Eagle Creek ORV 36 Review - A Great Bag for Traveling Construction Workers
I've always had bad luck with luggage. There aren't many bags catered to
traveling construction workers. My biggest problems have been where to pack dirty items like boots and breaking the wheels on the bottom of the bag. Most bags that are big enough for all my stuff are also heavy and tend to be overweight if I fill them up completely.
I finally found a good piece of luggage this year that helps solve most of
my issues. I’ve had an Eagle Creek backpack for years and now that I needed to get a new suitcase, I decided to try out one of theirs. I ended up purchasing the ORV 36 and it has been an exceptionally good bag. The reason I didn't buy one before is because they are expensive, but now ...

Road Life Ribeye

My eating habits have been evolving over the years and I’m constantly trying new delicious foods. I eat everything including fruits, vegetables, meats, fish, snails, blood, you name it. There are only three foods I find myself having serious cravings for though: larb goong, duck blood, and ribeye. Of the three, ribeye is the easiest to make and It’s a serious crowd pleaser. If you really want t...
Sticky Rice (Made in a Hotel)
Просмотров 2314 года назад
Ingredients: • Sweet Rice - It’s very important that you buy sweet rice and not jasmine rice, or this recipe will not work. Sweet rice is hard to find at a regular grocery store and you will most likely have to go to an Asian market or order it online. Grab the bag with the tag showing the most recent year. (Note these directions are based on using an Aroma rice cooker. If you are buying the po...

West Virginia Mud, Bridge Building in No Man's Land
Просмотров 4845 лет назад
My Friends Adam and Cody have some property in WV they use as a camp ground. I love going out there for camping trips and riding four wheelers around on the trails. Recently, they started building a log bridge and asked if I would come out to help finish it up one weekend. It was a lot of fun building the bridge and afterward I took a little video of Cody and Adam trying to get across. I'm not ...
White Island Volcano, New Zealand
Просмотров 9005 лет назад
After working in New Zealand for two weeks, my girlfriend Whitney flew over and we spent a week exploring in an RV. We did a ton of amazing things, but taking a helicopter to White Island is definitely near the top of the list. It's an active volcano and used to be home to a sulfur mine that's now abandoned and rotting away. The island has a strong sulfur scent and the gases can sting your eyes...
Random Bison Salad
Просмотров 785 лет назад
Sometimes when your tired, but you don't want to go to a restaurant, the best thing to do is go to a grocery store and grab whatever sounds good for a salad. I do it all the time. Instead of needing a recipe and a lot of ingredients with cook times, all you need is some veggies and to cook one piece of meat. This time I grabbed all the veggies I wanted and when I went to the meat department I n...
Salmon Fishing in Gold Beach Oregon

For years I drove over the bridge in Gold Beach Oregon during salmon fishing season and saw all the boats in the river fishing. I love fishing and grew up in Oregon, but never took the time to try fishing for salmon on the Rouge River. This summer my brother-in-law decided to book a trip to go fishing with the family and invited me along. It was a blast. We got to see a lot of wildlife and mana...
Tamarind Hen Soup
Просмотров 1875 лет назад
It's coming into fall and while other people are dreaming of pumpkin spice lattes, my warm and fuzzy feeling comes from a delicious bowl of soup. Tamarind soup is one of my favorite soups to make. My Laotian friends taught me how to make it years ago and while I no longer remember the exact recipe it still tastes delicious. This soup is very versatile and can be made a number of ways including ...
Road Workers' Guide to Seattle WA
Просмотров 1475 лет назад
It's been about a year since I started that road life. My good friend Garrett has helped me out since the beginning. In some of the first videos we did, we explored Buffalo NY. This time we went around Seattle to see what we could find. Breweries, space needles, pikes place, sea planes and tattoos. It was a jam packed weekend. Hope you enjoy.
Hanging Lake, Colorado
Просмотров 2095 лет назад
Working on the road brings unexpected experiences and opportunities to explore new areas of the world. One of my favorite things is being able to walk around on closed roads and interstates when there's no traffic. This time we had to close the entrance to Hanging Lake in Colorado. The lake is very popular and it's usually really hard to find parking there. We got off work early one day and had...
Road Workers' Guide to Portsmouth Ohio. (Ending not for kids)
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.5 лет назад
My friends Steve, Derek and I wandered around Portsmouth Ohio to see what we could see. It's a small town far from any interstates, but looks can be deceiving. Portsmouth has some cool sites, good beer and one of the best steaks I've had in a restaurant. This video only shows a portion of the fun things to do in this town. Hope you enjoy!
Last Laos Video

Tattoo, antiques, delicious food and Maglev trains... It only took nine months to finish editing all the video of Laos, but here it is. It's a beautiful country with a beautiful culture and I'm so grateful to all my friends who helped make the experience amazing. We couldn't have scratched the surface of the country on our own. I look forward to the next visit.

