I just turned 74 and i stated camping just 4 years ago. I travel 6-8 months of the year now. I have stayed at RV parks mostly but you have inspire me to expand my travel options. This coming week my 22' camper will be upgraded with a 250AH battery, 2200W inverter, battery monitor and solar so I can visit those beautiful places as you do. I depart June 25 for a 3 month excursion to Arizona, Utah, Colorado and South Dakota. 90% will be boondocking. Thank you for your inspiration and God bless you.

Catherine Diane... Happy anniversary angel. Yes, what a great ride. I have so enjoyed following your adventures and life. And you already know how inspirational you've been to me. Actually I've always been a very private person. Hard to believe isn't it?? I have opened up to you possibly more than most people in my life. Even my ex wife. I guess that's because I feel you and I have a lot in common. Yes, I'm fully aware that we've never met. And I've never even shared a picture of myself with you. That's going to change in the near future. It has been my honor to be one of your subscribers. And I have enjoyed donating to you through the super thanks function and will continue to do so. Am I the only one utilizing that function?? Once again. Happy fourth anniversary sweetheart. Keep doing what you're doing. It means more to me than you might realize. Be safe when you're traveling. And always have fun wherever you go. See ya, bye. Love you. ❤ Randy. 🎼 P.S... new recipe. "Orange- garlic fettuccine ". I don't think I have it quite perfected yet. But the first attempt was pretty damn good.

Hi Catherine--Happy Fourth Anniversary of living on the road FT! You've certainly have found ways of nesting, of maintaining your social connections with family and friends as well as making new ones in your nomadic community. You've untethered yourself from the 9:00 to 5:00 rat race and are living it on your own terms plus have mastered your fears. The end result is that you are living the life you want and are able to share your adventures through your awesome photography and cinematography. Look forward to many more years of on-the-road adventures! Jenny 💜🐺🐾🪶🦉🌲🌺

I wanted to share with you my story of buying my truck. I went to the dealership and met a real nice young salesman who proceeded to show me this wonderful 4 x 4 truck. We got to talking about towing and camping. It came up in the conversation that I watched a KZbin channel about a young woman who started a nomadic life living in her truck camper. I mentioned your name Catherine and he said “I watch that channel too!” Can you believe that the salesman selling me a truck also watched you? You are well known Catherine! We had a lot to talk about that salesman and I! A lot of the conversation centered around your wonderful videos and all of the incredible information you’ve shared and how you have inspired so many people to try this wonderful lifestyle. I did purchase the truck and it’s sitting out in my driveway right now waiting to be loaded up and hitched to my tiny trailer. We hope to take off next week. Thank you for all you do! We love you ❤❤❤

Happy Anniversary! Your reasons are very well said. They can be applied to all aspects of this country. Loneliness is a mind set and you have done well Ms Catherine. Remember you can be as lonely or more so in "The Big City" too. I listen to your vids and am trying some of your recommendations. Athletic Greens is one. Trying that out. Agent Orange and combat stress have long since ruined my metabolism and endocrine system. We will see how that works out. Keep you posted. Again, congratulations on 4 years!

4 years ! I really appreciated this honest talk. I just started my maiden journey and wondered what I’m doing right and wrong. I’m spending so much money and you pointed out exactly how you did it too. I’m just on a journey. Destination unknown. But as I drive, it becomes me & my SUVtogether pulling my small travel trailer. Learning about them on the road, over the mountains & thru the woods. It’s been a wet few months , as winter turns to “Spring” it’s still raining & snowing where I’ve gone ! So many State Parks aren’t open yet , dirt is mud yep! and boy am I “getting my feet wet “! The battery gets drained running the furnace. Or the 12v fan ( for cooking). Keeping an eye on management and maintenance. But I’m learning! The solar panels would not have helped me in this rainy weather . But if they’re working - gotta love the silence. 💕 ! Using and staying on BLM land has me wondering how you manage your water - one tank will not last 14 days. Can you talk on that ?

I think what is so great is how you represent a portion of the overall RV/Camping community and lifestyle! You present how to go solo into the vast wilderness and spaces, and experience such in the manner that works best for your needs; (contentment, peace of mind, serenity, and such!). Then, you capture them in your footage to play back for those of us to view; for some to enjoy through your channel, but also to help guide and promote to others of where to go for themselves. Admittedly, I like being in group aspects in the Wild; (I guess its the safety in numbers thing for me), but I truly appreciate your sense of solo adventure that you find so rewarding! The main thing is that no one's style is wrong or right; it is just how they feel they receive the greatest benefit from the experience! Congratulations on your milestone accomplishment, and I look forward to watching your upcoming adventures! ~Lou

Hi Catherine I just subscribed to your Channel, and have enjoyed the few videos I have watched. I'm not a full-time rver but I have been investigating it you might say for the last couple of years on KZbin and I'm really interested in the boondocking aspect of camping, I've learned a lot about solar, lithium, inverters, generators Etc., now I'm trying to figure out what RV would be best a travel trailer or Class C but I am leaning more towards travel trailer anyway the one thing that I'm concerned about when it comes to boondocking especially in the Pacific Northwest or Southwest or just west in general have you ever encountered any bears, mountain lions or poisonous snakes and Are there specific things you can do to avoid them as much as possible cuz I would be out there alone and I would think it might be wise to have some bear spray and a firearm, I'm just curious about what your thoughts are. Thank you for the things that you share on your Channel it gives me more confidence to take that step out into the wild.

Well done, Cat 4 years...I admire women like you that have that old frontier spirit...It's takes cajones to leave everything behind and start a new life adventure...love your videos and taking me along to places I will never have a chance to experience.

Thanks for this Catherine! I've been a "fan" and subscriber for a couple years now and you've been a huge inspiration for me to get my 60 year old butt out and enjoy life more on my terms. Keep up the good work!!

I’d be curious to hear what you spend on fuel and camping fees in a giving year and what percentage of that is boondocking vs. pay camping.

You have made great videos, so real and honest. You have inspired many I'm sure. Thank you for your wonderful videos. Danger is real but fear is a choice. I believe you have made many look at that part of their lives and given them the courage and inspiration to leap into the unknown.

Great story Catherine but I did have to laugh at one thing you said. That was how you worked your whole life for the man. As young as you are that life must be about half as long as mine, LOL I'm just 3 months from an old man retirement though so I'll be there soon. Congratulations to you for being much smarter than me in doing it a lot sooner. 🙂

4 years is awhile. Congradulations. I think we have been on the road for about 4 years. It certainly went by fast. That you for all your hard work. You are a Sunday/Monday tradition in our rig.

Great life-style summary video! Your words of wisdom are most noteworthy and above all they come from the heart and experience. Your videos are unique in that you seem to capture the nuances of life often missed by so many.

There is always the potential for trouble and situational awareness is your best defense. One thing I learned over the years being in construction is that bad guys live in the city mostly. In the west anyway. I worked on a job with some serious gang boys up in the mountains once. First time a bear came around they were standing on roofs and running away, not returning the next day.. That was in Arrowhead and a long time ago but a funny story that adds a point... I think most fear comes from the unknown...

I can’t believe you don’t go get a little dog out of the shelter. You would make a great dog mom have a little hiking buddy and at night the will definitely let you know if someone is lurking outside. Little dog and a big side arm perfectly fits you.
