While most of the Olympics are happening in Paris, right here,on your land, Nelson has absolutely smashed the gold medal. Give him a medal!!!!!
🏅🏅🏆🏅🏅 😎👍
🌟 Gold for Nelson 💪
😮😊😂@@Mrandmrsadventure
Would not miss an episode. Nelson, you are the star of this show from beginning to end. So many heroes in this world work behind the scenes and never recognized. Brittany and Drew, your job making a home inside/out will continue from now on. The home will be beautiful.❤
Nelson, Drew’s parents, Drew and of course, artistic Brittany, make the best team ever!
Nelson is beyond an expert with that excavator. I'm so excited, big things are happening... Yay
As an American, I appreciate y’all’s relationships with all the tradesmen you are working with. I actually commented on a very popular UTube channel in Portugal that it would be nice to acknowledge the guy he had filming that day. And he responded that he was JUST paid help and didn’t matter. So rude but at least he wasn’t American.
erm you don't have to be american to be nice we all are............arseholes exist everywhere unfortunatly
Thanks you for your meaningful words. That a shame that someone would answer in such a way. We value our workers so much and couldn't to this project with out their help and knowledge. We hope to have a celebratory party with them at the very end!
Nelson is awesome!
If you cut some of the thinner (younger/newer) branches of the fig tree, and stick them in a bucket of water, they will root and create new trees! 💕💕🌱🌱
So true, 😊I stuck one in a crawfish hole as a kid, and it grew up to big big fig tree.😊 I was 8..
@@loveycomeaux4380 Nice!🥰
That is an excellent solution/ suggestion! I would do that if I had fig trees. :D
@@pthaloblue100 I discovered it by accident when I broke a branch! Stuck it in water and it rooted💙
Yes, we will do exact this when the rainy season returns in the fall.
I can’t help but thank the workers for their physical labor and pride they take in their work.
I don't know what you pay Nelson, but he's worth every penny (or euro). I had a small excavator in my business (I'm now retired) and I couldn't use it anywhere near the level that Nelson does. What a lucky find for you guys!
Do not waste fig wood, just make cuttings and stick it in the ground. You can replace all those eucalyptus trees with figs :). Figs are easy to propagate and fast grovers, tons of info on youtube or local people advice
their sap is as flammable as eucalyptus better growing cork oaks as they are native are fire resistant
Did I see a small above ground pool in the background? Good idea for cooling off! And no lagoon snakes!
Exactly! Coming to an episode soon 🤫🥰
@@Mrandmrsadventurelove our 4.50 by 2.20 above pool without spain be unbearble
@@HeidiPriest A bit of water to cool off in makes all the difference! Stay cool amigos 💦
Tough property to dig for a septic tank with the rocky soil and the steep property, thankfully Nelson is skilled and ha good equipment.
Utilities: Power - solar for now, water - well, 2 tanks, possibly future roof run-off collection, stream, gray and black water - closed septic, later a bio-septic/gravel system.
Kudos to Nelson. Some more landscaping projects. Main infrastructure work getting done in the dry season.
Stunning how Nelson and all the others work so beautifully together, unlike others. Great video
I know you have to do so much to bring the watermill up to code, but Portugal has to be so pleased with the improvements you have made. I keep thinking about that proverbial elephant and your progress of eating him one bite at a time. I've got to believe that he is disappearing very quickly, and it won't be long before he's completely gone. I can't tell you how impressed I am with your progress in turning this land into a beautiful Shangri-La. I hope all of you that are watching these videos...Please Subscribe, it costs nothing.
Thank you for your support and encouraging others to support us by subscribing. It means the world to us! ❤
I enjoy watching your progress. Please keep an extra pump so you don’t get caught without a pump when that septic pump fails. We must pump and ours failed Friday night of a 3 day holiday. We were without a pump for 4days. Resulting in staying at our daughter’s home until the new pump was installed. Congratulations on your progress. ❤
Dont let the fig tree die, simply transplant it in new area and it will grow quickly, you dont want to miss out on the fruit.
