Robert, we watch a lot of different RV youtube channels, but there is something special about your channel. It's the whole ball of wax, the music, your soothing voice, excellent camerawork. I could literally watch for hours. It's so relaxing. Thank you and keep up the good work. If you're ever in middle TN, we would love to show you around. Have a great day, riding in my RV!!!

We live in the Bay area and one of our favorite trips is taking out our Class B up 101 to central Oregon. Crabbing is one of our favorite things to do. As you can see CA is not RV friendly and having a van type RV is the best way to travel here to see everything in detail.

I grew up in Morro Bay and lived there for 25 years and I’ve made this trip more times than I can count both just in a vehicle and towing a trailer. Thankfully, I never did it on a three day weekend but the views in the scenery are spectacular.

The redwoods are arguably my favorite place to see. Great video Robert. I've always wondered if it was busy during summer and i can see that it is. The two times I went were in mid to late April and was pretty much alone on everything. Still rained alot but the rain is what adds to the allure of the redwoods

@kellyjohnson3617 Жыл бұрын

The Mendocino coastline is so beautiful. Not many places to pullover with a trailer. And it’s close enough to the Bay Area that one weekends it gets busy. Westport is the furthest north location on hwy 1 that faces the coast. It’s not as crowded. Lots of charm and lots of twists and turns. So many beautiful turnouts.

Hey Robert, nice to be out on the road with you this morning. I was just in the area last week, hanging out at Point Reyes and Bodega Bay. I think the road out to Dillon Beach is more interesting/scenic that the place itself( especially the rock formations right where you turn off and head down the hill), so you didn't miss much by turning around. At 3:06 you pass The Tides, where they have a mock-up of the cafe from the movie complete with crows on the roof and a TV playing the telephone booth scene in a window. Next time you're in Bodega Bay, I highly recommend Spud Point Crab Co -- the best clam chowder on the west coast. Until next week, happy trails!

I am really, really happy you were able to camp at Manchester State Campground and visit Manchester State Beach! That place holds a special place in my heart as my Dad and I used to camp there when I was a kid. The campground site used to go back closer to the sand dunes near the beach but they closed them to protect the wildlife. There was a trail that lead from the campground to the beach that was pretty convenient. You will have to go back someday and watch the sunset from the beach as they are absolutely stunning! Thank you for making my day Robert (RIP Dad...)!

@jimp.7286 Жыл бұрын

Wow! The camera makes the blue ocean look like a florescent dream. But it's dangerous. That's because people like me want to stare and when you're driving there, it's a long way down in some places! Whew! Yes - it looked crowded. Everyone wanted a piece of it. Can you blame them? A lot of places no longer allow overnight camping in cali because of the homeless problem sorry to say. And state park prices seem stupid high for a state that has such high taxes on everything already. Oregon has the best state parks in our opinion and priced fairly last time I was there. Avenue of the giants is where I recommend everyone see at least once. The campground next to headquarters is awesome as you camp under giants, there's a big museum and summertime campfire entertainment that's informative, (within walking distance),. A big river is running nearby used in the summer for swimming and fishing. Plus the smell of redwoods everywhere is incredible. That's it! Gonna start prepping the rv for a trip to the redwoods. It's because of you sir. Cheers. 👍

@@IsaacCloud Yes, there are sucky people everywhere. That's why I live in a very rural area of northern NV. But you're the one that brought the subject up. I was just pointing out that CA is incredibly beautiful and that it's the people there (some of them) that make it bad. I think the people that say, "CA sux" are talking about the people, not the geography there. I'm fortunate enough to be able to run over the hill and visit these areas and then retreat to my isolation. Also as I'm sure you are aware, there are literally millions of really good people in CA as well.
