Roadside Reflections: Heading Back from My Northwest Travels

- Although the content is nothing unusual for me, how the video evolved certainly is. The original working title was "Anger", as I lashed out at whoever destroyed the trees around one of my favorite public campsites. The result was very unsettling, and at the midnight hour (literally) I completely changed the tone through editing. I feel at lot better with the results! From my series on Northwest Canada travels. No voice-overs or added music, and all background sounds are exactly as recorded.

I feel I'm to old to travel, 71, the last time I went anywhere was before my wife died back in 2006. Back before I married her I had 'pipe dreams' of getting a old school bus and fixing it up to just travel. That never happened. Now my body is telling me why it wasn't the best idea to work at a place 40 years with cement floors, so even walking now is sometimes a challenge for me.
That is why I enjoy 'riding along' with Slim and his camera. @Slim, so thank you for taking us along, I'm able to see places and sights that I would never see, thank you.
Oh man don't say you are too old! 75 next birthday and this winter will be my 2nd in my camper with my little pup out in the desert. Last year before I started this I was really scared about being too old to do this. Thing is you better do it now, we are not getting any younger, looking forward to doing this as long as I am physically able and can remember where I'm heading too, lol.
@@terrybrowning3542 What I didn't put in there, Besides having trouble sometimes walking, most of it is from bad knees, both, it hurts like a knife if I try to kneel, if that wasn't enough, bad shoulders, trying to life even 40 pounds just using my shoulders, I can't, again to much pain. Said all that to say this, for me, I'm to old to do something like this. I'll enjoy Slims videos.
N8pu, it is not the number of years that prevents you from creating adventures, it is how you treated your body. I am 75 & can do most of what I did at 40 or 50, only shorter & not as fast......keep that in mind for next time, if you believe in re incarnation....God Bless
@@terrybrowning3542 Totally agree - I am a couple of months short of 69, with some health issues, but my dreams of traveling the world solo are what keep me going. Worked outdoors as a wildlife biologist most of my life, often alone in remote areas, and that is when I am happiest. Keep it simple, and keep going - it's the journey that is important, no matter how far or how long it takes. To be alive is to be in motion and change. Best wishes to you and your pup from Alaska.
@@dave_n8pu I have very bad knees and shoulders, too - really helped by cutting almost all carbohydrates out of diet (cause joint inflammation). Check out ketogenic diet: high fat, moderate protein, very low carbs - think steak and eggs, but no ice cream, bread, cookies, chips. I'll bet you will be pleasantly surprised at how quickly that joint pain will subside - not disappear - will still hurt some to lift above shoulders and kneel on something hard, but won't hurt at night or when getting up from chair, climbing stairs, etc.
I've said it once, I'll say it again, Slim Potatohead's the Mister Rogers of the UA-cam Camping world. When Slim sits down & talks to us, he dispenses an easy, clean & positive wisdom of the camping life. I however, highly doubt Slim's going to break out in "Won't you be my Neighbor" !
I always thought he sounds like Marlin Perkins
Indeed
More like Rick Steves
Well, I never made that connection on my own, but, if so, the connection is because he's alone, he's kind, and he's sharing something enjoyable.
The wisdom of a man who is comfortable with himself.
Yes you hit the nail on the head very well said
Simple but true..
Agree 100%
Indubitably...
The whole Arctic series was great. I agree Slim, time to head south...Arizona south.
@Barry Beatty With the virus numbers going back up it is best to
not cross boarders and spread it around.
Canada seems to be making some good choices... Stay vigilant, stay safe All.
Screw the borders. Keep up north! Lets see the arctic in winter!!
I learned how to swim in Stanley Park in Vancouver in 1962. So funny that there is an IPA named after the park. I hope you enjoyed it Slim.
Thank you, Slim, for documenting your adventures and making all of us your traveling companions. I too travel solo for the same reasons you do; to come and go as I please, experience the wonders of the world and meet interesting people along the way.
Slim, thank you so much for "taking us with you" on your adventures. These are quite therapeutic, especially during these difficult times.
I can whole-heartedly agree. Slim's fine little videos make my week a lot better with his shots of nature and his astute observations about camping with a leave nothing but your footprints attitude.
Where I live in the beautiful state of Colorado I see many of my favorite campsites being trashed out. It's sad but true that so many people are so disconnected in respecting others and the land. I for one keep praying and hoping for humanity to respond to these troubling times in positive ways instead of resorting to anger and destruction. Happy Trails to all.....
