Hey Kenny here's a little something to put towards the repair budget. You absolutely don't ever ask for anything. Contributing makes me feel good, because I so appreciate your sharing these camping trips with us all.
deanb3033, I'm a total tech dummy , that being the case . . . . how did you make that contribution ? How does that even work ? Thanks , I'm 70 and all my kids are gone , they used to be my computer repair team , LOL !

Hey everyone, me and my boy challenge everyone on here to match our $25 donation, just a little support, just a little love for our friend Kenny. He does more for all of us than he could ever know, especially in this world we all find ourselves living in today, where there's just so much division. So yeah, we challenge you all match our little $25 donation. Let's all pay it forward, showing Kenney a little love from all of us. Thanks 🙏❤😊
This blows my mind!! I cannot process the support you are showing. I really appreciate it. With the donations to the channel, I will be able to get the mic replaced right away. The drone will not be far off either. Thank you so much!
I can't begin to tell you how shocked I am that you would care so much to donate such a large chunk of money. I really do appreciate your generosity. It will definitely help the channel! Thank you!
Once again Kenny, your calm easy manner is so rich in humanity. You take time to cook slow awesome ( sorry over used word-but true) meals, always taking a chance with the recipes but apparently doing it right- hey you’re still with us 😎 Anyway thanks again for sharing your beautiful state and its natural beauty!
Thanks! Thanks for the videos. It really bothers me that you are having such a run of bad luck. So please accept this donation to help cover some of your expenses. I really missed your drone footage. Because of age and health issues I can no longer camp. I live vicariously thru channels like yours.
Thank you so much. You are the person I'm talking to behind the camera. I hope I can give you the feeling of being out there with me. Thats my hope anyways. I really appreciate your support for the channel. Next time you see a drone shot you can be sure that you had a part in making that happen.
I just spent three weeks in Colorado Elk Hunting. I took my Palomino 1251. Owned it for two years and it's the first time it's been out of the garage. I found a spot to set up and across the dirt road from me moved in a huge hunting camp complete with barking dog (all day and nite) and a screaming infant that I guess the dog would wake up every night between 1-3AM. WHO goes to a hunting camp in the middle of nowhere with a unruly dog and an infant. Ohh yea AND they ran a generator every night - all night. You got lucky. Nice video.
I'm glad you're getting the camper out though. There's so much to explore, and adventuring in a truck camper has got to be one of the best ways to do it.
Here's some more. Get that mic buddy! Then focus on the drone and finally the kayak. Keep 'em coming and it's fine you're staying in Minnesota. It's beautiful and your format is very well done.
@@richardkoch8752 Of course. I don't want his content to disappear. Don't want him going the business route either feeling pressure to produce. Just keep doing what he's doing as long as the wife is fine with it. This channel is growing organically and I hope it stays that way. Enough progress to turn the dream into reality but still slow enough to enjoy the creation and results.
Hey Kenny. My wife & I enjoy your videos. Love your commentary & positive attitude. The locations you visit are awesome! We are driving up to northern MN in 2 weeks for a van camping adventure. We bought a 2012 Chevy Express cargo van a few years ago & turned it into a tent on wheels. So if you see a couple of old folks disperse camping in a white chevy van with Arkansas plates, stop by for a cup of coffee. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing!
This is great! It will definitely help. I'll be able to replace the equipment so much sooner than expected. I really appreciate the support for the channel.
I dont know how you find the time. Working full time, maintaining your home, camping and editing a video for us every week. Thanks again for doing another great video. Your absolutely amazing. Take care, next week will come with better luck.
Hey Kenny! I'm a big fan. Because of people like you my truck camper experience here in Alaska is much better. I am sporting a 2008 GMC with 290,000 miles - I have re-done essentially the entire front steering/suspension including the steering gear, idler, pitman, tie rods - wheel bearings - etc. etc. etc..... I found a seemingly too good to be true deal on steering parts on Amazon. They worked - so far. Nice and tight - saved BIG bucks. I enjoy making youtube content myself, and I am in struck by people like you that do such a nice job. I know how hard it is to film, keep batteries up, maintain devices, and then hours of trying to load content to the computer and edit. Working full time at my regular job and squeezing this in is a labor of love. I don't think I'll ever get paid for my UA-cam work - but it is fun when it all works out. And...NOT a ladies jacket! That's a man's mans jacket!
Thanks! I appreciate the compliment. You are right. Making content is a full-time job in itself. I hope one day to say goodbye to the Monday through Friday job and create content full-time instead. What's your channel? I'll have to check it out.
Kenny you give more than enough to us 💕 you don’t owe us anything and yet you continue to bless us weekly with an escape ☺️Thankyou for your commitment and all that you do, we appreciate you 🙏
Hi Kenny, good to see that despite any circumstance that come up your ways you always keep you spirit high and a good attitude. You weren't being negative when your neighbor dog came around. Now days people only care for them selves and are not considerate enough to show respect towards others privacy, the dog should have not made it to your camp site. I really enjoy watching your videos, I know one day I will be able to get out and do some of the stuff that you do but until then I will enjoy watching your videos along with a cup of coffee. Thank you for not advertising in your channel and for standing out from the rest. It's not always about making money but about what you enjoy and wish to share with others. May God bless you always.
I stumbled onto your channel somehow a month or so ago and I've almost watched them all! I live in a truck camper full time, but don't get out too much, so it's nice to go with you on all these trips no matter where you end up. Always beautiful locations and super relaxing to watch. Here is a few to show some appreciation, I know what breaking stuff feels like.
