Getting out on the road is what Linda and I love to do with our converted cargo trailer camper. We're part time nomads and the nomadic lifestyle suits us to a Tee. Whether your RV is a camper van, camp trailer, travel trailer, motorhome or just a car and a tent, there's going to be something interesting for you in the videos we produce. Back roads and overlanding are part of what we do while exploring the western states for beautiful, peaceful and sometimes remote places to camp on BLM and National Forest land (public land). Taking care of ourselves as much as possible and doing our own repairs is a must because we travel on a fixed income and a limited budget. If your into being off-grid and boondocking, or doing dispersed camping whenever possible then you'll appreciate the discussions on batteries, solar panels and solar chargers or power stations and 12v refrigeration. Come on along, we're happy to have your company!

I found you two from interest in cargo trailers, since then I've grown to just like seeing Linda and yourself. Content may be all over the place but what keeps me coming back is I believe you two are real. I've been in youtube and got away from cable TV years ago. I've seen corporations basically take over channels with once loved content and travel. I understand the money but as usual the little guy who made these channels are forgotten.. I'm here as long as you two are producing. Envious at times of your travels and the way you do it.. stay safe 🙏
Thanks, Todd, we're glad that you keep coming back for more!
You know it is crazy how many of these videos I have seen from other makers, & I have been inspired to do the same thing, except without a video of the adventure. The video production is more challenge than I would take on, but they are fun to watch. There are all sorts of adventures just 30 miles away.
Second comment of the day…..
I’m missing Linda!
Maybe while she is still in her at home recovery,
have Linda do a video or part of one on any topic she desires.
Miss u on the channel, Linda, and hope your recovery keeps going strong.
Hi Robin! Mahalo (thank you) for your encouraging words. Today I managed to walk on my ankle without any help, still a little stiff but it gets better each day. Aloha ~~Linda
Rick and Linda keep up the good work, don't sweat the small stuff. I personally enjoy watching the two of you because you are such warm people. The kind of folks I would be proud to call friend. Be well and stay safe.
Thanks so much, Cindy!
Yep, Linda nailed it “Lifecrafting”! I’ve learned so many various skills from you guys I couldn’t list them all. You’re like having experienced friends who’ve already done about everything you’re interested in and have tips on things you haven’t even thought of yet! I was thinking about you guys last night making dinner with my 12 volt rice maker I learned from you, your channel has literally changed how I live for the better!! THANKS!!!
Good to see you Rick. I’m glad to hear Linda’s doing a bit better. I’m thinking most people follow y’all for you as much as your content!
Thanks, Mia.
Adventures big and small, we love them all! Love the "lifecrafting" concept! A+ idea. Also, we appreciate the commentary and agree! Keep moving!
Been wondering how Linda was doing. I enjoy the content of your channel. Always good to learn different things. And you guys are about the same age as my wife and me. Although more adventurous!👍🏻
Never lose your spirit for adventure (and just plain fun in the outdoors). Another great video.
Lifecrafting is perfect-and just what I need!
Step 2: Cheers! Looking forward to whatever you wish to cover. You guys always make a wide variety of subjects interesting and insightful. Never disappointed yet.
Nice reference to Steve.
Rick, you and Linda are delightful and having you in my living room on tv is like having friends visiting and telling me of all your adventures while showing me videos. You've taught me so much and/or showed things that my husband and I use to do. And on the note of estrogen, it's also in our beef big time unless you buy grass fed. I think it was great that you shared that info and not a point for anyone to get angry at you. Of course you and I know that there are some out there that look for any opportunity to argue. Doing this video was awesome, but don't put yourself out just to appease those who want to be critical. We understand with Linda still recovering and gas prices being what they are. And honestly, your channel may save lives in the future just with learning how to make things last longer like your upcoming video on butane stoves, and like today's video on how to stay warm in less than perfect conditions. We need to all be friends these days and appreciate one another. I know I sure appreciate you and Linda. God bless and stay safe!!
