Mike there is nothing more enjoyable than having 3 generation of family working on a project together... Thanks for sharing... glad to see Ed did not have any lasting memories or scars from his last time on utube..
When Mike said about the dogs, “Don’t get me wrong, they all have their issues.” I spit out my morning coffee laughing. I know EXACTLY what he means. Have had many dogs over the years. No two dogs are the same.
“When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.” -Mark Twain
Mr. Mike, your father-in-law is amazing, God Bless Him, and you! I could watch this type of work all day! I cant do it anymore at this point and I am only 60 ys. young. Been out of work for a year with back issues after a fall from only 7 feet to ground. I was cringing when you were putting that nice wood on the fire as a wood burner I am. Have been cutting and burning wood since 1979 and I enjoy it. Take care Mike, I enjoy your videos, I look forward every morning to watch them, Take care!
Mike and Melissa,always a great 👍 pleasure watching the two of you laughing together about different topics and they say laughter is the best medicine 😮😊❤
I just about fell off my chair laughing when Melissa was telling the story about the vacuum cleaner. My wife and her family are originally from western Pa. I was born and raised in Virginia. We have been married 53 years. The first night she had made us dinner and we were finished she said she had to red up the table. Naturally I had never heard that before. I asked her what that meant and she said to clean up. She still says red up. My wife calls a vacuum a vacuum sweeper, but my mother-in-law called it a sweeper. Funny how different parts of the country have different sayings. Love your channel. God bless your entire family. Say hi to Hunter.
Enjoy that video completely start to finish 😊. I have so many comments, but not enough time lol. From cutting the wood ,feeding the dogs, to broken vacuum cleaners, to my daughter getting her registration, to the laundry basket. my favorite was from my daughter “why did they call it a dimmer switch if you use it to turn the headlights on bright”. That was all hilarious. It’s life
Growing up in a farming area in the north East of the UK. I was in a friends kitchen and saw a rabbit pie just out of the oven and it had a rabbit's head sticking out of the crust and asking my friends mum why, she replied it was to stop the rabbit from drinking the gravy!
It reminds me of the years I spent splitting wood by hand.. They didn't make those kind of wood splitters back when we lived on the farm. That was why I built a boiler where I could put in logs 8" to 10" logs. We ran our boiler all the time because we used it for hot water. Back then we had an electric bill of Ten to Fifteen dollars a month--that was 1975....
My wife and I bought a Shark vacuum about 10 years ago. We have two dogs. The Shark has not given us an ounce of trouble and does a fabulous job. With a push of a button, it converts to a handheld vacuum to do the steps, has a nice long cord, no bags, washable filters and it glides over the carpet. I couldn't imagine owning anything else.
Great way to close out a video, making your audience laugh. I swear, there's always such good stuff here on your channel. It looks like the Vermeer really has become your go-to machine. Just like you said, it would. Which is actually saving wear on your other machines. Melissa's dad is still a go-getter! Pretty cool that after conked on the head he's still man's up w that splitter. If you'd have made it a contest w us to guess what was in that tree, I'd have never guessed a frog!! Very nice video today, as always. Thank you so much for sharing.👍🚜❤️🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲
That is so cool that your father in law still trusts you around a splitter.😂 You could easily have delivered a load of wood but I'm sure he appreciated working along side of you and your son. Melissa go and buy the best vacuum on the market. The silence after the announcement "I was going to give it a week, then we were gonna buy it" was great.
2 things- 1: It was so special to see Melissa's dad out getting it done with the saw. 2: We were laughing so hard about Melissa's story of the sweeper (that's what we call it in Indiana).
Good morning Mike and Melissa, I sweep with my vacuum. Covered both bases at once😊😊. Are you referring to the same questions and situations that YOU asked and got into as a new adult??? Melissa, I always heard that "pan story" using a fish. The turkey story was good---thanks for the smile. Nice seeing Ed still going strong. Got to admit I'm a little surprised you'd allow Ed that close to the splitter after the last time. Yea, yea, yea I know. How do you tell your father-in-law he can't play and not hurt his feelings or piss off Melissa 😢😢😢. You made the right call. How did that "wood boring toad" get inside that log?? Will wonders never cease😂😂
That toad came out so quickly. You interrupted it's nap. Those stories you told were hilarious. Ed looks good out there helping you and Levi. Stay safe.
