WINTER PREPARATIONS AT THE CABIN AND A Devastating Beaver Dam Collapse // EFRT S8 EP41

[@kayengland3240]

Carol, every mama’s heart was breaking with your heart when your daughter had to leave. Thank you for sharing your precious moments with us.

[@PJEC]

So refreshing to see real men, teaching the young to be real men, love seeing there are still Strong family values here. Those smash burgers look 👌🏽 Are there 10 brothers? Wow

[@68mustangman]

Carol’s face said it all as a parent of a daughter. ❤

[@68mustangman]

EFRT is the best outdoor ASMR channel on You Tube. 🇨🇦

[@EFRT]

Thank you, so glad you’re enjoying the channel.

[@helenemulvihill2997]

Oh Carol! My whole heart goes out to you when I see Caroline leaving :-( Just remember, being "close" has nothing to do with proximity! hugggs xoxo

[@bobhewlett3633]

Didn’t look closely at the thumbnail, but the introduction music and drone footage had a Caroline vibe, so I wondered if she was back. Caroline, you have been missed. Cool episode.

[@sheldonteves2995]

That young lady is absolutely beautiful. I enjoy watching your family. You guys are great !

[@kristenleblond5047]

Your Caroline is such a beautiful young lady. Carol, my heart broke for you when you saw Caroline leaving once again. I miss my daughter every day and am so grateful when I get to spend time with her. Even if it is only for a day.

[@Sushi2735]

Very special video of the family all working together to put the island asleep for the Winter! I also must compliment you on one handsome group of brothers and nephews! Good genes!

[@dedwin8930]

Mom and daughter saying goodbye brought a tear to my eye. 💕

[@MegaRetr]

Best Wishes on your Winter Adventures

[@hugeblue]

THIS is what Family is all about! What a beautiful family!

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

great video, your daughter has sure become a beautiful woman.

[@EFRT]

Thank you!

[@Perry3377]

Pete Sr and Carol, Job well done on raising three well grounded children who are now well grounded adults. Watching Carol saying good bye to Caroline was very touching and brought back memories of saying good bye to our Son. Thanks for sharing and remember It's never good bye but we will see you soon, either down the road or in the sky, when we share a common Faith and a deep hearted Love. Safe Travels, Perry

[@Sushi2735]

I was visiting a friend In Northern Alabama with a cabin in the foothills when I spotted it. Wild giant garlic was growing in the clay/sandy soil. We risked life and limb, due to Copperheads and harvested enough for two big braid if garlic. It was so good and almost sweet. Lasted me close to a year! Good luck with yours. Such fun! “Garlic goes in everything but Lemmon pie”, per my mother 💕

[@KAStodgell]

I have a wonderful daughter. Hard watching them grow up.

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Epic Family Road Trip. It's so sad to see Caroline leaving and not coming along with the rest of the family for another epic adventure. Pete I remember watching a old episode of y'all's where y'all were parked up in the city and all y'all's bikes got stolen from the back of Vambi did y'all ever get them back?

[@davidmcgregor4691]

My son and I absolutely loved meeting you and your wife in the parking lot the other day. My son still talks about it. We were driving on Friday to a swim meet out of town, and saw you guys at a stop....wanted to stop again and say hi.....but we were on a mission to get to our location in the Sault. Thank you for the family friendly video's you put out. Noah loves them. Keep up the great work.

[@EFRT]

It was wonderful to meet you and Noah as well. Make sure you tell him we said hi. We are so glad that you do your family. Enjoy our channel. I’m sure we’ll bump in to you again when we’re back in town.

[@janet33465]

Lando is keeping all the huuuuumons in sight nobody allowed to leave him 🐕 ❤ he is going to be so happy when he realises he’s going with 😊…. Carol I felt your tears when you said goodbye to your daughter sure is bitter sweet ❤

[@Lindsy041]

This is what it's about with families sticking together

[@wojohowitz5432]

thank you for the reminder that Humanity in alignment with Nature, will Always be the best combination moving forward. Blessings to the Van Stralen clan.

