Father and son team rush to get the roof covered on their hand-built log cabin before the snow arrives. After installing the ridgepole, their next big task was to get the purlins and rafters on.

That tractor cranked (25:12), and then that mini blizzard, well this old southern man (Alabama) nearly froze to death just watching. Watching you and your dad skate along those icy snow covered logs and ladders was high anxiety for me. What a relief to see that tarp go on. That must have been a very emotional moment. Thank you so very much for the extra efforts you make to record the incredible beauty around your cabin. You’re the best.

But your application of some of the most old of Egyptian era principles of levers, pulleys and leverage is fantastic. Wish all of our modern youth could see what you are doing. Very inspiring.

You mirrored my thoughts exactly - even to the sound effect of the moaning wind in the drone shots way overhead - that added that little bit of extra effort that made the scene work all that much better... very much a professional production shot end edited with care that's really appreciated by us viewers. Those beams of sunlight - the snow blowing off the boughs - the shots on the back of the logs being towed back towards the cabin... a real treat for us - for me!
