The next morning we head to Tesla, have to convince them something is wrong, and head home in a very nice Model X loaner! Quite the adventure!!

OH MY GOSH THATS MY UNCLE
do you mean memento?
I think offering is what I was going for
I think memento is what you were going for. Just checked again. Yep, that's what you were going for.
Liked Pandora the best, and the drone show was impressive! Thanks for sharing everything. Got to enjoy Disney World in 70 degree weather on my couch 😄
Pandora is incredible for sure
I didn’t realize Disney World was so large! Enjoyed the tour!
Nice! You crammed a ton of activities into one 10 mile day! Looking forward to tomorrow’s adventures!
Great adventure so far. Your Epcot video was one of my favorites so I’m looking forward to what’s next! Plus, you’re doing this when you’ll be flying to Hawai’i next week. Amazing!
Salut~incredible edition-ake.
Not only is this great education (mining history, safety, shortness of breath at elevation, mountain ranges, snow runoff, etc) but I was cracking up when I realized the differences in each of your interests. “Check out all of this old equipment and scary mining shafts!” vs “look at these rocks! I think I’ll crack a few open!” 😂😂😂 Love it!
Safe to say we come at it with different perspectives....😂
Great video! Fun to go along and climb 900 feet while sitting on the sofa. Plus, I didn’t know you started drinking coffee after all these years! Keep these great videos coming, who knows, there may soon be a ‘Lake City Adventures’ series on the National Geographic channel. 😊
“Ok squirrel don’t die and kill yourself” 😂😂😂😂😂 favorite line!! Way to go Ethan 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I’m loving watching yalls videos so much!! Great job! Love you guys
Congrats Ethan. It was great to be able to attend your ceremony and see your graduation. We are so proud of you!

Awesome! Congrats Ethan!!
Keep the videos coming!! Great job narrating and excellent camera work. I’m really really enjoying all of these adventures!
Usnea moss and big horn sheep poop. Yay google!! Lol
I can’t help but smile while watching y’all!! How beautiful and fun!! You two are adorable ❤😊
That cheese was not melted😬
It’s controversial, but I agree 😂
One suggestion is that if that 80 foot run of wire isn't sunlight resistant wire, then I would suggest that you replace the exposed wire that you used and replace it with sunlight resistant wiring. Non UV resistant wiring will only last you a couple of seasons if you're lucky. The second suggestion is that when that high frequency, transformerless inverter fails, (and trust me, you'll be lucky to get a year or two worth of service out of that transformerless inverter.) I would suggest that you purchase a low frequency, transformer based inverter instead. You'll get a much longer life expectancy (10 to 15 years) and much higher 300% surge capacity from a low frequency inverter.
Great points - thanks!
nice video
Thanks!
