Preparing for the Cold at My Cabin
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 лип 2024
- Getting ready for the big shift in seasons here in the mountains. I chose to tackle the fallen pine tree, as it was inconveniently in the way of one of the main walking paths on the property. In the future, I hope to create all of my own firewood using proper technique all around (with an earlier start and better wood). We did find another option for firewood at this point, so I can begin to rest in that regard. If you are curious about why there are two cabins, please visit my video explaining it "Moving into an Old A-Frame Cabin in the Woods". As a brief follow up to my previous video regarding the trespassing, there has oddly been no real update. I will share once I know more...

Ally, you are one of the most capable women I've ever seen, and you're not even that old. Watching you chop wood, clean the chimney, work on the cabin is so inspirational. Sometimes you start doing something and I think, ' no, she won't do that, or be able to do that", but you just plow through. Then you go to the garden, get some vegetables like you know exactly what you're doing, and go in the kitchen and start cooking like a chef. Amazing.
I was thinking exactly the same thing as I watched this video! Ally you are an amazing, strong, resourceful woman! So inspiring! ❤️😊
I think every woman inspires to be like you in some way.
@@MelodyDeGuzman-gf7snevery woman? Hey, I’m a man and I’m dazzled by the toughness and resourcefulness as well as the calm of this woman.
I’d never be able to survive and thrive as she is.

You are very self-reliant and willing to learn a new skill. Kyle sure picked a Jewel.
That's what i call empowered woman. Not afraid of dealing with issues life brings every day, and continuing prepping, and most important using Common Sense, something that feels is missing in these days, for you been so young, I'm proud of you. Keep doing that amazing path that its in front of you.
I'm so proud of you young lady! You continue to amaze me with your willingness to take on new projects that in most cases would be performed by a man. Good for you, good for Kyle! You make a beautiful couple!
The cabin looks great thanks to your hard work!
I read an article about Martha Stewart growing potatoes in hay bales. She said it's a game changer because they don't need cleaning when they're harvested.
This was a wonderful video Ally!! I’m reminded that when you heat with wood it warms you up 3 times. Cutting and splitting, hauling and stacking, and burning. Kudos on your stovepipe install. You’re very handy with your projects. See you next time. ❤️
You are so knowledgeable with your herbs. I always enjoy all of your infusions and concoctions. Your wreath was gorgeous. Awesome wood stove assembly and cleaning and your stove is beautiful. Many blessings.❤😊
Good job, cleaning out the chimney cutting up the firewood and harvesting your garden, which looks wonderful and delicious. So much to get done this time of year on top of all the rain that part of the country has been having. The new wood burner is beautiful. Mary’s bags look sturdy and well made. 👍👏
Your devotional work of tending your hearth and filling your soul with nature’s magic lifts the whole planet to a higher vibration!
I ordered from On the Road Again and I loved doing business with Mary! I bought 2 pine candles from her and enjoyed them all year long. If you love the smell of pine there's no better time than the upcoming season to purchase one. It is long lasting and the freshest, cleanest, most realistic smelling pine candle that I've ever owned. Thanks Ally for speaking about her wonderful products. Enjoyed your video..stay warm and cozy in this beautiful, but chilly New England weather. ✌🍃🍃🍂🍁🌲
On the Road Again makes a great product. I bought my wife a bag and she loves it. Took it as our go to bag on our two week Yellowstone and Rocky Mountain National park trip. Highly recommend
WHAT A, WOMAN.. I HOPE KYLE REALISES HOW LUCKY HE IS... 💪YOU'RE LIKE WONDER WOMAN...✌️.. SO FANTASTIC TO WATCH YOU JUST GET ON WITH EVERYTHING... I'M GLAD HE'S BACK HOME WITH YOU NOW.. YOU TWO SHOULD BE TOGETHER..THANK YOU THIS WAS JUST GREAT TO WATCH ❤
I love your content and has been quite educational deepening my own skill sets in herbalism. I love how you made fire cider and witch hazel. My grandmother even used witch hazel for bruises, scrapes & scratches, bug bites, varicose veins, and cleaning out wounds or punctures we would get on the farm but didn't need a doctor for. People with rosacea should be careful, though, so as not to aggravate their conditions. Thank you so much for what you share and blessings on your endeavors
As someone who has been splitting wood for many years, Ally is a professional!!❤
Your an inspiration to women everywhere - giving us a new perspective to living an off grid life.
