- Welcome back to Lodge Life!
As usual, this week is full of adventure as I'm about to take some days off. Christian and Dwayne are holding down the fort as Ted, Seanick and myself are heading home for a few days. For me that means meeting up with Brent, Minnie and the RV somewhere in BC which requires a vehicle... and my car is at my parents house in Barrhead, Alberta.
So I called my brother, Kris. He called me back in half an hour and agreed to drive my car to Vancouver then fly home the next day. Luckily he was able to fit me in to his schedule. What an awesome brother to have!
After getting my car I drove up the Coquihalla highway to Merritt and met Brent. We spent a night in Quilchena which was a flashback. We both led such different lives when we met there 10 years ago. We then continued through Kamloops, Clinton, Cache Creek towards Chasm. Up a logging road and into the middle of nowhere where I discovered there was a hole in my tire. We had it towed to 100 mile house where I could pick it up with brand new tires on Monday. Just in time to head back to work.
I hope you enjoyed watching this video and if you did, please subscribe!!
Take care until next time!
We love your adventures! We live in the Cariboo ourselves and are enjoying watching your videos. Thank you for allowing up to follow along 💜
Food, friends, travel, fishing and your amazing videos! Hard to top that.
So true! Just missing family
I absolutely love to see people who fish like you and your friends do. No showboating or carrying on. Gentle treatment of the fish. Respectful in every way. I LOVE it!
No need to apologize. Your explanation is all we need. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!
Thank you so much. These small fish need to be handled carefully! Thank you for understanding with not being able to reply to every comment! I appreciate your support!
Great content once again, good job!
What a great provence we live in. Thanks for the mini tour.
Absolutely agree! Thanks for your comment!
Growing up on the central coast, I remember people taking crab apart before cooking, cleaning out the guts, etc. we always cooked whole.
I’ve only ever cooked them whole but I can see how it might be convenient to clean them first. There’s so many ways of doing things. That’s what I love about cooking.
living the life good for you guys
Thank you!!!
Beautiful British Columbia!
👋🇨🇦😁
Absolutely 💯 love this province!
Hey Jenny glad everything worked out for you and stay awesome
Thank you so much!! I’m so glad it worked out also! I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get back to work on time!
Sure miss living on the coast and FRESH seafood!
Yes!! I sure do love all the fresh seafood. The next video coming out has something new from the ocean that I’ve never cooked before. I’m excited to share it with you
Oh Jenny! That tow bill 😳. So glad you had a great few days off though! I am soooo jealous your went to Pink Pearl. Hope you had a safe trip back up. Look forward to the next one :)
Yeah the tow bill wasn’t fun but there was nothing I could do… except to try to stay calm and not let it ruin my time off.
Pink Pearl was amazing! My favourite are the “footballs” the deep fried pork dumpling. Omg!!!!! Thanks for watching Vanessa!!
Great video!
Thank you so much for watching!!!
Just another great video! Sad to see the part where our forest was burned, love your content so much❤🇨🇦
Ur vids rock. Im going cronie fishing too..Tunkwa lake! Looking forward to the next..
Thank you!! I’m so happy you’re enjoying my video! Tight lines!
Dear Jenny. You don't have to comment back to us. Just make this lovely vlogs! To me it is a present to be aloud to be a part of your life. With big cheers from Hamburg, Germany!
Love the simplicity of it all Jenny so calming thank you.
Thank you as always for your videos! I so enjoy all of your content.
Thanks for the tip on prawn heads.
You bet! Thanks for watching!!
Your stories are inspiring !
Thank you so much!!! ☺️
i love that i found your channel, i gives me my fix from the mountains while im away for school in Toronto. I hope the martin didn't make too much of a mess in your kitchen, looking forward to that video. Your editing and music choice is so soothing especially first thing in the morning. Thank you for sharing the vibes with all of us, Take care & Give care :)
No worries Jenny. Great video as usual and love the aerial footage. Take care.☮️🇨🇦
Thank you so much! I appreciate your support!
i love with this way of enjoying life, thanks for sharing.
Looks like you were very busy on your time off. What a difference between ocean fishing in Mexico and stillwater in the Caribou. Another great video, thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
You are so good, figuring out what to cook. Clever turning fish scraps into another gourmet meal. Planning and food usage like that takes being a chef to the next level. Can't wait for the next video.!
Thank you so much Charlie!! We have a new staff member here who’s celiac vegan so now there’s an extra few steps to every meal. We also have some very picky eaters so they don’t like vegan food. So now there’s 2 meals at every meal haha
You bring such a peace and calmness to the videos.
See you back at the Lodge.
Just about to take off now! Thanks!
Keep doing what you are doing. I look forward to seeing your new content each time. Fantastic editing. I truly appreciate your efforts. Thank-you.
Enjoying your travels, thanks Jenny!
