Wyoming has been home now for over a month now, and we've really settled into the perfect place for our ideal life in a van & a bus. And more importantly, for the dogs.

[@paige_n_neri]

Newsletter sounds great!

[@wowyouaretoobeautiful1446]

🤩🤩Wow!!! You are more beautiful than the most lovely rose And more sweet than honey and more precious than gold You are more precious than everything that exists in this world 😍😍😍 A beauty queen whom I never ever seen any one as beautiful as her before and may never ever in my whole entire life will see anyone as beautiful as her-meaning you-at all.. 😍😍 WoW!!! you are a lovely butterfly and a beautiful rose you are the diamond and the pure gold you are the lovely moon in our nights you are the radiant sun shining soo bright loving you is sooo sweet its the most enjoyable thing for you are the paradise for the heart and soul and mind Everything about you is sooo unique and attracts the eyes and captivates the mind God surely perfected you so glorified is he whom made you too beautiful and made you soo smart 🌷😘 😍😍 you are too beautiful!! whomever see you should believe that God is true & real.. and whenever I see you I feel like Iam in a dream, And when we wake up we will all realize that all this life was nothing but a dream and that only God is whats true and real.. There was a teacher whom didn't believe in the existence of God, one day he asked his students, do you see God? the students then replied no we don't see God, so the teacher said if you don't see God it means there is no God. then a smart student stood up and said to the other students hey guys can you see the teachers brain? then the students answered no we don't see the teachers brain, the student then said the teacher then is crazy, he has no brain :0) The universe science says was not always there, it had a beginning point, the big bang, meaning it was begun/initiated in other words created, thus there should be a creator, there must be a God. One God for all of us he created us all and can revive us again, God initiated everything, & he repeat/redo things too, & thats clear, we see many cycles of different things in life, also in summer for example the desert land becomes like empty and is filled with only sand, and when rain falls in abundance in spring or winter, after that small flowers & wild plants grow again, also, we see how humans and animals grow and how their body is formed from the elements which were in the sand which plants feed on which they eat, and after they die they go to the sand and their atoms/elements are taken by plants which humans & animals eat and their bodies grow from those atoms & elements found in the sand which came from previous humans & animals which died before, so God can bring us again after we die even if our atoms became in the sand he can make us from the same atoms we were made of or from other atoms if he want or make us be in a spirit form or like ghosts, any ways, everything in this life is recycled, learn if you want about the different cycles in life in nature, the food cycle or food chain, the water cycle, even the gas cycle that makes the air the oxygen &carbon dioxide &nitrogen cycles, even the energy is like recycled but only changes from form to another form. Anyways, God created this life but it's only a temporary sample/an example of a coming everlasting one which could be either in heaven paradise or in hell. If we try to be good humans in life, and try to obey God and his messengers-including the final messenger for all humanity the prophet Mohammed- and those whom rightly represent them, for example imam Ali & ahlulbayt the family/good descendants of the prophet mohammed, then we will all go to heaven/paradise, if not then we will go to hell fire and burn in it forever. keep shining sunshine &spread the light

[@archie-dl1dl]

a luv slap🤣😍😍🥰😘

[@mistysedillo1696]

Love how the dogs love each other ❤

[@Linneaandakela]

Me too, I could watch them all day!

[@chrisallison9526]

The quieter you become the more you can hear

[@IlsasAdventures]

Y'all are so much fun. Love watching the pups play, the fishing & candid shots. SO funny.😂😂😂

[@EvaTentous]

Your chemistry with Chris is admirable. It makes me happy to see you (and you both) happy in your life.

[@lillyjohnson3595]

I can't wait to show my daughter this video. She is 12 and scared of her own independence. She is going to love your energy and fierce adventure mentality. Love you!

[@AlarmingExit]

Probably because she’s only 12

[@poeslanding]

Wood pellets, for horse bedding is the best thing to use for compost. With regards to smell and everything else. Once they get damp, it turns to dust and you get the wood smell. And then you can bury that with the compost. It’s also inexpensive.

[@karenb1627]

I Just want to know...does Chris laugh more since he met You? You're genuinely happy and I bet your laughter is contagious. The fisherman friend was equally excited as you are when fishing. Great video. ☮💜 Think like a fish.

