The big one evades us once again! But that's okay, there's always next time 😉 Our Holiday card tradition carries on at the cabin and we want to extend a massive 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐘𝐨𝐮 for following us throughout the past 3 winters to our special place. We anticipate this may have been one of the pups last journeys out there with their growing age. We hope you enjoy the video ❤ ~ Eric & Arielle
Bo and Bandit are the most fortunate part of your family. They definitely know that they are loved! You two have so much love for them and each other that sometimes it makes me tear up. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your lives.
Ive never known an hour to go by so quickly here on You Tube. I didn't want it to end. This vid encompassed your personalities, your hard work and your compassion and love for Beau and Bandit. From the UK, I began following you at the beginning of the pandemic and while being isolated you took me into your world and I was able to escape with you into the beauty and your life in Alaska. I don't know if you will ever be able to know just how much that meant during such a difficult time, not just for me but many, many others. My heartfelt thanks go to you and I wish you all the very best in whatever you do next. Hugs from across the pond.
Your words simply the depict my experience and love for this couple and their two dogs that mean so much… As a senior loosing eye sight I appreciate what others seem to be what they would say. Eric and Arielle have been a life saver, God bless them.
I watch with my two dogs every time and they really do watch the screen. I have an older dog called Jojo and worry about him everyday lately. Keep up the vids, with the dogs please ;)
that ending was sort of a tear jerker. You guys live life like it should be lived. The pups wouldnt be happy unless they were with you, but i realize how it gets when we get old ... im there.
I can't even, with this video. I am balling my eyes out right now. Y'all are why I don't watch TV anymore. Y'all are so real. The ending kicked my emotional butt. Bo and Bandit will live forever... With all of us.
As the wife to another man named Eric, I think that's an Eric look. My hubby looks at me the way your Eric looks at you. After 20 years, I still see it..🥰 happy valentine's day you two .
As one of I’m sure many thousands of people who adore Bo and Bandit, thank you for being such amazing pup parents. My dogs are both 12 and I know the sadness of watching them slow down. I hope they have many more (slightly less strenuous) adventures ahead.
Because we cast your vlogs to the big screen we rarely comment, but we’re here to say, Bravo! - what a beautiful video this was. We are old folks and wish we’d had the foresight as you’ve had to put our youthful selves onto such endeavours as you’ve done. What rewards the courage, tremendous efforts and willingness to try the unfamiliar have given you! We admire your co-operative, peaceable and loving relationship with each other and your dogs. Thank you all for many happy hours if watching. 💐
Unfortunately in our youth it would have been much harder as we didn’t have all the modern day things they have today. I’m with you though living this lifestyle would have been great and I love living it with them through these videos.
Thank you for taking us along as always. Treasure every moment with your pups, I know you do from your videos. With dogs it seems like we’ve known them forever and at the same time it’s never long enough. ❤️
If I see a video 1 hour long, I literally won't watch except for yours. I would watch if it was 2+ hours long and look forward to every moment. You both have set wonderful examples of how each pet should be given 100% of your devotion and consideration. Thank you for sharing your life with us and may YHVH (God) continue to bless you.
@@SimpleLivingAlaska I hope you keep the cabin. You never know how far deep into isolation you will need to go in the future. Great video, as usual. I always enjoy them. 🙂👍
Did anyone else cry like a baby during the final video montage of the cabin memories? All I know is, when Beau and Bandit cross over, I will be unwell.
Your old boys are adorable. Thank you for letting me live vicariously for a little while! Your videos are a perfect combination of adventure, scenery, great cooking, and really helpful advice for folks.
I can either join my meeting at 4:00, currently 3:54, or I can reschedule and enjoy an hour with this dynamic duo. No brainer, meeting cancellation sent!
Rekeost (and the other tube cheese) is really easy to take with you when hiking. Lots of people just put some plain bread in their backpack and their cheese of choice, and when they need some food - they'll take out a piece of bread and add the cheese. It's good to remember that we rarely have very hot weather in Norway, so it doesn't spoil over several days. You could take it out with you for your trips. As for the sardines - It doesn't store well after opening, so it should be eaten the same day. As for the oil, you can pour over your dogs food. Our old dog would get the oil from the sardines, and his fur would get really shiny and bouncy. Leverpostei - I eat it most days for lunch. I use a little less than you, and spread it out more than you did though, but it's a simple, easy, cheap, and stores well when unopened without refrigeration. Opened and stored in the fridge, it's fine for 5-6 days, if you keep it from drying out (put it upside down on a small plate for instance).
