DIGGING OUR UNDERGROUND GARAGE

[@georgeshawnjohnson8866]

I was a very successful maintenance superintendent for 3 decades. The secret to my success was these three principles: respect, professionalism and team effort. You have the right mind set. Keep doin good stuff, good stuff happens.

[@nigelrose8178]

Jordan you are right, as a site manager i will never ask my operatives to do something im not preppared to do, i always say a good general will lead from the front 👍, and thats what your doing, yes its hard but you show true leadership, love your channel love your family and how you are growing, Sadie with her beautiful eyes and loving nature, you must both be proud parents, she is a product of her up bringing, and to see her grow / develope speaks volumes, love you all / your channel and what you are trying to accompish ❤, keep going and you will reap what you sow

[@MarleneRomanycia-n4g]

OMG!!! I am soooo glad you are getting Sadie riding lessons. The bond that you can build with a horse is magical. Treat them right and they will do anything you ask of them. When my first horse broke his leg and I had to put him down I was decimated. My heart and soul were shattered into a kazillion pieces. It was months and months before anyone could talk about him without me crying. I wish for Sadie to find this bond with a horse. It is sooo humbling when you get a 1000 lb animal to do what you want…willingly. Or a scare trigger appears and your horse trusts you enough that you can talk him through it. I wish this magical bond to happen for Sadie.

[@sadieleclere1662]

Thank you so much for sharing Sadie’s first horseback riding experience! We have horses here in Idaho. I hope she loves the horseback riding and becomes a skilled horsewoman!!

[@mcoffeecation2153]

OMG Sadie horseback riding. Made my day. A lot of joy in these videos.

[@patriciafuchs5970]

Jordan, your philosophy regarding respect is spot on. Also, your relationship with Kaylee is an example of what relationships should be. It’s refreshing. It’s refreshing how much you both love the land around you. It truly is beautiful. Sadie is thriving.

[@geraldkoth654]

One summer I stayed in an RV park and there was a little girl like Sadie there. She took a liking to me. She loved "fresh" carrots. We had little garden plots but I had not planted carrots. I went to the market and found some carrots that were picked only, not cleaned or anything. I put them into some soil in my little garden plot. Then the next day I asker the girls mom if I could take her over to my garden plot. A short walk. We went over and "found" the carrots. She was absolutely ecstatic. One day her and her mother came over and she gave me a card she had made herself. She was 3 years old. Just so loving at that age.

[@marshalltille7770]

Nice story to read.

[@monamonroe7569]

You and Kaylee are incredible and the guys working for you with consistent work are such a blessing. Seeing your little Sadie on the horse was so sweet, she looked maybe a little unsure, but she did it 🎉🎉🎉love your family and what you teach us❤❤❤

[@johntatum1951]

Thanks to God for the pretty days to get so much work done. Sadie is going to have so many skills...dancing, riding horses, and cooking...etc....Speaking Spanish and English fluently....probably. God bless you guys and Merry Christmas!

[@RG-rc8yk]

Put something solid down in front of the steer.tilt your bucket down, lower it as far as it will go, lift the front wheels off the ground, fill in the hole with rock and lower the wheels back down

[@painfree.yourself]

It’s a real pleasure to watch you build your paradise. I am building my little paradise in Spain. I work in construction and I definitely agree, leading by example is a great way of leading a team. You transport so many „forgotten“ values. Thank you.

[@colleenbalch328]

SO GREAT to see your massive strides forward and to see the love and enjoyment you share being together as a family. (Please forgive but, PLEASE make sure that the chin strap is snug (one finger can fit, no more. A loose helmet will not help her if things go sideways.)

[@michelebushnik2874]

Oh gosh, deeper holes, more leveling for garage entry, you all are working so hard! My highlights of video: Moo moo getting the first carrot you grew in your greenhouse❤ and Sadie first ride on a pony❤❤ I know I'm an animal lover, and adore all the steps of childhood first experiences! My child is now 34 and I still adore the memories of fun times growing up when he was 3 etc!❤

[@carolalsentzer8357]

I am tired just watching you all. I am happy you have so many great people helping you. Love seeing the progress.

[@dolphinschild62]

I’m so glad Sadie is getting experience with horses and riding lessons. I miss my horses so much. Love and blessings to you all.

[@TxNWmn]

Jordan, I'm really impressed by your work ethic. It's rare to find people like you & Kaylee. Your employees will appreciate this, in the long run, and challenge them as well. May God give you all endurance and bless the land and home y'all are on.❤

[@annemcnaughton644]

I just love seeing how much love each other. Then i notice I'm smiling from looking Sadie! Great video today.

[@Suchshamefulpromotion]

Jordan your appreciation and joy is heartwarming!!

[@Double0pi]

Jordan--your little spiel on respect is so right on!

[@joycejones2979]

That scenery at the end of the day makes me happy, calm and peaceful! 💕

[@alycecoleman5965]

Love your outlook on leadership and respect! So many blessing coming from your property. Merry Christmas to all.

