Katie, I hope all the men in your life brag about your skill, craftsmanship, articulate narration, and beauty. Your work on your homestead is nothing short of fantastic. Congratulations for all you do.

[@mikebateman8021]

Yeah, I want you to learn how to use the Shaw Right so she doesn't hurt her soul

[@adriancofaru7299]

Very beautiful!

[@kevinwiley9696]

Simple gutters and downspouts will stop the water trough from forming and splashing up on the wood posts. It will also give you some rainwater catchment for watering the lawn/flowers.

[@sarahschlosser1203]

You two are great at the reuse, recycle and reclaiming item! So great to see when we live in such a throw away society today!

[@lynngreen4201]

Your camera angles and editing are really good Katie. Good work!!

[@user-pb7ii2de1k]

Greg and Katie you both are so blessed I completely remember that bus. You’re doing well for yourselves love all your builds

[@paullongstaff7344]

i would like to say how good your homestead is looking ,your doing a grand job

[@jackiesaylor2487]

With that huge roof you could get some giant rainwater catchment totes for each corner and have enough to pump into your cistern, or even build a secondary cistern near the barn as a backup water source. No more creek hauling..... wouldn't that be nice. (You should also do that with house roof to run into your cistern)

[@henryknight7876]

ya'll should add 12 ft. to the other side of existing building, and install barn door so you can get the tractor inside for bringing the heavy stuff inside. great job so far, Katie works like a man no job too small or big. you're a lucky man Greg.

[@LittleMaxx779]

Cordless power tools make life so much simpler. You guys are doing an awesome job.

[@carolfaberpeake857]

The siding looks great and glad you found all those free windows!!! Poor little chicks; I had no idea turkeys were so ruthless 😢

[@AlanaShuster]

Of all the channels I follow, I look forward to watching your channel the most. You guys rock!! Love from Montreal!!

[@1944chevytruck]

CUTE CHICKS!.... GOOD JOB!...... LOOKING GOOD U2!

[@jacksrbetter1870]

Greg, Katie, you guys are the hardest working people, you make a great team, I have watched you build a piece of paradise up there in the beautiful Canadian mountains for years, you guys rock. Saying hello from Florida USA. Thank you for sharing and taking us along.

[@TheJimcrooks800]

Great work on the barn. It looks fantastic so far. You do a phenomenal amount of work and are so good at reusing, repurposing. Well done on your team work also!

[@kaykinnan6560]

I really like the rustic look of the framing lumber with the blue siding lumber. Looks great and will be a great addition to your homestead. Thanks for sharing your lives with us,. God bless you both, today and always ! USA Kay

[@danielparker1808]

Doing a good job on your Barn love your videos

[@stewartwilkinsonsnr]

Katie and Greg, you both put in a long shift resulting in so much achieved. Glad the Chicks arrived but sad you lost three. You say some of the windows are old, but time you have finished they will look great. Hope you both enjoyed your meal. Love to you both xxxx ❤️💙 xxxx

[@SpaceForce2019]

Wow, with the walls/framing you can really see how big a space this will be. What a huge accomplishment and homestead addition. I wish I had Greg's carpentry skills, dang, and the two of you are such a team. Question: I saw a video a while ago where you were hiking your property with the dogs and goats, and the CAT was following you too. I was cracking up, does your cat do this often?

[@ld5714]

Hi Katie and Greg, great to see you again today. The transfomation of the building is happening quickly and it look great. It must be so nice to have a work space under cover and out of the elements now. The siding and window trim look great and you sure accomplished a lot. I'm glad the chicks arrived with minimal loss. I was glad to see the two shorter diagonal supports for lateral movement working around the window. That is exactly what I was thinking you should do; after watching the previous video, I got the impression you abondoned the idea of a window there because a longer top to bottom support would interfere with the window. Have a great week and be safe. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

[@MatthewYBarbo]

Man I wish I had half of the talent y'all do. Love watching the updates you do around your property. Really enjoyed watching the transformation. Keep up the great work!!

[@MrJerryKramer]

I wasn’t getting you post for some reason. So happy I saw your video and of course I started watching you again. Happy, Happy, Happy 😆

[@miichaelhickey]

I don’t comment often but I do enjoy your content and the Black Dog loves to watch all the animals. That 5 acres you bought really made such a huge difference

[@phuongvo3051]

You both are working hard couple , mill your own wood , build everything by your own hand , as I always said , there is a bright path to success, I’m so glad to see you deserve everything you have work so hard , ❤

[@richardrojas6306]

Greg & Katie, a marvelous job today. It's looking Great. One day, to be able to do chores underneath the barn without getting wet. Maybe you should consider an wall area (where you can frame for cables and clamps) where in the future you hang a solar panel or two for some night lights or even heat. Hoping you have a beautiful & safe upcoming week. Hugs from Santa Barbara 🤗😘🍷🌹😎👏🐐🐤🐣

[@chezj4]

What an awesome barn build! I love it.

[@NoneyoBisniss]

Not gonna lie. Jazz montage was cool. ❤️ Keep it up!!!

[@user-hc9tv6oq5h]

Put a sliding door up on the new old barn would be fantastic for getting tractor & things in & out of the barn

[@jeffgriffin7772]

Greg, Gutters and down spouts with 55 gallon plastic barrels to catch rain water would be nice. Also a treated staub in the middle of the 2x12 treated board with bowing out under pressure of the back fill.

[@fayreynolds]

Old followers, watching from Australia. Loving how happy you both look, especially Greg now that you have full time to work, with Katie, on your home. The new barn/shed is looking excellent! We also vote for the suggestion for you to put guttering and down pipes, leading into two large plastic water tanks, off the side of the shed. Just on the side with the new metal roofing. We put water catchment on everything with a large roof space here. The tanks might freeze in winter, but you could drain them prior to winter. It could provide invaluable fresh water over summer, to back up water supplies for yourselves, animals and garden.

[@donaldgarrison4313]

Great job guys cutting tree up into Lumber for farm ,!! Most .5 inch, z, & 12 inches by 12' !! Wow

[@carlahubbard7561]

Love the blue boards against the darker lumber! Thats a huge barn! You two amaze me, love your videos!

[@carolejohnston4005]

A good idea would be some guttering for rain catchment (as stated in other comments). You could use a couple of those big totes you have. Love seeing your progress on your home and barn. Regards from Scotland ❤

[@joelujan2978]

I think it's the first time I've ever heard Superwoman say she can't do something. I thought she could do anything she's so talented Greg has taught her so much. 6:28

[@cornnutzgazpacho-libre3555]

You guys should put rain catchment on that roof

[@user-jg7gw3wz7e]

Good job you both have a great day 😊

[@buddyreed2623]

Hello Katie and Greg. The grass seeds you put out are looking good. The barn is as well. If you need to put siding up where the Robin's nest is, maybe a hole saw will work. Have good days!

[@fancywear247]

Great job guys!

[@jackieanderson6599]

Omg you can catch the rain in barrels and filter to use... 🎉🎉 win win 🎉 looking good so far, as everything you've done so far... love the clear roof too natural light...hopefully baby chics are ok when they arrive... so enjoy watching, grass looking good...❤

There's nothing like Canadian engineering

[@andreasweiss4438]

Hello everyone. You are doing a really good job and are so hardworking. The walls look good. But I would have charred the first board on the walls that touches the floor with a torch so that it doesn't rot so quickly due to moisture. Best wishes from Germany. Andi

[@kristinaostrolucanin3249]

You two always finish a lot of work per video! Great job guys. If I am closer I would enjoy to come and help! 😁 Sadly, on another continent :( But! I enjoy in watching you and learning from you! 😊
