[@toddpacheco4748]

Ken,it’s always a great 👍 pleasure seeing you and Lauren out on adventures together keep getting well soon I’m sure you are itching to get back to the work shop but don’t rush things enjoy the rest time 😮😊❤

[@jerryodell1168]

Back in the late 1940s until the 1960s, we had dairy cattle, goats, etc. at different times and we used Bag Bomb almost daily. A separate can was set aside that we used on our dry, cracking hands after we cleaned up, especially during the winter. Worked great.

[@deanbarr5740]

You’re doing well Ken. Just don’t rush yourself and you’ll get back to normal again. Glad you updated us. Please accept any help offered you deserve it. Take care my friend. Beautiful country up there. Thanks for the tour and story you shared.

[@Stewart-t2x]

I loved your drone shot of the area, just awesome. It has been a long time since I’ve been in the Lyndonville and St. John’s bury area. I grew up in North Stratford, Stratford Hollow N.H.I remember going to St. Johnsbury to do some shopping with my parents. Thanks for sharing and take it easy.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks I used to travel up to Connecticut lakes back in the 80’s delivering septic tanks for Calco

[@ronvera]

Howdy from Elkhart Texas ( actually out in the Piney Woods). Great to see you recovering so well. You are a very tough man smiling through all the hurt. Don't forget: No power tools while on pain management. God Bless you.

[@jerrytalley802]

Ken, the people in Tractirs supply told me they sell more bag balm for people to use on their hands and feet, than cows, lol. I use it on my dry feet, thanks to him for saving the formula.

[@tobymeade3222]

🤩Hello Ken🌞🌄 Hope you get well soon 🙏🙌🇺🇸 Wow you had 1 knee,2 knee done 👍 Awsome looking Good for getting 2 knees done 👍👍👍👍🤩🌟🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

[@robertdknight]

"look like I'm cool .., if not, more like a fool" 😅😅😅 cracked me up again! You're doing great. I bet by Easter you'll be out and about and acting like a brand new man. God bless you. Such a pleasure watching the Lyndonville area video. What a wonderful place to see and maybe someday visit. It's just beautiful to see on video. Must be amazing in person. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@kathycrook1913]

Nice tour of town. Thanks

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks for watching

[@keithgriner330]

Enjoyed the video, Ken. GOD BLESS.

[@richardcarter9395]

I never knew the story about bag balm, but my father used to use it for everything on himself. Thanks Ken very entertaining video. Glad to see you’re doing well after the surgery.

[@andrewfrodo2086]

Reminds me of the Grand Canyon Williams train. Great memories. Thanks for the reminder!

[@sandygrant9220]

Good morning Ken , Lauren and Kaiya!!! Fun video!!! Hopefully the knees are going to get a bit stronger each day and before you know it, the pain will be completely gone!!!

[@kenskarpentry]

Youbetcha

[@williampoe8658]

Glad to see you are doing well.

[@RandyHanley]

You're a multi-talented guy. Trumpet, Carpentry, trains!

[@kenskarpentry]

Haha thanks

[@devernebreed6486]

Ken, it's good to see you are improving on your surgery. I showed your video to my wife, Eileen, and she knew what you were referring to about the treatment for the utters even before you said it. She was born and raised on a dairy farm. Her brothers are still running the farm. We loved the video. She looked up the place where you live. You are really up there in VT. Thanks for sharing and keep the faith. God Bless.

[@kenskarpentry]

Very cool thanks for watching

[@kchance76]

Love the history lesson. Super interesting. Keep up the healing on the knee and hop the heater goes smoothly tomorrow I believe. Take care!

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks. They just called to confirm they would be here tomorrow morning at 8.

[@phillipjones3342]

Ken you're looking great hope you're able to walk a lot better now thanks for the video and history praying for your speedy recovery

[@janw3717]

Another wonderful vid Ken, I'm loving these, not that I don't love your normal content as well lol, but from a semi in urban Outer London UK these road trips are breathtaking to see all your local scenery and history! Thanks for letting us know you're still doing OK Ken, but behave yourself and don't push it, or we'll set Kaiya on, with kisses! Love to the fam, including Sandy!*! 🤣❤

[@warrenlucier5796]

Nice to see the knee rehab is going well and the tour of your home town Lyndonville. That Bag Balm is udderly great stuff, I use it on the sole of my dry skin feet, so they don't crack and hurt.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks. Bag balm heals a lot of stuff

[@WheelchairGuyHobbyChannel]

Nice video, Ken. I’m glad you’re doing well.

