OMG, Bert! I was in your video. That was me in the rainbow crocks, on the plane. You followed me out into FIA. I live in Oklahoma, and rotate every three weeks. I wish I would have seen you, I would have probably fan boyed out! Me and my wife LOVE your family so much. Thank you for sharing so much with us.
That’s amazing! You were so close to a celebrity!
Evelyn's face when Bert and Jessica was hugging! 😂😆🤭
Thanks! I enjoyed seeing the General Store & your family. 👍
Everyone can breath now, Dads home! Mom is happy, life is happy, daughters are happy,the house is at peace n Garret is learning great things from Dad..in the every day...
Balance is restored, once again..."Dad is home"!
Very informative and respectful. Love that you bring home gifts. Father always bless this family..amen
Bert, thanks for sharing where the oil field workers would stay, eat, and the store. The look on Evelynn's face when Bert and Jessica were hugging was priceless.
Dad, 3 brothers, my late husband, 2 sons all worked the Slope. The early 70s when things were just getting rolling we’re a whole different place from today. Still, it IS unique! Thanks for sharing what’s happening now!
Valdez -the terminus, such amazing memories when they didn’t even close Thompson Pass so I drove thru at midnight one January to pick up hubby at camp - with many monster-size trucks who prob didn’t even see me as they rebuilt the road…at 35 be.ow. The stories we could tell up here….
My ex husband had a year long workplace affair up there with the Eskimo maid
The scenery is phenomenal... prices are random. Some items are within range and others are sky high. Gas is about the same as CA. Loved being part of your trip! Thank you!
Those pajama bottoms £45 was crazy!
The difference is the cost of gas up there is all economics, in Cali it's all tax/socialism. Up in Prudhoe there's a legitimate reason for the price, in Cali it's just to line your champagne communist leaders pockets.
@@willcresson8776 it’s not socialism in California! Do you think if socialism,
communism, humanism, or whatever other -ism there is in California, prices would be so high? It’s because California has for many decades been a ridiculously desirable place to live. At least on the coast. Perfect climate, for one. So they drive up the cost of living to ridiculously high rates to keep the rich there, drive the poor out, and make the middle class live on the fringes. Population control. Socialism is about equality for all with everybody just living comfortably and not much else. California is hardly the place.
Bert, whoever it was that you met that said you guys are inspirational are spot on! Its a blessing to watch you and your family grow and share your lives with us Happy Peoples!
I love Ice Road Truckers. I think the motto for Deadhorse is "A Town that far with no bar"
The gifts were a hit! I loved seeing Evelyn's face watching You and Jessica cuddle upon arrival home. 😎😇👍🙏🏻❣️🤗
the views from the plane of the mountains were so beautiful made my day!
I don't know why but I was so emotional watching this video....I know Jess was so happy and those kids pure plum attacked you when you got in the door...You are definitely inspirational and refreshing....
I got a good laugh at Evelyn's face when you and Jessica were hugging!
Holy moly to the prices in that store and the gas prices! Glad you got back home safely Bert!
Gotta remember everything is trucked in or flown in Prudhoe bay is kind of a logistical nightmare compared to like Anchorage
When you work the slope, you gladly pay those prices .
So precious When the kids hugged Burt when he came home ❤️❤️❤️.:. And how much he loves his family
The snow on the mountain was awesome. Evelyn’s look when you & Jessica were hugging…. Priceless. 🤣
I laughed out loud when I saw her face 🤣😂Agree that it was priceless!
Yeah I was cracking like crazy with her look too hahhahaha
Those snow-capped mountains when seen from the air remined me of oragami.
My mom remembers being in Deadhorse, AK when she worked the oil fields. I asked my mom about it the other day.
Love seeing these Rural parts of Alaska. So interesting. Thank You for sharing.
Such an interesting place. Surprised at the camps but probably shouldn't have been since it's so remote. Thanks for sharing your experiences! Glad you made it safely back home. 🙂
Camps are very Common. I did live in a place in Sk Canada we didn't have camps . If you have no camps you get a housing allowance .
