That Wasn't Supposed to Happen | Cabin Renos, Gravity-fed Spring, FARM VLOG

[@elysiana8889]

So glad everybody around you could laugh about the little mistake you made. Little loss but greatly taken with humor, I love you for that

[@cherylcheers659]

Chelsea, I just love seeing how much you love your livestock. As a former farm girl, it just warms my heart to see that connection with your animals. I like your cooking too, and the gardening, but the animals are special.

[@danamama6766]

I agree treated with love and care makes the world of diffence to. Treated respectfully which is the way it should be so wonderful to see.

[@khome707]

You are a busy lady! Kudos to you on everything - channel, Membership Community, cookbook, keeping LMR and all your projects, gardening, kiddos....just wow! (and I know I left out so many). You are an inspiration:)

[@ShellyS2060]

It is so fabulous to watch you and Dan work together. My boyfriend and I can even make a meal without minor squabbling. Its never really heated, but, we argue. Mind you, it has lead to many giggles and smooching after the dishes are done.

[@deno.520]

Oh my gosh! You made me laugh so hard with the milk! I could see myself doing the same thing. LOL Loving the cabin and the idea of bringing back the creek!

[@tammyyoung5279]

Oops! The whole time you were cleaning the milking machine, I was thinking, “I really hope she emptied the milk off camera.” Oh, well. These things happen. Oakley is so sweet!

[@suemcknight9051]

Well… if that’s the worst thing you ever do in life…🫣🥴…I think everything will be OK in the grand scheme of things! 🥰 💖. As we all know - - “Mama said there’ll be days like this!” (wise woman, that Mama 😉)

[@caroll.2474]

I actually wondered if you emptied the milk before cleaning the milder. I definitely laughed with you. Been there. 😂 Love your love for your animals. They are so fortunate to have your care.

[@elysiana8889]

Also nice to see Dan and how well he explained the maintenance of your well and water system

[@denisdebhudson6985]

Composting toilet maybe an option for the cottage bathroom. They are becoming increasingly popular in the caravan/RV industry here in Australia.

[@kimsmith3451]

I've often thought I would make a mistake like that.....a lot more often!!!

[@goodandgreen]

It’s so enjoyable to watch your videos because the audio is stellar quality. Thanks for wearing a mic, it’s like we’re right there. So cool to witness a life close with the land, plants, animals.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

My pleasure!

[@catracampolieto8989]

Glad you had milk at the house. The cabin is looking nice, love the ceiling. So glad Paddy is doing good. Have a wonderful day.

[@paulettebarber7219]

The cabin will be so nice! Good idea to put in loft window. For bathroom maybe have a compost toilet and a shower.

[@patprettyman2273]

I live on the Oregon Coast, and we just don't remember such a cold June. The weather is something to watch, simply because we need the heat for our food gardens.

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

Looks like things are plugging along. I feel like the ranch is in a peaceful state right now. Not sure why I’m feeling that but today’s video is extra calming! Cheers, Doc❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I’m really glad. We’re trying.

[@danamama6766]

Milkweeds happy purr.....AWWWWW Chelsea! Well I have done many similar things that should not have been so You are not alone. The only difference I do not say good grief..I cuss myself sideways haaaaaa. I should rechange that process because really who cares. Its just a booboo nothing life threatening. And yes a good giggle out of it is way better than losing sleep I will try to remember that... And sharing it with us shows a lot. This is why we love you so much. I really love your well water system this fascinates me. I am a realtor and run into many situations as I sell mostly, well prefered country homes for many years and enjoy seeing other parts of Canada situations. Plus I was born in BC so miss it still. Was dragged away many years ago but still remember a lot. We are the same. Had some rain finally to and now need the heat! love and hugs

[@2plus2by2]

No word of a lie, when you tossed the milking hoses in the wash mixture, I thought to myself, 'I guess you need to make sure its into a different bucket or have emptied your milk. I'm sure she already did that.' The twins were thrilled to see a bee update! 🐝

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Hi boys!

[@caraconnolly8472]

It’s so lovely to watch the seasons change in your videos ❄️☀️🌱🍂

[@rodneyferris4089]

Good on Milkweed! Cows pee and in a stanchion they dip their tails in the manure trough for special love taps as you milk! 🤣

[@judithwright5084]

Can’t wait for your next printing of your cookbook

[@tammyjocooke-ov1nw]

Looking forward to your printed cookbook!!!!!!!

[@pansyvaughan5624]

Nice We ski had homemade spaghetti tonight! My own canned tomatoes, and canned pasta sauce... so good We also have got some rain and cool weather lol cold actually Hoping for sun now

[@larah287]

Thank you for sharing all your adventures with us. In ON and will be watching to see when I can purchase your cook book. Congratulations ❤

[@chrisanndunn8814]

I just love it when you film the cows, they are so beautiful.