@@ladikmk This is an ongoing trend. The good news is there is another ongoing trend ... RVers/campers picking up the garbage left behind by the disrespectful.
Maybe, if they come up with a vaccine, more people will stay home.
It's not only campsites being trashed. The same people throw their beer cans, fast food packaging and anything else along the road and in the ditches around here. There is a certain class out there that do not value or appreciate Mother Earth. It's an outrage!
@@jimchristensen965 cigarette butts, that's nasty. I totally agree with you. If we didn't have the planet, we wouldn't be here!
I like your musings. You are living the lifestyle you want. You have a ton of subscribers, and I imagine many of them would like to live they lifestyle you do. Your videos are always professional quality, and your narratives very listenable. Please keep up what you are doing! 👍👍👍
Solid respect for your choices and reasons on not having a dog.
Also...sleeping with animals in your camper or bed can give humans parasites...many do not understand this..truth be told and have examples..so no thanks!
Not Here ... i totally agree.
dogs are wonderful but i do agree thay are a responsibly btw amazing HQ camera its life like. great video 💜
I'm on team cat as I hate snakes. Call me crazy but I'm not interested in picking up poo bigger than mine.
I’ve always thought it surprising that Slim doesn’t have a pet.
Slim, you made an excellent case for journeying without either 4-legged or 2-legged traveling companions, and also for why you prefer an indoor shower. Even though I don't practice vegetarianism, your culinary selections and preparations aren't boring. Unfortunately, far too many people don't realize that boredom is self-inflicted, which makes it eminently avoidable. Finally, the overall professionalism of your UA-cam videos makes yours a top-tier channel.
Thanks Noah, great words on boredom. I may steal your quote! SP
@@SlimPotatohead Thanks for the feedback, Slim. The boredom information came from a very highly regarded behavioral scientist, and I've passed it on when it seemed appropriate, so feel free to share it at will.
Totally agree on all points. Boredom comes from within, a reflection of the person.
My great great Aunt used to say (I have been told). "Only boring people get bored."
Imagine: Slim, Steve wallis and crazy neighbor camping in winter togather.
That would be an epic awesome thing to watch!!
Add Foresty Forest!

Jeez wasn't trackin but, Lots of Cool vlogging from Up North
@@joinjen3854 he is taking some time off...
@@joinjen3854 He is too boring with his monotone voice.
I agree about the freedom of going alone. I enjoy doing what I prefer when the idea strikes me. I don't enjoy seeking mutual consent for every whim I have. I've gone with others and certainly enjoyed the company. But I felt like I didn't fully enjoy the natural surroundings and focused more on keeping the conversation alive.
Well written Solar Sailor! Too many try to pin "loner" or "recluse" to anyone who appreciates solo travel. They just don't understand the joys of being independent. Thanks! SP
I’ve travelled in large groups and had a nice time with friends, but much preferred very small groups or just one travel companion. But man, there’s just something about travelling all alone that relaxes me and just charges my batteries. Like you said, indulging my whims and focusing on my surroundings, being self reliant and independent. And I truly enjoy a great conversation, but I love silence.travelling alone isn’t isn’t something we do because we couldn’t find anyone to go with, it’s a treat in itself. I don’t do it because I’m sad, I do it because I truly enjoy it.
I had an animal that passed away. I decided then that I had a choice, either going travelling or get another animal. I couldn't see myself doing both. So I'm in the process of getting a different vehicle to start traveling in the Spring of 2021. Thanks for another great video Slim.
Slim, thanks for your videos. I had foot surgery in August so my backpacking, canoe camping and other outdoor activities came to a halt for a while. While recovering I discovered your channel so I have been camping vicariously through you. It's enough to make this long-time tent camper think seriously about a trailer.
On dogs: I am a dog lover, love having my dog camping with me. I also agree dogs can definitely limit your activities. You can't just leave a dog in the vehicle while looking at a museum, eating at a restaurant, etc. On traveling: I am disabled, but still able to travel and camp. Some day I may not be able to do that. Yours, and other peoples videos are a delight to those people who are no longer able to get out and enjoy nature. Thank you for that. I have considered making some videos for disabled people who want to camp.
OMG. I would love that. I'm a nature lover that can't even hike anymore. I vicariously enjoy it through videos these days. I'm thankful for youtube.
