In this video I take a break from books and just show a bit of yardwork that I needed to get done. I was going to use the footage for a book related video but didn't see how it would work. So I just take you along on what I did this Saturday. Nothing great but if you are interested have at it and enjoy. :)

You truly live in paradise. I honestly thought you were 30. I am 39 and my wife is 53 sharing the best years of our lives and worm farming at home growing food. Also dreams to own acerage and build paradise.

Yes I'm blessed with this property for sure... Funny if I ever show my face most people will agree with you that I might be closer to 30's than 50's. LOL I've always looked younger than my actual age. I used to hate it when I was in my 20's with a family as I looked like I was 14 with kids. LOL That is awesome that you guys grow your own food... might want to do a video on this? I always enjoy seeing other peoples life outside of books.

I enjoy seeing a person's yard after getting to know them as Booktubers, and you have an incredible and expansive yard! You have lots of work to do to take care of it. I appreciated seeing the burn pile because I've got a similar burn pile in the back yard... and I've been putting off the event. The pastor wanted to help me do that but his free time is limited because he works all the time for this town.

Why thank you... now you know why I enjoyed your video so much... I love watching booktubers doing things non-bookish. It's a way to get to know them better... oh and yes please wait for assistance on that fire. LOL those things can get out of control in a hurry. I'm going to mention how your pastor helps with yard work and see if I can't guilt mine into helping me. :) Love that idea... He did offer to buy me breakfast today after Bible study... I think he is just trying to get me to go to the study. LOL Ok... have a wonderful day!

This was great! I think it looks amazing with all those little winding pathways and looks like a nice place to take a walk in the morning or evening. It’s so nice that you’re able to take care of your property like that. Love the little pet graveyard lol. We have two guinea pigs graves in our garden too, RIP 🙏🏻 lol.

Yeah live in the country affords us the luxury of being about to have pet cemeteries LOL I just wonder if we remove the markers when we sell. LOL I have to say... guinea pigs are much easier to bury than a full grown horse... ugh... That was a sad day... but anyways... yes the property is amazing... I've done videos walking it a few times... Gotta love NY :) well the views anyways... LOL

I enjoyed the video. It's interesting to see how people have other interests besides books. I know that down here, Deep South, land owners outside the City limits will have land burns, where they set fire to their crop field and tree stands to burn off the underbrush. My wife's Uncle did exactly what you just showed. He would have a huge bonfire once a year. I gave up doing my own yardwork years ago due to my age. Anyway, nice video. I enjoyed it. -James

Thanks James! I wonder at what point I will give it up. :) All I keep thinking is I'm doing this and when we sell someone is going to say... there is no way I'm maintaining this property... that guy must have been nuts. :) They would be right too. Thanks for watching my friend.

Thank you... I absolutely love it... I thank God all the time for it... Also I did not forget the PO Box thing... I had to finish 3 jobs for my work then I had to do a complete brake job on my truck which lead me to realize I needed to go back out and get a brake caliper as the old one was bad. I didn't finish the brakes till 8:30 last night... but I will get there today and be back later to give you the address...

My grandson found out I pay someone to mow my lawn. Now I'm the disappinting grandpa. "Don't you have a weedeater or something?". Then I bought a leafblower, and now I'm back in his good graces since he can use it. I lived on a farm for 4 years and had to mow a few acres and quickly started a dislike for mowing. But if I had a zero-turn then things might have been different.....
@FacelessBookReviews
@FacelessBookReviews Ай бұрын
Hey if all it took was a leafblower to win his good graces again I think you're in good shape... I enjoy mowing... for now anyways and yes if you had a zero turn you would have enjoyed it more for sure... They are a blast... the first time I used one was hilarious... I pushed both levers forward a little.. started going to the left... pushed the left a little further... now I'm going a little to the right... well needless to say it took this Polack going full speed to realize I didn't always have to add speed to one side or the other... I could also decrease the speed to achieve the same thing... LOL I was flying around the yard thinking... how in the world am I ever going to control this thing. LOL Now I'm doing it one handed while having a drink or using the phone... ahhh the good ole day... 🤣

@FacelessBookReviews Sounds fun. I used to mow for a guy who had back surgery. Learning a zero turn wasn't fun. I accidently ran over one of his maple tree samplings. Just a momentary lapse in forward back push pull...."what direction was I going?" and the tree is toast. He forgave me.

You have beautiful property! That’s pretty much how I spent my Saturday too. We FINALLY had a beautiful day where the wind wasn’t crazy to be able to burn(on a smaller scale).

I also have to reside it this year at some point as well.. That I don't mind... I enjoy that... What we have fixed looks nice but there is still a handful of rooms that need to still be done.. it's a 3700 sq. foot house so that doesn't help... make since... all the kids get to the age where they move out and we buy a bigger house for 2... ugh LOL
