I am so glad you got Grace...you have so much fun in her. She is a great addition to the happiness and goals in your life. At 17:00 one of your Converse and Lindsey picked up the other one on the drive in...or am I thinking of a different episode. I'll remind you where the mattress patches are at and nice knife on the back seat...sort of looks like the one on my door 👀 Boys and their power toys...lol. And the upside down PULL was awesome at 39:07...and that is a perfect example why New Denver is one of my fav BC towns...so "We do things our way". And in my teens to 20's, even early 30's it would of been on like Donkey Kong jumping from a cliff into a lake. Great video Matthew...and it brings to light even our daily routines are as interesting or life-sucking as we view them. The present truly is a gift 🤗

Actually, BC doesn’t have limited days for the dump. It depends on municipalities or districts to determine when they are open. Where I live the dump is open from 8-4:30 6 days a week. Also, BC does have a higher cost of living but there is a big difference between shopping in small town hardware stores vs large cities. Groceries in small towns also bad. But if you think it’s bad, try further North in any province or a remote place like Haida Gwaii. Just a lot of generalizations about BC that aren’t necessarily 100% the case. 😊

@@VanlifePLUS I hear ya however, the title is a flash in the eye whereas the spoken words over the course of 45-60 minutes is where the attention lies and, when you say “In BC ….” , well I hope you see the point 😊 Having lived in BC for my whole life, from North to South coast and travelled all points in between, there are stores, towns and areas you shop and others you don’t shop. Katherine (also commenting here) is bang on about shopping in Haida Gwaii. If you truly want to be shocked by prices… go there.😳 We always buy EVERYTHING before a visit there because even a $4 Dollar Store bug zapper will set you back $30.

Sometimes when I watch you I think you just really enjoy the rituals of packing/unpacking setups etc. Which is perfectly reasonable if so and if not then it’s just my perception.

Lol, I can go to my local Walmart in the state that I live in buy 6 items, and it'll cost me $45. Canada is not the only place that's suffering. From inflation and price hikes. But just like in Canada, it depends on what state you're in and what city is going to determine how expensive groceries are. Also where you shop.😅 Heck it now costs $15 for a big Mac meal at McDonald's where I live. No more fast food for me.😂
