When we are supposed to be in Tshirts, we got a blizzard and got snowed in good. The normal temperatures around here for this time of year are 50 degree days and 30-40 degree nights. But nature turned things around on us this time.
I went out the day before and cut a bunch of fire wood out of the forest on our second property. We have 18 acres of wild, wooded land but its all pine. We burn an average Jack Pine tree every day or two. So I am out cutting fire wood all the time out here.
Since the blizzard was on its way, I went out and cut more this time. My wife Melanie came out to help get the logs out of the woods. Generally cutting a single Jack Pine up into logs takes a lot of work due to all the gnarly branches. So I needed help getting the logs out of the woods and onto the road before dark after cutting it all up.
Next I spent a while hauling the logs in a wheel barrow down the dirt road and next to the house. This was some hard work but I got six wheel barrow loads hauled in. Melanie stacked the logs while I hauled them in.
You can watch the first video of us getting ready here: https://www.diytube.video/video/homestead-updates-near-death-prepping-for-blizzard-in-april
I also mentioned in the above video that we came quite close to losing it on the highway. A tie rod was coming apart on us but it fortunately waited until we got off the highway to really come apart. We managed to limp to my parents place and got it fixed though. I kept the tie rod because I have never seen one so loose before.
That night the snow started and it came down with a fury. It snowed all night and most of the next day. During breaks in the snow, we shoveled the place out a bit to reduce the amount of work it will be when the snow is all over.
We got about a foot of snow I figure but it was blowing away due to high wind so it did not build up that high in the open areas.

Are you here to stay this time Cocksucker?
Don't upset him, or he might threaten to shoot you!
Wouldn't be the first time. Right, Troy?
Well, since I have never and do not threaten to shoot anyone unless you are a coyote, I do not agree with you.
But, But....YOU did threaten to shoot @oldcodge Troy @thediyworld.
You threatened him with your "12" here on Steemit.
It's in the Blockchain!
BTW, it's a little difficult to shoot a coyote with a 12 gauge shotgun.
Not impossible, but a little difficult for most of us.
For you....I would say impossible.
You wouldn't get close enough with all the jaw jacking you do.
But I do not even know anything about him/her.
How do you suppose a person can get threatened when they hide behind a fake name.
I know nothing about him/her at all but that he/she is very mean.

@Oldcodge, Or the passive-aggressive Reid will invite you to his alleged residence for a "openhanded" fist fight.....
then in the next breath, deny he said that, like he did to me.
Saying we can talk with open hands, meaning nothing to harm one another is a far cry from saying a fight.
But you are troll. I should not expect better from a troll
So now you admit it! @thediyworld
It's just proof you're a passive-aggressive pussy,
with zero credibility.
So, asking someone to meet up and talk things through to possibly end this harassment is considered aggressive?
Interesting. I did not know that.
But it failed anyway. You guys want to hate me and will never stop. I know that now.
Anyone new to Turd, see this!
The so-called "trolls" are a just a group of intelligent, critical thinking observers that call Troy Reid on his lies, deceptions and fraud.
I noticed in your last few recent videos, you look like hell Troy @thediyworld.
You look like a beaten man.
If I saw you for the first time now, I would have thought you were much older than me.
Has the clean, all natural, on grid country life not been kind lately?
BEWARE OF THIS SCAM BY TROY REID JUST AS YOU SHOULD BEWARE OF THE RELIGIOUS CULT HE BELONGS TO , IT HAS BEEN PROVEN TO HAVE SEXUAL DEVIATIONS AND MONEY SCAMS ....... THIS IS THE LINK TO THE DOCUMENTARY THAT AUSTRAILIAN TELEVISION DID ON THE DEMONIC CULT KNOWN AS ......... CHRISTIAN ASSEMBLIES INTERNATIONAL
oh,now you own TWO properties. knock off yur self aggrandizing bullshit. a road bisecting the banks property does not make it two separate properties. it is still one you self important lying piece of shit you.
Dick Head, you got a bit of snow you pussy Drama Queen.
Troy, what is your reason for returning to Steemit?
He's back for our entertainment in fact Trog Iv'e just sent your local township a quick email to tell the girls your back on Steemit, they thrive on it for entertainment value.
You might be able to kid the idiots that believe in you on here but you can’t bullshit the locals.
