This week Drox and I worked on the cabin, fished and sat in the sauna. It was wonderful. Spending the weekend in the mountains with my grandson is just the greatest thing. It is what life is all about. I love the joy and wonder of childhood, and in a sense, I am reminded of my own youth when we are out here together. Time flies and I know these moments won't last long. I am so grateful for these memories. I sure don't want to miss out on them.
We will continue working on the cabin, sanding, painting, trimming and generally getting the place into shape. Winter is coming soon my friends. We also have a wedding happening here within the next few weeks. There is a lot of work to get done. I had better get to it.
Peace
Love it when you work with your grandson - the love that you have for each other shines through.
Love seeing you working with Drox. You're right, the time for making memories is now, and will last a lifetime.
Awe making memories with your grandson 💕 he's growing up to fast. He loves working with his grandparents.
Grandkids make old folks young again. We just got out first great grandson, we are so proud.
What a wonderful young man you’re grandson is. A blessing.
It’s always a pleasure seeing your grandson working with you. You are a wonderful teacher. Very patient 👏👏👏
What a blessing for both of you! Cannot wait to be a Grandfather! God bless your whole family!
Drox wearing the antlers was the perfect look for sitting in a Viking chair!
Drox, young man, good to see you! You didn't give up, and that generator started. Good job!
You are so gentle and manly with that boy, It's no wonder he adores you. BRAVO
The closing scene of this video could be a greeting card picture for Father's Day...........Oh what a gorgeous serene spot to just sit and listen to the water and ponder ___________ life, happiness, the clouds above, the lush greenery, vibrant flowers....or whatever thought pops into my head.
Great! The young boy learn with giant steeps!! Congratulations my friend, it is only due to you! Great grandpa! Peace for Alaska
I just adore watching these grandpa/grandson moments between you two. Even in the short time I've seen him he sure has learned a lot. Y'all asked that keep you informed on the husband, Kyle, and how he is doing. They have half the staples out from his hand where the grafts were placed and the rest are to come out this morning. The grafts look good and healthy. Well, relatively speaking that is. It still looks so bad, but I get what the doctor is saying. I will have to go to the hospital to learn to dress his hand and leg where the grafts were taken from, but I am trying to time it for when they will release him so I can bring him home the same day. Not sure if I told y'all before, but he is over an hour away from here and I can't see to drive so being able to see him during this past week has not been able to happen except for the day of surgery. Fingers crossed he is released soon and then can begin the long road to recovery. Doc says he'll have to follow therapy for at least a year.
I so hope you have supportive people around you during this great challenge! Sending a prayer for your husband and you!
@@chrisresch5917 - I have emotional support from family that isn't too terribly far so if I need anything to help in caring for him I can call on them. Thank you so much for the prayer. That means the world to us.
Maintenance is the key to longevity and you execute it perfectly. Have a great weekend!
Such a sweet video. Teach them while they are young. And enjoy every moment you can! Blessings!
Being with nature is a great happiness.
'That's a really good day's work Drox'. Special times including a spot of fishing together. And congratulations too Gale - 37 years and the same good sign. No doubt that has been cherished and cared for too. I love work like this - I could watch it all day ;)
Love how you give your grandson jobs to do and he loves it because you’re there. He’ll always remember that♥️
What a great video! Working together in the family is priceless! Great job!
Love your videos. Love the Alaskan atmosphere. Good job sir!
Sooooo adorable!! What a lovely day to share, precious moments money can't buy, Time will always be the most valuable thing we have, and this is for absolute sure, time well spent
Drox is such a great helper 🥰
Grandson working with Grampa, fun, and education. Goo job Grandpa! 😁😁😎😎
Drox really wants to impress you, I could tell when he was trying to start the generator and then his face when it started. Priceless 😍. He has learned so much from you 😊. I love when Drox is there with you.💕
It was nice seeing Drox back at the cabin giving you a hand. I hope one day he looks back on all these videos of the two of you together. I can only wish that I had been able to video the time I spent with my Grandfather. Thank you for the video, enjoyed as always.
Good morning my friend. Yes, we will both look back on these videos and remember the god days together. They pass too quickly. There aren’t many things in life that are more important then spending time with our families
brother gale the video very beautiful the part that we liked the most is the moment where you are with drox fishing in the river are moments that the child will never forget and time will pass and he will remember you so we are no longer gale I also have children and in name of them I send you a thank you for the good you do for him drox just like us he will also tell this story when he is our age greetings to tanya a drox and all your family sergio and family
Thank you Sergio. Greetings to you and your beautiful family. I love the weekends spent with Drox. He is a huge blessing to me and I treasure our times together. Hug your family for me. Much love to you all from all of us here in Alaska
I love watching your interaction with Drox. He is adorable. Our grandchildren are an inheritance from God.
Great to see you instructing and including Drox in your work. He learns well from a good teacher and participates keenly. It was even better to see the two of you fishing together; sharing some down time together as well. Oh, and what were those beautiful flowers at the start? Richard from Down Unda.
So sweet. The scenes in this video are prize winning photos.
