It's day 1 of our adventure on our new homestead in North Idaho, and it's all about getting organized! We unfortunately had an unexpected set back with our RV water pump that slowed us down.

They did the move just in time that they are very well socially distanced that covid really isn’t a threat being where they are and only them out on the ranch!!!! Man talkin about excellent timing or really dang good luck!!! 🤔hmmm maybe you should get a metal detector and try lookin for some gold!!!! I mean the luck you guys have!!! But just don’t play lotto.... I’m afraid you’d probably more than likely hit!!! Lol stil like the gold thing tho!!!

JoAnn Wood YES!!!!! They sold them to a non video entertained lifestyle where game consoles no longer exist but only the use of imagination and until that grizzly issue is securely 100 percent no longer a compromise of the families safety then the kids can start building tree houses and discovering the cool salamanders and frogs 😲WAIT THEY USED TO LIVE IN WASHINGTON UM YYYYEEEEAAAHHH THEY ALREADY DONE THAT!!!

I would recommend that you move the piano away from the walls. It needs to be kept at a somewhat constant temperature. The walls will be very cold.
@margaretkelley4216
@margaretkelley4216 4 года назад
It's not only the cold (keys are ivory or plastic) that could freeze, break or crack. But the biggest culprit is the humidity absorbed by the felt & losses it's softness even if dried out. So best not to have against the outside wall. Would be good to get a de-humidifier. They aren't too expensive, but they do run off of power. Thank you for sharing your adventure, it enables to see new things we might have experienced if we had chosen other paths. It is a beautiful place you've picked out in the middle of what I call "God's Country". Wishing y'all the best and look forward to viewing more of your encounters.

Good morning and congrats on moving to Idaho! We are a New Hampshire working farm family. Grass fed beef, haying and logging. New to your channel and will follow with interest. Your timing couldn't be better. Spring brings the good weather and we are grateful to be living in shelter on 350 acres. How many acres did you purchase? The scenery is stunning! We have smaller mountains and lakes in our "back yard". Jim and I built a farm cottage at the base of our family farm in 2016. There was a draught that year.Our new artesian well only pulled 2 gallons a minute,but enough for us. Never ran out... That year 3 of the 5 dug wells on the main farm went dry! Camping is an adventure you will talk about for years to come.

Could have hooked the hose coming off the well to the discharge hose that broke off and maintained running water till you get a new electric pump, only downside is you would need someone at the well spigot to turn the water on and off so you dont blow out seals inside the coach.....ask me how I know... Being no stranger to "Embrace the Suck" many times over. Hope this helps out for future reference.

Blow seals inside...the pump won't put out more than 60psi like the onboard pump

Glad you guys got settled in a little more, and then jury-rigged a solution to a new problem that appeared... I wish I could say that's the last time something like that will happen - but we all know better! Hopefully your cabin pump will hang together long enough until the replacement arrives; I'd think about still spacing out your showers and water usage until then, to reduce the stress on the jury-rig. Here's a question: have you guys considered eventually setting up a cistern someplace between where your house will be, and the barn - as a backup to the well? With 6 people, you can get a 1,000 gallon tank that the well can keep full as a backup to any problems with the pump, that's buried deep enough to withstand the winter months (but not too deep that the water crumples the tank, or that it's too deep to get to - in case you have to work on it)... but available as a secondary water source. Might be something to consider!
@taracriste1

I totally feel y'all's pain on the water issue. We lived for little over a year without running water. We showered at my dad's, my mother in laws and my sisters. I cried many a day and night because it sucks without running water! But we now dig out own water trench, laid our pipes and same for sewer. It's all In stalled, the day we ran water through these walls I cried out to God 😭❤️🙏 happy tears. I keep saying if we ever have to go through the apocalypse, I know we can survive 😂🤣
