Paddling 137 Miles Down The Little Amazon River

It's Beginning I don't get excited about stuff very often but this is something that I'm really excited about I'm pumped I can't wait to see what this Mission has for us here's the beginning Chile do you really think we should do this man to ride these B Miles man Brett do you really think we should do this man well I've got good news they float that's a big step in the right direction bye [Music] girls here we go boys she's sucking Us in so the almahal river it's 137 mies it's only crossed by roads four times I think four times the whole uh the whole course of the river it's undamned all the way to the coast and we're going to take this baby all the way to the Atlantic Ocean what an opportunity man what an adventure that we're about to have feeling blessed today all right guys we're coming up on the headquarters of the timah Hall River so we we put in on the okone and now we paddled the okone to the Terminus where it flows into the timaha and there she is here's the fork in the river there's the timaha Brett chili for you guys that don't know this is the start of a 137 mile long unsupported paddle that me uh Brett and Chile are embarking on so we'll keep you updated along the way this is the start here she is what you think about this CH first lunch we ain't caught a d fish I ain't even had a d bite son I'm just glad we brought food or we be some hungry mugs this evening I mean that's what you got to live with when you're freaking sorry let can't catch a fish we'll keep we'll keep trying so we're at day one this is day one we're at 9.32 miles into our paddle and uh it's absolutely stunning beautiful it's dead silent been hearing owls seen some Osprey we got a pretty good flow here in the river but there's some long stretches where the current slacks up the river in places gets really wide and when it gets wide the current slows down um which makes us move quite a bit slower so we've been at it now for 4 hours and 4 minutes 9.36 miles I'm just so satisfied with the piece that is in this place man uh the just the it's so remote even now and it will only get more so as we move down river this is not going to be a walk in the park man to take this all the way to the Atlantic it's not going to be easy um miles out here come slow well it's already starting we knew the rain was coming today so here it is pretty amazing to be out here and uh not be able to get get out of this this is part of doing missions like this so we got the gear we're pretty much wet anyways and uh so you don't stop when this happens we got camp tonight man that's beautiful Brent how was your first day paddling bro it was real good real good until I broke my fishing pole on that big old bass I hooked Brent got a world record today fastest man to break a fishing pole on the timaha it happens how about you Chile how was your first day on the water I started off paddling real slow and about 4 hours in man I hit my stride oh you hit your stride son I hit my stride ain't no doubt about it I couldn't hardly keep up with you ain't this freaking beautiful man it's something is it unbelievable just think you tried to talk me out of going I'll help you chilly all right guys we got to get to work I'll update you when we get camp set up look at this cat look Joker Welcome to our camp this morning really couldn't ask for a better morning it's not raining everything dried out and we're right here on the the water and Chili's washing dishes it's about how it's supposed to be isn't it good job Chile I cooked I usually wash dishes I cook so that's why Chile's washing dishes all right we're departing campsite one headed out for day two campsite one was awesome it was on the uh nice high Bank on that sandar right there beautiful bend in the river going to be hard to beat that good breakfast this morning bacon and eggs and blueberry Bagel hard to beat son man been eating them Jolly Ranchers son got get you I got a whole pack of them well I had a I got a whole extra one of these tackle boxes and I don't know why I didn't just fill it up with candy like that look got deer oh yep where find them I guarantee you they're in here man some big cypers right there b y going back here and see if you can get some good footage or something first fish on the Ultima Hall these boys ain't got nothing on me son on the old Beetle spin there he is hit it hard Chile do you want this bass look at that boys I mean he slam that beetles spin son Joker slam that Beetle spin I got my beard hung up in my fishing reel so bad I couldn't even enjoy catching the fish I might have to braid this beard although we brought food it would be nice to get to a point out here on the River where you were pretty good enough that you were pretty confident you could feed yourself we are nowhere near that point but one fish is a good sign I'm going to go ahead and tell y'all the old bull will provide I've done caught the only fish out here on the river Chile's been about to starve to death and uh I caught him a bass about an hour or so ago so he'll be gnawing on some Fishbones later on this evening I'll try to get him on camera he's struggling me and bread are doing good Chile's really struggling to find his Groove hey man look at him over there look at him but uh we're going to keep coaching him through it guys let me see what you got here man I mean look at that mon Dar you okay you got a little blue gill son yeah look at that little shell