I have watched this three times now and the ending montage still is so completely riveting. It’s so nice to see you both having some relaxing time after working so hard and spending good time with your dogs. Sweet Bo, he was such a good boy.
That is why I LOVE your videos because it's mixed with food prep, less talking to the camera and just have a normal fun conversation.💜 I love that you two are not afraid to try strange foods. Some people can't stand them. Maybe they don't realized the health benefits of Sardines. I like Mackerel Tomatoes Sardines over rice cooked in onion, vegetables or cooked with noodles. 💜 Watching that clips of memories I was a little choked up especially the adorable dogs . 💜
You two amaze me at how much your production quality has increased even when I was totally happy with how it started so many years ago back in Oregon. Once again that is for taking us with you on a trip the vast majority of us will never be able to experience ❤
The Liver Pate, the Rekeost, Brunost and the King Oscar sardines is all normally on most norwegian breakfast tables. The Stabburet Leverpostei just use different photos on the can, but the pate is always the same. Nothing is more norwegian than this 😊
I tried Brunost in Oslo and loved it. Pity we can't get it here in Spain. I always say Lidl should bring Scandinavian products just like they do with Asian, American, etc.
I have two aging dogs, too. So my heart goes out to you guys. I see the love and care you guys have for Bo and Bandit. Give them a hug from an ole southern grandma. I adore you two. God Bless
There is soo much physical work involved in your lifestyle. Thank God for your great health and strength! As a 70+ yo great grandma, it’s very enjoyable to watch all your activities and how well you work as a team! Thx ever so much sharing your beautiful life with us! Susan
I’m not even crying 😭 I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning and really have grown attached to your pups. Even though they are aging you two have gave them an amazing life I’m sure most dogs dream of having. You have done well by them. I hope to see them in future videos. I wish you all the best of luck on your future endeavors and can’t wait to see what the new cabin has in store for you ❤
With tears in my eyes I say thank you for this absolutely wonderful video..to see your love for each other...your dogs...nature..your hard work..the music...omg- I love so much to see your cabin videos. Big hug from Bali.
You guys..I was getting a little teary eyed here! This felt like a memorial video.. Beautiful as always.. But, yep..felt like I should be saying goodbye for some reason..
You guys work harder at having fun than most people do when they work for real. Wish I had your motivation and enthusiasm. Your zest for life is worthy of emulation
I'm really liking how you've blended the adventure with the daily with food-prep with the tastings with the candid segments with the winter-wonderland - and, of course, the pups. Magical. Thank you.
Why did that feel like a goodbye? 😭 It honestly made me emotional! Bo and Bandit live an exciting life of adventure. Even just hanging out on your new property will be loads of fun for them because they will be with you which is all they really want…and food.
Gosh what a wonderful hour spent with the two of you and your beautiful beau and bandit, thank you for sharing your amazing lives with us, sharing beautiful Alaska and teaching us so much about "living each moment" of what is truly a very short time in this world. Thank you so much.
Oh my guys! This episode has been my favorite of all! What an incredible video and how you edited with the music integration is outstanding. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us, your UA-cam family. Hope for longer time and good health for your doggies 🐕 Texas is watching 👀
You both are living life to the fullest. You make it look easy, to pack up and move to start your own, self-reliant living! And you've done a fantastic job. You work hard and you play hard, when you reap the rewards of all your hard work. Taking us along, has been a special gift. Thank you for that. I pray God's protection over you, as you make yet another move, and restart your self-reliant living, somewhere where you have all the space you need to grow.
Guys I’m so jealous, you are truly blessed with a great life. I know it’s a lot of hard work but your magical moments are epic, I have been following you for a few years now and I have to say I feel a little sad seeing the dogs grow old however you have gave them the best life a dog can ask for. Seeing you both at the cabin and fishing laughing and fooling around like best friends who happen to be deeply in love shows how beautiful humanity can be in the harshest of environments. We can all learn something from you both, love these videos ever single week and I always look forward to the next ❤ love from Scotland
Me too! I eagerly check each evening hoping a new one is ready---but now I realize about every 4 or 5 days is when a new one will be up, and I love every minute and sad when its ended!! I work hard at my job even though I am well past retirement age, so these are relaxing to watch at the end of a long hard day, and take me out of the daily routine of my JOB!! God Bless them for making their dream a reality----my wonderful husband passed away at a pretty young age, so a widow can't just have such neat options alone, so vicariously I get to enjoy their awesome life together! Thank you for every video!
