Mike, I am in total awe of you and Melissa at the care and compassion you show Hunter. You guys are truly blessings and wonderful examples of family and good folks. I think Hunter might get his energy from you, being that you can get more accomplished in 8hrs than most in 24. Tammy and I always look forward to seeing your videos. Thank you for your dedication to your family, your hard work ethic and being an honest good fella. You set the bar high for us men who watch you. God speed to you and your family. Keep doing what you do, you make the world a better place. Blessings and prayers coming to you from Chapmansboro TN.
Really surprises myself how other people try to tell you how to live your life. Everyone has their own way of doing things. If it works for you ,,, go for it. I really thank you for letting us be apart of your life!!! Keep doing what you are doing my wife and I love it!!!!! 👍👍👍
Sounds like a tuff night Mike…I understand your comment on “me time” and not having to constantly divide your attention between Hunter and whatever you might be involved with. Unfortunately my wife has Dementia, her sleep schedule is upside down that affects so much. You, Melissa and Hunters siblings are an inspiration in dealing with keeping Hunter safe and Loved.
Hey Mike, I watched Levi's video. Very good video, brought back many, many memories of me and a couple boys in the neighborhood, camping out in the forest, in the snow, all year round really. Absolutely loved Ty out there helping dad, good stuff man, good stuff. Now you, I had the thought as you were on the 4 wheeler, gas it Mike, gas it!!! Then, no, no, don't gas it!! Don't. I pictured you crashing and being laid up a week, and I'd have to go a week without your post. No, you be safe, always be safe. We need you. Gosh, I've been watching you for so many years, I'm addicted to your channel. I'm glad your 4 wheeler goes good and fast in the snow, you take it out as often as you want, just please be careful. Why the heck do you not park all your cars in the garage? Are you nuts? Geezers, people just don't think. I knew why, all along. I never thought you should make room for the vehicles, but I have thought it would serve y'all well if you built a nice shed to park all your vehicles under, you know, just a roof over them, no walls. Man, you have way too much great stuff in the house garage and in the HQ to bring in all the muck from under your vehicles. A shed would be nice, but you only have so much room. It would have to be near the house where you park now. My thinking is not to park under a shed to protect the finish of the vehicles, but to keep y'all dry loading up to go somewhere, you, not the vehicle. But, hey, matters not to me where you park. Just keep the camera's running. I'm addicted to OWTM. I love y'all. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Good stuff, really good stuff.
Hi Mike, thanks for showing me the mini skid and its capabilities. I had a company take out 14 huge trees this year. They have a mini skip. Impressed me so much I bought one. I didn't want to spend the $40 to $60K for a domestic model, so I ordered one from Shandong China from a company called Derette. It's their top of the line called a V1000. You can get them with a Kubota or a Perkins diesel. I bought the Perkins because of my long history with that company. My sales rep is Dean Sun. It was a great experience from start to delivery. I can't believe the quality of this little machine. I'll send an update when I get more time on it. In the meantime thanks again for all your videos and stay warm! Shalom/gw
Another benefit of leaving them in open, when it snows, is you can gather snow for snow ice cream easier. The weather people are also saying that round two for us is coming this weekend. Who knows, it might even snow.
Mike interesting comment on eating outside. I’m 83 grew up and worked most of my younger years in a logging family in No Minnesota. Spending most of our time outside year around a picnic was not a family event unless it was a the church, dad use to say have a picnic every day out of the lunch box. Take care , god bless and stay warm.
Great Dad, you truly are so keep the vehicle anywhere you want, you earned it. The full moon thing is real. My wife is a retried nurse and every time there is a full moon I get a nurse full moon story or 2 or more. If it was a slow night on her floor and it was a full moon she would start reorganizing the work/storage areas in her ward. She did that for years commenting "full moon, time to clear this place up" while she was doing that the physic would call looking for help. She did that for years before one of the other nurses figured that was her way to avoid going up on a full moon. Any other time she was willing to go up and help.
