Years ago I made a shower out of an old hul-a-hoop. I hung a shower curtain on it and suspended it from a tree limb. I used an inner tube for a water container. It warmed up fast in the sun. The biggest problem I had was it getting to hot. I would just fill it partially and then add cold water after it heated until I got the temperature right. Love your videos. Makes me wish I was 50 years younger. I always dreamed of building a log cabin. The closest I ever got was a 8x8 chicken house made from landscape timbers. By-pass surgery and 2 strokes have made me an armchair participant.
@@mariannesouza8326 I think brilliant is a little bit of an overstatement. I"ll settle for clever. But thanks anyway. I hope the idea is useful to you and/or your fans.
hang in there billy, keep as active as you can and you will be able to keep enjoying this beautiful world for a long time!...Merry Christmas to you and yours...
You are definitely not afraid of hard work! It must be awesome to be married to someone you have so much in common with. I really enjoy watching y’all interact and get things done.
Simply love you two. Your whole outlook and respect for life and nature, your obvious belief in God. This old dog has learnt a few new tricks from both you and Dave. Thanks and be blessed.
Good to see you girl! So sorry about your brother, I lost mine 32 years ago, I just think of him and smile now. God bless you. I enjoy your show, and you teach me a lot.
Watching this, I know why we love both of your channels, you enjoy the simple things like we do and you work together on things like we do. There is nothing like just sitting in the woods or in a lake just taking in the sounds and movement of nature. It just feels right.💚💙💛
Goodness. You and Dave have highly addicting and entertaining channels. I love watching both of you: bushcraft and homestead masters. Thank you for putting these vlogs together. You and Dave (and Maisie) absolutely inspire and motivate. Watching you pull stumps was a hoot! God Bless you! I have to say I love it when you say thanks for your dinner.
“Hanging of the wind chimes means we are here for the year.” I just realized you all can’t drive to Alaska. I hope you can get up there to check out your property. We all know Mother Nature and her friends will take it back and quickly. I just love how you talk to the camera as if you were talking right to us and not at us. Thank you for making us part of your lives.
What a joy to watch this. Awesome outhouse. I LMAO when Dave commented about you painting it. 🤣Your set up is so cozy & peaceful looking. Brooke watching you work. Girl you are a savage. Admire you so much. 👍
Lots of love ❤️ to you!!! I want you to know how inspiring you are!!! I lost a sister to drugs as well, but I do know she is in a better place...we took down our old pool and made a fire pit to sit around and make family time!!!
2 things to help with the Mosquito's etc. This one is from a Green Barrette: 6 T Pine tar, 4T Caster Oil, 2T Penny Royal Also, I Have used, at night when they show up, I Get a jar of Vicks Vapo Rub! They take off fast. I rub alittle on my arms & leave the jar open on my table where I have My phone where I watch things at night.
Watching your vlog here on the east coast. 1239 am on the 19th of June. My birthday---: what a great end to a wonderful day-- by the way I turned 66 today --- I love your videos
Greetings Brooke and Dave, Sorry for the loss of your brother I lost one of my younger sister's a year ago this coming week right after I found out I had cancer again 😢. Life definitely throws us some challenges but we need to stay positive through it all everyday is a gift from God. I'm hoping to make a full recovery this summer and head up to Ontongaon and do some camping on lake Superior this fall. I love Dave and your blogs Y'all keep me out in the woods and happy. God bless you and your family young lady 🙏. Much peace and love from northeast Texas.
You and yours have been in my heart and thoughts a lot! So happy to see you back! I always love that wind chime! Woohoo! Happy Fathers Day to Dave! I've told you before but getting to spend time with y'all via all this is so helpful to me and a blessing! Thank you ❤️
Sorry for your loss....you guys did a great job out there...I feel like I'm right there with you.....good post...I always learn something in each vid.. God bless and be careful out there.
Hi Brooke. I just finished watching all your videos this morning and am so happy to see another video just now. You truly inspire me. I'm so sorry about your brother. Just know you're in my thoughts and prayers.
Hi Brooke & Dave....very entertaining & informative video!....Both of you are people that you would luv to hang out with!....May God Bless & Take Care!
