The butcher block table is gorgeous, the stone adds beauty to the project, you should be very proud of your work!!!

The counter is BEAUTIFUL!!! 😍 The whole cabin is beautiful….. Such great memories with your son. He will be thankful one day for these precious moments.

I love your sense of humour - makes you unique as an Alaska content creator. I think the changes you've made to the kitchen are fabulous - looking forward to seeing more. But of course, enjoy the time you spend with your guest, we'll all be here when you post again.

Your room is SO much nicer than when you moved in. It didn't look like a home. It looked like making do until the real home was ready. Now it looks welcoming. Your worktop looks fantastic.

Most amazing woodworking!!! Incredible how many sandings and coatings, I learned A LOT! Love the cussing and swearing you say happened to 'getter' done. Most GORGEOUS results! And most ingenious process! Enjoy your guest, you will be missed. It's hard to be alone all the time so have a blast!!!

You did an amazing job!!! Absolutely beautiful!! 🌻

It’s beautiful! The scenery was amazing too.

Great job!! It looks beautiful! You're hilarious apologizing for hitting your "sinks" together 😂😂 Greta barked when she saw Kenai on the TV, so tell him she says hi.

Hi Diana! Thank so much! LOL. I could only imagine at the time of filming what it must sound like for someone wearing headphones. 😬 My videos I hope are pretty evenly matched on sound decibels and then out of the blue…WHAM! The sharp clanging of two hollow metal bowls smacking one’s eardrums without warning. ⚠️ 🤪 Tell Greta and the rest of the crew that Kenai says “Woof!” 😉❤️

We've been watching your videos for awhile now, but I wanted to stop in with my first comment to you and tell you how great your new kitchen counter and set-up looks! You did a great job and I know you must be so proud. Beautiful! p.s. We love Kenai!

Who sings that rendition of the folk song.. "I was just calling to see if you wanted to run away with me".. !!!???

Alone, you've done exceptionally Great 👍, the kitchen, stone, chandeliers, it all looks fabulous ! Your amazingly transforming the whole place into your dream and home. Inside and out 😀 !

Your Butcher Block is absolutely beautiful and fits right in with your design of your home. You are very talented and are a very creative homemaker. Great to see Kenai so excited to be hanging with you on your adventure into town. 🐶💕🤗💖

Dear Alone & Kenai, A few months ago I stumbled onto you YT Channel. I began watching 2-3 videos a night from the beginning episode. It is such an adventure to watch; from gardening to building and even grocery shopping....I'm in awh! I had the pleasure of visiting Alaska by train almost 10 years ago. If I were in my early years I would move in a heartbeat. There are a few things I enjoy like quilting, sewing, raised gardening and canning. Your kitchen counter is stunning and love the choice of soapstone. Keep those videos rolling...I'll just live my Alaskan adventure through Kenai & You. Happy Homesteading!

the new kitchen has such character now. i think is beautiful and cozy. you did so good!

Wow! An amazing transformation! Great job.

Kenai would love for you to get a MC with a side wagon. How cool he would look with motorcycle glasses on! 🕶 The stain color and the counter looks great. Love the details. Well done.

You did a great job! Love the corner pieces and "door knockers"/towel holders. Obviously there was no need to be fearful. Just right for your home.

31K subscribers, glad to see that your channel is continuing to grow. You did a very nice job on the counter, cabin is really looking good.

Hi Chip! I am always pleasantly surprised by the continued growth of the channel. And very grateful. Thank you for the compliment on the counter and cabin. Hope you are doing well and enjoying your summer. 🤗❤️

I like the bowl sinks, it a great idea.

I should tell you that I got a new kitten this week, she is a blast.

Love how the kitchen turned out. More spacious. The drone shots never realized how desolate that drive is wouldn't want my vehicle to break down, but gorgeous scenery. Hugs to Kenai. Blessings to you and your family. 😊🇺🇲

Looks awesome! Enjoy your guest. 👍🇨🇦😎

The butcher block looks great. I also love the hardware you picked!! Great job! Give yourself a pat on the back!!😜

That table came out great! What a transformation.

I enjoy watching you living in Alaska. I wish I was young enough to do what you do, I am too old . I’m 63. I will just enjoy you live the life😊🌹

I absolutely love how that turned out!! It's so gorgeous and beautiful how you finished it and everything that you put on it!! Excellent job!! Take care and God Bless you and Kenai always

OH WOW!!!! It's absolutely beautiful. I especially love the hardware. You are so talented. BRAVO!👍

Do you know why your kitchen is so magnificent its because it has that special touch created by a woman who has a great imagination on creating just what she wants done !!!!

