Very nice happy little setup.

[@MikeandLisasExcellentAdventure]

My buddy Kristofer! I need to go for another visit soon.

[@cdespey]

What a wonderful friend! I love everything about Kristofer and his home.

[@justmona9647]

Bex, You have amazing friends with Kristofer & Kelli + their beautiful pup Coya💖 Kristofer has REALLY come a long way on developing his homestead! Kelli has added so many homey touches making it into the prairie home Kristofer was aiming for it to be💓 It's fun to see y'all get together

[@homesteadkelli9913]

Aww 🤗🤗 thank you

[@soonerjhtravels]

Thanks Bex for showing us what Kristofer has been up to! Good job!

[@BexCatherder]

Thank you! I enjoy seeing how homesteaders do things. :-)

[@alvashoemaker8536]

…justifiable PRIDE of OWNERSHIP!! WELL DONE…!! 👍🏼👍🏼👣

[@zebesterhaze69]

Thank you Bex for Sharing and Thank you Kristofer for the tour and allowing the Bex to post and share your homestead.

[@RVRebelGirl]

so nice of you to shout out Kristophers homestead and channel. I stop every year to visit on my way to Yuma. He is so kind and works so hard!

[@lindagolden9892]

🌻 Bex - Nice to see you’re doing okay in the outback; wish you filmed more often. Hope you’re enjoying the Memorial Day weekend amongst friends and beautiful country settings.

[@jkyontz]

I enjoyed seeing Kristofer hauling his water. It reminded me of when I did the same back in 71. I had three 55 gallon barrels in my VW bus. After 5 years, I finally got a well.

[@someguy9778]

If I could, I would definitely do this. Thanks for sharing.

[@artbyrart]

Kristofer is such a resourceful person. It's very interesting to see how he gets along. Thanks for sharing. As usual, a great video.

[@enhancedsimplicity9708]

Love ❤️ it!!! 👍🏾 Great Great Job!!! What u said at 3:25 ❤❤❤

[@lindagolden9892]

Where there’s a will…there’s a way. It appears your homestead is functional and affordable with personal added touches to make it home-sweet-home although I’d miss some shade trees. 🏡 👏

[@margarethughes3763]

Thank you Bex. Lovely.

[@2busysecretary]

Kristofer has an amazing homestead! He is such a handy and knowledgeable person, AMAZING!

[@sandraharrison1348]

That was very interesting! I like his attitude and ingenuity. Great video as usual Bex! 👏

[@BubbaWarbucks]

Bonus! Two of my favorite KZbinrs in a single video. Life is good.

[@BexCatherder]

Yay! :-)

[@tomcaldwell5750]

Wow. What a nice friend. I always wondered how people filled the water tanks on a regular basis (on a trailer of course). Lots of ingenious homestead devices. Bex. Thanks for sharing.

[@BexCatherder]

Some people can get water delivered, like my friend Ausia does at her homestead. But then you have to pay a little extra.

[@cdb4464]

Hi Bex!Just found your channel. What gems you, Kristofer and Kelli and Coya and Stella are. Very interesting and ingenious homestead they have out there. I too have been considering a similar situation. The crane flock footage at the end really was stunning. Took my breath away. You captured the beauty and ruggedness of homesteading off-grid with poetic sweetness. Really blew me away with that stunning bit of bird footage. Keep up the great work you guys. You have a new subscriber in me!

[@justapeep2510]

Nice video Bex, Kristofer has an amazing place. Loved seeing the Draw at sunset, beautiful.

[@joycepollitt7825]

Good job Kristofer

[@susanstone3588]

A simple life that takes a lot of hard work, I'm inspired.

[@homesteadkelli9913]

Aw 😉 you get it. Lots of hard work.

[@ghostrunnerco6791]

living the dream👍loved the cranes at the end

[@r8edrv4fun65]

All those sandhill cranes.... wow! Did you know they soar a mile high?

[@dncook1955]

As always, great job Bex, Kristofer & Keli are living the dream.

[@tjadenmade0470]

I like this work with what you can get or got. Don't need anything fancy.✌️

[@BexCatherder]

Yes, me too. Much of the wood he used on his fence is free or reclaimed.

[@tjadenmade0470]

I subscribed to their channel, I enjoy seeing peoples journey.

[@LaCatLady]

Subbed to your channel, Kris. Hubby/I look forward to starting at the beginning and working our way to the current video.

[@joesrvhome]

lucky couple...great place they have there...looking forward to my homestead as well...retirement countdown! 13 months to go!

[@ramblinroam]

OMG WOW the place has reallllllly come along since my visit to see him!!!

[@BexCatherder]

He got a lot done in the short time I stayed with them. :-)

[@ramblinroam]

@@BexCatherder thanks for the video it’s great to see you both!!

[@patriciamartin1626]

Hi from Tennessee. Nice homestead. Thanks for sharing your friend's homestead. Have a great day.

[@debicaron6046]

What an amazing person.! Wow! He's very inventive. Thanks Bex.

[@Anthrit]

Yep that's my boy. He got me into homesteading as well. His vids modevated us to buy land and go off grid.

