      No problem. I was watching video's on rural Kansas towns that are in the decline and watching my washing machine to see if it's going to leak.

      No need to apologize. Just happy to be able to watch another of your videos. Liked the editing of you going back to Jen each time to see what she was up to that day. Hope you are still making good progress.

    It's crazy that this popped up. I live in Rocky Ford. The algorithm is crazy.

      I tagged these with the location I was in and they seem to weigh that pretty heavily as far as showing folks videos on the Home Screen. I’ve noticed a lot of new folks finding them that way

    Jen, glad to see you’re taking the time to heal your body. And I must say you are a very bright light in an otherwise dark world we live in.
    It will be sad to see you go, and I wish you the very best.

    I got caught in that hailstorm too. I was just outside Kremmling, Co when it hit. I am walking west to east and will be in Breckenridge tomorrow and Pueblo on the 25th. Our paths almost crossed. 👍

    Hi Taters hope being out of the heat and having all the water and good food you can eat has you back to normal. Not surprising the water is bad after decades of pesticides herbicides and fertilizers applied to mile after mile of fields. Everyday for the past week my suggested UA-cam shorts has a thumbnail of Taters crossing the bridge into Harper's Ferry in the storm, love it and we will miss you until your next appearance 😎✌

    You might want to consider getting Jenn to a Urgent Care clinic if any are around. That many days of dietary distress from dehydration are had to fix without a saline iv. It is amazing how better you feel after the fluids.

    No fun having stomach issues on a trip. I went to Hong Kong with a friend who was from there, had a taste of fish head soup, got "stomach issues". I had a zero day myself and my friend got some "medicine" for me. I opened up the little bottle, gave it a sniff - looked over at him - sniffed again, "Smells familiar." I said. Looked at the ingredients and I saw the word, "creosote". Yep, smelled like a telephone pole. They were tiny pills, took one and it actually helped. Now, I'm not saying to lick a telephone pole, but it must of had just enough "medical quality" creosote to kill whatever was in me...or, it cleared up on it's own.😁 Stay safe out there.

    A genius idea, a UA-cam channel devoted to people posting videos of their illnesses and people giving medical advice in the comments. What could go wrong? You're welcome!

    Perhaps previous hikers or "wanderers" had used their stoves in the bathroom or room, so she wanted to be sure! And yes, I blame the heat and dehydration as much as a stomach bug. They are all related. Sorry! Skip and hike on! Tortoise

    Prayers answered that you took a break,its in your lymph system( swollen glands )now so whatever you can do to flush it out that will assist your body in getting rid of the toxins.Even when feeling so ,you are the ultimate hostess,making sure the storm torn hiker has hydration products waiting.Matt your guardian angel is working overtime to keep you going,to keep you safe.May your food and rest heal and recharge you both.Boy John Denver fooled lottsa people with that Colorado Rocky mountain high song ...but cows and animals need to eat.Corn must grow,and wheat ,soybeans and .. pumpkins.Hopefully the changing scenery wont be too cold when you hit that dividing line and you could enjoy being out in the sun.
