Slim Potatohead. One of those people that nobody doesn't like. One of the very few YT producers that makes me smile as soon as I get the notification. After watching the morning news from Ukraine, I needed that distraction. Thank you Slim and others like you who help cheer us up.
Tom In Ga, I completely agree with you. You may also enjoy Jay Wanders Out. He is hiking the AT and capturing all the beauty grand and small as he passes by. I’ve been following both for years.Enjoy.
Jan maniolle I think the same I've been watching ol slim for a few years now. Before we started traveling and doing videos. Now that we are about to hike the AT we have been watching Jay and his mossy green shirt.
Im just blown away by that incredible sunset sky, Its not hard to see why you stayed there for a while. I only have 75 days left until i retire and hit the road chasing wonderful sunsets after 50 years in the same job. David in the UK.
A year or so ago I camped for a couple of days on the Galveston beach TX. My brother and his wife who go there quite often (but stays in a fancy hotel) couldn't believe my view....which was for free. I was right on the beach. I'm going back.
Discovery Channel needs to give Slim his own show. I like it the way it is though. No huge budget. I'm really hoping to see him do more backcountry, more northern Manitoba, more Yukon and NWT.
Beautiful, Slim! Thanks for taking us to the beach with you. Also, I LOVE easy recipes so please keep the easy road trip recipes coming! Thanks for a lovely getaway morning from here in middle Tennessee!
My stomping grounds now. Welcome to Louisiana Slim. The pelicans you showed are the Louisiana state bird, and the crab on the beach we always called fiddler crabs. I laughed out load to see the man from Canada freezing his buns off on a Louisiana beach. That frigid humid wind has taken many a life of duck hunters lost in the swamps. 40° f, heavy humidity and wind; without the right gear is sure fire recipe for Hypothermia.
Slim, you make sea shells even amazing looking. So your ability to describe nature is what keeps bringing me back week after week. Attenbourough haas stiff competition in you!
Yes that is a nice comparison but l'd rather thunk of them being very complementary ships who are passing in the night.....each makes wonderful complements. I think David would really enjoy watching Slim....maybe brothers with different mothers!! 🤗
Man I’m 50 and I can see me doing what your doing when I retire. Your really down to earth and easy going. God bless you man. Honestly. Thank you for being you. Take care my friend.
Isn't that the most beautiful sunset of Gods art. To experience it in person would be greater if I could. Safe travels Slim. Glad you are enjoying yourself. 🤗🤓
The weather people say we get those beautiful southern sunsets from the wind coming off of Africa, bringing the desert dust high into the atmosphere and the sun reflects off of that.
That peanut butter tomato soup looks very interesting. The sunset and sounds of the waves, oh how this prairie girl misses it. Thanks for bringing us along.
Reminded me of my boondocking trip to the western side of the Delmarva peninsula on the Chesapeake Bay side (opposite from Chincoteague island on the Atlantic side. They are only separated by about 30 miles. I camped on a small peninsula in the Saxis Wildlife area. There's nothing quite like camping near the waters edge and view the beautiful sunsets.
Huge fan & lifelong Mississippi Gulf Coast resident here. Can’t tell you how cool it was to see you boondocking in my neck of the woods! We’ve gotta get you a big bag of steaming hot boiled crawfish or crabs to devour next time you’re down here!
Not only are you going to find salt on/in your vehicles, you’re going to find blown sand in nooks and crannies for months or years. I learned the hard way driving a top down convertible on those beaches. I liked your soup experiments. I think using Campbell’s tomato in the fast soup recipe might give both speed and a better flavor and consistency. Thanks as always for taking us along with you.
Having places like this to camp for a few days is just the best medicine for a person. I loved every second of being on the beach with you. Amazing sunsets glistening off the clouds, skimming on top of the waves slapping the shore. Awesome. Your little treasures were really pretty. I've yearned to seek seashells, have never done that. You can make Vegetable Soup with all your favorite vegetables & add the V8 32 oz. I make Country Vegetable Soup & it has a lb. of browned ground meat.
3 can chili 1 can of Hormel chunky chili with beans, 1 can of diced tomatoes. 1 can of pinto beans. Now dump in pan and heat up 20 minutes. Extra things to add. Ground meat, diced onions, 1/2 cup Macaroni , top with cheese , or sour cream.
Lived in Louisiana for 23 yrs and loved to visit Holly Beach in Cameron Parish esp in the springtime before the heat, humidity, and crowds kicked in. great place for shelling, tho never boondocked, we always stayed in a cabin before the hurricanes decimated the area. thanks for bringing back memories!
