WE MADE IT! | Settling In Together | First few days back on the property

After all the planning and the long journey to Las Vegas and back to pick up Country Road Cure & Convoy, we made it home! We spend the first few days setting up immediate "temp camp" and begin planning the permanent camp that we will call home while we build. Not everyone will be LIVING on the 41.36, only ‪@countryroadcure‬ and us. So during this madien voyage it is nice to have so many helping hands to make sure we can get off to a great start. Here's how our first few days went through Mel's eyes.

I am so jealous. I wish my family members would get together and make a family commune.

[@johnpiegzik298]

It’s said like this R-CAN-SAN.....ARKANSAN! Well that’s how I was told! You guys going to the Crocker meet up? That should be fun! Enjoy! John 😎👍

[@tazburnett6448]

In these times, I think the family property is the smartest thing any family could do. Homesteaders will be the only survivers. Great job. Congrats to the family.

[@Crazy_Garden_Lady]

So true!

[@greenbandit3132]

Y'all should consider shipping containers for storage I've got a 40 footer you'd be amazed how much stuff you can put in one especially if you put shelves in it and there water proof I've watched videos where people make houses barns and all kinds of stuff

[@CreeksideMaplesHomestead]

Looking good. Little by little. And it was great to see the kids on the teeter totter. You guys will settle into a routine and once you do things will get easier, smoother, and more efficient.

[@jgranados44]

So glad to see everyone made it safely 🙂! You will get everything done in time. It is awesome to see the whole family pulling together to get er done! God's Blessings to all!!!

What a great family! Mom is precious. I am so happy for everyone.

[@LadyJ5569]

What an awesome video. What a beautiful family. I can tell you how much it reminds me of what my family was like when I was growing up. We had many family camping trips just like you all gathering on the 41.36. So happy for you.

[@tmacmi9095]

That’s one huge tarp! Reminds me of the times we rednecked our campsites for the same reason. Keep in mind though, the bigger the tarp, the more wind can lift it from underneath. Looking forward to seeing how you all rig it up👍Also you may want to consider finding some pallets for the floor in the storage tents. Great job so far, love these vlogs ❤️

[@grandpaslakehouse-homestea6113]

Every time I watch one of your videos I end up online looking for RVs .Its looking great .

[@SandraCrockett]

Wow! Incredible how you all pitch in and get it done! Kudos to all of you!

You Arkians are Home now and I'm so glad for your wonderful family reunion celebration on your beautiful land. Check out Shepherds Chapel in northwest Arkansas, it is the first church on TV that got me hooked into Bible study and the hookness caries on and caries me through all things!!!

[@FREEDOMREDBIRD]

Just an idea, we take the solar lights and put one by ea stake and all around camp for nite time lights, works great as long as they get sunlight during day

[@davehalloween1684]

Few year back mosquitoes was really bad in our back yard and at cabin I spray with cutter.bug spray you attach to water hose. Now every year in spring when mosquitoes come out . I spraycutter in our back yard and cabin area . I think it make a difference.

[@MrJeffm66]

I see your mom has a And We Know t-shirt on. Love that channel until yt took him off. But I still listen to him on his website. Got to love it when family gets together like this.

[@lindafryer1097]

Awww, Booneville. Many years ago there was a TB sanatorium there. My parents were patients and met and married there.

[@karenredding9439]

👋👋👋👋Welcome to Arkansas! I'm not far from y'all, we are neighbors in the same county, Logan County, but I'm in Paris. I love yall's set up and thinking things through. I go over to Booneville Walmart to shop because our Walmart is small. I've been following your journey, and I knew you guys were going to be close by. ❤👋

[@ann-mariegrey9775]

we used a long wooden rod in the bottom of the doors and it was much easier to roll up for the daytime, our clearview garage in a box grew wonderful veggies all summer

[@StruggleandStrive]

Man yall have done a great job with camp! The kids look like they are loving it.

What the fuck, sorry kinda weird, hopefully you get the actual living quarter's going soon

[@SimpleLifeReclaimed]

Hahaha! Weird? How else do you suppose you live on raw land while and until your home is done being built?

