Backroads are ALWAYS better than the highway lol. Glad you're keeping the name. It would not be the same without you saying, "and yes... I am John"!

Hello again John and Aurora! I think it's a great idea! Haven't heard of anyone doing that either! That creek is beautiful! Alaska is beautiful!

I love your idea about doing a video to respond to comments! I also enjoyed the ride around with you to get water on KZfaq! I love seeing all the nature around Alaska too ❤

Glad you are keeping the channels name.i like to hear you say "and yes I am John.as far as the comments go its works for me either way.Roxy is fighting the cancer like a champ but it's getting close to her brain now.all prayers appreciated. Be safe out there.Roxy sends tail ways to you n Aurora. 🙏♥️🐕

A video reply sounds cool 😎 I think the flowers around your cabin would be very nice. Have a great rest of the week John. Looking forward to your next video. God bless

Looks refreshing. Remnants of Beryl just passed us (northern Indiana) and The St Joe River is running high and fast. 3.5 inches of rain last night.

This is an adventure. To be continued 😂😂😂

Sounds like a good idea John 💡

Hi John, I like the idea of having a conversational reply to our comments. Eva Zu Beck does that with her channel, she does it occasionally. Oh, by the way be cautious of transplanting those large tall white topped flowers, they are poisonous and will give your skin a severe reaction worse than poison ivy. They are called cow parsnip, and I am sure I saw them before the creek. I would identify the flowers before digging. Go to the forest ranger, or agriculture dept. office to get identification of plants. Most phones have an app. To ID. one is plant ID. Just take a pic and it tells you what it is. Take care

Ty you John

I think a video of you replying to comments would be (interesting and) worth a test run! Man, that chopping wood and carrying water is keeping you young! 😉👍😎🇨🇦

Hi John, I finally got my phone service changed so I can watch videos again now that I am Alaska. I pulled water from Willow Creek as well today so I could water my flowers. Thinking about getting a good filtration system so I can drink the water as well. Hope you have a great day.

The video response is a good idea John! It’s more personal!dave🇬🇧🇬🇧

That was brilliant & so was the four splitter ty

John, those smaller jugs are easier to handle i see... Way up there past the falls should be good drinking water... BigT

Beautiful area, water is life and thankful for it, but also can't help thinking of fishing when I see it flowing.

Hello John in Alaska how are you doing today Willow creek is that drinking water or do you have to boil it first I thought Newmans gas station would be faster.. And yes if you feel better doing this reading comments like that try it out maybe you will like it John ( p.s. I can’t get enough of the video you recorded at the farmers market. It was a good one I loved when you said something about the goats milk I watched it 8 times now… have a great weekend coming up here from Ontario Canada I hope you do another video on the farmers market one day again

Glad you are not changing your name. And so glad you decided against the dating site. So many bad things heard about them.

Hey John a little 12 volt bilge pump would be cats ass for that job lol.

Hi John go ahead and give it a go on the video Comments. Glade your keeping the name.

Hey John, good to hear you arr keeping your channel name the same. Give the video response a try, it will be interesting 😉 😊

Oh WOW!! the River is flowing rapidly!! It LOOKS so refreshing!! Do you use the water you are collecting for Drinking or Bathing?? IF there was a dead Bear in the water up stream; would that make the water UNFIT to drink?? How do you know if the water is not polluted with a dead animal or animal excrement?? DO you have a way to TEST the Water you are collecting??

Loved the trip to collect water…do you not catch rain water in tanks , I used to live on the land and that’s what we did…hello from Oz😊

I think it is a wonderful idea. Very creative.

HI John in Alaska; at Hatcher Pass : ) I LUV your Drive Along videos !! The Flowers are Lovely!! I Hope you can meet a compatible Woman for Love & Companionship! There must be the right person out there and you just haven't met them yet. I agree with you that Dating Sites are a suspicious MINE FIELD of Scammers. We can't be too careful! You are doing Great Stuff!! HAPPY DAY to You : )

ok sounds good

My comments usually don’t warrant a reply. Sort of my thoughts at the moment, lol. 😊

Dating sites are terrible. I'd rather be alone then date the ones I've seen or talked to. I'm sure John you will find a girlfriend as u seem to be one of the good ones . I know if I lived up there I'd be flirting 😂❤

Hello ☺️…I’m playing catch up again on watching videos. Been so busy lay:)

haven't heard from you in awhile. Figured you went hunting

Lost my comment in switch over, lol. Wasn’t that important a comment. 🤣🤣

How long will that amount of water last you?

How often do you have to fetch water and how long does it take John!? Dave 🇬🇧🇬🇧

Sounds like replying to comments in a video is a good idea

Whatever you do with the channel, it'll work out for you. Just don't walk around in a thong. As for the water, I know that water is pretty clean but hope you don't get beaver fever or anything else.