I love local slang. I was born and raised in northern KY sweeping the rugs. In TX they look at me funny if I say that now. Here you vacuum the carpets. And when I was in other parts of the country Ya'll would get people belly laughing. But I still like going fishin at the crick. Great channel M & M.
We have two 70-pound dogs (a White Shepherd and a Shepherd Mix) We recommend the Shark Robot that empties itself into the base. This thing runs every day for about 2 hours and it is a lifesaver. Our White Shepherd only sheds twice per year for 6 months. 😂😉 We do have a Shark upright vac but the Robot keeps up with most of the job. It is programable and maps out your house. You can easily select where and when want it to clean.
Always enjoy when you and Melissa talk about everyday issues and the kids. Found myself grinning and laughing at Melissa’s stories. Melissa’s father came along way for wood.
Great video. Wonderful to see Ed too. Okay. After military moves and being stationed in many States across the beautiful USoA, I learned how differently we all speak. I’m from a tiny town in Northeast Indiana. We always said “I’m going to sweep the carpet”. There are also other ways we speak, and words we use, that I found were different than others. Just like England. They have pockets of cultures throughout. We, in the US, do too. 2) I have had many sweepers. My favorite is my current. The Shark. From Amazon. 3) When I was little I watched my mom cut strawberries and she would cut the green top off and the bottom tip. I did the same when I got older. She saw me and asked why I cut the bottom tip. She said she only cut the tip off if it was bad or not red. Isn’t it all interesting. Our interpretations, our cultures where we grow up. Back in the ‘80’s & 90’s of military life, I got to experience a vast array of people I thought said things like I did simply because they are American like myself. Fun learning the differences. Now I’m in the South and still learning. I love your personality Melissa. You must be fun to be around. Strong work, Mike. As always. Sorry I wrote a book. The End
I had to do several double-takes before I realized the last few minutes of you and Melissa was filmed with the equipment and fire as a different video in the background. Great editing job, and I also loved the stories about the turkey, roast and "sweeper" giving little bails of dog hair.
The more i see these mini skidsteers in use the more i want to get one for my firewood setup. Ive been wanting one for few years but just haven't pulled the trigger. I like the compact size and that i wonted have to climb over the implement in use. Theres money to be had in a good piece of equipment with time saved and less work on tge body ... priceless
Great episode Mike. I really enjoying watching the older timers getting out and working hard. I'm 65 and not physically as able as I once was, but doing what I can do makes me feel alive. God bless you all
Melissa ill 2nd the recommendation for Shark vacuum. Over 55 years of marriage we've owned most brands. The wife hands down loves the new Shark. We also have dogs and it just does a great job and easy maintenance. You can order straight from the factory too. Your dad looks great. KC
Yet another great video. As for a new sweeper take a look at one of these. Miele Classic C1 Cat & Dog PowerLine - SBBN0. It’s a canister vacuum with a powered brush head. It uses bags instead of the Dyson type units where you see all of your dirt and hair swirling around. I watched a bunch of videos before we replaced our Dyson with the Miele. Dyson vacs are heavy. I suggest that you visit a vacuum store and at least try the Miele before you purchase your new sweeper. Keystone in Butler carries Miele. Also, your old sweeper might just need to be cleaned. If it’s clogged up it will overheat and there may be an automatic shutoff.
Thank you Melissa for calling it sweeping! I grew up in Somerset County, PA. I went to VA 13 years ago to accept a teaching position. Several times, people have questioned me in VA when I say I'm going to get the sweeper to sweep the floor. That's the way I grew up. My husband and step-daughter still look at me funny when I say I'm going to sweep. It's habit to say it that way.
Three dogs and a broken vacuum? Time to pick up a vacuum accessory for the Mini-skid! LOL Oh, and "sweepers" are push brooms with round brushes that sweep the dirt up into the metal head and must be dumped manually. My California perspective, anyway.