Yay, Drox, for starting that generator!
Drox you own that generator 👍👍
Hello, what a joy to see you together again...a big hug for both of you and another special one for DROX..........a video full of beauty and love THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱🇺🇸Nice place to live.
Your both are so precious to watch..what learning Experience he getting so adorable.
You and your grandson got the job done and enjoyed fishing thats wonderful memories
A little fishing with young Drox …… sounds like a great day ! 😁 take care Gale ✌️
Drox is such a helper you guys renewed some life to the cabin exterior Wedding will extra special with the love & care in the preparations
the sun and wind in this north country makes cabin maintenance a must, glad to see you had good help
Очень приятно за вами наблюдать. Дед и внук.
I think Drox is your best guest.
Your grandson is very blessed to have a grandfather that can teach him so much and spend a lot of time with him. I was about 16 when my grandfather passed away. I'm 73 years old now and I can still remember how he loved me and spoiled me. I would got to visit him at the store and he would see me coming and would sing, If I'd ah seen you coming I'd of baked a cake. When I would be sad or having a hard time he would tell me, you are a poor little fellow with a coconut head. I know to many it may sound silly, but I really loved him and of course miss him. Son, you will learn a lot from grandad, spend as much time with him as possible. you will NEVER regret it Picture of you two sitting on the board fishing, is PRICELESS!!!
He did it yay!! That’s the trouble I have!! Awe fishing with grandpa
You and Drox make a great team! Drox has a good sense of humor! Great video.
Good cute that’ll learning to see your grandson can do painting with grandpa so teach share theme so he looks like a sit down to fishing enjoyable great day 👌🏾🥰😁
Nice grandson and grandpa moments that will last a lifetime. When you two were standing on the little bridge, I thought you two were doing your business, lol. You know Gale, I could live in that cabin full time, the view from there is fantastic and I like the openness of it. Thanks for sharing.
Great seeing Drox joining you this week, what a determined & willing helper he is. Working & then fishing, wonderful 🤗 Ann
Beautiful photography, love love the fireweed, so beautiful.
Brother Gale, you gave his cabin a new image, it looked like new, we eagerly await the video because these places are really beautiful in winter or summer, there are several places at different times, in short, they did a good job, greetings guys, Sergio and family
I am so glad to hear you are enjoying our videos. We are worlds apart but are able to share our lives each week. That is so amazing to consider isn’t it? Have a wonderful week my friend. Much love to you and your family
So Adorable Drox getting the generator going...INFACT IF THERE WAS AN ADORABLE METER ON THE VLOG IT WOULD MEASURE A THOUSAND!...you need to still shot the back view of y'all sitting and fishing and hang it on the wall.
Love the videos with Drox and Grandpa 👍🙏❤️
The "old man" is pretty smart. Long after he is gone, the "kid" will be invested in the cabin that he helped build. There's a big difference between being shown something and "doing it".
Your a good guy, tolerate things well, nice to see. Thank you.
Спасибо! Отличный парень растёт.
That little boy works harder than a lot of grown men I know!!! 👍
Great boy's. It's coming together just right. Good times with families.
Wooden houses, they are like living organisms: - they always "breathe" and always require comprehensive care! It is a pity that we did not manage to see the results of fishing! Grayling loves to settle in such rivers! I often wonder how exactly you explain the basics of filming to Drox. "You enter the house together, and a video camera is already installed there," - all the previous remains behind the scenes! After all, you pre-direct his behavior, explain the next steps, etc. How does Drox view such entertainment? I see that with each new "film", he becomes more "liberated".
Happy to know that you guys are safe and sound. The wedding may be very busy, but as an important part of life, it's obviously worth it. Best wishes. A viewer from China.
So wonderful to see the two of you together. You are the epitome of a great granddad! Thank you for all you teach him. God bless!
Another wonderful video that you shared Gale. Mrs.Tanya is a blessed lady to have such a great family and to live in The Last Frontier. Its blazing hot down here in Lower Alabama, about 3.4K miles from you guys. I really enjoy watching your videos each week and the content that you share is outstanding. Thanks for sharing each episode of your many adventures and daily activities that many folks can learn from and admire from afar.
Such a handsome, hardworking grandson, learning a lot. Determined too! He got that generator going! What a GORGEOUS grin he has. Then on to fun at fishing. Thank you. Nice to see the logs all treated, and the views.
I've said it before, but you have a great little helper there. He's going to be building his own cabin before too much longer! The logs look real nice. I thought of using the same method with the angle grinder to clean up my own logs. Nice to see it works so well. Peace from Delta!
Good morning friends, the fireweed is so pretty in front of the cabin, looks like fun times with your little helper, we look forward to your videos all week, hope your blessed and happy the cabin is looking so nice
Once again Drox stole the show. What a super helper you have there. I loved this video. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful purple flowers. What are they? Drox and grandpa work and relax well together. Thanks for sharing.
