THIS CANOE IS TRYING TO KILL ME- Part I. Off Grid at our Remote Property, Episode 15
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Back at our remote property in the UP, I have a couple things to do... put a check valve on the hand pump on our new well, and get the canoe to the lake.
Sounds simple enough, but this remote lake just happens to be a mile away down a rugged trail on a very hot and humid day, with millions of mosquitoes and horse flies swarming me. OH yeah- and I'm using my homemade modified golf bag cart to transport that 80 lb. Grumman canoe. What could go wrong?
Watch me sweat, swat and NOT swear! (I wanted to!)
The struggle was real.

Ball valve, check valve.... whatever!
The ideal thing to have for your pump would be a "foot valve" just above the sand point. That allows the whole vertical pipe to stay full after you finish pumping. The "foot valve" is a true "check valve" with a metal insert to keep the water in the pipe. Good luck with the property!
@@westend3019 the water in the pipe would freeze and burst the pipe in the winter. Using the ball valve as a check valve is a great idea, they can let the pipes drain back out when it gets freezing.
Girl in the Woods you’re Not Safe w/o Chaps
You and I are so similar! Haha♡♡♡
You are inspirational!
Hi Brooke, your rendition of Staying Alive had us in stitches!! That was superb!! You're a woman after my own heart!! Thanks and love from Scotland, x.
I don’t know how you didn’t lose your mind with all the mosquitoes. You can hear them buzzing around the camera. You go girl!!! I’d be gone. 🤣
It never fails to amaze me how many people will see a person who CLEARLY knows what they're doing, has decades of experience, and takes safety very carefully..... And then lecture them like a young irresponsible child. You go girl!
Lizzy...ever portage a canoe on your shoulders for 10 miles being bit up and in the heat while wearing a heavy pack? Just do that.
Staying alive....my favorite 'Girl in the Woods' episode so far :).
You truly amaze me! You have such a drive inside you that most people don’t know exist. Your non-stop attitude and being so positive in a difficult situation just puts a smile on my face every single time. You should be getting paid big bucks for entertaining us. Thank you for sharing with us and thank you most of all for loving Jesus and not being afraid of sharing him in every video!
Thanks Friend! God Bless!
Fantastic vlog episode, Brooke. You never cease to make me laugh, educate me, and inspire me to get more active. God Bless you! Covered in muscle, packing a pistol, and fixing a well pump...the best vlog scene I have watched, period.
hahah yup
I am 71 and I have lost most of my hearing - mostly due to using a chain saw. Wear hearing protection. Imagine what it like not to be able to hear the birds! Good hearing aids cost $5,000.
Yes sir! I've taught all my kids that from day one. I learned it from my Dad.
Life jacket please
My HUSBAND would have a fit if I was out there alone
@@sherryfulghum3494 she does carry a knife and a gun. These days she’s safer in the woods than I am in my own house.
Same with landscapers too. It’s funny how no one really thought about that before. Unfortunately your generation were the Guinea pigs for my generation. Thank you for the lessons that you learned the hard way.
There is no-one more miserable in the heat than me. Complain, grumble, whine, gripe, lament. You get what I"m saying. I'm miserable. You at least were able to cope somewhat. Good for you.. I hope part 2 serves you better. Be blessed friend. I like the fireworks , duds or not.
Thanks for taking us back to your piece of paradise...cooler days are ahead I'm sure.:) Just love seeing your joy in this video and others ..about the well! Keep dancing...it's a gift! ❤
hahah thanks
Stole my heart when you blessed your food. Loved it.
Hearing those bugs flying around are making me flinch and itch from memory! 😩😖
You have grit and determination not seen in many people today. We'll done I loved the video. 😊😊😊
You girl are one with nature. Your out their alone. No fear. I salute you. Brooke.
I’m struggling to understand how 80+ degrees is so awful. But I’ve lived in south Louisiana all my life so I guess it’s relative. 🤷🏻♀️ Hell…80+ degrees down here means it’s late September or even October and our first cool front has pushed through and everybody is busting out the gumbo pot! Seriously, I want to move to Michigan because of this channel. It’s helped me survive the summer.
Wow too funny you dancing and singing to “ Staying Alive”!
