I come to this channel to hear Courtney say "Riley NO Riley!" each week. You rarely disappoint lol.

Such a nice way to wake up on a Sunday with some Riley and Courtney! Thanks for the premiere!

Gotta say that I love how you didn't leave any cliffhangers and didn't force us to wait for the next video to see the end result. So satisfying to see everything coming together in one very well edited video. Great job!

First off I love you two as a couple. Secondly I am constantly amazed at the skill level of the projects you take on, and you always make it work. I love watching you guys. So happy for you two and the baby, long live you guys

As an Architect who deals with structural quite a bit, you need to be super sure you have really good tie down for the roof trusses over that exterior wall. When you get heavy snow and a slight thaw, you may see the snow slide down and rest on the outside of the solar panels creating and uplifting moment at the living areas roof structure due to the inverted cantilever. Given it's solar panels, you will likely keep them clean, but it will be when the snow slides to the tip that it causes the most momentum change. Very cool design otherwise and great use of existing materials to solve multiple issues.

Mate, using your body as a testing device isn't a long term solution 😀😀😀 I'm not going to say "STAY SAFE" because I don't think you can help yourself but I do love you two's videos because you are both very resourceful 💙💙 11pm Perth, Western Australia

Would like to see you “gravel” your mud patch! I am sure many other fans would like to see as well! Courtney is such a pleasant person. Such a pleasure to have her on the channel!

I used a fish tape with one run of 30 ft out of the total of 125 to get from my roof through the garage under the front patio and into the basement. There was another 25 ft section on the roof. I was completely unable to get done without help. For you to have done all of that by yourself. Am impressed. Fishing wires was the worst part of putting up my system

Victron, backup diesel generator, Delta Pro with smart Delta generator, thousands of watts of panels and now a massive Bluetti!!! Need to do a vid showing how all your systems integrate and explain what happens when grid power and internet go out. Does Bluetooth still work without internet?? Stay safe reckless Riley. Congrats on the new member of the fam and last but not least SNOWVERLANDER I love it.😂😂

You guys never cease to amaze me. Stand back and look at what you've built! This is a dream off grind build, and I'm sure you are not done yet! May I propose another project? You need a mini elevator to the deck or from the lower level, you know for the welder?...LOL

The power of two minds ..... One goal "excellent smiles" 😁😁😁

Pro of mud season = nice weather BTW….nice plumbers crack! 😊

"Always have a backup." Perfect! Now a Rain-catchment system? "Water is not a luxury."

Great idea using solar panels as a roof. Really like the installation and attention to detail. Looks great.

Puppy grips on the stairs....that's why I love you guys!

Y'all look so good together! Perfect couple.

Very Nice! Now you know what would be a very cool project for you? Build a underground home/bomb shelter with secret tunnels connecting to the shop. I'd love to see how Riley would deal with all that mountain rock.

You two are great together. I absolutely love every episode. I will admit I was looking forward to seeing the baby 😊

Congratulations on becoming parents. It is the most important thing that my wife and I have ever done.
