I built a 200 Sq foot cabin just outside West Yellowstone with no power and the winters were getting a bit harsh, so I tried this little stove. It's diminutive size was perfect for the small space in the small shed/cabin and I was able to set it about 3 feet in the air after building a little stand so it's much easier to continue stoking. Little logs need lots of attention especially in sub zero temps, but this little guy does the job and is worth checking out for your small space.. I am NOT sponsored in any way with the company..Just like the product

Who knew building a greenhouse would add to the Christmas charm

Inside to be worked on next

If you ever wanted to see what happens behind the scenes in a contentious White House debate, this will blow your mind. Or maybe for those who already understand this prove to the daughters, who these people really are. #dcswamp. #J6 #j6coberup

I have been spending the past few years listening, hoping and wondering when our country will act and restore baseline justice.. No more waiting for me and a few Jan 6, the so called insurrection. (I've never in history ever seen or read about an insurrection when not one person is armed) in fact, the only guns were used against the protestors. RIP Ashli After a while I felt like I could do more. I finally got a chance not only listen or talk truth tho those wiling to listen, but put some real energy into doing something about it. So together with US Army (RET) Paul Vallely, are launching operation Jericho. The team behind Cowboy Logic , Don and Donna were able to secure phone time from the inside of the detention center in DC with several of the political prisoners. their stories will be heard. In short, I am adding a short trailer to introduce a longer 30 minute video that details these issues our country is dealing with that is being held from most of us. Say what you will about each person arrested, but in this country, there is supposed to be due process. The 6th amendment in particular is under attack and the evidence is abundant and clear when it comes to the detainees. Most of these people are vets and served this country with pride. Just like you and I would want, they deserve to be heard, under oath in front of congress and the entire world. Then, and only then should we ever considering judging them click for a 4 minute intro (I'll try to get the longer version up in a a day or two) thank you!

Best thing I ever did was build a small 200 sq. foot casita/cabin ( I basically copied the idea of tough sheds and added twice the amount of joist for the snow load up here If I listened to everyone I would never had started much less finish it. The freedom I get for now there, offsets the lack of freedom I feel now in the US . In my years, I have never felt the pressing down on society from our elected leaders to this extreme. Now I have a place to unwind and listen to the sounds of life not dictated by all the things out of my control. It's not fancy, but my heart rate drops several beats per minute the second I step on this land and a sense of calm coats every raw nerve with a little blankets that I swear have the middle finger embroidered on each on telling the rest of the World to just F-Off (for a while)

Training horses is a full time job. Testing out a VR 360 degree camera at the ranch. Thankfully the horses didn’t trample my camera #VR #goprofusion

Chance died of cancer a few years back, but was one of my favorites at the Wolf Connection..Think i identified with him due to his goofiness..Guess we were kindred spirits

..just not ready quite yet to let winter go...

Another great year and one I've planned for most of my life

A lot has gone on over the past 4 months. I think everyone can relate to that. Left a home of more than 20 years to be closer to nature along with my little humble off-grid place. And I have neglected to anything but work on the new place, which needs it desperately. I got a few text asking when I was going to post something from a few of the kids who follow the site a while back and thought I would put together a quick update and some random thoughts about the year that many are wishing ever happened. Not wanting to preach or assume my way is the way to go, I'd rather just say what works for me individually and if it makes sense to you , then I am humbled by that. Life is or can be a real **** and it gets to us all at one time or another. It's how we go about problem solving the issues as they come that intrigues me. I am in a place that fire wood is essential. It may grow on trees, but the work to harvest it are the lessons that I am eluding to here.. Once I get the new place more settled and livable, most likely sometime in January, I look forward to constructing a more cohesive and professional looking vlog and possibly getting back to the painting again (fine art, that is) *and oh yeah, no live trees were harmed in this video..They are all either standing dead, fallen or taken taken down by beavers.:)

got a late start, but its way overdue to begin decorating for my favorite time of year.

My pooch loves stuffed animals of all kinds .. It does not matter how big or little or even where he finds them.. here is a few of them from a couple of his walks, where he finds them all over..mostly on trash day though When he gets them home, he will p[lay with them for months..He has a few favorites we actually sew back together when a body part is in danger of falling off.. the shit we do for our pals.

every once in a while we get a nice break in the weather and make sure not to miss it..

With Henry's Lake being safe enough to hike out on, i could not resist getting the unique view back at the cabin and enjoy the amazing sunset Thanksgiving diner is waiting for me and a fire is roaring. Life is amazing #lifeisgood

but I have been planning for something like this a long time

Our guest actually gets stuck momentarily under my secondary water line until it wiggles free love my dog for just sitting there behaving
