Hugs your way. I am 4 years post hip surgery with a Stryker hip prosthesis and having a lumbar decompression on October 1. Take care sweetie. There is only one of you!! I absolutely love your vlogs!
Glad to hear the surgery went well. You’re a pro at this now. I’m sure you remember what to do and what not to do this time around. You will be walking in no time. That drone footage looks insane. Can’t wait to see the hole thing. Take care. Heal fast.
Take your time healing Tristan, you've earned some down time and for your wonderful content, trust me were willing to wait. Much thanks for thinking of us your viewers and making videos ahead to fill in your healing gap. Be sure to include Cassie, in future videos we love her too!
Thanks James! Don't worry, Cassie will definitely be in future videos. She just can't take much time off of work, so we can only travel so much together. But there are definitely lots of videos of her to come in the future.
Best wishes for a fast and easy recovery. Awesome drone footage...looking forward too seeing more of this type of filming. I think stickers would be pretty cool.
Thanks for the update. Sounds like everything is going well. Praise the Lord for that. Looking forward to the future videos. The drone footage was great. Gives a whole new perspective to the adventures. Get well soon. Davin
Thanks! The hat is fun. I actually ordered a second, embroidered version of it yesterday. I had to simplify the design a bit (could have only 4 different thread colors in the design), but it still looks cool.
Here's wishing you a speedy recovery, Tristan! I will be having hernia surgery here in September so I'll have plenty of time to catch up on my favorite RUclips channels while I'm laid up. Looking forward to your adventures! :-)
Awesome drone footage!! I look forward to you sharing that video with us. :) I had two revision hip surgeries last year. The one in March got seriously botched. Then the last one, in December, was to repair the damage from the one in March. I already had the hip replacement 10 years ago but it was with the recalled implements. Yea, fun times....NOT I hope you have a speedy recovery. Sounds like you are well on your way.
Don't envy your recovery, you have a very positive attitude though, hopefully a speedy recovery. Oh and another merch suggestion - stubby coolers, would definitely buy a couple with that logo!
@@SUVRVing probably, if a koozie/cozy is what you put your beer can/beer bottle in to keep cool, guess everywhere calls them different, haha (I'm from Aus🌏 ) 🍻👌😆
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope you can get back to those epic solo mountain summit hikes someday - but of course we all have to deal with whatever life throws us and make the best of it. That drone footage at the end was excellent. I definitely want to get a drone but have to keep in mind they are not welcome at a lot of places and, as an IFR rated FAA licensed private pilot, I don't want to run into someone's.
Thanks Ted. The drone is just so much fun. I camp and hike a lot on BLM and national forest lands, both of which are generally OK for drone flying. So it's a useful addition for me.
Can I ask which drone you got? I've no doubt you did good due diligence on researching them and found a good one. Or perhaps you'll do a video about the drone.
Heal quickly, I’m recovering from a broken foot and I need surgery on two completely ruptured ligaments in my thumb so hobbling around is something I very much understand. Great drone footage! Looking forward to your upcoming videos!
Wishing you a quick and easy recovery! I'm looking forward to seeing new merchandise, hoodies are great. A visor would be pretty cool, but there's not much room for a logo unfortunately.
Sorry to hear you had surgery, but now glad you have it over now. It’s all up hill from here. Praying for speedy healing and recovery. So good to see you. Looking forward to all your adventures.. I have to get caught up again. God Bless you and best to your wife.
I was wondering just the other day when your 2nd surgery was happening. Speedy recovery! I had some surgeries myself in June. Sure can slow your down! Nice volcano!
i would definitely love that design as a sticker! and magnets are one of the things i collect so I’d be down for buying a magnet too when you get those up. hope your recovery goes well! and the drone footage is awesome
Hey Tristan, Glad your surgery is behind you and you seem to be in good spirits, which will certainly help in your healing and rehab time. Love the drone, so glad you got one. It can add a new dimension to your already enjoyable videos. Smart thinking on your part to have a bunch of videos done already for your viewers and followers. Best wishes to you and to Cassie.
Hope your recovery goes well and a big thanks for preparing for the videos while you get better. I'm so glad that you have a drone now. Loved the "hole" at Flagstaff. (I always forget the official name of it). I'm also looking forward to the Southern AZ videos because I live in Tucson and always enjoy someone else's good opinions of our beauty out here.
Love your videos. They inspire me to get outside and hike and/or camp. I hope this will be it for the hip surgery. I've had surgeries as well as chemo treatments and I've gotten so antsy sitting around. And we know how healing nature is.
