I am so sorry for your loss of Kobe. You gave him his best dog life he could have ever had. May God comfort you and may all of the wonderful memories of the joy that he brought you bring you peace. God bless you in the New Year!
Hello Renee, thank you so much for your kind words. God promises he will heal the broken hearted. We are healing from our broken heart. Who would have thought this little guy could take so much of our heart. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thank you for your condolences. It truly means so much to us. It was a difficult loss because he was such a big part of our lives for so long. Change and loss is just hard. 🥹 Yes, even in the loss of a pet we found incredible comfort in the Lord. God is a good, good Father 🙌 Thank you ~ Rhonda and Stan
Thank you so much for joining us! This was a very difficult one for us.😭 These fur babies get so entwined in our lives and so special. Loosing them gets so hard. Thank you! Many blessings to you, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Stan and Rhonda, So very sorry to hear about Kobe’s passing. We share in your sorrow. The greatest act of love is letting go so our pups can pass in peace. It’s natural to want to cling but the love we have for them makes us turn loose in love. Bless you both for your strength. Looking forward to watching your adventures in 2024! RVers love RVers! Kay and Ken Surgenor
Kay and Ken, Such beautiful, healing words. Thank you for being a part of our OTHA family and for sharing in our sorrow ☺️ We know most folks can relate with the loss of a loved fur baby and it’s strangely comforting. We appreciate you reaching out, watching our crazy adventures and we love hearing from you. Many blessings in the New Year! ~ Rhonda and Stan
You two are doing a fantastic job,,,The biggest thing is that you want to and you have a good reason to do what you are doing,,,,Very sorry for your loss of your dog,,,,You always keep GOD as your main source and he will guide you all the way,,,I enjoy your videos and very interesting,,,MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!!!!
Hello Rick, thank you for your kind words and joining us. God promises he will heal the broken hearted. It just takes time! Blessings to you, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thank you for your prayers, Betty Jo. Our family being here has definitely taken our minds off of him and shifted it to much happier things. God is good! 🙌 We sure hope to meet you someday. Thank you for being a big part of our family ❤️ Happy New Year 🎊
So sorry for your loss. Fur babies have a special place in our hearts. We had to make that difficult decision with our Pomeranian several years ago, due to much the same issue. Thanks for sharing-John
So sorry to hear about your loss…as a dog lover I know how much they mean to us as family members. What great memories of your adventures you have. Enjoy your videos and look forward to 2024. We will be taking a lot of your hints from the trip to South Dakota in May 2024.
Hello Barbara, thank you for your kind words. We have wonderful memories and because of our videos Kobe will never be forgotten. You will absolutely love South Dakota. Thank you for joining us! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda ❤️🙏🏼
I am so sorry for your loss. I am a dog lover too. It brought tears to my eyes. I am heading down to Lake Havasu for the balloon festival. I can’t wait. My family has second house down there. I love Lake Havasu City. Wishing your family well. Take care.
Sorry for the loss of your fur baby. It's always sad when it's time to say goodbye to them. I have made that decision many times after years of fun with my fur babies. We have to remember the good times they gave us. Now I am going to give my Lab a big hug and kiss for Kobe. 😥
Hello Barbara, thank you so much! We love and miss our little Kobe so much. He began Over The Hill Adventures with us and it was so hard to let him go. He traveled 33,000 miles with us. We asked ourselves how we can go on this adventure without him. After all we have always said we bought the trailer to travel with our furry friends. As God continues to heal our grieving hearts we are happy know Kobe is no longer suffering. We would have never thought Kobe would have such an impact in our hearts. Thank you for your kind words! Blessings. Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thank you guys! It was a tough one for sure. Those fur babies take a huge part of heart. God is healing our hearts we missed him so much! Thank you for your prayers. Blessings to you both, Stan and Rhonda❤️
Hello Carol, we appreciate you joining us every week. We love the fact we can help you find your new adventure. We love you!! Blessings on your trip to South Dakota. Stan and Rhonda❤
Thank you, Naomi. He was a special little guy. He was actually a Christmas gift 14 years ago for our daughter. He will be missed. Thank you for reaching out. We definitely appreciate you. Happy New Year ~ Rhonda and Stan
My wife is from Philippines. We are here now for the holidays. We selected 2 children through compassion international a while back that live here and are near our home here. We brought a small Christmas present for them as well. It's a great program. I'm glad you gave it a plug. Take care.
Hello Matt, that is awesome! We hope someday we can go to Indonesia and do the same. I grew up pretty much eating Indonesian food. We don’t have any relatives living there any longer. Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year. Thank you for joining us! Stan and Rhonda❤️
Hello Janice, thank you for your kind words. It is incredible how much it hurts to loose them. My daughter in law lost her dog while she was with us. Her mother was watching him. She was so broken. We can understand her pain. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
@@OverTheHillAdventures For your CO trip in the spring, I suggest Durango, Silverton, Ouray and Black Canyon of the Gunnison as well as the True Grit Cafe in Ridgeway. Of course this requires driving the Million Dollar Highway, scary for me pulling my little tear drop but Stan can handle with no problem. I love west CO. A little out of the way, but RoyalGorge swinging bridge is also a great stop. I hope to visit Utah this year. Not sure I’ll make all 5 but want to do the Kanab area, Bryce and Zion. Safe travels.
