    I worked all day in the factory. When Kelly said she’s making dinner tonight I was genuinely excited as if I was going to eat that good meal tonight too.

    Watching on a big screen, the sparkles in Cody’s beard in the dark look like tiny twinkling stars; the trees reflecting on the water like a beautiful oil painting; Kelly putting as much love and pride in her housekeeping and cooking as if she’s in the grandest of homes. Oh look, she is, the great outdoors.
    Thank you! ⭐️

    We lived in a tent for 2 summers in Alaska with teenagers. It was the best years of our lives and the teens agree😀 . We camped on 5 acres of raw land, so we only packed up in winter. We now live in a tiny dry cabin in Alaska. You two are living the life, it is awesome. So many wish they could but for some reason feel they can’t. Good to see you doing it.

    We have the peepers here in Wisconsin, but they dont start chirping until May. Right now they're under the frozen water. We have 20-30 degree weather still & snow on the ground. Looks so nice & warm there where you are. The tortilla casserole looked yummy. Take care & stay safe.

Jolley Campground in Alexandria, KY) surrounds A.J. Jolley Lake and there are a TON of peepers there in the spring. One of my favorite things in the world is listening to them while sitting around a campfire. Thank you for bringing me some springtime joy on this cold March evening here in Kentucky. Happy camping yall!!!

    Cody, if you love Cypress trees, you will really love Magnolia Ridge campground on Steinhagen lake in Texas, just south of the Rayburn reservoir you were at. It’s near Woodville, Tx, and has four camping areas, each about a mile apart. We rode bikes there, and there were only four campers in the entire park! The entire lake has nothing but Cypress trees.

    I have a small van/suv cargo type vehichle that I use for camping. I'm thinking about buying a good tent to use in the summer time at campgrounds because with a tent you can unzip the windows and have much better air circulation even though I have fans in my van. And it would just give me another alternative. I would have more room in a big tent.

    Caddo is such a cool lake, I think it's one of the only natural lakes in Texas and you have to see this place in the spring/summer. So spooky at night with the spanish moss and all the animal sounds there. The lake itself is amazing too and recommend you having GPS on you any time you get in the water as it's very easy to get disoriented and lost on this lake.