Another good video I love taking the ride with you on your little vehicle through the woods. It was so pretty and seeing those two little dears thank you for sharing it.❤
Loved the quad tour of the property, it has been a long time since you have done that and I never recall you doing a property tour with snow. Thanks Mike.
Mike I agree. I have 2 attached garages and none of the vehicles are inside. Gave my wife a remote start for her car. I hate having all the winter junk on the garage floors.
Hello Mike, yes it was a full moon called wolf moon.. I watched Levi's video, it was awesome to see Ty doing so much to help get things done. Can't wait to see the part 2..
It amazes me how much you Morgans get accomplished during your day to day life all with having a son with autism ......great hard working family keep it going!!!!!
I live in MN. Moved into a new house on a lake 2 years ago. Best thing is that the garage has a drain in the floor. Nice, much better than the flat floor with no drain, water use to run every where at the old house.
I run a auto repair shop here in Northern Lower Michigan and we can tell by the undercarriage of vehicles that get parked in a heated garage. The slopes drips off leaving the salt to eat away at the undercarriage. I had a beautiful truck in one day and asked the gentleman if he'd like to see the undercarriage of his truck while it was on the lift. He literally had tears in his eyes after seeing what the salt did to his vehicle. Gas tank straps about gone, transmission and engine oil cooler lines corroded insanely. Transmission pan rotted and brake lines ready to blow at any moment. Did you know there's 40+ feet of brake lines on a Silverado?
Hi Mike, I usually don't comment, but your observation of the full moon is on point. I worked in nursing facilities for 30 years. Everyone knew when it was a full moon. Lots of crazy memories but I wouldn't change it for anything. I love the way you and Melissa care for Hunter. I have a grandson with autism. He's going to be 21 next month. He is verbal, but very repetitive in his speech and actions. Bless you and your family. Keep those good videos coming.
Morning Mike, I watch Ryan Hall too. He is usually right on. The do a lot for people who have been hit by storms too. We have tornados here where we live, and I have seen the storm chasers that work with Ryan here. We got about 8.5" of snow out of this last snow storm. I'm ready for SPRING... LOL
Mike: I bought a house in 2005 or so, in Dayton, OH, and the prev owners both worked full tiime, and had pulled their vehicles into the garage of this circa 1964, VERY well built home, and the concrete in the 2-car garage, right under the outline of the 2 cars, was pitted, terribly, you easily see all the DAMAGE from the melting ice / snow / salt, over the 40+ years !!!!
Good morning Mike, I saw the video that Levi posted of him spending the night out in the snow. That Ty his is a little trooper helping Levi make his shelter. That was so neat of a father and son doing something together and at the same time teaching Ty about the outdoors.
GOOOOOOOD FREEZING MORNING TO MY FELLOW OWTM’s FANS/FOLLOWERS!!!!…Mike thanks for the ride along through the woods…I watched Levi’s video last evening. Oh to be young again!! Stay warm & tap a nap 😴 Have a day HELLOOOO HUNTER 😊
I only commented on the garage parking is especially convenient when the windows have thick ice. Also, my cars go into a non heated garage so while there is some thaw there isn’t much. To each his own. Live it up!
Mike, my parents absolutely understand your feelings! I had a beloved brother who would have unexpected seizures, some nasty ones during the night...my parents spent many sleepless nights! We send our love and prayers your way!
@ / good afternoon friend , a pretty good day in the wrapping up stage of finishing a clients powder room bathroom , finished the second coat of paint today just have to put back a fan hood cover an switch covers tomorrow and get the pay check 😸😸 , hope your days been a good one 👍🙏🙏
Mike I am surprised that you have not put hydrolic angle cylinders on black blade on your tractor. With my injury to my foot i could just see falling when getting on and off the tractor all the time. So I bought a rear blade with power angle 2 years ago and had 2 rear remote circuits installed. It is a game changer. You can install the angle kit yourself with no problem.
Yes the moon was full. I agree I affects everyone in one way or another. I bought my house 8 years ago and the salt/road treatment really wrecks concrete. I don't go out sometimes for days not to mention scraping windows so parking in the garage is for me.
