THE HOUSE. The first winter storm of the year. Before, during and after.

- Spending a few days at "The House". A big winter snowstorm comes through dropping over a foot of snow. Wind and cold follows. This was Melissa's first big snowstorm. We got to try out the snowblower, cook a couple of great meals and enjoy watching the snow. Winter is here to stay.
You always cook the most gorgeous meals -- regardless of the weather, where you are, etc. I am drooling!!
The snowblower is my favourite piece of gardening equipment. My enthusiasm for it is matched by a complete lack of need for one where I live.
ya they work great for spreading cow poop in the garden
I don't mind using a snow blower where I live . At least I don't have to worry about some hurricane or a tornado destroying my home or my neighbourhood
@@henryrodgers3409 ether do i none of that ever happens here, the worst thing ever is a 7 foot snow storm in 24 hours
Minnesota and the snow look so beautiful! I'd trade the heat and humidity of South Texas for Minnesota in a heartbeat
Rainbowlemur AJ We two native South Texans DID for rural farm up north and love it 💕💕💕
I love the snowblower doing the drive way
The cooker, the cleaner, the fixer. the plower....wow! Always busy and productive!
For petes sake everyone. Joe is born and raised in Minnesota. He knows what a snowplow is and how it works. I would guess he has some future plans, ie. A bobcat or snowplow or some piece of equipment, but this is something simple that Melissa has available and feels comfortable running if Joe is stuck in Minneapolis or the tent.
Exactly, With the garden, building plans and the driveway there's a small tractor with implements in Joe's future. Homesteads take time. Hes a go getter so it may be sooner than later.
Simple but 3+ hours in the a.m., p.m.??? HOLY 💩
Iv just this week found your wonderful program. I think the reason I enjoy it, is that whatever your day brings, you DRAG US ALONG with you. My dad could pretty much do everything, and watching you reminds me , now 80, of crouching down to hear what tool daddy wanted me to hand to him.if mother couldnt see us she knew we or one of us were under our old car or one a neighbor had pulled into our yard while we were gone. Daddy just fixed things that friends had that needed his good fingers to fix. He was my Champion, still the memory is. Thanks for the sweet memories you bring back.fondly, mrsjob
Those dogs may be from Louisiana, but from the looks of it, they sure do love the snow.
Great Man not leaving Your Partner alone in such big storm!!
You are a real gentleman to take care of Melissa. She did a great job on the pork steaks.
Joe, I live in southern MN. I love snow storms and was really bummed when all we got was two days straight of rain. Thanks for letting me experience the storm through your channel!
That's the first time I've ever seen a snowblower in action! That's a nice one! Looks mighty cold up there. I'm glad I'm in the state of Washington in the mid-40s
wow let it snow have a super time together great video God bless
I'm in San Diego. The constant, relentless warmth and sunshine make this kinda good times impossible. It does rain about 10 times a year and sometimes you get a little wet.
It is so cool that Melissa is there now and you can just swing by and have lunch with her. Her dogs seem to be adjusting well to the snow with those tails wagging too.
Oh my God, I am so glad that I stumbled upon your video. WHAT A MAN, you are. This is the picture of a man, the image of what I grew up with. The men nowadays has lost this. You are hard working, loving to Melissa, never complain; I am in AWE. I could just watch this video OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. I love the snow so much. Living In Tx, you know how that goes. Who is Melissa? I thought she was your wife. I am new to your video. Please please please give us more snow vids and everyday life vids.
That snow blower looks like a one I used to own when I lived in NH an old timer in NH told me I should by the canopy for my blower and I would positively love it - now that I am the old timer I will pass it along to you if they make a canopy (it like a plastic enclosure that protects the operator) you will not regret buying one. Before I bought the canopy I used to wear a snowmobile suit!!!! After you install it you can blow in a sweatshirt and no hat and you will not come in soaking wet.
Get a kick out of the comments from people in warmer climates. A simple snowblower will do everything you can throw at it. I’am 64, born and raised in Mn. Country boys know how to survive and thrive here in the northland. I for one wouldn’t trade our weather for the heat and humidity in the south.
Agreed. Lol. Thank You.
Country Girls know how to survive in the northland too!
Pam Anderson For sure, thanks.
@@jefflink4671 Thank you Sir!
Exactly man, I would love to visit or even move up to beautiful Minnesota someday because the heat and humidity down south is MISERABLE. And I love cold weather since you could just add layers to stay comfortable and it just seems awesome to me.
Beautiful but messy! Looks like the dogs love the snow. Mt Siberian husky loves snow. The colder it is the more he loves it.
