I like your clam shell set up, especially how you built the single burner stove into the table. It’s a cool idea because they tip over and that keeps it stable and user friendly. I like to make and modify gear too!
Thanks, Chris. That modification for the stove sure made cooking less of a balancing act. And being short, it was always too high for me... thanks for watching! ~Linda
My dad was a flight engineer in the USAF and was stationed in Alaska for 2 years during 1966 and 67.He used to tell me stories about those days.My parents met in Anchorage and headed to N.C.after they were married to start a family.

@@gonagain thank you for your kindness The southeast has some of the densest terrain around.If it wasn't for the humidity it would be a great place lol
I was wondering the other day if you were using your CLAM much and if you were still happy with it. Nice video. I really appreciate your gear list with links to purchase.
You got me with tears of joy flowing,yep...iam going up the country where water tastes like wine..lol..Rick,we have been blessed with the best of the best...its great to see a man like you doing life..your videos always give me good thoughts...peace💜

Absolutely great video. Teamwork, compassion, love, concern, bushcraft, nostalgia, environment, awareness, etc. without mentioning any of it. I loved it - many thanks!
Great video! Y’all are so cute! My sisters and I were among the girls that were in love with the Beetles in those days, but now that I’ve grown up I don’t look at them the same way. My life is going in a much better direction now, thank God!!!
Ah yes, but you all had a lot of fun didn't you? I managed to change my ways as I got older, but I'm sure glad I grew up the way I did. Our music was, and still is, pretty great!
You & Linda are my favorite youtuberz. I'm thankful the Beatles got you out of the water-into a plane & into nomad living!! Gods blessings & soo looking forward to "our" next adventure. 🙏✌🇺🇸💞
Camp fire time/ No waves to ride/ Walking the line/ Without a tide/ Beatles came/ Life was not the same/ The Boys gave in/ To the English bend/ Now we are here/ And the Stones are near/ The camp fire does glow/ The memories of Rock and Roll/
Really enjoyed the video. We still need to get one of the Clamshell tents. They are so easy to setup and perfect for setting up the kitchen. Thanks for sharing your camp with us.
I flew for Southern Air Transport back in the 80's. When everyone else was flying their 747's, 707's and our work horses, the C130's I was the lucky guy who flew SAT's DC-3. I flew it from South Fla to Central America and to Mena, Ar. Thunder storms, at night is what I hated. A cross wind landings in that thing was a handful. As always, love your great videos.
Yay! Linda woke up! That was a neat story about the Beatles. I grew up in Houston, TX and so I know all about that 40/20 weather. You definitely have fire-building skills!
hello from the Ozarks!! looking fordward to lindas Hershey scratch cake recipe!! this is a great time to camp with no one around. we are to have snow for a couple of days but the walleye and crappie still biting down on the lake. thanks for sharing and safe camping!! cheers!!
Love your camping videos. Camping in winter looks fun, alone with your life's partner and true love. Funny what a little retreat from civilization will do, bringing up the old memories. A cup of coffee, feet up, and watching the fire sure beats sitting in your living home watching the news channels.
Love your method[s]; what a fantastic area.... Just "give me that old time rock & roll, todays music ain't got the same soul"!!!!😉 U2, are Awesome.....😁
Such a great Beatles story. Big Beatles fans here but appreciated the story and we’ll just keep all our Beatles albums along with all the other bands you mentioned. Good times and gave us a great chuckle.
Beautiful area, makes me want to go, no trash or garbage is getting rarer and rarer. I was busy surfing in Florida back then even after the Beatles came to Miami. Thanks for the video!
I could smell the forest air my friend, what a great time of the year to be out and to me the best time of year. As for the beetles, I was laying on the floor in my uncles living room and watching the Ed Sullivan show and he said here they are the beetles and they sang she loves you yeah,yeah,yeah. I agree with you, those years were the best music and you could actually hear the lyrics. These people nowadays don’t know what good music sounds like. You two take care.
You're so right about the music W R, but you want to know what's cool? There's a ton of young bands today that are doing our music! It's that good. Thank you so very much for your generous donation to our channel, it comes at a much appreciated time and the gesture means a lot.
Two people enjoying and taking advantage of the mild weather and gorgeous area of our country that God has blessed us with. I really like your simple style ! Very smart to carry a sidearm while out in the wilderness. What make and caliber of pistol you carrying ? Thanks for the great video !!
Great video as usual. Somehow I missed this post. Sorry. Speaking of music and Linda dragging firewood; reminds of the song " Put another log on the fire " 😂😂😂 Anyway, keep up the great work. Have fun, stay safe and stay healthy. 😷
I worked the night shifts outside, on the San Francisco Bay Waterfront. I hear you about cold. Damp makes a huge difference. Rain too warm to be snow was the worst. They talk about wind chill, but no mention of a cold rain with wind.
Relaxing video. Especially watching Linda do all the work. Can you tell me more about the tabletop burner? I don't believe I've seen one like it before.
Boy you sure now how to make a old Montana boy home sick. Thanks for sharing! I love it! I think I am going to follow your lead and get a 6x10 aluminum cargo trailer.
We bought that trailer just to haul our ATV and came to love it as a camper. We don't even take the ATV with us anymore! We talk often about if a bigger size would be better, but every time it comes back down to the 6X10 being perfect for what we do. Thanks for watching John!
