    Clearing out an old fence row is a true test of hard physical labor, and perseverance. You passed with flying colors my friend! And your reward will be enjoying the new view every time you drive home. Thank you for making and sharing your videos.😊

      Agreed! It's an art, after all. It has been said that an experienced "old hand" inspector can just about tell you exactly who wired a box just by opening the cover and glancing inside. Kudos on your solar "exploration" good work there too. And thank your lucky stars you don't live where a.c. is a "must." Beautiful footage of a beautiful (and, it seems, ever improving) place. Camera skills improving apace. Will be glad to "follow you around" (via drone footage) once you're able to get back out on the land.

    All of your work has paid off Evan, you two have done a marvelous job on the fence rows. Isn't it great to go outside and just look around and say to yourself look at how we have transformed the looks to OUR property. We are sure proud of you folks for all you have done around there and shared with us on your videos . Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

    You know, Evan, that you'd probably be alarmed by how many of your viewers turn to your channel for the "escape" from real and perceived (imagined?) pressures. Thanks to you and Rebecca for providing these glimpses into your lives. I know y'all are worning hard to "make it happen" and our good wishes are with you. I know you're bustin' your behinds, but for us, it's just "quiet time." Thanks again!

    A 2 or 3 inch slice of that black cherry makes for a decent butcher block with just the bark removed. Glad to see you didn’t forget to seal the end of that saw log to prevent checking from drying too fast.

    On the Black Cherry log, why not leave the ends on and let it dry out so you don't need to worry about the ends drying out quicker since you were going to cut the ends off anyway.
    The fence lines are really looking nice.

    2-3 coats on the ends.. lol I just get done cutting branches and logs and burning the waste all morning and I come in the house for some lunch and I sit down and watch you cut up some logs... wearing me out good Evan. :) But that was some cherry so I had to watch. I did a couple of days in a row all day and had to take ibuprofen and oxycodone to get through it... man was I sore for 2 days after that... could barely get up from the sitting position. Got a feeling it's gonna be that way again... I had like 65 willows to remove that I had for a wind break. They did their job protecting my other trees from the wind while they got some girth on them so it was time for them to go.... lots of work and no help.. but that just they way it goes eh Evan? :)

    I hit a 3/4 buried gallon propane tank once with a brush hog. Luckily, it was not pressurized and did not explode. That work is not for the faint of heart. If I were you, I would have cut down all of those small trees. I don't want any trees in my fence row. Great job on the cleanup, looks nice.
