Thanks to you and your friend for being an inspiration. We don't get to choose what happens to us in life but we do get to choose how we react to it. I'm a brain injury survivor. 2 gun shots in my head during a robbery in 2017. I still have some issues but the things you can work around outnumber the that can stop you. I wish you both the very best in the year to come.👍
Loved this video. It brought me to tears. Not at a pity, more out of inspiration. Channing is awesome, and her attitude is more than inspiring. Your new truck is awesome. Thanks again for introducing us to this spirited inspirational, motivating person.
Super impressed by Channing. Her spirit and refusal to let herself be limited by physical challenges gave me an appreciation and respect for her adaptability overcoming disability. Absolutely love her rig and the way she also uses a trike to get on trails! I'm not surprised that you two connected and maintained contact since the surfing program! Also glad you got the new truck break-in advice and are easing into towing; that should prolong the trans/engine life and hopefully delay any issues for years.
Thank you Catherine for sharing your latest adventure with your inspiring friend. I have so much respect for your friend who hasn't let her disability stop her. 👍
A beautiful heartfelt, inspiring video that reminded me to live the life I have been given with love, good humour, goodwill and an adventursome spirit. Thank you so much Cat.
Good Morning Catherine,,, as the "opening footage" was playing... I said... "That is 395,,, I bet she is headed to Alabama Hills,, " ... Glad to hear that some camping is "allowed" again...Thank you for helping keep this land "Clean"... Merry Christmas,,, and a Very Happy NEW Year,,,
❤ GR8 VID ❤ LOVED IT ❤ I've blown by Alabama Hills hundreds of times but never stopped to enjoy that spot. I must stop one of these times while I'm strolling slowly north up the eastern Sierras. I'm usually strolling slowly up coast hwy from San Diego to Seattle because I love watching surfers, remembering the days I used to surf everyday myself. I loved this video especially since this past year it became too difficult to walk myself. I'm 73 and slowly over the past 3 or 4 years I lost the strength in my leg muscles. I've fabricated 5 electric eBikes over the years so I could zip around campsites & trails but recently switched to an electric power wheel chair .. so this video with your caravan'ing buddy sort of hit home. Us VanLife peeps are used to customizing our rigs & life so we can travel & enjoy the freedom & independence of living on the open road ❤ Loved this video ❤
Very inspirational !! Thank you for sharing Channing's story with us. I had to chuckle when you showed us where you bought your new truck. I used to live in Lakewood but worked in Long Beach and would drive past Harbor Chevrolet twice a day. Small world.....
Happy Sunday, dear Catherine. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family. Hard to believe that this is your last video of 2024. I'm looking forward to more adventures with you in 2025. Much love to you and yours.
How great that Channing as bucked the system and found ways to pursue her dreams. Her comment about creating debt, just so she could work to pay it off only to generate more is a reminder for all of us, honestly, and great inspiration as I begin a new year. Thank you for sharing info about the new truck break-in period. I've never heard of that and might have made a bad mistake if I'd not learned about it. Dealers no longer tell us what we really need to know, do they?
I love that you had formative experiences in the Eastern Sierra. Same here. We drove over Tioga Pass to Mammoth in 2006 and were gobsmacked. Instant love at the hugeness, the quietude. The steepness.
Mmmm... tacos... I will have to go camping there sometime. I lived in Tehachapi for about a year when I was a boy. Wasn't really mobile at the time, so exploring was limited. Then I moved to Colorado which changed the whole direction of my life.
As soon as we saw the opening scene, we knew where you were headed! It’s one of our favorite places too. We loved meeting Channing, what an inspiration she is. I hope we get to see her again. Hope you had a great Christmas and Happy New Year!
I was hoping you’d take your maiden voyage in your new truck in the Alabama hills. It’s such a beautiful place! I love the sierras dusted in snow. Great thing about the Alabama hills is if it gets really icky, you can enjoy lone pine as well as the natural beauty. I have a friend who loves outdoors. He and his wife hit the trails whenever they can. He has spina bifida and since he got the free wheel on his chair he goes everywhere that is possible to go in it. It’s great to see how a little bit of technology and ingenuity can make so many things accessible snd available to people of all abilities. I have a friend who is now in her 70s who was until recently an avid surfer and skier. She was born with CP but she says on the snow and the water she feels she can move seamlessly. It’s just the regular ground that is troublesome for her. Thanks for introducing us to your friend. Glad you had a great time breaking in your new truck. Look forward to upcoming adventures.
