@@foneman708 that sounds like fun! Such a beautiful area. We had no idea Kansas had areas like that until our trip. Did you DIY a camper? We are considering some type of DIY camper build after we retire next year. We think it would be an interesting project but intimidating too. We're thinking a truck bed build, something like a Four Wheel brand camper. We'll probably change our mind by then though, lol!

@@foneman708 thank you! We enjoyed Kansas and Red Crow! The people at both Campinawe and Croft have been super helpful. Great people to work with. Thanks for the pronunciation - we try to get names right but we were struggling with that one! Thanks for watching!

@@Ozarkprepper643 thanks for watching! We knew it had something to do with minerals or the rocks. Thanks for sharing that! It really is amazing - never seen water that color.

@@antispin3311 thanks! Not to my knowledge. This was our first time in this area but from the research we did, it looks like there could be some bear activity, but it's not common. The bear population in the lower peninsula has been growing though. We always keep food put away and try to keep a clean camp wherever we are just in case, lol!

@@missroxanne7123 they have really nice restrooms and showers in the center of the cabins area, but we also brought our cassette toilet too. It's nice to have that in the middle of the night, especially when it's cold or rainy.

@ I agree. I’ve got a collapsible toilet that uses garbage bags setup. I’m not that picky just basically asking for my husband. He’s a prima Donna compared to me. Lol. Thank you. 😊

@@missroxanne7123 we knew Wranglers was open in the winter but was surprised to discover the cabins in Energy Lake are available too. There was one other couple there the first two nights, but the last night we were the only ones there. It was awesome!

@ thats the perfect way to spend New Years in my opinion! Love it!

@@JonesteadFarm we haven't camped at Hillman or Piney yet. A skunk would be scary, lol! I used to work at dog grooming, and we would get dogs in that had been sprayed. So hard to get the smell out. We definitely ate good that weekend!

@@cslay06 thanks for watching! LBL is definitely worth a visit. It's really a "choose your adventure" kind of place. So many options, lol!

@@GetOutBeHappy it's a game called Qwixx. Usually when we're camping we spend the evening around the fire but it's nice to have something to do when it is windy and cold. We like games that are easy to learn, lol!

@@georgejacobs4050 not sure if you meant bad good or just bad, lol! Either way it's all good! Everyone has their own taste in music.

@@goldpanvanman we feel like we find something awesome every where we travel. Kansas was so much more than we expected! We do truly live in a beautiful country.

@@goldpanvanman what an awesome comment! Thank you so much! It is a pretty cool place. First time in Southern Ohio.

@@cslay06 the drive up to the rock garden was the scariest place I've ever driven. Steep, off camber, washed out. When we got up there and a few people were turning around to go back instead of through the rock garden, I told Tim I was more afraid of going back down than going through, lol! We had a lot of fun, but wouldn't want to do that every weekend. The Ohio Stuck video actually happened first, so this was our second time in a week using the winch after never using it before. Thanks for watching and the great comment!

@@BBQDad463 Yep, nothing to it but to do it! We were really glad it was open though, lol! We truly love just driving around exploring. Thanks for watching!

@@cslay06 thanks so much! We appreciate that! We really enjoyed driving around exploring Wayne, but only saw a few spots that would fit a small trailer. Some areas of Hoosier are like that too, especially the Southern unit. Beautiful area!

@@kevinwellborn9372 we were so worried about getting high centered, but we probably should have just went for it and then winches ourselves out if we needed too!

@@gasm1100 we did eventually. Our first time!

@@srmrlr Thanks for sharing that! We will check out your video. We didn't know there was a book - we just saw it on maps, so stopped by not knowing anything about it. There was a lot more to see in Kansas than we expected, lol!

@@tonyabrowninghikesthank you! It felt like it took soo long for us to figure out how to get through there, so it was interesting watching the videos later to see it wasn't quite as long as we thought, but still stressful, lol!

@@tonyabrowninghikes there is so much historical (I hope) graffiti in there. We really enjoyed looking over all that. Dinner was surprisingly good! Tim says we can add that to our camp menu, lol!

@@GetOutBeHappy thank you! He was ready to be done at that point, lol! Afterwards, looking back, we're like, that wasn't too big of a deal. But at the moment when we are in it and don't know what the outcome will be, it's pretty stressful. He enjoyed that beer!

@HEKNBAK ya, it did most definitely look stressful. Glad it had a good outcome with a good beer.

@@exploringquests Yes! We have seen TrailRecon. Even if we don't go with a Patriot, we have seen some other off-road trailers we really like too. I think what we are struggling with is comfort. If we are going to spend a lot on a new setup, we want to make sure it's something that will work for us as we age. We're looking for that perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and agility, lol! We know there is no "perfect" solution though. Thanks for reminding us about that! We will go back and check out some of those videos and discuss a little more.

