  • Oliver is getting so big. Before you know it, he will be right by your side helping you with all your projects.
  • From my offshore drilling career: slow and steady equals fast.
  • Whoever does your camera work also deserves a hooray. Excellent production all around!

    I love your "digging" videos. I was a ground man most of my working career and still miss the good old days of working in the dirt. Thank you. Makes me feel like I was there with you.
  • No matter what you film you guy’s always have my undivided attention! You are both very captivating but Oliver is still the star! Great job on the passing inspection. Courtney’s reaction was priceless 🤣🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
  • Convincing prank! Having dealt with Inspectors, some always find something to justify their position and exert their authority. Love the pragmatic/ no ego inspectors out there, congrats!
  • @8:00 Riley explains, not in so many words, exactly how and why apprenticeships work. Classroom training is one thing and it's good for a lot of folks. Apprenticeship, in-depth on-the-job training, puts a newbie with an experienced hand and gets them lots of exposure not just to practice but also philosophy, the rationale that underpins the practice. Put understanding and practice together and you have skill.
  • I have to say again how awesome I think your editing is. I think your viewers take for granted they're great every time, but I'm sure it takes you some time. And I just wanted to say We Appreciate Your efforts! The angles you get and interesting perspectives you splice together make it so enjoyable to watch. So, thanks Courtney!!😅

    My only experience with putting in a septic system was as a teenager back in 1972. A neighbor of a friend was asking for people to help shovel the dirt back in as there was no money left for renting heavy equipment. That was a large field of those stones you talked about, multiple legs to it. Never was quite sure who the homeowner was, just spent a couple of hours with a few other people shoveling the dirt back in. Just thinking about being that young and working that hard makes my arms and shoulders ache. Think I need a nap ... 😴
  • Hey neighbor! This brings back memories of installing my septic in pouring rain up at my place near the lake.

    What a great system! And as an ex Caterpillar Sales Manager - that's one gifted operator! (And the guys who 'placed' that big tank sure made it look easy! You're so lucky to have found such qualified suppliers and helpers! Congratulations on your new system - this is going to change a lot! You'll have so much time on your hands... what's that??? A sister for Ollie you say?

    I think it’s hilarious and apropos his first words I hear are “oh oh” makes sense with Reckless Riley!
