Thanks 👍

Beaufort Sea is in the Arctic Ocean so calling it the Arctic Ocean is also correct. What was it like living there?

That’s terrifying 🙀

@@NickandJulie agreed. I am afraid of heights. Facing that fear there wasn't a cure

Not sure! No ‘i’ seems to be how everyone pronounces it so we just go along with it 😆

It’s a Lance. We did a tour of it a few videos down from this one.

Thank you! 😃

There’s a full video on our channel. All the places should be there! I believe it’s called ‘San Antonio travel guide’ or something similar.

Yes it’s called ‘ultimate San Antonio travel guide’ uploaded a year ago.

@@NickandJulie thank you so much this is really helpful! :) Have a nice day!

Awesome! Glad it was helpful. Enjoy that slice it’s delicious 🤤

The best way to end a day 💛 have you been on this one by Danger Charters?

@NickandJulie no. But did one through Floridays. But looking them up online now and they might be called Fish Monster & Island Jane now? It was a nice group size. Very relaxing.

@@heathershappell334 ohh haven’t heard of that one yet; will have to look it up! Any sunset sail you can’t go wrong with ⛵️

What are your favorite things to do in Marathon & Islamorada?

@@NickandJulie Anne’s Beach (free). Kayaking , I have a great rescue center there that I think it’s only two dollars ,camping , fishing , curry hammock, State Park, Jonathan Dickinson State Park nice to kayak also

@@prayforthe_1644 getting out on the water is the best thing to do when in the Florida Keys. We’ve stayed at Curry Hammock and kayaked there a few years back. So beautiful!

We are from Columbus, Ohio but we travel full time now.

That’s so cool! 5 years is a good while to be up there. I bet you have some cool stories to tell!

Thank you so much! 💛 God bless you too!

We think the same thing sometimes. Just in awe and amazement that this is our life. And in our opinion, if you’re in awe of your life, you’re living it right. And it’s all credit and glory to God because we’re nothing special. And yes, it’s not all fun and games but that stuff is minor. This lifestyle is a lot more unpredictable than a ‘normal’ one but that’s caused us to put our trust in God in those sticky situations out of our control and He came through every time. It’s been cool to witness. But with the humidity, I’m okay with it. It does make my hair poofy/ frizzy. My skin loves it though. Back in Ohio, it would get really dry in winters but here, I’ve had no problems with that! I know the humidity can be hard on some people.

@NickandJulie I think the same way. I believe God provides opportunities for us. It took some of us (me) longer than it should have to leave the bad ones alone and enjoy the good. Better late than never, right? Are there love bugs in Ohio?

@@trentcarbino921 definitely better late than never! I don’t think we swarms of them up in Ohio. At least we’ve never seen them the 20+ years we’ve lived there.

@NickandJulie If you've never dealt with love bugs, you are in for a real experience. What a nuisance they are. Nick, I like that Ariat hat. I've been looking for one just like it, so far, no luck.

@@trentcarbino921 Nick says thanks! 😃

Awesome tips! Thank you!

Yes! 💯 great tips!

Aww 🥲 hope you get a chance to come back but at least you will have 9 years in a place you love.

That’s a lot of driving in a short amount of time! The fall colors should be happening then so that will be awesome. Have fun and be safe out there!

Thank you so much! I do take probably longer than I should trying to find music to accompany the video well so I’m so glad you noticed!

@@NickandJulie my husband & I both definitely noticed & loved it!

Simply didn’t see the I there. Thought it was a U until after the video. How would you like to be skewered on the internet for mispronouncing one letter?

Just curious. Did you actually talk to anyone in town, or did you do a hit and run drone and video session and drive to Homer? If you talked to anyone about the town, and got the rich history you recant from a local, you would have never mispronounced it…been in the TV for decades on both sides of the camera: You were not skewered…😂

@@5AcresandaMoose it’ll be okay if someone with a few thousand views on a small channel on KZfaq accidentally mispronounced the town name. Love the dichotomy of how one commenter is excited to see their town on KZfaq and another is really offended that one letter was mispronounced 😆

​@NickandJulie Don't worry about it--You'll do better next time. 😊

Thank you so much! There wasn’t much on the internet when we were renovating so I’m glad this is helpful. I wish we knew the name of that color. It was some left over paint we had from when we remodeled our house and we got some new paint by color matching at Lowe’s. So we have no idea! Sorry! But getting a truck camper is so exciting! Hope you have lots of fun in it and make awesome memories.

