Hiking Date Turns into Romantic Picnic In the Woods.

Ойын-сауық

Join Kenny of All Trades on a North Shore adventure with Mandi, exploring the woods and cooking a delicious fireside meal. Theres no truck camping this weekend, but we experience the beauty of nature and tasty campfire cooking with us!
Mandi and I had an excellent weekend in Grand Marais. I wanted to get out a tour video on the camper, but life got in the way. We headed out early Sunday morning. For some reason, I decided to throw the Gopro in the truck with the computer and drone. Sunday night, I was feeling bad thinking about how there was not going to be a video. We were watching Naked and Afraid on cable, neither Mandi nor I have regular TV at home, so it was cool to see regular TV shows. It got me thinking.....I asked Mandi if she would like to have lunch somewhere in the Superior National Forest, and she was game! Monday morning, we hit the thrift store in Grand Marais and picked up some bare essentials to cook over the fire.
I stopped at a trail head 20 minutes into the forest, and we started walking. After a little over an hour of hiking, we came across this little campsite. I hope you enjoy the video and spending time with us this weekend.
I'll see you down the road!

    Be aware!! I have been told some of my viewers are receiving emails from Kenny of All Trades, saying they won camping gear. Don't fall for the scams! I won't ever ask you to send me money to cover shipping costs of gifts. If I ever give anything away, it will be known in the videos, and I will never ask for money to cover the costs. Remember the Kenny of All Trades Facebook account, and Instagram account are also fake. Please, don't send anything to the address they have listed. I have tried to get them shut down...but it's almost impossible. Thank you so much for being part of the channel.

    Mandy's a keeper I can't count the number of guys I used to wilderness canoe trip with who once they were married momma bear in no uncertain terms laid down the law no wilderness camping stuff. They wanted posh rooms, showers, hot tubs and no canoeing for days in the bush with bugs and tents. I, too, was lucky my wife loved that stuff. My kids as babies grew up in the bottom of our canoe, and we even had special paddles carved for their size. Good on both of you.

    Hey Kenny. I was surprised to see you. I went on youtube to check the news and there you were. And we got to see both you and your lady. I had to smile when Mandy was laughing. There is no better feeling when you can make your Lady laugh. I really liked the high mountain tops you videoed. That country really reminds me of Penna. I really enjoyed the time you both allowed us to spend with you and the beautiful woods. Now, being old,you have to expect the old guy to reminisce. In 1980 my wife and two kids and my dear brother and his wife and three kids moved, for the first time to Montana.. Twin Bridges, Montana, to be exact. Our Dad's best friend from Penna had moved there years ago and bought a restuarant, and his other friend, a very good carpenter, had moved there years earlier too. They all played guitars and played in country bands in the 40's and 50's back in Penna.My brother Dave and I were almost to the top of Old Baldy, a mountain right out of town, hunting elk. And, it was cold, at least for two young guys from Penna. It was about 15 below. We had never seen it more than 9 below in Penna, once in our lives, and that was cold. We were hiking up a trail and came across two guys also hunting elk. We stopped to talk and when we mentioned how cold we were, they just started laughing..We grinned and said, "What?" They said, "Cold?" Hell, we are from Minnesota, where it gets cold for real." I still remember what they said and how they both looked after all these years. They told us how cold it gets there, but that it was a damp cold, like Penna. I decided then that Minnesota wasn't anyplace I was ever going to live, lol. Tell Mandy our daughter has been a phlebotomist for over 20 years and our granddaughter recently graduated from the Univ of Montana and works as a nurse. Take care you two and be well and be happy.. Norm..

    Thanks Mike, just to clarify. Mandi is my girlfriend. My daughter has been in a few videos. But it was Mandi in this video. She doesn't like to be on camera.

    I thought you didn't drink, but that's okay. I don't like beer either. Try wine sometime. Your videos are best thanks.😊

    I don't. But it's because I don't like the taste, and I don't like the feeling of being buzzed. It's been a few years since I tried a beer. I thought I'd see if my taste buds changed...nope...still gross.

    Those little cookouts in the woods are always fun and relaxing. I thought I recognized that section of the SHT, and my name should be in the log book for 2022.

    Hey Kenny. I am so thrilled that you got to spend time with Mandy in the woods environment that you love. So cool that you made such a yummy lunch on the cheap. Only caught a glimpse of Mandy but she’s a pretty one. You have such a voice and methodology to your videos that simply makes one feel good. Thank you. 😊

    Have you ever cooked your brats in "sauce"? A stick of butter, 12 oz of beer, and a medium onion (sliced). Boil 'em until cooked, grill them for a little char, and then back in the sauce until you're ready to eat. Those beer-butter-onions on the bun with the brat are pretty amazing.

    Such a lovely adventure you and Mandi enjoyed together. Thank you for giving us a peek. I love Grand Marais and The Superior National Forest and The Gunflint Trail! We are so blessed to have these amazing places in our state to enjoy. Last Fall my husband and I were on an adventure up there and were about 20 minutes into our drive on the Gun Flint when I spied a mama moose and her baby wading in a pond enjoying a snack. What an absolute thrill that was!

    We have never seen a moose in Minnesota. We usually visit in November and drive the forest trails off the Gun Flint in hopes of catching a glance. It's so cool that you saw one.

    Those brats sound amazing! Will have to look for these when I'm over in Michigan again this summer. As you will know from your visit to Germany, they do brats here too but I wish we had flavours like that. Thank you Kenny and Mandi for bringing us along.
