Looks to me that you two have some new life long friends. Ma'am seem to almost have the whole Gift dance down, she must have been practicing prior to meeting up. Good on Red for joining in on the dance. I hope to see more of them in future vlogs.

[@El.Pollo.Loco.s985]

Joe and Gift, we had a great time with you both. We're looking forward to meeting up with you guys again in the future. Best of luck on the rest of the build of your dream home. Red.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

Thank you 🙏 my friend. Hope to see you both again soon. Stay safe!

[@ponbidaed4293]

You built your house at a perfect time. The builder seems to put 100% of his workforce in your house.

[@antruok4950]

Thanks Joe & Gift - more dancing friends for Gift - house is going well 🇦🇺👍🙏

[@gmaninthailand9967]

Joe & Gift, another great video. Can’t wait to see your drone video showing the roof. Joe, I think you might be helping sell another home. LOL. Loved the dance with Gift, Red and his wife. I think Gift has to get you in one dancing to one of these days 😆. Thank you again for sharing my friend. Take care

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

[@supersonicsid5930]

Red has put some soul into the fish dance , I’m looking at it in a whole new light . Stay safe , I’ve heard that Thailand is opening up for tourists on the 1/7/2021 unless the government changes its mind , and that wouldn’t surprise me .

[@patricklannon7011]

Loved Red in " Shawshank Redemption ". Have seen the movie many times!

[@chrisoutdoors]

Your new home is coming along great. Interesting to follow along with it's progress. That sunrise view looking over the mountain from your Master BR balcony is going to be so nice!

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

[@paulcousins1371]

Greetings Gift and Joe nice to meet Red and Ma’am, your house project is coming along nicely I really admire how you are able to talk us through it your builder and pool designers are doing a great job,be nice for Red to build a home, take care folks,someone was missing from the chicken dance 💃

[@johns1834]

Check out the air quality index for Bangkok and Chiang Mai, then look at how much nicer it is in Prachuap Khiri Khan.

[@seanmann863]

So glad I caught Jonny's vid and he let the cat out of the bag. A lot of March babies out there Joe ,St, Pats day myself, 61 and could not even go to an Irish pub for a toast. Gift is a natural chicken dancer she will be a hit at all the weddings.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

Happy belated Birthday my friend. Stay safe!

[@tonypv7]

Hi Joe Gift, house is looking great Guys. Can't wait to see the finish product. Your new friends are nice. Thanks for the video.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

[@Traveler-PKK]

Another great video Joe & Gift. It looks like we will have a few more westerns living or staying in PKK when I get back. The Stadium in PKK where the Gym is located has a hugh olympic size pool for 45 baht a visit. They were restoring it. Very nice pool. I thought you might want to know. I did not even realize was there, then after walking around the area I spotted it. Very nice big pool. The Students also use it in the afternoon. But most the time it all yours. Might be a good video to do on the remodel and the gym. We local expat use the gym and pool alot when we stay in PKK. Membership for the Gym is $30usd per year. You have to get little physical check from the local clinic to give to the gym. It cost like 50 baht for the Health Certificate that you then provide to the Gym.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

I didn’t know about the pool. I am a member of the gym. I will try to remember and repost the video that I did of the gym, that was posted on my old Foreigner Joe channel. Stay safe!

[@btingey]

Always exciting to design and build your own house.... you can hear how happy you are in everything you say.

[@MisterMitchMM]

Great update and meet up Joe. House is coming along quite well. You really do have it planned out. Thank you both. All the best. Mitch 🙏

Two military men get together and they military Words just flow: common area, foot print, etc. loved it! Glad you wore your army colors to meet the Air Force! Hoooaaahhh! PS. You still did not do the 💃

[@alongilgal2913]

Good to see quality (Air Force) expats here in the Kingdom. All too often I come across Farangs who are here without the basic resources to be in Thailand. A welcomed relief.

[@Gswap2016]

The house is coming along just great . Gift and Joe always interesting vlog .

[@scottjohnson921]

Great video again today! your house is looking great!! Man, that's a beautiful area! Love the pool, and the brick walls are looking awesome. Man, that house of yours would be 3x the price back in the states. I hope I can get back to visit Thailand again soon.