You are correct on the full moon Mike. I heard it called " a wolf moon". Agree with you 100% on the camping thing. I would do "glamping" with a motor home, but I like my ac in the summer and heat in winter. Like you, i work outside sunrise to sunset so I am not into sleeping outside. Thanks Mike
I live up here by Erie, PA, about 30 miles south , I keep my car in the garage and it has 170,00 miles on it and still runs great, and I use it every summer to haul a trailer loaded with firewood, I keep my snow thrower in the garage, have had it for 24 years and it still works great, lawn tractor has it's own spot in the garage, it cuts grass, rakes leaves and plows snow, pretty much works all year, had it for over 13 years and still does the jobs I need it to do. Nice to be able to buy new equipment every couple years. LOL
You're right about snow melt in the garage. Wise to have a floor drain in place for that. You could install a awning off the front of the garage? That's what a lot of people do to protect the vehicles from the elements.
Hi Mike, I think it's funny that so many people have room in their garages to park cars.... I guess they don't get outside much, my garage has 2 motorcycles, a quad, mowers, a snowblower and too many tools.... the cars and trucks sleep outside
Hello! 😊 When I lived in Ohio I kept my first car in a warm garage. It rusted so bad from the salt that it cracked in half from frame damage. Heat is a catalyst for most chemical reactions.
Morning David, sent a note to Mike, looks like it went into never never land? Nicer temperatures, still not a lot of sun... enjoy... oh, see it just showed up?
@@peteatthefarm4459Hi Pete, Sometimes something goes wrong with the comments. I know that if I post one when an AD is playing, it hardly ever goes thru. Anyway, have a great Ontario day! 👍
When you was talking about the laundry and Hunter. I was thinking how you said your clothes are always clean the next day. It made me smile. You're a good family. Very smart folks. As most say on here. Do however and whatever you want. Is that Ryan Hall from Pikeville Kentucky?
Full moon 🌕. My wife is a nurse and as long as I can remember she has hated to work a night or nights on or around a full moon. She says it does affect the patients.
Good morning Mike. I watched Levi's video earlier this morning. I enjoyed it very much. I'm getting too old to do that sort of thing anymore. So it did bring back a few memories from days gone by. Sounds like you were pretty busy. Well, God bless and have a wonderful day. 👍👍🙂
Great video with your son camping without a tent…. I’ve done that before myself. I was in the scouts and it was not quite that cold, but it’s definitely a challenge . As far as everybody going crazy about you blowing snow off the cars, that’s over the edge. That’s why we now have ceramic coatings… and PPF for vehicles these days. Hope Hunter gets some rest, so you and Melissa can recharge. Best wishes from cold W/ North Carolina.
Yes sir - that is cold for sure.. The 4 wheeler ride was a winter wonder land trip. Well if it stays cold - real cold no MUD....that's a blessing. About the snow on the vehicles, when [pretty rare] it snows here your not going to blow it off. The snow here in SE Texas when it happens, it freezes more like sleet and ice. Besides, the Ceramic Coating is probably great defense for Auto protection. And what most people do not get, took me a minute, Mike, you know what your doing. Everything, almost, is like a spread sheet of numbers, math. Even when i see something i do not understand why you do it, i wait, because i KLNOW the life lesson is coming.. :) Thanks Mike it is a great ride on your channel, as well as all the Morgan's channels. ❤💯🙏
I saw that you keep your cars and trucks outside and I told my wife I bet there is no room. I know because I have not parked in my garage for years. I have a small cnc router on one side and other stuff on the other. Have to move things so I can work on my Polaris 500. Watched the camping video and loved it. Wish I had the ambition to do that but I am 69 and like my bed more 😂 Cold just north of Detroit today too.
