Billions of dollars in taxes!!! Not being used for America!!!😮 People need to wake up!!!!🤬
LOL Look into Project 2025 !
Let’s go Brandon
Don't get me started. I think its funny that the Demonrats are falling out of sorts.. Bring on big Mike!!!
@@tom519azthese people do not care about the actual truth. They’d rather be comforted with lies.
First of all We are letting all of it happen! It's all unconstitutional and corrupt! And that's why we have 1791 but the citizens won't use their Right and take America back! It's in our hands and has always been in We the people's hands! Wake up America
We moved to southern Missouri. Very close to the freedoms of yesteryear. Shocking change from Illinois.
We called the county to find out what permits we would need to build a house. The lady asked if we were building in a subdivision or had an HOA. We said no, we have 80 acres. She said, well that would be none. Love it.
PA use to be like that. Until the state adopted the UCC. Now you have to buy the rules to see what they are. The only good thing is when the UCC is amended the state has to decide what to accept unlike NYS. The big thing was sprinklers in homes and PA quashed that idea. Before it was if your local municipality had building codes and of the 40 municipalities in Susquehanna County only three had codes and about 10 had some requirements. Now one even required green roofs along with green painted shutters, well until someone decided a white roof along with yellow shutters on the purple house. Then the higher courts agreed with the home owners.
❤❤❤❤
Mike, As A British Citizen , I Think We Are Worse Off Than You Here In The UK , Its Terrible😢, We Need To Turn The Clocks Back Fifty Years & Start Again 🇬🇧👍
Mike just a thought that is world wide any governments it doesn't matter who in , they all want us to act like sheep and do what they say
And we've now got a socialist (communistic) government with a huge majority; come back in 5 ears and tell me you want to be like us. (a sad old Londoner)
Here in the U.S., we need to turn time back 163 years to get things right again!!!
Mike, I can sympathize with your plantar fasciitis as I have SUFFERED immensely from it too.
The “Good Feet Store” was an expensive rip off, in my experience.
It did NOTHING for me, except empty my wallet!
One year I had it so bad that I could hardly walk.
I was on a duck hunting trip, and spent a PAINFUL day trudging through the mud in my chest waders. I honestly felt like dying.
The next morning the PAIN WAS GONE! I MEAN GONE!!!!
The day spent walking through the mud had caused my to STRETCH the ligaments and wear down the “spur” causing the pain!
Stretching exercises is the key to alleviate the pain.
@@lonniechartranduhhhh, so you wanted the south to win the Civil War?
You’re not going to catch any grief from me Mike. I with you all the way.
The pain is real, Melissa. Plantar Fasciitis pain is excruciating first thing in the morning. I used to feel like I'd trodden on the sharpest stone. Brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it. Stay strong, Mike.
I thought it might be something like the psychological emotional stress cause by a persons inability to face planting a flower garden .....or something like that !
Awesome video! Love yall! Freedom isn't Free !! God bless our Military, First Responders and True Patriots like Yall!
Keep talking about freedom Mike. You have a great platform for it, so why not.
Keep being yourself “Mike”. That’s why we watch your channel.
Mike I totally agree with you, as a vet who served 2 tours overseas. This is the greatest country even with our faults!!!
They ruined logging out here in the Pacific Northwest back in the 80s because of the spotted owl. Then it turns out it was the Barred owl, and now they plan on killing half a million of them! Let nature sort itself out!!
Today is my 56th birthday, and I got a freedom "rant" from Mike!
I love it. Keep 'em coming!!👍👍👍
Happy birthday compadre!!!
Happy Birthday Mr. Thomas! May your day be Blessed
Thanks so much!@@freepatriot6313
Thank you, John!
The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace@@johnaddis1022
The endangered species act put spotted owls over people. It ruined jobs, logging towns and families. In some way, it reminds me of the governments global warming agenda.
"Who cooks for you, who cooks for you," is the call of the Barred Owl. Definitely a favorite in the North Georgia mountains.
