Yay, no one flipped! Those Ozark Trail stoves kinda rock for the money. Great job on the donuts! 🍩 Y'all sitting at the picnic table laughing at the Laffy Taffy jokes was priceless. Those moments are what it's all about. 😊 This reminded me of a 3 day canoe down the Saco in Maine; sooo much fun. Btw, congrats on 50K and counting! 😀✌️
I met and talked to you as you were packing up at the Suwannee River campground. We had just completed a day of kayaking when we came upon your group. I have been following your adventures since then via your RUclips channel and have enjoyed all of them! You have a great way of documenting all your travels and the video editing and narration allows all of us viewers to enjoy everything you experience.
Best of luck in all your future adventures, I’ll be watching!
Another great adventure, you are one busy person, between work and travel for all these videos you must not sleep much. So thank you for all you do.
Great video Kelly
Great memories Kelly !! For 28 years I took the scouts first spring weekend to the Okefenokee. Always staying @ Griffith's Fish Camp just outside the gates of Steven Foster. Over the years, we canoed from the Okefenokee all the way down to the gulf... I love reliving the past through your vlogs while enjoying retirement...❤ 😊
Suwanee is now on my Florida paddling bucket list. Cool to see my buddy Dan Truitt, aka Southern Paddler on RUclips, in the sing along section of your video on Day 1.
The camera shots, drone footage, & music… another fun & educational adventure!
I just watched a video yesterday of Florida camping guy canoeing from Fargo Georgia all the way down the suwanee river all the way to the Gulf! And now you popped up today! Is a greater power trying to tell me something something? I guess it's time to plan a fun canoeing trip!
First church of the masochist also has videos of entire Suwannee.
In the seventies, I used to work for a small company that sold fishing tackle, boating equipment, camping equipment, etc. I made deliveries of paddles, life jackets, etc from White City to the coast all along the Suwannee River. Good memories.
Awesome video. The Suwannee River is such a fun place to be. Looks like y’all had a great time!
Good luck on your canoe adventure Kelly
Nice scenery on your canoe 🛶 trip
Awesome! I need to go on another canoe/kayak adventure. My last one was on the Ocklawaha River before the pandemic hit. Hiking and road tripping have been my primary activities so far this decade. Last decade it was hiking, snorkeling, and road tripping. The Suwannee is a great river, and the Santa Fe is a smaller version of it.
The blackwater resembles the following:
-Root beer
-Coca-Cola
-Tea
That’s a natural process with the tannins from the trees.
I do as well. I’ve snorkeled a lot of springs on that river. Rum Island is one of my favorites, and there’s so many more.
Fun video , i loved the overnight cabins. Thanks for bringing us along. Good job🌞
You are so awesome! Love your vids!!!😊❤
I love kayak camping and hiking the Suwannee section.
Love your adventures. Been watch videos for quite a few yrs.
Beautiful black water
Such awesome content.. always so happy and such a people person. Very addictive to watch.
🇨🇦
Very enjoyable, good therapy, the tree house, so much fun,donuts 👍
I could imagine how good the donuts were! So cool that everyone was having fun despite bad weather.
That looks like a nice leisurely paddle. What a great trip 😊
50K subs! Well done! Can biscuit donuts are awesome. Next time try not flattening and putting the hole. Fry a whole biscuit, personal preference but they are fluffy in the middle. Both are good.
Awesome video. That look like a blast. Thanks for sharing 👍
That was so cool Kelly keep it up always waiting to see your next trip
Awesome video we strat our 4 day kayak trip on the peace river tomorrow
Nice trip. Funny to see Fire there with you. We hiked w him in Big Cypress in January. He’s a trip… ha ha
Awesome paddling adventure. Congrats on 50,000 subscribers. That's over double the subscribers you had when I first started watching your AT videos. You will have one of those silver RUclips play buttons in no time. 😎👍
That treehouse would be an amazing place to stay. I'm looking forward to hearing your destination and six months of hiking adventures. Thank you for the great content.
