Winter is Hard: living in the north woods
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лип 2024
- This is the first winter I've spent at my little house in the woods, and it's proven to have it's challenges. But it's okay! I'm learning and adapting, and figuring things out for the next round (:
I also got the chance to finally use the ice rink! It also had it's set backs, but we had a blast enjoying what we could of it; here's to ironing out the kinks next year!

With everything going on in the world, I can't tell you how much we all appreciate your videos. Your joy and happiness are comforting.
Couldn't agree more..
Couldn’t have said it better!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Aw, in the summer you will be reminiscing about the ice-skating rink, the bonfires in the snow and the hot cups of cocoa. You make the most of each season! That's awesome!
I was so worried your content was going to go south with the addition of a dude. But I think we can all agree that everyone loves Matt. He’s a ridiculous golden retriever of a man and only adds to the amazingness of this channel.
@@crownlands7246 Great comment 🙂
Is he still around or no?
@@HughMadBro yes!! they just made a video camping together :)))
Omg he is a golden retriever 😂
I know I'm late but I just wanted to say that I have dealt with manic depression since I was thirteen and nothing has ever motivated me to get things done like your videos do. I am able to watch you and think to myself "let's just try to get one thing done like Hannah!" and it ends up letting me get way more done too. Anyways you're just such a lovely person and I so appreciate your videos. 🤍
🥺 it really does just take that one thing sometimes to feel accomplished for the day ♥️
Way to go girl! Hug you and proud of you!
me too! hannah inspires me alot
My father used to build us a skating rink every year. He found that building the ice in thin mist like layers made the ice solid with no air pockets and holes in it.
Yeah! There were conflicting theories I read online, but I’m thinking I’ll try that next year!
You had an amazing dad. I did too,but he was gone way too much. Mother was there,but she had ot of hidden pain. Seems nothingcould hide from me,but i tried to fix it and be a child,doesn't work well. But oh how i respect them,and havedeep lovefor them,always,and forever.
They led us to Christ,and all 6 received SALVATION,Main thing! Forever Love,in Jesus name❤❤
Your roof needs to be insulated more than walls to keep the warm side warm and cold side cold. Also a vapour barrier to keep the heat from escaping. I live in Yukon. We get lots of snow lately. Winter always a struggle.
If snow is melting on your roof, there are two possibilities: the external temperature is rising, or your roof is not enough insulated from inside.
Insulation. Lack of, and lack of ventilation along the underside of the roof. If the roof angle has been incorporated into the build, there will need to be better care of the shingles due to heat transfer through the roof. Snow can be an insulating blanket, but if there is a heat transfer to that snow, it will melt.
She's learning the hard way, but so did I.
It’s definitely insulation! I haven’t had time to get to roofing since moving in (I’ve only lived here a year!) but I plan to prioritize it this summer 😊♥️
@@hannahleeduggan I lived in S Lake Tahoe for almost 20 years, girl when I found Heat Tape for my roof/gutter edges……. Saved Me form hours of roof cleaning and no more fear of ice cycles forming damaging the roof. Doesn’t use much electricity either and I bet they have improved a ton since back then it was in 1980-1990’s.😂😂😂🤦♀️🤪🤓
@@hannahleeduggan you go girl! your videos bring me such a peace and warmth. Don't ever stop sharing your wonderful life and sharing the beautiful adventures. its a blessing that i came across your videos a year ago.
Where do I find a man to yell “you look beautiful babe” at me while I’m shoveling snow and ice off my roof?! Hannah you are setting seriously high expectations for my life that idk if I can achieve 😭
The way Matt smiles at you and encourages you is so lovely ❤️
Hannah i just want you to know that i have been following you for a long time and I just love you your a beautiful soul inside and out and you have made me look at life differently. Honestly you have helped me come out of my deep depression, so I really hope you get the chance you read this and know you have helped me and i'm positive so many others!!! Keep being amazing beautiful and full of life!! Your a ray of sunshine in this dark world!!
YOU are amazing, beautiful, and full of life x
This was her parents house? Thought she bought it?
🥲 messages like this keep me going ♥️
@@hannahleeduggan omg im going to cry you replying has totally made my whole year!!!!🥲🥲🥰🥰
Love & Hugs to everybody! 💖 What beautiful comments:)
Hannah and Matt lying down on ice together gave me Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind movie vibes ❄️🤍
I love that you've stayed in your cabin for the winter, it is so beautiful to see
Also lesson for ice rink. Build the ice in layers a couple of mm a time and it should stop the air pockets which cause it to collapse. Get yourself a mini gas powered snow blower as well as it would make life a lot easier making snow paths etc.