[@michaelgiles7844]

The best part of your videos is seeing the love that your family has for one another.

[@jim20101]

Great to see the family all back together and the other family members able to join you God Bless

[@Nancy-m3o5p]

[@EFRT]

[@CampingRuss]

It was so nice to see you Caroline back at the cabin and all the family and relatives. Looks like it’s gonna be a fun adventure. It’s pretty wild about the beaver Dam I also planted all my onions and garlic this time of year. Have a great adventure guys be safe 😊😊 ok 👌🏼🔥🤠🔥Camping Russ out

[@nancywilliams3607]

Always love watching and being apart of the family. The scenery is gorgeous ❤❤❤❤❤

[@nelitaacaso4439]

wow when caroline leave my tears fell i saw carol mama the emotion being a mother when grown kids have there own things to do for future happy but we miss them

[@QuietCottage]

Aahhh ...such a lovely video. I have so many thoughts today. As the large group arrived on the island I was so happy. I saw the love and devotion all these individuals have for each other. It does my heart so much good. Caroline & Carol working together reminds me of the old days at my sister's ranch. Then all the work commenced with those strong, long-legged men digging in to add helpful hands. All those young ones learn the skills they will need in future years as they become the heads of the family. I also felt so much sadness & gratitude when those boats left the shore and headed back to the marina & their lives off the island. I remember those emotions too. I hated to leave the ranch to go back to the city where I earned a living for the present & future. I wish all of you happy wandering down south in the warmth for this winter.

[@nelitaacaso4439]

wow iam glad to see your brothers

[@jkandkiminthecamper]

Aww..always so sad to watch you say goodbye to the kids. 😢 can’t wait to see the new adventures! We are working our way to CA and are in the SW for a few nights…which direction are you going?

[@ryoung6725]

Not just mama's heart breaken seeing the two say goodbye, I saw that through the eyes of my wife, and I cried too.

[@logogonzalez6083]

Hermoso video y Hermosa Familia that's place is Beautiful paradise mis Herman's mil bendiciones ❤🙏🙌

[@rhondadean5455]

I see great resemblance in these first cousins. Ten brothers. God blessed your mother and you boys. Beautiful family.

[@mikemecklenborg5412]

Hi Caroline. Glad to see you are doing well. Miss your narration of the EFRT videos. Men it's all good and well now while you are young carrying the wood but keeping that up will someday it will lead to back problems. I know I grew up splitting wood to heat our homestead back in Ohio but now it's back problems on and off. Excellent video guys!!!!

[@sar4x474]

Doesn’t get much better than an early Sunday morning, a cup of joe, and a wonderful episode of EFRT.

[@geroldknoebel3836]

Oh yeah, I hear you guys. You do everything possible for the children. I was no different and success counts, especially in this day and age. All right, what you do for the children and the family. Greetings from Frankfurt.

[@metroplexchl]

Praying for all involved.

[@doughill2211]

Caroline with the Hat and Westen belt buckle looks like you could be back in Colorado (my home) , Lando looked so sad when all left in the boat, nice 2 see the big Family working together, tks for another great Video! 😃🦮

[@Julie-g3u]

Your faces are LIGHTING UP WHEN YOU ARE IN THE R.V. Thank-you for the drone footage on the opening shot it was fabulous. A Question, does all of Pete's family come over & STAY. DO you have a enough room for all of you. You have a great trip & see you next week.NZ.❤❤

[@cliffrockadventures]

Terrific episode. Darn, y'all had us choked up as you said goodbye to Caroline...we know the feeling.

