Thank you brother, this is absolutely outstanding. I share with my groups because we all need skills. Sharing your knowledge your skills with your son, OUTSTANDING JOB!!!
I remember camping with my son, I would do anything for those days again. Never would have dreamed he would die at 20 fuckin years old. Hold your kid close and love him like there is no tomorrow dude.
Just remember that your actual followers love your videos and all these negative comments come from angry envious people who wish they could have a successful UA-cam channel. Keep up the great work and kudos for bringing your son along.
You have every reason to be proud of your son. Divorce negatively impacts everyone, but things will improve mostly because of his outstanding character and yours.
@MilitaryBronyforlife go every chance you get.. My dad has been gone 10 years, lost my mom 4 years earlier. Wouldn't take back any time I spent with them. Miss them soooo much!
I've always wished my father and I would've done more of this when I was younger but there was never the time.. and now it's just a struggle to do without others taking the father son aspect out of it
Hey corporal, yesterday was the ten year anniversary of my dad's death (also a former corporal in the Marines) from health complications stemming from the camp Lejeune water contamination. I was about your son's age when he passed, and I just wanted to say it's great to see the two of you out there teaching, being taught, and just enjoying your time together. Those are the memories that last.
After reading thru the comments I surprisingly saw negative comments. How can anyone Have a problem or see something wrong with a Father spending quality time with his son. Teaching him life skills..KEEP DOING WHAT YOURE DOING ..HE WONT FORGET THE TIMES OR THE EXPERIENCES
It would be seriously cool A.F. if you guys were to do the final video of him just showing what he learned as if he were out solo camping. Even let him cook, corporal style.
As a parent of a teenager that I get to see infrequently, I applaud your effort to be a positive influence. I try to do the same. I hope for both you and I that our kids look back at their experiences someday with joy and appreciation. It's hard. God bless you!
The best part of this video is you spending quality time with your son. This is exactly what most American kids are missing, quality time with Dad. Keep up the good work. Semper Fi.
Just drag them there, after the first day of being pissed off because you took thier phone off them there is no Internet & they can't sit in their gaming chair things will change they will feel better for being out of doors.
Shawn, what a great video! I'm also divorced and have two sons and a daughter, all of which are adults now. When their mother and I were going through the divorce, I took them on a camping/surf trip in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We had made some great memories that will last a lifetime on that trip. Seeing your son and you in the video really blessed my heart. I did not know that you were going through a divorce when I first subscribed to your channel. I'm encouraged to know that as the Lord says, "The very things meant for evil God will turn to your good and for His Glory." Stay encouraged brother!!! Semper Fi Do or Die! Aloha, Alex Rubio
I don’t know how many women are watching but I really enjoyed seeing you teach your son bushcraft and how to be a man. The shaking of hands & a hug was great to see.👍
Former Army SGT here, (Half my life ago). As a man with 3 sons, 4 grandsons, and a grand daughter, all I can say is enjoy this time Brother, for it will go by quickly. I've taught my sons bush crafting, now I can't wait to teach my grand kids, (they're all toddlers right now). Before I forget, nice to meet you John, AKA "Little Dude".
Sorry to hear about your broken family, that is difficult. Great to see you two redeeming the time together and doing something valuable, passing on traditional wisdom and skills that can not only add enjoyment, but maybe save your life some day. UA-camrs are no Z listers to me, they are A listers "AF". Hollywood and television are dead to me with their agendas and narratives. This is what it's all about and you have one of the best channels out there Corporal, so that makes you an A lister in my book. ATB from Canada.
Growing up without a father, I can appreciate this video. I have 3 boys all grown, and long for the day I can take them out, and camp, teach and learn ,like you and others have taught me .
"I'm gonna be like you dad, I'm going to just like you ... and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon ...". Congratulations CC on your son. Be safe.
Good work. My son is 32. He was raised in Scouting and each month we spent one weekend a month camping, backpacking, snowshoeing, XC skiing, cycling, and cooking outdoors. His first trip- he was 9 weeks old and he was carried in a front carrier on me cross country skiing at Lake Tahoe. Keep it up
Little dude you may not appreciate it but you have one badass dad. Many of us don't have father's like him. appreciate every moment. When all else fails your father will be there.
This video really hit home. My kiddos are 13 and 15. Their mother and I are divorced. We spend as much time as we can together outdoors kayaking, learning bush-craft skills, and "survival" camping. When you see the skills taught being utilized properly by your kids it truly does bring a tear to your eye. Thanks again for all you do and keep up the good work.
