You made some decent progress, work always gets in the way of that stuff. But Necessary evil i supose. Ground clearing looks good.. cool you got a cow.. Definitely show us an update when you get the critters covered..

There ya go, out and about.. 27 degrees, and snowy peaks.. nope you can keep it.. 🤣🤣 the nest was cool, that switch track is a Derailer. The big D on the throw indicates it's set to derail. Keeps anything from getting out on the main line and causing bigger problems. Good stuff Lee..

Thats awesome. Pulling freight with a caboose.

Nice catch, 3 mid DPUs and one on the end awesome.. you just passing thru.. you need to post more offten.. like from Nevada.. 🤣🤣 we need to see your trains out there..

My son standing in the doorway at 7:30.

The helper is not giving power most of the time its just there in case water runs low as there are no more water towers on the lines she must be filled by fire truck type lines instead and a low water condition would be very bad. hyce has a wonderful vid on it please watch.

2 amazing engines so much power

Nice shot of the tunnel, cool to the UP police let ya get closer. Thanks for chasing it there.. good video..

Very nice, the lake was awesome. But so glad you got to catch it.. shes a beauty. The mixed freight behind it was nice too. Usually pulling coaches.. funny seeing that tiny caboose after the large locos and frieght.. great video Lee.. appreciate you sharing it..

To clarify: at 9:52, the things hanging over the tracks. I guess that they aren't so big?

What are those big balls in the sky at 5:55?

I'm thoroughly impressed-great job!

Possibly another piece of railroad history meeting its demise.. hope some one preserves it.. would make a great RR museum.. great share Lee.

Im going to be in deshler on July 6th

Dude, 6 months... where ya been, ...great tour of fat tire.. perfect stop for ya.. hope to see more stops along the way.. safe trip...

Are the guys of danners towing and other companies alright with railfans on their property ( so that I know my railfanning limits in upper sandusky

Thanks for sharing Lee, that looked like a great evening out with the family.. train was decorated really nice, and snow ball fight looked fun.. . merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

Definitely gonna be a nice winter project. Crazy you had to wait that long.

Got the little piggies, you gonna eat good.. closing in the solar was a good idea for a shed and bike is now outta the winter weather. Everything is coming along great.. cats name is lucifer 🤣 great update..

👍🤠👍

Curious, how you gonna winter the pigs, cats cute, got you a mouser.. bike shed is cool..

Head um up, move um out, raw hide!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Did you get your land for minimal down or free since its a homestead?

Congrats to your Daughter for getting married. And each little glitch in the system is a learning experience.. You'll get it down pat soon enough. Fire place looks good, gonna roast you out 🤣🤣 but that's a good thing, will save your batteries...

Awesome, congrats on moving in.. cool you got your septic in and working.. now your ready to gooooo...

Oh yeah, we have power, Its Alive!!!!. Thats awesome. Water and power, now sewer and your definitely all set.. its coming aling nicely...

Looks amazing!!

Glad you got your solar wiring sorted out.. sounds goid to me, just throws ya a bit when you think of city wire coming in. Every one seems to get that one neighbor. That's crazy.. and figure you should get your chickens first.. that way they can eat the bugs, and you can have some eggs. 😂 fridge is a cool addition...

Oh yeah, definitely Greek to me as well, it all sounds good but definitely double check with the customer service.. but sure does look good. The mini split if you call someone they can shorten those lines as well. And you'll be a bit more efficient. It's all turning out great,

Thats pretty cool..

👍

Dang man, cant escape neighbors no matter where you go.. not fond of the new ones i got.. 😮 but cool you got the well hooked up.. sounds like its 115 to me.. great update with the wood stove too...

Yeah the helping hands always get distracted way to easy.. 🤣 but good just spending time with them.. the panel aray looks good. Now thsts definitely some progress.. dont see why you can't use thst for the floors. Will definitely look good..

Are you going to be off grid power only?

Yeah no need to get to hot burying lines when your still waiting on the contractors.

What size forestner bit works best ???

Looking Awesome!

Probably no biggie, you could do a disconnect right befor the box when you wire in the main from the solar. And getter that ditch dine is a major hurdle out if the way. Your getting closer each day...

That stove corner turned out great.. hope it's not to rocky for your neighbor to dig.. be cool when you get your solar all put up...

Dang those turned out weathered really good. That acid mist had me wondering about you getting burned.. 😮 This year I'm heading north to check off the new England states, but definitely want to get back out your way. Get some desert trains..

Shoot, looks like got a lot more done than you think.. its looking real good. The 8ft deck looks plenty enough.. rest up..

Wooo Hooo, looking good, like the ceiling. The mini split is a great idea, was wondering what you were gonna do for HVAC.. coming along nicely. HAPPY 4TH

Yup, your knocking it out.. looking good, be cool when you get the solar in, sucks about your seat.

Yup, looking good as F.... you sucking in to much dust, becarefull, get you a mask..

Dude you are smoking thru this. Looking great, where did you say you got your log for the corner.

👍 🤠👍

Wow, sounds like you got it all worked out, that's good. The storage idea. Definitely a good one. Never enough storage.. how big did you go on the solar system..

love it! look forward to the updates

Probably already framed by the time I seen this.. but just a suggestion. Get rid of the bath tub, put in a stand up shower put your washer dryer combo between the stand up shower and the wall, and that will keep it out if the kitchen. But that is just a suggestion. But your defiantly moving along pretty quick

Yes, the cross braces are structure support, helps keep the roof from kicking out against the walls, but it can be modified 🤠
