BACKWOODS CABIN SERIES. Updates To The Interior Of My Cabin Off The Grid.

[@Woopwoopwill]

Words just can't explain the encouragement and feelings I have when enjoying a video you have made for our enjoyment and education. Thank you JC!!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate that.

[@betsybk11]

my favorite cabin living channel...yes sir

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Very happy to hear that Betsy. Thank you for saying so :-)

[@jondrew8502]

That cabin of yours is truly a great little place with beautiful woodwork with great low tech and practical items such as the ice box and composting toilet. You're a pretty talented guy and have inspired me to try my hand at quite a few things since watching your very informative and entertaining videos. Thanks again and keep up the good work. Jon

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Glad you find my videos to be inspirational and entertaining. Best of luck with your new endeavors.

[@sigma_polymath]

Cabin looks great, road does also, hauling stone or gravel is no small chore I have done it, wonderful gift he gave you, your a Blessed man JC... God BlessYou

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. Blessings to you as well.

[@thesouth80roost18]

I just keep coming back and watching these older videos of yours. I really enjoy watching them and watching your project updates. You craftsmanship, style, and attention to the details are amazing. Keep up the great work very inspirational stuff.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

+Thesouth80roost Thank you my friend.

[@janied8831]

True that!! Amen🙏🙏🙏

[@pammiedoodle8693]

Boy, that road will make all the difference, eh? I love every aspect of the cabin. My husband and I built our log home 18 yrs ago and we love it! Funny thing though, the older I get, the more of a desire I have to scale down and be off grid. It seems most people want things easier as they age and I seem to be going the other way! Your cabin is amazing and I always look forward to your vids. God Bless!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I'm the same way and the wheels are in motion to simplify. I'm putting my homestead on the market this week and can't wait to live life between my 2 cabins. I still have a long ways to go with the road. I'm barely 1/3rd of the way with the stone but I'll get there. All the best to you Pammie. God Bless.

[@homeandsimplelife2016]

Boss, I've gotta say with the details and comforts you've included and described in your cabin it is no doubt with an artistic eye. I wouldn't have expected anything less. You've got yourself a million dollar cabin. Champagne Wishes And Caviar Dreams to you

[@CataclysmicStar]

Everything you do looks to turn out beautifully. No doubt a result of good planning, careful execution, and old fashioned common sense. :) Love watching everything you've done with your land and cabin.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

CataclysmicStar Thank you kindly. The planning part comes during the night. That's why I don't sleep.

[@goldenlotussanghallcaquapo4038]

You're simply awesome! Brings back memories of my grandfather, who was a carpenter/builder and his beautiful work ethic.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend :-)

[@backcountrypipe]

Wow, that is very kind of you. Thank you very much I am honoured for the invite. You never know. Regards

[@Jachro-kw8wt]

The cabin is just amazing! From a woodworker, the level of craftsmanship you've put into it is awsome ! Just simply a great job. I hope you do a video on the solar install, I would like to see how to do it.I know it's hunting season now but do you think you will do any more fishing videos? I've been watching your channel for a while now, (ever since I seen Frankie bring you a beer!) and I have to say that from the content to the quality, your channel is one of the best on you tube. Keep them coming! And once again, great job on the cabin!

[@PrepItForward]

The place looks great JC. You really have done a great job. It's so obvious to see the level of care and pride that went into each detail. In my humble opinion those are the qualities that are missing in many of today's families. Everyone's so damn busy to truly appreciate the details in life that the really good stuff gets missed. Great job brother and thank you for sharing.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

One thing I always say is... "I'm not going to rush into something I don't want" The older I get, the more I stick to that. Thanks for commenting.

[@billywray4524]

u have everything u need…good for u…best of times

[@joesneon]

Thank you for all the kind words my friend!!!!!! I cant wait to come back in the winter, and damn straight we are goin in on snowshoes!!!!!! Everything is looking great,you are a very talented man yourself !!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Looking forward to seeing some PBR's in the icebox :-))))

[@seaotter1975]

Your work is just amazing! I love the care you took to the trim work and the handles. I'm very impressed with your fridge! That is pretty awesome! Very lovely cabin! Thank you for taking the time to show us your updates! :)

[@woodchuckhillsny3900]

I must say your a man of many talents. Men like you who appreciate the simple life and always improve your necessities and increase the everyday comforts through hard work are of the past. Its so much more rewarding to approach life that way. Most of the youth just don't get it. I too enjoy the soothing, nostalgic way you tell your stories. Looking forward to more.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I couldn't agree more with all you just wrote.

