- Опубліковано 27 лют 2024
- 🌉Stan and Rhonda from Over The Hill Adventures have finally finished their amazing journey exploring Pure Michigan. In this episode of Rally Bound & Beyond, with sad hearts they cross over the Michigan/Ohio border headed for Maumee Bay State Park near Toledo, Ohio. Minutes before arriving, they cross over the Maumee River on the beautiful Veterans Glass City Skyway Bridge. Caught totally off guard, when they enter Maumee Bay State Park, they are met with beautiful wildlife dancing across the meadow. They discover that Maumee Bay is located on the shores of Lake Erie. It's one of the largest and most beautiful state parks they have ever been too. They compare it to their favorite state park, Fall Creek Falls State Park in Tennessee.
Come with Stan and Rhonda as they continue their adventures in this episode of Rally Bound & Beyond as they travel across this beautiful country God gave us all to explore.

Those donuts looked amazing. Im a sucker for a classic cinnamon sugar and apple cider
They were so good! Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Our daughter lives in Toledo. We love Maumee Bay state park. We walk on the walk way may times. We will camp there this summer. Ohio is full a very great state parks.
Hi Dave. I would have to agree with you!! Thank you for joining us! Ohio State Parks are amazing. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
This was a great video and thanks for sharing. I've lived in the greater Toledo/Northwest Ohio area for the last almost 30 years. I've been to Maumee Bay State Park on many occasions, and it is a true gem. What I did not know was: Fleitz Pumpkin Farm. I always enjoy learning of new venues in my own back yard, so I appreciate you sharing that. I look forward to visiting Fleitz Pumpkin Farm this fall. If you visit again, I'll boat you out to the Toledo Harbor Light - which is the 'real' lighthouse of our area. The one in the video, is actually privately owned. Thanks again for sharing.
Good morning Brett! We are thrilled we were able to share about something new for you to experience in your own backyard 👏 It truly was a treat and we wouldn’t have known about it if our wonderful waitress hadn’t have shared! We always say talk to the locals 😀 We have a son who lives in Columbus so we find ourselves out that direction several times a year. Thank you so much for the amazing offer! See, who knew that was privately owned 😂 Gotta talk to the locals 👏 We will look forward to meeting you some day. Thank you for reaching out! ~ Rhonda and Stan
Well, I eat my donuts the old fashioned way, with my hands. No forks. And this video make me hungry for a DONUT.
I have my 7 year old grandson every Tuesday and Thursday all summer and we take him every other weekend and a full week every year to a local campground. We had a 2970 RL and this will be our first year with a motorhome. He calls me Mommy-Nana because I have him so often he would call me mama and I had to remind him I’m his Nana so the mommy Nana stuck. 😂We bring a hammock and board games but when you’re camping, you don’t really need much. 😊
Hi Linda, what a blessing! Thank you for sharing your story with us. We love to read them! Thank you for joining us on this adventure. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
I had to chuckle when, in the last video, you said you had a 6.5 hour travel day to drive through Michigan. You dud really well getting through at 8.5 hours. Ann Arbor is heavy traffic with it being a collage town and the the University of Michigan hospital there. But 23 is the safest way to come down the state and stay away from Detriot while towing. The state park there in Ohio is amazing we've driven through it but never have gotten back there to actually camp. I'll have to out them on the list for next year. Way to go in helping out the staff of Grace church!!!
When it comes to the grand kids. I would have some travel ganes,coloring book and crayons or markers, or sidewalk chalk kids love that stuff. We've camped with our grandkids and those are some special memories!
Hi Deb, thank you for sharing and joining us! Thank you for all your wisdom. We will definitely be back to Michigan. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Another beautiful site! And full hook up! I will save this video too. We may have another destination to visit.😊
😂 This one is one of our favorites! So much to do and you never have to leave the park! Well, maybe to get a donut 🍩 😂
This place looks great, I'm gonna put it on our must go to list, not to far for us we live in upstate NY, we take two of our grands with us at least 2 trips a season, they love it especially my 10 year old grandson, he loves to go bike riding on the trails.
Hello Cindy, this is a must place to visit. You will absolutely love it! Thank you for sharing. We raise our kids camping now we are working on the next generation. It is way better outside. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda❤️🙏🏼
Thanks for showing us the state park. We will put it on our list of if we are in the area. We have been to Falls Creek Falls, and really liked it as well.
