We attempt to stay one step ahead of the cold season and replenish our firewood stash for next year. With wood heat being the primary source of heat for our cabin this is a very important task. Often times days spent outdoors in winter are not only productive but also enjoyable. Eric builds an insulated box that can be moved on skids for the generator.

I was wondering if you could recommend some channels similar to yours. I enjoy the type of content you put out and want more of it. Ive already binged on all your content . Loveโค you guys. Your my favorite.
Cute bird feeder !
Eric and Arielle- thanks for all you do, I really appreciate your channel! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your wonderful dogs! (And Pepper)
I miss the old firewood shed I remember watching y'all build it
Beautiful country! Thank you for sharing. Looks like ya'll love splitting woods.My late husband loved splitting wood.
I love watching your cooking and so cute that your cat has some entertainment!
Thank you for Sharing. Amazing vidรฉo ! Pozz svima ot sefer I marija. Francija
It seems you just put a tv for your cat ๐ she's going to be so happy
Love seeing those hugs i hope you two have many many many more years of love and happiness together
Amazing opening sequence!!
A little โcat o visionโ to keep her from the winter blues. โค
Whenever I've had to run a generator in Texas is after a hurricane or summer storm, and the ambient temperatures have been well above 91. Never had any issues. So likely fine there.
The one thing that scares me the most about Alaska.
Is not:
Grizzly bears
Moose
The weather
Earthquake
But is
The state bird of Alaska mosquitoes .
Hey, suppose a bug zapper would put a slight dent into them in your area or keeping bats . You are keeping bees right now have you ever considered keeping bats for mosquito control?
I miss the old SLA. I still watch the content but the beginning was my favorite time, not a ton of fancy stuff and made it seem like anyone could do it.
Have you thought about getting a heated bed for your cat to enjoy the window? I just bought one from Chewy for my cat and it'll be here Thursday I'm excited for my cat to try it out. I hope he likes it.
Bucket list. I would LOVE to see the northern lights. I am 59 years old.
Martha Stewart has nothing on you, in fact your meals tempt ,me more than anything fancy she does.
I just love your firewood videos, they are so satisfying to watch ๐
Amazing work โค
No bs, just good content. Thanks, really enjoy your channel. You guys are in the firewood business, time for a log splitter???!
First love your vidos just spent the last few monthe catching up via your playlist ( you have sadly missed a few videos on there). Now i have two questions. 1th what happend to the gigantic Geni you bought as a back up for the solar? 2nd how many chickens do you have?
I hope both of you are growing some trees to replace the ones that hv been cut
Iโm out of the loop have you guys moved , Iโve been saving your videos and canโt work out where u at xx
I love your videos and your photography style Iโm always impressed what you do my dad heated with wood mostly oak and long time just him and mom
Could you please tell me what is in your chicken feed, I know you make your own.
Your chickens always look so healthy and I want my chickens to look good too.
Thank you in advance for your help โค
I just wanted to say i enjoy watching your videos and how much your husband looks like Micheal Ansara the actor
My husband know how much I love your channel and for tonight on hannukah he gave me your 2024 calendar. What an awesome gift!
You captured a face in the lake at the beginning of this video…cool
Do you have a link to that window bird feeder?
Wonderful winter fun, you two! I'm loving that you're taking care of all the birds – I tend not to do stuff like that – usually I have plants that survive neglect becuase I don't always remember to water to a schedule – my cat survives just fine, tho ๐ It's fun seeing the projects moving along ๐
Footage is absolutely beautiful ๐ป and the music matches it perfectly. What a life you both have. Wishing you both and fur babies a very Merry Christmas and @ Joyeaux Noel โค
โค๐ฅถI have so many thoughts! First of all, yโall should get an award for filmmaking! ๐๐ฅItโs so beautiful! ๐๐ผ๐ตโ๐ซSecond, I canโt believe itโs going to get a lot colder there!๐ฑAre yโall having a hard time adjusting to that much cold weather? Your other home stead seemed a bit warmer. I just canโt imagine being out in that kind of coldness! Arielโs hair was even frozen at one point!๐ณ๐ตโ๐ซBut, yโall always stay positive and get work done!๐๐ผI love seeing how creative you two are! Lastly, I look so forward to seeing yโall garden again! You cook with so many veggies! ๐
โคGod bless!๐๐ผ๐๏ธ๐
Congratulations, you two. What a blessing to have all that meat. Nothing better than moose. The program to donate downed animals for meat is such a great program. Sorry for the moose but so glad the meat was not wasted.
Za duลผo gadacie a maลo pracy
man these guys are the coolest
That was so cute the little bird feeders, kitty's entertaining. โค๐โโฌ๐ฆ
I had an old 76 Ford that I could put into 2w low . It was great for creeping around in the hills without burning 4w gas . Lugged all over the place .
I'm sure somebody's probably already told you firewood is great, it warms you twice once while you're splitting it and once when you put it in the stove.
And will you put a heavy rock on the lid to the generator…how will you keep the lid on in the storms that will come? And I LOVE the bird feeders!!!
Love your guys you have it going on. I tell everyone I know about you guys. Thank you!
I love the cat at the end of your video. J'adore !! Merci pour ce que vous faites.
I have never been where the temp was lower than 14 degrees (that was temporary). I do know the body adjusts, but I cannot fathom working in 0 degree weather! Our winter temps can get in the twenties and teens, but itโs usually at night and for a few nights at a time.
you are incredible!!!!
