Back during the Great Recession wife and I were going all over the mid-west picking up used travel trailers (needing work) to fix and sell to people needing a place to live. Loads of fun trying to find what was wrong and working on them. Made a little money but we kept pricing low to help people out. After that adventure you couldn't pay me to take a new travel trailer: no matter the brand they are all built cheap and basically junk. Key to keeping one in decent shape is keeping it under a rain proof cover and keep them off of salt treated roads.
I grew up drinking coffee with my grandparents. Grandma liked it black, grandpa had to have his cream and sugar. I would sit on grandpa's lap and we would dunk Rippin' Good Windmill Cookies and eat them. By the time I was 6 or 7 I'd just start ordering coffee at whatever restaurant we were at. More than once the waitress would look sideways at me. Grandpa would just smile say, "That's what the boy wants." I should say grandpa drove a truck his whole life. He learned how in the CCCs and when he was drafted in WWII his small size made him a perfect candidate for the air corp as either a ball or tail gunner. But as he already had the skill and experience in construction and driving heavy equipment they put him in an engineering battalion instead. He retired from CF in 1979 without ever having an accident.
have a 1400 goal zero power station. wife and I tent camp, we use rechargeable led lights and a few rechargeable batteries from goal zero. works good for us.
That beautiful sunrise and the frost was worth getting up, right? Then you get hit by Alfred Hitchcock's birds🤣. Change out the bulbs for LED. I did it with my old camper and they are awesome. Stay safe and God bless.
Deep inside you're a proud parent. Great that you had the wife in the last video. Thanks for the setup with the 📸. That's a lot of work setting it up and then going back to pick it up. We appreciate it a lot. Mr SCHIMDT you are blessed. B SAFE sir. 🦌
Glad the battery worked for you. Maybe you need led light bulbs. Aren’t they supposed to be more efficient? Hope Troy gets his deer. I love good venison but I no longer hunt either. Uber dad is a good man and I can tell he loves his grandson. Y’all stay safe and havagudun.
You can change the bulbs out for the new fangled ones that don't take so much juice. Lots of UA-cam camping folks do that the very first thing when they purchase older campers. The new bulbs help with off grid living.
Please use some larger speaker wire in your 20A circuit. I would recommend at least 18AWG wire. Remember that 20A @ 12V only allows about 240 watts of power consumption. The small wire will have more voltage drop and will get hotter than larger wire.
I had a friend post on Facial Book once about drinking black coffee. She said those that put stuff in their coffee don't like coffee. Well I informed her that is not true. Everyday of my life I make a 12 cup pot of Folgers coffee on the stout side. You can't see through my coffee, I like it strong. But, the first cup I put 2% milk in it and being diabetic I add two packs of Nutrasweet, the only sweetener I like. The second cup get one pack of sweetener and very little milk. The third cup is BLACK and the little bit left in the pot goes in my cup BLACK. Yes, sometimes I drink the first cup BLACK. So those that say you have to be a man to drink black coffee, WRONG. It is all about taste and you get the same caffeine. Try it again Homer. Mix what you like and enjoy the coffee. You are right again. Coffee is much better for you than soft drinks.
When I went in the Navy at 19 yrs old I would only drink coffee with lots of cream and sugar. The ship would supply us with all the coffee we wanted but no cream or sugar, since then it’s black coffee for me and at 74 yrs of age it will stay that way.
That's the only way I drink coffee ever since I was a baby My uncle gave me the first teaspoon of coffee and it's supposed to be in the teens Xmas weekend in GA and I hope it snows great video and keep up the good work God bless from GA and happy holidays
Hated coffee when I was in high school, college and 2 part time jobs and 1 full time job, I started drinking coffee ☕️ at first I had to have milk and a lot of sugar.. then one day I didn’t have time for my usual and had black.. it was so bitter, but then it wasn’t to bad. I drink black coffee now and sugar in my tea 🫖 not real sugar, not that pink wrapper either.. 🤣 On one hand ✋ it seems that you was getting bored at home, on the other you looked really restless 🤔 Next year Troy, they better watch out next year 🦌🦌🦮🐕🦺🦮👍🥶🥶🥶
KURT COOL VIDEO GOOD JOB ON CAMPER ! COFFEE YEA ALL WAYS ! BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE ! HOPE TROY & GRANPA GET A BIG ONE 👍 BLACKSTRAP YUM YUM 😋 ENJOY BE BLESSED ! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU & YOUR FAMILY ! 🎄🎄🎁🎁🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏
I’m a driver and I like my coffee mostly cowboy black {mud} but once in a while I put little bit of creamer to the point of its slightly darker then my skin which am Native Indian . And little bit of sugar
Fun vlog. Thx 4 taking us along. I have heard deer season us alittle off this year. Best of luck 2 the fellas. B safe & stay warm. I like your pop up truck camper Kurt.
Don't use speaker wire for electric wire get automotive wire. Speaker wire is not rated for that. Glad Troy and your dad are having a good time hunting. Be safe out there
I drink black coffee...with lil sugar! One time i sneezed whilst pouring sugar and dumped god knows how much sugar it, and since i was taught waste not want not, i drank it. THEN i got stuck out on i-44 during a snowstorm that caused a multi vehicle pileup for HOURS! I was shakin and rattlin around sittin there more than that old long nose Pete was on a potholed hardpack road! But....i was awake!
He will get his deer. Glad the pop up is working out for you. Yuck black coffee. I use to drink black.coffee for a while then I ended up with ulcers and bleeding ones at that. Went to the doctored stuff no issues since adding some cream to it.
Whats Troy hunting with? The other day you mentioned a shotgun. What do you guys prefer 00 buckshot or slugs? In this video you mentioned something about a 350... isn't that what you were hunting with...F350🤣 When you do hunt do you have a preference as to a weapon or a caliber?
Yt will demonetize any dead animal or gun shots anyway. There is talk of them demonetizing Christmas videos as well. That's why most of us have gone to rumble, too much political drama on yt. What's got ya so blah ? I drink coffee, but it has non dairy creamer, nothing else though. Black coffee doesn't have "foam" and usually comes out of a pot, that looked like a capuchino (kids drink) Be safe (it's Melissa btw) still haven't heard from speedy, is he okay? 🙏
Can't get enough of that that powerstroke engine in your pickup, Schmidt.
I remember the failed coffee experiment phase........😁😁😁

