Hawkesbury, ON to Stellarton, NS: A Complete Real Time Road Trip

[@stimpyueediot]

I have seen every video you put out but i haven't watched more than an hour. i just listen to the road and its so relaxing. like listening to the rain.

[@jcd5533]

Yes, really, a Canadian trip from our friend Uncle Coolie! Hurrah!!!!!!😊👏👍

[@patrickcarey393]

Nice recovery after missing Rt 11 east at Bathurst, NB. Applause!

[@unclecoolie]

Thanks!

[@laliecorne1761]

You 're such a good driver, thank you for those beautiful landscapes i can discover thanks to your videos

[@unclecoolie]

Thanks 👍

[@G.R.V-v4g]

Nice to see A85 twinning completed between Saint Louis de Ha! ha! and the NB border. It was only partially done when I drove there in 2013.

[@unhermanoargentino773]

MUCHAS GRACIAS..., muchos de los que estamos imposibilidos de viajar por diferentes motivos, hoy les decimos MUCHAS GRACIAS. Porque así, en tiempo real, podemos disfrutar de los bellos paisajes que posee este hermoso país. Amigos, nuevamente Muchas Gracias por éste hermoso viaje, y sepan que las puertas y las rutas de ARGENTINA los esperan!!...

[@unclecoolie]

Thank you! I'd love to come to Argentina one day. I would've loved to have been down there a couple of weeks ago to see the solar eclipse.

[@americanmultigenic]

I was surprised one can drive in four different provinces in such a short timespan. Mind you, heading the other direction . . . there's about 24 hours of ON ahead, any whichway you go :-) Fun to ride along on this trip! Thank you!

[@unclecoolie]

Yeah, Ontario is massive. It's the Texas of Canada.

[@americanmultigenic]

@@unclecoolie I live in TX, and from the Louisiana line to the NM line: is 12-13 hours . . . so ON definitely is an order of magnitude HUGER!

[@shmuelyerushalmi1025]

Hi, again, after little pause! Very nice and beuatiful landscapes.

[@williamkinsey4979]

Another brilliant trip unclecoolie thank you! Loved the weather!😁

[@unclecoolie]

Thank you! Yes, the weather really cooperated well during this trip.

[@ผมขอโทษครับผมยอมรับผิด]

These clips are very relaxing for me.

[@AmbientWalking]

I enjoyed myself so much watching this! Love it! Thanks!

[@unclecoolie]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@toyorobo]

Addicted to your videos! I've done this same drive (Starting in Detroit) and driving to New Glasgow, NS so many times. This is very familiar and relaxing...love it!!

[@unclecoolie]

Thank you!

[@ALuimes]

You drove Canada's only version of a long-haul interstate end-to-end. Only there's a gap east of Riviere-du-Loup QC, but that's being closed now. And different numbers.

[@AWCTB]

Hope you didn't forget, We'd really like to see Anchorage to Miami, best possible North American road trip.

[@unclecoolie]

I want to go up to AK eventually.

[@osvaldomedina2577]

[@randomguy3814]

wow, a Canadian road trip

[@jmylee]

This area I think I will not travel there, thanks for showing me how it looks like. Thank you

[@unclecoolie]

You’re welcome 😊

[@shmuelyerushalmi1025]

I see, in Canada very clean and nurtured settlements.

[@daniel4655]

I assume the detour at 4:59:50 was an attempt in find a petrol station? Oh, you found the only one in Quebec it seems judging by how busy it is 5:07:05 😒 Do you speak French, or can you get by in Quebec with only English? I hope you get the chance to get out and do some more trips now that covid seems to be fading as I do enjoy your real time videos. Maybe not downtown Ottawa just yet though😀

[@unclecoolie]

I did exit the freeway at 4:59:50 in search of fuel but found none, open at least. I don't speak French, and I'm not entirely sure how difficult it is to communicate with most people in Quebec not knowing French, because I only interacted with a few people while driving through there, and they spoke English. I just did another big road trip, which I'm currently editing now and hope to have uploaded in the next 2-3 weeks. First it will be time-lapse, then real time versions will follow. When I planned this Canadian drive, I originally wanted to drive into Canada via Niagara Falls and drive through Toronto and Ottawa, but I just couldn't fit it into my schedule as I only had 4 total days to do the drive from my house in Virginia up to North Sydney, Nova Scotia and back to Virginia. Eventually, I'll figure out a drive through Ottawa and Toronto, and maybe a more westward drive though Canada from there.

[@daniel4655]

@@unclecoolie Excellent, I look forward to seeing your new video, will wait for the real time version. A trip through western Canada sounds awesome too. Driving across the flat prairies as the Rocky mountains slowly rise towards you

[@unclecoolie]

@@daniel4655 That was how I felt when I drove across the country to Seattle in 2018 and finally seeing the Rockies shortly before arriving in the Denver area.

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

Did you hear about Interstate 40 bridge (Hernando de Soto Bridge) between Arkansas and Tennessee shut down the traffic few days ago? It was due to huge crack on the bridge. There is no timeline for reopening the bridge yet and they are inspecting the bridge. It is gonna take months to fix it. Drivers will need to take the Interstate 55 bridge few miles south as a detour.