Wow! meeting up with Channing and sharing her incredible journey was amazing---I hope that you can do another adventure with her this coming year. Good wishes to you for a blessed holiday and I'm looking forward to watching all the new trips in 2025~Cheers
Wow! A very inspiring woman indeed! Now I don't have any excuses to get out there myself! 😂Traveling alone was easier in my mid-20's to early 40's. I was more adventurous then, but felt used my age as an excuse. I would love to just travel more local in a truck camper and recapture some of that 'adventurous' spirit I once had 😊Thank you to you and your friend for being such inspirations!
Catherine, I’m so glad you’re getting settled in your new truck. My husband and I had a very similar experience buying a new tow vehicle this summer. First purchase needed an unavailable part, etc., and we bought new. We are pleased so far and I hope you will be as well. That you for your videos! We have been watching you from the beginning. Happy New Year!
Hi Catherine! Thank you for introducing us to your awesome friend Channing! 👍🙏🌞💛 What an inspiration she is and a great way to start 2025! May God keep you both beautiful ladies safe, healthy, strong and happy in the new year ahead! 🙏💯❤️🏕🌲💚💛
Thank you so much for sharing this video with Channing. She is quite an inspiration. Years ago, while supervising a Therapy Gym I worked with our PTs, OTs and RTs assisting them with physically challenged kids. It was the most rewarding experience of my life. Seeing these kids have great fun was incredible. Summer camp in Kerrville, Texas, was the best vacation I've ever had.
What a inspiration your friend is ❤. Love her rig pretty nice set up. Wonderful first maiden voyage for your new truck….. wishing you many many many many many many many many many safe miles ahead ❤️👈🤗
Being a person that has dealt with physical issues over most of my very long life, it's always great to see a person that also works through their physical issues. Channing, you keep up the great work! And Cat, the last three shells I've bought over 30 years (company name begins with L) have been late in delivery, so be patient. The shells are great, they just take a long time for delivery...
I wanted to visit the Sierras over my holiday break but my husband had major surgery and we can't go. Watching gave me a small reprieve. Love that area. Your friend is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing her amazing story.
More Channing Please! Go hiking, I want to see that bike in action!! I’ve watched your videography for years but this is my favorite to date ♥️ safe and sound new year to you and your loved ones 🎉
Wow! That is one impressive lady, Channing is awesome! I requested to follow her on instagram. I loved her truck camper setup! Thanks for sharing your adventure with her, I just keep learning so much via your RUclips channel Catherine. I think the greatest gift I get from your content is to let go of fear. I have so much fear of living, not sure why, but I want to change that aspect about myself. Your videos give me courage!
Wow! I like that truck tent although it looks a bit challenging to put up. I never owned a truck and mainly did car camping in tents with my Toyota Tercel hatchback years ago. Your campsite is lovely with its sculptural rock formations and snow-covered mountains with the lenticular clouds overhead. Channing's camper is like glamping! I love the Christmas tree and lights. That's wonderful how she was introduced to surfing through the Life Goes On Surfing event where she met a lot of other cool people in WC's. Awesome that, instead of living vicariously through watching your adventures on RUclips, that she started to go camping, paddling, surfing, and enjoying nature firsthand by herself. Her travel stickers on the side of her camper attests to all of the places she's visited so far. Her tacos looked mighty tasty and made my mouth water! Happy Solstice and New Year to you both! 🌞🎇✨🎉
Beautiful area to break in your new truck! Thank you for taking us along. Your friend Channing is remarkable, and has such a “let’s go” attitude! Lovely person, and it is good to see you slowly but surely get back on the road! Best wishes to both of you for your journeys 😊 and see you after the holidays.
Such a beautiful setting! And your tent worked great- good for you to try that. ❤ Your friend is remarkable - thanks for introducing her to us. It’s great to see you enjoying your new truck. I can’t wait to see where you and that truck go in 2025! Happiest of New Years, Catherine! ❤
Thank Y'all Ladies for the armchair road trip. Stay Safe, keep posting and I'll keep watching. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! 🎉 Im looking forward to further adventures in 2025, Thank You for the Great 2024🙏👍🐕🦺🇺🇲
Looks like a successful adventure in the new truck. What a spectacular place to camp. Your friend is an inspiration. Thank you for another great video.
Awesome way to break in the new truck. It's great that you are involved with a group like Life Rolls On. And you're right. When you are around these people for a bit you have to take a second to thank the good Lord for your health and well being. We often did the same thing in the sport of Skydiving. Can't wait to see the truck and camper together Cat.