cracker oh that far I done pick that th line up gosh dog you know what man somebody ought to have to come down through here and clean all these stinking lines it's stupid man you can tell they they don't watch over them no Chile has turn into a river Turtle they call me Mr ala I'm freaking kicked off what's going on that was stupid what' you do like an idiot what' you do man I'm an idiot did you lose anything don't know that's another reason CU you can lose stuff you don't know if anything come out oh everything came out but I grabbed it all do you lose your cooler and all Chile has flipped his boat over now he's in the bushes we don't know if he has everything or uh good gosh or what but he's good and wet what the look at that oh he got a pray and man it's on his hat Son Well ladies and gentlemen I don't know if y'all can see that but we're coming up on our third road crossing 21.9 4 miles on day two been on the water for 8 hours and 13 minutes I think Chile and bread are pretty well beat old the old bull is paddling strong son uh at at 20 miles at 20 miles where we were supposed to camp we came across a dab Blum neighborhood and now here we have a highway and uh yeah luckily this River's only crossed by roads four times this is the third one hopefully we'll only see one more of these stupid things uh so that's where we're at the day is getting extended a little bit but maybe that means we can just sleep in in the morning and um we're crushing it man we're crushing it it's been a beautiful day we ain't been raining on all day I mean you can't hardly beat the that caught some fish I mean zero complaints other than Brett and Chile are getting tired you know they're good for about 20 mil a day then they start to they start to pecker on out on me son chil's toing a kayak full of wet gear so uh that's where we're at we'll be wrapping up day two here soon Lord willing we'll see what it looks like around the other side of this road right here uh I prefer not to lay up and listen to this noise of this road all evening so shouldn't take too long to get out of earshot of it not an interstate or anything some sort of Highway hopefully Chile makes it he's all been out of shape because his uh all of his gear ear's wet from flipping his boat over and he's wanting to dry it out so pretty epic there's your evening report enough said well I just want to show y'all around Camp night two we got the old copper spur fully set up no group tarp tonight what's up Brett Brett been battling a migraine all day man he didn't he didn't complain a single time through the whole day he hunkered down we did 25 and a half miles today Chile's in here Chile what's up man hey man how you doing I'm doing good I bet can't get this zipper to work well man you shouldn't have got sand all in it thanks back it out and clean it up man we got a front porch view of the river right here I'll show it to you guys in the morning hey did you let him know J took another spill before he even got out of the kai oh yeah yeah he fell in the water again he's just he's had a rough day got to get him some arm Ploy so we're getting hammered with a storm this morning a bad storm we had a sustained lightning probably uh 10 plus strikes a minute uh for probably the last 20 minutes and it's there's one right there it's um it's just not safe to be on the water quite obviously this is an easy decision so uh we chose to get hunkered down right here and try to wait this thing out uh Chile and Brett have already taken their shelters down so I have a little bit of a shelter still up here just my my outer shell it's holding up pretty well but this is pretty sustained winds and uh a rough rough storm I've got water coming in the tent right now um so we're going to wait this thing out and until it gets safe to be on the water as you can see I'm in the lightening position it's a the lightning drill position this is a third world squat um On My Feet on my heels I'm minimizing my contact with the ground even though I'm under shelter right here this is just offers a uh a false sense of protection all it's doing is keeping the rain off of me but there's really nothing else that we can do we're on a pretty isolated Sandbar uh that's surrounded with a swamp and then we've got the river out front so we are stuck here uh until this thing subsides and it's safe for us to move but that's how our morning is going on the third day of uh of this timaha River mission it's no joke man it's no joke when you're out here and you can't get away from something like this um but that's where we're at so just checking in with you guys upet all right guys so we think it's safe to move we're going to give her a go if it gets nasty again we're just going to stop up with the group tart and hun her down again again but uh we got to get some miles in today we could cover 30 m a day pretty easily if we didn't mess around yesterday was a fishing day but anyways here we go setting off for day three clock is started think I got all my gear squared away Chile called us a lesson yesterday make sure you have all the central gear Carabiner in or at a minimum make sure it floats that was one of the worst storms I've sat through in the in the back country before that jcker was nasty Chile's got his darn rain jacket on look at this guys how about that him and Brett set out under a willow tree the whole storm kind of odd putting I I guess chil got a little cold it's kind of odd putting a rain jacket on uh