Summer Relaxation Near the Homestead - Making an Old Canoe into a Stable & Comfortable Fishing Boat
Some glimpses of a bit of relaxing fun we had together this summer. I have no affiliation with them other than really liking their product, but this is the pontoons we added to the old canoe - amzn.to/425AA8U

Join Fy Nyth on social media - mewe.com/i/fynyth ! If you are new to my channel and Fy Nyth (Welsh for "My Nest") in general, welcome! I'm Ariel. Along with my husband Clay, our dogs, cats, bees, and some poultry, we live in a tiny house on wheels in the mountains of western Wyoming and are working on setting into our own new little homestead. I've been living this lifestyle since 2014 and my wonderful partner has joined me more recently. What will you find if you follow the channel and watch the videos?
Real life here. I try to show the good and the bad. The ups and the downs. What works, and what doesn't. The parts I love (most of it!), and the things that suck. Not just the showroom version of a tiny house, but everyday life in a tiny house. Not just the romantic idea of "homesteading" or off grid life, but the everyday details of this lifestyle. We split wood for heat, fill the water tank from a gravity fed spring, and attempt to grow as much of our own food as possible between the weather and wildlife here. I hope to help others learn from mistakes and make life just a little easier for anyone else interested in pursuing a similar lifestyle.
We live in a somewhat harsh and cold climate, but enjoy the stunning scenery and wildlife that we are surrounded by on a daily basis. You'll also see videos of the nature and wildlife around my home. If you are interested in my photography or purchasing a photo, I'd love if you follow that over at mewe.com/join/arielcelestepho... or ArielCelestePhotography.zenfolio.com!

A group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope. What a beautiful lake. The water is so clear. 💜🦋

I didn't know that was the group name of butterflies! Thank you!
Ariel’s smile says it all she is definitely in her happy place the two of you are a matched set 💞
Thank you for sharing a little bit of your part of paradise with us
Thank you Ariel, so relaxing hearing the water gently lapping against the side of the canoe! I love looking back at my summer videos in winter! Yes, it will be green again! 💚
Perfect & refreshing video to enjoy here in the dead of winter (Vermont). Gives hope that better seasons are ahead. And, of course your scenery is so incredible… Thanks for this mid-winter respite….❤
: ) I Love SEEING You Having So Much Fun in GOD'S Majestic Playground!! I WISH I WAS THERE : )
Burley is just so precious!
Thanks for the great idea to convert a canoe into an outrigger with seats that you can actually be comfortable in! That small lake is a beautiful getaway for you! The happiness you emitted was very apparent!❤Cheers,Sandy&Andy from Canada
I can’t get over how clear the water is there.
This brings back memories of using my grandfather's canoe.He built it from scratch,even the paddles.I wish I knew what happened to it.
So glad to see you two taking rest and relaxation. :)
Yep, the outriggers are wonderful for a tippy canoe…also great for sailing a canoe. Your pontoons are fine, light and easy and increase your joy a lot. Think of how flexible and the variety of uses you have with that one boat. Way to go!
That is a beautiful lake! Clear water. This is my idea of a perfect day!
Beautiful spot! Clay has his own trolling motor (you)😉🤣
So relaxing. Can't help but smile. This is another of your videos that I save to a special list, fast to pull up when I need some beauty to enjoy. Thanks, Ariel.
Beautiful way to spend a morning…and catch some meals too! Great to see Burley enjoying the ride (though he clearly wants to explore!) Thank you and Clay for sharing this morning with us, and so good to see you both doing fun and leisurely things! Have fun and each day is special!🥰
Thank you for sharing a beautiful summer day. So peaceful and restful. Burly looks like his doing well. He's such a good boy.
Brilliant!
Nice to see summer fun during these chilly times!
Great video, Ariel! I love flyfishing and watching that fish in the water was so cool. Can’t wait to get back out there this summer. Glad you guys had some relaxing time on the water. It’s so refreshing and fun.
Enjoyable to watch, nothing so wonderfull as paddling and enjoying the beauty around us.
What a beautiful lake. I'm so happy you and Clay had that time together enjoying the lake. Fish looked yummy. And Burley had fun for sure. Thanks so much for sharing.
Makes me wishful for spring. I'm in Texas so not summer.😊 Looks like fun.