Recently found your channel and have been living vicariously through you ever since! You are living our future plans but we are just a few years behind you. On the 18 month countdown to DH retiring after 30 years as LEO. I love all of your video/ideas/suggestions and have used many to start our Amazon list in preparation to live out our plans! Looking forward to continue to be inspired and encouraged by you all! So sorry about your loss of Kobe, but how blessed was he to live such an adventurous life! 🖤🖤💙🖤🖤
Hello Connie, thank you for sharing with us and joining our journey. Your words are so kind and humbling. We are so excited for you and your future plans. Retiring early was the best decision we ever made. We realize early on we are not guaranteed tomorrow. Our 2024 mantra is, Live Your Best Life! Thank DH for his service and tell him the water is great on this side. We have never looked back! Blessings to your future plans, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
I'm so sorry for your loss of your pup, I love watching your videos, and you make me miss our Grand Design Imagine, but we love our Brinkley. Keep up the great videos and I'll send some spots in upstate NY like you ask of me, I didn't forget, have a very happy New Year ,I can wait for your 24 adventures.
Hi Claudia, thank for joining us each week. This was a very difficult time for us. All we can do is remember all the good times we had with Kobe. Much love you are definitely one of our faithful followers and we appreciate you! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Enjoy your time off and enjoy your family you deserve it for sure! Looking forward to 2024! Love Kobe❤ he is out of pain running over the Rainbow bridge❤ love you guys!
Sounds like an exciting year coming up! We love SD too. Congratulations on 10 thousand subscribers 🥳So sorry about your little man. They are such a part of our lives. Hope to see you down the road in 2024! Michelle
Hello Michelle, thank you for joining us! We appreciate your kind words. Kobe was our little star who would have thought such a little fury quay would cause so much heart ache. We sure miss him. We also hope to see you down the road. Happy 2024! Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Hi Deb, thank you so much. That decision was the hardest decision we have ever made. Then to go through with it was the most unnatural thing. Kobe looked straight into Rhonda’s eyes before he went to sleep. 😭. Thank you for joining us! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Hello Sandy, thank you for sharing and joining us. You lost two in four months. We just can’t imagine! That must have been a difficult time. You understand the heart ache. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
I am so sorry for the loss of your fur baby ❤️🩹 Thank you so much for your positive, entertaining, educational videos. Watching you hike together inspires me to get out and be physical. My husband loves your channel which says a lot since watching UA-cam is my thing. He always says oh Stan I like him!!
Thank you so much for your condolences, Cecily. We appreciate you reaching out ☺️ It will be fun to see him throughout the rest of this season although it will be bitter sweet. We love hearing that we have inspired you to get active 🙌 it means so much to us to hear that! We started this journey 3 years ago and it’s been a blessing especially when we hear stories like yours. Tell your husband I like Stan too 🤪 Stan is a character 😂 We will be celebrating 30 years of marriage next year and he still has me laughing and keeps me entertained 🤣 Thank you for joining us and being a big part of our lives. God bless you and your hubby and Happy New Year 🎊 ~ Rhonda and Stan
I am so sorry about Kobe! It is so hard losing a furry family member. You have a lot of great memories with him! Hope you have a great 2024. Looking forward to more of your adventures.
Thank you, Terry. It just seemed to happen so fast and we weren’t expecting it. So tough to lose a furry family member. 😢 It will be fun to see him in the rest of this season. It is truly bitter sweet. Happy New Year to you and your family! Thank you for being such a big part of ours! ☺️ ~ Rhonda and Stan
Sorry for your loss, our pets are very much apart of our family so their loss hurts so much. We have a Jack Russell who is probably in his last few years and enjoys our adventures camping. We will miss him when he leaves us, but until then we just enjoy him.
