- Join Kenny of All Trades as he embarks on a solo camping adventure in heavy winds. Experience the thrill of truck camping and dry camping while braving the elements. Watch as Kenny navigates through strong winds, creepy sounds, and the possibility of encountering Bigfoot.
I hope you don't mind that generic 1st paragraph. It's important to get all those keywords in the right places. Now for the real description.
First off, Toby's neuter went great. You wouldn't even know he saw the vet today. I'm confident he will be out camping next week.
This weekend started out Friday after work. I headed into Cass County looking for a remote dispersed campsite. I was talking with Jack, from Tiny Cabin Life. He was telling me about an area with major historical significance. I had done some research and was excited to share the story. However, I found some literature that said the area was closed to the public. I contacted the National Forest to inquire about the property. Initially they said the land was off limits because it was no longer public, however I have plate maps that showed differently. So now I'm waiting on the Forest Curator to get back to me. I completely understand how significant and important this land is, and I know they don't want it to be disrupted in any way. I hope they understand that I would be nothing but respectful and I think it's important that we don't forget the history. The story of these forests goes back many, many, years. Wars have been won and lost on this soil. It important we don't forget how we got to where we are today. Unfortunately, the Chippawa National Forest took the location off their website, it now says the location is unavailable. Maybe one day I'll be able to share the story with you.
After finding occupied campsites I decided to continue north. I ended up at a dispersed campsite near the Lost 40. This campsite is not easy to use. It nowhere close to level, and the actual site is on top of a hill. But if you can manage those issues the payoff is fantastic. The site from the hill is beautiful. This place is really remote. I found it a few years ago. It was once listed on the Forest website as a dispersed campsite, but not any longer. They also took sign that says it's a Dispersed site. There is no cell service in this area so doing research online while driving through the forest is impossible. Toby and I went on a hike Saturday, and I found another old campsite. This one would be even better then where I was. I think I'll go back there with a tent on day.
This site was the location of the "Whoop, Whoop" sound. It was almost 2 years ago when I heard it. It came from across the trail. Oddly enough, Toby was staring across the trail for a good part of the weekend. You can see it often on camera. I bet he spent hours with all his attention focused on the woods across the trail.
I had one weird experience. I didn't talk about it on camera. I didn't want to think about it or give it any attention. I knew that it would go to my head and id want to leave early.
Here is what happened. Saturday night I went to bed late. I tried to get all the footage uploaded and put in order for editing. It was around 1am when I started to wind down. I went to the lake to set up the camera for the shot of the stars, nothing seemed out of place and i didn't get any creepy vibes. I had no problem falling asleep that night. It was about 430am when I woke up. I was really cold. I reached for more blankets and looked up to see if Toby looked cold. That is when I noticed my camper door was hanging completely open. Toby was sleeping at the dinette, that's where he always lays. The wired thing is the screen door was closed but the main door was open. If you know about camper doors, you know the main door and the screen door are attached together. I still don't know how the two doors became separated. Both doors were closed when i went to bed......I don't know... But I do need to get the lock fixed sooner than later.
Its Monday Night at 1230 and I'm just getting the description done for this video...I don't have the thumbnail made yet and I have to leave for work in 6 hours...I'm not getting a Patreon account set up for this video. But hopefully this week I'll find time.
Thanks for following along. Toby and I will see you again next week!
This last paragraph is also for the search results. I want to go full time truck camper living so one day I can go camping in the worst snow storm. But even though camping in an extreme blizzard can be fun, its nothing compared to the excitement of camping in abandoned places. The bottom line is whether I'm camping in winter snow storm, trying to figure out how to stay cool truck camping, or solo camping in heavy rain I'm doing what I love. - Розваги
The Patreon will be set up real soon! It will be free for everyone to join. This way I will have an option for people to support the channel if they choose. But the content will not be limited to how much you are able to donate. I'll let you know on the next video if it up and running.
Kenny
Love this!❤
Count me in as a paying subscriber, and do keep up the good work, brother.
Very nice
Great ❤️
Stalking your page for the Patreon info….. I will sign up!
My husband asked me what I was watching? I said a guy camping. Does something scary happen? No, he's just camping. Does he get lost in the woods? No, he's just camping. Huh? Just really peaceful and soothing.