Hello Kelly great video a trip like that will break up the winter humdrum Really appreciate your efforts and your videos being you have to work and do everything else in life have a great day
It’s been over a decade since I kayaked and love to get back to it this summer since I’m a river floater. I just recently discovered a hidden spring cave last Sunday with a group of friends and I filmed through it to the other side and also filmed some big waterfalls. Those chili dogs are my all time fave!
Hey Kelly, I'm old married guy and the wife and I have been enjoying your channel since we live in Florida and are traveling around at many of the campgrounds in our 39' toy hauler rv that you are we are gaining some valuable insight into some of the local RV state parks we haven't camped at yet. You're video's are helping us make up our mine where we want to go next. We have been to a lot of the RV resorts but we're finding those to be too over priced and full of high dollar Northerner folks we call snow birds with new really expensive RV's that for some reason don't like us locals. We did Jetty Park last year and we are booked again this year for Chassahowitzka River park after watching your video. Stay out of those little fire ant holes they can be a bugger if you're allergic to them.

Just found you, a few days ago. Can't say enough good things about your videos. Been an avid outdoorsman all my life. Due to accident and age, not able any more. Gonna let you be my eyes, ears and legs, now. Hope you have many years enjoying what you love. I'm going to come along with you, if you don't mind. I'll be quiet, you'll hardly know I'm there.
Awesome trip Kelly...I got to check it out.
Cool fun for you all. I love camping.
Thanks for sharing another fun adventure
Great idea on the donuts. Gonna have to try that at camp sometime! Also had been thinking about doing a Kayak camp next year and will check out this river trail system. Thanks!
Great video. That was an awesome adventure.
Hey MJ great video, reminded me a little bit of our weekends canoeing along the Alleghany River in Pa many years ago. The donuts looked awesome, never would have thought to use the bisquit dough (not real fancy cooker here) thanks for the idea!
Nice , yay you made it to our stomping grounds of FLA. ❤that trip is fun, done it before we started our channel.😊
What a fun adventure paddling down the Suwannee River! The blackwater rivers in that area always remind me of root beer or tea, with their dark tannin color. 👍
Lived in Live Oak in the late 80s- wife and I threw canoe in the Suwannee and did several overnight camping trips. Camped on sand beaches. Lots of bugs and heat and many gators. Being originally from up north it was a completely different type of camping.
My mom and I just hiked that section of the Suwanee River ~3 weeks ago. It was great.
You nailed it once again, what a lovely content! 👌👌
As a boy scout in the late 60’s and a lot of the 70’s. This was a very common weekend trip for my troop. We’d put in in Fargo and get out at white springs. An old man and his sons would drive your vehicle to white springs so we could load up and go home. Great memories for me.
Sweet place! Thanks for the video!
Love this video Kelly. Great trip with friends. Nice editing job too. You are so pretty. Thank you!
Whaat! I've been wanting to get into some trail to river action. I have a short cheapo kayak perfect for trails. Only about 6 ft long. Looks fun!
Another awesome adventure. Thanks
Cool video, It finally hit 50 degrees in Montana.Everybody was in shorts.
"...it"ll be fun, they said..." 😂
Every adventure good for at least 1 excellent moment of sarcasm 👍
Your trips are so fun Kelly!
💛❇️💛❇️💛❇️💛
All the luv that goes into those camp doughnuts😉
That looks like so much fun! It’s so wonderful that you have friends to do these adventures with. If I mentioned doing anything like this with anyone, I know, they would laugh and say have fun bye! Ha ha ha I am so excited to hear about your summer through hike!! 💕💕💕
Bet no one was expecting fresh donuts!
This is so close to where I live. My wife and I would have loved to meet you. We watch your videos and enjoy them. Great video!!!
Keep making great content you inspire so many people
Great video! The Panhandle has some awesome paddling spots as well!
Such rich colors the compound pirate hat. I loved the burgundy bandana. The dog was good. A fun trip but too short. Nice try on the donuts. When you are starving everything is totally tasty.
That was a cool adventure. I kayaked on the Suwanee River somewhere along there but there were four or five crystal clear freshwater springs you could paddle up and go swimming. Hope you got to see them. Hope you are doing well and stay happy.
Yesss I really want to do that next!!!
That treehouse and graffiti bridge are in Suwannee Music Park and you would LOVE attending a festival there. The best grounds to experience live music on EVER. That place is pure magic.
