Father-Son Hammock Camping - Finding the Perfect Spot

Check out our awesome father-son hammock camping trip in the Ocala National Forest! Me and my son decided to hit the road in our truck. Our goal: finding the perfect spot for our hammocks, a bonfire, nice dinner, and to just explore the wilderness. 🌳
We faced a few obstacles at first, but no worries, we found an epic location. We whipped up some bomb buffalo wings and instant mashed potatoes for dinner. I flew the drone while Ricky snapped some cool pics.
It got a little chilly at night, with temps dropping to the low 40's, but overall we had a blast bonding as father and son. We had some quality time together, surrounded by nature's beauty.

    Clear Lake Restoration has camping and the lake is super clear and you get to swim with very big turtles. Might want to check it out. In the Ocala National Forest.

    Hey Rich. Great video. Have you ever tried your hot sauce with unsalted butter added? That’s how we used to make them at the pizza shop I managed a while ago. Yummy! 😋

    Yes. I do that when we need to dilute the hotness of the sauce. Thank you for the kind words and for watching.

    great video I got a question, when you take off with your drone inside all those trees, does it acquire all satellites needed to update the home point?? i have the mini and a spark and neither one will acquire all satellites needed to update the home point

    We finished a 6 & a half day tent camping trip in N. Florida, we took my youngest child's dog on hikes & she removed a lot of ticks, even on herself she found about 3.
