DIGGING our way IN! (Alaskan, OFF-GRID Cabin)

- Good morning dear friends! By the time you read this Tanya and I will be on our way up to the cabin to spend a couple of days. This week we will be cleaning out the messy old generator building and starting to transform it into an inviting woodshop. We are excited about this space and can't wait to get to work. The roof is our first and biggest concern. It is literally collapsing under the heavy snow load. We will start by shoring it up and then begin to make permanent repairs. We are so glad you are coming along for this adventure.
The daily highs are up above freezing almost every day now and the snow should start receding soon. Spring is on it's way to the mountains and we are so looking forward to it. We can't wait to show you this beautiful country!
We love you all so much. Thank you for your friendship.
Hello from Ohio, I watch all your videos I don’t comment very often I’m glad to see your wife is join the club. I’m a 63-year-old carpenter and I love to watch you build your cabins. This video reminds me of the movie the shining all that snow you can get lost in a maze of snow lol! Thanks Brian
Thank you so much for checking in my friend. I love to receive comments from tradesman. Don't be shy to share your knowledge with me. An old dog can still learn a thing or two you know.
Looking at that ridge beam sticking out it strikes me that it would be a great place to hang the Bed and Breakfast sign (with a bit of reinforcement). It is great to have your wife there with you and the audio going along with her arrival. She has the most beautiful smile and seems overflowing with energy! I enjoy watching you do the things I have done in past years (without all the equipment) as I am doing less and less in my seventies. Seems I spend as much time in my chair as I do in the shop! Keep up the work and the humor. It is good to see you laugh together with Stella grinning!
I have watched so many of your videos that were without words... Your wife is the quality you needed to take the channel to the next level.
Mark, thank you so much for this encouragement, it means so much to us. Take care friend. 🥰
Love the humor on this one.
Thanks friend! ❤️
Привет,друзья!Какие вы красивые!радуюсь встрече с вами!все вы умеете: и отдыхать,и работать!!!!!!!
It's nice to see couples working so well together, its makes for a better video to watch., keep up the good work you guys.
Greetings Tanya and Gale. This is Dina from California. I want you to understand how much I look forward to each and every video. I am 58 years young and work on my own projects. Nothing close to your complex projects. I relate to Tanya working. I too have used two hands to hammer nails. We have to work smarter, not harder.
I really appreciate your creativity, skill and hard work. I’ve learned a great deal watching y’all. Please keep safe and warm. Till next video
Ps: Paid endorsements are of no concern to me. I will still watch your vlog. ❤️
Greetings Dina! We send our love and thanks to you down in California. 58 years is young and we wish you many happy and peace-filled years. Keep after those projects. And feel free to tell us about them. We would love that. Peace
Stella needs an agent. She's a STAR!!! 😊🤗😍😎❤❤⭐⭐⭐
Haha, Yes, we are her biggest fans ❤️
Wow, another major project! I give you both a lot of credit for taking on major projects.
Good evening Ron. We have our hands full for sure here. This will be a multi-year project though and we are not in a hurry. We want it to be fun for everyone
Among the three of you, it's really Stella who's having the best part of life 😉
You are a very close and nice couple. I love all your videos.
Alaska is very cold but fascinating place: snow, silence and tranquility.
Your channel brings tears of happy joy. In a world of turmoil this is so refreshing. Love you both not forgetting Stella 😀
I've only been watching since the beginning of you last log cabin build. I really enjoy your channel and like seeing your wife now. She adds some spice. 😊
It's all coming together. Sucks you didn't get the right staple hammer with you. It's always a blessing to visit family. Be safe & stay healthy. 🙏
Haha, yes. Well I have the right one now and that insulation doesn’t stand a chance 😊
My word, that is an incredible amount of snow, beautiful but I’d think real inconvenient 😊👍
Laura, it does get to be a bit of a pain but you are right it is beautiful. By this time of the year we could do with a little less of the beauty of snow and a little more with the beauty of bare earth and anything green 😂.