Okay!

It seems that way. I believe we were already on the rocks when I pulled the phone out to film the few seconds on the rocks before putting it away to get back on the kayak. I was paddling too and it didn’t help the surf and wind pushed us on them. The entire paddling from where we were back to the kayak launch site took about 45 minutes. Thank God the wind and surf was in the direction we were paddling back otherwise not sure how long we would be struggling out there trying to fight the wind and surf. Probably wouldn’t be able to and would be pushed into the middle or other side of the lake at best judging from how we both weren’t able to fight it to stay off the rocks. I was only able to get a few minutes of that 45 minutes on video between paddling. I didn’t want to even take the time to do that but made myself do it figured if we did make it out I’d kick myself for not getting any footage at all. Yes, for KZfaq since that is what we do. Thankful to God he kept us safe and everything turned out okay despite our dumb decision to go out there that day. If the wind and surf were going in the opposite direction- I can’t even think about what could have happened. This was a situation where you know you’re in danger and you’re this close 🤏to things going very wrong and you try to focus and stay calm despite the panic which I think we did a good job of. I appreciate the comment it gives me perspective of what the viewer watching might be thinking. I can see how it looks that way.

We currently use the dji mini 3.

We learned that the hard way. But grateful God kept us safe despite the dumb choice to go out there that day. Glad you made it out safely too when that wind hit!

Yes we love a warm sunny winter! So much better than Ohio winters 😏 We spent winter in Florida before with the truck camper a few years ago but winter in the Florida Keys is it’s own special thing! 🐬💦🏖️

@NickandJulie That is how we do it here in Florida. Sunny, hot and rainy sprinkled with a few deceptive cool nights only to get blistering hot again. The older I get, the less I like it. I plan on traveling like you do when I get things lined up. Preferably in a cooler climate. Have an awesome day.

@@trentcarbino921 I had some health issues some years back and was very sensitive to heat during that time so I can understand that. It does take some time to get things in order to be able to hit the road full time. I believe it took us almost 2 years. Just keep chugging along and the day will come!

Thank you! Not sure. We film with an iPhone and a DJI mini 3 drone. The mini 3 colors are more dull than real life so I have to adjust them a bit but other than that we don’t do anything else. Sorry if that’s no help.

That key lime pie and the view- great choice! Have fun in Key West!

Thanks for clarifying!

Hmmm I’m not sure. I do know most places are open from May 1 to September 1. But that’s in Alaska. Not sure about Canada. Although you don’t need campsites since you can just pull over on the rest areas/pull offs for the night in these remote areas nobody cares if you do. But if you want campsites I’m not sure.

Thanks for the reply. ​@@NickandJulie

I remember when boarding the ferry, folks with wheelchairs were boarded first so I believe it is but I didn’t pay attention when we got there regards to accessing the fort. You may want to call the yankee freedom phone number to confirm.

Yea they made it paid parking last year/year before 😔 When the video came out it was still free.

Happy to hear they’re for sale at Lowe’s again and you were able to snag some! Sounds like the perfect spot for them where you can enjoy their lovely perfume.

Thanks for the tip! Any idea if that zaps the good stuff in the herbs?

@@NickandJulie 🙂as I mentioned the first time it taste exactly the same, and it does not zaps any of the herbs goods or flavor, I truly enjoyed your video. It reminds me of how my grandma used to dry her herbs.🙂 she was an excellent cook but back then she didn’t have a microwave🤣

Very good point! we will be extra careful if we choose to do any paddling next time we’re in Alaska.

Thanks Tracy! We’re glad things ended well, it could have been a lot worse. I still don’t like remembering this day 😓

Glad it was helpful! I had not heard about it either until a month before arriving in Alaska. I definitely think it’s something everyone should know before arriving maybe this short video will inform at least a few folks.