Yes.... what are you contributors using to contribute? I pay for streaming channels i barely watch. Seems like i should do the same here given how much pleasure i get out of them. "I" don't need charity😊. I would like to see fewer vegetables They scare me.
I felt the same. I had satellite TV, Netflix, Hulu and Prime Video. I would also go to the moves a couple times a year. I paid a lot of money to support the Hollywierd community. Then about 6 years ago I decided to drop all of that. Now I just watch UA-cam. When I had the means, I belonged to a few Pateron Channels. My first subscription was to Taylor Dezman. I asked myself, why I am paying over 150 bucks a month to all the mainstream television providers when real people like Taylor were busting their butt to create content I could watch for free. So, since I was not paying for television anymore, I supported the small guys like Taylor.
Thanks again Kenny. My wife and I look forward to every Tuesday about 6 pm. When we get that notification. Love your videos. And content. Keep up the great work.
For what it's worth, I really like the footage up through the trees from the bike (while the drone was out of commission). Any time I hike, I end up with pictures like that. Going with the flow and observing the bad luck then still moving forward each time is a great example for us all. It's surprising how many people never learned that skill. Also, Thanks for not running the generator out of consideration for the tent folks. I'm going to speak for us all and say "We appreciate that consideration."
I've been following your channel for a while now, and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your positive attitude, especially when dealing with all that camera equipment mishap. You're absolutely right, it's just stuff, and what truly keeps me coming back to your videos is your awesome personality and the genuine content you create. Keep up the great work, and remember, we're here for you no matter what "stuff" decides to break next!. Also - I love the jacket! It's definitely European cut! Zipper pulls are usually on the left instead of right. Looks great on you!
Thanks, Kenny. Once again, you’ve brought joy into my Tuesday evening. I’m so sorry for your run of misfortune but it will change. I’ve been around long enough to know.
Thanks Kenny. Love the content cuz you focus on enjoying your TC to the fullest by getting outdoors into remote places. Keep up the good work. Hope this helps a little.
The jacket looks great...I wouldn't worry about it😂. Super nice spot this weekend...dont beat yourself up about being negative about the folks pulling up next to ya - I am the same way. I come to the woods for solitude, not to share my dinner with your pets! 😊 I am still cracking up over your kid telling you she would kick a bears ass ...you're raising her right😂. Thanks for the great video ..see ya next week!
No better place I want to see than Minnesota camping. You've showed more than I ever knew we had here!! Good luck with the repairs, so surprised Utube punishes for a rest span, wow, but thanks for taking us along for all of Minnesota's beauty and peace.
Kenny, man you really got hit hard with the bad luck this trip. Maybe you have all the bad luck behind you now and nothing but good is on the way. I like the optimistic attitude even when things are going less than good.................my style also. Great campsite, you really found a winner there. I have to agree about the coat....I think your Brother messed with you LoL. Little something to help with equipment. Happier Trails Kenny!
We appreciate the enjoyment that you share with us on every Tuesday. The wife and I are supposed to be looking at an Arctic Fox 811S this weekend. Its almost 8 hours away so...... Our first dispersed camping trip may happen on our way home! THANK YOU!
Tom, I am so happy for you and your wife!!!!! YAY! My husband won't even think about buying a truck and camper or ANY RV. He said that he was going to buy me a brand new trailer, because he didn't want a used one, but, now he says that he can't afford it. We've both had Cancer and he doesn't want to spend the money now. So, I literally feel as if I have one foot in the grave and one foot out. 😣 Congratulations you two, I'll be thinking of you, enjoy camping! Your friend, Didi 👋
@@didibolter9362 Thank you so very much for your kind words. I am thankful that you both are still here after a Cancer diagnosis. Stay healthy and well. We will pray for your complete healing. We ended up missing out on that particular Camper BUT..... I was able to locate a Arctic Fox M-860. Ironically, It is the same model that Kenny happens to have, Just a little older. I left Maryland on a Friday night and was able to drive to Green Bay WI to go pick it up in a single weekend. We absolutely love it. We only wish that the bathroom was a tad bit bigger. Truck campers here on the east coast are pretty hard to find. We had our sights on only 3 different manufacturers. Either a Northern Lite, Bigfoot, or Arctic Fox. After a solid Year and a half..... We were finally able to find one. We are NOT campgound people. We like our space and privacy. This is why both Kenny (Kenny of all trades) and Larry from (Work less enjoy life more). Both of them are prime examples of the style of camping that we would prefer. Good luck in the future with your health and the potential of joining the camping community. We ABSOLUTELY love it.
@@tomduncan1970 Thank you Tom, we appreciate your kindness and awesome sentiments so very much! ❤❤ I'am sincerely bummed that you and your wife didn't get the truck camper that you both initially wanted, you were so excited and that excited me! 😆 🤗 🤗 But, on the other hand, we are very happy for you that you did find a truck camper that you both LOVE, and that is so SWEET! 💑 I truly LOVE that!! ❤ Take care of yourselves and each other Tom and Mrs! 💑 Thank you again for the SWEET words and sentiments, that was really thoughtful and nice of you! Your friend, Didi, and Mr. 👋 🚙🌲🔥
Hahaha! I'm a HUGE office fan. I know the episode well. I watched the office this weekend. I have the box set in the camper. There wasn't enough cell service to watch a video at bedtime...so I watched the office. Thank you for your donation to the channel. I'm still seriously contemplating Patreon. I should just do it.