Hey Corp, so glad you're able to spend some time with your son. I just want to encourage you to give him all you've got.........ALWAYS. He desperately needs his Dad right now. Most importantly, while you've got him, make him a a part of your experience by allowing him to participate in the dialogue/activities. It will increase his value and worth exponentially while at the same time, expand his confidence and self worth. Lastly, God Bless Mom for giving this time and opportunity to let John grow, expand, learn to love his Dad in many ways and learn what an amazing parent he has in DAD.
This is so vitally important to the fabric of American society. Coming from someone who was raised by a single mother, I believe it takes a man to raise a man. These videos show such a beautiful, ancient rite, the passing of the torch. More often this has been lost in modern times. Being able to see this dynamic is important, so men everywhere can emulate it. To show the world what it looks like when a good man takes care of his son and teaches him what he knows, as a good man should. God bless you Shaun Kelly and God bless your family.
Nothing like Father & son time & seeing the Love of a father for his son is priceless..Teaching, building confidence & self reliance skills last a lifetime..I hope others are inspired to spend time with their sons away from video games & tv as well..I enjoyed & appreciated watching & look forward to others..Keep doing what you're doing...Great video & Great Job 👍👍👍
Funny, I have a 10 year old son named John. His mom and I are going through a divorce and I get him into the bush of Arkansas every weekend that I have him. I watch your vids because you sir, are a master chef!
Serious skill building while bonding and having great fun, these are my favorite flavor of videos. These memories will last lifetimes. Thank you for inviting us along for the adventure
Glad you stopped saying "without you I'm nothing". Because you're a father to a son that desperately needs you, and that's more important then anything or anyone else.
I don't have a son to take with me.. But I do have an elder brother living 60 miles from me.. We did loads of outdoorsy stuff as kids.. Then 20+ yrs later in 2007 we started up again.. We do a trip once a month, practicing our skills, have loads of fun and laugh non stop about old times.. Precious memories made in the process.. CC is always a 3rd bro with us 👌👍🔥 🔥 🌲 🌲 🏴 🏴 🔥 🔥 🌳 🌲
Just totally outstanding AF!!! Cherish these times with u'r son sir, u just don't know what life can throw at ya, don't know how much time u have. Lost my son unexpectedly a year ago to suicide. There's a hole that will never be filled again, but we did so many things together its helps me to carry on when I feel like I can't.
You’re knocking it outta the park! Brings back memories with my Dad, fishing for Warmouth! Nice slabs and don’t call em Warmouth for nothing! Fighters!
So glad to see your 14 year old son to be still willing to stick around with you, doing things you both enjoy. Your son will grow up to be one fine young man. So happy for you. Be proud of yourself. You've earned it.
Hi Corporal. I've been watching your videos for a few weeks now and I love the idea of bushcraft. Once I've beaten this cancer, and I can take my kiddo out for some camping sessions, you bet I'm going to. You make an excellent instructor. Up until I started watching your videos, I didn't know you required soft wood for the bow drill. Thanks much man!
Hey Corporal. Great video, brother. Brought a tear to MY eye. I am sure many of us can relate to challenges in our lives in this 'modern' world. Happy to see your son is willing to give his dad a chance, as well. Wish you both all the best. God Bless.
Tell you what, watching this on a phone so I can’t see the expression, but when you said “Love him more than my own life” your boy looked right at ya. And I immediately thought of my own son. Just got divorced last year, shared custody, etc. Teaching my little dude how to fish and soon camping/wilderness survival. Thanks man.
Moments like these though sometimes dull and maybe even painful are what is remembered over the years. I will always remember those brutal nights as a kid when my pops would sit me down and read to me and explain the text(it’s old Chinese textbook written in prose and rhyme dictating codes of conduct in family, business, soldiering, and governance). He shared what he could and I am grateful for it.
Outstanding I wish I could give this a million likes and views. Divorce can be hard for kids but having the outdoors and a great dad for a healthy outlet are just what the doctor ordered. Great job by your son cant wait to see more.
