Not always fan of how you do things, but I will say you are to be deeply credited for making your own joy without spending tons of money. The little things and being grateful. You have your act together and a good marriage. Makes you the richest people of all.

Mike!!! this may be my favorite comment and observation ever.....truly appreciate you getting it and even though we are not perfect....or professionals.. .or do everything the "RIGHT" way I'm happy that you can enjoy our nonsense and see the positive in it. Like you said we enjoy life and thank you so much for seeing both sides. Best wishes my friend
Wow, Jen - a real ‘lady of leisure’. It will be fun when you can sit there during a snowfall. Just don’t let your hot toddy get watered down. 🇨🇦

Two more projects. Enclose the sides underneath the house and deck to keep the critters out. They love nesting next to a heat source. Second, take the bedroom window out and replace it with a sliding door so you can go directly in and out of the hot tub into a warm bedroom!
That's the ticket! Just think- snow falling whisper quiet, a couple of adult beverages, and a warm fire inside.... that's livin' right! Hugs from Arkansas
Jen is blessed to have you as her husband 💞🙏🏿💞

great work getting the hot tub all installed and ready for use. Looks like it will be huge benefit after those long days of working around the cabin. Take care and stay safe.
That's life, relax and enjoy😊
I have a outdoor Yacuzzi as well since 10 years. From the beginning we installed (Buyed) a handheld there. Now I am 66 years old and my both knees are damaged. So this handheld was one of the best decision we had made. I can only recomment this to you. Greetings from Germany.

Niiiice. Can you find flagstone in your area? I mean the free kind in the wild. I'd put down flagstone or a concrete patio over by the hot tub heater and put a grill. You could cook and have drinks while people soaked. 😋

Place a small pergola over the pool. This way they will not receive the sun in front of them in the summer. And wooden floor to the area that is needed. Greetings from Israel.

@@OffgridwithJayandJen I need a huge ice machine to keep pouring into a tub. It was 110° today here. I'm thinking I need a cabin back in Michigan again for me to go to 6 months out of the year.
I have a question about the heater is it going to be ok in the winter time when your in it love a camp fire it makes the video thankyou for sharing here from Ontario Canada ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦😎 sorry I am complaining about the short video.

Hot tub will be winterized once the temps are consistently below freezing
Look good
Nice 😁👍🏽
HOT TUB....looks good....can you use it in the winter?
@OffgridwithJayandJen
9 ай бұрын
It will be a bit of a struggle to use once it is consistently below freezing. Most conventional hot tubs are run 24/7 so the that is not possible here off grid.
I’m not sure how well the metal will keep the critters out when all they have to do is walk under the deck lol Looks good though

It will have to be winterized once the Temps are consistently below freezing. Only way to have a hot tub in winter is to have full time operation and heat......this will work 75% of the time
Great job. But I don't see tiny bubbles.

They are on, I just bypassed all the air lines so the water stays warm. Only water pushing around so the cold air doesn't inject into the water and cool it off so much. 😊
It would be better in a shed that is insulated with heaters inside
No wine Jen ? Lol

I am surprised... if ya are having fun, then yer a supposed to go broke for a month just saving for it... I am truly happy for you kids. For some reason, love outweighs money, but given a choice.... I sure would like to research how much unhappy I would be at being stinking rich. I do remember some of my unhappy days of being wealthy and yet its only a taste of how unhappy you are when you lose your health.