How long you have been watching her?
Absolutely GORGEOUS LAKE 🙌🏼‼️❤️🫵🏼😍
So wonderful to see the beauty you are enjoying! I would want to do every day!
Beautifully refreshing. Loved listening to you read and paddle the water. What a peaceful place.
It is always fun to get away. Yes, there is work that needs done but in your later years it is the good times that you will remember.
The joys of doing the things you two enjoy. Great canoe, fishing, and enjoying life video. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day.
What a wonderful way to spend a morning!
Love the canoe made into a kayak! Those pontoons are really cool! So glad Burley is adjusting so well to the loss of his eye.
Beautiful lake
Seems relaxing and most of all fishing,the scenery is beautiful 😊😮💜
So beautiful! Happy for you and Clay!
Its always interesting and beautiful watching your videos. What a lovely summer passtime you've perfected together !!! The fish looked delish Clay and your paddling appears effortless on that glorious cold mountain lake. Thankyou for the nature shots and for Briley . ❤🇦🇺🤗💞🙏👌✌️👏🇺🇸
So glad you and Clay had some time off in a beautiful place.
The scenery is gorgeous, and the water is such a pretty blue color!
How fortunate, looks like nobody else uses the lake! Either that or your schedule is weekdays when everybody else has to work.
So pretty!
Lovely! 👍
Wow, beautiful. Thanks for sharing
Very cool pontoons!
Beautiful lake …peaceful video .♥️🇨🇦
What a beautiful lake. Thanks for sharing ❤️😁
Really beautiful!
Amazing video guys! The scenery reminds me very much of where some of my family live in British Columbia. Here in the UK it's a little warmer than the weather you've experienced. Thankfully no snow. Take care and stay safe. Sid and Nicola, Rugby UK
Such beautiful scenery! Your vlog made me feel like I was on that lake too! Fun time with Hubby and some Burley love too.
Beautiful view and so relaxing.Thank you.
Love it.
thanks for taking us along on your fishing and paddling trip. One question. Is there any reason you didn't show Clay actually catching a fish. Just wondering....
Beautiful and so peaceful! 💜🐟
Very nice !👍👍😊
I would like to see update about your brother' s cabin. He is such a nice person. Thank you and hello from Finland.
Breath taking view just gorgeous Thanks for sharing
Great video ,nice photography beautiful.
Wow, what a beautiful lake!
After watching your videos for a while now, I think Wyoming is my favorite state. It's wonderful that you two get to share life together!
Very beautiful there. You should always wear a life jacket!
Yep
Do you use the extra fish parts for your garden as fertilizer? Is that Lake safe enough to swim in? The water is sure clear and beautiful. What clean beauty eagles, fish, butterflies, and beautiful scenery and spending time together.
Do you preserve the fish for eating in winter by canning or smoking or drying?

A very good question. We always put the fillets or steaks in the bottom half of a milk jug, filled it with water, then froze it. Kept pretty well. They would have to keep all their critters from getting a snack if they dried or smoked their catch.
Does your Amazing Dog want to Swim in the Lake?
cool video
Is that a BIG MOSQUITO on your foot & CLay's shirt??!

They looked like Mayflies.

Would this lake be classified as a tarn? Your canoe/outrigger looks like the perfect means to get out on the water.
This must be the West side of Wyoming? Wind River mountains?
Does that fish taste mild or strong? 💞
Hi there! I just found your channel and am very impressed with all your hard work and goals. Would you mind telling me the name of the book you were reading in this video? It sounded very interesting to me.
25th view. 😊
Was Burley attacked?

It would have been PERFECT if you had been Reading Holy Scripture.....the PSALMS for instance. " The heavens declare the Glory of GOD....." # GOD, Who IS SOVEREIGN, ETERNAL, & The CREATOR GOD Designed and instructed human beings to be Good Stewards of HIS Creation. BUT ALL GLORY, & PRAISE to The GOD OF ALL CREATION. # There is NO SUCH THING as 'Mother Nature'; and is Blasphemous to think or say such a thing. I Hear people saying that All the Time and I Cringe!
Amazing how clear the water is. 🎣🚣🏼♀️