Showing the boy the tricks of the trade. Love it! These days survivalist skills are everything. It is better to learn now before truly needed. Those burgers...👍
First of all, allow me to say how much I appreciate you and what you do here on UA-cam. Because of these videos, I have had a rekindling of my desire to go back to the outdoors again. Due to medical issues over the last several years I have been unable to, but now I'm going to retry thanks to you. I also think I'm going to try the Pathfinder basic class this fall. That being said, I would like to say something of a more personal nature. Because we see these videos, many of us think we know you which I know is untrue. But your willingness to bring us into your life is absolutely amazing. The picture you showed of your son and you when he was very young was an incredible sight and very profound. Thank you for sharing that with us. Thank you very much. Thank you for sharing your time with him with us
Outstanding video! I’ve been teaching my 11 year old daughter basic bushcraft skills and she loves it. I also took her fishing the last time I had her and she loved running lines.
I taught my niece to start a fire with my firesteel, she loved it so much I bought her one from Walmart and now she's put herself in charge of starting the fire in our woodstove
ANOTHER GREAT ADVENTURE! THAT NOT SO LIL MAN WILL BE A SURVIVAL INSTRUCTOR BEFORE I COLLECT SOCIAL SECURITY, I'M OVER SIXTY! TAKING MY GRANDSON TURKEY HUNTING IN SOUTHERN IOWA IN A COUPLE DAYS. LIKE YOU, I LIVE FOR IT! HE IS ONLY TWELVE BUT SO SMART! PROUD PAPA. AS ALWAYS THUMBS UP AF!
Brings up great memories of me n grandpa. I understand all to well the various types of separation that occur in the journey of life. Awesome that you and your son are doing this together. Keep doing what you are doing. Semper fi ! Freedom not Fear.....
OUTSTANDING FATHER AND SON SHOW !! LIKE FATHER/LIKE SON !! I WISH I HAD A FATHER LIKE YOU GROWING-UP !! YOUR THE COOLEST FATHER IN THE WORLD !! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOUR FULL TIME UA-cam SUCCESS !! YOU DESERVE IT !! YOUR PASSION, LOVE OF PURPOSE, IT SHOWS !!! JUST OUTSTANDING !!
I had a divorce back in 2013. Hardest thing I have had to go through. That being said I know first hand how it feels not having my three kiddos with me 24/7. But I cherish every moment I get with um. I’ve been doing more outdoor stuff with my son and daughters thanks to your videos. The girls aren’t too big into going camping. However one daughter wants to learn the art of deer hunting, one loves to fish. My son loves to fish, enjoys going hunting with me, and likes camping in the mountains. When they get a little older maybe one of them might pick up my hobby of reloading ammo. Thank you for sharing this trip with your son. My son Austin and I enjoy watching your channel together, he loves it. Keep doing what you are doing on here brother, Corporal style!!!
Ben Chacon Where ever your interest lay, there is a good chance that your kids (male OR female) will take an interest in it, but only if you show patience and make it fun. Most fathers take little interest in their daughters. All they really want is time with their Daddy. Sounds like your doing a great job, enjoy.
It’s awesome to see you spending quality dirt time with your son. I used to do the same thing with my kids, and now with my grandkids. Teaching them lifeskills and making memories…that’s what it’s all about. Enjoy it while you can Shawn. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for this video, Corporal. My Son is ready to do some camping and I am looking forward to teaching him the old ways. I look forward to more episodes; Outstanding!
Really like watching your videos...cool about the poplar..love the way you give a way to identify and remember. Good to see your son with you, I know you're proud of him. My dad used to take us on short day hiking, fishing, campfire building, shooting guns and bow and arrow. I'm the only girl, have three brothers. That was a loooong time ago...my dad passed in 2010. I miss him, he taught us so much and I'm a total tomboy...well old lady now but still love the woods, and learning new things. I'm teaching my girls now, they weren't interested until lately since everything seems to be going to hell. They know their ole mama can survive pretty much anything! Thanks bunches for your vids!
By far my favorite video. This literally reminds me just the other day me and my younger brother went camping out in the desert. Hes new to camping but shows plenty of interest. Showing him the ropes and bonding was a real wholesome experience. And not gonna lie I'm not the most season camper but your videos have helped me in many ways. Not only with my own set up but helping hone my own skills. Love your videos keep it up man.
For the next trip you two should bring the half tent for the shelter, but with a better sleep system. And black bean dinner for a lively night in the tent.
My oldest son and his 13 yr old son fish on the creek on the back side of out property, he has a utube channel of them fishing! Triple S farm and outdoors! Check it out, he has some of the other grandkids on there too! It’s small time but cool!
Shawn, nice to see your son back with you. Also I know that I have told you about my disability but in August I intend to go camping on my own in Scotland UK and try to get back into shape, ian from UK
This is a perfect video! I'm looking to teach my Son canoe and bushcraft skills so he knows what to do if things go sideways in the back country. Looking forward to what comes next!

