I hope y'all realize you give people around world joy sharing your life with us. Thanks

[@datlouisianalife]

We enjoy what we do. We love seeing all the great feedback. It warms the soul!

Since a child, it's been my dream to live on a house boat, literally living off the waterways, connecting, lands where the vibes are always real in nature, I live in Northern michigan, surrounded by rivers, lakes, Forrest, living off the swamps.. let's go... ❤😊 Great job guy's,

[@keitheads4882]

I love you people!

[@jerrybeach6308]

Love seeing a family outdoors having a good time together

[@SgtTibbsmama]

I found your channel through Peter also. LOVE seeing your adventures! Thank you for sharing your home, State, culture.

[@jeb533]

Drake will remember those times for the rest of his life. Good times. It goes by so fast

[@f.k.burnham8491]

The trim really improved the look of the camp. What I am impressed with is you all complement and thank each other for doing chores, cooking, etc. Something I seldom see in anyone's videos. Your videos make me want to come and fish, crab, & crawfish there. Your regulations are SO much more relaxed than they are here in the dictatorship of Washington State..

[@donnaharter]

We love watching you guys from South Carolina. I love your accents ya'll.

[@gregsullivan8956]

Shake,shake, shake. Shake yo rue. Let the good times roll.

[@anotherdayontherock]

Got the boss man a tshirt and hat ! He will be thrilled. Next best thing to being on a boat! We wish you guys the very best, love watching y’all enjoy each other, and enjoying life!

[@bucknibler]

Always look forward to seeing your videos.

[@phillipcostanzajr.7989]

Hanging with the loving family is always a good time, no matter what!!! God bless

Place looks good. The upgrade is probably nicest in bad weather when home bound. 👍

[@Tau20]

Sure miss my Louisiana life. Many years fishing the swamps. Enjoy it while you can.

[@traceydriver3171]

I’d love to find a companion like this.

[@Pmgraham]

That stew looks delicious. Had my mouth watering

[@38possum]

Love your Cabin! You all know how to live life i can tell you that.

[@rl2109]

Even with the weather, the weekend was fine times! That crawfish stew looked awful... AWFUL TASTY! God bless ALL of us! WWG1WGA

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you! The stew was delicious!

Speaking of seasoning, my grams used to say she "put her foot in the pot" I believe Mrs. T puts straight love into everything she cooks. Beautiful family, a beautiful life.

[@sabinacheshire3753]

You are so lucky I’m jealous. You have a amazing time eating it

[@jessiecarter4003]

When the catfish came up to the camera you could see the fish and hear the dog panting lol my son said “fish don’t breathe like that” 😂

[@datlouisianalife]

🤣

[@camibajek2286]

❤ hugs ❤

[@sabinacheshire3753]

Good job, Miss Tara

[@nancykrull2151]

Already looks like a different house inside, molding looks great.

[@lindajohnson615]

I always enjoy watching you guys no matter what you do. But the only problem is it always has to come to an end. Later.

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you! It only ends for a little while!

[@sabinacheshire3753]

Oh, that looks so good

[@OfficialRobDoherty]

Looking good y’all! That molding adds a touch of class!!!! Otters would tear up y’all’s fish basket up here on our lakes. Yellow bullhead aka Polly wog.

[@truckcampinglifemag]

I am so glad Peter introduced your channel to me. I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos.

Good afternoon from east tx . Nice trim . Love the new place

[@loriah65]

You guys have a great time with family and friends and enjoy fishing and playing in the water. My family is from the south but grew up in the North West. I loved visiting LA when we could. Love the food and Visiting family. ❤. And I’m a new subscriber. Love your channel!! ❤

Another fine video y'all enjoy it and the trim looks good in there like the color

[@mankinmarketing]

Love watching your videos. One side note… I have that same metal bed frame. Be careful kicking those leg post with bare feet. Breaking a toe really hurts. I use a pool noodle that I cut and place around the legs. Enjoy!

[@datlouisianalife]

Thanks for the tip!

[@wirinharwirjawan6422]

Awesome and thanks for sharing!!!