Who cooks for you, who cooks for you-all.
It is “no soup for you”
Love N Georgia Mountains...My home for 63 years.
PF is no joke. I find that rolling my foot over a frozen water bottle helps with the pain and inflammation. Glad your finding relief.
When I had PF I tried everything, what finally worked was arch supports and a plastic ball that has spikes on it. Roll that ball with your foot twice a day, it doesn't feel real good, but in two weeks my PF was gone. I haven't had any problems since.
At 11:39: Melissa, "... in the mornings you'd swear he didn't have a leg." Priceless. And sounds like my wife!
I tried a lot of various therapies. What finally worked for me was Hoka shoes with orthopedic inserts.
I have had PF for decades. In the winter I would go outside and stand on freezing cement. In warm weather I use an ice block. I found using anything to roll my foot on made it hurt more. I also wear very flat slip on shoes which I have been told are bad but for me they work. Keep using your inserts but try the ice as well.
PF is no joke. First need to stretch more. Back of legs, ham strings, achilles tendons, etc. then see a chiropractor. Something is NOT aligned right. Then ask or search taping your feet for PF…
Next… your statement about freedom. Watched long enough to know you won’t vote for the current administration. However you say you want freedom to do what you want and to be free…. That is what this administration is about. But nope you won’t see this point of view. The side you will vote on says they want freedom, don’t tread on me, pew pews etc…however the group your support wants to take all that away with over turning roe v wade, put women back to having NO rights etc…. Yea vote for freedom but careful who you support in November….. could be your last vote you make.
Poor Blueford. He doesn't get used.
Yup, shame
Absolute Shame !
Its just a wood yard ornament taking up space. I don’t think Mike is a “will it start” kind of guy.
Had big plans for it. I think that has changed. I'd sell it and let someone get some use out of it. Better than just rusting away 😢😢
LOL - That was my thought too - he's trapped !!!
Mike, Three years ago I installed an owl box in the woods behind my house. We have watched three broods of 2 Barred Owls each year. I feel very grateful to be that close. Washington state should leave nature alone and let them survive as they should.
Agreed completely. We are the patriots, Mike. The ones who insist freedom is still our highest ideal. Because we are prepared to pay the cost to preserve that.
Keep celebrating your Freedom Mike and Melissa, how ever you feel it serves you and your family.
Love the way the two of you banter back-and-forth
Wow, what a beautiful baby it’s a pleasure to see a baby smile. It just makes you feel better. God bless her and God bless you guys. What a beautiful life you have. I’m envious of you.
Keep standing up for your rights and what you believe is freedom . 🦅 Thanks for sharing your video about the owls it is sad. 👍👍👍👍👍
Watched one of your videos from 6 years ago gosh what a change in all our lives , so enjoy your channel thanks for your videos and all your comments on life from Peter here in France
Welcome to getting old Mike!😊 pain management is a way of life after 50.
I too had PF for many many years, tried all kinds of inserts, specially shoes etc. I later on hurt my knee removing a mower deck from Kubota tractor. From favoring the bad knee for a year my good knee started hurting too. This all about 8-10 years ago. 2 bad knees, PF in right foot. Went to numerous doctors, nothing worked or worked for very long. In 25 minutes at the Good Feet store I spent $1,500 on their series of three plastic inserts and began wearing them and followed their plan. I went in because of the knee pain but the PF was hurting too. They said “our system will fix it all”. It Did. It’s been 2 years and knee pain is gone , PF pain is gone. Started getting better in about 2 weeks and kept on getting better. Sorry Melissa but you and anyone who has not had PF pain just don’t have the perspective to be critical of someone that has the condition. Thanks for producing such quality content, I am sure it’s difficult to get all the quality shots you have in your videos.
"Don't stay in your safe spot." Funny, I just had this conversation with a coworker today about that, in a company that is in the hands of leaders that are clueless. Truth and transparency wins.
