Will you keep the original bed on the 69 Ford or will you use the flatbed on the build? 🛻🛠🤔 I already know you are frame swapping to the newer model frame and power train, but was curious about the bed you would use.🛠🛻👍
’ll bet that Heath is well aware that the hydraulics leak and that the excavator has a few loose pivot pins. He has other things that require his attention first but he almost certainly intends to tackle everything else on his list as soon as he gets “a round tuit!” 😜
Hay you could build a carport right by where the old LP tank had been. Have a covered walkway to the house. Cedar could park the Jeep there and the firewood would be alot closer to the house. Yes that is the most wood I have seen you have stacked and ready for winter! Stay safe and warm. God bless and protect.!
These are the Recessions I remember that effected my life. Early 80's, early 90's, 2001, The Great Recession of 2008 and the one that has just started. I was born in 1964 and graduated from High School in 1982. Great video, thanks for sharing, Russ from Oregon.
Also, the only thing I would change about your videos would be the body mounted cameras, when you were blowing after the wood stacking I got motion sick. 😂😂😂 But I jus look away so carry on, I really enjoy your videos so thank you and God Bless you all 🙏
As someone who heated with coal and wood in the mountains of Pennsylvania, I have noticed that you always seem to wait until the last minute to gather, cut, stack, and season your family's wood. We had a huge pile of processed and stacked wood near the house - half was from the current year requiring curing, and half was dried and ready to go for the current year. The 1000 gal. propane tank was filled just in case the propane boiler was needed. The coal bin had plenty of coal in it.
Hi is being"prepared" 😆😆😆 Would love people stop believing this end of the world thing. Just put away your social media and start reading the newspaper and watch the news.
The kids are growing up unbelievably fast. I also wasn't expecting to see snow already. Good job on the firewood, it looks like it should last you for the winter
Your son was amazing how he accelerated when he saw the Goal line. The determination on his face looked just like you. I have seen it many times on you 👍
Enjoy and look forward to your video. I enjoy listening to you talk. Health and Cedar you work so great together. Love watching your family grow up. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
I am 58 & my dad was born in 1921 and he told me about the depression & i dont think that we have ever seen one in my life time butwhat is going on & what we will see will be lot worse then a depression we are heading for a complete devastation of the world but guess we will have to see but some where something has to give thats for sure good luck & god bless you & yours
Thank you for keeping your vedios fun and interesting. Other vedio programmers do little content and kick the can down the road, with little to no real content, or of interest to us. So "Thank you" and your "lovely Wife" for allowing us into your lives. As too, for so much of your wisdom you share of the past, present, and future that truly hits home. My Dad, as a little boy went through the Depression, and what he took away from his first hand experience was, "Prepare for the 'Worst", and Hope for the best"! Again, thank you for sharing your life with us all, and too, we'll see you next Sunday, God willing!!!
A great video demonstrating the effort of preparing for the future. I feel that America is in a deficit of preparation for hard times. My father snd mother were kids through the depression. Their farms fed them. The rode or drove horses to school. My father was barefeet all summer. Shoes were saved for school and church. We grew up the same way, school clothes vs. farm clothes. This is make believe for most Americans, but mot for thousands of children sent to the midwest to be raised and fed by farmers. This time is coming again. I hope ge farmers kerp some grain in their bins for tough times. Thanks for a great video. Watch out with your deer experiment. I have seen big elk farms go totally bust in Alberta. Don't want you to suffer the same. Thanks for the video.
Okay I feel much better now that you got the wood stacked LOL I always enjoy the positive message dabbled in with some Pearls of Wisdom it is refreshing it appears in your world Common Sense is a little more common
As always Heath and Cedar I enjoyed this week’s episode and thank you for letting me watch as well as sharing. I completely agree with your message about being prepared for whatever is ahead. The future is what you make of it. I have been blessed to have dealt with very real health challenges this year and still moved forward. I choose to be happy and prepared as you do. I promise to attack with a smile and strong back. I will share as I go when appropriate. Blessings to you all
Reid when we lived in Va we had an outside wood stove and one of the great features was that all you needed to supply wood for the winter was 10 acres of hard woods to supply the stove for its life time of winters. You all having 80 acres of land should supply a life time of firewood.