Watching your weekly Friday videos is a new not-so-guilty pleasure ! The "workplace etiquette" banter is so endearing and funny and you two are a delight...well matched ! Thank you !
Good evening Kaye. Thank you for your kind words. We love to tease each other. It has gone on since we were dating 37 years ago now. I am still crazy about this little gal and am so blessed to be able to work alongside her on this project. Peace to you from both of us
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Live long and prosper , in good health and much happiness !!!
Another beautiful morning watching the Sun come up and watching another beautiful video from Alaska, it never gets old. I love what you are willing to do to keep the camp grounds alive, it takes time but with the intelligence and knowledge that you have is amazing. Your craftsmanship is amazing also. you are great!!
Thank you my friend. We appreciate the kind and encouraging words. It is our dream to restore this old campground and cabin site. We love the area, the work and this community. It all works and that is the important thing. Thanks again. Peace
Yooh Stella run baby run. LOL She is everywhere, and helping where she can. Again a lot of work has been done. See you in the next video. Greetings Harry
Harry, she zips around so fast and it makes us laugh. She sleeps hard and plays hard and she is everywhere but never seems to leave our side! Thanks you for watching and taking time to comment. Hugs from the 3 of us. 😊
STELLA!!! Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Have a great weekend!! God bless you and may our Blessed Mother keep you and yours!!!
Thank you so much! This is a very special week around the world. Peace to you as you celebrate.
I've been watching these videos for the past year. Look forward to every Friday. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦 enjoy and stay safe.
Walter, thank you for making us a part of your weekly viewing and for hanging in there with us so faithfully, we treasure your friendship. Take care and have a wonderful weekend. 😊
As a longtime Dallas and north Texan resident, welcome to Texas !
You're always welcome !
Hope you had a great visit and trip !!!!
Thank you Kip! We enjoyed your wonderful state & city. We had a wonderful time touristing around, I think the botanical garden was my favorite. We’re glad you’re here and appreciate the kind comment. Peace friend.
Love the idea of the pizza on a BBQ in the snow , and the full moon at 2am looked awesome ,really enjoying watching the progress .
Good morning guys! It was a spectacular night. I always get outside with my camera on these nights. Just way to pretty to miss.

@@ThisIsMyAlaska it was beautiful .
Good lord that’s a gorgeous thumbnail!
😁💛
It was around 2 a.m. I was outside for quite awhile just drinking it all in. Absolutely spectacular
@@ThisIsMyAlaska
One of the top reasons why I want to visit Alaska someday. That beautiful night sky without all the light pollution.
I’m fascinated with the beauty of this planet, the stars in all things astronomy🪐 🚀🔭
Wow! I can't believe that I have only just realized the incredibly hard yakka (work) involved with this reno. And, I think it's because you make it look so easy, mixed with banter, ☕️& Stella being a Kardashian (beautiful & good for nothing 😁) I ❤Stella!!! Thanks for another great video. You're amazing 👏
The installation you two installed should make a huge difference. My wife and I will celebrate are 56th anniversary next Thursday.
Tony, 56 years is AMAZING! If I could love your comment more times, I totally would! Happy anniversary to you both! ❤️🎉❤️🎉 You are right about the insulation making a difference, we noticed a big difference last night. Of course it’s also warming up outside so that helps 😊…all things considered the improvement is 👍🏼. Thank you for watching, friend. Have a blessed weekend.
*This Is My Alaska* Thank-you so much for taking the time to bring us along with you. God Bless.
Thank you for coming along and for taking time to write such a sweet comment. Peace and blessing to you friend.
Another great show!! It's also the only one I like even before I listened to it!! I love you and keep up the great work!!! Peace✌
Aww! Thank you so so much. We appreciate that you not only watch but you take time to write an encouraging comment. Peace and blessing to you and yours.
bonjour a vous et votre femme, quel courage avec la neige, quand je regarde vos vidéos quel complicité vraiment votre femme et merveilleuse faire du marteau n'ai pas facile ,je dit bravo a votre femme, j'ai passé un bon moment a vous regarder merci pour vos vidéos continués comme ca vous êtes trés courageux bonne journée Annie
Thank you Annie. You are a long-time subscriber! We appreciate you. Tanya works very hard and I am so glad to be able to build this project with her. It is truly a blessing. Peace to you our friend.