Hello Kenny, You are such a cool guy.... you are also so very lucky to have so many options for camping, great equipment, the ability to use it and the ability to do many of the repairs and maintenance yourself. Thank you so much for taking us along with you on your weekend adventures. Kenny, you have so much class from picking up other people's trash and messes, to being considerate of other campers regarding generator noise, to your closing comments of every video. The world needs more people like you, thank you brother for the quality content... Tomorrow, I finally get to go to camp for the first time since June. I live in North Texas and we have been under the "Heat Dome", it has been oppressive.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad to hear you are getting a break from the heat. I talked with a few people from Texas over the last few weeks. I could not imagine going through such a long heat wave.
I was thinking about that too. I really like that I could have in in the back seat and still carry the bike and all my other equipment. People have mentioned strapping a kayak to the roof. I go through trees and think I'd tear it off the roof. I think the Oru would fit my needs.
I could smell the ham and bean soup from over here in MI. Yummy. So sorry for your bad luck as of late. With your positive attitude and work ethic, things will turn around for you soon. Take care. Stay safe
Your videos are always informative and never disappoint. Keep up the good work. I envy you can get out every weekend and not spending a ton of money on camp sites!
I'm really happy to hear you say that. My hope was that people would see I'm no different than them. I got crappy job, a mortgage, kids in the house( thankfully, they are older, 17 and 19), but I still find time to center myself on the weekends. If I can do this nearly every weekend for over two years I hope other recognize they can do it too. It's not just full-time UA-camrs that can live the outdoor adventure lifestyle.
I love that you said - the dog trying your soup.. was maybe about you being negative, i have watched about 20 of your videos and not one has disappointed - you are a genuine soul changing individual, than you for being the change in the world
Some days bad luck is the only luck you get. At least you opened you eyes in the morning which is better than the alternative. Ham and bean soup is always a solid choice.
As always Kenny another great video and content, even after all your unfortunate incidents you still managed to bring us another great video!! And taking the time out of your time to do so!
Thanks for the laughs! Really love your videos, my wife and I live vicariously through your weekend trips. Be kind, be honest, we'll see you, down the road.
You bought YOUR jacket. As for the mic and the drones, we watch to see you and the places you go. To experience a little nature vicariously through you while we are stuck in less beautiful places. I know the money loss sucks, and I’m sorry for that, but I, for one, will watch your channel regardless.
As long as that jacket keeps you warm, who cares? 😊Sorry about all the tech failures. Stay safe. Don’t worry about being “positive” or “negative.” Most importantly, you’re real! Cheers!
Hey Kenny I hope all is well thanks for this weeks video. Sorry for you loss in the drones. I’m up in Alaska and it’s sure chilly up here for camping. 34 degrees this morning. Oh by the way I had the same noise from my camper over the weekend those mice are a moving. Lay the decon out. Until next time. Take care.
ABSOLUTELY! I'm not built for heat either, although I was born in the South and lived there for 30 years. When I got off the plane in Minnesota in January weather I was FREE AT LAST!! You can't even IMAGINE how happy I was... and still am... about living in Minnesota (for almost 30 years now). It's a great State with great weather... except for August when it gets a bit hot. Camping (in any state) is hit or miss if you camp in regular camping spots. You may have neighbors there that you tried to get rid of by camping. That's why I always boondock (dispersed camping). I can always be ALONE that way.
I keep watching because of your chill mannerisms, subtle sarcasm, and ideas of where to damp in Minnesota. PS I bought a jacket in Germany that had the zipper on the opposite side too.
Kenny, you make my Tuesday! I just got off work at 7pm in Washington, came home, popped on ur vid and started cooking. Ur demeanor reminds me of myself. Love ur vids bro. Keep up the good work. God bless!
Talking about how your karma was the dog coming to get your soup. I really appreciate you reflecting about that and sharing it with us. So simple yet so powerful. I also have a soft spot for canine mischief, so that lessens the harm for me. I'll remember to slow down and not judge a little better now!
Your recipe for ham & beans is so similar to what I make. I enjoy making beef or chicken vegetable soup. With fall fast approaching I love soups. When it rains sometimes it pours. I often wonder who did I offend when things south for me. Enjoy your weekly videos. We look forward to each Tuesday evening. Thanks for your efforts.
Hey Kenny, I've really enjoyed your fantastic content. My wife and 8year old son and I live in Hastings, Mn. We have an older pop-up camper and we love camping. We love everything Northern Minnesota. We also love South Dakota, we've camped in Custer, Keystone and the Spearfish. Your videos totally capture the splendor of our beautiful state. So glad I found your channel. Maybe we'll see you out there sometime someday. Thanks for being so fun to watch.😊
Kenny, I'm grateful you are showing us camps in Minn! It's beautiful and weather made for campers! I'm in Texas and enjoy the contrast. It's blazing hot here. You've added Minn to my bucket list!
Buddy, this has been one of your best videos drone footage or not! Life rarely goes smoothly for long but you nailed that bean soup and you had a beautiful campsite for the weekend! The bumps in the road will always come but the ability to rise above them and realize what’s important ( the big picture as they say) is what makes us keep going and enjoying the things that make us happy! Too philosophical? Maybe. See you next week!
Kenny as always, great video! You are a rare kind of person. Love your videos. They are not too long or short. You have a soothing voice. You care about the environment you are in and clean up after dirty people. You are a blessing to this world. I look forward to your videos. Take care and hey maybe you will see a letter from a bunch of us!! God bless!
Man, bummer about the drones. I like the fact you are so considerate with generator use. A lot of campers at rustic campgrounds simply don't care. Great video!
Oh man that bean soup looks so amazing! So unfortunate to hear about the drone. When mine broke, I completely lost interest in making videos anymore. So weird that a relatively cheap piece of equipment would do that to me but oh well. Also, wow. Your shots are just spectacular. Really hit it outta the park on this one. Only bout halfway done and I have to go run some errands (pizza and beer). Looking forward to seeing the rest.
