Video Transcription

okay folks we're on a mini vacation when I say many I'm not exaggerating the word will be gone for about 24 hours we got a little break and we're waiting for the boat to come now if you can see in the back there's an island it takes about half an hour to get there and we'll be spending the night in a modern tepee and that's the main reason why I brought you guys with us I was wanting to show you this teepee because it's pretty cool now keep in mind it's modern TV you should enjoy watching that so as soon as mr. boat gets here we will be safe so where's our ride and yes she will be carrying about I think it's 24 cars here she is slowly but surely okay so we are finally there and I think you guys are going to be privileged to see it maybe you won't like it maybe you will but whatever the case there's only three it exists so far and they're here right now so let's take a look at it now I won't go into the sighs I don't know what all the size is but this is all insulated for the winter exterior is wood interior is gyproc it's just like a little house so cool with that little balcony how cool is that you know someone that's that doesn't need all the this could make a house and there's different sizes too so anyway there's windows and vents and screens and air pockets they're air vents I mean hmm there's a door there's a Josie inside okay let's do this cool laughs so the place to hang your stuff there's some curtains just going to go real fast here because we're getting hungry nice little kitchen and look at that we got a nice view of the ocean there or the river I mean anyway okay there's electricity in here there's a running water little couch little bathroom here now there's another one here that there's there's two actually the other one's a little bit bigger and it has its own shower so you got the bathroom you got someone who's comfortable oh yeah hurrying up that's a message guys okay a little kitchen no water oh yeah your stove fridge cool is that let me hurry up

go upstairs this is about I'd say I'd say maybe 16 18 feet diameter about that's at least 20 foot high not yeah at least okay now maybe a bit darker here and you got your little room which is a nice little double bed and these all open up this is the screen you open the exterior anyway so how cool is that for a teepee modern teepee very cool I'm sure it wouldn't cost too much to build this compared to a normal house even the floor is insulated the walls it's got electric heat i would certainly add a wood stove just a small wood stove you don't need anything big huh yeah well thought of okay so that's it for this teepee now we're gonna go eat we're hungry

well say good morning to my friend that doesn't like to be on camera hey did you go me huh are you doing this morning don't know who sketch is here this morning writing this morning hmm there you go show your beautiful face on camera follows me everywhere in the woods okay it's royalty time for coffee right now

quite the experience this island there's actually 120 souls on this island 120 per mannan residents you know apart from the tourists in the summer there's 120 permanent residents that live here sorry I'm distracted by all kinds of beautiful things here the ocean and the Sun anyway in the wintertime there's no more boat right so they're stuck here pretty much all winter there the only way to be able to travel is by play horse you know assessing the type planes oh you're a tree climber huh okay I'm rambling right now huh we took a walk last night now there's you can't really get lie don't know how big the island and it's not that big but the only row that exists kinda it's like a tea go down at this and let me go that way east or west but we started taking a walk and it's just incredible how quiet it is I know there's not a lot of people but still the island people if said as if they'd all disappear you know at seven eight o'clock at night we had a great dinner

and then we went for a walk and you know a house here and there but where is everybody

nobody's outside that's not like it's Monday so it's a very very quiet place no crime here no violence no of course was only 120 people but still there's no police you know they were going to uh there's a 45 acre land pure land they say that has not been touched on the island and they made a park out of it you know it's not very big it's maybe two three miles the walk but I'm really excited to go there really excited I'm always excited when I'm in unfamiliar territory okay when I finish my coffee oh I'm gonna let my sweetie sleep for another hour and get some breakfast and head outdoors

hey I feel sorry for this little cat so hold on hold on ya know what will will will will will hey what your claws there boy so they hate gentle gentle

must been so hungry yeah take your time to chew it down this is beef jerky folks oh who can resist that who can resist that Wow

okay a little bit more information on the island this is called ittle guru from our a Quebec friends watching in MO Magni Quebec the island is approximately ten kilometers in length you know from east to west and about that's about six miles and about a mile and a half wide the wildlife there's a white-tailed deer which is typical from here and they crossed or they've crossed on the ice you know during the winter and there's Fox and that's it I was surprised when the guy told me there's I mean there's no rabbits no skunks no raccoons I guess they eliminated those you know back in the day so we're going to explore this area that's called point to pick and see anything interesting let you guys know well it's not a surprise right away just a few seconds walking in on this paper birch there's some beautiful chugga also interesting here we have a maple tree and a paper birch twisting one another and they have become one a so I'm walking along you know and check out these these are all the red oak and what's their camouflage duct tape surrounding a plastic bottle and I said to myself that must be part of a geocache kind of a thing and it was I opened it up in its up there's a few things in there I guess pencil there's alcohol tabs or q-tips so I won't disturb that I'll just put it back so would you guys be interested in owning a little cabin on that island over there let's see think I see a couple we could spend a couple days there and be cool what do you think obviously it's low tide and see anything in the camera but

nice place to visit right here everybody's looking at the beauty and I'm I'm looking at all the driftwood there that tiny island there for some reason is familiar okay I got to show you two huge sugar maple trees that must be around 300 years old now I'm pretty far away so you won't see it but right in front of you that is a huge maple sugar tree oh my goodness