Thanks Cate. Luckily this healing process won't be as tough as it sounds like yours were. I've got more than enough to keep myself busy for a few months. And it'll be just that much sweeter when I finally can get back outside.
Wishing you a fast and speedy recovery from your surgery. I love your videos, such beautiful places. Can't wait until my husband and I can get out west.
Best wishes for a full and expedient recovery! The drone footage is AWESOME, can't wait for more! I would love a stone washed cotton ball cap with an embroidered logo (but without the rainbowish background, don't love that part, just being honest). Maybe a cap with the sun flaps? I sure look forward to more videos! Take good care Tristan!
Just viewed you're latest video Tristan EXCELLENT! I like the hat and logo. I really enjoyed the drone footage at the end of the video😃. I'm interested in info about you're drone and camera equipment you use. Glad you're over your hip surgery! And your recovering well, I my self had gallbladder surgery last year in June of "2017". You take care friend👍😊. We appreciate you much and you're contribution's you make of you're time and video's, although many of us haven't personally met you, we feel a friendship with you have a Great day, you and Cassie 👍👍👌😎
Glad the surgery went well and that your in good spirits 👍 wishing you fast and safe recovery, thank you for keeping us up to date. Looking forward to seeing the videos and I know you'll be back at it soon, Take care and God bless.. ✌️😎
Well, it's good to know, ya just can't stop a GOOD MAN!!! Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery, amazing what they do these days arthroscopically. There's some good YT videos on the procedure too. Continued adventures ahead ...
Thanks for keeping us informed and I wish you a very speedy recovery. Thank you for all your amazing videos and great footage with the drone over the crater. Very impressive!
Really impressive resolution on that DJI drone! Like the logo design on the hat. Agree that it would look great embroidered, perhaps on a beige/tan cap..? Be sure not too push it on the recovery and you should be good as new. Also looking forward to the kayaking and Moab trips. Thanks for bringing us along!
Drone footage was great! Looking forward to seeing more. Sorry to hear about more surgery, but hopefully this time will fix the problem. You have an admiral attitude about all this. Sending you love n best wishes for speedy healing. Glad to hear you’ll be in my neck of the woods come Dec. Can’t wait to see what you choose to film and share. Store: Stickers, shirts n magnets sound great - easy to mail.
I love your channel! Saturday I leave (driving) Orlando for a road trip on at least 2 weeks going thru RMNP, Arches NP, Mesa Verde, Monument Valley, Zion NP and then who knows where on the return trip. Thinking of moving to Grand Junction or maybe Cheyenne or somewhere out there. (just retired). Your videos have been priceless to me. I love your no-hype style, just great well- delivered information in plain terms. Keep it up, please. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Any suggestions for my trip?
Thanks Randall. We're planning on moving out to Grand Junction hopefully next summer, so maybe we'll see you there. Cheyenne is too cold for me! As for suggestions, I don't have any in particular. That trip will be great no matter what you see. I'm sure you've done lots of research on those areas, so just enjoy! And don't stress out about seeing everything. You can always go back and see more later.
Glad the surgery went well. Sounds like you'll be busy for the next few months. Will look forward to all the videos. Yes, like the sticker logo idea. Heal fast and stay as happy as you sound. Thanks for the great videos and information.
LOL. Have been on crutches before. Found a wheeled office chair gave me a great deal of freedom around the house, and that was with carpeted floors. You can scoot it right up to tables and counters and stand easier than with crutches. Oh, and you also get to use that nifty electric cart in the grocery stores. Rrrrrmmm. (You will still need the crutches to knock things off the tops shelves, but what the hey. :-)
Sorry to see you laid up. I’m sure it will work out well for you. A friend of mine much older, had double hip replacement and it was like magic. He was able to get around comfortably with no discomfort after surgery. Love your videos, look forward to more!
Yep, it'll all work out fine in the end. A few months on the couch is no big deal. Just gives me more time for more planning in the future :) Thanks Jonathan.
I know it is going to be hard for a guy like yourself to be immobile , I hope you heal quickly brother. Glad there will be no interruptions with your videos I enjoy them very much. Thumbs up...
Magnets would be cool! Glad to see you are recovering, make sure to eat lots of Triscuits. Drone footage is amazing. Almost looks like you were on a caldera.
Yep, that's exactly where I was! I have 8 or 9 magnets that I got made up to see if people are interested, and they'll be in the store by the end of this upcoming week. They're basically the same size and shape as the stickers, just in magnet form.