[@omavicmcmurray2893]

Akela and Kobuck living on the road as a couple, woof! Yep! They know how it’s done. Always safe. Always, or you’ll hear about it, a loud Yap stops the play in its tracks! Regrouping. Taking turns in the dance of life, submissive v dominance. Its all about respect, woof! That’s it. That’s how they are the perfect couple, being safe and showing respect. Nothing more, nothing less. But so much f…..g life in between! So much magnificence, its actually actually majestic! ~Life in between the romps. If ya wanna know how to be a couple, just look at the dogs. Congrats on your first brown and the mysterious fish whisperer on the river. Life is an unfolding story and I am grateful you share yours!

[@granddpa]

Boy would I love your life at 78 and have been always active now been in a wheelchair from a stroke now as close to this life is you so keep posting so please keep it up

[@Terrilyn_Austen]

I know I put my coffee grounds in my composter for the garden. Very high in nutients. Another thing I use (not sure how it would work on a composting toilet) is stall pellets. You can get them at farming stores. They use them in horse stalls to absorb urine and they are made out of pine. So every so ofter I will throw in a small coffee can in to the composter and it works amazing to keep the moisture and smell down. I think it is so cute every time you scream Akela is righ there lol!

[@LimeRickey71]

So happy you got the brown! I hollered out OH LINNEA when you missed the big one LOL. Chris is such a brat haha. Love watching you guys every week.

[@Linneaandakela]

Hahaha thanks so much! ♥️

[@SpknTC13]

Yay! That was so awesome seeing some brown trout! Chris you better be careful. Linnea's going to get you when you least expect it LoL!! Love the pups! Cheers! ~M

[@leslovesliberty1776]

Watching Akela & Kobuck play is almost as much fun as you & Chris together!! Definitely a 2-way match made in heaven. 🙏😊💕💕🌿

[@stevenbaxter5601]

I'm happy you and Chris get along well. Before, I would worry a bit about your safety. Be safe. Continue to enjoy and share, for the ones of us who can't. Great video!

[@maryantosz6195]

You young lady have a gift! The way you put your videos together is amazing! I love seeing your fur babies so much! Thank you! ♥️

[@janedoremus8894]

You two are just what relationships should be! Thanks for letting us share!!!!

[@shirlywilson4287]

Great seeing you guys having so much fun!!👍

[@MannyWC]

I do use my coffee grounds in my separett toilet. But the best is the kitty litter pine pellets with baking soda (that is in the pellets)-absolutely NO smell!

[@krismaki757]

I love seeing all the beautiful mountains, forests, and rivers/brooks. It looks like the perfect way of life.

[@michellet1287]

Can’t tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos!! Yaw inspire me😊!

[@jhaenke]

My heart smiles every time you post 🥰 Thank~you your videos are perfection❣️

You two are adorable. Love that your dogs now have each other. Loved the hair washing. Lol. What a sweetheart you've found! Yaaaaay

[@Steffgmtb]

[@TheMrsKKB]

Your videos put the biggest smile on my face 😁 thank you for sharing!! 💚

[@SickSea]

These videos just bring me so much joy ❤

[@BuiltToScale]

Awww, dang... you guys inspire me SO MUCH. I don't know exactly why, but this video gave me the excitement and confidence to finally pursue my dream of living on the road. I've already been living minimally for years, but I've been nervous about taking my dog out on the road. LOVE your channel ❤

[@kristinsevert4039]

The dogs galloping through the tall grass was so adorable! Now those are some happy dogs.

[@mezanian]

What a great dichotomy, that generator and your laughter. 😅😊❤ hey Chris 👋

[@Pomplun55]

I seriously think about you every time I watch Alone! I am like, Linnea could totally win this!

[@Linneaandakela]

Haha that is such a huge compliment, thank you! Although I’m not too sure I’m quite tough enough for that much cold!

[@saram1447]

[@msvg3]

Akeela wanted to get her first brown, too! You are radiant with joy since getting back out into the wild. And Chris probably has something to do with it, too? ✌️❤️🎣

[@BuzzsawBrent]

I love the look on your face when you’re holding the brown trout.😁😍🐟🎣

[@isabel03711]

So amazing you found someone so suited for you! Right down to the dogs!

[@Linneaandakela]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

[@SadieRTrego]

Thanks for another awesome adventure, 🎉 and yey on carch your first brown trout 🎣 awesome oxo

[@ann66pearson4]

Great video. Made me laugh. So happy you caught your first brown trout!

