What a fun camping trip with Lindsay and Sadie.you are so fortunate to have such a lovely relationship with Linds and Sadie. And I give those two ladies a double thumbs up for sleeping in a tent. Not many people go tenting anymore. Cheers!! Oh yeah,and have a drink for me!❤️❤️

Nothing better than a tent sleep!

Matthew I really enjoy watching you with your family thank you for sharing ❤😊

[@patriciac5214]

I love your camping videos. The scenery is spectacular!

[@mytinyjourney]

I have some of those retractable lights on order too ! I love that campsite on the cliff overlooking the water.

[@tinafeatherston]

That’s a gorgeous lake to this city girl. And just a gorgeous spot all around. It must have smelled wonderful with the rain and trees. One can dream and your quality content, quality content gives a lot to dream of. (I think I’m a Canadian at heart, thanks L.M.)

[@TheLeopardGirl]

This vlog had me cracked up, lots of innuendo, lots of phallic food and lots of laughs to be had! So good I'm gonna watch it again!❤❤❤

[@TLAR24]

The lake is very clean, people say, cold but not freezing. Depending on the time of year. Chair has a high back so looks very supportive. I miss camping. ❤️🇨🇦

[@Linda-xb5ol]

I felt so relaxed watching you all having a good time ❤❤❤❤❤thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

Very enjoyable quality content. I seriously had to replay you bumping into Lindsey and dropping your Get Lucky beer. Lmao!! Penny is so beautiful.

Hi Matthew, Penny, and ladies

[@lynnfrost5244]

It's the smallest things that get fixed,seem to give the most satisfaction

[@glennismossey6976]

Fantastic blog! So lovely seeing you having such a great time with Lynsey, Sadie and Miss Penny! I’m an expat Brit, 54 years in Canada! Never camped in my life ( except downtown Edmonton at Hotel MacDonald or the Westin!) But, I so enjoy following you with your incredible family just doing what you do and making the most of what you have. You are blessed.

Luv seeing Penny the golden nugget tubbers ❤😂 lots and lots of kisses and hugs to her

[@laurastewart2418]

We have fun imagining what penny is saying" just gimme tuna and no one gets hurt"😊❤

[@jackieluckyangel5610]

That little fire pit does put out a remarkable amount of heat doesn’t it? So cozy in the Bear Den at the meet up. Those hammock chairs are nice but it’s good to have a more solid one to switch with. Good to see Lindsey & Sadie out there with you, lovely spot but too bad about so much rain. I remember a rather soggy (but fun) long weekend with a bunch of 🍀🏴‍☠️🥰

[@taceyjohnson1122]

The rain definitely brought back memories of packing up in a downpour! Worth every minute though, so I'm not complaining. 😁

[@richardingram2374]

By the nines, that campground with the lake looks like Skyrim land. Gorgeous stuff.

[@naturegirl5681]

Wow you just got everything in place just in time. Beautiful campsite thanks for sharing.I really want a bear den like yours.

[@debbief2882]

Matthew, when you start making hard boiled eggs again, try putting that pink Himalayan salt, pepper and garlic on them. It is similar to what I put on mine. Yum.

[@kathleenneely7656]

Always good videos. Very down to earth.

I use Amber lens glasses #Night driving glasses. They help another for us old people.

[@VanlifePLUS]

Hmmmm interesting

[@josephvoelker]

You should put another awning up in n the back of lucky so you can pull the drawers out in the rain

[@BigV96220]

I TO AGREE 👍 💯 😅

[@victorserao7180]

I need some jam with the peanut butter

If the house battery was at 14.4, it was still in boost mode. The Renogy is a 3 stage charger. It will drop to 13.6 when fully charged and eventually 13.2.

