Hello folks we were back at the fort for the very first time in a long time you can see here this sides hanging down where normally it was propped up like that tied up like that so what happened was this tree broke off of that and came down and broke ripped the paracord right out of the tarp to pour the grommet out.

So let's fix that okay so there's the grommet in the end of the paracord as well so you can see stretches it comes to about there I'm gonna cut this get the grommet off I'm gonna loosen up the cordage so you get a little bit more space just to do a button around here and get it up so normally you can use snow for buttons.

But I don't want the snow to melt so I got some pot root flowers a little bit too much there you go I'm just gonna ball it up underneath this tarp and tie around it  that's potentially what I probably what I should have had on before as opposed to just tying on to the grommets because.

Everyone knows the gums are susceptible to breaking wears these buttons it won't be the same deal I'm just gonna tie a double knot and then I'll go and tighten up my taut line hitch on the other side   boy like a toga weight like the Tiger King huh anyone anyone Joe exotic over.

Here all right we're good we're good let's give an update those how everyone amidst this craziness believe it or not this does affect my channel you say to yourself well that doesn't make any sense Joe you go into the woods you shoot camping videos you're already social distancing you're not around anyone you're just going to.

Shoot videos outside well that's the case but I can't upload from home I can't open it from home as I'm sure you know my videos are normally about an hour along on the shore end and also as you've come to expect watching my videos they're lonely mainly camping videos right I rarely go for the day without camping and even if I do it's still all.

Day and it's still an hour long video so therein lies the problem I have videos waiting a whole video is in the queue ready to go I can't upload them every week I go into into town which is sue Saint Marie and I go into an office that I'm so graciously allowed to use and I share the office with many people there and I upload from there and it takes a.

Second to upload an hour-long video to upload an hour-long video from my home I could start it I say 10 o'clock p.m. 10 o'clock at night I let it go all night when everybody's sleeping wake up probably right in the mornings 30% done this is not an exaggeration I've said this before if I go into town to upload that.

Same hour-long video takes two minutes five minutes sometimes in 1080 so it's obvious that my upload speed is not where it needs to be and I have tried believe you me and Windsor I had upload speed like that where I am it's just not feasible right now I can't I can't even get a high-speed Internet everything runs off Internet half the time I'm.

Losing everything we're watching TV we're watching Netflix we're watching YouTube the kids watching Disney Plus or playing you know I mean our games well it's not we're just gonna throw the ball for the dogs who doesn't squeak it in your ear oh so all of that makes sense right here's the other kicker I knew this is gonna be something I had a.

Feeling and I was listening to people like wranglers star early on I know if you guys stop watching Wrangler star media it's time to start watching him again and the guys on the ball right now regardless I thought this was something before a lot of people did and I was convinced that I needed to go down to Windsor and pick up my mom and my my.

Wife's mom and my two nieces to get them up here to get them away from that stuff where I am right now we're secluded you know I mean there's barely anybody that has it around us and I don't need to talk to anybody I have supplies for months I'm good but in Windsor it's a different story it's good if it's congested and it's.

Right next to the states there and you're stuck there's nowhere to go from down there you're stuck by Detroit on one side and Toronto on the other Canada has implemented state emergency or sorry Ontario has implement state emergency no one those stores are open the only things are open are like grocery stores and only old people are allowed to go in.

The morning and then you have to set up a time where you're allowed to where you can go and pick up your stuff from from the curb they'll collect it all and you pay right there so you doesn't go in what else everything's closed right like everything's closed it's just crazy and in Windsor I knew it was gonna be bad.

Too so before all this craziness happened I I convinced my mother-in-law and my two nieces to come up with me I could not convince my mom she's still just fine and maybe it is but you need to be smart too so anyways I went down and picked all all those people up so I have three extra people in my home right now right.

So I have three extra people on the Internet three extra people eating things through extra bum bums to clean you know I'm saying toilet paper stuff my point is I can't upload videos because the Internet is being destroyed at my home and even if it wasn't it would take me forever to upload so if I were to upload an actual normal length.

Video from home it will probably take me three nights and I'd have to suspend the upload in the morning when everyone woke up because it would just not work and I feel by the time three nights or something's gonna screw up in that upload and I can't go into town tell it like I said so I definitely want to continue to put content out for you guys.

Especially because everyone's at home right now and I've been getting comments where are you Joe type thing I'm still around I have content at home waiting what I think I have to do right now is upload ten minute long videos right because I can upload a 10 minute long video over over the course of a night maybe only take a half a night at home.

And I can put out more you don't even I don't really want to do an overnight and break it up into 10-minute intervals and do it that way I might spend some time and attention to doing a little bit of skill videos which I haven't done in years maybe a knife skill video over here is my knifes videos or I I did shoot a my favorite splitting axe video.

I shot it at home I split wood for two years with this axe I shot that video maybe I'll upload that who knows I do want to put content out for you guys I know you want it I just can't continue to do my normal content right now until I can go on upload normally I'm sure you guys understand that it's pretty straightforward so what I do want from.

You is to let me know in the comments is that sufficient is that something you want would you rather just wait and not see anything and wait for Emmy shoot some overnights or some trips and bank those and have those in the queue until it's time to be normal again or would you prefer that I just took my time and spent my effort and and time on making.

These shorter 10 minute ten minute videos and putting off regularly and that way you guys trip trip Shh you guys will still have content coming out from me it'll be a little bit different than my normal self this will be a throwback throwback to my old stuff I'll do a Knotts video you know I mean like the three best.

Bushcraft nots how to sharpen your knives my favorite axe all things like that like some clothes videos stuff like that where it won't take me an hour but I'll still be informational maybe a little bit or entertainment and yeah so let me know let me know in the comments whether or not you want me to wait or continue to do these short videos and.

Then if you do want me to do these short videos let me know some interesting topics that you might have questions about that you may have asked me in the past that I never replied to you or you didn't get those those answers or those videos out of let me know maybe that will be something that I can concentrate on maybe I'll do a question and answer a.

Video I did shoot much my trip down to Windsor and back just I brought my camera and shot it just to see what kind of craziness I was getting into it wasn't really crazy but it was very different very different I drove normally it takes me 10 hours each way I got there eight and a half and then nine on the way home I just cruise I didn't.

Stop at all but maybe I pulled that video as well but anyways I hope everyone is staying well be prepared for the long haul go check out Wrangler stars videos I don't think that this is the end of the world but I do think this is a huge wake-up call I think that I need to go take this dog ball away from this dog real quick tripper.

I think that this is a good wake-up call for people everyone's been complacent complacency is the name of the game and I think that after this it's going to change I know for me personally good boy I know for me personally I got complacent and now I have BOGO bags packed at home I've got everything ready to go maybe that's another video I can.

Do packing a bubble bed I don't want to preach doom and gloom I don't you know what I mean I want to just be real and if there's anyone still saying that this is their blowing this out of proportion or this isn't then you need to get your head over to the sand brah you know I mean be prepared for a couple more months of this I assume so I'm very.

Blessed and lucky and happy I live where I live and I'm glad I'd made the move with my family when I did cuz I'd be probably going a little crazy in Windsor but all right guys that's the end of this video I'm gonna shoot another one while I'm out here get two out for you guys and trying to upload them in a quick succession so have a great day.

Be safe be kind to your neighbors ask them if they need stuff while you're going out I don't know what it's like where you live but where I am that's how the how the norm is now this will cause some craziness but it also will bring people together and you bet your butt on that you know that's true the human nature so be uh be a good neighbor be a.

Good person this one eventually I'll see you guys soon Oh sounded weird I'll see you guys soon goodbye
