Hot Tent Camping In Winter On The Creek

[@heavenbound358]

Hope is a Father's dream child! She's so full of life and excited about doing everything. God bless her and keep her safe.

[@gaybradly1939]

Your camping trip with your daughter brought back happy memories of camping with my four children many years ago. I am now 86 years old and bedridden on hospice care. Such sweet memories of those long ago days! My children are all deceased now but one and she is my caregiver. Thank you Dutch for blessing me tonight and I pray 🙏 you and your family have many camping trips in your future. Hope is a big help to her dad. God bless you and your sweet family.

[@RunningGreyWolf]

@gaybradley1939, my heart goes out to you. Sending good vibes & prayers💙🙏🙏🙏. God bless you and your daughter. Being a caregiver is not easy, but you get this time to spend with her sharing all your wisdom and things she needs to know before you're gone.💔💔💔💫.

[@leannekenyoung]

I’m so sorry all but one of your children have gone before you. I don’t think anyone should ever have to live through that kind of grief, thank God that your daughter is able to care for you during this last chapter of your life. Remind her of all the wonderful times you spent together it will help her once you are gone to reflect on the good times spent together. My father is 83 and in good health although my mother passed away two years ago I know he misses her dearly. I want to be his caretaker but he doesn’t want that so I try to respect his wishes and help when he allows it. I cry every time I have to leave him because I know how lonely he must be living by himself. My heart goes out to him but he’s doing it all on his own and I know mom spent a lot of time talking with him about this time and how he would be by himself. It’s hard though not to be there for him because he’s been such an amazing support in my life. I’m sure you have been for your daughter as well and I hope you are able to tell her how much you’ve loved her and how you’ve enjoyed knowing her as a person. God bless you and I pray you aren’t in any pain. 🥰❤️🇨🇦🍁🙏🏻

If more children were brought up like yours, the world would be a much better place. Love your channel, the diversity, the sounds of nature and all the education. Your children have great parents. Way to go, Dutch!

[@judithdowell3164]

Hopey is Daddy’s ‘One Gal Wonder’! She is such good help and a quick learn! Making memories Dutch which will be near and dear to her heart the rest of her life. Our dad made us tents out of his Navy blankets, in our back yard. Mother packed us goodies to eat during the night. We were never in harm’s way…we were right outside their bedroom window. I was the one that always made up goast stories. I remember Dad peeking in the tint when things got quiet, to see if we were okay. We were poor and didn’t even know it. Six of us kids and lots of love in that old house. Precious memories❤

[@caseylevy7310]

What a heartwarming video showing a great Dad enjoying time with his Daughter while teaching her the basics of camping... well done Dutch, well done!!

You and your wife are great parents. Your children are fortunate to have y’all. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

[@harveydickii9172]

Dutch, be careful when changing the wicks to the Coleman lantern. They are made from ASBESTOS and should be changed using gloves and the kids don't need to be that near to it. Be careful. I was a fully qualified ASBESTOS worker. Wet a paper towel to remove the old wick! Wash your hands after dealing with them. Looks like you had a great time. ❤

[@deborahmorton5893]

Brings back fond memories of tent camping with my kids! There is nothing better than food cooked outdoors! We use to love to camp by a stream and listen to water as you fall asleep!

The Coleman mental lantern replacement is a right of passage

[@debbeasher-k4764]

Yes it is…❤😅😊 I had it too & was thrilled to do it!❤😊

[@Colorista_1]

lol! My dad(God rest his soul) was a big game outfitter/hunting guide in the Rocky Mountains. We used a couple of big canvas tents on guided hunts. One was the kitchen/dining tent. The other (s) was the sleeping or dormitory tent. You need to realize that it was constantly below zero temperatures and there was large amounts of snow on the ground. Those stoves kept us “comfortable “ (if you can all it that, but no one ever complained) for those hunts. I couldn’t imagine staying in a tent with one of those tents in the southern US. Our tents were a very heavy canvas (they had to be to hold up against the snow, ice and wind). We slept on army cots with a sleeping bag (sometimes you needed a blanket wrapped around your head). I miss those trips. Dressed big game, elk, moose, bear, mtn goat, etc all hung in a tree. At those temperatures you needn’t worry about the meat. You certainly brought back some great memories. My dad has been gone about 5 years now, and I’ll be 65 years old next month. What a truly blessed way of life. I’m so glad that my generation wasn’t the last to experience this. Watching you and the girls always leaves me smiling. Y’all have a truly blessed day!

Looks like you’re gonna have a blast! You should put a tarp underneath your tent to protect your tent from the rocks and moisture . Hope you had fun and stay safe. You’re a great dad. ❤❤❤❤❤ The nice part of cold No Bugs👍 I bet you slept like babies with that water running.

[@ramonmacias9013]

This is a fantastic camping experience. I used to keep a small tote in my truckbox with paper napkins, grilling tools, paper plates, solo cups, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, pladtic utensils, and everything i would neef to start a campfire. Called it my portable camping and picknic kit. I also kept either a small charcoal or propane grill as part of the kit. I was always ready for a Spontaneous picnics and camping trips. This brings back memories from the last 40 years.

[@sandyburkett1824]

That baby girl will never ever forget this. Loved it💖

[@retabates3799]

I am glad you can do thing like that with you daughter, my father and I do not like to call him that ruined any child hood I could have had with him. We will leave it at that. Love you all God bless you and until next time take care

[@eltomas3634]

Super cool video and an awesome experience for y'all, that's the good stuff in life! Those old school white gas lanters can be a pain, they sure make you appreciate the propane version. The mantles are the most delicate part. It works good to shape them by hand, get them all even and perfect all the way around and globe shaped as much as you can and then lastly, light them with a match with no gas or nothing, just let them burn to ash, then put it back together gently. Fun fact, those mantles are actually RADIOACTIVE, it's how they are treated so they glow so much. Wash your hands good when your done. Looks like y'all really had a good time. Next time get the whole fam!