I admire your courage, strength and perseverance.
I look forward to each video - keep on and know your amazing!
Ally, enjoy the journey,.🎉
Lol
Hi sweet Ally Good to see you again. You remind me a lot of my Daughter.(smiles) The cabin looks so good. You two did a lot of hard work. It payed off, looks like a Dime! Your Reef looks so pretty and makes you feel warm and welcome. Hugs!
Good morning Ally ! Beautiful day here in Pensacola 54 degrees this morning ,we love the Autumn air you sent us ! With the windows and doors open and a spritz of your product it really helps freshen up things around here !
This is my favorite of your videos so far, It was really beautiful! So satisfying to make a meal from your garden and you dealt with that Chonky zucchini with ease. I am excited to see what you will grow at the A frame house too.
Good job Ally on collecting the wood and installing the wood stove. I loved your brown dress, so nice for Autumn. I find it so interesting watching what you an made from all kinds all things in nature. I never knew witch hazel came from a tree I thought it would have been a shrub and you would only use the flower or leaves. I learn so much x
You are amazing!!! Handling everything so capably! Great job Ally!
You are amazing Ally!
I am amazed you climbed that tall ladder and cleaned the chimney out. Yes I agree, you tackle projects with strength and knowledge.
I am in awe of your strength - physically, emotionally and spiritually You are amazing, be proud, be very proud. :)
Ally, you're a super woman. I'm so proud of all of your accomplishments .
🍂🧡🍁🧡🍁🍂
From California I have been looking forward to your fall ! I come from a country with 4 seasons. (the Netherlands) fall is my favorite season and I love the brilliant colors of fall in the East Coast. Stay warm and safe ! Much love to you 🙏💕🌷
Marie and I love watching your videos. They calm us...like no other that we watch. Marie is so impressed by how handy you are. Thanks for sharing all the activities that you do around the house and cabin. BTW, we hope that you find good neighbors for the cabin. Hate that you went through the struggles that you've been going through with the town/county. It really isn't fair.
All our best to you and Kyle.
Yo personalmente las agujas del pino no las guardo en conserva, ya que sólo tomo té con ellas y cuando las necesito sólo tengo que salir de casa y a tres metros de distancia tengo los pinos de hoja perenne con lo cual no hay problema de desabastecimiento.
Por cierto las traducciones al español de UA-cam son de lo más surrealista, te daría para hacer varios vídeos con tremendo humor.
🌱🌿🪻🌷💚
I love watching your videos …. Such natural beauty being shared … thank you ❤
Whoa- so proud how you tackle a problem logically and meet the task head -on. So amazing, Ally! I should not be surprised cause that is how you roll in daily life. Kudos!
You rock Ally as usual. Great job with the wood and the stoves ! Beautiful video, giving me peace….
You are a strong brave gal! I applaud how much you do all by yourself. #girlpower
I'm happy to see that you both may still be at the cabin.❤
I am happy to see that you both are still at the cabin.
I always enjoy watching you prepare different meals. Everything looks fresh, healthy and tasty!
Ally just came across your blog. I hope you are not alone up at the cabin. More and more people r choosing the simple life living off grid and having the peace and quiet of living in the woods.
The resin in the pine is the culprit..I know you stated you had to cut that pine,ok,but you know the hardwoods are what you need …love your place and what you are doing…this is the first video I have seen of yours…(Oct. 24,’23). Very nicely done! Love those overalls,my go to clothing from about late October thru February! be safe,stay healthy God bless from Central Texas! 👍👌Beautiful wooded area where you are,and your garden is great!
Hi Ally, happy to see you enjoying nature and the cabin. Hope you guys were able to solve your issue with the trespassers and the city.❤
Thank you for Mary at On the Road Again. Beautiful. I will buy from her!
You are living a wonderful life in the company of nature. May God always keep you healthy and prosperous.This rich and pure lifestyle seems to be from another world.
this is lowkey my dream life, I love the peace and quiet and all I have to do is mind my own business.
Be safe for the cold weather coming up
Wow Ally, you are one impressive woman. I so admire your strength, creativity and spirit. ❤️🧡💛🤎
Love your videos. Your Voice is so calming and therapeutic to me!