[@Travelingboutz]

Not all the way into watching your video but wanted to comment on using coffee instead of coir before I forget lol! As someone who's into mycology, coffee has a tendency to speed up bacteria & fungal growth as it has nutritional value. I'd assume its great for composting in a general sense, but with that knowledge, it might also speed up the frequency needed in changing the compost in a toilet situation.. as fungal and/or bacterial growth could expedite and cause unwanted smells, gases or moisture changes. Coir on the other hand isnt nutrient dense, and acts more like a substrate that helps distribute and equalize moisture. If you wanna experiment for the the rest of us coffee drinking, compost users, I would love to hear the end result lol! Side note: love your channel & gram and hope to meet you and Chris on the road one day!

[@melissag7071]

On a serious note.. You are amazing, all of you! I love seeing you both have so much fun and the smiles on your face. ( It makes my soul so happy.) I always look forward to your content. Keep on keeping on. ❤👍🏼🙏

[@Shado_wolf]

Lol I love watching dogs bound through long grass 😅 I call my two "land dolphins" when they do that.

[@quash8]

Yes, film projects! Been expecting something like this.

[@GrahamNessPasyer]

Get him Linnea!! So happy you caught your 1st BROWN TROUT!!

[@Linneaandakela]

Thank you I’m so stoked too!!!

[@lisamillard1272]

Just wanted say I love ❤️ you guys are always praying for nomadic safety upon your travels..

[@andreaewert7204]

Congratulations on catching your first brown trout!👏👏❤️ Small Brown's are what my friends and I have been catching on the Pecos River here in NM after the devastating fire and slurry dam break last summer. We are soooo happy that there is life still in the river!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@paige_n_neri]

Congrats on the brown trout! I'm loving yours videos with fly fishing. Learning lots. Slowly getting my fishing gear. Fly rod and flies next up! ❤

[@AlyssaAllDayVlogs]

Alone is the greatest show of all time!

[@TWEnglish100]

Love watching your adventures.

[@bobertforher]

Ok I am a sucker for the dogs and I love watching them❤. When Linnea was shooting I am like where are the dogs🤦🏻‍♀️. I know they are safe but I still worry about the pups. Congratulations on the brown trout!! That is so awesome 👏! Already cannot wait until next week. I start my Monday mornings with Linnea and the crew😂❤

[@jimmymalone3494]

Awesome video Linnea I enjoyed it very much.Good luck on fishing and i hope you two have a great week.

[@deannaseaman8600]

Your videos make me so happy! Keep doing what yall do!!❤

[@Travelincloud]

Congratulations on landing your first Brown! I wish you luck when you take Togo into the shop. ❤

[@janeenslider6466]

Your six day adventure was absolutely enthralling

[@user-kev-k5v]

Yes I watched that video it was fantastic thanks so much ❤

[@beverlywick7062]

Love the 4 of you together!! I think you should do a blooper video, love how you end your videos!!

[@dawngrey259]

I have fished since I was a child-could catch, clean, and cook my catch since I was 12, But I have never fly fished. It looks so fun (better than watching a bobber😆). And it sure looks enjoyable watching you. Keep smilin’.😁

[@marirose19]

I love you all so much. Congrats, Linnea, on catching your 1st brown trout🥳 Aren't those generators obnoxious?!? I'll take Kobes & Akela wrestling while you & Chris kiss, hug, & laugh w/your solar nearby any day over those generators. This channel & Chris' as well as your other social media are addicting & bring me so much joy. TYSM!!💛 Those mountain views were stunning btw. Remind me so much of The White Mountains here in NH about 2 hours away from me. Can't get enough of them. Hey, Linnea, I can't recall where you said it but you mentioned you'd never buy a Promaster again. Can you say more about that? I know you've been having a lot of problems but that can happen w/any rig, can't it? Be well. See you soon. And Chris, stop spanking Linnea in the butt so hard. I know from experience how much that can hurt & startle someone too. A sweet spank but not full on dude!😜

[@jennyfulcher8035]

Congrats Linnea on catching your first brown trout! That was awesome! I've never done fly fishing and rarely caught anything with a standard rod and reel years ago when I was living as a art student in Austin, TX. All I caught were perch, but that thrilled me too. I'm sure it was especially tasty! And the man you met seemed like a great guy too. 🐟🐟🐟

[@jasonsuggs111]

Redneck mechanic here, not sure what your electrical problem is, but I've never encountered an intermittent electrical issue that wasn't something loose on the grounding side. I recommend looking up common grounding points and making sure they're secure and then tracing wires back etc. Happy to discuss further if you'd like.