Hi Marc, you are so right! Give him a big hug! We no idea how we will start our next season without that little guy. We miss him so much! Thank you for your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Hello Benny, it was definitely tough. Thank you for sharing. It’s difficult to think about starting a new season without him. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for the updates, but y'all need a break once in a while. Have a wonderful time with the family! Looking forward to the rest of the UP adventures and the Albuquerque Ballon Fiesta. We lived in Central New Mexico for 28 years and though we've driven past the event many times, we never attended. Just too many people. It was fun to watch as we drove by, though. Bob saw the whole thing start in 1972 and watched it move from place to place growing and growing until it landed where it is now near Sandia Pueblo. We're surprised y'all were saying it isn't the largest anymore. Guess they ran out of room to grow. There's a lot to do around Ouray CO (pronounced "YOU-ray"). Lots of 4-wheeling, the Alpine Loop, waterfalls, Telluride CO, etc. Be sure to try Lizardhead Pass and the Ophir Loop. Lots of bike trails, too. Just need to get acclimated to the altitude and watch out for cerebral hypoxia. Enjoy! Again, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss of little Kobe. Our home was sad and empty without our kitty, Mr. Onions Littlebigcat around playing with the wrapping paper, ribbons and bows, and generally having a blast. We share in your grief. God bless y'all in the coming New Year and safe travels! Love y'all! Bob and Dottie
Bob and Dottie, Thank you so much for your sympathies. We know what you mean with things not being the same without them, especially this time of year. Kobe used to like to lay under the tree. He was a quiet guy most of the time, but the silence was deafening without him. We are feeling much better, especially with family around. Thank you so much for all the great suggestions for Colorado! And the pronunciation 👍We will add those places to list 👏 Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is still pretty large. Havasu Balloon Fiesta is quite a bit smaller, but still just as fun! We hope you had a Merry Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year! Love to meet you folks this year at some point! We certainly appreciate you both! Hugs and love! ~ Rhonda and Stan
Great update video, guys! You are a class act! Sweet tribute to your Kobe. Can’t wait for Utah/Colorado! It’s on our list so I’m sure we’ll get lots of tips! Bless you guys! Can’t wait to see you in the big Q!! D & L
We hope you guys are enjoying the downtime with family. It was fun to watch your recap although losing Kobe was heartbreaking. We're looking forward to seeing you in Quartzsite and spending time together. Maybe a bike ride or two. Take care!
Oh Stan & Rhonda! We are so sorry about Colby❤. We are a little behind watching your adventures because of Christmas & associated events, so we are just now watching this video. Loss is hard. It was always fun seeing you push Colby around in his stroller. He will be missed by all of us as well. Your up coming year sounds like it will be action packed, can’t wait to follow along with you. Much love & many blessings. Lyle & Carol
Lyle and Carol, Thank you for your kind and comforting words. We miss the little guy so much. We look forward to seeing him throughout the rest of our Michigan season. It will be bitter sweet. We appreciate the both of you! Thank you for being a big part of our lives ❤️ Happy New Year 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
I am so sorry for your loss of Kobe. What a cutie and he was such a special addition to your family! I am a bit newer to the channel.. but I have to say Kobe was the one that pulled me to your channel. I landed on the video where he was wanting to make it up that dune and then when he did, he was just flying down so happy afterward. I realized watching that video how much he looked like our Shitzu! Almost identical! He had the same thing as Kobe with his back (especially as he got older) and eventually couldn't use his back legs. He was with us for 16-17 years. He has been gone for over a little 3 years. As Kobe, our little guy was part of us, our family, and it is so difficult to let them go. But, like you said, to let them go, is a blessing as they are no longer suffering. Hugs and Prayers to you guys! ❤🙏
Kori and Jack, First of all thank you for being a part of the OTHA family! Such a pleasure to meet you! It brought tears to our eyes and joy to our hearts knowing that Kobe was the one that pulled you to our channel. We especially loved that moment too where he climbed to the top of the dune. We truly thought we had a few more years with him because he was doing so good. That was just this past May. Things certainly can change fast. You two know what wonderful dogs they are and what characters they can be. 😂 He was our daughter’s dog technically. We had gotten him for her 14 years ago for Christmas. Kind of fitting we lost him this time of year. 🎄 We welcome you to our channel and look forward to connecting with you more. Happy New Year Blessings 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Sad to hear about Kobe it’s so hard to let them go but it’s hard to see them in pain too 🥲. That is so great to hear you are sponsoring a child with your love and faith, we adopted 4 children and fostered 10 other children in our home and it fills your heart with happiness and love 💕. We couldn’t have children so we filled our home with children and dogs and loved them all. In joy family time we had my family and Cathy’s family come over for Xmas and everyone loved 🥰 it so much. Sounds like you guys have a great year ahead can’t believe over 10000 and 4 years already. Keep up the amazing work. Thanks From Wisconsin
Robert and Cathy, your Christmas sounded like wonderful family time as well 👏🙌 It’s so much fun to plan and prepare for all the festivities and then it just goes by too fast. What a lovely gift you gave and received by adopting and fostering so many children in your home! What wonderful memories you have made through the years 🙌 Thank you for sharing so much about yourselves with us. We can’t wait to make it to Wisconsin and finally put your faces with names. We were so close this past year, but God will set aside the perfect time. We love you both and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a part of our family ❤️ Happy New Year 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Thank you for your condolences, Lou. We know it hits hard for so many of us pet lovers ❤️ It’s just a fact of life, but never gets easier. We appreciate you being a part of the OTHA family. Happy New Year! 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Looking forward to your upcoming season. You guys inspired us to visit Fallcreek Falls State Park. Sorry to hear about your loss as we also travel with our two dogs. All the best.