Morning from ct. been dealing with road salt and my trucks 45,000 miles on my first f350 plowing and it was new when I got it. would get rusted so bad. The salt is terrible to concrete it ruined a granit and cement step of mine just from the little bit of salt to melt the ice on it. Some people don’t realize that it does that. You can see the damage salt does going over the Newport bridge. It’s concrete. 30 some of years ago I learned the snow rake is essential around my place. No more ice dams , l only go up a foot or 2 on most of my roofs. My horse barn doesn’t seem to need it, barn location most likely and it has gutters. Bob
Hi Mike. I agree. As a retired small family farmer of 23yrs. I will get very tired at the last 9yrs. I couldn't sleep in 14 yrs. I completely understand tiredness. 😴😴😴😴 Yes. The wolf moon. Some winter the ice & snow is a constant battle. Then sleeping outside Levi & Christian. Crazy! 🙃🙃🙃🙃🤔🤔🤔🤔 I ❤camping. Just not in winter seasons. I agree about winter / vehicles/ garage. That salt is so nasty. Stains everything. Well. Thanks Mike. Say Hi to Melissa, Melissa's dad, Eva, Hunter, Levi, Kate, Tyler, & Hannah. Have a good Wednesday night the 15th. 🥰😊😉🥶👍❤️💜⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌬🌫
I really like your Snow Additude which you can call Snowatude, I live in Southern AZ, when it snows here you just wait an hour or so and it melts, I own zero snow shovel or snow removal equip of anykind 😀 Tom
The back end of the ATV trying to pass you is one of the negatives about Polaris's CVT, no engine braking....just freewheels down the hills. That was one thing I liked about my Yamaha Grizzly 450 and Yamaha Rhino 700, the one way clutch in the CVT allowed for engine braking...and going down hills in snow, mud, etc. in 4WD you had 4 wheel engine braking. Hmm, you probably need to contact your Vermeer dealer and get the heater fixed on that thing HAHA!!! You don't park your cars in your garage, and neither do several hundred thousand other people LOL. I don't even have a garage and glad I don't, otherwise it would be full of stuff too and couldn't get a vehicle in it anyhow HAHA!!. I just have a carport that's half cluttered with stuff I still need to sort through and put away once I get the storage shed cleaned out and organized....having to go through 30+ years of my grandparents stuff since they have both passed away; grandpa about a year ago now....is quite the tedious process, there's so much stuff to go through, sort out, give to family, etc. Slowly making process, its just hard when you go through that stuff and brings back memory after memory. Being able to put my vehicles up on the carport at least keeps the windows from being frosted over in the mornings at least. Having them in a garage I mean would be really nice, but for my super duty, like you it wouldn't fit in the garage anyhow as the garages back in the 70's when my house was built weren't very big to begin with full size trucks don't fit in them, and most weren't deep enough to get a full size truck into and be able to close the door anyhow.
Looks like a beautiful ride on the four wheeler. I miss my four wheeler I had one years ago. I sold it because I rarely rode it. There was a short span if I was even caught on county road with it I would get pulled over so it just wasn’t worth it to me going from one property to another having to loading up all the time but now it’s crazy people just ride them all over the place, but then you would get a ticket in five seconds flat for being on the road. I can understand where if you have responsibilities with your family how you can want some alone time at night Nothing crazy about that. As far as the camping we ever travel trailer and we use it multiple times a year here in Kentucky at LBL. I’m with u though tent camping is definitely less desirable. Maybe when you’re young, but when you get older, not so much especially for me my wife doesn’t like it either. We’re waiting on this super cold spell to come in here in Western Kentucky or it supposed to get close to zero. God Bless
Funny you talked about the full moon. My wife that has brain health issues and usually sleeps like a log was up acting odd last night about midnight too.! Normal today. Yes, you have to get your quiet time or you get wore out from their frequent "emergencies". I feel ya!
Checked out Ryan. Like him!!! Thanks for that! Hunter??? You and M are pure human parents!!! Thank you for that, Wonderful to see!!! A+ you two!!! 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎
Mike, full moon. I worked for the telephone company for 43 years, and yes, the full moon does something to some people. We could always tell when it was a full moon because we would get the most ridiculous calls from people, and they would really be bent out of shape over the littlest things. We could count on it with some of the people that we would get a call or two from them every full moon. The full moon does have some control over some people. J.R.