[@michelledam2324]

Lovely family get together! Good times ! Hate goodbyes😢

[@izzybooth-nuku7137]

Wow that’s a lot of water damage, it’s gonna be a lot of work for them to repair. Hope all will work out in the end. It’s awesome to see family, friends and Caroline, nawww Lando so excited❤❤. Hard to see your kids leave but precious moments when they come back home again😊😊😊. Excited to see the adventures you share with us, take care and stay safe and big loves from your kiwiNZfamz🇳🇿❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@richardthomas1743]

Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to Epic Family! 👍

[@vernareed2692]

Your island cabin and property is just Heaven! So beautiful,comfy,rustic!! Would be wonderful! And the family get together would be so fun, and the food looks awesome!! You're so blessed! Of course takes a lot of hard work, and cooperation!

[@Lisa_B.-1989]

Such a special episode! Thank you!

[@budiharyono5179]

terus semangat buat keluarga EPIC, semoga bisa datang ke indonesia 👍☺

[@tree4408]

Very nice to meet brothers and all. Good to see Caroline! Again nice relaxing video. God bless on new trip!

I love these cabin videos. So cozy! And Caroline has the most darling dimples!

[@stevestott3652]

Always love how you all are so great of a family, the love shows threw every one of you . That to me is the best of life . And as always another spectacular video . Cheers to Landos 🐕:) whole family :) :) :) :) :) From Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. 😁👍🏼.

[@karinhusas1370]

[@jmarkley767]

Best Wishes on your Winter Adventures!! Can’t wait to see where you go! 🏜️⛰️🌉🏔️🏖️🛣️🏞️🌅

[@jdem.]

Yey Carol is back🎉❤

[@EFRT]

❤️

[@irvineyoung4545]

From what I have heard in B.C. when you plant garlic cloves like that, all you get is flowers and seed. the seed is needed to grow garlic.

[@NorthernRetreat]

Definitely feels like an end of season video. There are over half a dozen beaver dams on our boreal property that frequently burst, adding to the ebb and flow of the boreal forest and its uniqueness.

[@wobdeehomestead]

What about your lithium solar batteries? Is there enough heat in that shed to keep them from freezing?

[@debbiebeckstead9268]

Crying 😢 my eyes out when Caroline left 😞

[@JimBurwellsPetiquetteHouston]

absolutely awesome, beautiful opening to your video-stunning shots of your island home.

[@pnwusa]

it was great seeing caroline. my heart was breaking for you guys as ye said goodbye to her. bummer about the marina. that is some crazy damage. enjoy this next chapter. continued travel mercies and blessings.🕊

[@GallabrigoOnTheGo]

Great to have family and friends helping out … how many cabins are there on the island? Your island is beautiful.. would love to see a tour of the island and the cabins :)

[@EFRT]

There’s 10, plus a big bunk room above the boathouse house. We will do an island tour in a future episode. 👍🏻

[@nickbristol3457]

Absolutely wonderful to watch! So much feeling in this video. Take care all.

[@maramirkin3325]

The beauty of your large family is moving!

[@toomanydogs2]

Great to see Caroline!!❤

[@PaulineAdcock-py7uy]

Loved seeing the family come together to winterize the island. What a beautiful family & home you have! Looking forward to your new adventures.

[@roaming4adventure-nt8yz]

Good morning EFRT! ☕️ Looks like lots of work getting things buttoned up for winter. Lots of help with fire wood. 👍 Very beautiful place. Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@derekw.9878]

This might be the first time I’ve heard Pete and Caroline sing together!

[@catherinelittlefield9483]

Many hands make lite work

[@kristenleblond5047]

Looking forward to the next adventure!!!

[@gsicord]

Awesome photography…..beautiful!👏

[@AmandaSell-t7q]

I really enjoyed this episode. Watching your family come together to just get the work done and enjoy each other’s company is so beautiful.

[@sodobson]

what a lesson of family your channel is.. thanks so much.

[@-Damawand-]

Short life, big world. You have to live as long as you can.

