    Carolyn,
    Not gonna go into how much I love turning your videos on a Sunday night instead of TV.
    However, I will say I choose authenticity vs. commercial videos trying to get a million views.
    Thanks for letting your truth be told.👯‍♂️🕺👍

    I drove out to Colorado in 1973 with my brother. I was 18 yrs old and my brother was 16..My dad was not too happy about that.Drove up that big mountain Pikes Peak. Camped in tents along the way. Drove from NJ and made it to Indiana late and never paid, just fell asleep and woke early to set off. Nice video

    That storm got everyone, I saw it coming and was shutting up the barn when the hail hit / half dollar size. The sound was so loud on the metal roof that my OTTB freaked out, ran outside, got pelleted with hail ran back in & again ran out from the noise & back in about 5 times until he saw me & the pony hunkered down in the back of the run-in shed. Glad you made it thru it, blessing always & safe travels.

    I started watching you as you headed to Alaska. You have changed over time. You're always so interesting and down to earth.
    I loved the trip through Iowa. I have family there, and I'm fr. MN. I loved your trip through MN back then. Yes, so many people just stay in sm towns like I came from, and can't imagine leaviing. I left on my 18th birthday and went west. In 83 I moved to FL. I love the ocean and scuba diving, but the mountains always pull me back
    I've travled back and forth 6 times. I'm 76 and ready to go again. You being so relaxed out there gives me that sense of joy and love for the open road and nature. I see you walking in bare feet and know you are so grounded. Thank you, Caroline, for just being.

    I went out west last winter and got to see the mountains in New Mexico, Arizona and California. It was magnificent, breathtaking and stunning. I took many photos I will never forget the feeling I got driving through the mountains. That was my first time. I feel everyone should drive through the mountains atleast once in their lifetime.

      I’m finding this more & more too. But I think in my case, when I used a different devise, my account on that defaulted to my second gmail. I found another account I KNOW I was a subscriber, and I wasn’t. I got the ‘ah-hah!’ moment and double checked to see which account I was logged into. Sure enough - wrong account. Over the years I’ve apparently used both accounts for TH-cam. So ya’ll double check what account/email you’re logged into TH-cam. It might not be all TH-cam messing up (but we can blame them anyway😉).

    I gotta take my hat off to your dedication with Sadie and making it work with a Working dog……. We once tried to buy a Red Cloud Kelpie from a Pet Shop……and were refused, as we needed to have 10 Acres or more property to be able to buy her. I’m so glad that Pet store had such dedication to finding the right forever owner for those pups, as we would have soon found out how unsuitable we were to own one!! Ended up getting a Purebred Rhodesian Ridgeback……that was the love of my life for 13 yrs …….Kudos from Western Australia ❤🫡👍🇦🇺🇦🇺

I also worked with a guy who moved to West Virginia just to climb apparently they have some of the best climbing on the east coast, who would have thought.

      Hey there Priscilla! I know what you are saying from my own personal experience. While watching videos is always great, there are some that I can simply listen to. My tinnitus is actually a little better when I am focusing on something... but I often drift off if it's too relaxing... Hope you can enjoy your other senses!! I lost my sense of taste and smell 3 years ago and life has NOT been the same... we really just have to enjoy life as we can and focus on what we still can experience... Blessings!

      @@priscillawrites6685 Mine is transitory so yes I have experienced those times as well... my family doesn't understand but my new neighbor has the same thing, and we often compare things that help or what seems to trigger different aspects of this situation! Doctors don't have any answers, so we are just trying to find things that help a bit.

      Praying this comes across with the love intended. My dad has been in similar situation for past 8 years. He went through all kinds of stages, depression, anger, resentment, grief for the missing senses… we hurt for him and you too. His other senses have kicked in and he is leaning into them to navigate. Being grateful for what he has helps too. His tiny home allows him to still be independent with limits, he enjoys the radio, he can use his iPad to listen to movies and books on tapes and enjoys conversations on a deeper level too. He has always been a very independent person so this has forced him to accept kindness and love from others to do errands for him and bring supplies etc. It took a long time but now he is making lemonade out of the lemons. Did you know you can access books on tapes through a government ran Talking Book Program? It’s a wonderful resource.

    My Sis had a dog that did not like to go poddie out in the rain, she got an umbrella to hold over him so he would go. I loved the photo of her, some early rainy morning, her in her nightgown and rain jacket, getting soaked, and holding an umbrella over him going poddie! Lol! She was so mad at my brother in law for taking that photo

    I totally espouse the "asking for forgiveness" method although I tend to follow the "asking for permission" route. ??? There is a national forest, believe it or not, in New York State in the Finger Lakes that has two campgrounds; I've looked at both but since I have a trailer, I found the regular campground sites to be a bit small. The other one is an equine campground but they have 5 sites that, if not filled by people with horse trailers, can be used by regular campers and there would be lots more space for me. Haven't tried it yet but it's on my bucket list.

    I love watching you. I so wish I could meet you someday. I’m still in stock and brick and will be for at least a while. So far I can’t find a van I like. I’m in my SUV still. I take my dog though when I go places. You remind me so much of the teachers I worked with and really liked. Thanks for your energy and inspiration.