I had bilateral hip resurfacing in 2011. Amazing results. Hiked half dome in 2012...9 miles each way. Play tennis, mt. bike and hike every week. Like being 20 again.
Wishing you a quick recovery from hip surgery. Did you move to Grand Junction? It sounded like it was your go-to place. Looking forward to all your vids you have already recorded. Enjoyed your hike up Boundary Peak, looked like lots of fun! Love the desert.
Hope you continue to heal well so you’ll hopefully feel good as new🙂. Can’t wait to see what you’ve done with the drone! Do you sell Kamchatka Gear stickers? I was looking on the website and didn’t see any.
Thanks Keri! I used to give a Kamchatka Gear sticker away for free with every order, but then I ran out of stickers. I'll be getting some new ones soon. I may add them to the store for like $0.25 or $1.00 or something, just to put a little bit of a barrier up for those who have no use for stickers.
Tristan, I know this is a lifetime of your adventures old now, but, could you comment on how your hip ended up needing this repair? So, so glad it was a success and I love being your vicarious friend, celebrating all the amazing experiences through my enthusiasm for your channel. P.S.~ We are getting ready to move back to Colorado, Windsor, and really look forward to our SUV RVing adventures!!
I didn't know you were having any problems with your hip. When I first saw this video, I thought that you had fell. Hopefully you will recover quickly and get well sooner then you expect.
Man you've been busy! One thing about youth is healing quickly. You are wise in how you are taking care of things. I think an embroidered patch of that would be cool. Looking forward to your videos! Especially the Idaho ones. Simon got me hooked on that state with his beautiful vids. So rest up! Sending prayers of quick healing.
Have you thought about adding the kayak on your SUV logo? I think it would be awesome and I would definitely be interested in something like that (I travel w/kayak on my Jeep GC)
I think there was one event that cause the labrums on both hips to tear when they did (I was doing some physical therapy for my knees), but it would have happened sooner or later regardless. Thanks Jeffrey.
Nope, it's on the list, though. I've traveled a fair amount in western Oregon and eastern Oregon, but I haven't done much in the center where the John Day units are.
Wishing you a speedy recovery 😊 I loved the drone footage, cool!
Thanks Sue!
I wish you well, Tristan. The backcountry will miss you!
Thanks ZR!
I hope you heal fast and well. I love your videos. The drone footage will make it more exciting. Take care
Thanks! And I agree, the drone will add a fun element to it.
Wishing you a quick recovery!
Thanks!
Hope your recovery continues smooth and you're back on the road soon. Take care and thanks for the update!
Thanks!
Very speedy recovery and hopes for complete healing to you.. You are an amazing person and athlete. God’s blessings.
Hugs your way. I am 4 years post hip surgery with a Stryker hip prosthesis and having a lumbar decompression on October 1. Take care sweetie. There is only one of you!! I absolutely love your vlogs!
Thanks Angela! :)
“Congratulations” on the completion of your second hip surgery, and wishing you a speedy recovery! The drone footage looks great.
Thanks! I'm really excited to share more drone footage with you guys. It's amazing :)
Looking forward to all those videos! You’re not losing ME! Take care!
Thanks Moon Dancer!
Didn’t know about your surgeries from four years ago. Seems they were successful. Stay healthy. 😊
Take your time. I lift you up in prayer for healing and restoration.
Thanks Shemaj!
I'm glad that your surgeries are behind you. Great Drone footage at the end, looking forward to many of those in the future.
Thanks Lory!
Speedy recovery!! I enjoy your videos so much...happy trails to you and Cassie...
Thanks!
Glad to hear the surgery went well. You’re a pro at this now. I’m sure you remember what to do and what not to do this time around. You will be walking in no time. That drone footage looks insane. Can’t wait to see the hole thing. Take care. Heal fast.

Take your time healing Tristan, you've earned some down time and for your wonderful content, trust me were willing to wait. Much thanks for thinking of us your viewers and making videos ahead to fill in your healing gap. Be sure to include Cassie, in future videos we love her too!
Thanks James! Don't worry, Cassie will definitely be in future videos. She just can't take much time off of work, so we can only travel so much together. But there are definitely lots of videos of her to come in the future.
Get well soon Tristan. Things moving on fast for you in exciting ways. All the best from the UK again.
Thanks buddy!
Wow! How are you in 2020? I am a former Orthopedic nurse and hope that I am congratulating you on a successful recovery. Compliance is the magic.