That looked like slippery ride , Mike . It looked like fun . You had the deer running . . I know what you mean . I can't put a vehicle in my garage , either . SEEYA
Hi guys! I have the 23 Polaris Sportsman Ultimate Trail with the 90 hp 1000cc motor. It's a beast! I use it to plow my driveway, hunt and ride trails. It does it all very well. Most of the time it's in the work mode option. I wanted an 850 but it was towards the end of COVID and it was slim pickings and they sold it to me for the price of the 850. It definitely has more power than weight to hold it down.
Great video from Levi, saw it and commented on his site. As fellow Eagle Scout too appreciate his overnighter! Last time I did that though in austere conditions was in my USMC days, long ago! Well done to Levi!
I enjoyed Levi 's video . Like I told Levi when he said he was an Eagle scout, he is an Eagle Scout that is for life ,it shows dedication, and work ethic among other things..

Great perspective.. and thank you for watching
Well said Tom 😊
Take the time you need. It’s not selfish. You are far from selfish.
Isn't it great to have so many free advisors to help take care of your situations?
Levi's video was good. Love seeing kids interesred in the outdoors
I have heard the heated garages are worse for vehicles because the underside is always wet and that is when the salt does the most damage.
Sounds like a tuff night Mike…I understand your comment on “me time” and not having to constantly divide your attention between Hunter and whatever you might be involved with. Unfortunately my wife has Dementia, her sleep schedule is upside down that affects so much. You, Melissa and Hunters siblings are an inspiration in dealing with keeping Hunter safe and Loved.
You're an unsung hero caring for your spouse.
@@robertrogish1038…. That’s so true. My dad had dementia and my adopted brother wife has it now too.

Rule of thumb for buildings…figure out how big a one you need, then quadruple it.😂

Mike, you and Melissa are one heck of parents! That said, my heart is with you both.
Mike, check out Country View Acres wood rack. Beautiful job Evan did on that. With your saw mill you could easily produce one for the HQ.
Loved the quad tour of the property, it has been a long time since you have done that and I never recall you doing a property tour with snow. Thanks Mike.
Glad you enjoyed it
I watched Levi’s video. Very good and involved his son. 👍👍👍
I'm with you Mike, I don't like eating on a sidewalk or a deck. The flies, the wind makes your food cold. The sun setting in your eyes.
Or eating in a vehicle, if we’re eating, we’re sitting at a table.
I too watch Ryan Hall, good man, no drama, just the facts.
Levi's video was cool. His son will remember that forever.
Mike I agree. I have 2 attached garages and none of the vehicles are inside. Gave my wife a remote start for her car. I hate having all the winter junk on the garage floors.

Yes We Been Stuck in This Cold Spell Also!!
Keep Smiling On!!

Gosh darn it I’ll admit this is my favorite UA-cam channel

I just replaced my brake,transmission cooler lines along with a frame.
Levi had a great video. It is very worth watching. Hi everyone.
Make a carport I was against it at my house but I built one I love it Godbless

Mike you better man than me. The clearing would have bunch of donuts in it with the four wheeler or side by side. lol
Yes you were correct. January 13 was the first full moon of the year

Hiya Jack! Cold here in NCNC too (25F/-4C). Snow gone here except in the north-facing shaded areas.

To each his own.

Good Morning BadCat.... gray out there today, cold on the way.... stay warm and enjoy....
Morning friend. Just another meow of a day? Be safe. Hope it's a great one. 🙏

My question about using a leaf blower to blow the snow off of the cars. Have you tried to use the large blower for the tractor on the driveway?
Have a great day Mike. Enjoy your videos. 👍👍
Thanks you too
Mike I am surprised that you have not put hydrolic angle cylinders on black blade on your tractor. With my injury to my foot i could just see falling when getting on and off the tractor all the time. So I bought a rear blade with power angle 2 years ago and had 2 rear remote circuits installed. It is a game changer. You can install the angle kit yourself with no problem.
