Thank you for the tour. I especially enjoyed hearing about your parents and especially your mother and how involved she was in the business. I loved hearing she traveled with your dad. Seeing her later in home videos with Jonas, would never have that she liked traveling.
Elvie you had the time of your life with this trip. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. 💗
Your visit with the homeowner was so wonderful. Can’t wait to see more of your Journey.
Wonderful hearing these stories and seeing your family's handiwork! Thanks for sharing.
Still praying for your trip... watch out for Elk on your way home
That was really cool to tour the log home your dad built. This is a very cool video series. Travel safely Elvie
How Cool Mrs. Hall let you in the Log home your parents pioneered for them❣️👍🏻😎WOW ~ So Wonderful ~ great scenery ~ we have never been to Alaska, fun to see your road trip adventure. God’s protection on your continued travels ~ stay warmer! 👍🏻😎
Big log cabin there and so well put together!!! I like it a lot!!!
God Bless You love your TH-cam channel 🙏🏻northern California wine country ! That cold weather reminds me of my childhood in Wisconsin 🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️🌬️
Great adventure Elvie. Thank you for taking us along. I have traveled to some overpopulated cities around the world, but my wife and I felt like Fairbanks, AL was underpopulated. Im from the south so Im used to southern hospitality. We found little in Fairbanks. My wife theorized people are short on sleep. Enjoy.
This has been so enjoyable to watch! It was nice seeing the lovely log home that your company put together for the couple. It looks fantastic! I’m sure Joas and his family will be happy to see you! Their new home is lovely and it’s in a beautiful area.
Fabulous Mrs Hall let you in to look! Kudos to her, especially after having worked a full day & no warning of the visit.
I Enjoyed Fairbanks visiting a nurse friend and went to every fabric and quilt store there. Thanks for taking us along.
Great video Elvie. The drive, and meeting folks along the way, and the cabin tour were all incredible.
So very awesome! I loved this video of you meeting this family and seeing the house your family built. ❤️🤗🙏🏻❤️🤗
Thanks for sharing these great videos Elvie. I really enjoyed them. Be safe on your journey and God Bless.
The amount of snow that has collected on the roof shows how good the insulation is. No melted spots. Lovely.
How awesome this was! Such a trip and loved the tour of the log home. Gorgeous and huge!
Such talented are all of you boys and your dad and mom started it all..............such a blessing!
God bless and have a great trip.
Sehr schönes Video Elvie. Wundervolles Haus habt ihr dort gebaut. Sehr sehr schön in Alaska. Grüße aus Frankfurt und bleibt alle gesund.
Nice video, a great walk down memory lane. I’m amazed your dad built that beautiful large log home in Fairbanks, at my age, 30 years ago. Maybe we could get a fundraiser going to give that family and log home a real log staircase , possibly by auction time in May. Thank you for awesome videos.😊
Wonderful video. I really enjoyed watching it. Thanks for sharing.
Again, Elvie thank you very much for taking us along on your travels. It would have been interesting to see the inside of the greenhouses to see what they are growing. Guess we will see you next at Joas and Pricilla's. Safe travels! Is there a video of your greenhouse that you were building at your new home?
Awesom. Georgious landscape and bravura craftsmanship from your dad, Elvie. A great trip. Love it. 💪👍🙏
I love the log home,, ❤, with the low ceilings makes it look all the more cozy ..❤, Thank you for sharing your beautiful trip with us,, stay safe😊
Elvie!! Thanks for you tour of AL, my Dad told Me about this area years ago!! Hey to Joas an his Fam, we also enjoy there CH> Carry On !! Time is the best way to sell Log Homes~~proof 30 years later!!
Wahou 😮 bonjour Elvi, je me régal les paysages sont magnifiques, merci pour cette vidéo. Bisous de Nouvelle Calédonie
Thanks so much for the video. I am looking forward to being in Fairbanks in septembar at the end of our 12-night Costco cruise.
I love the log home
You've had great weather... beautiful! Next chapter for you: "Travels with Elvie...."