Wow this video moved me Slim. The sound of the beach and the views of the sunset were incredible. I am struggling with what to do with my life since my wife’s death. We were going to travel across Canada and into the US from time to time. I am living here in our home and cleaning up all the loose ends that come when someone passes. Once that is finished I will be free, free to do whatever I want. Me alone. Slim give me your secret, how do you do it? Thanks Slim for another wonderful video I can watch from the comfort of my couch. It’s keeping me safe and warm and stopping me from living.
The travelling part is easy. You just go. Getting yourself prepared for it is the part many get hung up on. If the spirit is there, the rest will work itself out. Time to turn the page! SP
I reread my comment, and truly apologise if it seemed I was insensitive to your deepest loss. I really meant to say a page is there to turn when you are ready. I'm sure her love will still guide you. SP
After losing my Mom on Dec 4th, my little half Sister Dec12th and my ex Son in law on January 9th of 2022, all i have left are my 3 adult children with their Families and Grandchildren.. I've had many hopes and dreams to travel solo as i did in the past, but could really use a much needed break in life to just breath... I'm truly sorry for the loss of your wife, trust me when i say this, she would want you to go and finish out those plans you both made together, she'll be right beside the entire time...live today like there's no tomorrow, as you know tomorrow is not guaranteed.... hugs from wisconsin ❤
Your smile when you first pull up and look out over the gulf is priceless! Oh and your fantastic narration of your videos is pure perfection. That sunset was heaven sent! Thanks Slim keep up the good work and Godspeed!
As a Texan, I think the Gulf Coast is not only a great place to camp, but the first thing I would do as a nomad. It's safe clean, beautiful, can collect shells, wade, swim in warmer water at times, fish, get a tan, clean air, exercise, see rockets take off from Boca Chica, eat great food, meet all sorts of people, have serenity and not have to worry about forest fires cause you can build a fire right on the beach. You can also see stars well and it's a great place for using telescopes, go boating. From Florida to the Texas/Mexican border there is more to see on the Gulf Coast than many states cumulatively have to offer.
Best Video ever! Love that area ! Could set there all Day WATCHING and LISTENING to the water ! Love the shells too ! ❤️ Keep these kind of Videos coming Please ! 🙏
Mr Slim, you're so poetic🤗 This is why I'll likely never leave Louisiana.. for good. One of the worst sunburns I've ever gotten was on an overcast day, under a sunbrella.. next to the water. Ouch As for the soups, I thought you might have combined the two😏
I wish that I had been with you when you saw the Manatees! My heart leapt when I saw the video of them in the water. and now...my life is complete!! Thank you very much from Christina Lake BC
I love all the beautiful places you go! And by the way, I know you've said that you are not a Chef, but I enjoy seeing you make different things. It gives ME ideas too!!!😊Stay Safe !!
Boiled peanut warning. I'm from the South and have enjoyed boiled peanuts my whole life. I 'm glad to see you enjoyed yours, because there are plenty of people, even some southerners, who won't give them a try. My warning is that if you buy boiled peanuts from a small market, usually roadside, taste them before you buy them. Some sellers will reboil peanuts for several days which can give them a bad taste. Also, since salt is used in the cooking, they can be over salted for my palate. They are also available in cans in grocery stores.
Down in Gulf Shores, where I have family, the beaches are striped bare! No shells can ever be found. So glad you put them back. You are such a good earth citizen.
Wow, what a sunset! I put V-8 in my beef vegetable soup, adds great flavor. I made creamy mushroom soup yesterday and it came out delicious. Since you’re vegetarian I won’t tell you what’s in it.
I’m surprised, living at a trailer with limited energy resources, i.e. bro pain, that you don’t use the “Julia Child“ method of cooking pasta. Basically bring the water to a boil, stir in the pasta, bring it back to a boil, then put it on the lid and turn off the burner. Let it just soak in the hot water for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the type of pasta. I find the dried tortellini tends to take about 20 minutes or so. I have found that you can add a lot of flavor by adding some sort of seasoning or flavoring or even some bullion to the soaking water. In this case I can imagine essentially cooking the pasta in the V8, maybe with just a little bit of added water,. I may actually try that in the next day or two.
My favorite pasta is angel hair. It's delicate and cooks very quickly. I would have substituted or added tomato paste to thicken the soup. It is fun to experiment. I do enjoy watching SP prepare these recipes sent in by viewers. I do not enjoy watching tv chefs cook complicated dishes. I could live on pintoes, cheese and cornbread.
I would use coconut light with the soup and thin it with a little bullion cube and water. If you use crunchy peanut butter you be able to avoid needing to have peanuts on hand 😀
Slim, I live on the Nueces Bay, close to Corpus Christi. My wife and I drive down the Padre Island beach. The breeze is sometimes pretty stiff, so, no bugs. The sunsets and sunrises are magnificent. Thanks for sharing; your commentary and videography are excellent. Texas
I love that beach! I live in Florida & drove out to Texas to pick up a Casita Travel Trailer I bought from the factory. I camped there on the way back to Florida. I intended to stay just one night but ended up staying 3 nights because I loved it so much. And I loved that I could see both the sunrise & the sunset on the Gulf there. I don't know if you can see both year-round there but in January you could.
