Sorry, I was laughing hysterically when Todd said “This is going to be the best outhouse ever!” You totally deserve to be impressed with all the hard work you both put in.
I could not love more your target practice method of putting holes in the culvert for drainage. Made me smile at the cleverness and it's good to always practice your shooting skills! I hope you enjoyed your vacation, it sounded perfect to me. Todd needs to find a second kit of fishing equipment to leave at the cabin😊
I wish there were a "love" button to push! You work hard but make it look so easy. I loved watching this episode! Thank you for sharing your days with us!!
My husband and I don't see eye and eye on everything...but we are closest and get along most when we are in the garden or when we are building something together. Couples are supposed to help one another, as you two model so well!
I really love when you go to camp even when you work, it never felt like work to me, just one of the things you'd do while camping. I live it with you vicariously. Camping has always been 1 of my favorite things to do. I miss it very much.
Keep an extra rod reel and fishing tackle at your cabin very beautiful cold stream should be able to do some awesome fishing very beautiful surroundings will definitely refresh and renew the soul
If you rehydrate with warm water and put in the fridge. I do them the night before, shake shake shake, every time you walk by the fridge. That’s my tip 😊 Great job on that outhouse!! Looks like perfect teamwork 🌺
The job you did on the outhouse was great. Your cabin looks like a great pass to decompress. Thanks for making the video. Look forward to your next ones.
Maybe some simple more upright cart with bicycle style wheels for hauling water up the hill? I have not seen anyone do it yet, but what about a small solar pump that does a small trickle all day?
Wowsers. Where do you both find the energy!!! Homestead at the main home - so much to do..And then a cabin in the woods, where you have to do even more again"
@@1870s You know what. Many people who keep "toiling in the garden" as they age seem to stay fitter, healthier an younger than their counterparts who do not. Remaining active is key. And you two must be rushed off your feet!!! Great set up. Really enjoying the videos from across the pond in England... :)
I remember hearing a guy tell me that at their summer cabin they would spend all summer there and the last thing his mom did before they packed up, she would open 2 pkgs of yeast and dump them in the outhousee. In the spring they would come back to an empty outhouse. The yeast actively ate what was in there. I have no clue is that was true and I can't remember who it was and the fact that it's been decades. Anyway... may be worth a try to experiment??
Do more of those. Looks like a Glock, classic square top frame; recoil light; probably 9mm. - The better bear repellant. Now that you have blueberries by the cabin. Always keep a cheapie fishing rod set and some tackle at the cabin. That’s where those $25 Zebco rod and real sets come in handy. They work.
@@1870s Don't forget to leave some polaroid sun glasses. The camera view of the water looked good though. MREs for a day trip fishing work well for lunch/necessities: TP, matches. Just grab and GO things when the fishing is ON!
I look forward to your videos, especially when you're at the off grid cabin. What was the dust you sprinkled on your eggs? I thought I heard farm or parm dust. I saw that you use steak dust on the burgers. I'm always on the look out for new seasonings to try. Have a great little vacation at the cabin!! Love from California, Sam
That brings back a very fond memory of mine. Yrs ago bowhunting In colorado, we reluctantly bathed in cattle tanks that were fed with mountain water. One commented afterwards, those goose bumps sprang the dirt right off of us, and he was right! But we were thankful for the cleanse.
@@1870s do you have to get building permit if you buy land and decide to build a 16x16, tiny home with a compost toilet, and rainwater catchment barrels?
Did you see where Biden signed an international agreement that we would stop growing food. Please Stock up on food and grow your own food. Thank you for everything you’re doing to help everyone learn gardening
Hey friends we love watching yawl at the cabin. Like the way you put holes in the pipe, 🤠 God Bless.
When we finish a project we always stand back and admire our work. Every time you go to the outhouse you can sit down and admire your hard work!
Hahaha! I see what you did there 😂
Sorry, I was laughing hysterically when Todd said “This is going to be the best outhouse ever!” You totally deserve to be impressed with all the hard work you both put in.
After hand-digging that hole for 2+ hours it better be the best one ever 😀
I love the off grid cabin videos! To me they are second to canning and cooking videos! ❤ also, love how y’all added weep holes to the big tube 😉
Absolutely beautiful! I was with you all just enjoying the peace and quiet. So relaxing! Thank you

i plan on bringing all my fly fishing gear, and just leaving it up there. Don't use it but once a year or so back at home.
I live here. Interesting that it's a getaway for others
I kind felt like I was on a mini vacation with you. Thanks! I needed that.
I love how you perforated your pipe.
The hummingbird sound was so cool! Y'all are so blessed, take care. I hope y'all have a great vacation.
I almost fell asleep watching this, The peaceful sounds around your cabin and your creek sounds are great . Now that's a vacation !
Oh so peaceful. Enjoy your vacation

What a wonderful day. Thanks for sharing while you’re on vacation. Loved the outhouse project. So resourceful. 👍
I grew up using an outhouse. It had two seats, i had a great childhood, wonderful memories
My husband and I don't see eye and eye on everything...but we are closest and get along most when we are in the garden or when we are building something together. Couples are supposed to help one another, as you two model so well!
Oh...such a fun way to put in holes!!! LOVE IT!
Thanks for sharing your time with us.
Your weep hole method!!!😂 I am deceased!😂😂😂😂

