That Porter truly is a good guy. His overall knowledge of the Hands-On trades that he's been teaching y'all along the way is just another wonderful part of your videos. So happy y'all found each other. 🙂
I just love Porter, he needs his own channel for those dope excavating skills! I also love the friendship you girls have built with him! He’s definitely like part of the pack! As always you gals blow my mind with each project you take on! Cheers to growth, in all its shapes and sizes! 💜
I agree, I'd love to follow him and his business/life, he is kewl. HOWEVER, video edit skills take time to develop, even with help....and very stressful, fun stress - but not for everyone. He seems pretty laid back, it would be interesting to see how he would even tackle all that.
I work until midnight, five days a week, with high risk youth, and after each shift, like clockwork, I come home, turn on the TV and watch, either you two, or tyler and todd, building your lives together on the other side of the country. You are my warm blanket and bedtime story - the Canadian calming app that lulls me to sleep. Thank you so much for being outliers and dream chasers...inspired!
As a couple of content creators who are trying to make "feel good" videos, this channel has been 24k gold for us. Its very very very difficult to keep your videos fast-paced/casual and yet make them this feel good/ Happy. But you guys do this time and again. We have learnt so much by just decoding your edits. It feels great to be living in times where we can see such good content made by regular ppl. You know...Ppl you could randomly run into and be friends with on a normal day. Big hugs from India ❤❤❤❤❤
Aww Pooja & Shravan thank you so very much for all your special compliments it really means so much to us. We are so happy to have you as part of our community.. see you next Sunday!💛💛
Coming from a really conservative country in Europe, it's so nice and refreshing to see you being so open about your relationship! I just wish it was the case here as well :/
You girls were so lucky to meet Porter! What if he hadn't been the one who delivered all your ground cover when you first moved in? He's so skilled but also so much fun, you make a great team! Your homestead is looking great!
When you are ready to pull wires through the conduit do the shop vac trick. Tie a small part (amount depends on size of conduit) of a plastic bag to a string line. Use the vac to suck the string through the conduit. Then attach a rope strong enough to pull the wire and bring it through the conduit. Attach a wire pulling basket to the rope and pull the wire through.
Wow,you make a great team with Porter! Excellent job with the trenches,so happy to see you enjoying hosting your friends and family. I look forward to Sunday mornings with you,can't wait for next week!💛💛
I love Porter!!! His personality has really come through as he spends more time with you and on camera!!! Oh and I'm pumped to check out Ecoflow!!!! I've been living in my van in The Yukon Territory for a year now and still need to finish my power system!! As always you are amazing!! Talk about life goals! And relationship goals! The two of you are incredible. And now I get to watch three weeks of videos!!!!
Impressive! Garage delivery guys were determined and effective. Porter-as always knows his stuff and keeps to the plan. Your homestead is absolutely gorgeous. Wow!
Hugh Shout out to both Porter and the guys who delivered the garage with that being said I am a food guy and once again everything you girls make looks absolutely amazing and once again, I am going to keep saying it we need a Van wives and Friends cookbook.
Truly an amazing episode . Porter is definatly a family member now and I think he really enjoys working with you all and I believe that he will be very sad when all the work is done ... You really have and amazing group of friends and it was good to see every one letting the hair down and anjoying themselves . That shed , Awesome , now the question is , how fast can we fill it up .😁😁. I am in awe with what you have all done aroung your home , very hard too imagine that there is much more to do .. Keep enjoying Life Girls . aussie bob .
Hey Bob, happy you enjoyed. Porter is definitely a family member now, we all have a great relationship. All the work will never be done. Ha ha But if it is he will still be a part of our lives💛🐾
We ran all of our utilities underground in conduit as well. When we fished to run the cable, we added a piece of nylon rope in each conduit and left it in place. The rope is 2x the length of the run, so if we ever want to run another line we already have the fish line in place. Makes life so much easier in the future. Keep up the good work!
smart! I was thinking something very similar also!! bit too long to use the yellow tongue (from ply sheets) on short distances like we normally would lol
ALL HAIL Porter, he is AMAZING!! You all work so well together. He is GOOD people and a keeper. It brings me so much joy to see that he even gets to enjoy campfires with you when the work is done each day. I just want to hug him so hard. Take care of each other!! ‼️💯❤️
Hello ladies. I’m excited for you all. Each accomplishment is such a rush.😅Porter is such a lovely young man. All the love you have for each other shines so bright. Never stop having fun. Bye.