Ah, letting them pass over the rainbow bridge is one of the most difficult things I've had to experience in my life. They hold such a special place in our hearts. You have loved them well, and they know it. Thank you for sharing your voyage with me. If only I had known what I know now, I would have embraced Alaska the way the two of you have. Love to all of you from, Michigan. :)
I just love to watch you two having a great time working , playing and living life to the fullest. I'm 88 and close to you know what. Wish I would have and wish I could have. My little misses wouldn't have but.........GH
24:40 I love seeing you guys interact with each other as if the cameras arnt rolling. just as a couple having fun ice fishing. You guys are living the dream !
Oh man the sad music at the end got me in the feels 😭, especially when you showed your dogs. I love my dogs so much and I know it’s tough when pets grow old.
thanks for bring us along during your journey. I have trouble walking so you have helped me to feel the great outdoors through your footsteps. It makes my day.
Watching from Atl, Georgia on a cold Saturday morning. You guys rock. Keep up the magnificent work. Thank god for UA-cam. You guys, along with other are the new discovery channel. Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love your videos. So beautifully filmed and edited. Fascinating content too! I don't know if you've won any UA-cam awards, but show me where to vote.
Yay on the new trail up to the cabin! Crazy river melt. You guys are Herculean!!! Doggies are all warm and happy.🥰🐾🐾 All the best to you two! What a team! 👍🇨🇦💘😎📷❄🔥
I choked up a bit when you mentioned that this may be the last trip for your dogs. They are so precious and such an integral part of your family. I'm praying they live many, many more years. As always, beautiful photography, amazing views and exciting trip to the woods.
Pulled at my heart strings when you said this was the last trip for one of the dogs😞. But senior dogs are definitely not up for such big adventures. Glad to see that they got to see the Alaskan wild so much. And here's to more times just chilling at the new homestead with the doggos
One of your best videos yet I have watched so many but this one is so touching of beau and bandit showing them growing with you they have loved it all and you two beautiful people have given them a wonderful life. Thank you for sharing your lives with all.❣❣
One of my favourite videos from you so far. Always so fun to see you visit the cabin, but it's tinged with sadness knowing the dogs are getting older. They've had such a wonderful life with you both, have been on so many adventures, and the montage at the end of all the memories you've made with them was incredibly sweet 💛
I had a pretty bad day ; and then I discovered that you had posted a one hour video ! What a treat ! And you succeeded in making me smile, which was a challenge today. Thank you for that and what you’re sharing here, always 🙏🏻
Lovely video guys. What a remembrance of you and your pups enjoying and working hard at the cabin, I don't know why but it almost made me cry. Beautiful ending to your video.
This is one of the best videos y'all have published. I loved the banter between you, not to mention your taste testing of all the different snack foods from other countries. The ending was particularly poignant, just beautiful! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING PART OF YOUR LIVES WITH ALL OF US!!!
wonderful!!! over an hour with my favorite Alaskans!!! What a great montage at the end! Although the music at times seemed so melancholy that I thought...uh oh...they're about to make a momentous (meaning sad) announcement....fortunately I was wrong...that really was so beautiful!!
Your photography always makes me love the beauty of Alaska! We lived there almost 40 years ago now . I appreciate you 2 and the kindest and love you share with everyone.
