Remote Lakeside Truck Camping in Wind & Rain for 2 nights

Cheers everyone. Hey everyone and welcome back. So I just arrived at camp. I'm gonna have a few others join me this evening. So we're gonna be camping here for a couple of nights. Let's go Pull that right there with that handle. Just pull it straight out or pull it snap. All right guys. So I got the awning all set up. Jacob gave me some leveling blocks. So I haven't even got to show you guys the spot yet. Check it out. We got Jacob from Family Man Camping Adventures set up right here. Ben Snipper Gumby right over there. We got Charles set up right here. Got a nice topper on the back of his and the tent overhang. Really nice setup. It's a spot. Cheers everyone. So I've got the Camp Lux camp stove. Really like this little stove because of the legs on the tent. So for dinner tonight we're going to do these smoked sausages. Nice and easy. And I've got a bun. Put them on. Should be pretty good. So I've got this orange mango and lime culture pop soda. I'm gonna try it out. Hopefully it's good. Cheers guys. It's not too bad. All right everyone. Sausages are done. Cheers guys. It's very good. This is an awesome spot. I'm gonna finish eating all these. Kind of get everything situated out here for the rain tonight. Go hang out with these guys by the fire until it's time to get in the back of the truck. I'll see you guys then. So it is currently 8 48. So it's supposed to get down in the 40s tonight. I've got this wool blanket and then I've also got my sleeping bag here. Should be plenty warm. I've also got a heater blanket and a heater underneath the bed. So I'm gonna get changed really quick and get ready to hit the hay. It's been a really nice evening. Relaxing by the fire. Got a nice open view of the water and uh hanging out with some good friends. So ready to do it again tomorrow. But until then I'll see you guys in the morning. Hopefully we get some rain. Well good morning everyone. About 6 45. It's been a rainy morning. We've had some pretty strong wind gusts come through. Looks like the awning healed up pretty good. But the shower tent is collapsed. Oh well. Time to get up and make some coffee. These guys got a fire going out here so I'll join them and do it. Let's get some coffee made real quick. I think I'll use the old kettle this morning. Got some folded black silk. All right everyone let's coffee time. Get the Blue Eddy started up. Get my kettle plugged in here. I'm just going with the black silk this morning. And I've got this little pour over coffee filter. Pop that in. Here's our view this morning. Thermometer's showing 58 degrees in the camper cell. Probably about 49 degrees outside. I didn't set up the outside thermometer just because of the rain. But when the wind blows out there it's pretty chilly. Water is dumb. All right guys let's go ahead and get out. Check this out. What about the six foot awning? The one that just comes straight out? It's good with the rain and stuff. Everything out here is just soaked. Completely soaked. So I'm not sure how much the awning actually helped. But the wind was blowing in sideways. I think that's why it all got so wet. But the good news is we don't have to go home till tomorrow. So it should have time to dry out. But it's a really nice morning out here by the lake. Very good coffee with that pour over. That's my favorite. I'm just gonna do some bacon and eggs. Got some thick cut bacon here. It's good. Good breakfast. Nice view. Windy windy day but it's been awesome. With the storms we had last night it's turned out to be a pretty good day. So this spot is actually in Tennessee and across the lake over there is Kentucky. So right in between. Well in between the lakes. 12 more. Depends on how if you want to double stack it or single stack it. That was a ringer. So if you just want to do one layer we could probably do it with about one or two more. 182. All right everyone so we've just been hanging out around camp. The weather has actually been pretty windy today. Had some rain coming in so we put up a canopy over there and then the rain went away. Ben smoked some pork shoulder and I think it is done now so we're gonna be eating pretty soon. We used the ThermoPro thermometer and it's reading about 178 179 so it should be done. We're gonna be eating pretty soon so just a great spot on the last night here. Got all my gear drying out here ready to be packed away. Sun is actually coming out warming up a little bit. We also made a little fire pit over here right here by the water. All right everyone so just walking out here away from camp a little bit. So at the time of recording this just hit 5,000 subscribers and I'd like to thank you all for reaching 5,000 this year. Closing out 2024 this has been a really fun year. We've done some awesome camping this year. Made some really good new friends and it's just been a really great fun year. So this might be the last video of 2024 and going into 2025. So really looking forward to doing some more camping in the next year and of course bringing you guys along. So we are about to eat pretty soon. We're all just kind of enjoying the sun because most of the day it has been covered up by clouds and really really windy. Thankfully the wind has died down. It's really comfortable out here now. Last night around three o'clock the rain started and then the wind was gusting like crazy and it just made it even worse and the awning held up great. The shower tent not so much but overall it's been a really really successful trip. I know I usually do a lot of like solo stuff but it's really good every once in a while to get out with some people that are like-minded and enjoy doing the same things. Anyway guys I really appreciate you all for making these last few years awesome. Reaching 5,000 subscribers that's insane. I never thought I'd even get like a hundred so really excited about that and excited to see what happens in the new year. I hope you all had a merry Christmas and a happy new year coming up and with that said we still got this evening and tomorrow morning so stick around. Let's go eat. Friend already and helping me making some decisions and we are talking and talking. It's about time to get up, make some coffee really quick. I've got a few more things I need to pack up and we'll be ready to get out of here. Stayed around 60 degrees in here last night. Really comfortable temperature. Didn't get cold at all. It's been a really good trip. Awesome spot. Good food. Good people. It's about that time to get out of here so I'm gonna get up and I really hope you all enjoyed this one. If you did be sure to leave a like, consider subscribing and I'll see you all in the next one. Bye guys.