Thank you brother, this is absolutely outstanding. I share with my groups because we all need skills. Sharing your knowledge your skills with your son, OUTSTANDING JOB!!!
Enjoy the time with Big Man!!! Err Kill.
RAH!
Way to go!!! Your son will have so many good memories and he has a very cool dad!!!❤️this is lady from California 😘✌🏼
Your son is a very lucky kid.
Agreed
Definitely
Skills passed down from Father to Son. Society needs more of that.
Love that you get to spend quality time with your son and to teach him life skills
I remember camping with my son, I would do anything for those days again. Never would have dreamed he would die at 20 fuckin years old. Hold your kid close and love him like there is no tomorrow dude.
❤
If there were more Dad's like you, the world would be a much better place. Well done, Marine. MMC(SS) USN Ret.
Just remember that your actual followers love your videos and all these negative comments come from angry envious people who wish they could have a successful UA-cam channel. Keep up the great work and kudos for bringing your son along.
Great episode, Brother. The world needs more Dads, like yourself. 🇺🇸
You have every reason to be proud of your son. Divorce negatively impacts everyone, but things will improve mostly because of his outstanding character and yours.
There's nothing like camping with your son. Mine is 35 now and we try to camp together when ever he has some time off from work.
@MilitaryBronyforlife Just make sure he knows you love him. That's all a father wants.
@MilitaryBronyforlife go every chance you get..
My dad has been gone 10 years, lost my mom 4 years earlier. Wouldn't take back any time I spent with them. Miss them soooo much!
Some of us can't even afford an annual frog gig night with an entire family.
I've always wished my father and I would've done more of this when I was younger but there was never the time.. and now it's just a struggle to do without others taking the father son aspect out of it
“I love him more than myself.” That is profound. Corporal Kelly. Strength and honor.
Sweet , keep up the great work you show us all. Especially with your son.
Best way to spend time with family!
I like the old saying, "Take your child hunting instead of hunting your child." Thanks for all the great videos.
Hey corporal, yesterday was the ten year anniversary of my dad's death (also a former corporal in the Marines) from health complications stemming from the camp Lejeune water contamination. I was about your son's age when he passed, and I just wanted to say it's great to see the two of you out there teaching, being taught, and just enjoying your time together.

Father and Son the best team ever!!!!
After reading thru the comments I surprisingly saw negative comments. How can anyone Have a problem or see something wrong with a Father spending quality time with his son. Teaching him life skills..KEEP DOING WHAT YOURE DOING ..HE WONT FORGET THE TIMES OR THE EXPERIENCES
jealous trolls and youtube fakers
When y'all hugged it brought a tear to my eyes
It would be seriously cool A.F. if you guys were to do the final video of him just showing what he learned as if he were out solo camping. Even let him cook, corporal style.
As a parent of a teenager that I get to see infrequently, I applaud your effort to be a positive influence. I try to do the same. I hope for both you and I that our kids look back at their experiences someday with joy and appreciation. It's hard. God bless you!

I don't think my 14 year old would be interested enough to go. Mad respect for your boy and to you for wanting to include him.
You'll never know until you ask him. Show him some of the videos. You might just be surprised!
Just drag them there, after the first day of being pissed off because you took thier phone off them there is no Internet & they can't sit in their gaming chair things will change they will feel better for being out of doors.
Shawn, what a great video! I'm also divorced and have two sons and a daughter, all of which are adults now. When their mother and I were going through the divorce, I took them on a camping/surf trip in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We had made some great memories that will last a lifetime on that trip.
Seeing your son and you in the video really blessed my heart. I did not know that you were going through a divorce when I first subscribed to your channel. I'm encouraged to know that as the Lord says, "The very things meant for evil God will turn to your good and for His Glory."
Stay encouraged brother!!!
Semper Fi Do or Die!
Aloha,
Alex Rubio
Only one thing to say to your son.... OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to see more content with you and your son!!
Every parent can relate to you watching your son sleep.
I like your father and son videos
I don’t know how many women are watching but I really enjoyed seeing you teach your son bushcraft and how to be a man. The shaking of hands & a hug was great to see.👍
Man I love the father son dynamic. Makes me sad I don’t have kids 😢
Doesn't get much better than father/son camping/fishing... Outstanding!
