I’m Amanda and Frank is my co-pilot. We have lived in a van for 9.5+ years. I am a photographer and forager. We enjoy hiking, camping, paddle boarding, climbing and being outside as much as we can. We have countless stories and lessons to share and are always trying to learn new skills and improve in many aspects of life. Thank you for coming along.
#solofemalevanlife #vanlife #wintervanlife
Frank is recovering well 🙏🏼 I appreciate all the love and kindness during this time. It’s been a rough past month but I have faith things will smooth out moving forward.
I had an entirely different video planned for today, another topic video which I had scripted up a plan for, but before I could film it all of this unfolded so instead this video exists. Thank you for your patience and understanding. I’ll be back soon with beautiful nature and short adventures 💜 you’re the best!
Sending 🤗 💞✨🙏 for you both. There was a group exhale over here when the vet said he's doing great 😃 and the relief on your face brought emotional tears . 👅 Also had us 🤣 Bless his heart! Winter can be extra yet it's like it was meant to be to get the cancellation slots. For brief distraction...over here it smells like 💩 above and beyond ordinary and everyone is saying it's the wind because it's going to ❄️ Home on the range 😅 No rain. Hose disconnected. Sooo I'm out there with my large mixing bowl tossing water on the landscape rocks that dogs ya know... yEAH I totally read neighbors post after 🙃 Lucy and Ethel most of the time with us 😅 If you read this, hope it helped to have your mind rest on more than worry ❤ Home sleep catches up for you. Maybe the 🍩 will offer a sugar crash nap ❤
You are an awesome fur baby Mom❤❤❤
Glad the surgery went well for Frank. He's so adorable.
Don’t know how I fell in love with a dog thousands of miles away on CZcams. So glad Frank is doing well and has such a great dog mom.
Hi Amanda. Delighted that Frank is home for some TLC.
BIG love & best wishes from Ireland- John
❤ 🐾 🇮🇪
From a veterinarian… you absolutely did the right thing for both you and Frank! Don’t listen to the nay sayers!!
She's lucky to have Frank as her traveling companion. Animals give unconditional love.
Yup! Right on!
I wish every pet parent were as prepared and responsible as you are with Frank. He’s so lucky to have you! ❤
Your decision-making regarding the ferry and arriving early for the vet appointment strikes me as the height of sane, rational and compassionate thought. I hope it helps to know that there are so many of us listening and caring (and contributing!).
It truly does, thank you 🙏🏼
Life with an older dog can be hard-Frank is lucky he has you. ❤
I really liked when you very plainly stated that you were just sharing and not looking for or encouraging any feed back--good for you to be so evolved to be willing to stand up for yourself and not be open to any kind of unsolicited BS--I admire people who are capable of dealing with life in that manner
You're the bestest fur mom. I'm so glad he's doing good.
First of all, I would like to say how impressed I am over your ability to articulate the situation you and Frank just went through. In listening to your explanation of his condition, why, when and how you made the choices you did was amazing! The fact that Frank is in such excellent health at his age speaks volumes to your care of him. The love you have for him is evident in all you do for him from giving him his favorite donuts to wisely preparing for what may be needed for his care. If anyone has a criticism of you and your choices, they can simply stop watching your channel. No one who is not there with you or who is privy to the day-to-day choices you have to make has a say in anything you post. Frank is YOUR baby and no one has that right to criticize. It amazes me that people seem to believe, because you have allowed them into your life via CZcams, that they have an influence over your decisions. Secondly (and I’m almost done, I promise!), I admire the grace and strength with which you handle the naysayers. I wouldn’t be so kind. I respect and appreciate the honesty that you give us with your videos regarding the real-life you experience in your van life. Life is life and CZcamsrs that present their adventures as all roses and honey aren’t of any real value to the rest of us armchair observers. So hats off to you Amanda!! As always, I pray for you and Frank and will continue to do so! 🥰🥰🥰
So well said,Thank you. You took the words right out of my brain! Again, I thank you!
Amanda, I love you n Frank too♥️
What mamacat said❤❤❤
Yeah @mamacat315! I'm so glad there are people like you in this CZcams world. I agree with everything you said here. It's quite clear to me that every decision for Frank was made with love. Keep up the good work @tidelinetoalpine. We'll be cheering for you.
