Gathering Winter Firewood at Neighbor Al's

[@Aunty-A]

I’m 75 with two types of degenerative diseases. Watching Al is a blessing! His strength, agility, determination and energy are mind boggling!!!! God bless you both with continued long life, health and happiness!!

Thanks again Diego. I enjoy watching you and Al get the job done and just live life. I feel content watching your videos, sir.

[@webdev217]

Oh that's awesome 18 bucks for life. Farm exempt 😊

[@sikey4085]

I love this!! What a great way to live your life😍 Keep the vids coming. Great content. The calm, chill and no stress vibes is great.

[@davidwear1461]

Some of my fondest memories have been from a day cutting firewood with friends and family. Hemlock with a lot of knots is one of the toughest splitting woods there is I believe.

[@johntillotson4254]

Cool

[@monicacarrara761]

Please tell Al that an old italian lady wants to give him a virtual hug. I think he's awesome!

If AL doesn't have anyone to leave his property to..Pick Me! Al and you as well are living the best lives. Truly the dream!

[@gwynkoo8890]

wow hes 83 still cutting up wood and stuff thats awesome

[@newandoldtech5634]

I knew a guy that bought a heat pump when he was 91. The reason was he didnt know how much longer he could haul firewood.

[@nc2933]

He's a beast 👊

[@heatonhaus3073]

Love your videos & the vids with Al. You've both got the best energy together

[@randystover3285]

Nothing like good wholesome hard work and seeing your accomplishments at the end of the day. For 83, Al is in great shape. Great video! I wish Diego was my neighbor, always helping out.

[@fredrikohrman]

Nice guys, love the friendship you building there

[@gman100]

I'm 65 and I live the same way Al does, I'm happy he does things his own way and continues to enjoy it! I heat my place with wood, though I have a splitter to make things go a bit faster. My gf works with clay so I built her a studio when she moved it which I also heat with wood for her. I'm going to build a sauna after I saw Al's. Thanks for making and posting these, it's great to get people to really understand, this is the way we all used to live. Conservation was a way of life, not consumerism. Ask yourselves, if OSHA really cared about us all, they'd go after whomever's financing the chemtrail program, spraying us all like bugs on a daily basis. Or the UN, 75 years they've been around and many of their core tenets, (ending war and famine) have failed miserably, but they continue with a budget in the billions. Anyway, hopefully many get the point, there is a simpler way to live and be in tune with your soul while advocating for those with no voice, nature/animals, you can't go wrong.

[@kevink3461]

May want to install an expanded sheet metal on Al’s rear window to protect it. He can still see through it. That would be a good project for you two. Al’s amazing at 83; no wonder he’s in good shape. Thanks for the video.

[@killingtimeitself]

[@Sum4Seb]

Hi Diego and thanks for creating & sharing this video! Al - you truly are an inspiration. Capable of doing hard manual work, still driving a stick shift and maneuvering off road, sharing your knowledge...and all with a smile. We love your truck and beautiful home paradise. Hoping to see more videos like this one. Stay safe you two.

[@stevefarmer3197]

I'm Steve from Australia and I love watching your videos and the way you interact with Al and you will get lots of knowledge from a man who does it his way Sometimes not always the best way but that's just the way he does it. Cutting wood. Water wheel. Life in general. Simple ways and meens Thanks again

[@Olderthantime-ic]

Love to see the two of you working together. One imparting wisdom, the other absorbing it. Well done guys.

[@ruroki]

Great videos!!

[@metamud8686]

Al sure has himself a pretty fancy Plywood Parlor out there in the woods. 🙂

[@pettermakkonen2831]

Nice videos, put some grease on the batterypoles will help charging/start the engine

[@iwantmykidssusan4941]

I’ve watched this video like 10 times. The relationship between Diego and Al makes me so happy. And jealous.

[@laynesims8724]

Wow! I wish we all can make it to the 80s and stay same healthy! 🤞🤞😊😊 We would love to see more videos with him

[@jetlag634]

I need an Al in my life, so much knowledge

[@einardilligaf7507]

Stumbled across your video on the waterwheel. Seems like both you guys have been lucky with the new neighbor.😃

[@suezaple4950]

Al is one amazing gentleman and very smart know what he is doing and so very healthy , Id not know he was 83. Diego you are so fortunate to have Ale as your friend.That is one scary hill I would be afraid to travel let alone carry or drag logs would take skill that Mr. has. He is healthy because he keeps busy one could learn from a great deal from Al. a great deal of work completed . loving these video's watching from Ontario, Canada.

