 Again, I just ended that first one. We had a little problem at the shop. Pretty easy fix. Got to take care of. So that last log, I ended up getting five off two by eights out of and one shorter one. You know, the first five are all 14 foot. The last one's going to be eight foot. So I got to stack these babies over here. We're starting a new pile because we're starting to get pretty heavy on that last stack and doubt that any hydraulics around here is going to lift that stack up as it is. So I'm going to stack these. You guys can watch me stack them and carry them over. And then I'm going to mill a giant log after this one. Pushing 100 anyway, carry in the lumber. Eight by 14 right there, fellas. One more. What's up, guys? I have to saw mill. As you can see, we had a little run going on with a live, if you missed that one. You could always tune back in. I think YouTube posts that as soon as I can. But stacking lumber, making roof rafters right now. Had a hemlock log. Got a beast of a log here. It's a little bit challenging getting it loaded onto the mill alone. But I've done enough of these where I can do it. Sometimes you just get in and out a couple of times. So I'm going to try it right now. Get you guys a vision of it. Gonna put the stanchions up. Wouldn't be bad if we had forklifts, but we got this rig that, to be honest with you, it's kind of a pain in the neck. Who's gonna watch that one get cut out? All right, we got a part two ice cream shops on autopilot, you're right. Yeah, it's just a small problem. Easy fix, easy fix, guys. So it's pretty great. I'm able to be over here milling. Yeah, it's gonna be wet this weekend up here, I think. Definitely working hard, Lane. Definitely working hard. We've got a beast of a hemlock on there now. Big solid. I gotta get that thing rolled and situated, so bear with me until I get it locked in the right way. This one's gonna be hard to move alone. But if it's round enough, it'll roll. I'll lock it in just in case, I don't think she's going anywhere. Get your measurement on the small end and the big end. Small end, we're looking at 19, we're looking at 20. So it doesn't shrink too much. It's just got a little bit of wobble in it. You can see it's down below right there. So I think that first cut's gotta be somewhere around 15. It'll be a decent slab, but yeah. So I'm gonna give you guys this angle for this one. See how you like that. And if you guys are just tuning in, I'm milling hemlock for floor stringers, looking for two by eights by 14s. These logs are like 14, eight, 14, six, 14, 10 long. And they range in from 15 to 26 inches around at the butt. So looking to get, geez, I ought to be able to get a pile out of that one. I take as much as I possibly can. So looking to get like more than eight out of this one would be awesome and some two by fours. I'll check back with you guys to leave comments. Ice fishing in Wisconsin. Lake Pattonwell, I'm gonna have to check that one out. It might be awesome. So yeah, so milling right now, I'm gonna get this thing going and you guys can walk me, take her down. I'm gonna probably take a couple extra big slabs off and throw them on the ground so that way I can manage it when I need to roll her over. Here we go. What did I say? I already forgot my number. I already forgot it. One roll, time to time. And I don't know what the situation is because every time Donny and I show up, our gas cans are always empty. Well, let me see if I got enough. You hate to see it. You hate to see it. Out of gas. Not cool. What do you think? You guys wanna come along? We bring both cans. We use water for the other. Do you know all the comments? Well, if you wanna check the comments. Yeah, I saw a roof is leaking bad. We need much of a roof. They're gonna fix that roof. This mill is like over 40 years old. Too much, I do think. We're trying to get this one last project out of it. I got lube for the blade. I don't know if you guys saw me stop and fill up the, with the blue jug. That's lube for the blade. Excuse me. So, it's finished on it. We need to fix it all so that we can fix it as best as we can. Back to 240. That'll bring back some memories. Some of you guys, I bet. Here's the apple orchard. Donny's mom planted all these trees. About 75 years ago, I guess. And she just passed. We're gonna run up to the gas station. Go get some petrol so we can finish this log. Real pretty house over here. Brown residence. Life skating as a kid. Learned how to play hockey there. Of course some buggy signs. Oh boy. So here's the Amish working on Jamie's place. Hopefully get it strapped down. Strapped down pretty good. Hopefully get that baby strapped down pretty good for this weekend. Cause I heard we got some wind coming. So it's gonna be pretty rough. So I hate to see anything happen over there. So there's a couple of Amish working on it right now and those guys know what they're doing. So I just hope they can get everything strapped down and secured before we get that hurricane. They're saying like 25 mile an hour winds, which isn't too bad, but you know, gusts could