I love this! This seems so peaceful.
That looks a lot more fun than using a drill to get holes!!!!!!😂
Love the hole making tool !
Cabin time is always a treat. Local meats are great! I'm glad to find little shops to try while I'm out & about.
What a beautiful space you have!!
I just found you two searching canning videos, and I love your channel!! I look forward to see what you bring to all of us!!😊
I love your method for creating holes. That's how my husband and I would have done it.
Rachel was out cutting dirt with the lawn mower. LOL.
I live in the woods, so mowing dirt is part of woodland life 😂.
My dream❤ thank you for letting me be part of your day
Keep an extra rod reel and fishing tackle at your cabin very beautiful cold stream should be able to do some awesome fishing very beautiful surroundings will definitely refresh and renew the soul
That piece of tubing you have left you can use as a raised bed for herbs. 🌿🌱❤️
It's so beautiful and peaceful at your cabin, I bet it smells so fresh too
What a beautiful vacation spot. Enjoy
Looks like a fun relaxing weekend
You are going to have so much fun this summer you won't ever want to garden or can again!
I need an off grid cabin! Thanks for sharing your time with us.
If you rehydrate with warm water and put in the fridge. I do them the night before, shake shake shake, every time you walk by the fridge. That’s my tip 😊
Great job on that outhouse!! Looks like perfect teamwork 🌺
Love cooking on the grill
What an amazingly beautiful get away home
I love breakfast for supper!
Now that sounds like a good t-shirt slogan: "Sometimes you have to mow your forest." 😁
Excellent Video! Full of interesting content! I love the blonde sand there. Amazing how much of that sand is there.
God is reminding us to enjoy his creation for us 🙏 ❤️
9:25- were going to add some weep holes! lol I guess you are! Caught me totally by surprise :)
thanks for taking us along to your paradise, Michigan is a great place to relax and vacation. I envy your cabin, even if you must carry up the water!
My grandfather had a pocket reel he took everywhere. May need to invest in one of those 😂.
Hello! I just want to thank you for starting me off on my canning journey a few years ago. God bless!
Have a wonderful vacation 🙏🏽♥️

I'm not sure where the energy comes from, we just keep going. Keeps us young 😃

I love time at the cabin. I feel like I’m there
Love the outhouse.
Wish my granny had a nice one when I was visiting there for summer.😅😅
ENJOY! :)
Glad you got away to relax some. Weather in Northeast Connecticut was nineties last week and forties and fifties this week. 🥶
So nice and peaceful ❤❤
Good to relax im sure
Hi there from Brighton Michigan
You did a GREAT job on the outhouse.
Freeze dried Eggs is 1 tbsp. Eggs to 2 tbsp. Water to reconstitute.
A very nice upgrade to the out-house which should add several years to it's longevity. What was the seasoning you added to the eggs? Thanks
Enjoy your vacation! 😁
We do the outhouse “bucket” system at our cabin, but with one weekend, it’s full. This is a great idea
What a great idea!
Great video. I use the Farm Dust too. We put it on almost everything...Mrs.Steve
It's like your own private world when you're there.❤
Love love seeing your adventures at the cabin!
That's the most bad ass way to add weep holes ever. Your property looks so peaceful and serene, beautiful place.
Man…nice job on the Outhouse! Really nice…
I would skinny dip by the creek and wash up there 😂😂😂😂
If you fall into an outhouse, you could be there for many moons 😅 that was my grandpa's joke.
Thank you for sharing. I love the stream tgars where i would be

Hi Rachel and Todd😊
I hope Todd was ok. He is such a hard worker. I was wondering if he charges to teach other men? LOL!
I've missed you❤
Looks nice there
Holy Hannah!
Did I hear them say I slept in till 8 o clock? Bless your Hearts 💕 I Wish
Yup, at home we're up much earlier.
Beautiful 💚🌞

I'm just going to bring my fly gear there and leave it. Rarely use it here at home, unless I'm bass fishing - and I can use other gear for those.
Good guess, G19 MOS 😃

Bathe in the river Nice place to get away
it's mostly all spring fed, super cold.

Enjoy🇺🇸❤️
2 tbsp egg to 3 tbsp water
I’m guessing you’re getting a composting toilet!
Where did you get the money to buy the sausage?
We both work and have jobs.
Do you add salt to your freeze dried eggs?
no
Do you guys have hummers at the cabin? have you seen them at your house yet? Im near Detroit Metro Airport and they have not made it to my house.
Can you legally live off grid in Michigan? I was to live in Grand Junction MI near South Haven. Ty
Yes
@@1870s do you have to get building permit if you buy land and decide to build a 16x16, tiny home with a compost toilet, and rainwater catchment barrels?
without being specific of course...
what area of michigan are you in ?
our homestead is SE Michigan, our Cabin is NW Lower Penninsula.
ok cool.
I have a small cabin and 49 acres in Vanderbilt just north of Gaylord.
it is very peaceful sort of what I see your place as. God Bless
Nice! Hope the fires up there aren't near your place ♥
You guys need kids to play and kick that sand back around the tube! 🤣🤣. But it would work!
❤❤
Great idea with the culvert. U know company’s will come and clean the outhouse ..
👍💞
let eggs sit 20 minutes...equal parts