I love it!
Lol....I said the same thing!
Bigfoot, I wouldn't camp overnight, you are in there home, you went under a bend,you are a brave guy
Kenny, I've commented before. I'm an ex construction worker turned truck driver, I'm kind of a hard man. Your videos have softened me in a way I can't explain. Thank you
After thirty years in the military, I pray that someday I can be in your shoes. I wish I could be softer. These videos help...more than Kenny realizes.
@curly1167 I've worked in construction for 25 years, I don't see myself as a tough guy, but I really appreciated Kenny's attitude and demeanour. He is just a cool guy with a cool way of showing his life. I've not had the easiest of times over the last 5 years due to health (hip surgeries)
Love your videos! Your my #1 channel on UA-cam. What a great poem! It said it all. You're a one in millions please keep up the great work.
Seems like a nice enough place. Would of been super if the winds would of died down. Even so Toby looks relaxed. B safe in u travels.
Thank you so much. The videos are kind of like therapy for me as well. I started the channel to take me out of my comfort zone. I had just left the police department when I started the channel. I was looking for something to light my fire again. One day, I realized I wasn't the same person I once was. I had no empathy, no emotions, and no patience. I was suffering from night terrors and undiagnosed PTSD. I would stay awke at night and stew on calls and incidents that were years old. I was secretly going through a lot and never could ask for help. One day, while backgrounding a few new Officers, during the interview process, I saw a spark in their eyes. I knew i once had that spark. I thought i was gonna make a difference once too. But I realized my spark was gone. I had nothing left to give. I needed to get out before my old self had completely disappeared. Mandi was a really big supporter and assured me I was making the right decisions.
The channel was a way for me to keep challenging myself. I'm not a big people person and never shared much of myself. Every week, when I press record, I challenge myself to step out of my comfort zone.
I guess what you are seeing every week is me trying to heal myself. I'm glad that comes through in the videos and helps others relax.
I think the decision to accept some money, is accepting your succes in building a channel that viewers want to be a part of. Congratulations on 3 years!
A hammock, a dog, and nature..does it get any better than that! Great video Kenny! Hi Toby!!!
Awwwwwww Toby in the Hammock with you. So cute. I love how Toby has has own camping chair and you always make him feel so comfy cozy. The food looked amazing.
Kenny, Never turn down money. If you do you are telling the universe you don’t want it. Money is a gift that people who have it want to share it with you. So accept the money with gratitude. You provide us with entertainment. You do a great job with your videos. Think of it as your reward for all your hard work.
Since I am from the south, You have opened my eyes to the beauty of your state. Keep it up. We all appreciate your efforts.
Thank you Kenny
Exactly this. The Universe hears you. Put your intentions & desires out there and you shall receive. But out your gratitude out there too. And always, always keep putting out the good Karma.
It's all energy. Good energy attracts good. Keep the cycle going. 🙏
Thank you. I appreciate that.
I really appreciate all the encouragement!
They are called Grifters. Satan works his magic. They lure you in and take your money while they get rich but worship Satan.
Toby is so mellow but also very alert. He is always looking around checking for dangers. You dont have to worry about anyone sneaking up on you! Great c.hannel
Toby isn't lazy...he is a Master at conserving his energy for Fun! Thank You for sharing this Amazing Adventure with us!
This is my second video of yours I’ve watched, your soothing voice and the mellow music calms my heart and soul. I’m a man of many trades too, farmers son, Marine veteran, auto mechanic turned truck driver and a working geologist. Later a state police officer, criminal investigator and avid camper-your easy style helps me deal with those pesky ghosts and ghouls of my past law enforcement life. Thanks for the un-intrusive Therapy my new friend!
I really appreciate that. The woods are therapy for me as well. We are brothers in LE. I got out two years ago. The night terrors and undiagnosed PTSD was wrecking me. Mandi, my girlfriend, said I was no longer the person I once was. My empthey was gone, and my emotions were numb. But now you understand why I try so hard to get as far away from people as possible every week.
That looks like heavenly paradise to me. I should start going camping by myself too. Looks peaceful.
