Lots of work here at our "new' off grid cabin- including getting those trees off the roof and more cleanup- doesn't seem to end! I decide the only way to get all the debris off the roof is to get up there. Let's see how that goes...
Thanks for your views, comments, and support!

@heatherclayton-callaghan4270 Год назад

@@therealgirlinthewoods Hi Brooke , just thought for your 2 kids not wanting to be on camera, could they do some research into the previous owners of this place???? Both busy with work and studies no doubt, but it was a thought. It'd be fabulous to discover the who , how, why , etc of them and if they're around still to watch you renovate it back to life. Cheers Heth xxxx

@chefvaleriewilson8738 Год назад

Thank you for the update. Brooke, WOW! going on that roof! So much debris to get off and you just climbed up there and got it done! Great camera angles and shooting to give us the experience of being on the roof with you. Sounds like you have a busy summer planned. Looking forward to seeing all of it. I am going in the woods and I am getting happy!

Do not be in a hurry to burn all the wood. You are blessed with dry wood. Make neat piles so that you have warmth in the Spring and Fall. Put lattice around the bottom after the boards around the perimeter are gone. So much to do, but take your time.

No holes in the roof from the trees? Awesome! No asbestos? Awesomer! So much potential! So glad there was progress without injury.

@lucymorgan8859 Год назад

Brooke, you scared me to death on that metal roof!!! Never, never!!! get on a roof without nonslip soles!!! Also scared me when you had your ladder turned sideways toward the house...that can make it prone to tipping when you climb on and off, but you turned it around later...yay! I'm also glad you were sitting while you were doing alot of the pushing the debris off. You were being careful, and did an amazing job!!! Now, go order yourself some nonslips, girl!!! 😘

@HazedForDays Год назад

The work you guys have put in, really shows already! Can't wait to see what you do with the place.

@melanieronbrooks80 Год назад

I love the the property that surrounds this house. It looks so peaceful and relaxing. Brooke I am jealous of your blueberry, cherry and hazelnut plantings. I have been wanting to plant blueberries, but we have a black bear that likes to hang out behind our house. I definitely don't want him to think we are a free food source. Can't wait to see the progress and transformation of this house.

Very wise decision on the testing. Just because it's a cabin doesn't mean it can't have materials contaminated with asbestos or lead.

@pamelapruitt2558 Год назад

I love how capable you are. Reminds me of myself 20 years ago. My husband and I reroofed our former house by ourselves. We worked every weekend and every day after work, til dark. It took us a month! But we got it done and it only cost us $800. At 65, I don't see myself on another roof unless its a flood. Y'all are amazing and I love how you can take something so run down and through your efforts, create real value. Looking forward to seeing this cabin as it progresses.

Brooke, you totally freaked me out standing on the top of that ladder and climbing onto that roof. Of course a lot of that stems from me coming off a ladder and going down 10 -12 feet a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, I know, there was a little padding on the ground but still. Gravity is more than a rumor. Great progress. Love both your and Dave's channels.

Great job on that roof. Nice that there's only one dent from all those trees. Plenty of firewood. Yep, clean, close up and secure. Then the fun begins. Slow and steady. No hasty decisions. Get to know how you're going to use it and then make it happen. Hard work, but the rewards? Fugetaboutit!

Huge job clearing that roof off. I'm amazed that it is relatively (if not completely) undamaged! I would have thought it would be all eaten away. And finding that date (1972) and the names: what a cool piece of information! Wishing you the best and will look for your occasional updates on this long term project, Brooke!

@vickyf164 Год назад

Hey Brooke 👋 So enjoying this cabin series. This should have had one of those…”Don’t do this at home warnings” lol. That roof is tough and looks like new underneath! Loved the Chimney ❤️. You should get a photo of it for inside the cabin. Have a blessed week 🙏

@PeaceWorkII Год назад

Oh, I meant to add that you need to add your names, kids and woofers names and year to that chimney. Will be really cool for the next generations to find one day. I often put a shiny penny with that year's date into the concrete/ cement work, especially if i pour a hearth inside. I have stuck cool little trinkets like painted wooden fish and goofy, quirky, arty fun stuff and unique tiles and metal, glass to make it a work of art. Mosaic- like when I can. I know you'll make your unique mark on this project! Fun to find old trinkets at thrift stores. Broken pieces of cool dishes and stuff that is someone's junk is my treasure! Can't wait to see your projects coming up. Cheryl🥰❤️

@kylabranaman4840 Год назад

I found your channel a while back and then watched an episode with my 4 year old daughter. She now prefers to watch your videos instead of cartoons. She chants “girl in the woods! Girl in the woods!” 🤭 Which makes my heart happy. Thanks for sharing your life with us. You’ve also encouraged us to get outside even more and get happier. 😁

@Scorpio45Libra 8 месяцев назад

Ya know, I had a thought. I've been watching ALOT of yours and Daves videos the past few days and I remember one you did where you mentioned people were complaining about you cutting down trees. I also just a bit ago finished your video on the storm damage to your house and community about 4yrs. or so ago. Then I just finished this one, and the one Dave did on his and Ryans cleanup. The next time someone complains about you cutting down trees, refer them to these videos and show them that Mother Nature does far more damage than you could possibly ever do. Love the videos Brooke!!
