Alone on the Frontier: 3 Days of Silent Reflection & Survival

Embrace the pioneer spirit with our latest video. Spring is finally here and that means Tornado season is upon us so that means I need to batten down the hatches and prepare to ride out the storms and winds that always arrive sooner than expected.

IN THIS EPISODE: I finally build a saw horse and yes you're absolutely right I should have built this a year ago. After that I finally secure the front door and add shutters that I can lock. I've seen very few pictures of pioneer homes that had shutters. I'm mostly adding them so I can better lock up the cabin for when I'm not there. I also build a table, a kitchen counter, and a shelving unit so I can start to display more of the everyday items a pioneer would have had in their home.

If you're wondering where I got the authentic 1800's caned goods here you go: https://www.southunionmills.com/mid-1...

The next two episodes should be good. Depending on the weather I'll plant my crops or I'll bring in more fun antiques and western items into the cabin and make it really look like a home.

Please share this video with someone you think would appreciate it.

God bless,
Will
