[@Shawn-rq4py]

Do you guys ever just stand back, take a minute and look at all that your hands have made? It has to be a wonderful feeling knowing that you and you alone have built a wonderful family home. Not only that but a home that is totally self sufficient and doesn’t have to rely on anyone. You guys are a great inspiration. From your marriage, your kids to your home, your farm etc. You show a tremendous work ethic and a closeness w each other and your children. We can see the love you two have for one another by the way y’all look at each other and flirt, smile and laugh together. We see the love you have for your kids and they for each other and for y’all. I’m so glad y’all decided to make this channel and invite us into your life. You guys absolutely rock!!

[@wallywombat164]

You said all i wish i could say. Thanks, mate. I can't speak for all of us, but i am.

[@rogerelzenga4465]

People like this LOVE to create, there is always a new project to be done. and with a homestay work never ends....

[@TheScytheMoron]

Self sufficient until the electronics short out ... bullshit. This is like glamping ...

[@richardbyrum4618]

Well said Shawn!

[@Shawn-rq4py]

@@TheScytheMoron well Josh being a master electrician I’m sure he can fix it. And since it’s a permanent residence it’s not camping.

[@charlesburkhart800]

Josh, "Great things don't happen in 40 hours weeks." That is a profound statement!

[@beverlystufflebeam5731]

I’m gonna print that and hang it here.... y’all need to do a piece of Merch with that. Seriously such a true testament.

[@joanhaughton3391]

So true !

[@erikroberts8307]

Josh - Husband, father, electrician, home builder, channel lock master, cook, welder, metal forger, magician, and now philosopher. Wow! What an impressive resume'!

[@Sathirel2]

ooff!! It hit me up like a train! Thanks for that realisation!

[@garyanddebwi2857]

50 years of work proved this to me.

[@bloubull]

I'm sure folks have told you guys this plenty but, your effort in the editing department really makes your videos enjoyable just that last little bit more.

[@statikgalva3610]

Your guys' ability to do what needs to be done in some of the worst environments or situations just truly blows my mind and it's so inspiring. No matter what is going on or what the situation is, the two of you do what needs to be done all the while keeping up a positive environment for the camera and just having fun and having a great time with each other. You two are amazing individuals and together, are an amazing couple. Im always amazed at the incredible people i can find on KZbin, you two are amazing people, and i absolutely love your videos

[@missy2244]

Couldn’t have said it better. And they’re great parents taking time for their family :))

[@shelbyw1761]

This! 💚

[@Chromicon]

Leon is like the old neighbor guy down the way. Don't make eye contact, or he'll come over and try to "help".

[@CJLeTeff]

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@philipkuriger3420]

Leon is the supervisor. He makes sure Josh doesn't good off to much.

[@smitty2000]

I was like.. Oh..... poor Leon 🐏

[@paulinarios3665]

Nooo don’t say this it makes me feel bad 😞

[@sandrafinney535]

So funny!!

[@jasonbeedon9867]

Josh is a pro. That guy can build anything. So much of his labor and value is in this house.

[@jlmfoy365]

Erin & Josh that was one fabulous episode. What a team you make. Regards Jim UK.

[@유호현-f7w]

The way you two work together looks happy and so beautiful. Seeing each other's love is healing.

[@leslietarboxjr4287]

You two are simply amazing. You do not let the weather, illness or hardships slow you down at all. You just power through it and get it done while joking around and having fun while freezing your butts off. I am sure that you will not have a lack of power now. Great job.

[@mikefaulkinbury8932]

I’ve never been more jealous of your energy independence than I am watching this video from Texas between rolling blackouts. Congrats and thanks for the inspiration!

[@thomasb188]

You two are an inspiration to all who watch what all you do and your children are watching, you are teaching them well !!!! Keep up all the good you are doing and have a great day !!!! Enjoy !!!!!

[@genestatler2514]

I can just imagine how happy you are to get the new panels up and I am very happy for you. I would think that the massive array you now have should be more than enough to power everything you'll ever want to. WOW!! You two have the GRIT of John Wayne, out in that freezing rain.