Ohhhh I love the poem!!! Made me tear up too! The music you added made me feel so peaceful and serene!!! 😊❤. Thank you for sharing! 👍🏼🙏🏼
That poem fits you, you are a blessing
Thank you very much 😊
Hello, from a fellow truck camper owner. We have a Ranger Solo Stove that we store in our truck cab. So far, we’ve never smelled it in the truck. We do wrap it up in a plastic bag before putting it back in the carrying case so that may help. Just a few tips we got from a veteran RVer that we’ll pass on to you… The firewood needs to be lower than the air vents in order to reduce the smoke. And you don’t ever want the inside of it to get wet. We bought a 10 gallon metal trash can at Tractor Supply. The lid fits perfectly over the fire pit. When we’re ready to call it a night, we just put the lid over it so we don’t have to worry about rain. My husband and I look forward to your videos each week. We live in Alabama, but his parents live near the Boundary Waters in Lake County. Beautiful scenery up there!
Thank you for the tips! I like the idea of the trash can cover. I will have to pick one up. Thanks for watching!
Nothing compares to camping with your dog / and girlfriend or wife … makes it more epic
So here's the thing: you're not asking for help. You're just making it easy for people to offer thanks for your content if the feeling moves them and they're able and inclined to do so. I completely get where you're coming from: I also dislike asking for help. I've hated getting unemployment in the past even though I've paid into it for 45 years and counting. I currently have a fulltime job which would make me and mine pretty comfortable in much of the country but I live in the metro DC area and support four other people. Just a regular person running the usual roach errands to make ends meet. I'm currently making use of a food pantry because we're food insecure. So lots of ends and not much meeting. It's tough out there. I'd still give you a little cash if I could afford it as your demeanor and treatment of others and your relentless search weekly for a great place to camp brings me happiness.
Looking forward to your next video. Plus you got a three day weekend coming up!
Thank you for that.
Kenny,
The final 8 minutes of this video gives me hope for the human race.
I've gone through some major life changes over the past year or so, and I've been blessed to have The Lord (and the universe) send you my way. It's an honor to know you, and to (hopefully soon) become a paying subscriber of yours. You deserve it.
Thank you so much for everything that you do. Live your best life, always, and "see you down the road".
Namasté. 🌸
I really appreciate that. And I know not everyone has the means to support monetarily, so I'll have the content free for everyone on Patreon. I'm just opening the door for the people who have soled about sending cash for fuel and upkeep costs. I don't want anyone to feel like they are not welcome in this community. Everyone is welcome to watch and follow along.
Tobby is such a sweetheart. Good move.
Kenny the poem brought tears to my eyes as well. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures. God bless you!
Congrats on three years Kenny! I have been watching you since near the start of your channel and have recently gotten back into catching up with your videos. I didn’t know until now how much your stories and community means to me. I have never met you but feel so connected and comfortable when I get to join you on your adventures. Sending you and Toby the most love I can my brother. Looking forward to keeping up with the channel as it grows even more! Be well all
I really do appreciate that. It's been fun. I go back and watch the old videos every one in a while. It's fun to see how far the channel has come.
Waking up and finding your camper door wide open must have been a creepy experience considering what you already encountered previously at that location. You recently mentioned motion detectors. This would be a good argument in favor. Also maybe a couple of game cams. You do a lot of outside cooking. It could be interesting to see the visitors to your campsite after you turn in!!!!
O do really need game cams. That has to happen this summer. It would be cool to see the critters that come in at night.
I agree
I was watching you "unbox" that stove/smokeless firepit whatever it is and said "That's an awful lot of pieces." Then you said "there's a lot of pieces in here" and I laughed my head off. You guys are great! I'm new to Minnesota and found your channel while looking for places to do dispersed camping (where I don't have to listen to children scream...I'm glad the kiddos have fun at the campsites, but listening to the crickets and frogs "scream" is much more what I'm looking for. Thanks for making these videos.
It's Toby Tuesday!! Let's go!!
I love this! Toby Tuesday!
@@mrs.h3 ❤️
Toby Tuesday, I love that, not into Taco Tuesday.
Yes! Perfect. Toby Tuesday it is.
@@genieabbi2531 ❤️
Kenny I am a regular viewer but i dont comment most of the time. Please know how much we love your visits. Your videos were one of the few that me and my mum would watch together. My mum died May 8 2024 and i couldnt watch till this week. This video was very healing and I thank you so much for that. I hope doing Patreon helps you to keep doing these videos. Thank you
Sorry for your loss. Kenny does have a calming & healing effect on me too. It's like he's just an extension of the nature he allows us to go to with him.