Thank you for the comment. There are a few things I love about truck camping. I go where a lot of big campers can not fit. Most of the time, I'm in a single remote dispersed site. It's not uncommon to be out all weekend and not see another person. I love how comfortable the camper is. I work at a crappy job 5 days a week. The only things I look forward to about my job are Saturday and Sunday. The last thing I would want to do on my days off is sleep on the ground, get wet, and freeze all night. If that was the case, I wouldn't be making these videos for the last 2.5 years. The truck camper feels like home to me. I'm comfortable at 100 degrees in the summer and -40 degrees in the winter. I can go out for a long hike or bike ride, get all sweaty, be covered in mosquitoe guts and bug repellent, smell like a campfire. But at the end of the night, I can take a hot shower and be cozy in bed. The truck camper brings me closer to nature every weekend without sacrificing comforts.
Kenny it was another great campsite. It is prefect camping weather and your in the prefect place. Your so very fortunate you can get out every weekend. Your also quite the camp chef the bean's and ham looked fantastic. Hope everything works out with your equipment.
Hey, Kenny. We all appreciate you and your content. You are the most humblest person I've ever been blessed to watch on UA-cam. Many commented that you never ask for anything, which is absolutely true, but so many of us are here on the journey with you. Ever considered making an Amazon store page with whats needed for your trips and posting the link? That way we can help with necessities and such. (Might even get that kayak yet!)
I haven't thought about that. I made a video at Christmas showing some of my favorite camper tools and gadgets. I had a few comments where people were calling me a sellout and a corporate shill. I've never even posted an affiliate link to any product I've shown. I hate that some people think I do this only for the money. But there's no money in this. My channel made 2500 bucks last year. I spend 5x that in fuel alone to make videos. So because of that, I've never asked people to like or subscribe. I've never posted an affiliate link. I don't have an Amazon or UA-cam store. I don't want to do anything that would give people an opportunity to call me an e-begger. I've had a lot of people tell me that the only way I can make content full-time is to start thinking of it as a business. But I'm a horrible businessman.
@@KennyOfAllTrades well, there's always going to be trolls. Your TRUE fans know that you aren't a sell-out as you are too genuine in your approach. I'm sorry that happened, truly.
Kenny, I have been keeping up with you for a good while now. I really like your content. It is always good stuff. Keep up the good work. I don't mind the go pro audio and I know you will get your drone replaced. I think you are a natural at making videos. Your flow is great. You and @worklessenjoylifemore make my Tuesday evenings something to look forward too. Be Safe!
Kenny, you had me/us really worried with the title of this vid. You feel like family, love your jacket, see you next week . Until then be kind, be honest, be positive. 💚Because of you I have realized Minnesota is beautiful, try not to stress over stuff, love your content and wait for it every week!
Kenny you're video are the best of all. You are so relaxed & you're out there just love the camper it's brilliant looking. Just like home from home .. Keep up the good videos. & take care !!!
Dude, first off I love your videos. If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have none at all. Had the HEMI tick last year and got a new engine. This year, it was tires and wheel bearings. But, it'll all work out. Keep on making videos.
Hi Kenny beautiful video. I’m so sorry you had some bad luck, but just know, it happens to all of us. So sorry about your drones, but with your talent nobody will notice. Your soup looked delicious and you definitely know what your doing with cooking. I like your jacket, it looks like a man’s to me or maybe it’s unisex. Thanks for the video and a special thanks for showing us your friends UA-cam channel “Work less Live Life More” I enjoy his videos just like yours 🤗
Art isn’t always for sale, just found your channel and your editing is so smooth! Very easy to watch, love the narration! Hope for many more travels, and look forward to coming with! From Michigan - Connor
Hey brother looks like you got some great weather while I’m dealing with mosquitoes and air condition over here in the East Coast, great to see the fireplace back up and running first recipe for the winter, green beans and ham Dr. Zeus, sorry to see broken drone/audio however the video is amazing as always and keep moving forward
I would never have known anything about the jacket cut, only because you mentioned it and where it came from. Never the less it struck me in my head as to a certain song that you and Mandy can laugh over when you mention the jacket and that a viewer brought up this song in regards to your thoughts on the jacket 😄 "Aerosmith - Dude (Looks Like A Lady)"
I'm a retired US Navy Veteran, permanently disabled. I discovered your channel this morning, what an enjoyable experience. Thank you.

Thank you 😊
I look forward to your videos every week.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate the support for the channel!!
Hey Kenny. My wife & I enjoy your videos. Love your commentary & positive attitude. The locations you visit are awesome! We are driving up to northern MN in 2 weeks for a van camping adventure. We bought a 2012 Chevy Express cargo van a few years ago & turned it into a tent on wheels. So if you see a couple of old folks disperse camping in a white chevy van with Arkansas plates, stop by for a cup of coffee. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing!
Thanks, and I definitely will. I appreciate your support for the channel. It going to help me with replacing the equipment.
Thanks, Kenny. I have learned a lot for your techniques and encouragement. Please keep up the great work.
I really appreciate your generosity Rich! Thank you for supporting the channel.
Hey Kenny, hope this helps!! From one MN outdoor guy to another!! It's always darkest before the dawn!!
This is great! It will definitely help. I'll be able to replace the equipment so much sooner than expected. I really appreciate the support for the channel.
I dont know how you find the time. Working full time, maintaining your home, camping and editing a video for us every week.