when you're already soaking wet yep it's still raining the river's coming up Chile's already thinking about the Sand Bar he's going to get to sleep on tonight if there are any sand bars left if it keeps doing this it ain't looking good this Baby's Rising quick man it's probably Rose probably 3 or 4 feet looking at the banks on the left side [Applause] pretty good sustained heavy rain lightning has slacked up quite a bit well what a difference a few hours makes on uh day three of our trip of our Al timal River Mission this morning man we were getting just hammered pouring rain lightning well you guys saw it in the video um and now the sun's out and Brett has lost his sunglasses he dropped them in the water uh which kind of sucks but I did not expect to be wearing sunglasses today at any point in time based off of what the sky looked like this morning but it's absolutely beautiful this is a amazing section of river right through here we're at 14 1/2 miles been on the water for 5 hours of 19 15 minutes I think we'll probably call it a day a little early today uh we got to get uh get some gear dried out and we also will be coming up on a town called Jessup which is uh where the paper mill is and from what I've heard the discharge from that paper mill Utes the water of of the Ultima Hall pretty bad so we want to camp up River tonight of the paper mill and then get up early in the morning and put that thing behind us and uh we'll cut we we'll get some coverage on what that looks like when we pass it tomorrow Lord willing all right guys Camp day three night three I guess we set up early Camp ton tonight because we were soed out I'm talking about completely sogged out nice stretch of sand right here on a beautiful section of river we're just drying out man got a little grass up here today so at least I'm out of the sand Chili's in the sand full sand he likes that sand better than the ants got the hog Buster drying out pretty much everything laid out because we got hammered with some rain day three done 17 and A4 miles forgot to stop my timer what you got there Chile I'm the trash man Chile's the trash man and the dishwasher around here I like those jobs I need more jobs like that I can't believe the sun is out that's it guys Folks At Home Folks at home you wouldn't believe how unlikely it seemed this morning that we'd see any sun today yeah yeah it was socked in catch up with y'all tomorrow or later tonight if something crazy happens which is a distinct possibility it will I don't care how many billions you got you can't buy this no sorry you got to put in the work to get it welcome to Saturday morning Chile great morning man great morning had some fog this morning we had a we had a redneck in Camp well in the river last night that uh was spotlighting for alligator or something and um that was about 2:00 a.m. and he shined us with his Spotlight for a good 45 minutes 30 minutes and well I tell you what Chile didn't like that all fired up I mean Chile did not like that son yeah a word to the wise if I'm up here camping don't even get near me or you're at risk of getting shot I mean that's just about as simple as I can put it what was it verbatim I'm going to shoot him in the face I'm going to blow the head off son man ain't messing around son you know when you try when you kayak you can bring luxury year as you can see we're about to eat a fine breakfast well I say that as long as it don't start raining got a big day ahead of us today boys it's going to be good welcome to day 4 well day four actually started last night about 2: a.m. we well in to day four enough said all right on the river day four nice section right here we'll be coming up on Jessup I think here soon Jessup Georgia but this is a beautiful section of river it's been a great morning weather's been perfect got stung by a bee say that's the only thing I could possibly complain about but I'm not going to because uh wasn't all that bad jile and bread are up ahead I've been hanging back fishing just got done recording a podcast with Blake and uh we're going to try to knock down about 25 miles today so so here we are our fourth and final road crossing in Jessup Georgia on the Altima Hall this should be our final road crossing until we get down into Coastal Waters and Daran so um Jessup looks to be a pretty uh one of the well I guess the largest uh town that the AL Mahal passes directly through and I'm looking forward to putting this road behind us not much places to camp through this section of river uh for the last I'm going to say well over the last five miles leading into Jessup the river's gotten really high and really deep not a lot of sand bars are anything on the on the banks suitable for camping Chile tell the people what you're upset about man I'm not upset Chile is he's in Low Spirits right now what's going on man I mean I would tell him something if I was upset why won't you drink your Gatorade I don't want to Gatorade I don't drink Gatorade why not I is good for you man well I if you don't drink it I'm going to probably I'm not going to throw it away cuz I ain't going to litter but I'm going to find somewhere to hide it in your boat cuz I ain't lugging it around why the world wouldn't you drink Gatorade man cuz I don't want it we can't even do nothing nice for you man brought Gatorade if I wanted it yeah Brett spent $34 back there they probably spent about $2 on that Gatorade I'll pay him back it's like he bought you that Gatorade and