Reliable sources, of which I do not have possession of, note that mature woodlots can provide approximately one cord of wood per acre of standing dead and deadfall. Your situation sounds like it was very accurate.
FYI: Reid is his younger son, Heath is is name. As for firewood: Trees grower faster in VA climate & considerably slower in Northern Idaho where Red Poppy ranch is located.
I must say I really enjoy seeing the changing seasons with the colorful leafs and making of firewood. Where I live the seasons don't really change and we don't have HVAC or a need to burn firewood. But I pleasantly remember the burning fireplaces of my childhood
Love your comments on your approach to paying attention to world events/preparing and keeping all that in perspective. Good balance in my opinion. Keep up the great work!
Heath, one thing you could consider would be a small wood stove on the 2nd floor of the shop in the "living room" area as a backup heat. Instead or going through the roof, maybe the pipe could go through the wall, then up, like they do in UP Michigan or Canada?
watching you work over the years I must say you are a very interesting person that don't back down from any project or problem and have a way to solve it. Thanks for taking the time to post what you do.
As we enter the change of seasons it's good to prepare. We spent this week getting ready for the colder weather that started today. Didn't get everything done be we have a decent two day window next week to get the rest of the items checked off our list. This week had two meals from the pantry, home canned beef with canned potatoes for a quick stew like meal. Another night was Rice A Roni with a can of home canned chicken. I canned peaches, pears, applesauce, cherries and blueberries this year to help feed new grandchild. Started up our woodstove this weekend. LOVE woodfire heat. Blessings to you and your family.
Both my parents were kids in The Great Depression. We've not seen anything that bad since. Put up about twice what you think you need. You can always trade what you have for what you need.
what a great and peaceful place to live and keep the family safe, if ye are prepared ye shall not fear......,, no city crime, no gang bangers, no "homeless criminals", no drive by shootings, no "red burn days", no annoying sirens day and night.....How blessed you are!
It’s just amazing how much Reed is a carbon copy of his dad. Heath actually has a Mini Me. What a blessing it would be for him to be like his dad. Reed has an excellent blueprint to follow.
I think you would benefit greatly with some dividing walls in your lumber pile. It would allow you to have different stages of wood split/unsplit/cured/wet.
What's funny is that it took me over 2 years to give away 2 cords of post oak firewood here in TX. I even offered to deliver it and it took that long to get rid of it. Here a fireplace is a hole in the house that hot air goes out in the winter and cold air goes out in the summer. I have had a fireplace here in another house and will never have one again. Stoves are not common here but much better than a fireplace. We were 100* a month ago here and this morning it was 36 26 wind chill and lows in the 20s tomorrow. We bypassed all the nice weather as usual.
Thanks ethan and cedar and kids for taking time out to film you work and family ❤ I look forward to every episode thankyou for everything God bless all of you ❤ in Jesus name xxx England 🏴
Time to add a tandem axle dump trailer to the fleet, that old wood trailer works but a dump trailer would be a whole lot easier and you will use it a lot more.
Heath I believe we qre in for another great depression but many won't survive it like yours and my grandparents, ( mine were Italian and Swedish immigrants.) My grandfather on my Dads side of the family dates back to the original 3 ships he married a 2nd generation swedish woman. I'm 65 and really fear for this great country. This country in 200 years has transformed and made the ENTIRE GLOBE, a better place even though many that we help hate us!!
Since you already have solar power, wouldn’t a heat pump give you basically free heating and cooling? If you didn’t want to run ductwork, you could install several mini-splits, which we did in a house.