Troy can name the mouse Mr. Jingles, from The Green Mile movie 😁
In the camper switch all the lights to led and that will lower the draw substantially. You can also get dimmable led lights

Snow and real cold all week long north west Iowa this week. High wind and -18 below zero at tines

Those crapping on you truck birds, are Cedar Waxwings. They always travel in a group.

That cut for the dirt road over the hill is pretty impressive for a dirt road.
LED light bulb will reduce the wattage of those lights a lot.

Loess Hills are beautiful and I am sure lots of deer live there.
Black coffee for me no sugar water
Anything else is abuse to the coffee I always say
Cool!
I enjoyed the video. Thanks!!
Hope troy gets his first deer and see you next time
Have fun hunting
Troy and gtanpa👍👍
🍭SWEET🍭👍🏼🎄
The bulbs can be 25 watts each
Whats Troy hunting with? The other day you mentioned a shotgun. What do you guys prefer 00 buckshot or slugs?
In this video you mentioned something about a 350... isn't that what you were hunting with...F350🤣
When you do hunt do you have a preference as to a weapon or a caliber?
Kurt your not a morning person you just haven’t went to bed yet 😛😛😛.
It's because you are changing your routine and if you become a morning person that's scary
👍🏿👍🏿👍👍
Yt will demonetize any dead animal or gun shots anyway.
There is talk of them demonetizing Christmas videos as well. That's why most of us have gone to rumble, too much political drama on yt.
What's got ya so blah ?
I drink coffee, but it has non dairy creamer, nothing else though. Black coffee doesn't have "foam" and usually comes out of a pot, that looked like a capuchino (kids drink)
Be safe (it's Melissa btw) still haven't heard from speedy, is he okay? 🙏
Forgot to mention, supposed to be extremely cold next week, like below freezing 🥶 get those diesel heaters out.
