      @@buffdaddy2032 Oh, yes, I forgot everything we say must be taken literally 100% of the time. Juxtaposition? Hyperbole for emphasis? Nope, none of those things exist in human communication. Andy could be next to a restaurant-grade kitchen, have an army of people doing prep behind the camera or be camping right by his mother's house so she can feed him, and he'd still be putting more effort than I do when it comes to cooking. That was the point of my comment, since you obviously need me to spell it out for you. Maybe try to employ a little bit of reading comprehension before calling random people suckers for no reason, little man.

    I've been sleeping in Sleeka overalls and Sleeka jacket for years. It took a bit of getting used to but now I will never go back to a sleeping bag. It is just to convenient being able to go outside the tent in the middle of the night to take care of business without getting cold and have complete freedom of movement. Additionally, the Sleeka jacket does double duty as my on track reinforcement garment, saving weight and room in the pack. Highly recommended.

    Great to see you again Andy. This video was one of the most fun to watch for me. You seem so renewed and ready to go conquer any Woodland. The sleeping bag slayed me and you calling out Temu made me do and old -Timey 1980s American fist pump! Also kudos to Temu for taking accountability for their rubbish tent and sending you a refund. Well done Temu. Looking good Andy.

    So excited to run across your channel today…AND that there are so many to watch! I love the shots you take with the foliage (mushrooms and flowers in some and stumps with beautiful moss). Your camera work and editing are really soothing. Also really good at keeping a “conversation”. Feels like I’m there.

    I bloody love these camping videos. Especially when it’s cold and passing down, like right now. I’ve never actually been camping and I really would love to to it, someday. The colder and wetter the better. Nothing like being cold and wet and then jumping in bed. Even if it is just a cozy sleeping bag.

    Great video, Andy! Next time, prep the meat rolls at home. You make sure you don’t want to touch all those jalapeños at your camp. It’s so hard to take that spice off the hands. I once touched my eyes after I thought I washed my hands well and I still felt the sting where I touched my eyes. I
