Been with you the whole time Cat. It's been a good 5 years. I'm here because of what you do. The videos are hardly ever about you. It's about what you see and how you share it. It's about how we get to see what you see through your lens. You're doing all the work. And when you step out in front of the camera, rather than being the star, you are but another one of the beautiful features that we are seeing through the lens of our life. It's like you're part of the story, and part of the scenery but not the main focus. I love it.
Thank you so much Larry! 🙏🙏
For me, it is absolutely awesome when Joey catches you, when you think you are off camera.
There is a whole other dimension to your videos when he catches you like that.
It is like a window opens and there You are, the real you, not the camera ready you...
You actually come alive and it is truley beautiful.
It is like when a great director of film catches an instant in time and...mastery.
Joes is the mirror that catches that moment and you are the beautiful subject of that moment.
They are rare in your videos and in film, but are the bits of stardust. ❤
Love that Joey is traveling with you.
Happy birthday Cat! My favorite thing to do on a Sunday morning, as I sip my coffee, is watch your beautiful videos.
I plan my Sunday Breakfast to watch your Adventures,,, Happy Birthday Cat,,,
Happy birthday Cat. Whatever you decide to do in the future will work out. Always enjoy your videos. Gods blessings to you and Joey.
Joey was ur injection! So happy u have a friend to share all of this beauty and adventure! Makes a difference. Been following you since the beginning!
😂
If this trailer is ah rockin'....don't come ah knockin'.....
Here's a suggestion, Cat: think about working for the U.S. Nat'l Park Service during summer seasons. Having a trailer is an advantage, since many parks have a low inventory of housing available (cabins or dorms). Some Seasonal workers work summer seasons in one park and work winters in another, and a trailer helps for park Superintendents to house you (many have full hookups for NPS employees). Best wishes!
Unlevel your trailer a little bit. Side/to side.
That may help with the leak.
So glad Joey made it back. A very brave, adventurous man. Be safe out there.😊😊😊😊
Mount Robson is almost always obscured by clouds. I’ve passed it countless times, always with a camera, and only once was the peak visible. It makes its own weather.
That is the strange thing about the mountains. One area can be socked in completely but go a small distance and find totally different weather. Like a bunch of different systems rather than just one big one.
@@markpashia7067 I’ve been to Robson on a blue sky day, the peak shrouded in cloud - and nothing else is cloudy. Because it is snow capped year round (so far…) it literally makes its own weather.
Happy Birthday Catherine!! Thank you for all the beauty you share.
Happy B-Day Catherine ! Living on the road in your trailer has it's pros and cons but you will have a lifetime of fabulous memories which will last forever.
Definitely! Thank you!
@@CatherineGregoryAdventuresHappy Birthday Catherine Your My Favorite 😊
More of that beautiful Canadian scenery. Thanks!
If you ever need to replace the tongue jack, they make electric ones with a manual connection. That way if you have electric issues you can manually crank the jack up or down.
You will never be lonely with a 🐕 however a 🐕 cannot climb on the roof and tape up roof damage 😊
…and you cannot train a dog to poop in a bucket/bag.
One thing to remember is that land and animals can really tie you to one spot. Look deeply before deciding. I prefer renting with outside taken care of so I can up and go anytime rather than have to arrange for lawn care and people to watch over a place when I go. But I also miss having space to breath without seeing neighbors too. Life is often compromise.
Happy anniversary. I imagine it is nice to have a good friend along, hi Joey. Happy Birthday!
So happy you are here and Joey is with ya! Such a beautiful area. Safe travels always.
Happy, happy birthday Cat. I have been a big fan from your very first video. You have perfected the secret sauce of UA-cam content.....skilled photo/videography, and personal authenticity. For us boomers who can no longer backpack or handle long trips you provide a most welcome, if vicarious, return to our more adventurous past. You may not have the most subscribers but the ones who have stuck around are loyal, true blue cyber friends. 😊
5 years Cat? You gotta be kidding me! WOW! Happy birthday too and don't you even dare think about quitting what you are doing!😂❤👍👏🏻🙏🏻
Happy Birthday Cat! I really enjoy your videos! Your photography and editing are excellent and the music you pick is calming and enjoyable. I also think you and Joey make a good team. Thank you and God bless.
Yay! You are in my beloved home province! I lived in Manitoba for 14 years, and have been back in Beautiful British Columbia for 10 years now. I wouldn't trade it for the world.
Wow time flies, 5 years. I've been watching you since 2020 when you had your Lance truck camper. Happy birthday and stay safe
We all need beauty and peace.