I always get excited when I see a new video, what new adventure will we see. The meals you make at the remote cabin amaze me. Something special was coming when I saw the whipped cream. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
I was so excited when I saw how long the video was. Absolutely amazing! As a huge dog lover, I totally understand the boys not being able to make that trip again. My fur baby is getting older too, and it’s hard. Here is praying that you all continue to have many more adventures together. Even if they are not at the cabin. The end of the video was so beautiful I cried! Y’all are so blessed, and we are so blessed for you allowing us to share in your lives. 🐶🐶❤️
Having followed you for many many years first when we lived in Spain and now in Portugal, I have to say it's awesome to have the chance to follow your adventures. But I do get a little pinch in my heart when I see your boyz getting older as I'm sure you do too. Sweet Beau is now greyer than ever and has little cloudy eyes, Bandit has sure calmed down a lot too. There's much to say about having ageing dogs and you guys sure take great care of yours
What an incredible “episode”, I don’t really know what else to call it. This was probably one of the best I’ve seen, I appreciate you sharing it with us. Everything about it was fantastic, the genuine love you have for the outdoors, each other and the two old “men” is refreshing to watch. And I wholeheartedly agree with what most are saying that the last montage hits you right in the feels. Sorry for the long comment and I doubt you will ever see it but thank you for sharing your adventures!
I agree with the comment that I've never known an hour to go by so quickly here on UA-cam!! Just delightful and truly therapeutic to watch!! Stunning scenery and you guys are excellent at capturing it all!! Blessings to you!!
Great video! Your filming, cinemaphotography, editing and music selections are spot on. Thank you for allowing us to experience your adventures though the lens. ❤
I am so SHOCKED that you don’t have at least 1,000,000 viewers...you always have the most incredible videos. You achieve/accomplish so much, your sweet presence together and your amazing cooking etc..is so awesome! I never want your video to end and i always wish i could come alone. God bless!
I love you guys! The end of this video brought me to tears. I love your sweet boys and know the trip is rough on them. I liked seeing the montage at the end. Keep living your simple Alaskan life, and thanks for allowing us to go along!
The big one evades us once again! But that's okay, there's always next time 😉
Our Holiday card tradition carries on at the cabin and we want to extend a massive 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐘𝐨𝐮 for following us throughout the past 3 winters to our special place. We anticipate this may have been one of the pups last journeys out there with their growing age. We hope you enjoy the video ❤

Thank You for sharing your “family” with us all! We enJOY it all 🙌🏻☮️💟✝️😊
So sorry...your pups have had a great life with the 2 of you.
I thoroughly enjoyed the video with the montage of memories at the end. Thank you as always for sharing your sweet and special lives with us!
Do the dogs do better traveling by boat? Bo always seems to enjoy it. Edit: I meant Bandit. Lol But Bo seems to do well on the boat too.
I really enjoy your videos !! Love the sweet pups and it’s hard to see them age. They are living their best life with you both❤
Bo and Bandit are the most fortunate part of your family. They definitely know that they are loved! You two have so much love for them and each other that sometimes it makes me tear up. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your lives.
Me too. I don't know why but I cried at the end of this video ???
Thats why i watch ,, the dogs ,, they are very good to them ,,,,, hope they many more good times ,,,
Until you meet my 2 best friends blk lab & Dutch shepherd the most loved dogs on the planet .
Ive never known an hour to go by so quickly here on You Tube. I didn't want it to end. This vid encompassed your personalities, your hard work and your compassion and love for Beau and Bandit. From the UK, I began following you at the beginning of the pandemic and while being isolated you took me into your world and I was able to escape with you into the beauty and your life in Alaska. I don't know if you will ever be able to know just how much that meant during such a difficult time, not just for me but many, many others. My heartfelt thanks go to you and I wish you all the very best in whatever you do next. Hugs from across the pond.
Your words simply the depict my experience and love for this couple and their two dogs that mean so much…
As a senior loosing eye sight I appreciate what others seem to be what they would say. Eric and Arielle have been a life saver, God bless them.
2/18/23 what a great video. Thank you so much for sharing.
Oh my stars yes!!! Time flies!!
Well said! Just what I needed to see in our world of crazy!
Your words match my thoughts exactly.
Animals are special. Bo and Bandit have loving parents that have cared for them and taken them on amazing journey’s. Hope they have many many more.
We all love animals but we could see also happy end or rather new beginning of this lovely fun couple with their first child...God bless
I hope both Bo and Bandit have many many many more adventures left with you guys. ❤
We hope that as well 🥰
I was completely teary at the end with their sweet old faces😢
I watch with my two dogs every time and they really do watch the screen. I have an older dog called Jojo and worry about him everyday lately.
Keep up the vids, with the dogs please ;)
It's not over till it is !!!