[@MadAlan]

You two are amazing. I've watched from the beginning. Clearing land, prepping the home site with holes for the pilings, buildings the pump house. Wow! Then building your home... incredible feats from start to finish. Building and lifting the frames... there are so many outstanding and memorable episodes. Through it all... you display humor and terrific work ethics partnering together and enjoying being a family. Watching the children grow in height, stature and abilities. Truly inspiring. Thank you.

[@JFairhart]

I really like how the sunshine came out to reward you guys for your hard work on such a cold, miserable day to be outdoors. Awesome 😎

[@coleenrose5127]

Family is the greatest thing on earth

[@michiganengineer8621]

Great timing on getting the panels installed and wired. Looking forward to an after the storm update!

[@lesliewatts2878]

Super great photography folks. One more step along the way, finished. Good on you !

[@Jameson4327]

We are so happy for you and your family. Well done Josh!

[@garypickering974]

Good two days work. You were talking about your hands being cold. Handling metal in freezing, wet weather with no gloves on, yes I would expect your hands to be cold. The new panels look great. Hope the new rails arrive soon so you can get that upgrade fully completed. Our weather here, west of you is starting to break, so hopefully you will soon have warmer temperatures as well. Stay safe, warm, and well.

[@bobmerrill2057]

I’ve been self employed for 34 yrs and what you two have is hard to do, self motivation! Great job!

[@williamgornostai6360]

Josh Erin, your rock solid dedication to your faith marriage and family is what keeps your blessings coming. Thanks for sharing.

[@imranhussain4730]

Josh is absolutely Blessed with the gift to be able to make his dream home, an inspiration to the rest of us.

[@joanhaughton3391]

And with the help of his beautiful wife ..... a home they all can be proud of. A truly inspirational family.

[@dmcd7333]

The guy has talent on electrical, plumbing, building, and farming! What more does a man need?

[@markallisonmc]

Take care of your self . Tomorrow will be here sooner than you think. A father of 4 two girls and two boys. I wish I had those days back. My father would say when we brought the kids home, my dad would say it’s been a long time since little voices were our home. Protect these days . With my girls in college and my oldest boy almost 18. It goes so fast. You all are great parents just protect protect the hours and days. Love your show you are all so gifted.

[@marycomy5067]

You two are really something!!! Talk about a good relationship, loving, helpful!!! Josh you are so talented, and your wife is right there for you all the time!! The best of luck to both of you in all you do!! Luv you guys!!!!

[@Teacher_elleq]

Even in the coldest of days the quality of your video wasn't compromised at all. Thank you for valuable content and for braving the endless winter. Can't wait how your system worked out through the storm. Texas is having a series of power outages these days. Perfect timing for you guys to finish beforehand.

[@briancaldwell9549]

Just love the way you work together your a real team missed the kids

[@sammarino9063]

Y'all, I am so grateful for you today. Y'all remind me of my parents, you always have, its why I love you so much, just so special what you have. Last night my precious Momma went to heaven unexpectedly, and when I finally saw this video up, I watched it and it gave me joy inside, because I realized all the work they did, their 52 years of amazing love that not many get the chance to have, it was so fun for them, it meant everything (you will know this because you have it) and my sweet Daddy has all the amazing memories they had, to numerous to count, to get him through this, and it will comfort and protect his sweet heart knowing that they never waisted a moment all 52 years. Thank you for that moment of clarity. ❤

[@philiplaing6904]

Good morning from sunny Manitoba. Great job you two. Stay warm and stay healty and take care of Chuckie

[@craigbowman8280]

I never leave comments on videos, but your videos make me want to express how they make me, and I'm sure most everyone else that watches them, feel. From your videography, to your editing, your music choices, and your topics for both of your channels is near perfection. I always look forward to watching everything that you post with little kid anticipation. Very well done and I hope you continue to do what you do for a very long time.

[@timgrinton6249]

You two work so well together. Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

[@Windowswatcher]

What I understand about electrical wiring you could write on the back of a postage stamp....with a pick axe! However, I can appreciate what an awesome job you’ve done, Josh, with Erin’s able support. Goodness knows how you planned it all and how you remember what everything does and where it goes! Brilliant....both of you! X

[@huboftruthbymichael1921]

Once again, Josh demonstrates his vast expertise in how to expand solar and his ability to make it happen. Hope you write a book about this subject, Josh....I will buy it in a flash!! Great Teamwork pays off too.