@ I totally understand the comfort part. Being a full time overlander is very difficult. The perfect setup seems to come at a very high price, which most of us can’t make happen. Hopefully you guys will be able to find what works for you and still be able to enjoy all the things you want!

@@salvesed.o.c.4154 we don't use it that often but it is doing well. If you want something for cooking, I think I would recommend something with a regular grate on top. I don't think it would work that well for grilling. The other issue would be the ground. It will burn whatever is on the ground. If we were going to get something to use on a regular basis for both fire and cooking, we would go with something different. We love the concept, that it folds flat, doesn't take up much room, but now that we have more time with it, we don't think it's as versatile as we hoped it would be. We did think it was a really good price though compared to some other folding firepits we have seen. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!

Thank you! We enjoyed Lake Hope also. We had heard quite a bit about Hocking Hills but didn't even know about Lake Hope until we couldn't get a site at Hocking Hills and started looking for alternatives. Such a beautiful area!

@@GerryHemmer good to know! We saw some outfitters in the area as we drove through. I imagine the area would be even more beautiful by river.

@@scottevans5038 we were surprised by how beautiful the whole area is. We had never been to southeast Ohio. Loved exploring it!

@@BrianWest58 thanks for watching and commenting!

@@tonyabrowninghikes I love knowing that! He complains a lot, but it's all in jest - well usually, lol!

@HEKNBAK mine thinks I bring him on trips with the plans to leave him behind🤣

@@GetOutBeHappy thanks! We enjoy learning about new state parks, well new to us, lol!

@@tonyabrowninghikes one of your videos inspired us to come to this area, lol! We were looking for somewhere to spend a couple days on our way to Kentucky and remembered a hike in Hocking Hills you posted. A few other people had mentioned how beautiful it is too, so we decided to check it out. I do seem to remember that hike you did was in the snow!

@HEKNBAK it's sick a cool place! I'm glad I could help. And in turn your helping me. I saved that hipcamp place you mentioned!

@@tonyabrowninghikesif you try it, let us know how it is. We're going to start trying more places like that in this next year.

@HEKNBAK i love hipcamp! But I'll definitely report back if i use that one.

@@sharkman8810 never thought to show that but great idea! Maybe we will do another one in the future. Thanks for watching and bringing that up!

Thanks! We sort of thought that was probably how it is pronounced.

@@GetOutBeHappy thanks Ed! Funny how nothing gets done while we're gone, lol!

@@oszkarkasch7522 isn't he! That other guy though, smh, lol!

I thought he looked kinda weak..😂

@@JonesteadFarm thanks for watching! We were glad to be able to get out for awhile!

Love that story, lol! Isn't it interesting how time changes our perspective. We had one of those experiences last year down in Kentucky. We were so stressed and upset at the time, but now looking back, it was a great adventure! Here is a link to that video if you haven't seen it yet: ua-cam.com/video/Ma10dacTIKI/v-deo.html Thanks for watching and subscribing! We loved the time we spent in Allegheny and definitely hope to get back that way in the future. That was our first time in Pennsylvania - so beautiful!

@@millguygarage4875 great question! Seems like there could be some pretty cool finds there!

@@davidelliott400 thank you! We wish you the same. We will be spending some time with family for Christmas, but plan to spend new years in the forest!

@@HEKNBAK Enjoy your forest trip. I'm looking forward to getting out later in January for some winter camping.

@@buschlattes7066 that's why they say art is in the eye of the beholder, right! When we called it hormonal graffiti, we were referring to things like "Becky's a bitch", "suck my dick", and spurting penises everywhere. Probably painted by teenagers and not really something we want to see - we'd rather just see the bus, but not everyone agrees. I'm sure the people painting it, love it!

@@buschlattes7066 we will check that out. Thanks for sharing that.

Glad to know we aren't alone, lol! We do like to look at it to see what used to be there sometimes, but if you aren't also looking at something more accurate, it can lead you to quite a few dead ends.

@@quackaddict620 yes, we are still using it and still enjoy it! We are thinking when we retire in a couple years we will want something bigger, but for now it is great. The only downside for us is heat. When we bought it, there wasn't an option for heat, but that may have changed. We just got a diesel heater we are looking forward to trying out in January.

@@davewolf8869 they were all good but I think the French toast was our favorite!

You're welcome! It's our pleasure to share and we agree - the music sets the tone! I love picking out music for our videos. Thanks for those kind words and for watching!

We're glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

Just looked it up. We love events that support a cause! We have never heard of this but sounds interesting. Here is the link if anyone would like to know more: backroadsofappalachia.org/event/24-hours-of-appalachia-mothmans-revenge/

@@Tyler-yn5xe thanks for that pronunciation! And for watching!

Awesome! Thank you!

@@OSMOneStepMore thanks for watching! It really is beautiful, especially in the fall.