You two are quickly becoming one of my favorite u tube channels. Love following your builds.
Good morning Wayne! We appreciate your kind words. So glad you are part of our lives. Peace
You both were much funny in this footage! She did much trying! such a happy couple!
Dara, thank you for acknowledging my efforts and thank you for the kind comment. We appreciate you! 😊 ~T
Thank you for sharing your videos, always brighten up the day. We are watching every single episode, so much positivity!
My wife and I have not long ago celebrated our 35th (Coral) anniversary, during the first 12 of them I was in the British Army, we have 2 son's 35, and 34, a wonderful daughter in law, and 3 amazing grandchildren twin grandsons of 8 and a beautiful granddaughter of 3,
Neil, 35 years is something to celebrate for sure!🎉 Your family sounds like wonderful legacy and a testament to your many years together. Thank you so much for being here with us, for watching and taking a moment to comment and share a bit of your story. Have a lovely weekend.
Another great video! That’s a great looking work shop, I will be patiently waiting for that series. I would like to thank you for sharing your adventure at the zoo. Until next time, take care. Peace
Norman, thank you so much! Gale mentally has already planned a great many projects for that worthy space 😂. We appreciate the kind comment, friend. It’s good to have you here with us. Peace & blessing to you.
I enjoyed your last cabin build. This one is proving interesting also. The ability to make coffee does offset most construction challenges!!!!
Excellent progress! As a former Texan, it was good to see your film of your visit. SO much appreciate your family (and Princess Stella) sharing your wonderful adventures with us all. Thank YOU!
That CASE 580 backhoe loader is a game changer without that up there not sure how you can deal with all of that snow you get!! thanks for sharing your vids - have a great weekend!!
You are so right! Without our tractor we would not be here doing what we’re doing. This was a bigger snow year than usual but this area does always tend to get quite a lot. Thank you for watching friend. Have a great weekend.
Aleksandar from Belgrade, Serbia, Europe.. Love everything about your living off grid thing.. Take care, be well!!!
Aleksander, greetings to you half a world away! Thank you for being here and for the kind comment. Peace and blessing to you from Alaska.
Hello again. My favorite couple is still working very hard buried into snow. It's fantastic to see how you work with that good humor and affection. A big hug from Spain and a couple for Alaska. What a trip from Alaska to Texas!! Wonderful.
Love this channel! The three of you have great energy. Yours is my " Feel Good. Be Inspired." Channel 💪😊🙏
Aww thank you friend! It’s it pretty awesome for us to be someone’s “feel good channel.” We are honored! We’re glad to have you here and wish you much peace, love and inspiration.
You weren’t kidding about digging in.😁 Your Alaska is a beautiful one. Thanks
Loved your video you dug your way to the shop and Hopped on a plane to Dallas to see your Son awesome I Got Family In Spring Texas Always A Pleasure Watching Your Videos And Your Wife Helping On The Build So Much Bonding Have A Blessed Weekend Much Love From Portland Indiana
Good morning Daniel. That shop is going to be a bit of work. We are going to tackle it today and try to brace up that collapsing old roof. The “trusses” are home-built and way under built. We will get them into shape though
Enjoy the video very much. I bet the night you had in the cabin after installing the installation what is a much warmer. Enjoy your time in Texas.👍
Thank you.
Richard, the insulation install was a HUGE improvement. With that and the ever warming weather it about cooked us out. Thank you for the kind wishes, we had a lovely time in Texas. Peace & blessing to you. 😊
Hello Ma'am & Sir 🙋🏻♂️
Your work and alliance is one of the most pleasant, inspiring and entertaining things around.
I usually like watching your videos in the afternoon or the hours before Sun rise 🌅 .
Have a bit of a headache now, and I don't want to dilute this pleasant experience, so will pull out for now, but I will be back (like many other fans).
