Because I love dirt, trees and the outdoors so very, very much, your videos always cheer me up! Even more so now that I'm cooped up at home. Also, thank you for not swearing on your vids. It's always nice to see something that is clean and refreshing and not laden with derogatory comments or nonsensical verbiage. This is one of the few channels I subscribe to that I wholeheartedly enjoy! So please continue your uploads and a big hello from Southern California!
