My garden was going well-I was harvesting and canning a lot. I’m thankful for the gift of being able to grow a garden and that it was so productive. Our son was diagnosed with cancer a couple of months and the first chemo treatment went terribly wrong-he had a reaction that resulted in 2 major surgeries. Anyway long story short. We were in our son’s city for about 4 weeks in July and August. He’s beginning to get a little stronger but he has a long journey back to wellness. He has a wife and 3 year old who need him. God’s been good 😊. Would you please remember him in your prayers. This mama heart would sure appreciate.
I have tons of stories to tell you. My niece lives on Maui with her 1yo daughter & husband. Shes a nurse practitioner, & they called her back to work so fast, she couldn't even process that her home, her inlaws' homes & 3 cousins' homes were gone. Sooo sad!! My stories are as long as my arm. THEY COULD HAVE GIVEN THEM MORE NOTICE. BTW. 😢😢😢
Your caulifliwer is green because it is sun scalded. You didnt close the big outside leaves around the head when it started forming. At least thats what it means here.
My heart breaks for those who lost their lives in the fires, when I found the Maui fire hit almost cried because I had a Mother daughter trip in 2020 Very fun memories we had. And the pictures I saw brakes my heart all the places We went, and the people we meet
I am so tired of being hot in Texas. The last two days it has only been in low 90's but every day for the last 30 it has been over 100. Not uncommon to have 105 and high humidity...no rain for more than a month...danger of fire is great!....I am so ready for cold weather!! God Bless you guys!!
To have white cauliflower, you have to wrap the leaves over it to block out light! It'll turn color if the bigger leaves don't cover it. Did you know broccoli, cauliflower, and one other plant is exactly the same but only different because of the flavor? Tiktok taught me that!
Hello Somers family. The garden was still quite good. A little hail, downpurs. Bravo, good work in the kitchen. Have a beautiful day in the USA - Alaska. Bye. Rudi.
Bless you for what you are going. A one bedroom apt in an old building is 1700. Mo. I sometimes feel like Bert is the only decent man left on the planet.
Hunker down up there!! Just an fyi:: we are seeing our Oaks start to turn colors! It's gonna be a weird winter.. the caterpillars are getting ready too! Central Florida is not ready for what is in store..to come!! Jus sayin 🤷🤔!! Our rents are insane right now..$1800 for a large 500sq' efficiency apt, condos that were listed at $180000, 6 months ago,( a 40 yo condo) is now $230-270k!! And the buyers are buying ,sight unseen!!?? Luney toons! C ya on the next video! 👋🐺🧙♂️🦊🤙
It's been so very hot here in the lower 48.Miserable😢.Lots of gardens didn't stand a chance ,unless there was water close by.God Bless you guys for making a difference up there! Hugs from Missouri 😊❤
In Colorado we started off having a rainy spring in April until June. It started drying up in July now it’s been hot in the 90” s we need some rain now .
We have sooo many fires here in Alberta. The whole province was on fire in May and now the Northwest Territories is on fire and we’re getting evacuees here
Ive even got my 9 year old Daughter now watching as she's seen me watch so much and she is so excited. She wants to move and see you like now, haha. Sorry for the fires 😢 Xx
God bless you and your family with your caring hearts and your love for people. I will take winter right now, 115, here. ariz.send Alaska our way..lol❤❤❤
You are a beautiful person. You guys give back more to the people then the 1% of the wealthy people that run this country. Also do more then ALL the Tubers that take advantage of this great state but never give back to it. God clearly sees you and will continue to bless you and yours 😇😇😇
Summer here in Texas will carry on for quite a while. Yesterday it was 109 which is one of the highest temps recorded in this area. Wow! the cabbages were huge some of the largest I have ever seen.
Well my garden burn up from heat. I got enough potatoes for a meal. The rest heat got it. We have over month 110 plus days. My daughter said to find anything to rent is hard. She rents a run down 2 bed 1 barley working bathroom and AC has broken twice. Her breaker box broke and caught fire and her attic has no insulation. Has to pay 1300 a month and that's on the cheap. So she struggling with rent and light bill. My grandson started school this week. He in a private stem school this year . So excited, he loves it. Have a blessed day.
Loved the vlog. You all live life to the fullest. We had air quality of 400 a while back here in Pennsylvania. It was horrible. So very sad for the people of Hawaii. My problems seem small compared to what they are going through. Love you all & have a blessed week. Debbie 😘🙏
Greetings from Missoula, MT 😊 Whenever I watch your vlogs, I feel more peaceful and grounded; your family represents wholesomeness, which I wish was more prevalent in this day and age. It is so refreshing to connect with such GOOD, loving and energetic people. Granted, your lives in AK are more challenging due to remoteness, weather etc, but you love and embrace it. Thank you for sharing as you do - it is enlightening for people to witness and hopefully it helps enrich others' lives. Love you guys and wish all of you the best, day after day. I love how you reference W and S! I can relate although, we don't experience it like you 😉 Take good care and be safe ❤
Holy moly your garden sis it did really well! ❤️💜❤️ As far as renting I’m no longer in the renting side. I bought and I’m so glad, cause renting market is just craziness.
Mahalo Nui for your prayers and support! As you mentioned, the situation in Maui was very similar.... there were only a few roads in which they had to escape, some of reach had live down power lines on them. 🙏🙏🙏
I live in southern Kentucky. Rentals are scarce, and new apartments are being built, but often times they make them so luxurious that they are not affordable for most renters. Just moved our son and his wife into a 2 bedroom apartment... but had to go out of the city to a small town to find anything affordable. Now he has a 40 minute commute to work. Love what you guys are doing in North Pole.
Commenting a few days afterwards..love your garden! When I saw the cabbage I immediately thought of Eggroll in a Bowl. Its Carb friendly & kids love it too. You can basically make it your own. I ❤ that you rent to a family below rate. My daughter and SIL & 5 yr old Grandson live in Montana..last yr they had to move from Missoula to Choteau (pronounced Choe-tow) bc Rent was going up from $800-$1100. Ironically they found a 2 bd house for $600. The landlord rents to my SIL family & gave him & my daughter a break. Which I'm thankful for. When she found a brand new stove on FB a lady was remodeling homes & didn't need it. The stove was $1200 w the tags still on it. The landlord gave them 2 mos of free rent for it..& the lady selling it wouldn't take the $ after she found out they were newlyweds. Ppl like you guys make the world better ❤
