Great point to slow down and a lot of State Parks were not build for Big Rigs. Loved the video

Thank you for another fun video, I think of all RV couples I follow to learn this lifestyle,..you guys eat the most delicious foods!😊 We may have to re-think about getting a big 5th wheel to live in,..we have been looking & studying RV's for over 3 years, & realize that if we go "BIG", we may lose some freedoms to roam better,...anyways..you guys are great! Can't believe packers won again!!??, I gave up on the Vikings long time ago!-Jen & Kurt , MN

When we first started researching we went back and forth between a 5th and a motorhome. We love our Tiffin & at 35 ft we can get to some places the Big Rigs can't. But still, times that we are too big! Glad we can help you guys on your journey & Smart to be doing research! We recommend going to the Minneapolis RV Show in Jan/Feb! Sit in the RVs there and see what makes you feel like your home! Thanks- Joel, Deb & 🐕 Maya

When Lisa and I left full time in 2020 stayed 2 weeks at El Dorado. In fact went thru there yesterday heading to our home base in Claflin Ks.

Stressful roads are a big reason we downsized. Kansas City can be a nightmare to drive through. Last time we drove it, they rerouted the freeway for construction and we had no idea what to do because our GPS wasn't acting right.

Sounds like a quiet Harvest Host. Yeah, definitely need a bear after conversing some of the roads leading to your sites. Sounds like a good road trip travling South. We've camped quite a bit in Missouri since Sara and mike lived there for so long, but we haven't camped at many of their state parks. We haven't camped much in Kansas. The hot tub will really help that calf muscle. 😂. Good to know about the EZ Pass and the friendliest toll guy in the history of toll guys. Be sare, Bill and DeAnna.

The roads to get into some State campgrounds can be stressful to drive! Cracking a beer does help once there and set up! 🍻 We had nice stays at both State Parks- but Maya liked the hiking better in Missouri! Thanks- Joel, Deb & 🐕 Maya

We have definitely been on some sketchy roads. Google Maps took us on an 8 mile logging road in the UP of Michigan to get to our campground up there.

Hey guys dont know how we missed this one. Really liked the driving advice and following with a drink excellent advice! We love doing movie quotes that was a great one Joel! Oh my goodness I felt so bad when you were talking how tired and sore you are but luckily the next place has a hot tub cause was that the place that they closed it? Oh my that would then be even more disappointing. Very interesting on the toll booths and the tickets. Thanks for taking us along enjoying the trips!

We don't like all the overgrown trees and low-hanging branches. We have met another rig on a tight road and it is not fun at all. Inquiring minds want to know, is this considered a DDD because of the flying bird poop? ~ Shion and Matthew

A lot of the campgrounds, private or governmental need to cut back their trees! We pray the whole way on the tight road not to meet anyone! This was not a DDD! lol Thanks - Joel, Deb & 🐕 Maya