I've been wanting to attend a music festival there for years! One day!!
Rock on!
Love it! I just spent 7 days leading our Scout troop across the Okefenokee Swamp and down the upper Suwannee. Highly recommend adding the Okefenokee and the river section from the Sill to White Springs. It’s always my favorite part of the trip.
Hi Kelly What an Awesome Amazing Beautiful Scenery along the River Awesome 😊
I love camping at Stephen foster SP at your start place ! Lots of great mountain bicycling riding in that area . I was just swimming in the suwanee a few months ago!! It does look like ice tea ! Thanks for the paddle along !!! 😁
My days of canoeing are over unfortunately so I can live vicariously thru these young people
Really enjoyed this with my burnt crumpets and earl grey tea ,debs xx
We're doing our first camping trip of the year at Joplin on Lake Ouachita this weekend...hiring a designated cameraman to follow us around for my 1st video because beer and me with a camera dont mix haha...
Super impressed with that canoe landing and ramp. And those camp sites and structures are like Hilton’s to me
Niiiiice I'm headed to the Suwanee on Friday for 4 days!!! But I'll be turkey hunting!! Freakin love the Suwanee!!
I so enjoyed this video ❤
I grew up, and live, in Live Oak. Summers spent on the river, and surrounding springs, was awesome. Most of the springs are south of where you all were at. They are amazing.
Excellent Video, Thanks..
Found you a little while ago, and getting caught up. I enjoy these videos!!!
Thanks for the video 👍👍
Looks like fun .I will say Lafayette Blue Spring to Branford Spring is better. And the SanteFe east and west of Ginnie Springs is the best.
That was a great adventure!
Good luck girl you go camping everywhere you like me
Great adventure with fun people! Boat trips are the best since you can bring all the luxury items =)
Exactly!!
So awesome!
Loved the video!!! Thank you! May I suggest either olive or canola oil next time for frying? MUCH healthier and canola oil has a higher smoke point.
I used canola oil in this video. Olive oil is too low smoke point for deep frying. Avocado oil or coconut oil would be best but also 3x as expensive
great adventure
You're incredible. I'm new to your channel and I love your videos.
welcome! thank you for watching :)
Hi 👋 Kelly love watching your adventures! We relocated from Washington state to Stuart Florida . Right now we are staying at Phipps rv campground . It’s definitely a place you should visit . They have cool tents set up with screens. Bbq fire pit on a huge pond and on the at lucie locks .
I have a small channel and that's all I do is canoe camp all summer in the Adirondack Mountain region in NY. So I was surprised to see this pop up!
Looks like you got yourself a tripod 🥰
one of my favorite rivers in Florida!
You're doing great things! 😊
Great video 😊
I like this Channel and I'm glad I found it because I feel that a lot of female campers on RUclips make their camping Channel more about their body then actual camping
You got to hang out with Bluey!!! Epic!!!
We did this trip with our Boy Scout troop a few years ago. The big difference was that the water level was extremely low. We started at Stephen Foster and traveled for five days.
I'm headed down this weekend to Seminole state park in GA, I'll have to check that out for sure.
Looks like the trip “Worth Heading North” did.
Location of my first adventure with Rich 21 years ago.
The Suwannee River is my favorite paddle and my favorite part of the FT. I have paddled it so many times and it never gets old.
This was actually a tour.
Ah there's the donuts!!! Nice job! That trip looked like so much fun. Did you know all those ppl? Tripod was the only one i knew haha! And I have never seen folks paddle with umbrellas haha hilarious! Great video again! 🥰
I met a lot of them for the first time but knew a few from other hikes!
@@kellyhays23 ah ok, thats awesome meeting new folks on a trip like that!
@@gracemccoy2874greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 and my ( channel 😊) and countryside!
Joyful
Really liked the drone footage. Now I’m going to have try and make doughnuts. Lol
Wow, that water looks a bit murky! Looks like a fantastic trip though! I've never done a canoe camping trip myself.
Oh, the memories this video brings up. We did that stuff in Maine, Swift water, calm water, white water rapids. The fun and the friendships that developed. Thanks for posting.
