My daughter and I were this close. After I deployed the 3rd time and came home she hated me. Things were never the same. I'm so happy to see this video it reminds me of good times!
Thank you honestly! You’re right kids these days need to get out and try something, anything outdoors. I remember when my kids were afraid of the dark and now they prefer the woods than their own bed.. Eric I suppose that’s how we grew up and man I love seeing it translate to our children. Thanks buddy for your support 🍻
Thanks for this! I was desperately trying to figure out how to use a tarp for a truck bed cover and the internet was sold on showing me building an entire box camper. This will be enough of a challenge for my skill level.
Its so refreshing to see father daughter trip and camping. So glad you are making your daughter strong and she takes part in camping. How do you guys manage mosquitoes and ticks? I always wanted to go camping but watching all camping shows i realise i need loo (woken need them)and mosquitoes i can not handle. But love your videos
Thank you very much that means a lot to us! As far as the bugs go, we use bug spray with Deet in it (spray everything clothes and skin) and a device called a Thermacell to keep the mosquitoes away. We usually don’t have a problem with ticks unless we’re in tall grass or weeds. Not sure where you are located but winter weather camping is an option here. Not many bugs in the winter. Hope that helps some, thanks again and cheers!
Lol I think we’re all a bit spoiled, no judgment here. We started out camping in our backyard 😐. Sounds like fun until the neighbors wake you up at 5 am to go to work..
There's a zillion ways to start a fire. The best way I've ever learned, is to just lay out your wood {don't bother about paper, and tinder, and kindling, and all that stuff). Just lay out your fire (logs, boards, etc), spray it with some WD-40, and light it. That's it. Simple, and quick.
That bird was a woop-a-will their plentiful here in the S.E, those fire flys are called lightning bugs and those little tomatoes are called tommie toes.
That little bird liked to keep us up half the night! We’ve had an encounter on another trip but I was able to scare it off but this guy was relentless lol. Tommie toes, haven’t heard that one yet but I’m gonna use it! Cheers buddy 🍻
Don't go shootin' the whippoorwills. Legend says that they will summon the Whippoorwill Queen who's chirp is so powerful you'll hear it no matter where you go.
God bless American we can’t have that! It was a trip of firsts.. First time we made tacos camping. First time dehydrating spaghetti. First time I’ve cussed out a small bird.. All in all a great weekend 😁
Hello my friend! I really appreciate the fact that you go out with your daughter in nature, and so she can learn great things from you, by the power of example. Very nice waterfall and very comforting bath there, I know that. I really enjoyed your trip. Greetings from Romania and to your daughter, who is very pretty but also strong.🤗 Have a nice day! 💖
Thank you for your kind thoughts 😊 we cherish these trips and our time together! I couldn’t be more proud of this young lady. The waterfall was a pleasant surprise to get away from the heat of the summer! Thanks again good friend. The world could use more of your positivity 🍻
Thanks buddy, I’m sure you could figure something out. Van tarp camping would be a cool trip and you’d have AC if needed lol. Take care and say hi to the family for us.
Nice set up with the tarp. Beats spending hundreds of dollars on a tent specifically built for your truck. It is always a pleasure to find your very own private waterhole with nobody around. Another great adventure and always remember to follow your nose!🍁🦫
Thanks buddy! You’re right those pop up deals are expensive. Not to mention I’d worry about me or the kids falling out at night lol. Hope all is well, take care 😊
Yes sir! We’re doing our first father son trip this weekend. Girls are going to the beach and we’re heading to the mountains lol. Hope all is well Mike.
You got that right! Boogie was hoarding them like they were cake lol First time eating wild berries, pretty sure she’d a fought a bear for them. Fortunately it didn’t come to that, but Bud, it’s so much better in the wild right? I’m not really a forager so all insight is much appreciated 😊 Thanks buddy!
Thanks buddy! No I’ve been pretty fortunate with trees, but I suppose it could be done using poles. Maybe I’ll give it a try the next time we truck camp. I’m sure there’s a way lol!
Hello Buddy. Outstanding video. That was a beautiful swimming hole. Where were you close to? Poor Boogie got bee stung. I hope you kissed for her. Ha ha.... That spaghetti looked pretty darn good. That's a good idea. What kind of dehydrator do you use? By the way, you guys barely got out of Jellystone before the flood hit. That was providence. Well take guys and I'll see you all in the next one. Your friend in Oregon.👍
Well thank you our friend 😊 We were in Pisgah National Forest. It’s crazy we camped all winter not a mile from the falls and never went down there lol. Boogie was a trooper she was actually filming me when the bee got her and she finished the scene 💪 The dehydrator is a Chefman, and we’ll definitely be using that more this summer. Got the idea from @matthewposa on YT. Man you’re right about Yellowstone… Made it out by the skin of our teeth 😬 Seems it may be a while before the parks back fully open. Thanks again buddy and take care from S.C.
I’ve been looking for the exact one to give the link but have been having a hard time finding it, but I think it’s was like 10’ x 12”. The truck has a 6’ bed so that seems close.
I am on the fence about having kids but these damn family camping youtube channels are so refreshing.