Thanks again for doing another great video. Your absolutely amazing. Take care, next week will come with better luck.

Working full time at my regular job and squeezing this in is a labor of love. I don't think I'll ever get paid for my UA-cam work - but it is fun when it all works out. And...NOT a ladies jacket! That's a man's mans jacket!
Thanks! I appreciate the compliment. You are right. Making content is a full-time job in itself. I hope one day to say goodbye to the Monday through Friday job and create content full-time instead. What's your channel? I'll have to check it out.
Kenny you give more than enough to us 💕 you don’t owe us anything and yet you continue to bless us weekly with an escape ☺️Thankyou for your commitment and all that you do, we appreciate you 🙏
Built like a lunch box 😂/ hang in and hope your luck changes for the better
Thanks for sharing the adventure
Hey Kenny, thanks for sharing your weekend. I once had a jacket that zipped the wrong way, and the only person that knew about it was me.
😆 Thanks!
Thank you Kenny for being so considerate to other campers even though you're not going to get that back from everyone!! 🙏❤👍
Hi Kenny, good to see that despite any circumstance that come up your ways you always keep you spirit high and a good attitude. You weren't being negative when your neighbor dog came around. Now days people only care for them selves and are not considerate enough to show respect towards others privacy, the dog should have not made it to your camp site. I really enjoy watching your videos, I know one day I will be able to get out and do some of the stuff that you do but until then I will enjoy watching your videos along with a cup of coffee. Thank you for not advertising in your channel and for standing out from the rest. It's not always about making money but about what you enjoy and wish to share with others. May God bless you always.
I stumbled onto your channel somehow a month or so ago and I've almost watched them all! I live in a truck camper full time, but don't get out too much, so it's nice to go with you on all these trips no matter where you end up. Always beautiful locations and super relaxing to watch. Here is a few to show some appreciation, I know what breaking stuff feels like.
Yes.... what are you contributors using to contribute? I pay for streaming channels i barely watch. Seems like i should do the same here given how much pleasure i get out of them. "I" don't need charity😊. I would like to see fewer vegetables
They scare me.
Thank you Terry. The support for the channel will be helping to replace the equipment. I appreciate that.
I felt the same. I had satellite TV, Netflix, Hulu and Prime Video. I would also go to the moves a couple times a year. I paid a lot of money to support the Hollywierd community. Then about 6 years ago I decided to drop all of that. Now I just watch UA-cam. When I had the means, I belonged to a few Pateron Channels. My first subscription was to Taylor Dezman. I asked myself, why I am paying over 150 bucks a month to all the mainstream television providers when real people like Taylor were busting their butt to create content I could watch for free. So, since I was not paying for television anymore, I supported the small guys like Taylor.
Thanks again Kenny. My wife and I look forward to every Tuesday about 6 pm. When we get that notification. Love your videos. And content. Keep up the great work.
For what it's worth, I really like the footage up through the trees from the bike (while the drone was out of commission). Any time I hike, I end up with pictures like that. Going with the flow and observing the bad luck then still moving forward each time is a great example for us all. It's surprising how many people never learned that skill. Also, Thanks for not running the generator out of consideration for the tent folks. I'm going to speak for us all and say "We appreciate that consideration."
For whatever you need.
Thanks! The donation will go toward replacing the broken equipment. I really appreciate the support. Your generosity is awesome.
That campground looks fantastic and so does the soup.
I've been following your channel for a while now, and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your positive attitude, especially when dealing with all that camera equipment mishap. You're absolutely right, it's just stuff, and what truly keeps me coming back to your videos is your awesome personality and the genuine content you create. Keep up the great work, and remember, we're here for you no matter what "stuff" decides to break next!.
Also - I love the jacket! It's definitely European cut! Zipper pulls are usually on the left instead of right. Looks great on you!
Lol Thanks. I really thought he was pulling my leg. I appreciate your kind words.
Kenny. Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great job. Chuck
Thank you Chuck! Your support for the channel is appreciated. Your donation is very generous. Thank you!!
Thanks, Kenny. Once again, you’ve brought joy into my Tuesday evening. I’m so sorry for your run of misfortune but it will change. I’ve been around long enough to know.
It always does. I appreciate the words of encouragement. Thank you Gary.
Thanks Kenny. Love the content cuz you focus on enjoying your TC to the fullest by getting outdoors into remote places. Keep up the good work. Hope this helps a little.
Thank you so much for the support. It really does help. I appreciate your generosity.
The jacket looks great...I wouldn't worry about it😂. Super nice spot this weekend...dont beat yourself up about being negative about the folks pulling up next to ya - I am the same way. I come to the woods for solitude, not to share my dinner with your pets! 😊
I am still cracking up over your kid telling you she would kick a bears ass ...you're raising her right😂. Thanks for the great video ..see ya next week!
Thanks!
No better place I want to see than Minnesota camping. You've showed more than I ever knew we had here!! Good luck with the repairs, so surprised Utube punishes for a rest span, wow, but thanks for taking us along for all of Minnesota's beauty and peace.
Thanks so much. I appreciate that you took the time to read the description.
Kenny, man you really got hit hard with the bad luck this trip. Maybe you have all the bad luck behind you now and nothing but good is on the way. I like the optimistic attitude even when things are going less than good.................my style also.
Great campsite, you really found a winner there. I have to agree about the coat....I think your Brother messed with you LoL. Little something to help with equipment.
Happier Trails Kenny!
Thank you Richard I have to thank you for being one of my biggest supporters. I really appreciate you.
