A bit more of an intimate look here at my little compound I call home.
I wanted to share with you guys some ideas and dreams that I have for this place, and for the future.
I hope you enjoy, and if you have feedback on anything, especially some of the projects I go over, please let me know!
Hope you all have a great day and thanks for watching :)

Looks like your every day is the same of mine. Lots of animals, gardening, working on my home, fixing other people's cars, pluse my own bmw's and the ones I fix and sell. I hope all goes well with you and your channel.
Sounds like it Trey! You ought to make a channel! You’ll get a sub from me! Cheers and good luck on your projects, appreciate your support brother
Alec I really enjoyed the time you took to invite us into your home. I grew up in the Appalachian Mts. of N.C. on a farm so im extremely impressed with you gardening skills and love the fact that you raise chickens. You are doing well for yourself and what a cozy dwelling you have.
Thanks Johnny I really appreciate that brother! Just getting my feet wet in the gardening world and homesteading but we’re just getting started. I plan on building my skills more and more as time goes on. Always been curious about the appalachians! I’m due for a trip out there one day
@@DayOffDIY your more than welcome to come to my place, I could show you a lot about the mountains and the way of living here.
@@tweedjohnny8740 I might just have to take you up on that Johnny!
You're rocking it! Between working on cars, chickens, and gardening. We have a lot in common lol!
Thanks man! Sounds like it! Makes for a good life
I love that E46 and it’s color!
Then when u paint the hot tub, paint it like a volcano🌋. I think that would make it even nicer at your place. U got an awesome house.
Thanks Brandi!
Dang man, im jealous. You’re living the dream my guy. Happy for you and keep it uo 🤘🤘
doin my best Franky! It aint easy ill say that much, especially down this new KZhead path. Thanks for your support my friend, if youre ever in the North end of the state let me know!
That's a cool house bro! So cozy and calm.
Thank you! I’m pretty happy with it so far
"There is a bunch of bird shit up on the wall" put that on a T-Shirt 😂
Lololol let’s make it happen
Beautiful home and life that you’re building. Always great to see content whether it’s bmw related or not. Make sure that you’re watering the potted plants often enough. They dry out much faster than an in-ground plant.
Thanks Robert! I’m trying to make something special here at home. Mini farm style ! I’ll keep that in mind, they sure do drain quick
I’m on the hunt for the next bmw project as well. Just sold the second $500 325i that I’ve bought in as many months. There’s a 330ci with such a bad turbo build I almost wanna buy it to see how bad it is lol. Also a sweet non-running E28 manual I’ve got an eye on.
@@robsweekendgarage sounds like youre well on your way to the next one! I have my eyes on a few but just received an email yesterday about a 65k mile E30. Looking at it wednesday, fingers crossed!
E30 would be sweet! Trying to get my son into them - he’s 11. He said “they’re so boxy!” Yes isn’t it awesome?
make boxy cars great again! lol youre raising your boy right!
Can’t wait to see those weed plants grow! See if you can find some blue dream clones because those are super easy to grow outside and have a high yield!
Same dude! I’ll have to keep an eye out, I think these were some indoor varieties …
You are in a really pretty part of the country and have a great starting point to creat a nice life for yourself. Its an exciting place in life to be. Congrats on your first home.
Thank you Bog! I’m lucky to have found this place. Appreciate your support as always. Trying to enjoy this life as much as possible
@@DayOffDIY Awesome Alec. I sent my apologies to your subscriber mommymonkey...I was directing my comment to you. Wrong insertion point. My bad. Sorry.
@@bogusienombre355 its no worries partner! hard to discern these things when typing over the web browser. Hope all is well! :)
@@DayOffDIY no worries. just readjusting climate to normalcy again. Hope your part comes as early a surprise.
Thanks for the share man, that 2 post lift really would be at home out there.
Glad you enjoyed it! Right? I’m dying for a lift
That hot tub video was so satisfying
Glad someone enjoyed it! It wasn’t a very popular video for me
Try using road flares for your gopher holes, light a few and put in the holes
I got some leftover from the fire season too. And some gopher bombs I bought too. I’ll make a video on it! Hahaha
Hey hey hey. I just thought of what u should do with the fence. I think it would be neat if it was painted bright yellow or like green with graffiti on the inside to make it your style. Maybe some skull stuff and car stuff on there. 😊 just an idea. I’m rewatching it.
That would be a fun idea!
What a cool and different video! Great content bro
Thank you enrique!