be severe as well. But if you're just tuning in, I'm heading to the gas station cause we'd run out of gas at the mill. Never want that to happen. We got, we're just getting to the good part of that log. Yes. This is Peasley's quick stop. I got enough in the truck. We're not going to mess around. We're just going to get a couple of Jerry cans and go. Yeah, going to get some gas for the mill so we can finish up that beautiful log. I was trying to count how many two by eights we're going to end up getting out of that. It's going to be a pile. This is the first gas can. Here's the second one. I'm at the gas station. We run out of gas at the mill and I'm needy into a beautiful hemlock log that I'm trying to get some roof rafters out of. So stopped operations. Gonna come over here and get some gasoline so we can finish the job. Ice fishing's coming Bernie. You are right bud. Oh, you said, oh, McBee said looks like your saw roof is leaning. Yeah, it's leaning. It's leaking too is how I read that first comment. Brian, do you plan on seeing you in St. Paul in December? Hope to catch you and Donnie on one of the lakes ice fishing too. That'd be awesome, man. We are pumped to do it. Back in business pretty soon. Pop that in the mill and we're back in business. I'm running out of gas right now. Wicked. That's what it is man right now. Wine day. I'll go slow so you guys can see these Amish working. They got no strapping, no safety harnesses or straps or anything. He's up there probably 25, 30 feet off the ground just walking on two by six. Stay tuned, you'll be able to see that in a minute I'm gonna turn you guys the other way and I'll go slow and hopefully I'll point it pointed at it for you. They're working on my buddy Jamie's place. He's built a real nice garage here in Jefferson. Yeah, I'm gonna slow down for you. Right here on the right, they're putting up they're getting ready to roof trusses. It looks like they got the first one on there. But yeah, he's climbing down but they've been walking. As you can see, they've been walking on top of that. He's on the left, they're putting trusses up. Pretty cool. One of the best maple syrup places right down that road and the hunt lumber and hardware on the right, they're gonna be bringing up some lumber for us, I hope. You guys are just tuning in. I had to stop at a really critical point on that log because we'd run out of gas. Not good. No good when you need to eat but you gotta quit. Lucky for me, gas station opened right down the road a couple miles away. How the hornet's doing? You shot got him yet? No, I'm waiting for a cold morning. So they're a little sluggish. I don't know, what do you guys think is the best way to attack those birds with a, I could fly the drone in their face. That's kind of fun to do and video. It's nice and cold, one of these cold mornings but I'll show you them the day before and I just watch them coming and going. They haven't bothered me yet but this is our turn. They haven't bothered me yet but you know it's just a matter of time. One net right out the woods. You pass the skid out of the box of woods road. There she be, the sun's always shining on the mill. Electric mill in the future, imagine, he is. We're back. That gas can might've flipped over. That gas can might've flipped over on that hard turn. Come up on me quick. Yeah, she flipped, hopefully she's not leaking. You over here, you son of a gun. Sucker and this pig and finish the job. Just tuning in now guys, I'm knee deep into this beautiful log, about to get her down to eight inches so I can give her a roll and we run out of fuel. We got some fuel pirates out here that I guess they don't know where the gas station is. I'm gonna write directions on my gerry cans so when they use them they at least know there's directions to the gas station. She's giving her a drink, she'll take all five. Fueled up, let's see if we can get her running. She don't like to start sometimes after that. I think she's ready to dance. One side's perfect, but I flipped it over and we got wrought, that's not good. I don't know if you guys can see that. See it right there, that's wrought. That's not good for a roof rafter. Shut my water off. And then you bring it around to the other side of the log. I bet you it's just as bad, if not worse. Dang it, oh what a shame. Shoot, hidden right in the middle of that log with some rock. Well, I can get like four or five out of it I guess and then I can double check and see what we're working with. So these cuts might get a little funky here for a minute. I was gonna take, this one's 13 inches wide. So I was gonna get a two by four and a two by eight out of it, but it looks like I'll just be kind of cutting around that rot and getting two by fours out of it. What a bummer, man, what a bummer. See what we can do, we'll do our best. That took forever, not my best log ever, was we were set up to be had some rot deep in the center of it, that one ended up a pretty decent amount of just various lumber. We didn't get what my target was, but let me, I'll clear this off. Got a lot of