Well yes, these are all places in Sendai, where I lived for 3 years. I used to explore a lot when I lived there! Lots more to come from Sendai, and then Tokyo and Kyoto gardens!

@@StanligFilms indeed!

@@trixiemartin4687 thank you so much! The homeowners thought so too!

@@StanligFilms it is so calm and peaceful, however, if you go in the summer during cicada season, the noise is deafening!

A few weeks before I left for Japan, I was doing a lot of hiking to get in better shape for making videos. I didn't want my viewers to hear me breathing. So, yeah, I was a bit out of breath, but also trying not to breathe too loudly. Speaking of running up stairs, have you ever seen any of Rambalac's videos where he runs up long flights of stairs? He's like Rocky Balboa! 😆 Thanks for watching, my friend!

@@LessTalkMoreDelicious yeah, definitely jizo statues, but I think each one is based on an actual person. I was there in 2018, and an old woman was there, maybe thought I was German, and she pointed to one of the statues and said, "That one is German."

Not exactly sure what your comment means, but thanks for watching!

@gordchapman3469 in Ireland nixer means a small job on the side.

Thank you!

Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for many inspirational gardens!

Yes, I started in Sendai, then Tokyo, then Kanazawa, and finally Kyoto. Your favorite timelapse was from a place called Miyama, that has the cute old houses with the thatched roof. The two timelapses after your favorite were from the same place. Looking forward to sharing more, a lot more!

@gordchapman3469 I'm so hyped for your coming uploads and stories!

@FlexxenRandomPlaces yeah, timelapses are my favorite thing to do with my Osmo Pocket 3! When I got my first Osmo Pocket, I wanted to use it for virtual tour videos, but I started playing around with the timelapses and got hooked! Go do some! Please share!

@gordchapman3469 Actually I have made some with my pocket 2. Can't wait to film with the Pocket 3 some day!

@@StanligFilms Thanks! How was your trip to Japan?

@@gordchapman3469 very short trip but it was fun!

Thanks for watching! They might slightly shift, but to minimize this use a coarse sand or a fiber gravel, like screenings, and go around the edge of the flagstone with the butt of the hammer to pack the gravel under the flagstone. Add more gravel if it packs in too much, fill the void. Also, if they are in the grass, the grass roots growing around will further stabilize.

@@StanligFilms yeah, it was fun!

Thanks! I worked on this project with two of my best friends from highschool. It was great fun, but a lot of work!

@@samiam9359 Sorry, my build plans are in my head. All you need to make your own is an upside down pot in a few inches of water and a small pond pump. The pump circulates the water. To find a suitable pot, go to a place that sells pots and rap the pot with your knuckle to see if it rings like a bell. Buy the one that makes the best sound. Also the pot should have only one hole in the center of the bottom. To get an idea of how it sounds, fill up your bathtub or large sink with 3 or 4 inches of water, put the pot upside down in the water and pour a little bit of water in the hole on the bottom of the pot. It should make a nice sound. For circulating water, put the little pump in the water, outside the pot, and somehow run the water to the hole in the bottom of the pot. It's ok if all the water doesn't go into the hole, in fact, it's better if just a little bit drips in. I can't tell you how to set it all up because every one is different. My pump runs the water through a little hose, out the bamboo spout, into the basin, and then the basin overflows and some of the water runs into the hole at the bottom of the pot. However you do it, the pot should be concealed, that part is up to you. Good luck! Let me know if you need any other pointers.

@@dancullen7767 Thank you!

@@pointofviewgr Thanks, but I think we should give Mother Nature props for this one! I've travelled a fair bit in my life but Emerald Bay is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to! Crystal clear water, mountainous scenery, and it's a no wake zone, so it's nice and quiet with calm water. Also, props to whoever built that mini castle on the island in Emerald Bay. We had to swim to the island from the boat, so I didn't want to risk dropping my Osmo Pocket 3 in the water, so I didn't get any footage of hiking up to the mini rock castle.😕

@@guanaco1172 Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much!

I'm not sure what the rock situation in your area is, but here we often have to blast rock to make way for a house foundation. There are many places that stock stone from the blasting. Choose rocks that are squarish or rectangularish, or at least have one 90 degree corner for the front of the steps. Good luck!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you, and yes, it's an amazing garden that the homeowner has been working on for decades! The owner actually used to be the previous owner's landscaper, and helped create the garden. Eventually, he bought the house from the homeowner.. I've done a few smaller projects in this garden; have a look at one of my older videos, called "Working in a Japanese Garden". It takes a longer stroll through this amazing garden. Thanks for watching!

Yes, I had to remove old steps that had wooden risers and artificial turf treads.

As cool as the lake?🤔😆

Yeah, they were beautiful trees! My friend got them from a Japanese owned plant nursery in Sacramento .

No, thank you, for watching!

Exactly!

That's right.
