    One of our Fallow deer opened our yard hydrant and drained our water tanks. Digging out of a three day blizzard. Bumpside diesel core support.

    The snow that you get where you live I lived through that back in the 40's and 50's as a young lad in Southern Ontario Canada.
    It was waking up in the morning to see how deep the snow came down over night so I know what you are seeing and bless you for taking it as it comes.

    Those yard hydrants are about the same size as the trees whitetail deer use to “spar” with during the rut. Not sure about axis deer, but I bet you they may get more rough next year during the peak of rut.
    If I were you…I’d drop a 10’ post in the ground with the height of the hydrant above grade and strap that thing down.
    Been watching for 6 years now. Never miss an episode.

    Over here in Emmett, we only got about 8-10 inches of dry powdery snow from the last couple storms....not all that bad, but they closed schools for 2 days because the road crews weren't doing their job.
    We've had a few snow showers off and on but nothing really that bad, and a couple weeks of cold temps down in the teens and single digits mainly from the arctic air blast that hit us on top of the inversion we already had.
    Its around 42 degrees this afternoon, quickly melting the snow...and looks like it isn't going to get too cold the next week or so, then drop back into the 20's again, but probably not much in the way of snow.
    Since I'm the only one at the house now, the furnace is getting a work out throughout the week with nobody here to keep the wood stove going through the day. Going to hate the propane bill.

    The obvious thing about weather Heath is that it’s always changing either for better or worse. As it is still January and the forecast says it’s going to get unseasonably warmer doesn’t mean it’s going to last till spring either. One day about ten or fifteen years ago the local weather department said that the airport was reporting partly sunny skies but where we lived I had about six to seven inches of partly sunny white stuff on my back patio. The truck will be a welcome addition to your vehicle collection too if you don’t loose track of your goal. Nice to see the kids come over to Mom and Dad’s to see what’s in the pantry and it won’t be long till it’s the grandkids helping themselves to. So far this year we’ve only received about two maybe three inches of snow and that’s to much for this old man anymore. Be careful and stay safe my friend God love ❤️ both Cedar and you.

    First of all, thanks so much for your channel. Ive enjoyed it for several years. Something you said in today's episode made me wonder something. You stated that you liked to resolve problems while the wife and family are still sleeping. I used to agree with that but now that I'm in my later years (I'm 68) I find that when something comes up that might arise again sometime down the road, I like to bring my wife into the equation so she'll know how to handle situations when Im no longer on this earth (she is a decade younger than I am). With your situation where you are so independent, does this ever cross your mind? Or maybe Im just not following your actions well enough... Again, thanks for the great channel. Wish I was 20 yrs younger so I could experience lots of what Im learning on you tube!

    I'm a bit concerned you still could lose water if the deer happen to pop that handle up on the hydrant any bit at all. My dad replaced all the outside water spiggets with these kind of hydrant on our farm many years ago. A unique feature about these is when you shut them off, water drains back in the hydrant thru a hole at the bottom by the supply pipe so it won't freeze. I was always told not to leave the handle up at all even if water isn't coming out because if you do, water could just pour out through the drain hole at the bottom.