As a Minnesotan who lived way too many years battling ice dams, they are crazy hard to deal with. One particular winter, we went away for a week and came back to ice dam hell. I filled panty hose with salt melt and laid them over the dams to create a channel to let the water drain off. And it worked but not before the water did go up under the shingles and we got water in the house. They are a frigging nightmare. Good luck and keep up with the raking. And definitely get some insulation. ❤️
Glad to know I’m not alone 😭 plan is to fix up the roof this summer and get those heat cords placed along the edges so I don’t have to worry about it next year!
Ice dams? Dude, I’m in California… never heard of it. 🤷🏻♀️😀
You can get heated wires for the ends of your roof so you won’t get ice dams! Definitely a good investment if you get bad winters or a lot of snow constantly
MY PLAN FOR NEXT WINTER 😭 older and wiser 🥲
This is the first video that made me smile since russian troops invaded my country.
Watching you living your beautiful peaceful life reminded that we’ll have that back again very soon.
Thank you.
Bless. God keep everyone safe 🤲🏼
Standing with you, Olenka. My daughter-in-law is from 🇺🇦.We are prayiing for you
Stay safe, Olenka! and if you can't stay safe, stay strong. The whole world is standing beside you. I have a Russian ex-husband and his entire family/community were insane, selfish bullies that couldn't be trusted. I'm housebound now, but if there's anything I can ever do from here just ask. 💙💛
Stay safe. My heart hurts for you and your country. Prayers the war will end soon. ❤
Mucha fuerza!!!! Con todo mi cariño ❤️…. España está con vosotros!!!
So much respect for people who live in snow. In CA you don’t think about bringing in he hose for winter or all the other things to survive. It’s beautiful though. I’m so happy you have Matt. He seems like your kindred spirit!
Ice dams have been a particular problem this year in southern Ontario too this is the first year I’ve ever had to deal with it so it might not actually have been part of your childhood experience
Kudos to Matt's dedication to learning to spin and Hannah your as always amazing sparkle of life, fortitude and take action fearless attitude, yes its amazing how you saw it through to build the ice rink, keep realizing your dreams and being you
Why is mat looking for his own place
@@judyrau5309 He said he needs storage and work space. It appears that’s how he’s working out being close to her since he still has his own career and belongings to deal with in his previous place. I think some independence is healthy and agree that he’s a big cutie pie, especially personality wise. Everyone is very protective of Hannah and that’s sweet, but it must be like dating a girl with a thousand dads for Matt 😆
I used to be a competitive figure skater for 15 years, haven’t been on the ice in 2 years now. Watching you two have fun while skating brought back a lot of fun memories. I’ll have to find time to get out again!
Oh my gosh get back out there 🥰 skating is like my equivalent of flying. Brings me so much damn joy
I keep forgetting how long winter last in your area, here in Florida it’s hot and sunny all year long except for hurricane season. I would love to live in your area for about a month. Having said that your property and cabin is gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️. Thank you once again for another great video and I am so glad to see you again. It was so good to see Molly and Matt and very happy you are coming to,Florida to get room.
It’s not always hot and sunny here in Florida. We get about a month of cold weather in February.
I like the idea 💡 of each their own space. Makes it more exciting when you get together ❤.
I agree with you...but, curious as why they chose to go that route? OF COURSE, it’s none of my business... I just wish them the best whether it is in the recent relationship status or something different...💕💕❄️❄️💕💕
@@maconmccoy probably because they’re fairly new. He lives many hours away (at least, I think that’s what she said) so I think buying property closer to her is already a big commitment.
The only reason I know about ice dams is that I’ve watched a ton of This Old House. Lots of attic insulation and modern roofing materials greatly decrease the chances of it occurring. As for the ice rink, the ground warming up underneath is melting it from the underside. Ice rinks are poured on top of sand. If you put down pond liner and sand next year it might do better.
The amount of time you spend outside in the cold wet snow opens my eyes to the possibilities of enjoying winter fully. You inspire me to seek fulfillment in all of the seasons 🥲
Man is it hard. I dislike the cold lol
Between this and Jonna Jinton’s channel, you could be playing on the ice in no
time :)
There is no such thing as bad weather just inappropriate clothing lol
@willow the wisp exactly what I was gonna say. Dress for it and it's great!!!
To make a good ice rink, you need to build up layers of ice by adding water across the whole thing a little bit at a time. Filling it with water like a pool isn't the way.
Loved this!! Makes me look so forward to finally getting my own place to fix up!! So sweet to see you guys interact and best wishes for Matt and that property! Oh and that clip at the end with Matt spitting out the latte! LOL hope he is ok too! Haha
You've got a beautiful gem there Hannah, so pretty with the lights and fire! I really respect your ability to endure winter in such a positive manner, (another southern Ontarian here) and I'm cold all the time! ❄️👍👋🇨🇦
Thank you thank you for staying at the cabin (almost) all winter! You helped keep my winter warm fuzzies all season long! Have fun in Florida! xo
I haven’t seen a new video in a long time! Great to see you happy and healthy! Enjoy Florida ☀️
Your videos make me so happy! They have been here for me through some really dark times! You are such a light in those times! Keep being you and thank you for sharing !