That must have been such an epic feeling of happiness having everyone over to enjoy your oasis in the woods. Also, Porter is such a mensch. What a great friend to have found.
Congrats on your new Delta Ecoflow (and everything else that just came in!). You're probably already aware, but those expensive portable solar panels that you mounted to the roof aren't meant to stay out in the weather - they'll degrade faster and shouldn't be left out in the rain. You can get some cheaper rigid glass panels and put them up there and they'll do a much better job and last a good 25 years or so. Best of luck to you all and a big hello to Porter too!
Hi beautiful family. We are all worried about you considering the hurricane that came ashore in your area. When you are able, please let us all know that you are okay. Thanks. Stay well and safe. Hope things aren't too bad at your property.
Porter is a true gem! Hard work and good friends makes it fun. You always have a smile on your faces, and share those smiles to others. That is why i love watching every sunday. Thank you for sharing as always! 💛
I just love porter always smiling thru it all! Very kind hearted! Beautiful work! Love how they made dinner for 3 and just chilled and relaxed after hard days work!!
Bella pulls so many funny faces. I think Izzy is the quiet sensible one while Bella gets into everything. Amazing how much personality dogs have! I would love to visit you. It looks like an amazing place. I'm in my small flat in New Zealand and really enjoying watching all that you're doing.
You're making great progress girls! Really turning the place into an oasis. You're so lucky to have Porter who's calm professionalism is invaluable, a very dependable and honest tradesman. Not easy to find!
Holy Mother of all things Magical!!! Watching those guys maneuver that truck with the garage was jaw dropping amazing! Rock stars! And then we have Porter the amazing Master of all things! I'm loving this catching up I'm doing!!! Thanks ladies!
The garage is awesome! It's massive! The whole project is really starting to get all tied together. You two, with the help of friends and family are creating such a spectacular place! Porter is a beast on the excavator! Also those pizzas looked epic!
First of all, can we all give it up for PORTER!!!!! HE IS A FREAKING G!!! 😁🥰 Please let him know that we all appreciate his help as much as y’all do! 🙏🏻 Second of all, I’m invested, how do I become a friend so I can attend the bash next September?!?! 🤷🏼♀️🤣 Please email me the application! 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ Well done on another great video! Loved seeing T&M reunited with you all! 🫶🏼
Wow!! so much going on this week, what with trenches to dig, pipes to lay and friends/family to entertain. Great to see Tal and Mads at the cabin and glad you were able to take some time to enjoying the visit. As for Porters skills with that excavator it just goes to show, not all heroes wear capes.
Hey Luigi you are right it was a beautiful week, a balance of work and okay. Porter has amazing skills, we are so happy we found him from the beginning. 💛🌞
WOW, awsome job ladies. Porter is having as much fun as you; and it's nice to see him become such an important member of your family. It was nice to meet Tal and Mags; they are so cool. I just subscribed to their channel to get to know them better. I'm looking forward to seeing their video of their trip to your cabin. Oh, and Jazz paddling in the trenches was awesome. Anyway, you two stay safe and don't overdo it. Hugs to Bella & Izzy too. Bernie ❤
That episode was major! Great accomplishments and lots of fun along the way! Whatever you have, it's because you dreamed, set goals, used whatever means available to get the work done, and really deserve the very, very best. Built with love and joy and hard work! Well done! I laughed and teared up right along with you! Yay!! 😊😉💙💚💜❤💝
Did I tell you how much I love those dogs....I'm glad you are staying at the cabin this winter, love watching your renos, keep up the good work girls!!...Let's not forget Porter, he's having the time of his life..lol
Wow, what a fun video! Porter needs a medal. What treat seeing the "Other Vanwives", Tal and Mads, and your family. Great work, Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
I freakin love watching you guys, every week you two seem more and more happy in your space, it fills my heart with joy! Can't wait to start on my own "cabin in the woods" dream, you two are such an inspiration!
Every video I say this was the best. But this video was truly the absolute best so far. You all are so much fun. I have a cougar crush on Porter what a doll.
Nice job guys! You should be proud of your amazing progress. You can tell just how nice Porter is, it's great to have him part of the team. Excellent job, see you next Sunday
So glad to see you this morning! Since my crazy cat got me up at 4:30am, I got the alert early. Love the new garage! I also thought that if you ever need to make a guest house, you could use a portion of it. Can’t wait to see the solar 🌞 up and running.
