This time, Digger and I go to the other side of the Blue Mountains to spend a couple of days in a place called, Sofala. The camping area is on the banks of a beautiful, old gold mining river.
When we arrived the sun was out and the water was warm but later on it started to rain and thunder but lucky for us it didn't last long...especially as we were camped in the flood zone!
Digger loves the water, he enjoyed himself running up and down the river, swimming, cruising along with me in the kayak or just laying in it to cool down.
Despite the thunder, it was a very relaxing couple of days. Part 2 will be up next Sunday.
I hope you enjoy!
Frank & Digger.

Nothing better than a cool creek on a summers day.
Yeah, that’s a great spot to camp. I’ve been checking the weather, it’s regularly below zero in the early hours…I’ll wait a few more months before I go there again! lol
Such a beautiful spot. Digger is living his best life!
it was and he sure is! Lol. Part 2 will be up this Sunday at 9pm 👍
Ok seriously who wants to camp with Digger n Frank ?
☝️👋🖐️👍🙋♀️‼️
If it was warm I would need a fan though.
Really I wish ALL men knew how charming they r when kind to children n animals. It’s really special to watch.
Thank u for sharing u both with us Frank. It’s awesome !!!
🫵👍🙏🐾🐕🦺❤️‼️

Lol, thanks, TJ! glad your enjoying what I'm doing. Comments like yours, keep me motivated when I'm editing into the small hours 👍
Another great video! They're getting better each week. Loved the creek scenes with Digger and your camp cooking. Looking forward to part 2, Mate!
Cheers, David, Its nice to hear my efforts are appreciated...making videos is harder than I thought it would be but I am enjoying the process and reading positive comments like yours keeps me going 👍 (part 2 next Sunday)
Its a pleasure to watch your videos, both content and recording quality. I love Australia, my son is living in Sydney for over 10 years now! Greetings from the Netherlands
Hi, Klass, thank you for your kind comments. Australia really is the lucky country!
Amazing.
This was your best video, pisano.
Sei calabrese?
I can't wait to get out there on the water.
thanks! I'm not sure what your question is "pisano sei calabrese?' google translate only comes back with 'pisan you are calabrian?'
21:50 - You made me get up and walk over to the refrigerator. LoL
Lol, it was v tasty!
Люблю смотреть как ты готовишь . Кое - что даже запоминаю . 👍😜
Thanks! any recipes you'd like to see?
@@4X4CA Я не поняла , под каким соусом курица была ?
Digger is the best!
Hi, Suzanne, Yeah, he is pretty awesome 😀
Hi Frank and Digger, another great video. Love the unique camera angles, always gorgeous clear videos, Digger always so well taken care of and loved! The blow up couch made me think of the inflatable furniture I had in my room as a teen! Love your Style of camping! Thank you for sharing!
Hi, Margie, I think this is my favourite trip, the water in the river was so warm and we had fun in the kayak on both days...In part 2 the weather is overcast, which is a shame but it was still a warm day. I'm working on it now, it will be up by Sunday night, as usual.
Wonderful, relaxing video! Love the Digger shots! Thanks!
Thank you, Chris! Digger, certainly is the star of the show but unfortunately he won't be in all my videos...I hope you still watch those without him!
I love 💕 your Stile of camping 🏕️ your dog 🐕 love 💕 it to where about in Australia are you it's a beautiful spot from Australia
Hi, Kerrie, I live in Sydney and mostly go within an hour or two but this trip was 3hrs away over the other side of the blue mountains, just outside a little village called Sofala, an old gold mining town...apparently, there is still gold to be found in that river but I didn't see any!
Nothing like the tranquillity of a bush setting with a river nearby to cool off. Great video keep them coming!
Thanks! Yeah, great location…lots of scenic free camping along that river…Digger always likes the camps by a river!
12:45 - This is still the best moment!
😎 👍
Awesome.....love from India
Thanks, Shubba! 👍
👍👍👍
Thank you!
