Beautiful property. Enjoy the peacefulness of it. Much better than pushing dirt and limestone. The best to all of you.

@larrypalmer2415 2 года назад

A day trip with a spouse that you love, is always worth it!! Enjoy many more..!

@michaelelliott334 2 года назад

Love the expression on your wife’s face as you were showing her the property. That is a beautiful area.

@tedmorrison8632 2 года назад

You all are fantastic parents for sure. Hunter is a very nice young man the love you have shown all your children is a true testment to us all, love will always overcome.

@davecrawford4418 2 года назад

Hey there! You mentioned the sound of the wind. The sound of wind through a stand of white pine is so different and amazing. Especially in winter when it's cold and snowy.... nothing like it! :)

@davidmorse8432 2 года назад

You are so right. I love that sound, like the wind is talking to you.

Mike, that Virginia property would be an excellent home for your older sawmill to mill up lumber for future projects. That way you could build with onsite material and not have to transport material back and forth. Love what you do! Peace and blessings. Ops! I commented before watching the whole video. Peace.

My goodness! What a absolutely gorgeous areab this is!! Thanks for taking us along!!;) Peace to all....💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜

@davidbishop4015 2 года назад

That logging trailer was good. I thought you were having all that delivered. The sky, walking trail and river in the state park was beautiful. Everyone in your family will enjoy your property for many years to come. And Mike, the years of traveling for work has paid off . The life you and your family enjoy was well worth it. You did what had to be done to get where you are today. Looking forward to more videos of the new property. Stay safe.

@johnking8679 2 года назад

What a beautiful property you have in West Virginia, Mike and Melissa.......with REAL TREES - unlike here in San Diego !! It's considered as partly desert 🏜️ here, so you can imagine how much we LOVE trees !! Thanks for sharing, guys. It's all very exciting !!

@aaronbaum2542 2 года назад

Looks so Beautiful and Peaceful!!

@paulfrew6291 2 года назад

Wow the new property looks amazing

@williammatthews2948 2 года назад

This new property is absolutely beautiful.

@davidunderwood4341 2 года назад

Hey Mike, another reason I'm glad I went with a circle on my driveway is on the inside of the circle I have about 8 face cord racks so customers can just pull up with a trailer to any rack, load up and then swing right back out. Another great video!

@waltergregory2368 2 года назад

I am so happy for the two of you. The new property is going to be a real venture for you to experience. You are going to really enjoy your new mill. I built our log home with my LT40HD in a year twenty five years ago. I was retired and had an Amish family help me build it. My Dad was still alive and he showed up every morning at 7:00 am. to help me with the farm chores I had a herd of 25 white tail deer at the time and he enjoyed bottle feeding the fawns each spring. We had cattle, hogs, chickens, and turkeys as well as the Pizza Farm. He would run to town for things we needed. He was able to relive the life he felt passed him by. He was a widow for 25 years. So being his only son he enjoyed my farm as if it was his. Great memories for me. My six sisters resented it.

@uberuser1999 2 года назад

Almost had me there when you were showing that load of logs! Camp Morgan is really going to be something special for you and your family. I look forward to seeing everything come together!

@thomasroach1183 2 года назад

Very beautiful property, I can see you will be very happy down there. The footage of the rapids looked great, must be some good fishing in there. Thanks for sharing!!!!!

@keithburch5506 2 года назад

Oh, and by the way......you really had me going for about 4 seconds! Very funny! Melissa - sneak up behind him and yell, "bigger truck!!" That looked so funny. Wow, the mystical forest sounds lovely, looks mystical and has fawns bedded all around! Sure wish that river adjoined your property! Ever do any Kayaking? My kids have 2 each, for wives or kids. Josh drives a little Toyota Corolla that has racks on top for 2 kayaks. Big deal here during summertime. You should think about it after you're all settled in down there. Maybe have one canoe for Hunter and one more. I'm really looking forward to the build there! Gosh, your channel just keeps getting better! 👍🚜❤🇺🇸

@johnking8679 2 года назад

That West Virginia property is absolutely beautiful !! Perfect fit for you guys !!

@russellbowman8051 2 года назад

@wwaldron3 2 года назад

So excited for you both with regards to this new property. I have been watching you for around 3 years and you have been a motivation for myself and another family to buy property in an area about an hour south of your property in WV. Hope to meet up some time in WV!!!

@marciam6224 2 года назад

Our son & daughter-in-law live 2 hours south of us as does his ex-wife. I used to do that trip down to see them all by myself and it never bothered me. But now that my fibromyalgia has kicked into high gear, the arthritis in my knees and now my right hip has gotten worse, I/we haven't made the trip down since covid reared it's ugly head. Between them they have 3 boys-he has sons who are 20 and 16 and she has a son who is 16. I miss the trip. Gonna have to do it again soon. When we both go, we usually come home the same day because we have no one to let our dogs out while we're gone but when I go by myself, I stay either one or 2 nights.

