[@dannysoria6631]

My wife and I really enjoy your videos. We love camping we appreciate your camping style and wonderful food your wife prepares.

[@la_profe_negra]

Cody! slow down! That was thrilling! Yes, I did feel like I was riding your bike. Love that new go-pro chest harness.

[@stroop3666]

I would totally get lost! So glad u guys do this as a couple.

[@TranceDivine]

Wow that bike segment of the video got me scared ..how fast you guys go on those trails..I would of went off the edge.. haha

[@dinabutler5797]

The food, the trails, the water, great vlog!

[@rolandschneider3606]

Thank you for those awesome video views of the lake, above it and in it, as well as kayaking on it! I also loved you video as you mountain biked that trail. I felt like I was there with you every bit of the way! Lastly, I love the wonderful recipes that Kelly does. Not sure when we’ll be able to camp again, so at least we are able to experience camping through you both! Thank you for another great ca,ping adventure!

[@lindaharshman4228]

The water footage with that music is mesmerizing! So beautiful!

[@stroop3666]

I would love to return to an awesome modern cabin full of comforting and wonderful amenities!

[@christopher4567]

Ohhhh......mountain biking! Just upgraded my RockShox Reba to a Pike! I can't wait to get out on the trail!

[@Maria-Aus]

Great idea for the chest mount on the mountain bike trails. Footage looks great! 👍🏼 I’m Australian but used to live in KC and wish I had known to explore down where you guys are! Looks like heaven! Thanks so much for your videos. Brings me so much happiness to watch. Love the cooking also!

[@spellsforsale6871]

Sooooo beautiful! I think I've said this before, but y'all have made me fall in love with Arkansas ❣️

[@silby77]

Another great video as usual! Always love the drone footage....such beautiful shots of the lake. The pasta dish looked spectacular. And I have to add, Cody I love how you are always saying things like "Best day ever!" or "Best morning of my life!" It shows your excitement for life and my daughter tends to do the same thing! Also, I'm so excited to see spring coming to life as well!

[@currybushnell9236]

Cody, very nice transition from underwater to sky. Well done.

[@BinkyNoss]

Love the underwater to drone transition. Very clever!

[@currybushnell9236]

Nice transition from water to air Cody.

[@crystalfolse3208]

Kelly you rock! Awesome drone footage. Great content. Keep up the positive vibes for our hurried world. Om Peace

[@darlenestout7548]

Wow that bike ride was awesome. Beautiful day

[@ursinidaho]

Watching you cook over the course of many vlogs, has made me enjoy and appreciate the art of cooking again. I enjoy it more and I am more creative in my choices. I was kind of in a rut. So thanks. And the drone footage was awesome.

[@terrymanetz2276]

I am ready for the cook book kiddos. 😎😎😎❤️❤️❤️ Stephanie M. 💜

[@johnstreet1580]

The weather is starting to warm up, there's a little cold weather left, but not too much. Y'all enjoy!

[@tomperkins9829]

It's funny that you still call it a camping trip even though it's everyday life for you two.

[@beverlystewart5518]

The anniversary of my first date with my husband is St Patrick’s Day. Hope you had a good night out on the town. Thanks for another stellar production.

[@debbyrymer9298]

Hi Kelly I have been watching you guys all day after a medical pressure and after seeing you in your Grace I am giving you a nickname you are a tweaker you tweak everything in a good way Down the stirring food to paddling your kayaks. Sucks a pleasure to watch you two you seem so kind to each other.

[@georgemoschgat3207]

Excellent transition from underwater to drone, great job!!

[@ricardoguerra9411]

The water does look great !

[@blackbarn_farm8706]

I am soooooo looking forward to your cookbook! 🥰

[@highcountrystories]

Ah. A new H3 couple!! I enjoy your videos!! I have an H3 that I am putting a 4.8 v8 in. It burned a valve and I busted the head bolts off taking the head off! Both common problems.. Plans are to travel, camp, write, and Utube!! Anxious to get started.

[@JenniferGarton74]

I love your videos. Cody you seem so down to earth, that's so refreshing. God bless you both :-)

[@FreedomForAllForever]

This was a great video. I loved every bit of it. So glad to see you two thriving and enjoying dome life 😊 What a sweet trip! ❤

[@ursinidaho]

You guys have it going on. I really loved the bicycling part and the lake and scenery.

[@chrisdalebout5106]

Your go pro shots from the sky are amazing!🙂

[@debbyrymer9298]

Love watching you guys We live on the Hiwassee river in Polk county Tennessee such an amazing place for you guys to visit. I am inviting you both to come see us

[@sarahboston923]

Enjoyed this! Brighten my spirits for the warmer weather to have more outdoor adventures! PA here has been a roller coaster with nice spring weather than ice cold with rain and or snow. Keep it up you two! 💚💚💚🌲🍀

[@jamesjohns5112]

Amazing bike ride on the trail. Sort of scary as you zip thru the trees. Looks fun for those that know how to ride like you.

[@maryparks3389]

So beautiful, so fun, so well-fed!

