    Hey Mike how you doing? You look awesome. That makes my heart happy. I’ve been praying. I got surgery coming up soon for my lungs. Yes I’m a little scared cause they are messing with my breathing machine. But I anticipate to get better so this is the way to do it. I’m just glad that you are getting better everyday. I care a lot about you. I care for the Mrs and for you.

  • @MathiasGreenwalde

    My favorite part of camping/van videos is the cooking parts. I love that in your videos the cooking portion is more fleshed out and you show almost everything. Being disabled its really fun to watch people like you go out and camp. Hopefully one day I get better and can do normal people stuff again like I did a few years ago.
    Also with the TV, a lot of people wouldn't buy a 720p TV but honestly I think its fine. I grew up in the early 2000s and 720p then feels like what 4k is now.

    Whatever you call it 😆 🤣 😂 😹
    The Van just looks so comfy and cozy.
    Aww, don't take the tv back. What I did for a summer in my RV was I had my TV and a small dvd player, and I watched movies that I collected over the years wasn't bad.
    I just didn't want to pay for portable internet lol.
    But it worked the only time I watched it was before bed.
    But I'm sure you'll figure something out.
    Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures and for all the hard work and time you put into your videos.
    KEEP ADVENTURING

    The scan for channels would get quite a few local channels, as I think he's near a major city (Lincoln?), but there has to be some sort of an antenna going into the coaxial input on the back. You get the most channels with an amplified rooftop-type antenna (but of course he's not going to do that), almost as many without the amplifier, and then some channels, not all, with unamplified rabbit ears. You have to scan for channels, of course, in the Menu.

    Quady: Just run an HDMI cable from your computer to one of the HDMI inputs on the tv, select that HDMI with your remote, and play something on your computer. I use a tv (Vizio, in fact) as my upstairs computer monitor, works fine. I do have to use the tv's Menu to turn off the tv's sound, as I instead get better sound by plugging computer speakers into the computer. I forget if there are any video settings, either in the Vizio Menu or Windows Settings, but if you get any funky results, go looking in those places.

    First how are you doing?I want to say that you are looking great. For the longest time I’ve had to use a large paper clip as an antenna it worked fine for about 5 yrs no internet connection then I’ve moved and I had to buy a RCA antenna no problem especially when you want to watch sports and you on RUclips. Camping in my friend’s camper he had brought a tubo antenna out to hook up his lg tv you can try any one of those.

    You need to buy a star link because you can take star link and still have Wi-Fi and the Roku so you can watch TV while you're making a video or camping
