As always, we are so grateful to have you joining us on our journey here and we appreciate all your support ♡
Andy is a perfect example of why the Apprenticeship concept has worked so well for centuries - not to reinforce "because we have always done it that way", but "here's WHY we always do it this way".
Of course, this assumes you have apprentices who want to learn, as he obviously did.
Andy you're a legend. A rare mix of extremely knowledgeable engineer, extraordinarily hardworking/capable, and friendly/kind soul = a treasure!
Couldn’t have said it better ourselves 😁
Also... he is so HOT. OMG. ;D
I love that we aren't just watching you guys build, we're learning. About the different trades, tools and the local plant life. It's really awesome how you guys are working with the locals and actually working WITH them. Thanks for another amazing episode.❤ from Oklahoma
23:02 "Where's the forces ?" - everyone knows that "the force is with you" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like how you re-purposed the rock to spare cement. Any time you can save material, effort and money is a good tip ❤
How encouraging! Your castle is really starting to take shape. Especially the retaining wall, and Andy sounds like he has a degree in engineering. You two are so likable that makes it a great work environment.
Use your Sawzall or jigsaw without a blade as a concrete vibrator. Helps the concrete flow and fill in all the small areas.
Lol the coveralls with the Crocs was definitely a good look
I love how the cats have come around and trust you. They love you.
Brittany you got super girl power brilliant job 👏 🙌
Hat looks a lot like a palmello . The very thick ring of the rind is a dead giveaway. They are usually not as tart as grape fruit. Love you guys ! Keep up the good and interesting work. ❤
Wow what a project to stabilize your walls and vertical foundation around your castle. I’m truly glad you’ve found a knowledgeable creator of foundation 🎉❤. Be well and safe and much love to all ❤️🥰👏🙏
You have been so lucky with contractors, Andy is amazing much like Nelson ! Britney mixing cement is a true MAN job, those shovels are heavy enough by themselves! Great progress things are starting to come together! 💋 💋 💋 Andy!
Andy is awesome and good looking too. ❤ Love you guys. You have such great help 🥰🥰♥️♥️🙏🙏
My favorite watching you two and Andy. Of course the supervisor doggie. Such a project. You sure found wonderful people. Tell Andy no more cigs we want him strong and healthy🥰
I always enjoy watching other people work 😎😎
Drew the Cat Lover. I love it!
That’s perfect! I remember when I borrowed my son’s pants one day lol. It was hilarious that they fit me😅
Could not stop laughing about the rerounding of the cement mixer opening!!😂
😂😂 This comment made us laugh about it all over again too!!
I did underestimate Mrs physical strength and endurance at the beginning of this project. I never doubted the creativity. The two together have made a fascinating adventure.
Drew is the padawan and Andy is the Jedi Master lol. Haben sir guten tag.
Good job everyone 😊 bet Andy sleeps well at night. Love the progress! Much love ❤️ 🤗😊
Nice concrete work!
Like playing a steel drum Drew - hammering out the squashed rim 😊
You are blessed to have an amazing group of talented contractors i.e. Andy, Nelson, etc. that are helping bring your vision to life. Your castle and land are really taking shape and I am really pleased that you are taking the steps to do things the "right" way with an eye to improving your property to last multiple lifetimes.
Wow, thank you for these kind and encouraging words 🫶 😘
Got a shampoo and a conditioner bar ordered - They last so long!!! I love your content so much!
Amazing! Happy to hear you like them. They are long-lasting and great quality. 💛
I love how much you’ve gotten finished! It’s amazing the changes you’ve made since purchasing the mill! It’s going to be so fantastic!
The first line of defense is that retaining wall with appropiate water drainage. Especially as you are repurposing the mill and its original waterflow patterns. Plus the natural slope and water runoff from the road and mountains. Added benefit is access around the side.
Yep!!!!!! Once the basic infrastructure is in the rest becomes easy..... Well I wouldn't say easy we haven't even got a roof or water yet ha
That isn’t a melon, but a pumpkin, in Spain, specially in the south you make the sweetest more gorgeous sweet product called “cabello de Angel” or Angel’s hair, it serves as the stuffing of so many desserts…you should try it. ☺
So exciting to see the progress now. I love it. Thanks for sharing your journey ❤
Good morning...... from my 3 kitties to yours from rainy Calif!!!!
😽😽😽
Andy is a force to be reckoned with. Amazing.
Love how you love the kitties! 😻
You mentioned having water in your IBC totes. Does Portugal have any regulations and having rain catches? That way, you could catch rain for gardens and projects. I'm in Arizona and have a couple. It's amazing to have that extra water off grid.
Really enjoyed this episode. My three kids (9, 7, 4) love to watch your channel with me. My 4-year-old son especially LOVED watching you make and pour cement! My girls LOVE watching everything about your land and the cats ❤
That is awesome! We LOVE that your family enjoys our content and show ❤️
Thank you Andy for explaining things.
I can’t believe they did all that by hand!!!
Any plans for adding a rainwater collection system off the roof of the container? Water storage expansion? Borehole?
Thank you for the tip about
diatomaceous earth. I did some research and am now mixing it into my kitties food too. Good information. 😻
Incredibly hard work 🩵💗🩵 so in awe of you all. Stay safe & well all. Loving your vlogs so inspiring xxxto the kitties & cuddles to gorgeous dog 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🥰
An amazing video with a lot of education and real-life adventure! Thank you for taking us along ♥️ See you next week!
Yes yes my favorite hour on Sundays !
I was noticing the thickness of the rind on the grapefruit and the lesser of the fruit inside.
This is Nature telling us what she tells the fruits to do for survival and what the fruits tell us, to those who pay attention.
This fruits rind saz, prepare , bundle up for protection from the elements thru the seasons and possibly for more than one / two years.