@@gardeneroncarriagehill As was I 🥹
The last part of the video made want to cry. The beauty is incredible , the fun is obvious , the love for each other is apparent. Thanks guys !
i did cry :'( lol
that ending was sort of a tear jerker. You guys live life like it should be lived. The pups wouldnt be happy unless they were with you, but i realize how it gets when we get old ... im there.
I can't even, with this video. I am balling my eyes out right now. Y'all are why I don't watch TV anymore. Y'all are so real. The ending kicked my emotional butt. Bo and Bandit will live forever... With all of us.
Well said! And ditto
The ending to your video is amazing! What a beautiful life you have created. It's a privilege to watch & thank you for sharing it. 💜
As the wife to another man named Eric, I think that's an Eric look. My hubby looks at me the way your Eric looks at you. After 20 years, I still see it..🥰 happy valentine's day you two
.
Is it just me, the loving way Eric was looking at Ariel at the start of the video absolutely heartwarming? 🥰
As one of I’m sure many thousands of people who adore Bo and Bandit, thank you for being such amazing pup parents. My dogs are both 12 and I know the sadness of watching them slow down. I hope they have many more (slightly less strenuous) adventures ahead.
my dog is 13 and yes its really sad. all we can do is give them the best life possible and all the love

Unfortunately in our youth it would have been much harder as we didn’t have all the modern day things they have today.
I’m with you though living this lifestyle would have been great and I love living it with them through these videos.
@SimpleLivingAlaska Those last 6 minutes of the video!!! ❤ ❤ Amazing guys!!!

I feel like this was your goodbye video to your cabin since you’re moving in the spring. Lots of good memories either way. Love your channel.
I think in a way it was, for now at least ❤
@@SimpleLivingAlaska I hope you keep the cabin. You never know how far deep into isolation you will need to go in the future. Great video, as usual. I always enjoy them. 🙂👍
I felt the same way. Loved all the videos from the remote cabin. I hope to see many more adventures from the new place.
Why can't you keep it as well?
@@SimpleLivingAlaska If so, the music was a gorgeous requiem.
Did anyone else cry like a baby during the final video montage of the cabin memories? All I know is, when Beau and Bandit cross over, I will be unwell.
I certainly did 😥😢
I just had something in my eye.
Same.
Unthinkable
Indeed I did.
Your old boys are adorable. Thank you for letting me live vicariously for a little while! Your videos are a perfect combination of adventure, scenery, great cooking, and really helpful advice for folks.
That last segment made me teary-eyed. Bo and Bandit have stolen my heart.
I can either join my meeting at 4:00, currently 3:54, or I can reschedule and enjoy an hour with this dynamic duo. No brainer, meeting cancellation sent!
Great choice!
captivating and enthralling.. and... the outro was a beautiful majestic ribbon.. my heart is full.. thankyou. much love xx
Been waiting for you two to update. I never imagine someone else’s life would give me this contentment
Rekeost (and the other tube cheese) is really easy to take with you when hiking. Lots of people just put some plain bread in their backpack and their cheese of choice, and when they need some food - they'll take out a piece of bread and add the cheese. It's good to remember that we rarely have very hot weather in Norway, so it doesn't spoil over several days. You could take it out with you for your trips.
As for the sardines - It doesn't store well after opening, so it should be eaten the same day. As for the oil, you can pour over your dogs food. Our old dog would get the oil from the sardines, and his fur would get really shiny and bouncy.
Leverpostei - I eat it most days for lunch. I use a little less than you, and spread it out more than you did though, but it's a simple, easy, cheap, and stores well when unopened without refrigeration. Opened and stored in the fridge, it's fine for 5-6 days, if you keep it from drying out (put it upside down on a small plate for instance).
Loved, loved , loved the interaction between you two. Thanks for letting us be apart of your lives.
I have watched this three times now and the ending montage still is so completely riveting. It’s so nice to see you both having some relaxing time after working so hard and spending good time with your dogs. Sweet Bo, he was such a good boy.
That is why I LOVE your videos because it's mixed with food prep, less talking to the camera and just have a normal fun conversation.💜 I love that you two are not afraid to try strange foods.

