 the day off the weekend come on guys in the yard let's go in the yard come on come on no cheating come on now Frank you always try this go in the yard oh man no peeing on my barbecue so good morning everybody good Saturday morning and look at it it's gonna be a good day I'm planning on going to the land today gathering some firewood stalking up a little bit you know when we installed this air conditioner a lot of you including our family member said that we should probably build a little fence around it here's that the dogs don't do their business on it and we agree with you that's a great idea we would like to do it but so far we've been very lucky the dogs don't even want to go anywhere near it really I don't think they like it much I mean they probably don't understand what it does for them they would like it if they understood that but no they never never go around here that's all the firewood I've got left they naturally like to go to the back usually behind the sheds further away from the house I think they understand that we don't like them doing that anywhere near the house head note to the land I was going to take the big guys with me but just remembered Britt reminded me just before I left she messes me from work they haven't gotten their tick medication yet their wood ticks what is this little pill sort of like a treat that they get and it protects them from tick bites and with West Nile being around here we really don't want to risk it with our dogs and it's hard to find all the ticks in especially Chevy's big fluffy fluffy coat so what it does is this medicine goes into their system and any tick that bites them for the next few months just dies and falls off it was really really nice and handy I just don't want to bring them there now before they get that have a bunch of tick slats on them we don't find them then a few days later it's too late it's got a big subwoofer in the line up here now so kind of him to share his music with all of us good thing we all have the exact same taste in gangster rap oh he's cool too oh wish I was that cool and have you ever noticed this I have to admit I used to do the same thing when I was a teenager until I grew up alright when I was still a child I would have to roll my windows down on a nice sunny day like this all the time all the way down all the windows down and just crank the music that I'm listening to crank it so that everybody else could see how cool I was and hear the music that I'm listening to those are cooler days man cooler days now I'm just an old guy doesn't want to volume up too high on the stereo has the windows up so that the air conditioning doesn't get out slowly rolling down the road doing the speed limit using his turn signals not having his high beams on in traffic man I'm a boring guy I am boring kind of sad that I couldn't take the big guys with me thought it'd be a lot of fun and it'd be good to get them some exercise but their health comes first right one second could I get a large coffee with two cream and a shot of espresso in it that's it super duper however I have grown past the phase of having my windows down with the crank cranked music and subwoofers that you know vibrate the ground a mile away they're cool to listen to I have nothing against those kind of stereos they're awesome I love it I just it kind of bugs me when you're in traffic nobody else wants to listen to that nobody else but whatever if you're on the highway crank her up give her rattle your license plate right off I don't care I have a Tim Cardo's here there we go right here mm-hmm so last time we were working out here was a little bit wetter yet but looks like it's all dried up which is good that means we got high land and there's no low land here otherwise it would still be pulled up good my dad made me a new dolly pad for that thank you very much works great and got the slide-outs all popped out already ready to ready to go we got the trailer up on wood here so it's not gonna sink in you can see the wood has already sunk in a little bit so imagine how far this trailer would be sunk in these tires would be into the axles already if I hadn't done that or it could have been anyways who knows and then it's the same thing over here on this side good good good and she's all leveled out so now I'm gonna see the air conditioner can be powered by this thing and get to some mowing I got my chainsaw up there one of these days we're gonna get a skid steer yet but for now I'm gonna start doing as much as we can to clear this all down oh I can't wait till this is actually home all right very important to have air conditioning here I'm already cooking and it's only plus 10 today that's what 70s 765 Fahrenheit no I don't know what that is in Fahrenheit no it's not too warm yet but it feels hot so I can just imagine once it gets to plus 30 and above you know up to about 100 Fahrenheit it's going to it's gonna be cooking here so I've got the power and the extension cord all the way out here this isn't where I'm always gonna have this thing but for the sake of experimenting right now I'm gonna plug this thing in I already got this all warmed up just shut it off so I could talk to you guys now plug this in here like that I'm gonna turn her on see what we get out of it 4,000 peak watts and 3500 running watts I thought it was 3,000 35 even better let's check the lights first lights are working obviously they're just LED lights I mean that should work lights lights interior here we go we have lights now for the big test the air conditioning set it to cool the fans running set it down 65k the AC just kicked on post place needs a cleaning we haven't had a chance to clean it the spring yet Brit hasn't even been here yet and I haven't haven't gotten around to it but yeah that's air conditioning okay now let's shut the door here you can hardly hear that thing let's shut this fan off this air conditioner off so it's a little bit of ambient noise back there but I'm gonna move that generator further away from the camper so that it's not noisy in here that's not bad not too bad right sort of hear it out there cool this place down let's see what else we can get this generator to do I want to be able to hear if it's struggling at all so I'm gonna open this door again final how okay I'm going to turn on the fridge okay the fridge can also run on propane but we have it set on electric right now in the freezer the only thing is we probably won't be able to use this anyways because it takes about 24 hours for the fridge and freezer to cool down and I'm not gonna leave that thing running for 24 hours unless we're actually staying here for a weekend maybe in that case it'll run for a majority I don't think so okay so the fridge is on lights are on let's try the microwave this is the big one this is the big test so nothing's in there just make sure put it for like 20 seconds and go is this thing struggling at all no it's it's handling it just fine it's got the AC running it's