Nice relaxing video for us who are overly stressed . Much thanks from Oregon.
i am in my sixties, tinnitus is no fun, please get good ear protection and use it.
glad you carry, essential
You are one tough cookie. So glad you water thingy worked. . Such an achievement. Love watching you.
You might need to sturdy the pipe for your water pump, with all the shaking when you pump water eventually it will get loose in the joint under ground , that happened to me before
My thoughts exactly. All that vibration isn't good on the joints.
🇬🇧 I thought that the day they fitted it. Needs 2/3 lengths of wood wedging down around it.
Definitely needs to be driven down another 2 feet, leaks are in its future....... A nice pallet foundation to stand on and keep the mud under control would be nice
Small concrete pad that can easily be broken up if repaires are needed
That's exactly what I was thinking. Pump pipe needs to be stabilized above ground. I'm sure Dave's been formulating a plan of some kind.
You are amazing!! I thought of you and your inspiration when I brought out the old tent I got a couple of years ago. Tent -check Fishing gear - check Firebox and cooking gear -check. 3 more weeks to go until vacation!
Girl in the woods you are a Natural! You always keep it simple, wild and funny! Love it!
😊 thank you
Those no see'ems are the worst. The way they bite you is they have these scissoring mandibles and when they land on you they keep on biting you with a scissoring motion until they draw blood.........and then they enjoy the cocktail of your blood. And their bites itch so bad. By the way Brooke, it pleases me to see you are armed. Good for you girl !! Signed, Doug.
yes they make me itch the worse!
Your day was relentless. Even on those days you pull through with a smile. That tenaciousness inspires those of us, whose every camping trip is relentless, to keep going. Happy 4th (a tad late) 🇺🇲
Blessing~
thank you
Not to mention positioning the tripod for the camera for the perfect shots. Believe it or not, that’s a lot of work.
We went camping a lot in our twenties and then we grabbed a pop up in our thirties. It was like staying in the Hilton !! 😂 now I’m 55 and sleeping on the ground after two neck surgeries and degenerative disc disease, just ain’t happening lol I hate campgrounds so I wouldn’t mind doing this. Getting a piece of land in the middle of no where with a cabin and just daydream my life away. I’ll be staying in New England cause those bugs they have here are nutty, and I’d be nutty after about an hour 😂
26:09 when you bend down and you can see all those deer flies! Whew girl! That’s a tenacious spirit you’ve got 💪
If I did what you did in the heat I would be in Afib with my heart!! Wow you are one strong lady!! Thanks for sharing! I need a nap now! You make me tired! Lol!
LOL
My favorite part was when Maisy started to sing Stayin Alive with you. So awesome.- Carolyn
You are truly an amazing and incredible woman! Being lazy or no can do is NOT in your vocabulary.
hahah nope

I was born in Allegan, Michigan and as a young boy I hated the mosquitos and black flies and humid heat. We moved to Florida when I was 9 and mosquitos, no-see-ems were really bad there, but after drinking sulfur water for a few years they never bit me any more. I took a trip through the Everglades Wilderness Waterway and they did not bother me at all, but my friend from New York was eaten alive because he lived on city water his whole life. In going through swamps I found where there was a heavy sulfur smell (smells like rotten eggs) there were no mosquitos or other bugs, but when we got to some Indian Mounds where it was dry the mosquitos were bad again, so the smell of the water in the swamp was bugless, just the opposite of what most people would think. Now I live in the mountains of Montana and no bugs and no humidity.
Just love all your energy and always so willing to go that extra mile to get it doing . Nothing gets in your way love your channel
Thanks so much
Lol omg u crack me up ! I love it yr just so real ! Love your Videos I bounce back-and-forth between watching bush radical and girl in the woods absolutely inspirational !
Hey Brooke,
This is Callie,
Don't you worry about those pessimistic folks regarding the chainsaw usage on your show, whom throw their two cents in ... when they really don't know how skillful you truly are Brooke! just by watching your previous shows in early 2019 I could already tell that you're very careful as a skilled hiker and survivalist! So therefore that makes youvery conscientious of what you're doing at all times doesn't matter if your lighting the fire, or working a chainsaw!!
