Good to see those cedars, both a blessing and a curse go to good use. They crowd out grass and drink up water but they provide firewood, fences and shelter.
Heya, I'm still tryna catch up with the older uploads. Stunning vista & fabulous build. It's gone 1am Monday morning here in South Africa & I'm watching your channel 😂. Adios for now amigo. I need my beauty sleep 🌍🇿🇦💌🙏👍
So thankful your realizing the path of water and runoff for this area. Was worried when you first walked and showed the land. Now I'm curious to see and learn your prevention methods of how they would've persevered. Hard to find land in Okla without somewhat of this issue. Thank-you for all your doing. May the Lord guide & direct each thought along your path. Lord willing, you will be able to continue showing us skills we may need.😅
Flooding Issues. Thru the years, it seems with the Seasons Changing & so many Land Developments trying to change the water flow paths and control them that I dont feel the flood zone maps can fully keep updated as needed. This is not fully accurate either, but as a tool, you can look your land up on Zillow and use their Map to see some of the water flow paths. Zoom out and get a visual of the Streams. Then expect it to overflow the banks every so now and then with hard rains and runoffs adding to the flow. Maybe I'm just a little too worrisome. I lived in a Flood Zone for several years and was bought out right before the 100yr flood plain happened in 2019. Thank the Lord 😅. Don't feel safe in thinking it will be a whole 100 more yrs to be affected. So now, of course, that has caused me to be aware and notice when I see a potential risk. Seeing those little washed out banks along where you built just makes me think that hard rains has came billowing thru there.
@@MissyReneBouquets Oh yes you're absolutely right about that and I'm glad you got out of there before that flood! Looking at satellite maps of the area I think my cabin is in as good of a spot as I have available but I definitely expect some flooding to happen. Hopefully when that happens it makes for a good video!
In a lot of ways for me, your efforts to capture as much historically accurate and authenticity in all the aspects of scouting location, sourcing as many natural materials as the situations allow, building, cooking, tool selection, maintenance and repair, and journaling it all in writing and video ; likens it to a cowboys old west version of Dick Proenneke - Alone in the Wilderness. Great Job!
I really appreciate that thank you. And I love those Dick Proenneke videos too, they were a big inspiration. I love seeing all his old tools and random stuff in his cabin, I can't wait to finish my cabin because I have a lot of antiques to fill it up with. As I learn more I'll try and make the video's even more historically accurate. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@WesternPioneer My G-Grandfather built the house he and my G-Grandmother raised 11 children in. I believe it took him 4-5 years (1902-1907), and it still stands today. Our ancestors were a hardy bunch. Something lost for many.
@manaboutoz2390 I don't know if you'll see this but I really appreciate the super chat, thank you so much. And I never heard of people flattening out cans for roofing materials but it makes sense! People come up with the most resourceful and ingenious things.
Thank you! At the moment I'm just using a modern day cooler but I've read that the pioneers would store meat in the barrels that held their water. It kept the meat fresher for longer but at the risk of contaminating their drinking water.
It's a 45 with no markings on it. The man I bought it from said that his dad was a western tv actor in 40's and 50's and when he made enough money doing small parts he moved to Oklahoma and bought land here. This gun was given to him by a production company as a retirement gift. It's really beat up so it was probably used in dozens if not hundreds of western tv shows, sadly the son couldn't remember which ones.
Yes I've been meaning to figure out how to do that. I usually try to say something about what I'm doing in the video descriptions but the captions would be better.
I'm wondering what type of floor you are planning to have in your cabin; tamped earth, clay tile, stone, or wood planking? I don't know what the settlers had, but I am guessing tamped earth until they could afford to make improvements? I don't know if I would want to put valuable antiques on an earthen floor unless there a method to seal it to prevent moisture from damaging the furniture? I'm not trying to discourage you. I'm just raising some practical questions of concern, which might be helpful for the preservation of your antiques. God speed.
Felicidades por el video , soy de un pueblo de España ,solo conozco la cultura del lejano oeste por las peliculas de vaqueros pero me llama la atencion que en las peliculas siempre tienen un recipiente con cafe en el fuego y siempre estan tomando cafe .......usted no toma cafe ?????. un saludo ...¡¡¡¡

Thank you so very much! I'm slowly figuring everything out. Can you elaborate on the issue with land in Oklahoma? I didn't quite understand.

I'm really enjoying your videos, looking forward to watching the next one. Cheers from Australia
What a peacefull and meaningfull life

I was just thinking about this channel yesterday, glad there was a new episode waiting for me today! Keep it up!
I'm looking forward to your next video.
Truly nice video friend. This video definitely has the flavor of the wild west
looking great! always appreciate seeing you give thanks before your meals. Thanks for the content!
Lots of hard work!!! I'm excited to see your progress in your next video! I enjoyed it, very relaxibg!! God bless!
Увлекает и захватывает сама работа в историческом формате!
Я увлечён! Молодец! 😊
большое спасибо
The more I watch your endeavor...the more inspired I am to follow your example, down here in Texas. Coming together real nice.👍
It's a lot more work than I originally imagined but it's also been a lot more rewarding.

@@MikeArnold-i5c That's impressive! I definitely think our ancestors would be disappointed in how soft everyone is today.
@@WesternPioneer Yes sir, I would agree. I do believe that many will discover what real disappointment is. Likely very soon.
This is great...

Great progress!! I loved getting to see how that axe got repaired. Also, that was a great place to eat! I would’ve chosen the same spot haha
that final 30 seconds says it all
you're a lucky man, keep pluggin' along
I really am. I'm pushing to get a new video out this weekend, working on the front wall.

Thank you!
Another great vid! Do you refrigerate the meat ?
Thank you! At the moment I'm just using a modern day cooler but I've read that the pioneers would store meat in the barrels that held their water. It kept the meat fresher for longer but at the risk of contaminating their drinking water.
@@WesternPioneer also heard they would keep there bacon and salt pork in a barrel of grain during wagon trains especially the Oregon and Mormon ones…
@@shawnhenry6670 Oh that's interesting, thank you for telling me that!
What gun you packing there pardner?

Since you dont talk, can you make captions of what your doing and such please. other than that I like the content.
Yes I've been meaning to figure out how to do that. I usually try to say something about what I'm doing in the video descriptions but the captions would be better.
Not to break immersion with this question, but is this project being done on your own property or with permission from another party?
Yes it's on my own property.
Now thats how you should live. ps put your pant legs in your boots
This is gonna be great, this guy is very authentic and entertaining

I appreciate you showing your failures (fire going out, water coming in, and axes breaking) Life was very hard and frustrating back then.
A well is a great addition! Good episode! I could almost smell the bacon and eggs.