You're welcome Kenny, please say hi to Mandi B for me! She's bound to bring good luck to you.@@KennyOfAllTrades
@@richardkoch8752 And Tilli ! 🐶🐾
We appreciate the enjoyment that you share with us on every Tuesday. The wife and I are supposed to be looking at an Arctic Fox 811S this weekend. Its almost 8 hours away so...... Our first dispersed camping trip may happen on our way home! THANK YOU!
That is so cool. I hope it's a great find. I really appreciate your support for the channel. Have fun on the first road trip! Be safe.
Tom, I am so happy for you and your wife!!!!! YAY! My husband won't even think about buying a truck and camper or ANY RV.
He said that he was going to buy me a brand new trailer, because he didn't want a used one, but, now he says that he can't afford it.
We've both had Cancer and he doesn't want to spend the money now.
So, I literally feel as if I have one foot in the grave and one foot out. 😣
Congratulations you two, I'll be thinking of you, enjoy camping!
Your friend,
Didi 👋
@@didibolter9362 Thank you so very much for your kind words. I am thankful that you both are still here after a Cancer diagnosis. Stay healthy and well. We will pray for your complete healing.
We ended up missing out on that particular Camper BUT..... I was able to locate a Arctic Fox M-860. Ironically, It is the same model that Kenny happens to have, Just a little older. I left Maryland on a Friday night and was able to drive to Green Bay WI to go pick it up in a single weekend. We absolutely love it. We only wish that the bathroom was a tad bit bigger. Truck campers here on the east coast are pretty hard to find. We had our sights on only 3 different manufacturers. Either a Northern Lite, Bigfoot, or Arctic Fox. After a solid Year and a half..... We were finally able to find one.
We are NOT campgound people. We like our space and privacy. This is why both Kenny (Kenny of all trades) and Larry from (Work less enjoy life more). Both of them are prime examples of the style of camping that we would prefer. Good luck in the future with your health and the potential of joining the camping community. We ABSOLUTELY love it.
@@tomduncan1970 Thank you Tom, we appreciate your kindness and awesome sentiments so very much! ❤❤
I'am sincerely bummed that you and your wife didn't get the truck camper that you both initially wanted, you were so excited and that excited me! 😆 🤗 🤗
But, on the other hand, we are very happy for you that you did find a truck camper that you both LOVE, and that is so SWEET! 💑 I truly LOVE that!! ❤
Take care of yourselves and each other Tom and Mrs! 💑
Thank you again for the SWEET words and sentiments, that was really thoughtful and nice of you!
Your friend,
Didi, and Mr. 👋

Sorry about the bad luck, I really enjoy all of your content!
This is awesome!! I love the support for the channel. I really appreciate your generosity.
The jacket reminds me of The Office when Steve Carell buys a ladies suit. The map overlay of the campsite was really neat. Awesome video.
Hahaha! I'm a HUGE office fan. I know the episode well. I watched the office this weekend. I have the box set in the camper. There wasn't enough cell service to watch a video at bedtime...so I watched the office. Thank you for your donation to the channel. I'm still seriously contemplating Patreon. I should just do it.
Yeah I think you should. I believe many of us would love to show Patreon support
Your meal looks so delicious. Thanks for sharing your weekend.
Hello Kenny, You are such a cool guy.... you are also so very lucky to have so many options for camping, great equipment, the ability to use it and the ability to do many of the repairs and maintenance yourself. Thank you so much for taking us along with you on your weekend adventures. Kenny, you have so much class from picking up other people's trash and messes, to being considerate of other campers regarding generator noise, to your closing comments of every video. The world needs more people like you, thank you brother for the quality content... Tomorrow, I finally get to go to camp for the first time since June. I live in North Texas and we have been under the "Heat Dome", it has been oppressive.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad to hear you are getting a break from the heat. I talked with a few people from Texas over the last few weeks. I could not imagine going through such a long heat wave.
@@KennyOfAllTrades Oh NO way, me neither! I would absolutely MELT!! 🔥🌡👹
I'd love my Oru kayak! It's durable and incredibly easy to unfold and get out on the water. Highly recommend it! 👌 thanks for the great videos😊
I was thinking about that too. I really like that I could have in in the back seat and still carry the bike and all my other equipment. People have mentioned strapping a kayak to the roof. I go through trees and think I'd tear it off the roof. I think the Oru would fit my needs.
@ 8:10 the beautiful aerial view of the campsite.. it's a perfect shape of a heart! 💚
That is awesome. You have a good eye!! Thanks for the comment.
I could smell the ham and bean soup from over here in MI. Yummy. So sorry for your bad luck as of late. With your positive attitude and work ethic, things will turn around for you soon. Take care. Stay safe
Thanks for all you do. Sorry you had a tough weekend. God bless.
This is just awesome! I really appreciate your generosity and support for the channel. Thank you so much!
Yes this is just what I needed today. Thanks for all you do Kenny. Cheers
Thanks for watching
Love your videos Kenny!!!! Yes I enjoy your weekly adventures!!! Looking forward to more of them!!!
Hello Kenny, you always pick the beautiful places to camp, have a great week as you go back to work
Kenny my wife and I truly enjoy watching your videos. Thank you!
Glad you like them!
Your videos are always informative and never disappoint. Keep up the good work. I envy you can get out every weekend and not spending a ton of money on camp sites!
I'm really happy to hear you say that. My hope was that people would see I'm no different than them. I got crappy job, a mortgage, kids in the house( thankfully, they are older, 17 and 19), but I still find time to center myself on the weekends. If I can do this nearly every weekend for over two years I hope other recognize they can do it too. It's not just full-time UA-camrs that can live the outdoor adventure lifestyle.