I’m so happy Frank will be on the road to recovery! We all love Frank❣️
So heart wrenching to see your pets suffering, and especially making those tough decisions. So glad Frank is on the other side of this, now you can relax and take care of yourself. Healing vibes to you both! ❤️
Thank you 🙏🏼 we appreciate it. Wishing you a great day.
@@tidelinetoalpine you’re most welcome. Did you get the equivalent for the exchange? I paid in USD. Just curious how it works.
Yup, I get paid the CDN of equivalent of whatever comes through for super thanks and earn ad sense in USD before it’s converted to Canadian.
@@SoloHiker1CZcams takes 30%, which I think is the highest. I'm not sure about the others.
So glad he doesn’t have cancer. He is certainly a special guy. And his poor naked bum! I keep commenting before it’s over and so I keep editing. Just so glad he pooped and is on the mend. We all get to make our own educated decisions for ourselves and our pets and we get to stand by them. I’m super happy Frank has a great surgeon
You know you’re ‘going through it’ with an animal companion when a poo is cause for tears & celebration! 🤗 @tidelinetoalpine
YAY FRANK! 🎉 celebrate your victory! Swimming, hiking, chewing sticks (and logs), paddle boarding, or just meandering through a field, it’s all open to you again now. Enjoy a long and active life buddy. You deserve it and your fur parent is awesome to take such good care of you. You ROCK AMANDA! ❤
Just want to say we know you will make the right decisions for Frank. You did the right thing. We love you and we love Frank. Please give him a hug for us.
Amanda, please know my husband and I have been thinking of you and Frank all week. We are both so happy and emotional that Frank is recovering and is safe and sound with you in your cozy love-filled van home. You are such a lovely girl and Frank is such a dear. It's a relief the surgery is behind him. You have made excellent decisions for Frank. You are a smart cookie to plan and follow through with the medical care needed for Frank and he is a lucky dog to have YOU loving him and caring for him as you do. Such an awesome dog! Take care of yourself and try to rest. Thanks for sharing this time with us. We will stay tuned.❤
Thank you for thinking of us ☺️
So glad his surgery went well. Frank sounds like a trooper. I think he has a few adventures left in him. ❤ Sending love, good vibes, and healing energy.
Right on , my exact sentiment 👍
He’s such a trooper, it’s inspirational
You were brilliant to get you and Frank to his appointment early before the snow got worse. You are the BEST dog Mom in the world. Healing and loving vibes to you and Frank
🐢🐩🐕🐶❣️❄️🌙🌊🐢
Elderly animals are exactly like we are when we get old. They can’t tell us what is happening, but we can read them and do our best to help them out. Frank is in good care with you, he trust your decision as you do. Surgery was probably the best way to try get better this leg. Now it is just a matter of time, observe how it evolves and the recovery takes patience and dedication. ❤ Stay safe you two and wish you only the best. 🌹👋🏽
Hugs and kisses to Frank from me and my 6 dogs (furbabies). We all watch for Frank in your videos. 🙏 For Frank's healing
Cheers to you for your firm advocacy for Frank and yourself. ❤ Being a caregiver for an older or otherwise fragile pet is by far the hardest and most precious role we play in the lives of our animals. Sending you much love and support.
We appreciate your life and the challenges you faced as part of being a solo RV traveler. You are very much loved by many people here on the channel. Be safe and be careful from city life and the snowy conditions. Keep the faith in your journey. 🎉
Greetings from Laos. She's loved around the world. I enjoy watching her videos.
One thing about doing everything you can for your pupper is that you'll never regret it❤! Your a good dog Mom Amanda. Franks blessed to have you!
You are SO SMART to switch ferry trips to get to vet location BEFORE daybreak.
Dont listen to any of the negativeness... You are a good mom to Frank. You take care of you my dear! Prayers for both of you. Much love ❤ Mama Ree
Life on life's terms can be difficult at times, you did the right thing for Frank. Keep telling your truth, that's the beauty of your channel.
"I felt held".. that brought a tear to my eye. Amanda, you put so much sweetness and kindness out into the world, sharing like you do.. of course that is always going to come back to you (tenfold). Much love to you and Frank ❤
Healing & good vibes for you and Frank. ❤
Frank is so with it yet & in relatively good spirits; I would've made the same surgery decision. Rest up & feel better, Frank & Amanda. Sending good energy your way.❤
That sound of Frank snoring actually is the best sound to hear. This type of obstacle all dog pawparents go through. My career is important but if Tofu's sick, I'm at home. He's more important! Get well Frank. We love you.