[@anthonybaker5532]

Another great video Boss. Always love seeing your videos. You and Frankie are a great pair of friends and always waiting for your next video to come out. The cabin is coming along nicely I love the Brick behind the furnace. And loving the tractor. Thanks for the great video. Cant wait for the future videos.

[@claire_A-T]

Thank you JC for your Backwoods Cabin Series they are very comforting to watch. No stress no rush, I come back to these when things got hard at my house, I can turn on the computer and go to your cabin and watch your sensible approach to life and it brings things back into focus. Once again Thank You

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Glad you can find comfort in my videos Claire. It pleases me to hear that. My latest cabin update should ease the mind with the snow falling down and hot cuppa by the woodstove. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and please share my channel with others that may enjoy my postings. All the best to you.

[@kato2531]

Wow I just finished watching most of your videos. I must say the cabin came out really nice. There's not much a person need to live on. Nice job, I'm very impressed. Once you get the solar panels on, there's nothing left to do other than enjoy. Good luck and be well.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Glad you are enjoying my videos and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. All the best to you.

[@douguhlmann5761]

JC, you've down so much to that cabin! As always the attention to detail is what I love most. It good seeing you moving right along with everything. I'm raising a black and tan to you right now. cheers

[@dallas_red904]

A cabin to be proud of, such wonderful work you do, you are so very talented. One question, missed Frankie today..but the update was wonderful. Look forward to your next video. Have a safe and blessed winter.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Yeah Frankie sat this one out while he works on his list of demands :-) Thanks for commenting.

[@daniellegrandpa]

Great update JC, cabin looks great, Your talent in all that you do is amazing.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I appreciate that.

[@hickoryhomes6838]

I've watched this video so many times I lost count but your videos of the work you do on the interior and exterior of you Backwoods Cabin are so awesome, so fun to watch. An outstanding job and so cozy. Thank you Boss.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I appreciate your encouraging words.

[@23Josilee]

Sweet. I've dreamed of living in a cabin in the woods since childhood...a thing many people dream of these days...so your videos do put a smile on my face. The axe is a piece of "art"!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Hopefully you'll get to live your dream someday. Thanks for commenting.

[@treasureseekerintheway3515]

Now that is a huntin cabin right there! It really looks GREAT!

[@nerdanderthalidontlikegoog7194]

The cabin looks great. You have helped inspire me to build a small cabin/cottage of my own.

[@backcountrypipe]

If I could dream of the perfect cabin, yours would be it JC. Just beautiful. Wow, buddy you should be very proud, can't imagine the feeling of spending a night there after hunting all day. Best of luck with the deer hunt. PS. You got me awfully curious about those Black and Tan. Gonna have to keep my eyes open when I venture state side again. Regards Mark

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. If you ever find your way across the border, come on down to the cabin. We'll tip a few and grill some meat. You're always welcome here. The Black and Tans are one of the best beers I've ever had. I just got another 12 pack of Moose drool in the mail. Too funny. People are sending me beer now.

[@fredmoller1675]

Boss, you're one of the best craftsmen that I've ever come across, your cabin's, your homestead are a work of art. Your videos have really taught me a lot and entertained me at the same time, and Frankie really puts a welcomed spin into the picture, I look forward anxiously for more......thanks for making this my favourite KZbin channel!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend and please share my channel with others that may enjoy my videos. All the best :-)

[@fredmoller1675]

Yes Boss I've been sharing your channel with my friends and my sister who's into organic gardening, she even has an agricultural degree from the U of Guelph, so she is on the know of a lot of it.

[@MikeL-vu7jo]

Still these road vids are some of my favorites thanks !!

[@billkrause4585]

The perfect designed off grid cabin. You put a lot of thought into the comforts for sure. Draw up some blueprints, get the copyrights, and sale them.

[@JOHNMORIN100]

What a wonderful situation you have made for your self (We had 10 L16 Battries and they lasted over ten years and were still good when we gave them to a friend just starting in solar We now have Headway 10 amp cells that are the cats Meowww they never go dead and no gassing nor maintance 128 cells that can crank out lots of power to run the 120 volt well pump plus a full time refridgerator plus many 120 volt LED regular base lights it's been just about 20 years now in central maine with no electric bills YEAHHHH) We enjoy your stuff on the web. The Magoo's in Milo, Maine

[@KillingerUSA]

cabin looks awesome! Joe is very good people. If only more people were like him.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you. Yes Joe is a great guy for sure.