Got a love Porter the can do man, it just shows how special you two are, that your Friends come from miles away just to spend precious time with you. When you finally get your electricity wired in, you won't know your selves. Thanks again for making our Sundays a brighter day.
Thanks for all the inspo ladies!! About to embark on a similar adventure in Australia and I will be using so many of your ideas. Watching your videos always makes me so excited to get started. Much love to you and all the Pack! ❤️🐾
Porter, we love u and thank u for helping our girls.. It takes a team and Porter is part of the team.. Looks amazing. Love and hugs from Boston, MA🙏🏻🥰🇵🇷
Girl's! I started watching this morning i had a 9 hour day finally watching the rest 9 42pm Great job Porter! I love Bella n lizzy your friends cooking looks soooooooo yummy 😋 have a great week Girl's 😍❤
Porter is obviously a good/qualified operator but more than that he seems like a great neighbor and friend. Congrats 👏 on this huge milestone before winter.
That is what I have been waiting for! Living, really living not just working all the time and I love you included Porter, what a sweet soul he is. Continue to play but please do it more than you work. I worked my youth and didn't realize I had a debilitating arthritis already brewing in my body. I wish I could do it over and work less and live more.
Porter is a true blessing for you girls. That young man is a great asset. The garage delivery guys have mad skills, that was amazing. Congrats on your newest acquisitions.
Can I get a heck yeah for Porter!!!! That guy is awesome!!!! And you ladies kick butt as well. It's so fantastic when great people come together & do really amazing thing together. Lots Love & Light from a wee little town called Harpursville in NY. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜😇🙏🏻
Porter rocks! And he’s literally taking out rocks! He is a great part of your videos whenever you call him to help out. We love Porter. And we also love Tal & Mads too! I love how at the end, this was like a Marvel Superhero mashup with everyone celebrating the end of summer. How much fun was had? Love your videos and love the progress from last year when the property was abandoned and had so much brush. Now you’ve made it into a home for you and the dogs plus you can entertain any time you like! Love you both!!!
Hi Guys, quite an adventure with the driveway access but of course you succeeded. This reminds me of when I got transferred from Montreal to Port Hastings on Cape Breton. The house we bought needed some gravel for the driveway so I ordered it and was promissed delivery real soon. However, weeks went by and several phone calls ;after a moth it arrived and. while discussing with the contractor where we had moves from, he replied with some sage advice. "I Recommend you throw away your watch and get a real good calendar" .We loved our 4 year stay in Cape Briton and found the people wonderful once you sorted out which Macdonald was which and why they all had at least two names plus Macdonald. Greatvlog ladies and friends,you continue to amaze me, well done. Take care have fun ...though I don't really have to tell you that as you always do. Lots of love from your Maritime neighbour XX
I clapped when the building hit the ground! Priorities! Porter is a great friend. We could all use a Porter! So smart to add extra underground conduit. I would put the pull rope in now because fishing a long length can be a huge PITA, especially if you have a few tight turns (ran over a million feet of cable when I stopped counting). Great to meet Tal & Mads. Great to see Tyler and Todd! What a great vlog today! Love you, pack!
Porter is an absolute absolute legend, you are so lucky to have his exceptional and Professional Skills!. What a truly Amaising Episode with your outstanding guests! Stay safe, healthy and we always look forward to the next video.
Just gets better and better! Porter Rocks!!! And YES Crystal adult pogo is a whole thing complete with a world championship competition! Love how you balance work and play🌻💛🌻
Will you be posting every week during winter. My wife left me 6 weeks ago after 4 years of marriage and watching your videos help me thru the lonely times. You two have been a part of my healing process Thank you
Great seeing Tal and Mads out there. I just bet you guys had so much fun! And Porter is the sweetest guy ever. You guys are so lucky to have found him. What a great friend to have. I am heading out solo with my 4 dogs in only 2 weeks away now to the west. I have never driven my rv out of NY yet so driving west across the rockies is making me nervous but I am going to be brave and you girls are my inspiration ! I will be documenting and journaling the trip.
Hey Shelty6 you are so right. We had so much fun but we did just as much work.. it is the balance of life. We believe you can do it, we are sure it will be life changing for you! 💛💛 We are so thankful that we found Porter.
