Hey Luke, I always get on your case for not using your long spoon to stir your coffee instead of the wrapper sleeve the coffee comes in. Let me share with you why it's important for me to hear the clanging of the spoon pinging against the cup. Here's my story. I grew up on Long Island pretty poor. However, I had a great childhood in the 60's camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, playing army in the woods all in my area. We didn't need a boatload of money back then, but I knew we didn't have much in the way of financial things. I guess we made up for it in a loving family, me, my sister, my mother, father and grandmother. It was a tiny house but we got by. I have fond memories of my childhood. I didn't want to be poor as an adult. My dad worked in a factory and my mom did side sewing work at home on occassion. We always managed to scrape by. I did apply myself in school and sports. Had a great career in both. I'm 70 years old now can't get around much that's why I enjoy your videos. Back to the spoon. Many times I slept on the living room couch next to our kitchen. My dad, a WWII hero who was in the Navy fought in both the Atlantic and Pacific theaters. In fact he was on 13 different ships that were torpedoed and survived every one. He only talked about the War on a few occasions. I wish I asked him more at the time. My Uncle who was wounded in the battle of the buldge, but survived after a year in a French hospital told me more about my dad and the war before he passed at age 93. My dad passed in 1999 at 73 years old. He was an amazing human being. Hardworking, loving and kind. I remember our early morning flounder fishing trips on Long Island Sound. Just him and me. Again, back to the spoon. He would get up every day at 4:30am to make coffee. He would drink a whole pot and leave for work about 5:45am. I would always get woken up while sleeping on the couch by the continous clanging of his spoon off his ceramic coffee cup. I would then get up and do my homework at the kitchen table and we would talk. That was our time. He's gone now as is the entire rest of my family. I'm the only one left. So the clanging of the spoon brings back fond memories for me. So, when you can, please use the spoon to stir your coffee. It brings a warm feeling to this old disabled man,'s heart now.😊

Beautiful memory…. And I understand it completely…. My dad memory was falling asleep on the carp ride home and hearing the wiper blades thump , the sound of the tires over the seams in the road and the squeak of his wet rubber soles on the break peddle….

Thx for sharing that great story of the importance of spoon clanking. It made me smile warmly of your sweet memories

Hi Luke big fan of your videos I love the part where you set down your pack next to a tree and pull out your stuff and set up camp

[@BT.TexasDFW]

Bro, myself, my dad, and my buddy tent camped in South East Oklahome during the hurricane. That Wednesday day into the next morning was INSANE. Luckily, our tent held strong, no leaks, and the only thing hurt was our sleep due to the noise of the rain lol. It was SO loud on the tent with how hard it was raining.

I agree. Over the years I've come to the point that I know you by watching your videos. None come close. Thanks Luke!

[@Anne-x6iShotz]

Hey Luke. Francine came right up the Mississippi River. So we pretty much got it. The wind was pretty strong but not like we’ve had it before. The most we got was the rain. We really needed it so it was a blessing. She came and went. Now we’re back to dry weather. We’re blessed. Your videos are the best and I appreciate all I learn by watching. Gonna sit back and watch. Till we meet again ~ God Bless and you safe.

[@TooOldToCare-kl3co]

Hey Luke, greetings from down under, just wanted to let you know, watching your videos, helped me get through a bad time in my life (tumour in in my sinuses), and have continued to watch since, Strength and Honour, sir. Keep up the awesome work.

I think we need an overnight trip with Luke using his all time favorite gear, just for our fun.

Yes I have noticed the same thing about You-tube. You are consistent and I thank you for it!!

[@marcomcdowell8861]

I stopped consuming so much coffee and tea while camping. I bring packets of bone broth instead. Downing that much caffeine wasn't good for me and the stuff stains your teeth. I might have a cup, not mug or tumbler, an actual cup in the morning, but broth turned out to be a better subsitute for a hot drink craving.

[@tiachandler5350]

It also dehydrates you so bad my Dr couldn't get blood from me and kept blowing my veins and at one point the blood started coming out all of a sudden it stopped and the blood done some vacuum type thing and started sucking back up so then they yanked the needle out fast it was creepy and they had to watch me for like 2 weeks cause of it but the dr.ended up asking me what I'd been drinking the past few.days well with me being from the south I drink alot of sweet iced tea and then a bunch of coffee in the morning and one or two cups in the afternoon I used to not do that I had started it like 3 weeks before I went to the Dr well he called the hospital said he was sending me to get me back there fast and to hook me up to an iv of fluids they gave me 6 bags of fluids I was insanely dehydrated and it's what was making me feel so bad and took my energy away and I was sleeping so horrible it was awful so I started one glass of tea a day one cup of coffee in the morning and water and fresh squeezed fruit juice since then and I've felt so much better so so much better crazy what that does to you ....

[@lorilake7613]

Some of my favorite You Tube channels are on break. They are outdoor travel and adventure channels. It seems that most of my current You Tube feed is mostly talking heads. Luke, I'm glad you're still braving the storms, outside, in nature.

[@scotbotvideos]

I've become rather disillusioned with some British channels who've kind of moved away from wild-camping. One now has changed into a van-life channel which I couldn't care less about.

My son and his friend were camping at Broken Bow State park in Oklahoma when Francine came through. Our Coleman tent held up to the fiercest rain I have ever experienced while camping. No leaks. No water ingress. It rained so hard we could barely hear each other.

[@lyman135]

Luke, would you consider doing some multi day trips? I love what you do, but sometimes it would be nice to have a trip where you are out for longer rather than just set up, cook dinner, go to bed and go home. Also, longer trips are probably a better test of gear rather than just a quick overnight.

Just kidding about how people who work together a lot get in tune with each other. Mickael Keaton comes from a family of actors. Read books? What kind? I read Cold Mtn. I would only allow five pages at a time so it would last longer. I never saw the movie because I thought it would disappoint. Some movies are just as good as the book. Godfather for one. Nailed it.

I camp all the time for decades. There was one day that we (three of us) decided to save some money traveling and set up a tent in a campground in the northern keys. A storm came in and lightning came in striking all around us close strike every few seconds. We piled on the air mattress and did not touch anything around us for an hour or more! I thought for sure we would end up toast!