[@JoshuaSmithHomesteader]

Beauty of a cabin Boss!! Cheers all the way from Ontario Canada!!

[@pennilane8591]

Gorgeous. It's like Richard Proenneke met Martha Stewart and created this piece of Heaven. Well done!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Penni Lane LOL. That was a great response. Thank you.

[@josephsherrill8642]

Good to see you ! I really enjoy your videos and your love of the simple life. I live in a very remote part of North Carolina and enjoy every minute of the solitude.Still pretty hot here ,can't wait to get the woodstove going.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Been warm here too that's why I haven't bothered hunting yet. Thanks for commenting.

[@georgerpasalich5705]

I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoy your series on You Tube. I just ran in to them today. they call to mind so much of my childhood living on the farm in Georgia and Scouting.I don't believe my mom ever used anything but her big old skillet that was heavier than her. God Bless and keep safe George R Pasalich

[@JohnKing-ix4jq]

Real pleased I came across your channel. The road and cabin got me thinking more about what all I need to get done. Thank you for sharing this. You got a very nice cabin there, I must say.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thanks John, I appreciate the comment.

[@MusicMan6512]

I know this was one of your longer videos, but they always seem so short. I love what you have done with everything. I am always excited to see that you have posted a new video. Take care and good luck hunting!!!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I'm enjoying it too. Looking forward to starting the next addition.

[@leonardconstant]

Most inspiring, Sir! Congratulations on the great work and many thanks for the tour!

[@jcnme]

Your Cabin is Absolutely Beautiful Boss ! I can see all of your hard work and Love went into making it so. You are Very Talented and creative as well. Thank you Sir for sharing your journey. I truly appreciate it.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you for your compliments :-)

[@believeliveloveandlaugh3844]

You are really blessed with all those abilities you have working with wood.The cabin looks awesome.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you Ana. Not so blessed with nuts and bolts though :-/

[@jeffryrichardson9105]

Love these old videos!👍🏾😀❤️🇺🇸

[@chamilton9182]

Again, I'm late to the game on comments, but I just came across this channel and I LOVE it. Your craftsmanship is remarkable. I love the detail you put into your work. Well done. All Gods blessings to you.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you Chris and welcome to my channel.

[@caljim1950]

Good to see you again Boss. The cabin looks fabulous! You're becoming downright civilized! Certainly can't call it roughing it any more. Enjoy it.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

All the comforts of home and lovin it.

[@HAFFT1ME]

Love the brick work Boss. Well done as usual. I've watched and re-watched your videos and never realized you didn't finish the siding on the stove side wall. Can we expect "Adding on to my Backwoods Cabin #2" soon? Also let Joe know he has a request for "Hurt" next time he visits :) Thanks!

[@gregscountrycabinoutdoors7359]

Really love your cabin, you are living my dream. Thank you, I'm glad someone is. I have a cabin on a little lake, and I am trying to make it comfortable for me. Hope to at least retire there. Keep up the vids., Makes me feel good to know some one can be this happy with my dream.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Gregory Bergschneider Glad you enjoy them and thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

[@gregscountrycabinoutdoors7359]

thebossoftheswamp Saw the NH cabin updates today, can't wait to see what more you do.

[@NomadicBC]

Gosh I love that ice box, can't wait to build one at our new homestead. Great Vid! Thanks

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Good luck with your project :-)

[@JoeKaveney]

You're living the dream boss! Awesome job on the cabin and road! You're extremely talented. Thanks for sharing.

[@nelsonlauver]

Wow! Everything really came together. Enjoy it, you deserve it! I'm always so pleased when I see you have another video.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I always appreciate your comments.

[@patriciavyce1993]

I wouldn't change anything. I love your work. Beautiful !" 👍

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thanks again :-)

[@Meattrapper]

Man that's a lot of rock! That stuff ain't cheap brother. The cabin looks great my friend. Really nice. Your attention to detail really shows. I bet an old black cast iron kettle would make a nice firewood bin next to the stove.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. I've seen oval shaped copper tubs before with wooden handles. I think that would make a nice vessel for wood. I haven't started my search yet but I'll find something cool to fit there. As always, thanks for commenting buddy.

