@Reaperzx6 I don't know...I roll the film and say a few words, most folks watch and scroll on as brief entertainment, but, every once a while someone like urself takes issue, all I can say is thank you for watching and I hope ur day goes well!
@michaelbrunner6654 awww...then u know about the weeds...wind...and the possible big bass hiding down below :), thanks for watching Michael! I hope we can all keep Celina prestine for many generations to come :)
Probably be better if you minded your own business... Why is it the common thing to record random people and then try to publicly shaming them for living their life quietly... Lmao your a child dude. An actual Karen with a camera
tilting it to the side little worked too but at 90 degrees moving should be the similar concept. i practiced it lifting with the 16 ft fiberglass werner. at first i struggled to move my 28 ft hyperlite little giant ladder with the louiville stabilizer bar even with two people. need to build the muscle memory because the idea of balance ing the ladder did not come to my mind
@wagyu_killer hello, balance is everything, of course like u say building the muscles up help, I use balance in other things like loading and unloading my canoe, it takes skill moving a big ladder, I have practiced for about 4 decades :)...thanks for ur input !
@GroovyMisfit right off the top of my head no but there has to be a vinyl glue or weld on the market...maybe even gorilla glue gel would work...I hope u find a solution GroovyMisfit!
Awesome, I did the same thing, like a year ago, then seen your video just now and was like cool someone did the same thing I did but made a video, i watched the whole thing, wholesome video man 😊
@aaronajbird07 thank u Aaron! I get a lot of compliments on the custom grill, good for u thinking of this too! Sounds like u would be a natural candidate for a youtube channel, lots of hard work but fun too :)
@on_da_move very cool...always glad to help out, if there's a problem I run into camping I usually find a solution. Fall camping season is here...hallelujah:)
@davidcaro8217 not sure...could be a politician traveling around, pretty sure they stopped to switch drivers of an in bus bathroom break...then away they went
@EmbreySkates awww...very cool! How would I recognize u in the video? That was a great day...cool community of skaters & bikers(is that what they call the folks riding bikes?)
@EmbreySkates yea...I remember u, u were hanging out with a good friend of urs, thank u and ur buddy for being in the video...that's a cool place to skate :)
@SickBuckNaStY 🤣🤣🤣...I hear ya :) , that's lake superior by 12 mile campground, I have never seen anyone bank fish there, almost never even a boat go by, but I do go in fall when Miss Superior can really dance when she wants to, most know to be extremely careful that time of year, I like ur attitude toward fishing, going to try and go myself maybe tomorrow here in southern indiana :)
Mmmm, microwave and rehydrated. Meal of champions there..... No offense, but even for truckers, at their price point (Denny's) there are many other healthier options and places to eat at. All these places are good for is finding you after your truck has been sitting at one location days longer than it was allowed.
@shadowdemon13 u sound like u r speaking from experience, I agree Dennys is not super healthy but I'm thinking there r healthy choices on the menu, being a trucker can't be easy...I see a lot of drivers just walking around alone...eating alone, probably sleeping alone on the road, thank u shadowdemon for ur insights
@chrisfinnegan8370 this one is highway 41 and I-64, I'll sit and film there sometimes, the blue beacon truckwash bring in a lot of trucks...have a good day Chris!
A Great Fishing Adventure Brother!! Lawrence you have Great Content ! Your canoe is Choice!!! I took your advice and made my 1st short for my channel JAYSTRAYS! I appreciate your helpful tips on creating videos. Cheers Brother Happy Fishing!!!
@JAYSTRAYS hi Jay! I have always felt like this channel is some thing I was meant to do, as u know, super hard work(coming up on 4 years for me) but a total investment in the future, and not just near future, imagine ur videos(films)around 50 years from now playing...digital time capsules for future generations :) I discovered on this YT path that I'm a storyteller...some folks say "Mr. Lawrence...get to the point on ur videos!" But...in reality, they r missing the point. I believe the wave of the platform is going back to(maybe never left) long form videos being watched on 85" TVs. Still...that's the "meat" so to say...the gravy are shorts! I can shoot dozens per day...usually upload about 6 per day through out the day...now thats work and that's channel growth, back to the point about being a storyteller...I take folks on the journey, when some one writes about how they felt like they were along for the ride...I think "all right!"...mission accomplished:)
@LoveField_1111 I'm glade to help out! I hope ur travels are a safe one and once back home remember it's just a temp fix...some times life work out right :)
Well done, Mr. L! I bet your arm was a little tired n sore that night. I tell ya what, if we had a world full of people who cared about the small things in life I bet the big things would pretty much take care of themselves. Would love to meet you someday, sir. My wife's family is from southern Indiana but over in the Muncie area.
@TommyFlanagan666 hello Tommy, I'm betting u r right about folks pitching in to help others, 12 mile beach campground is my all time spot to be, I think Muncie is a nice community, I'm way down on the very southern tip across the river from Henderson ky, maybe we will meet someday...that would be cool :) as always I appreciate u dropping in Sir!
Looks like a great float, that I've wanted do for years. I mostly do Ozark rivers...Mild 1-2 spring fed rivers, like the 11 point, North Fork of The White, Current, Niangua. Rain Bows and Small Mouth fishing is great on those rivers. TY for the video
@blackjackmusic1107 hello...yea, u can't beat the Ozarks for some of the very best rivers to paddle, l've been down the 11 point, Jack's fork, Current river...also the last 27 miles of the Buffalo river(a tad further south), I appreciate you dropping in, u are no doubt an experienced wilderness paddler, I'm betting the Current will be full in certain sections this weekend...me and my kids use to call them "body jambs" :)
@@laffilmfest3759Ya. about the Current. Due to party goers during warm weather months, I haven't floated it in years. Used to live just up steam of Bennet Springs S. Park on the Niangua. Great small mouth fishing right out side my front door. Also, I still can't figure why the Mo. Dept. of Conservation paid me to raise rain bows at the hatchery at Bennet. I'da done that for free
@Cullins-at.thebarn hello Mark and thank you Sir! Lonnie the camphost at indian-Celina Lake rec area thought those might be rock bass, he didn't see a photo but I described them to him...I'm not sure, enjoy ur labor day weekend!