Like I said, brush her outside on a windy day. And look at Miss P getting a semi-spa day. ❤

Another great video with Lindsay, the cousin everyone wishes they had, Sadie, everyones teenage they do have!!! 😂Just kidding Sadie! You're a sweetie 🤗 and Matthew, the friend everyone likes to hang with🥳

[@joycemariano1982]

That type of peanut butter should be stored upside down; that’ll help. Penny is gorgeous! Good to see Lindsey and Sadie again!

[@sarah_n_tank_girl]

Hello Matthew 👋O.K. I am one of those people that love camping in the rain! M-O-I-S-T!!! This very much reminded me of Chapter 1...including your excited boyish smile.

[@msanabria8159]

BLESSINGS...😂😂❤❤...YEAHHHH ONE HOUR...😅😅

[@michellebevans3847]

Ok Matthew I have to get to Superstore and get that Clubhouse seasoning and try it. Im going to like something you like 😂

[@VintageVehicleAdventures]

We have camped at chinook lake at least a dozen times…great memories there. I remember finding a flat tire in the morning on our 85 Pontiac fiero when we were about 20 years old (now 52) and we had removed the spare tire in the front so we had room for all our camping gear. We emptied out the gas in our Coleman camp stove and used the pump that you use to pressure the gas stove to fill our tire…it took 1/2 hour but we made it to a tire shop !!

[@VanlifePLUS]

Wow! Talk about making it work - good for you! That’s an excellent little story 😃

[@glennismossey6976]

Oh please use the wine glass holder! Love it 🍷🍷🍷🍷💕from Edmonton!

Your solo camping videos are my fav. so it was nice that you were able to have a night by yourself to unwind. Im not much of a rainy day camper ☔️. Had a long day at work today but I always look forward to your videos 🫶 Also super excited for your bday🎂

[@rockysmumakagma]

Omg, don’t get me started on stink bugs. They were really bad here on the west coast in BC 2 years ago, they showed up in the house for months, nasty af! What a great campsite with a lovely view! I remember the camping from chapter 1. I laughed so many times watching this 😂 I love the camping vlogs with Lindsey and Sadie, you guys are such a blast 😂 That match tho, holy crap 🔥Hope the weather cooperated the rest of the time 😊 Cheers 🍻to you all, and of course, scratches and smooches for the lovely Penny 😻

Good evening Matthew. Penny is such a good girl to not try and wander off on you 😊

[@Camille_Lee_Eon]

❤❤❤I am such an idea person...I know...I have issues, as people like to say...I like to think of it as a gift of solving problems... Anyways, Is there somewhere you would be able to anchor something like an eyehook on the innerside of your slide-out drawer, (On the frame), towards the front? Hook either a bungee cord , spring or lachet strap leading towards the back of the van where you can hook it to your lock to help prevent the constant strain on the lock? Maybe have a second hook when not in use? Sorry if this doesn't make sense😂😂😂

[@lindagilbraith5644]

Wow. Sadie roasted you with the wiener comment. She certainly takes after others in the family. Way to go girl!

[@sheilacaine]

I am not a fan of camping in the rain either Matthew. I have a couple bad times camping in the rain. Yucky. Love the new chair. ❤❤❤❤

Keep your peanut butter upside down, shouldn't separate then.

[@VanityBitty]

I’m going to be one of those annoying people that I hate for a sec, and I’m about to make you say, “No Shit, Captain Obvious 🙄” but I have to say it on the off chance you forgot…. My iPhone does that with the mic too when I don’t put iPhone in Airplane Mode and DND first. Nearby electronics from vehicles or anything else often interfere. OR, your mic in the phone is fubar and you need a new phone. 🤷‍♀️ Follow me for more pro tips 😂. Seriously though, i struggle with audio every. single. video. So I’m the last person who can help but do you think that stops me? Nope.

Wondering how many km on your van?

Question for you. I have the same van. On the dash under the tune dial for the radio is this triangle shaped thing. It looks almost like a USB port but is not. I've seen it on your dash as well. What the hell is it?!

That’s to disable the passenger side airbag. Your key should fit into it
