Herbal Tea and Stonehenge? Boondocking Washington State

[@petermclennan6781]

The "plink, plink plink" of the rose hips going into the cup is pure music.

[@mortenthenorwegian2875]

One thing is for sure: Beautiful things become more beautiful when shared. Thanks again for a great video.

[@mortenthenorwegian2875]

@@donnygrande3662 Hi! Nice to hear from you. I live 60 km from Bygdøy. So i have been there many times. But never visit Canada, but for sure i have water to go there. Seattle it's the nearest place i have been. Namaste

[@mortenthenorwegian2875]

@@donnygrande3662 Very nice to hear about your memory and thank you for shearing this with me. If you find a nice video about Ottawa or near where you liv, please send me a link. I can sen you a narrow road movie from wester Norway. Peace

[@voidex136]

This channel brings such peace and calmness. All those beautiful views of nature in pairs with really good narration brings amazing feelings. Marvelous jewel in endless youtube mess ;) ps. I feel sorry for people living in big cities, participating in rat race, always in hurry and trying to chase their happiness by purchasing everything with hard earned money and by showing in social networks how successful and good they are.

[@JurgensJourneys]

You can't beat the beauty and splendor of nature. This man does a wonderful job of keeping it crystal clear and marvelously simple. Slim has a special way with a camera and with words that very few channels have. You are right.

[@williamguildner7988]

This is a perfect video. Scenery, education, beautiful night skies, and enjoying a simple pleasure of home made tea.

[@thumpicker]

Whenever I listen to your videos another narrator comes to mind, Tom Bodett. I almost expect you to end with " We'll leave the light on for you". Great peaceful video as always.

[@faithrada]

Watching those stars just spinning in the sky... blew me away!🌠

[@vt1398]

Good morning, Thank you very much for another great video!!!!!!!! Looking forward for next one.

[@andygazi]

Thanks Slim. I'm from Washington State and never knew about this. I will have to take a trip on down.

[@lindahenderson840]

Yet again "Pure Class" Slim "Pure Class" Thanks :)

[@JackieL7474]

This came at the best time! Your wonderful video and my morning coffee! You are my favorite!

[@underthecarolinasky2363]

I love traveling with you Slim! Reminds me of growing up when my folks watched "On The Road with Charles Kuralt". I was always amazed at the things that were so close but yet so far across the country. My father was an explorer and nature lover. It has never left my soul and I carry the torch now! Thanks again, Mike

[@joharmon2148]

Snow! I always enjoy your videos first thing in the morning with my coffee or anytime one pops up.

[@debbiea6782]

You seriously have the best videos! Little this, little that. Love them. Thanks Slim!

[@GaryGreenway]

I really enjoyed the photography on this one.

[@brighton_dude]

I'm in Europe and you are my favourite North American KZbinr Slim! That was such an enjoyable videos as always.

[@hyker8787]

I love your videos for many reasons, but the fact that you are an original tops the list. You motivate me to not only continue to explore the natural beauty around us, but to follow my own trail rather than follow the sheep. Keep 'em coming, SP, and keep on hyking!

[@lynnepierce3676]

Always enjoy your videos. Beautiful photos/videography and interesting narratives and content.👍😊. Keep those adventures coming 😊😊

[@restlesshomebody]

Welcome to Oregon, Slim! I hope you went to the Mary Hill museum while you were there. It's a wonderful collection and in such an unusual place! It's often VERY windy along the gorge so batten down your hatches!

[@lomicwind]

wow that night sky !! I even swa a galaxy, incredible :)

[@herblapp]

Slim on your star video sections, what exposures are the camera set for in time shutter is open & time between shots. Tnx

[@909lilac]

Your videos just keep getting better and better. Thanks for sharing your travels with us.

[@stephenfleming7918]

Another great video slim. I constantly gain more respect for your videography.

[@janicem4382]

Again, this was interesting, informative, fun and beautiful. I have seen wild rose buds and wanted to make tea. I didn’t know it could be this easy. Two boon docking sites close to home (BC) and a vision of what Stonehenge would have looked like in it’s entirety. Thanks to the soldiers❤️.

[@anitamitchell3452]

Wonderful video, this one is going on my bucket list for sure. It was nice seeing the snow but I'm pretty sure I'd be out of there too. PS ... LOVED the tree you parked under, perfect for Halloween time. Take care and thanks for all the fall colors.

[@lianewton7514]

Absolutely enjoy your uploads. Fun, informative, and great visuals.

[@rer906]

I have to compliment you. I love how you tell your stories. Positive thoughts going your way. Best of luck and wish you the best

[@davidneilson3508]

Absolutely amazing Slim thank you for bringing us along 👍👍😊

[@ftkinsella]

Always enjoy your videos Slim. Would love to see a video from a dark sky reserve. Safe travels Slim. Cheers!!!

