    It’s good to hear from you Ben. I’ve been wondering! You have the right attitude brother. Everything according to His plan and never devalue the time that He grants us!

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks Frank for stopping by as always. He will take care if you let him. I just wish I’d done that many years ago instead of being selfish doing what Ben wanted. Enjoy your Sunday.

    Hey, Ben! Glad to hear from ya again.
    Ive been on hiatus from making firewood, too. Too warm n muggy! Plus I have plenty. Been concentrating on burning said wood while enjoying an adult beverage or two.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      Definitely too hot for sure. I’ve been using quite a bit of the cherry and hickory in my grill. Thanks for stopping by.

      Hey Brian good to hear from you. I’ve seen you here and there on Facebook etc. Looks like you’re doing well sir. I’m back at M&S almost like I never left just took a three year nap lol.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  2 месяца назад

      Yeah I had to go back to the dark side. It’s all good though. The full time RUclips etc was starting to get stressful. Thanks for checking in.

  • @TonysCoolTools

    Ben, glad you’re doing well. RUclips is a fickle beast, as you say you can’t count on it. 👍TCT

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      You know it. I guess it’s my own fault. I thought as long as her channel grows and you maintain views you should at least maintain income. Now I know better.

    @johnclarke6647 3 месяца назад +2

    Hi Ben. I smoked a rack of Baby Backs on the Forth. I smoked them over hickory. They were good. We finally got some rain- the first time in almost two months. We had our grandson over the Forth.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      John glad the ribs were good. Mine were just okay one was better than the other I’m chalking it up to bad shopping. Rain has been hard to come by this year but hopefully we’ll have more years. Thanks for stopping by sir.

    • @johnclarke6647
      @johnclarke6647 3 месяца назад

      @@OGAOutdoors Nancy has had more rain than we have had in Marietta. Her garden is fine. Mine dried up over a month ago.. I got my ribs from IGA. Pretty cheap, too. I did nothing to them, just threw them on the smoker. Four hours later I wrapped them and covered them with Sweet BAby Rays sauce and put them in the oven at 200 degrees for two hours. They fell apart in your fingers. Gail made baked beans and Cole slaw. I was covered with BBQ sauce when it was over.

    I’d love to have your weather. Here in WI it’s been nothing but rain since the start of June. We haven’t had more than two days without rain. My garden is almost 1 month behind cause it’s so wet. Been a rough year for garden in WI. Firewood sales have taken a huge hit with the rain too. Best of luck with everything and I’ll try and send some rain down to you.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад +1

      Yeah the weather does it’s own thing for sure. We rarely have too much rain down here in the summer overall. May occasionally get a really big rain but for the most part it’s borderline dry. Thanks for stopping by take care.

    Hi Ben, good to see you are doing well. The heat this year has been brutal.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад +1

      Hey Joey good to hear from you sir. Yea the heat has been bad. I heard someone say “this can’t be the same sun we had as kids”. Take care brother.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      Good to hear from you sir. Everything is going well just trying to avoid the heat as much as possible. It’s been really hot and dry this year. I guess the weather can’t always be perfect after all we live in the south. Take care sir and I’ll catch you on the next one.

  • @GPOutdoors

    Good one Ben. I was just wondering this week about you and your channel.
    Thanks for the update. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      Yeah I’m still here. Hopefully I’ll be able to make videos now. Take care.

  • @botabob
    @botabob 3 месяца назад +3

    Thanks for the update Ben. If you had COVID, I understand it can really take your energy away. So the energy you have needs to be focused on life's priorities. I hear other outdoor channels have been experiencing the same issues with RUclips money. Enjoy the journey - cheers

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад +1

      Hey Bob good to hear from you sir. Yeah the Covid was rough but I think I’m finally back. I’ve been running 🏃‍♂️ a lot got close to 6 miles yesterday. I keep hoping the RUclips money will come back someday for her but if not we’ll be okay.

    @philgriswold2133 3 месяца назад +3

    Great video and once a person figures out they're not in charge of life and He is, everything gets so much easier. I spent way too much of my life paddling upstream and I finally realized how foolish I had been. Your yard looks great.

    • @OGAOutdoors
      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      Yeah Phil it does things seem to work out at least for me when I worry less about my self and more about others. It just took me a long time to get there. I spent a lot of my life being selfish doing things for me and really all that does is create problems. Thanks for stopping by.

      @OGAOutdoors  3 месяца назад

      Yeah I’m out here lurking. Enjoying the heat and dry weather. I moved all those logs with CRF Welding Service modified pallet forks. They work great and I’m trying to be more careful not to apply upwards pressure also. Enjoy your Sunday.

      Yeah sometimes not what you want to do but what you have to do. It’s really all good I’m blessed that I was able to easily get a job back that I walked away from three years ago. Hope you have a great Sunday.

  • @pyroman6000
    @pyroman6000 3 месяца назад +1

    To be fair, I LIKE the crooked, knotty logs, and the limbwood. The former gives me lots of chunks, end cuts and cookies- which i split into grill chunks. Limb wood is just less splitting for me!

      Thanks Candice me too. It’s over with and done again I’m still kicking myself self for not keeping it up to date. Would have only cost a $175 and a couple hours of my time. Oh well live and learn right. Hope you have a great Sunday.

      I guess. I just know the money vanishes. She makes less than half of what her average income used to be. Thanks for stopping by.