>Sigh< Yep just taking it all in........ love these videos! Thank you both. Outhouse Pro Tip: Add two screened windows for cross ventilation. This is an absolute savior in the heat and to get rid of the smell.
I absolutely love how *stoked* you get over the simple things in life! Yeah, you know, like an outhouse and the proper build & use thereof! I grew up with outhouses at summer camps *(one was a three holer) and what you said rang so true! My only additions would be: (1) build in two framed & multi-layered screened air flow spaces - one about a foot above the bottom of the door & one up near the top of the back wall and (2) keep a pail of ashes in there and add a scoop after each dump. Once we did that to ours, it was more comfortable for those longer visits in the heat of summer and the odor was reduced even more. Some of the units never had to be relocated because breakdown occurred better & quicker.
Just a little suggestion, something I've been doing over the last couple of years... On your first pour over on the coffee, try stiring the coffee. I've found that all of the coffee gets brewed and the reward of a much richer, more flavorful, satisfying cup of coffee 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
Lived in the UP 1975-1979 at KISawyer AFB. The UP is my favorite place! It’s my happy place. I have video on my phone of the waves coming in. Avon skin so soft is what we used for mosquitoes. They weren’t that bad though back then. It also rarely got above 80F in the summer. Maybe because we were so close to Lake Superior. We lived on fish. Trout and salmon. Thanks for bringing me back up there with you. I live in Texas right now so I need the break!
Thanks for all your tips and inspiration! You make me want to do all the things outside!! Here is a tip for you. You use lemons and limes allot, which I love!!!! If you roll them really hard on a cutting board before you cut them. You will get way more juice! Hope it helps! I went to Alaska in 1995 to visit my cousin in sterling. It was so beautiful. The midnight sun! The Lord has sure made a beautiful world!! Blessings to you and your family. I'm a mom of 7 and grandma of 16! Thank you so much!🥰😇
Beautiful day. And I am sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. No worries he's watching over you. Great build for the outhouse and have an awesome time. Like I say beautiful spot.
Good times in the woods! Sawdust is perfect to neutralize odors from the outhouse, just a thin layer everytime you go "dodo". Just a tip! That wind chime is so cool, I think he is happy to be out again!
I love how hands on you are! You're not going to stand around waiting for someone to tell you what to do, you just find it on your own, and figure it out, on your own. Girl Power!!
Oh that was such a great Video!! Loved everything about it. We had a stinky outhouse at camp when I was growing up, blaq. But given that it was the early 70's I guess it was great, and as small kids we didnt care. Glad you are having better happier days outside in the sunshine Brooke. I'll say it once again...I love when you and Dave are in Vid's together. Tell Dave happy Father's Day!
So sorry for your loss, so glad you have the comfort of the Lord. Always enjoy your videos. Outhouse on our farm blew over this spring, we don’t live there but it did come in handy. May try your plans, like the clear roof! Be blessed, your property is beautiful but the bugs are awful! Can’t wait for the rest of the build.
Yes, my Forestry friends here in the UP suggest painting the pipe above the roof (approx. 4 ft) black. This heats up from the sun and acts as a heat pump, the air rises and vents the vault.
Great, peaceful, song (right around 14:00) especially accompanied by the crackling fire or vice versa. I love the great outdoors and watching your videos during this covid time is great for the mind! It's like I'm out and about with you both. Have previously watched Dave's video building an outhouse on his Bushradical channel. Even a first timer building one would be confidently capable in following Dave's process. You guys a real, kind, and happy team a real pleasure to watch both your channels.
Another outhouse tip, make or buy one of the three wick candles that are typically in the small buckets and keep it lit in your outhouse, it will keep it warmer than you could imagine when it's cold and it helps with keeping the bugs away.
yes they use to work good, until they banned them here in Canada, i still have mine but you cant buy the product to fill it, in the old days we use to drill an tap the muffler on the lawn mower and hook a copper tube to it and to a small tank, cant remember what we put in the tank back then, but you cant buy it any more, and like any thing else, only worked when no wind
I love the sense of humor. Y'all make me laugh. I love you inspiring people to get outside and get happy. Being outside really does make you happy being with nature. I have to push myself even though I love being outside I love to stay in my little nest. When I was a little girl my mother would to lock me outside. I cried. Anyways it's so nice to see y'all. Till next time, God bless.