Enjoy your videos and thanks for making them. We are almost exactly the same age. But we grew up in different worlds. I grew up in East Texas and I know about the damp cold. Always damp down here. A company I used to work for had salesmen from all over the US and they used to come from Chicago, Casper, WY, Pittsburg and spend a week down here just after Christmas. And I used to hear them talking about how "cold" it was when it was only 35 out and drizzling rain. They would go out and start their cars and go back in the hotel room and let the car warm up and then make a run for it. Oh well, I'm retired now and we are moving to Grand Junction, CO, the Lord willing. I've gotten a lot of good info watching your videos too. Gonna turn our cargo trailer into a camper too. I didn't like the early Beatles either. Thank god for the Stones. My musical tastes have changed over the years, but still love the Stones. Just keep the videos coming.
Oh yeah, 35 degrees and raining is cold for sure. We love Grand Junction and pass through there often. The camping, exploring, natural history and human history are all very interesting there. And the weather is just about right too. Good luck on your move and with your cargo trailer build!
I totally agree with you. I lived down south in Glendora. Went to high school with "The Surfaris" band. We formed a local band "The Outsiders", had the same manager, recorded a record, and the local radio station promised to play it "When this Beatles thing blows over". Wonder what ever happened to that record? Sold my guitar, bought a car, and I just retired from 50 years as a mechanic. I could've been a superstar. Never did like them either. Great stories though.
Canned Heat:-) first concert I ever went to. Growing up in that era was awesome. Did a lot of hitch hiking but with skis and backpacks to hit the local canyons.
I loved the Beatles. Also, i lived in Santa Cruz, back when Lost Boys came out. There's a skateboarding kid in the opening credits, Japanese nd African American, with a long Mohawk. We drove pies for a really good pizza joint. They flew in fresh Basil from Hawaii to make pesto every week.
The Beatles were great, I just like other bands a lot better! Looking back, they sure didn't last long as a group, maybe 6 years after they hit it big?
Glad you 2 got out and got some fresh air ... beautiful area .... good tip on the Gortex boots .... I knew Mel Gore when I was in the ski business, we tested a lot of his product in development ... a real gentleman, smart guy, with a great idea of passing water vapor (sweat) thru fabric, yet liquid wont penetrate .... a good tip for cold feet, as I was a specialist in fitting ski boots for world class skiers ... and spent 10 hours a day in ski boots in sub zero weather .... the human foot while active secretes a few oz's of sweat per hour ... hard to evac that much sweat even with good quality wool or "smart" socks .... an old Austrian race coach taught me in my early 20's to bring at least one good quality "spare pair" in my boot bag every day .... a change at lunch into a fresh lofty pair of good socks made the difference between discomfort (and possible frostbite) and the pleasure of a fresh pair, and lets your compressed feet/skin breath and get some circulation for a few minutes ... it also paid off later in high altitude back country S&R where being on top of your game and equipment often meant more time out searching and perhaps saving a life .... it only takes a second, yet you'll always be the one smiling when others are stomping their feet trying to get the blood moving ... like when we dress in layers, too much moister build up is a killer when it comes to retaining precious body heat, layer let you adjust to changing temps and activity level .... I'm starting to sketch out a plan for my 8X12 conversion for spring ... and think I'm going to go with your propane stove rig to avoid moisture issues in a closed trailer .... I've used my Mr Heater Buddies before and got condensation .... just not worth it .... on a side note, Grizzly often sleep right thru short warm spells as it uses precious energy to wake and forage ... their bodies taking the Que more from the ground temps and not ambient air temps
This must have been one of your last trips before the lockdowns. I built a 348 the predecessor to the 409 it had 3/2’s with progress linkage it was fun ride. My girlfriend then now my wife loves fast cars and any kind of racing.
Kinda funny you are eating apples and cheese for lunch and I'm eating an apple and some cheese for midnight snack. I hibernate during winter and you entertain me with your adventures. Happy travels to ya. Grace from CT.
No Perry, I don't trust bear spray ever since I got bluff charged on a very windy day. That made me realize that it had it's limits and I didn't want to risk carrying it. If I had room to carry both it might be okay for ideal situations.
I absolutely love your video's, reminiscing and your overall outlook on life. Your a great couple and lucky to have each other. I'm only a little younger than you and hope to walk in some of your foot steps. Chris in the UK 😍
I love your videos. Not watching in chronological order, just as they pop up. We're close in age and what you said about the Beatles had me laughing 'cause I had and have the same sentiment. Also when you mentioned Cream an Canned Heat, That's Me! How about Steppenwolf, Jethro Tull and Hendrix to name a few. I could go on.
My dad had all 4 of us sit down on the floor to watch the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. He was tuned into the music scene pretty well. He loved the Doors. I liked the Beach Boys more than Elvis. By the time I hit 7th grade I was teaching myself how to play guitar. I learned Classical Gas, Love is Blue. Then once I got over being shy and started playing with the boys, I learned how to chord so I played Little Black Egg, Gloria and House of the Rising Sun. I still play and sing, usually daily. I like all kinds of bands and music. I do not do a lot of Beatles tunes...except Hey JUde. I remember playing that at my uncle's house once. His 80 yr old parents and everyone else was jammin to the end of it. Good memory. Music is a great trigger for memories.
We grew up with a lot of great music that's still popular today. Some of the best music these days is coming out of Romania because the younger folks there love our old rock and metal and play it really well. Yeah, Romania of all places.
