Video Transcription

alright so we all know about the hammock chair well we should know unless you're new at this but it's a great little piece of gear to have nice to be able to sit down out here off the ground now I said before this one here you see in my videos if every would like to have one jeep from econo challenge that's from it comes from him he makes them and sells them so I'll just put the link his channel and if you want one you just get ahold of him I'm pretty sure he still makes it oh but that's not the video today Leo today is a an idea of my sweet bike now us when we come in the woods we always have this and then you know maybe a little blanket for colder nights and she came up with something instead of bringing two she just brings one now so don't go away she's gonna show you what it is ok so now Josie is ready to present her invention why did you do this oh you can read my blog no I I like the thought of having a blanket on me when I'm sitting on my hammock chair so I thought I shouldn't add this wings right here I am sitting down so warm you up ok so you're calling this the butterfly hammock chair yeah looks looks good ok so Josie is going to give us an example of what this thing can do alright so that's what she looks like now Josie is going to show us how it works it looks pretty comfortable right there it's nice and wide I think it's yep they're cold at night there by the fire oh cool they get nice and warmed up in there right on that's nice hmm wonder does it do anything else yes you can use it as a ground cover you can use it as a hammock chair and you can use it as something else she's going to show us just take this off Oh some kind of a cloak or shawl or whatever cool

170 ha so so you're I think I'm happy about it everything is covered leaving the ground there okay oh you don't have to sit on that well it's versatile you can't fly do I look like you look like a real butterfly now okay well there you go there's the butterfly hammock by josie Barton well done slowly well the first thing right away that I like is how wider it is so you know most amateurs they have to go like this and you don't have much whipped at the top or your shoulders this one covers pretty well cool anyway we thought we'd show you that you know show this to you guys and you know it's not a something that we keep to ourselves if this something that interests you like she said the blog will give you all the measurements and everything i'll just link it also below this video now this is just a test run this is not even wool even though it looks like wool is just a bunch of fabrics together so it's not the best but if you're a wool person I would strongly suggest to do this out of wood wood there's a blooper out of wool I know that's what I'm going to do well Josie anyway wool is a terrific natural product it's what it's the best thing that that exists out there when it comes to cover or clothes or whatever again I'll put another blog if you're not if you're not familiar with wool you can read all about it it's cool but you know you can make it out of other materials like the material Jeep made me I don't know what it is but of course it's a lot more lightweight you know if you're a lightweight backpacker this is not for you for sure but for us instead of bringing a blue blanket and having chair will we just bring one of course when it rolls up you know it's a little bit bigger but you know we're willing to carry it so those I think I'm hearing your stomach growling or maybe it's mine yours too okay it's getting dark we got to start a fire and get cooking what is Josie doing let's go check it out

haha very smart saving on resources huh you guys remember this bench well it's full of pitch you know that that's a good idea right and sitting on this bench you have a view full of you anyway Creek is just there so all right waiting for some coals will be coming soon and we'll start cooking yep she's going down she's going down right time to cook Josie made a nice pile here future use I'm going to do this pull out some

go back in there get warmed up for me this here um this doesn't really need to cook didn't have time to prepare anything but these are Greek potatoes I think they're called so just going to put them where your gloves okay and our main dish you've probably seen before you got nice pieces of meat in there some oranges you got peppers are these called again Josie bok choy and a nice little whole bunch of onions and anyway some sauce good stuff trust me so put that slowly cook we will be right back

all right time to play a little bit with it oh man this is smell that and that neat looks so tender to going to be some dangerous eating right there

that meat is falling apart sister okay she's done for sure a few guys can see but this looks kind of yummy is that okay show you I don't burn myself put this back a little bit that stays warm while I'm doing this demon ok so those are the what they call Greek potatoes I'm just spiced up okay all right now it's time yep to eat okay give this couple don't you like it when you have a lot more meat and vegetables we're down a little bit of juices okay and next we shall pour some my poor foot joke smells good Josie okay there you go so that's tonight's meal time to dig in hello Josie made us a nice pile there and I threw in just a few of them and the fire started up nicely so put a few more

if you happen to fall in a ditch not fallen tree but find a dead tree either pine or balsam fir or even spruce great thing to collect is the knots and what's around the knot this is contained SAP hold on the light doesn't look too good yes you are saying this is a big not if you can find a whole bunch of them they'll keep your fire nice and hot and going for quite a long time you just throw them in give it a little bit of time and it's going to play them up here a little bit more of these wait for it to catch see it took Oh less than five minutes and look how nice and hot cheese burning so imagine you can define bigger ones you know five six seven eight of them have a good spare of some hot nice burning nuts and even around the knots there take the whole thing to pull a SAP alright guys so it'll be it for this video thank you again for joining us it's going to get dark soon so it'll be a little harder to to fill so I'll just leave you you know a few seconds with the fire just relax and we'll see you some other time in the woods you