Good morning to all four of you. The garage is impressive and will make your life so much easier. Electricity here we come. Let's see... you have a toilet... you have water... you have plants... you have a hut tub... and soon you will have... so much more. Great job and can't wait for the next step next Sunday. Take care and all our love...🥰🥰🥰
Andre yesssss it’s all little milestones that will bring this place together. Now to get all those components inside the cabin and functional before snowfall will be af fun challenge. See you next Sunday, lots of love to you 💛
Man, I love seeing people celebrating work, life, dogs, excavators, pizza....this was just super fun to watch. Thanks for letting us all share a little bit.
How am I still amazed every week at how awesome you guys are!!! The fact you’re doing everything yourselves to make this cabin off grid is incredible!! That EcoFlow Delta pro is a need in my future to power my RV on the road!! 😍😍
Hi Porter. As usual your skills are so good. It’s good to see your smiling face and I agree with a comment I seen that you could start your own channel with your mad skills. It’s mesmerizing to watch. Exciting times ladies 😍 you’re channel is my absolute favorite and makes Mondays (I’m in Australia) awesome. I just love your content and your dogs and your property and your van and of course you both 😍
HI CRYSTAL & JAZMYN 👋 EVERYTHING IS COMING ALONG REALLY NICE . PORTER IS A GREAT PERSON & PATIENT TOO ! SHOWING / TEACHING YOU'LL HOW TO USE EVERYTHING SAFELY.

ENJOYED 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS ON YOUR ADVENTURES 🙏 THANK YOU 🙏 IT'S GREAT TO HAVE CLOSE FRIENDS TO COME HELP IF THEY CAN GET AWAY FROM THEIR NORMAL LIFE 🙂
I know I’m boringly repetitive on this point, but your vids fill me with happies and peace. Wish those feelings could spread everywhere and overcome all the bad spirits down here. Love you guys.
This year you come on heaps. Your so lucky to have a friend like Porter. It makes my weekend watching all the work you ladies are doing. Best of luck with all your future projects..❤️👍👍
I love Porter so much that when you called him I got all verklempt. My eyes are leaky. I'm sure all the beer only has a little to do with it. He's great, right? Like I don't just mean to y'all which would be enough to make me love him but he's _such an awesome human being!_
Every weekend I think my husband looks forward to watching your videos as much as I do! Out of all the u-tube videos I watch you guess are my favorite! You just make THE BEST videos! My husband always comes up behind me and watches ....he says he loves looking at you both because you are both so beautiful! aaaawwww But he always says he loves watching cause you guys are "bad asses!" He just keeps remarking how you guys just "go and get it done".....you guys show up a lot of men he knows. So thanks to a couple of beautiful ladies who know how to get things done! We don't need no man to do the heavy lifting (except for Porter) we can do it ourselves! hee hee love you guys.....looking forward to next week!
Love how you take on all of your projects with positivity and love when Porter joins to help!!! Y’all make me feel better about taking on any project in my home!!!
Watching you guys makes me genuinely so happy. I love Sunday’s! All my TH-cam family puts out awesome videos they have worked so hard on! Porter really is a good worker!
All of the projects are coming together so good , new Hickory garage , Porter working with the cat and Tal & Mads showing up , laying the pipe , then more friends show up , what a cool get together with lots of food , laughter , good times and hard work , an awesome enjoyable video of great people doing an awesome job. .. Catch ya on the flip side ..🐾🐾 Paws Up 🐾🐾 .. Cheers.
That Porter truly is a good guy. His overall knowledge of the Hands-On trades that he's been teaching y'all along the way is just another wonderful part of your videos. So happy y'all found each other. 🙂
Porter must have the patience of a saint! Always smiling through every task. Great job everyone!
He actually does!!!! He’s so patient lol
We love you Porter!!
I just love Porter, he needs his own channel for those dope excavating skills! I also love the friendship you girls have built with him! He’s definitely like part of the pack! As always you gals blow my mind with each project you take on! Cheers to growth, in all its shapes and sizes! 💜
Porter is amazing just like the Vanwives. Bella is Gangsta!! Great example of work hard play hard.
I agree, I'd love to follow him and his business/life, he is kewl. HOWEVER, video edit skills take time to develop, even with help....and very stressful, fun stress - but not for everyone. He seems pretty laid back, it would be interesting to see how he would even tackle all that.
Ditto!!! He is awesome.
VW… my fave YT’rs. ❤
Agreed. What a badass!!!
I was thinkiing the same, Porter should have his own channel filming his day to day. 🙂
Porter is the most amazing human. He is always up for a challenge and willing to do anything for a friend (or two). What a treasure!