@tony smith Im able but too lazy
@@mikeppetabee9352 lol
I think you should do that. Showing others the ways you've overcome and accommodated your disability and made it work on the road could show them your innovativeness that they could apply to their own situation, and get out there and live their lives while they can.
@@Michaelw777.52 I am still thinking about how and where to do it. I hesitate to put it on UA-cam, particularly with all the political censorship they have been guilty of lately.
I totally agree about having shower and no toilet.
Hello, just want to let you know, you have given the best gift of yourself and of the nature you bring to us, I look so forward to your videos for that alone. Thank you for being who you and doing it your way, very much appreciated.
Have you ever noticed that people from the North start out with “what a beautiful day, it’s warm......” and people from the South start out with “ what a beautiful day, it Cool.......” ?
👍😉
Warm to Slim is 30.
@@victormashatt2521 That's freezing down here in Texas.
I remember taking February vacations from New Jersey to South Carolina.
We'd arrive and be so happy to find 60 F temps, and stripping down to short sleeve polos and sweater vests, while locals bundled up in ski jackets and knit caps.
Greetings Slim Potatohead,
🌸Heartfelt thanks are sent your way for sharing your wonderful journeys, and making us feel as if we were actually there. As others have commented, watching your videos are therapeutic and give a strong sense of inner peace as the quality and content of your videos are down-to-earth and exceptional. I enjoy being close to nature and your videos are providing me with great tips to becoming a future solo widow/grandmother traveler; they give in-depth recommendations how to compose with whatever is sent our way.
Look forward to your upcoming videos. Best, 🇨🇦
You're livin the life Slim. Thanks for taking us along! As far as being a solo camper, I'm with you. I get along very well with myself. Really enjoyed your pep talk at the end. So true, we really do need to get out and enjoy nature. Thanks Slim!
i love those dehydrated hash browns but i measure out 1 cup dry and put them in a zip lock bag for use another day. thanks for your perspectives on solo travel, it works for me also.
Great advice. Did you read that one Slim?
Really lovely stuff here, my friends. “I’ve learned something on this trip: The world is a beautiful place.” Learning is the act of remembering, and experiencing is the art of learning. Thanks so much for sharing your world, brother. I always feel peaceful after I watch a video of yours. I appreciate you.
Right there with you on the dog situation. I've had three dogs and one cat individually throughout my life. Loved and enjoyed them all, but I'm at a time in my life where I want my complete independence to travel, hike, etc. without the huge responsibility that a pet deserves.
A few days ago, Bing's daily photograph showed a road going downhill beside a river and a tall mountain with jagged peaks. "Alberta!" I thought. "That's Alberta!" When Bing provided the location name, I learned that I was correct. It was, indeed, Alberta. You're a good teacher, Slim. Many thanks for letting me travel with you through these wonderful videos.
Slim, thank you for bringing us along on the journey. The northwest of Canada is beautiful.
Put some dried onion flakes from Costco in the potatoes.. new level unlocked!
Great idea!
thanks for always posting lovely thoughtenducing videos
You’re right. We have to get out there and experience nature. Thank you for this lovely content.
Solitude is terrifying for some folks. Extroverts enjoy other people, and get relaxed in their company. Introverts can recharge their batteries when alone, in solitude. Neither is more correct than the other, and some people, (like my cats) enjoy company at night and solitude during the day.
Thank you Slim... as always it was amazing! I can hardly wait for the next one. So please don't wait too long!
I enjoy living alone for the same reasons SP stated for camping alone. I like being around people for relatively short spells. My batteries are drained when I'm around people and charged when I'm alone. As you stated, nothing wrong with either personality types. But did you ever notice that introverts are more accepting of extroverts than the other way around? They can not fathom why anyone would want to be alone and assume there's something mentally wrong us.
I have three cats. One is an Introvert, another an extrovert, and the third is old and always in my way when I work on the computer or anywhere else.
Thank you for sharing your adventures and your wisdom. I love the simplicity of your travels and the amazing places you visit
Slim, your love for nature and animals really touch me. I feel very similar to what you feel. When I’m out in nature alone, I can sense everything around me. Without sounding like I’m “out there”, I’ve always felt I could “hear” ancient persons who had lived in an area, and had the ability to sense the plants and animals around me. There’s nothing like it. The most peaceful thing I have ever experienced. Thanks for taking us along on this wonderful adventure with you. It was fabulous. ❣️❣️♥️❣️❣️
Nothing like coffee and slim in the morning
I used to listen to political shows in the morning. I did a 180 with Slim and I'm much happier for it.