[@cavebearmama]

Thank you for giving Washington State some love. I live in Southwest Washington in Little town called Winlock, about 3 miles west of I-5. You Sir , are living the dream. I wish you many happy trails. 🙏💗🏕

[@cherriemckinstry131]

Loved watching you forage and make tea. Ive done this with enjoyment too. Then touching on things like the stone henge monument was very interesting too. The blue enameled pot was a treat to see as i used to have a camp coffee pot like that.

[@wvevie7612]

Great, soothing video. Thanks.

[@This.Here.Channel]

I've driven through the gorge hundreds of times in my life (I live in Portland), and the Stonehenge is one of my favorite stopping points. Hopefully you get to explore more of Oregon.

[@merlin1477024]

Another great video with history added. I found myself looking for "Easter Eggs" in the opening minutes, but got over it. Great astrophotography. Thanks, Slim!

[@raccoonlittlebear6476]

Excellent as always! The best channel out there. My best friend was influenced by you, and is now camping in his own "A" frame at Red River N.M.

[@uweschroeder]

"The matured fruit of the wild rose..." - nice prose for rosehips. Yes, they make great tea but even better jam. For the kids: dry the seeds and shove them under that class bullies shirt - makes for a real itchy day - LOL. I had to collect tons of those as a kid to make jam for the winter., but then back in the day they grew plentiful in the hedges between fields (yes, the hedges long since gone due to industrialized agriculture). As usual an excellent video.

[@kellyb5980]

I just love the Columbia River Gorge but I’ve never seen the World War I memorial. Thanks for sharing!

[@gloria5873]

Another great video! I enjoyed seeing it as well as all your other fantastic videos.

Excellent timelapse of the stars Slim! Cheers, Steve

[@wanderingtraveler1233]

My favorite part of Oregon is in the Blue Mountains near a town called Enterprise. Was last there about 40 years ago and hope to make it back there again next summer. Thanks for reminding me of what I am missing. Have a safe trip

[@BsoluteZero]

Can't believe you made it to my great state of Washington, more surprised you made it to our Stonehenge, and most surprised you did at the exact time we were having one of the rarest snows that I can remember (in my 45yrs.) snow in September. Love the show, keep em coming!

[@markd.9596]

Amazing stars Slim!! Every time I go off the light pollution map to pick out a campsite, it seems I luck out with cloudy weather

[@pauljean-pierre7254]

I truly love your videos there was a time in my life I travel backroad of America which is truly beautiful would love to start fresh with a Camper like yours maybe one day God will grant me one thx for posting!!

[@chrislonsberry4571]

Thanks for another wonderful video! Very interesting about the Stonehenge replica. Didn’t know the back story about it.

You eat a lot of carbs dude. You must have an Indy race car metabolism. Love the video's very relaxing.

Going through a boring Winter right now, on the East coast, but I'm living vicariously through Slim's videos.

Slim you make me wish and hope i can be as free as you are one day. Been a subscriber since 8000 subscribers and its been an awesome journey. Love to see the #s climb and see the people appreciate what you do

Hi tnxjesus. The numbers don't mean much, it's the people that watch my videos that matter. Always gives me a boost when they show their appreciation. Thanks! SP

[@tnxjesus]

@@SlimPotatohead reasons like that. (The comment you sent me) is exactly why youre so appreciated. I was wondering if you had any plans to boondock the upper peninsula of michigan one day. That is a video i hope to one day see.

[@SlimPotatohead]

Definitely. Most of the Northeast (yes to me Michigan is east) is an untapped camping resource for my trailer. Thanks! SP

Love the vids slim.... I live literally 15 mins from stone henge... and you can wild camp ( that’s what we call boon dock) about 500 yards from it!

[@vanlifethetravelinfranksho5611]

Man, I love watching your vids Slim. So professional looking. Great stuff!

[@noahcount7132]

Thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the Stonehenge Memorial at Maryhill, Washington, and the fall colors featured in this video. Beyond the enjoyable viewer-oriented content of your presentations, Slim, it is rewarding to observe the relationship between you and Abner. He provides privacy, comfort, and protection from the elements in return for your expenditure of time, energy, effort, and funds to maintain and sometimes improve his physical condition. Well done!

[@leedanielson7452]

Excellent video Slim! Thanks!

[@peacefulwife5199]

Slim, you say the cutest things. When I make tea it "steeps", you said "seeps". I giggled. That tea sure smelled good from here. 👍👍

[@alanjackson4646]

Just wonderful. Many thanks, AJ

[@Tuckerclan]

Actually the WWI memorial in Kansas City Mo. broke ground in 1921 and was finished Nov. 11 1926, 3 years earlier. I absolutely LOVE all your videos, Slim. This one is right up there.