The Liver Pate, the Rekeost, Brunost and the King Oscar sardines is all normally on most norwegian breakfast tables. The Stabburet Leverpostei just use different photos on the can, but the pate is always the same. Nothing is more norwegian than this 😊
And Swedish tables... maybe not the Brunost but we have Messmör and that's in the same category. 🙂
Brunost typisk norsk.haha
🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴
Danish liver pate is the best! Dont forget that! With røbeter hehe
I tried Brunost in Oslo and loved it. Pity we can't get it here in Spain. I always say Lidl should bring Scandinavian products just like they do with Asian, American, etc.
I have two aging dogs, too. So my heart goes out to you guys. I see the love and care you guys have for Bo and Bandit. Give them a hug from an ole southern grandma. I adore you two. God Bless
Bandit takes his time and makes his bed just right and Bo's bed is just pretty much wherever you plop him down. 🤣🤣 Cool pups!
There is soo much physical work involved in your lifestyle. Thank God for your great health and strength! As a 70+ yo great grandma, it’s very enjoyable to watch all your activities and how well you work as a team! Thx ever so much sharing your beautiful life with us! Susan
Magnificent scenery. Thank you for sharing Alaska's beauty with all of us.
Miss both you and of course your dog's thank you for letting us follow you never dull
The amount of work that both of you have put into your lifestyle is simply beyond comparison!!😎🥶
I love how considerate you are for your lovely dogs as they get older, to make sure they still get a wonderful life with you
This one was magical, like the life of those sweet doggies. Love you guys just alone for that gift to them. ❤🧚♀️
Glorious!! To be able to tag along with you both and the "puppies" is a real gift. Thank you. Liz
I’m not even crying 😭
I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning and really have grown attached to your pups. Even though they are aging you two have gave them an amazing life I’m sure most dogs dream of having.

You have loved them well, and they know it. Thank you for sharing your voyage with me. If only I had known what I know now, I would have embraced Alaska the way the two of you have. Love to all of you from, Michigan. :)
I just love to watch you two having a great time working , playing and living life to the fullest. I'm 88 and close to you know what. Wish I would have and wish I could have. My little misses wouldn't have but.........GH
I'm not going to be sad for Bandit and Bo because they will have wonderful times in their new cabin. I can't wait to see them there.
24:40 I love seeing you guys interact with each other as if the cameras arnt rolling. just as a couple having fun ice fishing. You guys are living the dream !
I can't even find the words this video was so beautiful at the ending so beautiful your dogs have the best life yall give so many memories
Oh man the sad music at the end got me in the feels 😭, especially when you showed your dogs. I love my dogs so much and I know it’s tough when pets grow old.
thanks for bring us along during your journey. I have trouble walking so you have helped me to feel the great outdoors through your footsteps. It makes my day.
Watching from Atl, Georgia on a cold Saturday morning. You guys rock. Keep up the magnificent work. Thank god for UA-cam. You guys, along with other are the new discovery channel. Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wishing Bo and Bandit many more memories with you both. Form Portland, Oregon
He was EVERYTHING. And EVERYTHING u needed. I love that man’s. BO.
I love your videos. So beautifully filmed and edited. Fascinating content too! I don't know if you've won any UA-cam awards, but show me where to vote.
Yay on the new trail up to the cabin! Crazy river melt. You guys are Herculean!!! Doggies are all warm and happy.🥰🐾🐾 All the best to you two! What a team! 👍🇨🇦💘😎📷❄🔥
I choked up a bit when you mentioned that this may be the last trip for your dogs. They are so precious and such an integral part of your family. I'm praying they live many, many more years. As always, beautiful photography, amazing views and exciting trip to the woods.
We have loved it as much as you have 😄 Thank you 🙏
Both Bo and Bandit have certainly had many many adventures with you both. Great lives lived
Your music has improved considerably over the years... beautiful! Now that you moved farther away, will you ever make it back to this cabin??? 🤔🤔🤔
Pulled at my heart strings when you said this was the last trip for one of the dogs😞. But senior dogs are definitely not up for such big adventures. Glad to see that they got to see the Alaskan wild so much. And here's to more times just chilling at the new homestead with the doggos
Just beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Beautiful ending. You guys are so blessed. Thank you for sharing your life, Bo, Bandit and pepper with us.
