[0]
we are at so the land the rooted life tour聽聽
[4]
there they are look at this amazing mudroom they聽
are just buying a new homestead how many acres聽聽
[11]
14. 14 acres they've put in the grind on an acre聽
and a half yes you've graduated up to 14 acres聽聽
[18]
look at this mudroom though that's my first聽
thought yeah it used to be a carport yeah and聽聽
[24]
somebody at some point and closed it to make it聽
look like a log cabin i feel like a mud room is a聽聽
[30]
must-have yes this is this is a homestead feature聽
yeah every homestead is super excited about聽聽
[36]
this house it's huge yeah no this is actually聽
it's perfect because you need a lot of space
[53]
how about give us a 1980s style tour of the home聽聽
[57]
remember guys when we used to do that when your聽
parents used to do that yeah friends would come聽聽
[62]
over and give tours oh yes that doesn't happen聽
anymore we like to do that okay let's do that聽聽
[68]
1980 we still do that okay good okay and this聽
is the kitchen this feels like homestead cribs
[80]
these are my chicken tractors here聽
comes the music and the slo-mo
[89]
okay so this is the yeah 60s home 60s 1960聽
1960 style uh ramp style home it's just聽聽
[96]
i feel like it's fairly decent shape聽
it's just outdated yeah you can tell it's聽聽
[100]
never been updated at all yeah the bones are聽
good but my favorite is this the spoon and the聽聽
[106]
fork spoon and the floor probably gonna hang聽
on to that feature or is that going on that's聽聽
[111]
going huh oh she's hanging on and she's going聽
uh oh uh oh yeah and then the pantry you wanna聽聽
[116]
show them the pantry okay so this is our pantry聽
i first thought this was way too tiny but a lot聽聽
[121]
of stuff actually fits in here it really does yeah聽
i'm impressed yeah so we're taking it out anyway
[129]
i think the plan is is we want to take out this聽
wall yeah because it's so dark in here and then聽聽
[133]
other sides of the living room and so this聽
will open up this one here that's not load聽聽
[137]
bearing either it might be what was up with聽
the 60s and 70s and putting walls up everywhere聽聽
[142]
i don't know and this is just like horrible聽
and nowadays we just take it all down聽聽
[150]
it should be throughout the whole yeah because聽
somebody had the bright idea let's cover up聽聽
[156]
these fabulous wood floors with this really ugly聽
carpet that's going to hold all the dirt and stink聽聽
[161]
right right yeah so we're going to do a grand聽
reveal one day we're we're kind of afraid聽聽
[166]
of the carpet and the wood paneling聽
it's very kind of dark it is聽聽
[169]
and you know you open this wall it could be that聽
though is that real wood no no that's not that's聽聽
[173]
like yeah we might be covering that up in here聽
sounds like woods underneath here you talking聽聽
[178]
to us i like the book feature right here of course聽
i'm partial i was reading that this morning i was聽聽
[185]
going to reveal that in a minute want to show the聽
loop sorry i'm going ahead and moving becky slow聽聽
[190]
down somebody's really excited about this tour聽
i am i'm very excited i'm very excited living聽聽
[197]
room nothing in it really just so we've just been聽
it's been exactly a week we've been moved in wow聽聽
[203]
um so we still have boxes everywhere that we're聽
going through um this is the living room this is聽聽
[208]
actually the entryway yeah moving makes me want聽
to cry yeah like the amount of work yeah that you聽聽
[213]
guys have it's like a lot of hurry up and then聽
like we're here so basically we just loaded up聽聽
[218]
a big giant u-haul came in one shot and dropped聽
it off did you have any moments of breakdown at
[233]
really he's mr strong so what does that look聽
like for mr oh no i got a chair i was like聽聽
[237]
it was the end of the day i was like right before聽
bed yeah i don't think i think i'm stressed out
[243]
that's what all you people are talking about聽
that's what this feels like yeah i was like聽聽
[248]
i think i'm stressed out uh-oh i was like he's聽
stressed out and then i just walked out of the聽聽
[253]
room yeah and said that and walked out oh my gosh聽
usually he's you dropped the bomb yeah yeah that's聽聽
[259]
holy yeah he's proven to say that he's stressed聽
out yeah now this lamp though is that y'all's聽聽
[264]
lamp or is that here that is ours i recognize it聽
from the old soul where does this come from so聽聽
[270]
that's it from 1949 i picked that up on the聽
side of the road from the guy selling it in l.a聽聽
[275]
that's it still dude oh for like five bucks like聽
we should be huge in like mid-century modern聽聽
[281]
yeah in los angeles and so we corrected a lot of聽
vintage furniture and we kind of still kept that聽聽
[285]
theme we sold a lot of it when we moved out this聽
way but um some of it we also kept nice you're聽聽
[291]
gonna get rid of this right wait what how does聽
