Congratulations on your incredible walking journey!! I have enjoyed each of your videos! You are a beautiful couple without even truly knowing you! Your artwork is so amazing and beautiful! So very much talent!
Both of you amaze me, but BC’s wonderful art surviving life in a backpack is also amazing! The painting of the log loading machine really surprised me, old abandoned equipment being of great interest to me! The hiking, art, etc are satisfying to watch, but the true love affair that y’all have is my favorite part of this channel! Thanks for keeping us around as you settle back in!
I can’t imagine how crazy it feels to be back! I enjoy seeing this side of thru hikes too! I know the amenities are so nice but that y’all miss the trail too! The paintings…wow - what a story they tell! Absolutely beautiful!
It is interesting to see how it goes working yourselves back into the swing of off trail life in your home and car ect. The paintings were great to see reminding of the places along the trail. I love the huckleberry one. 😊
😂😂😂😂😂😂 SHE CANT GIVE UP THE PCT HOODIE BUT THANKS SOOO MUCH FOR KEEPING US CLOSE TO YOU TWO LOVEBIRDS ❤❤❤❤STILLLL TO THINK SOME OF THIS ART SURVIVE ALMOST 2000 MILE JOURNEY IS AMAZING ,,,,,SENDING YOU BOTH SOME HUGS
Absolutely agree, Bobby has such a great style to his paintings. He lets watercolor do its thing but then brings in realism with the details! Wish I could take a lesson from him. 😍
Welcome home! Congrats on the HUGE PCT accomplishment!! You kids are awesomenessX2. Also….Love Love Love the sketches! Sooo talented! Take care of each other.❤️❤️
You two are incredible! We have been living vicariously through you on your trip. Each day, each step you've taken, we watched. As you documented your travels, you've visited place that many of us will never see. Helping to fund your trip, and your life through your paintings and writings is a great idea! Best wishes on your fantastic adventures, and life!
Bobby, your watercolors are SO GREAT! What a better record of the trail than a photo! As an artist this is so inspiring to me in all the ways. (A long time jewelry artist but an aspiring painter!)
Bobby, for the auction, I think you should specifically call out the paintings done on-trail vs in-studio. The on-trail ones should command a premium. I know you guys need to generate an income, but I hope you'll keep some of the on-trail originals for yourselves! For the painters among us, a bit in the book about the paints you took pigments and all that jazz), brushes, etc. would be fun to know (this might be in an early vlog...I need to backtrack to the beginning).
@@libraryfiles4470 Haha! I love that shirt. It’s very strange to see her in her everyday at home attire. Haha!! Her trade-mark…Strong as heck! Wears a green hooded sun shirt 24/7🤣🤣 but she does wash it occasionally😆
Your artwork 🎨 are like photos of your adventures time-line on PCT!!! Very well done!!! Time ⌚ to get STUFF like the rest of us!!!😅 Good luck 🤞 and have fun!!!😅
Wow, pre-order submitted. This is incredible work. Supporting your book is the least we can do after you let us in on your PCT journey. This book will be your memories but also ours as we followed along. Thank you!
Fantastic stuff. Very beautiful. You are really talented. Now the work begins putting your life back together. Good luck. Must be fun to find stuff you forgot you owned.!!! Best.
.. I'm sure being home is comfortable and calm ,, but so different ... Wow ,, so much art work , and so very good .... what a talent to have .... Aligning in order of the hike ,, reminiscing of moments along the trail ,, physical memories for self and others ....
I know that weird feeling of being home after a long trip away. It begins to feel like the trip was a dream - You beautiful book with be that reminder of the amazing experience you created together. I preordered the book when you first posted about it on trail and seeing so much of Bobby's artwork all together heightens the anticipation.
As incredible as the paintings 🎨are, I felt it was even more awesome to see Bobby paint parts of them on utube. (I’m not an artist) . You both are very talented.
Love Bobby’ s paintings!!! I definitely want some of the prints when they are ready:) I love the profile ones of Suzie and those gray and white ones with all the fog/mist vampire? Paintings? So beautiful. I bought my first watercolor set this weekend:) I’m awful but it’s fun! I’m going to preorder the book. ❤️
Would you be willing to make some of those beautiful paintings into greeting cards to sell along with your book etc? Followed you all every step of the way! Congratulations again on your completion of the PCT!🥳🎉
Wow the paintings are gorgeous! Just beautiful and what a story they tell😊. I hope you both do the CDT next year 😅! Well wishes to both of you and hoping your adjusting to civilization goes smoothly 😊
Hey Birdcall and Bossbae (Bobby/Suzi) I have watched every one of your vlogs. Your journey was amazing. I am so proud for you to have completed the AZT and the PCT. It was surreal and I was so inspired by your fortitude, determination , commitment, sacrifices, and most of all your obvious love for each other. You complement each other so well! Happy 20 anniversary. What an experience you will never forget. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Much love to both of you! I’m sorry I never commented before but I usually watch on my TV, not my phone. I love love love Bobby’s artwork. I would like to purchase one of the originals on Boujee and then gift it to him. Can we work something out? How could I talk to you personally about this. I would also like to purchase one for myself but will wait to see them displayed. I don’t know how you can part with any of the originals. But I’m glad they are for sell. I would also like the book but I’ll go to your website for that. Thank you. And bless you as you acclimate back to the real world.
Hello! Thank you so much for following along. It’s been such a special experience share it with y’all. Email us suzieriedel@gmail.com I’m pretty sure we’ve been in touch but just in case. 🫶🫶 Thank you again!
Looking for my favorite painting will have to wait for it to show up on your website. It was trees...I am not sure if they were ponderosa's or something else...but they looked like ponderosa's.
@@TravelWritePaint Please do. ♥🏔I live in western Washington and collect Mt Rainier paintings and would love to have a original watercolor to add to my office wall.😄
Did the trail outfits grow stuck on your bodies? I know you get dirty on such a long hike but not that the clotges would stick :) :) :) Or are you afraid you are unrecognizable if you change clothes? You will still be Bosbae Zuzy and Birdcall Boby. I'm still wondering if you will ship your book to Europe and if you have any idea about the ebd cost. I would love to have the book but have not dared to try to do the pre-order since I don't know if I can get it or if it will be way too expensive for me in the end. All those delicious abd desirable paintings do mean it will be expensive. Have a great lazy day!
😂😂😂 they may have. Yes, all of our things were in storage. Thank you so much for following along 🥰. You can place a deposit down for the book on our website RiedelGallery.com. It’s only $25 bucks and all preorders will include a watercolor print. The final cost of the book should be around $40-$60 not including shipping. We’ve shipped overseas before and it’s typically around $25 bucks. We’re working to get it edited now. Hope that helps! 🫶🫶
Incredible art work! Hoping somme will be in book. Will you announce when it’s ready. I did preorder. I can’t imagine how much work that was trying to keep everything dry and safe.
Beautiful artwork! (I can barely draw stick figures.). Am curious, did you know/watch Roadrunner’s videos where she was trying so hard to find you after she completed PCT?
What will Bobby do with the paintings of people? For example, will he give the painting of his nephew to Scout (forgot his name)? Or does Bobby sell it like any other piece?
Isn't it a shock to the system to see the stuff we have been supporting in our day to day? It's just what people do in these times. Simplicity is such a gift from trail/wilderness life but it isn't something that most people get to experience. After your hike I'd say that it is pretty well anchored in you guys now. Integrating the two realities now, the simplicity and the world we live in daily. It is a big deal. You are doing the steps, well done. ❣The paintings are incredible.
Congratulations on your incredible walking journey!! I have enjoyed each of your videos! You are a beautiful couple without even truly knowing you! Your artwork is so amazing and beautiful! So very much talent!
Yes!!! We did it!!! 🤣 now we just have to get the book publishing!! 🤣