I love the team work and the face you guys put when you opened the wood shop it was like Christmas for you guys
Ha! Thank you friend. ❤️
I am a long time viewer and Isure am loving your new content. Your wife is a most welcome addition to your channel. You guys are an awesome team! I am always so happy to see your postings and am always hungry for more! Thank you, from Ontario, Canada.
What a brilliant team, I hope the coffee tasted as good as it looks. You are a wonderful couple you are truly blessed.
Holy cow ! Thanks so much Gale ! And it’s like Genesee beer with an o on the end basically but definitely close enough. And yea I’ve been on board since pretty close to beginning I think. My wife Kim and I came to our camp for the night and I said holy crap he’s talking about me ! I explained and she knew who I was talking about because show her clips while I watch lol. Anyway I saw that shop and thought I can’t wait to see the stuff you could do in there once it’s been cleaned up and made safe again ! So glad you got to visit with one of your sons and I’m sure Tonya was happy with some warmth. Lol. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures with us ! Take care G&T ! ✌️
Good evening Tony. You are so welcome for the shoutout. We appreciate your friendship. We spent most of the day today working on that old shop. It is really going to be nice to have a place to get inside and work on our many projects. We are going to have to address that old roof though. This winter pretty much did it in. Give our love to Kim. Talk with you soon. Good night from Alaska
Hi there from Illinois! So much snow! Hey, I remember the igloo episodes, maybe there could be the beginning of a snow sky scraper up there! Nice workshop!!!! I foresee lots of fun projects coming to life in there! Tanya, love you new hairdo! Now you need a new tool belt to go along with that! Then maybe you won't hear the pitter patter of nails raining down. 😉 . Stella.....how can you sleep with all of that banging???? What did you say Stella? " it's rough rough!" Yeah, I bet. I admire your work, it's so clear that everything that you do is done exceptionally well and thorough. I'm learning so much! Thanks for sharing your talents! Hope that you had a fun and WARM toe tappn' visit in Dallas!
Donna, you perfectly described our time in Dallas! Thank you for the lovely compliment ! The struggle with short hair is that already I feel like I need a trim 😂. I agree that a nail belt/ belts would be JUST the thing and said as much to Gale! I’m like, “aren’t you a carpenter? And don’t they typically use nail belts?!” He is NOT typical. 😂 Stella can sleep through about anything. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- she is a lady of leisure! Her main job is to look pretty and that’s what she does 90% of the time, the other 10% she is keeping us thoroughly entertained 😊. It is good to chat with you friend. Thanks so much for being here and for taking time to connect. We appreciate you. ~Tanya
That was definitely a curveball. I bet that ceiling insulation made a big difference in the cabin. Gotta love Stella climbing the snow pile by the shop and that will be a great space to work when you remove that center wall. Love watching you and Tanya kidding around and working together! Did you ever get your coffee? 🤣 Love your content and can’t wait to see your progress! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼’s and a bone 🦴 for Stella
I was watching you put the bats up and thinking "I wonder if we'll ever see a video with some of your family?" Then, whaddya know! Thanks for another fun video. 🙂❤
Stella does a grand job telling you where to plow!
Haha yes! She is our little shadow, always close by making sure all is well and offering her sweet support. Thank you for watching, friend and have a great weekend.
Hello, Tannya and Gale. I am glad that you have come from Texas and that you are going to work with new energy. Is this new house your own. I see that you have big plans and you need a carpentry shop. We already have a beautiful spring that will come to you soon, but there is still a lot of snow. When the snow melts you will be able to see the beauty of the Tundra. I greet you and your lovely wife who bravely helps you. God be with you
You are both so adorable!