We have an Electrolux, Miele and a Dyson Absolute. The Dyson picks up the best but the battery doesn't last long... Daughter (6 cats) gave us a broken Dyson Animal Ball that I fixed(She loved it, she had work done at her house and it was totally clogged with spackle dust) worked amazing after I cleaned it up and replaced about $100 in parts and filters on it. It is a $600 vacuum but let me tell you it will suck a golf ball thru a garden hose...
Good to see Ed again :) Seems like he enjoys cutting the fire wood, and he handles the saw really well. I remember me and my dad would split firewood with chainsaw and an axe, splitting wedges, by hand. Fortunately we live in SE Texas Orange, on LA Border, and it does not get that cold very often. On the vacuum lol, i am 72 never heard anyone call it a sweeper, just location and tradition. We never call supper dinner either. :) Hey Mike, if you have time some day, think about another civil war video we really like those. thanks :) ❤💯🙏
Mike I love your channel , always put a smile on my face when your beautiful wife joins you for a little banter! Really love her little stories. I must add that it took me a couple of times to realize what you meant, when you would stop at Bass Pro Shop on your way home from WV and say I'm going to pick up some precious metals, until the time I caught the large case of ammo hitting the bed of your truck ,then it all made sense! 2A, need I say anymore! Looking forward to the next one take care.
Good morning Mike ... I live near Reading, Pa. I am taking advantage of the cooler weather to take care of the wood pile. Burn 4 - 5 cords a season. Retired for 3 years. I'm about 40 minutes from Mt Joy, Pa 😊
You should consider a Rainbow Vacuum for your next sweeper. They are a bit pricey but they do an amazing job. We have two dogs with plenty of hair and the Rainbow keeps our house clean. It uses a water bath to trap the hair and dirt and it does a great job. Thanks for the video!
@@davidmorse8432sadly we have devolved into a toss away society. I haven’t bought a new vacuum or lawn mower in 40 yrs . Just fix one that someone has put out on trash day. One was because the spark plug wire had been knocked off !
Melissa, the cat story was hilarious. Up to this very day my Mom(99 and still going) would trim the ends of a smoked ham because her Mom did the same thing even though before Grand Ma passed she told her that her Dad did not want to spend the money to by a larger roasting pan.
Love to see the old man doing his thing.hes sure not afraid of work...i walked in Dollar Gen the other day,and i almost froze to death,,it was so cold,,haaa Seeing Melissa with that sweat shirt on,,i been wearing one for the last 4 days,,it was in the 40s at night...now its warming back up..i think we will have some cold days in Sept..getting ready
You're right about the sweeper, vacuum terminology. Around here if you say sweeper you're talking about using a broom to sweep the floor. If you vacuum you could be using the electric vacuum to clean the carpet or a hardwood/vinyl floor. I seem to remember my relatives in Kentucky talking about using a sweeper (vacuum). Also I think my mom used the sweeper term. Also that frog was a lucky guy!
When they are teens the kids think we don't know anything and then they get into thier twenties they marvel at who much smarter you got in just a few years.
Nice to see the A team in action. In our part of the world a lot of people call a vacuum a hoover.Some people do the hoovering. Other will say a vacuum or do the vacuuming. Love the way the Vernig can pick the pole up at one end then cantilever it out in front clear of the ground
Hello! 😊 Three generations splitting firewood, Cool ! 👍 We have been using a Dyson Animal for several years now and there have been some problems but they are great about helping you get it fixed up again. Mostly problems with the beater bar motor and the little belt that drives the beater bar. I really like the technology that it uses to separate the dirt from the air. Centrifugal force and no filter bags needed.
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans Hi Mike, Ed, Levi, and Melissa. The first, "sweeper" we had was called an, "Electrolux". Then we had a Hoover, and after that a Kirby. After getting married, my wife wanted a Rainbow but now we have a Dyson. Sweepers thru the years.....
Pasta / Macaroni Salad. Dressing equal parts Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip salt and pepper to taste. Finely chop celery, cucumbers, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes. This is better after it sits in the fridge for a couple hours. I switch between macaroni and small shell pasta. You have to try this before passing judgement, it is my go to.
Brilliant once again ! Here in Scotland We call Pajama Trousers Jammies too😅 We had Dysons but cost a lot when last one broke We bought a SHARK yep designed in USA my wife likes no problems and many configurations ! Finally we theM HOOVERS 😂 ❤ The videos guys
Between your Wolfe Ridge 22C and 28C, which one do you prefer? I think the 22c has a faster cycle time. As for vacuum cleaners, all the household ones end up not lasting and you can't get parts for them. Just get a good shop vac with the attachments you need and be happy.
Greetings, Morgans! I enjoy the channel. I highly recommend Miele canister "sweepers". Our family and the business has had great success with Miele vacuums/sweepers for roughly 25 years. Here in Lancaster County, PA, I grew up regularly hearing both the words sweeper and vacuum.
Bwaa 😂, I see somebody else had a cat. That was a neat little garden tractor modified for mowing. It looked as it was built in the 50's or early 60's. My Dad loved the International Haversters, he bought two, one for mowing, and blowing snow.
It's nice to see Ed still out there kickin butt. I thought the Toad thing was about to be tragic again, but no. Pretty cool it survived that. Nice video once again. Tell Melissa we have been big fans of the Vac brand, "Shark." We have had multiple dogs forever like yo guys. Yeah, replacement is a thing with most brands, but the Shark is a good buy, I think.
I had commented on Toms channel when they were poring concrete in a basement and the house had a Pittsburg potty. My house in WV has a Pittsburg potty in the basement. It’s a very unique addition to a basement.
Mike and Melissa, First time posting a comment, you have some pretty fine Toy's there Mike, Congrates on not being Broke anymore !! Melissa talked about the " Vacuum Cleaner" dying, so about 6 months ago Had the same issue, longest time had Electrolux, last one was a Panasonic, so I wanted to try a "Stick" Vacuum, Now I have many " Ryobi " 18 volt tools, with Battery's still working purchased as far back as 2017, probably have 7 or so 18 volt Ryobi Battery's, Home Depot had a Ryobi "PET" Stick Vacuum,( was $249, now $199) has Beater Bar, Headlight at the floor, Brush, Crevice tool, 4 AH Battery and charger! They did a Great Job with this Vacuum, Carpet or Kitchen Vinyl Floor works Great, Headlight at the Foor, Is amazing to me at seeing Dirt etc on kitchen floor! Just saying, Only Vacuum I have in the House Now! Beater Brush pops right out for cleaning the Hair or whatever get wrapped up in it ! Just my 2 cents worth! Mark in CT
Now we can see why Malisa is so strong and a workhorse. She is from good stock. Malisa, those were the funniest stories I have heard for awhile. Maybe you should tell stories on your channel.
I know what you’re going through with the dog hair. We have 2 golden retrievers and we find hair in places that we didn’t know was a place. You ate very fortunate because Mike has the skill to actually rip out your old carpet and replace it with hardwood flooring. Just do a room at a time. The new engineered snap together flooring is great. I did our entire house. Besides carpet only lasts 5 to 6 years and needs to be replaced anyway. Have a great weekend. Love the videos.
Hi Mike. Great video. It's nice to see your father in law. He looks great. Hi Melissa & 3 dogs. 👋👋👋👋 Great job Mike, father in law, & Levi. Hi Melissa. Great family stories you two. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😆😆😆😁😁😁 Well. Say Hi to Eva, Hunter, Levi, Tyler, & Hannah. 🤣😂😆😁🥰🙂😉👍❤️💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🪵
Mike, have you ever considered a mulching head for your excavator? You could keep those tails open and do a lot around the property. Just a thought. Thanks for all you do. I'm getting homesick as I always do this time of year for being up in your neck of the woods. Especially when I see the temps dropping and the leaves changing. Also when you talk about the colloquialisms of the area. I still say Youins. LOL
Nice teamwork splitting wood. Great to see Ed back in the saddle with you guys. I have had really good success with the Shark bagless HEPA canister vacuums ( or wood that be sweeper!!) I have dogs and cats and use mine every day. The 1st one lasted about 10 yrs. The It still works but was weak so bought a newer model with better attachments and use the old one in my shop. I believe they are good machine for the price.
Mike there is nothing more enjoyable than having 3 generation of family working on a project together... Thanks for sharing... glad to see Ed did not have any lasting memories or scars from his last time on utube..
