    I don't mind the music at all, you have chosen well. When nature is making sounds then I like that also.

    As I looked at the tree I could see the passage of time in the bends and crooks of its branches. How amazing is that, to be up close to a living thing that has witnessed so much history. That my lady was very cool, thank you for sharing.

    I saved it for breakfast, too. I can always count on your videos being filled with beautiful scenery, relaxing sounds and your awesome-ness. Joey's too. He's so sweet. It's just a good way to start the day.

    Chantelle, my daughter watches your videos all the time. She loves them. Well, I started watching them with her. I must tell you I totally enjoy your videos. First of all, you are sweet and a lover of nature. I like how you talk to the animals and trees. I also think you choose the most soothing, beautiful music to play on your videos. If I want to relax and have an enjoyable time I know I can do it watching one of your videos. You do such a wonderful job creating them. I am 80 years old and I know wonderful creations when I see them.

    Another wonderful video to get my day started. Chantelle, you and Joey are my fav content providers and I look forward to seeing your adventures. I have been looking for a word to describe what makes me love your videos so much, and I believe the word that best describes your videos is charming, your video's are beautiful, the scenery is stunning, and you and Joey are lovely. Thank you for making such lovely videos

    Thank you for taking us along on your journey. I love the scenery, conversation and sweet Joey, of course. I always find your videos interesting. I mentioned you in a post on tidlinetoalpine as being the two people I enjoy the most. You both have joyful personalities, a love of nature and animals. I look forward to these short travels with you and Joey. That 800 year old tree was worth the trip on it's own. Thank you.

    Just sitting here in my hospital room awaiting surgery on Wednesday morning. Just wanted to let you know that your video cheered me up and allowed me to get my mind off of things for a while. Whenever I see Joey and his smile, I can't help but feel better. This trip seemed to be extra special. I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for sharing.

    These trips would be great edited for DVD! Mom is 98 and we are in Bandon but you are all over her old stomping grounds. Back in the day her and her sister each had Vans they camped in just like you are doing today. Easy for them to watch on DVD but also can play in their recreation room for all residents to watch. I can just hear them now “I’ve been there!” Reminiscing about their own life travels. Thank you my Dear for sharing. And little Joey ❤️❤️

    Hey Chantelle, I'm in Washington state in my converted minivan camper too. I have a travel vlog here on RUclips too and I think it would be fun to collaborate and do a two girls, two mini Vans and a dog vlog together. I feel like our channels have a lot in common and it could be a win win.

    For all those “Practical Magic” fans, an amazing movie, it was shot right on that water front street! Sandra Bullocks shop was right there. The big beautiful house the aunts lived in isn’t actually on the Island. Everything that happened in the house was shot on a lot in California! So yeah.. just a little movie trivia! If you haven’t seen the movie you should!

    Its nice seeing parks we visit all the time in your eyes. People tell us that about the music all the time in our videos too, little do they know its just covering the heavy breathing while we are hiking :) and it makes the videos flow better.

  • @debh7849
    @debh7849 3 года назад +5

    I like both the sounds of nature and the music. What is sometimes hard the trying to balance volume. Often on You Tube the music volume jumps so much higher then the voice narration that I find myself having to hold the volume control all the time especially when others are sleeping. Whidbey is lovely and it looks like you had a beautiful day to be there. Hope Joey is feeling better after all he went through. Take good care.
