I appreciate your approach to questions, even when they are posed in a way that could be offensive. Thank you for sharing your interesting life in an interesting way!
I really can't understand why many people complain about having your dog on a leash. I live in the city and i have my dog on a leash for his protection, and because i also respect others. Your dog may don't bite, but the others don't know it. And besides that you shouldn't force your dog onto them, sniffing them and get in their way. Not everyone likes dogs and that's their right.
Also even if the other person has a dog, you should first ask if you can brink yours. Not all dogs are friendly, and also the other person may not have the mood. Behaviors like these give dog owners a bad name. Respect is something that goes both ways. Respect the others so they can respect you.
I used snow on wood stove for moisture, wood stove heat is drying. Had a bear silly me had bird feeter
I can totally understand why you don’t video Kenai getting in and out for potty breaks. When I take my dog on the long trip to visit my daughter the 8 hour trip ends up to a 10 hour trip! I can’t imagine how much time it would add setting up video equipment. It’s always a joy watching your videos! Stay safe and keep living your dream…
😵😁👍👍
I’m a new subscriber.
I’m 65 years old and I so admire your strength.
Not sure what or how you got to where you are.
I will continue watching your videos.
🙏❤
Also...kudos on answering (accumulated) questions from your viewers in your background narrative, all while videotaping daily life/chores. A great combo and relaxing to watch.
Yes! I vote for more recipes!😂 Love Kenai ❤🐾 Great Q & A! 👍🇨🇦😎
One can never be too careful where bears are concerned, in my humble opinion. That food made my tummy rumble now...
Those fried potatoes with all the yummy ingredients looked delicious! Happy Spring🌺🌷🌺🌷🌺🌷
I didn't watch your video yet but I wish it was longer than 17 minutes. I miss the longer ones❤
Same
Some RUclipsrs choose short videos they find that more people have time for shorter ones. But I understand what you are saying , we can never have to much of a good thing
Alone, what a lovely video thank you for taking the time to answer questions about everything. What a magnificent view as you was driving absolutely beautiful You live in the most beautiful state IMO.
I dont blame you for keeping kenai on a leash its for jis own protection its great to see how much you love and take care of him.
The food you fixed looked delicious looking forward to seeing you cook more when you can i also hope to see longer content when you cani enjoy watching you just sitting in your beautiful home talking to us. I'm stuck in my home 98%[of the ime im in my bed because I'm disabled and on oxygen when i move around which is very hard for me my oxygen levels drop really low so i have to be very careful between my breathing and my bones being so easy to break from being so brittle from osteoporosis and osteoarthritis plus RA i have o pretty much stay put and your videos keep me company. I appreciate all you fo on here you help to keep me sane . Looking forward to seeing you soon stay safe and enjoy your time never take your health for granted. rejoice everyday in the beauty 💖🐦💖
That's my kind of life. I grew up carrying water . Kerosene lamps. An wood heat. Work hard/play hard. When dark comes your tired an ready for bad. 😊
Thank you Alone an Kenai for your valued time spent sharing your life with us! 😊
That's a Hoss you have strapped on your side Miss. If you run out of bullets you could always club them. That's a wilderness for sure.
You look just lovely in oil lamplight with wood- spirit orbs dancing over the crackling pan. (As the Victrola plays on) . Whoever commented about that has never been in a smoky cabin. Then next scene is mind blowing panorama of those mountains. I follow 3 or 4 Alaska channels, and oh man. those shots are all so awesome. I think bears actually do understand turf boundaries well enough. Sure, they'll start trouble when they can get away with it. Just like when Kenai realizes that licking caked mud off is totally bogus. So why do that. You get what you go for.
Great to see you and Kenai on another video. Never realized that the cleanest looking snow can still carry a lot of dirt that is hidden. So glad to see you so protective of Kenai. He sure does like his trips into town with you. 🐶💖🤗
Hi Carri Ann! So good to hear from you. Isn't it surprising how much is hidden in what appears to be crisp clean snow? And to think of the things we cannot see! 😳 Yes, Kenai is my best friend. I have to look out for him as he does me. Hope all is well with you! I will catch up with you soon. 🤗💗🐺
Could not believe how new of a remote Alaska vid I got !!