Tea, please!
Slim, You take us out of this crazy world to find peace.
Thank you for taking me to places I could never go. The beauty you let me see, I Thank You so very much!
That big machinery that you found in the woods?
I can only think it's one of 2 things. potentially a printing press or a stamping machine of some kind for parts..
As for pets? dogs in particular? I've got my little one here right behind me with his tennis ball.
I've had him since he was 6 weeks old and he's between 17 and 20 now.
due to my bad memory because I can't remember the year we got him. 🤷🤦
I've had several dogs in my life and it takes a little piece of your soul every time one passes away.
so I can understand with the limitations you are working with why you wouldn't bother having a pet at this time.
I'm one of those folks that need to be needed and I'll tell you what, there are days I wouldn't get out of bed if it weren't for my furkid needing me to take care of him.
My kids are grown & I'm a grandmother.
I love my fur kids but I don't diss people who don't or don't want to have another one.
my sister's that way.
she never had children so that when she got her little puppy dog, she became her child.
The sweet pupper was a purebred and she came down with some of the genetic problems that purebreds have and she had to be put down.
my sister won't ever have another dog, it hurt her too much.
thank you for the adventures in the North I don't know that I'll ever get a chance to go up that far but man that's awesome and beautiful!!
I think it is a planer thicknesser for making boards
Solo Eldritch...When they leave, they always leave a part of them in our heart.
@@frednorris2791 I thought of that too, along with a printing press, or perhaps something that makes paper. It's hard to tell if it was meant to be by the river or just dumped there.
I was leaning toward a Brake 🤔
Looks like a printing press to me too. Would have been nice to have more footage on it or if he found a name plate. Mysteries of the Northwoods.
Can't beat the camp locations Slim finds. Love the channel. I learn a lot from you for our camping channel.
Slim,I have really enjoyed your latest adventure series to the north. You show us and educated us about places most of us will never get to see in person. Thanks bunches... Safe travels on your way home.
Great video series. About 5 years ago I did a similar trip. Southern Ontario to Dawson to Skagway. Then back down the spine of B.C. then home just staying north of the border. 5 weeks and 16000 kms all in a 1997 mustang convertible. I still can hardly believe all the wonderful things I saw. The trip of a lifetime for anyone who is able to repeat it in the future.
Slim, thanks for taking us along on this journey to all parts of Canada and, especially, the Yukon; it's been a stunning trip! I was really taken by the scenery reflected in the lake; so truly amazing. You are smart to head out before the risk of "black ice" is to much of a possibility -- that is TERRIBLE stuff!
Y'all Be Safe (can't wait for more of your adventures).
Well thank you Sir for your time sharing your adventures, looking forward for the next time you travel, take care Slim and God bless you.
The whole area is beautiful, and you are a beautiful soul within it as well. I have no idea what that machine is, although I am sure someone in the comment section will know. Too many people on UA-cam think you have to have a dog to survive, and many copy others, I see it with survivalist video's all the time. Truth is, a dog is a huge responsibility just like you said, and yes, they do always get in the way when your trying to film wildlife. And if you don't have them on a leash, they also get in the way when your trying to work. Your living the life of freedom, and that is something that I wish more people got the chance to do. Great video as always Slim!
I speculate that historically people were more nomadic than history leads us to believe. It makes me sad to know how fast those wild places are going. Of my favorite UA-camrs, I think you are #2 on my list of the freest people I know of. Hopefully soon I'll be #1 on that list. Thanks for sharing your journeys. They keep me inspired and motivated to keep pursuing my dreams.
Totally agree. The evidence indicates to me that humans have always been more mobile than what we're taught. It's not that a lot of people didn't stay put - it's that a lot of people didn't.
I’ve been watching your vids for a while now, and I have to say, you always get my attention. So now, I actually look forward to see what’s next for Ol Slim, and you just never let me down.
I want you to know that I really do totally enjoy your videos, and I for one am very grateful that you take the time, and spend the effort to bring your travels to people like me.
So again, thank you Mr Slim, and careful, be safe, and God bless Brother 👊
Peace… Shalom… Salam... Namaste and Thank You so much for All that you are doing to Help our Mother Earth 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ 🌷 ❤
Thanks for sharing Slim... 💗👊🏻😎🙏🏻
What a great series. Thank you Slim. There is something sad about when you have to head back on home. But, that trio, in itself is an adventure too. So the fund not over yet. Live the Artic. Been there myself back in the 80s mlm. Loved it. Except where you experienced it by land, I experienced in by water. There were spots where we dropped anchor only 10 feet or so from land and the water was 300 feet deep. Have fun, stay safe and stay healthy. 🙂
Thank you, Slim, for taking me with you on your adventure. I truly appreciate your travels and your wisdom.
