Thank you for letting me live vicariously through you

[@SteveeCee]

You put your finger on it there, all of Heath and Cedar's viewers are there burning brush😁

[@HelloHello-xh8lr]

I know! Same here! Such a beautiful family.

[@dandan8333]

It's nice to see your ranch growing as your dream continues to change. One of the best things about your sharing daily lifestyle of being there, is that many folks have come along to be together with you... something that they might not be able to do. We thank you all.

[@abba2me]

I loved seeing the new bed get set up. The bedroom looks so good! Some of my favorite videos were when you were building the house and kitchen, and Cedar was adding her touches to the new house. It’s a good balance to the outside projects.

[@aw3752]

New music! Nice! I love the jazz! A refreshing break from the twangy country western stuff. More sophisticated.

[@michaelkelly9971]

YOU THANK US FOR WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS. I AM ONE OF THOSE WHO HAVE WATCHED YOU FROM THE BEGINNING. I DO BECAUSE I ADMIRE YOUR SKILLS AND HOW YOUR FAMILY HAS GROWN. AS ONE OF THE PEOPLE FAR FROM YOU HERE IN A SUBURB OF BOSTON, I AM NEVERTHELESS INSPIRED BECAUSE YOUR FAMILY LIFE INSPIRES ME ABOUT THE NEXT GENERATION. THANK YOU ALL. BY THE WAY I AM 83 AND HAVE MANY GRANDKIDS ALL SET IN THE THEIR PROFESSIONAL LIVES. KEEP AT IT. GOOD LUCK.

[@darlenemc3586]

I love your pillows and the choice of colors on your new bed! ...so lovely, Cedar! 💖

[@ronaldgaska4480]

I love the new bed. Cool how you incorporated the Zip System. The true zip code. Enjoy cozy nights resting. Blessings beautiful family.

[@dennis2376]

That was funny when you said you would not be doing the painting. :) Thank you and have a wonderful week.

[@nena4215]

I totally understand what you’re saying about the trees and couldn’t agree more, it’s good for the land and makes for healthy, happy trees!

[@kendallricker9633]

Love the pops of color in the trees, really shows that fall is here. Nothing like a bon fire to relax in the evening. Just need chair and a rock to prop the feet up on. Always interesting to see what wildlife ambles into your yard. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next one.

[@terijohnson3110]

Love the new bed frame and the 2” blinds look great too guys! 🌻🍂💛

[@shsharrell9267]

Love the bed. Looks like the on I had as a kid. It had been painted several times, the paint had worn through to show the different colors. Only thing is, it was a full size (not a king). That bed was too short when I was 15. Love your bed frame, brings back memories.

[@margaretlynch1494]

🙋‍♀️❤The new bed looks lovely! And cozy!

[@sinclairpages]

This is the first time (I think) that I saw you without your hat on. Yes when you obtain new property it does have a lot of work getting the undergrowth cleared out. A lot people do not realize that clearing undergrowth is actually beneficial to the land and forest. You definitely need the extra large bed so the dogs will give you and Cedar a place to sleep in their bedroom. My wife and I have a 'Queen Size' bed and it is amazing how much space two Chihuahuas can take up in a bed.

[@jasonlightfoot4145]

That bed frame brings back a lot of memories, my mom too looked for a long time to find one just like that. She passed some years ago but I never forget that frame because it was me who set it up and took it down every time she moved.

[@truckinut20]

Heath your doing a great job out there...building a legacy for your family...psst you can never have too much firewood...just piles that are aging for future use ...love the look of your floor in the master bedroom 😉

[@chrischristenson4547]

in central Texas I have a mixture of Oak and pasture with some hickory. We are blessed with 2 ponds and fish to go with the cattle. You are right about burning the scrap part of the wood

[@jimgriffiths9071]

It's going from an impassable thicket to a sunny savanna. Your vision is right on. Those around you will come to appreciate the beauty of what you're doing. Good job!