Such a treasure you’re absolutely right
Yes Porter is one amazing helpful gentleman, Is he married is he taken? I hope not he's the one for me girls!!!!!
I love how Crystal always gets teary when good things happen. We love our emotional queen! 😂♥️♥️
Crystal sure is my emotional girl, she is easy to love.💛💛
I work until midnight, five days a week, with high risk youth, and after each shift, like clockwork, I come home, turn on the TV and watch, either you two, or tyler and todd, building your lives together on the other side of the country.

So true. I’m constantly amazed at the pace they maintain. Hard work! They’re amazing!!!
@@Vanwives where did you order this beauty from?
When Porter crossed the trench...well I had to watch that over and over! Yes, to second Crystal, great skills.....mad skills.
The way porter just made it over the trench in the excavator wow skills he has ;)
Right 👏🏽
So happy you went big on the garage. When the Universe sends you Porter, you know you’re doing the right thing.
Show of hands to start a Porter fan club. 🙌
We are the first to put our hands high up in the air. Porter is a great guy. Fan club started. 💛🌞
Coming from a really conservative country in Europe, it's so nice and refreshing to see you being so open about your relationship! I just wish it was the case here as well :/
I hope positive change happens where you are, too. Sending all the good vibes possible that change happens sooner rather than later. 👍💗
@@Mtnsunshine Aw thanks ❤
Gotta love Porter! Everyone should have a Porter! 😍👏🏼Great Job guys! 🥳💕
Hey Tabi, you are so right, everyone needs a Porter, he has become like family 💛🌞
You girls were so lucky to meet Porter! What if he hadn't been the one who delivered all your ground cover when you first moved in? He's so skilled but also so much fun, you make a great team! Your homestead is looking great!
the planets really aligned for that delivery!!!
When you are ready to pull wires through the conduit do the shop vac trick. Tie a small part (amount depends on size of conduit) of a plastic bag to a string line. Use the vac to suck the string through the conduit. Then attach a rope strong enough to pull the wire and bring it through the conduit. Attach a wire pulling basket to the rope and pull the wire through.
aww I adore Porter, you can tell he loves doing his job, especially with you two.
Wow,you make a great team with Porter! Excellent job with the trenches,so happy to see you enjoying hosting your friends and family. I look forward to Sunday mornings with you,can't wait for next week!💛💛
Great video!! Kept my mind off of Hurricane Fiona hitting PR now. Pogo sticks are on Amazon-- start at around $50. I wanna see you pogo!!
Aww Mary thank you for your kind words. Porter is an integral part of our team. We love hosting. Thank you for watching.💛🐾

Porter is a blessing from ... He is a prime example of a Canadian ... this is what and who we are. Best wishes and kudos to Porter.

I spied T&T w/ my little eyes. ❤️ The clips were so fast I had to pause and go back once I thought I saw y'all!!
Hello Friends.. thanks for the love.. we will be sharing with you in detail 🤣
Bella pulls so many funny faces. I think Izzy is the quiet sensible one while Bella gets into everything. Amazing how much personality dogs have!

So fun to see all the girls and Porter! Things are really coming along.
Another tremendous episode! You two are doing such a great job on your homestead!
Thanks for being part of our wonderful community. See you next Sunday.💛🐾
If there is something more beautiful, it is when you work hard for your dreams and they come true, congratulations, and take care of yourselves
Aww what beautiful words. Thanks for being part of our community.💛🐾
Fantastic job on the moat for your castle! And so good to see all the friends having a great time!
Wow, what a fun video! Porter needs a medal. What treat seeing the "Other Vanwives", Tal and Mads, and your family. Great work, Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.

Thanks Deb!! :)
Nice job guys! You should be proud of your amazing progress. You can tell just how nice Porter is, it's great to have him part of the team. Excellent job, see you next Sunday
Porter has become so comfortable on camera. He is hysterical.
Such a funny human 😂
So glad to see you this morning! Since my crazy cat got me up at 4:30am, I got the alert early. Love the new garage! I also thought that if you ever need to make a guest house, you could use a portion of it. Can’t wait to see the solar 🌞 up and running.
Got a love Porter the can do man, it just shows how special you two are, that your Friends come from miles away just to spend precious time with you. When you finally get your electricity wired in, you won't know your selves. Thanks again for making our Sundays a brighter day.