that make any sense it's the tag team just look聽聽
[297]
the dishwasher is over here but you're pulling聽
out wet dishes and it's a two-man job right聽聽
[304]
this is what i'm saying like the聽
brilliant idea like let's put this knife聽聽
[308]
yeah that came later probably like oh they聽
don't have room because they built this before聽聽
[312]
the district okay so you're gonna get rid of聽
that and then you'll have an island maybe like聽聽
[316]
you'll have a room for an island because聽
that's because this is gonna be gone yeah
[322]
yeah paneling gone we kept the ham look we聽
kept the prosciutto that's uh uh uh three聽聽
[327]
months old three months old let's keep going the聽
secret door she hasn't locked in the basement聽聽
[336]
are we allowed to go down yeah okay so here's聽
our patient which makes our house that's random聽聽
[341]
so much bigger yeah that's for i'll change the聽
light bulb i don't know because you can't reach聽聽
[345]
otherwise so coming down the stairs to the left i聽
want jason to build me a room and this is gonna be聽聽
[351]
my pantry slash meat storage slash canning聽
room nice food room nice it's gonna be聽聽
[360]
enclosed we have a spot for our freezers now聽
they're not in our living room they're not in
[367]
dryer down here um there is a finished room聽聽
[371]
um which is also has a shower and bathroom it's聽
kind of a mess right now because it's all right it聽聽
[376]
has a clothing this is the finished room yeah yeah聽
it it will look nicer without all our stuff yeah聽聽
[381]
this is like basically all my tools we just like聽
which is pretty minimalist for a uh homesteader聽聽
[385]
y'all really yeah oh my gosh we have so much聽
stuff it feels a lot when you're moving but um
[397]
you have a second toilet man i know it's聽
important that's very important it's聽聽
[401]
very important and then laundry and dryer聽
goes here the washer and dryer and dryer
[411]
these are the rooms this is like an office聽
probably will be an office or a studio yeah聽聽
[416]
it's a homeschool room you need something to聽
edit the videos nice i like the book collection聽聽
[422]
the bathroom i already used it i like聽
how they put the tile around the mirror聽聽
[428]
yeah that looks like i saw that i was like聽
wow so are you guys what are you guys gonna聽聽
[432]
do with the towel you're gonna keep the聽
tile get rid of it all i'm thinking might聽聽
[435]
might keep it if we do then we would just聽
paint it room is not very minimal by the way聽聽
[439]
that's penelope's room she had half the聽
stuff huh she's gotta have this stuff聽聽
[444]
yeah i like it how's she adjusting to the move聽
she's so excited she loves our property she just聽聽
[449]
runs up the hill and she's just been outside聽
nice every day let's go see the outside now聽聽
[457]
yeah this is beautiful jason you're owning聽
this way yep straight up just looked at this on聽聽
[464]
onyx app and you you you have all mild grades聽
doesn't look like you have a whole lot of force聽聽
[470]
to clear no you're gonna be grazing dude what are聽
you gonna graze i love to do sheep yes sheep yes聽聽
[479]
yeah for the new goats yeah man no goats i have聽
no plans yes so this is this is an old horse聽聽
[485]
property yeah and when we first saw this property聽
there was two horses and two donkeys on here聽聽
[490]
and i think that's all he ever did i mean the聽
guy who owned this place basically used it as聽聽
[494]
a vacation home he never actually lived here聽
and he never did anything with it but except聽聽
[498]
you know let other people have their horses here聽
so i feel like it's definitely like overgrazing聽聽
[504]
like there's a lot of horse poop everywhere聽
um and the grass just seems very low to me聽聽
[511]
but that is not hard to heal yeah i mean there's聽
this um fancy yes it's all throughout the entire聽聽
[522]
property but it's not the property border it's not聽
the line okay it's wherever they want the horses聽聽
[529]
in and it's electrified or it was electrified聽
you can't like try it um but it's that throughout聽聽
[536]
the whole nice so that's something i have to聽
figure out how soon are you gonna get these sheep聽聽
[542]
i don't know i'll tell you what just letting聽
this grow and go to seed is going to do wonders聽聽
[550]
and then mowing it after that or putting sheep聽
on it is just going to be absolutely crazy for聽聽
[554]
you yeah it will revive in a year look you got聽
the corrals there's a horse corral you got the聽聽
[560]
corrals though nice so at one point there was a聽
mobile home here apparently and so there's another聽聽
[566]
septic tank and there's electric so did you have聽
to go into debt for this or did you sell out聽聽
[573]
well yeah we made pay for this we made some from聽
our our one and a half acres yeah for sure but聽聽
[578]
but we definitely had to take out a mortgage on it聽