Best classroom for any kid. Nice work.

That waterfall was 💯. Elf likes spaghetti for breakfast also. 🍝
Don’t forget the maple syrup lol

Very impressive camping and cooking video. Very good video presentation and thank you for sharing your wonderful camping adventure my friend 👍✨😃
Absolutely buddy 😊 we love these trips! Take care and cheers🍻

@@laffitteoutdoors I'm in uk. So we dont have all that. City girl so bit spoilt. 😂😂😂

You are a good man and father from what i see,God bless you both.
Thank you very much my friend that means a lot to us :) take care and God bless you as well!
Boogie and her ASMR 🤣
We’ve created a monster 😂
Boogie the lumberjack and those tacos looked yum!! Good job guys 👍👍
Thanks buddy, she’s a beast lol 💪 The tacos while simple, definitely hit the spot. Hope all is good out west! Cheers 🍻
Great camp and video. Thank you for sharing and wishing you a lovely upcoming weekend
Thank you for the support 😊 hope all is well and happy Friday good friend!

That sounds great Rusty. We’ll have to give it a try. It’s fun playing with different ideas. Always fun making a fire lol. Take care buddy.

The kids and I loved the video. I wonder if we could do a similar tarp setup with our van. Thanks for sharing the trip!
Thanks buddy, I’m sure you could figure something out. Van tarp camping would be a cool trip and you’d have AC if needed lol. Take care and say hi to the family for us.
If you have a small fan it is way better than blowing. 😂😂
Yeah I have asthma so open to suggestions lol .

Yes sir, teach your children well.

I taste's sweeter because you picked it when it was ripe. The ones in the store are picked before they are ripe so they will last longer.

Love the simplicity of the tarp tent. Have you ever rigged it in an area where you didn’t have any trees to run the line?
Thanks buddy! No I’ve been pretty fortunate with trees, but I suppose it could be done using poles. Maybe I’ll give it a try the next time we truck camp. I’m sure there’s a way lol!
The front tie to the bumper and the rear corner you could use a painters pole or some adjustable pole then stake to the ground. No trees needed
@@mikeferretti7422 I hadn’t thought about paint poles. That’s a great idea. I’d considered hiking poles on the tailgate in a pinch. Thanks!

SS from India 🇮🇳
Thank you good friend! This was a special trip 😊 Take care in India and thanks for keeping up with us!
What dims on that tarp? 20x20’? Great job on the vid! Thanks.
I’ve been looking for the exact one to give the link but have been having a hard time finding it, but I think it’s was like 10’ x 12”. The truck has a 6’ bed so that seems close.
The brand is Armour, pretty cost efficient brand I think.
If it rains how do you keep the water out of the truck bed when using the tarp?
Depends on the amount of rain lol but generally yes it does.
