You are doing a great job of showing the realities of camping: bugs and rain are often big parts of it. Yet, you both maintain good attitudes. Thanks for keeping it real.
Hey everyone from Collierville Tennessee ever since I found on live TH-cam video I’ve been intrigued by the lifestyle that Cody and Kelli live in a tent and how they manage their life they are so detailed and they have fun with each other and they’re so spontaneous and to watch Kelli cook is just so much fun and you can almost smell the food that she is preparing for her Cody. I look forward to seeing these videos every time they are uploaded, I am a retired lady and my husband and I have been camping for over40 years since our children were young and I enjoy watching adventures of other people camping in the dome life is so much fun to watch and my prayer is that God will provide for Cody and Callie keep them safe and warm and cool and direct their past and the way that they should go and open doors to new adventures
I was born and raised in Michigan and every summer we vacationed for a week somewhere in Northern Michigan. I have been to pictured rocks and we took the boat tour but it was late 50's early 60's I really don't remember much. We were making our way up there in 2018 but had RV trouble in Kinross so that shot the rest of our vacation. Would still like to make it up there again but it's a long way (we live in Texas) and we're getting old!
As soon as I saw the thumbnail for this video, I smiled really big and said yay! I'm really happy you guys enjoyed seeing pictured rocks! Spending time in the U.P Is one of the reasons I've fallen in love with Michigan! Also, Cody, I must say your videography is truly beautiful! The way your videos flow is absolutely inspiring. It's very noticeable, from my perspective, that you truly do enjoy capturing your videos. For me personally, I think that's also one of the things that makes your videos so captivating. Your passion speaks loudly within your creativity. :) Thanks for sharing how beautiful Michigan is!
Wow! This was a great vlog. Thanks for showing us the beautiful pictured rocks shoreline. I don't know if I will ever get there so it's so great to see it through your lens. The sound of the birds is so wonderful and I love that it is never snowing in your vlogs! A nice break from North Idaho dark winter.
So glad you got to take the boat tour. My dad was from the UP and we vacation there every few years. We went to Pictured Rocks three times and never got to take the boat because of weather. We did do the trails each time and that was fun, but I want to try to get back there and give the boat tour one more chance to work with me.
I binged your Michigan videos today, and am so happy you made it here and seem to be loving it! We just missed you in the U.P. over the 4th! I hope you can make it to Copper Harbor, my absolute favorite - but truth be told yes those flies are monsters so I don't blame you if you come back in the fall. The U.P. is beautiful when the colors change. If you hit Marquet, stop at Veladrome coffee, and The Delft for a great meal! Enjoy!
picture rocks, WOW! That restaurant looked so good. You may be dealing with the bugs, but here in NWA we have had days and days of HOT. DRY weather. So enjoy the nice temps!
I loved that boat tour and it was such a great place to see. Michigan has a lot of beautiful waterfalls too in the UP. Just alot of bugs 😣😐💯💕👣 great video you guys.
My wife and I were in Munising for the 4th as well. We were going to do the boat cruise too but decided to skip it because of the rain. Ended up spending the day in Marquette.
You guys are consistently producing such refined and interesting content. I mean every video is awesome- you guys are living the dream life 😎 such high spirits even with bugs and hail/rain etc… so inspiring. I don’t understand how you guys don’t yet have millions of subscribers? Thanks so much for the content and tips I can’t wait to do what you do
Nice filmmaking. Yer up in familiar places to me. I've snorkeled in those caves under Miners Castle. Also I was with 3 other couples of relatives and rented a pontoon on a foggy day at Pictured Rocks, it seemed extra beautiful and plenty of clearing to see the colors you saw. Glad you're up here.
All these years we have never done pictured rocks tour! We will definitely do that next time up in the UP! Love watching your adventures!! Munising is a cute little town! Love you guys!
That boat tour showed some absolutely stunning views....and that tree growing balanced on the rocks?!? Nature will never cease to amaze me! I love that the little coffee shop showcased local art. Thanks for taking us along. -Hedy
What a fun day! Great scenery and yes, that campground looked heavenly. So serene. When I saw that creme brulee (SP?), I thought oh my gosh that's got to be so good. Kelley, your face when you tasted it confirmed. 😁
I don’t know if someone has already suggested it, and I haven’t even tried it myself, but I’m thinking that when I head out west, I’m going to get myself some mesh clothing for the bugs. This decision is entirely because of watching your video. Thank you very much.
Don’t ya just LOVE where I get to live? A word of caution to anyone who might be considering to kayak along Pictured Rocks, it is strongly advised to only use a good quality sea kayak, not the small ones. Use one the outfitters that are located around Munising Bay. Lake Superior can stir up major weather and waves in a very short time, followed then by tragedy :(
Really enjoying watching this trip. Try buying a box fan at walmart, 22.00, to help with the bugs if you get caught in them again at the very least it might make cooking easier. They don't use to much energy. I also use smaller USB fans for just sitting around and it keeps the mosquitos away. Good Luck✌🏼
Wow! Pumping out the uploads this week! I love the fact you came to my homestate and seen how close you were when I seen the Manistee National Park sign. Like literally 5-6 miles away. I would of prolly fanned out on ya and embarrassed you had I seen ya tho, lol
