“Just listen…………………….”…. Love the silence, the view, the dream come true. . What an exciting delivery 🚚 . Can you not create a ‘strong spot’ on your roof right where you’re standing in this video to place a lounge chair and a small folding table to place your coffee/tea/beer/panini/book😍 . Love the 2” thick shelving. . Love the old propane lighting. It’s a great back up👍🏼 we had same lighting in our cottage when I was a child. . The pork sandwich has me drooling🤤 . Thank you for yet another glimpse of your life @Alone in Alaska💖

@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад

If anyone wanted to know a true “day in the life” up here, the video would sound like there was no audio except for the birds and the wind! Sometimes the only noise outside is me talking to a camera! 🤣Stepping outside is so peaceful! As for my roof, that exact area I was standing will all be pitched so the snow can slide off easier! That may be the last time I can stand up there for that view! So a balcony will be needed for sure now!😁 The propane lighting is nice and rustic looking. I have used Coleman lanterns and they seemed very loud! Very bright but loud. I wonder if these lights do the same thing? But I have to get over my fear of propane first 🤣 Thank you Susan!

@The-Ancestral-Cucina 2 года назад

@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I don’t recall the lights being noisy. Just a very faint hiss. Not at all noisy like a Coleman lantern. Ahh! A pitch in the roof. You had mentioned it and I forgot. Must be the view from up there that caused me to forget 😎

@chloecook4511 2 года назад

When I moved to my home in very rural Missouri my roof leaked badly. The roof over the loft bedroom leaked so bad that it was damaging the floor on the main level. On the main level I had 4 ply plastic stapled to various places in kitchen / dining room so that all of the leaks could drain into one 5 gallon bucket. I had to sell off 15 acres to afford a steel roof. I have been here 43 years and it is still going strong. Hope you have good luck with your new roof and that it gets done quickly. Contractors can be iffy. Have been to Alaska and it was beautiful but very expensive to live there. Enjoyed your video.

yummy sandwich . I pray your contractor is good and honest . As a contractor myself I have seen some nightmares .

@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад

Trust me! I worried about that too! My roofing contractor has won some awards and has been in the business for awhile. He had good reviews too. Great pictures on some of the crazy stuff he has worked on so he knows a lot about roofing and construction. Even after I paid that first 1/3, I was worried but he kept in contact and actually showed up when he said he would! 😳I guess in Alaska, if you get a bad rap, you’re basically done.Mostly word of mouth advertising. I do like that he is all about the work being professional. Not one of the bragging types. BUT we will see how it goes! Thank you Steve! 😆

I really admire you! Living off grid in Alaska. And I just love your dog Kenai; he seem's like such a sweetheart.

I live in Tacoma, Washington, where I was born and raised, and I have never liked it here. But, at 68 years old, and very low income, I don't think I will ever be able to leave here.....unless a miracle happens. It is wonderful to see a young lady like you being able to live your dream. God bless you dear.

@leem200 2 года назад

You should use bungie cord of some type to secure the things like jars on the shelves. I was in San Fransico Quake and trust me, better safe than sorry. Love the cabin and the views are beautiful. Love things you cook. I lived 15 minutes as the crow flies from center of quake. We could barely walk, and even drawers opened. Only lasted a few seconds but walls moved even on foundation and cracked. My friend house split in half. Her fireplace was no longer. They were able to fix it accept the fireplace. My place they did not do anything just left it like it was. Windows broke too. I had a few that cracked and was replaced. For your safety and cost put some kind of cording up. Or wood. Just think the bungie type of cord or short netting might be cheaper and easier to work with. If you do not it will be a big mess. Remember you have aftershocks some almost as strong as the big quake. Also, run risk of the big one being a pre-quake. Peace! Hope I do not sound bossy but have been through allot of earthquakes. I learned to secure everything. I used puddy for nic nac type stuff. We bolted water heater because it also busted in one, I was in. Flooded my whole house. You do not pick when they hit or where you are at. So better safe for a few dollars.

