@donfinley7986 2 месяца назад

I'm sure glad everybody's okay and very lucky on the house or a cabin I should say looks like you need to get a bunch of people together and have a firewood party you got plenty of firewood, the place I live in California there are I think it's 8 Black Pines in front of the community if any one of them fell it would take out the houses across the street it's amazing how tall trees get you're such a shallow root system

Stop that strawberry plant that's growing on the asparagus crown. Don't pick many or any more this year. Those crowns are immortal if you split them every 10-15 years.

@clark7117 2 месяца назад

The soil in Alaska isn't particularly stable either, making conditions challenging. I'm sure they're relieved that the storm didn't cause total destruction. On the bright side, now there's an opportunity to build that wrap-around deck they've been wanting. Nature has already done the heavy lifting, and there's plenty of timber available for milling. Your mill will come in handy. 😉 Happy Mothers day.

@AnAlaskaHomestead 2 месяца назад

I’m sure they are too. If nothing else they have firewood for next winter.

@lenalyles2712 2 месяца назад

Don't fret about the asparagus and strawberries growing together, mine did that and after 4 years I had bumper crop of both. The only problem was having to be careful when cutting the asparagus.

@aspendell209 2 месяца назад

It seems to me that right after a big storm is the best time to go beachcombing. I don't imagine you find many glass balls, used by older netters, these days. But you may find buoys and such wreaked from others moorings by the storm. I saw a couple well weathered boards while you were pushing everything back with the tractor. Your fruit trees are doing great.

@AnAlaskaHomestead Месяц назад

We do find a lot of buoys and other teams that float.

@susanhighfield8284 2 месяца назад

That's awesome that your fruit trees are leafing out. They're alive! Who's cabin amost got smashed? That was crazy. Are you guys building a greenhouse this year or traveling with the boat more? Or both? I'd have a hard time deciding which I'd rather do. 😅

@AnAlaskaHomestead 2 месяца назад

Yeah we are so happy the trees are doing good. We’d like to do both.

@user-el4mn4dm2d 2 месяца назад

Would you do some cutting up of these trees or leave it up to owners?? What happens if urgent? & owner is overseas?. Anyway clean up is tiring but necessary. The garden is looking good. Happy Mother's day for Diana & her Mum.

Them trees are no joke...Think i would do some major homestead tree clearing if i were living on your island....If anything just for piece of mind not to mention heading off any disasters...Think if they blew over that easily in 50mph winds its only a matter of time....Hopefully any major storms are over for a bit...Looking forward to seeing what comes next...ya'll enjoy visiting on mothers day, stay safe, be well....

did the wind come from a different way thats why they came down? cutting them up is a very tricky thing not for just anyone good way to get hurt can any of that on the beach be used for fire wood? great gardens, burpees has a squash that goes up not wouldnt take up as much space tell her

No the wind wasn’t different. They did cut down a lot of trees near that tree.

@eileen.333 2 месяца назад

Kind of like sour strawberry… we used to pick it wild as kids and dip it in sugar before each bite 😊

@AnAlaskaHomestead 2 месяца назад

Yes you need something to counter balance its bitterness.

@resurrectiongarage1506 2 месяца назад

And that’s why people need to get over their unhealthy obsession with trees, sure they are beautiful but they should be cleared back from building far enough that they can’t hit it, only have small trees near houses.

Is there a reason you dodnt put the washed up stuff on the landward side but put it on the seaward. Just thinking if you have another high tide it will block the road again. Maybe it is some local rule.

@AnAlaskaHomestead Месяц назад

The tide, current and wind will take the debris and move it to a different area.