Good Stuff Lawrence!! I appreciate the tips on securing your boat getting to and from the put in! You have a Solid setup with your boats and jeep rig, my close friend has a liberty, awesome jeeps!! Very scenic, loved the Overlook restaurant! Great idea to paddle, I look forward to your next video! Cheers Brother
@JAYSTRAYS thank u Jay, I hope u have a great labor day weekend and get to film some things, I'm staying close to home but will go by the super hub truckstop not far away, I'll film 100 youtube shorts :) folks love to see what's happening in ur neck of the woods...cool brother!
One of my favorite places in the Yoop. Quite a nice little museum, eh? I wrote a paper on the Fitz in college. Then for my senior thesis I wrote 30 pages detailing the 1913 storm. That was an incredible weather event! 🥶💨💨
@TommyFlanagan666 u r a person of history for sure, yes...I was really taken back by this museum, a must see for anyone traveling north, spooky thing was the continuous slide show of the Fitzgerald crew...fancinating!
I wish that were try for here in athens tn everytime we put one up for my sister the road workers tear it down it breaks my heart. But I hope Mike rest in peace it sounds like you guys had a wonderful friendship I'm sorry for your lose my friend.
@ashleyhicks6164 thank you Ashley and the same for ur loss too, loosing a sister would be tough! I'm really surprised Athens won't allow this, I travel the country and see crosses everywhere! Maybe approach city council with the idea...call the news media there to present the question publicly, maybe ur sister can have her memorial after all, I did find u have to strategically place the cross out of the mowers path...then maintain the sight at least for awhile, it's pretty cool to know the world in a small way knows of Mike :)...enjoy ur day :)
Perfect lyric to share from Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Even with radar and all sorts of modern weather forecasting gadgets, Lady Superior will have her say. Makes me wonder what the bay at Grand Marais looks like right now during this particular blow. Not friendly I imagine. Great footage here and I'm glad you're safe, Lawrence. What an experience, eh! EDIT: Have read about the 1940 Armistice Day storm? Or even more fierce was the big storm of 1913. It hit every Great Lake over the course of three days. White Hurricane is an excellent book for a good survey of what happened. Wicked, wicked storm in which around 200 sailors lost their lives.
@TommyFlanagan666 i'll have to check the book out! Lake Superior amazes me and scares me. Just an unbelievably force of nature and power, I have never meet a Yooper that did not respect Her fury! The tragic end to Chad and Trevor on Grand Marias' breakwall has never left my mind, thanks Tommy for all ur great insight!
I cut my teeth learning to fish for smallmouth on blue river from Fredericksburg all the way down to the Ohio River. Spent a lot of summer days as a kid wading the riffles with my dad. I wish the smallie fishing was still as good as it used to be.
@so.inoutdoors hello! I have paddled from mill town to the ohio...that's a long ways :), so were those rock bass I was catching? O wait...I'm getting to release that video tomorrow, I figured for sure u would know, putting in at blue chapel and paddling up stream is nice because rarely would u ever see anybody up there, on a different note...how's the fishing at patoka lake? Been catching any thing there? Thanks for dropping by! I'll swing by ur channel later to get caught up :)
I remember one year driving M-58 when we had a motor mount break on our '93 Sable. We made it back--gingerly--to a local mechanic in Wetmore, just east of Munising, and he had her fixed up the very next day. Try getting that kind of service here in our hometown of Grand Rapids, MI. It won't happen. I sure do miss living up there. ❤
@TommyFlanagan666 great story! I have met only friendly good folks in the UP, but I travel enough to know when u arrive in an area u show the locals the respect they deserve, I saw one of the coolest fireworks display ever in grand rapids down town over 3 decades ago on the 4th, haven't spent much time there but it seems like a nice place to live, yea...taking the curves on H-58 in '93 sable would make a terrific video for sure :)
@TommyFlanagan666 i really apprciate that Tommy especially since u lived in the area, I always try to show respect and capture the pure beauty of such a gorgeous place on earth :)
Man, your video deserves waaayyy more than 5 likes. Do you suppose people just don't know about our wonderful Yoop here in Michigan? My wife and I go every chance we get. We lived in Escanaba/Gladstone area for about four years for my job and we really miss it. Thank you for posting your trip vid, very interesting and well done!
@TommyFlanagan666 thank you so much Tommy! RU-vid platform is a strange place where millions of videos hit every day, so hard to say why it hasn't been viewed more times, I agree about the beauty of the UP...one of the true treasures on this planet!
@Tbarber118 that's a good point to be made, if one feel secure enough there are a ton of places to boondock for free..but u r getting close to the wild wild west days with that, thanks Talon...I appreciate ur insight!
Great video Mr. Lawrence! My old stomping grounds. When I was a teenager my friends and I would jump off of that old iron bridge into the river whenever it was deep enough. Brings back memories of days gone by. I wouldn’t think of doing that today. Another Bald Eagle sighting. So majestic!
@Cullins-at.thebarn that's a long jump for sure, I imagine the bridge has a few stories to tell :), when the pandemic hit in 2020 it forced me off the road trips and to be closer to home(not to mention gas prices), in doing so I realized I didn't have to drive a thousand miles to come up with a good video, since then I feel like an unofficial ambassador to Southern Indiana...we live in a very beautiful part of this great country :)...thanks Mark!
