Sweet room! I like the tract lighting along the ceiling. Nice little side veranda there. It's great that they have so many benches along the boardwalk. Looks like that boardwalk is maintained really well, too. This video made me want to get oceanside; it's been a while for me.
I enjoyed day two of your trip. Lovely walk along the harbor, and I really enjoyed the cruise. I agree with Donna. Walking in that soft sand is hard to do. Lovely sunset 😃
Looks like you're staying at a very nice place. The harbor cruise looked like a relaxing way to learn about the area. Also such a pretty pastel sky by the pier.
Beautiful place! Sorry you all couldn't get into the welcome center. Tbe myrtle craps looks beautiful. I love the garden! You and Donna had a beautiful sunset on the bay. I enjoyed your getaway 😃
We've kayaked from peacock Rd several times and I've never seen the water that low. IIRC it gets deeper pretty soon. Too bad you couldn't launch but thanks for a good hiking video.
I wasn't sure about the water level, but I wasn't expecting that dry. I thought I was on that trail once, but I am mistaken. I enjoyed the hike, though. Thanks for watching
Another great hike in the books and content for us viewers. Glad to see you out an about camping, hiking, and sharing some stories this summer! An appreciate Donna for letting you out of the house! 😂 It always pays off in some great content. Am planning a waterfall trip this fall when the color is great and the falls are flowing and you’ve just added this one to the growing list. Keep inspiring and waddling!
Adding this one to the list of trails to hike when I visit Mashannon. Thanks for taking us along! Reminds me of the trails I just hiked in NY as our peak season for their highbush blueberries which are all along the trails and one of the best trail treats I’ve ever had. Have been particularly fascinated with the American bison after reading an excellent book titled “American Buffalo” by Steve Rinella that I highly recommend. They are a truly special and uniquely American species that we almost lost for the ages. Keep waddling and sharing the adventures!
Catching up on a lot of RU-vid videos after vacation and a backlog of excellent Quiet John content. I’ll brag that I DID know what those containers were for as I did a paper in high school on bull genetics and science of collecting and storing. Not sure how loudly I should brag about that though. 😂 Next time you are thinking about coming to Berks my home county let me know so I can 1) meet up, and 2) scout ahead for you and save you a trip if the conditions aren’t good. 👍🏻
That really was interesting! I'm sorry you couldn't kayak, I am sure it would have felt better being on the water. I did enjoy the hike, I hope it wasn't too uncomfortable in the humidity. The Stilling Basin had a great flow! I am glad you didn't attempt that. It seems like a day of too little or too much. I enjoyed hearing from the ranger. I think you scared the ranger 😅
When you first started this video and was talking to the gentleman about his profession, I did not expect that! I thought maybe water samples. I was way off in my guess 😀 I enjoyed how you got the ranger to explain what was happening with them lowering the water level.
Yes, interesting profession, isn't it? I wasn't sure about including this because of the deicate material, but he told me he goes to schools and gives presentations. I didn't think I could get the Ranger on either. Would you put your kyack in Stilling Basin for a fantastic ride?
I think you made a good choice on not launching your kayak today. I’m guessing the ride down would go easy but the ride back not so much. Good video John you always post good content but you certainly outdid yourself today. Thanks and be safe
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Hope you got to see Part 1. It was a great time, but I am a little disappointed to get away from the crowd. So glad for Ron
7:15 I could see myself relaxing there, too, enjoying the scents carried to me on the breezes, mmm. 16:39 I wonder, does lavendar grow best on high ground with plenty of sun? 29:04 OK, so the bottles are pretty much just decoration, then? 32:29 Aromatic sumac must be different from poison sumac, since she grabbed a handful and put it right to her nose, lol. Nice tour, John!
Hi, John. Thanks for watching. I do enjoy gardens. Yes, I liked that, too. Sometimes, I think I should have grown more privacy shrubbery a long time ago. Yes, lavender does enjoy the sun, just like I do
I've been up there three or four times in twenty years looking for it. I have been in the vicinity, but no, I haven't found it. Porcupine Pat tells me it is there, though. It's very close to the water tank.
Looks like a nice tour and educational event to learn about the gardens. I love lavender and liked when you showed us that. Also interesting to see the serviceberry.
Hello John, I met you at the June YT meetup recently at Little Buffalo. I sat with you for a bit on a bench on the trail. After watching a few of your video, I know you much better. Your time with Pap sounds very special. You have a remarkable way of telling a story. Thank you very much for sharing your experiences with the YT community!!! You certainly earned my subscription. Hike on my friend...👊🏻😀!!!
Thanks very much for your kind words. I appreciate you subscribing to my channel. It's been five years this summer for it. I enjoy making the videos. Keeps me busy. Yes, I remember you sitting on the bench and talking about how much I like benches. Have a great rest of the summer.
I am a month or two behind on my watch list, and who's next? He's none other than Quiet John Out and About. A beautiful park, a lovely walk and a gentle paddle. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
The youtuber who walked with me was Ron from TravelingRonman. I'm so glad we did meet, also. I'm not sure who the young man was, though. Isn't it something how RU-vid can connect. I have a few subscribers that you sent my way. Oh, maybe it was Bill from MaskimOutdoors that heard of you. Maybe from my mentions. Thanks for all your kind words.
I am so happy to see part 2 of your meet-up. I enjoyed the walk through the cemetery. The museum is nice, I saw some of that on other channels. I can't believe someone out there has heard of me 😅 I do appreciate the shout-out, my friend! Of course, I was going to watch this 😊 I am having trouble finding the young mans channel. Also, who was the gentleman who was kind enough to walk with you along the trail? The Carrizo Plain is beautiful especially when in bloom 😊 You are such a kind soul, Ibam so glad we have connected here.
I'm glad you got to see the museum and cemetery. We had a nice little adventure of our own. I enjoyed your company and hopefully I'll see you along the road.
This looks like a fantastic state park! I recognized that frog squeak at the pond. Wonderful trail, and it was nice to hear all the birds. I always enjoy trails that have boardwalks. Beautiful capture of the bobcat! 😊
That was neat to see the bison on your way to the trail. Its going to be very neat when all the berries along the trail ripen. Also there were some beautiful, thick ferns along this trail. I always think they are such beautiful plants to see on a hike.
It's always a treat to see buffalo. There's a buffalo farm near us outside of Flemington, NJ where they are always roaming the field. I can't resist gazing at them whenever I drive past.