Continued Prayers up for Healing for Frank and Strength for you 🙏 ❤️🐕 🙏
I'm a new sub but I've been binge watching all your videos and letting ads run. I believe your channel is going to take off and is in the process of that now even. My thoughts are with you and Mr. Frank. Prayers for you both. You really seem like a smart woman and Frank is so very blessed to have you. 🧡🧡🧡🧡💛💛💛💛🌻🌻🌻
Thank you and Welcome 🤗 I appreciate your faith in my channel 🙏🏼
Well said, and welcome.
Thanks Amanda for sharing this journey with us! Frank is such a special pup, and brings so much joy to this community! You and Frank are so loved!! Sending love back to you both!!💚💜
Oh this is so precious 😭 Frank finding his chew on his pillow and he looks so out of it 🫠. You made him such a cosy nest there he looks he’s having the best sleep ever. ❤
Sending hugs and love to you and Frank. It is obvious in the last while, that despite his back foot, he is really a happy guy. He enjoys his food, sticks, his treats, snow, seeing Flossie, toys and all the fun bits of his doggy life. I am so glad he is doing well, and I must admit, I did chuckle when he was so stoned after surgery 😜. You are the best mom to him ☮️
Oh I got a good chuckle out of it as well. It sucks when our furry friends need surgery but coming out of anesthesia is always so extra cute.
You, absolutely, made the right decisions regarding the care of Frank. He is lucky to have you. Prayers for a speedy recovery and more adventuring!
Love his snoring 😴
Me too! It’s a constant reminder he’s alive 💜
Frank looks great, trudging thru snow and tasting...adorable.
You are a very discerning Mum and obviously know your boy.
Your bond speaks for itself. xxx
So relieved Frank's surgery went well...dogs are resilient, he's already showing good signs!
you're a great mom...you made a good decision.
Thanks for update
You're both in our hearts and prayers 💜💛
Take care, I know this is stressful. Frank is fortunate to have such a wonderful and caring person in his life. Have a speedy recovery Frank, you are loved. ❤
What you’re doing for Frank is admirable. We love him too and hope he gets well soon!
Best wishes Amanda ❤
Gary & Catherine
Thank you 🙏🏼 I hope you both have a wonderful day
As dog mommy to my sweet pal Chester, my heart goes out to you. I would have done the same no question. You and Frank always have our full support. I love your channel so very much, been here a long time and always here for you both. Your channel is so special and I feel sure it will take off. Many prayers and blessings from us. I love Frankie so so so much :) Frank loves you so much and he has a lot of life- a great life full of adventures ahead :)
Amanda, please take good care of yourself! This good boy cannot do without you. Take it easy. One day at a time. You two dearests, happy adventures are waiting, because you have each other!
I went through a similar situation with a cat years ago. No surgery but he ended up going to 3 different animal hospitals including one in another state. Lost a lot of sleep, shed a lot of tears, spent a lot of money, but it was worth it in the end. He had a few good years after that. Without surgery I ended up spending over $5K and that was 20 years ago. Good healthcare is expensive. Whether the patient is human or an animal it takes a lot of staff, equipment, facilities, etc to provide good healthcare. Pet insurance wasn't that common back then so out of pocket was the only option.
I'm looking forward to seeing Frank get back on his feet and having a good swim when the weather warms up.
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼 I think this was well worth it to help Frankie and he got such good care.
You’re a good doggie mom. Heal fast Frank ❤🐾
Oh my goodness....my husband and I clapped with delight once Frankaliscious was back in the van!!! You are an excellent pet parent, Amanda. A few days stuck in the city in a snowstorm were sooooo worth it! Sending you and Frankaliscious heaps of love and many hugs from Ontario🫶🎉🤗🐾🦴
Thanks Susan, I’m glad we’re through it.
@@tidelinetoalpine 🫶🫶 yes, it must be such a great relief.
Thanks! For Frank treats.
Thank you ☺️ Frank loves treats, we appreciate it.
