You two are so dang cute. You can almost finish each other sentences. I’ll tell ya, your B roll footage, that drone footage, the red lit sky, absolutely beautiful.

I guess a lot of people would say that living your life style is a hardship. But look at the beauty that each season brings. Shovel snow and then go on a snowmobile adventure and bring home fresh meat and make a meal with a lot of ingredients from your own garden. And thank you for the beautiful scenery of the wonderful state that you call home. 😎 From Live Oak, Florida

We really enjoy your videos. Being seniors, our favorite line is "they're so young!". As a couple, your interaction with each other is respectful and caring. Seldom do you talk over each other or complain. Your videos are uplifting and reflect the value of hard work. Take care of each other!

I’ve been through winters like that. Having spent the whole day removing snow just to wake up the next morning to a fresh new pile. I think this is the 1st time I’ve seen you two actually sit to eat. Thanks for taking us along on your hunt. Gorgeous scenery!

That was alot of snow! You kids work so hard to stay on top of things! Those pink sky's and yummy homemade food has got to put a smile on your face, I know it does mine💙💪

Ariel, your cinematography paired with that beautiful piano was mesmerizing. Your camera and drone work have become one of the major highlights of your videos.

We lost our dog suddenly on Sunday, we are working on getting over the grief. We played your video from 8:00 to 9:ish the beautiful music along with your awesome videography really brought us a moment of happiness!! Thank you and really love your channel!

The pie, the dogs the snow the trees the fire the scenery the pink sky 😍 loved it all. I bet it will be difficult to leave such a beautiful place ❤️

Wonderful long and interesting and enjoyable visit from you both today. So many things you accomplished. I never knew those birds had such lean red meat. It reminded me of all those Dove my brother in laws brought to our place many, many years ago. Mom would clean them, then put them all in a huge black covered roaster . So delicious! Thanks so much for these wonderful vidios. From Central Oklahoma.

Wow - this is exactly what comes to mind when I think of Alaska - tons of snow and stunning beauty. After seeing how much work the snow makes you do and how hard you work to get and make your food, I feel confident that very few people will be following your footsteps and crowding up the place - which is a good thing. You truly are giving us a blessing by sharing your piece of heaven with us. Thank you.

Thank you for letting us all be a part of your journey in life. Alaska is a beautiful state.

Proves my lifelong belief "3 hours of snow per winter is all you need" Keep up the good work!

Can't wait to eat. The hearts of the birds of the tundra!

Thank you for providing me with a wonderful reprieve from everything that is going on around the world. I always feel so relaxed when I watch your beautiful videos. I so appreciate you two taking the time to bring us along on your wonderful journey! Way to go getting some Ptarmigan. Liz

I have been in Alaska over 40 years and this year is not an unusual winter, this what we used to get 10-12 years ago. I think the Alaska weather is heavily influenced by Pacific and Arctic Ocean water temps., the El Nino and El Nina weather effects from the Pacific equator water have most far-reaching effects. Sometimes when we have the warmer waters there have been fishermen who have caught Tuna and Sunfish, warm water species. The pie looks great, it made my mouth water, I have treated Ptarmigan like beef. It is good cooked like a steak, with onions and mushrooms. A little A-1 sauce is great on top. Thanks for the video, I know you have worked hard with the snow removal, sometimes that's the most Alaska thing we all share.

Ohhh such beauty around you, your drone shots amazing! That hunt was great and produced a beautiful pie. Thank y’all for sharing your hard work and play with your fans, you’re an inspiring couple, much love being sent ❤

Please tell the chef the salt and pepper came through! This had me chuckling. you two are the best! I feel like I learn so much from your videos even though they likely aren’t meant to be super informational. You are just two people living your lives and recording the journey and it really makes an impact on others. Thanks for blessing us! ❤

All of that snow is so beautiful! I love hearing it squeak under your feet. It’s very relaxing watching you do the snow removal around your house, so thanks for filming all of that work! That pie looked delicious! And Ariel, I loved the way you had your hair while you were cooking. I don’t think you usually do fancy do’s with your hair, but it was really cute!

Ive added this comment I dont know how many times but you guys have a knack for capturing nature in all its glory, a true eye for beauty. Those shots of the woods with the sun and the pink orange colors of the sky was just wonderful, thank you so much from a city drone that hasnt had the chance to leave the grind in more than 4 years.

😯How do humans live in that much snow?! You guys were made for Alaska. Your video and drone footage is amazing! I love seeing Alaska through your eyes. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Gorgeous footage, wow. Simply beautiful!

I so miss the snow as I now live in Florida , came from NJ. Down here 40 years.

It certainly a winter wonderland. I’ve seen all the winters since you moved to Alaska and this is the most snow so early in the winter. The birds are really hard to see in the snow and camouflage well. You both are great at making recipes and the pot pie looks amazing. Until your next video take care and be safe.(Judy NB)🇨🇦🌲

Such a pleasure to see your beautiful scenery in the comfort of my cozy NC no-snow, warm and dry little house :)

Awesome video as always guys…. Here in Labrador, Canada when we get a ptarmigan crop that’s almost empty we blow it up like a tennis ball size and tie it off. When it dries it’s like a Christmas ornament…. Big tradition here for the Inuit. They also say if the crop is really full on all the birds you have stormy weather coming, the birds get ready to burrow for days if they need to.

I am so glad that it doesn't snow in Florida!

You guys never cease to amaze !!!! Walking on the snow must be so tiring !!!! Best part is you just shoot as much is needed,

Such stunning dusky skies you have had to enjoy in the dark days of this winter. Hopefully that offsets the exhausting snow removal days somewhat. Beautiful videography montage. Thank you.

A great update and a very snowy video. Thanks guys

I love your blog. Alaska is so very beautiful. I spent a year there in the 60's but when they asked for volunteers to go to Italy, I jumped int the warm climate.

I've been following you for at least a year. I was starting seeds at the same time as you last year. It's a shame you won't be having a garden!! So sad... I love watching you preserve food, live off the land. Thank you.

Oh my goodness! I absolutely love animal hearts! Any kind of animal. So excited to see y’all eating those. And that pot pie looks absolutely amazing! After all that snow removal and hunting, you deserve it!!! ❤❤

Lovely ptarmigan pie! 🥧 I got 'tennis elbow' from shoveling so much snow on my property. The Dr told me to stop shoveling, but here by St Paul we just had over a foot dumped on us. So I appreciate watching you two also doing snow removal.

Great video as always that pot pie looks amazing. I just had a hip replacement 3 weeks ago but I was able to do a little rabbit hunting over the last weekend and harvested a rabbit so I made rabbit pot pie with veggies I had in the freezer from my garden, so satisfing.

Keep going. This is wonderful and interesting. We can enjoy this experience with you folks. Thank you so much.
