A gigantic THANK YOU for being so patient and sticking around! Our next video will not take so long to get out! We love you guys, and hope your day is going fantastic!! 🥰

Hey guys. Loved the video Mt Rainier. Just wondering what the road was like driving up to the trailhead. Great video, great scenery.

[@sandradummer4726]

Hang in there getting through whatever it is y’all are dealing with. Keep having fun on your everyday journey.

[@deannajuarez7387]

Next time you are in Seattle Public Market, take the tour of the Pike Place Public Market. It takes you thru all the secret places of the public market. It's a food tour. You get little bites of every place you stop. You will truly enjoy. We live in Bremerton.

[@akgobears]

WOW...Am 68 yrs old and live in CaIif....At age 18 i traveled to Bremerton to visit with a lady friend...We took this very same ferry from Bremerton to Seattle....Its a trip to see it still running....On a side note, while in Bremerton we went to this little road house place to see this band from Seattle the people i was with all liked and said was really good ...They werent really famous outside the area then and didnt have any albums out yet but that band ended up being HEART !!! before they had any hit songs...If your still in the area ya guys got to go visit Leavenworth...Great video material lol....Stay safe, be well

[@jstaff1152]

[@ErnestPerez-rg2uo]

Yea! Welcome back. You two have been missed.

[@earlwoolery1424]

WooHoo!!!!you guys are back!!---now to watch the vid.. Such a fun filled video!, Loved the hike to the lookout and the Chipmunk, along with the grouse "chickens" hee-hee.

[@candyclemens4432]

Chipmunk was so cute😊

[@annchargualaf4990]

I miss you guys safe travels God Bless you both its been awhile take care ❤ thank you for sharing your journey 💖 💙

[@SideTripLife]

From a fellow vlogger, REALLY appreciate all the effort you put into this. Bet it took 20+ hrs to edit alone. Great job!

[@justjordiano]

Great to see Seattle again 😊

[@jessi2913]

You both seem so centered and happy. Glad you took the break and glad you're back!

[@karlmopete]

Your video is always worth the wait.

[@patt30521111]

Thanks so much guys for sharing. I’ve really missed seeing you guys, but I understand completely. There was some really pretty scenery in that video. Thanks again.

[@esarcilla]

I’m always impressed with the editing. You do such a great job putting these videos together for us and I love your adventures!

[@jamespitts8679]

So very happy you are back an OK !

[@Carlab2pml]

This was a great video. The behind the scenes with the birds and the cute chipmunk made this so cute!! Those views were amazing!

[@BrianandAor]

Welcome back 😁 Loved this one. Really missed you guys 💕 you guys are the epitome of cuteness.😊❤

[@timfeeley714-25]

Mount Rainier has 28 major named glaciers. The bottom end of some of them like the Carbon glacier can be hiked to. The trail to the bottom of the Carbon glacier starts in the beautiful Carbon River rainforest and is well worth doing if you ever get the chance.

[@MichelleJones-p4e]

So good to see you both again! I’ve missed you both. Seeing your videos always brightens my day. ❤️🌹

[@gloriacoffey4651]

Loved the circular stars shot ❤

[@mommaj2758]

Yay you're back😊 Great video you guys! So beautiful!!!

[@paulg2132]

I'm just amazed that you guys find these amazing places. I'll credit Natalie and her research skills!

[@tompfeiffer2755]

Love ❤️ the view from the fire lookout!

[@hapnewsom9217]

so wonderful to see you in "my country" When my wife and I were first married (nearly 52 years ago) we used to ride the bremerton seattle ferry back and forth all day long, now they clear the ferry after every crossing, not nearly as much fun! Mowich lake (pronounced mow as in "ow!) is a favorite hike and tolmie peak is awesome, but there are dozens of amazing hikes in the park! I live in Tacoma worked in Olympia and after retiring worked for 15 years in Seattle for the Mariners baseball team...would have loved to point you to some great spots like Leavenworth, and the columbia gorge! Safe travels and it is GOOD to see you posting again!

[@lauraboggs4415]

Glad to see you back! Looking forward to your video next week !