Amen brother...my parents both lived through the depression and World War II. My brothers and sisters got a healthly dose of prepadareness when we grew up. Great messaging as always. All the best to you and your family, and keep on keeping on.
I’ve been away for awhile and I am glad to catch up on watching videos. I am amazed at the progress since I’ve been away. You and your family are an inspiration I hope to soon achieve for my family and I. Thank you RPR, it feels good to be back watching again.
I have to agree with a previous post the kids are growing soooo fast I remember with our 5 there were certain times when they would have growing sprees and the transition was soon to be complete, and boom there you have it adults almost. And then the inevitable spouses and grand baby’s it’s a wonderful thing and I agree the future is bright by what you make it.
Oh. Gotta love Reed making a touchdown. Nice. Gravel looks good. Lots of luck for this winter. Looking forward to those videos. God Bless You All. Keep going.
We built a bit of a guillotine at the bottom of a 6ft long 20” bit of heavy wall pipe. It cuts accross the log and splits the cut-off in half in one operation, and it’s built to mount on either a skid-steer, or on the quick-attach for our excavator. You scoop up a log, stand it up over your wood pile or trailer, and just cycle the hydraulics. Cut, split, and piled in a hurry. We have some work to do on the cutters, as it can do a bit more crushing than splitting at the moment, but it’s a work in progress.
You have done so much this summer, it never ceases to amaze me what you accomplish. I understand and I hear you in regards to our current situation in the world. I’m glad you are as prepared as you can be. Keep the great videos coming!😊
Central Idaho we got our first snow at 5k' (though 2nd at least at the 7k' range) last week and it was a balmy 9F when I got up this morning. Good luck in easter Idaho with the winter prep!
A+ Lot of work (!!) Your concerns are well founded -we just don’t know what's around the next bend but there are lots of our neighbors who have never heard of a number Ten Can of stores or a Pantry. Thanks for encouraging them without a club. Troubles ahead
What's crazy to me is I could say yep it is the most firewood you have cut I realized that I've seen all of the fall seasons up there been watching for a long time
May be a good idea to stock up on larger crushed stone to fill in ruts and softer parts of the road next spring. While we all know, the municipalities should take care of this problem, you don't want a repeat of last spring and you know they are not gonna help. I know the angst of having to do that sort of thing as I pay my own property taxes yearly and all I seem to get for it are inspectors who want to tell me what I can and can't do with my land.
About 15 yrs ago, my brother & I helped move my parents from one town to another. I was working in the basement clearing it out. I came across a jar of canned pears from about 40 yrs ago. I was ready to throw it out, my moms generation didnt waste anything. She told me not to throw out the pears, that were indeed fermented, she would eat them. I would have loved to see her face as she was eating the pears. She would be about 96 yrs of age now
suggestion use the heavy duty animals fence panels and make a rock holding Cage for retaining wall similar to that see on highway where rock / land slide is potential
I am so impressed with how much the excavator helps with the firewood process. You cut up a LOT of wood in a relatively short time. I'm sure it makes you and Cedar feel better about winter. Stay safe and warm, RPR family!
Hmmmm... seems like you could use a log splitter. You might want to take a gander at Outdoors with the Morgans - seems a good portion of his productivity is firewood and he owns a few. He went to the Paul Bunyan Festival and bought yet another splitter... I mean... I know it's sort of fun to chop/split firewood with an axe - but that DOES get old after a while. Love your uploads... thanks for sharing all this with us.
Every time I see Willie I think of your first dog and I can’t remember his name! Without him you couldn’t have built your home! He was your constant companion 🙏💞 So many good memories of love and laughter you have created for us. 🙏 Unfortunately Heath, I agree with you about the future and am grateful for the wisdom our grandparents gave us! 🙏❤️
Thank you and your family for this post. I gave up counting the times the leaf blower has appeared :) I agree with hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst as I fear bad times are here, or will soon be.
