    Awesome vids., I'm not sure how far behind they are but I'm doing the same trip, retired now, I just finished my '03 Asrto Van, put a 6" lift in it, a 6 ltr. LS & a hi-low NP 233 transfer on 33'. If we pass each other & you see a gun metal green lifted Astro that has "Free Range Human' down the sides lets chat, maybe we can log some miles, you can tell I'm old I still say miles. I keep adding to my overlander & every time I see one of you vids, I see something else I need, & I'm from Armstrong, just gifted my house to my sons & I'm on my last big adventure, hope we see each other on the road or another country, keep up the awesome content, safe travels !

    Have you ever thought about fishing some of the rivers and streams you come by? I've been a big water fisherman my whole life and never had any interest in fishing rivers. Until i visited Yellowstone. There's something serene and primal standing in a high mountain stream, listening to the sounds, smelling the air, and the privilege to interact with these amazing creatures we call trout. Just a thought.
    Great video, keep em coming!

    • @SlowRoamers

      It’s a tough choice when there are so many other places we want to visit. We also want to be well educated about where we wind up which means staying at any given place for a minute. We’re gonna be moving around for the next few years, so a decision is still a long ways off.

    Awesome video! Thank you! I’m a new subscriber and have a feeling that I’ll be hooked. I live just south of BC in Bellingham, WA. In the process of buying a new Subaru and a small teardrop trailer. The plan is for my dog (Billy) and me to take off next summer to BC and Alaska for some slow moving adventure. We’re both getting older so the big hikes are out. But hours of staring at incredible mountains is in. Still a bit unsure about bear activity with a dog but I’ll do some research. I’m taking notes on the towns and locations where you stop. Much appreciated and I look forward to more videos!

    Gotta say with great views and a great bakery it sounds pretty appealing! What would you do for a living there? I'd do forestry I suppose silviculture or tree planting, can do that anywhere! You can stop most bleeding instantly with micro pore paper tape applied directly to the wound. It forms a clot. When it's time to change the dressing you can wash the tape off. I always impress the hospital staff with that one 😆

    • @SlowRoamers
      @SlowRoamers  3 месяца назад

      Well, we’ll be honest and tell you that we hope YT is completely covering the bills one day. So, that’s what we’d likely do (if not I’d go back into heavy industry and drive truck or operate machinery). We have a lot of stacked and layered plans for our future, all of which involve creating weekly films to share with people who enjoy seeing what we do with our lives. So yeah…😀
      As for the tape, we’re definitely gonna have to look that up. I foresee further drone accidents in my life…unfortunately.