🥰 Thank you!! 😍
Oh my that’s a lot of snow . GODBLESS you all 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
You two are great together, my bride and I are going to visit your great state this summer. I have always been afraid to take a look see because I am sure I would never want to return to the lower 48. Gale, I wish I had your your skill set at an earlier age! Your work is impeccable
Good morning Marvin. That sounds so exciting. Are you driving up? If you have the opportunity you are invited to stop by our place and share a cup of coffee. Keep up posted. Peace
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Thank you for your gracious offer. My wife and I will be flying into anchorage and then on the fairbanks (August 3rd) staying in danila for two days then back to Whittier to board a curse headed back to BC 11 days total. Not sure where you are located but a cup of coffee with such great folks would be great if it works out. The good folks at K-Love/Air1 encourage "There are good people in the world if you cannot find one, be one" You are one of those. God Bless
Marvin, I love that! “If you can’t find one, be one!” Perfect! This property is about 3 hours out of Fairbanks but our “in town” house is in North Pole just outside of Fairbanks and so depending on what your Fairbanks day looks like….
You will see a great variety of Alaska’s landscapes on your trip! I hope you two have a wonderful time!!! ❤️
I wish you good times my dear
i have been a long time watcher. l look forward to Friday to watch the next video, thanks for sharing your life and projects that ya'll do
Thank you Ron! We so appreciate your faithful friendship. Have a blessed and peaceful weekend. 🥰
Loved the band!!
They were fantastic! 😊
My bride and I celebrate our 37th year too! 1985 seems a long time ago! I really loved the ending in Dallas. So kind of you two to mention people’s comments
Hello JohnyB. That is awesome news! Yes, 1985 was half a lifetime ago. We wouldn't change a thing though. It has been a fantastic journey. Thanks for being part of our channel. I am looking forward to hearing more from you.
Watching the struggle to get the ceiling in the "cabin" shored up and the "lower" insulation in place without the aid of the staple gun reminded me of the struggles I face when helping Fred work his magic on all our cars and mechanical items while I stand and grapple with holding a hand tool successfully!! Gale is the natural builder, renovator, go-getter of all things new and rebuilt while Tanya is the natural expert in all things creative and good to eat and drink and comfortable. Just to let you know, Tanya, Fred and I struggle with our natural expertises vs. our natural inabilities, just as you and Gale do. I tell Fred often, "No body wants to feel like they're wrong or inept!" When it all comes down to it, we are together because of our difference, not in spite of them. And we're only together for 17 years, having come together late in life - I was 56 and Fred was 50 when we met and decided to spend our lives together. And, we're going to stay together and spend our lives getting to know each other instead of butting heads about our differences. Tough but rewarding time spent!
Boy, talk about throwing us a curve!! The first shot of the snake and the "floating "lizard" was quite the shock! We were surprised to see those critters until we remembered y'all had gone to Texas! The warmth must have been a welcome change from the cold in Alaska.
We like our Black Snakes here in Florida and our millions of chameleons who keep our home free from rats, mice, spiders, roaches and other vermin. Every place has its vermin and we all learn to live with them. Right now, we have a nest of baby raccoons up at the top of our 50-foot pine tree. Every day is a new adventure in Living!! Have a GREAT day unless you have other plans!
Love to you both, Leslie Ann & Fred!!
Leslie Ann & Fred, thank you so much for the thoughtful comment. I agree with you- we are also very different people with very different abilities but I like to think that we balance each other out. It truly does take a lifetime to get to know a person and there are some things that occur in a relationship that only time can purchase. I’m grateful for many years together. It hasn’t always been easy but it’s always been worth it.
I’m sure seeing us somewhere other than buried in snow was a shock! We had a lovely time in the sunshine visiting with our son and his lovely fiancé. It is a wonderful thing to be able to travel and in 12 hours be in a completely different climate!
We so appreciate you being here with us and watching each week. Peace and blessing to you both! 🥰 ~T&G
24:00 I have never seen snow. I'm very excited about it. The feeling will be great
Wow look at that snow Tennessee people would freak out lol!! Beautiful if we get three inches they go grocery and buy up all the bread and milk!!😆
You two are amazing !!