Getting closer and closer 😊❤ good job Nelson and all the other workers! Happy for you Drew and Brittany 🤗❤
Controlling the water level in both septic tanks is critical. You will need an automatic electrical control panel with low water and high water levels floats connected to start and stop the septic pump, you need an audible high-level alarm alarm. and you need a submersible pump designed for sewage. Good luck
One thumbs up for Nelson ... and they guy who fell ... you scared me 😂
I've been wondering if the rocky soil breaks off teeth from Nelson's bucket or just keeps them very sharp with all that dragging over the stones. Nelson seems to be a master at his craft.
Yay! A visit with Brittany and Drew, the kitty trio, and the beautiful Algarve! Happy Sunday and lots of love from Vermont. (And Hey Nelson!)
Sending you lots of love back!! 😘😘😽😽😽
@@Mrandmrsadventure
Lovely way to spend 1/2 hour. Thank you!!
Impressive progress with your Portuguese language skills!
Nice to see Nelson again! You guys have and incredible team of folks and family helping to make your dreams come true! I can hardly wait to see the end product with all your creativity and hard work! Once your home becomes a reality, I wonder how your adventures will change.
Wow! Congradularions! The infrastructure, plumbing, sewer and electrical are the critical parts of a building! Thanks to Nelson and extraordinary expertise for helping you get your habitation license!❤❤❤
Nelson and your renovating team are absolute supermen !
Another huge accomplishment!
I sure hope the lid was placed onto the first container ( by the house )🎉 before any rains came.
Does Nelson feel like he's " moved in with you both? "
Will be amazing to see all after the terra forming is accomplished.
Bet the town councils didn't think you two would ever make it this far!
Love to mom and dad for all the helping. Your land and castle are gonna need a HUGE MANUAL for all the upkeep on everything!
Better include a "History room " to house it all. Sigh.
So much progress and work accomplished. Nelson is truly amazing with that machine.
Nelson! Nelson! Nelson! Congrats you guys! Such a big step forward!
I’m subscribed to Drew and Brittany’s channel,and what an amazing adventure it has been!
Look forward for to Sundays besides going to church. You never know what blessings await you!
Operating the equipment for Nelson, is like a third arm! So excited for you!👏🙏🏻💕
Getting the septic system in was a big step to making your farm and mill a great place to live. Great job, team!
congrats with the giant strides forward. all the men who have been working to refurbish your magical water mill have been amazing. i especially have such mad respect for nelson!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼praying for your folks, floridians and neighboring states with the impending tropical storm debby. continued blessings.🕊
Your determination to solve the complicated septic issue while transforming the watermill into your dream home is truly admirable. Your commitment to tackling challenges with such perseverance and creativity highlights your remarkable dedication to making your vision a reality. And I am Floating Village Life.
I enjoyed your happiness ! When you live in a city or suburb one doesn't think of water, electricity or sewerage. It's been a very informative episode. Thanks.
why not it's a cost you should look to save water at least, we have it in abundance here until summer then its an issue. I save it all year for the plants.
Nelson does such an amazing job 😮 he helps you so much thank you Nelson and showing your awesome work
What a happy & exciting video!!! Loved watching every moment if this! Everyone is trucking !!
Nelson is just extraordinarily talented with that machine! A good friend at that!!! See you all on the next one! Cheerio !! ❤❤❤
So much progress on the land, and in your use of the language. Nelson is a super hero!
What are the people who haven’t subscribed yet waiting for, this is the best entertainment on CZcams! Love you guys. From a fan in Idaho, USA👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.
YOU'RE THE BEST! ❤️
Nelson is a extremely efficient and skilled operator on his machine, brilliant to watch you guys are very lucky to have him at your side.
🙏 We are!
Nelson is amazing. The digger arm is an extension of his body. So very happy that you have made this amazing progress.
I love starting my Sundays with you guys 😊

So exciting to watch the work being down but I got really excited looking at the overview and seeing all the work that has been done! Wow!!! Oh a loved the little pool! Those are so necessary in hot climates! And making whirlpools in them is fast and fun! ❤
Drew and Britany You Both are Brilliant! Just look at your Dream coming to Life!
> All the Planning / organizing / researching / ordering / timing of everything / coordinating all the workers / paperwork / language barriers AND amazing....Filming & Editing !