The skating footage literally could have been from a movie or something. So magical! 😊
How much fun to have your own ice skating rink and be young enough to enjoy it❤. Many moons ago I used to enjoy the freedom of gliding over the ice at our small town lake with friends. You have brought back some beautiful fun memories. Thank you. I so enjoy watching you and Matt, both of you have such cute dimples, smiles and a zest for life. God bless❤
This video is the sweetest in so many ways. Loved it all.
This was my favorite video. Just simply enjoying winter at your cabin. I hope Matt can get that adorable place, it's perfect!
What a special video!!! So much going on and such innocent fun!!! I’m so happy to see that not only do you work hard but you’re sure to play just as hard!!! Such a beautiful sight in these crazy times we’re living in right now!! You make me feel young again just watching you all!!! Enjoy your time in Florida 💕
Good to see your cottage and compound. Truly becominga year-round home.
Diy Zamboni was a clever attempt at fixing ice rink. Enjoy Florida. Stay well. TY for sharing your adventures.
Winter is hard but spring is SO close now. Currently we are tapping trees for sap and syrup making. It's the best way to round out the end of a long winter, keeps you busy and before you know it. BOOM. Spring.
Beautiful video Hannah, thanks for taking us along. The cabin looks warm and cozy , the ice rink looks like fun and its nice to see you happy and surrounded by those who love you. Your videos are inspiring and a Great way to spend a little time on Sunday 💗🌟👍
I live in the tropics and the amount of work it takes to simply exist in the snow looks exhausting. That being said, it's so insanely beautiful and the ice skating looks magical. I love seeing your winter vids because it takes me back to my childhood and out of reality and I love that 💕
I've always lived in Australia so I've only seen snow a couple of times when I've gone skiing. I know you say its hard but damn its beautiful. I wish I could experience a full winter in snow like that just once in my life
I'd love to see a video about living in a cabin things you have to have on hand. Like your gear (clothes/shoes), the roof shovel, propane, etc. I'm moving to Alaska (from California! Going to be a weather shock for sure lol) and watching this video I learned so much haha. And you're such a handy and clever person so I'm sure you would have good recommendations/advice for anyone :)
I love seeing everything!! You two are so lovely.
Hanna thank you it looks so magical the snow your cabins and you and Matt
This is just too precious! How cool.
Thanks Hannah and Matt, for brightening my day!
🍃🤗🍃
Hannah, You're such a trooper dealing so cheerfully with all the obstacles of living in the north. I love your devotion to the magical little ice rink. Way to go learning to spin, Matt. I grew up in rural Wisconsin and skated every day in the winter but I never learned to spin. The little house for sale is a great find and though I hope the other buyer doesn't get it, i like seeing you two living together at your place so either way is good.
You are pure joy, Hannah and I love your beautiful relationship with Matt!! Thank you for always sharing and uplifting humanity in the purest, simplest way. 💗🙏🏻💫
Thank you so much for your video!!! It is so calming watching you!! I look forward to seeing your videos each week! ❤️
I love the story of your videos , it inspires me to want to travel through different places.Thanks to you I started to love nature and all the landscapes that surround me .🤗💚
Every week I look forward to your videos - they are so lovely, fun, and great to watch! It's a nice escape to vicariously experience the outdoors and cabin life. Keep up the wonderful work and thank you for what you do!
Last winter 🥶 during Texas Arctic blast I had ice damming on two parts of my roof. My roof is still not fixed. I had my roof leak in two places, 2 pipes burst, and my ceiling cave in, in two places. It’s been a year and a month still going through construction. Love your videos. I have a migraine today. It made me smile. Y’all are too cute 🥰. Blessings and Peace ✝️❤️
Glad winter is coming to an end
Wow, I want half of your energy and ability to do anything! You Rock Girl!!
Wow! You've made that place sooo Beautiful; It's amazing...
Love watching you guys. Love the energy! soo sweet. If you want to keep your toes from getting cold put black pepper in your skates!... Seriously, it keeps your toes from freezing. It keeps your feet warm. My mom taught me that! First generation Canadian I am. Both parents from Canada. Learned a lot about keeping warm threw them. Seriously try the black pepper. It really works!
What!!!! I’ll have to try that 😂 I hope you’re not pulling my leg cause I want warm toes so bad
@@hannahleeduggan Cayenne pepper even better!
Lol! Love that you guys are enjoying the roof rake! They became so popular here in Connecticut in 2011 because we had these huge series of snow storms that caused a lot of people with flat roofs to cave in. Then everyone ran out to get one. At that point, we couldn't find one in stores anymore, so I got my Dad one off of Amazon and he was out using it every storm even though our roof isn't flat.