Haha! So true! It’s a completely different experience when you live prepared for lots of snow! The only time the kids here miss school is if it turns to freezing rain which seems to happen about once per winter. Other than that, we power through 😂. A foot of snow overnight? No problem! -35 degrees below zero? No problem! We are t quite as prepared for heatwaves but they’re pretty rare lol. Thanks for watching, Janet and for taking time to comment. Take care. 😊
Wonderful video, G & T, & Stella!!👍😊
We three thank you Cindy! Have a lovely weekend. ❤️
Is very good to see you again, I like an exellent team, you, your wife and Stella and I hope enjoyed the visit with your son and I expect another video!!
Guadalupe, thank you for the kind comment. We did so enjoy the time with our son. We are glad you are here and anticipating the next video. Peace and blessing to you friend. 😊
eure Videos sind toll, herzlichen Dank, dass wir sie miterleben dürfen.
Since discovering the channel several months ago, I look forward to every Friday. I would like to say thank you to both of you because it was by looking at you that I opened my eyes to the beauty of the world and of humanity. It is lost nowadays. Thank you for your smiles and your complicity. Also, I am grateful to you because it was by looking at you that I realized that I had to change my professional path and get into carpentry .... Congratulations to you, thank you again for all that you bring to people who are watching you. Love from France
I lived in Dallas for 20 years. I was so fascinated by size of the gorillas in Dallas zoo.
Sadly we didn’t get a very good look at them! They were mostly out of sight for us and we kind of ran out of time so we couldn’t camp out and wait for their appearance 😕. Overall it was very fun though. We also visited the botanical gardens in Dallas, have you ever been? They were AMAZING! ~Tanya
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Yes sir I have, thanks.
Another brilliant video, I must say I'm a bit envious it looks absolutely stunning there in your lovely part of Alaska.
Diane, thank you so very much! It is a very rugged part of Alaska but we wholeheartedly agree- it is a stunning area. ❤️ We are grateful that you are here on this journey with us and that you took time to comment. Take care friend.
I've never seen a humble kind people in UA-cam likes you guys you always send greeting to the followers and thanking th em for their support I swear God if I moved to Canada I will come to Alaska visiting you guys , sending my love and respect to you and to your beautiful wife and of course to the fluffy stella❤
I love & enjoy watching this blog.. while sitting & watching from my couch with my A/C on … but no ways I will dream of living in a place like that … very depressing 🤣🤣🤣
I understand 😊 Thanks for watching
Siete una bella coppia vi auguro tanta felicita un saluto dall'Italia 🇮🇹
I really like how you work. Excellent comment on the equipment that is not sponsored. A hug and a caress to Stella from Italy.
Hello kind friend all the way from Italy! Thank you for being here with us. Stella sends doggie kisses and we three say- have a wonderful weekend! Peace to you from Alaska.
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Thanks, good weekend to you three too.
I have to say what a sweet couple you are. Chokes me up. Cheers and shalom from Eureka, CA.... Love Alaska. Been there 5 times in the Coast Guard and visiting family in Kodak when they were stationed there in the 70’s...
Good evening Tim. Thank you my friend. You are so kind. We enjoyed hearing about your travels to Kodiak. My wife and I traveled there last summer and spent several wonderful days. It is so beautiful. Hope to see you hear one day my friend. Peace to you from Alaska
Tim, we love your comment. It’s especially cool to hear from a friend who shares our love for this great state. Kodiak is a beautiful place! When you visit again, you must come and visit and have a cup of coffee with us. Thank you for being here, friend. Peace & blessing to you from the three of us. 🥰
It’s amazing the amount of snow that builds up over the course of a winter…by the time it’s all melted away your probably half way through summer….LOL…..
Yes!! That is actually one of my bigger concerns at the moment 😂! I’m wondering how many actual weeks of summer I should expect! I’m scared lol. Thanks for watching & take care. ~T
@@ThisIsMyAlaska no need to thank me Gale it’s always a pleasure watching your vlogs….I thank you for putting in the time and effort in producing these vlogs for your fans to watch….so huge thanks to you
I’m from Missouri and think you have an awesome channel. I am learning so much and being entertained at the same time! Who can ask for more??? You are beautiful people/beautiful family..