@@gonagain I'll have to check out the Romania music! I went to a jam last weekend. There were 32 people there, about half of them were musicians and singers. Fun evening. For me playing and singing goes well with my morning Crio Bru, a nice start to my day!
Hi Guy's, love your videos here in New Zealand, been following you for some time. Question (as we are not allowed hand guns here) what is the hand guns you carry. Would be interesting a video on them. Cheers Dave.
Hello Dave, Linda usually carriers a Kahr P9 or a R-ger SP101 (if there's bears around). She's too small to carry something bigger. I stick with either a Glk 23 or a Glk 20. I'd love to do that video you mentioned but am unable due to this channel being monetized.
I feel the same as you. I can't wait to get out and go camping. I'm wondering about running your heater all night and if it produces condensation on everything metal in your trailer. (door frames & windows)
Hello Donald, because it's vented it doesn't produce moisture at all and is more like wood heat. We used to have a Mr. Heater Buddy, but on a rainy day it would rain condensation inside also. Like when using any stove inside (or just being inside a small space and needing to breathe) we leave a window open a crack to let air in. Also, at the front of the trailer, there is a 3 inch vent from the factory.
@@gonagain My trailer is a 7 x 16 and it has three windows and a ceiling vent plus the standard small ones that come on the trailer. I use an electric heater and I'm surprised to see the extent of condensation that is produced. I wish I could find a solution to this problem!!!!
@@donaldburton6869 oh I see! Ok, the reason my heater is working is because it actually circulates air. With an electric heater your own moisture from breathing stays inside with you and you're not bringing fresh air in. With a good, vented heater you'll warm up the inside to where water won't condense on the surfaces anymore. For a 7x16 you'll need one of the larger heaters from NuWay. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just like my stove.
I have been really enjoying your channel what you two are doing is what I want to do I am a widow so I’m am a little skeptical traveling alone but I’m so ready to get out on the road I want to see this country I live in before I die so you are so inspiring for me
Laura, i hope you do get out there and enjoy traveling as much as we do. I'm sure you've noticed on UA-cam that there are LOTS of single ladies like yourself traveling and having fun.
My wife's idea of camping is the Holiday Inn or I should say it use to be so I would go camping by myself when I got my first trailer she told me what all she wanted in it I told her no but she still enjoys it now. We have a lot of what she wanted but with out the TV and stove. The important thing is you both enjoy camping and each others company. You two enjoy and we hope your tomorrow is better than your today.
Just found your channel bc my hubby and I are starting to get into SUV camping U make me feel much safer and not crazy Any tips on where to boondock on oklahoma I don’t like camping by other campers but don’t even know where to start ....?
We haven't done any camping in Oklahoma ourselves yet, but what we do is search out the public lands like BLM and National Forest. I did find this website that may help you: www.travelok.com/article_page/backcountry-camping-in-oklahoma. Also this one: www.allstays.com/Campgrounds/Oklahoma-public-campgrounds-map.htm. And this one too: www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ouachita/recreation/recarea/?recid=10745 I hope this helps!
Love watching you and Linda setting up your campsite. My husband and I have had all kinds of campers and currently are without a camper. Our recent camping was considered glamping. We have decided to convert a 6x12 cargo trailer into a camper and get back into camping small and down size our camping gear. I'm looking forward to getting back to a simpler way of camping and being able to go places where our camper will fit. We are in our 60s and I have been worried about whether we can do it. You and Linda are encouraging me and giving me hope. Keep on camping and keep on Vloging.
You can do it! 6x12 is a nice size and should work very well in getting into those out-of-the-way places. We rearranged our bunk set up this past week when I learned I could sleep athrartships (sideways). Gave us more floor space to work with. Thank you for watching Linda.
I had an older sister that just burned me out on the Beatles. I got some Dave Clark 5 records in retaliation. So glad when she went away to college and took her Beatle records with her.
San Diego boy here, surf'n was the thing , Ford wagon Hobie board, yeah those were the days. Then came the Beatles. Pretty much felt the same about the Beatles, the Stones were much better. Then Crendence Clearwater until I got job in a shop with an 'Okie' and a couple of cowboys, I didn't dare touch radio. Pretty soon it was Cash , Haggard, Willy and Waylon. By then I was 'all in' country. SW Washington has been home for almost 50 years now. Really enjoy your vids.
Thanks Taco 47, it's interesting to hear your perspective. Back then I kept my mouth shut because it was almost sacrilege to say anything bad about the Beatles! I like those same country artists but country has changed too and I don't care for it either now. Southwest WA is a beautiful place to be.
You and I had the same taste in music. About the same age. Same business, I spent a career as a C-141 and C-5 loadmaster. I like the drop in stove on the camp table. I don't see that listed in your recommendations.
Thanks John, I'll put it in the list. It's just a Coleman brand burner and I've also had great luck with the Ozark Trail brand available at all Walmart stores.
Now this is my kind of camping or Boondocking , it's neat no one there except you and Linda.. Great camp setup .. Tell me about your tent setup that you cook in , what brand is it ? I have always been into quality tools like my father was all his life .. Linda's neck knife caught my eye , looks like a great tool, what make is it? Neck knives i have never carried or owned , well not yet ...Your small forest axe also caught my eye , tell me about that model 20" length by chance ? I have been looking at small forest axes for months now , there are some great models out there .. My choices for a sheath belt knife out in the wilderness runs a blade length of between 5" 1/4" to 6" at this point in time..With my favorite at 5"1/2" cutting edge with blade design that i like for all around use.. Great video and trip out into the wild once more..