My wife is just like Melissa, no compassion for me lol ! Compassion for others but for me she just says “walk it off”! Glad I’m not alone !
you two are so right for each other, it's a joy to see and hear you talk about your lives together. mike I hope your foot heals quickly. thank you for these videos, I enjoy them so much. when I get up your videos are the first thing I watch.
I have several Barred Owls around my property. I got a great photo of one just the other day. Just an awesome bird.
We are all for FREEDOM too!!! Love your views on it all!!! We would get along fantastically!!! Love you all. Thank you for what you do. Take care and may God overwhelm you and your family with blessings!
I'm with ya Mike. I appreciate being able to do as I please on my piece of this earth. I know that not everyone is capable of that. Sorry you are dealing with the pain in your foot, hope you heal quickly.
I used to have real bad Plantar Fasciitis. I had custom foot inserts made from the foot doctor, they helped some. What really helped me was losing 30 pounds. Now no fit problems and I am a lot healthier. Fifty years after high school and I am at graduation weight with a goal getting below 200, which would be 8 grade level.
Stay safe and keep up the talking about our lack of freedoms.
God bless All Americans.
Nobody want’s to hear this but Americans in whole are super overweight and can probably thank their lovely FDA for seed oils etc for a host of problems🤷♂️ Just saying ! It’s always back to the all mighty $ do some research
Hey Mike,
I was in Lowe’s at 6am when they opened, I had to get a few sacks of mulch in the garden center, it was still dark and as I was loading the mulch onto the cart, this HUGE RAT went running across the top of the shelving. The next thing I know, this MASSIVE OWL swoops down out of the darkness from the back of the garden center, grabs the rat, and flew back to where is was perched in the back of the garden center. It was SO COOL and SO SILENT, gotta tell ya, I was thankful for that owl that morning!!
That grand child is so cute and blessed to be in your good grasses. That's the best looking child. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for being you and not afraid to show it!
"I worked in the field of disabilities for 25 year.....very compassionate to those in need....pretty good at showing compassion..."
"Not to my problem you're not."
Welcome to the world of marriage.
I LOVE Mike's solution. "Just paint spots on them" LOL. It makes a lot more sense than killing all those owls. Great video. Thanks for sharing it with us. Regards from central Arkansas.
i agree . i missed seeing your fireworks .my birthday . your were the best . realy enjoyed them . someday you may have the event again . god bless the morgans thank you for all the joy and information . go hunter go.
Mike I feel your plan, My wife the same way! Your dog get more compassion then me! Mike you should get some steel targets for next year & Let Freedom Ring!!!💯💥👍
Sounds like a heel spur. I have experience with the same foot problem. I went to a podiatrist and spent over $800 on orthotic shoe inserts. After 2 years it made my feet hurt even more. Next step was to have surgery. A friend suggested I go to a reflexologist. The reflexologist ground the heel spur off with a hot stone (took less than 20 minutes) and I haven't had any trouble in over 15 years. And it cost me about $35. It's worth a try.
The barred owl is one of my favorite animals and I really love listening to their calls. They are just the coolest birds.
They really are, just fascinating
Boy , that's really a compassionate viewpoint - always nice to know your wife is so concerned about your wellbeing .............
I ve had it for six months and the pain sucks. So I am glad you came out with this. Maybe I can get so relief.
Mike, in Maine (live in PA) while field mowing I observe the field mouse and a mouse that jumps like a kangaroo. That is a woods mouse. One day I watched a wood mouse jumping about 3 feet high and on the third jump a hawk picked him off at the third jump 15 feet from me. Never will forget it.
I love calling barred owls with my voice, while I'm turkey hunting, love you guys
Very cool seeing the vermeer in action! Very handy little machine! Spot on with the closing statements also!
Wow !!! That mini looks as handy as a handle on a pump. Love your content.
I get what you are saying Mike. Back in 2000-2008 I owned a cabin in Accident Maryland, the State of Maryland implemented what we called a flush tax to anyone who owned a septic system. The money was to be used to help clean up the Chesapeake Bay. Even though my property was located on the other side of the Eastern Continental Divide and there was no way anything from my septic would make it to the bay, I had to pay it. Still scratching my head on that one.
