- Having plans and goals is great, but I find its best to stay flexible because sometimes things don't go the way you planned.

It's better to do something rather than sit around at home, which is why I divide my time between house and caravan, the vintage Airstream which took over a decade to source and bring together its awning, but also a little tech besides. Likewise I see you chilling back doing the things you need to do, outside of your workshop. These tasks even if they don't go as we'd planned, bring a fresh aspect that could make us do something a lot different, only with more satisfying results. I have always appreciated your filming, and agree that auto-focus is an utter pain. 😉
Our autumn-to-winter days become shorter. But that's alright. We plan around our ever-darkening evenings to light the fire earlier, get a brew on, prepare dinner and while it's stewing, sit back and watch the logs burn slowly in the grate. Hedge my boyfriend opens walnut shells wholly with an artful twist of his SAK's screwdriver - who would have thought it? 😄 So we raise our glasses to you and enjoy a a deep red Pinot Noir to embrace the chill. Have a lovely New Year. And a safe and healthy one, too. Peace and blessing to you and Janet, ~Wendi 🌻🌻🌻
Mick said it best, 'you get what you need'. We might add 'done'. Guard your health, all else, is details.
Plan in one day projects, publish in the dreaded SHORTS format, we will be here.
John, May I add a couple of other perspectives. Some people have no projects and just sit around bored and unhappy all the time. Maybe better to have too many projects and just be frustrated at not being able to do as much as you'd like on some of them. Then, you have your health. You can look forward to being able to go after projects next year. For some, the realization sets in that health issues are never going to allow doing the projects that you want to do. There may not be a next year. Your glass, my friend, is half full. BTW, no such thing as too many tools.
That’s it John so much work and delay in the organization of a project and the bright side is you got more done on it this year then you did last year. 🎉
I agree with you you need more tools , can never have enough tools 👍
The drone view was awesome
I love the mountains, the view, the fresh cold air. I wish i could live there too. But it´s a long way from Germany...😁
4:53 glad to see that I'm not the only one that has this problem, tea bag tag not staying put.😅
Biggest shock moving back north from florida: the short daylight hours in winter, unbelievably short.
John, miss ya. You're awesome.
I understand completely John, there never seems to be quite enough time...
Such a serene vibe in your videos, your narration style is so natural and you got some serious cinematography skills:)
Thank you so much 😃
I so want one of those vehicles… I have ABSOLUTLY no reason to have one.. but I do want one
Need is so overrated
Dude - I want one too. ;-) Every guy out here wants John's all-terrain boogey tank! He did a video on it once... I forget what it's called...
Its a Cushman Trackster
Lack of time just also seems to be a common symptom of being a father 😅. The last saying of most of your videos apply very avidly to a myriad of us "hope you have to time to make it to your shop". I know Im a nobody, but another nobody that has been positively affected by all your lessons. Id say your a verry successful teacher and for this I thank you.
I know how you feel. Time is a precious commodity. Have a Merry Christmas John and the Misses.
Merry Christmas
I learned quick that when you have a homestead or ranch your work is never really done but you always get alot done. Just don't forget the honey do's for the wifey happy wife happy life. Godbless you John and have merry Christmas much love from arkansas.
Merry Christmas
Yes, more tools is always the answer, just think of how much fuel, time, and personal energy will be saved by not all that running forth and back!
Merry Christmas to you and Janet, looks like you'll have a White Christmas!
As for all the projects, well, they are called "roundtuits", LOL. You'll eventually get them done. It's always good to have some projects in the hopper so's you don't get bored!!
Merry Christmas
Morning Mr John. Never enough time for the tasks at hand surely seems to be an inevitable truth.
Blessings to you
Crawford out 🙏🏻🔥⚒️🧙🏼♂️
Hey. How doing??
@@gurvinderkaur6996 morning young lady. I'm well, and you? Good to hear from you. Blessings abundant 🙏🏻🔥⚒️🧙🏼♂️
Never be sorry for being busy. You got a lot done this year, and I hope you and the missus enjoy the holiday season.