We're really into blades but lean towards more common working ones and not expensive models. Linda's neck knife is an old "American Blade" brand that I think was made by Boker. The tomahawk I use has a pummel on one side, is made by Cold Steel and is of excellent quality. I think it's the "Trail Hawk". I also have a small Hudson Bay axe that's of a common, hardware store model (I can't remember the name). I found it in the woods and refinished it. A great knife, in my opinion, is anything made by Condor because they just work.
@@gonagain Thank you. You are a man who reads and answers questions folks ask.. Myself I'm not and never will be a custom blade person.. My blades are made by Tops , OKC and Buck with my latest model being my first Sog knive. I did break down 4 years ago and buy a Gransfors Burk Wildlife hatchet and just love that tool.. Thanks for the reply.. Condor and Cold Steel are both good , no problem there.
Can't relate to your feelings toward the Beatles except that I have the same feeling for Grateful Dead...never got it. All else was spot on. Thanks for the trip to Montana.
Hi Stephen, it's a circle of plywood with some sheet metal on top (aluminum). I also put a small bolt through each corner edge of the stove to hold it up a little for air flow. I did a video on it awhile back: ua-cam.com/video/eo5HwkW2qxU/v-deo.html
OMG, what a great share and video! I'm dating myself, BUT I agree, not a Beatles fan either, but why do I know a 409 Woody Wagon? :) Yep, I guess I am that old...... great music back then before the 'invasion'. Too funny too as being in the PNWest, yes damp wind is NOT kind when you work outside..... Thanks again for great share and video! Cheers ! :)
You're right, never could stand the beatles. Loved the rolling stones, Johnny Rivers, Bob Dylan and later George Harrison. Also Jefferson Areo Plane. Winter mountainering and snow caves above Timberline in Colorado. (SP) 60's were awsome.
@@gonagain Setting myself up to do what you and Linda are doing. Cargo trailer/toy hauler. My dog and I are going to retire this summer and travel. 1000watt solar system and my first stops are going to be the 4 corners area of colorado. Spent a couple of summers living in Silverton and want to video travels around the 14 teeners. As for the winter fun, from being on the moutains with a couple of "sticks" on my feet both of my knees are in bad shape. You can google me and I'm on FB.
@@bacrdi52 congrats on being able to retire and get away in your cargo trailer/toy hauler. That 4 corners area is beautiful and we could spend a lot of time there ourselves.
You mentioned grizzly bears at Dry Wolf Creek campground. I camped there in 1973 or 1974 and hunted on the otherside of Big Baldy near Neihart but back then there were no grizzly bears in the Little Belts. Did they reintroduce them since then? I was stationed in Great Falls back then.
Hi Ron, we have grizzly bears out on the plains again here like they were in Lewis and Clark's days and are regularly seen between Great Falls and Havre. I don't know that they are "officially" in the Little Belts, but they've been seen there and in the Big Belts as well. They're introducing themselves!
Scary but cool. I once had fresh cougar tracks show up heading my direction in fresh snow as I back tracked the trail to my car east of Neihart. We used to camp east of Lincoln at Copper Creek Campground alot ,definitely bear country, and we were in a 9x9 canvas tent. Montana has been pulling at us ever since we left just before Christmas 1975.
@@ronamey5351 The towns are probably bigger, but I think you'd find everything else pretty much the same here as it was. Scary seeing that you were being stalked!
I was thinking about taking a little rechargeable chain saw I have but hand sawing is pretty good exercise. Where did you get the ring for mounting the stove or did you make it?
First time watching your channel. Was interested in the way you cut a hole in your table and put that ring to hold your stove. Do you have a diy on doing that I will go back and try to find it if you do. I thought it was a great idea since I have a stove like that. Thanks in advance.

Stanley makes a coffee press that makes a great cup of coffee.
And in the spirit of camping it can also be used as a steamer for veggies.

Love your camping videos. Camping in winter looks fun, alone with your life's partner and true love. Funny what a little retreat from civilization will do, bringing up the old memories. A cup of coffee, feet up, and watching the fire sure beats sitting in your living home watching the news channels.
We managed to get away during a brief break in our winter weather, but it was worth it. Thanks for checking in Arithia!
Love your method[s]; what a fantastic area....
Just "give me that old time rock & roll,
todays music ain't got the
same soul"!!!!😉
U2, are Awesome.....😁
Love it.
I loved it all, rock n roll, bebop, even the big band and easy listening my parents listened to
Such a great Beatles story. Big Beatles fans here but appreciated the story and we’ll just keep all our Beatles albums along with all the other bands you mentioned. Good times and gave us a great chuckle.
Lol! Their music was exceptional, just not to my liking I guess. Thank you for watching Traci!
I love these two. Just lovely.
I said it before and I’ll say it again watching your channel is better than cable TV❤
Thanks, John!
Beautiful area, makes me want to go, no trash or garbage is getting rarer and rarer. I was busy surfing in Florida back then even after the Beatles came to Miami. Thanks for the video!
Then I'm sure you can relate! I kinda felt betrayed when all my classmates went over to the the "other side", lol!
I enjoyed your perspective on the Beatles.
So many people are afraid to share their feelings nowadays. So Thanks
Thank you for watching our videos Allen.