Well Happy Birthday, and I am very glad you did not quit this, your channel is one I do enjoy very much!
Happy Birthday Catherine. Walk in Beauty. Walk in Peace.
Happy birthday Cat!
Happy Birthday. My 61 was yesterday. Keep adventuring.
Happy Birthday! My 61st was June 15🎉
@@marcyv0615 Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday!!🎈 🎈🎉🎊😊
Enjoy our Beautiful Canadian Rockies!!❤
Holy cow, I can’t believe it’s been five years either, been watching since around 4k subs, when u still had a day job and took trips to the eastern Sierra on weekends… just a great reminder to live life while you can. Thanks for taking us with you all these years…❤
Thank you. I wish y’all could camp together forever.
Happy Birthday Cat, I always enjoy your videos, thank you for showing us some of the splendor of the Canadian Rockies.
As always, perfect filming, perfect music, and pure honesty from you. Thank you, Cat!
Happy birthday Cat!! 🎈😺 I can't think of a more beautiful way to celebrate your birthday, than in nature! May you have a wonderful day and enjoy. Living on the road as you do.... just stop and think of all the beautiful pictures, videos and personal experiences you have enjoyed, now that's something you wouldn't have not experienced had you not decided to get out there and live your life as you have. Those are memories no one can take away from you. Keep on doing it till you feel you've had your share, then on to your next chapter! Either way we're glad you've shared and taken us along with you on your present journey....and may they continue for as long as you want them to!! Happy trails my friend, God bless and take care. 🙏👍💕🎉🎈😺
Happy Birthday🎉
I think it’s beautiful that you have a friend like Joey!
TIP: Mobile RV techs are an amazingly valuable help for RV repairs when on the road. I’ve engaged one in multiple locations and I’ve never had a bad experience.
How time passes when you share you beautiful, informative, and enjoyable videos. I am an armchair traveler and you give me a world outside of myself. Thank you for sharing authentic feelings and honest thoughts on the road. Hang in there and keep in touch with your family and us follow "vicarious" travelers, Catherine. Keep the old base along 395 alive with your occasional presence!
I glad you didn't have to send out search and rescue for Joey.
I hope I speak for others whose physical situation prevent us from doing what you do: you open up a world of beauty and adventure and bring it to my living room. You give us a great gift. Thank you.
Been full time RVing for 6 years. I understand what you mean by community. We go to Florida in the winter at a resort for 4-5 months and I feel like I’m in a neighborhood and get to see friends I’ve met again and do other things:pickleball, bike riding, quilting, dances etc. then come March we begin traveling and following the weather again. Just staying in one place for 4 months in beautiful weather helps. We enjoy watching you.
Happy birthday, Cat! You’re in a great place to celebrate another great day. Hope you enjoy this hike.🎉
Happy birthday, Cat! I love your Sunday morning adventures. Thank you for bringing them to us.
Happy birthday Cat, I’m glad that Joey made it back safely and it is nice that he is travelling with you. I’m glad that you are still living this lifestyle. You are able to experience so many beautiful places. Hope that the leak repair helps. Don’t worry about your hair.
My camper had an electric jack screw for lifting the trailer tongue. It started to fail so I took it apart only to find the long twisty thing needed some simple grease to help it turn. Now it works fine!
Happy Birthday Catherine!!! Thank You Very Much For The Wonderful Trip to the Canadian Rockies 👍 sometimes I think you are the Luckiest girl in the world living the dream lifestyle that you do but then when I think about it, it isn't really luck at all. It took years of hard work and planning for you to achieve this adventurous lifestyle. Not something you would have come by accidentally. You are following your Heart. Going in Life where your Heart wants to go. No it isn't Luck, it's Determination. I can't Thank You Enough for taking this armchair nomad almond with you on your travels to these wonderful and Beautiful places. Stay Safe, keep posting and I'll keep watching 🙏👍🐕🦺😎
Happy Birthday, Catherine! 🎉 Can't believe it's been 5 years now. Wow. ❤ I think I've seen every video of yours. 😊 Here's to many more awesome years, either on the road or in a nice cabin in the woods away from the cities. Have fun on your backpacking trip and have a great 4th of July! 🇺🇲 -Rachel
I grew up in the country and I can’t stand living in a subdivision. I’m not wealthy so land ownership is just a dream. And happy birthday!🎉
I am a long time watcher and rarely comment but i sure hope you will continue sharing your beautiful documentation and narration of your travels. I appreciate your "lens" of how you view your locations with nature, history and helpful points to note. Went to Banff twice but never ventured west of Jasper, very beautiful. Thank you Catherine. What a beautiful place to celebrate your birthday🎉.