[@angiereinecke9608]

We love you guys! Thanks for sharing another glimpse into your messy, beautiful lives!!! Merry Christmas

[@jeanninebutland3834]

Little pepper who you don’t often see, seems to be loving the digging, she’s spotted in you video in the back ground being part of the work, she’s my favourite xx

[@brendahaire8824]

Y’all moved a lot of dirt. Merry Christmas Jordan, Kaylee and that sweet Sadie.

[@phosawelonewolf2886]

Your sunsets and rises are the special moments that you know the Creator is always with you. Beautiful 💜 PS I hope Teddy is over his ordeal now. Bless his furry little face.❤

[@madisonteuscher6346]

OMG sadie walking the horse was the cutest thing ever you guys are amazing parents

[@numberoneduchess]

QUESTION: Can you buy snow chains large enough to fit those tires? If so, perhaps you should invest in a couple of pairs. It rains a lot there, and there will be many times when you will need to move dirt until your house is complete. Just a suggestion. So far you are doing a great job. Can't wait to see the finished product.

[@marshalltille7770]

Not a bad idea. Tracks are better, but chains may get a few more things done.

[@patriciahagedorn5694]

Maybe snow chains on the tires might help you grip the muddy dirt.

[@janpcs]

I doubt if they will work. In snow and ice conditions they break the layer of snow and ice and get traction on the frozen ground. On mud and loose soil they might get a little traction but I think the difference is neglectable.

[@jamesphilbrook5567]

Jordan, please don’t leave the bucket up while existing the machine, I have personally taken people out from the front of the machine due to the bucket dropping on them. Be safe , please.

[@ShannonGibsonArtDesigns]

Sadie makes me smile as soon as I seen her sweet little face. Love you guys, and the progress is exciting!

[@007hwm3]

You guys are giving it a great run to build that amazing house 😊 Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone on Lola's farm!

[@lelacalhoun8362]

Because you guys are busy and everything you could set up a drip system. You have plenty of water with your rain. Your barrels are normally always full right, and you have your pup. From this river and green fried tomatoes are awesome. Try it You guys are doing wonderful blessings from Arizona. Blessings to all may grace dance with you on your path

[@SFNativeGal]

Respect was a given as I was growing up. It came with being polite. Taught skills and much by example. Today respect is sometimes hard to see. Sadie’s a natural on a horse! Perfect posture! Loved it Bless all that you do❤

[@karlaatherton]

My husband and I work together in our own business, I don’t even know why people say it is so hard to see each other all day long. Just like you, at the end of the day I look him up to hang out with him because I missed him “all day” at work 😂 Well? He is doing the business thing and not paying attn to me you know? I am happy to see you guys are just like us. We have been together 20 years already. We both have watched your videos for several years now, I wish we get to meet you in person one day. Oh yeah! Forgot to mention we have purchased your coffee several times.

[@mango8918]

Love this episode! Sadie looks so good on the horse. Before long you're going to have a ballerina/equestrian who wants her own horse and dance studio. I've mentioned it before but, I think that if you used a gas-powered posthole digger, you would save your backs and make it a lot easier to dig all of the holes.

[@williamgreenough]

sadie is going to be a very rich girl when she turns about 25 and she's on a good start with parents like you guys, great work...........😇😇😇😇😇

[@marshalltille7770]

Check out ‘Cole the Corn Star’. Yes he’s a farmer, but rebuilding a huge UG movie theater. Well, maybe bomb shelter. Viewers are guessing on that.

[@dianejohnson1991]

Glad y’all got good weather. You got a lot of work done. Sadie looked so good on the horse.

[@kbee1735]

Your enthusiasm is catching!!! I want to come to Panama!! 🥰🥰

[@jerrykonstigh1352]

I like that you adapted the metric system. It makes everything much easier. // Jerry from Sweden.

[@whatranch]

Sadie looks enthralled! And appropriately a little scared. ❤

[@gilbertmercado462]

Loved all the work done and how Kaylee found out that even with the skid steer it is hard work because of the soil but you all as well as the guys have a wonderful work ethic. Loved seeing Sadie riding a horse that is so special. Keep it up so until the next one be safe and prosper.

[@jameskniskern2261]

Don't leave the skid steer in the mud after the work day. Always park it on solid high ground.

[@carolfugaban2071]

Your hard work will pay off keep the faith love from Michigan ❤

[@cynthianichelson6324]

Great job 👏🏼 Wish I was younger to work that hard. I used to work hard. Can’t wait to watch this house go up.

[@kevinwright7931]

When I was in Junior High School from September 1977 - June 1979 the teachers were say that we needed to learn the metric system. That they were teaching us because the US was going to switch over to the metric system come 1980 and to his day we never did.

[@pmichelerowes3700]

I have the same skid steer and I promise you the wraparound cleats (track )are not much better. The cleats fill with mud, especially clay and slide around and around and around It would be more expedient for you to trade in your little guy and get one with the big rubber tracks if you can.

[@judithvilla6026]

Are you thinking of some kind of terraced/retaining garden area on your property? You could form that up with concrete and place your excess loam there keeping it out of the way. The wheeled skid steer is great for compacting the ground and will make building a construction material lay down area easier!