Sorry for your loss 🤗.
Mum's will always still be around, she will be in your heart and watching over you when u sleep. She will never stop being your mum 😚. God bless.
I'm a 70 year old great grandma, I miss walking through the woods, one of my favorite things.
I'm very sorry for your loss. You have my deepest condolences. I hope the video gave your mind a tiny escape.
@aliceblanton4911 I'm happy to bring you along into the woods here in Minnesota every Tuesday evening. I appreciate you watching.
A Big man with even a Bigger Heart. Thank you for doing your videos for us .
I appreciate that
Good stuff. You do a really good job of connecting with the audience with your videos.
Funny story, a few months ago my two year old and I were about to watch some videos on UA-cam. I ask her what she wants to watch and she says something that sounded like "the man with the camper." I asked her "Do you mean Kenny of All Trades?" She answered affirmitively and began to shout "Kenny of All Trades!" I think I may have watched only one of your videos with her previously.
I have not been to Lost 40 yet- it has been on my list of places to get to in Chippewa.
That is so cute. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face this morning.
That's the most awesome thing I've heard, such an adorable little girl.
Kenny does have a calming way about him, doesn't he? I think he's pretty cool, and the dog Toby is awesome as well.😊
Toby cherishes his sleep!
Convratulations Kenny on you're 3 years, it's always a pleasure to watch you're videos & with Toby he's getting much bigger now he is a good companion to you on you're trips. The poem that you read out was awesome it brings, tears to you're Eyes. It was a lovely thing to say about you on you're travels Kenny.. This is one of the best videos out there 🚐
Thank you so much!
What a wonderful poem and do true❣️🙏❣️
Wow great poem Jermey and Jody very nice and happy birthday 🎈🎂 to ur channel
Happy 3 year anniversary Kenny. I’ve been watching you for about a year now. I’ve gone back and watched a lot of your older videos. I look forward to seeing you and Toby every week. Here’s to watching you for another 3 years to come! 👍🏽
Good advice from Will. I agree. You bring so much to all of us. We should be able to give back.
God bless Kenny.
Thanks!

Keeping it kind and honest is what the whole world needs today, My husband now wants to get us the perfect camper for our own adventures so Thank you also for that 😀 Continue keeping it kind & honest and maybe we will see you down the road. Jeremy & Jody
The poem was wonderful! Everyone has loved it. Thank you guys so much for sending the letter. I really you guys!
Your little black book of viewer letters is a treasure trove of goodwill and creativity, a testament to the community you've built. I dream of having my own collection of uplifting notes in my camper someday, just like yours. Keep sharing your incredible journeys and wise words-you're making the world a better place, one campsite at a time. Be kind. Be honest. I'll see you down the road.
Cheers Jared
I appreciate that.
Beats Netflix. Thanks for sharing your time with us.
Thank you so much! I appreciate your generosity!
Great job Kenny and the people who wrote that poem for u may I say it was well deserved 👏
Hey Buddy, another awesome camping adventure this week. Toby is getting much bigger. Hey when you read the poem sent to you, you were not the only person who got tears in their eyes. I did too because honestly every word written is absolutely true! You're an awesome example of a real honest human. You are loved by so many each and every week and we all want to support you in any way possible just so we can go camping with you Kenny.
Thank you so much for the kind words. It's so encouraging hearing how people enjoy going on these little outings with Toby and me. I really appreciate you!
I enjoy your videos so much. It's so nice to escape to the world of peace, tranquility, and kindness that you bring us every week. It's also different from the world of today with its pressures and where people aren't always so kind. All the best with the Patreon. It's great that people who can give and want to give will be able to.
Congratulations on 3 years!!! That's a big achievement 👍
Thank you so much!
I am really enjoying your trips camping Kenny. Loved the poem you read. So sweet so true.
I love seeing all the gadgets you have while camping. It’s been a good 50 yrs since my camping trips. Wish I’d had some of those things. Heck a camper would have been so nice. We camped went fishing and gold panning. Missing it. Thanks for bringing back all those memories.