Ready to date ?! 😮😁
The Last Frontier !! 💪💥
I love our nation ! 🇺🇸🙏
Always a pleasure watching your videos.
Thanks for answering questions. We are all so fascinated with your lifestyle, we just want to know everything! lol
Kenai is a happy dog and loves you. That's all that matters. I loved seeing him hanging his head out the window. You could tell how much he was enjoying it by the bliss on his face.
And I know I sure love watching you cook. So anytime your ready. That dish you fixed looked so good.
Thanks very much for letting us visit.
See you next time.
Much respect.
Kisses, Kenai.
You are smart to keep your dog on a lead. Too many dangerous animals in Alaska. I went there one summer. Beautiful,majestic place
I totally understand you not filming every minute. People just don't get it sometimes. Some folks just way too nosey and can't figure things out. Love you videos alone. Be safe dear.
Hi Alone! Great Q&A video. Sorry to hear your dealing with mud, but glad to hear the snow is melting, and spring is headed your way. See you on the next one!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your home.
Your cooking looked yummi and the mountain views always breathtaking.
Loved it how kenai put his head out of the car window.
Stay healthy and happy. Wish you a happy spring time, hopefully soon!
Greetings from Italy where the trees are already green.❤🎉
Thankyou for answering people's questions. It's really interesting!! Love the views!! Little Kenai is so sweet and special!! Hugs to you and Kenai. Take care and God Bless you and Kenai always🙏🙏❤💙
When I lived on Souther. Maine neighbors half mile down the street had a bear at their bird feeder at 5 in the sfternoon. I have what looks to be a bear claw mark in a partielly sawed offtree outside one of our windows.
I keep my home in the fifties…you really do get used to it…sleeping isn’t a problem..you just have plenty of blankets..and I have a house sweater…I prefer it to ridiculous utility bills
At 8000 feet in the Rockies of Southern Colorado, its 70 degrees out and full sunshine. Heaters are off, and work has begun.
Crazy!
I love the clip of Kenai with his head sticking out the window. 🥰
Kenai said thanks. 😉
Great Q&A, as always! Oh, the Great State of Alaska! What a glorious place and I'm glad you were able to fulfill your dream! I have taken the first step and am starting things in motion. Can't wait to make another visit and hopefully make a permanent move as soon as possible. Thanks again!
Hey there, Ashley! I am so glad that you had a great trip up to Alaska. Wish I could have had the opportunity to hang out with you and the gang while you were here. Looking forward to catching up on your videos and seeing what you have in store for us next! 🤗💗🐺
I absolutely adore you and your videos. Thank you for making and sharing them..after a difficult day working with the public…your videos are a saving grace of peace and joy for me watching them😊
Thanks!
Thank you, Teresa! I really appreciate the support and you watching the videos. 😊
Hi Teresa. If you're seeing this response in duplicate, I apologize, but nonetheless, thank you so much for supporting the channel. I appreciate it and you! 🤗💗🐺
Great video Alone. I have to say your breakfast looked amazing! I shall be there at 7am sharp! Lol. Justtt kidding. Can’t wait for your new adventures! Take care dear friend! ❤. Oh your package has made it to Anchorage. Says it will be delivered by Monday!
Thanks, Monica. I really appreciate you sending me a bottle. I will make a trip to the post office to pick it up. Hope all is well down your way. 🤗💗🐺
I think Keni has his own fan club.❤
Thank you for sharing your life outdoors.god bless you
Loved this video. All your videos are absolutely fun! Yep glad Kenai is your pup and you keep him very safe!
The Watson cat was a roamer and he was shot by a neighbor .....very sad, he lived but lost his leg. Now tge kitties stay in or are harnessed.
Have a very blessed week.
