[@HollyRose1529]

Like a kid in a candy store! I know you had fun that day! Great job.

[@Bernie5172]

YOU DID JUST FINE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A DOZER

[@canuckyank82]

Happy Birthday Cedar❣️ May this be your best year ever!

[@virginialewis9854]

Happiest of Birthdays to you, Cedar!!!!!

[@cindybull3064]

Oh Wow! What a difference. After watching you work so very hard.....this was an answer to a prayer. Look what was accomplished! It is so Beautiful! I am so Happy for your family.

[@RedPoppyRanch]

Thank you!

[@poetry-n-motion5563]

@@@RedPoppyRanch: How much did it cost to rent that bull dozer ?

[@graphite737]

I know the feeling! Did a property from raw land, just loved looking out the camper windows thinking of the day we would have our home and thinking of where we wanted everything set and facing.

[@BrooklyngirlLovesCrochet]

Yaayyy! I must admit I'm a tad jealous! But it's good kind of jealous because it just makes me wish I was closer to where you are at. I am still in the dreaming & saving stage, but I am learning new skills. God bless you guys! Looking forward to seeing your progress! You inspire me to keep going! Blessings!!

[@lilbird1962]

I am so happy for your wonderful family!

[@robyn2671]

Love from rathdrum Idaho!! The love and devotion to your wife and kids is a joy to see🙏 with a similar story I hope some day my husband and I can have land as well. Keep up the good work!!

[@RedPoppyRanch]

Thank you Robyn!

[@richardjimenez7394]

Wow that’s awesome job . Great 👍🏼 job clearing out that area.

[@jassfosterful]

Very Inspiring! At least you know where you can build since you found water!

[@annamaybeekman5152]

It looks so wonderful

[@cheriettejackson4248]

Progress! Amazing what opening up the view does! I'm sure that day of work with the dozer will reduce your cost for the pros. You accomplished a lot!

[@littlehummingbird1015]

That was a lot of fun to see! Congratulations on your progress!

[@lexmark6464]

You need the front of the house facing sunrise and the back facing sundown. This will help during the winter to warm the home. Nice deck out the front to relax in the afternoon shade of the home.

[@littlehummingbird1015]

Exactly...no porch on the west side... that equals hot hot hot....and too bright for the eyes. I lived in a house like that and I could not enjoy the evenings til the sun went down...when it was in the middle of summer.

[@marcopolo5365]

U made a wonderful mess for some one to clean up!!!

[@harley96cube]

Link for this video came up at the end of one of your Sept. 2019 vids. Neat to come watch back near the beginning.

[@sf98]

Cant wait to see the progress.

[@RedPoppyRanch]

Me too!

[@littlehummingbird1015]

Me three! LOL

The gentleman has a dream for himself and his family. based on reality.

[@Wiredogrepair1]

That is the way to move some dirt. I need to do that on our big property in Wennimmucca Nv, but the property we will be living on in Yerington Nv is mostly flat. You got a good days of work in, it is looking great.

[@RedPoppyRanch]

Thank you!

[@floydferguson5366]

[@vlogmylifetobyrobinson9050]

[@RedPoppyRanch]

[@eddievest4096]

That’s some good dirt

[@harrytaylor6854]

enjoyed

[@MadsWorld34]

I know what its like to lose trees you wanted to keep. I once had over 200 dogwood trees on my land and it was even on a couple calendars back in the 80's then for some reason in the late 90's every tree no matter what it was died under 6 inch's. for about 5 miles around mine. never did find out why. I transplanted a few but they never took. so I know how you feel.

[@rodfair5698]

You had so many decisions to make. That must have been extremely difficult at times, as basically, most of them you made you would be stuck with forever!! Doubt I could have done it, especially with the amount of thought you put into it!!

[@marciapattison4049]

I cried with you

[@oliverharding9761]

If I was that doing that job the biggest problem that I would have is trying to keep my wife and granddaughter away from the bulldozer as anything that can dig or move soil they have to be driving it.

[@OffgridwithJayandJen]

I am not a builder, I know nothing about building But wonder if there would have been any benefit to or if you considered ever building on stilts? It seems I see lots of cabins or homes that are worked into hill sides being built that way in more remote areas. NOT at all questioning what you did, just curious if you did any consideration of this, pros/cons/costs, erosion issues and such.

[@RedPoppyRanch]

I've thought about it but I felt that using the hill to insulate my house would be smart

[@fjjbikerider]

she didn't believe you here but she gave the benefit of the doubt

[@dorascott8286]

Good days work...

[@That1ufo]

The day google Earth flew over taking photos.

[@OneMorePutt]

and it still hasn't updated 4 years later.

[@jeffery19677]

Anybody near you have a small or a portable sawmill? They might be interested in using the maple.. Maybe give you 25% back in lumber? Might make beautiful trimwork for the new house...

[@RedPoppyRanch]

I'm in the process of building a sawmill. I hope to be able to mill it or barter with it if nothing else.

[@socks1949]

No put your shop as far away from your house as possible. You want your house to be the jewel of your land.

[@access2iteb]

Besides That, A Guy Needs A Shop That Is Far Enough Away For Peace And Mind !, Shops Can Get Noisy !!! Ect., It's A Guy Thing !!!..... PS: I Love ! What You're Doing For You And Your Family's Future Growth !!!

[@bogdankarpovich7695]

You can learn more about it on InpliX website.

[@karelvanleer429]

All those trees down and ur not saving the wood now wasteful r u bringing seems like a waste of good firewood or lumber fence railing

[@Bushguyrocks]

Ugg. Kill the music. Unwatchable.