[@sabinacheshire3753]

I enjoyed your video thank you very much

[@leroywindsor5914]

Keep up the good work.or fun.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

I see your tshirt and love it! It’s hard to find nice cotton tshirts that are such a nice cut and fit (im 50s), so many are just made for the young ones. Im going to be placing an order! Love y’all! I think you are filling such a gap for much needed content. 🥰

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Yes, you’re young! But you know what I mean.. I like the sleeve and all. I love how y’all have respect for each other and work so hard, and love what you do and your life. It’s so nice to see. Work hard, and okay hard! And eat so well! 🥰

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Okay, back to video! I had to go order my tshirt before they were gone! 🥰

[@beargroundshomestead]

Yummmm! Love to have some of that crawfish stew!

[@gunny2044]

You had me at crawfish stew...

[@stevenfloyd9284]

Poor Andy. My dog would be begging for that Cajun food!!

[@datlouisianalife]

I got him on a diet!

[@glenntoups4615]

Nice relaxing weekend chillin on da porch in the breeze catching whatever bites, Tara that crawfish stew looked AMAZING.....I am gonna have to try adding Rotel to my roux. Like I said before if you got a good cajun gal with you always......you will NEVER STARVE. Drake you are a big help with chores and you are a good card player. BTW who won the $5 fishing rodeo....Mama T I presume. Hope the wind dies down for your next installment of DAT LOUISIANA LIFE....Until then....LATER

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank goodness we have a bigger porch! It's been a game changer, especially on days when the weather doesn't play nice and we just hanging around the camp. Tara kicked our butts on the fishing. 🤣 Thanks buddy!

[@hawkwrangler1950]

We call those bullheads and some call them yellow bellies. #1 Flathead bait in our local rivers. We call it Flathead candy.

[@datlouisianalife]

Never tried them for bait!

[@millerbiltranch904]

Tara, that crawfish stew looked Delicioso, we really enjoy watching you guys and I just love love love the new camp. I can’t say it enough. not that I didn’t like the other camp. Later.

[@julieagain]

At 29:44 the clouds to your left on the screen looks like an alligator head 😊

[@stmn346]

Y’all my people !! We play 31, Booray all the time. Love this way of life. Much love Dat Life ❤

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you!

[@youroutdoors5453]

Even though the lake was too windy to travel on, it's always a great day at the camp. See you on the next one.

[@datlouisianalife]

Hey buddy! Appreciate it! Camp Life is where it's at!

[@youroutdoors5453]

@@datlouisianalife The wife and I both agree. We have been looking for one but our youngest is turning 16 this year so a car purchase is coming first, then it's all about a houseboat.

[@LSHF]

We are so jealous! We used to have a houseboat when my grandparents were still with us. Y’all keep enjoying Dat Louisiana Life.

[@johndanley5411]

Did you have a tree limb blow down there by the porch another good video from the house boat iam hooked on your channel ❤❤and God bless you all

[@datlouisianalife]

A whole tree fell right in front of the camp. We had to cut branches off of the porch. We were very lucky!

[@mmcleod111]

Another awesome video. What a wonderful family time together. That crawfish stew looked wonderful!

[@jgs1564]

I was introduced to your KZbin channel watching the episode Peter Santanello did with you guys and your dad. I really your videos. I have to say, the crawfish stew you made looks absolutely delicious - I can almost smell the aroma, just from watching the video!

[@williambowman]

I look forward t watch your swamp life. I find it very entertaining and relaxing! It takes me away from this ickie city life. Thanks

[@datlouisianalife]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@G.Rousseau]

Hahaha...teach Drake a poker face...he gave his hand away with the excitement on his face. Great video...

[@davidasimkosr4641]

A basically relaxing weekend !!

I’m a South Louisiana Chef from Franklin Looks Beautiful wish I was there ❤

Maybe not exciting but very entertaining

[@NetNathan1]

What a nice mellow life..

You ever catch and cook snapping turtles? Good stuff and and so much you can do with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@tanyahouston5635]

Good to see Drake out of his wrist brace. Yay!

[@datlouisianalife]

He's been begging to get that brace off!

1st Time watching you guys LOVE EVERY BIT OF IT❤😊😮

Glad you think so!

