I was one of those who discovered you through the viral shout out made but I love your content. I used to hike and camp a lot growing up but post graduate education has sortof mostly stalled my outdoor adventures. Your videos have motivated me to want to get out more so when I do take some time, it usually involves maximising outdoors as much as possible. I recently took a week to just take daily hikes, take some time alone, enjoy being amongst the trees and it was the best thing I could do to relieve some stress and to centre oneself again. Watching your videos bring me back and definitely remind to take time outdoors! Thanks and take a hike ! ;)
I'm one of those people who subbed back then, but don't watch. RU-vid just recommended me this video now though. It's good to see you again after a while
I hope that you know that you are valued and appreciated here. I love to watch your videos when I am sad and confused. When my emotions are so blurred that I don’t know how to manage them. I love that you see life like an adventure. You make me want to hike. I love to know a little bit more about you. Your warmth makes me happy
Same here 😂 after I watched his vid I haven't been able to stop I think I'm on night 5 yummy tip add really finely chopped bell pepper let me know what u think
I am blessed to have grown up on the south west coast of Ireland. A river runs through our little town, surrounded by woods and minutes from a rugged coastline, nature abounds, refusing to go unacknowledged. There is noting so magical as walking, hiking, sitting with oneself in the stillness of nature, yet the quiet is a chorus of natures sounds that cradles us into a sublime sense of oneness. Mother nature returns the hug.
Lovely Q&A! Thank you for sharing! I just love watching your videos, they’re such a lovely corner of the internet. Thank you for being willing to put in the work and share your walks with your sweet girl Summit!
I love this! Thanks so much for doing a Q and A! So interesting to learn more about you. Were you in the military? How do you feel about pineapple on pizza? Would you ever think about opening a PO box so we can send you and Summit some treats? Take care of yourself!
The way you speak is just so smoothing. It's so good to see you again. I come back to Your chancel every now and then and i love coming back and seeing you happy. Please stay Healthy and always keep smiling. We all love you granpa ❤❤️
I agree that nature is a spiritual place. I don’t personally identify with a specific religion, but when I’m in nature I feel such a connection to the land, the animals, the sounds. There’s no place I’d rather be!
I don’t identify with a particular theology. For me, God is everything and everything is God. I don’t imagine God as a deity. It’s my own philosophy and I don’t expect all to agree. God is the mountain, and God can also be found in the void that occupies the space between the nucleus and the proton and electron that collectively form the mountain. Be blessed ❤️
I love your nature videos. Love to see Summit in your nature videos, so you can put a bit more of her in. Also like these Q&A videos. Keep up the good work, you might not have a million viewers per video, but you will always have viewers. Thank you for sharing 👍😀
I'm so happy to hear that grandpa has a girlfriend! I think we can be perfectly content by ourselves, but it does make me happy to know he has a companion ✨️
"Nature is my cathedral.. it's where I find God." Boring Old Guy 2024 Oregon has 238 cataloged waterfalls likely there's closer to 300. Are you sitting down?? Washington has 3,000!! 😮 I watched a special on the 2010 discovery of the falls named Vahalla in Oregon. You are correct.. we do live in a magnificent spot. Trees, Rivers, Ocean, Wildlife and dudes asking for money in the park. Lol I tell people I don't carry cash also. 🤷♀️ Stay safe, healthy and happy!!

Q&A: 1. Do you like to watch any collegiate sports? If so, what teams do you root for? (We love WY Cowboys, MT Grizz, Gonzaga, and Notre Dame) 2. Have you visited Butte, MT or any part of MT? (We have family out there.) 3. If we take a trip out PNW, where are the top 3 places in nature we should visit? Thank you ♥️ - Clouse Family in Arkansas
I loved learning more about your life and your family. Sending love to you, your daughter, and grandkids - 🖕🏼cancer! I hope you’re feeling better these days.

being surrounded by nature is truly the best feeling! thank you for sharing more about yourself, i love your content and its always a joy to see a new video❤ sending love to you and your family!
I love your content so much but youtube a lot of times doesn't show me your new videos. I think sometimes the algorithm of youtube isn't too consistent but anytime your videos pops up I love watching them. They are always so comforting to watch and I live in the PNW so I love seeing other creators in my area, so glad I discovered your channel ☺☺
Oh my dearest ❤ I enjoy these getting to know you videos just as much as your other ones 🎉 So happy that you have a someone in your life to adore the person you are but if you ever need another someone I got a ticket 😆😆 Didn’t know you were from a place called tuna town in cali ! My heart breaks for your son in laws passing 😢 I hope that calm and peace will come in time ! Hope you get to have some hike time coming your way soon 🌳🏕️🌴 Sending you the blessings xx stay well
Nice to hear about your family! I don’t get back to Humboldt often enough! ❤ I love the woods too… but now we’re in SW Idaho! I do get to go north a bit and forage for elderberries! Hey… for poison oak… we always use Palmolive dish soap to wash our hands! Also If we’ve been hiking through poison oak… we take a shower using Marie’s poison oak soap! Hope this helps someone!🍂🐿🍂
Love the q & a videos and I have your chicken bake recipe on my list of recipes to make this month because it looks amazing. Your positive attitude is so infectious, keep it up!!
So fun to hear more of your story! Nothing like a childhood surrounded by nature ❤️ When you call nature your cathedral, it reminds me of “Some keep the Sabbath going to Church” by Emily Dickinson. “An orchard for a dome” 😌