It's always so nice to hear from you, Wanda, you've been with us for a long time. And thanks for the tip on the grass fed beef which, luckily for us, is mostly what we get here. Thank you for watching our videos, we sure do appreciate you.
@@gonagain awe! Thank you for your kindness. I'm hoping some friends of mine will be up for a journey over your direction some day and we can all meet. Till then I'll be seeing you two here. 😃🙏
Rick I’m just grateful there’s someone out there willing to do the stuff I like to do at my age! Thanks to you and Linda, hope she’s doing ok! Hope you two keep the videos coming! ☮️
I happy to hear that you are enjoying life too!
I am always entertained by your content, and I always learn something. That little alcohol stove made me remember I've saved some DIY to make such a stove from aluminum cans. I might have to give that a try. Best to you and Linda!
Those homemade aluminum can alcohol stoves work very well. I made a bag full and really like them.
No matter what your video is about, I just LOVE your channel. You and Linda share so much wisdom and camping experience with us, SO appreciated. Pray for Linda 's speedy recovery, so we can see You Two together again.
Thank you so much! Keep watching, Linda will appear soon!
Great adventure, thanks for taking me along. And thank you for insightful information.
Glad you enjoyed it. We're always happy to have you come along, Sandra. See you on the next one!
We have watched your channel for a long time and always take something away from every episode that is relevant to our travels! Canoe trips are always a good time we look forward to you and Linda sharing your adventure. I am afraid gas prices will kill the RV travel season this summer as we are canceling some trips we booked in January. Thank you for showing how satisfying traveling can be with simple basic equipment!
Variety is good. No worries! We enjoy your “Life Crafting” channel.
Hi Rick, send all my best to Linda and your girls. I enjoy following your channel, not for what it is, which is entertaining and informative, but mostly because of who y'all are, fine people. Take Care
I hope Linda heals soon! I really enjoy your podcasts! Very informative!
Hi Rick. Interesting episode for sure. For me it started with you showing everything I needed to know for my cargo-build. (The Cargo Guru) but more satisfying is your Calm, Adventurous and Funny outdoor pursuits. So what if you and Linda stay West & South??, there are many more places to go that hold a Thousand Mysteries. Between Nevada and Arizona we will Never run out of hiding places. The Special Part about your channel is, how personal, honest, open-minded and 'down to earth' the two of you are. Gee, I don't care What subject you share or highlight, I know it's going to be good. Good for the Soul, the Spirit. Thank God I found your channel. 👍🤗
Thank you for your most kind and encouraging words, we really appreciate it. And thanks for sticking with us!
Use what u have! And what you’ll do for the channel! Love it. Ms. Linda better get road worthy soon or no telling what you’ll come up with to entertain yourself and us.
Thank you for keeping on, keeping on…….
And I’ll continue to watch the channel no matter the content. I personally watch because I’ve come to appreciate you and Linda as people. You both are inspirations. You do have so much life experience to share and from an age group perspective that is almost non existent on U Tube.
Thank you, Robin!
You could camp in your driveway and people would watch. They watch because of you and your wife know how to enjoy life. Thanks for making the stove video soon I’m one of the people asking how you did it. Just love your honesty in reviews too. Have fun traveling and stay safe.
Get her a three wheeled bicycle, no balance needed.
I just finished shooting the stove video and it will definitely be up on Friday.
Love all of your videos! We don’t care what the topic is - it’s always fun and usually very helpful ❤️
Hope Linda is up and running soon. I enjoy your channel. All good stories are character driven.