[@skohaya]

Jordan & Kay Lee are such the best friends. (Jordan you still need lots of sleep to heal, regenerate & extend your life). Sadie is so lucky to learn from her parents, the best teachers she will ever have!🎉. She is such a princess, knows her parents & community (people and animals) love her so much. And she loves them. What a life❤. So Blessed! 🌞🙏❣️

[@timwolters1969]

I just love you get in the dirt with the Guys. shows your a Team with all.

[@kellyh8347]

Kaylee looked like she did the first time she welded! Great episode! Your chat about respect is so true…loved seeing little Sadie on the horse, what a wonderful life!

[@danaa8971]

The Boquete and Volcan areas are my faves in Panama! 🇵🇦❤️ Love and hugs from the frigid Canadian prairies!✌🏻

Awe Kaylee and ajordan you guys are so sweet ❤ my hubby ans I feel the same. We work together and then wanna talk all night 🌙 but we're been married 18 years😊 he starts a new job next week and will be missed but our goal is to build our own off grid home next year too! ❤🎉 merry christmas, y'all 🎄🎅

[@bijou737]

Whew! You guys are amazing! Happy holidays!

[@pipertarin68]

Jordan, When I, was Trained in Restaurant Management. The Person, that Trained me, told me " You set the Tone!" He, was absolutely correct. I like you made sure to Work harder than Everyone else because I had Worked for Managers, that just barked Orders & never helped! So, when I began Training Staff. I , taught them the same lesson. Feliz Navidad or Merry Christmas ❤😘🎄🎁🍾 Blessings & Love to you all, Piper & Singer a k a. My Kitty.

[@sarahingham2758]

Jordan.. "like a crackhead" 😂😂😂. I think its because although you spend all your time together majority of the time you are both working and building a life for yourselves and your beautiful girl. When the evening comes round its chill time and who doesnt want to do that with your best friend and your baby girl ❤ ❤. Happy 30th Enrique 🎉

[@sarahingham2758]

By the way next animal purchased i can see being a little pony ❤

[@chandrasutton4669]

That is great progress!!! 👏 👍 👏 BRAVO 👏 👏 👏

[@larryatkins4512]

Great day on Lola farm , happy to see the process

[@user-kev-k5v]

Wow impressive digging you guys you work so hard and I hope and pray the sun shines for the next month at least so you get the earth dug out for the concrete fill later 👍❤

[@user-kev-k5v]

I can tell by Sadie’s face she loved riding that beautiful pony 🐴

[@giuseppeferrante9048]

You can literally make your own tracks that go over your tires. Need a few old tires some steel pieces, a grinder, a drill and a welder. You can use KZbin to find a video on how to do it or at least see pictures of them done. You absolutely have the welding ability to do this very simple.

[@jimfisk4474]

Again thank you so much you three and everybody else! It's also interesting and God bless you all and everybody there forever and everybody else!❤❤❤

[@rebeccagillig1931]

So you guys work so hard!!!! Thanks for sharing your world.

[@megcreates2.0]

I’m a certified riding instructor and I make all my “kids” start bareback so they learn how the horse feels and it gives better posture from the start❤😊😊😊😊🐴🐎🐴

[@mindyedwards7576]

Jordan your work ethic is admirable. You never ask them to do something you are not prepared to do yourself.

[@waderue]

So you guys are getting there and I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[@gaireywoolum5643]

OMG the last video scared me this one i saw the bucket up one time means you got out under again please don't do that your days are numbered if you don't listen ALOHA be safe for Sadies sake

[@ruththompson951]

Agree so much on your leadership philosophy. Its like an upside down pyramid. Your job is to support the group, lead by example. 👏👏👏

[@cheryllundholm8779]

BLUEPRINT -> What does your Blueprint show for the footings? Follow the Blueprint. The Engineer made it structural, already. The Architect is the designer. Call the Engineer about the footer positioning, if it needs to be corrected, as the Architect said. To me, it looks you dug them correctly. But, I have never designed in Panama, the soil, earthquakes, and heavy rain is something I am not accustomed designing for.

[@nelsoncollado9338]

To deal with the mud issue you could make chains wrap for the tires like the ones used for the snow. In my country of origin my father used them for dirt roads. You could actually make them yourself since you are a great welder. Good luck with your project.

[@classicclassycluedup8505]

Whoop whoop On holidays and watching you guys without rushing is the best

[@erinbarrow4819]

Good morning Kaylee and Jordan ,sadie and team happy holidays

[@jrp616]

Jordan get a set of snow chains for your skid steer tires. The chains wont help when its soupy, but they do help in soft mud.

[@deedeew4040]

The dirt you are digging looks so rich and it has much nutrients. I live in central Arizona and the dirt is caliche clay, hard as a rock.

[@surfalia1]

I believe foundations and such there need to be done when things dry out a bit, not at the end of rainy season. How stable will the construction be if its done on mud.

[@lindabyrne1645]

Love watching the channel!
