FAQs/Why would they do that?! Answers
We are so glad you are here! Welcome to our channel!
1. We are in Oklahoma near the Arkansas border.
2. We release videos on mondays and thursdays and sometimes a extra on saturdays.
3. Kim aka Mom is retired. Jennifer owns her own business as a massage therapist.
4. We film multiple locations in one day since we can’t go out all the time given Jen’s full time job. You may not see all the locations we filmed that day in one video.
5. You may see other people in our videos at times including Granny aka Sue (mom’s mom), Jeff (Kim’s husband and Jennifer’s dad), or Jessica (Jennifer’s little sister) and Lucy (our beautiful, amazing, wonderful dog).
6. Many wonder why we put stuff down culverts. A few reasons: it provides help for wildlife, we like to and it would have gone downstream anyway. If it blocks another culvert then we will take care of that too but most of the locations we visit are in incredibly rural areas where there won’t be another culvert for miles.
7. We care about wildlife and never want to cause harm to them. The only reason we will clear a beaver dam is if it is threatening land or roads that can not be accessed any other way. It may not be the road directly within sight but a farm road close by.
8. We appreciate advice in the comments. We understand that we will receive constructive criticism in the comments. What we won’t allow is the calling of names, derogatory terms, or just plain calling us stupid or idiots. We are all adults here and the internet is already a largely negative place as it is, let’s not add to it. We are people doing our best to help our neighborhood and planet by picking up trash and clearing culverts. Why do we deserve hate for that?
9. You may not agree with or like the way we did something but that doesn’t mean we did it wrong. There is a right/wrong way to dismantle a bomb. Clearing culverts is up for interpretation to the one doing the work.
10. We hope that you enjoy our videos and will keep coming back for more! Any other questions you have feel free to ask in the comments.

How badly did you want to say "Can I have that rake for a minute?" 😂
Thanks you Mike for your guest appearances blessings.
Lol Dad (Uncle Mike) is such a natural on camera, not that that’s a surprise. 🙄Also, mom’s flower bed is beautiful, per usual. 🌸💐🌼
Healing thoughts for Granny, tell her that Miss Lucy is doing a great job keeping an eye on you two!😊😊😊
Awesome scenery. Get well soon Granny. Love the covered bridges.
What a lovely video. I really enjoyed it. Hello to your family member and I hope Granny gets better soon. ❤
It great meeting Mike, he should help more often. Praying that Granny recovers quickly 🙏 ❤️
Healing prayers for Granny. Uncle Mike did a good job clearing the grate. Thanks for the covered bridges.
So interesting. Great share. Lovely covered bridges. Pretty beautiful country side. 💚💞💕💚
Hope granny has made a good recovery. Thanks for sharing your journey home, it looked really lovely. Your sister certainly has a green thumb
Thank you for showing us around everything, I really loved seeing part of your Country. Best wishing to Granny.
Had my gallbladder out May 3 and feel so much better now. Best wishes to Grannie for a speedy recovery.
Thank you Kim and Jeff for coming to MN and helping with Granny and her surgery!!! Plus apparently Mike needs raking lessons from you LOL