Like the way you praise your son. Great example for others
That’s what it’s all about. Passing it on to the next generation
Former Army SGT here, (Half my life ago). As a man with 3 sons, 4 grandsons, and a grand daughter, all I can say is enjoy this time Brother, for it will go by quickly. I've taught my sons bush crafting, now I can't wait to teach my grand kids, (they're all toddlers right now). Before I forget, nice to meet you John, AKA "Little Dude".
Sorry to hear about your broken family, that is difficult. Great to see you two redeeming the time together and doing something valuable, passing on traditional wisdom and skills that can not only add enjoyment, but maybe save your life some day. UA-camrs are no Z listers to me, they are A listers "AF". Hollywood and television are dead to me with their agendas and narratives. This is what it's all about and you have one of the best channels out there Corporal, so that makes you an A lister in my book. ATB from Canada.
Gotta love the Corporal Style hair in the old picture with the baby dude. Outstanding!
Growing up without a father, I can appreciate this video. I have 3 boys all grown, and long for the day I can take them out, and camp, teach and learn ,like you and others have taught me .
Great to see Big Dude back. Enjoy each other's company and have fun.
"I'm gonna be like you dad, I'm going to just like you ... and the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon ...". Congratulations CC on your son. Be safe.
Good work. My son is 32. He was raised in Scouting and each month we spent one weekend a month camping, backpacking, snowshoeing, XC skiing, cycling, and cooking outdoors. His first trip- he was 9 weeks old and he was carried in a front carrier on me cross country skiing at Lake Tahoe. Keep it up
;') That inserted baby picture brought a tear to my eye. I'm really enjoying your videos. Well done.
Man! This is one of the greatest, sweetest things you can ever observe. A good man spending quality time with his son. Ooorraahhhhhh!!!
Your boy sounds just like you, but younger. So awesome you're doing this together! Quality time at its best.
God bless you Corporal and your son God bless good kid
There is no stronger bond than a father and son. Real men raise, teach and learn from their kids.
I love my son with all my heart and soul!!! Seeing you with your son only makes me want to be a better dad !!!!!!!
Little dude you may not appreciate it but you have one badass dad. Many of us don't have father's like him. appreciate every moment. When all else fails your father will be there.
I'd guess I've seen about 50 of your videos. This may be my favorite. Great to see a father bonding with his son!!
excellent vid!
great that you express your feelings about your son.
he knows you love and care for him.
👍
The Memories You Give Him Now - will last a lifetime; long after you are gone
I am happy to see him do so good with you in the outdoors
This video really hit home. My kiddos are 13 and 15. Their mother and I are divorced. We spend as much time as we can together outdoors kayaking, learning bush-craft skills, and "survival" camping. When you see the skills taught being utilized properly by your kids it truly does bring a tear to your eye. Thanks again for all you do and keep up the good work.
Hey Corp, so glad you're able to spend some time with your son. I just want to encourage you to give him all you've got.........ALWAYS. He desperately needs his Dad right now. Most importantly, while you've got him, make him a a part of your experience by allowing him to participate in the dialogue/activities. It will increase his value and worth exponentially while at the same time, expand his confidence and self worth.
Lastly, God Bless Mom for giving this time and opportunity to let John grow, expand, learn to love his Dad in many ways and learn what an amazing parent he has in DAD.
Corp, thank you for this , you just showed a different side a lighter vulnerable human side. What a great dad!!!
That Primus is such a good stove. I've had mine for years and still love it. Makes that morning cup of Joe and thing of oatmeal so easy.
It’s about time we had a corporals cookbook!!!

Funny, I have a 10 year old son named John. His mom and I are going through a divorce and I get him into the bush of Arkansas every weekend that I have him. I watch your vids because you sir, are a master chef!
Now I'm imagining the Corporal cooking burgers in Mjolnir power armor. 😆
Serious skill building while bonding and having great fun, these are my favorite flavor of videos. These memories will last lifetimes. Thank you for inviting us along for the adventure
Glad you stopped saying "without you I'm nothing". Because you're a father to a son that desperately needs you, and that's more important then anything or anyone else.

Congrats on having your son for the rest of the summer. It is good to see father an son having fun.
I had ulcers for 16 years when I got my divorce my ulcers disappeared in 3 months, good to see you with your son. Good video!👍😀🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
Good to see you out with your son, I know he is enjoying spending time with his dad so important.
Building awesome memories for you and your son! Another great video Brother!
Camping with your kids is one of the most satisfying things in life.