Cat, I am so happy for you. Looking forward to future videos. The new truck will bring you some new great adventures hopefully with not breaking down.😂
We have a similar body style 2500HD to your old one it’s a 2007. We bought a similar truck tent several years back for it and we still love it when the truck camper isn’t on. I’m 6’2” and can pretty much stand up in ours. We also added the fitted air mattress. Anyways…Congrats on your new setup!
Love this, Catherine. Your friend Channing is such an inspiration. Beautiful camping spot with amazing views and great company. We'll make it to the Sierra hopefully in the next few years. ❤ Awesome maiden voyage for your truck. 😊 Happy New Year to you! 🎉
Beautiful video in every way! Happy,safe New Year.Tent sits well on that spacious truck bed. Thanks for an inspiring yeàr of hikes and breathtaking videos.Your work is outstanding!
I'm glad you found out about the break-in period for your new truck. I would suggest also reading the owners manual front to back. There is lots of information and probably some "Easter Eggs" in there. Also, if you think you'll be keeping this truck for the long haul think about buying the official GM Service Manuals. Even if you don't intend to do any of your own work you'll find valuable trouble shooting information that may save some service bills and will almost certainly save you from a mechanic throwing parts at a repair.
Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2025. Hope all goes well for you and the new year. Thank you for sharing your life. We truly enjoyed watching your videos.
A very inspiring video. I camp in a Kodiak canvas truck tent. Looks like a Conestoga wagon set up. It has steel poles. is waterproof and can handle a good snow load. It can be a pain to set up the first few times till you figure it out. Very tall and roomy. I'm upgrading this Spring to a shell. Not a typical shell but one the size of a pickup camper. But is just the shell.
“I don’t want to live the rest of my life creating debt, then pay the debt, then die.” Wow. Inspiration to not over stress and just go live. Go do the things that really matter. Thank you.
Yeah, the scenery bought me to tears, literally! I’ll probably have a big cry when I actual get to see some of this gorgeous country when I start my vanlife, hopefully in March…your friend is truly amazing and the life of adventure she’s living!! Happy New Year!!
Truck tents are great! Just where I live, you don’t go out camping if the weather looks the least bit sketchy. Rain flies help, but the wind is a different story. Enjoy!
So much beauty in so many ways. People, places, friendships and perseverance with a good heart. Your new rig is fantastic and well deserved. Happy New Year! We look forward to new adventures this year. Best to you and yours ❤❤❤!!!
Channing is awesome! Glad she joined you on this shakedown camping adventure. I tried a truck bed tent once but discovered that you really can't easily leave your campsite in your vehicle without breaking down the tent and then setting it all back up again when you get back. That was a deal breaker for me as we like to explore the areas we camp at. It will be fun what you end up with for a camper. I'll stay tuned. :)
❤ this video so much, Channing amazing woman so inspiring. Thanks for sharing your adventures Catherine you never disappoint thanks for all you do, and share ❤
Thanks to you and your friend for being an inspiration.
We don't get to choose what happens to us in life but we
do get to choose how we react to it. I'm a brain injury survivor.
2 gun shots in my head during a robbery in 2017. I still have
some issues but the things you can work around outnumber the
that can stop you. I wish you both the very best in the year to come.👍
WOW.. you're an inspiration!
Finding inspiration through
Positive happy people.
Wish you a Great New Year!!!

What an inspiring lady, your friend !! Such a good vibes video and a beautiful area. It’s so heartwarming to see. Thank you ! ❤️
So cool to see Channing out in her element it shows that nothing can stop you from getting out in nature.
Happy Sunday, dear Catherine. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family.
Hard to believe that this is your last video of 2024. I'm looking forward to more adventures with you in 2025.
Much love to you and yours.
Catherine Gregory, thank you so much showing me a beautiful campsite that you have to enjoy watching your video
Your videos are so relaxing. Have not been able to get out in nature much due to an injury. Your vids are a welcome escape. Thank you❤

Your friend is so awesome! Beautiful scenery, your new truck is a very nice gift for Christmas 🎄 and New Year 🎉❤🙏
Love watching your videos every Sunday 💜 Congratulations on your beautiful new truck, so fun! Safe travels.
Hey there!
I'm a long time tent camper..You should always use the rain fly even if it isn't going to rain. It keeps the dew off of the top of the tent
Happy New Year Catherine, I just want you to know how much I appreciate you 🥰and your videos. I look forward to more adventures in 2025!