[@lauridykstra8684]

I am so excited to see Natalie and Jimmy! Love your videos!

[@JimmyandNatalie]

Thanks so much!! 💚

[@user-jb7vr2uj4n]

I would just like to say, that as always it is great to see you guys! Don't ever apologize for not have something for us. We all have our lives to deal with the good and the bad. You both are so cute together and I fully enjoy your video. Keep them coming as you can. God Bless you both.

[@eve5724]

I love the editing in this video ❤ 😂 love from Vancouver island

[@Tina-cx3co]

I am such a fan of Jimmy & Natalie! I was watching tonight and thought 💭 do they make more money when we watch the entire advertisement instead of clicking “skip” … I may be the last to know this but yes they do make more money! For me it is like supporting an artist. I will let the ads run and know that in some small way I am supporting them. BTW Jimmy and Natalie do not know me. 👍

[@sheliaberry877]

I certainly enjoyed this hike with y'all!! BEAUTIFUL! FANTASTIC! WOW! 🤩😄 God Bless

[@Matt_Hatt3r]

That view at 17:12 looks like a screensaver/background from a Windows 98 computer and I LOVE it!!

[@drewbdavis1927]

Woo-Hoo!!! So refreshing to be following your journey again! You kids make each vlog fun and entertaining and not to be forgotten… educational 😀 Keep up the good work and keep having fun!!! 👍😎

[@DawnykaH]

Glad to see you guys posting again. What a stunning hike! Absolutely beautiful! Hope you are both doing well! Safe travels!

[@frandersen7]

First video, live on the peninsula, thank you for doing a fun and realistic video of Seattle abd showing both the state ferry and the fast ferry. Looking forward to more videos.

[@mikemanjo2458]

Yay!!!! So happy you're back!!! Can't wait to hear your news...I have a couple of guesses. I'm anxious to see if I'm right.❤❤❤🙏 from SC, Jane😊

[@chhook949]

Wow worth the wait awesome Vlog! Has been about 15yrs since my last visit to the area your stops brought back fun memories! Your both looking amazing! Lovely Scenery on your hike filming & editing A+! Safe Travels All The Best! Be Well Be Safe & Stay Blessed.

[@justjordiano]

The editing in this great - particularly the packing the bag segment

[@joerossiter1611]

I'm glad to see you guys back I actually missed your videos so welcome back

[@maiaohe]

Love this video. I’ve done this hike before and it never gets old. Nice job on the editing. 😊

[@TinaPittman-pf9jl]

You guys look fantastic! Whatever you are doing... keep on doing it! Natalie - your hair looks AMAZING!!! So happy to see a new video! 😁

[@laurenm8561]

This was an absolutely amazing video, one of your best! So glad I found you again. Thanks for taking us along💞

[@BobBohner4851]

You two are my young couple favorites. Take all the time you need to make the vids fun for you. That’s a win win for everyone. Luv ya.

[@louparry7721]

Hi, I haven't seen you two around in a long time. Happy to see you are doing well. Take care, and stay safe. God bless you both, your friend, Louise

[@bigeyejim]

Alright..my Algorithm changed, and I hadn't seen you guys in a while. Great video. Great to see you both. Great to see that you're having fun, being dorky and goofy (that is a great compliment btw) and living the dream!! Cheers my friends.

[@teresadofredo9908]

Oh no guys. I hate to be the bearer of bad news........your gum has been cleaned from the wall 😅😅😅😅😅😅. They are steam cleaning it today 😢. So glad you both had a great time. Hope you come back. There is a lot more to see around here.

[@vickyoakes4584]

Beautiful country, thanks for sharing & WELCOME BACK!!🎉

[@anitavonderheid1580]

We were at mount Rainer in June a long time ago, and snow was piled highter than our trailer in the parking lot, it was Beautiful.

[@allisonians]

Hello. I think the birds at the end that you thought looked like chickens are pheasants. I loved your show! Thank you for being so kind and keeping looking at the beautiful parts! Grateful Washingtonian Kindly, Allison

[@stephenterry9999]

Nice seeing your adventures love seeing you both 😊

[@ronnavaughn2928]

Thanks for the adventure. Enjoy and travel safe.