Oh my goodness, did you just ramp up the comfy factor or what? How cosy ☺️ you attention to detail is gorgeous, all you needed were flower petals LOVE IT ❤️
Lol, My days of roughing it while camping are almost over...I like to get back to basics every now and then and put a pack on my back (see video #7) but for the most part, I like to have a comfy set up and just relax in nature. (I'll make sure there are some flowers on the table next time I go filming 😀 )
@@4X4CA you are giving me alot of ideas, a question. Would a stretcher fit down the side of the RV3?
@@My_thought_bubbles a stretcher bed will literally fit but for me at 5'11 my head and feet would touch the tent causing condensation to accumulate on my bedding and give access to biting critters! I did consider the the larger RV4 and 5 but they require pegs to pull out that extra length. (the alloy frame is the same size in the RV 3 4 and 5) I don't bother using pegs unless I want to have the rear window cover out.
Great video mate, wicked setup you have there too. Love the cooking segments, doesn’t matter whether it’s bacon n egg Sanger, steak Sanger or whatever. Keep up the great videos 👍🏼
Cheers, Garry!
I’ve just upgraded my set up to a tent trailer…looking forward to filming the first episode with it tomor…that vid will be uploaded next Sunday👍
Bliss
Thanks!
👍👍👍👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Hey, glad you liked it!…I’m out filming the next episode, should be uploaded in about a week👍
Oh and Mr Clever and Handy in the kitchen, how about you share the recipes too? They do look very appetising, and red wine really? That's a lovely touch
Maybe I'll do a cook book when my channel is a little bigger 🤔
Another great clip! Great camp set up next to the river amongst the casuarinas. Hopefully the night cam sensor got some nocturnal footage
Thanks, Peter! Great spot to relax for a few days. You'll have to watch part 2 to find out about the trail cam! Lol...it uploaded 10mins ago 👍
Again I have to say, I Love all the sounds of your country. So restful…even the rain……Up State New York. Linda
Hi, Linda, yeah, many of the birds here, have relaxing songs...but there are some, like the cockatoo., that have a loud screech...they sound like how I imagine Pterodactyl's! lol just a little rain on the tent while I'm falling asleep is so relaxing, almost hypnotic.
@@4X4CA Hahaha. That’s funny…Pterodactyl’s. I’d go wild…..and break out the wine…..We have loons up here. You have a nice set up ,glad it works for you and Digger. Makes for a relaxing time. With so much going on in this world it’s great to detach and let the world spin…. Linda
@@lindacolangelo7525 Thanks, Linda, thats my goal with this channel, to provide a little escapism into nature for those who need to detach for a moment. 😀
@@4X4CA would be nice if those moments could be Fo
Could be FOREVER. OOOPS sorry I messed up…… (LIKE WHAT ELSE IS NEW…. Hahahaha)
Awesome camp spot, loved it, great set up, quick and easy, lov potato bake,
Cheers, Louis, glad you enjoyed the vid!
Love how you have the inflatable couch!! Looks so homey
Hi, yeah, it's a nice little luxury addition to the camp set up...so comfy
@@4X4CA where is it from mate?
@@AseanNomad I got it from Amazon…not cheap but much better design than the typical ones found in Kmart etc
@@4X4CA Thanks for that 😀
Fantastic as always
Cheers, Eamonn! glad your liking the vids!
Hi Frank, and digger! Another relaxing and enjoyable video! Inspector gadget style, I like it! Great filming and editing as well. The songs you picked matched the scenes perfectly. Love the blow up couch idea! Cheers 🍻 brother, looking forward to the next one!
thanks, mate, I put a lot of effort into the editing, thanks for appreciating it 👍 ...and I spent ages choosing the right kind of music for the intro and the outro...you can go down a rabbit hole searching for the right piece! lol
@@4X4CA right on brother and it shows, your edits and music are crazy. I’ve just done my first real edit and it has given me so much new perspective and appreciation on this. The music to me seems more tedious than the actual editing! Looking forward for the next part my friend, thanks!