Yes the moon was full. I agree I affects everyone in one way or another. I bought my house 8 years ago and the salt/road treatment really wrecks concrete. I don't go out sometimes for days not to mention scraping windows so parking in the garage is for me.
When I replaced my garage floor I put a floor drain in, best way to deal with snow melt.
We haven't had "housing" for our vehicles for decades. We do have snow brushes and windshield covers ;)
Your all doing a great job parenting when hunter is sleeping you can relax and also need an early night to recharge your battery
I personally would prefer a carport on gravel vs a garage for vehicles.
You are correct on the full moon Mike. I heard it called " a wolf moon". Agree with you 100% on the camping thing. I would do "glamping" with a motor home, but I like my ac in the summer and heat in winter. Like you, i work outside sunrise to sunset so I am not into sleeping outside. Thanks Mike
I live up here by Erie, PA, about 30 miles south , I keep my car in the garage and it has 170,00 miles on it and still runs great, and I use it every summer to haul a trailer loaded with firewood, I keep my snow thrower in the garage, have had it for 24 years and it still works great, lawn tractor has it's own spot in the garage, it cuts grass, rakes leaves and plows snow, pretty much works all year, had it for over 13 years and still does the jobs I need it to do. Nice to be able to buy new equipment every couple years. LOL
You're right about snow melt in the garage. Wise to have a floor drain in place for that. You could install a awning off the front of the garage? That's
what a lot of people do to protect the vehicles from the elements.
Last night (13th) was the full moon. I saw it briefly through the clouds last night when I took the dogs out.
Hi Mike, I think it's funny that so many people have room in their garages to park cars.... I guess they don't get outside much, my garage has 2 motorcycles, a quad, mowers, a snowblower and too many tools.... the cars and trucks sleep outside
Hello! 😊 When I lived in Ohio I kept my first car in a warm garage. It rusted so bad from the salt that it cracked in half from frame damage. Heat is a catalyst for most chemical reactions.
Good morning David , happy Mewsday 😸
Morning David, sent a note to Mike, looks like it went into never never land? Nicer temperatures, still not a lot of sun... enjoy... oh, see it just showed up?
Hey there
Hi guys!
@@peteatthefarm4459Hi Pete, Sometimes something goes wrong with the comments. I know that if I post one when an AD is playing, it hardly ever goes thru. Anyway, have a great Ontario day! 👍
Put a 1-1/2 black ABS pipe on the blade of plow to protect concrete and gravel.
Good Morning from Delaware, Ohio...chilly start to the day!
Morning!
When you was talking about the laundry and Hunter. I was thinking how you said your clothes are always clean the next day. It made me smile. You're a good family. Very smart folks. As most say on here. Do however and whatever you want. Is that Ryan Hall from Pikeville Kentucky?
Full moon 🌕. My wife is a nurse and as long as I can remember she has hated to work a night or nights on or around a full moon. She says it does affect the patients.
Thanks for the 4-wheeler trip. Felt like I was driving. Maybe suitcase weights in back would be an asset easy, quick on and off.
Have an awesome day Mike, keep the family warm and be safe.
Your place,your choice. A thought of a lean-to or carport with a gravel floor. Thanks for the videos.
Good morning Mike. I watched Levi's video earlier this morning. I enjoyed it very much. I'm getting too old to do that sort of thing anymore. So it did bring back a few memories from days gone by. Sounds like you were pretty busy. Well, God bless and have a wonderful day. 👍👍🙂
Hello Mike and Melissa! Have a fantastic week!
Last night was a full moon! Our cat did zoomies in the bedroom all night long, which is very unusual behavior! Full Wolf Moon!

Good morning y'all !!! Happy Tuesday from a cold British Columbia interior, enjoy the day !