[@mikeanderson6522]

So excited. I was in Navy in Bremerton in 1977. I loved the ferry to Seattle. In fact I had a motorcycle and they were cheap because they did not take up parking space. Fun. Loved your video. Thanks 😊.

[@joebert889]

Glad you’re back another great video

[@TravelBound2024]

Such beautiful scenery! It was nice to visit with you guys again!

[@miltonchambers8194]

You guys are great tour guides, very interesting look at Seattle.

[@ireneluciow455]

Welcome back!!!

[@michaelboyle4119]

I have one word for you two . AMAZING. That was so cool . Oh and Jimmy you are one lucky guy to have a beautiful woman to share your life with . She really is truly beautiful. God blessed you two with each other . Also loved the video. Might try and get out there someday.

[@patti8376]

Love it that you’re back. Your videos are such fun and so interesting, and now cat wait for the next one. 👏👏

[@davcox100]

Great to see you guys back on the road. What I love about your vlogs is that you take time to inform us about where you are and what’s interesting about the place. That, and of course the wonderful chemistry between the both of you. You make it such a joy to watch 👍

[@michaelsmith-yd9tq]

There is another bridge close to Vance Creek called Steal Bridge. We used to climb out underneath it when I was a teenager 😮

[@dawngrey259]

Seattle is so walkable, so taking the ferry in is the best way to get there. I’m glad you guys did the Underground Tour. I found it so interesting and loved learning the history of the area when I was there. Oh, and never stand to close to the fish mongers or you may get fish juice in your face. Right Natalie?😂

[@mikemullay5622]

Mt. Rainier is 14,410 in elevation from sea level. It is the 2nd highest mountain in the contiguous 48 states exceeded by only Mt. Whitney in California.

[@JimZim]

I've never seen any of your videos before, but KZbin recommended this one to me today. I'm really impressed! Great videography, great sound, really interesting travel content, very easy to like personalities... an easy video to watch and enjoy. Now I'll have to go check out some of the other videos on your channel and learn a little about the journey that got you to this point. One correction for you, Natalie... timber is far from being Washington's #1 export. If we go by dollar value, the state's #1 export is actually transportation equipment... primarily airplanes, thanks to Boeing. Those Dreamliners are expensive, so that's why transportation products are at the top of the list if you are going by dollar value. Agricultural products are actually a big export for Washington, too. A huge percentage of all the wheat exported from the United States comes down the Columbia River on barges before heading out to sea. If you make it out to the east side of the Cascade mountain range, to places like Walla Walla, Yakima, Spokane, and the Tri Cities, you'll see a lot more evidence of Washington's huge agriculture industry. Out of all 50 states, Washington is the #1 producer of apples, blueberries, hops, pears, sweet cherries, and spearmint oil. We are the #2 producer of potatoes, grapes, apricots, asparagus, and wine. There are over 1,000 wineries in Washington! If you make it out to the Tri Cities of Richland, Kennewick, and Pasco and you need a local guide or even a videographer or licensed drone pilot for a day, you be sure to let me know. I'd be happy to collaborate with you.

[@dianejohnston7437]

Great to have you back! Fun video!

[@hilandmalt]

This is the very first video of yours that I have seen! I have subscribed! I used to live in Puyallup and every time someone would come into town to visit we would drive up over the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, up to Bremerton and take the ferry over to Seattle. That is such a beautiful trip.

[@colingoldthorpe5918]

You’re lucky to have seen the mountain . I have travelled three times to see her and it’s is always been covered in clouds😏😏😏

[@JohnDarwin7]

As always wishing you guys love and safe travels. 🖖❤️❤️🖖

[@MaggieMagoosCrochet]

I love your videos!! Welcome back! I will always come back to your videos you guys are amazing!!

[@michaeladams8090]

Welcome back! We’ve missed you but figured you had some important stuff going on. Glad to have you both back👍🏼❤️🤠✌🏽

[@tammycruz8189]

Im so happy to have U 2 back . Dont let utube get u all depress or down this time . I love watching U 2 . N when U dont post im very sad . My Love n Hugs Always From Your Friend In Michigan Tam ❤️ 💓 💗 💕 💖

[@jeffreyferguson83]

I literally searched KZbin yesterday to see if perhaps I had missed a video from you guys as the last video you made it sound like you were going to get back on track! But then a month went by, I think you hurt the momentum that you had, maybe you can get it back, but only consistency can do that. I really like your Videos and hope you post next week!