Merry Christmas Sir.
Another excellent video.
Merry Christmas
Mornin John, while we don't always get what we wanted to do done, there's always something that needed to be done. LOL Here's to next summer, Cheers 🍻
John, your videos are getting better. Enjoy watching your projects! Merry Christmas!
Thank you. Merry Christmas
Relaxing vid for the morning coffee as I look out upon a similar view. Hope you have a good holiday season John!
Same to you
I would love a walkaround that little tank. It looks like fun.
Here is a video on the Trackster from a few years ago. czcams.com/video/2-mk_soQtlo/video.htmlsi=RemHyWMaks3M7C2K
Hello sir. Never enough time to complete tasks. I agree. Got ur Christmas tree up??
Very beautifully filmed and I love the sound of walking in the snow and stirring the coffee. I then really experience my presence in the setting. The execution of plans can never catch up with the creator. Thanks for your video.
Time is the thing we dont have enough of… And in Norway we have the same winter time short days.
Wish you a merry Christmas John🎄
Merry Christmas Stian
I cant wait to retire in 8 years and then get really busy! 😂. Merry Christmas John!
Merry Christmas
i watched the video while drinking tea. it was like being there with my blacksmith Master Switzer
John. You've done a lot. The materials are there.the cabin will last. Know all you need is the right timing. I see you have the love. The cabin is going to be a great place for you and your wife. God bless
Thanks for taking us along. Some of us are waiting for health improvements, and you are an inspiration!!
Good morning
Morning
lol, I’ve been restoring a vintage truck for over 10 years. I feel your pain. Did someone make that woven backpack at John C. Campbell folk school?
I purchased that from someone I found ion Instagram.
Just getting the parts in the right place to use is progress.
I'm still hunting for land to build my own little cabin, so you're getting further along than me. These videos are always nice and help give me ideas about my own future cabin adventure.
I am still envious and atill want my own Trackster! Even if you didn't get the cabin done, you clearly still have much beauty to observe from the site. Next year!
Your cabin reservation, is like many of my projects. The balancing of Time, procuring materials, Money, and weather. My grand intentions are dampened by in-completed , until Next Year.
I have enjoyed your superb videos. My favorite, i always look to see if a new one is posted. Merry Christmas & Happy New Years.
Merry Christmas
I understand how time flies by. I also have projects that are way behind. Unfortunately life happens and I have to readjust. Hope things work out for you. Keep up the good work and God bless
You are not defeated. Sounds like a strategic pause on the assault.
Thats a great way to look at it.
Nice video and congratulations on a beautiful 2023. You're one of the most courageous videographers out here. Thanks John Love you and your family out here in Calif
I can certainly relate to time getting away from you, i had a lot of plans for this summer and didn't get nearly all of them done, well there's always next year, hopefully we'll be able to do a little during the winter. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Merry Christmas
..it looks like you may need a sled if you are going to haul many more tools back and forth...
Yeah, you need more tools. 😊
Está tudo bem em adiar um projeto para poder fazer melhor no futuro e esta foi uma decisão sábia. Ainda espero ver você tomando um café com uma bela fatia de pão caseiro nesta cabana pronta... mas este chá também já foi muito bom! Obrigado pelas imagens maravilhosas do seu lugar!
Glad you enjoyed it
Count your blessings John and merry Christmas . Thank you for the videos you make for us. I hope 2024 exceeds all of your expectations. ✌️
Same to you!
I was supposed to insulate my workshop and put up plywood on the inside this summer, so I could work in there this winter without freezing. Once again, this did not get done.
I have been hoping to insulate my shop for so long its become more of a running joke than a plan. Best of luck
@@JohnSwitzer I at least have all the materials to insulate and panel the ceiling purchased and standing in the way, mocking me each time I walk past, so that should provide some motivation! 😂
🤣@@Vikingwerk
Selamat malam
Think you have to much fun on that tracked vehicle, I'm gonna have to confiscate it, just send it to me.😂😂😂