This was a great travel year for you guys, we really enjoyed your videos this year and got a number of good ideas. Loved the product reviews as well. Your plans for '24 sound great, and we hope we can meet up with you in Quartzsite - for sure at the Grand Design Rally, but also earlier if you do a meetup - we will be there from Jan 20th so hopefully run into you sometime around then. So sorry to hear about Kobe - but you guys did give him a great life and we felt fortunate to get to meet him in Albuquerque. Best wishes for '24
Hi Bob and Dang, Thank you for your condolences regarding Kobe. That’s right. Glad you got to meet the little guy. ☺️ We look forward to seeing you in Quartzsite! We will touch base once we are there. Happy New Year! ❤️ Rhonda and Stan
Hello Kathy, thank you for your kind words. Kobe had such a funny personality growing up. He was not afraid of anything and his favorite thing to do was chasing big dogs. Thank you for sharing! Stan and Rhonda❤️
I am sorry for your loss. I will miss seeing Kobe in future videos. It sounds like you have a busy first half of 2024. Thank you for sharing. Peace and Safe Travels.
Sorry again to hear about Kobe! You have a lot planned again. CO is amazing. We have friends in Durango. We love the area. There is a lot to do in Durango, Ouray, Silverton, Aspen, Breckenridge. Blessings in the new year.
We are really looking forward to the new year! We bet you two have a lot on the calendar as well! Can’t wait to hear where you are headed. Happy New Year! ❤️ Rhonda and Stan
We are headed to SD around Mothers day. We are actually staying in Bluebell CG bc of your fabulous videos. We love your videos. Sorry for your loss I know its tough losing a family member😢. Be Safe Happy Travels.
You will love South Dakota during that time. Bluebell is perfectly centered. You will see all the baby bisons!! Thank you for your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
If you do get to Colorado, spend a couple days in Glenwood Springs. Great sites and some really fun bike trails down Glenwood Canyon. Doc Holiday Grave, Hot Springs and Glenwood Caverns.
When you make it to southwest Colorado you’ll have no shortage of things to do. Make sure you check out Mesa Verde National Park and sachets range led tour into the cliff dwellings. Consider staying at Ridgway State Park, it’s a great base to explore the area and they have full hookup sights available in some of the loops. Lastly, so sorry to hear about your pup, it’s never easy saying goodbye 😢.
I guess is should add that Ridgway is not the best spot to explore Mesa Verde. Rather, it’s a very central location to Ouray, Telluride, the Million dollar Highway, and other attractions. There are a couple of spots in or near Mancos that are much closer to Mesa Verde 🇺🇸
Hello Richard, thank you for joining us. We had the opportunity to see Mesa Verde National Park. It was one of our earlier videos. It was an incredible experience and hardly no one was there. We explored that entire area. We stayed at Westview RV Resort. Check out our video! We are looking forward to the Million Dollar Highway. We will check out Ridgeway State Park. We are hoping to see Rocky National Park 🏞️ Thank you for your kind words and all your suggestions. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda ❤️🙏🏼
Sorry to hear about losing your little buddy, we know the pain and it's truly hard. Have a great visit with the family, grandkids are the best. Hope to see you at the rally at Quartzsite.
Family time is a MUST, YOU KNOW if you have more than 12 grandchildren you will be a TRIBE. And that is a Beautiful thing. Take care, Drive safe. Have a beautiful New Year’s. And since you guys have a BIG FOLLOWING now, don’t forget us little people. Take CARE
Hello Tim, we appreciate your comments every week. You are one of our faithful followers. Looking forward to see you at Q! Have a great New Years!! Much love, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Much respect for the love and care you gave Kobe. He had the best life he could have had due to your love. You guys also inspire many who watch your video. I'm one of those people. So, thank you. Can't wait to see your 2024 work.
Hi Guys!! Thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate your kind words. We hope our journey will continue to inspire you. Blessings to you and safe travels! Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Hello Butch and Becky, Compassion International has an incredible blessing to us. We hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Blessings and safe travels, Stan and Rhonda❤
As dog lovers we know how difficult it is to lose our best friends, their unconditional love is what it’s all about, they always leave us too soon, you guys are the best! Looking forward to 2024 with you guys ❤️❤️
Hi Chris, thank you for your kind words! We appreciate every single word. Only dog lovers can understand the pain when they leave us behind. You are so right they have unconditional love all the way to the end. Kobe looked at Rhonda straight into her eyes until he went to sleep. It was the hardest thing I have ever witnessed. Blessings to you, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
The Bride and I thoroughly enjoyed South Dakota thanks to you. I'm very sorry the loss of your puppy. Our dogs are family. Sending love and blessings to you both!
So sorry to hear about the loss of Kobe. Such a cute pup. Kathy and I know how difficult that decision is to make. Kobe is at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for you. We still miss our 2 previous dogs from years ago. What a good thing you are doing by sponsoring a child. Your reward will be great in Heaven. Looking forward to your 2024 adventures. Happy New Year!