That was a cool poem. True words that we all are feeling. We thank you for these videos. Kenny, 3 years congratulations. I'm hoping there's many more to come. And who knows? I might even get to run into you in the woods someday.
Definitely say hi if we cross paths.
Love watching you and Toby. I can’t wait until I’m out there traveling. Patreon is a great idea!!
Omg i told u toby meister is great him on the hammock..lol..i only watch u an jack u 2 r the best...love my serenity..ty an toby docker...hee hee..😊
Good stay! I enjoy watching Toby. Miss my dogs but can’t afford vet bills so I’m solo. No pets yet others make up for not having a side friend. Thanks!
Another Tuesday. Another relaxing camping trip. Thanks for taking us along.
Kenny of All Trades you’re videos are so great, my husband introduced me to you’re channel and I’m so glad he did we watch you every week, you are such a humble person and I always feel so good when I watch you’re videos, thank you for welcoming us into you’re camping life, I hope you have a great day!!!! We sure love watching Toby!!!!!

Thank you so much!
The scenery and sounds of that opening sequence really was beautiful! Kenny, I hope you know how much your videos mean to a LOT of folks. I get so much enjoyment out of you finding the perfect site (away from people!! a kindred spirit!!) and setting up camp and then just enjoying the outdoors. I always enjoy your meal prep and love seeing what you’re having each week. Please keep em coming!
PS Toby is SUCH a good boy!
Woh, what is that tinfoil bag?! I've never seen such a thing , how handy.
Thanks as always for bringing us along , say hi to Toby for me
I never saw them either. Just ordered a package from Amazon.
@@lindalyons6372Ditto! I have never seen them used! Thank goodness for Amazon 😉
The name of the ones I bought were Kingsford. I do like them
Awesome idea with the kabobs. I was thinking of how you could roast a whole chicken that way. Rotate it every so often. Just dont try to use your drill to make it turn. LOL.
Lol. You would be surprised how many people seriously got upset with me coming up with that idea!
Yo Kenny 🎉 Congratulations 🍾🎊 on the 3yr Milestone 🙏🏻. I’ve only been around for I say 6months . I have truly enjoyed watching every video you have on your channel 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻. You are so Kind & Genuine Man . I’m almost jealous of your Peace ✌🏻 within you. I am truly living through the Beauty of your weekends , Thank you 🙏🏻.
I hope Patreon works out for you.
Toby is so Amazing, Beautiful Dog 🐶. So glad you have Him with you to enjoy your Passion.
God Bless you and your Family 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. I will continue to wait for Tuesday 👍🏻👍🏻.
🇺🇸Friend From Georgia 🇺🇸
Thankbyou so much!
Kenny, we just discovered that we were somehow “unsubscribed” from your channel as we went to watch your Tuesday evening posting! We’ve been hearing other UA-camrs warning their subscribers but this really surprised us. No worries … we immediately resubscribed!!
I'm not sure why that happens. It's odd, UA-cam says they dont unsubscribe people. They say the viewers must un-subscribe by accident. But i do find it odd with how many people say they have to constantly hit subscribe. In the video where Mandi and I went on a hike, I lost a bunch of subscribers. Don't get me wrong, every video has a few subscribers drop off. But I usually gain more than I lose. But not on this video. I know it had nothing to do with video, but Mandi took it to heart. I don't know why UA-cam messes around like that.
Let Mandi know that we love the videos with her! Even if she is a little camera shy. 😊. And we love Toby too! Keep it up!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support.
Thanks for the One that wrote that beautiful peace, Thumb's Up too You and Kenny. Kenney your side kick is a smart individual and he'll be great to have around!... Don't rub his head, scratch his chest instead, or rube his upper shoulders? That Dog is smart and a loyal friend, Neat!...
What a beautiful poem that this couple as given to you, I love what you go you take us to places that we will never go do yes , memories to hold Thank you so much for allowing me to travel with you 😊
Wow! What a beautiful poem that pretty much sums up your channel so well! Obviously, you were touched by it just like many of us were. I always look forward to your content and I'm just glad that you finally started a Patreon section so that those of us who love your channel can support you to just keep bringing us more good content from your adventures. This was definitely another great YT vlog! Keep em' coming Kenny!