I think it's the best thing
I took my dog to vet today
She has almost same thing going on her back toes are going under --- she is 14 😢
considering wheelchair 😊
Best wishes for your puppy. Franks chariot is a Thule chariot double and it works great for taking him on adventures
I am so happy that Frank is doing well! ❤ I hope you’re able to get some rest. You are such a good mom! 😊❤
Love to you and Frank ❤
Thank you 😊 I appreciate you and hope you have a wonderful day.
I get it, was stationed in Germany after Nam, later lived in Chicago for 17+yrs so you can handle it. I personally LOVE how you LOVE Frank! I & my dog are both seniors, we LOVE YOU & FRANK❤❤❤
How absolutely precious you and Frank have become to me. The honesty with which you share your thoughts and life makes me feel privileged to be able to help support your channel in anyway I can. You are an amazing person in so many ways, and I just thank you for all that you share . I send love and healing positive energy to you and Frank. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Lori, we appreciate you 💜
All my love to Frank and you.💚💜💙💚💜💙 I know the anxiety of waiting for a fur baby to get out of surgery. It totally sucks but I am so happy that he is doing well.
Get some rest !
As another veterinarian, I too think you made a good choice for his future QOL.
Oh my goodness I'm happy the test came out okay. Oh my goodness Frank they shave so much hair off of you poor pups. ❤ fast recovery 🙏. Mommy giving Frank treats so sweet. Thank you for sharing about Frank's health. You. Thank you 😊 have an amazing night.
When the direction; choice; idea; decision is the right one? The Universe shows it's agreement and all the doors open so your journey can flow. I have really enjoyed this video. Thank you for Frank's update, (I can't believe that the people I choose to follow and support, with my likes and comments and shares, feel they must justify themselves to their audiences. But, there you go.) Enjoy the snow amongst people who care for "our boy's" heart and soul as much as you do 🙃💜
29:09 frank you are the absolute cutest! Stealing hearts all over the world ❤
Hi, we know what you are going through. We have a crestie dog with really bad arthritis. She lives a fabulous life and is babied beyond belief. Now you have done the best for your Frank! You are a great fur Mum. We send Frank lots of love and get well soon hugs.❤❤❤❤
Oh Amanda Frank is going to give you a big thanks Mom for doing this. I can’t imagine how hard it was to go through that, so many emotions. Sending prayers for you both. I am looking forward to his new walk.😊
I'm so impressed with how you handled this rough time. You are such a strong, smart person. I'm sending you and Frank positive vibes and healing energy. All the best to you and Sweet Frank.
I think you handled it perfectly Amanda and Frank is going to be so much happier now and able to swim and play again ❤🎉🎉🎉. I'm so very happy for you both!
so good to hear frank is going to be okay.. big hugs to both of you. you're a great pet mom!!
I am happy to hear that Frank is doing well. I will keep him in my prayers for a quick recovery. Sending hugs to you and Frank .😊💜
There is no doubt in my mind that you are a responsible, loving pet owner. Not that it matters - but I think you have made the right decision. 🙏🏻that Frank has a speedy recover.y. Take care of yourself too though, make sure to eat well.
So glad Frank is recovering well.
I am so happy for you and Frank, he is such a special dog. I have his sticker on my laptop so I can see his adorable face. Love to you and Frank
Hey Amanda, I’m glad you were able to stay in the parking lot at the vets office so you could stay safe. I am so happy about Frank praying and believing for a speedy recovery and you did the right thing by having the surgery. You are giving him an even better quality of life because he is the happiest boy you can see that every time you see him you and Frank are amazing. You guys always make my day. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to your next video. You guys be safe out there and stay warm.🇺🇸♥️🙏👍🫶🐾🏔️🚐🇨🇦
Thanks LaNette, I hope you have a great weekend.
29:12 I realize it's because he just had a really rough day but that is by far the cutest Frank has ever been. OMG so cute.
Thanks for the update, we've been waiting to hear the good news. Sounds like he's well on the way to a happy summer of swimming!
That’s what we’re hoping for! Lots of sticks and swimming.
Thank you for this update. I was crying happy tears. The whole way through for you and for Frank!!!! I just love at the end of your videos when you do the sweet, pretty, cute, silly shots of him, especially this one with his little tongue hanging out and him snoring, how sweet ❤
Thank you ☺️ the final end clip of Frank is always the perfect send off, especially to leave a challenging video feeling good.