Hello Jim and Kathy, thank you for your kind words! They become such a big part of our lives. Thank you for joining us we appreciate you. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
We recently fou d your channel.and we have been catching up with all that we had missed. We love your content. We love that you are people of faith, but you don't have to bring it up 10 times a video. We are also Christians who love to travel and we have a Shih Tzu named Zora. We just saw this video and are very saddened about Coby. Losing dogs is the worst thing we ever endure. Safe Travels @ourquesttoseeitall
So sorry for the loss of your fur baby ,Colby.... I know he will be truly missed.
I am so sorry for your loss of Kobe. You gave him his best dog life he could have ever had. May God comfort you and may all of the wonderful memories of the joy that he brought you bring you peace. God bless you in the New Year!
Hello Renee, thank you so much for your kind words. God promises he will heal the broken hearted. We are healing from our broken heart. Who would have thought this little guy could take so much of our heart. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
So very sorry for your loss. I know it’s been a few weeks but hope our Father provided you with peace and comfort during that difficult time and now.
Thank you for your condolences. It truly means so much to us. It was a difficult loss because he was such a big part of our lives for so long. Change and loss is just hard. 🥹 Yes, even in the loss of a pet we found incredible comfort in the Lord. God is a good, good Father 🙌 Thank you ~ Rhonda and Stan

My wife is from Philippines. We are here now for the holidays. We selected 2 children through compassion international a while back that live here and are near our home here. We brought a small Christmas present for them as well. It's a great program. I'm glad you gave it a plug.
Take care.

Merry Christmas y’all. My heart aches with you for the loss of Kobe. Hope you enjoy time with the family. Happy 2024!
Hello Janice, thank you for your kind words. It is incredible how much it hurts to loose them. My daughter in law lost her dog while she was with us. Her mother was watching him. She was so broken. We can understand her pain. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
@@OverTheHillAdventures For your CO trip in the spring, I suggest Durango, Silverton, Ouray and Black Canyon of the Gunnison as well as the True Grit Cafe in Ridgeway. Of course this requires driving the Million Dollar Highway, scary for me pulling my little tear drop but Stan can handle with no problem. I love west CO. A little out of the way, but RoyalGorge swinging bridge is also a great stop. I hope to visit Utah this year. Not sure I’ll make all 5 but want to do the Kanab area, Bryce and Zion. Safe travels.

Recently found your channel and have been living vicariously through you ever since! You are living our future plans but we are just a few years behind you. On the 18 month countdown to DH retiring after 30 years as LEO. I love all of your video/ideas/suggestions and have used many to start our Amazon list in preparation to live out our plans! Looking forward to continue to be inspired and encouraged by you all! So sorry about your loss of Kobe, but how blessed was he to live such an adventurous life!
🖤🖤💙🖤🖤
Hello Connie, thank you for sharing with us and joining our journey. Your words are so kind and humbling. We are so excited for you and your future plans. Retiring early was the best decision we ever made. We realize early on we are not guaranteed tomorrow. Our 2024 mantra is, Live Your Best Life! Thank DH for his service and tell him the water is great on this side. We have never looked back! Blessings to your future plans, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
I'm so sorry for your loss of your pup, I love watching your videos, and you make me miss our Grand Design Imagine, but we love our Brinkley. Keep up the great videos and I'll send some spots in upstate NY like you ask of me, I didn't forget, have a very happy New Year ,I can wait for your 24 adventures.
Hi Cindy, thank you! We appreciate you very much! Thank you for joining us on this very tough video. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼

Hello Jeff and Lorie, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! We appreciate you guys! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Sounds like an exciting year coming up! We love SD too. Congratulations on 10 thousand subscribers 🥳So sorry about your little man. They are such a part of our lives. Hope to see you down the road in 2024! Michelle
Hello Michelle, thank you for joining us! We appreciate your kind words. Kobe was our little star who would have thought such a little fury quay would cause so much heart ache. We sure miss him. We also hope to see you down the road. Happy 2024! Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
So sorry for your loss! 😢
Thank you! It is still tough seeing him in our videos. We miss him very much.
I so know the hurt of making that decision. Hugs to you both!
Hi Deb, thank you so much. That decision was the hardest decision we have ever made. Then to go through with it was the most unnatural thing. Kobe looked straight into Rhonda’s eyes before he went to sleep. 😭. Thank you for joining us! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
We are so sorry for your loss. We have 2 little ones ourselves love your videos.
Hello Michael, give them some big hugs. We miss Kobe so much! Thank you for joining us! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
🙏So sorry for your loss! He looked like a very happy guy and had a good life. In 2020 my husband and I lost two Shih Tzu fur babies in four months. 🙏
Hello Sandy, thank you for sharing and joining us. You lost two in four months. We just can’t imagine! That must have been a difficult time. You understand the heart ache. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for the videos. So sorry for your loss.
