I bought a New Tent & Used it in a Thunder Storm

When i first saw this tent, I had to get it. I took it out for a solo overnighter, some camp fire cooking and a Thunder Storm, How did we do?

So relaxing to watch. I grew up raised by a single mom. We almost no money for extra anything. Camping is how we spent vacations. Tent camping, just me and my mom and my little dog in the primitive area of state park campgrounds. The wonder of an 11 year old from the hot and humid south, waking up to find snow covering our tent in the mountains, or a campfire to enjoy in the evening. Great childhood memories. And as a mental health nurse with many other life stressors, this is a welcome, calming reprieve. From the lovely areas, the different tents and gear I don’t have to purchase/store, watching the campfire and cooking, and your very soothing manner and calming voice, I enjoy every bit of the videos. Except that they end! Thank you for sharing.

That cot is wonderful. No attaching legs for days. This is a proper camp. I feel better when you don't work so hard. My husband says campers spend hundreds of dollars to live like a homeless person for a night or two. This camp is not like that at all. You deserve a little comfort. Although, if you eat 2 slabs of ribs and drink 12 beers, you won't care whether you are at camp or the Ritz. Wish I was there!

[@carljansen3118]

Lol hilariously accurate ✌🏻

[@garytrainer1690]

Yes! Lol! 12 beers and 2 slabs of ribs is as "ritzy" as I ever need to be. 😁😉👍

[@jeromethiel4323]

Drinking beer and eating food you cooked on a fire is it's own special thing. And when it's done, sleeping in a tent is some of the most restful sleep i have ever had. Can't do it anymore, but i do miss it from time to time. Have to satisfy myself with simply drinking the 12 beers and calling it a night! ^-^

[@lethaleefox6017]

Nice camp after the last one... like the way the cot set up...I have also liked the multiple leg one... but I sleep well in my folding recliner...your firepit has been doing well... I will still stick with my Solo Stoves Ranger with accessories... almost did a firepit cook out today, but I had 36 foot planter project rebuild to work on today. Just a little too tired to griddle hot dogs or the chicken I have lined up for firepiting the Lodge griddle on the cooking riser for the firepit... I have some other cast iron to test on that riser... Lodge has some interesting frying pans that if you buy 2, one can serve as a lid for the other.

Andy, you're a lovely man. You've been able to reach out and connect with just a 🤏 under 700,000 other people, and that's just counting those who are subscribers, so you connect with millions I'm sure. You've become a friend to many of us, even though we're from all around the world, I myself am watching from the beautiful province of Manitoba, located on the Great Canadian Prairie( Springtime snake orgy anyone?). I'm often housebound due to poor health, or the weather, so watching you out in the woodlands, chopping wood, cooking and eating yummy food, and sleeping in the freah air, is a great deal of fun for me, and as close to going camping as I will ever get to experience again in this lifetime. Thank-you Andy, you're a peach! ✌️& 🫶 from 🇨🇦

The camera shots / filming is amazing/ interesting and the editing is smooth and appealing. I really feel like I am there camping.

Your personality is relatable and genuine. I get sad when the videos are over lol , because I enjoy them all so much ❤😊 I don't want them to end😁 Thanks for your time and sharing your videos. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

That tent has such a retro look about it, they used to be orange but had the same design, all that was missing was the hissing of the Tilley lamps. Spent holidays with the parents in it through the 70's........😀😀

Great footage of that amazing storm Andy. I absolutely love thunderstorms. I lived in a small village with 2 major rivers in the distance. You could watch the storms tracking the rivers. The Nene and the Old Bedford. Your so humble Andy, there's no sign of being pretentious. Quite the reverse. Your vuds are always interesting with lots of humor and laughter. Thank you for being you and sharing your experiences with us all.

[@Feribrat99]

If you roll up the opening covers towards the underside then you will not collect water in them to leak into the tent when it pours. Especially the window ones.

@@Evasapprentice He's authentic and I didn't say he wasn't authentic he's just not got an upbeat voice and always sounds miserable. Andy always greets his viewers with a nice smile and he seems happy . I feel depressed watching Mark and have to switch to another channel. There's another guy in Canada who ALWAYS ALWAYS goes on about the temperature and has some gadget he always puts outside to gauge how cold it is. Some outdoor vlogs are annoying but Andrews is uplifting. A friend is looking to buy a secondhand lightweight 1 man tent for hiking in Scotland so I recommended the 1 Andy used ( £49) and he watched the video and subscribed. I think he's hooked. He didn't know about outdoor camping vlogs. 😄 Thanks Andy.

[@garytrainer1690]

Top-notch as always. My favorite camper from across the pond. 👍👍

[@azulzin2935]

I have the same tent...great build but weak on heavy rain. Surface waterproofing is good, but when heavy rain pouring out. Mass amount of water drop directly near the tent edges makes a large pool of water below and slowly absorbed inside. Recommended to have 1 flysheet to divert the water flow a bit far so the water got plenty time absorbed to the ground

[@amyhudson1016]

I really appreciate you showing the terrain as you drive into camp ❤❤. Lots more effort to do this but I feel like I’m right there with you. Thank you

Looks similar to the tent, if not exactly the same, which Lonewolf Luke showcased yesterday (if I recall correctly). He seemed to pretty impressed with it at first glance.

[@jennifermarengo]

Andy, I’ve been under a lot of stress lately with my mom’s health issues and now my own, so watching your videos has helped me stay calm and grounded. Now that my mom is home from the nursing facility, I’ve got her watching your videos, too. Thank you for including so much of the foliage and countryside! We live in the desert in California and seeing the beautiful greenery is so refreshing. I just bought a KentSurvival t-shirt to show my support. ❤

[@petuniab.222]

You know ..I could actually just live in that tent ...in that kind of spot. With no one to stress me out. It's my dream to buy an RV and sell everything else. So me and my hubby can go to places like this and just relax for once.

Precious memories 😊 awesome video.

Great set up and comfortable with good food beer and proper bedding. Love the set up that nissan is definitely the best bus for the job. I do the same however on a Motorbike it's a bit scaled down.

Hello from 🇨🇦

[@cybernode33]

As an avid camper and outdoor enthusiast, I was previously a Traeger user but recently made the switch to Asmoke. I was attracted by the convenience and technology Asmoke offers. The digital controller provides precise temperature control which was a game-changer for me. The food comes out perfectly cooked every time. The battery-powered feature is also great for my camping trips, offering up to 10 hours of runtime. Plus, the wood pellets add a distinct smoky flavor to the food, which I love. I also appreciate the environmentally friendly aspect of using recycled wood materials. I've used my Asmoke grill in various settings - backyard, camping, and even road trips. It's definitely changed my outdoor cooking experience for the better. #Asmoke

For the corners you should always use elastic bands! Especially when your tent has an attached floor. If you use elastic, the floor always stay tight and under the floor more airy, so sand and other stuff won't get stuck! But the most important thing is that the corners will never taer!