Awe Amanda I’m sorry and happy at the same time! Many, many blessings to you and Frank!❤❤❤
I love that you show the ups and downs, the good and not so good. Some people can't hang with you when you are down... but there are many that will and will support you! My mom is in the hospital on a ventilator right now and your youtube community has been so nice to me... My mom did open her eyes, but her brain isn't functioning normally. Anyways, i like when people are real and post real life things
Sending love and strength to help you and your mom through this difficult time 💜
@@tidelinetoalpine Thank you Amanda. That means a great deal to me. 🙏 💙
Oh Frankie baby, I’m sorry you had to go through it. You are such a good boy. My pitbull is 13 and has arthritis. I’m so glad Amanda is your human!❤❤❤
I am so happy that Frank is doing so good you're such a good mom you've lost so much sleep but you got to take care of yourself too
For what it's worth, my little dog is twelve and though I worked and gave him the best life I could, eventually he got cancer and I was between jobs, so I put it on my credit card. My van life fell apart when my van broke down irreparably and money went into a car which I sleep in. After surgery he had heart issues so on pills and I think we can never fully plan for all the ups and downs but he and though I"m broke and in debt, he is my heart and responsibilty. More than all that, he loves life too much for me to take it from him. All the best ❤
Proud of you for setting your boundaries! Love to you & Frank 🫶🏼
🫶🏻 thank you.
Love to you and Frank! Frank and you are lucky to have one another. 💜
Much Love to Frank , always put a smile on my face. Thank you and take care!
What a blessing! Im so happy he got his surgery and is doing so well! I hope you both can catch upon sleep now. 🤗Continued prayers & healing energy coming your way. And much love to you both! 💜🙏🐾 You're the best dog Mom!
Constant prayers for Frank from Iowa in the states. Frank is one of our families most watched and checked on. Strength for you also to get through this. Love you guys!! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🦋
Looking forward to watching Franks healing journey. You are a great pet mom!!
Glad to hear Frank is mending well after his surgery! He's welcome to join the "Bionic Boomers" club - those of us of a certain age w/metal implants in our joints!
You are both lucky to have one another and we are lucky to have both of you. Keep doing you.
More healing energy for Frank and supportive energy to you for taking care of the both of you.
Such joyous news that he is doing well and will have even better quality of life. You already treat him so wonderfully, he is the most loved dog I think❤
Your real self is what we are here for, love how authentic you are! Your the only one who knows Frank well enough to make the right decision for him, he loves you and trusts you to do what's best for him. ❤. PS Frank needs a bum warmer! 🧣🔥😅
Hi Amanda, you are the best dog mommy ever. I don't have any pets but you did the best thing for Frank. As you were sharing your story I was envisioning Frank this coming spring running around full of energy like a new puppy. Take care of you while Frank is recovering. I went though some stressful trying months last year with my husbands health. We were in and out of the hospital and specialist offices due to infections in his legs from diabetes so I know how stressful this is right now for you. Sending hugs and prayers to you and Frank. ❤
Sending healing energy to your husband 🫶🏻
God bless you & Frank & well done to the medical vet team. You have done the right thing
❤️🙏
you are my favorite dynamic duo. Amanda you are the best dog mom!
Amanda, I stop in from time to time to say hi to you and Frank and I'm always reminded when watching your videos what a wonderful wholesome soul you are. 😊 I'm so glad you got Frank to his specialist before the snow dump and he got all his antibiotics and his foot is good now👍 Hope you have got a good night's rest since that night. PS I love coffee and a great pile of donuts😁
You are a good mom and a friend to Frank 🐶he is blessed to have .😇
You’ve always made wise well informed decisions regarding Frank and I have no doubt you will continue to do so.
For Frank’s account from the quadrupeds - Roxanne, Confetti, Fancy, Tessa and Gray.
Thank you for the pack support 🙏🏼
We’re lucky that you share so much with us. I hope for ease and wisdom during the challenges. ❤
❤️❤️❤️You are a wonderful pet Mom and Frank is the best baby boy. ❤️❤️❤️Love is the best medicine right now for both of you. Sunshine and I are sending healing thoughts.❤❤❤ Hoping for a quick and full recovery ☮️☮️☮️
You are the best dog mom! Don’t listen to the negative Nellys. Sending love and light to you and Frank. ❤️
Very much appreciate this video. You're informed and caring and careful in how you've supported Frank. I'm glad you've been able to make these choices on his behalf. Thank you!