Thank you! Stan and Rhonda ❤️🙏🏼
So sorry to hear about Kobe. I always look forward to your videos. I hope you have a happy and healthy New Year.
Hello Barbara, thank you! Thank you for joining us! We appreciate you! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
I am so sorry for the loss of your fur baby ❤️🩹 Thank you so much for your positive, entertaining, educational videos. Watching you hike together inspires me to get out and be physical. My husband loves your channel which says a lot since watching UA-cam is my thing. He always says oh Stan I like him!!
Thank you so much for your condolences, Cecily. We appreciate you reaching out ☺️ It will be fun to see him throughout the rest of this season although it will be bitter sweet. We love hearing that we have inspired you to get active 🙌 it means so much to us to hear that! We started this journey 3 years ago and it’s been a blessing especially when we hear stories like yours. Tell your husband I like Stan too 🤪 Stan is a character 😂 We will be celebrating 30 years of marriage next year and he still has me laughing and keeps me entertained 🤣 Thank you for joining us and being a big part of our lives. God bless you and your hubby and Happy New Year 🎊 ~ Rhonda and Stan
I am so sorry about Kobe! It is so hard losing a furry family member. You have a lot of great memories with him! Hope you have a great 2024. Looking forward to more of your adventures.
Thank you, Terry. It just seemed to happen so fast and we weren’t expecting it. So tough to lose a furry family member. 😢 It will be fun to see him in the rest of this season. It is truly bitter sweet. Happy New Year to you and your family! Thank you for being such a big part of ours! ☺️ ~ Rhonda and Stan
So sorry for the loss of your Kobe 🐶🐾
Help Maria, thank you!🙏🏼
Sorry for your loss, our pets are very much apart of our family so their loss hurts so much. We have a Jack Russell who is probably in his last few years and enjoys our adventures camping. We will miss him when he leaves us, but until then we just enjoy him.
Hi Marc, you are so right! Give him a big hug! We no idea how we will start our next season without that little guy. We miss him so much! Thank you for your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
So sorry for your loss. We lost one of our camping pups in July. He really enjoyed all of our trips.
Hello Benny, it was definitely tough. Thank you for sharing. It’s difficult to think about starting a new season without him. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for the updates, but y'all need a break once in a while. Have a wonderful time with the family! Looking forward to the rest of the UP adventures and the Albuquerque Ballon Fiesta. We lived in Central New Mexico for 28 years and though we've driven past the event many times, we never attended. Just too many people. It was fun to watch as we drove by, though. Bob saw the whole thing start in 1972 and watched it move from place to place growing and growing until it landed where it is now near Sandia Pueblo. We're surprised y'all were saying it isn't the largest anymore. Guess they ran out of room to grow.
There's a lot to do around Ouray CO (pronounced "YOU-ray"). Lots of 4-wheeling, the Alpine Loop, waterfalls, Telluride CO, etc. Be sure to try Lizardhead Pass and the Ophir Loop. Lots of bike trails, too. Just need to get acclimated to the altitude and watch out for cerebral hypoxia. Enjoy!
Again, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss of little Kobe. Our home was sad and empty without our kitty, Mr. Onions Littlebigcat around playing with the wrapping paper, ribbons and bows, and generally having a blast. We share in your grief.
God bless y'all in the coming New Year and safe travels!
Love y'all!
Bob and Dottie
Bob and Dottie, Thank you so much for your sympathies. We know what you mean with things not being the same without them, especially this time of year. Kobe used to like to lay under the tree. He was a quiet guy most of the time, but the silence was deafening without him. We are feeling much better, especially with family around.
Thank you so much for all the great suggestions for Colorado! And the pronunciation 👍We will add those places to list 👏
Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta is still pretty large. Havasu Balloon Fiesta is quite a bit smaller, but still just as fun!
We hope you had a Merry Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year! Love to meet you folks this year at some point!
We certainly appreciate you both! Hugs and love! ~ Rhonda and Stan
Great update video, guys! You are a class act! Sweet tribute to your Kobe. Can’t wait for Utah/Colorado! It’s on our list so I’m sure we’ll get lots of tips! Bless you guys! Can’t wait to see you in the big Q!! D & L
Hi Dan and Lyndi, thank you for joining us on this very difficult video. We look forward to Q too!! Blessings to you both, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
We hope you guys are enjoying the downtime with family. It was fun to watch your recap although losing Kobe was heartbreaking. We're looking forward to seeing you in Quartzsite and spending time together. Maybe a bike ride or two. Take care!
Hi Guys, thank you! We will see you soon!
Oh Stan & Rhonda! We are so sorry about Colby❤. We are a little behind watching your adventures because of Christmas & associated events, so we are just now watching this video. Loss is hard. It was always fun seeing you push Colby around in his stroller. He will be missed by all of us as well. Your up coming year sounds like it will be action packed, can’t wait to follow along with you. Much love & many blessings. Lyle & Carol
Lyle and Carol, Thank you for your kind and comforting words. We miss the little guy so much. We look forward to seeing him throughout the rest of our Michigan season. It will be bitter sweet. We appreciate the both of you! Thank you for being a big part of our lives ❤️ Happy New Year 🎆
~ Rhonda and Stan
I am so sorry for your loss of Kobe. What a cutie and he was such a special addition to your family!