Love watching the two of you - Hilarious! Nobody is a hero in their own kitchen... Happy to hear your getting relief on your foot pain; I watch my wife suffer with her Plantor Fasciitis and it's no joke (and she's tough!). Agree 100% with your assessment of the state of "Freedom" today in our country but it is "our country" and still the best in the world!! Totally understand your family's need to take a break this year on the 4th of July party. You both have to be some of the most productive people I've ever come to know (through your channel). You have inspired us to grow our interests and skills and we have totally transformed our lives by spending more time outside!! Keep up all your hard work, we have shared your story with several hard-working close friends, and they enjoy keeping up with your adventure now too!
Oh me…. Mike and Melissa I whole heartedly agree !!! Would you be up to running for office ?? lol. Have a great day compadres. Randy in Texas.
I know your struggle Mike, my wife is a nurse, I came close to removing my entire thumb, not an ounce of compassion, the stuff we have to put up with😂.
Dog license, “pet peeve”. Good one Mike.
I think you are the only one that picked up on that so far lol
It drives me nuts too!@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans
I had PF a few times, the most help was some simple exercises found on RUclips.
I built my house in 1975 and only had an electrical inspection in order to get connected. I did ALL the work except laying block and stretching the carpet. Something has to give!
Mike/ Melissa, keep doing what you are doing. I am a79 year old Pennsylvanian transplanted to Florida, former hunter and user of Schroeder fireplace. My neighbor and me would hunt in the morning and cut trees down in the afternoon about 25 miles from home. Haul the wood home split it by hand and get ready for the cold days. We did this after getting electric bills over the roof. I truly enjoy and envy what you two are doing. I miss the mountains and the four seasons. Again, thanks for your videos. Bob
Good morning Morgans and friends
I had PF 25 years ago. My doctor prescribed 3 ibuprofen 4 times a day for a month. It worked like a charm. I am a farmer and have not had PF since.
Big party is commendable!! It is alot of work!! Yall are blessed ... true blue american family!!
Hi Mike! Was a long haul trucker for 30 years. Had similar issues related to you, but far more severe symptoms than what you are mentioning. Was preparing to get the traditional surgery for this issue. I had a regular route several decades ago from New England to Pittsburgh every Sunday night for a few years. While in Pittsburgh I would listen to a local chiropractor, Dr. James Winer, who had a clinic in Pittsburgh. On one of the programs he talked about his treatment for plantar fasciitis. I called his office and set up an appointment for the following week. After about 1/2 dozen treatments I was cured. Over the decades later, occasionally I felt a the beginnings of the plantar fasciitis returning. I started up the stretching exercises he had given me and the pain went away. The treatment started with a rigorous stretching of the Achilles tendon with a hard rounded plastic tool with small ball at end of it. A little painful😳😂. They mixed in some deep muscle massage of the calf all the way up to gluteus maximus. After 1 hour of this I would meet with Dr. Winer for the chiropractic adjustment. Then he would give me 3 exercises to do every day until the next appointment. The first was to stand facing a wall and lean forward with palms against wall with only the toes of one foot touching the wall about 2 inches. The idea was to stretch the muscles/tendons from the tip of the toes to the heel. The second stretch was the traditional runners’ hamstring stretch. That stretched the muscles between the glutes and where the hamstring inserts into the bottom of the heel. There may have been a couple of other exercises like touching toes while standing, but it was 20 years ago and that’s what I remember. Dr Winer explained that long haul truckers spend 10 hours a day(currently 11 hours a day) in the sitting position. This leads to a shortening of the hamstring. When we go to sleep on our back the legs are in the extended position. The pain in plantar fasciitis results with the shortened hamstring tendon tries to pull out of where it inserts into the bottom of the heel. 😢Am medically retired from trucking last year and have not been through Pittsburgh for a while. Checked and found that the Winer Wellness Center is still quite busy, but the founder, Dr Winer, died in 2017, some saying from mysterious circumstances. Who knows. I do know he and his staff were experts in treating environmental allergies, such as peanut allergies, etc. Even 20 years ago they were quite busy and on the expensive side, but as far as the plantar fasciitis treatment, as long as you did your exercises you never had to go back. Dr. Winer also mentioned that if you did regular stretching exercises you need for regular chiropractic treatment would be greatly reduced. He would say that stiff muscles would cause the skeleton to be pulled out of alignment, necessitating weekly chiropractic adjustments, which he felt was ridiculous and unnecessarily expensive! Best of luck to you and your family. My appreciation for everything you are doing compelled me to contact you. If you have any questions feel free to email me. 😎
Those big get togethers just get tougher and tougher as we get older each year.... More time, more money, more responsibility, more liability, more money, all leads up to zero fun for the folks that host it.