You need to look at Heatmor out door wood boilers. I live in north central Kansas and have had one going on 20 years. it is the best way to heat your house without the mess in your house. It can go almost anywhere and you pump the ot water under ground to what you want to heat! You can heat the house and the shop with one fire source. I will never use anything else until I can't cut wood.
Thank you for your continued posts. I have no dought the videos help those who need them, including myself. I think, I started watching for the oil filter (Toilet Roll) time. Still love the videos and can't help but learn a lot from your journey.
Heath work smarter and not harder, get a firewood processor for the bobcat, it will allow you to cut and split your firewood with out having handle it many times, and it will allow you to process more firewood faster without breaking your back.
Great work accomplished, can’t wait to see the new animals and the happiness it brings your family ❤. May you have a good winter experience this year and can keep the snow at bay🎉
Yes, Heath! I was getting worried by the pessimistic tone of the first 18 minutes of the video. But casually preparing is the best way to do it. Don't be like the depression era people who leave behind 40-year-old food. But also don't fall into the trap of worrying about things you can not control and are being blown out of proportion, which is most things on the news in America.
Hosea 6 confirms the year 6000 is 2030. Religions Jews know their Messiah will appear in the year 6000 but their year is 5784 ... because they didn't want Jesus fulfilling Daniel 9, Jonah. Religious Rabbis say that they can speed up the appearance of their Messiah if they remain faithful to the law .. as they know the actually year 6 000 .... is very soon. What's been happening this year is the start of the 7 year tribulation .. where Jews & Christians will be persecuted & killed for believing in the God of Israel, Jerusalem & the Bible. Blown out of proportion? This is actually the end times ... of Mankind ruling the Earth. But God told us from the very beginning Mankind has 7 x 1000 years to procreate ... and the final 1000 years God will rule mankind. This is why God had a 6 day creation & the 7th day belongs to Him ... were God could have made everything in a split second. There is no time ... in Heaven or Hell. Time only exists in the Universe with the living ... and it began 5993 years ago breaking a simple rule ... from God.
Did you get the house stained yet? How about the retaining wall so the hillside doesnt take out your house!. And of course you finished the water tank shelter build that you were going to first thing this past spring.
Heath an Cedar have become my favorite folks, having watched their lives for years before the Red Poppy Ranch.They are entitled to income for their efforts so I am now a Premium subscriber. The ranch is in a part of Idaho similar to our area in Canada, geographically and weather wise. My best wishes to you and your family from a loyal Canadian.

Will you keep the original bed on the 69 Ford or will you use the flatbed on the build? 🛻🛠🤔
I already know you are frame swapping to the newer model frame and power train, but was curious about the bed you would use.🛠🛻👍
I would recommend starting a renewable firewood lot coppicing a stand of maple and adding other trees that coppice well.
With the risk of beating a dead horse, I think you need to rebuild the cylinder seals on your excavator over the winter.
Because it’s seems all the cylinders are drooping I would say that is more of a valve body leak.
What about the pivot points? the thing sounds like every joint is wagging in the wind.
’ll bet that Heath is well aware that the hydraulics leak and that the excavator has a few loose pivot pins. He has other things that require his attention first but he almost certainly intends to tackle everything else on his list as soon as he gets “a round tuit!” 😜
He’s going to sell
It soon anyway.
Hay you could build a carport right by where the old LP tank had been. Have a covered walkway to the house. Cedar could park the Jeep there and the firewood would be alot closer to the house. Yes that is the most wood I have seen you have stacked and ready for winter! Stay safe and warm. God bless and protect.!
These are the Recessions I remember that effected my life. Early 80's, early 90's, 2001, The Great Recession of 2008 and the one that has just started. I was born in 1964 and graduated from High School in 1982. Great video, thanks for sharing, Russ from Oregon.
Also, the only thing I would change about your videos would be the body mounted cameras, when you were blowing after the wood stacking I got motion sick.
😂😂😂
But I jus look away so carry on, I really enjoy your videos so thank you and God Bless you all 🙏
I think maybe Cedar told you to fill the woodshed.
