@@dodgecityvanlife Thank you! The Olympic Peninsula was amazing! 🤩

@@erikalynne1 We were in loop A which I highly recommend because it’s the outside loop so behind our campsite was just woods and then the road and then Lake McDonald. It was a great location! Apgar Campground was a little noisier than Fish Creek campground, but you’re also close to all the amenities there which was nice. 😊 When will you be going to Glacier?

We will be there next August! Planning a huge cross country road trip and this is one of our stops! Do you remember the specific campsite number you were at? We are trying to scout out good campsites so when it’s time to book, we know what we want. Thanks so much for the tip!❤

@@erikalynne1 How fun! You’ll have such a great time! Ours ended up being a 75 Day Road Trip from Michigan to Washington, down the Pacific Coast and back through Utah and Colorado. It was amazing!! You’ll have to check out some of our other videos if they are stops you’re interested in making as well. I really feel like we lucked out with a lot of great campsites! I don’t remember the exact site number, but when I look at the map, I think it may have been 23. It was one of the outside campsite on Loop A. But all the outside sites were pretty spacious.

@@AustinsADV Thanks! Many claim that Zion Canyon overlook Trail gives you the best views at Zion! I personally have not done Angels Landing to know the difference, have you?

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog I’ve never done Angels Landing, tried to get a permit this summer but couldn’t get one.

@@AustinsADV yeah. It’s tricky. We’ve tried several times to get one, and have not been successful. But it sounds like it’s a good idea that they do have the permits for the trail now as I think it was dangerously busy at many times.

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog Yeah, I wouldn’t want to be on there when it’s busy

@@AustinsADV Exactly! One day we’ll both get there. My aunt and uncle just made it to Zion and were able to do Angels Landing for the first time and they are both in their 60s! My uncle didn’t quite make it all the way to the top as he doesn’t have quite the balance as my aunt, but he made it a good part of the way.

@@nafex3740 We loved Zion! ❤️🧡 Have you been before?

@@AustinsADV That’s awesome! We’ve had the opportunity to take a sunset cruise on the Badger as well as take it across Lake Michigan to Wisconsin. We’ve looked into taking our Airstream, but it would cost about $500 to do that. Maybe one day……

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog That sounds fun! We thought about taking the Airstream on there too but it’s so expensive. Grew up a little to the south of there in Wisconsin.

@@AustinsADV That’s very cool that you grew up near the Great Lakes! With as much as I love the ocean, there’s just something extra special about the Great Lakes. 😍

@@justramblinaround Thanks! 🥰 it really did feel like it was the perfect day at Sequoia and Kings Canyon! I am also very glad that I’ve documented our travels. Something I wish I would’ve done sooner, but glad I started when I did. ☺️ The black bear sighting was so cool! But I will say, if you are really wanting to see a black bear, I can almost guarantee you’ll see at least one if you go to the smoky mountains. We saw so many there! 🐻 Thanks for watching! 💖

@@AustinsADV The Elephant Seals were definitely a highlight! 😍🦭 It was definitely worse than towing Oregon. Way worse. The roads are so much curvier. At one point my daughter actually threw up because it was so crazy. The next day we picked up some ginger brew, which definitely helped with the nausea. But it was intense. 😳🤢

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog Oh wow, that doesn’t sound fun 🥹

@@AustinsADV we started at the official start in Leggett, California, and made it down to Pismo Beach. So someday we have to go back and finish California 1 from Pismo Beach on down. We’ll see if Alexis will decide to join us. 😜

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog sounds fun, that’s a long coastline!

@@beautifuloneyes Yes, these memories will definitely last a lifetime! 🥰 Thanks for watching! 💖

@@MUDFam562 Awesome! 🤩 Thanks for joining our adventures! 💖

@@MUDFam562 thankfully, we were actually much farther away than the video portrays. The zoom on the iPhone is pretty exceptional. 🤩

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog 🤪 what an experience 🐻 fascinating & scary at the same time

@@MUDFam562 Exactly! We had been in Black Bear territory for a while, and hadn’t seen anything! So this was pretty fun to see one at a safe distance and walking in the opposite direction. 😅