Good video! Admire your commitment to get out and do something and I find it inspiring! Thank you!
I see that you guys enjoy getting out also. Thanks for watching Red Ted's Travels!
I could smell the forest air my friend, what a great time of the year to be out and to me the best time of year. As for the beetles, I was laying on the floor in my uncles living room and watching the Ed Sullivan show and he said here they are the beetles and they sang she loves you yeah,yeah,yeah. I agree with you, those years were the best music and you could actually hear the lyrics. These people nowadays don’t know what good music sounds like. You two take care.
You're so right about the music W R, but you want to know what's cool? There's a ton of young bands today that are doing our music! It's that good. Thank you so very much for your generous donation to our channel, it comes at a much appreciated time and the gesture means a lot.
Two people enjoying and taking advantage of the mild weather and gorgeous area of our country that God has blessed us with. I really like your simple style ! Very smart to carry a sidearm while out in the wilderness. What make and caliber of pistol you carrying ? Thanks for the great video !!
Thanks for watching rdl3255! It's a Glock20 (10mm).
I can remember those groups you mentioned the good ol days !! 😊
Those were the best of days. 😊
I did learn things from your video. Thank you.
Great video as usual. Somehow I missed this post. Sorry. Speaking of music and Linda dragging firewood; reminds of the song " Put another log on the fire " 😂😂😂 Anyway, keep up the great work. Have fun, stay safe and stay healthy. 😷
I can't get her to change the oil on the car for nothin'. lol!
I worked the night shifts outside, on the San Francisco Bay Waterfront. I hear you about cold. Damp makes a huge difference. Rain too warm to be snow was the worst. They talk about wind chill, but no mention of a cold rain with wind.
The San Francisco waterfront is pretty cold!
@@gonagain I believe Mark Twain said the coldest winter he ever had was a summer in San Francisco.
Relaxing video. Especially watching Linda do all the work.
Can you tell me more about the tabletop burner? I don't believe I've seen one like it before.
Sure Jim, I covered it awhile back in this video: ua-cam.com/video/eo5HwkW2qxU/v-deo.html
Boy you sure now how to make a old Montana boy home sick. Thanks for sharing! I love it! I think I am going to follow your lead and get a 6x10 aluminum cargo trailer.
We bought that trailer just to haul our ATV and came to love it as a camper. We don't even take the ATV with us anymore! We talk often about if a bigger size would be better, but every time it comes back down to the 6X10 being perfect for what we do. Thanks for watching John!
Enjoy your videos and thanks for making them. We are almost exactly the same age. But we grew up in different worlds. I grew up in East Texas and I know about the damp cold. Always damp down here. A company I used to work for had salesmen from all over the US and they used to come from Chicago, Casper, WY, Pittsburg and spend a week down here just after Christmas. And I used to hear them talking about how "cold" it was when it was only 35 out and drizzling rain. They would go out and start their cars and go back in the hotel room and let the car warm up and then make a run for it. Oh well, I'm retired now and we are moving to Grand Junction, CO, the Lord willing. I've gotten a lot of good info watching your videos too. Gonna turn our cargo trailer into a camper too. I didn't like the early Beatles either. Thank god for the Stones. My musical tastes have changed over the years, but still love the Stones. Just keep the videos coming.
Oh yeah, 35 degrees and raining is cold for sure. We love Grand Junction and pass through there often. The camping, exploring, natural history and human history are all very interesting there. And the weather is just about right too. Good luck on your move and with your cargo trailer build!
I totally agree with you. I lived down south in Glendora. Went to high school with "The Surfaris" band. We formed a local band "The Outsiders", had the same manager, recorded a record, and the local radio station promised to play it "When this Beatles thing blows over". Wonder what ever happened to that record? Sold my guitar, bought a car, and I just retired from 50 years as a mechanic. I could've been a superstar. Never did like them either. Great stories though.
I remember the Surfaris, who can forget "Wipeout"? Yeah, maybe you could have been a star with your band!
Well, probably not, but I can still blame the Beatles.
Canned Heat:-) first concert I ever went to. Growing up in that era was awesome. Did a lot of hitch hiking but with skis and backpacks to hit the local canyons.
Good time to be alive Mark.
I loved the Beatles.
Also, i lived in Santa Cruz, back when Lost Boys came out. There's a skateboarding kid in the opening credits, Japanese nd African American, with a long Mohawk. We drove pies for a really good pizza joint. They flew in fresh Basil from Hawaii to make pesto every week.
I agree with you on all your music selections! great video!
The Beatles were great, I just like other bands a lot better! Looking back, they sure didn't last long as a group, maybe 6 years after they hit it big?