[@bettymagana4166]

G’Morning to u all can’t wait to see more beautiful pictures of the places that u will be going! God keep u all safe and have a epic family adventure 💕☺️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@oldmanoldtruck]

What a wonderful video! So much packed into 35 minutes, wow! We're very excited to see what's next. Safe travels!

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Im new . Where is your cabin? Im assuming somewhere in canada, but that’s a big country…. Lol so pretty! I use to live year round on an island, cumberland island, Ga. No bridges, stores, no conveniences. Everything had to be barged or by our boat . I miss it dearly. It was a life estate for my husbands life. Back when it was made a national park, through eminent domain. Anyway- islands are very special places. So are its inhabitants.

[@wayneC7]

Gosh all your videos are so relaxing.

[@annettec8555]

Exquisite serene video at beginning. Beautiful.

[@ronniehayes2396]

What missions is Caroline doing, if you are allowed to say? If you get back to Oklahoma, please let me know love to meet up again

[@paulwall5706]

Yes Winter ❄️🥶 is coming Early this yr

[@aleshiasterland460]

Wonderful videos. Blessings for you winter journey!!! Helena Montana

[@kearnsey64]

Awesome video guys! Thanks!❤❤❤

[@onasledoverland]

Such a wonderful job on your videos. Better and better. Hard to watch this one..... as my family has gotten quite small, .... but the video and your family are so beautiful. ❤❤❤ Assuming Baja is destination. 😊

[@nelitaacaso4439]

hello epic. family road trip i am always waiting for your new videos and while waiting iam watching also your previous videos ❤❤❤

[@EFRT]

We love having you along with us. 😊

[@jimanderson8002]

Great video. Nice seeing all the family, pitching in to close up the lake. Lovely Caroline, good finally seeing you again, missed your slant on everything. Looking forward to new adventures. Thank you! Peace!

[@bay9876]

And everybody moved to Florida. No snow but hot and humid summers. The air conditioner belt.

[@jennifermagee9131]

Do you compost food scraps for your garden?

[@EFRT]

Yes we do. There should be some great compost to spread in the gardens spring.

[@barryraven4745]

I bought one of those Fiskar Mauls after watching Dan's video. It cuts through wood like a hot knife through butter. And wow, a lot of Y chromosomes in your family Pete. Poor Caroline! One last thing, put some backups to those rubber straps on that Yakima bike rack. My bike fell off on a busy highway in Dallas once. Bungee cord or something like that. I finally switched to a 1Up rack. Great video as usual.

[@ScubaNut22]

Great content. Can you provide any more details on the winter plans down South? Thank you.

[@ELmerC-ms4cg]

Look at all that fishin😂

[@ELmerC-ms4cg]

Top water Sarah spook. Guaranteed to catch the big one

[@MohamedMohamed-kq8lt]

Thank you for the beautiful video and the wonderful photography. Thank you for the translation. But the Arabic language did not add it in the translation😀😀😀😀 Greetings to you from Morocco🥰🥰🥰

[@Caareenkm6726]

Could you tell me the song you played at the very beginning of your video called PEACE a few days ago.. thanks 🙂🇨🇦 I asked in the PEACE video but maybe you didn’t see my comment 🙂

[@jeanethcaballero1649]

Where is Caroline off to?

[@EFRT]

She’s doing a year of service with our church.

[@yorukkizigeziyor]

Beautiful place 😍🌴

[@canajian]

Good mornin 🖐😎👍

[@EFRT]

Good morning! 😃

[@mzkatbee463]

Aloha from Utah!

[@PMZPatriot]

Sorry I've been out of the loop. Is Caroline going somewhere?

[@TheTWISTmyGears]

Caroline looks just like Shania Twain

[@sprucelane1271]

7:27 mins and #8 commercial.

[@mobileplayers5008]

Looks like an island surrounding by trees only boats can enter.

[@ELmerC-ms4cg]

Also keeps them pesky vampires away 😮