I was halfway through watching tal and mads video and seen a sneak peek of the garage. Had to pause and wait for y’all to upload 😂💛
How lucky you are to have such a great friend. You rock Porter!!
We know it Hollie. Porter is the best, When were looking for an excavator and gravel delivery we were lucky to find Porter. Now a great friend. 💛🐾
Just finished watching Tal and Mads and y'all's video came up and I was so excited to see Tyler &Todd at the end! GREAT video ladies! ❤️
Thanks for being a part of our community. See you next Sunday.💛🐾
Wow. Such progress.
Porter is like a brother to you both. He is fantastic. 😀
Your home is looking fabulous. 😀
Thanks for all the inspo ladies!! About to embark on a similar adventure in Australia and I will be using so many of your ideas. Watching your videos always makes me so excited to get started. Much love to you and all the Pack! ❤️🐾
Good Luck with your adventure we know it will be a success! Sending much love back.💛🐾
@@Vanwives thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
Porter, we love u and thank u for helping our girls.. It takes a team and Porter is part of the team.. Looks amazing. Love and hugs from Boston, MA🙏🏻🥰🇵🇷
He sure is! Thank you so much xx
Hope you guys have everything charged up and are watching the hurricane as I think it maybe passing by you guys soon! 🌀⛈️ Stay safe!
Girl's! I started watching this morning i had a 9 hour day finally watching the rest 9 42pm Great job Porter! I love Bella n lizzy your friends cooking looks soooooooo yummy 😋 have a great week Girl's 😍❤
Porter is obviously a good/qualified operator but more than that he seems like a great neighbor and friend. Congrats 👏 on this huge milestone before winter.
That is what I have been waiting for! Living, really living not just working all the time and I love you included Porter, what a sweet soul he is. Continue to play but please do it more than you work. I worked my youth and didn't realize I had a debilitating arthritis already brewing in my body. I wish I could do it over and work less and live more.
Porter is a true blessing for you girls. That young man is a great asset. The garage delivery guys have mad skills, that was amazing. Congrats on your newest acquisitions.
Can I get a heck yeah for Porter!!!! That guy is awesome!!!! And you ladies kick butt as well. It's so fantastic when great people come together & do really amazing thing together. Lots Love & Light from a wee little town called Harpursville in NY. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜😇🙏🏻
Hope you are safe and that nothing was destroyed. I am concerned for the fur girls as well. Thinking of you all and praying as well.
Porter rocks! And he’s literally taking out rocks! He is a great part of your videos whenever you call him to help out. We love Porter. And we also love Tal & Mads too! I love how at the end, this was like a Marvel Superhero mashup with everyone celebrating the end of summer. How much fun was had? Love your videos and love the progress from last year when the property was abandoned and had so much brush. Now you’ve made it into a home for you and the dogs plus you can entertain any time you like! Love you both!!!
Hi Guys, quite an adventure with the driveway access but of course you succeeded. This reminds me of when I got transferred from Montreal to Port Hastings on Cape Breton. The house we bought needed some gravel for the driveway so I ordered it and was promissed delivery real soon.
However, weeks went by and several phone calls ;after a moth it arrived and. while discussing with the contractor where we had moves from, he replied with some sage advice. "I Recommend you throw away your watch and get a real good calendar" .We loved our 4 year stay in Cape Briton and found the people wonderful once you sorted out which Macdonald was which and why they all had at least two names plus Macdonald.
Greatvlog ladies and friends,you continue to amaze me, well done.
Take care have fun ...though I don't really have to tell you that as you always do.
Lots of love from your Maritime neighbour XX
Porter is awesome!!! You guys have done so much since you got back! Great job Ladies!!!!
I clapped when the building hit the ground! Priorities! Porter is a great friend. We could all use a Porter! So smart to add extra underground conduit. I would put the pull rope in now because fishing a long length can be a huge PITA, especially if you have a few tight turns (ran over a million feet of cable when I stopped counting). Great to meet Tal & Mads. Great to see Tyler and Todd!
What a great vlog today! Love you, pack!
Hi Heather. We could all use a Porter that is for sure. Thank you for your kindness and your ideas.. see you next Sunday.💛🐾
I want to come to Summer Bash! You ladies and Porter did it again.....and that pizza looked Amazing ❣✌❤
Porter is an absolute absolute legend, you are so lucky to have his exceptional and Professional Skills!. What a truly Amaising Episode with your outstanding guests! Stay safe, healthy and we always look forward to the next video.
