      I watched it since you first started at the elderly gentleman’s property. I love your videos and love seeing the progress. I’m the one who’s grand daughter lives on Grassy. Reek Rd. where you put a bid into. I wish you had gotten that one then you would’ve been closer in Greene County.

    Just a note: My grandmother once told me, that she never names the animals she's planning to butcher. If they have a name they were pets or breeding stock only.

    You both have ridden the roller coaster of emotions this year from such joy and elation at getting the property to the loss of Floyd. Lots of tedious and slow work with the house that no one will ever see but you know is there and done properly. Be proud of this year and what you have accomplished. I hope you have lots of new fun projects and discoveries in 2023 that Nate can get more joy from. Great video! ❤

    I appreciate your videos and all the hard work you've put into the place. And I'm gonna say thank you for that glimpse of the pig carcass in the front loader (even though I'd studiously skipped the pig harvesting episode due to personal qualms), for pushing me to lean harder into strict pescatarianism in my own life. I was so sad just from that one glimpse! So thank you for spurring me to live closer to my own ideals. :)