You and your girlfriend have such a beautiful home! I haven’t followed you for very long, but I don’t know if you have said or are not going to say where you live, but if it’s California it might be Ukiah or Crescent City and if it’s Oregon it can only be in the southwest corner near California to be where the coastal Redwoods grow. I know that Coast Redwoods only exist is a small area down past Santa Cruz, Califonia.
hey mitchell, i do live in California but prefer to keep things low key!its a small community, so i try to keep things private and i believe in localism so i try not to advertise the community that I am new to.
@@DayOffDIYAlec, you are a wise man. I will continue to admire the beautiful Redwood groves.
ever since i started to watch i’ve been genuinely curious on what your story was and after watching the first bmw video of yours i’ve been invested in your content, i’m always learning and always intrigued on what the next project is. even if it isn’t all bmw it’s still a breathe of fresh air when you mix in just random projects within your life & i appreciate you getting real with us gr8 video as always man i’ll see you on your next day off 🤙🏼🤙🏼☀️
You’re awesome Brandon, thanks for the support dude. Trying to keep things fresh and turn the channel into what my vision is for it, your support makes it a lot easier. Cheers!
I have also "coração de boi" which are my favorites, I think you call it brandywine tomatoes. I have cherry and normal tomato and of course, letices :D
I like that name way better! 👍🏻 Tomato growers unite! They were doing not so good last year without the greenhouse but the tomatoes and peppers love it. Thanks for the comment amigo
love it! can't wait for the new project. I just installed a new MAF on my e39 and it stalls directly after starting. Not sure if this maf I have is bad. Really happy with the Shell helix ulta/ pensoil platinum euro pro oil though. good price and nice engine sounds for whatever that goes..... peace and good weekend edit: interestingly the old maf is working fine, but the sensor itself is loose in the housing. I can still drive with it but I can imagine some false air is coming through....
Hey Ivor! Can’t wait to show it off. Did you install a factory or OE MAF? I’ve had lots of bad luck with aftermarket mass air flow sensors so I try to stick to OE when I can, even though they’re so damn pricey
Got a new fishing video comin today I’m pumped on!
seems like a nice place. enjoy it bud! classical guitar player? I saw the nylon string on the wall.
Great first home. I’m trying to learn! Don’t know much yet but I’ve always wanted to learn guitar. Still learning chords and basic scales and riffs 👍🏻
Labores? I know what it means I just think it sounds funny when you say it. I for sure spelled it wrong. 😂😂
I had a problem with gopher s when the hole is open i used human hair in it. Or i put animal blood down the hole, i usually save the blood from packaged meat.
I’m going to give that a try! If I shoot my first deer this year I’ll try to save the blood. Where do you get the hair Kim?! Lol
Do you have to replace the part on the truck thought you were gonna get it welded
New video is up on the truck repair!
How did you manage taking good care of Sage while working through fire season? I've wanted to find a dog for a while now but it feels like I can't swing it with my current job - lots of unexpected overtime means it's hard to care for a pup
I hear ya dude.. I actually got sage this last February in the off season and didn’t take the job offer this year, so never had to work fire while I’ve had her. She was one of the deciding factors that I couldn’t go back and need to stay committed to KZhead. I know some peeps that do have pups and make it work during fire season but it’s usually due to family being nearby or having to board them while on duty
I’m going to count how many times u say ghetto and make fun of u 😂😂😂❤
yea I'd nix that out of your vocabulary. That's is a welcoming signal for everyone.
@@bogusienombre355 please don’t talk to me. I was only talking to Alec. That is rude.
I think he was talkin to me? Idk 🤷🏽♂️ I do say it a lot though 😂
@@DayOffDIY I felt like he was budding in our conversation. Sorry. I’m weird. I wasn’t being mean just direct.
@@Mommyhas2smokefirst Sorry. I was directing that to Alec. My apologies.
Gorgeous property! Here in El Paso where I live is very difficult to growth and do any gardening. I am strongly considering trading the garage queen lady convertible 2002 330ci with 68k for a 2003 E39 M5 with 111k with one owner in Tennesse, however he is asking $38k! what are your thoughts on this vehicle when it comes to the maintenance side of things considering, I am just learning thanks to you the basics to do. Thanks for all your videos!
Thank you Julio! That’s where my BMW flip project is going! Keep an eye out around town! :) E39 M5 is my dream BMW. Can’t wait to drive one again, such an amazing car. Maintanence isn’t that bad in my opinion, they’re solid engines. Not too knowledgeable on what a good price is or not, but it sounds like a real gem!
Yo Alec, do you have an Instagram?
I have a personal but not one for DIY yet… I ought to make one. You can give me a follow if you’d like @alec_van_auken