now it's like you just slapping him in the face man HT how you doing Brett I'm a little upset cuz chil's taking my blessings away so Chile's paddling with his paddle upside down no I'm paddling with it the way that has been freaking working for me how about that uh now Brett's upset cuz he bought Chile a Gatorade and shil won't drink it well now I'm upset because Brett's upset you are you are already upset no I wasn't when we when we stopped at the boat ramp you quit trying to act like you know my emotions when we stopped at the boat ramp you got immediately upset how I'm just I'm just saying what I what I saw man that's what you think he took it all out on you cooler CH yeah so we stopped and got resupplied on some ice for the cooler and and uh that really made Chile mad this is what all right guys here's the paper mill we've heard a lot about this paper mill in Jessa and apparently they discharge a lot of waste into the Altima Hall here so we're really going to see if uh if we see a change in the river here we've heard that uh that this discharge does impact the river so we'll see here soon we'll keep you guys posted treated industrial Wastewater well it's all good they got a permit what treated and industrial Wastewater they got a permit though yeah I wonder what it would take to get a permit to dump millions of gallons of Wastewater into a river so the interesting thing we get south of the paper mill so there was a boat ramp just north of the paper mill that had a ton of um fishermen there with boats we haven't seen a sing boat south of the paper mill until now we got one coming around the corner so definitely l a lot less activity down here which makes total sense because the smell is horrific um I do still still see some baked fish present the water's gotten maybe a little murkier but hasn't really changed color from that brownish color that we've been seeing uh along the river for the duration of our mission that looks like a permanent residence I believe you you could make do with that Chile that ain't half bad there nice spot you worked at the paper mill you could just swim right across the river of a morning and well I'd love to just sit there and smell that wouldn't you yeah I believe if I was going to live on this River like a gypsy I believe I'd find me a better spot than that it's literally the worst spot I can smell it now oh yeah I can smell it now too I mean that is woo that's rank woo yeah that's rank they just sit there and smell that gosh Lord have mercy that freaking thing stinks son I feel polluted already I wonder if how the water sing gosh oh that burns your nostrils I got to get down stream of this song gun that song gun is ranked son yeah I I can taste it in the back of my throat good gosh that'll about make you cute that's the smell coming off of that paper mill guys what we're talking about it's literally so strong it almost will make you nauseous and uh and it's burning the back of my throat as I breathe it in so that's some pretty powerful uh stink right there we got to we got to make some way and get out from around that son of a gun I can't stand a sunny rainy day and here we are with some Sunny rain H I'm starting to to understand how this River earned its nickname the little Amazon because we've gotten into a section here we're at 18 about 18 and 3/4 on day four and this is some remote jungle looking stuff the river's tightened up uh it's not near as wide as it was the flows picked up and it's got Big Timber all along the banks pretty epic change of scenery here hey big Cut Bank on the left side that's not very typical either you guys can see it pretty tight in here easy paddling great current came through some sections today just south of Jessup and they didn't give up miles easy big wide sections stop paddling you just sit still this has a very unique feel to it I guess Chile has fell slap out of his bottom end he's not even in sight right now I guess we need to wait on him and make sure he didn't flip his boat over again last time I saw him he was trying to pee and he was looking a little shaky so dude it's day five man it's day five day five before we break down uh day four Camp I wanted to make sure to give you guys a opportunity to see it getting ready to head out in the morning I know it's not tided up Chile's about to get on it uh tidying all this up and Chile and I slept under our bug Nets under the group tar because mosquitoes are horrific out here and um we got our drop to the water down here Brett's over here on the side and we found these things last night yeah we were walking around in here Barefoot until we weren't there's camp day four camp today is day five well ladies and gentlemen you've missed quite a bit today on day five because the battery life in a uh GoPro sucks so I spent all morning uh charging the batteries for this thing um so it's day five we are 6 and 1 half miles in been on the water for an hour and 50 minutes it's been an amazing section of River today as usual uh a couple of things the river has changed significantly here yet again it just continues to change man every 10 15 miles there's something different about it that's what it never gets old I could do this for a long long time once we passed uh Jessup in the paper mill yesterday something that's crazy uh is now we are 20 miles down river from that Mill you can still smell the the chemical smell of the meal I don't know if it's in the water or if when the the wind shifts