I drive up to The Tent because of heavy rains in northern Minnesota to do a Tent check. Roads have been washed out. Many places have flooded. Water everywhere but the Tent is fine.
When you showed the inside of dad's place, I wanted to take a nap on the bed. So peaceful and so beautiful. I could be there for a month and never get bored or tired of that most beautiful camp. ♥ I am glad all was ok with both properties.
Where I live near Dower Lake in Central MN area is swamp land. My house has a minimum of 7 springs/auqufers underneath. Both the sump pump and emersion pump were definitely running, I do need to upgrade to a battery backup sump pump for sure,about 6 inches of water in the basement. Cleaned up now, but any good rain or heavy snow thaw it's the same.
Mosquitoes! My wife and I were in Ketchican Alaska a couple of years ago in June, brother they were relentless…now with all the rain you got I can only imagine.
Hey there mr Joe I hope all is well that's a lot of rain in your had but the part where you were talking about about the hills you would think it would drain a lot more faster up when y'all in being the hills are more higher than what we got down here in Louisiana being a flat and it's slow slow slow and it takes a long time to be done with
Talking about flooding Joe the town of Rock Valley Iowa in Nw. Iowa was evacuated yesterday and the patients in the hospital were moved to Sioux Center Ia hospital so now they are full We had 10 in of rain in the last week and 30 in the last 3 weeks in Sanborn Iowa there isn't a road that the water isn't running over it. Where you are at Joe compare that to Rock Valley Iowa Town. Stay safe Joe
You made me laugh about the guy on the bike..we have the same drama here in Canberra (Aus) the majority of the roads have separate lanes for them and when a car passes them you have to give them a metre clearance…then on the weekend all the mmils ( middle aged men in Lycra) come out riding in "pelatons" in the middle of the roads…pretending to be in the Tour de France but heading to their group coffee date at local cafes..and they are allowed to hold up the traffic as much as they like 😑🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Joe, I think you are correct with the land being more flat where Melissa is from. Ideally, flatter land would have better drainage.
Also, I think the further north it is more sandy as well. I wonder if we have more wetlands and rivers that erode and cause more problems with dirt roads. Bevers are another big problem in minnesota. Just some thoughts.
know you do trips for content but you should also install webcams at your tent so you can check in live from your home
Dutchman is now Sunkman.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤
That’s a lot of flooding! Glad you didn’t have any damage!
It sure was nice to take a ride in the old King Ranch again. I miss that girl.

Your Fathers cabin is one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen. He is truly an artist
Joe Send some of that rain to Virginia we can use it 👍
The sidewalks are full of Glass and are notoriously never swept. Thats why cyclists use the road where I live.
What is the name of the Lake ????? Mosquito Lake ??
My prediction is y’all will see more deer come hunting season, than you have in previous years. Let’s see if I’m right.

I never knew your dad had such a long boardwalk to the water. Hopefully your outboard survived. Weather extremes r getting more frequent for sure

I thought of y'all when I saw tornado and other storm warnings for around up there!!
Wow, I can't wait to see a followup video…
Once the water goes down you’ll have pan for gold in some of them.

I'm happy to see the tent is alright.
🤘🤘
Holy smokes!
I would think that a chainsaw is a must to take along on a tent visit. But, I'm sure you had other thing on your mind.
u need to spare some kind of rust preventer on ur truck before it falls apart
Here in Missouri this kind of flooding is an every year occurrence.
Stay safe
I wonder what this flood is going to do for hunting this season…
I just watched the Rapidan dam failure on YouTube. All that rain and nowhere to go fast enough.
I hope your ma and pa are ok because of the flooding down by the twin cities.
Typical sensationalism by the stoopid TV networks over the 'imminent dam collapse' …. it would have collapsed by now already.