By the way Brooke, I ordered a red "She Gone" hoodie and a crimson/red t-shirt with you and Maisay on it "Get out and get happy!" from your Bonfire campaign! Just want to let you know that I also put it on Twitter, and Facebook to spread the word! I will be wearing both my t-shirt and hoodie with pride!
I recently told the merchants who sells me the survivalist with compass and all about you and your show girl in the woods on UA-cam, which he ended up checking out and subscribing! Because he thought you were super awesome!! I didn't say I tell him I told you so, but I sure had a smile on my face that said it! I'm very proud to be one of your subs, fan, and friend! Thank you so much Girl in the woods, there's not a UA-camr on UA-cam as super cool as you! 👍🙂💓🙂
Happy 4th of July to you too Brooke! 🇺🇸
so cool thanks callie take care :)
Callie Nash - You’re No friend to encourage her to take risks with her life. Shame on you !!
@@therealgirlinthewoods
Your welcome Brooke, you too!
Keep up the awesome work you do!
I just love your UA-cam channel! It's the best ever! And it keeps my mind off of things!
Have a great day!
Hey Brooke,
May I ask a favor of you?
could you please pray for my son he's in the United States Coast Guard sector New York. He not only saves lives, but he does boardings on ships that come in from other countries, he stops drug trafficking, human trafficking, and terrorism. Plus he does search and rescue. He's in the law enforcement side of the United States Coast Guard. Well... his whole fleet which is a group of four guys, contracted covid-19.😢 He's been in quarantine for nine days now ... fighting this covid-19 on his own. While he's in the best shape of his life. And he's a man of God. And I have faith in God too. I'm still a mom! And I'm worry sick!
I just asked for you to pray for him! I so appreciate it immensely! I could use all the prayers in the world that I can get. Thank you so very much!
God bless you Brooke! Please take care out there!
With love,
Callie Nash from Apple Valley California 🍎
@@callienash1798 I will pray for ur son...
@@renee2994
Aww thank you so very much for your prayers, I sure appreciate them immensely!! You're a gem!!
God bless you Carrie Wright and your family ... please stay safe!! 💕
Brooke, you are awesome ! Love your tenacity ......
Oh man I dont know how you moved that canoe without the bug shirt. Just the sound of those mosquitos is making me itch everywhere. You're amazing.
Luv the check valve job. As far as the canoe cart goes you may want to purchase a "Tomato Cart" brand. Very portable and you can even keep it in your canoe for portaging long trails. This old girl loves hers and helps me move it around the yard when I get home. 🛶👍😁
The dancing and singing staying alive definitely my favorite part. Well, that Ruben looked pretty tasty too. Stay cool 🍻
Really admire how you set your mind to something and no matter what you
GET IT DONE.
Enjoyed the video. I'm with ya on the heat issue. I find it difficult to function when it is too hot. I guess that' why I like winter. I'm weird that way. Lol. Stay cool Brooke.
Right on
Yep!
I do not function In heat. Love fall and winter. Take care of yourseld❤️🙏
Brooke, I’ve been watching you for a long time, absolutely love you and your videos. You are a shining star, an absolute rockstar in the wilderness.!
Oh...oh....and just one more thing!! Your rendition of Staying Alive was incredibke!!! Lol!!!!
Ok....I'm gone!
Sure do admire your tenacity Brooke‼️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😎💜
Brooke, you truly are the bravest woman I have ever seen. I'm literally full of anxiety just going to the grocery store right now in South Florida. Watching you strengthens me and I'm always in awe. God Bless your sweet heart and courageous spirit. - Your Sister in Christ also.
Hints for cooling down use a cold wet small towel around your neck, ice water is the best! I used to do this working in the kitchen doing dishes, really helped. Also to replace electrolytes when sweating add lemon slices, sea salt and a tsp. of honey to some water, stir and add ice!😀💗🌌
My hair is long and thick enough it keeps the bugs off my neck pretty well. And I rub Citronella leaves, which I grow in my yard, on m hands to keep the mosquito away. But I like to wear long sleeve shirts to keep the mosquito off my arms. I had been wanting to buy some new light long sleeve button down shirts, but they're "out of season" so I couldn't find any at the store, and when I do find them they're usually at least $20 each. So I started searching online, and since they are "out of season" I found some on sale! With the addition of a discount code that I had, I ended up getting the shirts for about $6 each. At that price I bought 10 shirts. I'm not sure I have ever bought more than 1 shirt at a time in my life before (other than t-shirts, because they come on packs.)

