Afterward, we visit Brigham Young's historic winter home in Saint George, Utah, for a fascinating look at the past, and finish with a secret Tiki mission at a one-of-a-kind shop in Cedar City. Adventure, history, and surprises await-let’s solve some mysteries!
It was amazing to run into Pete Karns in the act! Unless you know the name to google it, nothing came up for me, so what a treat to stumble across a mystery and have it instantly solved

Mister Justin, every time you say "I don't have any skills" we die a little inside. You are so talented and you do and are skilled at doing so much more than the average person. Please start to give yourself more credit. We are in awe of your creations and wish you'd see yourself through our eyes. On your quest for positivity... add yourself to the list. You are so remarkable and no need to put down anything you've done. Say nothing at all instead of ever slighting yourself. We adore ya! Thanks for adding light to darkness!
I agree
100%. He's possibly the most skilled youtuber I watch that doesn't have a channel focusing on their skill (if that makes sense). Like sure, I watch a channel where a guy does amazing sculptures out of clay, but that is the purpose of his channel. I watch Justin, and he's just vlogging, but then he shows off this amazing wood carving, or reveals that he worked on some great music, or articulates a detail about life in such a way that makes me view the world different, and further my quest for positivity. Just so many skills.
So excited you visited the sand sculptures in Mesquite. I have family there and visit them every time we go. I am always hopeful that they will get some notoriety. My favorite is the Statue of Liberty. Awesome video!!! Thank you.
Additional add: The geologic formation is called the Muddy Creek and may be related to the paleo- Colorado River. Cool geology and art.
You find the craziest stuff Justin. This one is very interesting! An amazing artist using a free medium to bring enjoyment to anyone passing by. Just amazing! Thanks for this.
In Peanuts Schroeder plays piano. Linus carries a blanket.
Love your videos. ❤ Keep 'em coming.
That’s Schroeder at the piano, not Linus, but good stuff, Justin!!! 🙌😎🔥
I live in Mesquite! I wish I could have met you. My son and I are big fans of you and your videos.
Statue of Liberty reminded me of the movie. Planet of the Apes without the beach. I love this stuff
Loving this Vegas+ Series
Mr Pete…genius! I wish that he could be paid by the county for such amazing work! Thank you Justin! Your friend, whittle sticks, is such a master at his craft! I have two guitars that need to be fixed, but I am not in a hurry, because aI don’t know how to play them. (They belonged to my dad and his dad) . Loved the Tikis!
Desert videos, Route 66 and Disney are my favorite videos from you, keep up the great work! You really make me feel the classic Americana everywhere you go
Schroeder played the piano. Linus held a blanket.
Nice to see you’re posting more often. Consistency is key! 😂
Justin! My daughter and I hope to run into you out and about one day! Thanks for the Nevada trip, I've been watching them all
Thanks for the videos , justin ! .. always appreciate the time & effort you put into them !
always a trip down memory lane justin used to watch you in 2018
Good ole St. George is my old stomping ground, it’s where I grew up!
I used to drive the Virgin River Gorge every week for years. I even filmed it and posted it to my channel a long time ago. I got so used to it, that I knew very turn and how far I had left. I even knew every spot the Highway Patrol would hide in (traffic would suddenly brake around them.)
What a classic discovery
One of the places im homesick most of all is St.George Utah.
Even though hubby and I were born in Oregon...wr spent 4 years in St.George when my 3 sons were small. Best time in our lives and theirs..we went to so.e park every weekend. Zion was a favorite for 3 small boys and they loved Valley of Fire in Nevada too.
Wr did a trip to Roswell and it was amazing.
Utah is my favorite place we lived.
Watching you there..made me miss it so much.
Thankyou for the info on Pete's carvings. Wow. I'm with you. These are the people that are the silent dreamers. More of this please.
A free gift to the world.
We are contemplating a trip to Utah..it's been a minute since we moved back to Oregon.
Thanks for the memories kiddo ❤
Love seeing you go to my turf
Ps.
We were very much of the LDS culture.
They are beautiful people who are family oriented...they welcomed us with open arms.