[@bennetts-revenge_2]

I just watching y'all, it sure made a dreary day so much better. That food looked so good! I buy Cajun spices and Louisiana hot sauce all the time. Yum yum. Thanks for great videos, makes my day

[@MickTaylor-x3t]

Another great video just fishing and enjoying life nothing like that in the UK

[@Warwick-lt1mo]

Besides the beauty, fun, being able to catch your own dinner from your own front porch not to mention the FREEDOM 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸, great fun life you have, Hello there from Virginia!

[@VictorArguello-d4v]

You all should have a recipe book on the food you cook

[@RONOLSEN-fp2ib]

Love that Tara stew, different all the time, but always great

[@datlouisianalife]

Thank you!

[@JnnnL]

Is the new camp next to the old? I think if I lived there I would have to have my camp on the water. I bet you guys sleep like babies with the cabin gently rocking. I know I would, I sleep like crap in my bed.😂😂 Once again Thanks for taking Us to camp with ya!😁

[@datlouisianalife]

Yes it is! Right next door! I can cast my bait onto the backporch! Lol Tara

[@JnnnL]

@@datlouisianalife That’s too funny, make sure you get that cast on video, I want to see it.😂😂😂

Now I’m craving pancakes. Love the show

[@danielvelez4001]

Drake wasn’t happy either out a pole ❤❤😂😂

[@LoriL010]

We play cards with toothpicks, so grains of rice cracked me up. It's a good idea! The stew looked yummy. 💙

[@brian7327]

Y'all channel has got to be my favorite on KZbin now look forward to seeing y'all post and WOW I got to try this crawfish Stew have you tried the fire roasted Rotel and you can never add to much Louisiana hot sauce can't wait until the next video 😂 great job Drake helping with chores fine young man

[@datlouisianalife]

Really appreciate it buddy!

[@williamwelling4872]

Great people great life all the best to you and family cheers

[@BigKahuna-mp5mx]

so fancy

[@PoppaRock]

The end did it for me. Getting Drake involved with helping with chores is such an important thing to teach kids these days. Kids these days are extremely to spoiled and have no chores or anything to teach them how to survive on their own.

[@datlouisianalife]

We need Drake to know how to take care of stuff so that when/if he ever wants to go with his friends when he's older, he knows what all is required. He also has chores at home! We all do! Lol

[@disco07]

Yep!

[@Jeannine-jf4ie]

Bonjour good morninf

[@Deadcntr]

Those little bullhead are great catfish bait. Flathead love them live.

[@raymondwatkins1068]

Hi Tara, hey could you put the recipe for the crawdad stew? OMG that sounds bomb. I would like to try a lot of this food that you guys make I don’t know being in California if I can buy crawdads pre-prepared. I’m gonna find out though cause I’m sure after watching you guys eat that tonight, gonna want some thank you in advance. Have fun.👍🎣😎

[@AquaTech225]

Definitely is something very special of a meal. Least when it’s done right. I’m sure there’s is good. But I’ve even had it hit from stores here an wasn’t impressed. Though they skimp on things because it’s all about making money off of it. I’m sure that plays part. Hopefully they catch your comment there’s is probably good seems to be pretty close to how I do mine. The main difference is. When it’s done I turn the heat way down. A crack however many eggs on the top. An let them poach in the stew with a lid on. And they take on all of the flavors I believe a lot better. Just gotta do it when ya know ya won’t need to stir for a while

[@datlouisianalife]

Hi! Once I write it up, I'll post it on our community page and you'll get a notification, if you signed up for notifications. It's hard for me to think of each step when I'm not cooking. Haha! Just give me a little time. ❤️. Tara

We haven't yet! But we do spend A LOT of time digging them out of our clothes 🤣🤣

I know they probably said somewhere but what are they using for freshwater supply? I would assume drinking is separate but what about showers dishwater-I note on pressure at the sink, and even toilet. They probably told us somewhere but I don’t remember. Thanks!

[@datlouisianalife]

We use filtered bayou water. Not for cooking and drinking.

@@datlouisianalife nice…thx for quick response!
