I've been watching couple of years...longer? (at least three vehicles ago) -- first-time comment: I enjoy your chill videos...help me relax. The addition of your pup (and "guest appearances" by your girlfriend) add to the adventure. Thank you.
oh my gosh, Kaya is getting so big, but still adorable. You are doing great with her. Love you videos and that you explore OR and WA. I hope the move went well for you and Tessa.
Great video Johnathan. I live on Vancouver Island and know exactly what you were experiencing views and scenery wise on Orcas Island. If you haven't already made the trek, Vancouver Island is epic on every level. Tons of wilderness to explore, wild spaces and views on views. Could be a few weeks worth of videos.
😂 I couldn't help but laugh out loud and feel Kaya was giving off upset girlfriend vibes when she moved to the corner of the bed! She was like, dont talk to me. Maybe she didn't appreciate not going on the paddle ride. 😉 BTW, you're a thoughtful and caring doggy dad. Beautiful location that you're in and this video has been enjoyable! Thanks. 😊
You know what’s funny? You’re stoked about arriving on Orcas; Being on an island for the first time. But Anacortes is on Fidalgo Island. You were in an island before you left for the island 😂
Thanks for another great video, Jonathan. Made me happy to see these ferries again. I took one of them in 2001 and 2008 on trips to Whidby Island and I can tell that they haven't changed a lot. If at all. Makes me want to come back.
Yeah I was just there in May in my RV stayed in the same campsite for three nights and then I went to Lopez and then San Juan, what a beautiful place and I had a great time there on the islands. After that I went over to Vancouver Island and spent four days at Tofino which is on the west side of the island.
I've lived all my life in Washington (66 yrs) & have never gone to the islands. Have wanted to go Orcas island. Hopefully this summer. I also have wanted to go camping at Stehekin at Lake Chelan. Loved that episode.
I had a 3500 lb camper on my 92 F350. I always ran at 70 psi just to have a better ride. 80 makes for a rough ride. My camper was an 11.5 foot Alpenlite.
Really enjoyed watching you take this trip! Inspiring me to drive north and check out some of those islands....thanks for taking us along on this adventure!
Jonathan! This was such a beautiful trip. Peuget Sound Islands are beautiful. Kaya is doing sooo well. That water just looked like butter out there when you were paddling. I wondered how good the fishing was. The water is sooo clear but with all of the lake vegetation, you could get your hooks caught alot. Just a beautiful epic, video. Thanks so much❤ Jonathan!
I got stuck in the same propane truck fire closure. His wheel well sparked causing the tanks to explode. Took me an hour at 11-1130 time frame to get out of portland! Glad you made it out! 😊😂 Also,I found if you open windows even on a super hot day where the cars sit it's like a wind tunnel so the car stays very cool. My dog has never got hot when we take the ferries
Orcas is beautiful. My husband's family used to own property out there and they would occasionally ask him to go out to do some workon the property. He'd take me when my schedule allowed and we'd stay a night or two. We used to take the ferry once or twice a month when we lived in Bremerton, and I miss the trip. There is just something a little bit magical about traversing the Puget Sound on a ferry. The food is usually pretty good when you can catch the cafeteria open. If you ever want to go to Alaska, there is a ferry from Bellingham to Alaska that I've heard good things about, it's a three? day trip up. I've seen it leave the terminal but was never able to find the time to take the journey. I've heard that in the summer months you can pitch a tent and sleep out on one of the decks.
I loved this video. Kaya is getting so big and really learning her commands. She also listens really well. Better than my 6 yr old dog. 😂😂😂. My son in law lives at Woolley Hollow in Washington state. I’ve only been there twice and it’s beautiful. Thank you and see you next week. Take care
We took our family to Anacortes an to Orcas about 5-6 years ago. It was a great trip. One weird thing was a member of the crew was very rude to us and my daughter was very upset about it. Also, another ferry employee was very nice to us and very helpful so it isn’t everyone that is disgruntled and unhappy.
❤❤Love Puget sound and the whole area. Just beautiful we don't have no views like that here in Kansas. She was such a a good puppy and as always my granddaughter loves puppy and always watches with me. Safe travels.❤❤
Orcas Island is beautiful. I've only been once, but there were a ton of beautiful hikes, caves, and waterfalls that we explored. Also, my friend had mentioned something about the trees with the bright red bark only being native to the PNW. Pacific Madrone, and they were all over the island. I recall a chill brewery we had a few beers at, and we also visited where her brother worked at Camp Orkila. I didn't do well on the ferry there, but on our way back, it wasn't so bad after having a few ciders at the cider place waiting to board the ferry.
U can increase your fuel mileage! What year is your Ford? 2007- 2011 diesel has issues but 6.0 and 6.7 are great engines and u can get great mpg. 1.Put air box were the air filter is currently. 2. 6.0 ford u should get 17 mpg with camper if u tune it right. 3. 6.7 can get 16 to 20 mpg w/ camper Get a good diesel guy out of state to tune it.
We had a dog with the same name as yours. This is been many many years ago that she passed. I’m excited that you named your dog kiya as well. I love your adventures.
I love orcas island! It was wonderful watching this video! If you get a chance you should read the book The Barefoot Bandit, it’s a true story about a young teenager that used to cause ruckus all around orcas and he even taught himself how to fly a plane and stole it. It’s actually a great read!
Now you're talking my language -- Washington State Ferries. I'm on Bainbridge Island. This landscape, those frogs, and the boats are familiar. None of the boat galley food (while servicable) is anything to write home about, unless you want to complain about the cost. At least they frequently have three beers on tap, if the galley is open (WSF is understaffed), and you'll pay more than at the ballpark. Oh well, it's a sweet ride. You should tell the folks how much you have to pay to get your truck on the ferry.
I love a ferry boat ride. A new van camper is just starting a channel. He's in eastern Canada and its a young guy's perspective. His name is Damon Wilcox.
BC ferries are frustrating sometimes I haven't personally had that many issues with them and my child is obsessed. Apparently he's going to change everything about BC ferries when he becomes a captain. Lol. And then you can board anytime free and you can go ahead of the line 😂
@@JonathanYentch I don’t know if you know who the TH-camr is chrome who lives in Canada you guys should do a Collab video it would be cool to see you guys doing some camping together if you go to Canada 🇨🇦 or Maverick on TH-cam
you came up to our neck of the woods. We are actually in Bellingham but, have taken that ferry many times to Orcas and San Juan. If you decide to head up to Canada this year and want a spot to moochdock, let me know. I have enought room for your rig in Bellingham and a spot in Birch Bay, just about 10 miles from the border crossing.
That was a very good looking pizza, for out there in Washington!!🍕🍕I thought that Kaya did pretty very well throughout the trip to the island, which is magnificent! There's so much beauty in Washington, for sure!🏞🏕⛰⛰I look forward to more adventures! You meant to drive out like that, right?!🤣🤣Alright take care!🤗🌄🐶☕
The puppy looks to be much calmer this trip. Safe travels!
One of your best vlogs in a while. The pup is an incredible addition to your channel. Great music choices. Keep it up.
She's all grown up!! Love her ears!❤
Your pup is doing really well for her age and a lot of travel. You have obviously been training her well. Lovely spot for camping etc. awesome
I am really impressed with the training you have done with Kaya. For a young dog her training is impressive. We enjoy your videos

