      I think it was actually you that convinced us to keep this one when you told us about tortoise cats so thankyou. She is always somewhere where she shouldn't be but so lovely bless her 🙏😄😄😄

    Another great video guys! And Dave, we all been there, I think the worst thing someone can say to me is that I need to assemble those contraptions, for real they never seal at first try! Well the not is closer to be finished and that's what matters! Great job!

      I've seen a lot of people doing them in the oven or these little drying machines I may try this next year as you can't beat a jar of sun-dried tomatoes and feta in olive oil I could eat that with fresh break all day haha

      @@escapetothequinta Right now it is around zero degrees at night and 5-10 degrees during the day🥶. And colder it will be! Also, we just had a storm called Jakob which was a bit annoying ... The sun sets sooner and sooner every day and rises later and later. In late december it is dark around 3 PM. But on the other hand, in summertime it sets as late as 10 PM. You have to stay positive and enjoy the contrasts😀.

  • @Liz-cy6gc
    @Liz-cy6gc Місяць тому +1

    I recommend adding a pipe to guide the water away from the wall so you don’t have dampness on the wall for the space below your home. Not sure if that makes sense, but another pipe so it doesn’t make a pool of water by the wall.

    • @escapetothequinta
      @escapetothequinta  Місяць тому

      Thankyou. I see what you mean the plan is to connect it to the same pipe that the shower is connected to so it all runs off way away from the barn into a grey water tank 🙏😄😄😄

    It’s preference more then anything but I would have run the water pipe inside that nice wooden base to the back of it and made the basin flush to the wall if it’s possible

    • @escapetothequinta
      @escapetothequinta  Місяць тому

      I was actually thinking of this first but the sink makes it so it won't go flush anyway so I was like may as well. Really should get a square sink and push it right back. It'll do for now haha