The crew and I had a day off so we decided to do a caving and rafting combination trip in Elizabethton TN. It was a lot of fun and Moeez jumped off a rock into the river even though he can't swim. Pretty cool.
Larb Goong!

I've been living on the road with guys from Laos for about 8 years now. They've been trying to teach me how to cook for just as long and I owe them for the fact that I even attempt to cook in a hotel nowadays. From the first night I worked with my friends A and Sikot they were cooking in the hotel. They talked me into eating a whole dried Thai Pepper in one go and I was told I had to chew at le...

How hard is it to deflate so you can catch your next flight on the run
Your hair is amazing, yes I'm jealous.
I can’t even watch the video any longer most annoying thing I’ve ever seen. No one will ever be a repeat customer on that guys boat. here let me hold your fishing rod while I could be netting your fish.😂
I would tell that damn net man to get his freaking hand off my rod and focus on netting the fish!
Gunna be me in two days. Same pad to. Fingers crossed!
Thanks for taking the time to review this bag, appreciate it man.
Bought one about 5 yrs ago and I absolutely love it.
What material is it ?
great review man, you touched exactly the issues I had in mind, still thinking twds the 30" because of airports...
That's How You Get Sick Need 2 Freeze 🍣 2 Kill Worms..Nice Vid.Fish..On..
I miss Elizabethton so much. What cave was that? I don't remember seeing it before. Its been almost 25 years but it sure didn't look like grindstaff. It kinda looked like a cave that I went in after hunting for it across farmers fields. Found a sink hole with a huge opening. A creek of similar size went through the mountain. It didn't have that much water though. Looks like it rained recently. The Watauga was fun to canoe and I trained for a raft guide on the Nolichucky. Did fine but didn't stick with it. The guy that ran the place was a prick.
I can't even say loofah with a straight face. I pity the high school boys buying their Axe Coconut shower gel and loofah kit hile their college aged female counterparts look down at them and pass judgment
The serpent mound is but in Portsmouth. The flood wall was not painted by one artist.
Great job! Looks delish!
Thanks! It's my favorite food. Goes great with sticky rice. 👍
They need to come up with at least one variation of t his. After all, what if you feel like washing with Naval Diplomacy one night and Buffalo and Trace the next day. Its easier if the Tactical Soap Pouch they are in are in different colors.
love from India.... subscriber
Back at ya! Thanks for watching!
I was hoping to see the part where you turn it on.
Lol. He said night life.
Sometimes I sooo muss home. Portsmouth, oh.
Will these be big enough for Dr squatch soap???(
I've never used Dr Squatch, but this thing is pretty big. I'd say roughly 5" x 2.5" or so. It is 2 or 3 times the size of an average soap bar.
thanks bro
I use both Squatch and Duke Cannon and the answer is yes my friend!
@@ExploreTheUnknown squatch soap which good soap, did stores have it? I have 1 of Duke Cannon bar. (Bourbon)
@@j.timberwolf Hey man, so for Squatch I would go Fresh Falls (Discontinued buy on eBay), Cedar Citrus, Nautical Sage, Deep Sea Goats Milk, and Eucalyptus Yogurt are all really good scents. You cannot buy these anywhere but on their site or on eBay. For Duke Cannon, Smells like Naval Supremecy, Midnight Swim, Buffalo Trace, Smells like Accomplishment is pretty good too. Bourbon is good but I wouldn't waste my time on the other scents. You can find limited scents like Buffalo Trace & Accomplishment at TJ Max or Marshall's but for the other scents u gotta snag at Target or Ulta. After smelling these, I dont think you would want any other scents. Good luck and enjoy ✌🏼
Jesus Christ can save
you need to do an EDC pocket dump :)
Never heard of that before. Do you have a link to something so I can check it out?
@@ThatRoadLife literally search youtube for EDC pocket dump and you will see :)
Just got mine from the military base
If that idiot grabbed the rod when I’m reeling in a fish, he couldn’t drop on the dock me off fast enough.
What month were ya'll fishin? And what Guide did you guys use.
I wish I could tell you, but to be honest I can't rwmember now. The guide was a friend of the family and I don't believe he does it for hire anymore.
@@ThatRoadLife ya'll can't remember what month that was? Man. Alrighty
@@TroutWest I can try looking back at old Instagram photos and see if there is a date on them. 🤷♂️
Looks like July 31st 2018.