Best wishes and looking forward to taking us along on your adventures.
Thanks Ty!
Wish u a speedy recovery. Hope surgery is 4 the better. Love all ur videos. Az videos were awesome!!!
Thanks Chipnava!
Best wishes for a fast and easy recovery.
Awesome drone footage...looking forward too seeing more of this type of filming.
I think stickers would be pretty cool.
Thanks Haydee! The drone footage I have coming up is super cool. Makes my adventures look way more epic than they are :D
Thanks for the update. Sounds like everything is going well. Praise the Lord for that. Looking forward to the future videos. The drone footage was great. Gives a whole new perspective to the adventures. Get well soon. Davin
Thanks Davin! And yeah, I'm really excited to share more of the drone footage with you guys. It's awesome.
Awwwwwwww...wishing you the best and speedy recovery!
Kaki hats! Love the kaki color and fabric..tough and matches everything...plus your logo would pop
Thanks Christina! And yep, I like the khaki too :)
Get better, my husband just had rotator cuff surgery from doing heavy weights, Heal & enjoy life, can't wait to see the other videos...
Thanks Love Mind! Hope your husband makes a full recover too.
Sending good vibes for a speedy recovery!
Thanks Cody!
Holy Cow! Hope you heal fast and get back on the trails soon! Love the hat design.
Thanks! The hat is fun. I actually ordered a second, embroidered version of it yesterday. I had to simplify the design a bit (could have only 4 different thread colors in the design), but it still looks cool.
All the best for a speedy recovery !
Thanks Randy!
I wish you a speedy recovery! God bless!
Thanks Ryan!
Get well soon and thanks for all the great film footage and knowledge on your explorations. take care
Thanks REM!
Wishing you a prompt recovery, stay strong!
Thanks!
Good grief...!
You are amazing young man.....get well....eat well and rest......
Thanks Betty!
Take care my friend.. get some rest and speedy recovery to you. Will be here waiting. Plan on road trip this fall.
Thanks Kris!
Ouch. In the 5 years I've had rotator surgery and a laminectomy. Glad you're doing well. Happy healing.
Ouch right back at you! The healing is going well. So far, so good. Thanks Carolena!
God bless your healing process
Thank you!
Wish you a speedy recovery! And awesome drone footage!
Thanks!
Just when I thought your nature videos couldn’t get any better.... you come up with those drone shots! Amazing!!
Pretty crazy footage, right? I'm excited for you to see the rest. It really adds another layer or dimension to the videos. Thanks!
Get well soon. That drone will add a whole new dimension to your travelog . Love your vids.
Yep it will! I'm excited. Thanks Alan.
Here's wishing you a speedy recovery, Tristan! I will be having hernia surgery here in September so I'll have plenty of time to catch up on my favorite RUclips channels while I'm laid up. Looking forward to your adventures! :-)
That is the upside to surgery and recovery... Lots of time to be lazy and not feel too bad about it :)
Awesome drone footage!! I look forward to you sharing that video with us. :)
I had two revision hip surgeries last year. The one in March got seriously botched. Then the last one, in December, was to repair the damage from the one in March. I already had the hip replacement 10 years ago but it was with the recalled implements. Yea, fun times....NOT
I hope you have a speedy recovery. Sounds like you are well on your way.
Recalled implants?? Oh wow. What a nightmare. Good to hear that it sounds like you're doing better though. Thanks!
Healing thoughts sent your way💜
You're an inspiration!
YES to the sticker- that would be a colorful one.
Drone shot was awesome! 😎
Thanks C Tap!
I'm sure you have it under control but best wishes for a speedy recovery :) Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! So far, so good :)
Take care Tristan. I just got done with shoulder rotator cuff surgery but I’m ready to camp again!
Thanks Jacqueline! I'll be back out there to join you soon enough :)
Don't envy your recovery, you have a very positive attitude though, hopefully a speedy recovery. Oh and another merch suggestion - stubby coolers, would definitely buy a couple with that logo!
Thanks! And you mean a koozie/cozy thing? Good idea!
@@SUVRVing probably, if a koozie/cozy is what you put your beer can/beer bottle in to keep cool, guess everywhere calls them different, haha (I'm from Aus🌏 ) 🍻👌😆
The drone footage was fantastic! Sending good wishes and prayers for a speedy recovery! Looking forward to more videos!
Thanks Carol!
Wishing you the very best as you heal from your surgery. Thanks for planning ahead and keeping us posted.
Thanks Joyce!
I hope you will heal well and everything is good.