Happy summer to Somers Family, hope you enjoy your summer, my hearts and prayers goes to those who affected by the fire in Maui,Hawaii, my condolences goes to the family lost their loved ones,Thank you for your videos, sharing the news
Texas here too...we have spent the last two days outside catching up on yard work because it was so much cooler..not looking forward to 107 they say it will be this weekend....
It's my 40th Birthday today and my husband bought me another journey tote and a canvas bag ❤❤❤ He doents watch you so I have NO idea how he knew there was a drop. But I'm SO SO SO excited. We live in australia and they arrived in time also so you got them out super quick. I have the larger Journey tote - first gen in saddle. So he got me green which I love that it's different. Re housing. My parents live in the 3rd largest city in Australia. Their house is in an affluent area but not the most expensive, and their house (4 bed, 2 bath) was valued at $2M. We live in a small rural town. When I moved here 17 years ago you could buy a 3 bed, 1 bath house for $120,000. I have family that just sold for $550,000. It's nuts for our area.
Wow! I usually see your videos...days, weeks, sometimes even months later. I haven't watched the entire video. I just wanted to say hi. My prayers are definitely with everyone. ❤ Our family absolutely loves your family!
Happy Wednesday, SOMERS. I hope you’re have a safe day. I am glad you’ve enjoyed the TANANA valley state fair in the last video. Plus, I’m glad that y’all enjoyed your summer. School is already underway. I hope you SOMERS have a safe summer. Continue on your road on getting the gold play button.
I just had to smile, from South Africa here, and we long for summer like you guys long for winter. It gets hot in summer but we enjoy it. Funny how we addapt to our parts of the globe, Winter is your preference as you have a loooong winter and we prefer summer as that is our longest season... Enjoy your videos and sharing your part of the world with us. Good luck, enjoy and be blessed.
Housing is in crisis here in Australia. There’s less rentals available so when something comes along there are around 100 applicants in my town. People have to pay big money for rent now and those who can’t afford it are forced to live in cars or pitch a tent at the beach. I know it’s a very widespread problem here. I think less houses were built during Covid and more people moved out of the bigger cities so regional areas had too many people move into the towns and snatched up whatever was available and pushed the prices up. 😊
Your vegetable garden. looks like it’s thriving how productive your crops are . Thankyou always for such relaxing contact after a busy day. Much appreciated
Prayers going out to y'all that it doesn't end up like Maui. Continued prayers to Hawaii. We are still getting smoke from Canadian fires here in Virginia.
Just wanted to say thanks. I have had some health problems for the last. two years and can't always get out and do things I want to do. I feel like I am doing them with your family. I had to laugh when I saw your mother cleaning the river bank. She is just like my mother.
From what i have heard from friends who live in Hawaii but not affect by the fires, they had a warning and alert system in place but high wonds knock down the communication system so they had no warning. Its a real shame how quickly ot spead how many have die 😔
It’s suppose to be a high of 110° this week in west Kentucky we are so ready for winter we probably won’t even have “fall” weather until late November 🥹 I would love to live in Alaska
I can't get over how much your garden has grown compared to those who live near Anchorage (those cabbages)! You've had a summer and they are just now getting some sunny warmer days after so much rain and cool temps. What does fireweed jelly taste like? Cute photos of the family and grandma working the pond!
Here in Louisiana, we're starving for rain. Our community water system continually goes down and we then have no water. It's super, super dry here. I'd love a few days of rain straight. On your canning, you aren't suppose to push the lids down. They'll pop and seal on their own if they are closed correctly. Why so much sure jell? I never use more than 1 and maybe a half for all my jellies.
Got to finally make blackberry jam yesterday!! Only got 3-4 cups of from the vine blackberries, but it felt good making my own :) If I ever find fireweed I'm gona try to make that into preserved jelly. Fireweed honey is our favorite so I'm certain we would like the jelly. God bless and keep you all.
You sure do make jelly different than my mama did. She only used one package of sure jell to 7 cups of juice and she never waterbath her jelly ever and she was also told growing up never to poke the lids down. They will pop on their own as they cool and seal. Because if you poke the lids down yourself, you won’t know if they probably sealed or not.
So true, you never touch the lids until they are 100% cooled. If they didn't pop down on their own they aren't sealed properly. False seals are a real issue.
Arizona is also hot and I can't wait for winter too. Have a awesome school year and learn , study hard, bless you all, look back last year school and see the changes for yourselves. Take care 😁👍
I live in a destination area - only affordable housing are apartments and those that are low income fill up immediately. Average price of a 2 bedroom apartment is about $2400!
Love the “weeds are loud and proudl!😅 Love some of your expressions, like Holy Molly! Haven’t heard that much, but it always makes me smile! I live in a small apartment owned by our church! Rent is only $500. and only pay for electricity! Our rent goes to help others and different mission groups! It makes me feel good that some of what I pay in rent goes to help others!
I had a landlord like you.....he kept my family alive for 20 years....I kept his house in good repair and he loved me for it...I miss you Leo G....
I thought the same thing: “You are like my landlord.” God blessed me through them when my income lowered and he lowered my rent! 🙏🏻❤️
Wow!!!!!!!!! That's a giant cabbage!!!!!!!!!!😮😮😮
My garden was going well-I was harvesting and canning a lot. I’m thankful for the gift of being able to grow a garden and that it was so productive. Our son was diagnosed with cancer a couple of months and the first chemo treatment went terribly wrong-he had a reaction that resulted in 2 major surgeries. Anyway long story short.