Camp environment is a serious problem particularly for native women in North Dakota. Not nearly as regulated as Prudoe appears to be.
I worked up there on and off for 34 years. Started in 1979 and left the the last time in 2013. Also worked at a pump station for over 6 years working two weeks on two weeks off. All except my last six years of work were traveling away from home. Some jobs took me all over the state.
Well that brought back memories ! My wife and I have a photo in front of that store from a road trip up there in 2010. New Mexico to Deadhorse and back, 5 weeks and 10,000 miles. Gas was about the same, if I recall. Inside of the store hasn’t changed much either. Spent a couple days in Fairbanks, and of course visited the Santa Claus house in North Pole. My mom got one of the “square inch” deeds from her uncle back many decades ago. We found the park, and sent her a photo. Thank you for these videos, and god bless you and your family !
In the late 70s / early 80s, the store the bus went to on Wednesdays , was called
‘Childs’. It had lots of stuff, how giddy and excited we were to get on the weekly bus to Child’s !
Loved the 🎶music in this video and Bert sharing his time with us in Dead Horse...I miss your family like it was mine...I don't think you know how much we all love the Somers family you are truly a blessing to watch...especially while the world is going crazy the Somers bring us some "normalcy" ❤ ❤❤❤❤
True.
I didn’t like the music in this video. The twangy singing got really annoying.
@@tobythomas3413 Modern blues 🎙🎼
Been 25 years since I’ve been up there. Pretty cool to see the sites again. Thanks for the tour.
You’re such a good man and picked out the perfect gifts for the family❣️😊
This family is definitely a blessing everyone I haven't met them personally but feels like we know them watching them and following them. It's awesome how they include their children. Their love for God is so evident. Such a blessing for sure. 😊
Oof, stuff is expensive there. Interesting how the "camp" is the only location to get a fresh meal. At least you were able to add your sticker to the wall 😁
My husband works on a rotation to Prudhoe Bay. He just happened to be home when you're uploading these. So cool to see what it's like!
*update. My husband is IN the video at 12:24 and 13:08 ! He's the guy in crazy tiedyed crocs 😂
@@shumate86 that's hilarious!goes to show how small this town is
@@shumate86 what a time to be alive
Bert, Thanks for the Ride-a-long!
Anywhere that you go, is a breath of fresh air! (Even if it's a "minute" getting away from the fires, floodings, hurricane, drive-bys and so and so on..
So interesting seeing the oil fields. My late husband wanted to work up there so bad back in the 70s. Those mountains were stunning. Thank Bert
Thanks for sharing - loved the quilted appearance of the mountain range as you flew over it.
Thanks for showing us the store.
Safe travels back home to the family.
Thank you Bert for taking us to amazing places !!! It’s so fascinating to see all the different areas of beautiful Alaska!!
My hubby goes up there occasionally as he's in telecommunications. He fell in love with Alaska that we made the move happy people!!
Glad you made it home safely. Thank you for taking us along. The mountains were so beautiful. I think you were missed. 🙂. ❤️
Loved the tour. My husband used to work there. I have 2 brothers working there now. I kept looking at all the faces just in case they were in the crowd lol.
~~~ Bert ,, yes people wait to see your videos. And in every state people know your family picture. More people day\dream about moving to Alaska because of your family videos..Bert everyone LOVES you..
Your channel; is most definitely the highlight of my day. I have gotten to know you all through the many videos I’ve watched and I just think you are all the greatest. Lots of love from this Canadian to our friends we love you ❤️❤️
You are inspirational! What a testimony your life is because you don't try to proselyte. You just live normally and conviction speaks for itself. Thank you for your transparency and honesty.
that was so sweet, the last few minutes when you got home. i know the feeling of being back with the most important things in life. i liked being away doing my job, but i loved coming home even more.
Having been to Barrow 26 times and having landed in Prudhoe a few times but never got off of the plane.....I am thankful to have The Man home back in the lower 48 and WAY closer to home! Greetings from Central Idaho and right now the land of the Big Smoky Everything.