Plus...all the Physical Work! Building-Renovated a 'normal' house is stressful enough. But...Thinking out side the Box. (Then....Working in that HEAT)
God Bless you both. 🙏 > Not many could do this!!!
Awesome...ever closer to habitation!!!
That went so well! Nelson is awesome, the whole team you've had working for you has been amazing.
Great to see the progress you guys are making.
Brittany's hair looks great all those perfect curls 🥰

whoop whoop another great Sunday watch.. Happy August Drew & Britanny & Fury animals .........
Congrats!if you can find old twin bed spring you could keep your natural pond clean put itin your pond drag it out w/ a big chain attached to pick up.this is what we used do in northern MN. Once it was clean we only had to do it once a yr.😊
Clever idea! Thank you 🙌
I feel you must have money beyond YT and videos for this house/land to take shape. It must be in the millions!
Fabulous music choices 😎 60s smoooth and cheerful 😊 reminds us even more that Drew is like our own movie-smooth Ryan ONeil 😎📽🎬 Top Editing Brittany 🏆
Shout out to NELSON! 🇺🇸
Congratulations on getting the water system in place! Nelson is priceless! I am enjoying your channel from Indiana so very much!!

As Tropical storm Debby goes across Florida, my prayers are with the residents of that state. My prayers are also with your family which endured losses 2 years ago. Prayerfully your family will not be in this tropical storm.
Another great video. I know each day makes it more and more exciting and plus more anxious to get moved in. You guys worked so hard for all this. I love the Fort Myers Beach t shirt. I am going back end of the month there. Much love, Mathew in Switzerland
It's exciting.
Great progress this week ❤
Great work Nelson. I love just watching them put in the tanks in order that everything does run smoothly.❤❤ Great video Brittany and Drew ❤❤
Nelson is amazing and so informative of his country. Your videos are the best.❤❤ Your folks must love learning about your new country as well. Through your homestead journey you have bought some amazing, warm and friendly, smart people into your life. I am sure they think the same way about you two. Thankyou for sharing your journey. ❤❤
Love watching you guys because you always share your beautiful scenery with us to enjoy!!

Whow great progress ,thank god you found nelson he has been a great asset
Wow, so awesome to get that part of the "build" done!!! Nelson is a rockstar!
Nelson is doing such a fantastic job! It's interesting to watch everything come together.
Nice to see your dad again helping with the shipping container project. Not sure if Drew's parents are still there but we /in Florida are dealing with a tropical storm -Debby that has brought a lot of rain and some flooding. Hoping their property is okay. I remember you two helping out after Hurricane Ian and how much damage there was.
It's all happening now! Bravo
This was fantastic to watch! Nelson is a legend! Oh, please fill us in on the swimming pool 🏊♀️? Great job guys ❤ 🇦🇺
This is huge progress! 👏 I’m so excited for you to get these steps moving along! Can’t wait to see the next series of videos. I get the way this works going through my own renovations in Florida. Nothing happening for months & then all of a sudden everything starts moving along. 🎉❤
Bonne journée de travail.👍👍👍👍🇫🇷🇵🇹
Sooooooo happy for you guys! I'm learning so much from your project! I've finally got my land and in the process of getting the licensing for the borehole and septic tank so I was super excited to see this happening! Great job! Nelson and crew are amazing too!
@18:51 > Beautiful Blue Skies and Big White Clouds. Nice.
Emocionante cada paso que dais!
😎I know this must be really exciting for you guys. It is exciting to watch the progress, and to watch the smiles on your faces.😎🤓
Very happy for you both nice to see your hard work taking shape .🎉
Drew, your Portuguese is amazing! Congratulations! I love watching Nelson, he’s very talented with that machine!
So excited at how far you've come this year!! I've never heard of pipes (water pipes etc) being referred to as 'tubes' before. Is that a Portuguese thing?
Love the new ending. Keep it up guys!
The garden wall at 8:50 is gorgeous!
Nelson is a Master Artist!
Love the progress being made. Youve had amazing crews !
Thanks guys for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you Mr and Mrs adventure, good work 👍😁💪👌👏👏👏.
The hose connection to the closed tank looks like it is screwed on crooked. I hope there’s no leaks.