Hello Slim,, always enjoy your videos.. Thank you for sharing..
Thanks for the encouragement Slim!
Hey Slim, thanks for another great video.
I hope people hear your message of, there's no shame in doing things alone, mostly things you enjoy.
You'd love my country, Australia.
Once again thanks for sharing yours with us!
Cheers
I look so much to your once a week post I cannot wait for Tues to roll around.You've taking me place where I have never been thanks for sharing your adventures with the rest of society thanks Slim.
Thank You for sharing this awesome journey.
That’s a wrap:🎬. Thanks for this Amazing Artic Adventure, Slim. Safe travels until the next one, buddy.🌞👊🌞
I buy those hash browns and I take half out and put in a jar with lid. They make great meals. I love your camper and setup. It's sad winter is coming but looking forward to next year. I am always working on making my camper better too. I made new curtains for mine this week. God Bless my friend. Happy Trails.
Slim. Your videos are awesome because it’s your style that makes it so interesting. Your down to earth. So real.. Its your channel, therefore you get to do things your way. Don’t change a thing. Thank you for not whining and ebegging. Your a stand up guy. We just love it!
Truly you are such a beautiful person inside and out. I absolutely love your videos, your views are wonderful. You always make my days better. You bring peace to a troubled world
Thank you for sharing your story. Be safe. Namaste Jay
Thanks for answering the dog question, and your answer makes perfect sense! I am a 60 year old happy single gal and I absolutely love solo camping (well, I do take my dogs but don't have to juggle a camera). It's the most peaceful and relaxing time there is in this insane world. I adore you and your perspectives on the natural world! If you're ever in Virginia, please allow me to buy you a beer (but not a hoppy beer).
Thanks Slim. These adventures are great. I just recently retired and am making a camper in a cargo trailer. Can’t wait to get out and enjoy.
It ALWAYS scares me when I know you are cooking . Lol . I never know what concoction you're going to come up with . On the other hand I do find your food choices very interesting . I love you videos . Stay well and drive safe . London , Ontario , Canada
You do you. We appreciate you. Your videos are great for learning, and to see places we'll never get to see. So thank you!!!!
Slim, You rock! Your views and your message, all of it. Wishing you (and everyone!) a better year ahead. PeAcE ✌🏼
Respect Nature, the only one we have. LNT Thanks Slim!
Great series! We have a dog, but do not travel with him for the reasons you stated - so it adds extra cost to our vacation expenses to provide for his care while we're gone. I appreciate the natural sounds of this log. So many travelers add annoying click/snap music to nature scenes, which is totally out of place.
I so agree. I just quit watching another video in the middle of it because she had to inject her own music tastes into it and it was totally jarring. Without the music I likely would have finished the video. Gave her another chance with a second one - same problem so I bailed.
Thank you for another great video Slim, I can't wait for next spring to start new adventures and I hope you get back into the States for your adventures also!!!
Agree with you Slim, showers are civilization
As always, beautiful. Thank you. Take care and I will see you in the next one.
Hello Slim. Greetings from Mossburn, New Zealand. My husband and I have always wanted to visit Canada, ever since we were young and spritely but there is no chance in the near future for us travelling anywhere but watching your adventures are almost as good. We're very fortunate to live in a location very much like Canada, snow-capped mountains, crystal clear rivers and alpine lakes, pristine forests and a wonderful lifestyle because of it. You have made such compelling, informative and beautiful films, you're wonderful to listen to and we appreciate all the work it takes to produce your channel.
Good on ya mate! 👍
Hi Colleen, I'd love to visit New Zealand as well some day. I've heard so much about the beauty of the country and the practical nature of the people. We all envy you! Thanks, SP
Even though I could never, ever, be without my beloved dogs, I truly respect and am happy to see you recognize that about yourself regarding dogs. Too many people don't. Life has to revolve around our animals, which we love, but it is not for everyone. Doesn't mean you don't like dogs, just means you know it is not for you.
Years ego I traveled up and down to Alaska and all over Canada/USA on my motorcycle. Mostly lived of the land. Boon docking wild tent and hammock camping. I was alone most of the time..me and my thoughts. And those years were some of the best years of my life. People enjoy while you can..life is like a burning candle.