The best thing to do if you're hosting big parties is to delegate away as much of the work as possible. And of course, the wealthier you are the less you worry about the costs.
Any sort of party/get together takes an unbelievable amount of planning.Thanks would be nice ,some help before and after even better but people attending and never for a moment thinking of reciprocating is the pits -they always have an excuse and seem to think that their presence is sufficient.
Mike, I had a similar experience while bow hunting. An owl, which fly silent, landed in a tree right beside my treestand in an adjacent tree, just a few feet away. It was holding a squirrel, it spotted me and dropped the squirrel and flew off. Crazy experience.
Awesome discussion and commentary!! And as always, spot on!
I love it when Melissa is the truth checker!!! She brings Mike down to ground so beautifully. 🤣
We now let our kids do the fireworks, cooking, cleanup on the 4th of July. We come, eat and watch...Plantar is soft tissue and takes its own time to heal...
Blueford looks lonely back there!
Good Morning Morgan Family- Have a Fantastic and Blessed Day
Great and very pertinent rant! God bless!
Is there a price tag on my comfort?? LOL. Most of us can sympathize with Mike & Melissa's point of view.
Who gives a HOOT👍👍👍
Love it, Love it, Love it! Speak truth, facts and reality. Best channel ever!
Mike I have had that lost weight that helped plus Custom made work boots that was the ticket I don’t have it anymore thank God Mike you are right it hurts like hell Melissa he’s not lying it’s really really painful
Great video Mike
A few years ago, before my mini-schnauser passed on, there was a large hoot owl that would set on the fence in my back yard. I swore it was sizing up my dog for an easy meal. The owl has since moved on and I haven't heard it in the neighborhood for quite a while now.
Since the barred owls weren't introduced out west and just naturally migrated out there I think they should leave them alone and let nature run it's course. That may seem harsh to some, but man doesn't have a very good track record when it comes to interfering with nature.
Beautiful family! Totally understand about the party. A lot of work. Maybe next time.
A very enjoyable video today. I enjoyed the banter between Mike and Melissa. My wife has the same empathy for me when I'm hurting.... suck it up comes to mind. I agree about the excessive government interference in our lives, and taxes....I just bought a used Mule, and a used car, and paid over 1200$ in state sales tax! And what for??? Anyway, on a lighter note, the car I got was from an estate sale , a Ford Escape, 2013...very, very clean. It had the original window sticker, and on it said it was sold to the Ford dealer in Zelienople! I just smiled, and felt a connection to you all! Thanks for all you do, My wife and I both talk about your videos most every day. Enjoy your day!
Couldn’t agree more, definitely should not be killing any Owls. They are wonderful native birds. Uk 🇬🇧 also has them on the protective list. There’s a cool RUclips video showing a Owl in flight and it’s completely silent.
Different species. Barred owl not barn owl
I live in Communist Oregon and enjoy watching your channel. The spotted owl destroyed our logging industry.
The only endangered species is American Citizens! I don't know personally, but I've heard spotted owl tastes like chicken.
Hey Mike, Don't sweat for 40 years. June 3rd was 64 years for me. I hope to have a few more. My advice would be to remember all the friends and acquaintances you have made over the years.