You obviously were well prepared and not too far from home which would keep you out of real trouble. When Steve and I lived in Alaska we would often snow camp in temperatures between 10 and 25 degrees F.. Here are a couple of cold camping tips that we used: we’d cut a piece of Reflectix to use in addition to our sleeping pad. We enjoyed that so much that we eventually pieced together a footprint for the inside of our tent out of Reflectix.We sometimes fill a Nalgene bottle (or a Mason jar if we’re van camping) with hot water to put in our sleeping bag as a hot water bottle. We’d totally wrap up in our survival blanket like a burrito. It’s a little noisy but a lot warmer! If Costco goes back to selling the Double Diamond down throws get a few. You can roll up in one while inside your bag. Hammock sleepers use them for under quilts, they’re so light and warm. There’s also a story of a guy who broke his leg out skiing in the backcountry who credits the Costco down throw with saving his life. In the real cold the authorities warned Alaskans to not combine alcohol with outdoor activities as it causes heat loss. The surface blood vessels dilate (giving us that flushed, happy look) and heat leaves the body. I can neither confirm nor deny breaking this rule, as a toddy is always enjoyed after an active day, while getting ready to sleep rough. We also had an official saying: “cotton kills”. It holds body moisture next to the skin and the evaporation causes cooling. That’s what we want in the summer, of course! Some poly or wool clothes, a wool or poly beanie and you’d have been toasty! I miss Linda, but love to be on adventures with you! The riverside chat about your fossils and your friends’ finds were so interesting!! Thank you for your Lifecraft channel. Many of us enjoy knowing a humble, well spoken guy and a gal who can fix their own stuff, can tell a story, put together a nicely done video of their adventures and let us hang out with them for a bit! My best to Linda!!
No matter what subject you have in your video’s me and Renee are always interested. You and Linda do a great job. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching!
Even though I don't know you Rick, I feel as if I do. I relate and gravitate to you and your channel because you don't 'sugarcoat' anything. You are humble, simple, and carefree when it comes to your life, your love, your passion. You've paid your dues throughout life, providing for your family and loved ones, through good times and hard times.. Now you have reached a point in life where you (and Linda) can enjoy what you've worked so hard for, there is nothing that should stop you from going out and enjoying a good whiskey and cigar, reflecting on life and what's going on in this 'modern world', sharing your views and opinions, then freezing your butt off! Great video Sir!
Thank you for those kind words of encouragement, we appreciate it!
@@gonagain All the best my friend! I appreciate y'all!
You're a braver man than I..Lol I'm about to embark on my first hammock camp trip but will wait until warmer weather....I HATE BEING COLD!! It doesn't matter to me what you put on your channel y'all are real and I enjoy your adventures. I agree with your theory regarding young men today and I feel it's partially from food like milk,eggs,chicken etc. that contain high levels of estrogen. On the other hand young boys growing up in fatherless homes and homes of same sex couples does not help the situation! I'm a scotch and pipe smoker myself,so keep the video's coming!
Hello Alan, don't forget chicken. The reason chicken breasts are so large today, compared to the old days, is all the hormones they're fed. Amazing what we've been eating.
Rick, every video you guys put out I have enjoyed, not only for the content but more so I enjoy the two of you. Thank you.
Brotherhood of the leaf. Always enjoy a good cigar
Its the variety I find interesting. Exploring is fun to watch. But learning and hearing new or interesting ideas is just as amusing. So you folks do you and thanks for letting us tag along.
Thanks for coming along!
Just keep showing us your life skills, we love your channel. You and Linda make everything interesting.
Thank you!
We also found your channel because of the cargo trailer conversion a few years ago and subscribed. We have enjoyed every single one since then, except when Linda got hurt. 😢
This was so nice just sitting and listening to you, like we were right there, but without the cold🥶
Thank you for going and sharing with us. So glad you made it home safe.🤗🌞
Hello Lynda, I also bought a warmer sleeping bag for the next trip.
What ever you call your channel, I have always found the content extremely useful, helpful and very entertaining. Meaning you and Linda have always kept my interest in whatever you post. You guys are the best out there and I can tell you how much you are appreciated!
Wow, thank you, Marvin!
Regardless of the content, youu guys are the reason I watch. Your way of talking and the flow of your speaking is just like sitting down with a freind and having a nice conversation.
Thank you for your most kind words, Roberta. We are always glad to have you along!
don't worry about your channel. your subscribers love it! i like the variety.
