Ep:2 The Apostle Islands Beagle Adventure | Michigan Island lighthouse and Beyond
Howdy fellow adventurers, in this episode, Wavey and I head out to Michigan Island to show you around the lighthouse grounds. There's actually two lighthouses on the island (you'll see). We also do a little beach combing before heading up to Outer Island....lots more to come so don't go anywhere.
Hi again, Back Waters Brenton here. After a day of rest and recovery, we slipped into the top of the Tenn-Tom Waterway, and it felt like a different chapter of the adventure. Things slowed down even more--and it felt wonderful. The scooter came in handy for exploring forgotten little towns (like Tishomingo, Mississippi) I had never been to this part of America--even by road. I remember thinking "where did everybody go?" It was fall (again) and everyone was busy living their lives.
To all those folks that followed along when the trip was happening, thank you. You kept me company and I never felt lonely.
Thanks for watching.

Hi Everyone, some folks have been asking me about the UP, housing prices, and general "what's it like up there" questions, so I figured it would make a good series to talk about that. Last week I took an over-night road trip out to Grand Marais, Michigan--one of the best little end of the road towns anywhere (in my opinion) I hope ya'll enjoy spending a few minutes looking around a place not too many folks get to--feel free to ask more questions if you like.

Howdy fellow adventurers, Wavey and I left Florida last week headed to Tennessee, where we caught up with fellow YouTubers "Another Time AnotherPlace" (ATAP).
Martin and River have spent the winter exploring unnamed islands and creeks in the area since last fall. YouTube was doing a good job hiding his channel from me until a few weeks ago. Of course the Nosy Beagle and I had to go meet them for ourselves ;)
The plan is to spend the next few weeks here exploring the local Back Waters and Back Roads (hence living up to our name) and of course sharing it with y'all. ;)
Stay tuned...a lot more to come.
Wavey got attacked by a pitbull recently. I'll make a video about it soon.
Want to get her a treat?

Howdy! I drove the Beagle bus home this last weekend from Minnesota. We averaged 15 MPG (which I find amazing) and filled it up with all sorts of goodies along the way. Here it is the end of April, and it snowed last night...kind of getting sick of it. Stuff to do, places to go and adventures to be had.
Switching back over to the Beagle Barge here this week--more to come.

Howdy fellow adventurers....me again! In this episode (Part-2) we talk about operation winter escape: 2021 edition. As you'll see, winter is bullying its way into the northland, and we all get to find out how much ant and how much grasshopper we were this summer and fall. I try not to make a lot of talking head videos, but sometimes that's the only way to get it done. Hopefully you'll find this one informative and entertaining.
As always, thanks for sticking around our little channel. Link to part:1 is here

I rode a 2003 Yamaha Zuma 49cc from St. Cloud, Mn. To Myrtle Beach, SC. in the winter of 2015. I did the trip in about 2 weeks and spent about 200 bucks. The sound quality is terrible and I obviously didn't know to hold the camera sideways.