Thanks! I really am glad that you like the videos. I am sorry to hear about Watson. And the awful actions of the neighbor. I hope you're doing well, yourself. 🤗💗🐺
For snowy winter you need one of those lightweight circular plastic discs with a pull rope (what kids use for tobogganing down hills but you could put your garbage on that to pull over to your outdoor garbage burner. I worried when I saw you walking on slippery snow with no hand free because you were holding that garbage with both hands. If you tripped or fell you would land face first & not be able to catch your fall.
Hi Alone nice video.I don't blame you for wanting the snow gone I feel the same.Suppose to get snow here with cold temperatures tomorrow. Then in the sixtys Monday.Im ready for my garden and to watch you do yours.Nothing better then fresh food.Stay safe.
Glad to see everything is well with you. Take care, and hugs for Kenai. 🤗
Thanks, Joan. Hope all is well with you too! 🤗💗🐺
The potatoes n eggs are typically dishes i make alot!!!!! Topped alot with Stokes green chili and triple chedder cheese. Good questions and answers!!!!!
I do enjoy your videos. Kenai is very cute . loves you a lot . I can totally dream of a life style I would of done. Maybe I should of. Now I'm older and miss my chance. It gives me joy watching your channel.
I’m a FLORIDA girl. I would be miserable there! I hate cold weather.i would want my temperature at least 70 in my house.
Spring is coming. Here in Ohio it has rained now 4 days. Today it is windy and cold. Great video!!
Excellent
Thank you for your video today. Hope you are getting your stuff ready to plant in your garden this year so you can have a really great garden. Can’t wait to see your next video.have a great week
Good Morning Alone and Kenai, Even your Q & A videos are good.. Thank you for sharing : )
Hi I watch all your videos. I don't comment usually. Its really beautiful there where you are. Kenai is such a a cute lil dog. I'm iny 60s, and would love to live like you do. Your cabin is great. Anyways have a lovely day.
Thank you for sharing about your life in remote, but breathtakingly beautiful Alaska.
Kenine reminds me of our Soc so much!!
A very good video and again the scenery in Alaska is just beautiful.
I love your passion for homesteading
Thanks for the Q&A Alone, I enjoyed it. Hugs to you and Kenai :)
You're very welcome. Glad that you enjoyed it. Hugs to you as well. 🤗💗🐺
It’s morning and your breakfast is making me hungry😊.
That Shure looks tasty on that plate 🙂
Mb stopped by always nice to see what happening on your side
I love your vintage apparel. You pull it off great.
Great video! I'm a bit of a misanthrope, and if I was younger I'd move to Alaska myself. Unfortunately, I've gotten too accustomed to the warm weather here in the Southern States.
Hi I missed this just catching up .😊 just to let you know I noticed I was unsubscribed ? Don’t k now how that happened ??, people check your end 👍😊in case it’s happened to you , Alone excellent video. Thanks
The ups truck might get stuck in the snow- so I see why they wouldn’t deliver there
I did get flying wild roaches they was wild so they did go away
Good day Thank you for sharing your life.
I hope you are done with snow! Your cabin is gorgeous!
Glad to see you,glad you are well.
Hope all is well with you and Kenai! 😊 Sorry I missed this..but I will replay tonight.😊

Very good video and thank you much. 😅
Thanks. Loved the video!
Another great one.
Enjoyed this video!
Great Q/A. I'll be sending a care package soon.
Thanks, Beth! I will be on the lookout for the package. Tell Grissom that Kenai says WOOF! 😉💗🐺
Really nice little q&a. Very interesting
Hey Good Day 😅!!! Informative! Good video.
Thanks for a fun video ❤😊🌹
I have items shipped to my post offices physical address with my box number used as the apartment# or unit # and that has worked so far. My physical address is a small house that was built without a permit so it doesn't appear on google maps. Talk to your postmaster about it.
Greeting from Puerto Rico
I j u st found your video We have 5 seasons here in Maine
Mud season is the 5th season
Great vid, thanks for sharing. Travel time soon.
