Oh how I've learned the hate the word "resilient" over the last six months... I lost my infant son to SIDS just before Steve lost Jess, I lost my home and nearly everything I owned in my grief, I lost my 7 year old daughter for an entire month, and now I'm trying to rebuild my life from nothing, with very very little help... And sure, everyone wants to call it "resilience" that I'm here, and I'm trying. But the truth is, it was simply pure animal instinct that made me survive for months and months and months. It's only very recently that I've found reasons to want to live again. Surviving through grief is far less than resilience much of the time... it's just a mindless fog of pain, and your body does what it needs to do to continue to b function largely by reflex. It's been a very rough journey back to the light. So I hate that word, "resilient."

Oh dear, sweet man. It’s been 22 years since my husband unexpectedly died and there are days that I still cry without warning. It’s ok. It’s good. It’s healthy ❤ My oldest daughter, her husband, and my oldest granddaughter live on The Island so I’m enjoying this series because I’m missing the area right now.

Steve, I’m going to give you the long story, but please read to the end. As I was growing up, I would go camping with my uncle on a very regular basis. We would go to a National Forest a few hours away and do very primitive camping. We would try new equipment, but the idea was less is more. Often, we wouldn’t take more than a large tarp, a couple of bungie cords (beer of course!), a saw, and a little bit of food. These are some of my best memories as an adolescent and early adult. Then life happened and we started going less and less. I joined the Army and moved away. Starting a new chapter in life, I got to do some really cool things and see some very cool places. I deployed to Afghanistan twice (for a year each time) and got to experience war firsthand. There were constant explosions and firefights, and a lot of good people weren’t the same after the dust cleared. We lived in a tent (with about 30 people), I slept on a cot. Space was extremely tight, but that’s as close to camping as you can get in that region lol. I was injured pretty substantially during my first deployment, and again on the second. After returning home, sleep was a big hurdle. It’s kind of strange that while you’re over there you sleep fine (maybe because you’re just so drained from the day), but once you get home is when it gets harder. I used to lay in bed and imagine being back on my cot and in my sleeping bag in order to appreciate the astounding comfort difference and try to go to sleep. Sometimes it helped, sometimes not. Recently, I accidentally clicked on and watched one of your stealth camping videos. Not gonna lie at first I was like what the hell is this guy doing. But after watching, I noticed how carefree you seemed. How much you truly enjoyed being outside (and drinking beer). It absolutely brought me back to when I used to love camping. I never did it in the middle of a freeway, or behind a billboard or any of the other crazy places you have- but I would like to. The point of this whole ramble is that your videos bring a sense of calm to me. I watch one every night before going to bed, and it really helps to put my mind in a place of calmness and happiness. I sleep a lot better recently. I really appreciate it. I appreciate your humor and your approach to getting into the woods (or wherever). I miss camping very much and plan to get back to it. Lastly, I Googled your name to try to get some background on who this guy is. I was shocked to see that you recently suffered a terrible loss in your life. I want to offer my deepest condolences. Coming from someone who also has delt with tragedy, I understand how hard it can be. I want you to know that what you do brings joy and happiness to peoples lives. Keep doing what you’re doing and know that you are no longer sleeping alone in the woods. Patrick

[@michaellee6489]

Thank you for your Service and Sacrifice, Sir. Wish you many happy days camping or whatever else brings you joy!

Beautifully said. I'm glad you found this community too. Hope you stick around for more.

Hi Patrick, I dont know you or will probably ever meet you. But I hope you are well my friend. Steve Is a great example of how good people should live their lives, and I am glad that a good person like yourself agrees. I wish you good health sir

I agree as far as the videos being good for winding down, good nighttime material lol.

[@ness4019]

Patrick thanks for sharing your beautiful story. I’m so glad you found Steve and his calmness to help you relax at the end of the day. I’m truly sorry that what you did for your country now keeps you from resting at night, but I’m glad you’ve found some solace with Steve’s stealth camping. I send you a big hug from Australia.

[@Nicola_Bailey]

There is just something about these videos. Perhaps it's the beautiful scenery (yes, even when it's behind a sign on a duel carriageway), or the constant frisson of peril that comes from the possibility of getting spotted at any moment, or perhaps it's the softly spoken gentleman who takes us all with him on these adventures. I for one am incredibly grateful to you Steve, for bringing me along for something I am not physically able to do myself. Much love to you.

[@UnbelievableOdyssey]

I couldn’t really get if it was an unintentional Skinner moment with the steamed hams. Until he said “that’s the steam from the steamed hams we’re having”. Even though you’re going through such a tough time, it’s nice to see that you can still find humour and jokes. Don’t forget that in turn you’re making someone else laugh and that’s an amazing thing.

[@DonaldScottMckim]

Hey Steve, When I first started watching your videos a few years ago, I had pretty recently suffered a loss very similar to yours (my deepest sincere condolences to you), and, having become very solitary myself, I felt commaradary watching this affable guy (you) having these good-natured solitary adventures. My heart went out to you when you spoke about your loss. Sadly, I suffered another very significant loss this past October, and am currently right there with you in the throws of grief (the holidays were very tough). I think you're kinda brave: time alone with nothing to do but think can be extremely hard time. I know nothing really takes the grief away, but in those times when you've got the camera shut down and the grief grabs you, I want you to know that you've helped people (me, at least) and you're not entirely alone; and I hope that helps a little bit. Keep on keeping on.

[@Brandom]

Take care of yourself Steve, it tears me up to see you struggle. You've solidified my quest to live a simpler life and be happy with less. Thank you for all you've done, and all you'll be doing in the future, you're a great human being.

[@gillessibilleau8461]
