I don’t think there is any other YT channel that combines human life, nature, visuals and music as good as yours. It feels pleasant to the soul. Thank you.

[@ape2023]

I could not agree more. My favourite you tuber by far.

[@JamesWallaceVancouver]

Agreed - it's very zen!

You are RIGHT ON about how winter humbles you. I've always loved the cooler to even freezing seasons. Fall puts me in the mindset of needing to ensure the blankets are in good standing (I have crocheted ones handed down from generations😊), the car is winterized (although here in the south, it doesn't get too freezy for too long, but ever the girl scout I like to always be prepared 😉), & the soup starters and veggies are all ready for easy crockpot dishes. It also puts me to thinking about elderly friends & family & making sure I have working phone #s to offer a grocery/pharmacy run so they don't have to venture out. The inside of this home reminds me a little of the '32 Cape Cod on Long Island my parents moved us into in '75. When I first saw it, I felt like the end scene of Miracle on 34th Street! We were moving from an overcrowded apartment building where the only things I vividly remember were the bullies on the playground and the fire alarms always going off. It was usually in the middle of the night about once a month. Sometimes w smoke, sometimes without. I think the last straw was the real one that had us outside in January in just pajamas and robes. Mom had grabbed a blanket off the bed but it was still freezing outside. The next yr was the summer of '76 & we were coming from our annual three-month summer visits to extended family in TN & AL back to Long Island. It was the beginning of a mostly pleasant childhood. The hardwoods were drafty but soon covered w carpet and my dad bricked up the fireplace and put in a wood burning stove that heated both levels for the 20 yrs I lived there. My brother's room was a loft over the garage. The goat pen reminds me of the manymanymany club houses dad built over the years and the trellises of grape vines leading to the tire swing. The back deck in this vid was our back porch that had an overhang which gave easy access to the wood I helped dad rotate throughout the late summer through fall. My older brother used to pay me $2 to bring in his share throughout the week...but then I'd pay him $1.5 to make my bed for me ...yep, I unknowingly got jipped😮 (it's no surprise he's a retired Marine--I could never get the corners the way mum liked but he could, even back then!😂) Your whole yard reminds me of the first winter I saw snow that wasn't dirty! It was so quiet, almost deafeningly silent. I couldn't believe it could ever be that peaceful. It was a long way from the bullies who took our ice cream money as payment to play on the swings at the apartment 😡 Dad had gotten us a sled and we'd pull each other around the back yard over tree roots and dips in the yard. My first Christmas, I was gifted a Kodak Instamatic! I took a whole roll of pictures of the snow! Snow on the woodpiles, on the fence, snow on the branches, snow on the railings, falling snow, snowmen, snow on the car, snow on everything! I was mesmerized! Then we dropped it at PhotoMat and waited the 2 weeks to get them back! Now, THAT was modern 😂 Dad refurbished that house doing everything from replacing windows to installing gutters to bringing the electric up to code over the years to interior painting to installing baseboard heating in the basement to redoing the floors, just everything. This house reminds me of how beautiful simplicity is and even more so when the bones are good and sturdy! ~Thanks for letting me reminisce!

[@cooperheat7248]

I live in Western Mass, In the Springfield Valley and I LOVE SNOW. This year we really missed out on the SNOW STORMS. I always look forward to them because my grown children spend the night. We usually watch a movie, play games, cook great food, have some drinks, we shovel in shifts.........this year we didn't get to do any of that !!😪😪😪

[@TroutandCoffee]

I love the description of all that! Truly is what winter is all about. It’s so fun to be snowed in and watch movies. But yes, this year has been lackluster with snow, especially the valley! ☹️

@@TroutandCoffee I live in a wooded area, and the SNOW lets me see the tracks of the Coyotes and Bobcat. I have four small dogs so I like to see where they're coming on my property . Your AMAZING Videos remind me how lucky I am to call New England my home. Great work !!

[@TroutandCoffee]

Thank you so much! That swirling idea came to me that day as I watched the snow swirling from the wind. Kind of felt like dancing with the tree or something. Glad you enjoyed!!

[@RikuSpirit]

I have a KZbin playlist labeled 'Inspirational'. I add Trout & Coffee videos to that playlist. When I'm in need of something to lift my spirits I will have that playlist on autoplay and listen in the background while I work on something. It's a good way to silence the negative noise and be reminded "all in good time, let things happen as they should".

[@reader649]

Another wonderful video that makes my Sunday something to look even more forward to Kyle. Sorry for your car issue and property buy fall through ,but you just keep being resilient as usual Love your drone footage and catching the light reflections in Ally's eyes!. Philosophically and creatively you and Ally are "old souls" who appreciate the subtle richness of your lives and are able to present that perspective through your videos. Thanks so much!

[@breyamckoy]

You're a great story teller definitely a very special gift , I see you don't take it for granted Either well done Kyle 👏

[@moonbeam603]

This is the best channel on KZbin. I can binge watch your videos all damn day. As someone who grew up and is living in eastern MA, love seeing what's happening on the western side of the state. Your talent, creativity and hard work you put into your videos is just amazing. I am very sorry that the house you wanted didn't go through. I went through that heartache a few times many years ago when I was looking to buy my first home but as my mother would say " when something is meant to be yours, it is". The right house meant for you and Ally is coming soon!!!!

[@barbarasieg1801]

I'm going to be 60 in April this year. I still miss the snow we would get in the Adirondack mountains in upstate New York. I lived in Caroga Lake and Bleeker Mountain. Pecks Lake was our camping spot for 1 week in the summer. We dont get much snow anymore in IL, but I still make slippers, blankets and hats. When I can go to see my older sister in Tenn we make hand tied quilts like our mom and grandma tough us how to make. Thank you for bringing great memories of back home back home. In Caroga Lake there is a home that my family built with lots of pics and items that are from my family.

Another cool video - living in the 413 for over 50 yrs - I can relate. As far as the house hunt goes, I am in the business as they say, not a realtor, but know the property you looked at. My advice after 20 yrs of covering the areas you are searching - keep looking. Spring market right around the corner. Even though inventory is at record lows, with patience, the right property / opportunity will come along. Feel free to reach out privately if needed and I will see what I can do to help (no charge).

[@conniegarvey9845]

WOW, such a great relaxing video to start my Sunday morning! I live in central SC and we're looking at a high in the mid 70's today. We would seriously shut down if we had the snow you get... I mean completely down. 😊 Years ago it snowed while at work, they didn't release us from work soon enough...it took me 9 hours to get home (what would normally take an hour). Thankfully I worked with a guy that lived near me. I was able to follow behind him in his 4-wheel drive truck. In my Toyota Corolla he got me 1 mile away from my home after being stopped by a school bus that was sideways on the road...all tires in the ditch! He put it in 4-wheel drive and delivered me home safely! It's funny how different it is between the two places we live, but we have our own way of living through the day to day events that Mother Nature/God bring us. I love the look of snow, but probably couldn't do it like ya'll. I grew up on and now own a sliver of a slice of heaven on Lake Murray. As you have your special places...that is where I find my soul is at peace the most! I really like Ally, she seems to complement you very well vs. others before. Love your videos and your voice. I would mention your nice looks, but don't want to cause any hurt feelings for Ally. None would be caused to my husband of 20+ loving years, he knows I'm a shameless/harmful flirt I am. 😊 Hey if ya'll ever want to go skiing or jet skiing let us know we'd love to have ya'll down. We can guarantee 💯% sunshine April-September! 😊 Keep up the great work you's guys! Kindly from Lake Murray. Connie