The counter looks awesome! Great job Alone.

I absolutely love your butcher block counter! Your finish is fabulous and the iron details really pull the look together! Will you share the coffee wood conditioning that you did prior to finish. Thanks so much for great content!

The Kitchen is looking great ! The butcher block and stone just work :) Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Weedeater! 🤗❤️

When I installed my hickory butcher block countertops, I ended up applying a light oak stain, and decided on maintaining them with oil, I have used all types of oil, tongue oil, Vaseline, and settled on regular olive oil and over 7 years my countertops still look gorgeous, I wipe them down weekly with a old cotton tshirt with a liberal amount of olive oil and hand rub afterwards with a few paper towels. I also had some leftover butcher block and made a cutting board and a utensils holder which really add to the look. I have been a woodworker for 60 years and love wood countertops plus hickory butcher block is a very very hard and sturdy wood.

Beautiful work!

Good on you chick Nothing more satisfying than creating your own spaces. Go you good thing.

Yay, another job done!!🎉🎉

Very nicely done great job love your home projects and your hard work 🙂👍🇨🇦 North Bay Ontario

So happy for you that you got the counter completed! I can sure relate to putting things off til it's like a big gorilla sitting on my shoulder, and the great freedom once it's done! And it's Gorgeous! Great idea of the stone cutting board-So clever. Excited for you of your friend arriving soon for a long visit. Have a wonderful time. Cute seeing Kenai jumping around excitedly...Beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing it all with us. Til next time : )

Another fantastic video! I love re-seeing the places I have been back when I lived in Alaska. I like the color you chose and the addition of the soapstone,

Hi Scott! Thank you so much. I am glad you enjoyed the video and that I can bring back some good memories for you. 🤗❤️

I bought an older home 6 months ago...I am sooo with you on the staining, painting and continuous projects going on. I love it though, and the results! God bless, and keep up with the beautiful creative fun!! ❤

Wow! Your kitchen turned out beautiful ! Well done !!!! I love it ! You put a lot of thought into this project, and your whole house., I love your pantry, and your fridge is genius. . 🥰🍋🍒🍑💐💗✝

Sorry haven’t commented for awhile, but so much accomplished. I have such respect for you, but love your humor as well.. Your cabin is looking beautiful. Give Kenai a hug from me. 🤗

I just got a new one that I can travel on and it is so comfortable. I seen the book before you took the stone home

I'm so excited for you!

Your counter is beautiful as I knew it would be. Enjoy your company Alone. I love your projects. You are amazing.

It's GORGEOUS ❤ Great job & very thought through👍

I'm so jealous.. Looks awesome! So enjoy your content.. Keep it up..

Your kitchen looks great! So happy you were able to finish the countertop. The oops with the lumber worked out great in the long run with the butcher block.

Hi Alone! You did a great job! The color choice, and the iron is beautiful. Looking forward to more cooking videos. TY for always sharing your view with us, it never gets old. Hope you have a great visit.

Your butcher block counter top is gorgeous! You did a great job!

I am so glad you make these videos of Alaska it's beautiful. You are a hard working woman also beautiful

Alone you did a fantastic job just like you always do you are such a talented person each step you get done we see more of your personality hoying into your home you have excellent taste. Loved the scenery and the Air BNB was so lovely where you and kenai stayed he is such a beautiful dog and so well trained you two was so lucky to find each other like you did i always look forward to seeing him in every episode just like i always am happy to see you upload . Hope you have a wonderful time with your friend have a blast enjoy we will be here waiting for the next upload. You and kenai will be missed though but completely understand. Be safe and have a wonderful time 💞

Your kitchen looks amazing! You have done a great job! I loved seeing the before and after. What a change!!

Stunning🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Your counter top looks beautiful!!

You did an awesome shop Alone, in spite of your nervousness in doing the stain! Another project off your to do list. Be careful moving around the kitchen now! Enjoy your time with your friend that will be visiting you and Alaska. Until next time, be safe. Blessings

Your dishwashing set up resembles the Amish dry sink set up! We are getting ready to renovate our 100 yr old Farmhouse and will use this set up during the process. Your kitchen looks great!!

I'm so glad you love it! I would have gone with the natural color and no orange but It's your home!

Kitchen looks amazing! the new counter is beautifully done. Great job.

I lived in Soldotna in 1963 & 1064. ❤😁 Countertop looks fabulous.