I understand you’re the talk of the town, like the village clown!
lol
Troy are you preparing your subs for another crop failure? Will you plant crops in June as normal? Or will you plant now and let the frost get them? If so will you be on food stamps this Winter? Or will Mommy and Daddy bail you out?
Troy you supply us with so much enjoyment!
Well - HELLO!!!
We just had a blizzard. Of course we are not planting yet.
I’ve had stuff in my greenhouse all winter, started my Tomatoes in Jan when it was well below freezing outside.
Mind you I do have it heated but my greenhouse has glass in it not an old tarp thrown over the top.
Trog called his greenhouse a project, I call it a fucking abortion.
All Old Trog will say is it will do for now!
I call it, "I was too late starting and will finish it in the spring when it thaws out."
Troy, all you do is 'Too little, too late.' A heated greenhouse - as mentioned by thedarkdestroyer above would help. Why don't you heat it? You do have a greenhouse dont you?
What about all that stuff you do on the TR Lacks Testicles Channel? Where's all this prepardness and prepper mentality?
Troy has Testicle its just they never developed!
aka "ill do it later"
Why won't you show proof of your military discharge Troy @thediyworld?
What is it you're hiding?
A Dishonorable Discharge?
This is Troy @thediyworld during Michigan's April T-shirt weather.
Here Troy @thediyworld the Drama Queen cries the sky is falling from a spring snow storm.
Never one to pass up an opportunity to Exploit a normal situation to every other person on earth.
He continues his delusional narrative that it should be "t-shirt weather" wherever he is, in April.
Notice how dumb dumb and his mail order bride (bought with donations from stupid YT viewers) are both outside shoveling snow, BUT their infant Michelle is nowhere to be seen.
This is how irresponsible Troy Reid is.
Notice how he placed his useless solar panels under that pine tree?
Spoiler Alert......He is On Grid anyways!
And why is she shoveling snow to the garage?
He parks the car under a tree.
Why is he shoveling snow from behind the car when he points out the snow is too deep by the road and says it will "bottom out" and doesn't go anywhere anyways?
Who in their right mind makes a chicken coop "igloo" and only uses two lights as a heat source for the chicks?
Who says earlier this week he is "too busy working his job" in a YT video,
Says he's handing over the old job of making "daily YT videos" to his wife,
but ends up making three videos this week after a long absence?
Troy Reid does.
He has no credibility.
For a guy with a full time job, he sure spends a lot of time on Steemit engaging the "trolls" that he warns everyone else not to engage.
Nobody is watching your videos on YouTube Troy @thediyworld.
Why would they want to go to DIY Tube to watch your electronics crap?
Heck, even the Trolls REFUSE to go there!
That should tell you something.
troy is a scammer!

I think I will wait until I get my new smartphone before sending up some videos. I'm envious of your 18 acres.
There's mention of snow in southern Virginia too. I am not happy about that. P.s. I'm not a Troll ;)
The land is quite beautiful here. And we are in the middle of vacation paradise. This is where everyone goes to get away from it all :)
Hope to see you over on DIY Tube soon.
Trog you in the middle of a burnt out desert, that’s why you can’t grow anything, even the trees are dying.
The place is becoming a dump, I’ve seen the new drone pictures that are privy to some.
Just stop lying.
So, you openly admit to spying on us with a drone?
How legal is that?
Are you accusing me of spying on you ass hole, I don’t have a drone, and I live nowhere near you but not far enough.
All I have is a PC and if someone sends me a link, I open it and watch.
I don’t know the content until it plays ass hole, so have I committed a crime ass hole if so tell me how you fucking idiot.
more legal than someone taking 56 acres and turning it into a dump. a flyover is not illegal. the airspace above you is not yours. it is the domain of the faa. if theyre hovering above you,then by all means shoot it down. that is invasion of privacy. but from all accounts it sounds like youre starting a hoard all over again which is a violation of township ordinances. he is within every right to skirt your property and making sure youre not pulling another pine bush. in which case you have no right to shoot it down. id check with the faa and sherriff as to what your rights are as to drones. if its legal to blast away,go ahead. you have a better chance with a shotgun than a deer rifle the way you miss deer.