Epic video as always. Always a nice break from the life of an accountant when I watch your videos. Thanks!
Another great show starring Kaya!
Enjoyed your video very much! Beautiful scenery and sweet Kia loved the trip I’m sure!❤
😂 I couldn't help but laugh out loud and feel Kaya was giving off upset girlfriend vibes when she moved to the corner of the bed! She was like, dont talk to me. Maybe she didn't appreciate not going on the paddle ride. 😉 BTW, you're a thoughtful and caring doggy dad. Beautiful location that you're in and this video has been enjoyable! Thanks. 😊
I thought she was looking at him like "Hope you drown on that paddle board...." 🤨

Jonathan this was a fantastic video!! This is exactly what I like to see on your channel. Great job!! Cheers! ~M
Beautiful scenery. Don't leave the camper unlevel for long. It can damage your refrigerator (absorption) if it is on.
Been to Orcas Island, San Juan Island is definitely worth seeing. The ferry ride and exploring the islands, seeing Orcas is great.
Thank you for taking us along on this amazing adventure. absolutely spectacular 🐾
Yes we have been blessed.
What a gorgeous place! Thank you for taking us to such beautiful places. You are a champ!

I live not too far from orcas island. I’m on Camano island and it’s beautiful out here. If you can handle the 5+solid months of gray.
Look into the M18 Milwaukee tire air inflator it is great airs up my 20s and tractor tires I keep it in my tool box on the truck
Really great photography, editing, and music. Nice balance of Kaya and other scenes.
I had a 3500 lb camper on my 92 F350. I always ran at 70 psi just to have a better ride. 80 makes for a rough ride. My camper was an 11.5 foot Alpenlite.
Love Love the San Juan’s, Orcas is beautiful with great hiking.
Oh that's so nice ! I'm going to Orca's this summer with my truck camper and can't wait ! Thanks for giving me a little taste !
Love orcas!!! You need to check out the skatepark there. It’s huge!
Spectacular views. Kaya is so cute, aww that face she was missing you when you came back from kayaking.