[@monicag75]

The best family reunions are the ones camping!! Spent my childhood with yearly reunions at Lake Texhoma. Best memories ever. Cousins should grow up in the woods together!! They are making memories that’ll last a lifetime!!! 🙏❤️

[@myquerio5]

I have been following your channel for a while now, but never commenting until now .. this is perhaps my favorite video because, all of your family is together in a camp style setting and making the best of what you got. I know that it may not be the best living situation, but with everyone working together, the love out weighs it all. I have always wanted to go back to living off of the land without all of the modern technology (maybe some ... let's not go overboard) and the materialistic stuff. Just simple family camping for maybe a month or two is all it would take to make me happy ... Simple Life Reclaimed is enough for me. Stay Safe and enjoy the time with loved ones while it lasts.

[@lauriep.1362]

Kind of new here.....what is the 41.36 ? It doesnt look like a zip code or area code Great set up with the camp.

[@haroldronen9099]

41.36 acres

[@sandracurtis9911]

I was just watching CRC were they were digging a hole for the gray water. You can drain it into the ground just make sure it goes down hill away from camp. Put some small rocks over the hose at the end to keep it from getting moved and change places every once in a while. You guys should of had the crew that did the roads dig you a hole and dumped some rocks in the bottom to dump you black water in. There's videos on line that show how to do it.

[@sandracurtis9911]

Oh and leave the gray water tank open that way just a little at a time drains out instead a bunch at a time. It drains into to the ground better.

[@punkin4061]

So I am new to the channel... so I have a question is all of your family moving there on the land with yall? That would be amazing and really fun if so

[@SimpleLifeReclaimed]

Unfortunately no, they will not all be living on property. Our family of 5 will be living here with Country Road Cure's family of 3. The rest of the fam came to help with CRCs move and also just so we could all have a mini family reunion and they could see the place we ran away to. Great question! Welcome to the craziness!

[@burnindaylighthomestead2977]

What time is the live tonight.? Wished there was a way to let us know before y'alls videos come out. 💓

[@SimpleLifeReclaimed]

I'm sorry Carol, we were planning on going live today, but are going to have to do it tomorrow. Been a long night last night and crazy day today. I'll make a community post

[@julieivers7375]

Good idea with the large covering over the campers, will give you plenty of dry area. It must seem strange to the dogs, whole new environment, bet they're lookin for extra cuddles ♥️

[@AngelB77]

Looks like you all are getting alot done and having fun. Love the kids on the homemade tetter totter the look like they are having a blast. Great video once again.

[@TheWoodHaven]

1. That is one big tarp. 2. Every time I see Wyatt, I want to give him a glass of Ovaltine and a decoder ring. 3. Dawn is a looker for sure. 4. I forgot what 4 was...probably because of Dawn. 5. I always hate when your videos end. 6. Sad I had to cancel my OK trip.

I subscribed to you guys when you were at Jason Crocker's place. I have really enjoyed your channel and watching the progress. Although one small thing has bothered me and I want to help you fix it... You are now Arkansans (ar-can-sans) LOL! It cracks me up hearing all the struggles of pronouncing it! Keep putting those videos out. You have me hooked!

[@mpedmar9701]

Family reunion in Wal-Mart parking lot ! Love this great Big family adventure ❤ ! Thanks for sharing your journey with us ! This made me think of our family camping adventures ! Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you and your family.

[@jackrobinson6277]

Great camp.URGENT COMMENT, PLEASE NOTE. Im very concerned about the kids on the see saw. The young man on the left at 31,11, had his hands so close to getting fingers squashed . Please make something so the kids hands cannot go between the seat and the tree it is rocking on. Maybe some sort of handle on top of the seat so they are not wrapping fingers around the edge of the seat.

[@dolores34]

Know things have been hectic, after the meetup, sure the four of you will get er done, I just have to say, how great it is to see how available Gary always is to get it done. Look forward to the future progress on the 41.36.............Dolores