@@airstreamer I think that song is the perfect Sierra Nevada mountain song! Glad Jim liked it as well. Alexis was not a fan of that song. 😜 We weren’t planning to stop in Las Vegas, but it happened to be on our route, and we were actually pleasantly surprised. It kind of felt like driving through a Christmas light display. Although I’m sure that would be a different story if we actually got out of the truck. 🤣 That’s the only little chunk of Arizona that we’ve adventured in as of yet. We are looking forward to future travels and Arizona! Utah is amazing! We were able to spend a week in Utah checking out for of the five national parks there. We definitely want to go back - it was amazing! Truth be told, we never actually came across any aggressive squirrels, but we also did not leave any food out. But the hummingbirds were amazing there! I had so much fun sitting at the campground just watching all the hummingbirds! 🥰 I can’t wait for you all to visit Utah! It’s an incredible place!

@@kbkgadventures They really are! 💚 I truly wish everyone could experience the magic of the Redwoods! Have you had a chance to visit?

@@richardtangeman2461 We think he was maybe a 2 year old cub just out on his own. So he still had some growing to do. Hopefully he found lots of food.

@@donthompson9862 🤣😂 I couldn’t help myself. I know they aren’t actually all cute and cuddly, but they really are cute. 🥰

@@user-hv6hq9go4l Yes, he was maybe a 2 year old just out on his own. We were actually much farther than it appeared in the video. The iPhone has a very good zoom camera. 😁

@@suminagum6605 we did have bear spray, but he was actually much farther from us than it appeared. The iPhone has a pretty good zoom on it now. 😉

@@martinmlagirdam6827 that’s awesome! You’ll have an epic time! It’s such a great area to get two national parks for the price of one! It will probably be pretty busy in July, so I would plan to do General Sherman, Moro Rock, and the Giant Forest Museum area early in the morning, or on a weekday if you can. But if you get caught in the predicament we did, and are unable to find parking, the General Grant Grove was such a great back up plan! It’s fairly close to the Sunset Campground and Kings Canyon visitor center, a little less than an hour north of General Sherman. I’m very excited for you to explore the sequoias! I truly wish everyone could at some point in their life. ☺️ Thank you so much for your comment and joining us on our adventures! 💖

@airstreamer We were on the lookout for a black bear for months after being in Black Bear territory, and we were so excited to finally see one! And at a safe distance too! I thought the zoom on the iPhone did a pretty good job capturing a zoomed in image. General Sherman is definitely a tree you have to see to believe! It’s just so massive when you see it in person. And Alexis definitely enjoyed the Sequoia “playground”. 😜 Thank you so much for joining us on our journey to Sequoia and Kings Canyon! 🥰 It’s definitely a must see National Park!

It's amazing how well some of the cabins are preserved!

@airstreamer Yes, it certainly was a crazy drive! If you only knew how many times I said “well, maybe we should just turn around….” 🤪 - but the adventurous side of us just kept curving on! For a day to not go as planned, we got to see some pretty cool stuff! Thanks for joining us on our unexpected adventure! 🥰

Thanks! 🥰💖🐶💕

Thank You! 🥰 Are you from the area? It's soooo beautiful there!

Small space = Easy clean up 😜

@AustinsADV Jason says thanks. 😊 It’s definitely a fun way to celebrate! 🎉

@norys90 It definitely was! It’s hard to not to over schedule your days when there are so many cool things to see and do. 😁 Did you recognize any of our stops?

@airstreamer The new Flora is one of my favorite things as we travel as well! We have multiple wildflower books to help us decifer along the way. It definitely took some getting used to looking out for passing vehicles while running on the beach. 🤣🤣

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog What a great learning opportunity!

@@airstreamer Traveling is certainly educational! Not just learning the flora and fauna, but getting to know different kinds of people is also important. I keep telling her - there’s no such thing as “normal.“ 😜

@AndyandRachel Alexis and I are a little bit obsessed with beachcombing. 😜 Our bathroom is full of beach treasures. Even our little white dog Polly has picked out a few pieces of driftwood at some beaches. 🥰 We definitely recommend Pismo Beach! It had such a cool vibe there!😎 Thanks so much for joining us! 💖

Thank you! You too!!! 💖

No worries. Thankfully she had no desire to look directly at the sun. 😉

@geoffreywalker7308 🤣 Yes, it certainly was! It was so unexpected for us all. I guess you’d better be careful how close you get to that weeping wall. 🤣😂🤣😜

We actually were planning to stop at the Airstream factory to buy one of their eclipse T-shirts, and hopefully view from their parking lot, but everything was closed off and closed down! Bummer for us, but glad that they all had the day off to enjoy the eclipse. ☺️ We ended up at the Wally Byam Memorial Park there in Jackson Center. We did pass the air and space museum thinking that would’ve been a great location for viewing, but ended up continuing on to Jackson Center since we were more familiar with that area and knew there were a lot of wide open spaces.