Mary, we love hearing that you are learning and also enjoying watching our videos, this is everything we could hope for. Thank you very much for the lovely and heartfelt comment. Peace and blessing from our family to yours.
My home state Mary 👍👍
ها قد جات جمعه اخرى واستمتعت بالعمل انا لا افهم الكلام عندما تتكلمون بسبب اللغه ولكن استشعر بكم من خلال عملكم الممتع والجميل انته مبدع وروجتك امراه قويه ومبدعه وتعمل معك بجد انتم زوجين مبدعين اتمنى لكم السعاده في حياتكم الجميله سلامي لكم من القلب يااصديقاي
Another beautiful morning watching the Sun come up and watching another beautiful video from Alaska, it never gets old. I love what you are willing to do to keep the camp grounds alive, it takes time but with the intelligence and knowledge that you have is amazing. Your craftsmanship is amazing also. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. See you on the next video ✌️
So. Much. Snow. lol I can't even imagine it all melting before the snows start again. I love your videos of Alaska.
Judy, same!!! It better hurry if it’s going to be green before next winter! Thank you so much for watching friend. Have a peaceful weekend.
@@ThisIsMyAlaska - thanks! You too!
Isaac Hoskins and The Glass Mountain Orchestra sound good! Reminds me of Counting Crows! Another great video. Yup, that workshop is gonna be a lot of work. Looking forward to it.
You guys live the life I dream of. Thanks for letting us take this journey with you!.
Jonathan, thank you for the lovely comment and for being here with us. Kindred souls make the journey all the sweeter. Peace to you.
Thanks for another good video about your cabin project. I laughing about Stella when she run up at the snow piles and she look she is the happiest dog in the world. :)
Haha, thanks Hans. She is probably the most spoiled as well!
Stella is so patient while you two work! Love to see your progress in the cabin - and glad you had a trip to Texas to warm up.
Good morning Teresa. It was a huge climate shift in just a few hours. We kept remarking to each other how we could not quite believe we were wearing insulated bibs and parkas Just a few hours earlier 😊
The depth of the snow keeps the wind off of the walls at least….well, glad you put up the insulation. I’m sure it is going the make the nights much more comfortable.
We had temps in the 70s last week! I was wearing a hoody thicker than the flannel you wear all time so I could stay warm while walking my pup. LOL
Yes! The wind just whistles around the edges of the roof on this building. We will be adding insulation to the walls though. The existing stuff is pretty minimal.
The one liners were great today!
T - "I'm a law unto myself" (My personal favorite)
T - "Rude"
G - "Rude? You don't quite understand job-site etiquette." (Viewers know G would never subject T to true "job-site etiquette".)
Also, I imagine all viewers know that if you ever do make paid endorsements it will only be because it is something that you use and like, not because someone is paying to use your credibility with us. I can think of only one other channel where I'd trust recommendations like I would trust yours. When the time is right don't hesitate to accept promotions, I would always be interested in your opinions on products and services.
Keep letting the laughter and love shine through while you tackle your projects!
Steve, your comment made us smile and we so appreciate your kindness and trust in our opinions. One day we would like to get a promotion but for now we’ll just keep on shamelessly showing all the products we use 🤷♀️😂. It is good to have you here in this space with us, thank you so very much for your friendship and support. Peace and blessing to you from the three of us. ~T
Hello my name is Peter I’m from New Jersey I enjoy watching you very much you do fantastic work I’m so happy that I found you guys on UA-cam I enjoy very much watching
Thank you Peter and welcome to our channel
DEEP DEEP SNOW‼️‼️ Great Video as always ‼️‼️. Vinny 🇺🇸
I'm always so fascinated by the process of renovation. The techniques you use and the order of operations keeps me coming back for more. I am amused by how you push your 'tools' to their limits. Tanya is very good about letting you know her limits LOL. Take care of your tools! (No ... I don't think Tanya is a tool. It's just a figure of speech wink wink) You two are a delight. I was married for 30 years until my spouse passed. That was12 years ago. We did everything together and rarely needed time apart. When you have the right partner, it's just like that. It was great to see that you got away to some warmth and sunshine. There are benefits to bits of the family living in different parts, yes? Thanks for another fun video!