Your golf cart reminded me of when I used to golf. My cart was one someone had thrown away, and it didn't have a bag. So I tied a 3 foot piece of PVC sewer line on it to put my clubs in. Since I lived in the mountains and had no lawn, I played what we called "offroad golf". The last time I went to a golf course I got paired up with a guy and a girl who was loudly bragging about the Pro Am she had played in a few days earlier. The first hole I let her go first... since she was the "pro". It was a short dog-leg to the right. She slammed it straight into a house. I saw her laughing at my sewer pipe golf cart and 100 year old wooden driver with the leather on the shaft starting to unravel. I curved my ball around a big pine tree and half way up the fairway. I got par on the first hole, she got a bogie (1 over par). A few holes later my ball went off the fairway and was sitting on an asphalt walkway. She tried to tell me I needed to pick up the ball, walk to the edge of the walkway and drop my ball at arms length onto the edge of the fairway. I said "nah, I'll shoot it from where it's at." I pulled out my "woman's" 9 iron (I'm a small guy, most my clubs were women's) and popped the ball right up on the green near the hole, and ended up getting a birdie (1 under par.) She finished that hole but then refused to play with me anymore. She just couldn't handle having an old offroad golfer with a sewer pipe cart and pawn shop clubs showing her up like that :>

Learning to survive heat is a learned skill, just like learning to survive cold is. Keeping your shirt and pants wet helps a lot. And getting a small towel wet and use it to put some water on your arms, legs, and face. Then put the wet towel on the back of your neck. When it gets 115+ here, most every summer, doing whatever it takes to keep cool is your main task for the entire day. Survival skills. I've had heat stroke, and it's not fun. In hot weather if nothing else I can always eat fruit. Canned peaches is a favorite in hot weather, even better if you keep them in the fridge or ice chest.
always love your comments Duck- thanks!
i rub the Citronella leaves on my hands, etc too. I find if I get it wet it works even better. I'm also finding that Peppermint leaves are actually working better. I keep both plants near me on the patio at night also. What about trying a high grade essential oil like peppermint from doTERRRA.? This week I'm getting bit by these tiny little things that look like a black stick. Maybe only a 16th of an inch long if that big. I have no idea what they are but its like a fly bite.
Duck, I always keep my shirt wet too. Helps a lot. Also keep my hair wet and keep it up in a bun under my hat. Now keep in mind this is all just to survive my backyard in Florida, I'm not the unbelievably brave woman Brooke is . . . just surviving the heat and bugs while gardening and enjoying being outside.
I found the best long- sleeves button down shirt. Columbia brand name "Omni shade" Summer sun protection. 40 UPF rated
Yes I only bought one because they cost $60 for size XL
@@missingremote4388: $60 for a shirt! Wow, it must be a nice one!! I got 10 shirts for $60, and to my surprise they actually fit me! I'm only 5'6" tall but my arms are the same length as my 6'3" tall friend (a handy attribute in my younger years as an amateur boxer. Comes in handy at the dinner table too :> Usually if I find a shirt with long enough sleeves, the pocket it down on my stomach and the shirt is big enough to use as a pup tent. I ordered 10 shirts, they only had 9 in stock so refunded $10 (even though I only paid $6 each). So ended up getting 9 shirts for $50, so $5.55 per shirt.
You go girl, no way I would have took that boat that far.
Brooke, good news, canoe is 3/4 way there; bad news the canoe is 3/4 the way there. Love ya , Broogke. You crack me up. I am so glad you are my sister in Christ!
Me too. Brookie is a hoot. Love to you both my sisters in christ.♥️
Hi Brooke...you had me swatting bugs & sweating just watching you work!...You are one tough no quit lady!....Nice video & tks for sharing!...Take care!
Hi Brooke , your looking beautiful as always , have a good weekend ! 👍😃❤
Brooke I love your ' Staying alive' song... made me laugh. My favorite place is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and I love being in the woods and sitting around a camp fire. Since I can not be there all the time, I have your videos to watch. Thank you for sharing with us your adventures and the outdoors. My new motto is: "Get outside and Be Happy!'.