Remembering what it was like when I was young, the old saying is: "I'm not the man I used to be and I never was." 😂😂😂
Ever watch the Red Green Show? They recite the Man's Prayer before their lodge meetings: "I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess."
Lifecrafting is a good description for your content. Great content, and we enjoy it all.
I came for the cargo-camper-conversion and stayed for the self-sufficiency tips. Y'all are good people and I love your channel even if I don't watch every single video.
I do worry about your using an alcohol stove in a tent -- if that knocked over, wouldn't it be super dangerous?
I don't know about it being super dangerous, but it wouldn't be fun. That's why I brought along that cutting board though, to provide stability for the stove. A small gas stove would probably be a better idea.
I enjoy watching your channel. I learn something new every time. Thank you for taking me along with you and Linda. 🙂
We're always happy to have you come along with us, Chris! See you on the next one.
I used to take my kids truck camping miles off in the wilderness. I picked up a dozen used comforters from the thrift store and would lay that down for them in the tent to keep them warm after discovering air mattresses conduct the cold. This video was a nice change. Life craft, as always I will be looking forward to your video's. Also you need not travel far to camp. Spring is on its way. LoL There are many beautiful places in your state. Do the states economy some good to play tour guide. Maybe? I am thankful Linda is doing better.
Hey, did I miss a video, I don't recall seeing that E-Bike before. I think you are going to need to make about this one. Watching your videos is like having an extra older brother, each time I go to visit, I pick up some nugget of information that I will probably need some day if I can remember it. Plus it's just enjoyable. Lifecrafting, Good term, it fits. Glad to hear Linda is still progressing.
Today was a good day, went got to go visit older brother and got home to see your new video.Nice weather today for a 200 mile trip
Rick on the testosterone and estrogen issue using many plastics like we do for food also leaches out compounds like estrogen that effects your body. It is always entertaining and educational watching your videos, thank you. I hope Linda is getting better and moving, I understand the frustration of having to "rest" for your body to heal when you have many things to do. Be safe.
Thanks, Badger Pa, Linda is getting out of the house now to go shopping with me, so it won't be too long before you all get to see her again.
Life Crafting! Brilliant! I'm so glad Linda is better.
Me too!!
Rick in the past 2 days I’ve learned 2 new terms: RV = Residential Vehicle and now Lifecrafters!
At 50 I tried hiking Haleakala after having done 3 ninety foot dives two days before. I was heading for Paliku and had the worst case of altitude sickness. At the cabin on the floor had to turn around and hike out! Will never forget that!
Gas prices are making my stays on BLM land the full 14 days. Have to be back in Kansas mid-May but learning to conserve and eat less meat. I figure though it’s still doable, though don’t eat out or spend time at campgrounds.
Hope Linda is doing better and not getting too spoiled!
Linda and I got married up at Haleakala Crater. Gas prices are for sure having an effect on all of us. Safe travels to Kansas, Megs.
Back to the workshop Rick, 😉. What that e-bike needs is a nice light but strong trailer, maybe chromoly or aluminium section. Just big enough to securely hold your o/night kit and supplies. It should also be big enough for Linda’s Sultan chair for trips around townships etc, 😳😉.
Cheers my friend,
👏👏👏 👋👋👋
Don't tell Linda about that chair! I'll be looking for a second-hand child trailer to see if it's something that could work for me.
i can't stand feeling cold. bravo for going through with it!
I've missed swing your videos. Glad your wife is doing okay and getting spoild by your girls. Take care.
Good point about the water. A few years ago I read a book by Seth Seigel titled "Troubled Water, what's wrong with what we Drink". It's not just estrogen, but every pharmaceutical produced, as well as industrial pollutants, animal meat industry, etc. The same mess is found in most bottled waters as well. He explains how the municipal water systems simply can't test and filter water for every pollutant especially at the levels we waste it in toilets, baths, lawns, etc. I immediately researched, purchased, and installed a 7 stage RO water filter system for the house...
