I’m glad darling Caroline is happy on her own but gotta tell you, which you already know. Life is not the same without her and those adventure bikes even take the boys away. I just miss you so much as a family unit, and the happy times those brought for all-of us. Guess I hate kids to grow up and hate change. Our two girls are grown in college and there are times I sit and cry, it just went by too fast, And I want to start all over again 😢😢😢😢😢 I know you totally get it!

Awesome video as always EFRT. Y'all's adventures are always so epic and the meals that Carol prepares always look delicious but most of all y'all always pray before and after y'all's meals that is what I think is most epic thing of all. Keep up the great work and stay safe and drive safe. Thanks for letting us ride along with y'all on y'all's adventures.

That muscle memory Jeep wave, I get it 😊 That roast looked so delicious! Quartzsite tends to get tons of winter visitors, especially during the winter solstice time. Plus, in the winter AZ is very popular with Barrett Jackson auto auction, WM golf tournament, then spring training for ML baseball, AND we are hosting the NCAA Final Four Championship game this year! We have too many Californian transplants for my liking. I always say, "Don't California my Arizona!" 😊

Watching this brings back so many wonderful memories of my husband and me driving around teh desert and hills in his 1956 International pickup, original engine, original transmission. The only modifications my husband did to it was to shorten and raise the rear bumper because it kept getting hung up on berms, resulting with us not getting traction. He also installed a lift kit to gain more ground clearance and installed larger off-road tires. He also replaced the padding on the seats, so we would still bounce & hit our heads on the ceiling if he hit a bump hard enough. Those springs in the seat could still launch pretty good! LOL!!! I miss that truck. I remember when the engine started running rough, so he stopped to see what the problem was. He found that one of the spark plugs was cracked and one was coated with oil. We were miles away from any main road and temps were over 100 (my husband loved the heat), so you didn't want to be stranded in those conditions. For years my husband had been exploring that part of the desert, the abandoned mines and claims. He knew of one place where the miners had their own little shop to repair their equipment and vehicle, but blew up all the buildings when the government took back their claim. So we headed to that site. When we arrived, my husband began walking the entire area looking for any signs of a spark plug, he searched one half and I searched the other half. We found a total of 8 spark plugs, 3 different types. My husband pulled out 2, cleaned them up, set the gap, replaced the two bad spark plugs, started the engine, and she was good as new. Now, those are the vehicles that car manufacturers are afraid of, vehicles that are easy and quick to repair so majority of people can fix them themselves. The International was still running in early 2000. I love seeing you all exploring and making memories that will keep filling your hearts with laughter, love, smiles, and the beauty God created for us. May God continue to bless and protect you all!

I wonder what she noticed ?? Very excited to see the walk-around of the new vehicle! Thank you for being so generous with sharing your experiences with equipment and what you discover in nature! Enjoyed learning a new term “Boone-dockers!” 😊👋🏼 Enjoy the lovely road adventures! (Yes; I noticed you using the yellow plastic rocks you used to level your vehicle when you stopped to camp! I giggled!). Carole, you really have such generous and gracious home-away-from-home skills! What a meal! My compliments! ✨🙏🏼👋🏼

I laughed so much when Carol asked you if you just did a Jeep wave. I have a Wrangler that we had in Australia for a few years before shipping it back to New Zealand at the beginning of covid. Queenslanders were generally pretty good at the Jeep wave but kiwis not so much. Some do and I always get a kick out of someone waving back.

I appreciate the mixing up of music genres. I tend to gravitate to instrumental/lo-fi, mood music for presentations like yours. I was not wild about the jerky frame changes @ 5:55. For the more important/dramatic clips I like slowing the frame rate down. If you’re filming at 60fps I would recommend slowing down more of those transitions with appropriate mood music.

I used to wear those for hiking, but after I discovered Altra (Lone Peak and Timp and Olympus) I can't wear any other shoe brand now. Hope you have enough gasoline to last until you leave CA. I left 4 years ago and have not returned. 😥 Take care EFRT.

We have been taking it more and more off-road trails and if handles the off-campus stuff pretty amazing. The low pro top really helps. It has air shocks on the back and we lowered them for the rough off-road trail. That’s why maybe it looked a bit squatted at the time. It definitely takes a bit of getting used to driving a big truck on the trails rather than the nimble Jeeps but we are sure having fun with it.
