I hope you all are doing well out there. I see @GHuns has been busy!
I took a few days off because of the holiday weekend here in the states (Labor Day), and tried not to work on things and just take it easy. I have enjoyed the recess but looking forward to getting back to things tomorrow (Tuesday). Just a reminder that I have another online channel and work that I do unrelated to Practical Woodsman, so I am literally always recording something, writing something, uploading something, managing communities online.
I try to hopscotch the two things, one week I primarily focus on Practical Woodsman, the following week I focus on my other work.
Point is, I rarely take a break from content creation. And honestly, it’s not easy for me to take breaks. I enjoy this stuff so much. But if I’m not mindful, I can get close to burn out.
Anyway, I hope you guys and gals are all doing good out there. Looking forward to new stuff this week.
Enjoy this video of Balsam Range singing ‘Blue Mountain’ from Friday night.
Out here, a little light goes a long way. You don't need to push back the whole night, just enough of it to see your next step.

This is something I can say I never experienced on the ol’ Shawnee Appalachy River.

Damp insulation won't keep you warm. Dry your layers whenever the sun gives you the chance, because the woods won't remind you before nightfall.
