Winter is Coming

[@wolmntn]

I had a yellow lab for 14 years. Tore me up when I lost him. He was like Cali, went everywhere with me and no matter what I was doing he was there. I would talk to him like a human and I think he understood everything I said. It has been 10 years and I still miss that dog. Best friend I ever had.

[@pirie555]

I can relate.. I lost my Golden Male 2 yrs ago , he was 9 .. He will be my last dog

Cali can be a winner at any dog show...just because of her plume tail...always wagging and eager to retrieve..just sayin...:)

Shawn, another great video. Again, dumping rocks in the wagon, throwing Cali's chase toy, kicking the wagon handle up and catching it. Just like a dance. I can't take my eyes off the things you accomplish in a day. Thanks for always taking the time to include us. Bless you! Rock on!

[@dennisdavis8649]

I don't mind watching you doing your chores around the cabin. You don't have to shut your video down just because you aren't in front of the camera all of the time. Just looking at the beautiful fall colors is enough for me.

My god Shawn, I am suscriber since you was a 30k youtube channel and you start to build your main cabin, and now 1M!! This is my favourite channel to relax myself, dreaming I am there with you.

I’ve been watching you, I’m so jealous, I’m a 65 yrs old woman who would love to do what you’ve done, you are brilliant and love your dog she is gorgeous, thank you for sharing

[@foxtrap8826]

Wow! I'm an older geezer now, but 60 years ago, I lived in a cabin in the woods of Maine. No anything for comfort, miles from anywhere. A bath meant chopping a hole in the ice of the lake. Trapped, fished & hunted for food. It was pretty tough at times, but I never felt better in my life. Winter mornings sometimes greeted me with -35 below. Inside. I don't regret it all. I think it strengthened me for the real world I eventually faced. So this vid brings back fond memories. Thanks.

[@ksingleton101]

For a second I thought I could smell the leaves! Love this time of the year.

It enrages me when an infantile politician claims Canada is a post-national state with no core identity, but your channel shows the values of Canada - True. North. Strong. Free!

[@graphguy]

strong and free? Trudeau would have you sent to rehabilitation camp for talking like that.

[@nunyabinis]

You're comparing apples to oranges. Trudeau was speaking of immigrants, as in Canada is a place where respect for minorities trumps any one group’s way of doing things.

[@ScoutBobrman862]

You're a hard working man James!! Sustainability is definitely not convenience! You have to work for it. I can imagine how life was exactly this way in the 1600's, when the first colonial settlers arrived to north America. No Walmarts, Home Depots, Supermarkets. To eat, we all must work from the sweat of our brow! I'm sure your viewers see how it is to get up at the crack of dawn, prepare everything, hike up a mountain, to film the fog and sun light coming over the horizon. Then trudge your way back to start another sweaty day, splitting wood, hammering nails, do repair work by replacing rotted out wood, preparing meals, and being ambidextrous enough to even play throw-fetch with the dog throughout the day. People just don't understand what it takes to be successful in life. Awesome work as always brother! Blessings and Peace!

For 30 odd years, they've been the best company I've kept and let me say, as a youngster, I was a wild one!! No child's energy should be contained or restrained as problems follow.
