I got a story for you Dave! I did it! Sold the house, bought some vacant land in the UP. Youve been an absolute inspiration! Its taken a few years but the planets finally aligned just right enough to make my move. In a previous video, you said, "I don't have ___, but I have land" You have no idea how hard those words hit home. I'll never forget that comment! In a short time, cabin will be built, but for now I'm clearing the living space by hand just bcuz of the freedom I feel. Picked up a wall tent. Its amazing, by the way! Ect ect ect!! Would have preferred to send you an email but to keep it brief, I have to say "thank you"! Your videos have dramatically influenced a strangers dreams!! I salute you brother!! I feel pretty damn "radical"!!

I've been watching you for 2 years now, I live in Minnesota and I have built a couple of small cabins just like you. And I really inspire your videos, everytime I get that notification on my phone that bushradical posted another video I'm excited to sit back and enjoy. Thanks for everything you do, I'm sure you love ur job!

Love the video! If you have ever sat by a campfire and talked with friends and family you know how comforting this video is to me. It's raining and snowing in Michigan today so it is a perfect time to spend around Dave's campfire!

I was lost in the woods once when I was a kid. I was about 12 and my grandma lived out in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas. When our family went to visit, I'd spend all day in the woods. There was a decent sized creek that ran through it, but the nearest neighbor on the other side was probably 15-20 miles since the paper company owned all of it. One day, I went out early, crossed the stream and went in search of an old, grown up road that used to be part of the Trail of Tears. I had hiked there with my parents, and I knew roughly where it was. (I'd say it was a good 5 mile hike, at least). I found the road no problem, but coming back I decided to take a detour to find the remains of a house that had burned about 50 years before. Didn't find the house, so I started back towards my grandma's. ..at least I thought I did. I probably walked another 2-3 miles w/o seeing any landmarks I recognized. Finally, I stopped, having no idea where I was. All my senses were pointing forward, but I knew I should have been back by then. The only thing I knew to do was to find the creek. I turned around and walked until at last, I heard water. I knew which direction the creek ran, but it was running the wrong way from the direction I thought I was going! Against all my senses, I turned and started walking upstream. I finally got back to my grandma's. It was a good lesson of how easy it is to get turned around. I always carried a compass w/ me after that.

I love the cabin builds and project videos, but this format is where Dave really shines. Great video!

More of these type of videos please Dave. You are such a good story teller that I just sat there listening right through.

Thanks Dave for the great stories. You have a natural way of telling your stories, it keeps us intrigued. It would be fun to do more of these I know you have at least a thousand great stories to tell. As a kid I hung out with my grandpa and his buddies. They would tell stories from the olden days, the big war etc... Tonight I realized I missed hearing those stories. So please do this again. Stories by the Fire. I'm sure there our a lot of us fans that would partake. God Bless

So calming...love the stories by the fire. You & Brooke are a breath of fresh air.

You were talking about getting lost in the woods. I've done that a few times. It is scary!! But have you ever got lost in a multi level parking garage?

Lesson learned,!!

My crush just got deeper after listening to these stories and hearing that crackling fire. Seriously, your videos are a breath of fresh air (minus the pine fire lol)

I love campfire stories! Many young memories UpNorth (Thunder Bay-Lake Huron) @ the Hunting Cabin 4 miles 2-track trail… “poking sticks & telling lies” is what the hunters called it. My parents are from Mio/Fairview (where most of my family lives), but I was born and raised in the Irish Hills (Southern Michigan-near Michigan Int’l Speedway). Lived in Seattle for about 5 years and experienced a lot of outdoor activities (riding my horse in the mountains). Always found my way back to Michigan! Always wondered my love for the outdoors was influenced by my parents very rural upbringing (especially my dad being raised in his Amish Gpa’s house his first 8 years of life). Dad calls UpNorth “God’s Country.”

Such fun and interesting campfire stories! Its so neat to know how you got your start. Just love your channel and content!!! Brooke's too! You're both so inspiring to me!