slab wood out of it, a lot of thinking, a lot of scrapping, get the most out of that, then we bought some good with the least amount of waste. Yep. All right, so I'm tired, I'm not gonna lie. That one took a lot of energy out of me on that one, but I got four, two by four, eight footers right there to start the junk log where we got the rot. As you can see, I'm just gonna turn this camera around. As you can see, like, see that rot right in there. Looks like the ants might've gotten in it. So I left that as a four by four. So that's a four by four right there, which we need four by fours for stacking the lumber on. So in this pile, I know I got one bad two by eight that's probably gonna get rejected. So otherwise I have one, two, three, four, five, six, minus the one, I got five excellent two by eights there for rafters. For two by fours, this one's got some wane, we can cut a rounder, we could probably use that for like a plate. We got one, two, three, four, four, 14 foot, two by fours. And then over here, I got that one eight footer. And I think I had those other four eight footers on there before from a different one. So all in all, I mean, no, Donny's gonna check these, believe me. Donny's actually pretty good on, he's pretty lenient on them. You know, I'm a little bit more finicky when it comes to sawing them than Donny is, because, but he knows a lot more about it building than I do and like where we could use one that has some wane or maybe not quite as strong, but it's a full size two by four. You gotta keep that in mind too. That log was a struggle. It was, of course, we ran out of gas, that didn't help, battery died, that didn't help. What else? Then we hit that rot, that didn't help. I had it all set up to be a wicked staven log, but what else? Oh, what else on this one? So yeah, we didn't break a blade. I was fully expecting to break a blade and the hornets to come over and sting me after the way that log was going for a while there, but ended up doing okay with it. You know, when you, oh yeah, it'll easily be a 100 year old camp when we're done. There's, I mean, no way. The only thing that could touch it would be like fire, because we've got an incredible foundation under it for woods foundations, and then we're gonna build it the right way too and insulate it the right way and make it good and weather tight, mouse tight, everything like that. But yeah, so like, I'll show you guys the rotten ones that I can't use. That's where the ants got into that after it started rotten. That's a two by four and under it's a nice two by eight. So Wicked Bummer, you know, you're gonna come across stuff like that and anything in life where it doesn't turn out as good as you expected. So you can't count your chickens before they hatch and when something like that happens where you run into some rot in the middle of a log or whatever else happens, you gotta just, you keep pressing on, stay positive and take what you can out of it. So that's why you saw me doing all those single cuts back and forth, back and forth. It takes a lot longer, but I ended up salvaging the log and salvaging, you know, all the effort and time I put into it by getting all these two by fours and some two by eights mixed in and some good, some decent stuff. So, you know, they're not all 10s, you know, sometimes 10 turns into a two and maybe you dress her up a little bit, make her into a four. And I'd say this one was about a four. So it's probably gonna do it for me today. I gotta go cut a couple trees and cut them down to dimension. I gotta go cut a 16 foot hemlock and I gotta cut probably two or three more 14 footers and maybe, maybe a 12. What brand's your battery jumper pack? That's a great question, man, because this one, I've been blown away by this thing. That's a Noco. It's the Noco Boost XL GB50. It's a 1500 amp. I've used that thing on dual battery loaders like that one, on back-os. Stuff that you just never thought would ever start and I've used it on plenty of car batteries and stuff like that too. And for as small as it is and as light as it is, I'm blown away by it. I'm not sponsored by these guys or anything. I probably should talk to them about a sponsorship because I stand behind the product but it's got a light on it and you can plug your GoPro's into it and stuff like that. That one's just the 1500 amp. They make them bigger, they make them smaller. There was like a Amazon Prime day one year, like two years ago or three years ago I bought that thing because it was like, I don't know, $50, $75 off or something like that. But yeah, feel free with any questions like that guys. I'm pretty open and honest with all that stuff. I'll go back through. Yeah, it worked awesome. As soon as I put that baby on there, she kicked right to the front and started. I was surprised it wouldn't start anyway but it's just small batteries on these mills. Oh, let's see some more comments. The Harbor Freight one, he says works and does perfect. That's good to know. Yeah, we hauled in rock. I'm editing video right now of the last four days Donny or previous