I love that you said - the dog trying your soup.. was maybe about you being negative, i have watched about 20 of your videos and not one has disappointed - you are a genuine soul changing individual, than you for being the change in the world
Some days bad luck is the only luck you get. At least you opened you eyes in the morning which is better than the alternative.
Ham and bean soup is always a solid choice.
That is for sure!
Kenny don't feel alone in your travels we're out here with you, and enjoying every bit of it. 😊
As always Kenny another great video and content, even after all your unfortunate incidents you still managed to bring us another great video!! And taking the time out of your time to do so!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the support!
Thanks for the laughs! Really love your videos, my wife and I live vicariously through your weekend trips. Be kind, be honest, we'll see you, down the road.
That is awesome!
Keep it up you're luck will turn. Your putting out some great content. Just a hardworking good dude, no gimmicks or click bait.
I appreciate that!
I appreciate that you DON'T do clickbait too and I appreciate you Kenny!!
🌲🏞Keep Camping my friend!🌲🏞
Your friend,
Didi, 🖑
You bought YOUR jacket. As for the mic and the drones, we watch to see you and the places you go. To experience a little nature vicariously through you while we are stuck in less beautiful places. I know the money loss sucks, and I’m sorry for that, but I, for one, will watch your channel regardless.
Thanks. You're right about the jacket. I like it, so that's really all that matters.
As long as that jacket keeps you warm, who cares? 😊Sorry about all the tech failures. Stay safe. Don’t worry about being “positive” or “negative.” Most importantly, you’re real! Cheers!
Thank you.
Hello from Maine, thanks for talking us camping!
😂 I'm glad you used my mother's saying of " if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any at all" 😂😂😂 she always said that. She would of be 86
I love it when the videos spark a memory. Thank you for tge comment
Hey Kenny
I hope all is well thanks for this weeks video. Sorry for you loss in the drones. I’m up in Alaska and it’s sure chilly up here for camping. 34 degrees this morning. Oh by the way I had the same noise from my camper over the weekend those mice are a moving. Lay the decon out.
Until next time. Take care.
ABSOLUTELY! I'm not built for heat either, although I was born in the South and lived there for 30 years. When I got off the plane in Minnesota in January weather I was FREE AT LAST!! You can't even IMAGINE how happy I was... and still am... about living in Minnesota (for almost 30 years now). It's a great State with great weather... except for August when it gets a bit hot. Camping (in any state) is hit or miss if you camp in regular camping spots. You may have neighbors there that you tried to get rid of by camping. That's why I always boondock (dispersed camping). I can always be ALONE that way.
Kenny, Your stew got puppy love!! 😂 Put the go pro on Mandy of all trades on her next trip. Her laughing makes me smile.
What a great comment. I hope she sees this! Thank you.
I keep watching because of your chill mannerisms, subtle sarcasm, and ideas of where to damp in Minnesota.
PS I bought a jacket in Germany that had the zipper on the opposite side too.
Thanks!
Nice pick Kenny. It's beautiful there. It's neat that they have an old time water pump.
Camping can be a real challenge Kenny! I appreciate your truthfulness about your journey!!
Kenny, you make my Tuesday! I just got off work at 7pm in Washington, came home, popped on ur vid and started cooking. Ur demeanor reminds me of myself. Love ur vids bro. Keep up the good work. God bless!
Talking about how your karma was the dog coming to get your soup. I really appreciate you reflecting about that and sharing it with us. So simple yet so powerful. I also have a soft spot for canine mischief, so that lessens the harm for me. I'll remember to slow down and not judge a little better now!
Hello Kenny, love your videos. Please keep doing, what your doing. It's fun watching you all the time... your very mellow. Thank you, Dan
Thanks so much
Your recipe for ham & beans is so similar to what I make. I enjoy making beef or chicken vegetable soup. With fall fast approaching I love soups. When it rains sometimes it pours. I often wonder who did I offend when things south for me. Enjoy your weekly videos. We look forward to each Tuesday evening. Thanks for your efforts.
Thank you for the comment
I've always enjoyed watching your videos Kenny, thanks again for letting us come along for the ride.keep the content coming.
Thanks!
Hey Kenny, I've really enjoyed your fantastic content. My wife and 8year old son and I live in Hastings, Mn. We have an older pop-up camper and we love camping. We love everything Northern Minnesota. We also love South Dakota, we've camped in Custer, Keystone and the Spearfish. Your videos totally capture the splendor of our beautiful state. So glad I found your channel. Maybe we'll see you out there sometime someday. Thanks for being so fun to watch.😊
What an awesome comment. You are right about South Dakota, It is so beautiful. If you ever see me out and about, make sure to say hi.
Kenny, I'm grateful you are showing us camps in Minn! It's beautiful and weather made for campers! I'm in Texas and enjoy the contrast. It's blazing hot here. You've added Minn to my bucket list!
That is awesome to hear...not the heat .....but you wanting to check out Minnesota. It's an awesome state for the outdoors man.
Buddy, this has been one of your best videos drone footage or not! Life rarely goes smoothly for long but you nailed that bean soup and you had a beautiful campsite for the weekend! The bumps in the road will always come but the ability to rise above them and realize what’s important ( the big picture as they say) is what makes us keep going and enjoying the things that make us happy! Too philosophical? Maybe. See you next week!
Thanks a ton! I really appreciate the comment.
Thanks for all your videos! Keep them coming! Good luck!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the support for the channel.
Kenny as always, great video! You are a rare kind of person. Love your videos. They are not too long or short. You have a soothing voice. You care about the environment you are in and clean up after dirty people. You are a blessing to this world. I look forward to your videos. Take care and hey maybe you will see a letter from a bunch of us!! God bless!