got the microwave going it's got the fridge and freezer running so now we can make food here and either microwave it or we can use the propane use the stove the lights the water pump will work however we don't have water here yet so that's a problem we're gonna have to work out as the lady is going to need to use the bathroom I can use the woods she's going to need a bathroom I'll figure something out yeah we're gonna leave this running while we're working out here see we can cool this place off nice let's go cut some wood for the water situation what I'm thinking I'm probably gonna do is we're just gonna bring bottled water here just drink bottled water until we dig a well I don't want to completely get the water flowing in here and then have to re-winterize it next winter if we're not gonna use it that much for the toilet maybe we can rent a porta-potties or I mean we can still use the septic we'll just have to flush it down with water maybe take some tap water from home and if you have to go to the bathroom rinse it down with tap water that we brought along I don't know that's that's problems for another day one problem at a time son is slowly headed to the west west horizon over there but we're making some progress here cleared this little area he's cutting down the bushes cleaning them up and mowing it down I think I'm gonna turn that into my little bush more and this is working pretty good I may not even get a skid steer this year then to level this all I may just clear it up like this is the best I can the only problem is we've got all these stumps from the bushes that's what I'd like to dig up with the skid steer but maybe we don't need that this year maybe I can just use that more there as my bushwhacker and get a new push more for the house at home same price is renting a skid steer you know we get an extra mole road but then I'm gonna do this ourselves I don't know stuff to think about see how much how much I can get done like this we just had this area cleared before right my pickup was in pretty much today I got all of this cleared out and into there the only problem I've got here is these stumps where these bushes were I'd have to get the skid steer in to dig those out or we'll find a whole bunch of clean fill somewhere and we'll just cover it all with clean fill once we have everything cleared because then we know where the fill goes right so if I can clear this all without the skid steer organize it or get organized then I should be able to just find some clean fill somewhere hopefully I can find some at a good price get it shipped here dumped here then I'll rent a skid steer level it all out angle it properly for drainage and stuff and I should bury all this well that's an idea I don't I'd love to hear your ideas down below in the comment section what do you think I should do with this should I scrape a layer of dirt off of this along with the roots of all of these bushes or should I just cover them up with fill and then let grass grow on top of that let me know down below what would you do you probably have more experience doing this than I do this is my first time doing all of this I don't know idea what I'm doing but I'm gonna figure it out I might not know what I'm doing but I'll figure it out but I don't mind if you want to help a little bit and give me some advice I bet you there's a few of you watching right now that are landscapers maybe you've already built those maybe you've cleared bush like this before and you know the best way to do it let me know give me an option other than just hire somebody that's the easy option that's the easy answer just hire someone to do it I'd like ways to do it without hiring someone how can I do this myself we'll take one last look at it and this was just a half an afternoon's work only left home at 330 and 630 now so it's been three hours including the drive here all that to do yet but from here to there is clear decide from all of these like these roots and stuff so I need to find a way of just like shaving them down grinding them down I don't know I'll look in the comment section I'm sure there are plenty of you out there around the world with some good ideas we made a lot of progress of the land and the rest of the weekend we made some progress here show you from the area here oh can't really see it we got our patio set out here now already for summer we've got things a little bit more organized in here we'll help we've got this whole room completely reorganized and look at all the space we have in here now I had realized that this vent is our intake for our furnace and for the fan and that was blocked by that bookshelf it was in front of there so it wasn't circulating the air in here properly so we got this cleared away now but the bed in the corner here my old duck dynasty blanket on there that's the guest bed and then my workstation right there and I also brought the treadmill inside I'll show you that another day it's just living in there right now but it's on the phone I believe you know let's go over here right there so that's where our dehumidifier used to be now we got this back here which we don't always have running but when it does get high this house has had some issues with humidity in here but that's changing as it's getting warmer outside we can just open the windows and let the humidity out but you know in the humid days we got to have this running here and so this actually sucks the air from the whole house it's such a small house and then it blows the air down here circulating the air as well trying to get good circulation in the house and get the air moving a little bit so we don't any stale air that's why I leave my closet's open the closet here this is my closet Brits is in our room leave that open so that everything can circulate and we don't get any stale staleness I'm really tired right now though it's Sunday when I'm filming this last little end clip I hope you guys had a great weekend it's back to work tomorrow for me bright and early and guess what it's supposed to snow what did I do seven to 12 centimeters of snow and for those Americans out there that's probably about six inches how much is 12 centimeters 12 centimeters is well 30 centimeters is a foot so 12 centimeters is just less than half a foot so let's say four to five inches so let's say two to five inches we're supposed to get tomorrow it's April 12th tomorrow and it's supposed to snow the next couple of days after that yet this is another one of those crazy weather systems that Alberta and their southern buddies Montana are sending our way thanks guys we don't appreciate it but we are polite here and want to say thank you very much for sharing at least you're not being selfish there's that right on that note tune in tomorrow to see me drive trucks in the snow in the middle of April all right it's gonna be fun though we're gonna make it fun right it's gonna be a good day either way we're gonna make it a good day we just got to figure out how