Thanks for the insight into some of your thoughts about road life - it’s not all rainbows and unicorns! After finding the nice scenic campsite (often hard to come by) there’s the “now what?” - there still needs to be something to do, and beyond that, a satisfaction and alrightness that overcomes the loneliness and questions “what am I doing out here exactly?” day after every single day. I appreciate seeing/hearing you work through it some in this video.
Happy Birthday 🎂🥳✨✨ love that you have Joey with you! Your videos are so beautiful and always appreciate that you take us along on your adventures. You’re living my dream. Gives me hope.
Belated Happy Birthday! I will miss your channel if and when you decide to stop, but I understand completely.
Happy Birthday! And I can’t believe I have been watching you for five years already. It’s because you’re great at showing off beautiful places. I’m happy you have a traveling friend to share it with now. Best wishes 💕🎂💕
Have a wonderful birthday Cat! Thank you for taking us all along on your adventures!! ❤
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAT! I love your channel with all the special exciting beautiful places you take all your viewers. I for one like that Joey is traveling with you because he is truly an outdoors person & the two of you seem to be having a blast exploring Canada 🇨🇦. Be safe & enjoy the world for all of us watching. ❤❤👍🏻🙋🏼♀️
You can definitely find a jack at a Canadian Tire store, Hinton would probably be your closest opportunity. I am happy your are enjoying your time in our Canadian Rockies. Stay safe, stay happy…thx for your great posts!
Happy 39th birthday again Catherine! Have a wonderful week! Beautiful video, I see why you love it there. Would love to see you visit Quebec! Could picture you with a homestead cabin in the mountains somewhere growing veggies and flowers but free to take off to visit family and roam wherever. Best wishes, safe travels!
Happy 🎂 Happy 5th anniversary on the road. Having you and Joey together is wonderful. And wherever you travel, whatever you decide, your extended family will support and follow 🎉
Cat, look up the following rv roof info: EndlessRVing you tube video Best RV RoofSystem (posted today) and look up RV Roofing Pros. Should be very helpful.
Good morning Miss Cat!! Yep, each day becomes a smaller fraction of our life!!! Five years is a blink of an eye!!!
Happy Birthday Cat! Hope you have a wonderful time on your next outing! Your videos are my Sunday treat ❤
Happy Birthday Cat! Thank you so much for sharing your adventurous life with us
Happy birthday Cat!! ❤ many thanks for all your beautiful and authentic vlogs!! 🐾🐾💚jul and family
I would really miss you If you decided to retire. Thanks for sharing all the videos. Blessings
Happy Birthday! Hope you have a great trip. I'm so glad Joey was able to travel with you. I hope you don't stop traveling anytime soon, I'd miss seeing your adventures.
Cat, thank you for your honesty and sharing all of your thoughts today, I been with you from most of you journey and have really enjoyed it. What ever you decide to do in the future I will keep watching and support this great video content. Shout out to Joey as well. You’re the best.
Another happy birthday to you Cat. Don't quit, my wife and I enjoy your content. You were born for this lifestyle 👍
I can't believe I found this hidden gem! Excited for more wisdom! - "Achievement thrives on unwavering dedication and relentless effort."
My hats off to you, to be out there for five years and five winters is something to behold, much admiration and awe. And looking forward to your 'putting yourself out there' video. I know I couldn't do it because I prefer my solitude and peace...thanks and until the next one !!
Berry season! Yum. Hope you picked your share of berry’s. LOL
Happy Birthday Catherine !! Enjoy !!!
Loving your adventures. You are the luckiest person to have the expertise of Joey traveling and hiking with you. You will miss him if he goes solo
Happy birthday Kathleen may GOD continue to bless yall love from 71-year-old Lonnie in Boling Spring Lakes N.C.
No better way to spend Sunday morning coffee with you Cat. As always, beautiful video, again your hard work shows, and WE ALL appreciate it. Thanks for taking us along, STUNNING!! And may I say your eyes at 7:11 are also very pretty. Have a great hike and Happy Birthday, Safe travels. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Catherine, i have been following your adventures, for years. If i was 40 years younger I would love to travel as you do. So from a 73 year old in the uk. Thank you for visiting places. I will never get to see. Happy travels.
Glad you are enjoying Canada. The views you post are outstanding. Take care Cat.
Cat, you are a beautiful person inside an out. Your videos are an inspiration to us. Do what is best for you. As long as you are in the road, I will look forward to your videos.
