    I like your videos. THEM NUTTY BARS!!!
    Always gotta rotate that food... old on top, new on bottom. A very wise brother from Mississippi taught me that.

    Very informative video. Its the same at the homestead. Unload everything very quickly and wave goodbye 👋. Seriously though, not that you weren't an awesome employee, if you ever come work with me again can you show me where that hyper button is? I want to push it and watch you do all the work! Stay safe kid!

      @@AlaskaPirates still fairly cold. Nighttime slightly below zero. About 20 in the day. Getting our usual snow for this time of year. However the days are getting longer very quickly and you can tell the end is near. 🌈

    That's gotta be one of the top 10 most expensive grocery runs !!!

    • @AlaskaPirates
      @AlaskaPirates  Před 3 lety

      You would I be surprised at how much MORE expensive it can get! The further you live away from a Costco, the higher the price gets. For example, in western Alaska, there is a hub town called King Salmon, it’s surrounded by a bunch of smaller villages, fishing lodges and commercial fishing communities. The price of a 12 pk. Of natural light is $25, a bottle of R&R is $50, milk is $8-10, and a gallon of gas, depending, can also be from $8-up😳

      🤣 I actually really like Cancun too🤦🏻‍♂️ I think you will enjoy Alaska, I moved up here from west Texas 20 years ago, I came up for university and fell in love with the place and the life style. I know several ppl that have or still do go prospecting, they seem to enjoy it, there are A LOT of mining outfits in the state, I expect they are finding something, they have to be in order to keep all that heavy equipment full of diesel.

    nice video again. thanks for sharing it. I didn't realize that you're so far out from your last vids. Maybe too personal to ask, but ... you seem to like people, hence the YT and your communication. why going so extremely deserted and not seeing other people for months? ... anyway, enjoy your time out there!