Alright Alright Alright
YET ANOTHER MOST EXCELLENT VIDEO BY KOAT!!!
Wow, this one was an intimate and touching video! 3 years! Wow how time flies, can’t believe it’s been 3 years!
The poem…I’m was left speechless while wiping tears from eyes! That was such a heartwarming and soul touching poem! I can’t remember who who sent it, but thank you for doing so; I felt it and I felt was part of it!
And Will’s letter, another touch of the soul right there!
I know you are man who doesn’t ask for help, but I’ve told you for awhile now to do what you needed to do to survive in the land of YT…whether it be affiliate links or doing paid promotions or even patreon for that matter! I’m glad to see you stepping out of your comfort zone a little bit and respect you for doing so.
I have enjoyed ever single video you have done over the past there years, I’ve watched you grow as an editor, writer and mature as a YTer and I am proud to call you a friend…hopefully one day I shall have the honor of meeting you! Until then I will live vicariously through you every Tuesday until my dreams of being a nomad come to fruition in a few years!
May the next 3 years be as bountiful for you (and Toby) as the last three years!
Oh yeah, I think Toby’s on the verge of outgrowing his bed pillow! 😀
As always, stay safe out there…..
Lol, I thought u guys had met long ago! Oh well, maybe someday Kenny will hold a camp out weekend and instead of being out camping alone he'll be surrounded by all his subscribers 😱 🫢....😂🍻
@@SpykersB I’ve been following him pretty much since he started…I think I came across like his 10th video or so and believe he was below 1,000 followers. I then proceeded to binge watch all his prior videos and haven’t missed a single episode since. So it feels like I’ve met KOAT several times over throughout the years
Hello, My husband wrote the poem and he did it with such heartfelt emotion, We love Kenny, he can make a bad day happy and he is such a God send to All. God bless, Jeremy & Jody
It was so kind of him! It really means a lot to me. Thank you guys so much for the wonderful letter.
@@KennyOfAllTrades Your Welcome kenny!! My husband is writing a new song dedicated for you and Toby for Toby's 1st Birthday, We look forward to your show every week and I can't wait to see what your cooking on the campfire, I love trying your recipes!! Have a great week and again Thank you so much for who you are. Jeremy & Jody
It was touching to see how moved you were by the poem you read from your viewers. You have a kind heart.
Just watching your video I would not like to be out in the woods alone. Watched your videos before, I Live in the UK London
Awesome and kind poem! You are Blessed. Love your videos! So glad I found you.
Oh Kenney! Sounds like you had a close Encounter with a Squatch those few years back!
What you described is exactly how people describe there Encounters Woops are them communicating! WOW!
Kenny, I totally agree with Will. The Lord wants to use you to continue your blessing us with wholesome content and that we are blessed watching your vids. God bless you bro for such great content. I love your channel and as soon as I get back to working I want to be a supporter of your channel.
I appreciate that
You should be ashamed. Your cooking IS KILLIN ME!!!! I NEED A BIB WATCHING THIS! Yummmmmmmmmmm
Kenny, I think Toby needs a bigger bed!! Happy for your decision to start a patreon. Much respect for you! May you be blessed! Laura, Chad, and our sweet FOT (friend of Toby), Phoebe.
Thanks for taking us with you Kenny. What a great poem. And wow has Toby gotten big.
This will be a nice edition to the long day when my wife & I watch this video this evening. Thanks, Kenny, we always look forward to your new uploads and seeing your new best friend Toby 😊
Bigfoot /sasquatch whoops! Stay safe!!😎👏👏🥰🇦🇺
I cant agree more with that beautiful letter you got I shed some tears as well I havnt been following your videos for too long but have certainly caught up in a short time you and your family are amazing Tony has become a self assured stunning boy it's from the love you guys have showered on him I appreciate your videos so much always leaves me with a smile and ready to tackle the next day blessings to you and yours thankyou for another remarkable video
Love this journey we are all on. We appreciate your hard work Kenny!
Thanks! I appreciate the comment 😊
You are so good at this video making game. Your music, your relaxed state, your filming and drone shots. Every word of that poem is the truth. But you need to quit showing me all the neat gadgets. I need a smokeless fire pit and a percolator now :-) Have a great week Kenny and Co.