As always I really enjoyed the video. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for showing us the store. That was very cool. I also loved the look Evelyn gave you guys when you hugged. I felt the same way at her age. All I could do is smile.
I really liked seeing the diversity in the terrain from the airplane. Wow. The mountains to the luscious trees. Beautiful !
It so nice to go hone with a little something for the family even was one night ! U are amazing dad ! Be safe !
Hello Somers family and happy peoples. ☺ Stay safe everyone. ☺
Thanks for sharing. I was there the second week of January because I wanted to see a real Arctic Winter. I stayed at Brooks Camp and went to the store a few times, and walked from Brooks Camp to the Aurora one time. When I walked to the Aurora and back it was -38F with a -55F wind chill. Later in the day it was -36F but it got windier, so it was -67F with the windchill. I was just there as a tourist, and I loved it.
There are a special kind of people that can do that kind of work. Thanks for sharing. And your beautiful family 👪
I hope all is well with you in Alaska prayers for you all 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️✝️🙏🏽🙏🏽🇺🇸✝️🙏🏽🇺🇸✝️🙏🏽
I clearly enjoyed your video I got so involved that when you got in the door at home I had tears of happiness for you because I know what it's like to be away and come home to your family
God bless you all 💖
Always fun to see a video from your family. Thanks for sharing about Alaska!
The explanation of the oil fields and showing us what it looks like was so interesting. I had no idea that was what that area was like. So happy you shared, I learned a lot.
Thanks mate. I went there as part of a cruise package with Princess Cruises. I must say, as an Aussie, it was Polar opposite to where I live, LITERALLY but an experience I’m SO tempted to do again. As a bike rider I still cherish the beanie and balaclava I bought in the store for our “Winters” in Australia. Lol. Thanks for letting me relive it.
Fascinating about the camps and the store ! Glad you were up there before the bad weather ! :)
Interesting video ,those happy peoples were right you guys are inspirational . Those snow covered mountains looked awesome , and Evelyns face at the end was priceless .
Gas price was a shocker it's $3
Cheaper here in FLA. Mountains beautiful. What beautiful state.
Yay! I'm second? Prices are basically doubled in that shop. Thanks Bert!
There is also a Deadhorse Holler in Ky!! back in the day use to be the local beerjoint, and people would race cars there. The backwards car race was the best, cause the road was real curvy. Now there is not much there!
Thanks for taking us with you.
No idea of 'oil camp life' so that was an eye opener. Some beautiful and rugged country out of the plane windows. Interesting as I will never see it in real life. Dad was surely missed!
Your family is inspirational just a down to earth family…enjoying watching your vlogs…
Awesome Dad of The Year! Got everyone a Souvenir! Thanks For Sharing! ❤️
So, my city self never even thought about what an oil field operation as far as staff/ daily living would look like. Thank you for showing us around. You learn something new every day!
Love the gifts you picked for your family,
Thank you for sharing everyday Alaska. Cool video!
Nice salad fixings, glad your gonna see family soon have a great day
That place was so interesting . Only one store. ., Thank you Bert for taking us along .
Perfect way to end my night before work tomorrow thank u for sharing your wonderful family with us we love you all hello happy people's ❤️
It's it's great to see some of these places that I know I'll never get to see otherwise.
You do a great job!
The nostalgia! I worked up there for 3 summers and 2 winters. Spent most of my time at the peak base camp and a couple times at alpine
I love watching tv shows and video's about Alaska. I always wanted to go to Alaska.
I couldn’t agree more! Love coming along with you guys! Very inspirational!
Greetings!😁. Wow....those rugged mountains covered with that snow was just Awesome!😲. The shirt you bought is cute😁, the pink hat is pretty, the puzzle is cool (I love putting together puzzles)😁....bought my daughters so many puzzles and now puzzles for my grandchildren too!😁🥰, and the stuff animal is adorable!😁. Glad you made it back home safe! God Bless y’all family and all your followers!🥰
Thank you for this, my cousin lives up there... And I appreciate people like you just thank you for sharing all of this .... Your channel with family members who aren't necessarily able to be up there to see their loved ones...