Well done, that was a lot of hard rugged work. Good working with such a likeable and knowledgeable guy.
Olá Drew, Britney... há pouco tempo disse aqui que iria-mos tomar um café ☕com vocês (brincadeira) dia 01/03... estaremos chegando✈ em Albufeira - Faro... para residir. Que bela obra vocês estão fazendo... parabéns pelo esforço! Abraços.
I can’t wait to see the mill or your home to be finished. It is going to be spectacular!! Great job guys!!❤❤
Thank you for sharing this lovely video and also for building tips!👍😊👍🙏❣️🙏
Its so good to see you building a solid and sturdy foundation to the wall, it made me worried when you started to dig all that suportive earth and rocks out of there.
This is going to be a perfect support for the wall with all the rebar and concrete it will last forewer.
Keep up the good work. 🙂
It's all coming together nicely. Many blessings.
Andy is amazing both men are very hard workers. It was good to see Brittany out of the camper doing some work it looked like she really enjoyed it.
It's nice to see Drew enjoying the cats! I think he's becoming a "cat person"!
😽
Labor of love 💕
Massive grapefruit but it was all skin and pulp. 👍😊🇺🇸🇦🇺
Hi love to see your work! That fruit is Gila, great to do jam, it's delicious!😊
Hard work!
SO many fun moments in this one! What's your fave?? 🥰Sending you our love, Britty + Drew
Favorite moments in this episode is when Andy gave a sexy kiss for the camera and when drew pet the cat.
Andy I want to meet him ❤🎉
Props to all the manual stone, concrete moving. Are you taking a running tally how much weight you guys have moved so far? I bet you'd be amazed how many tons you've moved by hand. Congrats on the progress.
Brittany in her construction outfit / snowsuit for a 10 year old boy!! 😂😂😂
Time for a monster grapefruit!
GOOD JOB LADY AND GENTLEMEN. LOOKING VERY GOOD
In Portugal we call that Abóbora-Gila. Normally used in sweets.
That's a lot of hard work, great job you three!
I Love the journey of the blessed life God has planned for you both. Thank you for sharing your journey and the people who join in making your job a lil less stressful. God bless you and your friends and family. I think it will take 57 bucks
With all this impressive cement work you are inspiring me here in Puerto Rico to attack my little project!!! Keep up the great work and the inspiration! 😅
Great teamwork
Wow that's a BIG job lots of concrete..
Wow on progress of your new home at Portugal
Hard workers.. great results!👍 love the pooch-you need a dog too-well it’d be fun don’t you think? 🐕 Things are really progressing so well -Happy Sunday!!
Great progress Drew and Brittany ❤
Great job you 3👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍👍👍🏠🏡☕️☕️☕️☕️❤️❤️
i adore andy!!!❤❤❤❤
I think the melon is what we call pie melon in Australia. We used to buy melon and lemon jam which was yummy.
Good wall reinforcement.
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, good work guys 👍😁💪👌👏👏👏.
So much hard work…but well worth it in the end.
Can't wait for the next episode!😁
i love watching the process of you guys i am also saving for my own portugese house greetings from the netherlands
Wow you guys work so hard, well done Brittany you were a great part of the team. Loved your outfit and bless boys size 10, you are such a petite and beautiful lady. Your hair looks really healthy with lovely curls. Andy you are amazing, so talented and knowledgeable and great at explaining what you are doing and why - love your dog too x
🥰 teamwork makes the dream work. That’s Andi’s dog Flashy. He’s so chill and a great dog.
You should use landscaping fabric and separating your gravel from the dirt. Without this the dirt/sediments will eventually travel through your gravel medium and into your French drain system. I would also recommend installing access points for easy clean out.
Does 1 + 1 = 2 get me that love note with a kiss from Andy?! 😊❤
Well that wall ain't going anywhere! Masterful Construction. Andy understands Detailing ensures Reinforcement and Concrete interact efficiently, Your Patio will Sparkle! 🎼👠🎃☕🍻🥂🍔🍟🌵☘
Great progress this week guys.. And I love me some grapefruit …that was huge… Take care!!!
Great video, would love to see more plans x
Awesome job you are doing guys.
Awesome to see so much progress.
Job well done - heavy work😊
Hello from Vermont, celebrating every step forward you make 🤩!
Thank you for making the sharing such a joy!! 🤗😘
I hope we get to see Andi sometime when all the construction is done
You both are such a sweet and caring couple
I can't wait to see the final results ❤❤❤😊
You're having all the fun.❤
It is really progressing. WOW. I don't know how to spell the kitty's name Mineu? She is so loving. Did the other two decide to move away? I hadn't seen them lately. They were really lovely cats too. Cats are magic and cats are cats. lol. I have 3 as well. I know you guys must feel so much better knowing it is steps forward in your being able to live in your home sooner. I am so happy for you both now that you have residency and health cards.
If you paint yogurt onto the new concrete when it has dried it will help moss etc to form on it and will speed up the weathering.
You all doing a great job Andy is worth his weight in gold for you both you will learn a lot about the building trade..
I love your channel I have been watching it for a long time.
That yogurt trick really works!? He has taught us a lot about working with concrete and blocks.
It’s fun to learn how, and why you are doing things. You are filling practical gaps in my education. Thank you.
Happy to be able to provide that 😄
Thank you guys! Great job!
Lot of hard work... nice job guys
Humungous grapefruit - I guess it taste and smelt as good😊
Great job guys! Great jumpsuit and workout Brittany! Loved that humongous grapefruit!!
Love from Mary in SoOC💗
Very intense exercise❤
Interesting thanks for sharing❤❤
love andy!
Next time make a ramp from the mixer to the pour are o you ctn tilt the mixer strict to the ramp own to fill are it quicker ND saves emergy.
