    I'm so proud of your boy! All grown up and out on his own! I really enjoyed all the ambient sounds in this one: birds, footsteps, and especially the sizzling sausage. I love seeing all the ephemerals too. I can't wait to join you on a van adventure. See you next weekend!

    Holy ASMR, Batman. You werent kidding!
    Next adventure, you should tell the story of the name. I'm sure people would be interested to know why it's called Junior.
    I liked all the pretty flower close ups, but of course, Scooby-Doo was the best part. 😄

    Great one, brother! You knocked it out of the park with that sweet ambient audio. Almost sounded like you had a 360 degree mic. Did you do anything different to it compared to normal? Also, I can't believe that the Mayapples were already budding up there! Spring came early this year. Excited to get on the road with Junior soon! See you this weekend!

    LOVE the bus.....back in the day I had two different bugs. One I painted a big dragon on the back and called it the "Draggin Wagon' and I had a yellow one, that I busted up the front on, and my Grandpa fixed it for 17 bucks. 10 for the Blue fender! LOLOL...LOVE a VW!

      That's awesome 🤣. My grandparents had a bus in the early 80s and I always remembered a hole in the floor near the shifter! You could imagine what was running through my head as I watched the road go buy, through the floor 🤣

    What was the River or Lake at the overlook?
    Growing up we had a Volkswagen Van 😁. Had beds in the back for long trips.

    • @Smokeybeesnatural
      @Smokeybeesnatural  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The overlook was the Ohio River. I was just a half hour north of the KY Speedway. If you had been at the meetup this weekend, you would have seen the van close up! Finally got to meet John Kelley! It's long overdue for our tribes to hang out again!

      Eventually I'll put a propane heater for chilly nights. Currently I have the ability to hook to shore power, so I can run an electric space heater.

      @SaanichtonMinistries I'm not a fan of the ticking fuel pump on the diesel heaters. The van is already set for propane so I'm hoping the propane heater is a quieter option. We'll see. A project in the future!

      @@Smokeybeesnatural I had no idea the diesel heater made noise... I never had one. Just trying to solve the problem of getting heat without the engine running. It i a hard problem I guess.
