The Struggle of Owning a Business in France

Could listen to your Dad all day. He is a natural on camera you must be so proud of him.

[@ThePethericks]

love seeing your dad ryan! if there’s anyone to talk to about running a fishing buisness your parents are the ones!!!

Miss you boo ❤️

[@thewilliamseswonderfulworld]

@@lifeofryan. We miss you on The Pethericks channel but are glad to see you helping the family.

[@melindalewingellis1923]

Ryan you can’t imagine how much that must mean to your Dad to have to there and helping him. Don’t worry about whether we like the video or not. Go have fun with your Dad and just film it. We will like it. You must know that there is a reason we all watch. I don’t know what it is Hahaha but I never miss a video.

[@janelord6461]

Did Billy see the statue of Christ you found at the brocante? It would look amazing hung on the wall opposite where the gallery was (at the far end I think). There is an area there that looks like it was made for it.

[@lucyyoung5307]

Have I already said I have big respect for you for helping your dad? Well, I do. You’re a great guy. I have two wonderful sons that help me when needed. Thanks for being you, Ryan.

[@kathleenestep2419]

Lovin’ your vlogs , your Dad is a stitch, I see where all the positivity comes from. Hope your Mom is well.

[@mavep2855]

All the struggles your Mom and Dad had and they raised a family at the same time, well done! That flypast was very strange indeed. 🙏❤️✈️✈️

Military C130s

[@1947bonanza]

Airbus A400M, not a C-130

[@ShanghaiGoat]

@@1947bonanza do they have props? That’s why I thought it was the c130

[@1947bonanza]

The A400M was developed as a replacement for the C-130 starting in about 2003, but thru delays and cost overruns not flown until 2008 and finally delivered into the French Air Force in 2013. It fills a niche between the C-130 and the C-17, and yes it has props. It can carry more than the 130 and still use unimproved landing strips. France, Germany, the UK, Spain, and another dozen or so countries have taken delivery so far. The anhedral wings, T-shaped tail and larger size differ it from the C-130.

Your Dad is an absolute gem Ryan. Take good care of him. ❤

[@Victoria14357]

As a self employed small business owner in the USA, I would say your fathers thoughts are sound, all the way around. Your family is simply delightful.

[@tomfrank9447]

It's really interesting how your father has changed. A few days ago he had trouble looking directly at the camera. Today it seemed to me that it was the most normal thing in the world for him. Also, he's a fun guy. I like your videos with him!

[@Gardendreamsforme]

What joy your dad is. A true gentleman who raised a true blue son. Love these videos Ryan

[@delorisjones7729]

HI Ryan, praying for you Mom health, and don't let your Dad over do it since his heart attack. Look forward to your daily vlogs.

[@normamurray4450]

I absolutely love listening to your Dad and you chatting away...two smart, down to earth guys!!! Your Dad's humour, singing and you giving him "the look"...hilarious! So happy to hear the reverse pedal is working like a charm! That was a special treat seeing the huge planes do a fly over! I live near a small airport and we frequently have flyovers, but the planes aren't as big as what you had flying over your lake!

[@thierrymilan2039]

Yes big military French Airforce Airbus A400M ✈

[@amymcdonald8397]

Your dad looks great. He looks10 yrs younger since getting the stents and quitting smoke. Well done dad.

[@mmsmilenow]

How exciting was that?! To see those planes flyover was amazing! I admire your dad for persevering despite the many struggles. He is such a great example for you! Such a hardworking man and cheers to your mom for supporting him and sticking by his side. Love these videos Ryan! Thanks for sharing your dad with us. 🙏🏼😊🤗♥️

[@dianalewis8548]

Love you two Ryan. I was laughing so many times during this vlog. The goat is ok...try and film this creature and your Dad is so gentle with all things like that toad. Good sign of character. His lists are spot on from all his years in the business. Keep helping him and place will be ready for new season. What happened to Uncle Lee? Not nosey but feel like some family feud? Well my dear friend happy Fat Tuesday if you celebrate Mardi Gras. Take care.

[@patquinn2188]

Careful Ryan your dad`s taking over your channel. What a smashing family you have, love to your mum.

[@laelcampbell1935]

Your Dad is absolutely correct about number three - overspending. Sometimes it is difficult to figure out what expenditures will give you the best returns. There are some things that need to be done immediately but there are other things that are not essential and will not necessarily be the best investment for starting up the business.

[@KiwiBabz]

Those planes, Ryan. That was high drama. Another great video with your Dad. Interesting hearing his thoughts on struggles with new business. Applies wherever you are in the world. Good advice.

[@AnnieWarbux]

Those planes remind me of how our American President travels... with 3 decoy planes. He's been hoppin' about, making the rounds, so, maybe??!?

Ryan your Dad is a darling. A really down to earth man. Sending him a big hug.

[@kimrafferty7170]

With your Dad's health now a chipper is definitely needed so everything that isn't being kept for burning on the log fire can be chipped where it's cut and used to maintain the paths, it would take so much work and worry off of your Dad. Bless your Dad for being in the videos, it is lovely to see him and hear his wise words from experience in setting up a business in France, I hope he is feeling much better and I hope your mum is doing well as well xxx

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Yes, a chipper would be a God send for this dear gentleman. As large a one as you could afford and he could chip the prunings as he goes. That way there is not so much at one time. It would be great also if it could be directed to blow the chips directly in the cart> That would save handling it yet again.

[@donnamurdoch8949]

What a positive man your dad is, he's not going to slow down!

[@pamduff1432]

Oh my gosh your Dad is a star. He’s my favorite!! I may love watching him like I love watching Stephanie. Thanks for the true taste of France. ❤

[@margielynch7196]

Love your Dad, he is a joy to listen to!❤

[@me-l-9910]

Wonderful advice and energy from Glenn. I would say that "challenges" has a more positive spin to it than "struggles." Interesting that he said to buy new (sound advice) but his first instinct is to do what he can himself to keep his mower maintained. So there's a good balance there of cost saving and equipment maintenance. The man knows! Have you ever filmed a tour of the guest accommodation? That would be fun to see. Its a charming building. Glad to hear you spotted the billy goat. Cheers from the US!

[@susannepetersen7619]

I think your dad is actually enjoying his new status as a you tube star 🙂

I am in NZ, and we get flyovers from the airforce occasionally. It is training for contour flying below or without radar using the landscape as markers; we live on the side of an extinct volcano. Sage business advice, so thank you, Ryan's dad. You seem happier, Ryan, lovely smiles.

I explained it to my husband he was at work. He laughed at me and said, did you not know that we live by Fort Campbell? They do maneuvers. We also have Blackhawks chinooks and other things I know I always pray for them when they’re flying over as a reminder that they’re protecting us.