Thank you!
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope you can get back to those epic solo mountain summit hikes someday - but of course we all have to deal with whatever life throws us and make the best of it. That drone footage at the end was excellent. I definitely want to get a drone but have to keep in mind they are not welcome at a lot of places and, as an IFR rated FAA licensed private pilot, I don't want to run into someone's.
Thanks Ted. The drone is just so much fun. I camp and hike a lot on BLM and national forest lands, both of which are generally OK for drone flying. So it's a useful addition for me.
Can I ask which drone you got? I've no doubt you did good due diligence on researching them and found a good one. Or perhaps you'll do a video about the drone.
Heal quickly, I’m recovering from a broken foot and I need surgery on two completely ruptured ligaments in my thumb so hobbling around is something I very much understand. Great drone footage! Looking forward to your upcoming videos!
Thanks! And best of luck for your recovery too.
Wishing you a quick and easy recovery! I'm looking forward to seeing new merchandise, hoodies are great. A visor would be pretty cool, but there's not much room for a logo unfortunately.
Thanks Patricia! I agree, hoodies are great, and I'll definitely be doing one at some point.
i hope you continue to heal quickly. we all enjoy your interesting videos.
Thanks Jackie!
Wishing you a speedy recovery. It's good to hear that you're doing well and happy. ☺
Thanks tsuki!
Sorry to hear you had surgery, but now glad you have it over now. It’s all up hill from here. Praying for speedy healing and recovery. So good to see you. Looking forward to all your adventures.. I have to get caught up again. God Bless you and best to your wife.
Yep, it's good to get the actual surgery behind me. Thanks Chris Tina!
I was wondering just the other day when your 2nd surgery was happening. Speedy recovery! I had some surgeries myself in June. Sure can slow your down! Nice volcano!
Thanks Edie!
Congratulations on your marriage. Heal well. Looking forward to videos. Drone will be great for your adventures.
Thanks mickme!
i would definitely love that design as a sticker! and magnets are one of the things i collect so I’d be down for buying a magnet too when you get those up. hope your recovery goes well!
and the drone footage is awesome
Thanks Ellie!
Looking forward to your videos with the drone. I hope your hip heals fast and well!
Thanks! The drone footage is super cool, and I'm excited to share it.
Hey Tristan,

It can add a new dimension to your already enjoyable videos. Smart thinking on your part to have a bunch of videos done already for your viewers and followers. Best wishes to you and to Cassie.
Thanks for the kind words! Yep, the drone is super fun. Apart from getting some amazing footage, it's just a blast to fly.
Hey brotha! Hope you're recovering well! Hopefully I can stop by soon to see you and Cass before I leave for Wyoming. Love to see your channel grow!
Hey Chase! Thanks! And you guys should definitely stop by. It'd be great to see you.
Hope your recovery goes well and a big thanks for preparing for the videos while you get better. I'm so glad that you have a drone now. Loved the "hole" at Flagstaff. (I always forget the official name of it). I'm also looking forward to the Southern AZ videos because I live in Tucson and always enjoy someone else's good opinions of our beauty out here.
Thanks Sally! Not sure which hole near Flagstaff you're referring to. The meteor crater? I love the Tucson area. Tons to see and do there.
Thanks for the update. May you have a speedy recovery. I have no doubt that your future drone footage/videos will be amazing. I look forward to them!
Thanks Debbie!
Love your videos. They inspire me to get outside and hike and/or camp. I hope this will be it for the hip surgery. I've had surgeries as well as chemo treatments and I've gotten so antsy sitting around. And we know how healing nature is.

Wow, you've had a busy summer ! Your young and strong, you will recover quickly. Looking forward to upcoming vids. Take care. Cheers.
Thanks Dan!
Wishing you a fast and speedy recovery from your surgery. I love your videos, such beautiful places. Can't wait until my husband and I can get out west.
Thanks Jackie! I appreciate it.
Best wishes for a full and expedient recovery! The drone footage is AWESOME, can't wait for more! I would love a stone washed cotton ball cap with an embroidered logo (but without the rainbowish background, don't love that part, just being honest). Maybe a cap with the sun flaps?

Glad the surgery went well and that your in good spirits 👍 wishing you fast and safe recovery, thank you for keeping us up to date. Looking forward to seeing the videos and I know you'll be back at it soon, Take care and God bless.. ✌️😎
Thanks Sal! I appreciate the support.
