Anyway, just like homesteading, you have to start somewhere. So here's my first video that lasts less than three minutes and took me nine hours to make :-( Hope it is entertaining to some degree. Feel free to tell me how bad it is...at least I'll know somebody watched it.
Back Home Report
Wifey text me earlier today to let me know that one of the songs they sang in church today was: "I'll go wherever you want me to go". Hmm, another sign?
A friend of mine (from my old job) and his wife went by and visited with Wifey and the girls last night. She was happy to have some "adult" conversation. They also brought a 20lb turkey over to share. When Wifey told Bella-boo that a friend was bringing over a 20lb turkey, she said "Why, we can't even keep a chicken?" I think I forgot to post that our new German Shephard ate our last three chickens a few weeks ago. Anyway, her comment was funny.
New Rules on the Farm
None. I didn't leave the farm house all day cause I was making this darn video.
Loved it!
ReplyDeleteDid you lose those gates?....bahahahahahha
should have been "close" those gates....
ReplyDeleteThanks! I didn't close the inner gate. I closed the outer thinking "no cows will get to the road." By leaving the inner gate open, I almost let 35 head of cattle poop in the yard. Won't do THAT again.
ReplyDeleteGood job way better then I could have done. SO yes I watched it. AZ to OK in 17 you sir are an animal.(NUTS). From one Dad to another, they will get along for a while, time will fly.
ReplyDeleteGreat video. You should get an Emmy or Oscar or one of those movie awards. No kidding, you did a great job and I bet your wife and daughters will love it, too.
ReplyDeleteDD - you're too kind... or going blind. It's one or the other. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteRob - I seem to have a knack for driving long distances. Perhaps I should have been a trucker? Thanks for checking in.
ReplyDeleteExcellent job.... You are doing what I am heading out to do in 11 days: Leaving Nashville to Northern Idaho... Downsizing life and learning to be happy again.... Keep posting your progress, I look forward to reading / watching them everyday....
ReplyDeleteYou are living the dream! And I am living it vicariously through you. You will never regret making this change in your lives. Have fun...time goes by fast.
ReplyDeleteAnon735 That's a MUCH longer drive than I made. If you have time, share your story with us. I'm still having a hard time sleeping, this adventure is so amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnon1007 Yes, it does go by fast. That is part of what spurred me into gear. Thanks for checking in.
Not bad at all.
ReplyDeleteNice video. Was that a rosary you were holding?
ReplyDeleteSam - thanks.
ReplyDeleteRose - thanks. Those were my earbuds, lol.
Roof looks new. Paint seems fresh. Power is on. Got a job. World by the tail!
ReplyDeleteGood luck sir, from the Fort in ARK.
ReplyDelete-fenris-
nicely done. The cure for anything that ails you is: Love of God, a great family that loves you, and hard, honest work.
ReplyDeleteSeems like you're all set.
I'll be watching your progress and offering prayers for your success.
Thanks Fenris!
ReplyDelete@Anon 8:51 thumbs up!
Great effort. You'll just get faster and faster with creating those videos.
ReplyDeleteThat was a very good video. Welcome to NW Oklahoma there Jeep Dad! You moved to a great area, I have friends and relations around there and they are all very good people.
ReplyDeleteGreat video - I felt like I was there with you. Welcome to the rural Midwest! 4 seasons, no traffic and you can talk about God without getting funny looks. If you are anywhere near Kansas City any time soon let us know & I'll buy you lunch.
