If you read the story, the youngest was 2 years old at the time, kid grows, so do the shrubs.
Yes I read that, thanks.
Backwoods Home Magazine has had ongoing stories of two women who built their homes. I think they did use some help.
Even with one of my sons helping me it would take a great deal of strength. I can’t imagine setting the rafters. Yikes-I’m just amazed.
Good story...Thanks for the heads up.
The people are superimposed on the house.
umm so what?
It still might be the house they built. And it still might be the actual family.
Yes, photoshopped to the max. Good eye.
Youtube is excellent. I’ve looked at:
Change a battery on a Sonata: 65,000 views.
Change windshield wiper on Sonata: 23,000 views.
I'd bet the photo is genuine. Late in the day, sun setting and long shadows. Use a fill flash to highlight the people in the foreground of the photo.
And as for youtube, I'd never repaired much of anything around the home. Then I came across youtube videos on how to repair small engines of all types and other items. Since I've repaired a push mower, lawn tractor, weed eaters and an electric range doing pretty involved repairs on several different occasions.
Please see the posts from several of us in this thread. You are used to seeing crap photos. This one was actually done correctly.
Right you are!!
OK. The press is now obsolete. Stop buying newspapers and reading their crap online. Go find the facts ourselves and let our friends know what we found out. Someday soon, I hope.
It started in 2008? Nearly nine years ago?
The “how to” info on YouTube is great. Awesome. Now.
Nine years ago? Nope.
I do not believe she would have been able to turn to YouTube for the resources and info needed to build a house like that.
Actually, I remember how to videos being somewhat better 9 years ago than they are now. An example, real plumbers would put their “how to” videos online, and, I guess when too many people were not calling them, the videos disappeared. I can’t say they were on youtube itself, but they were online.
I agree. I'm not debating that.