@@357.SwampFox thanks, buddy! I just watched your bushcraft bread video, is that the one you mentioned was your first real edit? I see you got 52 views in one day which is what your previous three videos took several days to do! that means your on the right track. To take it a little step further, I recommend using a tripod for all your shots and regularly changing the angle and the distance from the subject and it would have been nice to hear the sizzle of the bread when it first hit the pan! 👍
@@4X4CA hi Frank! Thanks for the feedback, advice and encouragement! Means a lot! I will surely reflect on what you said in future videos! :) - the bread video was actually my second edit, the first edit was right below, a family camping trip. It’s kind of a labor of love, it’s more work to film and edit but also enjoyable when it comes together. I’m my hardest critic and just want to get better so I really appreciate your time and advice! Can’t wait for more of your videos! 🏕️🤜🤠🍻
@@357.SwampFox your welcome, mate. if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! 👍
nice one Frank, nothing like the comforts of home - loved the lounge and coffee table.....what next? - movie projector and AC hahahahah just like Gold Class at the movies, looking fwd to the spit beef dinner, cheers
Hey, Steve! I've seen inflatable couches before but they always looked like the back support and arms would not actual support...then I found this one, a solid one peiece, packs up smaller than the two chairs and is comfy as! I'll wait for the AC when a camper trailer company want to sponsor me! lol and I've looked at projectors but not found anything I like for the right combination of price, power consumption and picture quality...but its only a matter of time! lol
hey mate, yep tech is running along quicker than we can think of what next....funniest one I've seen is 12v ceiling fan for your tent canopy or camper, what brand is the couch? keep up the good content mate and you never know who or what's around the corner - plenty of sponsors out there trying to get their products highlighted on social media. cheers
@@steve-deltasdad3906 I'll be taking a house fan on the WA trip! lol its one of those low wattage dyson fans so should be ok running it off my small 100amp 300w inverter. camping every day for a month requires a little more luxury 👍 I got the couch from amazon
Loved this camp❤Digger really loves the water ay, hes such a good dog, spoilt lovingly rotten😂Love the air couch, where can i get 1.
Yeah, he's spoiled but I don't mind..and neither does he! lol I got the couch from amazon 👍
@@4X4CA coolcool gonna get one, looks comfy😀
Another lovely video! I just love all the close up shots of Digger. Thinking you took shelter in the truck through the storm as it is a bit safer if there is lightning and high winds??
Hi, Jill, yeah, when stuck outside in thunder, its best to be in a car. I'm curious, do you watch my vids with captions turned on?
@@4X4CA Usually off. I will turn them on if I am curious about something you did to see if you "said" anything about it.
Na not for ,don't like to bring the kitchen sink when I go camping! All the best mate!
Ok
And another beautiful spot my friend 😍
It sure was. I drove 3hrs to get there...glad you liked it!
@@4X4CA I really enjoy how you kayaked and young fella Digger doggievpaddled until he was like 'nope had enough!' The 2 of you are such great mates, you can tell your a good egg because of his trust in you. Really lovely to see.
I understand the driving to placea, I drove to Broken Hill just because. And if thar wasn't yowie territory l 😆
@@My_thought_bubbles yeah, he loves the water but would rather be by my side in the kayak! he was a little unsure about being unstable in the kayak but a gentle tone in my voice while encouraging him to get in, is all it took. I'll be doing the longest drive of my life next month when I head over to WA for the solar eclipse. I'll film along the way but unfortunately I can't take Digger, I hope you'll still tune in!
@@4X4CA oh my goodness that sounds blingin awesome. I am wish listing a drone for my road trips, I have a dash cam but my urge to view myself on that amazing drive takes over. I surely will be watching that video sir
@@My_thought_bubbles I 'need' a drone too! lol but they are so expensive...one day. I could also do with a dash cam...too many close calls now that I spend a lot of time on the road, I might even capture some interesting footage for the channel! I am very excited for my WA trip, my next video will be a practice run with the kit I'll be travelling with. I'll film that next week and have it up by Sunday the 12th 👍
10:35 There could be alligators in that water you know? :O
Hi Darill, I'm too far south. The crocs are north of the Tropic of Capricorn. Its the snakes you have to keep an eye out for by the water down this way. 👍
@@4X4CA Ahh okay my bad. lol! I was just worrying about the dog being in that swamp water not knowing what's underneath him.
