Follow the Lankford's on their outdoor adventures and family excursions! We love to experience God's great creation, check out our adventures or join us on our next one! Our newest challenge has been renovating our 1850’s farmhouse and outbuildings in South Central PA. It’s a never ending job, but we’re up for the task!
Great technique. I did laugh when she said, “I didn’t dig mine out. I just pulled the rope.” The most contradictory thing you could say after encouraging this technique lol
I use a dollar store plastic auger anchor for my 6' umbrella, first digging a hole and filling it with water and sand after screwing the auger into the bottom. As a backup in high winds I use parachute cord tied to the ribs with the other end tied to the umbrella bag filled with sand, with 4 half hitches on one side and a taut line hitch on the other.
Did you use coosa? Been following your build. I have a grady 206 g im gunna be doin makeover b4 strapers roll in hudson in 2 months. Im in newburgh ny shouldnt be to far from you. I been following your build series all day lookin forward to see how you make out in the end
I used marine plywood. I did a bad job of continuing to document my project. I finished in 2020 and the boat has been used for fishing, family trips and weekend camping since I completed it.
@herecomethelankfords1596 damnnnnnm i just google mapped it that looks like a massive river dragon lmaooo wow. Can i sleep in my boat on that lake . Like anchor somewhere for the night?
@@herecomethelankfords1596 Thanks. Just ordered the stakes. Our favourite beach is quite breezy. I’ve seen at least one other canopy fly down the beach and hoping to avoid that.
The size difference is definitely noticeable. I think the perfect cooler would be the size of the 65 and the weight of the 52. If they made a lightweight 65 I would sell my original 65 in a heartbeat.
@@herecomethelankfords1596 That kinda answers my question then. I've been going back and forth which one to get. The weight...while lighter is always better, isn't that big of a deal. I can have 2 people carry it. Cant do anything about it being too small.
4 5 gallon buckets work well. The water is right there so just fill them up when you get there and dump them when you leave. They’re really light easy to carry and no digging
I bet that really holds it down. With all the other stuff I have to lug to the beach, 4 5 gallon buckets seems a but excessive for me but glad it works for you!
Lol I do the same thing essential but with my slippers at the beach. Dig a whole a foot down. Tie off my slipper with the guideline on the tent and bury it.
I thought about buying 2 of these vs getting one 65. That would give me 104q between the 2 vs one yeti at a higher cost. No matter what ill go with rtic over yeti. Just can't see myself paying 375$ for a yeti 65.
@@herecomethelankfords1596 Ever see the coolers called Hooked? Alot like yeti and rtic. But some more features like small wheels and bottle openers. Price sits in between yeti and rtic looks like. Folks say they are good coolers.
@@herecomethelankfords1596 Update on the Hooked coolers. They look nice and all, love the bottle openers but the price is much like yeti. Not as bad but really close. Ritc is still number 1 in my book because of that. But to all who don't care about price, Hooked looks like a high performance cooker indeed.
We planted two Oak trees in front of the house to get some shade...they grew 15 feet their first year and then 2 to 3 feet every year after. I kept the lower limbs trimmed back, but that was it.
I have thrown a few spot down there occasionally when I take the time to catch some. Haven't had a tremendous amount of success but I also haven't given it much time.
I bought some Beer Pong buckets from 5 Below. I drilled a hole an inch from the top of the buckets so the canopy ropes can be tied onto. i filled each bucket with sand and added water. The wind was no problem.
"This house came with a sweet boat." Love it. What a great project. My wife and I purchased an old farm in 2002. It was built in 1841. I couldn't justify salvaging the barn as the previous owners let it decay (roof leaked and took out two of the corners). We spent 4 years of our lives making it our home. 4 years of life and money. LOL! You have some great things to work with here....lots of "projects" to keep you busy!
I guess I will have to keep your contact, you never know when you will need someone with experience that knows how to build a nice pole building in case something happens to the barn. :)