As someone who heated with coal and wood in the mountains of Pennsylvania, I have noticed that you always seem to wait until the last minute to gather, cut, stack, and season your family's wood. We had a huge pile of processed and stacked wood near the house - half was from the current year requiring curing, and half was dried and ready to go for the current year. The 1000 gal. propane tank was filled just in case the propane boiler was needed. The coal bin had plenty of coal in it.
Hi is being"prepared" 😆😆😆 Would love people stop believing this end of the world thing. Just put away your social media and start reading the newspaper and watch the news.
Take a minute and look back. Heath, you and Cedar, have built such a wonderful life for yourself and your kids. Admirable.
Wow 😮that’s absolutely beautiful in black and white-I take all our pictures that way -❤
The kids are growing up unbelievably fast.
I also wasn't expecting to see snow already.
Good job on the firewood, it looks like it should last you for the winter
They moved in to the less-than-complete home with 4 kids still at home. Now, it appears they only have 2 at home. Ob‐La‐Di, Ob‐La‐Da life goes on.
@@mindeloman I know, I've been watching before the house was built.
I don't know if the 2 youngest kids are getting old, or I'm getting old
I don’t know why it’s so relaxing watching a grown man cut firewood in his home in northern Idaho but darn it it is. Have a great Sunday.😂👍👍
HEY! Hello Red Poppy and thumbs UP!!
Your son was amazing how he accelerated when he saw the Goal line. The determination on his face looked just like you. I have seen it many times on you 👍
Enjoy and look forward to your video. I enjoy listening to you talk. Health and Cedar you work so great together. Love watching your family grow up. ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Got my shirt and hat in the mail, along with a hand written thank you from the folks at Red Poppy Ranch! Feels great to support good people. Thanks!
I am so happy to hear this! Thank you for your support. 😊
I am 58 & my dad was born in 1921 and he told me about the depression & i dont think that we have ever seen one in my life time butwhat is going on & what we will see will be lot worse then a depression we are heading for a complete devastation of the world but guess we will have to see but some where something has to give thats for sure good luck & god bless you & yours
I just gotta say... that's an absolutely ingenious way to cut down your firewood with the excavator. I would have never thought to do it like that!!

thank heaven you got the rock retaining wall behind the house built before it snowed ; )
I literally cheered as the house and shop got some much needed loads of gravel!
I think the saying goes "luck is when preparedness meets opportunity".
Okay I feel much better now that you got the wood stacked LOL I always enjoy the positive message dabbled in with some Pearls of Wisdom it is refreshing it appears in your world Common Sense is a little more common

I loved the little kitten at 33:27. Y’all be safe in that weather and don’t forget to share some of your snow, please!
Great idea holdi g logs over truck so smart.
Things are looking great and you are sounding more like yourself.
Thank You for the video. You have a wonderful Family.
Thanks ethan and cedar and kids for taking time out to film you work and family ❤ I look forward to every episode thankyou for everything God bless all of you ❤ in Jesus name xxx England 🏴
Ethan huh?
Thank you ! God bless your family!
Time to add a tandem axle dump trailer to the fleet, that old wood trailer works but a dump trailer would be a whole lot easier and you will use it a lot more.
Hard living but good living always prepared for any situation and great lessons in family values
Heath I believe we qre in for another great depression but many won't survive it like yours and my grandparents, ( mine were Italian and Swedish immigrants.) My grandfather on my Dads side of the family dates back to the original 3 ships he married a 2nd generation swedish woman. I'm 65 and really fear for this great country. This country in 200 years has transformed and made the ENTIRE GLOBE, a better place even though many that we help hate us!!
The place is looking good after a lot of hard, hard, hard, hard work.
Keep the seeds of the pumpkins and grown your own next spring. Food for you and you can use them the way you do it now, as well.
