Weird, I don't know what I was saying there. I think I might have actually said "Whitefish is in a cold place" because I immediately say that it isn't always blue skies and golden sunshine afterwards. Or maybe I was just tripping over my tongue?

Oh yeah listened again pretty sure it is "Whitefish is in a cold place", which is kind of a strange thing to say. "Whitefish is a cold place" makes a lot more sense.

Citown?

Although it turns out that I wasn't born in that building---I was born in the birthing clinic when it was in another location. And the new library sounds nice! :)

I wonder if the ducks and geese get along.

Its between our house and the mailboxes.

I hope it was also nice, and not just surreal!

@glowingfish it really was nice to see but I say surreal because I haven't been or seen the house in 8 years

@@luciakowala9254 Well, it sounds like there is an interesting story there! I had actually been away for four years before I came back this time. And I was away for five years before that.

@glowingfish oh way that's cool I lived there from 3 to 11 years old then moved I was not happy lol but I'd love to come back I miss it soo much

​@@luciakowala9254I like parts of living here but other parts not so much. If you watch my other videos, you can see I travel a lot...

They can swim quite well! I was surprised to see this one was totally submerged, though.

I just looked it up and apparently a prospecting party had a horse drown in the creek. But there might be another reason.

@@glowingfish what a name 😂

@@ang3lchg05 Well, it is better than a lot of the names here, which are things like "Rock Creek". So this is at least original!

That makes sense! That was why your birthday was this week!

​@glowingfish, I like it, too!!!

Glad you liked it. I also have longer videos about Mount Vernon and Bellingham.

I am glad you liked it---I decided I would try a video essay. In part because July has been so hot I really haven't gone anywhere.

@glowingfish I agree, it is so hot 🔥.

Its nice to look at, a little harder to live with...especially if it gets worse.

@@glowingfish It was real bad during the Bass Ck Fire of '09.

@@michaelwaller7365 I was here in 2009, but I don't specifically remember that being a bad fire year. I remember 2011 being terrible. That is one reason I make videos now, I want to have a record, it is weird how things like that can slip right out of our mind.

@@glowingfish You may be correct about the year. We have so many fires, it's difficult to keep track.

How was working at K-Mart?

@@glowingfish Not bad. I did overnight stocking, so no customers😁. Check out the movie, it's hilarious.

This Fortuna video was pretty popular, and I didn't even get to show a lot of good things about the city.

Like me!

I have videos of them making those calls too!

Next time I'm back in Costa Rica I'll have a lot more to see!

And eating at the same time! :)

Thank you! :)

What did I say wrong specifically?

Snow!

I liked it! I have a McMinnville video.

I actually don't remember...seeing...See's when I was there, but maybe I just didn't notice it?

Maybe not a bad thing, since they were too close to the road.

@@glowingfish I was just kind of making that comment because it’s normally human that are scared of snakes. At least that’s the myth but I think that most the time they are actually more scared of us.

I actually made two videos of my cat! One a short, one a normal video. Just in the past two weeks.

Yep this was two weeks ago.

Glad you liked it, I have a lot of other videos of nearby biking and hiking, as well.

LOL when you said you smelled weed - that was also common. As was, at the time, people shooting heroin in parks (at benches in public!) and they were using more bike patrol cops at the time... I think I lived there at a strange time.

I remember that community garden! WOW! 25 years ago when I rode my bike there last (my brother still has that bike, a 30 year old TREK mt bike made in USA)

I am glad the video brought up good memories. I actually feel bad sometimes that with all the things I can capture in my videos, smells aren't one of them. There is that dry late summer smell in the Pacific Northwest, maybe with the smell of those huge blackberries wafting in the air...whenever I go back, it just takes me back.

Strange thing about heroin, or other hard drugs---I don't think I am naive, and I travel a lot, but I've never seen someone injecting drugs in public. There is a lot of talk about the prevalence of drug abuse in Oregon right now, (and in the past), but I haven't noticed it as being everpresent.