[@joannak4640]

Hi Chelsea!! The small cabin is really coming along beautifully 😁 I am curious, though, if putting the ceiling under the loft might make it seem so much more enclosed and shorter. I'm wonder if painting it white or something might be better. You'll be losing like 6 inches of what would make it feel taller underneath 🤔 Also, if you DO end up putting in a bathroom, I know Simple living Alaska uses a hot water heater that needs no outside power. Just the propane tank and like a D size Battery 👍 I'm happy for you about the grass clippings!! Do you have a pile of them off to the side just rotting for future use? It's fantastic as a fertilizer. Thank you for taking us along all over the farm. It was nice seeing Dan Love you, girl ❤️

[@cynthiafisher9907]

I thought that was weird that it looked like the water went into the milk reservoir. Oh well, I love that you can laugh it off! The cabin is coming right along. It seems that it would take away the rustic cabin feel if there was a bathroom in it, but I understand no wanting to have visitors coming into the house. What about an outside shower with rain catchment and use a compost toilet or the outhouse? It seems dealing with the waste would be a big project, would you have to have a separate septic system? That was so sweet seeing all the animals, especially the cows and the bunnies. My 2 year old grandson watched with me and enjoyed it so much.

[@Lynn_Up_North]

Hang in there love. Know I’m thinking of you, your sister and the whole family.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much!

[@sharimarticotte2494]

Very excited about the hard cover cookbook! Can’t wait! Glad you are shipping to your Canadian friends directly!! Thank you for doing the work to get that organized!! Enjoying your videos in Ontario!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🍁🍁

[@carolynmiller1774]

I can't wait to get the hard cover cookbook!🎉

[@dhansonranch]

I had just had the thought when I saw the jars that you had not emptied milk ...and then you claimed it. It happens! Dan did a great job explaining what goes on with the well - so interesting. If you move the overflow pipe in the general direction of the old creek bed, it will find its way and clean out the bed for you. Meant to mention to you last video that for your herb bed by the greenhouse...if you cut open a mini bulk bag and lay it down under the bed it acts the same as landscape fabric. It allows water through as well. I ran it up the outside of the bed but should have gone higher of alternatively gone on the inside of the bed. I have done this on my beds to stop tree roots and quack grass coming up in the beds. Because you will have multiple cabins, maybe a separate bath house might be better. Alternatively or in additionally, maybe a small room for a composting toilet might be an idea. For handwashing inside the cabin, a water jug (filled from tap) on the edge of a basin would work. Good video!

[@JKnight911]

Oh I can’t wait for the hard copy of your cookbook! I love your channel ❤️

[@minahaidari1203]

So much hard work. God bless you guys. I love living in nature , but couldn't do a bit of what you guys are doing.

[@russelljohnson4701]

Awesome on the hard cover cookbook. Can’t wait till it comes out.

[@denisescull4227]

I was wondering where the cleaning water for the milk machine was going! Oops 😊 where do you usually dispose of it? It's such a treat to see and hear the animals, it's not often that I get to hear a cow moo or any of them crunching on their food. I could listen to a whole video of a cow or any animal, make their animals noises and eat their food. The cabin is looking really pretty. Thanks for the lovely walk and chat today! I appreciate you ❤

[@johnensminger7675]

Cabin is going right along... looking great! Thanks for sharing with us!

[@iartistdotme]

The cabin is looking good and I understand how excited you must be to finish! .

[@kimkerley4218]

I’m sorry Chelsea but that’s funny hahaha 😊 Makes for good content so all isn’t lost hahahaha 😊

[@MaryBornforHealth]

Last year I freeze-dried squash and I love adding it to spaghetti sauce! My husband doesn't like eating squash so putting it in soups and spaghetti is a way I can get him to eat it. Thanks for sharing your day on the farm with us.

[@nancyrasmussen2016]

You could think of it like 2% milk, ha, ha. That's too bad it happened. Oh well, shrug it off. Nancy from nebraska

[@camicri4263]

Well, things happen! Great video! Have a blessed week Chelsea, Dan and kids 🙏❤️

[@shirleybenson4368]

Enjoyed your video!🌺

[@SJC49]

Sauce looks so good! Looking fwd to buying one of your cookbooks!

[@petpawteek8776]

Oh no, that milk😂😢😂😢 As we say here in the South, “Bless your ❤️”

[@aligurl100]

Thank you for sharing your homestead. I love watching these videos :) I can't wait until your cookbook comes out in hardcover, I will definitely be ordering one. I've heard that if you shred your zucchini and squash and then freeze dry them that it turns out really great for adding to sauces and such. That it reconstitutes really well. Just a thought for you since you have a freeze dryer :) Have a great day!

[@bryanblanton2046]

I wish I could be there, just for the work out! No, I want all of the goodies too...😂 That suck about your milk. But, you were so cool about it. 😊 If you don't mind me asking, how many acres do y'all have? My Dad asked and I told him I'd ask. Lol.

[@susancampbell7279]

It’s all good

[@jo-annjewett198]

The milk incident is something I would do!

