  • This is the less enjoyable part of fall - rainy season. The leaves are falling fast now, with cold night temperatures, rain and high winds and I have to choose my work projects depending on the weather.

    It's crazy how a situation/person can attempt to put a whole damper on your life and hard work only to turn everything around and make your life and achievements even more wonderful. I know it's been said over and over, but you truly are an inspiration to us all, and thanks for the continuing and awesome journey.

    Nothing better than an early morning on my day off, with a cup of coffee and to see you've got a new video up. I can't wait to see the new outdoor kitchen and solar. Beautiful work sir!!!! You should be proud.

    Not sure if your wife would be up for it, but I'd love to watch her (even without narration) do food preservation, just as much as I enjoy seeing you build.

    This place is going to be a real home .. warm and cozy .. and I truly hope that there will be no neighbours around for the next 200 yrs at least ✌

    Next time try to put your camera in a way we can see you. All we can see is black. Good thing we can hear your voice.

    I remember when you polled the channel about what your content should be. I love the main channel, I love seeing the progress. But explaining what you're doing while you're doing it? That's just the best. A few weeks ago some of that slipped into the main channel and it was magnificent.

    the roof is complete.. the rest is gravy.

    So how do you like the sound of your metal roof with the rain. Ours is very soothing and lures you to sleep.

    Thanks Shawn, you've been an inspiration to me when I was working on my square log cabin and built the roof structure alone this summer. Someone else on another channel said the same about you, sometimes building alone is difficult and you just want to give up.

    You certainly have a busy time ahead but it will be nice to work in the warm. Take care, be safe. ❤️ Dorset, UK

    Sounds like you have your work cut out for you?!!! A true master craftsman sir! Real inspirational to those of us who watch you!! God Bless you and your family!

    As I look over your shoulder, at the door, with the open space around it, I am sitting here at 75 F in my jacket (amazing how age makes temperatures feel less) listening to your rain and getting the shivers. AND still envying you and your place there. I really admire what you are doing Shawn. I am kinda hanging on your coat tails and enjoying it all. Thank you for your great narratives and superb videography. I am really enjoying this.

    A lot of work yet to do, but you've accomplished so much this year already. 2023 might be your best year yet.

    Mr. James it's amazing in a large scale the things you got done this year but yet at no surprise you lay out a list that seems to never end lol 😂 love your videos!

    Glad to hear you are going to beat the real cold weather. I noticed you really quickened your pace recently. Ready for winter!