[@SlimPotatohead]

The alter was finished in 1918 I believe. SP

[@jimmyjenkins9240]

Well done, as always! Enjoyed the opening music and when you started your narrative, I thought you were going to sing it!

Good idea to get in car and get warmed up. Hey thanks for sharing.

Beautiful scenery !!! Especially the night sky!!!!!! Love herbal teas with rose hips in it .. never had fresh rose hips ..... that & the info on the Stonehenge was very interesting! Thanks 4 sharing ! 😊

[@wanderinmoose5534]

Simply, just another beautiful video !! Thank you Slim....

[@wunderlichD]

That rosehip asmr. The satisfying snap of the pull and the tinny clink when the bud hits the cup.

[@markhosbach9420]

Thank You Slim. Your talents for videography and story telling make your Monday video postings "can't miss" events.

[@stilltlrforlife]

[@mi88sunshine]

Great video of my adopted state. I will need to check this out.

[@azclaimjumper]

I've read & "liked" many of the replies, prior to mine. I especially like you saying the names of shrubs/trees/vegetation you see, are around, & photographing. I have the same blue speckled pot & think I'm noticing you wearing a new jacket. I've never thought to add Avacado to noodle soup, will have to try it. I often add chopped up baby spinach to chicken noodle soup. I would have used a rope & a trucker's hitch in lieu of those tie-down straps. You do know how to tie a trucker's hitch, don't you? Each time I see you towing your ALiner I think of that Dexter 3,500# torsion bar axle I remember you having installed as a replacement axle. The starry night sky is crystal clear & part of what makes your videos so enjoyable.

[@maryvought8495]

I could almost taste that tea! Beautiful photography and video. Thank you!

[@thinkinoutloud.1]

Such a cute little trailer. The way you sip your tea makes it sound yummy too.

[@oceanbrzzz]

Oh my. I lived in WA for 11 years and NEVER knew about this Stonehenge replica. Amazing. Thanks for yet another history (and geography) lesson, SP! 👍👍. (I added an avocado to my lunch soup today, it tastes great).

[@oldmaninthemirror]

I never would have thought to cook avocado like that but will give it a try..

[@kenliu808]

Way to go! Try it before you knock it.

[@debra-vs]

I love this. The Stonehenge replica and the rose hip tea were a fun touch. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work.

[@davidmerzig6196]

Wow, Slim! Best video yet from the perspective of those of us who get to travel along vicariously with you. I never thought I would ever see both barges and rose hips, shooting stars and Stonehenge, all in one episode. I even have a new recipe for ramen and avocado soup! Thanks for this one.

[@covfevegrins9764]

You always make the most beautiful videos. Heard a lot about this area as I worked on my friend Dennis's family tree. It is a true pleasure to actually get to see it. Thank you.

[@l.w.lavelle9724]

You are a true Artist..and story teller. Beautiful composition and content. L.W.

[@Hefmier]

Welcome to my neck of the woods, Slim. I live only a couple of hours west of Stonehenge. We had a total solar eclipse here, in 79', and that place drew a lot of people, when it happened. I still remember watching about it, on TV. By the way, Sam Hill is also responsible for the Peace Arch at the US-Canadian Border, at Blaine, Washington and White Rock, British Columbia.

[@azclaimjumper]

Interesting

You do a great job Slim on your videos , There very informant with the ease and relaxation of a PBS show ... There's not much on TV this days that don't make you feel uptight after watch... Keep up the great job ... Thanks

I always smile when I watch your videos. It is amazing how wonderful it is to be able to virtually hang out with you on these trips. Interesting to learn about rose hips. Never seen them like that, in nature. Could almost smell the aroma by your description. Those stars were spellbinding to see. Wow Stonehenge..cool. Haha. Sam Hill... Amazing to learn. Such an awesome memorial!! You are a fascinating person, Slim. Until next time...

[@maxboonkittypoison]

Oh great video again. And the DIY thee is super. Greetings,, Kitty.

[@kathyowens9901]

That was an awesome video, lovely views of the river.Thank you for taking us with you

[@karenqueen4706]

I loved the parade of stars , rosehip foraging, and the Stonehenge Memorial. A simply wonderfully Majestic video. Do you ever have some hot chocolate every now , and then. You should try some after a long hike , or just after it snows. It does wonders for morale. Plus, it fortifies the blood, and makes you feel warm all over.

[@chaosncheckt9356]

Another excellent video Slim. Beautiful scenery and you can't beat your photography. Those berries are liked by a number of wild animals, to include bears. I see you didn't have your trusty bear spray canister with you. We like to pack a variety of freeze dry hiker meals for those rainy and miserable days. Really like that directional antenna arrangement, but given we have space limitations as well, we might opt for the flat antenna - make it easier to pack. Stay safe