Thank you! We appreciate your kind words. Happy to have you along 🥰
Love seeing you transitioning and your real life. Can’t wait to get my book copy! But most importantly highly anticipating future adventures💜
Yes! And yes!! 🥰
I can’t imagine how crazy it feels to be back! I enjoy seeing this side of thru hikes too! I know the amenities are so nice but that y’all miss the trail too! The paintings…wow - what a story they tell! Absolutely beautiful!
It feels so crazy. Thanks for following along 🥰
My god Bobby, you are so beautifully talented!!! If you ever teach a watercolor class, I’m coming from Chicago to take it! Welcome home you two ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😀 🐦⬛🎵
Beautiful paintings ❤

@@judybonnaure2595 Now there's an idea for another income stream! Digital classes can easily be arranged around a hiking schedule 😊
Thank you so much 😀
Wow the paintings are amazing- a true reflection of what is inside!! You too, Bossbae! You guys are awesome! 🥾🥾⛺️🥰
Thank you so much 🤗
What a Wonderful PTC Calendar these paintings would make. Sign me up for 2 copies (one for home, one for work) let’s go.

Bobby’ art is amazing, thanx for sharing. I’m looking forward to a portfolio! I’m blown away at his talent and skill. I’m out of superlatives.
I totally agree! 🥰
Too funny! You are still wearing your sun hoodies in the house!
It’s like my safety blanket 😂😂
Bobby, your watercolors are SO GREAT! What a better record of the trail than a photo! As an artist this is so inspiring to me in all the ways. (A long time jewelry artist but an aspiring painter!)

Not only did you manage to complete the PCT but you also managed to create a ton of beautiful art with a story behind them. Y'all are awesome!
Thank you 🥰🥰🥰

Great idea about an auction instead of just buying on a first come first serve basis
Agreed! Great idea. Thank you.
After hiking you realize how little you really need to live. I am sure you felt overwhelmed seeing everything in storage.
Yes! I just wanted to throw it all away 😅😅
Those paintings!
Lovely art.
Woman, change your shirt already, LETS GO!

Thanks so much! Yes, all will be in the book 😊. Definitely, we will announce when it’s finished!
Did I heard: „Next backpacking trip“? Do tell.
Yes! Appalachian Trail May 2025!!!
Not sure yet how the storm will change that. We will decide in the new year 🫶
PS I meant 10th anniversary!!!
🥰🥰❤️❤️
I had wonder if Birdcall had done a self portrait and was pleased to see he had. Will all the pictures be in the book or just a selection?
They will all be in the book! 🥰
Beautiful artwork! (I can barely draw stick figures.). Am curious, did you know/watch Roadrunner’s videos where she was trying so hard to find you after she completed PCT?

Yes! We’ve kept in touch with Roadrunner. I’m sorry she missed us!
What will Bobby do with the paintings of people? For example, will he give the painting of his nephew to Scout (forgot his name)? Or does Bobby sell it like any other piece?
Typically he gives the people a print for sure!! Like Scoutt and Frank the archangel. The originals will be for sale like all the originals 😊
You gotta keep them and just sell the prints....
For yourselves ❤.... that's your PCT hike pics 😢....
Yes. For sure! 🥰