[@tinag8467]

It’s beautiful! Love the style. If I may offer a suggestion? Drill holes in the zip panel to allow air to circulate through the mattress. So much hard work by both of you, we really enjoy watching the videos and appreciate y’all sharing your life and journey with us.

[@oberfeldwedler9999]

at least rotate the mattress from time to time... I also sleep on a piece of OSB but I'm probably a fair bit younger than you...

[@rickmaudlin2160]

Thanks for sharing your real world lives with us. I was just thinking today about my house "How did these walls get so dinged up?... I just painted them". Then my wife reminds me it's been 15 years!

[@mobayguy]

Hey Heath - Sure bet Cedar was glad to see the racoon riding "shotgun" - Thanks for having us over again. Take care

[@davesweany8650]

That bedroom floor looks Amazing 👍👍👍

[@geraldpate5980]

Heath, I hope you give us plenty of drone footage when the leaves turn. Red poppy really looks good!

[@MOUNTAINEAGLES]

You have done an incredible job. You have given life to those lands. I have looked at your channel since you started it and to this day you have done an excellent work Congratulations.

[@pauln7422]

i love that "I think we're out of the woods, as far as the trees are concerned" made me chuckle.

[@rayknightstep9083]

Greeting from Vegas! Hopefully with your new bed frame, you can now rest as hard as you work.😀

[@josephbrown-ut9ty]

JudithB Rebuilding the burn pile as I work around the place, but we are under a burn ban. It will be awhile before we get rain apparently, but plenty of projects to work on. If I would focus on one project, I could get something finished!! LOL!! Meanwhile I am working on two main projects which of course hinge on something else that needs done. And tomorrow we go cut more firewood, and I havent moved the split stuff to the stack yet. Remember you are as young as you are going to be right now. At 73, I am as young as I am going to be right now, so got to keep on going!!!! The alternative is not good!!!

[@JoeSoslick]

It would be awesome to see what a forestry mulcher could do on your land! Love the videos, keep it up, thanks!

[@st3v3408]

Love that Old Ford Tractor. The land is really taking shape, it looks fantastic.

[@lockedin60]

Heath, You all get the snow and the cold we here on the east coast get the wind and the rain. Tropical Storm Ian formerly Hurricane Ian settles in Sept 30 at 0200 hours and over the next 26 hours we have a wind and rain event. I am fortunate that I live in a townhouse on a concrete pad and there are no trees anywhere close to me. I suspect our shrubs will take a beating but I will just hunkering down. Our powerlines are underground but we are still at the mercy of the substation and the power grid downtown Apex.

[@jamesdickman8315]

With a good sized chipper you can make water retaining soil additive for the garden and enrich the soil on the hill. P.S. I have a son your age and I cut trees for fire wood still, you have plenty of time to get alot more than you can imagine done.

[@dustoff1472]

Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.

[@amma3536]

Love the bed!!! Take care and be blessed.

[@basshunter4144]

Wow! that bed looks like the one my three brothers and myself slept in when I was a kid. we didn't have a lot but we where always warm on cold nights. I love your channel what you see is what you get nothing fancy just true honest heartfelt living. working your tail off to have something. Thank you for allowing me to tagging along on this awesome journey . God bless be safe stay well until next time.

[@regina15ful99]

Beautiful new bed frame. Enjoy your life as much as possible.

[@richardthomas1743]

Hello Red Poppy and thumbs up to everybody!

[@buddybaumann528]

It means nothing but in my opinion l think you're doing the right thing on the property. I think also you got a beautiful bed frame there. When you look back you accomplished a hole lot in a short many years. All I can say is don't get burned out if ret wants to help let him.lts a lurning experience an remember the memories you have about your younger days. I still have loving memories of working with my dad.