Love your shirt Melissa!! West Virginia will get in your blood!! Hope you get better soon, Mike.
Did your son in law make it on the Olympic team?
He didn't but did finish #10 in the nation.
tax on tax on tax after tax.... 50% of your check goes to taxes one way or another... probably closer to 60%
Oh boy - you talk about hitting a sore spot - our property taxes go up around 250$ every year! Retired - fixed income !! Enough
Glad you had PF checked...I got it when I was playing Senior Woman's basketball...played on some cement courts...set it off....went to a podiatrist and never had it again...glad you took time off from being host and hostess for the 4th....love that you do you......best way to stay happy...have a good week...
You guys are Soooo normal, TY
Good morning .... Entertaining is HARD WORK You guys have a great day !
I have rescued two bard owls out of our woods. Lot work. Hand feeding. They eventually went to wild bird sanctuary. Great experience.
Mike, just a suggestion. A 4in1 bucket for your large or small track loader would be a great tool in your tool box. To reach up over and grab material is a great way to get it moved. Love your channel, keep em coming!
Mike, I have had plantar fasitis several times .I bought a tens unit on line and used it for several weeks. It really helped me and rest it whenever you can . I am a flagger and on my feet all day.
I enjoyed your conversation. All true.
I'm with y'all!
Headed to an Orthopedic appointment for the same problem. Glad that you are getting some relief.
Your Outdoor channel just popped up in my RUclips feed, And My 40 th class Reunion is this summer , in N.C. Ohio, Crawford county
Good morning. I really like your conversation you put out. Keep up the good work Mike
I USED to watch The Regis and Kathy Lee show..I would gladly watch tlThe Mike and Melissa show.
Hi Mike and family. It's part of being free to say: we are no longer making a big 4th of July party, from here on out we are taking things slow. About dog licenses, like most of the restrictions, is about "those people" who don't take care of their pets and about accountability if something bad happens. Down here in MX, we have nothing of the sorts, but we also have packs of dogs that turned wild because they were abandoned and had cases of those packs attacking little kids and adults.
Love your rant and I'm right there with you!
Wow mike, your 40th class reunion! You look well preserved for your age :)
Everything you guys say is true, and I'm with you!
Couldn't agree more Mike, I to am a FREEDOM loving American and am profoundly saddened how many freedoms we have lost and even more sad to see the numbers of Americans that are okay with that. Yes vote for freedom!
I have the same problem with my feet as well Mike. I can totally sympathize with you.
Hello Morgans. Your channel is such a welcome escape from the state of our world right now. Wanted to weigh in on the plantar faciitis. I’ve been a fitness instructor for almost 30 years. Had it bad a number of years ago in both feet.
Did all the things, footbeds, freezing water bottles, dragging a towel toward you with the toes, etc. It lasted until I started teaching yoga. My recommendation is doing ‘downward facing dog’ and then bicycling your heels. Do this after you’ve been active for a bit (warmed up). Mine completely disappeared.
I was plagued with plantar fasciitis for a number of years. I had numerous visits to podiatrists, including cortisone injections, followed by intense physical therapy sessions to no avail. Concluding that surgery might be upcoming, my PT sessions were curtailed, keeping my eligibility for a number of them in case they were needed for surgical follow-up. As a last resort my doctor decided to fit me with custom orthotics, not covered by insurance. Wearing them felt like I had a golf ball under my arch. However, after a number of weeks my pain just disappeared. I do daily stretching exercises for the foot area and have been pain free ever since. Good luck with your therapy at the Good Feet store, Mike!
You r so right, ty Steve
Hello Mike and Melissa, Good feet stores are everywhere and yes a bit pricey but they can get you more comfortable.
I agree with the taxes and the owl things, just crazy overboard with everything.
Let Freedom Ring!
Just had my yearly cookout and I here ya, it's a ton of prep and ALOT of clean up but I do enjoy smoking the meat for it. always proud of the food I cook for it and the reactions