You were building on this cabin when I first found your channel. Although we sat on the couch and watched you do the work, we feel like a part of the construction. Such a beautiful place! Loved it when Drox put the horns on...LOL. Always enjoy seeing you spend time with him....and it's great to see how much he loves being with you. That final shot in the video needs to be printed and framed. It would be priceless to him one day, plus it's just a perfect scene. Hope everyone is doing well! Tell Tanya we miss her! God bless!
Belle complicité entre grand-père et petit fils bonne continuation.
You guys are awesome! I love how you teach your grandson how to work! He is learning so many useful things! Great moments and memories for you all to cherish for a lifetime! I wish I lived in Alaska! Beautiful state! True craftsman!
What a great kid!
Sweet memories.
Nice Job. Greetings from Indonesia 🇲🇨🙏❤️👍
he is one lucky and amazing young man..
I like it when you work with your grandson. It is good to see you teach him all the things you know.
Great video, great to see Drox again, you two are quite a team. Peace from Arkansas
Olá queridos Gale e Tanya! Espero que estejam todos bem🙏... Imagino que as duas semanas de ausência de vídeos seja para deixar tudo pronto para a celebração do casamento de Dylan!!! Estamos aguardando ansiosamente pelas belas imagens que certamente compartilhará com a gente! Forte abraço em todos e até breve 🇧🇷🙋🏻♀️
At the beginning of the video is just beautiful to see the field of flowers and then the lake. Pictured perfect! This is a special video! These memories will stay with Drox forever. Helping grandpa at the cabin, yes, he turned on the generator all by himself, good job, Drox!!! And then going fishing, I can't get any better than that! Thank you for another amazing video. Looking forward to the next one! God bless you all!!!
Making wonderful memories while teaching valuable skills. Terrific!!
You can tell your grandson loves coming over to help and learn. Great relationship
Nice to see the little guy back . Seems to love helping, and spending time with you. Always a smile on his face. 😀
great video. great to see drox back!!
Olá queridos amigos Gale e Tanya! Enorme prazer em rever Drox aprendendo um pouquinho mais com seu maravilhoso e amado avô! Ele aprecia esses momentos ao seu lado tanto quanto você Gale ! Eu também quando possível aproveito a companhia de minha neta de 6 anos, Ágata, aprendo muito com ela e rimos muito juntas! São recordações que guardaremos para sempre! Espero que o clima tenha cooperado e tenham adiantado os preparativos para o casamento de Dylan! Em minha região não chove a 3 semanas e a temperatura gira em torno de 68 a 86 F durante o dia, em pleno inverno 🤷♀️...Seu verão está sendo atípico? Que todos estejam felizes e reunidos...🙋🏻♀️ 🇧🇷
Thank you for sharing another wonderful, sweet, and memorable time with Dorx. Dorx's smile and giggle just brightens up my week!!! Watching you all together makes me wonder how much better this world would be if more families had this type of love, memories, and most importantly loving times together. I never get tired of watching you and your entire family. God Bless and Protect you all! P.S. To prove how we are on such different spectrums, I am looking forward to our "winter(?)", going to be a high of 115 today and we still have the worst of the summer coming. I am really looking forward to winter. LOL!
Great job Drox!
He wants to be just like Gradpa 👍. The beginning of a fine young man. God Bless you Sir .
Making precious memories! Drox is blessed to have you. Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful child and wonderful relationship!
Beautiful job! Cabin looking good guys👍 Gale and grandson Drox doing maintenance together! Making memories that will last forever👍 Able to look back at your videos : Priceless 👍 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦
Another wonderful peek into the Alaskan way of life. Very peaceful. Thanks!
Great to see Froze again, he is a very good helper!
Good morning, how are you? It is always nice to see you working with your grandson. Grandchildren are the best kids in the world. When I watch you and your grandson it always puts a smile on my face. I hoping my grandson would be like that with my husband. Anyway stay safe and sound and have a wonderful week 😀😀😀😀
That was a good days work, topped off with an evening of fishing.👍 Thank you.
I love binge watching your videos because it is very obvious you are a great craftsman. I'm impressed by how you brave the elements and do so many interesting projects. We just bought a log house and are trying to figure out which stain & color to use. Since we want something kind of orange and kind of red, the stain you chose looks really close to what we want. What was the type of stain and what color did you use on this cabin? It looks just about right. Thanks, Bill.
Well-done 👍🏽😁
awesome job everyone!.
Looks fantastic!
Great final shot
At the beginning of the film, I saw pink flowers, if I'm not mistaken it's fireweed or Ivanchai angustifolia! From fireweed you can make very tasty tea and healthy tincture!
this kid is really being tought well.
One thing missing from this video...where is Stella?? Do you have to do this maintenance every year? I can only imagine the wear & tear of harsh Alaskan winters on exterior wood. Have you ever thought of painting your front door a pretty color? I am always partial to blue so II think a dark blue that is the shade of one of your rain clouds would be great. Or maybe the blue of the water that you see every morning when you walk out the front door.....💙💙
I always enjoy your videos, and love the ones you share with your grandson. Proverbs 22:6 .... walking the walk.
Nice video,grandfather and grandson!!Beautiful team!👍