[@susiestokely3528]

I am impressed that Cedar would let you help her make the bed…..that’s one task my husband and I try not to share b/c he thinks I am too fussy and I think he has poor bed making skills 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@dorothyallen3614]

Looks great Heath, Cedar I love your bed frame and choice of bedding!❤

[@williamsnow1531]

I don’t blame you Heath for not panting. Out of all the renovations I do, painting is the least likely job I hate.

[@jimgriffiths9071]

That is a beautiful floor in the master. Would love to see more trim and wainscot details to enhance the ranch feel.

[@janerusher3214]

"I think we're out of the woods as far as the trees are concerned".... Lol. That was pretty funny. Unintentionally. Nice work Heath! That's why we keep you around.

[@zeds.6783]

Racoons are so intelligent that they're hard to deal with any way short of k!ll!ng them, as much as that saddens some people. The new land is going to look amazing once the ground recovers from the work and the plants start popping up. The new bed looks great with the flooring, although the old bed frame looked nice too. Altogether, y'all appear to have had a productive and wonderful week or so, from where this old man sits. Thanks for sharing, and God bless y'all.

[@rayyoung7780]

Love the new bed. No need to explain about the trees. If you get any flap it will be from a bunch of city slickers like me who never cleared any land of their own. Ignore us. 😇

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

I love the music you play on your videos, first and second, I really love the king size antique glad you found❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ as well as a beautiful hardwood floors in your bedroom)

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

Continued page 2: it was very hard to find king size anything and furniture because men were not of that stature before the 19th century. Napoleon himself he was a very famous ruler of the Roman army, self-appointed, was only a little over 5 feet tall. He was known to wear lifts in his boots, have ramps built for him to walk up on whenever he needed to speak, so that he appeared to be taller than he actually was. In fact there were many famous western Actors it did the same thing. Women in the earlier centuries had ways that were 14 to 16 inches in size yes and they were just a tiny her bone structure than women of today and they were also shorter. That is how they were able to wear those Tiny Corsets that some women are copying nowadays and some women are laughing at nowadays.!! Often, families gave one another a goose down-field mattress as a wedding gift and it would’ve been impossible to have made a king size mattress back then Who is the matching pillowcases in king size also!! It was just too large and houses/cabins were not built that big either. Many people only had a one bedroom cabin and a king size bed would not have fit… But rather they were full size mattress for couples building a one room bedroom cabin.♥️♥️💕

[@rudyfisher7660]

The phone blocks and I was talking about are called ICS housing you know blocks for putting concrete in the point on 2 that means it gives a double insulation 3" or 2" on each side of the concrete

Love the old bed frame...don't know if y'alls is like the ones I have had but they tend to be a little noisy when you move around or get up or down some people don't mind but others in the house would know when you get up so you can't surprise them they also know what else goes on in your bed...lol

Raccoons are drawn to food left out for the cats & dogs. We had two come inside the house through the doggie door. They were very fat so they’d probably been eating there awhile. They were really hostile when asked to leave🤣

[@justn.american6362]

Long time follower, love your straight forward approach to life. thanks for sharing. I just bought 100 acres which has been 35 years abandoned. living now on a family 95 acre farm after moving around the country for years. A grapple for my tractor/skidsteer has become my number one implement. I would live without all the others before i gave up this useful tool. I'm sure you've already considered all your options, just letting you hear somebody that is clearing the land like you and it is indispensable to me. I'm also looking for a companion dog. any ideas. Oh, we do have cougar, bob cats and who knows what else on our land. I hope my place looks as good as yours some day.

[@paulwilliams200]

Raccoons are extremely cute-looking - but are vermin which are both deadly and destructive around both livestock and vegetable gardens AND also property/buildings. They need to be either (preferably) relocated or eradicated on any homestead/farm/city backyard.

[@stovepipe6769]

Relocated would be a better option or don't show animals you just killed.

deadly and destructive, but what about man.

How nice to see something new added to your home and not have our noses rubbed in it! Cool addition BTY.