Glad you 2 got out and got some fresh air ... beautiful area .... good tip on the Gortex boots .... I knew Mel Gore when I was in the ski business, we tested a lot of his product in development ... a real gentleman, smart guy, with a great idea of passing water vapor (sweat) thru fabric, yet liquid wont penetrate .... a good tip for cold feet, as I was a specialist in fitting ski boots for world class skiers ... and spent 10 hours a day in ski boots in sub zero weather .... the human foot while active secretes a few oz's of sweat per hour ... hard to evac that much sweat even with good quality wool or "smart" socks .... an old Austrian race coach taught me in my early 20's to bring at least one good quality "spare pair" in my boot bag every day .... a change at lunch into a fresh lofty pair of good socks made the difference between discomfort (and possible frostbite) and the pleasure of a fresh pair, and lets your compressed feet/skin breath and get some circulation for a few minutes ... it also paid off later in high altitude back country S&R where being on top of your game and equipment often meant more time out searching and perhaps saving a life .... it only takes a second, yet you'll always be the one smiling when others are stomping their feet trying to get the blood moving ... like when we dress in layers, too much moister build up is a killer when it comes to retaining precious body heat, layer let you adjust to changing temps and activity level .... I'm starting to sketch out a plan for my 8X12 conversion for spring ... and think I'm going to go with your propane stove rig to avoid moisture issues in a closed trailer .... I've used my Mr Heater Buddies before and got condensation .... just not worth it .... on a side note, Grizzly often sleep right thru short warm spells as it uses precious energy to wake and forage ... their bodies taking the Que more from the ground temps and not ambient air temps
Always interesting Spinonemaster. We're always on the same page.
This must have been one of your last trips before the lockdowns.
I built a 348 the predecessor to the 409 it had 3/2’s with progress linkage it was fun ride. My girlfriend then now my wife loves fast cars and any kind of racing.
Thanks for sharing this video.
Thank you for watching Mark!
Kinda funny you are eating apples and cheese for lunch and I'm eating an apple and some cheese for midnight snack. I hibernate during winter and you entertain me with your adventures. Happy travels to ya. Grace from CT.
Hi Grace! Thanks for having lunch and a snack with us.
Another great video give them coming going to be 64 degrees this weekend here in Great Falls Montana
It'll be nice as long as the wind didn't blow us away.
Nice vid - Thanks! I loved all that music AND the Beatles1
Rock on!
Gots to have Good Coffee when you're out in the wilds! Don't worry,we won't hold the Beatles thing against you .
Yep!
Cool video, l notice that you had your firearm on you as do I when camping in the wilderness. Do you carry bear spray also? Safe travels, Perry
No Perry, I don't trust bear spray ever since I got bluff charged on a very windy day. That made me realize that it had it's limits and I didn't want to risk carrying it. If I had room to carry both it might be okay for ideal situations.
Great video! Funny story about The Beatles and the pour girl crying for George!
Yep, I still feel sorry for her.
You are a blessed couple. When I grow up I want to be just like you!
That's funny George! Thanks for watching.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU TWO .
Thank you Dominic.
@@gonagain YOUR WELCOM
I absolutely love your video's, reminiscing and your overall outlook on life. Your a great couple and lucky to have each other. I'm only a little younger than you and hope to walk in some of your foot steps.
Chris in the UK 😍
I hope so too Chris, so I'm wishing the best for you. Thanks for the kind words.
I thought I was old, I started with Pink Floyd and Yes!
That's pretty old Jerry! I love Pink Floyd.
I love your videos. Not watching in chronological order, just as they pop up. We're close in age and what you said about the Beatles had me laughing 'cause I had and have the same sentiment. Also when you mentioned Cream an Canned Heat, That's Me! How about Steppenwolf, Jethro Tull and Hendrix to name a few. I could go on.
Saw the Beach Boys (reconstituted) in Puyallup, WA in September 2021.
I liked all those mentioned groups. Yeah, and ESPECIALLY the Beatles!
It was all great music and we actually had real volcalists!
I always enjoy your videos this was a good video enjoy
Thank you TERRI.
Y'all just keep getting cuter and cuter! We loved hearing about you both. Great video!
Thanks for watching another of our videos Marcia!
My dad had all 4 of us sit down on the floor to watch the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. He was tuned into the music scene pretty well. He loved the Doors. I liked the Beach Boys more than Elvis. By the time I hit 7th grade I was teaching myself how to play guitar. I learned Classical Gas, Love is Blue. Then once I got over being shy and started playing with the boys, I learned how to chord so I played Little Black Egg, Gloria and House of the Rising Sun. I still play and sing, usually daily. I like all kinds of bands and music. I do not do a lot of Beatles tunes...except Hey JUde. I remember playing that at my uncle's house once. His 80 yr old parents and everyone else was jammin to the end of it. Good memory. Music is a great trigger for memories.
We grew up with a lot of great music that's still popular today. Some of the best music these days is coming out of Romania because the younger folks there love our old rock and metal and play it really well. Yeah, Romania of all places.
@@gonagain I'll have to check out the Romania music! I went to a jam last weekend. There were 32 people there, about half of them were musicians and singers. Fun evening. For me playing and singing goes well with my morning Crio Bru, a nice start to my day!
@@ttwillow9073 check out this young fellow: ua-cam.com/users/tkdwtff
He does a lot of different music so be sure to listen to a few of his videos.
Don't tell everyone where some of our favorite campgrounds are." lol"
Dave, from your town.
@@daveburnett9242 , I should let them know that the wind doth blow.
Hi Guy's, love your videos here in New Zealand, been following you for some time. Question (as we are not allowed hand guns here) what is the hand guns you carry. Would be interesting a video on them. Cheers Dave.
Hello Dave, Linda usually carriers a Kahr P9 or a R-ger SP101 (if there's bears around). She's too small to carry something bigger. I stick with either a Glk 23 or a Glk 20. I'd love to do that video you mentioned but am unable due to this channel being monetized.
