 Hey, this is James from trial, Ontario Canada a look watching trucker Josh blocks Good morning everybody Time to bring this truck into the shop got to get this hood release cable Switched out today. Well, the shop is working on that. I'm going into Winnipeg with Britt. She's meeting me at the shop and I got to go for some Like some tests and stuff. It's our fertility doctor. So I got to go there and Do my thing make sure everything's working, right? but Britt is meeting me at the shop. I'm gonna hop in her vehicle and we got to run into Winnipeg and I got a doctor's appointment today I'll go in there and speak to the good doc and other than that. I think I'm gonna got a couple more errands to run around So it's just gonna be a running around kind of day But I figured I'd take you guys with me in the wife mobile at deacons corner Petropas Had to make a little pit stop for the wife Yeah, we're on my way to my appointment See how it goes. It shouldn't take too long There it is We'll be in there next month I haven't told the vlog yet. Oh, so we're doing for our anniversary. We're we got front row seats to Cirque du Soleil here It's been on my bucket list for about 15 years. So There it is. It's the Amaluna show I don't know It's like a pretty small tent. I thought it would be bigger than that Yeah, the Cavalier tent was bigger, wasn't it? It was yellow or orange last time wasn't it? No, it's just white. Oh, no, it's fancy Yeah, it's got swirls. We've got the fancy circus in town bit of a rainy day, but man Fall is here everybody fall is here Look at these all these leaves half them have fallen already. This was so thick remember that Well, you guys got a water dribblet Pardon me Raining very lightly. Yeah, all this stuff is poking out again One of these years we're gonna have to tow this out of here So much to do all the time so much to do we do plan on Getting all this dead fall out of here as soon as possible It's just there's a been so many other projects that have been at the forefront this summer It was the roof we got that done So maybe we can get some of this done next summer Or maybe this fall yet who knows I'd like to get it done in springtime before everything grows and It'd be a lot easier to get all of it out of there then All this everything all those dead stuff Chop it up cut it up split it up Use it for firewood Well, the creek has gone down a little bit. It's still pretty high. It's still just roaring right over that beaver dam You can tell it's making a bit more of a rapid there than before but most of it's been washed away This here got washed away. This is way wider Just eroded right out from all the water I have a feeling that the beaver is starting a new dam a little further up the creek there Give you guys a look at it. Look at that There was a beaver dam there Then we got all that rain They got a little bit of renovations to do now, I think you might have just started a new one over here come check this thing out Little over here. Can you see those logs across the creek over there already? I don't know if it's actually a new dam, but unless if this wood seemed to just Magically place itself exactly right across the creek right here like look at this all this flattened grass diesel Excuse me. Excuse me. You're on the trail man This is my trail Look at this here You think that just happened by chance that those logs got laid across the creek like that? That would have been really strange for that to happen on its own The other dams down there Pretty sure they started a new one here crying out loud guys like How many dams do you need? right diesel Crazy beavers. How about you Chevy? What do you think? I? Think they've taken enough Wonder how many there are Well, good morning everybody It's morning once again, and I know this vlog has sort of been all over the place because I filmed a little bit yesterday Filmed a little bit the day before now. We're feeling a little bit here today We're sort of making one video of my time at home here I went to pay for the repairs on my truck yesterday I was very pleased that it wasn't nearly as expensive as I thought it might be That was a nice surprise Got a bunch of errands done got my passport all done What else did I do? Nah, all kinds of stuff. I'll kind of you guys don't care. Okay, so we're enjoying another day at home today when I'm filming This is Saturday. It's Saturday morning right now. I got up before Brit and so I took the big guys with me out here for a walk just to Get them out of the house because it's it's hard to sleep when they're awake because they you know Like to wrestle a lot instead of just telling them to sit down and be quiet I figured we just go outside and we can be rowdy out here so we came down to the creek here to check out our Creek situation and if you've been following my videos lately You'll notice or you'll remember how I talked about how this creek got a lot bigger Lately that's the beaver dam right there. That's the creek's gone down a little bit So you can see the beaver dam sort of poking up a little bit more than it was before But this part here has fallen into the creek Eventually I think it's gonna erode right through right through this and Connect with our pond which I'd be okay with because this is supposed to be a swimming pond, right? But I've got to drag the bottom out yet and I've also got to get a water pump So I can pump water from the creek over this into here so that it raises the levels a little bit, right? But it's supposed to be a swimming pond But eventually I think this creek is gonna just feed right into it. Whoa almost fell. Yikes Don't want to fall in the water now But the reason I'd be good is then it would keep this water moving and fresh I'd always be a supply of fresh water into here and this water wouldn't get stagnant or you know full valgy and stuff I keep it moving. It's just then I can't control how high it is Unless if we dam the river further down there I got to talk to my beaver friends here and get them to build their dam over there then so that the this part of The creek rises and feeds into my pond which makes the pond rise and then you know they get a little habitat I get a little swimming hole Everybody's happy right? I wouldn't mind if they helped me out with that So I don't mind the beavers because that you know as long as you don't like Jump on them or step on their tail. They're not really gonna bother you as soon as they see you or hear you They're gonna take off and go hide in their den So I mean if they want to hang out around here as soon as we come out to swim in the swimming hole They're gonna take off anyway So I'd rather them not be around here, but if they're gonna be around here. We may as well work together, right? So this is their last big dam that they had here. That's been washed away. Where's my boys? Diesel Chevy. Oh, you're on that side of the pond there. I see you. Okay. All good guys I just want to know where you were So that's been completely washed away pretty much right there completely They're gonna have to completely rebuild that which I'm not really happy about because now they've got to take down more of our bush Hmm Maybe they moved on I don't know, but I have a feeling that they Like I showed you in the last clip or earlier. I don't know if that was in today's vlog or yesterday's I don't know where where I put that but there's uh Something new being constructed over here Come on, chef It's like let us go into the into the bush here. I should probably mold this down next year At least this little pathway see this here I don't know it hasn't gotten any bigger But I don't know if that was put there naturally it doesn't look like it looks like a beaver did that Not a very good dam. It's an amateur. I've seen a lot better than that Beaver's got some Some experience to gain I guess probably a baby beaver. It's learning Way too many beavers This is Canada after all, you know the beaver is our national animal, you know in the US It's the eagle the mighty eagle swoops down on its prey Canada We're the beaver that's our national animal. So and they're everywhere. They're everywhere every little creek has beavers in it I don't know where their den is but somewhere around here. I Got a little walking path sort of like this that I've beat down that goes all the way around way out there, but Country life, right? Like I said before in past videos, they got to do it. They got to do I got to do what I got to do We're both sort of You know pushing each other around for territory here They don't recognize my right that the Queen's given me to this land So I don't recognize they're right to it either So we're in a little bit of a battle for territory here, but so far we're coexisting at the moment As long as they stop taking like they took down a huge tree over there again As long as they think I wish they would just build a dam and just you know maintain that one But they always build it and then it gets destroyed and they got to build another one gets destroyed Gotta build another one and meanwhile like those tall trees back there like one once before it used to come all the way up to the creek here, but now the beavers have Cleared it all the way to there and I see I see my wife She's come out of the cave She's awake. Hey diesel mom's out here diesel. Come here. Come back here. Come on Chevy. My wife has awakened Diesel come on Frankie big Frank. What are you doing, buddy? Weiner they got everybody out here now You sleep good I guess we'll catch up with you guys later Hey, this is James from trial Ontario Canada a look watching trucker Josh blocks