Welded up there in the late 80’s early 90’s. Land of the midnight sun! Always worked with one or more people so when I had my hood down welding someone would be on the lookout to prevent a polar bear ambush.
I’m a new sub but enjoying the content and the murals you and the family have . God bless and I’ll be watching all your old vids too along the way
Enjoy seeing all parts of AK. Thanks for taking us along!
The price of gas shocked me! Thank you for taking us along! The snow covered mountains were beautiful! Bert and Jessica you and your family are an inspiration. Love and prayers ❤🙏 from NJ.
Thank you for taking us with you. Much love from Connecticut.🐳
Cool video, I was up there in 2018 brought back a few memories we road up on motorcycles and put our feet in the Beaufort Sea/Arctic Ocean. Yes we saw that anyone we came in contact with in Deadhorse was very friendly. Take care....
Really interesting to see how the camp works! Thanks for the walk thru of the store - for where it is and what it is, the prices were about what I'd expect. I kinda think those canned cocktail nuts with that decent layer of dust on top were ever so slightly past their freshness date... 😄
view out the plane widows was awesome. prices OMG., in that store. and gas prices high too. thanks for sharing hugs
A very interesting place. I feel I learn something new every time I watch a video.
Always look forward to your experiences...enjoy the Somers family everyday life immensely ...love and light to you'll...Bert your a fine example of a great man 💫🙏❤💡
Thanks so much for sharing another awesome part of Alaska.
God bless the Somers family 🙏. Just love watching, learning and growing in Christian love 💕 Thank you for sharing your life with so many people.
Super interesting! Had no inkling that life existed. HUGS from Missouri 🤗
Thanks for informative video. Blessings to all. Happy you got home safely Bert. From New York subscriber ❤️
Oh, I am definitely feeling the Alaska vibes.
Layers? LAYERS?! We don't need no stinken layer! Phhhhhhhh. 🧐
Thank you for taking us along!! Glad you made it home,safe!! I watch your video's every day,love them and your AWESOME FAMILY!! Virtual Hugs and kisses xoxo LONG ISLAND,NEW YORK,
Best part. Evelyn's face seeing her parents hug.
I expected those prices to be much higher. Thanks for taking the time to film this for us, blessings...
Wow! Your video takes me all the way back to 1985 when I met a guy and moved up to Seattle. When I got there, we immediately got jobs at a cannery way up in Chignik! It took 3 planes to make it up there. I ended up coming back to Washington to wait for him because conditions were just too harsh for me. His whole family was in the fishing business. His niece was the wife of Dave Rundall, who was lost along with his whole crew from the Arctic Rose. Such memories!
It was breathtaking to see the ice and snow Mountains from the airplane window. The camp seems depressing hope folks enjoy their time there. Because there is inly a few who get to see that area! Glad you home! ♥️
That was awesome. Thank You for sharing.
That was awesome to see! Thank you for sharing! I was surprised at the pricing being so far out I would have thought it was more expensive. Thank you to all who work the oil fields so many Americans thank you for your sacrifice of being away from your families for so long.
Great video Bert. Good to see and know what the bay is all about.
Happy Monday, SOMERS. I hope you are having a good day. September is coming up
On Wednesday, and the fall season will get underway. Much love and support to you SOMERS. The weather will
Be reducing in the fall season. Lots of leaves will be falling off the trees. I hope you SOMERS stay safe. Continue on your road on getting the giant gold play button.
That was great good job Bert! LOL
Alaska is such a B-E-A-UTIFUL place, a land of wonders... Hi happy people's! Hope you all are having an awesome day. Thing's are more expensive there but it takes a lot longer I think to get things to this place as opposed to here. Love you guys & your vlog, look forward to it every time it comes on. You guys are very special bunch of folk's and I'm glad to be a part of your vlog