Prayers for you all.
I'm praying for your son's total healing, and Christ's continued blessings to his family.
Prayers for your family. 🙏✝

Yes in Alaska, when the Fireweed flower blooms get to the top of the sten, Summer is over.
Prayers for Maui 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The cauliflower is green because you need to wrap the leafs around the head to keep it white when it's growing.
Lived in Fairbanks for 5 years...changes in a blink of an eye..LOVED living there
Hello Somers in Alaska❤❤❤❤❤❤plus Castner❤
Love from Maui ❤️ Thank you for your support and prayers.
I have tons of stories to tell you. My niece lives on Maui with her 1yo daughter & husband. Shes a nurse practitioner, & they called her back to work so fast, she couldn't even process that her home, her inlaws' homes & 3 cousins' homes were gone. Sooo sad!! My stories are as long as my arm. THEY COULD HAVE GIVEN THEM MORE NOTICE. BTW. 😢😢😢
We live in Kentucky and are blessed to have a home that is paid for. With everything going up I don’t know how we would pay a mortgage too.
Olivia has had a huge growth spurt, she has really changed in just a few months!❤
Your caulifliwer is green because it is sun scalded. You didnt close the big outside leaves around the head when it started forming. At least thats what it means here.
What a delightful family you are!!!! ❤️
My heart breaks for those who lost their lives in the fires, when I found
the Maui fire hit almost cried because I had a Mother daughter trip in 2020
Very fun memories we had. And the pictures I saw brakes my heart all the places
We went, and the people we meet
Very bad here in Massachusetts Bert, every thing so expensive thanks Brandon

@@skyeblue5669 sorry that's for my two bedroom apartment. Electric is outrageous because well everything is electric, water is ok.

If you wrap the leaves of your cauliflower it will be white! The sun is what changes the colour ☺️
It's wonderful what you do to help people have a roof over their head. God Bless you and your family.

Just a tip pushing in your canning lids can create a false seal. Your home is beautiful!
It took my husband and I about a year and a half to find a place.
And also I am ready for fall. Baking yummy treats and crockpot meals
Very odd!! I have my thoughts on it for sure! Prayers with them all! Devastating!!!
So here from southern ca....storm is here 😢please pray for us ❤

Hello Sommers. I know the feeling. Wild Fires of Canada shut down the schools in NY..AND NJ in June. It made us sick.

Maybe she was taught a different way? I’m sure her jelly came out just fine. 😊
