This here is a story about Bob and Karla, two old lovers with nothing better to do, than sit around the house, take a break and watch UA-cam. This is what happened when we decided to cut loose.
We Bite the Bullet and Stay at the Same Truck Camping Spot in Ocala National Forest Another Night
We spent another night truck camping in the same spot we stayed at last time in the Ocala National Forest. The actual campsite we made was perfect. It had plenty of shade and privacy even though we were parked 15 feet from the forest service road. We decided that if the duck hunters returned they would be far enough away as to not bother us at our campsite, or Bob's archery set up. Little did we know they would stop right outside our campsite before 5 AM to adjust their gear on the ATV. Before daybreak Bob walked to his archery hunting spot while Karla stayed at camp with the dog Lilly. About mid morning Bob made it back for breakfast. On the drive out of the forest we found some real roadside treasures.

Truck Camping in Ocala Makes Me Feel Like the King of Kings

After many setbacks this summer, we finally made it back out to the Ocala National Forest to do some truck camping. Our dog Lilly came with us. It was the first time the truck had been in mud since all the problems started earlier this summer. We stopped at a few possible campsite spots before we settled on the one we did. The pull off we chose was walking distance to an area Bob wanted to arch...

After about 6 weeks we finally received the rebuilt rear differential for our 1990 Chevy K1500. In this video Bob removes the old differential and replaces it with the new one. Once it is installed we go for a test drive to make sure the truck is ready for our next truck camping adventure.

In this video we spend the night camping in central Florida's Tosohatchee WMA. The weather was nice so we were able to set up the tent and spread out all the gear. The bugs started to get active once the sun started to go down, so we lit a fire to help drive them away. A fire is nice anyway. After a while we moved into the tent for an exciting evening. We spent the next day hanging out at the c...

To celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary we went camping in central Florida's William Beardall Tosohatchee WMA. To make the day better, our daughter and her family made it out. The line at the check station was backed up when we got there. It didn't take to long to get signed in. When Karla made the campsite reservation she asked for a secluded site, the attendant was not sure how wet it was s...
Our Truck Is Broken, But It Is Not Dead and Gone

Literally the day after we cleaned the truck it broke down on Bob while he was driving home from work. A seal had worn out and all the oil leaked out, causing something to break in his rear differential. We found an old Chevy 4x4 truck that has parts Bob can switch over to the silver truck. After fixing the first problem another issue popped up, this time in the front differential. Not to worry...
It Is Time to Clean Our Truck Camper and Make It Shine

We have been using and abusing our truck camper lately on our trips and it was filthy dirty. We pulled everything out of the truck topper and gave it a deep clean. The amount of sand we had collected was incredible. Karla swept and vacuumed it all, and then she polished the wood. Finally we reloaded the camper.
Just Another Relaxing Day Truck Camping in the Ocala National Forest

We woke up at our truck camping spot in the Ocala National Forest only to realize that everything was wet because we did not put anything away before going to bed last night. The wet stove made for an interesting flame. We dried everything as much as possible. Our dog Lilly was full of energy. She just loves to go camping! We ended up heading home once the day started to heat up.
Don't Get Down On Me for Finding Such a Nice Truck Camping Spot in the Ocala National Forest

We had a couple days free so we decided to take the dog and go truck camping. We knew it was going to be hot, but the rain we drove through on the way to Ocala was unexpected. Luckily the rain helped with the heat. After driving down a few overgrown roads we found a boondocking spot not too far from a pond. After setting up camp Bob went fishing while Lilly played in the water. Eventually Karla...
Sometimes You Just Gotta Listen to Your Heart and Go Truck Camping

You know life is good when you can just take a couple days off and go truck camping without anyone hassling you. We woke up at our camp deep in Ocala. We brought our dog Lilly with us. Everything was so calm and peaceful. The only human noises we heard were the jets passing overhead as they made their way to the bombing range. We heated up some breakfast and puttered around camp. After a while ...
Feeling Like a Mean Machine at the Creek While Truck Camping in Ocala

One of the nice things about the Ocala National Forest is all the great spots you can find for dispersed camping. Sometimes the first spot you go to is perfect, other times you have to keep looking. This truck camping trip we had found a spot on the map we wanted to look at, but once we got there we determined we could find a better spot if we kept looking. Eventually we made it back to the cre...
Oh No! We Got to Our Camping Spot in the Ocala National Forest and Found the Truck Door Was Broken