I’ve been to the Dallas Zoo, we enjoyed it! We try to visit Zoos in every new adventure. I love the new property! Just from watching your channel I have all the confidence it will turn out nice as all your projects have. Glad you got to visit your son!!
you guys have been married for 37 years!!? wow that's awesome you guys look stunning!
brother gale a thousand thanks to you and tanya for sharing another member of your family their children are our brothers we love them too gale tanya they have from what I see many followers of a single family they have dad and mom and their two children and two dogs waiting your weekly videos thank you for it from medellin colombia greetings to gale tanya and his son in dallas with his girlfriend we want a handshake and good luck
Am I the only one who wonders how that pizza turned out gonna have to make one that way now just to find out thanks for taking us along cant wait to see how this project ends up
Joseph, we have had really good pizza on the grill but the struggle is getting the coals really low. We’ve had great success with our little electric grill but we’re still struggling a little with the temp on the charcoal one. It was good but could’ve been better. Thanks for watching and for taking time to comment! Peace friend.
From a person who’s marriage failed, it’s a joy to see how it should be, felt sorry for you when you were trying to read about the glue on tube and then realized your eyes are okay 👌, mine are shot. My twin and l are renovating a little motorhome, maybe we will make it up to see you some day… might need to hire a driver/mechanic making sure we cross all our T’s
Good morning Mary-Lou. It is so nice to hear from you. Yes, my eyes are one thing that still works fairly well. I am grateful for that. Good luck on the renovation of your little camper. If you guys find your driver/mechanic, we would love to share a cup of coffee with you.
Stella have to much fun in the snow
Haha, yes! She is a riot
It's going to be warmer in the cabin tonight. Shop is going to be a nice place to work out of. It's a lot warmer in Dallas than AK now. Have fun.
Good evening Richard. Yes, we had a much warmer night after insulating. We are excited about our shop too. It will be a nice place when completed.
Holy cow. Saw the animals and was like what??? Bet it was nice to not see snow even though it is pretty. Glad to see you visiting the family. We had snow in western MD this week and Sunday it will be 83. This MD weather is crazy. Everything is looking good at the house. I’m sure you are loving the warm ceiling.
It's funny to see she is wearing sunglasses when doing insulation. Look like a mysterious lady...😀
Haha! Yes, I thought it was funny too when I watched the video! We have several pair of safety glasses floating around here and I didn’t even know that we had sunglasses style 😂. Oh well, I’ve always believed that a girl should maintain a bit of mystery 😉. Take care friend & thank you for being here. ~Tanya
@@ThisIsMyAlaska 😀lovely!! Indeed, a girl should always maintain a bit of mystery, I buy that. You take good care and I'll keep watching your videos which brings me to a place where I might not be able to visit
When the charcoal grill was being rolled out, I knew then things were about to get serious. Enjoy your content.
Haha yes! We are glad that it has warmed up to the point that grilling out is not such a test of our grit 😉. Thanks for watching Roger. Have a great weekend.
I dearly love watching your channel since I came across it - I have a dream of visiting Alaska one day. My Uncle James lived in Alaska since he left Ireland as a young man and joined the army & Fought in Vietnam- he passed last year regretfully aged 90 yrs. You sure need good insulation there as I do now living in Australia for heat and cold down south. You are a great team and work well together - have fun creating your home away from home.
Thank you Elenor. So glad you are here. Hope you visit Alaska one day! Peace
13:30 Hahahaha ... You can talk all you want, but Tanya is in a whole nother world. She's thinking her own stuff, as she's going through what's there. :-D
Haha! I completely admit that I was off in my own world there for a bit 😂. There’s so
Much stuff in there it’s like sensory overload! Thanks for being here friend, and for your keen assessment of the situation lol. Take care!
Great video guys 👏👏👏👏👏. Love watching all the improvements
Thanks so much Kathy
