    I don't know if you realise how special your channel is to some of us. Earlier this year I was dying of cancer ,my only hope was to go into hospital and have Cart T cells..it was a grim time but your channel was like the sun through the darkness. Thank you. Thankfully I got through it and am cancer free. From the bottom of my heart,thank you. You are both adorable may you go from strength to strength.

      So glad to hear you are finally well and may you stay that way. Having been through a stem cell transplant with my husband a few years ago, I know how incredibly tough the treatment is. Take care and stay well 👏🏻❤️

    What a wonderful way to set the garnets, allowing them to reveal as much or as little of themselves as they choose.

    The pure Happiness that pours out in your videos makes me a bit weepy eyed ...so many of us want happiness and can search for it a life through always something in the way ...this is why your videos are so wonderful for folks to escape wherever they are to the tranquility of your farm and in the barn while alex makes a ring while little shwoos watch its like we have been invited over its so nice especially with all going on in the world you know its hard to imagine some folks live in citys all their lives and maybe a handful of times have actually walked through grass! Hard to imagine...the good lord says he maketh me to lie down in green pastures and that is to have peace and peace of mind ...was great ladies glad you all spent a day with family.

    You don’t realise how tiny they are until your hand goes forward to pick the garnet up. When you zoom it with the camera they look as large as your pinky finger nail.

I am itching to get to our beaches on Corfu but still lots of tourists about so am keeping away for now. Watching your videos prompted me into tumbling some pebbles that I had already collected, I think you inspire us all. A very belated Happy Birthday Alex!! And...Happy Hunting! 💗

    Jeffery and Lady Janet. quite the names, sounds like a love story. Happy Birthday, Your wonderful videos are cheering me up. we have been with out visitors in our home since March, and only one visit to a friends cabin in the mountains, and I had to leave as people showed up, not wearing masks. they stayed away from me, as they understand illness and older people are more suseptible. so seeing you iin the woods and on the beach gives me hope I can drive somewhere quiet and dig around. I the peacefulness of each video, thank you.