Canada winter this year. No boarder crossing...Stay warm and busy. Another great video......Thank you
I was surprised when you pulled out the Stanley Park as I work at the brewery.
No surprise, I like real beer! SP
Enjoyed your arctic series. Thanks for taking us along!
Good Day Slim! You are something special, sort of magical(an amazing man) and a very caring person of nature and animals! Your potatoes, veggie franks, onion and fresh garlic looked delicious! I think you are a fine cook!😁. Thank you always for the great survival ideas and making me smile and laugh!You’ll never gain too much cause you get all that exercise!😁. Many Blessings to you Slim! 💕Always, Carol
Love watching your travels! Love Canada and thanks for sharing!
Slim. Thanks for all the videos. There are great. Very beautiful scenery with enough narration (explanation).. I just follow your channel this week and found it very interesting. Thnk you. Stay healthy and happy.
Thank you Slim
Thank you for sharing this trip with us!
I lived in The Yukon for a few years. I moved back to Ontario to be closer to my family. I'd do anything to go back to Yukon. Such an amazing place.
Great video as ever. Thank you for bringing us along. 😀👍 ☘️☘️🇮🇪☘️
Thank you for taking us along. Great video. Safe travels.
Your adventure has been amazing and I just love watching you Mr. Potato
I always love opening up your new video to see what you are doing. Clean trailer and it looks fantastic after being on that dusty muddy highway. I want your freedom and am working towards it.
Sending you the best wishes

Je suis de France. Merci pour toutes tes vidéos que je suis avec la traduction. Je commence à me préparer pour vivre comme toi et faire des vidéos de Nature. Tu es un bon exemple, merci à toi Slim
Thx for bringing the rest of us along with ya on an amazing 😉 journey of most awesome beauty! Your narrating and Sense of humor( Mr Potato head, 😆) makes living vicariously thru your u tube channel even more inviting!!
Agree, and thx for confirmations...love to have a dog but agree 100% with u!! I too enjoy hiking not having to contend with a lease nor putting a dog on a lease in nature! Goes both ways?!
Traveling by oneself is awesome! U do get to meet many on the way and u can go your own way...drama free!!!
I’ve been stationary for this season due to fires and COVID, had planned to do the west coast this summer but maybe another summer! It’s been so good to watch your channel to see where I hope to get to myself sooner than later! Yup, head south, it’s warm in New Mexico!! Good luck 👍
You have the "eye" for this venue Slim, thanks for sharing. We also watch several of the narrow boaters because of you, what a gift we got.👍👍👍😁😎
Thanks for taking us along on your epic journey!
Love all your videos Slim! You are quite interesting!😊👍🌲⛰
The wisdom of a man who is comfortable with himself...I agree 100%. I hope they print some more money so we can be content too...Laugh out loud. Freedom, yes Slim you have found it. Bless you Slim for the wonderful job of photography, your wise and wonderful words, and your ongoing voyage we watch with anticipation to see where you take us all next....Truly connects us to "Universal Love for the State of Nature" We also love our solace, our peace, our quiet moments when we appreciate those enlightening moments of Freedom. Bless you Slim keep on trucking you and RVer tv keep us all sane with traveling. I love traveling just for the reason you said....Yep! Carolyn and Colin Hogarth BC, Osoyoos....Canada. A big wave...Slim...
Great advice, always like to watch your videos.
Thanks you for sharing and take care.
We really enjoy all your videos, and look forward to more adventures.
I always enjoy watching your videos. The way you connect with nature is inspiring.
Love to watch your colder temps camping.
I'm with you on solo camping, traveling!
Add some onion and green pepper with some Asian sauce, pineapple chunks, peanuts and you have an aweso.e meal. Swap potatoes for rice or noodles for more options without refrigeration.
Always enjoy your open and honest thoughts.
Looks like you are having a grand old time. Love the reflections on the water.
Always a pleasure; thanks again Slim
Your videos are the next best thing to being there. Thank-you, and safe journey.
Me too...I would like to canoe the Yukon River...I hope we are able to come back to Canada soon. My dog comes with me everywhere.
Thank you for taking us along on this magnificent journey. I’m sad to see it end. If I were able to pack up and go...this is the trip I would take! You are the real deal. ✌🏻❤️⛺️
Thank you 👍🏻💕
Thanks for taking me along!