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog Wow! I wonder if some of the closures were due to the terrible tornadoes that went through the area? - Michelle

@@airstreamer We did drive by Indian Lake and saw a lot of tornado damage there. So sad. 😞 But I think Airstream gave its employees the day off so they could enjoy the eclipse with their family. Airstream seems to be a very nice company to work for. ☺️

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog That is nice of them! Yes, sad about the damage. - Michelle

Thanks! We weren’t at all prepared with any proper filters or anything, but managed to capture something at least. 😅 Natural Phenomenons definitely bring people together! 💖 I wonder what the actual total was. I heard that 31 million people live in the path of totality with millions more coming to see it.

That sounds awesome! Yes, we missed so much! California 1 wasn’t an original plan for this trip, and we had a really hard time finding reservations so it was just a quick 3 Day drive down the coast and then we start heading back east! We do plan to go again one day. 😊 Any other stops we shouldn’t miss?

Thank you! ☺️ Alexis holding our sweet little Polly and looking back and seeing them out the window is probably one of my favorite memories of traveling across the country. It truly is the sweetest! 🥰 I’m so glad I was able to bring back some wonderful memories for you. I agree that sometimes it’s actually more enjoyable watching a travel video on a place that you’ve been and seeing how another family enjoys it while bringing back those fond memories of your own visit there. We do hope to get back to California 1. What are some stops that you would recommend?

@sasstewart1222 Thank you! 😊 I definitely agree with all of that! It was nice having our bathroom and food with us the whole drive, but it was truly horrible finding campsites along the coast. And it was such a shame because we saw so many empty campsites, but there was no way to reserve them unless you did it two days in advance. We do feel like we will end up with a camper van one day when it’s just the two of us. 🥰🥰 Happy Travels!

I was totally obsessed with the big trees, and my daughter was obsessed with the banana slugs.🤪 It was too cute! We actually never saw any in Oregon, but we didn't go in the woods much; we spent all our time on the coast.. Thanks for watching. ☺

It is a lovely song! ☺ It's called “Come Away With Me” by Justin Lee. He has several other songs that I also really like. 😉 I'm using quite a few in our upcoming video Airstreaming California 1. Thank you so much for joining us on our adventures! 💖

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog Thank you so much! I will check Justin Lee out for sure. Your videos are so fun and sweet. God bless you guys as you make beautiful memories💙

@@barbararamsay6250 Thank you so much! We truly appreciate your positive feedback. 🥰 Have a blessed Easter! ✝️💕

@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog Happy Resurrection Day to you all!

@@barbararamsay6250 Thank you! 🙏🏼 ☺️

The Oregon Coast is truly amazing! And that's amazing that you've been RVing for so many years! Do you have a place you tend to camp more often than others?

Thank you! We really loved the Oregon Coast! We stayed at 3 different state parks along the Oregon coast- all wonderful! 🥰 Thanks for joining us. 💖

It really is amazing! You definitely have to be there to truly experience the magic of the redwoods! 😍

And Thank YOU for joining us! 🥰 The Oregon Coast was AMAZING!!! I definitely recommend spending as much tine there as you can. We stayed at three different state parks along the coast (which we would highly recommend each): Nehalem Bay State Park was on the northern coast of Oregon, Umpqua Lighthouse State Park, which was central, and then Harris Beach State Park, which was the most southern was at the very southern end of Oregon. We were less than an hour from the Redwoods in California here which is what our next video will feature. 😁 I am planning to put together a video on all the different stops along the entire Oregon coast as well. 😉

These are great recommendations, thank you! They went on our list. We will look forward to your upcoming videos. :) safe travels! -Michelle@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog

@@airstreamer Awesome! 🤩 Maybe we’ll see you on the road one day! ☺️

We would love that! 😄@@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog
