You do such pretty painting of plants and flowers, you should think about painting some of them on those cabinets. It would look nice against the black paint.
A little tip for keeping paint from drying out. After tapping the lid down tip the can upside down then set it right side up again. The paint on the lid will dry in any bad seal areas and seal the lid perfectly.
Seeing a young man improve his homestead and toil for food is 100% worth hitting the like button. GREAT JOB!!! Now let's split a few fire logs and make some rustic front steps!
the use of the gravel look's epic Mick, make it look so clean around the camp nice job , looking forward to your shower build . Nice find with the barrel !. Now that will come in handy , The fire pit area is going to look great love how the stones are laid well done . thanks for bringing us along .
Nice path to the woods and the fire pit looks good. Have you ever thought of widening the path to your cabin so that you could drive your car up closer to it? That would save a lot of time and energy with everything you have to carry from car to cabin. Just a suggestion.
I live a little like this in Nevada and I use a snow sled all day in summer or winter it’s the best thing to have a move fire wood,rocks,trash everything I highly recommend getting one and when you get some money once you get a 4 wheeler and a sled you will never go back
Good work, Mick! That's some hard work-pulling weeds, etc...especially with your bare hands! Your walkways look great--the bigger stones around the house and down the paths look very "fairy-tale" 👑 You've done a great job!! Thanks for the video!
Mick, Ace and I really enjoy your channel. Put out your episode as time permits, we will be here. Wonderful that you are getting there bit by bit. One step forward at a time. Way to grab the barrel. Have a great week! Dee
Great video. Love watching your home improvements and inspire me to get moving on my own projects. The music is pleasing too. Blessing today and always.
I could sit here and watch you feed a campfire and talk about random projects or whatever came up . Love the content and love what you're doing with the place. Keep it up Bud 😊
never apologize for the content of your videos! We’ve all stuck around to see whatever you do no matter the scale. And im sure i speak for others when i say sometimes these videos where you start or complete projects or just do chores are relaxing and fun to watch
Great job! I always look forward to seeing what you are up to. I would love some longer videos if ever you had the time, but I know you are busy. I just really enjoy the videos. Have a great week!
Your place is looking nice. You're making good progress. You might think about getting the fire wood going for winter so that this winter isn't so hard on you. God bless. Keep up the good work. 🏕️
Even the day-to-day simple things that show what it's really like living like you are, can be fun to watch. It's a peek into your day-to-day life. Thank you for sharing, Mick. Stay safe and take care.
Hi Mick. Everything is coming along nicely. Small steps and before you know it each project will be finished. I really love your pathway - beautiful. Nice find, one man's trash is another's treasure!! Over the years we have used what we have, not always the 'proper' materials recommended, and things have turned out ok. You are an amazing young man who is not afraid of hard work. You will be rewarded when looking back on everything you have achieved. Take care. 😊❤👩🦽
Mick, have you read Thoreau’s “On Walden Pond”? It’s not Alaska - but your adventures remind me of his. And if you ever just want to hold your UA-cam audience in thrall, I’m certain reading aloud passages from Thoreau in your melodious voice would be a hit - especially during those winter months when other projects are thin on the ground… or buried in snow 😄 -V
Mick, you are doing great. Take time to step back and look at all you have accomplished! I love your stone pathways. They look great and those stones on the borders, make them look finished and will help keep the gravel in place. Appreciate the progress you have made and just keep taking a step at a time. You are making great progress on the cabin and the grounds surrounding it. I enjoy your videos and they remind me there is still work to be done around my cabin in the woods. There will always be projects. No matter where you live or what you are doing.
Many hardware stores that mix paint, have a mis tint area. I have found discounted quality gallons often. Another hint is to cover your wet brushes in plastic and put in frigerstor so you dont have to clean brush between coats. I enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing!
It shines through that you have a lot of your mother's creative spirit. I love that. Both of your parents are icons, I hope your leaning on them for practical advice. They know Alaska, dang, that has to be hard. Proud of every step you make moving forward!
Glad to see you busy and improving your site around the cabin. Weeds are really persistent. Hopefully, you won't have to be pulling them constantly! Thanks for the update.
That's the only way we have ever started a burn pile fire. Good job. We always go with the most convenient and fastest way to do things regarding property clean up and all our friends do the same.
I love that gravel walkway, and the stones along the edges make it look so nice. I can’t wait to see the patio and the finished fire pit. I’m glad you included the disclaimer about starting your fire with what looked like gasoline. My ex-husband got some nasty burns from trying a similar method to get rid of some scrub brush on his family property. Please be extra careful.
Having watched your vids for a few months, I have to say...for somebody so young, it is hard not to admire someone who has decided what they want to do with their life (now) and what price you are willing to pay. Keep forging forward young man, I am looking forward to watching.
I’m baffled by some of the negative comments on this channel . He is a young kid just trying to find his way and it’s his way to find. Some of you need to get a life of your own and stop criticizing someone for trying to make a dream come true. No one is perfect . Mick you are a wonderful breath of fresh air on here and I wish nothing but the very best for you! Love your channel and will continue to watch ! ❤

Hello Mick: way to go, the land and the cabin are starting to look great. You are starting to make good decisions for your land. You have to take small steps and before you know it your project list will almost be taken care of. Break up the day and try to get a few items taken care of each day and start. You are making great strides and when you stop and look back at what you did, wow. Hang in there and have fun but your are doing a very good job.
Looking great. You're making progress and looking snazzy. I really like the idea about extending the stones from the fireplace that's pretty cool. Oh and I love the Christmas present.
Hey Mick, you are doing an amazing job on your homestead, I’m sure your parents are proud of what you have achieved in such a short time, I think that you have surprised a lot of us on your dedication and creativity, take care.X💕🧺
i smile all the way thru your videos, they're so positive I love you range of interests and skills, and getting into stuff you know nothing about By the time anyone finds out you can't do something, ...... you ARE doing it lol And what other way of starting fires is there haha, it's my go to method for burning green, or hard to ignite stuff too
Love your videos. Enjoying the journey with you. Pls don’t feel pressure from viewers to buy things or do things. Just enjoying watching you fill your days, no matter how much or little you “achieve”, thanks for making the effort to make these videos, they are great! :)
I enjoy your channel.Thanks for sharing.Somebody suggested that you need a wheel barrow.Good idea.But maybe better would be one of those heavy duty garden wagons like what Costco sells.And maybe one could adapt skis on it for winter time.Just a thought?
You need a wheelbarrow
Be sure to get a wheelbarrow with solid rubber tires. The inflatable type are a nightmare on rough terrain.
Exactly what I was thinking! I thought “I need to send him a wheelbarrow”!
I was thinking the same thing!
Mechanical advantage wherever possible. But his car isn’t a pickup truck.😢
You can buy him one...
Just keeps on looking better and better, Mick. Keep up the good work.
You do such pretty painting of plants and flowers, you should think about painting some of them on those cabinets. It would look nice against the black paint.
And on the rocks
Very nice work on the stonework around fire pit
Your projects always improve your surroundings so much.

Put nicely. 🙂. Not a bad suggestion. 🙂
Its really looking good Mick. And your outdoor firepit is gorgeous. I love the way you laid the rocks.
I like the fire pit! And I'm glad you added the 'toil for your food' ending.
The fire pit is looking good!
I like the stone you're putting around the house!
Thanks for sharing!
Be happy!
Stay safe!
Dude, I'm just amazed at everything you've done so far! I know it's hard, but if you set your mind to it, it will all get done. Good Luck!
He makes it look easy
@@llorylloyd What part exactly?
I live a little like this in Nevada and I use a snow sled all day in summer or winter it’s the best thing to have a move fire wood,rocks,trash everything I highly recommend getting one and when you get some money once you get a 4 wheeler and a sled you will never go back
It all is looking really nice!! Enjoying all your videos. God Bless you always

Mick, Ace and I really enjoy your channel. Put out your episode as time permits, we will be here. Wonderful that you are getting there bit by bit. One step forward at a time. Way to grab the barrel. Have a great week! Dee
Great video. Love watching your home improvements and inspire me to get moving on my own projects. The music is pleasing too. Blessing today and always.
If your siding is too short on the back, you put extra wide trim boards on the corners and call it a design enhancement.
I could sit here and watch you feed a campfire and talk about random projects or whatever came up . Love the content and love what you're doing with the place. Keep it up Bud 😊
Love seeing all the progress you’ve made since the beginning, great work!!
You're doing great. the gravel path,your story telling and music...spot on!
never apologize for the content of your videos! We’ve all stuck around to see whatever you do no matter the scale. And im sure i speak for others when i say sometimes these videos where you start or complete projects or just do chores are relaxing and fun to watch

I just love how excited you are for road barrels!
Glad toes you are finishing some outside projects. The path and fire pit look really nice.
Even the day-to-day simple things that show what it's really like living like you are, can be fun to watch. It's a peek into your day-to-day life. Thank you for sharing, Mick. Stay safe and take care.
You need to help yourself and buy a wheelbarrow!!! Glad you're back! ❤
I love the looks of that firepit you are making. And you did a good bit of work in this video.
Love seeing your videos
Great work, Mick! You are an inspiration to a cohort of recent graduates... many of whom are struggling to find their way. Thanks for braving it!
The tidying, weeding and gravel…two thumbs up!

I've enjoyed this video so much that this is the 3rd time I've watched. I love what you've done to the outside. It looks so nice and neat. God Bless.
One step at a time! Keep up the good work Mick! 🤗😁
I love the look of your path. Your place is sure shaping up. What a joy to see develop.
Your walkway turned out beautiful!
You're very inspiring Mick. New subscriber from your mom's channel.
Watching these adventures have been Great! Glad to see more of it! 😎
Looking better and better ! You are extremely talented!
Nice to see you actively engaging in your Alaska cabin! Keep Going~~All looks GOOD👍👍
Your doing a good job,keep going ,every little bit done helps the look off the place.Even tidying around the place.👍
Love the progress you are making! Always happy seeing what you have done. Enjoy your summer, winter comes quickly.
Your path is brilliant.
Looking Good!!! The gravel and stones are beautiful and profoundly sensible. 👍 -V

Neet fire 🔥 pit . I have to redo mine. Thanks for the idea
LOL! 😂 Road Barrels are in season! 🤣 Glad to see you back, Mick! I will continue to toil.

That walking path looks amazing !!
It shines through that you have a lot of your mother's creative spirit. I love that. Both of your parents are icons, I hope your leaning on them for practical advice. They know Alaska, dang, that has to be hard. Proud of every step you make moving forward!
River rocks are such a nice touch of character
Loving all of your improvements 👍🏻👍🏻
get a propane roofing torch for the weeds and you'll save your back and knees the effort of weeding gravel every week
Glad to see you busy and improving your site around the cabin. Weeds are really persistent. Hopefully, you won't have to be pulling them constantly! Thanks for the update.

Improvements look great!
The cabin and landscape is looking great Mick! You’re getting what my mamma called “sticktuitiveness”. Great job!❤❤❤
Great job Mick! Keep up the good work
Every bit of work is progress! I know the "by hand, bit by bit" waiting for available funds. Your propery is looking great!
I love that gravel walkway, and the stones along the edges make it look so nice. I can’t wait to see the patio and the finished fire pit.
I’m glad you included the disclaimer about starting your fire with what looked like gasoline. My ex-husband got some nasty burns from trying a similar method to get rid of some scrub brush on his family property. Please be extra careful.
Do some fishing catch and cook/prep, maybe some hunting as well. Maybe what you eat, how you cook your meals.
You need a wheel barrow my man…they are game changers.
Wonderful video and you are doing a great job on your home
Keep it up youngin. Best wishes 😊
Having watched your vids for a few months, I have to say...for somebody so young, it is hard not to admire someone who has decided what they want to do with their life (now) and what price you are willing to pay. Keep forging forward young man, I am looking forward to watching.
The property is looking good. Looking forward to your future videos! All the best, Mick!
I watched it twice. Just because. Such a dedicated young man.
It’s looking good Mick! Nice job with the little details that makes the place pop! Keep up the good work!
“Toil for your food.” Made me so happy! 😊
your property is looking better every video cheer and best wishes from Tasmania
love the fire pit mick
Nice fire pit. You’re getting things done. Before winter❤

Great video as always. You are doing a wonderful job on your property, looking nice...
Rome was not built in a day. Brick by brick. Bucket of gravel by bucket of gravel. 👍🏼
The place is looking good. Every video I see some lovely improvements. Good job. Keep up the good work
Yay! A new Mick video!
❤️🙏🏼
You made good progress in your video today, and I really love your fire pit‼️👍😊
Great progress; thanks for sharing! You’re inspiring to many young people! Blessings to everyone 🤗🇨🇦

A hand-pulled utility wagon to tote things would help efficiency! (Not expensive.) ;)
i smile all the way thru your videos, they're so positive
I love you range of interests and skills, and getting into stuff you know nothing about
By the time anyone finds out you can't do something, ...... you ARE doing it lol
And what other way of starting fires is there haha, it's my go to method for burning green, or hard to ignite stuff too
Awesome.
Love your videos
