How I Got This Big Ranch All of a Sudden

[@waltlee3172]

You are blessed

[@EdKeen-sr5xs]

Hope you keep it in family money is worhtless ❤

[@erice9536]

What an awesome place, worth more than any numbers on a computer screen. Hope it stays with you and thank you very much for sharing it with us!

[@johnk.3593]

I hope you keep it for generations to come. They aren't making any more land. That's a beautiful piece of family property your family has.

[@lesahanners5057]

To have a wonderful heritage ranch like that is such a 10:56 privilege. I do hope it can be kept in the family for future generations. Once it is sold off, then what?! So it eases a few people's pocketbooks for a while, but what is lost is priceless.😢

[@michaeldean4704]

Epic location. The mountains, the forest, the rocks... so peacefull, so serene. Will you adopt me?

[@christophervanlerberg4149]

Thank you for sharing!

[@petergledhill7380]

Keep it in the family. That’s what your father , grandfather and great grandfather did. As a thinking man I know youll find the right solution 😊

[@bumpkinrocks]

Hopefully it's not sold and future generations get a chance enjoy it more than the current! I'd spend the rest of my life up there given the choice.

[@stevemario9807]

Wow, that is absolutely beautiful there I hope you and your family hold onto that.

[@davidwilson4846]

Wonderful. Thank you for sharing this perspective.

[@Larry-hi1ri]

Beautiful place

[@awldune]

Beautiful spot

[@kenbrown2808]

I spent a lot of my youth digging round rocks out of my parents' place. I'm glad they weren't as big as your round rock. our biggest was too big to pick up with the tractor, but we were still able to roll it out of the way. my guess would be that the old house was built where it was, because it wasn't a good place for parking cows. cows don't have very good parking brakes, and if you parked one there, it might roll down the hill into the creek. sop they parked the house there to leave the good parking places for the cows.

[@eamonnmckeown6770]

The Cowboy Detective mentioned how in Appalachia the houses were built on the worst land to preserve the good land for farming and dry creek beds were the main roads most of the time. I got detoured once from Ohio through WV and in Western Va. I came across a house dang near suspended over a creek long since abandoned.

[@magunco]

time on the round rock is priceless

[@vanderfleet-martin]

It’s a lovely place, you are very lucky to be able to enjoy it.

[@brentjenkinsdesigns]

I think your family's ranch is a perfect definition of the term "God's Country" or "Big Sky Country". Although I am sure there's many more terms that would fit such an amazing bit of nature. Also, I couldn't tell you what you should do or how or why... Were it mine. I would fight tooth and nail to keep every square foot that I could. When the prospect of big money comes to mind, people forget that they have a mind... And, if keeping it becomes impossible, I would certainly take whatever were my share and find another slice of heaven to call my own. Lots of "ifs". Thank you for sharing it with the rest of us. I subscribed because of your sawmill and firewood endeavors. Then I learned a how you log with a pickup truck. Which was awesome by the way... Then i seen the ranch. I really appreciate your channel sir. Again, thank you for sharing it.

[@nhmountains5683]

Beautiful Michael. I think I get the same feelings as you when I’m on my land in the hills of New Hampshire. Dealing with multi owners of properties over multiple generations is a very difficult thing I hope it works out for you and doesn’t end up in the pot owners hands.

[@connorfackrell4274]

Came out of curiosity, stayed for the humor and the beautiful views. Thanks for the content!

[@calebdoner]

I hope you get to keep it. That's the problem when younger generations lose touch with the value of things.

[@rustylininger8252]

Heaven landed on your lap! I hope to carve out something similar in Oregon. So many ranches going derelict because younger generations don't want to manage them. I enjoy the history. Thank you!

[@SamBrickell]

I love when you end your videos with that funny puppet show. I know every line by now, but I still laugh every time when Mr. Froggy makes that toast before throwing his beer on everyone else.

[@adelarsen9776]

Ben Cartwright would be proud 🙂 Humans do best in nature.

[@paulamoore1221]

Amazing family history in southern Oregon. You might want to let your KZbinrs know what the area was like at the time that your family first arrived in the 1860s.

[@PaulHodgson-gm6lg]

I like that you have Blackberries, I finally got them to take, 2 years ago after putting the seeds through a pig.

[@danbarrette9888]

That pool looks like a ceeement pond. I believe that Bambi was trying to tell you something is wrong with her mama. It is a beautiful peace of property.

[@peteanderson1714]

beautiful chunk of ground

[@mikehorton3664]

always enjoy your videos, and you are blessed. God bless,matthew 6:33,proverbs3:5

[@Version135]

Amen brother!

[@BrettMarsden-h7u]

They built the house so it was out of the way. And also you know what flows downhill

[@BarryBurroughs]

Future family generations will ask how could they have split up and sold our family history and place of security? Thank you for all your videos showing the rest of the world there is a better life to be had by all.

[@N4HHE]

Hope you can keep it. Is good that a place be owned by those who love it. Vs the logging companies for whom it is just an asset in the balance sheet. As a fallback you have the (new) coast property?

[@timothybrawley7909]

Nice place! As for the cattle drinking out of the pool, I would put a watering trough down below it and just maybe they will drink out it instead. But, know the nature of cows;"Maybe not!"

[@Norman_Fleming]

Tell them you never sell land. They are printing new money every day. There is only so much land. It is being used productively soooo, seems like it is being cared for. :)

[@lepotdefleur9906]

About the pool, maybe build a fence around it? You certainly do not lack woods haha.

[@asamelia5124]

Could the creek play a role on where they built that house ,

[@mdm17146]

Rule number one: Never, Never, Never sell your land.

[@revhbateman]

Is the grass ever green

[@Dustin_the_wind]

Selling that land would be a mistake, I think. You won't get what it's worth, and that land offers the family a life you just can't get elsewhere. What's money, compared to that; it's what I'm seeing. I do see the work and investment associated with the property, but to me that's more living than anything. Thanks, Michael.

[@Version135]

God made us to work in His creation, and not to hide in cities. I am with you 100 percent.

[@Dustin_the_wind]

@@Version135 it is a deep logic to ponder indeed. It's a book in of itself, and many truths are not known; but suffice to say the people are not being lead right, for this is a mess; and to have a piece of land like that is absolutely so much better than downtown seven days a week.

[@LiveFreeOrRIP]

what do you have there 3 4 acers for sale?? Here in NH thats worth about 120k

[@CatDaddySteve]

because Your living off of Grandpas hard work

[@marktullis1175]

Very enlightening essay!

[@gregorymacneil2836]

Clever farmers strategically place their buildings on the least desirable land, turning challenges into opportunities! That's what I've heard, at least!

[@gdot9046]

That’s sad. Your great grandparent would hate to see it sold and so would I. Any deed on land passed down should go to whoever wishes to manage it and only sell if no one is able to take over the taxes. Write it in your will!

[@The-Armed-Pacifist]

Beautifully desolate.

[@blakespower]

they probably built it by the creek for close water access to empty the outhouse if they had one maybe they just went in the creek eww

[@garysnyder6020]

We are all just dust in the wind. You never own anything although you may poses it for a brief time. Nice place to live but if you don't want to, sell it.

[@johnoneill7485]

Why don't you find a way to keep it in the family?...at least talk it all over with them...there is no more property being made!...believe me when I tell you that you are the type of individual who belongs with Nature and will rue the day that you let this beautiful location fall away from your family's hands...listen to your many grandfather's!

[@HubertofLiege]

First world problems. There are kids in India that have to share their pools with cows. Don’t get me started on those Chinese kids…