Coincidentally, I first saw one at Luckiamute Landing, which I believe is also the first video of mine you saw.

@@glowingfish I believe you are right

Thank you very much for watching and commenting! One reason I do so many videos like this, is that even though it might seem like a lot of detail for the general viewer, sometimes I get to capture something that was very important to someone, or also something that is historically/environmentally important. Also, if you like trains, I have many train videos---not model, but trains I've ridden, in the United States and Costa Rica. I also have a lot of videos in and around Corvallis. As you have probably seen---in fact, I saw a comment that you made about the Adair Village video, but now I can't find it?

@@glowingfish yup I did, Adair village has a ton of memories for me as well. I’ll be subscribing for sure! I watched your Avery park video, that train!!! So cool. I’m old enough to remember (I was very very young) real hippies playing frisbee in those open areas of Avery park. In the 70s my mom was part of the rose garden ladies and those trees were tiny back then lol. Avery used to be a huge hub for OSU and for parents / kids, in the early 80s that started changing from its glory days. The whale bones (you didn’t show them) was where we kids learned to climb AND hit the ground hard. Those industrial buildings weren’t there, it was all field and you could see 99 from Avery on the 99w side of the park. Anyways, a ton of memories from there, it’s neat to see it. Last time I was there was in 17 for the eclipse. We moved from Corvallis in summer 84. I went to college in Springfield after I returned from the navy and lived in Springfield and Eugene for a few years before moving away from Oregon. I have strong roots in oregon and Washington.. oh.. btw.. it’s not THE puget sound… just “puget sound” lol :) Want a fun video trip? Eastern oregon - skeleton cave… my father and I in 1977 went to the back of that cave, and in a whim my father figured there was an exit.. we made the exit to skeleton cave. But, he covered it back up… I’ve heard someone dug it back out. In those days the cave entrance (all of them) were just holes in the ground, no hand rails etc. Also, under kiger island bridge where you went down the steep path. Just under the bridge next to the step path written on one of those beams is “platinum puma” (long story) but I scratched that into the bridge support in 1983. It’s a reference to ad and d. Kiger island didn’t have stores etc on it when I was a kid, it’s always been farmland. In fact, other then the trees groaning taller, it looks the same. Just, always been that way :) it’s a special place and A LOT of history follows kiger island.

@@BushcraftTexas I would certainly like to do an Eastern Oregon trip, but closest I've come so far is Hood River. One of the reasons I made this channel is that in the past, I went to a lot of places in the Pacific Northwest...and realize I would have liked to have a better record. I lived on the South Coast in 2013, and visited all the towns between Brookings and Coos Bay---and now, I really wish I had a record of those trips! But who knows where I will go next...

And the internet likes cats.

The big difference is that outside of the shadowed ravines, this forest is way more open. And drier. So it feels different than most of McDonald-Dunn. And also, of course, much less people here.

I don't know if my camera can catch their light. :(

@@glowingfish Oh, yeah, that's right. And they aren't spectacular at all when they are just walking around being bugs.

I didn't know that was the flower's name but it works for me.

I agree, no offense to the town or the people, but for me, the number one draw here is nature. Maybe why I have made more videos about the mountains than the towns... even though the town videos are much more popular.

They actually seem to have stopped maintaining their own web page, and just use a Facebook page: facebook.com/grupocaribenos?locale=es_LA Traveling in Costa Rica can be difficult for this reason---it is sometimes hard to find information, and it is just assumed that people know where things are. My bus ride wasn't 4 hours, but it was close. A little over 3 hours? It is too far for a day trip, unless you are really motivated.

One thing I love about the river here is that it has so many sides to it, like in places its a deep rushing river and then it becomes almost a swamp in places. And that is just in a small stretch in a park next to town! So there is so much to see.

I didn't know the moose's name but now I do.

My bicycle was very much locked in this video.
