  • Greetings from ALASKA! Tanya and I just finished a hard day's work on the cabin. We started out with the goal of getting the ceiling re-insulated before nightfall but we ran out of both energy and daylight before we got that far. Even so, we're happy with the progress we made. Tomorrow is another day and we have some coffee we need to drink.
    We are going to make a quick trip to Texas this week to visit family, but we will be back within a few days and continue our work on the cabin.
    We love and appreciate all of you very much. Peace from Alaska

    When he brought her shoes I melted. Reminded me of when I was sick my dad would bring me my shoes. He passed away 8 years ago. I miss my dad so very much.
    What sweat man. His wife is equally as sweet because she supports him.

    From one UA-camr to another, I totally appreciate how the filming and editing process doubles the amount of work you do. I am so grateful that you continue with the difficult work of filming so that we can look forward each week to watching your wonderful videos. When I watch you I feel like I am there with you which is probably why I love watching so much. Now that your lovely wife has joined you in the videos they are even better. What a breath of fresh air she is with her cheerful demeanour. Hugs from England❤

I continue to greatly enjoy your unique approach to making videos and love that even though there is much more dialogue, you don't talk at us, rather you continue to bring us along on your journey.

You two have quickly gotten into my favorite programming of the week - I'm enjoying seeing your antics as you build. Sending positive thoughts for happiness and good health as you continue your project. PS That whole episode with the wood in the wood stove was the best comedy I've seen all day!

    I love the fact that you invite us in for you morning chats. Coffee mugs, we all have too many and our favorites. So long as the handle does not get hot in the microwave, it passes. I hope you enjoyed your time with your son here in Texas. If I recall it was a decent weekend weather-wise. I am surprised to see so much snow in early April. Swinging a mallet or hammer for an extended period can sure drain the upper body. Love the editing and the unstoppable laughter. God Bless, and Happy Easter. Pete

      Pete, a good coffee mug is a happy thing! We had a nice time in Texas and the weather was pretty perfect- not too hot, not too cold and not raining. We got outdoors a bit and enjoyed being with our son and his fiancé. It’s pretty typical for us to have snow here all through April and here in the mountains it’s the most popular time to ride snow-machine. Thanks for being here and laughing along with us. Wishing you and your family a blessed Easter. Take care, friend.

      Hello Richard. Yes, that is true. We will be doubling the insulation in the floor, walls and roof. It will heat with a kitchen match. We are getting ready to tackle the old woodshop and get it in order too. Talk to you soon.

    Hello, Tanya and Gala, to the greatest holiday for us Christians, which is the holiday of the resurrection. The pre-Christmas period of Easter is characterized by many activities in our country, and only today is the holiday fun. Thank you for the last video of the robot, you are going full steam and the effects are already visible. I can already imagine what you are going to do next. We are waiting for more videos of course after your return from Texas, we wish you good luck and a lot of impressions.
    God be healthy with you.

      Good morning Norbert and Eva. Greetings to you both. We would love to hear more about the Easter traditions in your country. This is an important time for us here too. We made a quick trip to Texas and returned much refreshed after visiting with our son whom we haven't seen in over two years. It was great to be able to have some long conversations with him over dinner again. We have missed him so much. Thank you for your friendship. Peace

Being here and working with her is such a great privilege. I will always cherish it. If you ever make it back to Alaska we would love to share some coffee with you here by the lake. Peace.

    I've been watching you-all for over two years, I believe. You provide me, Leslie Ann, and Fred - husband - with many hours of knowledge, information and enjoyment. BUT, . . . we watch you on "the BIG screen" and so rarely see the comments. Today, I decided I would watch on my computer . . . a whole new experience! I particularly enjoyed the episode of Gale laying flat on his back with his nose up against the new ridge beam, pulling out the old rafters. Better than watching Sean Connery as 007!!!
    Because I/we have not watched on the computer, we thought your names were Bill and Tammy!! Close, but no cigar!! Hahahah! As always, BIG screen or small, Stella is a joy to behold!! And, I am especially LOVING Tanya's hair cut. It so suits you, Tanya . . . and takes away years from your age.
    We'll keep watching and loving your journey, especially since we're in Sarasota, Florida and NOT in the frigid temps of Alaska!! My irises are blooming and the Monarch butterflies are out and about, laying eggs on my dozens of Milk Weed plants! Soon we'll have Monarch caterpillars and cocoons. The wondrous cycle of Life! Have a GREAT day, unless you have other plans!!
    Regards, Leslie Ann & Fred

    • @ThisIsMyAlaska
      @ThisIsMyAlaska  2 роки тому +1

      Leslie Ann & Fred, Gale is flattered by the 007 comparison and I thank you for the kind compliment about my hair!! I think you must be a kindred spirit with your lovely description of irises, butterflies and caterpillars. I was immediately and wonderfully transported to somewhere green, blooming and alive! Thank you so much for watching and for taking a moment to craft such a lovely comment. Enjoy your snowless spring in Florida and think of us occasionally. ❤️ Peace & blessing to you. ~Tanya ( &Gale too 😊)

    as well as the place you show us, the beautiful and enormous Alaska,
    a place that I would love to visit for everything it offers, I am in love with the entire northern part of the Earth for the winter weather it offers. All the videos are instructive, but in this last one I laughed a lot when I saw Tanya laugh with the "incident" of the wood that did not fit in the fireplace. Funny and funny moment, I hope the finger burn was little...
    A big hug for both of you and for Stella from Barcelona.