Well, it's good to know, ya just can't stop a GOOD MAN!!! Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery, amazing what they do these days arthroscopically. There's some good YT videos on the procedure too. Continued adventures ahead ...
Thanks James! I'm really thankful for where we are medically. I can only imagine what a surgery like this would have been like 20 or 30 years ago.
Thanks for keeping us informed and I wish you a very speedy recovery. Thank you for all your amazing videos and great footage with the drone over the crater. Very impressive!
Thanks! Yep, that crater was super cool. The drone is great for making everything seem more epic lol.
Wishing you a quick (or as quick as possible anyway) recovery!
Thanks!!
Really impressive resolution on that DJI drone!
Like the logo design on the hat. Agree that it would look great embroidered, perhaps on a beige/tan cap..?
Be sure not too push it on the recovery and you should be good as new.
Also looking forward to the kayaking and Moab trips. Thanks for bringing us along!
The drone shoots in 4k, and it's by far the best camera I have. Thanks Matthew!
All the best! Hope it's down to recovery.
Thanks George!
Speedy recovery young man. Looking forward to seeing your coming videos. Be good to yourself and wife :)
Thanks Manon!
Drone footage was great! Looking forward to seeing more.
Sorry to hear about more surgery, but hopefully this time will fix the problem. You have an admiral attitude about all this. Sending you love n best wishes for speedy healing.
Glad to hear you’ll be in my neck of the woods come Dec. Can’t wait to see what you choose to film and share.
Store: Stickers, shirts n magnets sound great - easy to mail.

Glad the surgery went well. Sounds like you'll be busy for the next few months. Will look forward to all the videos. Yes, like the sticker logo idea. Heal fast and stay as happy as you sound. Thanks for the great videos and information.
Thanks! Yep, I'll be as busy as an invalid on crutches can be :) I appreciate you watching and commenting.

I know it is going to be hard for a guy like yourself to be immobile , I hope you heal quickly brother. Glad there will be no interruptions with your videos I enjoy them very much. Thumbs up...
Thanks! In the grand scheme of things, a few months on the couch is no big deal. As long as it means I can keep hiking afterward, I'm OK with it.
Wishing you well and a fast recovery!❤️🙌🏼
Thanks Rae!
Magnets would be cool! Glad to see you are recovering, make sure to eat lots of Triscuits. Drone footage is amazing. Almost looks like you were on a caldera.
Yep, that's exactly where I was! I have 8 or 9 magnets that I got made up to see if people are interested, and they'll be in the store by the end of this upcoming week. They're basically the same size and shape as the stickers, just in magnet form.
Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery! Greetings from Germany 👏
Thanks so much!

Pretty cool, right? And there's lots more to come!
Wishing you a quick recovery from hip surgery. Did you move to Grand Junction? It sounded like it was your go-to place. Looking forward to all your vids you have already recorded. Enjoyed your hike up Boundary Peak, looked like lots of fun! Love the desert.
Nope, our plans to move were postponed a bit, and it looks like we'll probably be moving there next summer. Thanks for watching!

Especially the Idaho ones. Simon got me hooked on that state with his beautiful vids. So rest up! Sending prayers of quick healing.
Idaho really is a beautiful state, and we went to some absolutely jaw-dropping places while we were there. Stay tuned :) Thanks!
You are so sweet and smart, heal fast!
Aw, thanks Jodie :)

Get well so we can see some more of the cool drone footage.
That's the idea :) Thanks!
Have you thought about adding the kayak on your SUV logo? I think it would be awesome and I would definitely be interested in something like that (I travel w/kayak on my Jeep GC)
I've thought about adding it to a different logo or sticker, but not to the main logo. I do think that'd be fun though. Thanks Debbi!
SUV RVing , speedy recovery to you!
Heal quickly my friend. :) So looking forward to all those videos! Life will be interesting with a Drone and Wife now. LOL
Yep, life is different but great :)
Hope you get healthy soon👍👍
Thanks!
Good luck, speedy recovery.NOt sure if it was mentioned somewhere else but the medical issues was rthat because of an injury?
I think there was one event that cause the labrums on both hips to tear when they did (I was doing some physical therapy for my knees), but it would have happened sooner or later regardless. Thanks Jeffrey.
Get well soon
Thanks!
Did you initially damage your hip on a hike? Get well soon! 👍👍👍

Have you ever been to the John day fossil beds in Oregon there are 3 different units.
Nope, it's on the list, though. I've traveled a fair amount in western Oregon and eastern Oregon, but I haven't done much in the center where the John Day units are.
