Violence is not JUST putting your hands on another or their stuff. Mental abuse is sometimes worse. They didnt JUST irritate him, they accused his of stealing.. They watched him, recorded at the least sounds. The effort they put into parking a vehicle w speakers at the line, calling the law on him. Comments to sway peoples opinion of him and his family then encourage them to move to the area... IS indeed violence.

My heart aches that you have to leave behind the amazing homestead you've worked so hard to build. I hate that you've had so much trouble with your neighbor, and that civilization has encroached upon your quiet, self-reliant life. That said, I do admire your courage and willingness to start over, just as I admire all the things you've done and strive to do. The area you're moving to is absolutely beautiful, and it seems to hold a certain magic that the other property didn't have. I know you--and all of your followers--will miss the old place, as it was "home" for all of us for the last three-and-a-half years, but starting over in this new place will be an exciting new adventure. And I have the greatest confidence you and your family will find the right caretakers to take up the legacy you are leaving behind. Sending you best wishes from Kansas. I hope you find the peace and solitude you desire and deserve. Have fun, be safe, and good luck!

Start from most recent and go back. Also check his Shawn James channel

I am SO sorry you had such a difficult time recently.... so sorry you have to move!! However, we are excited to watch you in your new adventure!! Blessings to you and your family!!!

[@celiacorner2626]

I am a 69 yr. Young cancer patient. I have watched your channel since you began this show. I love Cali. She keeps me smiling. Sorry you are going thru this. I will keep watching regardless

[@drdunbar2050]

This property looks a lot more varied in a positive sense. Cali looks more interested and the creek is fantastic!

[@scottbrooks288]

To those who would harass and try to hurt Shawn and his family... you are safe ONLY because he won't disclose your location or name. God bless Shawn, we love you!

As the Holiday Season draws nearer I wish you and yours, two and four legged a wonderful safe and fulfilled time together. Onward and upward Shawn. 👍🏼🇨🇦

[@lacarlotta6290]

Your channels mean so much to us; even though your goal is self reliance, I wish there was a way we could return the favor by helping or supporting you in some way during this move, or in dealing with dreadful neighbors.

[@lucianatrambaglio4881]

How nice of you! The move will be surely heavy. Cheers

[@sandyjuntunen4088]

We could send him visa cards he can use for gas or supplies. No return address he couldn't return them?

[@niyadapanpreecha1225]

(Forgive my language and my expression) It's gonna be the first year that you and your wife have Christmas together at the cabin since she decided to move here. I believe all your fan club over the world want you and your family to be happy, they love you no matter what you do, you deserved it. You are my inspiration over the past few years, I go out and enjoy my homeland nature, get some fresh air, and want to do lots of things that I couldn't imagine I can do it at age 67, Thanks.

[@johncourtneidge]

Beautiful, thank-you hurrah! First snows: the best time of the Canadian Year! And, as Paulette said, God doesn't send you what you want when you want it. He sends you what you need when you need it. Peace and blessings, all, your neighbours included. Love from England. Missing all.

[@sandrastacey2285]

Cali has moved up a gear. She is loving this new location. Brilliant photography as usual.

[@fredbasset3379]

I JUST LOVE CALLIE.. SHES AMAZING.. N LOVES D SNOW.. WATCHING HER I FEEL COLD... BRRRR!!! SHES SO AT HOME EVERYWHERE U GO... N SHE NEVER BARKS LIKE MOST POOCHES.. LOL..

Thanks for dropping the sound when your running the saw. Not everyone thinks about that

[@BlueberryGirl723]

It’s good to see you and Cali happy again. Cali is literally in bliss! Love this new location. Beautiful, peaceful views. This is going to be a good location for you and your family. Being flexible, you take what life gives you, and you make something better out of it every time.

[@MrJOHNPATCH]

Cali is a fun loving nut case. She's funny as heck. Full of life.

[@not2tees]

She makes you feel good about your own life and being alive, too!

Few good people left in this fairytale called Reality. You are one of them, my friend!

Don’t be fooled, there are many good people. Just the lost and confused are the loudest.

May the lessons learned from the last projects guide you and serve you well.

Amen 🙏 💖

[@Forestt24]

Shawn, you have the full support of me. Not only from me, I believe from the 2 million people who follow you on both KZbin channels. 💪 just want to say that you are certainly responsible for the return of many to nature and villages) from the cities. After all, I also have a wish for a small wooden house on the mountain 👍

[@tessk7950]

Cali makes my heart smile 💕

[@rosewheeler5997]

You made a good decision to relocate. Your new place is even more beautiful than the previous. I wish you all the best and look forward to watching your new adventures.

[@debbielucas7792]

Cali is as beautiful as ever and is a very happy dog. I'm happy to see all the water at this new piece of paradise. May God continue to bless you and your family.

[@melissam3438]

You've built a wonderful community here. I'm reading through these comments with tears in my eyes. Such wonderful sentiments to start this new chapter. We'll all be watching ... probably even more so now. Hugs and scritches to Cali! (BTW... I bought a sweatshirt to commemorate the old cabin. I'll be sure to wear it as I watch you and Cali build anew.) Wishing all good things for you and yours in this renewed adventure!

[@LeighDeitrick1]

Thank you so much for letting us tag along on your adventures.

[@mediatect]

Enjoying the journey: your work ethic, authenticity, integrity, boldness, craftsmanship, willingness to share, and more... there's so much incredible value in the learning here. Thanks for bringing us along and always making us feel welcome at the cabin. Btw, the shop is AWESOME! Would love to see you use that technique on the new cabin.

[@jmfu]

Forget the cabin, just make the Cali show! I live my life vicariously through your dog 🐶

[@lydiamclaughlin7100]

I heard that you had to start anew.....we are all rootin for ya!

[@janasapu1]

24:10 it breaks my heart to look at your log cabin without your sign, the kitchen and the sauna ... and you've added such melancholy music to it.

[@johnkeys7279]

God's helping a good man to start again .

[@rsinfelt1]

It would be nice if that "good man" would at least acknowledge God .....at least once for all the blessings He has bestowed Shawn.

[@johnkeys7279]

I think he might do that in is own way I hope so eneyway .

Maybe sold out made a mint, not a sad take !

Whenever I do something for the second time - it turns out ten times better. Experience is really the best teacher. This new place will be great because your last place was good.