does that make you nervous no not at all i mean we聽聽
[582]
had a mortgage for our last house for one and a聽
half eight i mean that's just the reality of it聽聽
[586]
yeah you feel like it's doable yes sweet okay so聽
when you had that moment of stress it wasn't at聽聽
[592]
all related to that no it's gonna dip your plunge聽
the faith so to speak right no i think for me it聽聽
[599]
was really just um you know knowing that i still聽
have to edit videos you know i have to put out the聽聽
[605]
content i still have to we still have to move you聽
know all these things and sell our last house you聽聽
[612]
know there are some things that we didn't need聽
to button up so just like kind of all of it i聽聽
[616]
feel like i think it's my personality i want to do聽
everything now yeah and no it's not wow holy crap聽聽
[622]
i see i see workshop in your future i see people聽
barn in your future i see lots of possible things聽聽
[631]
in your future what are you gonna do with this聽
amazing barn look at this i think at first this is聽聽
[635]
so beautiful definitely gonna be a work workshop聽
type thing like a woodworking workshop uh yeah聽聽
[641]
i'm also thinking even like a butchering type聽
workshop yeah um like maybe there's 13 stalls聽聽
[647]
in here wow and so maybe one of the stalls聽
it could probably be like a walk-in cooler聽聽
[652]
yeah maybe this is where we hoist some pigs you聽
should get a tractor in here it's so tall yeah聽聽
[659]
wow there's electrical all throughout聽
here in lighting wow this is nice
[669]
we kind of just put our stuff in here for聽
now just kind of threw it in here um but yeah聽聽
[678]
it's a bit overwhelming to me just to even look聽
at it because you're just not used to this i'm聽聽
[684]
not used to like something big like this so i聽
guess i just have to be patient with it yeah聽聽
[691]
and figure it out what's cool about聽
this is this can be so versatile聽聽
[695]
and there's gonna end up doing a number聽
of things and oh my goodness just saying聽聽
[699]
it's on concrete makes it even more flexible聽
let's solve this mystery that really tall window聽聽
[707]
really high window as i'm wondering i don't know聽
is that fertile horse and what's this so here's聽聽
[716]
a hay rack on the other side of that maybe we聽
should buy some of these hay racks from them聽聽
[721]
i guess they did pvc so the horse can't聽
gnaw on it i see a party here not too聽聽
[726]
cute no you're terribly far from that was the聽
long farmhouse table and now you see in the聽聽
[732]
vision and she could like hang big chandeliers聽
and then cross the the yes people born right聽聽
[741]
yeah you're gonna have you're gonna have at聽
least some people barn in here i can see it
[747]
this your garden spot lorraine hopefully i'd聽
like to have a garden here this is nice you have聽聽
[752]
these you have these swells that were built like聽
probably over 100 years ago yeah so this this used聽聽
[759]
to be another type barn type thing but it used to聽
be on a different property at some point and they聽聽
[763]
relocated it here initially i was thinking this聽
was going to be a um maybe i could turn it into聽聽
[769]
some kind of workshop instead of in the barn聽
maybe have this to be like a woodworking shop聽聽
[775]
i don't know this is you too this brambley stuff聽
hey sheep love this buddy it's really cute oh yeah聽聽
[781]
okay they love this stuff what about the thorns聽
no yeah they'll eat the greens off and that thorn聽聽
[786]
will die really they'll eat the leaves off of it聽
yes dude they will eat those leaves what about a聽聽
[792]
beef cow oh yeah how many acres do you got 14. uh聽
on this looking at this even in the shape right聽聽
[799]
now you can already graze this you're going to be聽
having grass over there very soon one of the best聽聽
[804]
things you can do for this is get a beef cow聽
on it as much as you want up to seven really聽聽
[809]
if you want to feed hay if you don't want to聽
feed hay two or three and that's considering聽聽
[815]
you raising them through the winter okay but聽
you could get a year old steer in the spring聽聽
[820]
and kill it now and kill it in october november聽
get you a one one year old steer get two of them聽聽
[827]
wow and get going on it okay that's for聽
everyone jasper and be forever and they聽聽
[832]

your channel's exploding a little bit聽聽
[838]
yeah we're from the excitement of the move聽
huh yeah yeah people this is exciting stuff聽聽
[842]
people love to see this because it's different聽
this is so different than what we're used to聽聽
[846]
yeah and so i feel like we're starting over again聽
um but you know we learned we learned a lot of聽聽
[852]
things too so it's not like we're starting over聽
but yeah physically i guess we are starting over聽聽
[858]
as far as new land new houses and people like that聽
because you have experience and you're starting聽聽
[863]