four days before these last two. Donny and I were up there with a couple of special guest appearances too. And we hauled in a ton of slate and shale and then we hauled in some top gravel before we got washed away. So I'm working on those videos now. It's going to be minimum four part series. You know, minimum one for each day. I'm going to try to keep it interesting for you guys but we got a ton of work done, took down a ton of trees and cleared some land. And yeah, can't thank the guys enough that were with me on that one. So how many loads you got to haul of wood for the camp? So if we were hauling it the way we were planning I've got to believe it would take me like six loads to get it up there. It's just so heavy and bulky. But what we're doing is we're hiring the local lumber company. I'm going to buy my advanced tech from them. I'm going to buy my blue foam from them and the cement pads that we're going to set this thing and I'm going to have those and I'm going to put them, I'm going to buy them from that lumber company and then they said they would haul all our lumber up on one of their big lumber loading trucks for a hundred bucks an hour. So that's a hell of a deal in my opinion. You know, it's going to cost me anyway. It's going to cost me probably a truck engine or two and a trailer and tires and just a hassle of hauling something, you know, six hours away. So to me that's money well spent. So we're going to do it all in one load. I'm going to fill up my snowmobile trailer with some odds and ends for lumber and staging. I got a list a mile long of stuff. I'm going to try jamming that snowmobile trailer and we're going to go up there pretty soon. Still on track to get it framed up before snowfall or winter, Brian asked. Yes, we are. This hurricane is going to set us back a couple of days. Hopefully we don't get too bad of washes up there. We're right on the side of a hill on the bottom of a driveway. Yeah, a hundred and a hour is a damn good deal. Yeah, I mean, even I wouldn't even tell you what I'd be willing to pay for that. But as far as the schedule goes, Donny's real particular how he wants to build this thing. And Donny and I have built plenty of stuff before. So we're going to build it just the way Donny wants to. He wants it to just be him and I for the box, you know, the bottom box, the floor system. Because he likes to take his time on that. He likes to mortise and tenor enjoying the six by sixes. He likes to get everything perfectly flush, perfectly square, perfectly plumb. So that way as you go up and up higher and higher, it's just an easier job. So he likes to take his time. He doesn't like to have a lot of guys around for that because he's seen in the past where you get too many guys, guys start pushing or getting a step ahead or something like that. So Donny and I are planning on two to three days minimum for us to do that. Then we got to insulate it with blue foam underneath. I thought of a pretty cool idea that's going to save us a bunch of time and energy for that. And then we're going to bring in, Stevie's going to start taking some time off work and he's going to come up for the framing. And then after the frame and we're going to need some help for the, for the rafters and stuff. And I think we got a pretty good crew lined up for that. So we are on schedule. Donny doesn't want me to insulate for at least a month. If we get our wood stove done and then in time, we're going to, you know, we'll be running fires in there to try it out, but he wants this lumber to get a chance for about a month to dry out before we insulate it. I'm thinking about hauling a generator and a dehumidifier up and just running that thing 24 hours a day once we get the windows and doors in. So tomorrow we're picking up windows and doors. Got a carpenter in town that's had some from some salvage jobs that's nice enough to hold and sell to us. So we're going to go look at those and then we're going to be heading up shortly after the hurricane. So yeah, as far as schedule goes, it looks good to be on schedule. We're pretty excited about that. I'm going to check some more comments here, guys. Yeah, as long as we get it closed in before winter. Signal booster up there. So there's no signal there. I bought this Elon Musk star link or space link or whatever the heck they call it. And it works. It actually works. The trouble is it doesn't work right where the cabin is going to be. Because I think the canopy's got to be super clear and you got to watch out for ridges and stuff. We're like, we got a ridge right behind us. So if it's satellite isn't right over us, probably not going to work right on that property. But I took it up to the shale pit and it was like 0.8 miles away under a mile and thing worked pretty man. It dropped every once in a while as far as video and live goes, but as far as getting out and making sure everybody's safe down home and making sure the ice cream shop's okay and family's good and we're getting out for an order or to try to line something up like the metal roof and or something like that. And