They made our move there so much better and helped. We had 3 small boys at the time and pulled in at 2pm in 105 degree weather. And they helped us
Best folks ever
Loved all of this an
As a newbie violin player. .this absolutely was my jam
Thankyou kiddo. .again ❤❤
WHEW! I’m Enthralled! What a day, such interesting clips…..You captured so much in one day. Luke, certainly is a Master in wood design,repair and knowledge. The stone carver was/is amazing….(Hope he wears a mask)…..You with your tiki pieces should be pushing them to wholesale/retail establishments. Great vlog! 🙏🏽❤️
JUSTIN....A TIKI SHAPED VIOLIN? I mean...electric violins are in all shapes....no joke....ask your friend.
I'd be down for that
Oh yeah!!🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻
This is so cool. I was looking at the pics on my phone of those carvings. I was there last September. I was as fascinated as you were. Thanks for all you do.
Mr. Pete has, what my grandfather would have called, a magnificent screw loose.
Wow ! Them sculptures are really cool. It was good seeing your friends wood studio again. What dutiful string instruments he creates .....
Thanks for sharing your video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This gave me food for thought with the ruins everywhere from the puebloans etc. Thank you.
Catching up your videos while snowed in .
Enjoying them all !!!
I was today years old when I found out that Utah indeed has palm trees. 🤯 Thank you for this information. 😅
South of the Sphinx is the little Mt. Rushmore and the little Statue of Liberty which are all on googie Earth maps. Hey
every person needs a hobby. Being retired like Pete Karns is gives you a lot of time to go do stuff and of course your
endevours, with this drive by art, are enjoyed by others. Your friend Luke is amazing. He will never run out of work as
music is important to both Mormon's and schools in the area that teach music. Nice tiki heads there Justin.
WOW!! Definitely need to check it out!
I think since you went on this Nevada trip, one of your tiki carvings could look like one of the rock carvings in the way I think that would be a great inspiration one maybe do the Esther Island statue they kinda look like Tiki’s
Love these daily videos glad your home is safe
First time seeing anything on this. Awesome 👍
Americana at its best, God bless Pete and America😎😎😎
Wow, I didn’t realize you were the first RUclipsr. Cool
@JustinScarred where you bought your jacket? I love it 😊
The artist is Pete Karnes. He lives in Mesquite.
hey!! how's Mesquite Nevada? thats my Hometown!!! ❤❤❤
try out the virgin river gorge that runs through between two state borders!!! NV and AZ!!! 😊
anyways awesome video man!!! 😅
My current hometown, love these sculptures but the weather has ruined most of them. The guy who carves these is local
I just sent Luke the following text: "Hello, Luke! Am watching Justin’s video that includes his trip to your shop and have a question for you. I own 6.5 acres of woods in South Carolina that includes dozens of mature black walnut trees. Since purchasing the property three years ago, I’ve learned that black walnut is a valuable hardwood. Last year, we had a storm and one of the black walnut trees fell. Do you have any recommendations on how I could utilize this wood so it doesn’t go to waste?"
Absolutely awesome never stop aliens are the best
Does art need a reason? Did anyone else notice the smiley face located around 20 feet to the right of Lady Liberty @ 01:50?
Hey JustinScarred how was Disneyland Trip with Alley
You know why they call it the Virgin River? Because you can’t see her bottom 😂 my dad would always tell us that joke as we entered the Canyon!!
Just starting the vid, but I've always thought that Lady Liberty's face looks a lot like Elvis Presley's, especially her lip. Uh huh huh
Brigham young wasn’t the greatest person to say the least I’ll just leave it at that lol but man those carvings are cool
Um, Schroeder, is the keyboardist, within the Peanuts/Charlie Brown/Snoopy, Universe, Not Linus!!
Are you still in St george?
Every time someone subscribes, a unicorn gets its horn! Much Love!
Spray painting rocksshould b against the law
For a really fun history of the Mormon church, see the South Park Episode “All About Mormons” or the hilarious musical, The Book of Mormon!!!
I am so disappointed in you. Those rocks were crying out for a well carved tiki.
And now form the head...It's like Voltron and Shi......stuff😂
Love u Justin, but dang! stop interrupting people when they're talking! 🙄🩵