Thanks for sharing your part of the world. Aloha from Hawaii
Another great video Jenny, I really do love that Canadian wilderness just takes my breath away, as for the flat Tyre one stubborn nut cost you a tow but I reckon you found the best way to fill in the time, that lake was beautiful and it was awesome to me to see you catch and release some those beautiful salmon, not something we have here in NZ and I have never tried fly fishing here anyway, maybe I need to chill out more 🤣🤣 l think if I had made a serious attempt to travel earlier in life I could have settled in Canada quite well. Don't stress if you can't always reply to me anyway you have a busy life and you're taking us all along with you 😋👍🇳🇿
Hi jenny..great vid as usual..that balcony view of the ocean was awesome..it's good to meet another dim sum fan..lol..have a good week! 😁👍
Those spot prawns looked huge! great job on the video. Cheers from Victoria
Stumbled across your channel. I worked as a guide for a couple seasons in Hakai Pass a number of years ago. Greatest time of my life! Looking forward to more vids, safe travels!👍
Took a short ride to Lone Butte, back in the 80's ,nice to see that country again !
The fishing it amazing !
The morels, ,, I'd pass on the fishing, I think, and would have been scrounging, although that far north, it may be a bit early.
Wonderful dogs, everywhere ,,,
I'm still amazed at how much time and effort it takes to open a lodge up after the winter, in Rivers.
Broken water lines after a winter closed up,
must be a Canadian tradition ,,, we had a air inlet in our lines on our camp on Lake Superior to blow them out with a small compressor ,
copper lines are a bitch to repair in the spring.
Hi! Lone Butte area is beautiful for sure. I’m glad you enjoyed the video! The ice came off quite early this year and the plants are coming early as well! No snow at all which is odd for May.
Luckily the guys were able to fix the water lines yesterday and yes it is a tradition haha
We have visited BC many times but the places you have shown us are beyond beautiful. Is it possible to book at Good Hope ?
Thankyou so much for your videos they are stunning.
Those shrimp 🦐 prawns 🍤 look delicious!
Right?! They were sooo good!! Thanks for watching!
You do a great job on the comments! Thank you!
Loving your channel Jenny. I grew up spending summer's at Pender Harbour just down the coast from River's Inlet so this channel brings back alot of great memories. Looking forward to the next video. Cheers!
It always makes me happy to hear from folks who spent time here on the west coast. I’m so glad you’re enjoying my west coast videos. Thanks for watching!!
Another great video. Thank you! 😊

Wait what?! There's Korean fried chicken in Merritt?? I guess my lunch plan for tomorrow is changing now when I drive through. 😂
Top notch video content lately Jenny!

Another great video Jenny, we live in Port Hardy and if you ever have time you might enjoy exploring around here. There is a lot of interesting things and places to visit.
Thank you so much!!
I’m in port Hardy at this very moment! Just drive around town a bit with Ted and now heading to the airport. I’d love to explore the surrounding area more some day. Thanks for watching!
I work in film and you guys are my sanity, woohoo!
I love Morrell mushrooms. We have a batch of black chantrell that show up every year at our home in the Georgia mountains. I dry them for soup. Haven't seen any Morrells yet. Enjoy your videos. 😂
Thank you so much!! Any mushroom you can harvest and eat from your back yard is a good one! Drying them for soup is a great idea!! It’s still a bit early for Morrells yet but the season is starting early in BC this year.
❤
🙏
Every body is going to eat good.what type of fish does the cannery process.❤😊
You must have a top-notch camera, as am amazed at the clarity of your videos. Your editing is excellent too.
Am just wondering, in future videos, about some of the guests at the lodge. I realize that some guests may wish to remain 'anonymous', nonetheless, some of your guests may wish to divulge their nantionality, place of abode, background, employment and/or commercial or business background and reasons in coming to the lodge. That aspect would be interesting.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the idea. I will keep it in mind. Thank you for the comment.
I use a GoPro 11 but I just purchased the iPhone 15 and believe it or not, that’s where most of my footage is coming from now. It’s an amazing camera.
Love your videos Jenny!
Just wondering what you are using for your cameras? The video is so nice and crisp and clear.
Cheers from Vancouver!
Thanks for watching! Currently I am using a GoPro 11, DJI mini 3 drone and my iPhone 15. I shoot in 4K for the extra crispness. I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos!
I think I've caught up on videos. Time for you to get to work!
At this very moment I’m editing! Haha
Voiceover will happen tomorrow so definitely in the next day or 2 😅 stop distracting me 😜
I was born in Vancouver.
I grew up in Sechelt.
Absolutely cannot wait till you put out a new video.
I just have one question when you enter Vancouver and Merritt all you did was eat. And you’re still skinny your boyfriend trying to fatten
Haha I just love good food!! I seem to be able to work it off without worrying about gaining weight. My boyfriend is happy with me either way.
You had me at chironomids! What rec site were you at? We are on the road in the Cariboo next week.
Nice WP! Have a great time! We were at Bog lake Rec site along the Chasm road.
Hi jenny! Love your videos. I am from 100 mile area and was wondering what lake u guys were camping at. Looks newly renovated. Was it bog lk or hammer lk by chance? Weve been having a hard time finding new spaces to camp the last few years as everything is always full!
Hi! You guessed correctly it was Bog lake rec site. Really nice spot! I hope you make it up there this summer!
yes hello there went online to good hope website and it said that good hope was permanently closed?
Hi Chris! Yes the cannery and the sport fishing lodge is closed permanently and the lodge is now a private home that is run like a wilderness resort. Thanks for watching!
your very welcome
Just finished watching... Really like your broth recipe! Great scenery too!
Thank you so much! The soup turned out really nice!! Thanks for watching!
Thank You!!
Thank YOU!