Thank you so much 🤗
Hi Kenny Congratulations on your You Tube Channel Success!!! You and Toby are awesome together. I always look forward to your next videos! Keep being the humble person you are and may God bless you !!!!!
Thanks so much!!
The noise you heard before could be the sound of large owls, they make a huge wing noise as they swoop over your head and it does leave a wing percussion noise. We had a couple of owls living near us and it freaked me out at first but you get used to it after you see what it is.
Daaaaad ! Where's my Toby hammock ?
😄
Hey kenny, I am happy to learn that you are going to start a patreon channel. It is obvious from the many letters and encouraging posts that you receive that your subscribers want to be able to show their appreciation and support. As I posted a couple of weeks ago, you are sharing your wisdom, knowledge, skills, and your art. I am not the only one who sees your videos as poetry in motion. How fitting that a gifted subscriber would create his or her own poetry to express his/her appreciation. What a lovely tribute! I always look forward to Tuesday evenings.
Yes, that poem was super special. I feel like I don't deserve all the wonderful things that are said. I'm humbled by all the great comments.
So many things going on in life and with the world it's hard to remember what we can do or have power over only ourselves. It's also hard to remember that everything works itself out In the end one way or another. When you hit that pension.. you will be camping a whole lot more. Maybe then even full time and possibly in other countries like Canada or Mexico 😊
You are right. It always seems to work itself out. Thanks!
“A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others” From my favorite movie............guess which one😁 Kenny you have brought so much joy to people's lives.......Thank you! That fire ring is awesome! It's a bargain for the money. We use to have the boys fix the packet meals each Polar Bear Campout............always a favorite.
No 'whooping or tree knocking?...........darn it!!!" Bigfoot, Sasquatch etc is always interesting to me. Can't say I believe in them................can't say I don't. Between 15,000 and 18,000 new species are identified each year, about half of that is insects though............that's pretty amazing! Have you had a chance to try out the Blue Fox yet on trout or panfish yet? Having running water in the camper does have to seem huge for you. Mr Toby is such a awesome young man. I love watching him kicking back and enjoying the weekend with you.
Kenny, thanks again for bringing us along...............always a good trip!
Trout opened up last week, so it gonna happen soon! I'm gonna try to find a lake for next weekend. I need to find a good spot and make it my own. You know what they say, "there's no place like home".
@@KennyOfAllTrades Especially if your weekend home is a Artic Fox
For sure! Plud I had to get a Wizard of Oz quote in my response somehow. Lol
@@KennyOfAllTrades "Just follow the yellow brick road" Kenny! Just watch out for the flying monkeys though🥵
Kenny, love the area, love the seclusion and love the looks of those kabobs. Hi Toby! Great video my friend. Minnesota is truly beautiful.
Thanks 👍
Oh my gosh I LOVED this video. While you was reading the poem it brought tears to my eyes. I think you are a pretty kindhearted guy that has feelings for everyone and sometimes that’s hard to do. You are going far on UA-cam because you’re honest and kind. Thank you for making my evening. I look forward to Tuesdays. It’s a Kenny video time. Until next week take care. Oh wait I forgot. Give Toby a hug for me he’s such a good boy.
Love your videos Kenny, Toby is such an awesome companion. You both are blessed. I will always refer to Tuesdays as Toby Tuesday from now on. Someone mentioned earlier about being on a fixed income, we are as well, so not sure if we will be able to join you on Patreon. We will still be a UA-cam subscriber though. Congratulations on 3 years. The poem was spot on. Kenny, you truly are a man of God. You honor Him in all your videos. I would say in all you do.. i can assume. You cant fake that. Toby's good nature comes out in response to your good nature. Toby was born to fit in your family and life. Keep being you Mr. Kenny, you make a difference. Your friend Ree
Absolutely. The Patreon will be open and free to everyone! I just want an outlet for people to donate I they choose. I'm not having special perks for people who donate. Everyone is welcome!
Sat down to eat supper & said to Sam (my pup who looks like Toby but is Grey & white) "we can have dinner with Kenny & Toby". Sadly, the video hadn't posted yet. Oh well, it was worth the wait!
I hope you enjoyed both!
@@KennyOfAllTrades 100% as always!
That was a really nice Poem.
