BUILDING ON TO THE FRONT OF OUR HOME

While we wait for materials to arrive to complete the overhang and railing on the deck we are moving on to the final portion of our home that needs to be built on to- the front entry way. Today we are going from "nothing" to the beginning of a front porch. In a few short weeks then exterior will be completely finished!
Shop Our Apparel: www.bunkerbranding.com/pages/...
We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while building our own debt free, off-grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.
Our house build is documented entirely on our main channel "Wild Wonderful Off-Grid" and our family life vlogs can be found on our secondary channel "Wild Wonderful After Show"

@@d.o.t.collector4728 they say it helps prevent rot and general deterioration without the need of chemicals. Doesn't seem to be much proof to substantiate that claim though. Other than that, it's just a good way to get light soft woods to look like darker hard woods.

Move that condensing unit out from under the deck. If you ever have to change out the condenser fan motor, you’re going to have a very, very difficult time. Not to mention the deck is going to trap the heat and recirculate it back through the condensing unit. To put it another way, your air conditioner isn’t going to work too good and you’ll prematurely kill the compressor.

I believe that wholeheartedly all 6 of my children are grown now and living lives of their own. I have nine amazing grandbabies now and they are growing like weeds. I thought that my children grew up fast but watching my grandchildren grow just put what she said into perspective. Enjoy every minute because before you know it they'll be leaving the nest.