Sid, I know exactly what you meam. Nothing like family helping each other as long as no one is keeping score.

Making memories for Levi, cutting wood with your dad and grandpa. It sure brings back memories for me
I appreciate these moments more and more as I get older.
Mr. Mike, your father-in-law is amazing, God Bless Him, and you! I could watch this type of work all day! I cant do it anymore at this point and I am only 60 ys. young. Been out of work for a year with back issues after a fall from only 7 feet to ground. I was cringing when you were putting that nice wood on the fire as a wood burner I am. Have been cutting and burning wood since 1979 and I enjoy it. Take care Mike, I enjoy your videos, I look forward every morning to watch them, Take care!
Awsome that Levi can cut wood with his Grand father, stories he can tell his children
Mike and Melissa,always a great 👍 pleasure watching the two of you laughing together about different topics and they say laughter is the best medicine 😮😊❤
I just about fell off my chair laughing when Melissa was telling the story about the vacuum cleaner. My wife and her family are originally from western Pa. I was born and raised in Virginia. We have been married 53 years. The first night she had made us dinner and we were finished she said she had to red up the table. Naturally I had never heard that before. I asked her what that meant and she said to clean up. She still says red up. My wife calls a vacuum a vacuum sweeper, but my mother-in-law called it a sweeper. Funny how different parts of the country have different sayings. Love your channel. God bless your entire family. Say hi to Hunter.
Glad Ed is back on the horse and helping get firewood. No fear in tat guy. 3 generations working together is priceless.
It's good to see her dad. He can still get with it.
Enjoy that video completely start to finish 😊. I have so many comments, but not enough time lol. From cutting the wood ,feeding the dogs, to broken vacuum cleaners, to my daughter getting her registration, to the laundry basket. my favorite was from my daughter “why did they call it a dimmer switch if you use it to turn the headlights on bright”.

Love the "brighter" switch comment!
I still get my foot caught in the steering wheel turning on the high beams😅
The laundry basket story was a riot...👍
Growing up in a farming area in the north East of the UK. I was in a friends kitchen and saw a rabbit pie just out of the oven and it had a rabbit's head sticking out of the crust and asking my friends mum why, she replied it was to stop the rabbit from drinking the gravy!

We have two 70-pound dogs (a White Shepherd and a Shepherd Mix)

Working with a experienced and willing crew could be called work or fun. I see you had both. Your father-in-law is a treasure.
Good morning Morgan family ❤ your stories Melissa, lol.
Nice to see dad loading up on firewood and having fun.
Always enjoy when you and Melissa talk about everyday issues and the kids. Found myself grinning and laughing at Melissa’s stories. Melissa’s father came along way for wood.

No matter how you cut it - it is cool to see three generations of men working firewood. God Bless America!!

I love Melissa’s stories

You should consider a Rainbow Vacuum for your next sweeper. They are a bit pricey but they do an amazing job. We have two dogs with plenty of hair and the Rainbow keeps our house clean. It uses a water bath to trap the hair and dirt and it does a great job. Thanks for the video!
Vacuum repair people are true treasures!
@@JustAFlyover Almost extinct though.
@@davidmorse8432sadly we have devolved into a toss away society. I haven’t bought a new vacuum or lawn mower in 40 yrs . Just fix one that someone has put out on trash day. One was because the spark plug wire had been knocked off !
Glad to see Ed he will stay healthy and happy doing some Firewood ❤
Good Morning, Mike! And all the Morgans. I'm not usually up this early, but wanted to say HI. I'll watch today's video with my coffee. Have a day!!!
the last few minutes of this video are spot on. no truer words have been spoken.
Good day to you. The turkey story was great. I grew up eating apple sauce with pork chops. It's funny how my kids do the same thing because of me.
Family is a good thing. Kids are always telling stories of our adventures, so I guess we’re doing something right.
I’m liking the mini skid more and more. Love how you can lift the logs straight out.
Melissa, the cat story was hilarious. Up to this very day my Mom(99 and still going) would trim the ends of a smoked ham because her Mom did the same thing even though before Grand Ma passed she told her that her Dad did not want to spend the money to by a larger roasting pan.