[@pamray1906]

The sound of the creek running is so relaxing ❤❤❤❤❤❤. It so nice to enjoy want God created

Hey from Georgia! Watch y'all all the time. It's like a permanent vacay y'all are on. I love the creek property!!!

[@virginiacurrey2019]

We camped with our 3 children in a much smaller tent up on a CO mountain, ate a meal, discarded the food items, turned off the Coleman lantern.. and very early morning my husband n me heard some grunting sounds out near our jeep… being real quiet, Bob carefully unzip a part of the door… oh..thank God it wasn’t a bear…. It was about 5 cows … evidently we parked on their trail. You picked a beautiful spot.. with the creek sound close by.. just hope no rain comes. Hope is very adventurous, always the first one to step up to the challenge with dad by her side. She will remember these days forever. I’m not too sure about the stove inside .. but the food looks delish! What fun!!

[@sgttombailes3380]

Guys,,, never poke holes in your steaks. Just season and rub it in. Let sit to ambient temp. Poking holes loses all your internal juices. Just sear on each side to maintain the juices. Then cook to desired preference. You'll have a much juicer steak.. I wouldn't lead you wrong. I've been cooking and grilling for 60+ years. In the Military at night I would cook steaks for my Fire Watch Crew while others were in their bunks. Of coarse we had to buy our own. Army didn't supply them. Once word was out, soldiers were volunteering for Fire Watch Duty.. LOL..

[@sunkissed5889]

Such a sweet time for a daughter and daddy ! My daddy took me and my sister so many times ! I took my boys every chance I got we would stay a week on the river ! I never forgot what he taught me , my boys now take their kids ! What a blessing DUTCH AND BRANDY ARE TO THE GIRLS ! ❤❤❤❤

[@southernguy1560]

I have to admit I haven't watched the channels much in a while. A lot of the channels turned into showing off the next expensive toy or whatever. I really enjoyed watching this video though. The way you included your kiddo and showed her kindness. It was a simple tent camping experience, learning on some things as you go. This was a great video. Could watch this kind of content everyday and can't say enough how I respect the way you set the bar high for that young lady. Showing her how a man should always treat her. I don't usually even comment on videos that often but you guys made my night with such good content.

[@countitalljoy2023]

Thank you for such a nice comment. It really means alot to read comments like this and know that someone out there enjoyed the content. I’m going to have to crash their camp out next time. They had too much fun and too much good food without me. - Brandi (Mrs Dutch)

[@southernguy1560]

@@countitalljoy2023 I don't blame you for crashing. That food did look absolutely amazing. Even the monkey bread. That made the meal what I call perfectly imperfect. Meaning, not everything had to go just perfect, for the kiddo to learn the fun things in life has hiccups and is still a great experience. Anyway, it's almost time to start tending the farm animals. Y'all have a blessed week.

I am trying to catch up on all my KZbin creator content after having neck surgery 2 weeks ago. When my daughter was little we had a truck bed camper & did a little bit of camping. We still have our Coleman Lantern & we have gone through a couple Coleman stoves over the years. Now I have a 2 man dome tent I popped up in my living room about 6 years ago for my 4 year old (@ the time) granddaughter to sleep in. We have slept in it a couple times out in my backyard as well. Now I have a hybrid travel trailer, but we still love camping. Thanks for the memories. You & Brandi are doing a great job teaching the girls to live off the land. Hope is such a daddy’s girl & loves to help her daddy. Great job, Dutch!

FYI When you put the mandtle on the lantern you tie it around the middle of the rim not above it. Sorry it didn't work for you. If you can buy a whole pump do it because there is a rubber gasket on the inside and it could be rotten. I have owned one for years. Your tent looks amazing. So glad you had a great time.

[@benjaminspencer6507]

You may know already, but on the Coleman lantern there is a cloth like washer on the pump. As old as that is, you have to replace it. They do dry out over time. I have one that belong to my dad. I had to replace it. I bought 2 or 3 of the parts a few years ago. Never know when they become unavailable. Also they make a little fan to sit on the stove. It runs off of the heat from the stove, if you don't know.

[@MoneypitHomestead]

Thanks for this video, Dutch. I like the setup you have. The tent is great, and mom and dad had a big tent when we went camping. We never had one with a stove in it. It is cool to sleep in a tent and stay warm even though someone must keep putting wood in it all night. I have camped in several states, but the coolest place I ever camped was in the mountains outside Cimarron, New Mexico, at Philmont Scout Ranch. I have a lot of great memories of camping with my family, the Boy Scouts, but mainly with my dad, and the great times we had. I know that your family will never forget the times you all have done special things together. Anyway, until next time, may God bless your days the way He always blesses ours! Donald

It's always been a dream of mine. I looked at property over the years now it's too late in my life but you and your family live your dream now while you can. That's why I suggested a cabin built with your trees and a stone fireplace with stone from your land. The mantle pick a hunk of tree that would be awesome for that. Then in later years it's done and you can enjoy being out of the weather in your cabin in the woods.

That creek is flowing fast--such a beautiful spot. Nice tent. What fun adventure for Hope and you. Memories that will mean so much for both of you. Making me hungry for all that good food!

Glad you and Hope had a good time camping. Your dinner looked delicious. GOD bless y'all.

You both looked like you were having a good time. I love camping and always have. I'm 70 years old and I still do tent camping. It's the only way to camp