Great video with your son camping without a tent…. I’ve done that before myself. I was in the scouts and it was not quite that cold, but it’s definitely a challenge . As far as everybody going crazy about you blowing snow off the cars, that’s over the edge. That’s why we now have ceramic coatings… and PPF for vehicles these days. Hope Hunter gets some rest, so you and Melissa can recharge. Best wishes from cold W/ North Carolina.
Thank you
That would be an absolute blast running those trails on a quad during the winter, I could spend all day out there.
“The heat on it doesn’t work too good”. 😂
It doesn’t on the four wheeler either!
@@tennesseesawmillguy1590 dress for it & it’ll be alright 👍🏻 😂😂
But the air conditioner works great ! 😂
@ 🤣😂🤣 yeah just open the windows
Yes sir - that is cold for sure.. The 4 wheeler ride was a winter wonder land trip. Well if it stays cold - real cold no MUD....that's a blessing. About the snow on the vehicles, when [pretty rare] it snows here your not going to blow it off. The snow here in SE Texas when it happens, it freezes more like sleet and ice. Besides, the Ceramic Coating is probably great defense for Auto protection. And what most people do not get, took me a minute, Mike, you know what your doing. Everything, almost, is like a spread sheet of numbers, math. Even when i see something i do not understand why you do it, i wait, because i KLNOW the life lesson is coming.. :) Thanks Mike it is a great ride on your channel, as well as all the Morgan's channels. ❤💯🙏
Yes Mike; it was a Full Moon on Monday Jan. 13.
I saw that you keep your cars and trucks outside and I told my wife I bet there is no room. I know because I have not parked in my garage for years. I have a small cnc router on one side and other stuff on the other. Have to move things so I can work on my Polaris 500.
Watched the camping video and loved it. Wish I had the ambition to do that but I am 69 and like my bed more 😂
Cold just north of Detroit today too.
Morning from ct. been dealing with road salt and my trucks 45,000 miles on my first f350 plowing and it was new when I got it. would get rusted so bad. The salt is terrible to concrete it ruined a granit and cement step of mine just from the little bit of salt to melt the ice on it. Some people don’t realize that it does that. You can see the damage salt does going over the Newport bridge. It’s concrete. 30 some of years ago I learned the snow rake is essential around my place. No more ice dams , l only go up a foot or 2 on most of my roofs. My horse barn doesn’t seem to need it, barn location most likely and it has gutters. Bob
Hi Mike. I agree. As a retired small family farmer of 23yrs. I will get very tired at the last 9yrs. I couldn't sleep in 14 yrs. I completely understand tiredness. 😴😴😴😴 Yes. The wolf moon. Some winter the ice & snow is a constant battle. Then sleeping outside Levi & Christian. Crazy! 🙃🙃🙃🙃🤔🤔🤔🤔 I ❤camping. Just not in winter seasons. I agree about winter / vehicles/ garage. That salt is so nasty. Stains everything. Well. Thanks Mike. Say Hi to Melissa, Melissa's dad, Eva, Hunter, Levi, Kate, Tyler, & Hannah. Have a good Wednesday night the 15th. 🥰😊😉🥶👍❤️💜⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌬🌫
I really like your Snow Additude which you can call Snowatude, I live in Southern AZ, when it snows here you just wait an hour or so and it melts, I own zero snow shovel or snow removal equip of anykind 😀 Tom
Great sled riding hill.
The back end of the ATV trying to pass you is one of the negatives about Polaris's CVT, no engine braking....just freewheels down the hills. That was one thing I liked about my Yamaha Grizzly 450 and Yamaha Rhino 700, the one way clutch in the CVT allowed for engine braking...and going down hills in snow, mud, etc. in 4WD you had 4 wheel engine braking.
Hmm, you probably need to contact your Vermeer dealer and get the heater fixed on that thing HAHA!!!
You don't park your cars in your garage, and neither do several hundred thousand other people LOL. I don't even have a garage and glad I don't, otherwise it would be full of stuff too and couldn't get a vehicle in it anyhow HAHA!!. I just have a carport that's half cluttered with stuff I still need to sort through and put away once I get the storage shed cleaned out and organized....having to go through 30+ years of my grandparents stuff since they have both passed away; grandpa about a year ago now....is quite the tedious process, there's so much stuff to go through, sort out, give to family, etc. Slowly making process, its just hard when you go through that stuff and brings back memory after memory.