An anti-bug suggestion: Put your clothes you plan on taking to camp with you in the dryer with either dryer balls or a few wash cloths wetted down with some kind of bug repellent oils or cedarwood and peppermint essential oils. Put them in the dryer together to help permeate through your clothes to help increase your bug protection when you put your clothes on, same with a neckerchief that you might want to consider wearing even though it's hot. Great Video, good luck
Great idea!
The oil doesn’t compromise the inside of the dryer, or catch on fire. That’d be my luck lol I would love that smell even with no bugs. I thought the same about a neckerchief to keep the bugs away from the hairline and neck. I used to put a tshirt on, then pull it off but leave it on my head and tie the sleeves around my neck. Sweat band for my head and bug protection for my neck and back. This bug situation they have is next level. I’ll never complain about mosquitoes in New England ever again. Of course ours have some nasty diseases they carry.
What would be a reason for anyone to give this a thumbs down? It was a great little video,full of a positive attitude, even when things went wrong. The only thing it could possibly be, would be a negative jealousy? Just what this world is getting too much of these days. I Thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks!
thanks cheryl
I think there are trolls who just go around and 'thumbs down' stuff without even watching it. It's mean but there's nothing to be done about it so it's best to ignore it.
we burn alot of sage to keep bugs away here,~~~~,,good job Brookey ! love when you sing!! lol !
hahaah that really was just me being stupid
@@therealgirlinthewoods ,,your great! fun sense of humor!! plus I love Bee Gees!!!!!
Great Idea on the valve....It Works!
As my brother used to say, " What a WOMAN "! LOL So glad you're back on you tube l missed you and the Maze!
I was Raised using a Pitcher Pump and very Fortunate that we had great cool drinking water. It is very hard to enjoy a place like yours when bugs are steady after you, this is the reason that I like the mountains of the Ozarks, very few bugs flying, the chiggers and ticks are in the woods but bug spray will keep them at bay. I enjoy your working Habits and I know that it will be Great as you have a lot of Fortitude and Drive...
Omg Brooke!!! I just about DIED watching you!!! We're in South Florida....where mosquitos should be the state bird....and when I kept hearing all the bugs buzzing away.....good heavens!!
And the heat?? I would have sat under that well water and just pumped all day! Forget the lake!! Whew!! Also....just one more itty bitty thing. Can I please just add......get yourself a small 12DC oscillating fan.....Amazon has the cheap......and use your energized solar generator in that tent!!! IT burns almost zero watts. Ok.....Ok....I am shutting up now!!
I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight with visions of a canoe 3\4 mile from a lake!! 😉
bahaahaha
@@therealgirlinthewoods 😂😂
You’ve got a great attitude
Hubby got me a new pair of headphones: he’s sleeping, it’s 3:16 am Friday June 3, 2022. Wanted some ME time. So here I am with you!
Born in 1942, in the city-girl era of girls don’t do these things. I’m in absolute envy of you.
Have a friend in Michigan that was bit by a bunch of black flies, she was able to crawl to her neighbor’s home to get help, and her neighbor got her to the er in time. She now carries an Epipen 24/7 because she almost died with an allergic reaction from all the black fly bites. Finally convinced her to carry one in her pocket while in the house. As I said to her”what if you’re in the house, and one bites you and you go into shock? She lives by herself.
My ex husband was at a golf tournament and a guy got bit by a bee and died right there in minutes. He had forgotten his epi pen in the car. My other friend had some seafood and we were out at a bar they were playing a gig at. Over the course of an hour or two I watched his face blow up and his eyes were almost closed. Had to get him to the er. He never had an allergy before. That’s the scary thing is you can get them any time in your life.
Looks like the canoe carrier needs a redesign asap. LOL Might be time to consult bush radical on that. As always great spirit. Don't see anything stoppin the "Girl in the woods."
I found your channel a couple months ago and have been binge watching your videos. This is one of my favorite one so far. I love your go get it attitude but sometimes it’s good to see you struggle so it makes you human like the rest of us. I live in Arizona but I’m from Lake of the Woods in northern Minnesota so I know the mosquitoes in the heat and humidity struggles. I love that area but I don’t think I could handle the mosquitoes. So beautiful what you’ve done here. Thank you for the encouragement to get out there and get happy! I found her channel just when I needed it most!!!!!!❤️
You go girl sing it make the world happy 😊 and I say yes --nature’s woman ‼️‼️
Hey Ms. Brooke! Happy to inform you that we are trying to purchase land to build a small home on. Thanks for your continual inspiration on getting outside and enjoying nature, life.
whoop whoop!