Hey Joe, We got by lucky from that storm track over here in Greenbush. They were predicting 27" at one point. Luckily, that stayed a couple of hours west of us towards the Devils Lake area. We got by with a couple of inches. But we did get the cold for a few days. Anyways, as I was watching and I heard you walking outside with that snow crunch under your boots I was thinking only the northerners would truly know that sound when it's made. Lol.
Joe just enjoys working hard! I'd rather watch him walk behind a snowblower than in a snowplow. keep up all that good work & happy new year.
Joe I’m from Alabama and I do not at all envy y’all with all that snow, down here a half inch will shut down the whole state lol. Stay safe and warm
I wish I had been lucky enough to have someone like you. You are the full package----looks, respectful, talented, smart, amazingly helpful, giving.
This is slow TV at it's best... And I mean that as a substantial compliment, Going through all of your videos now and they are a gift
Thank you for the nice comment Kent. Many more videos coming.
Left snow country in 1998 and have not been in snow since. Your video tells me I made the right decision.
Love your broadcast. Keep up the great work.
I just love the fact that your ready !! My Mom tau
ght me that be prepared .
Big fan of brining the roads prior to a winter storm.
Love it cruising in the diesel at 85 heading north. Need a 60” blower, at 28” you’ll be snow blowing until Memorial Day
Joe , you have one of everything, put a plow on the truck, we all no your not going to be snow blowing all winter
Just joined tonight. I have been watching your channel for a few months. Thank you for providing food for deers. I know they are a problem for my mother and her plants. I know they can present a problem here in North Carolina especially at night during May. I had the rare pleasure of seeing two albino deers about two years ago (May). They were crossing the road at around midnight. I came within twenty feet of them. It startled me. But it turned out positive. Though I did have a rather tragic encounter. I was driving below the speed limit one spring (around 5-6pm) and one young doe came out of nowhere and hit my tire. Unfortunately it died.
3 weeks ago one of the guys that works for me hit a deer, it caused over 6 thousand in damages to his truck. He just got it back from the body shop last week. The deer was dead instantly. I have hit 3 deer in my life with different vehicles.
I wish we had snow like that in South Texas
Joe, you should invest in a plow truck. Don’t get a wheeler plow, they won’t push the snow back when it’s banked. Snowblow time 2.5 hours and cold, snowplow time 15 minutes and warm.
That is my thought. Teach Melissa how to use the plow truck when you're not there. Enable the woman, please . LOL
I don't care what it costs i would buy a plow truck also knowing Joe he will do something to make this job much easier
ya he's got that old white Ford he could throw a old plow on.
dude doesn't go up north to make things "easier." ffs...he enjoys getting out and doing something besides getting back inside to watch football and "make more gut."
Grillin' a steak during a blizzard..........My man! That steak meal and the chops all looked
dee-lish.
Watching this video I feel so grateful....that I don't live there lol, except for when you cooked that delicious prime rib dinner.
Happy New Year Melissa and Joe from SE Washington. I hope this year brings more glimpses of Melissa and some awesome Louisiana recipes. #bestfoodever.
You are amazing Joe, grill'n in the winter.
On, I get it now. Your cooking vs Melissa's cooking... There's sufficient and then there's life-fulfilling. You're still a helluva guy,
Melissa has to be culture shocked. If us here in Louisiana ever got that kind of snow, we would close the state down until the temps reached 60 again! Dang sure wouldn't be grilling either, we would be eating gumbo. Enjoy your videos.
Remember December 2017? Snowed 2 days a couple inches and it stayed on the ground for 3 days in the parish Melissa and I are from.
Our swamp was breathtakingly beautiful! But still nothing like that. Lucky for us we have a backhoe and hubby just scraped the street and driveway but people all called in sick from work, towns around here were trying to sand the roads...it was crazy! No snow so far this winter
Wow, looks like a lot of hard work ahead for this winter. The snow looks very pretty though. Thanks for sharing. Becky from Kansas City
I thought I was the ONLY man to grill outdoor's in the winter,I do it weekly.Well done!
Good weather for hot home made soup or stew with sourdough rolls...
It’s just starting, with a driveway like that, you may be budgeting for a plow. If your thinking of a plow you will need something with a cab and heat. If you don’t want to put a plow on your truck, possibly a used Jeep. You can set the Jeep up with a plow and just use it on the property, not on the road. I hope you’re not offended, that’s a great snowblower. I got soooooo cold watching you guys use it. Thanks Joe.....Happy New Year!
Thank you for sharing Joe. My brother lives in Shakopee MN.
thanks very much for another great video joe have a very happy new year can't wait for more videos in the coming year !!
JD1023E, with bucket, belly mower, 3pt hitch for bushhog, Snowblower, tiller, small disk. I have seen them online in MN, WI and MI and other midwest areas used with low hours for 15k-16K. That machine would handle every single chore on that acreage you have. bad winter comes Mama ain't gonna like the snowblowing my man!! Green Diamond Ring.
