Thank you, Shawn, for showing us how to make a robust workbench, in such a skillful way. It's truly a teaching in perseverance and not hurrying things, like so often shows in the pace of city life, windforce 10. I guess it must be with a great sense of achievement, to see it finished, and hang the tools, clean the window. Sitting on the workbench with Cali, was great, it was as if you both shared a broad inner smile. Like others here, in the comments, I also appreciate what you film in nature, using the drone and camera. I'm often relieved to watch the presence of pristine wilderness, where you live. The animals in their natural environment, easy to spot in the snow. It's comforting and relaxing, helpful to keep in mind that it's part of keeping an inner balance, to hold on to a healthy perspective, and know one's direction, while walking one's talk.

Steady as she goes - that's what I love about your videos - interspersed with some of the most beautiful nature scenes I've ever seen!

The sound of silence with the beauty of the land at the end of the video is unbelievably beautiful. Well done Shawn you continue to show some amazing video skills.

A real heavy duty work bench, fantastic job of building it. Stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep warm and dry.

Not long now, the big thaw is coming soon. I think that’s my favorite time of year.

My gosh, that workbench is a dandy. I don't know what kind of work you're going to do on it but it's certainly sufficient. Great job!!

Thanks for bringing my Friday in with a relaxing start. Cali is one happy retriever. The marten is a sign of spring.