[@homesteadkelli9913]

😉

[@m.d.grimes1622]

He's a nice guy Bex, you have very good friends. Thanks for the video.

[@Texas_Squatch]

All bases covered. Outstanding!

[@BeverlySapp]

An enjoyable video today. I like knowing you are around people at times Homesteading takes many shapes and forms. Enjoy your life Bex!

[@KampingKatie]

This is great. This is what Im working toward right now. Congrats to the 2 of them. They are living thier best life. 😊💙💙💙

[@rimonagale1625]

Very impressive! 😊

[@4321grp]

Hello Bex, Thanks for the video, Kristofer' has done a great job with his homestead; I was wondering where his partner Kelly is? She isn't in the video.

[@BexCatherder]

She did not want to be filmed, which I can understand.

[@4321grp]

@@BexCatherder , Ok, That's understandable, I wish them both the very best.

[@FishMH]

Genius !!! Thanks for sharing, gives hope

[@carolynnunes3922]

Great video! I’ll check him out! You gave Kristofer a wonderful introduction through your video, Bex! God bless y’all!

[@JanelleVocate-Ames]

YAY!!! Good to see you!!!

[@adayinourworld]

Awesome video! 👌🏽

[@KWMc1952]

What a cool guy!

[@karenkazjefreys2913]

what a great set up. thanx bex

[@justlookin3]

I’ve been watching Kristopher since he lived in Frankie. All of this homestead was due to hard work and ingenuity plus a willingness to roll with the punches. Like when the barn was delivered by a newbie who ran into Kristopher’s car. Yikes! Thanks for adding subscribers to his channel.

[@BexCatherder]

Yes, I met Kristofer when he was traveling in Frankie. It's amazing to see his living situation blossom.

[@lindaperry9950]

Good for him! Thanks ❤️ Was the water free?

[@daisymae3511]

Wow, Bex! Where did you find these Sand Hill Cranes? Thanks for showing these...

[@BexCatherder]

Those are right down the road from Kristofer. They were so loud in the evenings. Thankfully, they are only there for a couple of months when they migrate.

[@daisymae3511]

@@BexCatherder Loved seeing those, but I can imagine they could be quite disconcerting hearing for some time.

[@barb736]

this was so informative about how they live..its great lots of work but off grid..were those birds Sand cranes?

[@3generations393]

Very informative and he is very creative. Thank you both for sharing this life style. Are you thinking about homesteading Bex? I have watched Aussia turn her place into a little paradise. I have also seen a woman homesteading on limited income. I am impressed with their will and hard work to do/get what they need. 🙏✌️🌎💞

[@BexCatherder]

Yes, I have thought it would be nice to have a little place where I could stay indefinitely if I wanted. Problem is, I still want to travel around so I wouldn't be able to leave anything there for fear it would be stolen. So I'll keep to using my friends land for the time being.

[@3generations393]

@@BexCatherder thank God you have good friends. I find at my age-I have outlived most of mine. Not complaining just observation-may God bless you in your journies Bex. I have dreamed of traveling in a van since I was in high school. My fixed income keeps me from purchasing a vehicle not to mention the cost of fuel. I look forward to all the videos of your nomadic tribe to keep my hopes up. Thank you so very much for sharing ❣️. 🙏✌️🌎💞

[@kimcollier7241]

You need to get drought and heat tolerant trees for shade

[@rockingredpoppy9119]

How does one, just get trees.

[@atelierteale8012]

@@rockingredpoppy9119 Sometimes saplings or divisions from friends. The Forest Service periodically thins new growth and may sell the excess inexpensively or provide at no cost . Just have to be sure they are compatible with the area, are not invasive and you can move them! 🙃 If looking for specific species, traditional purchasing might be the only option. ...Teale 🏜️

[@Eye-Am]

Does Kristofer have a vlog on how the Berkey like filter was constructed?

[@billcade3325]

Great video good job love your videos

[@BexCatherder]

Thank you. I'm glad he was up for it so I could practice filming someone else and editing. :-)

[@kathystevens8163]

He is living off grid, like I would love to do.. ...

[@ZEUStheKingGermanShepherd]

What kind of grill is that ? Propane?

[@KristoferTravelsHomesteading]

Yes it's a regular propane

[@KristoferTravelsHomesteading]

Oh Or did u mean her grill?

[@jhemnes1]

OMG SOOOOO many good ideas. I live off grid as well. You can come to my channel and see my setup but mine is temporary until I can get a rig and build it out. I plan to buy some land out west just like that and do a tiny house for a west home base. Kristofer is doing a wonderful job living the life and seems really happy. 😊

[@travelingwithcharity6598]

[@bdokey2]

Is there a fee for the water?

[@KristoferTravelsHomesteading]

$9 for every 1000 gal

[@exploringnewhites]

Curious, Is the water free? And how often does he have to fill up?

[@Zeldagirl64]

❤

[@guy4698]

um looks like power on his roof lol

[@pupcamper58]

Hm

[@pedro72246]

What country is this? No water? No sewer? No power? Let me guess... No paved road? How much $$ is USA sending to Ukraine? USA should help other poor countries like where this guy lives!