[@unclecoolie]

Wow. No, I haven't heard about that.

[@Masonworld1000]

Thank you for featuring my state, Ontario. :)

[@unclecoolie]

My pleasure. I enjoyed the trip.

[@user-zg6ud1lk7c]

Will you do Newfoundland to British Columbia?

[@unclecoolie]

One day I'd like to do the entirety of the Trans-Canada Highway. I've done from St. John's, NL to Woodstock, NB already. I just need to do the other 5,000 or so km.

[@BlaineK]

This was great in the the time lapse, even better in real time. Trips is Canada are definitely a whole other experience compared to the US. Hopefully back on the road soon!

[@ALuimes]

Actually, this is pretty much a long Interstate trip. Much like in the US.

[@bobby68ify]

Hi coolie, another great video and a wonderful day in canada. Love it, you know. ;) .. driving a car more than 12 hours on one day !! I think, that´s not an easy job. Congrats again! my favorite part in this video, New Brunswick, the Route (east) NB-180 from St. Quentin to Bathurst. No civilization, no population, pure nature only. Great. :) Please stay healthy, bye for now, R.

[@unclecoolie]

Thank you! I'm actually getting ready to do another road trip, down to Florida this weekend. Since I don't get to do long road trip very often, I enjoy the long days of driving.

[@HyperActive7]

I don't know what was more funnier, the town with the ha ha or Great Village Nova Scotia. It makes me wonder what the founders were thinking when they were smoking pot around the campfire..

[@unclecoolie]

How about Dildo, NL? Or, Boring, OR & Boring, MD? Or, Tightsqueeze, VA? (A town that drive through on my way to Texas.) I can go on and on. These founders must've had interesting senses of humor.

[@HyperActive7]

@@unclecoolie There's some really hilarious ones in Arkansas that'll make you lose your ribcage. One of the best ones is Dumbass and the other even better one is The Best Flower In Smackover Arkansas.. Yeah, that one about put me on the ground in hysterics when I saw the guy who I was watching filming it..

[@Ostan-jw2bg]

Hey UncleCoolie productions. Are you ever planning to release videos of road trips during the night?

[@unclecoolie]

I don't like driving at night much, and the view would be lackluster.

Thank!

[@AaronDanielLIsles]

BTW what do you do to the video file in your computer after you upload them here?

[@unclecoolie]

I archive most of them on external hard drives.

[@patrickols]

Hawkesbury is where I live, what in the world gave you the idea to start from such an unlikely city?

[@unclecoolie]

It was a good location for a stop for the night when I was planning my trip. At first I wanted to go up through Niagara Falls and drive through Toronto, but there just wasn't enough time. I only had 4 days to drive from Virginia up to Montreal and over to eastern Nova Scotia and back to Virginia.

[@bellagio1066]

Do you use a satnav and if so which one? I use Waze (owned by Google) on my phone.

[@unclecoolie]

No. The camera that I use (the Garmin Virb Ultra 30) records the GPS information on these FIT files that the Virb software uses to display onto the video.

[@bellagio1066]

@@unclecoolie you must be good at navigating. I would get lost driving through major cities!

[@unclecoolie]

@@bellagio1066 I usually am somewhat. I had help from Google Maps, too, as the car I was driving had no navigation.

[@sequoiatree555]

man love watching your vids while acid. it's really a trip

[@unclecoolie]

😊

[@GAMERJUNArtist]

Perfect! You reach goal!

[@wmarkdyer]

I know you're taking a scenic trip but I am completely baffled by why you drove out to Hawkesbury. My thinking was that you were going to drive around Montreal. 🙂

[@unclecoolie]

I planned a 4-day long drive up into Ontario and Quebec, over to Nova Scotia and back to Virginia. Hawkesbury just happened to be where I could get a decent amount of driving in on the first day up from Virginia.

[@davidkuhn3970]

I see you have many traveling videos. What causes you to travel so much Do you drive for business or pleasure?

[@unclecoolie]

I do it for both, but mostly for pleasure.

[@__danisel]

Is it illegal to run this at 2x speed? Thanks and merry christmas!

Do You Wanna Drive to Alaska?

[@Alexkiszl]

[@unclecoolie]

@@Alexkiszl One day, yeah.

[@jobplace5842]

how do you drive all that way with no music!?!

[@unclecoolie]

I listen to music through my earphones (to avoid copyright issues with the audio).

[@thelemonadeboy]

How do you edit these videos? Do you manually change every single part of it or is it automated?

[@unclecoolie]

The camera (Garmin Virb Ultra 30) records to the GPS, and the Virb software extracts the GPS data and puts it on the video. I create the graphics using Paint and Photoshop, and I use Final Cut Pro for all other editing.

I agree.

[@davidm5173]

Since you always rent cars, I’m curious to know if you actually own a car?

[@unclecoolie]

I do, but it's easier to use a rental car. For one thing, I can deduct the costs of the rental car from my taxes, but it gets complicated using my personal vehicle for business reasons. Anyway, I don't have to worry about repairs, either, because if something were to happen in the rental, I can just call them up and they would fix it or lend me a new vehicle.

[@davidm5173]

@@unclecoolie Oh okay, what kind of car is your personal vehicle?