Way to go Hanna and your Sister getting the ice rink working and making fun memories there!!
So happy for you and all the progress you’ve made over the past few years, so fun to watch
You have totally inspired me to get out at winter time and build a fire….marshmallows, family, fun. Thank you for shining a light into our lives at times like we are living in at the mo. Xxx
You two aren't just
existing in the snowy cold, your having so much fun. I enjoyed watching your video. You are such a pioneer. I'm amazed to see what you will come up with next.
I have to admit that watching your life has become one of my favorite vlogs ❤️ and I can’t wait to see the next one and the next one! You are so natural and amazing (:
the amount of love i have for this woman is insane thank you for always making my day
Hannah you take good care of your man. You have no idea just how important this means in life. Blessings to you both.
Wonderful ❤ Such gorgeous goofing around and making the most of your Midwest winter.
And now your problem in Fla. already. Lovely times.
I feel so lame admitting this, but I watch your videos every morning at 7:30 am as soon as my son goes off to school and I sit down with my coffee. It's gotten so bad that I will sit for hours watching your videos, so now I have to limit myself to one or two videos so I dont "waste" my whole day away 😅 But I love your videos so much and I click on every single ad, I also let the ads play as well to support you! I am older than you but you inspire me every day! I actually am interested in picking up sewing because of you, and I was never interested in that before. 😊
😁👍
The wood stove looks great and is such a good addition. Love that you have the added benefit of cooking on it! 🙂
Your videos are so uplifting and inspiring, thank you Hannah! ♥️
So happy you and Matt have been able to escape to the warmer climates. Have a great time.
Watching you clean the roof was very meditating for me ! I am also sitting here in shorts and a tank top ! I love watching your videos from van life to cabin life .
I absolutely adore him for you and it gives me the biggest smile that he tries WHATEVER you’re into hannah ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hannah your videos bring me such comfort, I legitimately wait to watch your new uploads until I’ve made dinner so that I can sit down, eat and watch your new content. That or try to not watch them for awhile so I can binge them like a tv show. You inspire me to lead this type of life smm & I can’t thank you enough for literally just continuing to make content
I love your videos!! Some days I’m living vicariously while watching your videos. You are playful, resourceful, funny and just what people need to see right now🥰. Don’t stop making your awesome videos ✌️🤩
This is so beautiful what you do. How much effort you bring into your life, to make it shiny and magical. For sure you also face difficulties as we all do but you focus on the good things. Thats so adorable and engaging to all of us!!!
Your videos give off such positive energy. I love how raw and genuine your uploads are.Your channel is my safe space ;)
You're one of my favorite UA-camrs. I love that I never know what to expect! An ice rink in your yard! Wow, you always amaze me 💗😊⛸
The video was really enjoyable to watch. Hannah, you're so smart and innovative. It was like watching a movie. Matt did well with the skates. Much love.❤
This vid is beautifully crafted and makes me feel your fight to stay warm. I'm not a fan of the freezing temps! 🥶 A few years ago, I moved down south for the warm weather. So I totes feel why your headed to warmer weather FL. I hope you had a blast on your couple's getaway 🌞 🏖🍹
Hannah the fastest way of getting the snow off the roof is to get a moderately strong rope and a plastic 50ml bottle. Fill the bottle with water and leave it overnight to freeze. Tie rope to bottle. Throw bottle over roof. One person either side of rope and hacksaw underneath snow across roof and snow will slough off the roof. Do that with all the roof. Should take no time or energy at all.
So wait, use a hacksaw to pull snow off the roof? Sounds like it’d tear up your roof
@@sinjon I think they might mean to do a hacksaw motion under the snow
Your life is so aesthetic.
Thank you for making the content that you do. Watching your videos is like a warm hug ☺️
This video is helping me a lot to look at the bright side of life. Thank you Hannah! ❤️ lots of love from the Netherlands 💕 xxx
you and Matt are so cute together both so enthusistic and work well together, its really nice to see that!
The dedication Mat put into doing spins on ice cating is remarkable 😄..hanna, you've chosen a good one
I just can’t get my head around the cold and snow! Just wow …. Love from Australia 🇦🇺 🦘
This video felt like a hug. A much needed one, Thank you ☺️
Child it was wonderful from beginning to end. Thank you and Matt and your sister for a great video. You da best !
Great video Hannah. Oh my what a lot of snow. Here I Scotland we have had less snow for Winter sports this year. I hope Matt gets his wee house it looks so nice. You guys are a breath of fresh air. Well l hope you all enjoy your trip to the sun, l look forward to seeing your next video in sunny heaven, take care lol Alioban xx