@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад

Alaska get more earthquakes than any other state! I definitely worry about them! Bungee cords will be installed this summer 100% guaranteed! When I have my root cellar shelved out, they will have bungees or a wood lip and the shelves will be attached to the ceiling. Oh and the earthquake putty for sure! I am going to put bells in the corners of my cabin as well. Sometimes I don't know if we are having an earthquake or I just didn't get enough sleep! LOL! Hey I don't think you sound bossy at all! You lived it! I thank you deeply for your advise! :-) Thank you so much Lee! :-)

You have a great Companion/Mate there in your Dog. This is Autumn here Down Under(17/5/2022) and our temps are dropping, today has only been 17oC and I am getting toey because winter is about 6 weeks away when temps will be a most uncomfortable ave of 14oC with nights touching ZERO ... That is when my sheets get Magnatised. And no I am not spelling words wrong, rather being born in the U.K. English is my first language so I do not speak American English ie the Black thing round a Wheel is a Tyre - Tire is fatigue. Once the Winter is over our temps start rising so by Christmas it can be +40oC which is when I get going and I am 86 and dangerous. Ha Ha Keep Happy

Awesome video! Loved it. Yes, there are earthquakes there, mainly smaller ones that occur daily, 24/7 - but not so much that you'll feel them and some large ones that do occur anywhere from once a year to every couple of years or so - that you will definitely feel, that will shake your shelves and house pretty good. Might consider putting a inch or two wood spill railing on your pantry shelving? I've been there when the large quakes have hit, ground level is not too bad, upper levels can be pretty scary, but they don't last but 30 + or so seconds. But its possible that you might be in a area less affected? Will try that sandwich- it looks delicious! Best wishes, always.

@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад

I watch the earthquake tracker website and can see all the quakes that happen here daily. Absolutely amazing. When I have heard other RU-vidrs taking about feeling some quakes, I can see them on the tracker but I have yet to feel any. (Maybe) There have been a time or two that it looked like things were shaking but that could have just been a lack of sleep! 🤣 I know the area I am in felt the 1964 earthquake but I don't think it caused any damage here. Thank you so much Charlotte! 🧡

Hello Lynda! All the way from Australia! No that's about as far away from Alaska as you can get I think! :-) You have only seen snow once? WOW! You want some? I have plenty. :-) Living in Colorado I saw snow all the time. Living in Alaska, I saw more snow this past winter than I had my entire LIFE in Colorado (slight exaggeration) :-) I honestly could get off the plane in Australia and just melt. You have heat in Australia that should be called something other than heat! I am definitely a cold weather gal! Well its awesome to have you along for my adventures here!

Its nice seeing the lumber start arriving for your project but it will be even better watching the piles disappear becouse that means the work is getting done and finally you'll have a solid roof over your head. I couldn't imagine building right now with the prices what they are but It needs to be done. Good luck I pray it goes smooth for you.

I’d say about 1/3 of the projects I wanted to get done had to be put on the back burner because of lumber prices and fuel. 🤨I do have to pay his fuel to run to the dump, drive to my property and back home on the weekends! And he drives a huge Ford F-350 or something like that. It is what it is and no point complaining! But a new roof was mandatory before winter. This past winter was kind of scary at times!

I noticed that when you were putting the food on the coals in the stove, that the glass on your fire view stove is soot/smoke covered. I was taught by my oldest brother if I want to get the glass cleaned up, to use newspaper dipped in water and then cover it with ash from the stove and then scrub the glass until the wet ash dries quite a bit and there's no smeer from the ash on the clear glass. It takes some muscles and patience but the end result is very clean glass . The foods you cook look delicious 😋😍👌 thank you 😊. Yummy 😋

@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад

I tried that cool trick but maybe I didn't let it sit long enough. It seems to me that something else may have been used to clean the glass at one time maybe and it distorted the color a bit. I will try it again but I also like that it is a little covered so it doesn't brighten up the cabin so much at night. When I am trying to sleep! 🤣 The sandwich is amazing! My favorite sandwich!

@AloneinRemoteAlaska 2 года назад

Ahh well thank you kindly young Padawan! Wealthy? No. I wish! But remember I had to sell my house in Colorado to buy this property and I also knew to save enough to get a new roof. Many of the additional projects that are being done had to be paid as they were completed. It is a struggle to pay for everything and still plan for the firewood delivery and the 1-2 big grocery hauls I will need to do to get ready for winter. All of this so far has been based on necessity mostly. The cabin roof would not have survived another winter. Stronger front door in case of bears. And of course the firewood and food. All the other projects will get done based on necessity and I predict this will all take a 3-5 years to complete. Unless my RU-vid channel explodes! LOL! Thank you so much!

@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Breathing room is always good! Funny! We use propane at the cabin, at home at our base camp house and in the RVs. I didn't grow up using it, but I sure love it now! I have a propane stove in all our 'homes'. At our on-grid home base, the power goes out quite often as we are still out in the boonies. It's nice to still be able to cook when that happens. The propane lights just take getting used to, I think. I also use coal oil lamps at the cabin, but more for that cozy feeling. Not easy to read by. They give the same sort of light as candles, but I have a very silly cat that has already burnt her one set of eye brows off chasing little bugs attracted to the candle flame., so I only burn candles that are in jars now.
