Homeowner cutting trees on the Homestead - PLUS - family time in the forest 

The tree base should make some beautiful furniture. Cool waterfalls. Plus you’ll always know where you can find 2 valve stems

One of the benefits of being a RU-vid presenter is the education you get in using safety gear. Especially if you use it.

Thanks for wearing pants under the chaps Captain

The road is looking a lot better! You are getting super good at flying the drone! Thanks for video!

Glad you found a tree older than me.

Good video, Kleeman, family and nature, good times. Nice shots of the barge also.

Everyone please stay healthy and stay safe.

Captain Kleeman,....the woods are like heaven....I grew up camping & hiking in the woods all over America. Nothin like it.....my best memories....I swam in Lake Meade when I was 6 years old.

Great looking Family Captain

That cookie you tried to get at least shows the wood is still solid and certainly worth cutting into slabs for future projects. Nice dark wood that will look great for many things plus it’s a big log.

Like the new chaps.

Great job Captain

Look like this, you have many valve stems in the tire, if you need one. That road becomes beautiful and curvy just like old roads were.

As always another nice vid. Stay safe my friend.

Nice to have that so close.

You should start stacking all the wood your cutting down in stack where the tree is and letting it dry. Then when you get your cabin built you will have plenty of firewood for an outdoor fire pit. I just wanted to say you seem like a great dad, always making time for the family.

Lookin good Capt, the road is coming along

It'd be awesome if you had one of those waterfalls on your property Captain 👍

Being a homeowner is pretty big. To own one's home is to know that no one can decide how I do at home, except the wife. I own my fourth house now. The first house I gave away, the second I sold, the third I also gave away. I'll keep this house.

When I was a kid. I sat on the bank of the Mississippi River watching barges go by. They sat so low in the water. I always wondered how they didn't sink with water coming over the bow

Starting to come together Pepper! lol

Awesome video Capt

There is no reason not to craft a few tables from the carcass. Epoxy may be required to stablize the area but that is part of the adventure. Slab it. Set it aside. Looking for 10% or less moisture and all bark removed. Thanks for the video captain sir.

Another wonderful video. Your wife was drinking a bottle of pop or soda so I think your daughter was right to ask about snacks. I would have too. Your ditches are looking good along the road.

Ahoy Captain great video

Pretty nice country.70+ .We hit 55 once so far April 17.We won’t hit 70 until end of May.Enjoy your videos.cKeep them coming.

Another great advantage with the beautiful wife and kiddos and great memories. Been telling some friends that this covid 19 diet is working im gaining instead of losing weight its alot like the see food diet you see it and you eat it but since the weather is getting nicer out i will be getting alot of thing's done outside around the house as well as a few things in my woodshop. Keep up the great videos

Ok, Bro. So, I was in the cancer center today for an appointment. I asked my doc why the center is open when all the other clinics in the hospital are doing telemedicine. She look at me and said something like "Cancer outranks Covid" I thought it was hilarious!

Some more great footage captain. We had to wear the chainsaw pants at work. no chaps allowed. And they are freaking hot. Your better off doing your backcut a little higher above the birch. Cutting below it can get you in trouble. Good work stay safe and enjoy the outdoors 🌲

Another well presentation, you always brighten my day.👍👍🇬🇧

Good video as always nice champs

I see brand new chaps- very nice- now- when ya get the saw out - get them out too - very nice,!!!

My brothers a huge rockhounds. Hed love to go to that place and look for fossils. Our house is filled with rocks and fossils from everywhere around the world

Enjoy the vids and look forward to the road progression. If you come across one, pick up a valve stem tool. Use to pull stem through, not fall in or whatever.

Nice vid. The place with the water falls is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing with us!

Good to see your project and progress. The barge shots are phenomenal. It's amazing to me the volume of material that is transported via waterways. Here in California we do move rice down the Sacramento to the bay but highway transport is right up there too. Keep up the good work and humor Cap!!

WOW Captain Kleeman....you live in some really spectacular land. That river has so much rich history. I'd be water skiing, jet skiing, boating, fishing, picnicking, grilling, camping, or just taking a nice hike along that land and the river. I drove to a family reunion up to Ohio and after traveling thru West Virginia the first thing I noticed was the beautiful forestry in Ohio and how nice the land was. The beauty of that part of the country just jumps out at me. Cannot deny that land is special. Made me apprecìate the Ohio area and I never forgot how wonderful that part of the country truly is spectacular.

