    Animals are amazing and interesting to watch. We used to leave food for the wildlife when the winters were really harsh. A true hunter is one who appreciates nature for its beauty and sustenance. You epitomize this philosophy. Have a great week, James. Happy Tuesday from Japan.

    I know you still grocery shop for some things and make store purchases for supplies and clothing, but it still just amazes me how you've built a place in the wild completely free from the grid and that it's of a quality that you can actually live in it year around, if you so desire to. Just so simplistic, yet so bountiful. Such freedom. Thanks so much for your channel and all of your efforts to share your experiences there with us. So inspirational. ATB.

    I enjoyed the animals at the pumpkin too. I spent an hour watching a chipmunk and a squirrel working on their respective halves of a pumpkin on the front porch. It has been years since that happened, and I had forgotten how cute it was. Thanks for reminding me.

    You're my relief. 100% .. You're my voice of reason /sanction in this crazy world.
    Your videos remind me of the sane world and the checks and balances that dictate the natural world..effortlessly.
    Thank you so much. Really

    Hi Shawn, I discovered your videos a few days ago and I enjoy them so very much.
    The house you built is so perfect and looks always so clean and so neat. I admire the work you have done. I like so much the color of the logs. I am amazed that when you drive a nail it is always right and when you put a shelf it is always perfectly straight. I use square or angle and level and it is always very difficult even for easy things. You are a fabulous carpenter. Things seem so easy with you. Many many thanks for what you give us. I am very far (Paris France) and the beauty of the landscape you show us is extraordinary. What impresses me is the light. Except when it is snowing or raining the sky seems always so clear and the light is almost violent. Thanks again. R. M.

    Hello! First time writing I live in mountains of north Ga.I have watched for a long time .I really enjoy your building and living like you do . I have visited some east of your area in my younger days .I have hunted and fished my whole life so I can relate.I do some woodworking and own a small bandmill I saw my own wood when I need it I'm building a blacksmith shop to make a few things. I learned this from my dad in the 60's .Am now retired and poke around at several trades when my health lets me.Keep up the good vidos.I really enjoy them.

    I Loved watching the Snowshoe Hare check out the pumpkin at 6:53 and more. First, he sniffs the top of the pumpkin . . then sniffs the bottom. Just cool as it can be. Also, I have never seen HOW a Snowshoe Hare changes from brown to white; it apparently happens from the feet up. SO COOL.

    Hi Shawn, nice short video about wild life around the cabin. That gives me sometimes to catch up with your previous videos. You've got already a lot of snow compare to us in Finland. The positive side is the light snow brings, right now it is so dark here. We only have day light from 09:00 to 16:00 and less until the beginning of next year. Take care and best regards from Finlande, Pascal

    Hello from Australia again, Shawn and Cali, it's always good to have a catchup even if it's not a long catchup, things keep moving along, it might be very cold but you still manage to get jobs done, I love watching how it's all going! The trail cameras are great too to get an idea on who else is watching what you are doing! That bear that was on your property a while ago, is that the bearskin on the wall now in the cabin? Till I view again, take care , keep warm and love that dog! 🐶

  • @doubledroptinehunter
    @doubledroptinehunter 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Not sure if you would want to spend the money but there are some new trail cameras that offer a direct link to your cell phone to view images and there are others that send their images wirelessly to one "home" camera so you don't have to go around to each one to check cards.
