Your Fathers cabin is one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen. He is truly an artist

Dads cabin is an Art treasure ! Amazing....

Joe's father cabin is beautiful simply beautiful.

I'm glad your cabins are ok and didn't get flooded ..good news.

At our age does it ever amaze you and leave you without words at the amazing power of all of the forces at work on this planet but especially the unyielding power of water ?!?!

Hey thanks we all were praying that everything was ok, but that road is truly flooded! 👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

First thing I thought it was at least the ducks aren't crapping on your dock anymore LOL

Thanks Joe! So glad everything is ok! Always enjoy your channel!

WHOAAA that road has to be toast! The elevation from before looks pretty significant compared to the current condition, please let us know if that's the case when things subside Joe....despite the weather the scenery is still very Beautiful.

Zach was up there today, he drove his car and boat right through there. The dirt in the picture he sent me looked bone dry. Just a small round hole where it washed out that was about the size of a basketball. Amazing, I thought the road would be gone.

You guys down there really got nailed yesterday. The news said that some areas in southern Minnesota got upwards of 9 inches. Wow.

As usual, Joe, you go go go!

I have baby bunnies in my flower bed. They have survived the rain under my plants. I only noticed them when I went to water my plants prior to the downpours. They squealed and momma came running. I have checked on them and it’s getting a bit crowded but they are doing fine. I don’t think I will have to water for at least a week. I was without power last night for 8 hours

WOW!! Mother nature showing off and letting everyone know, who’s the Boss !!

Wow! We've had our share over here in ND. But luckily the only damage is a Sunflower that planted itself. And I think the wind got that. I hope we get a nice long Indian summer. I mean a girl can dream😊 My apple tree is over over loaded with pips so I have heard that when trees and things overload that a harsh winter is to come. I guess cause we skated through last winter we gotta pay the tax.

Glad the tent and your folk's cabin are ok.

wow that's a lot of water,glad the tent and your dads place was ok.

When you showed the inside of dad's place, I wanted to take a nap on the bed. So peaceful and so beautiful. I could be there for a month and never get bored or tired of that most beautiful camp. ♥ I am glad all was ok with both properties.

Talking about flooding Joe the town of Rock Valley Iowa in Nw. Iowa was evacuated yesterday and the patients in the hospital were moved to Sioux Center Ia hospital so now they are full We had 10 in of rain in the last week and 30 in the last 3 weeks in Sanborn Iowa there isn't a road that the water isn't running over it. Where you are at Joe compare that to Rock Valley Iowa Town. Stay safe Joe

Good Job Joe! Most water I’ve seen at the 🏕️ tent

Glad to see the 6.0 is still running good. Wouldn’t mind seeing it driven even more 🙂

Joe, I think you are correct with the land being more flat where Melissa is from. Ideally, flatter land would have better drainage. Also, I think the further north it is more sandy as well. I wonder if we have more wetlands and rivers that erode and cause more problems with dirt roads. Bevers are another big problem in minnesota. Just some thoughts. I'm happy to see the tent is alright.

Glad to see all is okay 👍 Vermont was under water last summer🌊

Wow, I can't wait to see a followup video...

Mosquitoes! My wife and I were in Ketchican Alaska a couple of years ago in June, brother they were relentless...now with all the rain you got I can only imagine.

The dock was about 7 inches under water and the water had dropped at least a foot already from its high point.

Looks like a mess up there. Glad the tent and your parents cabin is ok.

Where I live near Dower Lake in Central MN area is swamp land. My house has a minimum of 7 springs/auqufers underneath. Both the sump pump and emersion pump were definitely running, I do need to upgrade to a battery backup sump pump for sure,about 6 inches of water in the basement. Cleaned up now, but any good rain or heavy snow thaw it's the same.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤

7.3 for the win.. Awesome engines.

I always say Joe, where water once stood, it could and probably will again

Wow that road was gone. It be interesting to see when the water is gone.

That's a lotta water!

Here in East Tennessee we have a lane just for cycles and they never use them and the price (out taxes) for them was BIG, outrageous!

I thought of y'all when I saw tornado and other storm warnings for around up there!!

You need a Therma cell or two to clip to your belt they will keep the bugs away from you 15’ each one so if you have one one belt your covered for 15 ‘ 2 will give you 15’ each side 30’ . I use them all the time even hunting and fishing. Outside sitting I put one on the ground each side of me . And they have different types for around home or outside. I bet you could kayak that road where you turned around.

As you were driving up to the tent and talking about maybe having to go in the back way I said to myself, Joe I hope you brought your chainsaw. Yup, I was glad to hear that.

Joe you just as well come down here and stay with me during deer season here in Oklahoma. We'll get you a deer.

Here in Missouri this kind of flooding is an every year occurrence.

You made me laugh about the guy on the bike..we have the same drama here in Canberra (Aus) the majority of the roads have separate lanes for them and when a car passes them you have to give them a metre clearance...then on the weekend all the mmils ( middle aged men in Lycra) come out riding in "pelatons" in the middle of the roads...pretending to be in the Tour de France but heading to their group coffee date at local cafes..and they are allowed to hold up the traffic as much as they like 😑🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♂️

Looks like Washington State❤

Wow

know you do trips for content but you should also install webcams at your tent so you can check in live from your home

Down south they have that clay thay bonds and holds together up by your tent is more sandy around pines like that an it washes out easier

We made it in

Stay safe

Joe you need a drone. You could of gotten a great view overhead of that flooded road with it.

It's a heatwave here in Georgia heat index today 103- 108

Hey there mr Joe I hope all is well that's a lot of rain in your had but the part where you were talking about about the hills you would think it would drain a lot more faster up when y'all in being the hills are more higher than what we got down here in Louisiana being a flat and it's slow slow slow and it takes a long time to be done with

Water is going down pretty fast. Zach was up to the tent yesterday and that part of the road that was covered was no longer covered. He could drive through there. Bring bug spray that is at least 40% deet because the mosquitoes are twice as horrid is they have ever been, and they are usually pretty horrid. You will literally have 20 of them on the top of your hand if it is exposed.

In Minnesota bikes are allowed on sidewalks except in business districts. That area is not the business district of that city.

Once the water goes down you’ll have pan for gold in some of them.

I wonder what this flood is going to do for hunting this season…

It may be illegal for bikes on the sideway and at the edge of the road there's debris and broken glass that pops tires.

That camera shot at 17:45 will be referenced next time you're at the tent to make sure nothing has moved since today's video was recorded. 😉

My prediction is y’all will see more deer come hunting season, than you have in previous years. Let’s see if I’m right.

Will all that water eventually wind-up in the Mississippi River?

@NorthernSeclusion

6 күн бұрын

No, not in that area. At the tent the water flows north towards Canada we are above the divide but on the ride up, all that water will make it to lake Superior. The Mississippi is more towards the center of the state (kind of) in relation to where I was driving, it is west. The tent area is also farther north above where the Mississippi river starts in Itasca State Park.