[@lynsmith2698]

Omgoodness your cookbook looks awesome. I am so excited to get ordered when available. Great video. Thank you 🇨🇦🌷

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Thank you

[@524FrmGrl]

I can’t wait to purchase your cookbook for my daughter and I. We like actual book books.

[@sherriekemper1828]

The hard cover book is beautiful! You seem to have had a jam packed day, not sure how you can do so much. One question about your cattle: how old are the beef steers before they are ready to butcher? Thanks for spending time with us again.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Usually 2.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

You are an amazing lady Chelsea. I just love your videos.

[@christinaward161]

Hi Chelsea, thankyou for another lovely video, i love following your videos. I wanted to send love to you all after the loss of your nephew. I also wanted to say, if you get lots of UK orders for your book, id be happy to help distribute within the uk for you.x

[@kaybusby7507]

I was just wondering about your cookbooks and anxious to purchase them so I'll b e waiting for the word to order. Love watching the progress on the cabin. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and God's blessings.

[@andshedidbeckycrowther8503]

Oh no!!! The laughter ensues. ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@katheywhearley7953]

Another wonderful video. I wonder how you do everything you do. It’s pretty amazing. ❤

Made us laugh out loud.🤣

[@robingirven4570]

Yay! I’m hoping the sauce will be perfect. 😊

[@debbieb.8708]

I was wondering about that and was gonna say... you forgot to take the tube off.

I’m loving your videos and seeing how you do your chores

Pigs eat good today with all the milky water

[@KAStodgell]

Oh I am sorry. I feel bad. Glad you have other option. Smart on the shower idea. Everyone likes their own space. What if you saw a bear up by the pump?

[@LittleMountainRanch]

We pack bear spray usually.

[@susanclair8623]

Thank you so much for sharing. I love how the cabin is coming

[@lindamills9444]

Enjoyed the video, as always.

[@rosemarymunson915]

I said while you were doing it that ….the milk….the milk! 😅

The cabin is coming along great! ❤ from Ontario!

I can't wait for the cook book ❤

[@kittyrichards9915]

I could never video while cooking etc. I can't do that many things at once.

[@09echols]

I was just thinking that I would accidentally put soapy water into the milk. Nice to know I'm not the only one.

[@laurahudnall160]

At least you can laugh about it

[@jennleighwesson6089]

Have you moved the fridge or added another? Thanks for this wonderful chapter

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Moved for renos.

[@allisonhartley6712]

I wondered if you just poured up the milk off camera when you started cleaning the machine!

[@islawolf3997]

The spring box doesn’t freeze in the winter?

[@thehumblekinghomestead6452]

Quick Question. Where do you get your chicken fencing from? Thanks so much. Love your channel.

[@524FrmGrl]

You have had a lot of stress in the past month, it’s okay.

[@annelefevre9457]

What a blessing you didn’t have any squash available for the speghetti sauce . Ha be e squash on the side in a separate bowl…. Not in the sauce. What kind of sauce are you talking about? I love squash , just not in speghetti. I’ve had sauce over speghetti sauce. Guess it would be near the same thing!

[@Sylvie_M]

Hey Chelsea, why only R14 in the walls? R20 is recommended and will keep it cooler in the summer.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Our walls are 2x4 in the cabin and R20 is designed for 2x6 walls - we will likely do the R20 in the attic though.

[@Sylvie_M]

@@LittleMountainRanch My house in Edmonton has R20 in the walls and 2x4 construction. Interesting. I didn't know that. Great idea anyway.

[@jackieperkins8514]

Oh NO! At least you don't have to wait too long to get more milk.

[@jackieperkins8514]

A creek running through your property would be awesome!

[@mjplaza5506]

HI Chelsea, would you send me the info for the distributor in Canada for your milking machine please? Thank you

[@scotserve]

What is the cabin for.?

[@vickihill4777]

Have you ever checked how many steps you take I need a day? I bet it's a lot.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I haven’t, but I’m sure it’s plenty. Lol

[@tinabow3812]

What do you use for your dogs and cats for fleas and ticks.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Nothing. Hasn’t been an issue out here.

[@Gardeningchristine]

I was literally like did she just skip recording dumping the milk out? Nope bummer!

[@brikhouse22]

Do you not worry about any animals potentially getting at the chickens?

[@cynthiafisher9907]

They’re in an electric fence and there are livestock guardian dogs around.

[@joannfraser22]

How long does it take for mamma to get milk for baby if she's been milked? He looked hungry 😮

[@LittleMountainRanch]

He get’s lots of milk all day - he’s a beefy little dude.

[@brikhouse22]

Can you not filter the water right before it goes into the box to limit the silt?

[@LittleMountainRanch]

No, there’s too much and we would be forever having to clean it.

[@brikhouse22]

Well, you took that Ooops a lot better than I would. I would’ve been flipping out. Maybe there’s an advantage of videotaping the whole process. You have to behave yourself.😬