Steve.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL 👍❤😇🙏 GOD IS AN ABSOLUTE AWESOME AMAZING CREATOR 🙏 GREAT VIDEO 👍
Excellent PR for the company to show a 30+ year old log home that is still in great condition in such a demanding environment. I bet the outside is still sturdy and shows NO sign of deterioration in spite of the harsh winters. Take care, Elvie.
Valley’s are ok, but pine tree covered mountains are Beautiful.
God certainly knew how to create a beautiful earth for us.
I called Meadowlark today and gave her my phone number to give to you so that when y’all get to Yakima in a few months, y’all can come up and visit.
I’ve got a men’s retreat in mid April, but otherwise we’ll be available to show you around our mountainous area
Thank you Doc. You’ve been an avidly enthusiastic commenter so. I hope we can build your log cabin for you someday!
G-day Elvie it James from Australia some road trip my friend it always great to go back see ones finished work and how much people aprecate it good workmanship.I can go back a little than you because most of my Plasterwork was on Embasses and Public Building it interesting to go back after fifty years see and find its still there I tell people to wear a hardhat when walking under any of my Ornamental mouldwork and such (thats a joke by the way) I have to admitt I still get a kick when they say you did all that, I yes but I was only one out four or five that worked on it at the time. And we were all lot younger.I thought that may give you something read You take care my friend in God we trust.✌👍
I lived on Anderson Island for many years. I’d take the ferry to and from the mainland every day to go to work at Western State Hospital (WSH).
WSH is the 2nd largest mental health hospital in America.
I retired from there and moved my happy butt out of the Left and in the Right place in north central Washington state.
Canadians call the sun rainbows, Sundogs. They only appear when it's very cold, - 30 or colder.
Elvie i seen a video where you went and stained the customers cabin 2 years later after the build could you please let me know what the product you used and the final coat with the bug juice and explain how it works? Do you charge per sq ft for applying or how do you charge to have you refinish a guys home? Very interested.
Our main product, and the one that I recommend is called Timber Pro. We mix the desired color and BugJuice into the Timber Pro which is a plant-based product. You can contact the Meadowlark office and talk to Ben and they can quote and schedule the refinish for your project. Each video has a phone number and link below to contact the office.
How was the road from Haines Junction north to the Alaskan border? When i drove it last summer that stretch was easily the worst pot-holed road i ever drove on.
All highways were completely smooth with no almost no bumps, and no potholes. I think in the winter it fills with snow and freezes solid so it’s nice and smooth.
@@AmishMeadowsOfficial I guess traveling that stretch in the winter would have at least one advantage then!
Btw, even though we've never met, I'm your second cousin. My dad (Menno MIller) was your dad's first cousin and were about the same age growing up together in N. Indiana. Interestingly, my dad was not only your dad's first cousin but also your mom's first cousin, through his other grandparents. After my dad passed away several years ago we discovered in his papers a number of letters from your dad written back in 1976-77 in the early days of Rexford. My dad was a minister and your dad was encouraging my dad to move out to Rexford. My folks visited your family several times but ultimately never moved there. They ended up moving to Hale MI instead where I grew up with a whole bunch of your 1st cousins. I often chuckle at Joas' videos as often sounds so much like some of your cousins.
How does your truck not freeze up?
In the next video, which posts in a few days, you will see the constant -30 and 40°F. caused the truck’s emission system to freeze and caused some problems. but the issues went away when the weather warmed to 0 F..
🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
I would have freaked out if someone called me last min to show my house on TH-cam!
Boy that was a long drive Elvie. I guess you can't trust Alaska airlines these days after that door blew off.
Did you happen to visit your brother?
I just posted that I arrived at my brothers house. I will post more videos of his house and maybe some more log homes on the way home.
Was that the husband cooking.....he didnt seem to happy about th visit.....thanks to the wife for letting you video
I asked him if he’d like to be videoed, but he declined since his English wasn’t too good. But he was super nice and gave me some fish in the end!
Loved the video. You shouldn't have. You didn't yto correct her as she know she was told it was the biggest at the time. You should have left it as that. I may not eatch you for a while
Elvie, thanks for sharing another great video, and such a blessing to see the home from 30 years ago in Fairbanks and it was wonderful hearing about your Mom and Dad being part of the build.
God Bless you, safe travels 🙏🙏🙏😊
Glad you enjoyed it