[@GarrettBrader]

The cabin is awesome boss! I have the same dreams as you did years ago...to live in a cabin in the woods and be self sufficient. I would love a cabin like that too! You are a real inspiration to me sir. Take care.

[@jailer23044]

Another great video. That cabin of yours looks fantastic, thanks for sharing it with us. You should be proud of the work you've done. You're right, that's a good looking axe, it deserves a place of honor. Put it on display somewhere in the cabin where any visitors can admire it.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

The axe is sitting on the hearth as a decoration. I think that's where it'll stay. Thanks for the compliments.

[@GardeningWithPuppies]

Your cabin has turned out very nice. Great accomplishment.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you very much.

[@AULTimateOUTDOORS]

Everything looks great boss! Beautiful cabin and the road looks good!. One of these day I got to do a video and share our cabin we have. Good luck hunting and take care boss! Looking forward to your next video!

[@tages_matuna]

The wood stove corner with the bricks is beautiful!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you :-)

[@avonleanne]

made my whole day to see a new vid from the "swamp boss" =)

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Happy to hear that. Thank you

[@avonleanne]

the cabin looks amazing!! I am looking forward to the how to vid on the toilet! Prettiest composting toilet I have seen so far!

[@LostCaper]

Yep one of my favourite youtube channels. I have my own channel but not nearly as good as this. I am working on a dream to get a huge woodlot and put a cabin on it and spend most of my time there.

[@vestadesigns]

Awesome job, the work, the cabin looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing with us.Jimmyd

[@thebossoftheswamp]

+vestadesigns Thank you kindly :-)

[@dylanbirosh3861]

[@colincolwill1941]

I am looking forward to watching some of the videos I watched when I first started to follow you Jim.

[@skyval7926]

Yay ... everything I needed to know how to do today , you mentioned in this video ! I've really learned so much from your videos , how to do live edge siding , refrigeration with ice , compost toilet details , thank you so much . I'm trying to finish an offgrid cabin myself and I'm so grateful to you !!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Glad you find my videos beneficial. Good luck with your project :-)

[@QuitKickingTheCan]

Thanks for the new video JC, I just had a load of gravel delivered to my new pole barn/home with the intentions of getting at least two loads. Once I paid for the first load i made the quick decision to wait for the next (very expensive). By the way I want your tractor :) very nice!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

That tractor has paid for itself many times already. It's a great machine.

[@catherinefontenot4574]

I've just recently found your videos. I've been watching them randomly and I love what you share. Reminds me so much of my Dad and the weekends we had in the woods. I will live off grid one of these days..I still have dreams to fulfill. Thanks for sharing. Catherine from Texas.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Welcome to my channel Catherine and best of luck with your dreams.

[@catherinefontenot4574]

Thanks. I love it!!!

[@johnblackie646]

Beautiful cabin,your living the dream love your work, really nice axe also, thanks for sharing your videos.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

+john blackie Thank you John. Glad you enjoy my vids.

[@jasonboy35b9]

Man you are bad you're awesome Wow I can imagine it being hard work but it's worth it I'm loving your life.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

+James Philips Thanks James. I'm on the threshold of my next chapter in life and you're invited to follow along. More videos on the way. Cheers .

[@louisemissouri4410]

I'm so happy for you that you have the cabin so you can sit and enjoy it without the feeling of "gotta do this or that". Lovely axe there, now you have an example for when you build your other sheaths for the working axe's. lol ATB Louise :)

[@thebossoftheswamp]

LOlL on the axe. Yes it's too pretty. I don't feel right about slamming it into a piece of wood ha ha.

[@ScubaOz]

Looking very nice, the roadway is looking awesome. So peaceful watching these vids, thanks!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

The road has come a long ways but still a long ways to go. Thanks for commenting.

[@jasonnelson8722]

Nice cabin man, roads lookin good. Love joes work.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you brother.

[@Kronkus36]

Joesneon is a very talented guy, Cabins looking great JC !!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you kindly. Yep, Joe's got a lot of talent for sure.

[@jetpowered1]

Love the setup! If you can change your lighting to LEDs you'll notice a dramatic decline in your electricity consumption. Thanks again for sharing!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

They already are LED's. I don't believe I still have any CFL's left in there.