Camping tip for washing up in a lake: bring along a bar of Ivory bath soap. it floats so you won't lose it. Not as popular these days so many people don't know this.
Camped on Lake George in NY for about 1971 thru 1998. Never in that time would we put soap in the lake. Totally against the regulations. We bought sun showers at A sports store. We could 2 of us take a hot shower and rinse with a5 gal shower. I have Two of them in my emergency kit for use in hurricanes. While we were camping on LG. A local town shut down their water treatment plant for modifications. They tested the Lake water for bacteria and purity and fed the Bolton Landing NY town needs without treatment. The Lake water was purer than the water from the water treatment plant. Everyone obeyed the “nothing disposed into the Lake”. Regulations. Still clean today. JoeB
@@josephburkhalter5105 I agree if it was a water supply lake or a campground. That little bit of soap would have about zero effect on water quality in most lakes. Certainly not much more harm than washing up without soap or swimming and much less than the effect of wildlife. Water quality was my profession for many years. I don't advocate ignoring posted regulations.
The required court layout for a game is two stakes fastened securely in the ground 40 feet apart. The stakes should be of iron or soft steel one inch in diameter protruding 15 inches from the ground, each leaning approximately 3 inches ( 12-deg. from vertical) toward the opposite stake. Enjoyed watching! Love the rocking chairs!
YOU BOTH ARE AWESOME...BRAD AND I LOVE WATCHING YOU TWO INTERACT AND IT IS ALWAYS REFRESHING TO SEE HOW WELL YOU WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN...HAHAHAHAHHA BEING IN YOUR UNDERWARE IS MORE THAN WHAT BRAD WOULD HAVE BEEN IN...
Love your videos. Both of u working together to accomplish all your goals. But I must say Brooke, your arm muscles are showing how much effort u put into every project. Proud of both of u, thanks for giving us a glimpse into your lives!
Lovely to see you back after such a heartbreak situation. I didn't leave a message before because i didn't know what else to say after every bodies comments. Stay cool.
I went to a memorial lately and the elders who performed the ceremony encouraged us to know the deceased did not want us to grieve for long, but to move on. 💜
It cracks me up that you forget your catchphrase at the end I wait for it every time you make me laugh ! I really want a beat up trucker hat that says she gone I looked in your merch store I didn’t see one 🤔😇😇
A huge high five and hearty congrats to you Brooke on reaching/surpassing the very cool 100k sub milestone! Why am I not surprised how fast this terrific channel has grown in the last couple of years? ATVB
My family used to buy the pix coils when we went to the drive in movies when I was a kid. They did not work that well and we still got a lot of insect bites. If you don't perspire heavily like I do then you can try Avon Skin So Soft. You can use it in diluted form on the dog too. Mix 50-50 with water. Another method is Walmart sells oil lanterns in the camping department and citronella oil in the garden department. It helps light up the outside areas and the citronella works against mosquitoes. As for Deer Fly they come in and attack in squadron strength. You could try a mist device to try and control them. If you can find citronella plants in your region you can container grow them. Up north they would die from the cold winters unless you have a greenhouse to keep them warm during winter. Stay healthy and stay safe and keep living your dreams.
I watched dave's outhouse tutorial and I really want to thank him for that. I know of 4 different places that I will build new out houses for right now. Can't wait to get started.
I know how it feels to lose a brother my heart goes out to you as well as my prayers. Watching you both work so hard at what you both love doing is awesome just one question where's Da wolf?
Glad to see you both smiling and enjoying life and each others company again. You two are a great couple, true oneness, it's a blessed treasure. Wifey really likes the legs hubby was flashing, it's wonder you guys got any work done. ; ) Thanks for taking us along on your new adventure.
Sorry for your loss, I’ve lost two of my brothers with in an hour of each other with in 50 meters of each other. I know your pain. I didn’t get to say good bye.