[@paulinarios3665]

Yea I’ll buy it too!

[@memories511]

Wow this is some crazy weather. I am glad you guys have the energy to still work in this weather. WOW. So proud of you 2.

[@shawnlevitt8531]

I ran across this YT channel about a week ago and binge watched it like it was The Sopranos😂 You guys do a great job filming and editing (Erin) and your family is awesome. Thanks for sharing the journey.

[@robertfpjr]

Just watching the way the two of you interact always makes me smile. The joy you find in each other is infectious.

[@MrPaulcm1]

Wow, that's an awesome array you've built, great job.

[@LittleMountainLife]

Dang this solar panel array is impressive! Well done guys!

[@stephenkeefer3436]

Wowwww... Josh is amazing and he appreciates his wife, the love shows. Well done.

[@g2024_]

Great job. Can’t wait to see the whole array up and running for you

[@tf.2903]

I just wanted to say thank you for your volume consistency through out the video. To many times I find my self turning the volume up and down in videos between talking/tools. You do a good job of leveling out the audio. Thank you! I appreciate the effort it takes.

[@michaelsholler857]

60 + Hour Work Weeks built a Castle In The Sky. You both are AWESOME!

[@cia1204]

I love watching y'all work together. You know how to make it fun!

As someone pursuing an engineering degree in renewable energy, seeing these past few videos showing this whole upgrade process is so cool. Geat stuff!

[@armin8841]

You are a role model for families. solidarity, purpose and happiness❤

Not even the worst external elements can stop you guys . Real people , in every way . Not afraid of good hard work in any scenario . .

So young and so wise! Her way of raising her children and building her story is beautiful and an example for all generations. I wanted to be your neighbor. But I live in Brazil, it's a long way away. You are wonderful. I wish all the luck and happiness in the world for this beautiful family.

[@hollyslaughter5505]

Hunker down for the storm😉❄️

[@alanswift8805]

[@bomarchi]

I love the way you both deal with the problems you experience and the humor alongside. Every time great to watch 👍🏼👏

[@SJW82]

Absolutely love this series...,possibly my favourite channel, a long with lost in Europe. I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning....and recently caught up 2 years worth in 2 weeks (lockdown life 🤣) All my best and luck to you & yours, all the way from Colwyn bay, in North Wales (UK)

[@cpwatching5647]

Best looking system I've ever seen. Nice job! Way to power through the cold. My place was -22F on Sunday night but it was a dry cold. Your wet drizzle and foggy cold is hard to deal with. Good job. Take care.

[@deseandudley281]

Look what’s happening in Texas and these guys have their own grid! Must be nice to not have to worry about anybody turning your power off! I love the idea of living off grid and have water, power and everything for free.. obviously it costed money to get that luxury.. but good job so far!

[@dennisnagel4422]

Cost $ yes but think of it as paying yourself and not the Elec. Co.

[@sebastiendefra8877]

i follow you since 1 year maybe... What a long way, lots of sacrifices, lots of headaches and back pain, a lot of smiles and tears, see the children grow up and smilling, see your animals be loved so much... A lot of things that go end to end lead us to this, and it's certainly not over yet !! Do you realize what you've done last years ? It's hardly believable & just amazing, it commands respect !! All my best regards from France and millions of kisses for you !!!

[@danielmarek4609]

Good luck with the additional solar panels, chargers, etc. Give Josh a Little Debbie for the good work!

[@paulyh4531]

All that free energy , well done another fabulous job 👍

I've never seen anyone look so good in coveralls Erin you would look great in a feed bag .hey try that some time LOL 😆

[@breabarry]

Love this channel. You are both amazing. Love your determination and how well you both work together. Aside from what you are actually doing (which is amazing) the quality of the story telling, the photography, the cinematography, shot selection and music is so professional. This truly views like a first quality TV series. That fact we can watch it in almost real time makes this so compelling. Thank you both for sharing this journey in such an amazing way!