Whew. That heat and bugs had me itching too. You are a tough lady. 💖
Oh my aching head girl!!!! Your killing me!!! I’m laughing my butt off watching this but on the other hand I feel so bad!!! I wanted so bad to climb into this video and help you haul that dang canoe to the lake. Never mind all the trouble you went through to get it there but then you had to deal with that god forsaken camera too. Back and forth back and forth!!! Oh girl I’m so sorry for laughing but you were so funny!!! I love you to pieces!!!!❤️😂
Love this video with you and Daisy singing staying alive, and the pump is working,,i hate black flies and mosquitoes too, have a good weekend.
I was itching just watching. I'm originally from the Grand Rapids area and I dread visiting in July when the mosquitos feed like cannibals. Last year, after my trip, I purchased a full mosquito net suit and still have ptsd from the experience. I could just see you wilting from heat exhaustion. Love the Hat deer fly patch! Genius! Outstanding job on installing the check valve and priming that well while mosquito dancing. I can think of a nickname for that big arse green canoe monster but its not suitable for a family channel. Happy 4th and Bastille Day! It's always great to see your videos pop up. Oh, and when we do fireworks, its tradition to yell "Fire in the Hole!"
hahaha thanks i'll have to remember that!
She , my friends, is a real woman!
AMEN!
Next time you get to home depot or any store see if they have yard guard spray, to spray around area to keep bugs away for few ours : )
She's a he-man! lol
Good to see Maizy. Been missing her. Love watching your property updates.
Great Vlog Brooke!! I’m sorry about the canoe troubles, Omg’sh, I felt for you, because I can’t do extreme heat 🥵 at all. And you handled that and those bugs like a BOSS!! Oh yeah, and I’m adding Reuben ingredients to my grocery list now..lol You’re always making something good!! 👍🌷🍀🌻
Thank you so much!!
I love have you are so real! You could have cut out all the troublesome parts but you kept them in because that's how it really is out there and you have to consider if you're up to all that but it is so rewarding to be out there in the wild and so empowering to be alone. And carry on.
You are truly amazing Brooke. RESPECT !!!!!!!!
Brooke, you need a sturdy truck dolly. Me and my campin' buddy started using them. A game changer! Lol!
Get a solar powered generator and run a small fan. Those bugs are relentless. I cant sleep at night when its so hot. I went camping one time it was so hot i thought i was going to passvout. I had to get in my car and run the ac to get cooled off. I bought a fan to run at night it was still hot but at least it stirred the air around. Take care be safe.
They make battery operated ones too.
Yup... they do I have one ... combined with some rechargeable batteries and a cheap solar power system to charge em up you’ve got yourself a bit of free cooling power 👍👍
What a coincidence! It's July 17th in our "undisclosed, top secret location" in Michigan's Lower Peninsula and the mosquitos are about as bad here as they are there! That Reuben looked awesome, Brooke! Thanks for the fireworks (and who knew "Stayin' Alive" could be so much fun?) Stay safe ... God Bless
hahahah
Watching you, I started to itch in my living room. Love your determination though.
In case your interested, your original bug shirt {same with the pants} is to be worn with nothing under it. You will stay much cooler & more comfortable. I bought my 1st in 1998 & would never B caught without it. Ontario black flies, horse flies, yellow jackets & huge mosquitos, are >Relentless
You are so determined and courageous! I am always inspired by your pluck and resolve! You are WOMAN and you will GET IT DONE!! 🙌💪👊
Thanks for the bite! It was delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Currently, I am a Michigan girl living in a Georgia world. At some point, I will be relocating back to the TC area or maybe, Petosky. Like you, I have a really difficult time with hot weather.
You are an amazing woman! I tell everyone about you. 👍🏻
Oh my goodness girl, you are a strong strong woman! My husband and I wanted to jump in there and help you!! We felt so bad for you trying to get the canoe down there. You work so hard and we appreciate all you do to make these videos so awesome. Thank you!!God bless you!! 🤗💕🙏
Thank you so much!!
