Go back and watch from the beginning; the guy literally built a whole cabin with his bare hands. And... I like his attitude on life as well.

I feel like this guy is the original in the video era. Here is a short-ish clip of Dick Proenneke.

Vintage film vibe..... very cool to watch. Shots of the animals reminded me of Hinterland, Who's Who - Canuck short clips we had years ago.

Building with logs.... hasn't really changed all that much, since metal tools were first forged....

These vids make me think about a # of things......

Modern life is often too distracted, to get a lot done... is one.....

Long Winter.... so I am likely to get through most/many of his....

We built a two story log cabin - from scratch - when we lived in Alaska. For those who might know - fifteen miles south of Big Lake on the Burma Rd. It was built in 1967 and sold in 1982 when we left AK. It's still up - in excellent shape - being used now as part of a larger permanent home.