That's an amazing shot of that barge.. crazy how low it rises with that load of gravel

The chirt comes from a “local gentleman’s property”. Does Logger Wade know you swear at him like that? 🤣😂

Do you see the value of a gas powered compressor mounted in the back of the truck now? A good thing to do when looking to improve the value of the land is to look into picking up some ginseng seeds to plant in the fall along with looking into changing the mixture of trees over the next 10-20 years. Ginseng has a 5-10 year maturing time so in a few years you can start moving around and harvest as it becomes ready for a cash crop to grow with the trees. A nursery for trees up near the house where you can keep saplings watered till they get to 5 gallon pot/bucket sized will let you plant a mix of higher value trees you can transplant into the woods as you clean them up/thin them so you can change the makeup of the forest without ever leaving a bare area.

Captain Kleeman, you look like one of those NASCAR drivers in those chaps.

Nice looking road there Captain! (No joke ;-) )

Good progress on road, ever use a 3 point landscape rake? i have used a back blade for many years, however after I got a rake couple years ago now it is my favorite tool. The farm I bought in 2010 needed a lot of cleanup. I leave The brush piles for the small critters. I also established an area about an acre where I just left it as is. No one including me is allowed to enter, ever. It is a sanctuary for the larger animals. I now have a nice heard of deer and large flock of turkeys.

Look at that nice barge loaded with all of that nice looking sand!

Be honest Kleeman, Logger Wade a body double, right? Lol Kleeman cranking it up out here! Great job bud

Hope all is going well there Capt! Thought you was sprinting for the Combat Challenge there in them chaps, when you took off. Cherish all that time that you get to spend with your awesome family! Time goes by so fast that you can't keep up, and then its hard to regain them memories..... Got to head out for my now daily radiation treatment, but let me leave you with this HAPPY thought, It was a grand alignment of the stars when I got to meet up with y'all in Vegas! I think back back at that and it lightens my day, and makes me smile! Even thinking of y'all trying to keep Logger Wade out of trouble! like thats gonna happen! I think a lot of y'all! stay safe, Keith

Yeah dad, you WILL learn to take snacks with you!!! LOL Love the memories you will make.

That cookie could make a nice tray table, clock or outdoor thermometer frame.

Now that's some commerce movin down the Ohio River.....Just nice!

Older kid sounds like her grandpa when it comes to snacks.

Let's get to 10k subs Captain. So close!!!

More hot JD755 action! I like how that pulverizer seems to work. I don't like a 3pt mounted grader box that much but that thing you'be got seems to work well. I have a goal of building a pull type grader box for my 755 like I have for my little 318 garden tractors and think it would work well for this kinda stuff. Have you any implements on your wish list for the 755?

The road is looking great. I can’t wait as the project moves forward an see what you do. 👍. Nicely done Cap.

That was awesome vidlage of the river , captain , “ America! “

Cap’n... about those chaps. They are great for cutting wood in briar patches... so, I thought, they’d also be good for rabbit hunting in briar patches. Cold morning (10f), 4” of new fallen snow and 40acres of the thickest blackberry, cat brier and raspberry brambles you’ll ever see we’re calling me to hunt. So, the beagle and I got out just after sun up. Normally I would have worn my insulated coveralls... but, nope... I had chaps to protect my legs. I brought along my .22 because I knew the bunnies would be sitting tight. About half an hour in, the beagle flushes the first one. It turned left, the dog went straight. So, I followed the tracks deep into the briars, proud of the fact that the chaps made me immune to brambles. About 20ft in, the cottontail sits. I step over a fierce cat briar and into a raspberry bush. As I pull up to shoot, the beagle jumps a rabbit. I shoot as the dog chases the other rabbit around behind me. You know Cap’n, I’d never shot two rabbits within a minute... and I’d never hit one on the run with my .22.... but for some reason, I thought I could. So, disregarding my surroundings I wheeled around to shoot. Well sir, when I did, that cat brier grabbed ahold of the back of my calves like a shark grabs a seal. My torso kept turning with the momentum of my .22 rifle and arms. But, my legs didn’t. Fortunately, the snow broke my fall... unfortunately the face full of briars and the thousand needles in the back of my legs did not allow me to appreciate that fact. I learned three things that day: 1. I’ve never taken two rabbits within a minute. 2. I’ve never killed a bunny on the run using a .22. 3. Chaps only work one way... forward. So my advice to you Cap’n is... don’t put them on backwards.

Have a idea cut up fire wood to pay for gravel on your driveway

Making good progress with the woodland management.

Wow. What a beautiful place! Love the waterfalls.

Red Oak

Nothing against logger Wade, but should also check out bucking Billy. Very nice guy, respectable videos.