Good Morning Morgan Family 🌞- Have a Fantastic and Blessed Day 🤠
I have never met Ed, but I love him already! Now I know where Melissa gets all her energy!💪👠
Love to see the old man doing his thing.hes sure not afraid of work...i walked in Dollar Gen the other day,and i almost froze to death,,it was so cold,,haaa Seeing Melissa with that sweat shirt on,,i been wearing one for the last 4 days,,it was in the 40s at night...now its warming back up..i think we will have some cold days in Sept..getting ready
You're right about the sweeper, vacuum terminology. Around here if you say sweeper you're talking about using a broom to sweep the floor. If you vacuum you could be using the electric vacuum to clean the carpet or a hardwood/vinyl floor. I seem to remember my relatives in Kentucky talking about using a sweeper (vacuum). Also I think my mom used the sweeper term. Also that frog was a lucky guy!
Love the roast story and you are both so right about what our kids remember when they become young adults. Great video.
How old is Mrs M’s dad? Many people take this for granted, but most people at that age can’t move around like that. Kudos to the guy!
The only vacuum is the Henry,,boy it can take a beating,, and can eat dog hair best ever,,all doing great work
When they are teens the kids think we don't know anything and then they get into thier twenties they marvel at who much smarter you got in just a few years.
The shark sweeper is the only one we use
Nice to see the A team in action. In our part of the world a lot of people call a vacuum a hoover.Some people do the hoovering. Other will say a vacuum or do the vacuuming. Love the way the Vernig can pick the pole up at one end then cantilever it out in front clear of the ground
Hello! 😊 Three generations splitting firewood, Cool ! 👍
We have been using a Dyson Animal for several years now and there have been some problems but they are great about helping you get it fixed up again. Mostly problems with the beater bar motor and the little belt that drives the beater bar. I really like the technology that it uses to separate the dirt from the air. Centrifugal force and no filter bags needed.
Good morning!
Good morning David , happy Caturday 👍🙏😸
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans Hi Mike, Ed, Levi, and Melissa. The first, "sweeper" we had was called an, "Electrolux". Then we had a Hoover, and after that a Kirby. After getting married, my wife wanted a Rainbow but now we have a Dyson. Sweepers thru the years.....
@@badcat4707 Hi BadCat, Happy Caturday to you too! 😸
David. Thanks for the history of vacs. I just ended a 6 week stint with a wound vac on my arm.
Pasta / Macaroni Salad. Dressing equal parts Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip salt and pepper to taste. Finely chop celery, cucumbers, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes. This is better after it sits in the fridge for a couple hours. I switch between macaroni and small shell pasta. You have to try this before passing judgement, it is my go to.
Always used miracle whip and sugar. Onion, celery, egg, chopped. Used Macaroni. Top with paprika.
Brilliant once again ! Here in Scotland We call Pajama Trousers Jammies too😅 We had Dysons but cost a lot when last one broke We bought a SHARK yep designed in USA my wife likes no problems and many configurations ! Finally we theM HOOVERS 😂 ❤ The videos guys
Simplicity is a really good sweeper ( vaccuum ) we've had one for about 20 years
Between your Wolfe Ridge 22C and 28C, which one do you prefer? I think the 22c has a faster cycle time. As for vacuum cleaners, all the household ones end up not lasting and you can't get parts for them. Just get a good shop vac with the attachments you need and be happy.
Hello Morgan’s , my wife and I like the Dyson vacuum , they are a little pricey, last a long time , best of luck finding a good one 😃
😁😁😁 The laundry basket story!!
Mike we ordered our first batch of fire starter excited to get the wood stove Hot!! thank you.
Mark
Greetings, Morgans! I enjoy the channel.
I highly recommend Miele canister "sweepers". Our family and the business has had great success with Miele vacuums/sweepers for roughly 25 years. Here in Lancaster County, PA, I grew up regularly hearing both the words sweeper and vacuum.
Awesome video! It's so great seeing the family working together!!
- What great exercise for a seasoned good o’guy.
When we had our German Shepperd. We have a Dyson for dogs with long hair. It worked great.
Probably your best video so far. The laundry basket story was hilarious.
Recommend vacuum, I’ve had a bissel pet pro for ten years and it’s for people who have pets. I have 3 dogs and 4 cats. It does a great job.
