    What beautiful drone shots and so enjoyed the walk along the shore. You are a man after John Muir's heart. ‘Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.’ - John Muir. You seek the away spots off the busy roads also one who loves to discover what is around the next corner. Happy to get places a little slower. So much better for ones health. Thank you for taking us along.

    Robson Bight, when I was a teen and working on my dad's boat we had a killer whale momma and her baby swim by. Oh he was so cute, still pink and krinkle marks. This was back in the mid 80's when boats could still anchor there. Amazing!!

    Hey Brent, how's it going buddy. Nan and I are still watching and enjoying your videos. We usually watch on TV so it doesn't leave an option to comment but you always get your thumbs up. Sending this from my phone, glad you're doing well, take care from Man and I.

    Brent, I would love to see more close ups of sea shells, tidal pools with whatever living things are found in them. Things such as forest likens, different seaweeds and plants, interesting driftwood pieces or stones. You know, all the little things in nature that we tend to take for granted that we so often fail to take the time to appreciate their unique qualities. I love long thorough looks at such things. That jellyfish was great but needed further exploration, we don't all get to enjoy the luxury of living near a coast line. We all have noses, yet no one ever talks about the scent of the oceans, lakes or forests and how they differ from one location to the other or even by time of day. There's is so much content to be found in the simplest of details when we become more fully aware of the environment surrounding us. It's good to help people to become aware of the threats to our environment.
    I hope this is helpful to you, you did ask for feedback. ❤ 😊.

    I think that place is awesome. Becoming more popular all the time as van living becomes the reality for so many. However, there always seems to be space in the campground and flats, where the logging operation used to be to for everyone in. Yes Kevin Wald is worth following. Young guy living in a truck camper combo. Travelling western Canada, showing us what life can be like in an alternative lifestyle. Rig dwellers are an amazing, supportive community, showing the world there is another, better life to live.

    Does anything eat those jellyfish? Can you get stung by touching beached jellyfish? I know your thinking this woman asks too many questions but that's one of the things I love about you, your so knowledgeable. I love pasta and pesto, yum 😊 ❤ .

      I definitely agree with that suggestion! Seeing the bird's eye view of the area that you are camping at is amazing! It helps us to understand the surrounding area better. It gives us, the viewer, more of an estimated view point when we have the perspective from up above.

    Awesome shout out for Kevin. I've been subscribed & watching his videos for a while now! He also takes us, his viewers to remarkable areas.
    I'm so darn jealous! In a good way, lol. I just need to get out there!
    Question: how long had the tide been out? Could you tell if that jelly fish was still alive?
    (edited for missed words & grammar mistakes - yup! I think I was too mesmerized by the scenery, lol)

    It's +3C and it's been raining for 3 days, the humidity doesn't make it feel like heaven on earth to my achy joints.
    Certainly you must feel that humidity also.
    I wonder if the whales accidentally get beached while trying to satisfy an itch on the rocks?
    I guess I'm a land lover too, I just looked up the differences between dolphins and porpoises.
    Thanks to you I'm that much more knowledgeable. Thanks for the gorgeous scenery. 😊 ❤.
