THE LOUISIANA HOUSE .The first few days.

Just getting settled in and making it more like home. With the way the country is shutting down I may not be able to get subcontractors in here at this time.

House is looking great Joe! Is there anything that you can't do? You are a wonderful stress reliever!!!! Stay safe - lots of hand washing and sanitizer wipes as you travel! Hello to Melissa too!

[@rikkitikkitavi997]

It impresses me how adaptable you are wherever you go. I would be so overwhelmed about setting up temporary housekeeping and you just do it and move on. I hope you make great progress on the renovations.

[@colinpearson6568]

[@derfreklats7921]

Joe, you are like the energizer bunny, you just keep going and going. PS please tell Melissa she is one lucky lady!

[@danaharris503]

Hello Joe, I remember buying a Smokey Joe when I lived in an apartment in South Mpls, used it year round for about 10 years until someone swiped it. I then got a 22 inch Weber and still have it today. I did replace the grills a couple of times over 30 years. I'm in Phoenix now and use propane most of the time, but I still love cooking my turkeys on the Weber. Thanks for the videos.

[@wirogue]

Thanks for the entertaining video Joe. I like your attitude about we all have to keep going. If we act smart and keep the faith we will get past this craziness sooner and smarter for the next calamity.

[@joshuapeterson6072]

Really appreciate you viewpoint/approach to this crazy time. The video of this workcamp has to be unlike anything else Ive seen. Keep em coming Joe.

[@toms4123]

[@mayberrya1b4]

Joe thanks for the sunshine everyone needs it!

[@glennjohnson6045]

Hey what's good Joe. Joe I'm just speechless I don't know how you do it. You go from one job to another and another. You don't know how much I envy that. I wish I had a fourth of your energy.

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Thanks for sharing with us Joe, be safe over there. Fred.

[@sylviabradley7355]

Thank you for understanding we need these videos❤️

[@shauncasey8295]

[@Heidishereandthere]

Thanks for posting Mr. Joe!😊💖 My, you're a fast worker, and everything looks so nice. Stay safe! Blessings to you and Miss Melissa, Washington State USA😊💖🙏🌲

[@debbiemcclure2874]

Joe you never make a boring video. Tyfs God bless you

[@DHarri9977]

Hey Joe, I like the pantry setup, the angles are a great idea with plenty of doorway and room for shelving, it's coming along nicely. Be safe and enjoy yourself somewhere between all the work you're getting done.

[@noocemiller6005]

Things are crazy down in the whole state of LA (I talked with my sister in law down there today, Mar. 23) with an explosion of cases of the virus because people there aren't being careful enough, so you be EXTRA CAREFUL and get out of there SOON. Also, that smoked boudin looked good!

[@jgjg3848]

Be calm everyone & realize that there will be a spike in the number of cases now because people are now being tested wherein nobody was being tested before. Most of those testing positive now have had it for a long time & are asymptomatic. We have more tests available & a lot of people are getting those drive up tests...therefore much higher number of cases. Everyone stay safe & healthy & do what you can to steer clear of people if you're able to.

[@noocemiller6005]

@JG_JG I am calm and have been safely hunkered down for 3 weeks per state of Indiana recommendations. Population of IN: 6.6 million; confirmed cases in IN, 201 with 7 deaths. Population of Louisiana: 4.6 million; confirmed cases in Louisiana, 1,172 confirmed cases with 34 deaths. This data suggests too many people in LA are disregarding social distancing. Contact with infected individuals results in transmission and active cases. Also, only ill people are being tested, asymptomatic people cannot simply drive up and request a test, even in Louisiana. I am in the medical field.

[@noocemiller6005]

JG JG Louisiana’s increase in cases curve now resembles Italy’s, in the US LA is only behind Washington and New York, and this is so even with a relatively small population. This is not “because of more testing.”

[@truenorthliving9557]

On my snowmobile ride home from my cabin I was thinking... Joe should have a good long video up. 23 minutes. 🙄 kidding aside. All you guys that put up great vids are my go to entertainment. Thanks Joe, place is going to look great I bet.

[@stevenkennedy]

Love it - "keep your mind off all the other crap that's going on".

[@RunsWithKnives]

Thanks I needed this video Joe.

[@codyarnold4299]

Keep up the great work Joe

[@uberuberdude101]

i certainly look forward to your videos

[@jeanadamsick9854]

Joe, you are so organized. I like that portable, metal, work station, you set up. I'm new to this site, what is the story on this house in Louisiana, if you don't mind? You are a survivor. Did you learn your carpentry /building skills, from your dad? You are very confident & skilled! Is there a video talking about how you & Melisa, met?

[@beardedalvinjohnsonjr7252]

Never fear Alvin is here, Hey Joe, are you gonna sell the house in louisana when you get it finished? Enjoy yoir videos especially now with this virus scare you are such a calming person thank you, Alvin

[@JennyWinters]

Loved it , sanity in the midst of corona hell. Love this channel

[@annek1226]

To shut the induction burner off, I believe you simply remove the pan!