Many thanks to a couple of amazing and inspirational ladies. Stay well & safe😀❤❤
Great video. You are a master of editing, which is greatly appreciated!
Thank Y'all Ladies for the armchair road trip. Stay Safe, keep posting and I'll keep watching. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! 🎉 Im looking forward to further adventures in 2025, Thank You for the Great 2024🙏👍🐕🦺🇺🇲
Thanks so much! I'm looking forward to more adventures in 2025 too!
Looks like a successful adventure in the new truck. What a spectacular place to camp. Your friend is an inspiration. Thank you for another great video.
I really enjoy the 'topography' of the land you choose that's amazing to me. The boulders, the snowy peaks etc.
Superior choice of trucks. Way to go!
Awesome way to break in the new truck. It's great that you are involved with a group like Life Rolls On. And you're right. When you are around these people for a bit you have to take a second to thank the good Lord for your health and well being. We often did the same thing in the sport of Skydiving.

I’ll be towing with the new truck very soon!
Liked your camping buddy, nothing stops her from enjoying life! Inspiring! Happy new year, stay safe👍❤️🇨🇦
What a wonderful inspiration your friend is. She doesn't allow her condition to hold her back. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Yr Cat😊
Channings enthusiasm for life in a van is enough to get me going on my next adventure. Thank you for sharing!
Channing, what a beautiful breath of fresh air you are!! And you're pretty darn good-looking, too! Have fun and enjoy your adventures. Toledo Ohio. 💙
Happy New Year! What an incredible first camping adventure with your new truck. Cool setup your friend has. Very inspiring lady!
What wonderful inspirations you two are to me. God Bless, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you both! 🙏✝️🛡️❤️🎄💚
Great place to go for a maiden voyage.
Love the tent, love Channing, love that you're back on the road.
One of my favorite places in the world also! Channing is a real inspiration.
As if any more reason was needed to support you this video is it. It is about so much more than your new ride. Thank you.❤
Cat, I am so happy for you. Looking forward to future videos. The new truck will bring you some new great adventures hopefully with not breaking down.😂
Happy new year guys from Thailand 🇹🇭🙏❤️❤️🎉🎉🎉
May God continue to bless you and keep you safe in the days ahead! Happy 2025!
Nice video with breathtaking views, thanks for sharing.
Such beautiful scenery! Thanks for taking a long.

I'm glad you found out about the break-in period for your new truck. I would suggest also reading the owners manual front to back.

Best wishes for a happy and healthy 2025. Hope all goes well for you and the new year. Thank you for sharing your life. We truly enjoyed watching your videos.
A very inspiring video. I camp in a Kodiak canvas truck tent. Looks like a Conestoga wagon set up. It has steel poles. is waterproof and can handle a good snow load. It can be a pain to set up the first few times till you figure it out. Very tall and roomy. I'm upgrading this Spring to a shell. Not a typical shell but one the size of a pickup camper. But is just the shell.
Happy holidays Catherine good luck with the new truck be safe out there
Beautiful scenery once again. Very good location for camping. Thank you once again Cat.
“I don’t want to live the rest of my life creating debt, then pay the debt, then die.” Wow. Inspiration to not over stress and just go live. Go do the things that really matter.
Thank you.
Yeah, the scenery bought me to tears, literally! I’ll probably have a big cry when I actual get to see some of this gorgeous country when I start my vanlife, hopefully in March…your friend is truly amazing and the life of adventure she’s living!! Happy New Year!!
Truck tents are great! Just where I live, you don’t go out camping if the weather looks the least bit sketchy. Rain flies help, but the wind is a different story. Enjoy!
Drive it like your going to use it. Just make sure you do the oil changes more often then recommended first few times.
So much beauty in so many ways. People, places, friendships and perseverance with a good heart. Your new rig is fantastic and well deserved. Happy New Year! We look forward to new adventures this year. Best to you and yours ❤❤❤!!!
Good video with an amazing friend! Live your dreams and enjoy the journey. The mind is a powerful tool to push us forward. Happy New Year in 2025! 😎
More adventures - less worries.
Another great video. Thank you for sharing your friend and her inspiring story. Happy New Year!
Thank you for your videos, this one was truly inspiring.😊
Inspiring video as always. Thank you and best wishes for a fantastic 2025!
Happy New Year Catherine. Thanks for the videos. All the best in the new year. 😊
Great to see you back in your special happy place! What an awesome, positive, beautuful friend, Channing. Happy New Year, everyone! 🙏🇨🇦😎🌎✌️🐝💝