Nice trip and lots of patience dealing with other people that want their cut every step of the way.
Relaxing vid was enjoyable. Kiya is transitioning into a more relaxed and obedient "young lady" 🐶.
I got stuck in the same propane truck fire closure. His wheel well sparked causing the tanks to explode. Took me an hour at 11-1130 time frame to get out of portland! Glad you made it out! 😊😂
Also,I found if you open windows even on a super hot day where the cars sit it's like a wind tunnel so the car stays very cool. My dog has never got hot when we take the ferries
What a SWEET dog you have
Ask the dog 🐶 to marry you freak
Kaya is so well behaved. Great video Jonathan

Nice trip with beautiful scenery. May God bless you.
It's gorgeous 😍 I wanna visit the Pacific Northwest 🌲

This is a great trip. Ive done it w a camper too. Got as far as Alberta

Thanks for taking us all along on this fun exciting journey 👍
PS- when you drove away with stairs down 😆💕👍I'd have done same thing
Did it on purpose fool
I haven't been watching for a while I didn't see the Ford! Glad you're doing diesel now.
Diesel used to be cheap back in the day but holy cow the last few years. Van island BC
"wait, you're leaving your camera !" haha, smart diggity dog. She is so cute.
We had a dog with the same name as yours. This is been many many years ago that she passed. I’m excited that you named your dog kiya as well. I love your adventures.
Also, I laughed really loudly when you commented about falling in before spilling your beer. 😂
I fully expected Jonathan to take a dip! Lol😂
Orcas Island has Camp Orkila where generations of YMCA campers have spent a week camping. My kids, my grandkids.
Just wanted to say I've been subscribed for years now and u kick ass Jonathan, big props from CVHS! :P love the set up keep at it bro
Go to truck stops to air up your tires. Trucks run their tires around 100 psi and they usually have higher pressure air
I love orcas island! It was wonderful watching this video! If you get a chance you should read the book The Barefoot Bandit, it’s a true story about a young teenager that used to cause ruckus all around orcas and he even taught himself how to fly a plane and stole it. It’s actually a great read!
Washington park in Anacortes has some spectacular views and has camping spots.

Oops, I spoke too soon -- you did tell them. Glad it wasn't too painful.
I love a ferry boat ride. A new van camper is just starting a channel. He's in eastern Canada and its a young guy's perspective. His name is Damon Wilcox.
Bless your heart they are a joy hang in there it will get better ❤ "I pray"🙏
Very nice! I have friends on Orcas Island. Beautiful area!
Please go and check out Vancouver Island you'll love it and if you can maybe even Haida Gwaii islands. Breath taking.
I would recommend Denman Island, and Hornby. Quadra is beautiful too.
BC ferries are frustrating sometimes I haven't personally had that many issues with them and my child is obsessed. Apparently he's going to change everything about BC ferries when he becomes a captain. Lol. And then you can board anytime free and you can go ahead of the line 😂
I’ve never found a gas station air pump with enough pressure to air up my truck tires. So frustrating and rarely find one that’s not out of order
I’m glad to see you’ve claimed your door, less chance of door dashing 😊
Hi Jonathan, love your posts!!!
That view looks just like the view from Cadillac Mountain in Bar Harbor Maine!! (Minus the volcanic peaks 😊)
Morning buddy!! Come over to Redmond and lets go camp, I have sweet spots!
I’ll have to hit you up next time I’m heading down that way!
@JonathanYentch sounds good buddy. 👍 I have some pretty sweet creek side spots!
@@JonathanYentch I don’t know if you know who the TH-camr is chrome who lives in Canada you guys should do a Collab video it would be cool to see you guys doing some camping together if you go to Canada 🇨🇦 or Maverick on TH-cam
Oh my gosh, how beautiful!
Let's Go....!! Safe travels 🥾
✌️🍻
This was fun. Thank you.

Luv yur vids Jonathan! Keep up the good work.
oh hai, I was going to say I was on the other side of that Ferry, in Sidney BC. but I guess it doesn't even run here anymore?
Try the Sunshine Coast route in BC…fantastic scenery.
I hardly ever drink he said many months ago, yet every trip he drinks 😂. JS. Great video and Kaya is so full of energy ❤
Great vid Jonny!
Great video as always Jonathan 👌 👍 👏
Love your camping vlogs❤
That was a very good looking pizza, for out there in Washington!!🍕🍕I thought that Kaya did pretty very well throughout the trip to the island, which is magnificent! There's so much beauty in Washington, for sure!🏞🏕⛰⛰I look forward to more adventures! You meant to drive out like that, right?!🤣🤣Alright take care!🤗🌄🐶☕
With that high of a PSI, doesn't that make things earthquake more?
They have automatic air pumps. Go for the hike.
Great video, Jonathan! BTW when does your video come on each week?
Go to Bella Coola, BC. Via ferry, I want to go via Hwy 20 but they built it at 18% so I am going to do it.
You should travel to Wisconsin and do the ferry across Lake MI into the state of MI!
That’s a good baby dog
YOU SHOULD INVEST ON A MILWAUKEE M18 PORTABLE AIR COMPRESSOR
Cool video !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great video again. love that you love your dog kia. dogs are so great. i have 2 black labs sisters 8 year old. called zelle and dame.
Awesome video
Need to know the temp gauge product you use to keep an eye on the pup!
Beautiful island. Kaya looked like she enjoys the woods. Are there any bears on Orcas Island?
You are a steward of excellence!!!!!!!!!!
Lmk if you come down to the Silverdale area in Washington. I’d love to meet up!
Once the laziness goes away your gonna start seeing the channel grow more and more pa 👌🏽
Wow Kaya is getting to be a big girl. Another fun adventure.
31:54 wow that was the look of guilt, I was expecting something bad had happened!