Hi there I am fairly new to your channel. I usually don't talk much. But you are in my neck of the woods now. If I didn't have the flu my husband n I would have loved to take you to dinner.i hope your enjoying your stay while your here. God bless
Speaking of kayaking, when you get to visiting Wisconsin check out Turtle-Flambeau Flowage. We put in at Murray’s Landing and camped on one of the islands last summer.
As you were going along on the waterva few ripe ties I got a chill run down my back I guess I thought it was cold haha scenery is gorgeous how green the water is and the rock formation is mother nature in here self Happy 4th
It was a pleasure to meet you at Tracy's. What a nice couple you are. Your videos are fantastic. Who does the music? I look forward to seeing more of your travels.
dont forget to go to wagner falls, which is just south of Munising, but by the time you see this, you are probably gone from the area. Also, Tipi Kipi is awesome!
Ricketts Glen in Pennsylvania is a great place to see waterfalls...I believe there's like 27 or more waterfalls...have to hike to see them and u can camp there
I've wanted to hike the Pictured Rocks trail since watching Dan Beck's backpacking trip. It would be an awesome adventure. I love how you both keep your camping trips real having to survive the weather elements, the flying insects and other issues that go awry during camping trips. Many of us avid outdoors people have experienced the gamut and it's not always pleasant. However, a great attitude like you guys maintain always makes the overall experience enjoyable...and you learn from it to make future adventures better.
I think I am a little jealous, you guys! Rainy, pants, long sleeves, everything wet! Still so very HOT and so very DRY here in Tx😩. I have read about Pictured Rocks in the National Parks Mag and now have seen, thanks to y'all! Another beautiful place! Is that lake water cold? It is so nice and clear! Would love to just jump on in! Thanks for the tag-along! Safe travels till next time🏊🍕☕🍛🚄🍌🌨🌞!
So glad you made it to pictured rocks! Being kayakers...it's really sucks you didn't get to kayak it! Getting into the coves and such is good stuff! Safe travels ✌️
Hey Cody I see you like to fish/ kayak fish and I have bait that me and my buddies use all the time as we have caught LM Bass, SM Bass, pickeral, panfish, trout and last week one of are guys caught a 25" northern pike and had a 36" plus and and broke off. We fish them in the river, lakes and streams. It's the 1/4oz white Joe's Fly. I think it's actually called a White MIller. Have safe travels.
You are doing Michigan justice.. Great videos of the UP…. If your going to Wisconsin. Camp at the very tip in Red Cliff. Try the Leinenkugel Beer. Very good.
Great trip, great content every time. You guys are a pleasure to watch , it's so peaceful to watch you guys out on your journey. Cody you should tie a Texas Rig and fish with plastic worms on your line, also you should try a top water lure, like a whopper plopper , you will catch more bass and possibly bigger fish. Thanks again for taking us all along on your adventures.
Peaceful beautiful campsite ! I would love to camp there. Kellie & Cody you are managing the challenges very well. I live in Florida and my husband refuses to camp here in the summer, Too many bugs and unbearable heat. We still haven't camped ( did years ago especially my husband ).We will hopefully camp in late Fall.. Thinking of camping in Anastasia State Park. The boat tour was the way to go. The dessert looked heavenly .
The beautiful places you visit are amazing. I do hope to visit some of them one day. Oh! There’s just nothin better than a bacon and egg sandwich. I also like southern country ham and egg sandwiches. :-)
Loved that area too!! We did the same tour and the voice of the captain on the boat was the same. Didn't you love the "Cathedral"? We were lucky enough for good weather to do a nice hike to a light house on the shoreline of Pictured Rocks toward the East side....hope that's in the cards for your next vlog. Thanks for letting us relive this thru your lens!
LOL Cody you still haven't gotten yourself a nail clipper. Ugh only if you knew how nice of a cut you get near the knot. Kellie next time your at a doller store pick him up one pleaseeeeeee. LOL
Loving your videos. Grew up in Wisconsin, now live in Minnesota and have traveled and camped in the UP as well as lower Michigan. Re the bugs, there was probably a good reason my old GS camp located near Dagget, MI never sent the rugged, advanced wilderness trips out until Mid-July early August! I hope you are able to take in the Porcupine Mountains and Lake of the Clouds, Isle Royale, and the MN North Shore. If you make it to the North Shore, the Nanaboujou Lodge is worth a stop to see the dining room.
I love seeing you guys in the UP! If you get back east in time the OverlandExpo East is in Virginia on October 7th 8th and 9th! Would be great to see you guys there.
If you guys are heading towards the east coast you should stop and see scripture rocks in Brookville Pennsylvania a gentleman hand chiseled Bible scripture into 70 or 80 big rocks... you can look it up..then your only 30 minutes from Punxsutawney pa where punxsy phil is...lots of places to camp and disperse camp in cooks Forrest pa...I'd love to meet u guys...I'm in that area...no bugs
WOW...this is on my bucket list!!! Sorry that ya'll did not get great light to do this. That pontoon rental option sounds good for photographing. Just curious, the food looks good, but were folks friendly???
If you’re headed up to the Keweenaw peninsula I know plenty of places to see and things to do there. Let me know if you’re headed there, you could spend weeks there exploring.
I've been to your website I've asked her three times how can I find your cookbook or is that available anymore is there anybody who would reply to me have a great day
You are doing a great job of showing the realities of camping: bugs and rain are often big parts of it. Yet, you both maintain good attitudes. Thanks for keeping it real.