Hi Weedeater! I am sure that you have some exciting adventures planned for this summer. I have lots of places I want to see and look forward to sharing them with you soon. 🤗💗🐺
Hello alone in Alaska.
Hi alonè it's coming autumn here in Australia and it's getting ready for it. Wonder how our season will go this time.
T y a heart means a lot to me 😊
Alaska gets brown recluse spiders. They like firewood...
An FYI, there are Brown Recluse spiders in Alaska.
It always tickles me to death when people go well aren't you going to bring something in on the wood will let me see you manage to get here by pioneer people that stack their wood and brought it in to burn it the same way as this woman does every day so......... My grandma was born in 1918 and I got to have her until she was 93 years old and she taught me how to Bank of fire and that you wanted to burn slow with red embers you don't want it to necessarily have a flame that's not the hottest part of the fire. To start restart your fire from the coals and that are in your stove because they are much easier and hot to catch the new material.
❤
Does the bears ever bother your dog?
Hi, will you be purchasing your wood cook stove this year?
I hope too...fingers crossed. 😉
"Sox" not Soc. Lolol
Hi Bridgett! I am so glad you clarified. I was scratching my head and tilting it like Kenai does when he doesn't understand what I am going on about. 😉
Companies are stupid for not shipping to PO Boxes sine there are many areas that have no addresses or street names. What wrong with PO Box deliveries? They usually release goods with a signature when one presents an ID.
HI ALONE 😊
What size Berkey do you have? I've been wanting one but I'm not sure what size. Im thinking maybe the 2.25 gallon. It's just me here. Do you like the size you have?
THANK YOU.
Hi! I have a three-gallon Berkey. The company does not recommend one so big if you don't go through that much water quickly as the idea is to keep the filters primed (wet) as they take longer to filter when dry. However, I find that it really doesn't matter to me how quickly they filter as I fill it and go off to do other things and forget about it. By the time I make it back to get some water, I have enough to meet my needs. My kids bought this one, but I am glad they did as the filters are expensive but can filter 3000 gallons (I believe that is correct). This unit that I have takes two filters and when I lived in the city, I had it for three years before moving here, and only after being here for a year did I need to replace the filters. I hope this helps. 🤗
Hi Alone, muddy or not, this is the most wonderful time of the year. The woods is waking up, the birdsong and animal noises, and my little stream has turned into a river. I have to stop and listen every morning when I'm off to work. Even tonight, I just went out with the dogs, and stood there listening. It is magical. 🏞
Hi Inger! I bet your just loving how things are coming alive. It won't be long, and the woods will be full of similar songs and noises here. The word on the street here is that this is the winter that will never end. 😂❄🥶
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Hi Alone, so nice to hear from you. So true, temperatures are barely over freezing during the day, and my garden is still partially covered in snow. But the migrating birds tells another story, they are so busy nesting! And, I dared to change to summer tires on my car! Even though it did snow April 25th last year. I remember, I managed to get as far as my driveway before I got stuck! 😂🤞🏼🤞🏼 Hope spring arrives soon in your neck of the woods too. 😘
Why are you carrying a side arm when it is still April? Don't know you location in Alaska as I've just tuned in so don't know your history but bears don't typically come out quite yet??
How did u ever end up in this situation and in ALASKA?
👍👍🔥🍷
What sidearm do you carry?
I normally carry a SW 357 snub nose, and if not that then I carry a 10mm. Thanks for asking. 🤗
Oh my gosh! If you needed to go to the hospital or needed emergency help….you would be in trouble ! Also has any strangers ever concerned you or tried to break in?
JESUS bless you
Cook outside
I have 10 acres way out in Hicksville and my neighbor's have trailers or whatever have you and I go up there all the time with bear and cougar and all these you know without amenities and and on and on and on and everybody's like aren't you afraid blah blah blah blah blah . I'm more afraid of the humans that come around and do weird things that I ever have been about God's creatures. Most animals aren't into eating humans I don't think we taste very good I think there's other things they'd rather eat the only time I feel that they're really protective of their young.
I see you carry a gun is that because of bears?
❤