then we got enough signal to be able to do that. So, and I still got to learn how to use the thing to be honest with you. So I'm still learning as far as that goes. Yep, CJ says, I like the way Donny thinks get it perfect in the beginning. And it's way easier from there. It's so true. It is so true. You can make up a quarter inch here or there, but you'd rather not and a quarter inch on the bottom turns into four inches up top to be honest with you. But yeah, we won't be ordering any pizza. We're going to be cooking. Donny and I said, you know, we're just, we don't want to put a ton of effort into the cooking and the food this trip. We're going to have really nice meals at dinner time. You know, that's always nice. Donny will be quitting a little bit earlier than I will each day. So as far as breakfast goes, we're probably going to hammer some cold stuff, drive some cereal into us at lunch. We're going to be right on the peanut butter jelly train, which, you know, we could both live off them things. We'll be having Donny donuts on special occasions. And once the boys come up too. So, so yeah, awesome project. Looking forward to seeing it come to fruition me too. But I'm, as you can see, like I am exhausted. Like I've been running on exhaustion for a couple of two weeks anyways. But I'm so excited about this project. And the closer I get to being done milling, the happier I get. I love milling, don't get me wrong, but it's just been a struggle. You know, like it's just been a struggle keeping things going and, and getting out here in the weather and stuff. Peanut butter and jelly is the best energy you can get on a building project. And it doesn't weigh you down either. But yeah, I think Donny counted 42 rafters. We needed, no, what do you count? He counted 35 and we needed 57 is what it was. So we had to do 22 more. And I think I did five more there and five more there, so 10. So I think we're down to like, we're down to under 20 rafters left. So I got to cut a couple more trees. Two more good trees, I'll do it three. I'll make sure and I don't mind cutting extras just in case, you know, one has a, has a bad spot in it or, or a crack that we didn't notice. Or if we cut one wrong, it's happened before. I've seen Donny make two bad cuts in his whole life. One of them was his thumb and the other was on a rafter because he cut one of my lines instead of one of his. So yeah, so we'll, we'll do a couple extra of those and go from there, but I'll keep watching for comments here, guys. If you got, I'll stay on here for as long as you guys wanna ask comments or do any interacting. Yeah, JJ said you might gain a few extra unexpected trees if the wind kick up on Saturday were. Yeah, so we're not a lot of people go into where we are. You know, we're wilderness, but there are some other camps in the area, but who knows like after the storm, who's gonna be in there? So we fully plan on cutting our whole way in and, you know, bringing the chainsaws, having them ready and, and bringing chains to pull logs off the road and hopefully get all this lumber in. Brian D says he appreciates the channel, enjoys the heck out of it. Oh man, I really appreciate that. You guys, you know, you guys, I think you realize and I tell you enough that the support really helps drive us. It makes us work harder and really helps drive the channel. And yeah, so somebody just asked where Donnie was today. So Donnie milled with me. We had a bit of a rain out this morning and I had to sanitize my saucer of machines at the shop. So that took a while and then we had a rain out. So Donnie took me and a friend out to Chinese food out to Lucky Gardens. That's his favorite place. And then the rain stopped shortly after. And let me see. Like, set that thing up so it stops wobbling. Yeah, so the rain stopped shortly after. So we came right out to the mill and stacked everything that I cut yesterday and then we milled like one or two to get, I think we milled one together and he had to go get his hair buzzed off. So he had an appointment for like a hair trim. So he did that. And Donnie's like, he, like an old timer would, he wakes up early, you know, he wakes up with the sun every day. And he's, he's 81 now and he's getting over a little bit of a sickness. I guess it wasn't COVID, but it was whatever this creepy crud's going around. And he works till about, you know, 11, 12, one o'clock. You know, you could push him to two, but I don't like pushing them at all. I'm happy with anything I get out of Donnie, but at that age, but, but he works till about noon every day, you know, from getting up at like 430 or five. So, yep. So, so, so after, you don't see him on a lot of these lives after three because, because he's usually done for the day and he's preparing for tomorrow. So I, as far as the build goes, it'll probably be similar to that, you know, and like, if he gives me a list to do, whether it be go cut those rafters or go cut, you know, two by fours or pickup, whatever you want to do, I'll be doing that. Okay, so not a lumber. This is Brian, the not a lumber. I