    How fast a little neglect can become overwhelming. The maple trees can grow rather quickly over a little bit of time and it underscores the importance of removing saplings before they take root!

    I’ve been a sub for three years and haven’t missed an episode. Every other day I know when my alarm goes off I’ll have a video to watch. I’ve noticed something different about the videos for the last few months and you mentioned it on the podcast on the first or second episode of the year, the videos aren’t as much fun to make anymore. I could tell you were/are getting a little burnt out. They weren’t as lively so I started missing episodes going days without watching. I saw you post the start of the series and I was intrigued so I watched it. Something about this series seems to have sparked some new excitement for you and I’m glad for it.
    One thing that I hope you include in the series is moving all of your crap from the gym to the farm. I don’t think we’ve ever seen a video of your other storage facility, all we have seen is the house and the shed at the market.
    I may be completely off base on my analysis but I’m glad you guys bought this farms do are able to get great use out of all of it and can make great content from it as well.

    @curtdawe 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Mike, that building shows why it's important to keep trees at bay and away from buildings as much as possible. We had to take down a green maple (one of two green and one red) on our lawn that my grandfather had planted decades ago. It was a huge tree. My older brother hates parting with them, but the amount of light alone that I gained in my bedroom was considerable. I'm figuring the other one needs to go, IMHO. I think they help caused moss to grow on our old shingles, too ... attracting shade, moisture on the house, etc. Does that seem possible?