Even bottled water has bad taste that seems unnatural to me. Maybe it is from the plastic bottle or some chemical to treat the water but I do not drink even store bought water unless I take it home and filter again.
I'm thinking it may be better right now to either bring back mountain water to filter and drink or to go the RO method like you mentioned. This is crazy what's happening.
Yup! We sure could use some Life Crafting tips! ❤
Life crafting is an excellent name. We also started watching you as we were/ are cargo trailer dwellers. But you real life videos and as you call it all over the place is refreshing and at home. Thank you and Linda for all of your sharing of knowledge. Blessings to you
Thank you, Michele.
Enjoy watching you guys whatever you do.
Thanks, Sooner Girl. How're you liking your new ride?
Yes, life crafting!❤
I've never really understood the camping in the cold thing, but glad i picked today to watch, now I'll understand when i come by and your next video is about some totally unrelated thing. I think that will make you all the more interesting.
Be safe, May the Lord go before you in your travels....
Life crafting, makes sense to me! You guys have always kept it real and I appreciate that.
I LOVE THAT..."LIFE Crafting. Yes...that fits well!
Ya know Rick, when Linda gets mad you can sleep on the couch. You don’t need to camp down by the river! LOL
Nice bike trip along the Missouri. You need to figure out how to pack along some pie for desert. Keep the video rolling. 😎
As you were armed with cigar and flask I was waiting for your George Burns quips and then Gracie appears! But it wasn't meant to be and I will look forward to your next episode with your best friend and sidekick who has the knack of seeing the irony in things and subtly lets you know about it!
Life crafting…we like it!
Great channel...
Don't change a thing.
You're rockin it Rick. Your channel is like fireside chats all about camping, trailering, e-bikes, etc. A lot of people following you are interested in all of these items. Life crafting, love it! You inspire me to get out locally on my e-bike and do the same thing. Living in Teton Valley, Idaho
I have numerous canyons and trails within 3-6 miles.
You live in a beautiful place!!!
We really enjoyed this video. You know, it really doesn't matter what you guys are doing, we just like who you are. We really love it when you reminis. All your videos are good!!
Thank you so much!
I don't care what the channel is called! As far as I know I have watched ever single video! Lol. Bless you both!
Thank you, Terry!
Hey Rick enjoy dish episode number just glad to hear that Linda is getting better I really enjoy all your experiences I am 84 years old and still getting out every now and then y’all keep up the good work your channel makes me happy.
Thanks 👍, Ron. You must have a lot of stories to tell, hope you get out again.
@Gonagain, hot water bottles are a life saver. A bottle of hot water will not last completely through the night but it will give you a few hours of restful sleep.
These plastic bottles can't take the heat of boiling water without shrinking so I heat ~3\4 to boiling but then pour the 1/4 back in to lower the temperature. I only heat about 1/2 if it is already warm.
Hot water bottles are safer than other heating methods. I've heard of a lot of people dieing in tent fires.
Thank you for the reminder about hot water bottles. A lot of folks use the chemical heating packets, too, but nothing beats a comforting warm bottle in your sleeping bag.
Awesome video, brother!! What you shared about your channel is EXACTLY what we find so attractive to your channel! Life stuff!! Thank you for sharing with all of us. Please keep it up, brother!
I appreciate that, thanks for the encouragement, Jerry.
Hi Rick appreciated your video and yes , I am a Steve Wallace subscriber as well, hope you enjoyed your step two! It goes without saying that you really miss Linda on your travels and I hope to see you both on the trail soon. Speedy recovery to Linda and all the very best!
Rick we are all going through hard times.I started my home renovation business in 2004 part time them full time in 2006.We survived the collapse of 2009 and took years to dig out from the aftermath.Now all this chaos and an economic collapse is on the horizon.I just enjoy ya'll so I completely understand you do what you need to do because that's what I do to make things work.
Hello John, thanks for the words of encouragement. We're still managing to have some fun, even though we can't travel as far as we'd like, but the kind of things we do don't involve as much money as other hobbies and can be enjoyed locally too. I hope you can get out yourself for some adventuring as well.
