through there with the chainsaw w oh I got [Music] [Music] it yeah no pearo I had to just throw them out anyway just that one I wanted to clean up for now I got lots of stuff here along the trail I want to clean up and uh thin out the rose bushes away from the Saskatoon little bit at a time so yeah it’s kind of breezy today but I think we’re warming up to about 10 de Celsius so starting to look like maybe spring is [Music] coming let’s pile it right there for now I’ll make that pile probably bigger through the summer and that pile I’ll be cleaning up and moving over to the shop so that’s uh it’s all the wood cutting we’re going to get done today oh oh holy moly there the bo got me in the head got chickens chickens flying over here it’s like three them they got quite a few I I feed them a little bit people are clearing all the land and a nice little pop pop kind of patch here they love these Buds and stuff so I try to I try to give them a little feed and sometimes I see 30 40 at one time out here they’ll be just sitting out in the middle of the yard picking and took a little while to train the dog there for first year I had her to not touch them she chases everything else but she just lays on the doorstep and watches them feed so C on the other hand well if they see them they try to sneak up on them and that usually sends them scares them off but anyways back to other chores you saki huh who you saki are you big baby you big baby oh my poor baby okay okay baby kiss kiss oh Jer don’t get enough attention Jer don’t get enough attention yeah wherever my hand is whever my hand is that’s where you need to be you’re a big baby you’re a big baby yes you are yes you are you’re a big baby okay yes here s s big baby oh I know I know it’s been a busy winter don’t say much of me H now is this cuddle time is it just cuddle time is it this cuddle time a a you poor thing you poor thing you poor thing oh yeah I know yeah they missed attention winter time I don’t spend as much time outside in the yard so you got a free hand you got to be giving them a little attention a [Music] [Music] should used the bigger trailer I guess it will look different in a couple of [Applause] months yeah more building more building but not mine I have to come give son-in-law hand here we’re just trying to get them up a greenhouse a little bit of other other stuff so it’ll uh get a roof on it before too long well just got to build a figure out what size of door to put in and cut the frame out and uh ready to build some rafters [Music] [Music] I am uh going to be building a water catchment here so you’ll see uh lot of wood helps to gather helps to gather a little water keep it close to the Garden I think I got it fairly straight with so I can rest of my buildings and be able to get through with the quad [Music] [Applause] a little bit of difference much little bit of difference that’s okay there we go this one I got to fix a little bit on board but I have a hammer these are the same same link [Applause] all that should be high enough bent over your nails [Laughter] well I know it looks different and yeah just you know as long as it’s okay with you guys if I change my mind and change my plan a little bit that’s a little bit too wide really want time you just get a good plan in your head and then it changes a little bit that looks really good much get the corners down Cent’s okay see and figure out how we’re going to make water stand here you’re going to see it happened before too long oh that Bo’s that that’s okay be good there [Applause] [Music] oh boy ahing drive on my rhubarb not quite where I wanted it put the spout on the low side so I can drain it off I’ll put my pump on the on the corner I can mount my water pump so that’s a 1250 galon tank have to use poles to roll it up on the trailer but I usually put it if you’ve been following me you know I haul it on that big trailer that’s over there go fill it with water and back it in but I’m going to be getting Eve troughs put up over here and I’m going to get an e trough put up over here and I’m going to run that in there but I do have another way of filling it and I’ll we’ll we’ll cross that path down the road here a bit but for now it’s on there so hope I didn’t hurt the rarb is just starting to come kind of straddled the plants so have to back my way back out I don’t think I can get path there but so that’s how you set up to do water catchment I guess we need to put an e trough up but um once I get that up I do have a piece of e trough here that that might be long enough for this millshed um and I’ll get one I’ll get something made up for this shop and I can run them across because if we do get quite a bit of rain I mean they’re fairly big roofs you get quite a bit of water and I can pump from here I got enough Coes to go to the greenhouse and you can see I’m going to be building another planter if you stay tuned in the future I’m just going to get another five logs or whatever and then uh I got the boards all cut for the ends I’m going to put another planter I spread some sawdust there in the garden so I’ll be harrowing that in here in a few minutes and getting ready for spring [Music] the ground was cracking quite a bit it’s drying out like you can see over here even just uh how the soil’s cracking but it was because that’s Garden it was actually cracking pretty bad and it’s a little too wet here because of the snow you know you know I need to actually plow little bit away here uh maybe in the winter um otherwise we had a big snow bank there but that’s okay I’m not going to be planting all this probably anyway uh so I’m going to get another planter built here so I’m going to do some measuring probably today and uh make another planter get that dirt haul from the other one over here so I’ll be doing that a little bit later