Thanks for sharing your Life!!👋🙏♥️✌️👍😄
I love your videos, Ally. They inspire me to be stronger physically, eat healthy and live life at a slower pace, being mindful of everything I do. I know I can incorporate these things into my daily life and I yearn to. Thank you so much. Much love. ❤
Beautiful vlog ! The dinner you made looked so yummy. I ordered a bag from "On The Road Again"! Looking forward tog getting it. I also love the Fall Room Spray I ordered from you..our house smells like Fall cookies baking now. Have a great week!❣🙂
I sent a message about this topic to Kyle I know he was thinking about being interested in it.... Hunting your own protein and with the rural area you live in, I think harvesting fresh venison would complete the 'circle' of living off the land. Nothing better than real organic clean meat. Here in Southern California it's like gold to me!
Thank you, Ally!
Wow look at you !! Cleaning the chimney…. Is there anything you cannot do !
I do enjoy your videos, always learning always sharing, wonderful.
The grace of your industry and willingness to take on projects delights and inspires me to do more myself. You radiate the virtues of hands in motion, heart engaged. Thank you for sharing your spirit’s beacon.
So powerful with that axe ally!! Awesome hard work.
great to see you back at the cabin, lovely video
Such an inspiration and I learn so much
Thank you! must need to watch your videos. always bring so much peace.

Thoreau would envy you. Respect! 😊
Very good idea
Nice to meet you
Loveee the way you film and all the angles it’s so good
Received your oil . Gorgeous! Love it!
Wow. I hope to find someone like you who can hold their own in many ways. And watching your food prep makes me hungry... Great vid and great camera work too. :)
Glad you found a way to negotiate with the town. And you and Kyle can enjoy the cabin.
What a wonderful video! You show your skills and willingness to take on pretty hefty projects. You and Kyle are a natural match! Lovely family who help you as well!
You’re a beautiful poet and inspirational! Amen

I have experienced nearly 64 rotations around the sun come this November 2: all souls day, alone and living like this. it is a beautiful life! As a creative, I cannot imagine anything better* Blessings and abundance to you and yours*
Great video Ally!
Hello Alley a beautiful 😍 presentation ❤, absolutely 💯.
You need amazing with the chain saw ,and your fire cider sure looked interesting.
Thanks for sharing 👍 greetings from England 🇬🇧 Simon and Beth ❤️ 😀 🙋
Nice job Ally.
Beautiful place 👍👍👍
You’re cabin is beautiful it looks great
Amazing content as usual . You are truly inspiring and smart hardworking woman . Kyle lucky to have you & Vice versa ❤🎉
Great video and great story line.
most excellent that you preach and practice chimney safety.
I'm in NE as well and the season definitely turned last week. Fall is in full swing, get that wood pile bulked up.
nice chimney sweep
Hello, Ally, we enjoyed the video! My wife and I have always admired what a hard worker you are. Your garden did great this year! And that is such a beautiful wood stove. We were glad to see your Dad went over while you cleaned the flue. Thank you for the video.
Really very nice >>>>>> Thank you .
Wow you’re amazing! I really admire you 😊
I love your videos!!! ❤
Cutting and splitting wood is something I could do all day every day, great job! And true, although softwood isn’t the best to burn inside, it was free and good use of a resource 😊
You are doing so well, Ally! Cutting standing dead is a good choice for more than firewood. It is great for making rustic furniture. You could tackle that very easily. It is also creative and fun and gives you beautiful useful furniture. Just g food for thought. Take care. Love and hugs, mar🌻
I am impressed with your ambition. I hope Kyle gets back to help you. It is cool to watch you collect plants and explain what they are good for. You need to write a book Ally's diary journey. Good for you.
Very nice Video Ally. If you don't yet know its my guess if you want larger bulbs of garlic if you put heavy compost on and under your cloves and chose the largest cloves to plant you will have much larger bulbs to harvest. Plant in fall right? Be well Ally
Just found and subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to binging some episodes!
@ 6:35...dinner for days!!😊
And @ 19:39 I'm LOVING how you both are so resourceful and responsible. How many would have simply let the extra go to waste!
~Enjoying the journey with you😊
this woman is a jack of all trades literally, she even clean chiminy,next time to get the most from ginger crush it then put in the jar. Good job lady.
Thank you
Hell ya! You go girl 👏👏👏👏👏💯
I envy your way of living💯 most of us can’t even imagine to live a simple life like that💯 But it’s worth
You are amazing! 💕
Awesome video ❤❤