can't relate to the question, but when you come out to Minnesota this winter, do you have any idea of the lakes you'll be fishing? So Brian, they bumped the show a little earlier. I think it's like December 1st. So it's pushing it for safe ice. I mean, I'd love to be out on Red Lake, fishing early walleye. Never done it before, read enough about it. My good buddy, Nick, Leonard tells me all about it too. So, I mean, I'd like to fish some of the big ones. Malax, red, ram, but I understand, you know, ice is going to be an issue early December. It could be awesome, it could be bad. So I don't mind fishing some of the Metro City stuff or for crappy for those hybrids or whites or blacks. Some of those guys I fish with last year just awesome. So I know I'm going to be like in the Brainerd area again. I did, I really liked that area. Goal wasn't quite frozen when I was there, but the one across the street was frozen real well. And then I went up to like Alexandria and then anytime I'm up like Otter Tail County, I feel totally at home there. And we had like feet of ice there when we were looking at two inches or so down city. So there's a pretty good chance the one day or one part of the trip will be within an hour of the city if we get some ice. And then after that, like I wouldn't be surprised if I don't end up in that Brainerd area. I had some people invite me to blue and said that area was a good area, good area to fish and good area to always cold. So when we're out in Minnesota, there's pretty good chance we're going to jump around a little bit, Otter Tail County, perfect. Yeah, I had one of the greatest fishing experiences I've ever had there with some really cool guys. There's a guy named Cody Hill. He quit his job, turned into a guide now and he's, you know, I can't recommend the guy higher more than I would recommend Cody. It's under like Sea Hill or Chill Guide Service and Alex Tim and I went up and those guys were buddies and we fished together and just had an amazing day where it was just like as quick as you could dunk it, you were catching pan fish and then Mosque and Pike would move in and that's that day Alex hooked that one bought it for over an hour and a half on like two or three pound test, whatever it was. So Otter Tail County is like definitely favorite to me and I feel at home around there. But yeah, back to the build project. I'll probably go over my list with you guys on stuff that I'm going to pack and stuff that I'm going to still buy. Big Pine, I don't know where Big Pine is in Minnesota. I'll have to check into that one. But yeah, we'll be traveling all over the state for sure and then we'll also get into Wisconsin a little bit. So you Wisconsin guys, don't be afraid to shoot me the DMPM or RM or whatever there are and let me know on some really cool areas to ice fishing Wisconsin early season. But yeah, as far as the building project goes, I'll share the list with you as we pack. It's going to be a mess. Maybe Donnie and I will go live tomorrow as we start to pack and I got to make a home depot trip and I got to buy a couple more tools which I don't mind buying tools, something like that usually it's great and they last a lifetime. So yeah, so we got to buy some tools. We got to buy some supplies and stuff and there's a pretty good chance to go live tomorrow at some point in the day, whether it be loading the trailer, talking about our packing list or we might end up right here milling some lumber tomorrow if the weather holds off and then yeah, yeah. So that's about it as far as that goes guys. I mean, the building project is how excited I am to do it and do the work. Like I love doing the work. I love the challenge of it. It is a challenge to mill your own stuff anyway for your building, let alone if it's six hours up into the woods, you know, an hour away from any hardware store or civilization. So yeah, we're pretty excited about that. That's about it. Still quite a few guys watching. If you guys have any more questions or comments, I'll stick on here for a couple more minutes and then I'm pretty bushed. The mosquitoes are staying away because I stink so much. Yeah, Donnie said he felt a lot better today. He seemed back to his old self today. So that was like a quick video. Andrew Harris loves the videos from Colorado. Awesome, thanks. But one of these years, I'm gonna be Al's brother that lives near Denver and I'd like to get out there and do some of that lake trout fishing through the ice and do a little ice fishing. Can I buy an axe from you? Really, I don't really sell them, but I might, you know, if I get time, I'll be able to, you know, on the mouse protection for the new cabin. So mouse protection, and there's a guy from Wisconsin, awesome. Thanks for checking in. Mouse protection is huge. Like we hate mice. I just hate mice. I hate having them in my cabin. I hate having them where I eat. And not a big fan of mice. So we're gonna pay super, super extra attention to detail during the build to make sure that there's not a crack, not a knot, not an open space anywhere. We're gonna