[@tamistone7344]

Yep that's right!😁

[@andyfreer1343]

Joe doing a nice job on the house 🏠

[@shannonstephens4245]

Brother your Getaways will have Getaways! LOL!! Nice vid my friend!

[@RichardL7836]

You sound just like me Joe, keep living your life through this crap. Don't live in fear but as alway's be prepared. Thank's for sharing the video and enjoy that warm weather, supposed to be close to 70 here in Central MN next week, that will be a wonderful change.

[@ronfetterly8052]

We heard on the CBC news tonight that Louisiana has the fastest growing Corona virus rate in the US. Be safe down there. Also pretty strict interstate travel. We are not too bad up here yet. Can't wait to see the finished product.

[@scottregan4024]

Stay safe and healthy Joe and the rest of your family

[@jwrappuhn71]

Excellent vid Joe, love watching'm.

[@CAPTWESS-nd8ep]

I'm in Prairieville. Passed your house many years while going back and forth to work. Really enjoy your vids Joe!

[@dorisjory35]

Be safe Joe.Prayers and Blessings

[@sandrakohlstedt8583]

Hi Joe! Watching you cook in the sorta “camping out” environment is reminiscent of the tent! Same meals, huh? I like your truck! The sounds of it! Stay well Joe! Camarillo Grammy!

[@REB65]

👍👍. Take care and God bless ✌️

[@earlrichardet2102]

Thanks for the video Joe. Its great to see your video with all the Covid 19 stuff going on. So, look after yourself, we want to continue to see you doing what you do for a long time. Cheers

[@kayesfavoritethings6745]

Thanks Joe for another great video. You always motivate me to get things done. I have just been laid off for the first time. I am a dental hygienist and this virus has stopped me from working so I am going to make a list of all I need to do and I will start marking them off one by one. Prayers for you and your beautiful Melissa. Thanks for keeping us entertained and motivated. Stay safe!!

[@jeannebenzel6533]

You are not very loud tonight--Love seeing this again---have a great day

[@aikendrum3906]

Thanks Joe. I needed a break!

[@oceanbrzzz]

Always happy to see a video has been uploaded when I login. Like many others I also feel relaxed watching your videos, Joe. I’m usually an optimistic, laid back person but recently have allowed myself to feel stressed and anxious about too many things. Nice to see your progress and hear your stories. Thank you very much. 👍👍

[@Jeffykins71]

House is looking great Joe. Stay safe and enjoy that warm weather. ;)

[@jillbritton2676]

[@68francisca]

This really helps me right now watching this..

[@colin8532]

Oh my god, 6 rolls of paper towels, you're hoarding! How could you? LOL, Kidding of course lol. Thanks for keeping the videos coming Joe, It's really something nice to come home to during all this. I see you're going to be in the same boat as me though, your hair is the longest I've ever seen it, it must be starting to bug you, mine is. Best of luck with finding a covered trailer, I'm sure you'll find something. Glad to see you're keeping busy, stay safe brother, and I'll look forward to your next video.

[@nicolejanssens199]

Take care,be safe!

[@a.j.psawmilling305]

Keep the videos coming, we're locked down tight in NY.

[@srh1101]

Stay safe Joe, the UK went into lockdown just this evening so videos like this are great moral boosters.

[@marianfrances4959]

All the best, Joe!

[@leekillman802]

Thanks Joe for sharing! Mentioning Jeff and Julie in the video hit close to home. I worked with both of them several years back. Two great people who embrace life where ever they go. Keep the videos coming! It is a nice change of pace from the constant crappy news and political rhetoric.

[@ladydi4runner]

Trusty Mini Weber! Can’t tell ya how many camping Delicious BBQ meals been cooked on mine! Then some...👍👏🏻😁 Good Q’ing as always Joe. 👍👏🏻Gotta keep up with that Super Metabolism you have! 👍👏🏻🙏🏻😄

[@alzainea1658]

I love your truck. Those older 6.0 diesel F 250s are work horses.

[@michaeldillinghamthe9642]

I love it! That oven thingy🤪

[@timbennett7211]

Great video as usual Joe....thank you. I think it's a great idea to post more shorter videos during this time while people are sitting at home with not much to do. Hey...Have you ever tried microwaving you potatoes rather than waiting all that time for them to cook in the oven? I put them in a plastic grocery bag and nuke 'em for about 5 minutes. works great, saves a little energy and a little aluminum foil.

[@davidharris6581]

Hang in there Joe!

[@north6481]

Stay safe down there Joe

[@3vs547]

Thank you, Joe. Like some of the others have said, it's nice to see life proceed as normal. We're trying to stay close to home to honor the government's social distancing suggestion but it makes me feel confined. I understand the panicked feeling you got when you discovered the broken truck part. Thanks again for the distraction from this crazy stuff that is going on right now.

[@Living-The-Dream]

Great video......👏👍🤠

[@pernellclayton686]

Looking like the ⛺