[@annapennrose1158]

The Upper Peninsula has world class has mountain trails that people come from all over the world to ride and it is a beautiful area. I thought I would tell you just in case you ever come back.

[@zeusisgreat4896]

That one quiet scene about 16 in with the squeaky sandal had me rolling on the floor! Thanks for sharing. It's getting hot in the desert so we'll be heading back to Arkansas soon. Thanks for sharing your lives.

[@CodyandKellie]

I’m so happy you got that lol. Cody was rolling to. It was my chair squeaking

[@robinwilson8435]

So...y'all need to visit the Pacific Northwest for some great mountain biking. My tiny town of Oakridge, Oregon boasts to be the Mountain Biking Capital of the Northwest. The trails here (over 500 miles) are pretty challenging. Bend, Oregon also has good mountain biking. Great camping all over too, from Eastern, Oregon to the Coast. Some great free hot springs.

[@pageroo9644]

That last trail you did after putting your drone in the bag was amazing! It made me feel like I was having a VR biking experience on the trail and coupled with the background music made it EPIC! 👌 👌

[@xdjillusionx]

Adjust the top screw on your pepper grinder for you Coarse preference.

[@victoriabroyles6467]

Great filming as usual. I love your outlook and life.

[@veeemit9719]

Whoa! It feels like we are on the ride!🙂. The shot that made it appear as if the drone had been under water was just excellent.

[@lisajones-qe1zn]

This was the perfect camping video. Loved the whole vibe. We can’t wait till we can get out there too. Thanks!

[@debbyrymer9298]

Hi from Tennessee again I have heard you guys saying you want to come to Tennessee. Still inviting you to Polk County the white water playground. The Olympic Games were held here 1996 we are living on the Hiwassee River and want you guys to experience the outdoors with us in Tennessee please look up Ocoee white water and get back with us we know all the great spots to show you on the map and off you can go. Have a great cabin on the river as well you are welcome to come.

[@anthonyvisor8880]

Beautiful video!! Thanks for sharing!

[@teresasmith2038]

Beautiful scenery. Love all your vlogs.

[@pamelamikel7967]

Loved the drone footage & underwater, as well. Great food, loved this trip...Safe travels...

[@Wynsleydale]

Cody, love your enthusiasm & compliments to Kelly for saving the day with the footage. Love the drone shots and the go pro!

[@graceverssen5651]

Thanks for the greatest camping trip, you guys. Love going along for the ride, not just the literal one. And love to watch the cooking. Am living vicariously as I have some food allergies and wouldn't be able to actually eat the lovely food you make. But this girl can dream...and appreciate all the amazing food I have been privileged to have eaten in my life. Blessings to you, and thanks again for sharing yours. ❣️

[@TammysTrailsNTravel]

Great video, had a little bit of everything 😀

[@judyrobinson9556]

Looked so nice and warm. Still cool here in Wisconsin. The meals looked great, especially the baked noodle dish with all that cheese. The day on the water with the kayaks looked so relaxing. Good for Kellie that she got the computer issue figured out. A lot involved in getting the videos out to us here in you tube land!

[@mena580]

Spring has sprung! Amazing drone shot intro, editing the bike ride looked like a video game!

[@rhart8899]

Great cinematography in this episode! Well done!

[@robinunderwood2945]

You guys have so much fun,I’m right behind you soon

[@karenhunt3383]

Fantastic, best yet 👍

[@snowbirdlady8496]

What a gorgeous place! Glad you had such a lovely day. I just had dinner and watched your video. Kelly - you made me hungry all over again. I'm going to start taking notes on your camp dishes. You are such a great cook.

[@bugandmitz]

Awesome video!! Definitely going to make a trip to lake Degray soon!!

[@roblow6309]

Great video what a nice place thanks!!!

[@PACKMAN608]

Awesome video! I use that exact hand mixer every morning to froth my coffee creamer so I’d give it a shot! Thanks for the video!

[@RadDawnFMJ]

🌳🌲🍀Great job once again! Lovely opening shots and aerial sequences. 🏕

[@williamcherne1607]

Consider putting in butter in your coffee too. Butter is an alternative to creamer.

[@williamcherne1607]

Grass fed butter

[@brendahone2509]

Another wonderful vlog. I hope the bad weather that went through did not affect you? Stay safe.

[@thedeadbeats2257]

you guys are awesome! our camping season is just starting here in upstate new york but your videos help me through the long winter. i couldnt imagine camping every single day like you guys. so cool.

[@jodyreay733]

Beautiful content!! ❤️

[@kennethmoore5629]

Awesome video guys!

[@pageroo9644]

I am amazed at how much Kelly can eat and yet look soo svelte! 😊

[@brenthiteoutdoors]

Awesome video! Loved the cool under water and drone clips!

[@IShallNotBeSilent]

I thought I was the only one who does their frittata that way.It still taste gooood!! Learning to use my gopro and yes, Spring is in the air. Enjoyed the ride and nature very much. Planning trips for spring and summer right now. Who knows, maybe I will run into y'all in Arkansas. I have learned so much from watching.I loved the silence and the sounds of the rippling water. Be Blessed!