[@32dras]

I know it's not prettiest sight when it's close by your house but here where I live(Croatia, Europe) Public forests menegment company don't allow burning wood leftovers, usually they cut down and thining forests, taking out technical wood-logs, then they sell(usually on discount prices) thicker canopy wood to people make themselves fire wood, then companies making pellets take thiner branches and what is left they demand to bi piled in small piles to decompose and get back into soil and to fertilize soil for new tree seedlings they go trough forest and plant after all work is done it that part of forest.

Depending on the Ph of your garden soil, you can use those ashes to improve the soil.

[@claireburkus8497]

Love your new bed!!! I have one similar in my guest room!! Amazed at all your energy!!👵🏼

[@larryparish5984]

You could always stack the firewood logs where they're at & deal with them next year. Just buck up what you'll need for this year & next. What you leave stacked will be seasoning while it sits over the winter. Don't want to thin it out to much, remember, A Happy Wife Makes a Happy Life 🤣. Have a great night 😊.

[@newlyenlightened8775]

Cedar, I have the same bedframe in white and love it. There's nothing like being in the past.

[@RiggerBrew]

Have a similar problem with trees in Colorado, except they are aspens.... They grow so fast and thick.... County won't let us do slash piles until winter and have to have a min of 3 inches of snow on the ground... Also, have to keep an eye out for pine trees that have been killed off due to Beatles....

[@CindyofTheShire]

Love the bed. Getting a modern but old looking is better than antique anyway. I grew up with the old kind and they would shimmy and wobble and mattresses never fit right.

[@shephusted2714]

you can rotate paddocks and they will do fine but you want lite grazing pressure on the new fields - consider some cover crops - you want to plant some trees also and focus on roi

Serious question for you have you considered reaching out to the KZbin heavy machinery community think somebody like diesel Creek but closer to you maybe somebody has a nice big dozer they can come out with and push that low spot further back into the second property for you?

[@johnhunt7069]

Rather than burning waste timber, would it not be a better option to use a chipper to produce chips for compost or spreading to improve the soil which is probably quite poor. Keep up the good work both of you.

It’s a shame you don’t have a loader with a root grapple on that little tractor! I have 94 acres of which approximately 60 are woods and steep side hill! I love the grapple for brush cleanup and holding fire wood. It’s all part of getting older figuring out ways to save the ole body. Great videos keep them coming.

I pick thru and scroung every scrape of firewood I can. Cost less since I have to buy some firewood.

[@MikeHarrison3266]

It keeps coming to my mind that I personally could never be in the position to comment negatively on what you do with your land, I do not live in your situation, I think you have to do what you feel is the best thing for you. One of the reasons I would live your life if I could would be to be able to do as I wish and not have others tell me how wrong they think I am, I simply do not have to care about their opinion. I can listen to my family and my heart and that would be enough unless I ask for the help of others. Seeing you helping to make the bed up, now that was a sight.

There just isn't enough time in the day Heath for that matter the week when the weather is changing and the projects will not wait till its a good time and clearing land has been going on for a few thousand years now we have fields to plant and shelters to build but sometimes the forest needs a new lease on life as the trees that are healthy can stay healthy longer due to the thinning out you have to be a shepherd of the land and preserve what you have for the next generations to enjoy and use to support their way of life when you respect the land and earth it can protect and nourish you when you destroy and abuse it the earth will swallow you up and you clearly care what you do and how you do it Heath both you and Cedar care about not just now but its future prosperity God love ♥ ya both

I was always told that the board under the mattress should be perforated or should be of a lattice type to allow the mattress to breath, to get rid of all the moisture that builds up in it when you sleep on it.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

I had an actual antique bedframe like yours that I rescued from the trash. One of the rails was split. I pounded it back to almost perfect and painted it flat black. I loved it. But when we moved I knew it wouldn't fit in our new home so I left it behind. I think my nephew took it.