Brooke was flexin' like "WHAT!" 😂 Coincidentally, I was literally making my plans minutes before this video pops up in my feed to finally finish painting my canoe.
hahah
What a rough day, but your sandwich looked great! Now I need Part 2 and see that darn canoe in the water. I know what you mean that once you get too hot it'll stop you in your tracks. You're the gal I want on my team. Part 2, here I come!
You are the best what a girl God Bless you 🙏❤️
An interesting twist on a proverbs 31 woman!
Ok, please read.
I could hear the mosquitos on the mic. The bandana on your wrist,,,wet it totally ,dripping, the wrap around your Neck.
Coraded Artery will help you cool down. Even moving around, if it drys out do it again.
Or spray the bandana with bug spray, put around your neck or wrist.
Next buy a mesh head screen.
Add one mesh top like a shirt that breathes. Cotton in your ears to stop the sound of mosquitos. Saw that on Naked n Afraid. I'm envious of your massive strength and love of quiet. More videos please aND thank you for sharing.
You should pick up a cheap, used 4 wheeler to store up there.
So glad I found your channel. Thank you UA-cam for the suggestion!.....and thank you girl in the woods for your channel!
You are so welcome!
Yes, it is too dang hot in the U.P. this summer. Looking forward to cooler weather.
In the past you have requested for your viewers not to skip ads. The first one was for Ad Blocker (lol). Every few minutes another ad. I watched each one all the way through except the 10+ minute ad and I let it play through but I also checked my emails while it played. On your old Coleman Stove there is an LP gas adapter for it. You also would need a gas hose and a 20 or 40 pound LP tank. It would prevent you from pumping the white gas tank. You mentioned heat, We have been in the mid 90's with a feel like temperature of 105-110. The heat wears you out no matter what. I am going to hate to see my electric bill and I am running the A/C at 80 trying to conserve and using my microwave instead of the stove to keep the heat down. Take care and keep doing the great job you do. Stay health, stay safe and keep living your dreams.
thank you much!
Still like the ideal of the canoe carrier just needs some adjustments
Yes, like the control bar to the cart (directional hand -grip) needed to be tied off. But with mosquitoes like that even thinking becomes difficult.
🎵”Being bitten Alive ive ive ive Bitten Alive Bitten Alive”🎶 Lol. You actually have a wonderful singing voice. And you got that well pump working all while the flies and mosquitoes biting you too. Isn’t there anything besides fire that will keep those bugs away? It is amazing what you accomplish all on your own. After the first round of mosquito bites I would have been gone. lol
The heat is like those summer days when you can't do anything even carving without sweating, miserable.
You go girl im inpressed ! Thanks for sharing
You kill me when you said you weren't putting on that greaay sticky mess. I laughed so hard my sides hurt. You are one funny lady. I've missed seeing you around. I watched Bush Radical and your son yesterday at the cabin. They collected rain water and cooked up a good breakfast. Are you not making as many videos.? I like watching you and if I offend you in as anyway I'm sorry. I dont want to make my people mad at me. Stay safe
I’m so glad to see Maize back. Y’all have a good time and keep safe. Love your show!🎀🎀💗💗
Doesn't it need something to hold the whole pipe still while you pump it it moves a lot
Loved the stayin alive cover lol....Cara my wife said more like eaten alive eaten alive.😂
😂😂😂😂
Do you carry extra bullets??? 🤣 And yes, definitely wear ear protection with those power tools. Damn bugs, I can hear them on the camera 🥴
I’m wondering if bears are a problem where she’s at. Apparently not since I’ve watched about 20 of her videos and not once heard of a bear sneaking up.
Just hearing the flies and skeeters is making me itch!!!!!
I’m with you. I keep pausing the video thinking they’re in my room 😂😂
You dont have to justify what you are doing to anyone in regards to safety. Just do your thing and carry on chilling me out :-) wonderful channel with a wonderful presenter.
Just loved that second bite! Yummy! Those bugs were awful! Tomorrow the canoe to the lake!!❤️❤️❤️
thank you for praying before your meal. Your Christian values are awesome. Nice work today. It's gonna be a hot summer!