I feel the same as you. I can't wait to get out and go camping. I'm wondering about running your heater all night and if it produces condensation on everything metal in your trailer. (door frames & windows)
Hello Donald, because it's vented it doesn't produce moisture at all and is more like wood heat. We used to have a Mr. Heater Buddy, but on a rainy day it would rain condensation inside also. Like when using any stove inside (or just being inside a small space and needing to breathe) we leave a window open a crack to let air in. Also, at the front of the trailer, there is a 3 inch vent from the factory.
@@gonagain My trailer is a 7 x 16 and it has three windows and a ceiling vent plus the standard small ones that come on the trailer. I use an electric heater and I'm surprised to see the extent of condensation that is produced. I wish I could find a solution to this problem!!!!
@@donaldburton6869 oh I see! Ok, the reason my heater is working is because it actually circulates air. With an electric heater your own moisture from breathing stays inside with you and you're not bringing fresh air in. With a good, vented heater you'll warm up the inside to where water won't condense on the surfaces anymore. For a 7x16 you'll need one of the larger heaters from NuWay. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, I just like my stove.
I have been really enjoying your channel what you two are doing is what I want to do I am a widow so I’m am a little skeptical traveling alone but I’m so ready to get out on the road I want to see this country I live in before I die so you are so inspiring for me
Laura, i hope you do get out there and enjoy traveling as much as we do. I'm sure you've noticed on UA-cam that there are LOTS of single ladies like yourself traveling and having fun.
Gonagain I Hope to be able to do that as well
You 2 are adorable 😍 another great video 👍👍
My wife's idea of camping is the Holiday Inn or I should say it use to be so I would go camping by myself when I got my first trailer she told me what all she wanted in it I told her no but she still enjoys it now. We have a lot of what she wanted but with out the TV and stove. The important thing is you both enjoy camping and each others company.
You two enjoy and we hope your tomorrow is better than your today.
You're right Den, whether it's braving the wilds in a tent or camping out at the Holiday Inn, it's about enjoying life together that matters most.
Great place. Great video. I was country when country wasnt cool. And of course big elvis fan😃😃
Gee Bill, I never had you pegged as an Elvis fan... LOL!
@@gonagain 😃😃😃😃
Just found your channel bc my hubby and I are starting to get into SUV camping
U make me feel much safer and not crazy
Any tips on where to boondock on oklahoma
I don’t like camping by other campers but don’t even know where to start ....?
We haven't done any camping in Oklahoma ourselves yet, but what we do is search out the public lands like BLM and National Forest. I did find this website that may help you: www.travelok.com/article_page/backcountry-camping-in-oklahoma.
Also this one: www.allstays.com/Campgrounds/Oklahoma-public-campgrounds-map.htm.
And this one too: www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ouachita/recreation/recarea/?recid=10745
I hope this helps!
Love watching you and Linda setting up your campsite. My husband and I have had all kinds of campers and currently are without a camper. Our recent camping was considered glamping. We have decided to convert a 6x12 cargo trailer into a camper and get back into camping small and down size our camping gear. I'm looking forward to getting back to a simpler way of camping and being able to go places where our camper will fit. We are in our 60s and I have been worried about whether we can do it. You and Linda are encouraging me and giving me hope. Keep on camping and keep on Vloging.
You can do it! 6x12 is a nice size and should work very well in getting into those out-of-the-way places. We rearranged our bunk set up this past week when I learned I could sleep athrartships (sideways). Gave us more floor space to work with. Thank you for watching Linda.
I had an older sister that just burned me out on the Beatles. I got some Dave Clark 5 records in retaliation. So glad when she went away to college and took her Beatle records with her.
I'm in pieces over that one!
I love Dave Clark 5.
Your good friend Vinny in good old Fla.
San Diego boy here, surf'n was the thing , Ford wagon Hobie board, yeah those were the days. Then came the Beatles. Pretty much felt the same about the Beatles, the Stones were much better. Then Crendence Clearwater until I got job in a shop with an 'Okie' and a couple of cowboys, I didn't dare touch radio. Pretty soon it was Cash , Haggard, Willy and Waylon. By then I was 'all in' country. SW Washington has been home for almost 50 years now. Really enjoy your vids.
Thanks Taco 47, it's interesting to hear your perspective. Back then I kept my mouth shut because it was almost sacrilege to say anything bad about the Beatles! I like those same country artists but country has changed too and I don't care for it either now. Southwest WA is a beautiful place to be.
Beatles didn't do anything for me either, good stuff, cheers on the coffee, be well out there!
Thanks for watching John!
@@gonagain You & Linda seem like nice folks,,, tc
Nice! I like to camp in the cold too. You get to camp alone much of the time (except hunting season). Much nicer since I converted a cargo trailer.
They're nice aren't they? We find ours hard to beat. Thanks for watching Hermitgirl Wanders.
Just found their videos. Sweet couple.
Why thank you Anna!
I love my clam escape!
You and I had the same taste in music. About the same age. Same business, I spent a career as a C-141 and C-5 loadmaster. I like the drop in stove on the camp table. I don't see that listed in your recommendations.
Thanks John, I'll put it in the list. It's just a Coleman brand burner and I've also had great luck with the Ozark Trail brand available at all Walmart stores.
Liked your story on The Beatles and sounds like you may of Had A Hard-days Night. Thank you
for the enjoyable video.
Thanks for watching David!
Do a segment on how you and Linda met and how you affected a Hawaiian girl to give up the balmy tropics for all that snow!
Hmmm... I'll have to dig out some photos of young people you might not immediately recognise.
Love me some Lynyrd Skynyrd. Cheers from Armington, MT!
