    Nice little ending to my day, Shug.
    Great to see someone out there in the piney woods enjoying themselves, while I'm here in the shop slaving away! Just kidding buddy.
    Anxiously awaiting part 3!

    Looks like a great place to hang out there!

    Got home tonight and could not wait to check and see if Part 2 was posted! Thanks for making the evening a little more fun and hope that knee improves for you during the night.

    Yet another guden the Shugrow. Glad to hear the hammock therapy helped your knee a bit. Be sure and take care of it. I'd hate for something to cause you to be unable to enjoy the piney woods as much as you obviously do. Afterall who's videos would we all watch then? You know other than Fronkey, Water Monkey, Hawkeye, FireinmyBones, Grizz, BF5, Redoleary, Tendertoe, Medicine Man, ChickenWing, Blaze, BrucieHi5, Dutch, SnakeSession, Smokeeater908, Sticks, Pizza, Bluefin, SteelerNation...you see. Not enough else to watch.

    Hope you get feeling better sooner rather than later. And when ever I run into you at the Gorge I got cigar for ya. No antics required.

    Shugrow ... now there's a video ... actually a second video that really can make ya feel like you were there. Maybe it's just reminders of trips where those same feelings crossed my mind. Windy cold nights where just getting a warm meal and a good nights sleep were what was important but didn't distract from the solo trip in a beautiful place! Nicely done as always pal.

    The adventure continues....

    Hey Shug,

    Another great video. Good plan to skip the fire that evening, it did look cold and windy....good time to snuggle in the down quilts. I look forward to part three.

    Hope the knee gets better soon.
    Take care,
    Bluefin

    When were you out there. I camped at that campsite on Labor Day. The pile of firewood looked familiar. Not a very well used site. Nice video.

    I humbly thankee.....

    Is that the "4 Season" at 8'-6" wide or the "Winter Palace" at 10'-7" wide?

    I hope the knee feels better after a good night's sleep.
    It is the 4-season one. Mighty fine))))) The hammock healed my knee.

    Did wince a bit. I like that word. Many thanks.

    Very pretty site. I'd have made the same call on passing on the fire. There are times a feller just wants to get calories in the storehouse, and beat-up body surrounded by downy goodness, protected from the wind, with a little bit of a sway thrown in. You can't capture that feeling in a video, but you sure can invoke the memory of it.

    Happily anticipating ( like the rest of your admirers ) the next installation.
    I am just kinda lazy as well. Good nights sleep for sure.

    The colors of the leaves in the beginning were crazy. It looked like you were walking on colored tissue paper, or confetti. So beautiful.

    Thanks for sharing. I hope your knee is all goods.
    I slept 10 hours un-interrupted. It was like tissue paper....good call. Thankee....

I have an alpaca scarf and last year it became one of my favorite pieces of gear. Been thinking about a toque . Glad your knee is a bit better,,careful now,,,you know what i mean....older guys still feelin young,,,i'm older. Sometimes i don't even use my BushBuddy when its windy. Happy trails.

    Heard the wolves in the morn' or early eve more. Truly a gift.