[@mikemullay5622]

I was just across the floating bridge last week. I have ridden the Walla Walla many times. I am originally from Bremerton. I grew up there.

[@January14q]

❤Enjoyed this and all your special edits. Thanks guys!

[@catherinethorington3452]

Good to see both of you! Fun video 😀

[@stephennowicki7158]

Beautiful landscape. Great video. Looking forward to the next video. 😊

[@eugeneclark8974]

[@gloriajoseph7031]

So glad to have y’all back! Looking forward to the next video.

[@Havingoneofthosedays-]

Good vid clip of Nat getting fished 🤣

[@dsmadre3840]

I used to live in Poulsbo/Silverdale area. I have traveled those ferries many, many times. Beautiful state…#GOHAWKS💚💙💚💙

[@alexandrak3847]

So nice to see another video from you. Yeah!! Thank you for taking us to Seattle and Mt Rainier. I hope to visit that area soon and your videos made me even more sure that I want to visit here. I will skip the gum wall. I feel like I need to shower just from watching lol. Beautiful videography like usual and I love the little facts you throw in. One thing, living in bear country, I hope you just threw that bears-spray in the backpack for the filming and got it easily accessible for the hike. Have fun exploring.

[@michaeldelaney9763]

Glad to see you both again. Welcome back .

[@JoanDaniels-oo8go]

Good morning!! Glad to see you both 🎉

[@cyndicunanan400]

We were at Pike Place Market in 1984 and saw the fish throwing. Amazing to see it’s still a thing!

[@KayJayNorth]

So good to see guys

[@patriciahagedorn5694]

Welcome back! I really missed you guys and your videos. I was worried you weren't coming back. Seattle is beautiful and a place I hope to visit. Proud of you for making it all the way up to the lookout tower. That was on major hike!

[@johnostrem7165]

J&N… we love love love you two!! Total respect for your passion. Missed seeing you and are very happy to see you back vlogging!! The lower 48 has hundreds if not thousands of finite and interesting stories to tell. Be unique and keep up your passion. People love the oddball and off the wall stories. THATS .. where you two will shine!! And btw, if you ever get to central Iowa… look us up!! mojo 😉🇺🇸

[@paulsherman6450]

I am so happy you are back.

[@seeyou1812]

great to see you two, great video

[@ourv9603]

YEARS AGO, There was an open top deck where you could walk up and have the breeze in your face & smell the salt air are as you enjoyed the scenery. !

[@Skeletongirl-ql2ub]

welcome back love you guys

[@sandradummer4726]

Gosh…guys I’ve missed y’all. Glad to see your on here with a video. I was just thinking of your kids( adults) of course today…thinking What are they doing? Where are they ? lol.

[@mikemanjo2458]

That gum wall was disgusting...it made me want to go wash my hands, just watching...😂..the bubble was a great idea, Natalie! 😘 Thanks for always taking us to such cool places! Loved the Garden. Much love to you both! Jane from SC❤🙏

[@DebraKopera]

Beautiful mountains

[@maymaytrue550]

I think they’re called grouse, yes they do look like chickens. Welcome back nice to see you again and great content.

[@paige-p3h]

You were in my neck of the woods since I am in Enumclaw. Very beautiful area. Great place to live.

[@loragunning5394]

A little background on the Hood Canal floating bridge: the original bridge broke up and sank in a huge windstorm back in the mid-late seventies. I was living in a little house in Gig Harbor when it happened, sleeping in my attic bedroom. There was a electric transformer station directly down the hill from my back yard that blew up, scared me to death! Timber exports are not Washington State' #1 industry, agriculture is, accounting for over $61b in 2023. Gotta remember almost 2/3 of all land in the state is east of the Cascades, and it's all almost 100% cropland.

[@Coffeebibber]

That shot at 17:48! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