just right that we can smell it on the air I I can't quite figure it out but it's pretty astounding um Chile flipped his boat over again today uh he took a pretty hard spill he got into some trees on the bank some Fallen trees blowdowns and uh went to reach for a limb capsized he popped up out of the water clinging to his boat sucking wind I think he took down a mouthful of uh of this of this water a lung full probably and uh he ended up getting his boat back right side up he lost both his fishing poles his favorite hat and no telling what else all his gear is completely soaked so he's had a rough morning um but man we got some good laughs out of [Applause] it he had is capsized again ladies and gentlemen what capsized you I saw you were in the trees but how did you go over for real man I said I don't know were you reaching were you reaching for something again no I should have been reaching for my ass hey screw you all right so what you were just oh you were just practicing your dump boat drill your boat your inside of your boat must have been a little muddy like mine see how muddy Chile was just cleaning out the floor of his boat everything on my boat is is functioning well gear is good I've kind of settled in with how I have stuff set up and um I'm loving it man I'm loving it so we're going to try to hit our 20 mi today all right here's y'all's official gear class since br said people like to know how we have gear set up I'm going to go over my boat real quick from front to back and show you how I'm set up so on the front I've got my hyper light pack this has got my my tent um my personal hygiene items uh books journals all that is inside the pack these packs are not actually waterproof we found that out they're water resistant uh they're made of dyema waterproof material but they have grommets on the bottom somewhere where water can leak in I've also got a few other just miscellaneous items stuffed in the outside of the pack as you can see this is strapped to the bow of the boat and it's also strapped around with one of these pulltight nylon webbing straps um I have a bow line here here on the front the rest of the B Lin's tucked up under the uh the bag I usually hang my wet clothes on this pack to dry out during the day right behind that is a dry bag with food in it which is carabiner to my hyperlight pack through that Loop right there on the bottom then I got my tackle box which is carabiner to the Food Bag so all this is secure if the boat was to flip over we're good to go you need to have have stuff in your boat secured to the boat or you will lose it if you capsize like Chile does every other day cup holder GoPro Mount they have to be toward the front of the boat or else you're going to snag them on your paddle that's why they're up there my seat it goes up and down and I have storage underneath the seat talked about this earlier this is from Granite Gear it's actually made for a canoe seat but it fits perfect on the bottom of this Jackson Kayak in there I have all of my kind of essential items that I want to access throughout the day medkit 550 cord snack cell phone water filter um just little stuff that I want to get to throughout the day that's a really great piece of Kit right there got a little bit of food there under the seat I just took that out a minute ago couple bottles of water over here I just have random stuff stuffed down in these little side pockets paddle mounted on the side I've got a tackle box there tackle box there butt pad which also helps my lower back it's just a cut piece of eggshell ground pad back here I've got a 10 L bladder full of fresh water that doesn't need to be filtered rain pants um cooler behind that back here I've got my ground pad uh sleeping bag and pillow so kind of my sleep system here Carabiner into this bungee and right underneath that I've got the grate that we cook on over the fire with a cast iron skillet there inside that same bag so from front to back that's what is in my boat day 5 15 mil 15 mil into the day I would say the river has fully recovered I can no longer smell stench of the paper mill the waters are back to normal seems the beauty of this place has fully returned Chile has went full Vietnamese out here he's headed to work his rice Patty he been sitting on that straw hat with a dirty butt for 6 days and just this morning he decided to Dawn it back on his head camp on day five Chile getting ready to dry some stuff off really don't get no better than this got a nice front porch right here got a little Shake what you got to say for yourself today Chile well day five ain't done yet we still got to eat and make it through all this this craziness man but uh today was an interesting day I fell in the river again lost my favorite Hat lost two fishing poles I uh I'm really upset that I lost that hat you know I'm not a big materials guy but that hat meant something to me mhm so that's tough and I'm also upset with myself for falling in again like a freaking idiot that's what I got to say for myself today other than that good day at least you still got that neck knife man if I don't get to kill something with that hog Buster this is going to have some blood on it by the end of this I see it that's that's that's what Chile has to say let's see what Brett's got to say about today Brett how was how was day five for you man oh you know just another easy day um there was a couple of couple of little places in the river was a little hard to