
Welcome back from the Sunny South. A much needed vacation
Oh man buddy.....we are recharged and ready to hit things hard.
Digging the positive vibes guys!! Florida must have been good to you 😊. looking forward to joining you on the continued journey. 👍🏻
Woot woot to that 😊👍
Finishing the pole barn would be a priority.
I think I got just the right stuff to do that, 😊👍
Lots of great ideas. I look forward to seeing you doing it. We are about to start extending a old house in the west coast of Ireland 💚🍺
So glad to hear that Margaret. Good luck with your new project 👍
How about a potting shed for your greenhouse. To store your gardening tools.
So important....smart
First off my friends and most important so glad to see the snowman is still with us whew..Water water water that’s great project. Solar project Greenhouse so much to accomplish and guess what I so believe in you both . I now realize the Hot Tub is happening without a doubt Hey No window jumping Look forward to the videos. That’s easy Hot Tub. Once again May Peace Health and Happiness follow you and yours
Big smiles my friend.....thank you for being here
I would build a food cellar for food and safety aspect first. I have put cedar wood chips around my cabin, helps keep the bugs down and also smell good that my 2 cents.
Ya this year we are going to work more on the homesteading and prepared type stuff. Only makes sense right??
Man I can’t wait for you guys to get started on all the projects!! Jay don’t spend more money on solar. Get a stationary bike, a generator and Jen to pedal!! 😂 😂 Hot tub, definitely the hot tub first!!
Lol, I think Jen might not like that idea, ha ha.
May the Lord bless and protect you and Jen
😊😊😊❤️
Definitely the front door project
😊👍
Hahahahahahahahahaha!! love the replays of Timber running into the door 😂🤣
lol, You know I thought I would get a few more comments about that......I knew I could count on you for appreciating it 😉
Lots of nice things to come. 👍👍😊
Can't wait!
All sounds so great, especially the hot tub ❤️
Woot woot....thanks Deb
Hi Jay and Jenn... your plans sound so awesome.. Hi Timber and Scout.. I can't wait to see all your projects come true.. You could check Home Rescue for Ideas for Root cellar. Just a thought you could put the saw mill on the lean tube of the pole barn.
Will have to check that out. Thanks NL.....we will try to work smart for sure. Thanks
Jay, be sure to put at least a 1 inch drop for every 10 foot of gutter run so that the water will run off quickly and not backup and then freeze.
Thanks John
Side porch great stop for outside kitchen
Also a great point
Hi Jay and Jen wow do your ears pop going up the hill? 😉 That's a lot higher than I thought. This is the first time I could tell just how high you guys are. Good luck with future projects. We'll be watching🥰
It is hard to show in the videos...it is steep roads getting to the cabin.
If and when you do the wood boiler for the hot tub, I would make a run to heat the water storage area as well because evidently it will still freeze on those coldest nights or weeks. We go through a period of cold spell winters and then it flips to warn and not much snow even. A nice thing about that hot tub being close to the shanty is being able to go out a window or small door and into the tub as we were "born" ... a au natural puddle if your so inclined as I would be out where privacy isn't a issue. And when ya do get caught, just adds to the funny stories after it all. Take care kids, winter should be done by june
Thanks my friend......will be sure to include the waterstorage tank as well.....smart.
Front entry room!
😊👍
Ambitious summer plans! Can't wait to see it take shape.
the mud room or as you called it a covered shoe area
Lol.....ya we are both dorks. 😁
Hot tub! Good idea!❤
Great ideas, I look forward to seeing the progress! I love your videos!
Thanks JL.....lots of love
Lots of fun projects to watch for now!! I remember commenting on one of your videos when you may have finished the siding that now all you need is a hot tub LOL I think you should do that first so then after all the other projects get worked on you have a place to go and relax....right?
We can't argue with you when you are right. Lol
@@OffgridwithJayandJen lol
Will be watching the projects.
Woot woot Dolores
RUNNING WATER AND SPA
good luck for the new projects
Thanks
Love all your up & coming project ideas!!! Got our wheels spinning too!! The Shabin’ is definitely calling!!! Can’t wait to get back up.
Hope you both had a fun vacation!!
Should be a fun summer guys. Thank you and best wishes
Greenhouse in the side of the hill will be great, if you build the retaining walls out of stone/block work it will extend the growing season. Also raised beds will help you with your growing season ☺️ good luck for the new projects this year
It would be awesome right? Let's hope it works out well, lol.
Sounds exciting and lots of work ! Yes hot tub 😅 The pups are having fun 🥶🥵🐾🐾🐾🐾❤️👍
Very! 😊
Definitely the cold storage greenhouse and water solution. Enjoy the spring I hope it comes in soon for you.
Thanks Melissa.....fingers crossed 😊
Morning guys. Hope all is well.
😊👍
Looking forward to all the upcoming projects. I'd focus on the garden and green house first and then everything else while watching your garden growing throughout the summer.
Probably a good idea, cheers to another productive year my friend. Thanks for all your support along the way
Put in a few raise bed for some herbs and maybe some lettuce and tomatoes
😊👍
Great video! I would start dealing w/ the greywater system
Front doorway n screened-in sauna
Fabulous card Vicky 😍
Great plans first thing should be a mud room
😊👍
Hi Jay & Jen! Can’t wait to see the 2023 list! You guy’s are always very busy!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻Blessings
Lots of love Laura
Root cellar would be fun!

A long list indeed....but we like it that way....at least for one more year, lol. Best wishes my friend
the front door room first
They are all great ideas ! We used to have a hottub and loved it in the winter being in the warm water and the snow misting your face. Anxious to see your plans to make your cabin even better !
Looking forward to it as well.....thanks Cindy
Im excited to see the soffits and the gutters and then whatever other projects you have, i love your videos and i think building a porch on the front would be great xx
Lots of love Vicky.....thank you for being here with us
Entrance way

Very interested in your water collection system
