A Thirst For Good: Scott Harrison

Amazing how many millions of people don't have access to clean water. With all the Billionaires running around trying to play God, you'd think they could address this simple issue! From the Lee Harris "“Impact the World" podcast:

Celebrating Christmas, Early American Style!

From the Early American youtube channel. The first video is about decorating and making spiced cider, and the other is about making gingerbread people.

As you can see from the second video, Community First! expanded their model greatly since 2014 when the first video was made.

Cornered by Pirates |1820s Drama Episode #15

This is from the Early American youtube channel. I normally watch this channel for Justine's early American cooking, unfortunately they aren't vegan so I've been hesitant to feature them on my blog. It's just fun to watch them. Justine and Ron are an actual couple who live in that anachronistic home in Missouri. This is such a corny, silly drama ... but I love history and these two remind me of Dustin's Dojo, their charm is in their goofiness! :D

10 Hours of Rain in a Cardboard Tent

A lot of people suggested that you could prolong the life of this shelter by putting a tarp over it, or at least the wrapping it came with. I thought one might also use 50-gallon drum liner, plastic cling wrap, or tinfoil. Plus duct tape. :D

From Kent Survival channel:

Michael Hermes Shred Guitar: Nightmare

This kid is about the same age as Quinn Sullivan, who I posted last month. Both are about the same age as my oldest son and I've been following them since before their voice changed. Incredible no one (except for other people who have real talent) have heard of this guy. People with real talent just don't get a stage anymore unless they're willing to make a really, really bad deal. Like poor Ye (see my political blog for today).

Jammin' with Akili and Me

I had to smile when I saw that one of the youtube channels I was following (Wilson World) because their kids are child prodogies, mentioned a channel I used to follow because I wanted to learn Kiswahili. Akili is actually a very cute African cartoon with great songs translated into both Swahili and English, and now I guess they've added even more languages. So if you don't mind learning a foreign language by watching the African equivalent of Sesame Street, you should check it out. Also, Wilson World is wonderful, everyone in the family is so talented!

Old Love by Eric Clapton (Cover by Quinn Sullivan)

This kid has real talent. That's probably why no one's ever heard of him, considering the age we're in.

Asian girl builds gorgeous bamboo hideaway

It's hard to believe this young lady acheived the mastery so clearly shown here in her short lifetime.

Korean camping girl making palatial tent in the rain

Cho Cho popped up on my youtube feed, and I was like, what??? She's the exact opposite of old school Corporal Kelly, who can whip up a shelter in less than two minutes with a tarp and some string. But you can't help but admire her industry! She's stylin' like a British aristocrat on safari! :D

Steve Wallis new video

I've been a fan of Steve Wallis (Canadian stealth camper) for a long time, as evidenced by this blog. Recently his wife passed away suddenly. All I can say is, what a strong man.

New Moon in Virgo

This is just before my birthday so it will probably affect me quite a bit. Pam has some really great advice at the end of this video. Don't be distracted by external chaos that is coming in the later part of the year ... focus on the heart.

Mountain life in Iran

I love "village life" videos. I grew up in Montana. I knew a rancher family who lived just like this (except they had a fridge, gas stove, table and chairs, and indoor plumming). Life was centered around good food, hard work, and family. People around the world are pretty much the same.

Cpl. Kelly's Corner

I found this guy a while back. Fun to watch with all the fear-mongering going on right now. Lockdown looming? Don't worry, you can always make a cheap, spiffy shelter! Useful skill for the Zombie Apocolypse.