Hello neighbor! I'm a Skynyrd fan myself.
Now this is my kind of camping or Boondocking , it's neat no one there except you and Linda..
Great camp setup .. Tell me about your tent setup that you cook in , what brand is it ? I have always been into quality tools like my father was all his life .. Linda's neck knife caught my eye , looks like a great tool, what make is it? Neck knives i have never carried or owned , well not yet ...Your small forest axe also caught my eye , tell me about that model 20" length by chance ? I have been looking at small forest axes for months now , there are some great models out there .. My choices for a sheath belt knife out in the wilderness runs a blade length of between 5" 1/4" to 6" at this point in time..With my favorite at 5"1/2" cutting edge with blade design that i like for all around use..
Great video and trip out into the wild once more..
We're really into blades but lean towards more common working ones and not expensive models. Linda's neck knife is an old "American Blade" brand that I think was made by Boker. The tomahawk I use has a pummel on one side, is made by Cold Steel and is of excellent quality. I think it's the "Trail Hawk". I also have a small Hudson Bay axe that's of a common, hardware store model (I can't remember the name). I found it in the woods and refinished it. A great knife, in my opinion, is anything made by Condor because they just work.
@@gonagain Thank you. You are a man who reads and answers questions folks ask..
Myself I'm not and never will be a custom blade person.. My blades are made by Tops , OKC and Buck with my latest model being my first Sog knive. I did break down 4 years ago and buy a Gransfors Burk Wildlife hatchet and just love that tool..
Thanks for the reply.. Condor and Cold Steel are both good , no problem there.
@@normanmallory2055 I forgot to tell you that we sometimes set up our Clam shelter (tent). Easy up and easy down.
Can't relate to your feelings toward the Beatles except that I have the same feeling for Grateful Dead...never got it. All else was spot on. Thanks for the trip to Montana.
I never cared for the Dead either, don't know why.
Love your set up ! With the stove cut into your folding table . What’s the spacer between the table and your upper grill made of .
Hi Stephen, it's a circle of plywood with some sheet metal on top (aluminum). I also put a small bolt through each corner edge of the stove to hold it up a little for air flow. I did a video on it awhile back: ua-cam.com/video/eo5HwkW2qxU/v-deo.html
Gonagain Thank You both ! I did view your video . Simple as pie .
I loved all the music back then
OMG, what a great share and video! I'm dating myself, BUT I agree, not a Beatles fan either, but why do I know a 409 Woody Wagon? :) Yep, I guess I am that old...... great music back then before the 'invasion'. Too funny too as being in the PNWest, yes damp wind is NOT kind when you work outside..... Thanks again for great share and video! Cheers ! :)
Thanks for watching Marty, rock on!!!
You're right, never could stand the beatles. Loved the rolling stones, Johnny Rivers, Bob Dylan and later George Harrison. Also Jefferson Areo Plane. Winter mountainering and snow caves above Timberline in Colorado. (SP) 60's were awsome.
The 60s certainly were awesome, I'd go back in a heartbeat. Sounds like you've had some winter fun.
@@gonagain Setting myself up to do what you and Linda are doing. Cargo trailer/toy hauler. My dog and I are going to retire this summer and travel. 1000watt solar system and my first stops are going to be the 4 corners area of colorado. Spent a couple of summers living in Silverton and want to video travels around the 14 teeners. As for the winter fun, from being on the moutains with a couple of "sticks" on my feet both of my knees are in bad shape. You can google me and I'm on FB.
@@bacrdi52 congrats on being able to retire and get away in your cargo trailer/toy hauler. That 4 corners area is beautiful and we could spend a lot of time there ourselves.
You mentioned grizzly bears at Dry Wolf Creek campground. I camped there in 1973 or 1974 and hunted on the otherside of Big Baldy near Neihart but back then there were no grizzly bears in the Little Belts. Did they reintroduce them since then? I was stationed in Great Falls back then.
Hi Ron, we have grizzly bears out on the plains again here like they were in Lewis and Clark's days and are regularly seen between Great Falls and Havre. I don't know that they are "officially" in the Little Belts, but they've been seen there and in the Big Belts as well. They're introducing themselves!
Scary but cool. I once had fresh cougar tracks show up heading my direction in fresh snow as I back tracked the trail to my car east of Neihart. We used to camp east of Lincoln at Copper Creek Campground alot ,definitely bear country, and we were in a 9x9 canvas tent. Montana has been pulling at us ever since we left just before Christmas 1975.
@@ronamey5351 The towns are probably bigger, but I think you'd find everything else pretty much the same here as it was. Scary seeing that you were being stalked!
I was thinking about taking a little rechargeable chain saw I have but hand sawing is pretty good exercise. Where did you get the ring for mounting the stove or did you make it?
I cut the ring out of a leftover piece from cutting out a hole for the window in the trailer.
A battery operated saw would be good for you. If you drive enough, charge it with an inverter, or if you stay in one place solar.
Yeah, I agree and the newer battery chainsaws work very well. Hmmm...
First time watching your channel. Was interested in the way you cut a hole in your table and put that ring to hold your stove. Do you have a diy on doing that I will go back and try to find it if you do. I thought it was a great idea since I have a stove like that. Thanks in advance.
Hi Stewart! I did a video on the little stove awhile back. Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/eo5HwkW2qxU/v-deo.html
Gonagain thanks for sending the video.
Yes I remember too!