That sunset - I said "Wow" out loud. I like that you are leaving the shells for others to appreciate instead of carrying around more stuff. Really like that you tried the 2 soups. Love your videos, thanks Slim!!
Just 45 min south from my home. Rutherford is a unique beach. It was wiped out during hurricane Laura in 2020. Most all of the camps were destroyed and there was a pavilion and shower area that was also destroyed. It is still a lovely beach. Welcome to Louisiana.
A variation on a satay sauce that sounds interesting. I've always liked Campbell's soups often accompanied by a cheese sandwich, so I'd probably leave the cheese in the sandwich. Then, I'd try adding some fresh ginger as well as the chilli 😋 That may be my Queensland taste buds. Ginger is grown commercially here. Something to try next winter.
Your stay in San padre Island near Corpus Christi was the very first video of yours that got me to discover your channel. I’ve pretty much seen all your videos since. Thanks for your awesome work
Nice way to start the day, with a nice plate of slim potatoes. I live only a few miles from the beach, here in Southern California, this is my type of place.
What a cool beach. That sunset, just wow. I've got to watch that again. I really look forward to the awesome sights that you share. Thanks Slim! And I've got to admit, the tomato peanut butter soup, at first I was a bit "I dunno..." but after watching it go together you have me intrigued. I may just give that a go. I bet some roasted jalapenos would go pretty good in there.
Another great adventure Slim, thank for taking us along and learning about soups that I've never heard of, might try them as well. Well take care and enjoy your travels. As always "Enjoy The Adventure." Later!!
I came upon your video after my visit to Louisiana, New Orleans, and two of its five deltas. I was so happy to see your video… I really appreciate the time and effort that he did it because it’s really really. Good… I subscribed to your channel because I realize you have some really good stuff. Continue the good work.
I especially like you trying recipes subscribers send you; v8 juice as part of a soup & peanut butter in soups. Yes, spinach is something I often add to soups. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada.
Hi, Slim. I live East of where you are.......Alabama-Florida line. Peanut and tomato are a staple of certain African area cooking. I was introduced via a niece's Ghanaian husband. His mom makes chicken in a sauce of these. I found a recipe for a stew/soup with this base that includes eggplant and green beans. We have it over rice. Occasionally I'll add leftover chicken needing used up. I was smitten and wait every summer for my hubby's garden eggplant. Love your photography.
I grew up in SW Louisiana and visited Rutherford beach many times in the late 1960's - early 1970's. I am surprised it still exists, as many powerful hurricanes slammed that area since then. I suppose the state built the beach back up. Most often the water was chocolate in color and the beach strewn with seaweed and waste from oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico.
I make something similar to Barbara's recipe, but use pasta, tomato juice, and cottage cheese. I use less juice, so it is more of pasta with sauce rather than a soup. Delicious with lots of fresh cracked black pepper.
I forgot what stunning sunsets the Gulf showcases. Great job catching it's glory. That's a ton of sea shells there. Too bad the weather turned on you while beach camping. Thanks for sharing, stay safe. 🕊

Then, I'd try adding some fresh ginger as well as the chilli 😋 That may be my Queensland taste buds. Ginger is grown commercially here. Something to try next winter.
So calming!
Enjoying your journeys, , Larry and I watch you all the time we see a new post. Glade to have you visit the USA. Have you visited Michigan .
Loved the sunsets! Enjoyed this video. Who doesn’t love the beach! 🏖

I grew up in SW Louisiana and visited Rutherford beach many times in the late 1960's - early 1970's. I am surprised it still exists, as many powerful hurricanes slammed that area since then. I suppose the state built the beach back up. Most often the water was chocolate in color and the beach strewn with seaweed and waste from oil platforms in the Gulf of Mexico.
outstanding 🏆 thanks for letting us hang out with you 👍 safe travels 🍻
Sunset beautiful!!
Beautiful sunset and water!!
I love that you can drive on the beach slim.
Had you cooked the pasta in the tomato soup, it would have been thicker from the starch of the pasta (I'm thinking).
Slim, What a beautiful sun set!
I make something similar to Barbara's recipe, but use pasta, tomato juice, and cottage cheese. I use less juice, so it is more of pasta with sauce rather than a soup. Delicious with lots of fresh cracked black pepper.
I forgot what stunning sunsets the Gulf showcases. Great job catching it's glory. That's a ton of sea shells there. Too bad the weather turned on you while beach camping. Thanks for sharing, stay safe. 🕊
Glad you enjoyed our Gulf Coast area Slim!
Thank you Slim, what a charming video you made for us.
