- How we cope, what we drive, where we shop and what we buy. Big expenses and thrift store scores on a marathon shopping trip to Wasilla. Rainy days and special days; the loneliness and the canine companionship. The challenges and the rewards, the efforts and outcomes. What it's really like to just live in the off grid wild world of the Alaska bush.
Ever so grateful to you for sharing, in such beautiful detail , your tranquil slice of paradise on the lake❤️ I can “ feel” myself sitting on the dock soaking up the majesty of life on the lake, your video taping is superb, …I can see why you are drawn back ever summer, it is in your blood and in your heart to be in your slice of heaven on earth….keep ‘em coming and I Thank you for doing so..Happy Birthday and remember it is not our age that guides us it is “ how we feel, the way we think and how we approach life”:that determines our life❤️

CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 and Happy Birthday, youngster!
Thank you my old friend!
If you are burning a lot of oil and hard to start, try checking for fouled spark plugs. Wont help burning oil, but may start easier. Happy Birthday!!
Thanks!

Happy Birthday🎉 You're an August girl like me 😊 I hope you'll still have some really nice summer days to enjoy. Greetings from Spain.
Thank you! My birthday is actually in July; there's a time lag between the filming and creating and publishing of these videos so add a few weeks to whatever point I'm at in the newest video. :) Happy Birthday to you, August Girl!

Quote-worthy scenes galore! "Who's not a sucker for baby ducks and stuff?" ...and.... (referring to mediocre saltines and soup) "They make each other better...they're given a chance -- an opportunity - -to uplift someone else." Thanks for cracking me up a bunch of times during this awesome video! HAPPY BIRTHDAY and welcome to the sixties. 😍
Thank you my friend! :)
Look forward to your videos. Happy 60th birthday. Hugs. Love the gorgeous companion dog. Greetings from australia

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday :) 🥳💃🥳
Thank you!
Same here. Except we had horrendous winds which drove the rain sideways. Destroyed one of our storage tents and we received a barge delivery in the mist of all of this Alaskan weather!! And if it wasn't for the fact that Fairbanks had a Value Village my wife would probably never go to town again. And she may not anyway. Currently she is in Seattle for a week and she is not a happy camper. Take care and remember our MOTTO: Buy more blue tarps!!!
I forgot Happy Birthday!!
Thank you!
Cleaning and organizing the cabin would make you feel cozy.
Yup. The cabin is still in the process of being rebuilt so all that stuff in the back corner is building insulation stuff, and there's nowhere else to put it so I had to live with all that for this summer. Chinking caulking and insulation hasn't happened yet but I started on the chinking and caulking so stay tuned! :)
Happy Birthday!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday
Thank you!
I love this video i just found it
Yay! Thank you!
🎂 Happy Birthday 🎂
Thank you!
You have open eves and plenty of air gaps. You have absolutely nothing to worry about with the heater.
Yup. Just being extra cautious because the heater is old and everything it's connected to is old as well. Plus of course my mission this summer was to make all those gaps start disappearing!
You take your lawn chair in
You take your lawn chair out
You take your lawn chair in
Then you give the sky a shout…… 😁
Soynds cozy
Happy belated birthday ❤
Thanks! It was wonderful!
Are there gaps in the vertical wall boards? (looked so when you were opening grocery box)
Yup. The cabin is still in the process of being rebuilt so chinking caulking and insulation hasn't happened yet. I started on the chinking and caulking so stay tuned! :)
Why not work on the cabin a little bit! Might enjoy it!
I did and I did! I picked up all the chinking and caulking stuff in this episode and soon you'll get to observe me making a mess with it all!
Where is yr husband?
Happy birthday 🎉❤
Thank you! Jack had to stay in Oregon this summer but hopefully will go up with me next summer!
Happy birthday
