I have to admit that I do miss new videos more often but having said that, it’s definitely a fair trade off for the quality of content that you’re creating for us. I’ve been watching from the beginning of your channel and can say with out question that you should be winning awards for your cinematography. I live on the Peninsula where the view is beautiful no matter which way you look but you’ve convinced me to do some traveling because you seem to be able to make everywhere you go look amazing! Thanks again for sharing with us.

It truly blows my mind when I see such large areas of beautiful nature that isn't over run with buildings and homes and paved roads. My mind almost can not comprehend it. This world is so populated but there are still these quiet expanses with just Mother Nature and her children with the occasional human, so relatively untouched. I don't get to travel like I would love to, I have been wanting to build out a van and explore the beautiful United States and into Canada ever since my husband passed away 5 years ago. As I am not financially in a place that allows that I really appreciate the effort you put in to sharing your adventures through the wilds of nature!!! Keep it up and God Bless!