[@jenboyles5381]

Doing good with those new knees! Thank you for showing us around your corner of the world. I also live in a railroad town and really appreciate this footage.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks. Oh that’s cool

[@johndickinson186]

Ken, Good update, and healing! Great video on Lyndonville. Just love it, and the drone footage. Growing up on a dairy farm with cows until I was 5, Bag Baum was always around. As Paul Harvey used to say, "And now, you know the rest of the story". Hey, Nice legs and knees too! Not pulling your leg, (ouch), just joshing with you. 😎👍

[@kenskarpentry]

Haha I know. Showing a lot of skin there

[@johndickinson186]

Rub a little Bag Baum on those knees and you'll be as good as new!

[@carrieemery7191]

good to see your doing good ken take your time we need you back

[@Ali-ct9pb]

I never knew that bag balm originated from there. Thanks for sharing. Always good to see Lauren. I see familiar landmarks you’ve worked at. Go easy and don’t over work that knee buddy. We want you to be able to be fully strong and able. God bless.

[@freshcut6952]

Glad you are doing well Love the video and seeing the train I would love to come visit your town one day

[@savecolaclibrarynow]

Good to hear your knees are healing and your scenic videos are very interesting, excellent drone work and a good choice of music too!

[@sterlingtechnologiesinc.333]

Hang in there Ken. Good to have you sharing your progress and some of the local history too! I live in Lake Elmore, Vermont . .. just over a few ridges away from you. ~ make it a good day.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks. I almost built a garage on lake Elmore for a retired fighter pilot. It was just a bit to far away

[@donnajoacrey2699]

I loved this video, amazing sunset! Glad you're doing well! Godspeed!

[@judycochran1865]

Good morning. I cannot remember not having Bag Balm in my homes. Nice to learn where it was started. Also glad you are on the mend.

[@kenskarpentry]

Good morning! Yes pretty cool

[@briandish1787]

Good to see you are doing good!

[@kenskarpentry]

[@sharoncaputo9125]

Hang in there Ken . Slow and steady is the best way for recovery

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks

[@johnrzeszuto1827]

Ken, I wish you nothing but the best in your recovery, and a great video of your hometown. best wishes

[@ClimbToGlory10thMntn]

Ken, I predict a real estate market increase for Lyndonville, VT after this wonderful video. Bag Balm is an “Udderly” amazing product for sure and a true testament to your towns proud history and American ingenuity. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@kenskarpentry]

Haha maybe. Thanks for watching

[@redc8783]

Interesting area where you live, hope the knee is healing fine, take care 😊

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks

[@wingman8447]

Bag balm was tough to find years ago usually on in farm stores. Now it’s everywhere. Great stuff. Also you’re doing great, many blessings to you

[@JoeRinaldi-w7c]

You are nothing short of awesome Sir. I discovered your channel close to 2 years ago. I love what you do Ken. Thank you and may God assure that you keep doing what you do. I would love to see a video with all the key players one day. You, Chad , Lauren, and even Kyle! God Bless you and keep up the great work!

[@JoeRinaldi-w7c]

Sorry...forgot about Dan!🙂

[@MrSprintcat]

Ken ,i hope you have a fast recovery. Thank you for the video.i am looking it to going on one of those train rides. I think it would be awesome. Stay safe and watch your step !😊

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks the tickets sell out a month or two before the actual ride in the fall.

[@frankspragg9494]

Speedy recovery Ken. You make me want to travel from NB Canada to see your part of the USA.

[@kenskarpentry]

NB is beautiful as well

[@JohnFoley-t5b]

Mr Ken, i have watched your programs for a long time and if i didn't learn from you i might not watch. I am writing to wish you the best for you and fast and pain free any-one can have. 😊

[@skates76]

That couch looks similar to the couch we bought in Lyndonville back in 2007. In fact, you drive by the store we bought it from in this video. It was a good couch, lasted over 10 years with kids "enjoying" it.

[@jmar5787]

GM Ken, glad to see you are doing well and staying mobile... have a great day!

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks, you too!

