Life on the Wild Side
No longer in the woods of Upper Michigan, but heading back ASAP!
13-Weeks-Four-Days Tent Camping in the UP
There were some who said my eight-year-old Great Pyrenees, Maycee, and I would not last a week tent camping on my dad’s land in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
We lasted 13 weeks and had the time of our lives. Maycee, who was an inside dog, now fondly prefers life outside.
Over the summer, I amassed several tools and resources. With them, I make crosses from the land’s maple, oak, and balsam fir trees.
I’m also carving ornaments and figurines out of basswood with a whittling kit provided to me by a generous viewer on my YouTube channel.
(You know who you are, and thank you once more. This Bushcraft carving kit opened a whole new way of life and making a living for me. Your generosity is deeply apprciated and I could not be more thankful for your support.)
Travel and Such
After leaving Michigan, I’ve driven through Wisconsin, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama.
For now, I’m in Montgomery. My nuclear birth family is here or in the area. Maycee and I are visiting until we can return to the UP. My resident state remains Texas. I will make my return to Dallas…