[@lynnebunning7273]

Felt like on the bike with you. Can’t you hear someone yelling at you to slow down lol scenery of lake is beautiful. I’m with you Kelly, with the chair. Perfect in a little bit of heaven. Underwater photography beautiful. Cheers Victoria Australia 🇦🇺🦘👍🏻💕💕💕💕💕🇺🇦🙏🏻🇺🇦

[@littlehouseadventures3426]

Equipment recommendation ... For all your adventures, I think the "Insta360 One x2" would be a great addition to your arsenal. With this 360 camera, you can pick the views you want to frame in editing and never miss an angle as well as so much more in post process.

[@davidclark291]

I can’t believe you cook and eat these beautiful and delicious cooking dishes for camping! You are an inspiration. Any leftovers?

[@CodyandKellie]

No left overs usually

[@anniesacres7835]

Great video

[@AngiesJonesPoetry]

such a lovely area. I love the drone footage you take

[@alexanderweaver7066]

Another great video, guys! I love how you capture nature with underwater filming, overhead shots with your drone and the trail ride on your mountain bikes. Kelly, your expertise in the culinary arts is amazing! I try but not so good. Living the van life in San Diego is phenomenal as restaurants of nearly every cuisine exist here. My daughter and I ate lunch at the Barona casino yesterday 😋 and it was outrageously delicious! I hope New Mexico offers such incredible cuisine when I travel throughout the state next month.

[@jennifercochran6398]

Contadina sauce packs a lot of flavor for a can.

[@jgpainting8815]

Looks like a great ride. I’m hoping to be there in June. Hope it’s not too hot then. :)

[@stacysheets8811]

Watching you from Tyler state park!!! Enjoy.

[@xerylemountain7154]

Just, thank you!

[@kenmabie8029]

BTW, I can see how much time it can takes you to capture lead video, B stock, assemble & edit, and add music, for the very high quality posts you share. Many thanks and keep up the good work!!❤️👍❤️

[@rogerkrull1444]

You guys eat very well!

[@TsarTrail]

Awesome video! As content creators ourselves, we can really appreciate the time you are putting into your production. It really shows. You guys keep getting better.

[@carlashreeve445]

Love your channel ❤️

[@bondy0075]

Ciao Kellie and Cody... thanks for theses amazing views and your Michelin star meals once again Kellie. 😋😋 Stay safe and well everyone Ciao Wendy 🇭🇲 in 🇮🇹😘❤️✌️💜👋

[@cargoon-cargoconversionbui2880]

Great video. Now I'm hungry!

[@teresap.5991]

We got a bunch of solar flares over the past few days and that can definitely affect your internet service and maybe that's why your videos taking so long to download. I don't know just to guess. Great video as usual you guys so glad you're having a good time! God bless! 😘

[@jimbattista1120]

I have come to the conclusion that Kellie is the 1st Lady of the lovely state of Arkansas. Another awesome video (~);}!!!

[@jimbattista1120]

I guess that makes Cody the Governor!!

[@lilivicordero8077]

Awesome

[@WoodchuckAR]

You should come back in July and see if you can find any of the freshwater jellyfish in DeGray.

[@CodyandKellie]

We find them in lake Ouachita

[@dhrtiwalter8670]

Kellie looks especially pretty!

[@hydro6917]

have you thought about a second channel just b-roll and drone footage all just nature images and beautiful music to go with the videos. or just adding it here the footage is calming

[@Exploring_Gia]

Wow 😮that was totally epic again felt like I was biking that myself epic guys love it ❤

[@CodyandKellie]

Thank you

[@cathysupp9493]

Just like everyone else; Work gets in the way of fun! Watching the upload….. Todays watched pot, that won’t boil 🤣 Love the footage on the trail! Way too scary for me

[@tentingaroundflorida]

I am starting to look into getting a ebike for trail riding. The weather starting to get better for sure

[@kenmabie8029]

Regarding the video editing, you might look into a McIntosh/Apple system. I have worked in both and found Apple to be more stable long term. Final Cut Pro is the Apple program.

[@koalabear6722]

Spring is a beautiful season except for bad storms and tornadoes. 😉

[@corymullins3737]

Great editing, I would love to be on that level.

[@grandmasstories3418]

My son is an it technician and he said you might have to reset the windows installation on the pc. Save everything first onto a hard drive

[@skadbeau]

Cody was an accountant ??? Did not see that coming, lol. (I’m an accountant too, maybe there is hope for me yet!!)

[@ChaseArkansas]

that pasta dish was AHHH MAZIN Lookin

[@ladytrekkeradventures8376]

Hey I also have a micro camper and worry about theft came across this from viewing another channel. It’s called a Amplock fits in the ball. (I’m aka Donna Waring lol). I also put a boot on mine. I have the Sunray 109 and it’s light 1280 lbs off-road camper with 15” wheels and a 6” lift so I would think it would be attractive to take unfortunately.