Good video👍🏼 Sound funny when americans pronounce Husqvarna 😊 (Husqvarna was founded 1689 in Sweden) 🇸🇪

It worked the valve stem repair I believe it will come back and get you later it needs to be a larger diameter valve stem you will have to brake the bead to install Keep up the good work

Snacks are important, I understand her concern. I don't have any funny stories, I'm still working thru this. I do have some photos of places I've been while hauling to job sites over on Instagram.

Great vidja Kleeman, lot of work there keep rolling, if you got that yotuube yacht done before meet great I'll rent for the weekend if this virus go's away!!

I gotta do some road building....thx for sharing all this! Love it!

Captain love the valve stem trick!!!!!!!! is there going to be a test at the end of the video,,,,,, because I got to see it about three more times,,,,,, thanks for the trick stay safe,,,, be careful by the way like the chaps and you got yourself or with you all the time junkmando

Is there a chance of seeing how the gravel and stuff get's unloaded off the barge? Did a good job on the road,

Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Canadian Natl. Park, Sequoias

You could make some really lovely outdoor 'rustic' furniture with some of that timber! You have a beautiful family, please give them my warmest regards! Stay safe, in all manners of the term! :-)

No complaint, just a correction. Q in Husqvarna is pronounced as a K. I have mentioned it to many loggers, including cotontop3 and logger wade. I live in sweden, that is why I know.

Hey Captain, What about the Civil War Memorial Grave near Magnet, In. What I read, although a short write up, was a horrible wreck on the river.

the moment you run for the chicken throwing the helmet look like your firefighter training kick in and ready for action ! :) that little attachment in the back of your tractor is making a great job. it is bought or home made ? thx for the video, lots of time and efort involved.

Dad 🙆 we always have snacks on ' field trips ' But guess it's been a looooong time since you've been on one 😆 Anyhow stay safe👍

You and Dirt Perfect live in some really nice territory.....Ohio River? Not far from Indy? The Great Lakes? Beautiful country. GOD'S country.

Add 10 barge loads of sand, and 5 barge loads of portland cement, how many yards of concrete would that make?

Great technique , your chain needs sharpening, BAD. The waterfalls are great. I was wondering if they were spring fed or runoff. WHat y'all are doing with the girls, teaching them, my grandfather did this for me in the Smokie Mtns as we hiked.

What kind of drone do you have its so clear thanks captain. Love the drone footage

I cut them dead red oaks all the time, make beautiful slabs,$$

when i was in school, math was never my favorite subject and barge counting was definitely not a topic in my math classes. But when you said 15 barges in tow, I paid attention and I counted them - and I came up with 12. So I rewind the video and count them again, still 12. Now I am not sure if my math is still at the level it was back then in school - fail grade - but I think 3 x 4 is 12 .... or were there three invisible barges in that tow only an experienced homeowner with chainsaw and Huquarna chaps can see? hmmm.

You're starting to get more daring flying that drone around the Towboats and barges hope you don't crash it anytime soon?

Hey Capt. I must say I like the mix of different things you do in your video's. Not that I look forward to the river and barge shot's. Glad to see you wearing chaps. Now get some gloves on to protect your hands ! Don't you protective wear gloves as a fireman ?? LOL

Great vid buddy . Enjoyed . Beautiful family. Have any idea how many men ( or women I guess ) does it take to man the river boats ? Thanks for showing.

milling job for logger wade ??? offer him a dozen bevvies

You keep speaking of a home owner out cutting trees or doing other thing,were is the home owner you speck of. I have see a lumberjack,a tractor driver, mechanic, an a dad.be safe.

I'm not gonna lie..... I probably would have lost my cool when that 2nd air valve fell in the tire.....🤬🤬🤬

Is that Hemlock falls?

Recent to your channel, loving the video's. Do you have to get any kind of special permission to film the barges.

There is a video called the "World's Best Tree Feeling Tutorial". It is about 45 minutes long but after watching it for what seems like 15 to 20 minutes it ends and you go what?

Why are your valves on the inside? Thats awkward!

lmao Road is really coming along Interesting way to replace valve stem but whatever works is deemed a sucess Now on a negative note WHAT THE HELL IS WITH THE NO TREATS ON BOARD FOR THE KIDS roflmao Better get on that or I'm gonna have to come down there and feed the kids nothing but sugar coated whatever then I will leave and you can deal with the aftermath lmao As always all the best from Allenford, Ontario, Canada Be Safe

Above the notch. Spell checked again. Sry 😞

"Good job with the math, Mike" So, your name is Mike. That's why they call you Kleeman, to distinguish you from Mike Simon? Am I right?
