I Was ATTACKED While Boondocking by Swarm Deer Flies
This weekend's adventure takes us to the Chippewa National Forest. It was supposed to be an uneventful rainy weekend. But I still found a way to make it lively. I was attacked by a vicious swarm of deer fly's that left me swollen and in pain, but that wore off quickly. Next my awning decided that it was no longer going to play nice. Thankfully I had my Sawzall in the truck and made a few modifications. It is now working like a champ. Sunday morning, I was telling you about a channel I have been watching. It is Grimm Life Collective. He shows what movie locations look like today, compared to when they were recorded. He and his wife has covered some of my favorite movies from the 80's. It is a super easy channel to binge watch! Thanks for coming along over the weekend. I'll see you again next week.

Thanks for this week's video, Kenny. Although I haven't tried THIS myself while camping...I hope this article might be helpful to you. I found it in Google in a search topic what colors might draw horseflies. I hadn't realized also that MOTION can also draw them. I used to walk in a park reserve for exercise...and I could see the horsefly shadows on the ground catching up to me. Thanks as always for sharing your trips with us. THIS is what I found: Wear light colors. In addition to motion, deer flies and horse flies are attracted to dark colors, specifically blue, according to instructions on how to make a deer fly trap written by Russell Mizell at the University of Florida. And they don't appear to be as attracted to light colors or white.Jun 21, 2021

While there sure are lots of things worse than hanging in the camper and listening to rain on the roof. That’s great camping weather! Deer flies are vicious! Even with a face net and gloves on, the little beggars walk around on your clothes until they find skin and have lunch! They don’t leave, when it snows and freezes either. Hunting in Canada taught me that. I’m not a side awning person either. If I could order a camper without one, I would. The ones on the side of a truck camper seem too high to be effective. I’ve had them on travel trailers and they worked well though, because themounted lower. Thanks for braving deer flies, slick roads and thunderstorms to bring us another enjoyable video.

Hello Kenny - work has taken me away for the past 5 weeks. It's nice to be home and enjoying my normal routine (your Tuesday video). I noticed that you extended your slide prior to leveling the camper. On my Lance the manufacturer recommends the camper be level prior to extending the slide. The reason is that extending the Jack's could cause a twist or bow on the camper frame and having the slide wall in will reduce the flex..........this is just some FYI based on what I learned from my Lance. As always, thanks for taking me along on your camping adventure....Bryan

It is so awesome that you are watching the video from Brazil! That blows my mind! I really appreciate you checking out the video.
Glad your face cleared up after the deerfly bites. For a while you were starting to look like Sloth from 'The Goonies'!

Thanks for the tip about Grimm Life Collective. Just watched the episode where they visited filming locations from 'Stand By Me.' Very cool stuff. Fellow child of the '80s myself. Gonna go see the new Indiana Jones movie on Friday. Wish me luck. It's gotta be better than 'Crystal Skull'! Keep up the great work, Kenny!
