    “This is a little bit of alright”. Love it. Nothing like experiencing a big storm protected only by a thin piece of nylon. Surprising how comfortable one can be. What a beautiful place. Thanks for taking us along.

    I've never camped out during a thunderstorm before although many a time it rained where I camped on the Olympic Peninsula. Your cozy tarp-covered area was a good idea so you could still enjoy the outdoors under shelter rather than spend the whole time in your tent. Once when I put up a tarp over my tent I went on an hour hike and when I returned the tarp was full of rainwater. So I had to lift my Northface tent and carry over to a dryer, higher area and then I redid my tarp. I was inexperienced with it and cut my finger on my pocketknife! Oh well. Still, it's lovely hearing the raindrops pattering on the tent and the tree frogs peeping in the night. Meanwhile your little campsite with its thunderstorm, owl, and woodpecker provided a nature soundtrack while you made dinner, and read your book, and took in the scenery. Thanks again for bringing us along on another adventure! Jenny USA ⛈🦉🪶🏕

    I was camping on a whitewater rafting trip on the Deschutes River a few years ago with my BF, his dad and brother. We were relaxing in the tent, me reading a book and BF napping, when I glanced over my shoulder out the tent window to see a big black cloud looming across the river. It rolled over top of us, stopped and unleashed thunder, lightning and torrential rains for about 20 minutes. We were eyeballing the concrete vault toilet as a shelter if we started getting lightning in camp. The river turned to chocolate milk and the bottom of our tent did get wet until the water soaked into the ground. Most frightening 20 minutes I've ever experienced out in nature.

    I was so moved by your camping experience on the Island. What a great time you had. I'm turning 70 very soon and each time I have an opportunity to watch another camper my heart soars like an eagle. The scenery was amazing that you were surrounded by. So quiet and pristine. I'm so glad I found your channel. I will start at the beginning of your videos and catch up with you now. Blessings, Teri and my dog Maddie

    That was a delightful video, Wendy. I'm an avid camper and I just bought my first alcohol stove. Got it in the mail today and haven't tried it out yet, so I was delighted to see you using yours. Yes, I've heard that they take longer to heat stuff, but seems so convenient. The island and your campsite were very nice. What a great campsite right by the beach. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Wisconsin, USA.

    What a great adventure you shared. Good job on your tarp set up. Even with the wind it served you well. I agree it’s always worth the effort to hang a tarp just in case. Nice choice on your dinner meal. Thanks Wendy

    Thanks again Wendy for another great trip. This bought memories back as my husband and I passed by Newcastle Island before crossing the Straits of Georgia, on a sailing holiday we did a few years ago. The beach views and skies after the storm were amazing. Vancouver Island is such a wonderful place, you don’t have to travel too far to explore its beauty. Best wishes to you from North Wales❤

    Wendy - 'traveling' with you is definitely always an adventure and I loved every moment, including the thunder storm this time, - I am thankful no great winds came with it, or a heavy downpour to 'wash you away' - - as usual, I am happy to do all this from the comfort of my easy chair. 😃👍🙏