[@lemmik1900]

I don't know why I wasn't getting your new uploads and I found it odd that you hadn't made any videos for a long time. That's when I checked out your channel and found that youtube wasn't notifying me. I'm sure glad I checked as I have been viewing your latest uploads for well over an hour now. You've got a great channel Boss and I really enjoy your material. What a awesome channel, keep up the super good, entertaining, educational and inspiring videos my friend.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Google's got Utube all messed up. If you go to your subscriptions, then manage subscritions, you should be able to set it so you get notifications of mew uploads. Glad you enjoy them cause I always enjoy your comments. All the best to ya my friend.

[@timknoerle6896]

Love seeing how everything's come together! Am inspired by all you've done. Fascinated by that image of the deer (with the barbed wire in its frame) above your brick woodstove surround. Thanks so much for sharing these really wonderful videos.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

That deer pic is a wallpaper border in a frame. Elcheepo art for a deer camp :-)

[@timknoerle6896]

Way to go! :-))

[@trapper23ful]

Wow what progress. I do like the detail you have added in the cabin fantastic effects. That roadway must be worse than the "chain gang" as a labor. Stay well and safe my friend and a HI Paw for Frankie

[@outdoorcountryboyforlife6511]

YEP, another good video. You the man, Boss.

[@rasha4625]

Very very impressed sir with the amount of finesse in your wood work.lovely kitchen, esp the floor and walls n the border.regards sir from India

[@thebossoftheswamp]

+Shompa Saha Thank you very much.

[@JMAAD]

your backwoods cabin looks exactly like I'd like my main home-place to look like.....very very nice my friend

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you buddy. I appreciate your comments.

[@manch0vy543]

Always another great vid!

[@13prevailbushcraft]

Awesome work JC...The road, brickwork, and the rest of the cabin look great...

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thanks buddy. I'm really settling into the place now.

[@royamberg9177]

Lots of craftsmanship in your cabin. Really looks nice

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Roy Amberg Thank you kindly.

[@jamesndarlene]

Your cabin looks GREAT! Man, your hard work is really paying off. I cant wait for you to make the "how to" composting toilet video. Been wanting to make one myself, and really like your design. Just found your channel last night and been watching all of your videos ever since. Thanks for posting!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I'll be building lots of stuff for my NH cabin this winter and the composting toilet will be one of them. I'm leaving myself the whole winter for projects like this. Glad you are enjoying my videos. Lots more on the way.

[@stevecraig7738]

you are AWESOME Buddy, I love your vids and that cabin ROCKS!! I've been a carpenter my whole life and am also 51 yrs. old so I can really appreciate the fine work you do. I share the same dreams of living in a cabin in the woods, where in the world are you? Love the accent by the way. Keep sharing the vids.

[@AdamCraigOutdoors]

i "thumb up" the video before it even starts to play. love your videos and appreciate the time you invest in them. Thanks

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thanks for the thumbs up. All the best to ya.

[@chiefamylee]

I found Dick Proenneke around the year 2006. I literally looked at Alone in the Wilderness DVD about 100 times. Could you imagine my thrill finding your channel?!?!?!? You're the best, thanks for putting out these fantastic videos!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Dick Proenneke is my hero.. I had a flight scheduled to take me to Twin lakes but had to reschedule. I want to see his cabin with my own eyes. The last thing left on my bucket list. Welcome to my channel friend :-)

[@gregnoyes4101]

i was surprised to have seena video of yours when you mentioned your in northern new york. i’m from ny and active duty military been in 10 years and now stationed near albany ny. i just want to say keep it up because your a inspirations and living the life some of us can only dream about.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you for your service Greg. Merry Christmas.

[@BROTHERoftheBRIAR]

[@thebossoftheswamp]

The place is coming into it. Heading there shortly.

[@rodney12310]

Love what you done with the cabin..the brick & the wooden handles tops it right off!! Nice gesture from Joe Too!! Man what i wouldn''t do to join Joe and yourself for a few!! All the best there JC!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you Rodney. If you ever make your way down here you folks are always welcome.

[@rodney12310]

Same applies to you!!

[@FISHBREATHH]

I was working outside and came in to take a break, my back is killing me and I was having a bad attitude. I was watching you video and when I got to the end I notice I was smiling. Thanks and take care. Dave

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Glad to put a smile on your face there Dave. Thanks for the chuckle.

