Foresty throws the tennis ball towards the camera, Rocko (as dogs sometimes do) chases after the bouncing ball and catches it. Normal right? However, re-watch that part and you will see Rocko stop after catching the ball and look directly at the camera so we can see at home she has secured the ball lol.

Wishing you and Rocko continued safe travels. 😎

Your mountaineering makes you a national treasure, Foresty, but for me, the how of what you do (the customized van home with DIY tiny wood burning stove projects; breakdowns and the solutions; the gourmet cooking in a foot square kitchen; life with Rocko et al.) is more fascinating.

Good to see you and Rocco back. I didn't express my self well enough on your cancellation of Patreon. I supported you through Patreon to enable you to do what you do on You Tube and keep you out of the factory. Your videos are just plain enjoyable, you are sincere, no drama, no other BS. Rocco is an added bonus, she is hilarious, seems to have similar characteristics to my own dog although completely different breed. Glad to see you are close to my favorite area of the world, the East Kootenays. Hope you and Rocco are doing well.

I completely understand your decision about Patreon even though I watched your adventures here on KZbin. With less time to hike and working long hours I'm watching far fewer channels. Yours is one I hope never to give up. Thanks for all you do and glad your rig is running well again. Cheers from the States. ❤

Out in my driveway sits a brand new Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 170 high top. Her name is Atheana J. To Max Air fans and windows will be installed next week and then I get to do the walls and the ceiling. Sir anytime I get lazy about the project before me I put your videos on the TV and they always remind me of the excitement that awaits. The buildout will be basic but she'll still have all the Comforts of home and that's actually what her name means in numerology is home away from home. As Long as You Follow Your highest excitement God in the universe will always provide everything you need every step of the way.

Would you consider giving us a link to a Paypal account for those of us who want to show appreciation for the joy and hope you bring us? Oh, just in case you don't know... if you get a little twig stuck in the chain or wheel of the electric bike, it will shut off the motor to protect it from burning out. Just remove the stick, turn off the power then turn it back on. I had to ride mine home without power and it was NO FUN! Happy adventures on your new e- bike. I love em!