[@donnythedealah8511]

This video is just good vibes through and through, really lovely to watch man

[@lizgibson5266]

It's good you have a seasoned guy to show you around. Al is a treasure.

Would love to take Al a case of beer!

Might have to see about getting that farm tag on the side by side. Good jobs guys

[@superjetnorcal]

Awesome video man

[@househen1]

What a kind soul you are! I think living around Grandparents helped to nurture your helpfulness to elderly people. Plus, if you take the time to listen they will share more information that is helpful.

[@DavidWade55]

Love this type of VIDIOS NO SHOUTING ,NICE AND CALM AND PEACEFULL, NO SHOWY DISPLAY AND PEOPLE SHOUTING AT THE CAMRA ,,

This Man is simply Awesome... Hats off Sir..! 🙏🙏🙏

[@perogmiriamsjstrand1254]

Absolutly fantastic video 🤠👍

[@scottfoster2487]

Al is such a great person. Great of you to help a neighbor out. One simply can not have to much firewood.

[@Butterfly19708]

Al is amazing.

[@JohnOxford-zc8jm]

You guys all cut and block just like we used to do. When fuel oil went high in the 70s, we could not afford to heat our old house. So we went to wood. Three of us would cut a m total of 6 PU trucks of wood on a Sunday. I’d cut, our friend pulled the logs I cut out, and my Dad would block. We were finished cuttin😮g we would help Dad. We all heated with wood stoves. The safety crew would have had a fit. I had a Stihl AV 71. Loved it. A full tuck was when the reached truck cab top. I broke one set of springs. Many tales could be told about our adventures.

[@campingwithcharlie3011]

Great video always fun to get some advice from those old timers they know best

[@cynthiabolick3892]

Tks for video. Al is a strong man. Until next time.

[@genniejefferson6588]

I’m glad you have a great neighbor. It won’t be so boring.

[@timnash6870]

TIM from Canada if you’re gonna be out in the bush like this cutting stuff with your battery chainsaw invest in some sort of little gas generator. get yourself a heavy duty waggon you can tow everything with you. Having a mini generator will help you in the bush to charge up your batteries.

[@johnflynn3824]

You got a great life I love it thank you for your wonderful videos

[@newandoldtech5634]

44:30 We used to do that for since as long as i can remember. Save a few of the branches, twice the length of the firewood. and you are set.

[@ernestlmorellsr]

Man I remember seeing that old hot stove in many junk joints down South when I was a little boy, just a few logs of oak trees and you couldn't stay in the place too long, you talking heat! Of course everyone couldn't afford em, most people had those thin metal trash burners and the Lord helped you if you lived in a house with a wooden roof, one good spark and the whole house would go up in flames, thank God they started building houses with tin roofing. Great video, nice and easy, but I don't think I could live back up in the woods anymore, please, don't get me wrong, there are enough ways in this world where every man can have their own way, as long as you show others respect .

[@jerrystout3032]

Great Job guys!!!

[@markbellizia7997]

One tank of gas in the chainsaw, clever way for Al to get done a uniform amount of work with similar results…. Good idea!

I bought a new Echo & love it

[@jerrylyles8999]

Diego a question for Al. Has he tried an easy start stihl chainsaw? An essy start ms250 may do the trick for him. He could convert his, it only takes a new easy start flywheel and recoil starter.

[@themaverickmechanic7240]

Safety police here. Dress those wedges! Those chunks hurt when they fly off. lol

[@newandoldtech5634]

13:00 With wire in a block attached to the big tree to the left in frame, you could pull the wedged tree with the truck. One bit at a time at least...

[@evelyncunningham6939]

A log splitter would be a dream

[@Bornfromabove777]

Diego, get yourself a Fiskars X27 36” handle, it will out split that 8 pound mall all day long, a lot less work too.

[@JohnOxford-zc8jm]

You may not have lowered the rakers on the blade enough when sharpening. There is a gauge that measures raker to tooth height. Good luck.

[@manuelgarciaalaminos5996]

Cuantos años tiene el señor gracias ( desde España)

[@jimmalley]

Be careful with the wedge heads when they start to curl or flatten… a piece of wedge flew off ripped through my jeans, and cut my leg, I thought I was shot.. the piece looked like a flattened bullet!
