      We miss you guys too! When / if the border opens we are gonna try to head south for a little bit maybe we can meet up somewhere. We want to get some work done on the van and will be on the west coast. When we know we are planning the trip we will be in contact.

    I love how Ember rushes the camera and chooses to wait to shake off until she knows you'll get soaked! I'm happy to report that I've seen every video you cited in your Places to Boondock lists, often times more than once because I watch your videos on my 55" UHD TV connected to AppleTV. I then have to jump on my iMac to watch it again because I can't leave comments through the AppleTV. Here's another challenge for you when it comes to videos that will be funny (and possibly embarrassing) to watch. You've now been filming for well over a year. Compile into one video all of the gaffes, mess-ups, tripod malfunctions, etc. Extra points if we can hear you bust up laughing in the background as Murphy's Law is unfolding there before you. I think everyone would love to see it, and I'm confident that you kept all of that footage. What do you think? Keep up the great work you two!

    • @WingsandWheelsAlaska
      @WingsandWheelsAlaska  4 роки тому +1

      Ember is absolutely crazy when it comes to the camera. Anytime we set it down for a shot she wants to trample it! We do have all the old footage and are starting on our third external drive. We may compile some, that would be hilarious but would take hours and hours to sift through footage. Maybe in the winter when we don’t want to be outside 😂. Hope you are staying safe Brian and we appreciate your constant support!

    Hey! Do you have to put the bed all the way down to sleep on it, or can you sleep on it in any height?

    • @WingsandWheelsAlaska
      @WingsandWheelsAlaska  4 роки тому +2

      Hi John, The bed can be used at any height but you start losing length as it moves higher. There are some creative people out there who have built risers that can be used as additional storage. Canyonadventurevans , the designer of the GLSS (lounge area in the back of our van) has some incredible designs for that purpose. A bunch of people like storing bikes etc under the bed and need the additional height. We prefer the length of the bed since we like to stretch out so we put it all the way down :)

      @WingsandWheelsAlaska  4 роки тому

      We haven't found the need for it yet. It's on our list of upgrades but it's lower priority because in the past year we have ran low on fuel maybe once? We attribute that to fuel, (good Diesel too because of the trucking system up here) being easy to find. We know it's not like that everywhere when we start to head South so in the future it's a consideration. We were supposed to be in the lower 48 as we speak, getting the upgrades completed, but we're stuck here now. Thank you for watching! 😁

Wifey and I will be heading up there next year during the spring, God’s blessings ( I know COVID will be gone by November 4th 2020) with our 2021 Revel. I’m still trying to convince Wifey to move there. I love alaska.
