We hit Savannah, GA and our first two stops were forts! Fort Pulaski is a very pretty “moated fort” that got messed up and has the scars to show for it. Then we made it over to Fort Jackson (dodging lightning and mosquitos) to see them fire a cannon. BOOM!

God Bless Bitcoin
The US government ran a $2 trillion deficit over the past year. This money was printed from thin air. We are up to a monstrous $36 trillion national debt right now. BTW…I promise it is very hard for you to truly understand how much a ‘trillion’ is. We are not wired to think in trillions …
Removing 900 Pounds Of Old Carpet (This Old Dean House)
Our first chore in our old house was to get rid of all the carpet. It wasn’t as old as the house but it was definitely old. There was also a lot of it! Max helped me and took over the project (and my YouTube channel) until I got finished with some meetings. Molly and …

This Old Dean House – Indoor Renovation List
Just making the list of everything you want/need to do in the renovation/restoration of a 130+ year old house is a big job. Getting two people to agree on the list (and the order) is another big job. We already agreed on most things. Of course, we have completely different ideas in some places. We …

This Old Dean House – What Happened To The Barndo?
I don’t often let a project defeat me. But…sometimes…I stop being stubborn and let things be. With the Barndo project, there were too many things telling me the direction we were heading was the wrong direction. So, the This Old Dean House project took the slot of the Barndominium project. We are keeping the farm …

This Old Dean House – We Bought A 130 Year Old House
In a dramatic change of direction, we decided to buy a 130-year-old house. Things can change quickly around here! This all started because Emmaline didn’t want to sleep under our dining room table in our one-bedroom apartment (for Christmas). Fancy much?!? LOL! A few hours later I’d found us a new place…or…an old place! Everything …

This Old Dean House – Selling The Condo and Moving Into An Apartment
We sold our condo back in August (thanks to realtor Jake) and moved into a one-bedroom apartment. That is what this video is about. Little did we know what the next video would be about. Our life took a big unexpected turn at the end of 2024. The DeanoRolls RV travel (and sometimes farm adventures) …

Relaxing Around Hilton Head, South Carolina
We visited Hilton Head, South Carolina, and took in a little resort life. We stayed at The Inn & Club at Harbour Town in The Sea Pines Resort. That sounds like a mouthful…a pretentious mouthful. LOL. Resort life is not our normal mode of travel. I noticed there seemed to be a lot of sleeping …

Volunteer Tomatoes (DeanoFarms – Week 105-115)
FREE BLTS! I did not want a tomato plant this year. But, the monster tomato plant I grew last year had other plans. So, I got a new plant from its seeds–volunteer tomatoes! I did almost nothing to help it but I still got a few BLTs out of it. It was a nice little …

Congaree National Park (South Carolina)
Our trip to South Carolina was to check Congaree National Park off our national park list. It is a small national park but the spiders didn’t get that memo (hhuuuugggeeee). I was glad to have Emmaline with us because I’m an old fart and left my readers in the car so I couldn’t read the …