No worries, Darill, thanks for looking out for him!
Greetings from Roleystone WA, love your channel. You have a similar set up to mine, I just got back from camping by the river. Can you tell me what do you do when you get home when the tent and gazebo are wet? I was desperate to pack up before it started raining.
Hi, juanita, Glad you are enjoying the channel! Yeah, packing up in the rain is no fun and you can't leave it packed up ready for the next trip...although, I do leave the gazebo packed up if its wet. its quite durable and cheap, so I'm not concerned. but, my new (expensive) tent is always unpacked and set up when I get home, wether it rained or not (thats one of the reasons I got a quick pitch tent) even if it didn't rain, there is probably some condensation or morning dew on it and being canvas, it is very susceptible to mould.
Happy camping!
Frank
Good video man! just wondering where the inflatable couch is from?
Thanks, Jai
I got the couch from Amazon...not cheap but much more sturdier than the cheap ones! 👍
อยากให้สันหาเมนูอะไรมาทำโชว์กินบ้าง
Hi, I'm not sure if I have the translation right...are you asking me what I like to eat?
if so, thats a difficult one, I like everything! which is why I'm overweight! lol but you may have noticed I am losing weight in each new video! ok, I choose any kind of curry and Churro's for dessert 👍
Not sure if you respond to older uploads but curious what that lounge is you sit on? I'm in the Burdekin shire of Queensland so hoping I can buy one for the same purposes.
Hi, It doesn’t matter which video someone comments on, they all come through the one comments section my end.
I got the couch from Amazon. I don’t have a affiliate link to give you…just type ‘inflatable couch’ in the Amazon search box👍
8:30 - Isn't it cold for your legs? Wouldn't it be nice to have a stand so you can straighten your legs? Or does it make sense to put your feet in the water?
Hi, the water was warm, its summer. The water is shallow and the bottom is rock, so its easily heated by the sun. but the day was hot enough for us to go in anyway, even if it was cold...especially Digger, he loves the water, no matter the temperature
Has going mate were did you get your blow up lounge thanks
Hi, Kevin, I got it from Amazon...it wasn't cheap but the cheaper ones have flimsy armrests that look like they would split under weight. This one has it all as one piece, so far it has held up....with Digger jumping on it too!
Do you have ideas for beating the insects, especially for my dog
Hi Jeff, Not really mate, not on the preventative side of things.I regularly check Digger's feet, belly, ears etc for irritations and bites. I don't like to use chemical barriers...I'd rather manage it with mozzie net's and always keeping the camper door closed!
Just wondering if this is a campsite in Sofala or just a wild camp mate ?
Hi, Mick, it’s the one in Sofala just over the bridge…it would take about 10 mins to walk from the campsite to the village pub!
...it's called 'Crossley Bridge Camping Area'
What editing app do you use, please?
Hi Robert, I use Final Cut Pro. Its the only one Ive ever used so can't compare. I chose it over Premiere Pro as that requires a subscription, whereas Final Cut Pro is a one off fee. There are free editing softwares, like imovies which I could have started on first but I knew I was serious about editing and didn't want the hassle of learning another system when I inevitability upgraded to something like Final Cut Pro.
We’re about is this place
Hi, Rod
I was on the Turon River just down the road from Sofala NSW…there are several free camps along that river.
27:05 - what is it?
its a trail cam, it has a motion sensor that starts recording video or photos. I'm trying to get some footage of the local wildlife but nothing so far.
Come up to Queensland mate, I'll go camping with you.
I'll be in Qld in a few weeks!...where about's are you?
@@4X4CA im in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland Maleny
I miss Qld, I used to live there many moons ago. I’m thinking of camping in the glass house mountains on my way back down