Gotta say, you two are fun to watch and you share some great tips about the priorities, challenges, and work investment involved in creating a liveable and even comfortable place in the wilderness. My wife and I enjoy the videos so please keep them coming! God bless!
I was so sorry I couldn’t express my condolences to you at the end of your last video. I know the pain you feel and am so glad you got to express your love for your brother to him. God bless you !
Since I found you I’ve been watching your videos in a random sort of way. I’m very sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. Very sad. I do love how you and your husband work so well together and seemingly have a wonderful relationship and as always I’m excited to get all caught up on these videos!
Hey guys, nice to see you two having some nice clean fun. The mosquitoes are relentless this year because of our Winter. I am rebuilding my outhouse this year. Hole is still good. When I see your tent, it reminds me of my 5 years living in a wall tent and almost feel like it doing it again. There is nothing like a big fire, hot dogs with the trimmings and beer, ice cold beer. You guys work well with each other. Keep'em coming.
Love you kids! You need a digging bar, spud bar. Definitely get a propane fired bug fogger. They work! Those rotten stump chunks, let em dry a couple of days then through one on the campfire at dusk for a smudge fire. Keeps the skeeters at bay.
I'm so sorry 💔 about your brother....big hugs, I know the heart ache,I also know the heart Joy of buying land and building....I have moved my outhouse 3 times! Thanks for posting
It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear someone say Grace before a meal. God bless both of you and your Brother. 🙏🏻

I wish I was 50 years younger so I could just go to any mountains and for a picnic table 2 saw horse and a board and you can used them for other jobs

2 things to help with the Mosquito's etc.
This one is from a Green Barrette: 6 T Pine tar, 4T Caster Oil,
2T Penny Royal Also, I
Have used, at night when they show up, I
Get a jar of Vicks Vapo
Rub! They take off fast. I rub alittle on my arms & leave the jar open on my table where I have
My phone where I watch things at night.
Must be the eucalyptus in the Vicks that scares them away!
A green barrette? Your sisters hair piece?
I keep a spray bottle filled with mouth wash... we spay our arms, legs. No mosquito bites... and I'm a mosquito magnet

Outhouse Pro Tip: Add two screened windows for cross ventilation. This is an absolute savior in the heat and to get rid of the smell.
I absolutely love how *stoked* you get over the simple things in life!
Yeah, you know, like an outhouse and the proper build & use thereof!
I grew up with outhouses at summer camps *(one was a three holer) and what you said rang so true!
My only additions would be:
(1) build in two framed & multi-layered screened air flow spaces - one about a foot above the bottom of the door & one up near the top of the back wall and
(2) keep a pail of ashes in there and add a scoop after each dump.
Once we did that to ours, it was more comfortable for those longer visits in the heat of summer and the odor was reduced even more. Some of the units never had to be relocated because breakdown occurred better & quicker.
nice
Just a little suggestion, something I've been doing over the last couple of years... On your first pour over on the coffee, try stiring the coffee. I've found that all of the coffee gets brewed and the reward of a much richer, more flavorful, satisfying cup of coffee 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

And a air vent pipe coming from the back helps with the smell
Yes, my Forestry friends here in the UP suggest painting the pipe above the roof (approx. 4 ft) black. This heats up from the sun and acts as a heat pump, the air rises and vents the vault.
Watching you and your hubby say your prayers proves good things come to those who believe

Invest in a fogger. They aren't to expensive and worth every penny. The out house tutorial was great. Stay Wonderful.
yes they use to work good, until they banned them here in Canada, i still have mine but you cant buy the product to fill it, in the old days we use to drill an tap the muffler on the lawn mower and hook a copper tube to it and to a small tank, cant remember what we put in the tank back then, but you cant buy it any more, and like any thing else, only worked when no wind

Another method is Walmart sells oil lanterns in the camping department and citronella oil in the garden department. It helps light up the outside areas and the citronella works against mosquitoes. As for Deer Fly they come in and attack in squadron strength. You could try a mist device to try and control them. If you can find citronella plants in your region you can container grow them. Up north they would die from the cold winters unless you have a greenhouse to keep them warm during winter. Stay healthy and stay safe and keep living your dreams.
