I feel very relaxed when I watch you and Cali. I am a very depressed and I have anxiety really bad after my 36 yr old son died 3 yrs ago. I found this KZbin site and have watched it all. Like I said I never felt so calm in a long time since I started watching you! Thank you

Hang in there dawna. Things will get a little easier. Keep your mind on the Lord when you get anxious or depressed. It never goes away but we "learn" how to live with it. God bless & keep you near Him.

Shawn, your photography is outstanding! The music is so calming with the scenery and how you include Cali, just the best videos I have ever seen! Love watching Cali sway that hind end and wag that pretty tail is all I can take before I start to tear up! Your videos take my breath away! I enjoy them so much, I sit for hours watching them and realize my morning coffee runs into lunchtime! The tearing is not for sadness but from the pleasure of watching you go about your day living the dream! I can almost feel the snow beneath my feet, the smell of the trees, the water rushing and you are real easy on the eyes! No worries for your wife, I'm 67! Teehee! The truth is, it's a little too late for me to live this way, it's something I should have done many years ago! Now, I'm recovering from heart surgery and now enjoying my time just watching your video's and seeing how other people live. I've turned the TV off and don't watch the news! I've always wondered how a log cabin was built, so now I know! You teach so much about how to live in survival mode, like starting fires, cooking and making coffee! I once had a coffee pot like the one you brew yours in and still do have my cast iron pots and skillets! I can't let those go. I live in Central Louisiana now and we do cook a lot of gumbo's and jambalaya in them. There is one question I have, hopefully you can answer. Cali looks so healthy and fit. What do you feed her to keep her so active and her coat is just stunning! We can tell she's living a great lifestyle and is such a happy girl! Any suggestions on dogfood and how much? Thanks!

[@MrHikerToYou]

The quote at the end put me back into a canoe with my father when I was a teenager. Fishing on a lake in New Hampshire, early morning with fog floating just above the water. We listened to large mouth gulping bugs off the surface. It seemed just natural to move in a crawl, to speak in a whisper, as though nature was still resting and we were the children of the earth respecting the wishes of peace and quiet. Every clunk of an oak or crash of a lure against the water echoed as though a book had landed with a crash in a library. I miss that.

[@outdoorsforever1027]

I was fortunate enough to live in the forest for 15 yrs. I will never forget the smell you mentioned. I literally lived on a hill in the town of Foresthill, California. I had to drive down the hill for work but the minute I got home and opened the car door the smells of the forest greeted me. I will never forget my time there. I miss living there. I'm in Humboldt County now in Northern CA. It is also surrounded by forests but you have to go deeper into the trees to get that wonderful forest smell. I enjoyed today's video with a bit of nature, Cali, and a lesson on trees. Have a lovely day! :) Sharon from California

In one video, when you sharpened your construction pencil it brought me back to my childhood when I watched my dad for a few years every weekend out build our home. How happy he was to be doing something that brought him such pride and accomplishment. You keep me close to him with such a simple action. Maybe that's why I like the lumber department. It's the fragrance of the wood. Stay in nature it's where we are meant to be. Thank you.

That little stove reminds me of my great grandmother, Mary Stuart, who always cooked on a woodburning stove and ironed all her clothes with an iron heated by the stove‼️❣️I loved going to visit her in her little house in Yakima, Washington. She used to tell us stories of Idaho where my Grandmother Grace was born and raised (and my mother too). She used to take my grandmother with her and row a little boat across the Snake River to cook for all the Ranch Hands on a big ranch there in Idaho. She had a little bottle of small colorful gems in all colors,saying she had found them in the rivers of Idaho.
