    You Slim are an amazing story teller and video creator.
    So few TH-cam creators slow down enough to really immerse the viewers into the essence of the place.
    Love the time lapse of tide & beach fog.
    Thank you, as always, for allowing me to travel with you via video. It soothes this disabled, housebound, nature lovers soul. 🍁🇨🇦 🕊

    A rainy day in a trailer is a perfect day to take a nap. The sound of the rain hitting the roof of the trailer lulls me to sleep. The ultimate white noise.
    Also, loved the go back to Alberta bit, thanks for the laugh.

    Greetings from Alberta. We stayed at Fundy Nat'l Park in May 2017. The campground was closed, but they had 6 or 7 sites open for early season travelers like us. Enjoyed a great seafood meal in Alma. It's short walk from the campground. Get out your sou'wester, slicker and rubber boots and enjoy your east coast explorations. We certainly enjoyed ours.

    Slim, your camera work here, as always, is exceptional!!!
    All the hard work in the red bridge entrance has not gone unnoticed. I see it took 3 or 4 angles to get you driving across the main attraction, the bridge.
    The waterfall was beautiful and at 1/4 speed, that was cool.
    You're really out-doing yourself.
    You're storytelling is exceptional as well. I love camping with you -all without leaving my cabin.

    The rain, fog and mist adds another texture and aura to that area and you captured it well. Who else describes the desired look of their meal as looking like vomit? And you were “sinking fast” near the end of the video, so don’t quit your day job and try to become a singer ;-) loved the video, Slim. Thanks and stay well.