We took our dog Lilly with us truck camping in central Florida's Ocala National Forest. On our way to our camping spot one of the truck's door hinges broke. The door almost fell off when Bob opened it once we got into the woods. After breakfast we tackled that project. In the early afternoon we packed up camp and started to head home. Along the way out we found an access point to one of the spr...
This Truck Camping Trip Could Have Been Like a Nightmare

We headed up to the Ocala National Forest for an overnight truck camping trip. The dog really wanted to go with us this week. This trip we drove down forest road 77 and found a nice flat spot under some shade trees. After setting up camp we decided to go for a walk. Karla started hearing noises in the woods almost immediately after we started down the trail. At first she though she heard a dog ...
It Is a Crying Shame We Had to Leave this Truck Camping Spot in Ocala National Forest So Soon

Last week we headed off to the Ocala National Forest, located in central Florida, for a quick truck camping trip. Our dog Lilly came with us this time. This trip we explored an area of the forest that we had never visited before. This road has long stretches of soft sand and is very narrow in places. To truck camp in this spot you need a 4X4 with paint that you don't care about. Eventually we r...

Lilly looks like she really enjoys camping. She's very calm.
Your dog is loaded
And loved.
Thanks for coming to our little corner of the world! Road signage is something we could improve upon. Welcome to Nowhere, MS! 😂
That spot is still our favorite place to stop. Absolutely loved it. Hopefully we will make it back.
Do y’all have open season for bear ? I heard they were good eating …Oh and I like your coffee cup Karla
Florida does not have a bear season currently. The grand-kids think Karla is the best grandma, and her cup proves it!
@@forty2fiveoutdoors yes she seems like she would be we loved the video enjoyed seeing the bears
I hope you guys had a good time.
We did. Thanks for watching
Beautiful place ❤
Thanks for visiting
Beautiful place ❤
It really is!
Glad y’all got the rear end in your truck fixed everyone needs a good rear end my wife has a lot of rear end lol 😮
ROFLMAO Thankfully that nightmare is over.
You're right ! That model Silverado K1500 will last a lot longer than any of the newer trucks. I wish I still had my 1992 z71. The main reason is because you can work on it yourself. All of the parts are inexpensive and the 350 5.7L is tried and true. SO when your neighbor or someone talks down on your truck....just laugh and say " mark my words, when your newer one is in the shop, mine is still running". I guarantee sooner or later, the newer trucks will have problems. Nice job !! Oh, and my 1992 z71 5.7 350 w/throttle body...would outrun my current 2009 Silverado LTZ 4x4 crew cab 5.3.
Those cloth seats are way more comfortable than the leather seats in my 2009. If anyone reading this has never sat on the older k1500 cloth seats, go do it...compare your newer truck seat to the older cloth ones...(my 92 cloth seats were way more comfortable than my 09 LTZ silverado seats.)
I have had lots of people tell me its time to trade it in. Nope, won't do it. Too many miles left on it.
Oh that is so true. The seats are incredibly soft. Can wear shorts in summer in Florida without the air running; try that with leather seats!
Good job . Some heavy awkward work.
Thank you. You can say that again.
Good job guys. 😊
Thank you! 😃
Great video guys and want to let y’all know I hate packing up to
As always a very nice spot Florida is beautiful and the grandson did great on the camera
Best time we had all summer
Nice tent. Yes, I can't wait for coffee. Pour me a cup too, please. LoL
I do enjoy my coffee. Always have an extra cup for a friend!
Early birds
You inspire others to take on do- able stuff … you’re chippin’away at several tough jobs … maybe let it set / put it off till Fall October weather ???Good luck … not many around today who tackle stuff like this on their own .
Thank you. Your comment made my day.
Just go buy a new truck it’s time.
We love camping with our grandchildren
It IS the best
Looks like yall had a great time .. enjoyed the video ... Congratulations hope yall had a Happy Anniversary 🎉
Thank you. It was the best time!
Love it! You guys look great!! ❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
Congratulations yall!
Thank you
where were u folks at in nebraska? i am not far off the border in northeast kansas. i camp in nebraska often.