You'll never really sleep at most airports thanks to: Ridiculously cold air conditioning in the tropics Lights (though a sleeping mask fixes this). The noise of janitors and cleaning machines and announcements. Earplugs help but not much. They don't come close to blocking noise. Why airports don't construct sleeping pods we could rent for so little is a mystery. Have a reasonably priced place to store valuables and a sleeping pod. So simple. People are exhausted when traveling. It makes sense. Then they arrive relatively rested and ready to enjoy their vacation. Otherwise it takes at least a day to recover from the day of travel That's just plain stupid. The answer may be to stealth camp outside near the airport after putting your valuables in storage at the airport.
Lucky for me I'm a hard sleeper. I've wondered the same thing about sleeping pods. It would be really nice if they had an alarm and slowly turned the lights back on so you don't miss your flight. Even a short power nap would be nice.
Munich airport had sleeping pods but the pricing was expensive. It was like $20 per hour. For a hotel room at the nearby hotel it was $140 for a night with free breakfast and you at least get your own bathroom and privacy which is what I ended up doing. The bus ride was like €2 to the hotel.
How do you supposed to clean your back with that?
I'm not sure what you mean. I just reach back there.
That Road Life 🤣 I thought it was self explanatory
Sounds like you need a rag on a stick
Let your wife/girlfriend clean your back...
TWU
Yeah buddy
Do NOT eat salmon raw like that. Freeze first. Holy cow!
Elizabethton is such a cool town. Love the video you guys posted. We just went to off the grid mountain adventures and had a blast! We posted a video from our trip as well!
I own one of this. Does the gas valve supposed to be loose like the valve doesn’t tight it stays loose?
Yes, if I understand your question right. Mine is the same way. You can still rotate the gas bottle while in use.
I have the Buffalo Trace Bourbon Bar in my Tactical Scrubber, but I picked up a bar of the Old Milwaukee Beer Soap, and I have to say it's one of my favorite scents next to the Buffalo Trace.
Dont know shit. Cant even pronounce the name of the resteraunt. And Serpent mound. Really! It's in Peebles, Ohio which is a good 45 minutes to an hour away.
Steak looks 😍. Cool videos. Enjoy watching.
Thanks. Glad you like them!
Where you boys working at this time? I miss that ceviche stuff you made when we were in Arkansas and Oklahoma.
We are working a little bit of everywhere right now. Larb Goong ceviche is delicious. There's a video for it on my RUclips page and website if you want to make it yourself. Hope all is well.
This is right in my backyard
Bruh... that kitchen is huge and gorgeous! Damn!
Oh, WOW! Looks like my kinda party, If you excuse the expression.
Music ruined it
Thanks for the feedback. 👍
Nine months later.... (volcano erupts) That’s insanely dangerous. You’re super lucky to be alive.
This is probably the most helpful and to the point review i've ever seen. Thank you brother.
Thank you. I love this thing and still use it to this day.
Î
Should've fried up some brooks!
That looks yummy!
Portsmouth, Ohio... Certainly the most corrupt city in America. A sex and drug trafficking ring run by a judge and attorney The ASSHOLE of America...
The guys using the net needs a little more training. To busy telling the angler what to do. Put the fish in the net...
Thanks for the review. I think I'm going to get one for an upcoming camping trip with my brother and his family. I'll need to cook for 7 and this looks like it is big enough. Then, I can use it on my porch at my apartment where I'm not allowed to have a grill. For around $100 it looks best. :)
I love it and still use it. I cooked for 6 recently with no issues.
@@ThatRoadLife Awesome, man. Thanks for the reply!
I would be pissed if that guide kept touching my rod and telling me how to fight a fish all the time
That's exactly what I was gonna say.. I would have thrown him "Overboard" like Goldie Hawn!. He needs to shut up, keeps his hands to himself and just net the fish when he needs to.. That would have pissed me off..
Salmon trip on the Susitna R. Alaska one of our lodge guides, a rookie, grabbed my buddies rod with fish on and the rod broke. NEVER EVER do what this guy in the video did !
One thing I have heard is that the soap in the pouch does not dry and turns to mush fast. What do you do that others are not doing to ensure it dries and stays a brick?
For me that happens when the soap is down to the last 5-10 percent. I like it though, because it lathers up really nice.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing the recipe. I am making it tonight!
Glad you like it. It's my favorite food!
They let you through with a ceramic kitchen knife? I thought mthe TSA were allergic against knifes...
I put the knife in my checked bag. Everything else makes it through fine. 👍🔪