Since you already have solar power, wouldn’t a heat pump give you basically free heating and cooling? If you didn’t want to run ductwork, you could install several mini-splits, which we did in a house.
Amen brother...my parents both lived through the depression and World War II. My brothers and sisters got a healthly dose of prepadareness when we grew up. Great messaging as always. All the best to you and your family, and keep on keeping on.
What a good feeling to have at least that much firewood for the winter
I’ve been away for awhile and I am glad to catch up on watching videos. I am amazed at the progress since I’ve been away. You and your family are an inspiration I hope to soon achieve for my family and I. Thank you RPR, it feels good to be back watching again.
I have to agree with a previous post the kids are growing soooo fast I remember with our 5 there were certain times when they would have growing sprees and the transition was soon to be complete, and boom there you have it adults almost. And then the inevitable spouses and grand baby’s it’s a wonderful thing and I agree the future is bright by what you make it.
Nice pumpkins! Next year you guys should try to grow your own.
Oh. Gotta love Reed making a touchdown. Nice. Gravel looks good. Lots of luck for this winter. Looking forward to those videos. God Bless You All. Keep going.
We built a bit of a guillotine at the bottom of a 6ft long 20” bit of heavy wall pipe. It cuts accross the log and splits the cut-off in half in one operation, and it’s built to mount on either a skid-steer, or on the quick-attach for our excavator. You scoop up a log, stand it up over your wood pile or trailer, and just cycle the hydraulics. Cut, split, and piled in a hurry. We have some work to do on the cutters, as it can do a bit more crushing than splitting at the moment, but it’s a work in progress.
It's like they say, necessity is the mother of invention. Happy inventing!😅
I hope the gravel trucks are keeping there break fluid clean this time
Good evening Red Poppy family and as always the best show on Sunday night!!
O my thanks for the video watching from Reno NV
You have done so much this summer, it never ceases to amaze me what you accomplish. I understand and I hear you in regards to our current situation in the world. I’m glad you are as prepared as you can be. Keep the great videos coming!😊
Down here in the Treasure Valley, we noticed our leaves started turning about 6 weeks before they did last year! Winter seems early.
A well put together video. You all are an inspiration to a new generation. Good luck on passing the inspection on the high fence pen.
Can’t wait to see a couple of snow plow build videos.. hopefully sooner than later.. I think it will be another busy winter.
Central Idaho we got our first snow at 5k' (though 2nd at least at the 7k' range) last week and it was a balmy 9F when I got up this morning. Good luck in easter Idaho with the winter prep!
Work smarter not harder, Heath you’ve made a difference in that saying by the way you gathered that firewood. GO REED! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯
I’m with you on being prepare 🙏

May be a good idea to stock up on larger crushed stone to fill in ruts and softer parts of the road next spring. While we all know, the municipalities should take care of this problem, you don't want a repeat of last spring and you know they are not gonna help. I know the angst of having to do that sort of thing as I pay my own property taxes yearly and all I seem to get for it are inspectors who want to tell me what I can and can't do with my land.
Such a great message, & awesome music !
This channel should have way more subscribers!
About 15 yrs ago, my brother & I helped move my parents from one town to another. I was working in the basement clearing it out. I came across a jar of canned pears from about 40 yrs ago. I was ready to throw it out, my moms generation didnt waste anything. She told me not to throw out the pears, that were indeed fermented, she would eat them. I would have loved to see her face as she was eating the pears. She would be about 96 yrs of age now
It would be good to have a furnace and woodburner as auxiliary heat. We had that all growing up never had pipes freezing and no basement either.
suggestion use the heavy duty animals fence panels and make a rock holding Cage for retaining wall similar to that see on highway where rock / land slide is potential
I am so impressed with how much the excavator helps with the firewood process. You cut up a LOT of wood in a relatively short time. I'm sure it makes you and Cedar feel better about winter. Stay safe and warm, RPR family!