First time seeing your channel. My first impression... That's a nice-looking couple. I wish you success.
Thank you so much! Your comment made my day.
Yeah ... I watched a friend of the family go through the Junkyard rear-end thing on an older Chevy. It was no fun for him and his wife. They did finally get it fixed though. Determination is the key.
Going this route is a gamble. It didn't pay off this time so we will have to keep at it. We are not giving up on the truck.
You guys are trooper tough
Thank you. You do what you gotta do!
I’m 62, and I’d like to work on my vehicles now like I always did, but don’t have the enthusiasm Lol
I'm quickly losing my enthusiasm on this one
Best of luck...👍🇺🇸❤️
Thank you
Guys I really hope you get your truck fixed and make more videos good luck
We will, just taking a lot longer than expected.
I've got faith yall can do it
We sure hope so.
Apart from an 8" survivor knife, stun gun, mace, and machete, I added a Bruni New Police 9mm Pak blank pistol (very loud) and a .50 cal Umarex TR50 Paintball Revolver paintball airgun to my RV/ camping arsenal. Both are non-lethal and under $100. I also added on each side of the RV solar motion sensor LED lights and have an intruder alert. Remember even if you do not have a gun you can bluff "Go away I am armed with a gun.".Also, buy some M80 firecrackers when you hear weird noises or footsteps outside your RV light one up, and throw it out the window after the big bang you will scare most critters away.
Those all sound like good options. We don't worry much about animals, its the bipeds that you have to watch out for here in Florida, and trust me, we are fully prepared for them.
Hi my name is leroy holopaw fl parking lot you pass it sandy road where that spot you camp at have you been gun range and south beach north beach
Yes we have been all over suburban. Been a long time since we were at the gun range.
I really like your nice wooden doors and the fact that you can change your bed into a futon easily.. not so much hanging the toilet seat out on the door, seems really creepy.
Thank you. The doors do make it feel cozy when you are inside. The seat is placed where we can get to it in a hurry in the morning.
I just transferred to summer gear myself
It has been brutal around here the last two weeks.
This one is doing well it looks like
@@forty2fiveoutdoorsI can only imagine it almost triple digit up here in Mi . I may do Ocala this winter if I find work that way if not I'm going back to Az
why you have all them matress all you need is 1 and so covers
The extra cushion helps at night.
Y’all got it cleaned up now it’s time to take her camping it looks nice and cozy
It is sooo much more comfortable now. Looking forward to your next video.
@@forty2fiveoutdoors Thank y’all
This gives me so many memories of when I would drive down to my grandparents as a 5 year old and my grandpa would teach me how to fish and I still do it today
Oh good. Your comment makes me happy. Some of my favorite memories are doing the same with my grandpa.
Enjoyed the video as always ..can’t wait until the next one …
Thank you so much.
Ghosts have been seen walking through the palmettos in broad daylight before.
You never know what you will see out there!
I could have went to sleep in that hammock lol
Karla loves her hammock time.
Just subscribed, looking forward to seeing your content. Thank you for cleaning up. I just don't understand other people being so disrespectful.
Thank you for subscribing. We really do appreciate that! It seems like we usually clean up other people's trash. So sad.
Looks like yall been getting plenty of sun it's still cool up here in Michigan I need some Florida heat
The weather has been nice lately. It is not hot yet, have to wait till August for that.
I had to quit drinking coffee too. I switched to tea but the caffeine still bothered me. I started drinking DECAF, yes decaf and I have no problems with my heart at all now. It's fantastic to be able to drink coffee again and the decaf part didn't really change the flavor.
Bob tried Decaf, it still hurts his stomach if he drinks more than a cup. So he sticks to tea.
@@forty2fiveoutdoors oh gotcha
How HIGH are you guys? lol
I don't remember...
@@forty2fiveoutdoors lol
Now that's the life ❤
It was fun. To bad every day can't be like that.
Nothing beats the sun on a brisk morning
Amen
So true. Unfortunately summer is almost here and we are already starting to feel the humidity.
Looks relaxing nothing like getting piece and quite in the woods …Karla this is Barry’s wife Cecelia I love your kettle I have a few I collect kettles I love them
So true, getting out into the woods for a few days sure does put the soul at ease.....Cecelia, this is my first kettle. Funny how the simple things, like the kettle's whistle, are so pleasurable.
@@forty2fiveoutdoors yes that’s true
We love you guys …y’all are the best …the place Karla was swinging on the rope and Bob was fishing reminded us of Gillian’s island 😊 beautiful place …The steak really smelled good lol …can’t wait til your next adventure
Thank you so much...It does have that Gilligan's Island look!!!! It was so much fun. The steak tasted even better than they smelled.
That is a very happy dog, it seems it likes that place.😅
She sure does love to go camping, or anything with Mom.
Me and my Barry was betting if you was going to swing on that rope I said you would lol …we really enjoyed the video can’t wait til the next one
Felt like Tarzan! Maybe next time I will let go.
Good video, like
Thank you