Hi Alone! Good to see you again. Your bhtcher block table and set up looks beautiful! Very nice! I know you like the independence of heating your hot water on your wood stove and thats awesome. But, youve got electricity, why dont you buy a electric heat pump via a tankless set up so you have hot water all the time for washing dishes and laundrey, and have it set up to pour directly into a sink for dishes and your laundrey tub? It would sure make life easier, plus you can always do it the old fashion way when you want or need to. The gray water can be set up to run at a slope outside the cabin away from the house with screen filters to prevent pests from getting into the evac pipe/hose. Judt thinking about tbe next ten years, its going to get rough with aging caring a huge hot pot of hot water around to wash dishes and laundrey. I'd have both in place. Wishing you the best!

The butcher block is awesome, I love your rustic kitchen. Looking foreword to some cooking videos. ❤

Wow!! That turned out beautiful, great job!! On a side note, I didn't realize a Peninsula was named after the sweet Kenai!! ❣

Your kitchen is beautiful. Love the soapstone and the hardware. Love the stain color also. Good job ❤❤

Love your videos! Go enjoy your friend! Winter will be here soon enough! You’re all ours in the winter!

I love it. You did a fantastic job

So industrious and talented! Love how everything turned out!!❤

On Butcher blocks, I never use stain, I use a food grade oil only. The table can be done with stains.

I enjoy your videos so much. The butcher block counter looks great and I just love the black iron detail at the top of the legs/posts. Black iron details here and there is a really nice look.

Hi the finished counter. Top is a beautiful masterpiece , well thought out unique ! Enjoy your break with your guest , we can catch up with you after. 😊☀️

Awesome job, color great. The cabin is coming together ❤️ You are a real inspiration for women.😊

love the colour! Coming together very nicely, Alone. You have some lovely pieces there.

Wow. The butcher block is beautiful. ❤.

Greetings from the Navajo Reservation. I just wrapped up a pipe wedding job. Up there in Alaska.

Kitchen turned out great. I still have a difference of opinion with my mom. Quite often as a matter of fact. Cute outfit for the reveal. Love that drive, it's an amazing place.

Love your channel. ❤

You young lady are a fabulous wood worker.The burcher block project is gorgeous. I'm not sure what happened to your husband but he was a lucky man.

I think it looks nice. With wear and use, it will become an antique. 😃

Wonderful!! You're so clever, creative and talented!! Another fantastic episode! Btw, totally jealous of that snow...we've been in a heat wave this week that has us sweating and exhausted. Oh well, fall will be here soon! Big hugs lady!!

I think it looks fantastic and that black hardware….LOVE IT. Great video thanks for sharing 🌷🇨🇦

WOW !!! That came out amazing! You could butcher a freaking moose on that thing. I am totally gonna copy some of this! the steel bowls are on the list. I am really chemically sensitive, so I stopped using wood stains, lately, it's been raw linseed oil with turpentine to thin it, and maybe some black walnut juice tossed in, I should try coffee soon. The linseed/turp. mix smells wonderful, and i've found turpentine also freshens up the floor when a teaspoon is added to soap. I have been restoring old axes and garden tools, and this mix penetrates AMAZINGLY into even oak and hickory. One ancient method of re-hydrating old wood handles is to soak the butt end, and it will move up the shaft through osmosis, because after all it was once a tree! very cool. Oh and the ice box is awesome. However, I can't figure out how to cut ice blocks without falling in and dying, Oh last note: I think the lighter stain color looks way better than anything darker, I like kitchens to be a bright place.

# GORGEOUS Butcher Block counter!! WELL DONE!! : )

Wow, everything looks beautiful! Amazing job,well done!❤

Beautiful ❤

Great what you did with the kitchen!☺

Butcher block looks absolutely amazing. Well stocked bar when is supper ready I’ll come over the mountain

Beautiful job !!! The hardware looks great Karen from Florida 🌴💕

Looks beautiful!! Again, I am envious of you doing what your heart called you to do. I wanted to move to Alaska many years ago when I was in my 20's. Because of circumstances, I put that dream aside. Now, still wishing I had but know that with health and age issues, its just a pipe dream. So, in a weird way, I live through your videos.Like reading a good book with pictures! Good wishes for you! Glad you have your son in an area to help when muscles and such are needed!

Nice. Love your video 🌹👏👏love from Norway 🇧🇻

It turns out really beautiful I'm really amazed! Just started watching your Utube a month ago and been enjoying it!

Oh my! What a lovely result!! Great job!

It looks amazing. Good job, you did it

It turned out so much better than OK. Your choice of stain.The open shelving. The stone drying rack. All of it came together so beautifully. I'm so jealous.

I love the end result!!