Correct...even though the drone may be flying over the property boundary, it is patently illegal to "shoot it down". The airspace above your property is NOT yours...it is owned by and governed by the FAA. You can file a complaint...but you cannot "shoot the drone". Several folks around the US have discovered this as they have been required by court order to re-imburse the drone owner for compensated damages. Look it up t-beggar.
The way you use the information is criminal and considered harassment.
Sure. Lets go. Lets see if you take me to court for attempting to end your spying on me.
I wonder how that would stand up considering that spying is illegal.
And desert???? Have you even looked at the video?
Last I knew, it did not snow like this in the desert. And Jack Pines dont grow in the desert that I know of but I could be wrong.
Trog, you’ve bought a giant sandpit, seen the sand many times on your shitshows.
Next thing you will be telling these goons that believe the shit you spout is that your deep in the forest when really your only in a wood 100 yards off the main road.
Get real bum boy and get the fuck off your lazy ass and go get a fucking job to keep Ming and baby Ming Ming!
He has said many times that his property is zoned residential...
Suburban homestead is now wilderness?
Haha!!! Main road??? You mean that un-maintained dirt road? Or do you mean the other broken part paved, part dirt road 1/8 mile away?
What about the wild State land on all sides?
Oh boy.
Turd, your 100 yards off the 485, Town Line Road.
Stop trying to bull shit every one into believing your some kind of seasoned homesteader living in the rough.
Its pussy cat county there and all on google earth for all to see.
Oh, and I have a job. Thank you. Its a full time job now.
I am the marketing manager for DIY Tube Video Community.
Guess you did not read that in the article.
Next time before you troll, read the article first.
And what company is that t-beggar?? There is NO registered entity known as "DIY Tube Video Community", thus how could you be an "employee" drawing a salary, and having Federal/State/Local income taxes withheld...much less Social Security/Medicare and other local taxes withheld?
No business license, no registered state filings, no tax records...yup, sounds ike a REAL JOB...NOT!!!
For a guy with a full time job, you sure spend a lot of time on Steemit "engaging" the "trolls" that you warn everyone else not to engage.
this is how fucking stupid you are dumbass. yes,it does snow in the desert. i see camping vids of snow in desert camping all the time in winter. hes referring to your sandy, acidic soil with moss growing on top moron. using wood chips to tie up what nitrogen your plants may have gotten as a mulch is asinine. you who claims to be such an expert gardener. ive never seen anyone fail 3 times to get a crop like you have reid.amend that soil to bring the ph up and grow a green manure crop to give that soil at least some organic matter. you refuse to take anyones advice is why youre such a failure at anything you do. you are a stubborn knowitall who cant even be honest with himself because you are such a narcissistic,physcopathic asshole. one things for sure about you reid. youre one in a million.
Our vacation property is in the desert at a ski resort. Mountains and tons of snow- you really are not well informed about the rest of the USA, not even the state you live in. You still continue to call a snow fall a blizzard when most of your viewers well know what a blizzard is and it makes you look like the idiot you are.
That is just it- vacation paradise for most of the down trodden people stuck living in Michigan. Do you often get to go shopping in Detroit? You bought a super cheap piece of land only good in summer months and plan to support your scamming self and family by gardening a total of 2 months a year while freeze and frost free? idiot. You over paid for that crappy land and trailer and shack. You will never learn that you get what you pay for and you didn't pay enough to get a decent place. Not homestead smart.
@quiplet, There is no bank on the planet that would give Dick Head a Mortgage so I think you are talking about Moooooooomy and Propane Bill's desert. Dick Head is so far out of touch with reality he has appointed himself Marketing Manager of a fictitious company. The Mail Order Bride is the CEO and Ping Pong is CFO.
@quiplet -- don't be envious of Mr. Reid. This is an unedited screen capture from one of his videos from when he lived in Pine Bush NY a few years back! He turns beautiful, pristine land into a disgusting dump because he's a hoarder with no regard for nature or animals. He left an unspeakable mess for his landlady when he fled for Michigan
upvote you,give me yours
Don't hold your breath @akashbasak599 for Reid to reciprocate.
He promised his viewers back in October he would upvote followers to Steemit and help them make money here.
Spoiler Alert.....he NEVER followed through on that promise.
Now he wants to pay people in crypto-currency for posting videos on his new pirated DIY tube website.
History has shown, @thediyworld his word means NOTHING!
Buyer Beware!