[@legambaz]

So nice to see people participating in Gift's lovely crazy dance.

[@hawaiilane155]

I don't think Red remembers, but we met in Pattaya a couple of years ago. House is looking great. Can't wait to see when it's finished!

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

🙏

[@El.Pollo.Loco.s985]

It's a little difficult to see your avatar picture HL, can you shed some light on where we meet in Pattaya? Btw, Mam and I will be moving back to Pattaya tomorrow for a few months so I can start my KZbin channel. If you are still living there we can meet up. Red.

[@hawaiilane155]

@@El.Pollo.Loco.s985 This was at my bar in Tree Town called Nonnoi about 2+ years ago. The bars were all new at the time. I think you said you were renting at the Centric Sea at the time, a place I was looking to buy a condo. Sold that corner bar and got a larger one, 3 times bigger, (Nonnoi) located in the parking area (still with gravel surface) across from the @Lai bar, and still in Tree Town . Now we have 2 live bands playing nightly. I remember all the people I meet there from the U.S. Still living in Hawaii, but my GF (Pook) runs the bar. Hope to retire there in 2 years. Didn't buy the condo, but bought a house instead. Hope to get back there when all the Covid stuff dies down. Hope you're there when I visit next time so we can hook up.

[@pragobtunprasert4758]

Wow Joe! That’s a fine layout of your home 🏡 and probably will be one of the best home built in Prachub. Thank you for your explanation of the construction processes.

[@douglasscott6244]

Thanks for sharing your build. Love to see how they build a home in Thailand.

[@stubbornoldman5834]

Starting to look like a house Joe. I love it when a plan comes together !

[@newmankidman5763]

Joe & Gift, the house project is progressing very nicely. It was nice seeing your guests doing the Crazy Dance as well. Joe, once the house is finished, to celebrate, it would be awesome if you joined Gift and did the "Crazy Dance" with her, maybe Jonny and Chuck could join you as well, to be known as the "Crazy Dance Marathon"

[@Eyre-and-Steve]

Another great Video :) Gotta say the house is very Solid I'm excited for you guys

Lol 😂 Stay safe my friend.

[@btingey]

@@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774 ... thank you. Just got my second vaccine shot and can finally get back to work. Have had an entire year off not being able to work because of travel restrictions. You were very fortunate to ride this out in Thailand. Please be careful until you and Gift can get yours...actually I shouldn’t just assume you want it... sorry, so just be careful. Lots of people care about you now.

[@StephenWestrip]

The house is really taking shape now. It is looking great. Pool area was difficult to visualise before but now you can see it more easily, especially the size of the decking.

[@paulg8730]

Joe and Gift, you meet the nicest people. I like that Red let's you tell the story of his first marriage. Good that people can see that things sometimes just don't work out. It's not only Thailand. Thai ladies are as good ( i think better, but i'm biased lol ) as ladies anywhere. Your house is really flying up and i hope Red can sort something out with JJ, he's lucky you have put him onto a quality builder.

[@SpeedingChang]

Hi Joe & Gift, have you ever thought about a double outer wall? It really makes a big difference on the temperature in your home and save aircon a lot!

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

I did think about it, but after visiting VHomes and seeing what the temperature felt like in the middle of the day, without AC or fans, I did not find it necessary. In addition, I also upgraded my roof as well as added R38 insulation to keep the house even cooler. Eventually I will also add solar panels. Stay safe!

[@STR123able]

The house is coming along! Still a lot of sweaty work. As for those helmets, the Thai workers should know when to need them and when they don"t.... Interesting backstory from Red. Much appreciated and seeing Red and Ma'am. Oh, that Chicken Dance. One person was missing. Now, who could that be???

[@friedonions545]

Always a pleasure watching your journey

Coming soon! I went to PKK to see Godfather Joe, kiss his ring, and got his blessing before dipping my toe into the KZbin waters, lol, I'm just kidding. I was on the fence about starting my channel, Joe is such a good person, he gave me some good advice and suggestions about being a KZbin Creator. Red.