I am a bit newer to the channel.. but I have to say Kobe was the one that pulled me to your channel. I landed on the video where he was wanting to make it up that dune and then when he did, he was just flying down so happy afterward. I realized watching that video how much he looked like our Shitzu! Almost identical! He had the same thing as Kobe with his back (especially as he got older) and eventually couldn't use his back legs. He was with us for 16-17 years. He has been gone for over a little 3 years.
As Kobe, our little guy was part of us, our family, and it is so difficult to let them go. But, like you said, to let them go, is a blessing as they are no longer suffering. Hugs and Prayers to you guys! ❤🙏
Kori and Jack, First of all thank you for being a part of the OTHA family! Such a pleasure to meet you! It brought tears to our eyes and joy to our hearts knowing that Kobe was the one that pulled you to our channel. We especially loved that moment too where he climbed to the top of the dune. We truly thought we had a few more years with him because he was doing so good. That was just this past May. Things certainly can change fast. You two know what wonderful dogs they are and what characters they can be. 😂 He was our daughter’s dog technically. We had gotten him for her 14 years ago for Christmas. Kind of fitting we lost him this time of year. 🎄
We welcome you to our channel and look forward to connecting with you more. Happy New Year Blessings 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Sad to hear about Kobe it’s so hard to let them go but it’s hard to see them in pain too 🥲. That is so great to hear you are sponsoring a child with your love and faith, we adopted 4 children and fostered 10 other children in our home and it fills your heart with happiness and love 💕. We couldn’t have children so we filled our home with children and dogs and loved them all. In joy family time we had my family and Cathy’s family come over for Xmas and everyone loved 🥰 it so much. Sounds like you guys have a great year ahead can’t believe over 10000 and 4 years already. Keep up the amazing work. Thanks From Wisconsin
Robert and Cathy, your Christmas sounded like wonderful family time as well 👏🙌 It’s so much fun to plan and prepare for all the festivities and then it just goes by too fast. What a lovely gift you gave and received by adopting and fostering so many children in your home! What wonderful memories you have made through the years 🙌 Thank you for sharing so much about yourselves with us. We can’t wait to make it to Wisconsin and finally put your faces with names. We were so close this past year, but God will set aside the perfect time. We love you both and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being a part of our family ❤️ Happy New Year 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan

I'm so sorry for your loss. Furry family loss is never easy. Stay positive.
Thank you for your condolences, Lou. We know it hits hard for so many of us pet lovers ❤️ It’s just a fact of life, but never gets easier. We appreciate you being a part of the OTHA family. Happy New Year! 🎆 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Looking forward to your upcoming season. You guys inspired us to visit Fallcreek Falls State Park. Sorry to hear about your loss as we also travel with our two dogs. All the best.
Hello Jeff, wasn’t Fall Creek Falls amazing!! Give you further babies a big hug. This was very difficult for us. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
We’ll see you in Kanab!
Awesome!! It will be lots of fun!!
Love your channel
Thank you so much! It means a lot to us to hear that. We look forward to having you as part of the OTHA family! ~ Stan and Rhonda
This was a great travel year for you guys, we really enjoyed your videos this year and got a number of good ideas. Loved the product reviews as well. Your plans for '24 sound great, and we hope we can meet up with you in Quartzsite - for sure at the Grand Design Rally, but also earlier if you do a meetup - we will be there from Jan 20th so hopefully run into you sometime around then. So sorry to hear about Kobe - but you guys did give him a great life and we felt fortunate to get to meet him in Albuquerque. Best wishes for '24
Hi Bob and Dang, Thank you for your condolences regarding Kobe. That’s right. Glad you got to meet the little guy. ☺️ We look forward to seeing you in Quartzsite! We will touch base once we are there. Happy New Year! ❤️ Rhonda and Stan
We have a dog who looks like Coby. So sorry for your loss.
Hello Kathy, thank you for your kind words. Kobe had such a funny personality growing up. He was not afraid of anything and his favorite thing to do was chasing big dogs. Thank you for sharing! Stan and Rhonda❤️
I am sorry for your loss. I will miss seeing Kobe in future videos. It sounds like you have a busy first half of 2024. Thank you for sharing. Peace and Safe Travels.
Hello Craig, thank you it was a tough one for us! We will definitely miss him. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼💔
Sorry again to hear about Kobe! You have a lot planned again. CO is amazing. We have friends in Durango. We love the area. There is a lot to do in Durango, Ouray, Silverton, Aspen, Breckenridge. Blessings in the new year.