I really Love your channel. It so peaceful wherever you set up camp.
I Loved when you were in the hammock and you could hear the birds and right by the water. Just so Beautiful and Peaceful.
My husband and I have a built out Van we go camping in and we love doing what you do. But we live in Canada and I find the states has more Beautiful camping spots then we have where we live. But it's always nice getting out in nature.
Thank you so much!
Loved the poem and it exactly fits you.💙
Thank you for being the gift that you are! The places you share are magical🌻
Kenny,
Awesome video!! My husband and I are supposed to be leaving for camping NOW...
but we wanted to watch your video before we hit the road. ❤
Can't believe how BIG Toby got!! He needs a bigger dog bed. Lol
Your friend Will gave you excellent advice. Thank the Lord for friends like him. Maybe on one of your videos you can explain how becoming a Patreon works.
We love watching you and it is your kind, humble spirit along with the beautiful locations that keeps us watching.
God bless ❤

Absolutely love your content. You are truly a caring human being as we all should be. My husband and I just bought our 1st RV & are getting it ready to start the next chapter of our lives. We are both now retired, kids are grown, and time to get out & enjoy what God has provided us.
Awesome. Have fun and be safe!
Kenny, I beg to differ; I think you will indeed be able to do what you are doing full time. I believe that the early subscribers are far more challenging to attain than the more recent subscribers. In other words I think your channel will snowball in the coming months and years. Your patience will pay off, in ways you never thought possible. Best regards from Stan in Wichita Kansas.
Thank you for the encouragement 🙏
So relaxing, would have loved to see the rain ❤️
Kenny, I so enjoy your videos and always look forward to the next. I gotta tell ya... every time you talk about your hammock, I realize exactly how SOUTHERN I am! It sounds like you say "ham hock"... which in the south is what you put in a pot of beans you're cooking! And a "hammick" is what string up between to trees. LOL it's a southern thing 😂. But I truly enjoy your videos and Toby!! You should make it down to some of our mountains sometime... and arrange a meet and greet for your fans.
Hey Kenny, even though Toby has been camping with you for a few months, we've never seen Toby eat, and you've always enjoyed the delicious food by yourself.🤪
Lol. He does, but I've never given him my food. I feed him Orijen Puppy food. I don't want him to get any bad habits of sneaking food off the table.
I enjoyed tonight's video, Kenny. That cooker was amazing. I think I'll get one for any apocalyptic times ahead. Toby is precious!
Congratulations on 3 yrs. Very nice poem. Thank you
I love your camper it is real nice. I cann't believe it is on the back of your truck it looks so roomy inside
Thanks! It is so comfortable. I love being able to talk a hot shower and crawl into a comfy bed after a long day of walks and sitting around the campfire. It's hard to believe the room there is in a 6.5 foot truck bed.
Another great evening viewing your latest video. Which I had a plate of what you prepared. Kenny you do a wonderful job each and every week sharing your latest adventure. I say go for the advice given. You are a special individual who brings much joy to others. Between videos and work there not much time for anything else is there? One piece of advice take care of yourself and those you love most. Don’t wake up some morning regretting you did not. Peace my friend.
You are 100% correct. That exact thing runs through my mind. I do worry about thay sometimes.
Those smokeless fire pits are designed to work with smaller pieces of wood. You have the length right, the wood should not extend above the lip. The size of the wood will work better if it's slightly bigger around than what one would consider starter pieces. It will burn down to a cooking fire much faster. Yours is a nice size, I have used a bit smaller one in Algonquin Park when they had restrictions on any ground fires during a canoe trip. Portaging a bigger one was not an option. We used dead fall instead of cut wood and it worked great.
I love the way Toby just follows you around. He never lets you out of his sight. I love that he has his own chair by the campfire. Another beautiful video. Thank you.
Toby looks like a king sitting in his chair!❤
Great video. Another dish to try is foil wrapped Hasselback potatoes. Along with a steak, you could definitely turn up your glamping game with that meal. I look forward to seeing more video and they definitely are making me want to haul my camper up north to some of those forest campgrounds.
Looking forward in supporting you in Patreon. my family and I enjoy every Tuesday after homework and dinner we get out popcorn and enjoy your video🤩
Awesome! Thank you!
