Video Transcription

Oh

all right guys so as you can see we're taking this guy apart just leave it like that for now I want to install that tarp just a normal way on that side and well once it's done we'll just take a look at just something simple to keep me away from the rain and heat of the Sun I'm going to keep my frame like that someday do something else I'm even going to keep my hold on take you off the camera here even going to keep my fire pit you guys remember and

just use it for some other time all right got to get to work yeah

look

hello there Holden in this trick okay good

all right so well we've done what we could for today very very simple I think this is going to be cool for now anyway let me give you a look I guess I should take that time hold on second so back up here a bit now took that apart well I mean the exterior and all my main poles are here I can use them for other construction or even firewood it's a little bit protected from this balsam tree and this is what it looks like the tarp it's a very big tarp as you can very well all right oh that's pretty cool look at that see the branches the shadow of the branches through the tarp oh my goodness I never noticed it on film sometimes you see all kinds of stuff alright so you see that it was too big here we had to fold it made one little mistake of course fold it inside you know now the rain could possibly go in but that's not a big thing Joe as you start putting her little whoops Bush pins all right where you just split the middle and put them in now obviously we had a little problem we had no place well no place okay we tied this one here the trees obviously are not always perfect so you know I just threw it over that higher branch there and just tighter down simply down here now this other side here was a little bit worse if I try and get the right angle so the right the tree I would need would need to be here you know if I look at my tarp for it to work so we had to improvise a little bit of course I didn't have a big enough branch so we just tied a piece of rope

to a piece of wood and threw it as far as they could to try and catch as many branches as I could and brought it down here

and just twist it so it would stay that's the piece of wood that I tied it on and it works it's secured so let me give you another angle of it that's what it's going to be it's high so I'm not afraid for the fire the fire can always be protected not too much but what counts is that we're protected I brought it in the two hammock chairs inside right so for now this is going to be you know that's probably going to be a well probably it's going to be a hot summer I know they're announcing it it's like last year so I wanted a protection against the Sun and rain so I can come here and just relax I don't know what I'm going to do with this yet but for now I'm not bothered with it the frame is there so now we need to well you know what guys time to get some maybe some coffee on the go and have a little bite to eat got some more splitting to do so don't know why I just wanted to show you of course this is our trail coming in and well we got a nice big tree that snap this winter but let me show you something pretty cool and we just take time to what even any little tiny things that you can observe sometimes you may find some wonderful stuff anyway as you can see this tree was you know very weak and rotten in the middle and the wind just snapped it but turn around and come here and look what I find inside of it perfect

oh my gosh look at this perfect perfect bird's nest what is this green stuff that's all the birds or whatever was in here you see keep your eyes open and you can find some nice stuff let me put this on the ground a little bit it's a little bit damp though my gosh how do they accumulate this stuff what is all this see that

it almost looks like I took some Joop twine and I done all this but don't worry I didn't well

this is bird nests material and look if I would open this up it's full of it it's full of it this it's just full of it this one is more like sandy sandy button pieces alright so anyway this is going to be a wonderful bird's nest I'm going to let it dry wonder why this is green though the world is this alright enough this well the mystery has been solved people and I was wondering there's nothing green like this natural and this does look so much like goop twine but look how fine and perfect its separated

so my conclusion it is jute twine it's bits and pieces I have laying around here let me show you some I got let's see some pieces there's a piece there a green piece use here tie there and I got all kinds of everywhere bits and pieces so mr. squirrel probably use this for a nest I don't see anything else that could do this or this much it's not a mouse that's for sure but anyway thank you mr. squirrel this is perfect for many bird's nest in the future

pretty cool huh all right mystery soft cozy

she's going to start the fire today and she's going to using the flint and steel and of course our bird's nest is mr. squirrel improvised Joop twine kind of deal I know if it's really a squirrel but it's an animal so the camera is all yours

Wow that was cool let me show you guys again how right there's a camera okay how perfectly fine there's not one piece stuck together you know when we do it if there's you know bunch stuck together this one is just it can be more perfect than that so let's leave your Juke to whine a little bit all over the place and maybe someday you'll find a hollow tree and have yourself already bird's nest good job

well we're out here enjoying a most most beautiful day actually it's kind of weird I haven't seen the spring this week has been in the 20 Celsius all week and it feels like summer a few words concerning you know the video I made on the left handed kind of deal well just to let you guys know that I didn't make that video you know to try and prove a point or try and defend myself that has nothing to do with it I know most of you understand that I just you know put it there to add something to that video because I just didn't want to have to talk that's a little bit boring for you guys you know we all understand that as long as there's a positive result no matter how we do stuff that's what counts right and by the way I'm kind of I'm kind of all over the place I use my left hand to write open a can I saw some would use the right hand for my for the knife for chopping wood all right sorry I have to cut you guys off so yeah I'm kind of awkward you know and even you know sometimes I could even use both hands and I can't quite depending what I'm doing really know which one I'm most comfortable with I'm comfortable with both but other things I know I'll be better with one hand and the other man this is just a beautiful day just waiting for that fire to go down have ourselves a little breakfast and a little bit of coffee but so especially relaxing

so

always happy to have you guys around I wish you could see this no bugs I know you can see part of it it's just a perfect day

at this very moment I'm in need of nothing I don't need to drink I don't need to eat to get warmed up cooled off now that's rare sticks

wait a little bit to the flames go down still okay

over here you could I'll make a place put your pan put the thing first because the egg is basketball halfway and I would be telling them peace bring this here just the stove for them okay all right we put some put in here outside what's your hand in this side here Oh always happens okay all right so sausages are almost done I'm just going to cook some simple eggs and this little tip when I make yourself a little controlled kitchen as you see often in my videos I build a nice fair sized fire right then I bring some coals so that you can have place to cook with her pan and if we have anything else to cook later and the coals you know just become not hot enough I got a spare in the back here that's burning you know burning up so I have some spare coals if ever and when I'm done and then I continue this fire well at least I got you know some nice goals to start her up again so this is going to be pretty good darlin I can smell everything and it smells delicious

so

Oh check this out some more coal there

alright guys show you guys one last time I know you'll be getting tired of seeing this because after that there will be a disappearance that's going to take place mmm

look let's turn here toast is almost done oh yeah a little bit burnt perfect just like I like them with eggs all right so as always we not the end of our day but the end of the video always appreciate your company always fun to have around

next video we're going to be talking about my horizontal care tonight why don't you ask about it so I decided to make a video until then Cheers you
