You moved away from the arctic north? Finally, congratulations! But aren't you afraid you'll miss those 6-foot snowdrifts in May?

I love seeing y'all as together as a family and having a great time with the trip. I hope that I can do that soon with my family because I haven't seen them in over 2 years due to covid and that I'm in a different country and is very expensive for them to come over. I love this channel.

what an awesome family. man/wife that love and respect each other, kids that are behaved and will grow up to be decent, productive adults due to good parenting. working hard, doing what you love, inspiring others.. what a great channel. gives a fella hope for this great country yet.