I travel in a 23 ft.motorhome, the fridge door fell off, as the plastic where the hinge pin fit, I was able to find a handy man in town, all ok now. I go to a knitting group at home and a friend said my hair looked good. I said I finally found someone to cut it like I want, me. I love your videos.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAT! LOVE YOUR EYE FOR THE BEAUTY YOU SEE AROUND YOU AND SHARE WITH US! THANKS!!
Happy Birthday, Cat! I'm still stuck in VA for the foreseeable future due to house problems, May Almighty God continue to Bless, Guard, Guide, and Protect you in your adventures. 73
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you

... WOW !! That opening scene at the river is jaw dropping ...
.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Catherine, No better place to begin a new year than out in Natures Wonder ... Stay Safe ..
Cat - thank you for sharing your light and the gift of you with us. Always, you must do what makes your heart sing! Trust, the universe will reveal her next adventure for you…it will better than you could possible imagine. Happy birthday dear one! 🎂
Happy Birthday, Cat! I hope this next year brings you daily happiness, great health, prosperity, and lots of love. You are a treasure! Good luck with your roof! ❤
Hi Cat! Simply beautiful and awesome, always look forward to seeing you and Joey. Hope you guys stay safe! Happy birthday, love you. I have been alone for over 8 years since my wife of 50 years passed, and it’s not easy in my world either. Its funny how life’s journey takes us along. Thanks for posting and sharing your life. Your friend in Pennsylvania. Bob
Thank you so much!! I'm sorry about the loss of you wife.
Happy Birthday, Catherine
We share the month of June 26th. I have been watching you for almost 2 1/2 years and i love you and your videos. I admire you very much. I hope you continue to live your life style that you do. I would miss you very much. 😊😊😊😊
Well done for five years Catherine. I would completely understand you stepping away for a while. It’s just like anything else in life, burn out happens.
I wrote down your birthday a couple of years ago. Then I lost or shredded that paper. Happy birthday, Catherine. Be safe! Hope you get the roof repaired, and don't take long to get that done. I'm happy you haven't stopped. I personally enjoy your videos! Good hunting for Joey in finding what he wants.
GREAT VIDEO,Cat.! So glad you didn’t quit. Can’t believe it has been 5 years since we met. We can see why it’s hard to leave such a beautiful place. Happy birthday! It’s also our grandson’s birthday today. Have a wonderful day!❤️❤️
Thak you John!
Happy Birthday, Cat! You’ve got the best views and company to celebrate your special day! 🎉
After 5 years I doubt quit is in you Catherine, we all go through periods of self reflection or doubt. It is part of what makes us human. Only you can choose your path.
That close up of the mountain range 1:29 into the video is breath taking. like the Gods reached down from above and haphazardly placed it there like we would our keys on the counter side ways. Would probably be at least a two cups of coffee moment for me, not sure why it struck me so.
If you quit, scenes like that will be fewer and more familiar.
Happy birthday.
Happy Birthday 🎂 I have to admit I’ll be pretty sad when you quit UA-cam. I save your videos for when I climb into bed on Sunday nights. They relax me and help me not to think about work in the morning. God bless and happy adventures 🌲
Happy birthday Kat. Happy 5th traveling anniversary. Your videos are our Sunday morning UA-cam starter. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
Thanks so much!!
Keep on keeping on
Ain't nothing to it but to do it
Yes, and Happy Belated Birthday and Happy 4th from us back home!!
Wow 5 yrs of Freedom. That must feel incredible to just go Wherever u Want Whenever u Want!!😊
Happy Birthday, Cat! The views shown are absolutely stunning! Thank you for providing such wonderful content each week. Your videography is so beautiful. We will be traveling along with you as long as you continue your channel ❤
My Sundays are not complete until I see your videos. I hope you continue making them for a long time!
Happy Birthday Catherine! I hope its a memorable one.
@officialCatherineGregoryxz what would you like to do?
Hi Mitzi! That wasn’t me that left the previous comment. It is a hacker. Please don’t reply.
Happy Birthday, Wonderful Cat! Love your life and all your adventures so much, plus the beautifully orchestrated videos, the music, the views...and most importantly, your really great personality and peaceful style. You are a very special human!😊
Still Jun 30th, A Most Happy Adventurous Marvelous Birthday to you dear Cat. So Glad Pal Joey made it out of the water and is with you celebrating your Special Day.
Happy Birthday, belated but I hope you had a wonderful time. You are an amazing woman and such a ray of light in the world. May your roads be full of adventures and your adventures be full of wonder.
Happy Birthday Cat! So glad you spent your day in a very beautiful way! I always look forward to your videos and Thank you so much for what you do.