One of your best videos yet I have watched so many but this one is so touching of beau and bandit showing them growing with you they have loved it all and you two beautiful people have given them a wonderful life. Thank you for sharing your lives with all.❣❣
One of my favourite videos from you so far. Always so fun to see you visit the cabin, but it's tinged with sadness knowing the dogs are getting older. They've had such a wonderful life with you both, have been on so many adventures, and the montage at the end of all the memories you've made with them was incredibly sweet 💛
Love the drone shots over the snow covered trees. Looks like a fairy tale.
I had a pretty bad day ; and then I discovered that you had posted a one hour video ! What a treat ! And you succeeded in making me smile, which was a challenge today.
Thank you for that and what you’re sharing here, always 🙏🏻
Sorry you are having a bad day. Tomorrow will be much better always keep that in mind.
Hoping you have better days ahead!!
@@judygillespie3242 thank you so much !
@@PatrickWagz thanks a lot !
I love watching the both of you spending time together……you were made for each other. Your dogs are absolutely adorable!
Lovely video guys. What a remembrance of you and your pups enjoying and working hard at the cabin, I don't know why but it almost made me cry. Beautiful ending to your video.
I enjoy ya'll so much. Such a sweet couple with all their "babies"
This is one of the best videos y'all have published. I loved the banter between you, not to mention your taste testing of all the different snack foods from other countries. The ending was particularly poignant, just beautiful! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING PART OF YOUR LIVES WITH ALL OF US!!!
You will always have these beautiful memories ❤
Thank you for sharing your life with us. The look back footage was precious. Looking forward to your new adventures.
Your doggies are so sweet…it’s wonderful how you care for them❤️❤️❤️✌️
wonderful!!! over an hour with my favorite Alaskans!!! What a great montage at the end! Although the music at times seemed so melancholy that I thought...uh oh...they're about to make a momentous (meaning sad) announcement....fortunately I was wrong...that really was so beautiful!!
Your photography always makes me love the beauty of Alaska! We lived there almost 40 years ago now . I appreciate you 2 and the kindest and love you share with everyone.
I always get excited when I see a new video, what new adventure will we see. The meals you make at the remote cabin amaze me. Something special was coming when I saw the whipped cream. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
Oh my. Bo. We love you…good man.
I was so excited when I saw how long the video was. Absolutely amazing! As a huge dog lover, I totally understand the boys not being able to make that trip again. My fur baby is getting older too, and it’s hard. Here is praying that you all continue to have many more adventures together. Even if they are not at the cabin. The end of the video was so beautiful I cried! Y’all are so blessed, and we are so blessed for you allowing us to share in your lives. 🐶🐶❤️
Your commitment to each other is very refreshing.... That man adores you!!!
Having followed you for many many years first when we lived in Spain and now in Portugal, I have to say it's awesome to have the chance to follow your adventures. But I do get a little pinch in my heart when I see your boyz getting older as I'm sure you do too. Sweet Beau is now greyer than ever and has little cloudy eyes, Bandit has sure calmed down a lot too. There's much to say about having ageing dogs and you guys sure take great care of yours
This seemed like a goodbye to an old friend. Glad you said you'd be coming back. God bless
What an incredible “episode”, I don’t really know what else to call it. This was probably one of the best I’ve seen, I appreciate you sharing it with us. Everything about it was fantastic, the genuine love you have for the outdoors, each other and the two old “men” is refreshing to watch. And I wholeheartedly agree with what most are saying that the last montage hits you right in the feels. Sorry for the long comment and I doubt you will ever see it but thank you for sharing your adventures!
I agree with the comment that I've never known an hour to go by so quickly here on UA-cam!! Just delightful and truly therapeutic to watch!! Stunning scenery and you guys are excellent at capturing it all!! Blessings to you!!
Great video! Your filming, cinemaphotography, editing and music selections are spot on. Thank you for allowing us to experience your adventures though the lens. ❤
I am so SHOCKED that you don’t have at least 1,000,000 viewers...you always have the most incredible videos. You achieve/accomplish so much, your sweet presence together and your amazing cooking etc..is so awesome! I never want your video to end and i always wish i could come alone. God bless!
Such a beautiful montage at the end! The music was an artistic touch… I felt myself getting all sentimental. Absolutely love your work!
It was a really nice video.
I love you guys! The end of this video brought me to tears. I love your sweet boys and know the trip is rough on them. I liked seeing the montage at the end. Keep living your simple Alaskan life, and thanks for allowing us to go along!