I grew up in Munising. I try to get my family up there every summer. Such a beautiful area
Wow! This was a great vlog. Thanks for showing us the beautiful pictured rocks shoreline. I don't know if I will ever get there so it's so great to see it through your lens.
The sound of the birds is so wonderful and I love that it is never snowing in your vlogs! A nice break from North Idaho dark winter.
That lake was just crying out for you on your kayaks fly fishing, another great vlog Guys , thank you
So glad you got to take the boat tour. My dad was from the UP and we vacation there every few years. We went to Pictured Rocks three times and never got to take the boat because of weather.

Beautiful water,rocks and rain ✨
Yeah I wouldn’t want to leave that spot either. Beautiful.
Me and my chick were there that same day we took a later cruise and watched the fireworks from across the harbor in the high school parking lot..
I binged your Michigan videos today, and am so happy you made it here and seem to be loving it! We just missed you in the U.P. over the 4th!

picture rocks, WOW! That restaurant looked so good. You may be dealing with the bugs, but here in NWA we have had days and days of HOT. DRY weather. So enjoy the nice temps!
So true about reservations. I have that problem too of not knowing where to make a longer reservation and where to just have an overnight stop.
I loved that boat tour and it was such a great place to see. Michigan has a lot of beautiful waterfalls too in the UP. Just alot of bugs 😣😐💯💕👣 great video you guys.
You two are the best! Thank you for sharing your amazing life adventures ❣️
My wife and I were in Munising for the 4th as well. We were going to do the boat cruise too but decided to skip it because of the rain. Ended up spending the day in Marquette.
❤loved the boat ride. That campsite was really nice too.

That was very cool, I think you really would have loved that with your kayaks!!!! Very cool!
Love the video! Love Kelly’s smile. You two are such a great team in your adventures. Thanks so much.
So envious of you and the life you live. Hope to mimic it even minutely on my vacations

So glad you made it to Pictured Rocks. I bet Cody really liked the rock formations. I agree with Amy. You’re doing a great job.
I don’t know if someone has already suggested it, and I haven’t even tried it myself, but I’m thinking that when I head out west, I’m going to get myself some mesh clothing for the bugs. This decision is entirely because of watching your video. Thank you very much.

I really enjoy your videos. We have a log cabin in the U.P., but rarely go up in the summer. We use it in the fall, winter and spring.
👍👍👍👍👍
Back when I tent camped. I used seam sealer and my tents never leaked. Just a suggestion
Love your trip we are headed there in September, keep up the good work

Are you guys going to go up the North Shore in Minnesota towards the Canadian border?
✌️👍🙏❤️
What is that baitbox that you were using?
Hi my name is Michelle where can I order your cookbook
I've been to your website I've asked her three times how can I find your cookbook or is that available anymore is there anybody who would reply to me have a great day
Do you have a pee toilet in your Car?