[@HeavenlyMama1]

I love to see you and Chris together. You guys are so cute together. I think Chris is soooo handsome. Congrats on your brown trout!

[@LemonAndBeanCo]

I have always loved to fish but never really knew what I was doing 😂 So thank you for encouraging me to learn more and to read! You and Chris are truly inspiring ❤

[@Christoph.403]

I fly fish just like you do!! More missed strikes than actual catches!! ❤

[@genetoler2207]

Well it was very nice to meet you two and spend a few hours fishing with you guys ,I was hoping to get a half day or more on the water with you ,but with you working so much to keep us all updated on van life ,I think you could be a great fisher man if I had more time to share things it has taken me I lifetime to learn ,anyway God bless and keep me posted on where your going next ,good fishing too. Gene Toler

[@Meghanandmatt]

We tried the coffee in the toilet. Too much moisture, it was yucky lol. Maybe if you put it out in the sun to dry then throw them in!

[@Jojok103]

I think the trout in Connecticut are much bigger! I am so happy for you though! Nice video, honestly they are all good whether you structure them or just be your relaxed selves. Thanks for sharing!

[@iamsuperlious]

Another great video! I just watched last weeks right before this one and it was incredible. Todays was a great source of laughter 😊

[@Linneaandakela]

Thank you!! 💛 happy to make ya laugh :)

[@jamielatham5422]

[@drayad2]

[@pursang0904]

OMG in your bloopers Chris hitting your butt cracked me up as my brother loves to do that too! 🙃🙂 he said it is irresistible with butt right there….

[@marydurgin5654]

Love the brown trout!

[@TheBrianRaglandChannel]

Wow, another great video. I am becoming hooked on your content, I have to tell you.🤩

[@SolsticeOnAnOdyssey]

I'm totally going to try the coffee grounds too. oh my gosh brilliant idea

[@CharleneHales]

A beautiful family ❤️

[@cathywarriner]

I love the way Chris makes you laugh 😅❤

[@stancherry4716]

Love watching you two.congrats on your first brown

[@rhondakirsch5910]

I've used fungus (mushroom spore) inoculated coffee grounds. And it definitely helps. Just drop some mushroom in there once in a while.

[@user-kev-k5v]

As I watched you catch your first brown trout and then it gave you the slip interesting to see and now today you catch one I bet your face is beaming today girl ❤

[@Lonnwriting]

My 2008 dodge caravan hadal a code saying cylinder 2 fuel injector issue, which coincided with a miss in the engine. It never got fixed and works smooth and strong now. May your van do the same fix itself. yIPPIE

[@shannonm2689]

Love all your videos you all make the adventures from Ontario Canada

[@msworkinitout]

I’m loving these videos 🎉❤

[@marymactavish]

I've been drinking french press coffee for 30 years, but now I have two unbreakable French press pots because when I camp with friends, my spot smells best, and people ask me for coffee. Getting two pots means I don't have to sit and make other people coffee all morning-just half of it.

[@BuiltToScale]

The booty smack cracked me up !! 😂 A guy just can't help himself. LOL

[@dorothymctee5626]

Great catch yayyyyyyyyyy

[@edm5356]

Congrats on the brown! Thanks for the video

[@VoodouFairy]

my pet peeve is the sound of generators when out camping... all day and alllll night.

[@DonaldReynoldsII]

Thank you!

[@CraftsandMorewithDonnaJackson]

This was a fun video. I enjoy seeing the playful side of you guys. I really would like to learn how to fly fish. I've only done it once visiting friends in Winnipeg Canada. To say the least I was not very good at it. LoL. Hope the mysterious van problem gets fixed soon. Have a great week. ❤

[@mariepalkiewicz852]

Great video!

[@mattcook5302]

I love you guys!

[@TomboiTravels]

Linnea, sis, anyone who considers composting coffee-flavoured poo can tolerate a LITTLE spankin' (all within your boundaries) 💚💚💚 Btw, I also use coconut coir as a friend to my waste...lovely. I dont hydrate it though...Nature does that 😉

[@venusbucci4829]

I loved that video

[@joeyalfano2096]

We love Chris!! 😂 ☕