That was such a nice complement. I appreciate the kind words.
Man, bummer about the drones. I like the fact you are so considerate with generator use. A lot of campers at rustic campgrounds simply don't care. Great video!
Thanks!
Damn, That soup looks delicious!! Now I am hungry. Great spot!!
Your soup looked delicious Kenny!! Beautiful campsite too!
Oh man that bean soup looks so amazing! So unfortunate to hear about the drone. When mine broke, I completely lost interest in making videos anymore. So weird that a relatively cheap piece of equipment would do that to me but oh well.
Also, wow. Your shots are just spectacular. Really hit it outta the park on this one. Only bout halfway done and I have to go run some errands (pizza and beer). Looking forward to seeing the rest.
Thanks Vic. I think the shots from day two looked better. You'll have to let me know. Drive safe
Vic and Kenny love your content!
So beautiful! Homesick again! Thanks for bringing me along.
I really enjoy your videos, it makes me want to start camping like this
Thank you for the comment. There are a few things I love about truck camping.
I go where a lot of big campers can not fit. Most of the time, I'm in a single remote dispersed site. It's not uncommon to be out all weekend and not see another person.
I love how comfortable the camper is. I work at a crappy job 5 days a week. The only things I look forward to about my job are Saturday and Sunday. The last thing I would want to do on my days off is sleep on the ground, get wet, and freeze all night. If that was the case, I wouldn't be making these videos for the last 2.5 years. The truck camper feels like home to me. I'm comfortable at 100 degrees in the summer and -40 degrees in the winter. I can go out for a long hike or bike ride, get all sweaty, be covered in mosquitoe guts and bug repellent, smell like a campfire. But at the end of the night, I can take a hot shower and be cozy in bed. The truck camper brings me closer to nature every weekend without sacrificing comforts.
Kenny it was another great campsite. It is prefect camping weather and your in the prefect place. Your so very fortunate you can get out every weekend. Your also quite the camp chef the bean's and ham looked fantastic. Hope everything works out with your equipment.
Thanks 👍
Hey, Kenny. We all appreciate you and your content. You are the most humblest person I've ever been blessed to watch on UA-cam. Many commented that you never ask for anything, which is absolutely true, but so many of us are here on the journey with you. Ever considered making an Amazon store page with whats needed for your trips and posting the link? That way we can help with necessities and such. (Might even get that kayak yet!)
I haven't thought about that. I made a video at Christmas showing some of my favorite camper tools and gadgets. I had a few comments where people were calling me a sellout and a corporate shill. I've never even posted an affiliate link to any product I've shown. I hate that some people think I do this only for the money. But there's no money in this. My channel made 2500 bucks last year. I spend 5x that in fuel alone to make videos. So because of that, I've never asked people to like or subscribe. I've never posted an affiliate link. I don't have an Amazon or UA-cam store. I don't want to do anything that would give people an opportunity to call me an e-begger. I've had a lot of people tell me that the only way I can make content full-time is to start thinking of it as a business. But I'm a horrible businessman.
@@KennyOfAllTrades well, there's always going to be trolls. Your TRUE fans know that you aren't a sell-out as you are too genuine in your approach. I'm sorry that happened, truly.
Kenny, I have been keeping up with you for a good while now. I really like your content. It is always good stuff. Keep up the good work. I don't mind the go pro audio and I know you will get your drone replaced. I think you are a natural at making videos. Your flow is great. You and @worklessenjoylifemore make my Tuesday evenings something to look forward too. Be Safe!
Awesome! Thank you!
Kenny, you had me/us really worried with the title of this vid. You feel like family, love your jacket, see you next week . Until then be kind, be honest, be positive. 💚Because of you I have realized Minnesota is beautiful, try not to stress over stuff, love your content and wait for it every week!
Kenny you're video are the best of all. You are so relaxed & you're out there just love the camper it's brilliant looking. Just like home from home .. Keep up the good videos. & take care !!!
Dude, first off I love your videos. If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have none at all. Had the HEMI tick last year and got a new engine. This year, it was tires and wheel bearings. But, it'll all work out. Keep on making videos.
Thanks Matt
Hi Kenny beautiful video. I’m so sorry you had some bad luck, but just know, it happens to all of us. So sorry about your drones, but with your talent nobody will notice. Your soup looked delicious and you definitely know what your doing with cooking. I like your jacket, it looks like a man’s to me or maybe it’s unisex. Thanks for the video and a special thanks for showing us your friends UA-cam channel “Work less Live Life More” I enjoy his videos just like yours 🤗
👌 Thank you so much
Art isn’t always for sale, just found your channel and your editing is so smooth! Very easy to watch, love the narration! Hope for many more travels, and look forward to coming with! From Michigan - Connor
Very cool, thank you so much. I'm glad you found the channel.
Hey brother looks like you got some great weather while I’m dealing with mosquitoes and air condition over here in the East Coast, great to see the fireplace back up and running first recipe for the winter, green beans and ham Dr. Zeus, sorry to see broken drone/audio however the video is amazing as always and keep moving forward
I would never have known anything about the jacket cut, only because you mentioned it and where it came from. Never the less it struck me in my head as to a certain song that you and Mandy can laugh over when you mention the jacket and that a viewer brought up this song in regards to your thoughts on the jacket 😄 "Aerosmith - Dude (Looks Like A Lady)"
haha. I like that.
When i have days like that. It helps to listen to Frank Sinatra summer wind.Number 1 youtuber on The planet Kenny🇺🇸🇳🇴