Awsome guys good job, little dude be proud of your dad.
Outstanding video! I’ve been teaching my 11 year old daughter basic bushcraft skills and she loves it. I also took her fishing the last time I had her and she loved running lines.
I taught my niece to start a fire with my firesteel, she loved it so much I bought her one from Walmart and now she's put herself in charge of starting the fire in our woodstove
Love all your vids but this one hits home I love taking my son out and teaching him skills
I know what you are going through. I've been there. Anytime with your children is precious. Good job Corporall!
I'm new to your channel and I must say. Your son is lucky to have you in his life. I've been binging all your videos! Thanks for the tips and lessons!
Love these with your son. You must be so proud! Bushcraft skills are a lost art! Keep up the good work!

Brings up great memories of me n grandpa. I understand all to well the various types of separation that occur in the journey of life. Awesome that you and your son are doing this together. Keep doing what you are doing. Semper fi ! Freedom not Fear.....
OUTSTANDING FATHER AND SON SHOW !! LIKE FATHER/LIKE SON !! I WISH I HAD A FATHER LIKE YOU GROWING-UP !! YOUR THE COOLEST FATHER IN THE WORLD !! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOUR FULL TIME UA-cam SUCCESS !! YOU DESERVE IT !! YOUR PASSION, LOVE OF PURPOSE, IT SHOWS !!! JUST OUTSTANDING !!
I had a divorce back in 2013. Hardest thing I have had to go through. That being said I know first hand how it feels not having my three kiddos with me 24/7. But I cherish every moment I get with um. I’ve been doing more outdoor stuff with my son and daughters thanks to your videos. The girls aren’t too big into going camping. However one daughter wants to learn the art of deer hunting, one loves to fish. My son loves to fish, enjoys going hunting with me, and likes camping in the mountains. When they get a little older maybe one of them might pick up my hobby of reloading ammo. Thank you for sharing this trip with your son. My son Austin and I enjoy watching your channel together, he loves it. Keep doing what you are doing on here brother, Corporal style!!!
Ben Chacon Where ever your interest lay, there is a good chance that your kids (male OR female) will take an interest in it, but only if you show patience and make it fun. Most fathers take little interest in their daughters. All they really want is time with their Daddy. Sounds like your doing a great job, enjoy.
great bonding..outstanding...awesome video...tear in my eye...u done great...keep it up...respect..best of the best...from Singapore...
I never clicked on a video so fast🤣
It’s awesome to see you spending quality dirt time with your son. I used to do the same thing with my kids, and now with my grandkids.
Teaching them lifeskills and making memories…that’s what it’s all about. Enjoy it while you can Shawn. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for this video, Corporal. My Son is ready to do some camping and I am looking forward to teaching him the old ways. I look forward to more episodes; Outstanding!
Really like watching your videos...cool about the poplar..love the way you give a way to identify and remember.
Good to see your son with you, I know you're proud of him.
My dad used to take us on short day hiking, fishing, campfire building, shooting guns and bow and arrow. I'm the only girl, have three brothers. That was a loooong time ago...my dad passed in 2010. I miss him, he taught us so much and I'm a total tomboy...well old lady now but still love the woods, and learning new things. I'm teaching my girls now, they weren't interested until lately since everything seems to be going to hell. They know their ole mama can survive pretty much anything! Thanks bunches for your vids!
Great Scott, The 1950 Sports Almanac!
I'm glad they didn't run into Biff!
By far my favorite video. This literally reminds me just the other day me and my younger brother went camping out in the desert. Hes new to camping but shows plenty of interest. Showing him the ropes and bonding was a real wholesome experience. And not gonna lie I'm not the most season camper but your videos have helped me in many ways. Not only with my own set up but helping hone my own skills. Love your videos keep it up man.
Great video Shawn, enjoy the time with your son, it goes by so fast.
For the next trip you two should bring the half tent for the shelter, but with a better sleep system. And black bean dinner for a lively night in the tent.
My oldest son and his 13 yr old son fish on the creek on the back side of out property, he has a utube channel of them fishing! Triple S farm and outdoors! Check it out, he has some of the other grandkids on there too! It’s small time but cool!
Shawn, nice to see your son back with you. Also I know that I have told you about my disability but in August I intend to go camping on my own in Scotland UK and try to get back into shape, ian from UK
This is a perfect video! I'm looking to teach my Son canoe and bushcraft skills so he knows what to do if things go sideways in the back country. Looking forward to what comes next!
