Camping in Rainy Snowfall With My Dog

I head out with my dog Monty into the woods to spend the night under a tarp. It starts raining and then the rain turns into snow and the forest gets coated by morning! We cook up some delicious food over the campfire and have a good time!

I'm just a girl with chronic pain and a bad immune system, but I love to live vicariously through videos like this. Off grid, camping, historical reenactment, building, hunting... My dream is to live in a log cabin built by my own two hands in a nice wooded area, with a dog and a vegetable garden and our meat hunted. You make amazing content. Hope you continue to enjoy yourself!

[@microdunce2358]

You’ll love Shaun James then

[@rustybeddingfield227]

Research the science of Nutrition. Holistic well-being + time = cures all. A failing immune system is due to bad Nutritional choices. Look into paleo, keto, avoid for-profit corporate healthcare, they are not interested in our health, only in what profit they can scam from abusing our bodies.

Yes, when Mat is talking to you, this feels so real, and even somewhat cozy, like you are there... But in reality dude is insane, he talks outloud in a forest, and he did it so many times, that even his dog already knows where camera is, and takes position facing towards it. Matthew - you are king, we were all there, with you.

[@jeastwood7358]

Ahhh, I always enjoy watching your videos. They're so nice to watch with my own dog, and I love imagining myself in them, cooking food over a nice firepit. It's a shame my dog is really prissy about the rain, but she's a shorthair, so she'd get really cold, I'd probably have to do a cabin. Btw, I like your voices for Monty and how you play with him using sticks and the sleeping bag.

What a Beautiful Sight to See as You Open Your Eyes in the Morning. The crackling fire looked so pretty you could almost smell the wood. Dinner looked so Delicious. As for myself, I would leave out the Salt & No Pepper. The Shrimp started turning orange and you could almost taste it. Topping it off with a lightly toasted Baggette. Monty seemed happy to be fetching the stick. I even think he was enjoying watching the Snow falling down. Monty looked so peaceful and so beautiful. Just a nice night all around. So glad it Snowed!