We are really looking forward to the new year! We bet you two have a lot on the calendar as well! Can’t wait to hear where you are headed. Happy New Year! ❤️ Rhonda and Stan
We are headed to SD around Mothers day. We are actually staying in Bluebell CG bc of your fabulous videos. We love your videos. Sorry for your loss I know its tough losing a family member😢. Be Safe Happy Travels.
You will love South Dakota during that time. Bluebell is perfectly centered. You will see all the baby bisons!! Thank you for your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
If you do get to Colorado, spend a couple days in Glenwood Springs. Great sites and some really fun bike trails down Glenwood Canyon. Doc Holiday Grave, Hot Springs and Glenwood Caverns.
Thank you Marcus!
When you make it to southwest Colorado you’ll have no shortage of things to do. Make sure you check out Mesa Verde National Park and sachets range led tour into the cliff dwellings. Consider staying at Ridgway State Park, it’s a great base to explore the area and they have full hookup sights available in some of the loops. Lastly, so sorry to hear about your pup, it’s never easy saying goodbye 😢.
I guess is should add that Ridgway is not the best spot to explore Mesa Verde. Rather, it’s a very central location to Ouray, Telluride, the Million dollar Highway, and other attractions. There are a couple of spots in or near Mancos that are much closer to Mesa Verde 🇺🇸
Hello Richard, thank you for joining us. We had the opportunity to see Mesa Verde National Park. It was one of our earlier videos. It was an incredible experience and hardly no one was there. We explored that entire area. We stayed at Westview RV Resort. Check out our video! We are looking forward to the Million Dollar Highway. We will check out Ridgeway State Park. We are hoping to see Rocky National Park 🏞️ Thank you for your kind words and all your suggestions. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda ❤️🙏🏼
So sorry to hear about Kobe Jo.
Hello Patty, thank you! God promises he will heal the broken hearted. We are doing better and miss him so much! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda ❤️🙏🏼
Sorry to hear about losing your little buddy, we know the pain and it's truly hard. Have a great visit with the family, grandkids are the best. Hope to see you at the rally at Quartzsite.
Hello Tary, you will definitely see us at the Quartzsite Rally. Thank you for your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Sorry that I misspelled Kobe Jo...
Hello Ronnie, thank you for your kind words. No worries on the spelling. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Family time is a MUST, YOU KNOW if you have more than 12 grandchildren you will be a TRIBE. And that is a Beautiful thing. Take care, Drive safe. Have a beautiful New Year’s. And since you guys have a BIG FOLLOWING now, don’t forget us little people. Take CARE
Hello Tim, we appreciate your comments every week. You are one of our faithful followers. Looking forward to see you at Q! Have a great New Years!! Much love, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Much respect for the love and care you gave Kobe. He had the best life he could have had due to your love. You guys also inspire many who watch your video. I'm one of those people. So, thank you. Can't wait to see your 2024 work.
Hi Guys!! Thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate your kind words. We hope our journey will continue to inspire you. Blessings to you and safe travels! Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Wow! We have been sponsoring a child through Compassion for about the past 6 years. What a blessing it has been.
Hello Butch and Becky, Compassion International has an incredible blessing to us. We hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Blessings and safe travels, Stan and Rhonda❤
The tribute to Kobe was so touching ❤
Hi Lori, it was a very sad day for us. We appreciate and thank you for joining us. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤
As dog lovers we know how difficult it is to lose our best friends, their unconditional love is what it’s all about, they always leave us too soon, you guys are the best! Looking forward to 2024 with you guys ❤️❤️
Hi Chris, thank you for your kind words! We appreciate every single word. Only dog lovers can understand the pain when they leave us behind. You are so right they have unconditional love all the way to the end. Kobe looked at Rhonda straight into her eyes until he went to sleep. It was the hardest thing I have ever witnessed. Blessings to you, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
The Bride and I thoroughly enjoyed South Dakota thanks to you. I'm very sorry the loss of your puppy. Our dogs are family. Sending love and blessings to you both!
Hello Ken, we appreciate your kind words. We are excited to hear you enjoyed South Dakota! Blessings to you both, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
So sorry to hear about the loss of Kobe. Such a cute pup. Kathy and I know how difficult that decision is to make. Kobe is at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for you. We still miss our 2 previous dogs from years ago. What a good thing you are doing by sponsoring a child. Your reward will be great in Heaven. Looking forward to your 2024 adventures. Happy New Year!
Hello Jim and Kathy, thank you for your kind words! They become such a big part of our lives. Thank you for joining us we appreciate you. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼

Hello Rick, we hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Blessings to you and your family! Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
We recently fou d your channel.and we have been catching up with all that we had missed. We love your content. We love that you are people of faith, but you don't have to bring it up 10 times a video. We are also Christians who love to travel and we have a Shih Tzu named Zora. We just saw this video and are very saddened about Coby. Losing dogs is the worst thing we ever endure. Safe Travels @ourquesttoseeitall
Hello Jim, thank you for joining us! We appreciate your kind words. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
