    You guys are so cute. This video brought back great memories of me and my deceased husband, years ago on the Current River in MO. If I ever get to meet you, I will tell you a halarious story about that. Cody, I'm so glad you caught that big fish!!!❤❤

    This was a fun video. As I’ve commented previously, I spent my youth and young adulthood camping in Southern Missouri and Arkansas. We floated on large military surplus rafts, but so much is still the same. The rivers look unchanged (hallelujah), and we had the exact same trash bags 40 years ago. And get this: we also used Dr. Bronners soap. Your kayaks, tents, and sleeping pads are all MUCH nicer than what we had available to us. Your videos are like re-living those adventures. Thank you!

    The river kayak/camping vlogs are always my favorite. The Ozark streams here in Missouri is my get away. It's how I purge my mind. Can't believe it's June and I've not been out. So busy these days. I need to make time, I need to purge. ... Never been to the Arkansas side, but its defiantly on my to do list. The Buffalo River has been on my bucket list for years.

    I LOVE this video (can't even tell you lost half your footage!). It made me so nostalgic for one of the best summers of my life kayaking the Elkhorn Creek in central Kentucky. The scenery and water there look so similar to this! And I LOVED the upside down lifejackets part. When I was a kid and my family would go to Cave Run Lake (Kentucky!) in the summer, my cousin would put his lifejacket on over his butt just like that and call himself Diaper Boy. 🤣 So many great memories are made on the water. ❤️

  • @terencebaxter4821
    @terencebaxter4821 Рік тому

    Your Arkansas river rules are similar to Montana where the river is considered public property up to the high water mark . Colorado and Wyoming say that the private property extends into the river. So when floating the river through private property if you land on the banks or even stand in the river you are trespassing.

It is BEAUTIFUL and so much fun to kayak. If you come this way I would love to meet you. My husband and I would come up there and there is a beautiful little campground in Hardy.
