I am a 74 year old widow living in Kansas. I lost my hubby of 55 years last year. I fractured two vertebrae in April. I spent some time in the hospital. I am finally getting better. My husband and I loved travel, fishing and the magical beauty of nature. Your videos have kept me entertained during my long recovery. My goal is to do an Alaskan cruise sometime soon. Thank you.

Hi y’all l love ur family the way u use raspberries & garden veggies. A clean living no alcohol. Many years ago l did have a beer after l washed my car. Also l decided not to drink. I take pain meds & l think it’s the best way to live. It makes life simple. Keep on living a wonderful life u & Mark r setting the bar high with great examples of how to live a clean life. Enjoy u travels & life in Alaska. It reminds me how my family did road trips & camping in our tent trailer that my Dad built & ordered canvas to fit. Great momories from childhood. ❤B.

Nice to have some fresh fish albeit not your preferred fish. The eagles certainly were not fussy about the breed of fish. That waterfall was just beautiful. It might not have been all the you wanted weather wise but you guys still had a ball. You managed to get some fish ( small but edible). It seemed to me that your break away was wonderful, family love and happiness is all you need. Stay blessed ❤