Nippy. The blowing wind makes it extra special.
Joe your a 100% provider,even in the kitchen. People like yourself are blessed. Your a go0d family man. Wow if you could go out & buy a dad just like you,i would have spent all my money & bought a hand full of YOU! Are you or have you got a Deer camera out @ the Deer feed?
Thank you. Yes, I actually have to edit the latest feeding the deer video and get that uploaded. I have all the pictures and video clips I need for that video already in its folder.
Enjoyed your videos very much. Thanks for sharing.
Great videos, thanks for sharing.
Watching again
Wow Joe that's a lot of snow! By the time it got here in ohio, just rain, I hope Melissa is adjusting to the snow hoping she stays safe on the roads too.
I missed you guys! I haven’t been in a CZcams mood lately. Nothing but love always.
I'm in Ontario and my lane way is like yours but even bigger. With the snow we get here, I'm lucky to have a farm neighbour with a tractor and blower. He comes when the storm is over and gets it all done in 15 minutes. Too much lane way for a snow blower and hiring the neighbour is a heck of a lot cheaper than setting myself up with snow removal equipment. Works good!
That looks like a delicious meal.
The kitchen table you made looks nice and seems really sturdy. Looks like the draw fit too. Melissa looked nice in the Christmas photos, too bad she's given up on Keto. Happy New Year. 🎉 ❤🌅🌵
That table turned out great!
Thank you, cool video. I love waiting for snowstorms to come in. Only one thing missing. The woodburner in the house. That's a kickass snowblower. That's a great place you guys have.
Thank you for the deer and snow vids, I too love a snowblower and have not needed it, currently to be 50's today in Ohio lol. Getting to feel it is personal I sooo love the snow and using the snowblower. Anyway, be well and thanks for including us in the days at the house.
~~~O'''I miss the deep snow. Your homestead looks wonderful and we wish you the best .
Yeah a plow would be nice, or even a skid steer, but your are looking at $7,000 for a plow, $20,000 for a skid steer, and you can get a really nice snowblower for around $1500
Do not miss having to plug my vehicle in. Was stationed at Duluth Bomark Missile site until they closed it and then was at the Main Base. Was only at Duluth a year before I was going back overseas.
Ok well from down here the snow looks nice... always a pleasure watching your Northern Seclusion from the South.
But joe... those rib eyes!!! Man they looked awesome.. had to be Prime from all that marbling...
Oh and yes.. we have Crawfish... lol
Peace.
Awesome video Joe i plow for Isanti county finally we got snow but we didnt need the rain that came with it.
I was just down there yesterday for a few hours and everything was a skating rink once you get off the main roads. Superior Wisconsin is like that also. The warm weather later this week should help clean all that up.
Lol Joe, A snow blower is not a tool I would look forward to using. Bless you hardy cold weather fans.
I think buying a plow for that yard is the way to go
"It's warmed up to 1 degree."
HAHA
gotta love Minnesota
You have the fastest metabolism I've ever seen!
it's a lot of work to live in Minnesota, but you have a great life and you certainly eat good. It is beautiful there.
Thanks for the video. I was snowed in at my off the grid home in the mountains where my place is right on the waterfront of a gigantic lake. Weird & fascinating ice shapes appeared on the lake shore. It had been very windy and the twisted ice forms it made looked like another world. Always enjoy your videos. Your snow blower seems to work very well.
Yup, we drove around in about 4" of slush most of the day. Glad to see you guys got all the snow up north, lol.
The snow is beautiful & that steak looked delicious! I hope you all had a Merry Christmas & Happy new year!
hey brother...that storm was a blast! I was stuck in the house for 3 days! We had to hire a plow truck and they didn't plow our road for 2 days! WELCOME TO MINNESOTA....haha! But I think I'm a bit further north...ever hear of Clearbrook, MN? Anyway...the offer still stands if you ever need a fishing partner or an extra hand for building...I"m here and willing to drive....
As I have lived in the tropics sailing around the World most of my life , this is wicked stuff you are showing here . I also saw this white stuff on the big TV.
Hey Joe just thought I'd pass on a tip for when you are using your smowblower. Before you start it spray some cheap cooking oil down the shute and all over the blades of the auger. It helps the ice build up and I always use the little plastic tool to clean it out when done. Wouldn't recommend leaving the cooking spray in y'all garage it might not like the cold temperatures up there. We're getting ready for our last weekend of hunting season here in Virginia there's a chance of showers but temptures in. the 40s and 50s.idt I could hunt in subzero areas like you do. Any way happy new year's to you and your hole gang. As you say see ya the next one.