Hmmmm... seems like you could use a log splitter. You might want to take a gander at Outdoors with the Morgans - seems a good portion of his productivity is firewood and he owns a few. He went to the Paul Bunyan Festival and bought yet another splitter... I mean... I know it's sort of fun to chop/split firewood with an axe - but that DOES get old after a while. Love your uploads... thanks for sharing all this with us.
I think he has a log splitter. As I recall, it was very loud.
@@damogranheart5521 He mentioned in the video that it's his wife and kids job to split and move the wood to the porch.
Every time I see Willie I think of your first dog and I can’t remember his name! Without him you couldn’t have built your home! He was your constant companion 🙏💞 So many good memories of love and laughter you have created for us. 🙏 Unfortunately Heath, I agree with you about the future and am grateful for the wisdom our grandparents gave us! 🙏❤️

@@timlecount8690Bless your sweet heart ❤️ I would be trying to remember for days 🙏
No problem, happy to help:)@@karengossett1475
Thank you and your family for this post. I gave up counting the times the leaf blower has appeared :) I agree with hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst as I fear bad times are here, or will soon be.
Stacking firewood is a good job for kids.
Looks like you got that wood stacked just in time.........................>👍
You need to look at Heatmor out door wood boilers. I live in north central Kansas and have had one going on 20 years. it is the best way to heat your house without the mess in your house. It can go almost anywhere and you pump the ot water under ground to what you want to heat! You can heat the house and the shop with one fire source. I will never use anything else until I can't cut wood.
Cedar! The porch looks so beautiful! 🎃
Thank you for your continued posts. I have no dought the videos help those who need them, including myself. I think, I started watching for the oil filter (Toilet Roll) time. Still love the videos and can't help but learn a lot from your journey.
Heath work smarter and not harder, get a firewood processor for the bobcat, it will allow you to cut and split your firewood with out having handle it many times, and it will allow you to process more firewood faster without breaking your back.
Bandit!!!!...❤...I was waiting for you to do gravel b4 the snow really hits and yous got the firewood done fast too...😊
Great work accomplished, can’t wait to see the new animals and the happiness it brings your family ❤. May you have a good winter experience this year and can keep the snow at bay🎉
Excavator=time and work saved👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, Heath! I was getting worried by the pessimistic tone of the first 18 minutes of the video. But casually preparing is the best way to do it. Don't be like the depression era people who leave behind 40-year-old food. But also don't fall into the trap of worrying about things you can not control and are being blown out of proportion, which is most things on the news in America.
Hosea 6 confirms the year 6000 is 2030. Religions Jews know their Messiah will appear in the year 6000 but their year is 5784 ... because they didn't want Jesus fulfilling Daniel 9, Jonah. Religious Rabbis say that they can speed up the appearance of their Messiah if they remain faithful to the law .. as they know the actually year 6 000 .... is very soon.
What's been happening this year is the start of the 7 year tribulation .. where Jews & Christians will be persecuted & killed for believing in the God of Israel, Jerusalem & the Bible.
Blown out of proportion?
This is actually the end times ... of Mankind ruling the Earth. But God told us from the very beginning Mankind has 7 x 1000 years to procreate ... and the final 1000 years God will rule mankind. This is why God had a 6 day creation & the 7th day belongs to Him ... were God could have made everything in a split second.
There is no time ... in Heaven or Hell. Time only exists in the Universe with the living ... and it began 5993 years ago breaking a simple rule ... from God.

Wow, that's an awesome way to cut up your fire wood.
Awesome, great job guys 😊
Did you get the house stained yet? How about the retaining wall so the hillside doesnt take out your house!. And of course you finished the water tank shelter build that you were going to first thing this past spring.
Heath an Cedar have become my favorite folks, having watched their lives for years before the Red Poppy Ranch.They are entitled to income for their efforts so I am now a Premium subscriber. The ranch is in a part of Idaho similar to our area in Canada, geographically and weather wise.
My best wishes to you and your family from a loyal Canadian.