build this thing as tight as we possibly can, mouse proof. We're gonna use that rock sill insulation, which I heard is good for rodents or against rodents. And just keep everything as tight as possible. And, you know, I mean, we'll have to set a trap here or there, but, you know, the Ack Shop, the Ack Shop that Donnie and I built, geez, about three or four years ago, my woodworking shop, that one we built in a very similar fashion, never had a mouse in it till this day. And I leave food out there and everything. Yep, diesel poop, yeah. Disease and poop, yeah, exactly. So as far as under the floor joist, we're gonna put a two inch styrofoam, then we're gonna have a barrier, like a, we're probably gonna have a, like an air, like a, we'll have like six inches of air in between for added insulation. And then we'll have the top of our floor joist, which is what I do is we buy advanced tech and use advanced tech on that. We glue it and screw it as tight as absolutely possible. So there's nothing coming through there and aunt isn't even gonna be able to find its way through because it is tongue and groove. It's glued, it's glued down. There's no way anything's getting in. Now they might try to get in under that blue board in that space we have. And I guess maybe I'll throw some mothballs in there. You know, I'm not a big fan of mothballs, but hey, Anna, how are you? But I know it keeps the rodents away pretty good. And in that space, we might not even be able to smell it ourselves. So, and I don't mind throwing mothballs onto the camp either. You know, it just kind of smells like an old lady or like an old dusky place when you get too many mothballs out there. I don't know how they get these mothballs. Those things are so tiny. They must use a little pair of tweezers or something and pull them off. It's gotta be pretty gruesome. I don't know. So I don't really support the whole mothballs trade, just like shark fins, I guess. But, but yeah, she's starting to get dark here, guys. Already watching ice videos, nice. I got three. I got three series I'm gonna get to you guys before the season started that I held back from the end of last year. And all three are very, very special. I lost a ton of footage from one of them. I tried to get you last year when I went out with CJ and we put on a yellow perch clinic like I've never seen. But I do have one of the days of that trip. And then I have a couple others that I'm gonna share with you guys. So I'm as excited as I am for this build. The goal is to get it done before ice fishing season. So, you know, we can get out to Minnesota and then come back to Maine and ice fish Maine or Wisconsin or wherever else along the way. Yeah, get some grub. Oh boy, tomorrow's a new day. I hear you. Yep. We ate Chinese for lunch and about a half hour later, I was ready for a nap and still hungry. So, so yeah, I think tonight, I earned a big piece of deer steak or something like that. So I'm gonna drive a deer steak into me. That was a pretty cool bird just landed right there. Say, I'll remember in a minute, but hopefully it eats wasps. Cause we got a nest over there guys that's brutal white-faced wasps. And that nest is about the size of a basketball. They're coming and going as quick as you can ever see. I got a mess with it. I just can't resist it. So I don't know. Maybe I'll use 12 gauge on the cold morning. Maybe I'll use the raid. Raids like cheating. I think maybe the 12 gauge or maybe I'll just fly the drone and inch away from it and let them come out and get chewed up. They usually try to attack the drone and then the blades chew them up and I can get the whole thing on video. That'd be kind of fun. So beware of the set of blades on the drone. Maybe I'll fly the drone into it. But yeah, can't do it. Can't use fire on it cause it's right here by the mill and we got so much oil and gas spilled over the years. Deal with them at night. Yeah, definitely. The drone would be fun, especially if I video it. I learned this when I was fishing the, I guess it was the Potomac River. Was it Potomac? Yeah, Potomac. And they had like a Mallows Bay is where it was. And they had a graveyard of old warships. And they had one steel one that was above the surface. And I flew the drone up to get a shot. And it just started snowing wings and faces and tails and pieces of wasps on me. And then I started watching the video and man, that shipwreck was infested with wasp nests and they would come up and try to attack the drone and we're just getting chewed. And the cover of my boat in like five minutes was just covered. The total top of the boat was covered in parts and pieces from these wasps. So I mean, it was kind of, it was kind of fun to do, to be honest with you. So I might do it to these guys and that keeps me a little safe distance away. The only problem is pretty good chance I'm gonna crash the drone cause it's such a tight spot and there's a bunch of tree limbs around stuff. And I won't be able to get in to get my drone until they're taken care of. Cause a white face wasp sting like a mother. That's all I'm