Shawn, I apologize for the length of this comment in advance. Two weeks ago I was reading the comments and many talked about how happy you seem now. I've been following you since the beginning. There were glimpses of happiness from you. I remember one time with you and Cali on the side porch and your visit to Dick Proenneke's cabin. You had a smile and gleam in your eyes. I didn't see that again until your girls came to the cabin for Christmas and when you tasted your wife's pizza. I'm so happy for you that you have found your true happiness with your wife joining you at the cabin. Thanks again for sharing your journey with us! You make my day brighter! God Bless!!

My wife and I are in our 70s and we are building a cabin up in the mountains in southern Utah. Been a hard winter down there. -22 and 3 -4 feet of accumulated snow this winter. Been chomping at the bit to get back down there to finish up this spring through fall. Your site has kept me going. First on the agenda is to do the backing for the stove and get it hooked up. Finish the siding and start the interior finishes. I am fortunate as well because my wife has always loved the outdoors and pushes me to get out as often as we can. We have a tent on top of an Xterra and have done thousands of miles of overlanding. She is beginning to struggle with arthritis in her feet so she won't be able to help like she has the past summers. Looking to push through so we can just sit back and enjoy it. I have built or supervised the building of over 4000 homes in my career and am still active running a residential home building company now. The journey has been great. Love when the kids and grandkids come down to help

I have watched and binged watched many of your videos over the last several months and have felt inspired, calm and interested. During this video, I closed my eyes several times just to listen to your movements, the Forest and Cali walking around. It was very comforting. At the end of this video, after watching Cali climb the snow hill to be with you two, and then crawl into your lap, tears welled up in my eyes. I was at Peace. Best channel on KZbin. And I dont own a TV.

I’m glad to see that your wife is enjoying it, may God richly bless your marriage and your lifestyle.🙏🏽🤗👍🏼

You can get a good sense of it by turning off your electricity and water for a month. Let me know how you like it.

In some footage I watched late last night, you were gathering birch bark to start a fire, and at the same time the sun broke through the clouds and lit up the entire tree and it looked like it turned the tree into solid gold. it was truly magical looking and unreal. I loved it. Did you see that? Truly awesome Shawn!

I got so caught up in it I whistled at Cali in the distance to get her attention one time when you were up sawing. 😮☺️ 🤣. That’s how much I get into and love your videos!! Loved seeing your wife out and about and such sweet moments with all of you and Cali at the fire pit.♥️

It is a joy like no other..... with all the loss the past year... this is pure and gentle and I do feel, very much.... that in some way... I am there... thank you, bless you and be safe...