Being able to put my vehicles up on the carport at least keeps the windows from being frosted over in the mornings at least. Having them in a garage I mean would be really nice, but for my super duty, like you it wouldn't fit in the garage anyhow as the garages back in the 70's when my house was built weren't very big to begin with full size trucks don't fit in them, and most weren't deep enough to get a full size truck into and be able to close the door anyhow.
Its a “wolf” moon. Sunny and 65. 😎
I think I've signed up for the newsletter, maybe twice, but I don't think I've ever seen one yet.
Your rip around the property today reminded me of the first video I ever watched of yours Mike. You certainly have come a long way 👍
Does it seem like a longer & colder winter than usual? If you build another building/garage its just more room for more junk!
Looks like a beautiful ride on the four wheeler. I miss my four wheeler I had one years ago. I sold it because I rarely rode it. There was a short span if I was even caught on county road with it I would get pulled over so it just wasn’t worth it to me going from one property to another having to loading up all the time but now it’s crazy people just ride them all over the place, but then you would get a ticket in five seconds flat for being on the road. I can understand where if you have responsibilities with your family how you can want some alone time at night Nothing crazy about that. As far as the camping we ever travel trailer and we use it multiple times a year here in Kentucky at LBL. I’m with u though tent camping is definitely less desirable. Maybe when you’re young, but when you get older, not so much especially for me my wife doesn’t like it either. We’re waiting on this super cold spell to come in here in Western Kentucky or it supposed to get close to zero. God Bless
This ride with you this morning reminded me of my sno-mobiling days. Thanks for the memories 😀
Mike I’ve owned about 6 houses in my life and never parked a car in my garage. I take that back I did park my Corvette in the garage.
Funny you talked about the full moon. My wife that has brain health issues and usually sleeps like a log was up acting odd last night about midnight too.! Normal today. Yes, you have to get your quiet time or you get wore out from their frequent "emergencies". I feel ya!
Good morning Mr Mike. Loved the ride thru the snow. Greetings from the Old Jarhead in WNC
Checked out Ryan. Like him!!! Thanks for that! Hunter??? You and M are pure human parents!!! Thank you for that, Wonderful to see!!! A+ you two!!! 👍🏻👍🏻😎😎😎
Mike, full moon. I worked for the telephone company for 43 years, and yes, the full moon does something to some people. We could always tell when it was a full moon because we would get the most ridiculous calls from people, and they would really be bent out of shape over the littlest things. We could count on it with some of the people that we would get a call or two from them every full moon. The full moon does have some control over some people. J.R.
I love being outside all day too. But I don’t like eating outside in the summer. Hot bugs sweat.
That looked like slippery ride , Mike . It looked like fun . You had the deer running . . I know what you mean . I can't put a vehicle in my garage , either . SEEYA
I watched Levi’s video! I used to do those things when I was his age, kids were so funny!
Levi's video was awesome!
I was impressed and learned some things.
Hi guys! I have the 23 Polaris Sportsman Ultimate Trail with the 90 hp 1000cc motor. It's a beast! I use it to plow my driveway, hunt and ride trails. It does it all very well. Most of the time it's in the work mode option. I wanted an 850 but it was towards the end of COVID and it was slim pickings and they sold it to me for the price of the 850.
It definitely has more power than weight to hold it down.
Mike,another excellent video from the HQ at the homestead 😮😊❤
Great video from Levi, saw it and commented on his site. As fellow Eagle Scout too appreciate his overnighter! Last time I did that though in austere conditions was in my USMC days, long ago! Well done to Levi!
I enjoyed Levi 's video . Like I told Levi when he said he was an Eagle scout, he is an Eagle Scout that is for life ,it shows dedication, and work ethic among other things..
You could build a carport outside of your basement. 2-3 vehicles could park under it and they are still outside .