Thanks for video! hope Linda's doing better! Yes my sleeping bag is also old good down to 60 F LoL ! happy trails
I absolutely loved this video !! First of all, I had no idea what “guana” was and I was fascinated with everything you talked about from the current status of inflation as well as testosterone/estrogen and current findings of changes in younger males! 70% less is a lot in what seems like a short time 🥺 I also love hearing of your and Linda’s wisdom, and experiences. Yes, your channel is AMAZING and I learn from each video you post ! Thank you 🥰 I am looking forward to all of our futures sharing !!🤙
Thank you, Darlene! Appreciate hearing from you.
Sorry for so many posts! in the beginning my post didn’t go through !
That's okay! We love hearing from you, Denise.
That's okay because we like hearing from you!
I worked for J.Beam for 42 years.
You might like Knob Creek. Very nice sipping Bourbon.
Thank you, I'll try that!
Jim Beam has Always been my first choice for bourbon. I believe the black label is tops.👊
Doesn't matter far away or close to home and everything in-between always interesting and always real
Oh man, you went bikepacking! That is so much fun! Glad to see you got to experience that, Rick. I've done lots of it myself and it's for sure a memory-maker activity. There's something so pure that is hard to describe about strapping your kit to a bike, leaving right from your doorstep and being all "Second star to the right and straight on til morning" about it. Even more fun with a few friends or family [or a crazy neighbor] along for the ride. And yes, the first few times you do it you're always going to be a bit funky and take along too much stuff and that's just fine. There's no need to worry about having all the fancy kit. That comes after you get addicted to it. Like you alluded to with Steve [he's awesome!], Just go with what you got and have a good time which you obviously did. And now you've made me want to go be a bike hobo yet again ;-)
And best wishes to Linda. I'm glad to hear she's healing up well. You two are rad! Looking forward to seeing you two out there again. Keep gettin' after it and happy travels! And thanks so much for sharing this trip. It honestly made me smile.
As for the "variety channel" aspect, I'm down with that! It keeps things interesting.
Thank you, Charles. My granddaughter wants to go bikepacking with me on an overniter soon. That should be a fun adventure for sure!
AWESOME video log. Enjoyed so much.
Lol, good camping spot. Good timing to scoot home..
Never enough equipment! 😁😁
Goneagain is goingstealthy. It’s the camping and seeing neat stuff channel and I’m good with that. “Life craft is good.” Travel on. I’m so looking forward to Linda’s return, as I’m sure are you. The Missouri is dicey at best. I know I didn’t and probably still wouldn’t eat the trout I caught there. Smith River is another story…. Our little city has to dredge its spring fed lake, because of water fowl guano! I used to smoke my pipe while fly fishing to keep the bugs away! That just looks cold! Sometimes is just time to move along. Lewis and Clark would be proud of you, brother.
Thanks, Bill. Linda is about to make a return appearance!
Variety is the spice of life. Keep up the good work!
I love all your adventures. Thanks for taking me along to all the places I wish I could visit
Do whatever, you guys are great & so much fun to watch!
KUDOS for another great share and Video! Glad to hear Linda is doing better and on the mend:) You are a brave soul to camp out there in the cold, and yes, new equipment is a great idea :) It will be interesting to say the least for all of us with rising prices everywhere... ALL THE BEST and Cheers! :) Like the all over the place videos though!
Thank you, Marty. The rising prices on everything will certainly impact our traveling plans. Take care.
Another great video , Tell Linda we miss her
You have a great and interesting channel, with lots of variety that above all is affordable to most people. Every episode is an adventure of some sort. Richard from Canada.
Maybe Linda can share your guy’s favourite camp meals !
Maybe!
Wow. I love this video. I know you know what you're doing, but I live my life precariously through you. I would never be able to do what you did on that trip. You take care of yourself, and I'm looking forward to the next video.