[@mrmtman146]

Another great vid Boss, Anyone can see by your actions and the look you have while showing off the cabin is that like a proud dad. I really don't think you will ever be done working on the cabins as you keep seeing things you want fix or create, Take care, you and Frankie

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I don't see any end to the projects either. I'm not much of a couch sitter. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

[@backyardmeat]

The cabin sure has turned out nice! I loved your explanation of poop, it was spot on :) .....That axe is one of my favorites that Joe has restored, I think I would have a hard time using it too. Take care JC

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I love that little axe, just can't bare to slam ii into a piece of wood ha ha.

[@Dick-d1m]

😊 you really like that rocking chair don't you.. I suspect it must be really comfortable... I mean if somebody mentions something four times.. they got to really love it.. Hope you don't mind me picking on you. Makes me really happy.. you sharing the things you've done and the way you live... And your childhood dream I'm doing it.. All these things have been in the back of my mind for a long time... Thanks to you, I think it's time to make it reality.. I think it makes a house a HOME..

[@larryjacobs5713]

.... continuation from below ... to leave a SUV there so I did not have to rent a vehicle each time. Instead I had a heart attack and have been in the hospital waiting for bypass surgery. The reason for the wait was hurricane Harvey. Your videos have gotten me thru so far and have given many ideas I would like to implement. I will not get to go to my cabin this year, but thru your videos I have had the opportunity to visit yours, and spend time with a great guy. Thank you for adding so much enjoyment to this difficult time. God bless and all the best.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Sorry to hear of your heart attack Larry but happy to see you're still here to talk about it. Life throws us some crap and I'm suffering medical setbacks too and my project has come to a screeching halt. The future is uncertain for all of us. We do what we can, the best we can. I wish you the best.

[@bobbyballengee6221]

The cabin looks great Boss. You are a great craftsman my friend.God Bless my friend

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you kindly Bobby. God Bless.

[@mattdavies422]

great work as always, thanks jc.... I was wondering if you could find the time to do a carpentry basics video. it could even be a series,, thanks again.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I do intend to work on a series for that. I've had others ask as well.

[@deeannpookie8660]

Thanks for the new video. The cabin is looking great and you did a fine job on the brick. I bet you're already loving the new road. You're my favorite channel. Keep the video's coming. Love em! God bless you.

[@thebossoftheswamp]

Thank you my friend. Happy to hear I'm your favorite channel. Still got a LONG way to go on the road project but with the stone at 250 bucks per load, the project will sit dormant for a while. The tractor and tools are home, winter's coming and it's time to enjoy the place. More dutch oven cooking coming up :-))~ Thanks for commenting.

[@deeannpookie8660]

thebossoftheswamp Yep. Time to kick back and enjoy life for awhile. Looking forward to the next video!

[@robbaker336]

Always great to visit the cabin JC!!! Love the new road and I know you will too!! Always love touring the interior!! Can't wait to see the new location come to life for your business!! Sure wish I could get up to hang out with you but with our 62 acre farm / homestead, wife and 5 kids - there's always something pulling me this way and that!!

[@thebossoftheswamp]

I hear ya buddy. I'm busy enough with no wife or kids. Just made it out hunting for the first time and the season's been open 3 weeks. I still have over 2/3rds of the road to do but it'll have to wait. That stone is expensive :-o

[@cabincreek1692]

My wife and I cancelled the cable TV almost two years ago and we don't miss it. But I must tell you, and I am certain that I speak for most everyone who has subscribed to your channel, that I look forward to your videos as most people look forward to their weekly sitcoms. Every single video is done with such professionalism. Each episode is entertaining, informative and most of all, inspiring. On a side note - I saw the plastic water container on the counter and in your ice box. Have you ever used a Berkey water filter. We use it at our cabin to purify the well water and remove the sulfur odor as well as at home to remove the chlorine et al. It was well worth the investment. Take care my friend - I'm opening the last of my Uncle Jim's spice packets this weekend - I'll have to get some more.

Yes I have heard of that filter and it's on my wish list as well as a few other things. I'm very happy to hear that you enjoy my channel and look forward to my productions. I wish they didn't take so dang long to edit because I'd pump out more of them. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. I appreciate that.

All looking great Boss, Joe is good people for sure.

Thanks you buddy.

nice to know there's still a few people who can see the value in hand made work and old but refurbished things like that little axe. have you thought about making a coffee cup hanger and other things from antlers? I think that'd be a great touch. but it's your cabin and your decision, of course. thanks for sharing your cabin with us, you've got a great like palace. cheers now

I haven't made anything from antlers but I'm always making stuff from tree branches. I have totes full of crooked branches for future projects. I have more ideas than I do time. Cheers :-)