[@jerrytalley802]

Ken, hope you get back to normal and back to the wagon/camper. Really looking forward to see it being used.

[@richmargadonna2155]

Hey my friend. Good to see that you're doing so well. Here's my prediction: By Memorial Day, you won't even give a thought about having 2 knee replacements. It'll be like it never happened. Remember.....Memorial Day.

[@brucealvarez9263]

You can moonwalk in ;) Thanks for the trip into Lyndon and the history. Yes, we have Bag Balm in the house.

[@kenskarpentry]

Haha. That’s great

[@troysalen1426]

Great to see your doing so well after 2 knee replacements. I'll be coming from Pennsylvania to your area(Island Pond) the end of February. Vermont is also beautiful in the winter.

[@rdyardie]

It is good to see you making steady progress. Lyndonville, VT looks like an interesting place. The drone pictures add interesting views. By the way, I have never heard of the Balm you are showing in this video. I am not a dairy farmer. I did not know that you were a banker at one time before becoming a carpenter. . . . don't overdo it with your knees still healing.

[@jeffreydye181]

Nice video. We have train a iron mountain railway in our small town that offers short trips at Christmas time we take our kids and grandkids. Very interesting in the bag balm. We have a can in our home in missouri from years ago.

[@richardbritton5280]

Cool Ty

Glad the knee is coming along well.

That was some mean drone flying and I like the music choices.

[@hardtimes1132]

I'm glad your doing better Ken

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks

[@jpjp3873]

Looks like a nice town. Like the one portrayed in Groundhog’s Day!

[@quietkate]

Delighted you're on the mend, but it is still the dead of winter in New England. Alas, ice & snow remains treacherous, I bid you safe paths & sure-footed workshop treks to investigate the new furnace.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks. Furniture installation tomorrow. Can’t wait to watch. It’ll be my first time back in the shop since my surgery

[@mikeisley4445]

Glad you're recovering well

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks

[@vnguyen9327]

Get well and take good care.

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks you too

[@Pamela-e4w]

Another Great Video:) Have a great day!!

[@Hosty_Tim]

Goooooooooood morning, Ken!

[@StoneKathryn]

I'm so glad that plenty family members are helping you get your needs met with the second knee surgery. I hope you can walk into the check-up with no discomfort! Managing pain is hard. I hope the new furnace gets installed with no problems. Too bad you lost power. I'm glad the chickens got through the power outage. Nice, you're doing some 3D printer stuff! Thanks for showing this video for us again. So a band member was named John Norris. The Bag Balm story! Cool. He started his company in Lyndonville Vermont. That is a great story. Then the Green Mountain trains you showed us again. Thanks for these videos Ken!

[@cekfraun]

That was a beautiful video of the train and surroundings at the end, Ken! I remember when you and Chad and Dan were working on that building. I'm enjoying these videos about the interesting history of your area. Our family has been using Bag Balm for decades, ever since my girls were young and riding horses. I keep a can of it on my nightstand. That was cool to see Lauren by the giant can of Bag Balm. 😃 I'm so glad to see that you are doing well after your second knee surgery. Prayers continue for your speedy recovery. 😊🙏

[@byronholmes2496]

[@cathysteenson9591]

Interesting story about Bag Balm. I've used it for a lot of things, Animal and human. Hey, about 10:40-10:50 I recognize that place on the right, red building, white railings. I remember you guys fixing the porches and ramp on that place.

We'd use that Bag Balm on the face when skiing at Jay or Stowe.

[@kenskarpentry]

It’s a great skin product

@@kenskarpentry Lol. 2 years ago I had to replenish a tin that Ive had since the 90s.

[@Cat955H]

Your 4 legged companion is good for recovery! No ice skating! 🤪 Activities associated with dog ownership, like feeding, grooming, playing & letting them outside, all increase physical activity levels. Physical activity improves blood flow, induces muscle contraction and reduces joint stiffness!

[@kenskarpentry]

Thanks so much

Grain business appears to be good for the railroad

[@davidj2874]

Glad to hear you’re healing nicely, take it easy and get plenty of rest. Quick question, do your new knees make that sound like the six million dollar man? Just curious 😂. Did you ever play trumpet on the Lawrence Welk show, you look like someone I seen on there before 🤷🏼‍♂️ God Bless!