gonna say. They're as bad as they get. You forget how bad they, I think that's the one you feel for over a week or two for a long time since I mess with them. So maybe I won't mess with them at all. Maybe I'm smart enough and old enough now but part of me tells me to go mess with them. But I'm not gonna do it tonight. I'll do it. A little live video and get in there with the drone. You guys, you guys pay attention if you see I'm going live over the next couple of days cause that might be a real fun one to do. We got some animals talking over there. I'll do a deer. A deer and moose out here. I'll wonder what the heck's going on with all this talking and chatter. So any more questions guys or are we gonna go eat a steak? Browntail moss. So this year we didn't really get hit by them. We've been dealing with them for like the last six or seven years. They're awful. I mean they're terrible on oak trees and they started devouring some other like elm trees and a few other hardwoods. I've never seen them in the maples but like a fungus kills them. So like a real wet year like this really puts a hurting on them and doesn't allow one of their life cycles. So a really good year for us this year on Browntail Moss has been terrible. No chronic waste and disease on the moose or deer up here yet. We're getting two things are killing the moose. Nothing's really killing the deer other than us and the coyotes and the cars. But for moose they're the worst one that I've seen this firsthand is a brain worm. It's awful. It's awful. Like they get it, it crawls in their nose. I guess when they're eating through like if they're eating around poop or something from what I've heard but they get this brain worm in there and just takes over their brain and they just walk in a circle for like a five foot circle for a week or two or three until somebody that comes and kills them or they starve to death. So that's one thing that is affecting the moose herd a little bit. And then the big thing that's affecting the moose herd or the second biggest thing that's affecting them are the ticks. The ticks have been awful on moose. And they're trying to, so the state's trying to kill off a pile of moose and put a lower density thinking that they're gonna be able to control the tick population unless moose. So and then the other thing about the moose in Maine is the state's just been selling the herd for since 1980 or 82. And they've been selling them. I mean, let's be honest, they've been selling the herd selling the hunt, it's a big money maker. Anytime you can make that much money on a lottery and then permits and then the whole moose hunt they're gonna, somebody's gonna push it too far when there's money involved. And I saw they went up to 4,000 permits one year and in zone four, I can't even tell you how many. It'd be interesting to look back every year at how many permits they've given in zone four. I bet you since it's been 40 years, I bet you it's somewhere around like 40,000 moose. Maybe more, maybe more, just out of zone four alone. So yeah, and they make a big whoopie-doo out of it. You're right. But that's what's killing the moose is the state. I've been fortunate enough to get drawn twice. My first hunt was when it was easier and I got to shoot one with one of my absolute best friends. We shot it together, Absolute Trophy, Skull and Antler Club or whatever they call it, Big Boy. And it ate really good. And then the last time I got drawn was last year and I gave my permit to a buddy of mine from Florida who's been trying forever to get in. And we had a great, great hunt. It was a tough hunt. It was second season. They weren't coming to call and he wanted to shoot it with a bow so we had like four chances that, you know, with a rifle probably would have taken it down but wanted to bow hunt and we wanted to have a good hunt. So PB Laker and Pike. PB Laker is in the 11 pound class range. Stay tuned for that video. PB Pike is in the 25 pound class range. My PB Pike ice fishing is just under 21 pounds. It was 20 pounds, I think 11 ounces or something like that. And then open water. I got a couple of 25 pounders in one day. So yeah, so some pretty awesome fish. But if you guys got any more questions, we'll finish her up. Otherwise, I'm just as happy sitting on this pile of lumber and I'm gonna shut this off, probably sit here and look at these piles of lumber and smile for a little while and how much we got done and also contemplate how much we still have to do because we're on a pretty tight schedule now. So fingers crossed, then we get it done. Yep, so awesome guys. Really appreciate the support for the channel. You know, Donny and I are always curious like how people find the channel.

Definitely deer steak, potatoes, maybe some carrots and beans. I think I got enough okra growing in the garden to pick some of that. Gonna drive all that into me tonight. Gonna sleep in until about 6, 6.30 tomorrow morning. Then Donnie and I are gonna be getting after it in the morning, come rain or shine. Ah, that's cool, JJ got it through Google. So awesome guys.