Joe and Melissia
Enjoy your videos! You stay on the go keeping up with kith and ken! At least no grass is growing under your feet! LOL!
Have a very happy happy and super blessed 2019 is my wish and prayers for ya'll!
David Oxley, Poor Joe doesn't get a break... mowing all summer, snow blowing all winter! Thank God I live in Arizona! 💜🌞🌵
Thank you for sharing. The snow is so pretty. We hardly ever get that much snow here in Tennessee. Have a great 2019.
Holy moly. Regular gas is only $1.78 there (at the Kwik Trip)!! I wish I had those prices! The snow was beautiful. Watching you drive in the snow made me a nervous wreck. I know it is second nature to you and you are used to it. I'm a wimp when it comes to driving in snow. All I have here is mud, mud, and more mud. Your Fred Flintstone steaks looked delicious and I loved the crispy char you got on the potatoes. Yum.
Happy New Year to you and Melissa and all your furbabies!
Happy New year to you and your family Joe. All the best in your new home with Melissa
Loved the video. Dave from England UK
Love your property. Beautiful table in the kitchen to.
Your kitchen island looks great. Happy New Year...
Snow blowers are a great asset to have. The house property is large would it be a better option to maybe find a plow for the front of your truck and plow that area would go a lot quicker than snow blowing or find a tractor to do that as well?
Hey.. Joe how's the family and Melissa..hope new-year has lots of projects awaiting on you.. I mean At work and at the cabin.
Question? Would it be a bad idea.. For now to add a electrical wire and a smaller watt led bulb say 8w to the wood shed.. Attaching it to the backdoor ekectrical wire outlet..it don't need to be on all the time.. Just to see where is what at night.. And it's snowing. I know ur thinking of taking the woodshed down.. eventually..But for now the light would be kinda nice, and another outdoor spot light by the 5th wheel shining onto the driveway to the road or in shining towards the 1st garage.
Stay safe..stay warm.. God bless
It's so nice to see how you and Melissa settling in to married life. She sure does love you to move from a tropical climate to the Arctic. I have done boyfriends for a lot less of the geography
We in Northeastern Ontario Canada got 5" that day, 0 degrees F, but woke up to -45 degrees F, that was a shocker to my system.
I like the way you show the life style that you live up there. It is not all peaches and cream but it is the way things are and it is what you make of it that counts. I do think a plow might be a good investment as you already have a truck that it could be mounted on.I use a blower but only have about 1/3 as much to clear as you. Keep up the good videos.
Supper looks great!
Superb! - gonna get some hot coffee and and an ice bun and bunker down to enjoy this!
You couldn't give me that dang place!! Love the South!!
Enjoyed. The snow is pretty to look at, but I'll continue to live in Texas.
Remember that when your feels like temperature is 125 degrees this summer. Haha.
Love your potatoes. Man after my own heart. You might like to try sprinkling a little cornmeal on top to add a little crunch to the potatoes.
Happy New Year Joe and Melissa. 🥳🎊🎉🎈🥰Love all your videos ! Keep warm and safe on those roads ☺️😊
Joe I swear no matter what, you my friend will always be EATING GOOD 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I get hungry every time I watch your videos 🍺🍽 . It’s 60 degrees in Georgia and your blowing snow ❄️. I just wish we would get some snow ❄️ ok have a good one 🇺🇸Friend from Georgia 🇺🇸
I love to snow blow! Did Melissa like it? Having an electric start is great.
Joe spray your rubber seals on your truck doors with Pam or Wd-40 and they won't stick.
Also spray white vinegar (full strength) from a spray bottle onto your windshield BEFORE it snows. It will prevent your glass from icing over! And the snow should slide off! Use only the WHITE vinegar--you can buy the gallon size for extra savings. I use that here in eastern WA and works every time for me. Esp when rain turns into ice overnight.
@@williedaniels3882 Man there are SOOOOO many reasons to always have a gallon of white vinegar on hand, that's a new one and I will keep it in mind Thanks.
Time to buy a plow. I snow blow my driveway in Maine in about 30 min and I wait till it stops snowing. Any longer time spent with a blower is time to think plowing. 👍🏻
Joe you should bring the old truck up and put a plow on it, that's a LOT for a snow blower to handle.
We had about 7 inches here in South Carolina two weeks ago. That is not normal for us. I love to see the snow but I'm glad we don't get it like y'all do. Stay warm Joe and Happy New Year!
I don't know Joe slug lines a lot of work she might have been better with a quad with a big plow plus you could use it at the tent LOL keep them coming out places looking great love it
We will for sure upgrade our snow removal system in the future. It all takes money.
Have a good New Year!