That was great love the four of you together and Porter is amazing and noticed that Todd and Tyler made it over also.
Just gets better and better! Porter Rocks!!! And YES Crystal adult pogo is a whole thing complete with a world championship competition! Love how you balance work and play🌻💛🌻
Porter is so cute, what a sweet guy. Also love all the stuck puppy lips 😂
Thank you ladies and Porter for bringing so much joy and laughter into our lives. Very best wishes and love from the UK.
Thank you for watching each Sunday to make it all happen xx
Will you be posting every week during winter. My wife left me 6 weeks ago after 4 years of marriage and watching your videos help me thru the lonely times. You two have been a part of my healing process Thank you
Great seeing Tal and Mads out there. I just bet you guys had so much fun! And Porter is the sweetest guy ever. You guys are so lucky to have found him. What a great friend to have. I am heading out solo with my 4 dogs in only 2 weeks away now to the west. I have never driven my rv out of NY yet so driving west across the rockies is making me nervous but I am going to be brave and you girls are my inspiration ! I will be documenting and journaling the trip.
Hey Shelty6 you are so right. We had so much fun but we did just as much work.. it is the balance of life. We believe you can do it, we are sure it will be life changing for you! 💛💛
We are so thankful that we found Porter.
You guys are so lucky to have Porter to help you get these projects done , but I'm sure he loves working with people not afraid of the work.
We are all so lucky to have each other xx
Good morning to all four of you. The garage is impressive and will make your life so much easier. Electricity here we come. Let's see... you have a toilet... you have water... you have plants... you have a hut tub... and soon you will have... so much more. Great job and can't wait for the next step next Sunday. Take care and all our love...🥰🥰🥰
Andre yesssss it’s all little milestones that will bring this place together. Now to get all those components inside the cabin and functional before snowfall will be af fun challenge. See you next Sunday, lots of love to you 💛
Man, I love seeing people celebrating work, life, dogs, excavators, pizza....this was just super fun to watch. Thanks for letting us all share a little bit.
Thank you for being here and coming along with us. Appreciate your support and hope you have a lovely week 💛
How am I still amazed every week at how awesome you guys are!!! The fact you’re doing everything yourselves to make this cabin off grid is incredible!!
That EcoFlow Delta pro is a need in my future to power my RV on the road!! 😍😍
Hi Porter. As usual your skills are so good. It’s good to see your smiling face and I agree with a comment I seen that you could start your own channel with your mad skills. It’s mesmerizing to watch.
Exciting times ladies 😍 you’re channel is my absolute favorite and makes Mondays (I’m in Australia) awesome. I just love your content and your dogs and your property and your van and of course you both 😍
Wow Cathy thanks for all the love for us, Porter Bella and Izzy. Maybe one day Porter will start his own TH-cam channel. See you next Sunday.💛🐾

Happies! What a beautiful thing. Your comment filled me with joy. Thank you for being here 💛
This year you come on heaps. Your so lucky to have a friend like Porter.
It makes my weekend watching all the work you ladies are doing.
Best of luck with all your future projects..❤️👍👍
Ladies please be safe if the hurricane is in your path. Sending prayers and love from Florida.
I love Porter so much that when you called him I got all verklempt. My eyes are leaky. I'm sure all the beer only has a little to do with it. He's great, right? Like I don't just mean to y'all which would be enough to make me love him but he's _such an awesome human being!_
So happy you finally got your garage. Porter is such a cool, helpful guy. I bet it was nice having family and friends come to visit.
Every weekend I think my husband looks forward to watching your videos as much as I do! Out of all the u-tube videos I watch you guess are my favorite! You just make THE BEST videos! My husband always comes up behind me and watches ....he says he loves looking at you both because you are both so beautiful! aaaawwww But he always says he loves watching cause you guys are "bad asses!" He just keeps remarking how you guys just "go and get it done".....you guys show up a lot of men he knows. So thanks to a couple of beautiful ladies who know how to get things done! We don't need no man to do the heavy lifting (except for Porter) we can do it ourselves! hee hee love you guys.....looking forward to next week!
We love Porter!!! I hope you share all the messages people write about him with him or that he reads them :)
Love how you take on all of your projects with positivity and love when Porter joins to help!!! Y’all make me feel better about taking on any project in my home!!!
Watching you guys makes me genuinely so happy. I love Sunday’s! All my TH-cam family puts out awesome videos they have worked so hard on! Porter really is a good worker!