Look, I watch your channel & all your videos because it's very enjoyable! I actually learn things from you guys. Diversify! It's refreshing to see people enjoying life outdoors!
Thanks, Star Glitter.
I watch Steve sometimes. He and crazy neighbor always have something cooked up!
I started watching him early on and it's been fun watching his channel grow.
I'll continue to watch you which ever way your path goes. The channel is about you 2 and that's why I keep coming back. I'm impressed with your tent camping in the cold. You are a better man than me Gunga Din.
Tell Linda HI, I miss seeing her, she'll get well again. Can I come down the river with ya'll? Love your YT work
PJ
Pack your gear and load up your canoe!!!
@@gonagain My date of birth 4/11/in the year of the Lord nineteen hundred forty nine. Health permitting, I'll drive your way in my 1973 MGBGT while pulling my tiny trailer in the summer of 2023. My ultimate destination will be a MG convention in Calgary .I'll spend most of the summer on this roadtrip starting and ending in NC.
I'm married, but my wife does not share my love of camping in the Runaway camper, so I'll be solo. Like Stienbach in his last novel, "Travels with Charlie"' My sweetie joins me from time to time for a visit Usually in an interesting destination. When that occurs we use a Hotel.
I've canoed many miles in the USA and Canada, and was an avid white water rafter for many decades. It all started in the BSA. I was blessed with outstanding leaders and opportunities to camp, hike and expierenced all types of water sports.
OK, I'm not writing a novel, take care, I love your channel!
I like the camping/travel channels that show a variety of things. I'm interested in Daughter #2's trailer progress (and Daughter 1's trailer - any changes/upgrades)_ as I Hope to build one sometime in the future. I've watched just about every cargo trailer camper video on the UA-cams.
Glad Linda is doing good.
Eastern Montana is a nice dry warm place in the right season. 😃
You just enjoy your life and have fun. Thank you for sharing what you enjoy with us.
We love your channel. Life craft! That’s a great subject.
There’s not many folks willing to pass on common sense and wisdom these days.
Come to think of it, there might be less common sense.
You’re right on about the testosterone level’s negative effect today. It’s frightening.
Love you guys!❤🙏🏻🦅
Good video and your braver than us...too cold to sleep in tent. Why we are building cargo conversation 😁
Hi to Linda 👋 heal good
I found you through Dalton, West Coast Roller and enjoyed you immediately. I'm a ulti topic person but do focus on travel videos. That MRE looked delectable. Eat that before Linda takes it from you.
I started my 2.5 months on the road with gas still only about a dollar higher than pre 2020 price. My last couple fill ups were 5.55 and 5.79 a gallon, basically doubled in price. Oddly, small rural stations had the cheapest fuel. Love's was always decent. I'm still getting back into the home again groove. The cat has accepted me back. 2. Dozen roses convinced Kelli to take me back. All is good. You guys take care.
Glad the roses worked. Linda's moving around now so it won't be too long before we can go somewhere.
Love the term "Life crafting". I too am considering short trips closer to home. We enjoy local history so I have been reading a lot. Whether it's a long weekend or just a day trip, our area here in western New York has plenty to keep us entertained without breaking the bank buying gasoline. Great video.
Whenever people think of New York they usually only think of the city, but I understand that some parts of the state are beautiful.
Nice video Rick, I really enjoyed it.
I find all your video interesting. Life Crafting, I like it!

You and Jo Ann are Life Crafters, too. Thanks, JT.
Good video Rick. You always make a great one. I would be interested in Montana. Especially day to day living and simple camping. I live in western NY and any description would be nice.
I love Steve, lol. I love Montana as well, trips from your state would be great I think, I don't blame Linda at all. I probably wouldn't ride one after that either :)
I enjoy your videos and you won my loyalty when you shared the type of whiskey Evan Williams and a cigar. I have been drinking Evan and smoking cigars since the mid 70’s, the whiskey enhances the cigar taste and I don’t care about the price Evan is just good drink.
Thank you for what you do and share.