paddle but other than that we we cruised for the most of the day got a good laugh early on so that made everything pretty good on Chile's the laugh was on Chile's behalf yeah he provides a lot of those the river is has taken something personally for me and Chile my sunglasses I lost yesterday meant a lot Chile's hat meant a lot mhm so we're just waiting on Chad and his little sub story when he flips or dumps well you guys know the old bull the old bull has a lot of respect for this ala Mahal River so uh we were talking about earlier how she she requires a sacrifice from all who choose to paddle the length of her Waters um but I feel like we have a mutual respect for each other so I'm not sure what she'll if anything what she'll require from me but hey we got a long ways to go and we're probably going to it's going to get interesting as we start nearing the coast tomorrow what is this day six day six I feel like we've done this before what no just pulled our Boats off of some secluded Sandy Beach the water the AAL River and embarking to some place that we've never seen not knowing what's around each being yeah dang is it Monday y all right so we're getting into some more Coastal Waters here we're just about 2 miles south of the Alam Mahal River Park that you guys just saw uh the water's brackish here may already said that but it's wide we've got decent flow and it's changing quite a bit on the banks lot of tall Coastal grasses I think this is just the beginning of the change that we're going to see as we continue to near the Atlantic Ocean Chile's pretty excited he loved the uh the little store there at the park even though he didn't buy anything he just said nothing struck him so sometimes you don't get struck I got struck by a cinnamon roll struck me hard son Brett what' you get struck by Twix Brett got struck by Twix and a pair of uh Vortex sunglasses Chile's just living that Vietnamese life [Applause] sh Chile is is really thinking hard about Mudcat Charlie's which is a restaurant on the edge of the river apparently uh about 16 miles from our current location Chili's a kind of a connoisseur of um fine dining have I ever if y'all haven't traveled with tril before you don't understand he's The Connoisseur of fine dining he he doesn't research anything except for the good places to eat that's all he's concerned about don't go off no review yeah and it don't go off of VI what do you go off of Chile it takes me a long time but I look up every restaurant within the location and I go through webites and menus what's best no well for all you aspiring kayak campers out there this is what happens when you get toward the coast and uh the tide starts coming in and you need to go out yeah it just it don't work so we're tied off to a stump we're going to eat a little lunch I think we got about 2 hours 2 hours or so till the tide is all the way in I knew this was going to happen this ain't no surprise all right so since uh I just did a review on my leapold sunglasses Brett's going to do a review on his Vortex that he got from the almahal River Park you got 30 seconds Brett these vortexes got this satin black finish on them real nice plastic you got one stainless steel screw on on each side plastic lenses really good flow with it um they fog up very easy the nose pads are very irritable but other than that man for $20 this is a gift hold on weren't they 18 they might have been1 18.99 20 with tax okay so so you're satisfied then this this this is a go-getter product right here so y'all heard y'all heard it switch from throw your Leupold glasses in the trash cuz they're going to fail and get you some vertex from the a Mahal River camp the final road crossing that we know of look at all these stupid people in their cars they could be on kayaks all right here we are at Camp night 6 we uh we were running out of time the tide is about to slack up and start coming back in again and so we found some ik right here where they control water flow into this big Wetland Marsh and this is what we got man because everything that we've been paddling by is nothing but grass Marsh no High Ground other than this dke so our dang boats are down here in this mud hole I'm going to tell you right now you step down there your knee deep in in marsh mud so we're going to set up right here on this road right here and we're going to wait for uh we're going to look at the tide chart see what happens tomorrow morning nighttime nav to the coast son give me one them headlamps like y got man 2:30 a.m. start time we had to catch the tide this morning the night sky is beautiful Chili's leading us out we're headed to the coast guys I know the phone never does the night sky justice but so beautiful tonight we're blessed to be out here it's morning so we're going to get after it you know these Waters were pirate infested waters right yeah that Blackbeard Islands right around the corner dang man man those are good ones right there buddy they are everywhere ain't they a lot one pretty big [Applause] [Applause] one [Applause] we a got to go all the way to that Lighthouse do [Applause] no this is living right here son bunch of savages out here went from a river rat to a beach bum yeah come on Land Ho the biz Mark has made landfall got us here though yeah you couldn't get here if you didn't paddle no you couldn't so there you go good Lord there's chil in his underwear good Lord there's BR he ain't shaved in seven days good Lord there's three kayaks in a