Hello red, Im so sorry about your brother I pray for Gods comfort on you.
I envy you guys. What your doing is real living and real fun. Makes me want to go camping for an extended amount of time.
We live in a remote spot and find good old fashioned incense sticks, jos sticks etc keep muzzles away.
Libellula Washington hello
I watched dave's outhouse tutorial and I really want to thank him for that. I know of 4 different places that I will build new out houses for right now. Can't wait to get started.
I know how it feels to lose a brother my heart goes out to you as well as my prayers. Watching you both work so hard at what you both love doing is awesome just one question where's Da wolf?
You and Dave are so well rounded! Makes my heart sing!
3 things u can use to cut down on the smell in an outhouse. Camp fire ash, sawdust and lime
4 things. the 3 you mentioned and a vent out the top
Glad to see you both smiling and enjoying life and each others company again. You two are a great couple, true oneness, it's a blessed treasure. Wifey really likes the legs hubby was flashing, it's wonder you guys got any work done. ; ) Thanks for taking us along on your new adventure.
Still thinking about you with passing of your brother . Been there with older brother and younger sister. Talk to him and know he hears you.

Horseshoes was a big thing growing up. My parents played it all the time. Brings back some good childhood memories. Thx for sharing your journey
I love y'all more than fresh honey!!! 😊💕
A joy to watch. I don't even realize how much I am learning! Thanks.
Where has our girl Maisie Daisie been lately? I've missed her in the last couple of videos. Please bring her with you next time..
I was so sorry I couldn’t express my condolences to you at the end of your last video. I know the pain you feel and am so glad you got to express your love for your brother to him. God bless you !
When you spent the day building an out house, do you feel pooped out? Sorry...
ROTFL LOL 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣❤
Who christened the out house first?
Very funny!😂😂😂✌🏻️
"Better out than in."
Since I found you I’ve been watching your videos in a random sort of way. I’m very sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. Very sad. I do love how you and your husband work so well together and seemingly have a wonderful relationship and as always I’m excited to get all caught up on these videos!
You're gonna need that out house after drinking that kind of beer lol
Hey guys, nice to see you two having some nice clean fun. The mosquitoes are relentless this year because of our Winter. I am rebuilding my outhouse this year. Hole is still good. When I see your tent, it reminds me of my 5 years living in a wall tent and almost feel like it doing it again. There is nothing like a big fire, hot dogs with the trimmings and beer, ice cold beer. You guys work well with each other. Keep'em coming.
The official distance between the stakes is 40 feet for horse shoes
40 feet and 5 degrees lean in to each other played for 20 yrs
29:30 don't forget to hang a couple of fly-strips from the ceiling. work wonders!
I love that you are giving thanks to Jesus.
Thanks for the video! It’s always a pleasure! Be blessed!

Y'all are soul mates.😊
Your husban seems like such a pleasant person,enjoy seeing two adults on the same wave link.👍🏾
I'd rather dig through rocks than deal with tree roots.
You're awesome Brook. No crying, just do it.
KEEP A BAG OF LIME KEEPS SMELL DOWN AND BREAKS DOWN ALL OF THE STOOL
CHARLES Keehl I remember dad always put lime in our outhouse an renewed it occasionally too. We used ours for years, so long ago.
Great video as always! It was so satisfying seeing that last piece of stump rip out!! LoL! So cool you got the outhouse done; brilliant tips too!
Building an outhouse ? Been there, done it and used it. Question is why am I laying on my butt watching you all sweat
Jeff Amos hello
Love your videos Brooke. You're a hard working, loving & positive couple. The out house is great.
Thank you so much!
Love you kids! You need a digging bar, spud bar. Definitely get a propane fired bug fogger. They work!
Those rotten stump chunks, let em dry a couple of days then through one on the campfire at dusk for a smudge fire. Keeps the skeeters at bay.
I'm so sorry 💔 about your brother....big hugs, I know the heart ache,I also know the heart Joy of buying land and building....I have moved my outhouse 3 times! Thanks for posting