Good morning Mike and OWTM community....hot black coffee and a Mike video...great start to the weekend! Stay Healthy, Stay Safe. Steve in Calgary
Hi Steve, What's the weather in Calgary?
Morning David...51F right now up to 72F today. BIG thunderstorms rolled through last night, luckily only a bit of small hail.
Bwaa 😂, I see somebody else had a cat.
That was a neat little garden tractor modified for mowing. It looked as it was built in the 50's or early 60's. My Dad loved the International Haversters, he bought two, one for mowing, and blowing snow.
For Melissa we have 3 dogs also had a Dyson but now have a shark rotator professional. Works excellent!
It's nice to see Ed still out there kickin butt. I thought the Toad thing was about to be tragic again, but no. Pretty cool it survived that. Nice video once again. Tell Melissa we have been big fans of the Vac brand, "Shark." We have had multiple dogs forever like yo guys. Yeah, replacement is a thing with most brands, but the Shark is a good buy, I think.
I had commented on Toms channel when they were poring concrete in a basement and the house had a Pittsburg potty. My house in WV has a Pittsburg potty in the basement. It’s a very unique addition to a basement.
Mike and Melissa, First time posting a comment, you have some pretty fine Toy's there Mike, Congrates on not being Broke anymore !! Melissa talked about the " Vacuum Cleaner" dying, so about 6 months ago Had the same issue, longest time had Electrolux, last one was a Panasonic, so I wanted to try a "Stick" Vacuum, Now I have many " Ryobi " 18 volt tools, with Battery's still working purchased as far back as 2017, probably have 7 or so 18 volt Ryobi Battery's, Home Depot had a Ryobi "PET" Stick Vacuum,( was $249, now $199) has Beater Bar, Headlight at the floor, Brush, Crevice tool, 4 AH Battery and charger! They did a Great Job with this Vacuum, Carpet or Kitchen Vinyl Floor works Great, Headlight at the Foor, Is amazing to me at seeing Dirt etc on kitchen floor! Just saying, Only Vacuum I have in the House Now! Beater Brush pops right out for cleaning the Hair or whatever get wrapped up in it ! Just my 2 cents worth! Mark in CT
My grandmother - born and raised in small town NC - called it a sweeper. The only person I’ve known to call it that.
Now we can see why Malisa is so strong and a workhorse. She is from good stock. Malisa, those were the funniest stories I have heard for awhile. Maybe you should tell stories on your channel.
Melissa, we live in northern Indiana and we call it a sweeper too
I know what you’re going through with the dog hair. We have 2 golden retrievers and we find hair in places that we didn’t know was a place. You ate very fortunate because Mike has the skill to actually rip out your old carpet and replace it with hardwood flooring. Just do a room at a time. The new engineered snap together flooring is great. I did our entire house. Besides carpet only lasts 5 to 6 years and needs to be replaced anyway. Have a great weekend. Love the videos.
Hi Mike. Great video. It's nice to see your father in law. He looks great. Hi Melissa & 3 dogs. 👋👋👋👋 Great job Mike, father in law, & Levi. Hi Melissa. Great family stories you two. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😆😆😆😁😁😁 Well. Say Hi to Eva, Hunter, Levi, Tyler, & Hannah. 🤣😂😆😁🥰🙂😉👍❤️💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🪵
Get Melissa a Shark Navigator Vacuum, she will love it
Mike, have you ever considered a mulching head for your excavator? You could keep those tails open and do a lot around the property. Just a thought. Thanks for all you do. I'm getting homesick as I always do this time of year for being up in your neck of the woods. Especially when I see the temps dropping and the leaves changing. Also when you talk about the colloquialisms of the area. I still say Youins. LOL
Nice teamwork splitting wood. Great to see Ed back in the saddle with you guys. I have had really good success with the Shark bagless HEPA canister vacuums ( or wood that be sweeper!!) I have dogs and cats and use mine every day. The 1st one lasted about 10 yrs. The It still works but was weak so bought a newer model with better attachments and use the old one in my shop. I believe they are good machine for the price.
God Bless the Morgan's. 😎 Ed is taking care of Business. Very Cool!