@tedbarr1551 2 года назад

That log trailer... I thought.. IS THAT LEGAL?... you had me going for a moment Mike. The joke is on me. LOL

@als2797 2 года назад

Great video mike and Melissa,that property is sure beautiful,yea the old saw mill would be nice to have there,you can cut on and mill there

@gmpillar09 2 года назад

Did you get to see muddy Creek Falls when you were at swallow falls? Muddy Creek Falls are much bigger falls. Next time you’re in the area try out schrock’s country store near Oakland on Underwood Road they have an awesome sandwich/deli. We are neighbors from deep Creek Lake Maryland anytime you’re in the area need anything or if we can help with a new property let us know

Fawns are real good at staying in place. We nearly missed seeing one curled up next to a tree when we were working the yard once.

Great show you two something a little different…. Keep ‘em coming

@jonathanwilhelm2958 2 года назад

The Garrett County Historical Society Museum & Garrett County Transportation Museum, (both near the train station in Oakland) are good stops. Lots of logging history in both Preston & Garrett counties is shown there. Mid-to-late 1800s through the early 1900s, tons of pine and red spruce were put on the B&O near Hopemont and shipped east to be used for shipbuilding. At one point in time, a Shay locomotive hauled logs from Cranesville to Hopemont, on wooden rails through the Cranesville Swamp and what is now Alpine Lake. Logging is still one of the largest industries in both Preston & Garrett counties which you can see, with constant log truck traffic.

@Mounty621 2 года назад

That is some gorgeous countryside. Congratulations on finding that jewel of a property.

@farmerrod3159 2 года назад

The park reminds me of McConnells Mills in Portersville. Another part of God’s country, another blessing. Thanks for sharing with us, farmer rod.

@patricktillmanns3949 2 года назад

Mike you might want to purchase that corner 10 acres. That way you'll never have a problem neighbor on that lot.

@olddawgdreaming5715 2 года назад

Looking good in W VA Mike and Melissa. Can't wait to see some videos from the work you'll be doing around there too. You'll make it work with Hunter down there in the new place. Stay safe and keep having fun. Fred.

Thanks for another great video. You two are a wonderful example to married folks everywhere of a loving, friendly relationship. Thank you also for sharing about Hunter. Having worked with students who experienced various levels of autism, and as the grandfather of grandsons who are on the autism spectrum, I appreciate your insights into these wonderful children and how we can better help them experience success in their lives. As always, keep up the great service to us all.

@shawncovell3960 2 года назад

Thank you, Thank you for taking us on your adventure to Swallow Falls! That's one of our favorite spots, hiking and swimming every weekend! I think Melissa will change it to a 5/5 once you find the "local" entrance.

@feelingold2995 2 года назад

Beautiful place you guys got there.. I love West Virginia.. Bought my property there about 2.5 years ago.. About 3 hours drive south on I 79 from the Burgh.. Im far west of your new property.. 1st thing i built on the property was a well secure sawmill barn and then a lumber drying kiln.. Get yourself a nice 32 foot camper or bigger and be comfortable.. Im in a 24 footer 2 weeks a month there and its way to small lol.. Every rest station in WV on I79 that i stopped at has RV dump stations.. Gotta keep Melissa happy and smiling... Bless you guys..

@michaelmullins1290 2 года назад

Good day Morgans. Mike, I was passing through Grove City area Wednesday night. I was getting tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings on my cell phone. I missed everything except some rain and was hoping the same for you guys. Heading to Norwalk, Ohio for some car racing. New property adventure looks great. Keep us posted

@troyr57 2 года назад

Funny, I am in Norwalk OH now, working. I have meet the Morgan's and now have a Kubota KX 033-4, couldn't afford a 57 but hopefully in the future. So you into the Ford's?

Snow break is what they call it. When the trees were small you got a heavy snow and broke the tops out.

@Tdale85 2 года назад

Mike, while you have the equipment for the driveway, It may not be a bad idea to lay some conduit to run your electric underground from the road. This will cause a lot less outages, IMO. Also, while you’re building, you can put a small camper/RV there at the end of the driveway and hook it up to electric. You can also bring down a tote of water each time you want to stay for now as well. Property looks very peaceful.

@johnking8679 2 года назад

Reminds me of John Denver song where he sings about "West Virginia, mountain momma.......!!" I think it's title is "Country Roads" a really nice upbeat tune !! I'm sure you guys will know it !! 🎸💞😊

@danshields3654 2 года назад

Listening to Melissa talk about not being able to do the long drive reminded me of about 30 years ago my wife and I were going to Miami from southern Ontario and I had just about made it to the Georgia, Florida border when my wife started to say we had to stop she could not drive any more but I am the only one driving she does not. Good to bring back memories.

Hi Morgans, were the pines on the WV property planted or just naturally growing on your land? I just marvel at the beauty of the United States and you folks have truly found a slice of heaven...

Beautiful land there - the trees most likely sung to you with the wind in their tops. That in itself would make me purchace that property. Like the idea of cutting in just 3-400 feet instead of say 1000. Deer and more there for your pleasure. Quiet - love quiet.

@donnlowe9129 2 года назад

Now is the time to draw up plans for your cabin on that property make it tight and comfortable for the Winter weather and be sure you put a septic system in so you have your hot shower and your bathroom facilities . You could prefab everything at home and truck it down there and assemble it. Next trip Melissa should drive down and back so she gets the route ingrained in her memory.

@streetrodder2846 2 года назад

I recognized Swallow Falls immediately when you showed it. One of my favorite places in the country. Take the path that follows the river from Swallow Falls to Muddy Creek Falls.