Praying for grannies health ❤😊
i love how uncle mike is just randomly saying hi to jen as if this wasn’t uploaded to everyone and just being sent to jen it’s adorable lol
Beautiful area, thanks for sharing. Prayers for Granny.
Hi Uncle Mike! I sure hope Granny is feeling better by the time we're seeing this video. Beautiful scenery. Covered bridges are pretty cool
I live in Iowa and have been down there several times. Vandals have burned some of them down and yes people write on the walls ugh. Those purple flowers are practically in every ditch in the state (at least on the western part anyway). I had gall bladder surgery 20 some years ago. I wish your Momma a speedy recovery!!!
I agree with you, those flowers are so pretty!
Hope granny has a speedy recovery! Thanks for sharing the bridges!
Welcome to Minnesota!
Great to meet Uncle Mike. I hope Granny heals quickly. The Bridges of Madison County was a book first, then a movie, and is also a Broadway musical with some of the most beautiful music! I love all three versions.
Thank you. Although it was different from what you usually show I found it very interesting and entertaining.
You’re a great tour guide thank you!
Stay safe everyone, wishing grandma a speedy recovery, thanks for another great video :)
Praying for Granny! Awesome scenery.
That was a lovely trip you took us through, Kim. Have no fear of Mike becoming competition for you, he was raking across the bars…😂 I take an ox bile capsule daily since I had the gallbladder out about ten years ago, it helps with digestion. Hope everything’s ok…Take care…👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Prayers for everyone and their safety. Greetings from ohio
Speedy recovery to Granny and hello Uncle Mike. I counted 5 deer!
Lovely video, beautiful countryside ❤
Loved the road trip, your camera work is exceptional! Always aware of the viewers perspective. Your narration is also very pleasant to listen to. The detour was well worth it, very interesting. But, the next time you see a truck like that custom green COE (cab over engine) you should stop the driver and ask him about the truck, now that would be really,really awesome. Nice job Mom, Dad and Mike.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Yes it was a nice truck, I mostly took that video for Jeff. He loves old cars like that. We saw so many old restored vehicles, we figured they were having a car show
I hope Granny is doing well I will be saying prayers for her and it was a great time watching your trip home 😄❤
Thank you that was a wonderful tour. And I pray Jennifer gets well soon.

Aloha 🌺 Thank you!💖
Love your video. It is interesting to watch all the US Landscape. Look a lot like here in Québec Canada. A lot of covered bridge here too because of the winters, it is easier to maintain. Thanks and we want more of these nature vlog.
Praying for Granny I hope everything goes well 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hello uncle Mike!!
The tour was wonderful! The white flowers at your sisters house are peonies, there are several colors and varieties. Everyone in MN had a hreen thumb, did you notice the black earth there? Preparing your dirt about a foot down in your gardens will help. Pull out all that red dirt, clay, replace to make plants grow happy!
Hey uncle Mike. Jeff from Lebanon PA. Love this channel. Mom is hell on wheels when you put a potato rake in her hands 😂😂😂😂
Thanks for taking us on your road trip Jeff and Kim❤
Get well soon gran hugs from Australia. X0
Mom, you need to see that movie! I wish I had never watched it so I could watch it for the 1st time again!
Wishing Granny a speedy recovery and lovely to meet Mike. Cleaning sewers and waterways is an important job that anyone can do and should do in their community.
Feel better Granny , hi Uncle Bill
Praying for Granny! Tell her she needs to take bile salts now that her gall bladder is gone. My husband takes Dr. Berg's Gall Bladder formula. He was having g a lot of gut issues before he started taking it. It really has helped!

Graffiti is MORE than tacky…it’s criminal! Such beautiful structures.😊
love that movie...you have to watch it.
Prayers for your Mommy's healing! 🙏🙏🙏
Hope Grandma gets well soon. You Kim have a infinity with culverts that flood 😊😊😊😊😊
Awesome!
It’s nice to see them old bridges great video
That 3rd bridge was interesting because it gave the date it was built. I grew up in Iowa but never saw those bridges, maybe they weren't a big deal back then! After grew up moved to OR for most of my life. Love your videos. Be careful reaching in to clear leaves.....snakes.....eeek, yuck.
Healing thoughts to your mom Mrs. Kim.

You have a wonderful love of nature, touring new areas and old houses. Appreciate you sharing with us! Could you consider filming the memorial in downtown OKC. And didn't OK have an accident on the river where the bridge collapsed. Isn't there a memorial there?

Whole towns in PA don't want the dam system as it will ruin their view. They deal with bad flooding every year.
I hope Granny is okay. It’s nice to see her walking the roads with you and Jen while you’re clearing out culverts. How badly did you want to get in and help with the clearing of that drain? 😂🇨🇦😂

No, I was wondering the same thing.
What were those things that looked like jugs hanging down on the inside of the first covered bridge you visited?
