    I had to look up the acronym, but for sure, Jay is ultra-mellow. I like how he appreciates the little things as much as the grand views.

    i watched some of his videos of the Arizona Trail last year before I did my thru-hike on it. He must have a stash of money somewhere because it seems all he does is hike. He has done the PCT, too, and a bunch of other lesser known or shorter trails. Anyway, he does some good videos. On the AZT he frequently stopped and discussed local plant life. Very interesting.

    Ive been a subscriber of his for a long time. If remember right he is a retired Marine and also does IT type work I think. Single, retired military, no kids.... = money to spend. hahaha.

    He actually put out a video discussing how he finances his life. He's not retired but does get VA Disability. There was equity from selling his home, and savings. He barely makes anything from YouTube and affiliate links. I think Patreon might be coming through for him in a big way, as it does a lot of YouTuber's who have this lifestyle. It's kind of astonishing the number of folks wiling to part with their money to live vicariously through somebody else. I would never do it but hey, I'm sure I spend on things others would find silly.

    Ive been watching them. They seem to be really enjoying the journey. I gained a little more respect for Pink-hot-dog, when I eyed the Eddie Van Halen Frankenstein guitar hanging on the wall in one of the shots from them at home. Wait, come to think of it, it could be Mushrooms.

    I've been watching Jay for a while, I don't think he focuses on the plants and little things as much now that he's trying to keep up with Pocket Rocket, but I'm good with that! Just started watching Mushroom and Pink Hotdog - they are having a great time! Al and Sandra are another nice hiking couple with a daily vlog.

    "Wow wow wee" using mushrooms words and" what a long strange trip its been" using Gerry Garcia words they are done
    These 2 left Springer on January 30 and finished 222 days later she was 681 and he 682 to the finish.
    They had a very well trained hawk hike with them from the 100 mile wilderness AKA Crag Mains which was kinda cool.
    I've only been able to watch a couple completed through hikes because I get bored, but I watched these two from the beginning.
    With there water crossing kiss counts, money shot of the day,eating beagles, the Asian squat,Shaws lovely garden.
    They're real people and I relate they made me laugh and actually made my eyes leak.
    Congratulations to mushroom and pink hotdog.

    Yeah kinda crazy right. I've recently discovered wonderhussy on you tube she's wild not for the timid for sure, but the list of patreon contributions is astonishing! Especially given these times we are in and the stuff being sent to her is on another level . Yep more power to her she's entertaining!