Hi Jane, if you love Fall Creek Falls you will love this state park too! Thank you for joining us! Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Wow that’s a amazing state park. We don’t do a lot of them just because they are so hard to get a reservation at. Looks like we will have to try a day or two before and see if it works. Great video treasure hunt, donuts, beautiful park. Thanks From Wisconsin
Hello Bob and Cathy, the whole Michigan trip was not planned with no reservations. We were really surprised how crowded the campgrounds were when we got there. The cancellation system really work. Thank you for joining us! Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Wow...another great video. Thank you for sharing your adventure, again. Blessings
Hello Betty Jo, it was a beautiful state park but not as beautiful as Fall Creek Falls. Thank you for joining us this week. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Looks like a great park.
Hello Barbara, It was an amazing State Park definitely in the top 5. Thank for joining us. Stan and Rhonda 🙏🏼❤️
We overnighted twice at Maumee coming back from the UP to PA. Thx for the Primo water tip. We'll try it this year on the SD / MI trip!
Hi Benny, thank you for joining us. The water was a game changer for us. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
We just watched your Maumee bay Ohio video and realized that we were there at the same time as you were. And we left and went to Alum Creek SP.
Maumee Bay SP is our all time favorite spot. Strange enough we just spent the winter in Lake Havasu City , AZ
Mike and Debbie, We just read this and can’t believe our paths didn’t cross somewhere along the way!! That’s just incredible! Great minds ! 😂 Well, let’s make sure they do next winter in Havasu 😃 We’re glad you will be back to enjoy the beautiful winter with us. ~ Rhonda and Stan
We love Maumee Bay Staye park. We have a Christmas Campout there every December. You should join us!
Wow!! That sounds like a wonderful snowy time. How beautiful is that!! We love that place. Thank you for joining us. Stan and Rhonda
We have 9 grands. Five of them camp with us every summer for at least a week but usually two. We hike, play games, puzzles, ladderball, darts, kayak and swim for activities. We take a pizza oven and everyone makes their own pizzas it’s a favorite meal.
That is so awesome! Thank you for sharing and joining us! Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Our grandkids love going camping with us. Last year we stayed at Disney Fort Wilderness and were the support unit. We took them back to the RV for lunch and naps. And also, gave our adult children time to do adult rides and also we let them have a Disney date night. Highly recommend going the 1st week of December so the kids and experience the decorations at rv site.
Hi Jim, wow!! Disney Fort Wilderness! Now that is a dream come true for the grand kids. Thank you for sharing. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
We camp with our grands as much as we can, they love it,and so do we! We have to check out this state park, our son and family are 30minutes from there! Can’t wait, safe travels!
Hi Tammy! You will absolutely LOVE this place and so will the grands. The whole time all we could think about was how much fun we would have if we could meet our family there. Who knows. Maybe someday 🙏 Thanks for watching and for reaching out. ~ Rhonda and Stan
Our grand kids love dill pickles. We took pint mason jars and all the ingredients to make overnight refrigerator dill pickles. They thought that was the coolest thing ever. Along with the usual campfire and smores.
Well, that sounds fun! Thank you for the idea 💡 Our grandkids love them too and so do we 👏 We are looking forward to more adventures with the grandkids in the future. Thanks for watching and sharing. ~ Rhonda and Stan
Fall Creek Falls is my favorite state campground too! We can’t wait to try this campground.
Hi Karla, Maumee Bay State Park is a very close second and much closer. You will be shocked like we were. It was beautiful!! Thank you for joining us!! Blessings, Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
Love following your travels here in Pure Michigan!❤
Hi Joyce, Thank you for joining us! Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
P.S. I joined the Eagles Lodge while I was in Lake Havasu and are planning a return trip next winter.
That’s awesome! Great organization like the Elks! We joined the Elks a few years ago and the nice thing is, they have RV camping all over the country. See you next winter! ~ Rhonda and Stan
No grandkids yet but we will! Nice job on the fish Stan :) Great work as always!
Bod and Dang, thank you! My dad taught us fishing from the pier in Seal Beach. Surprisingly there are a lot of folks that don’t know how to fish. See you at the opening ceremony. Thank you for joining us. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
So glad you made it to Maumee Bay State Park!
Hi Rick, so glad you suggested it to us. We loved it. Hope you liked the shout out. Blessings, Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
What a fun video! I don't think I knew a turtle could be so cute!
Great State Park, .. might have to look that one up for the future. And the pumpkin farm at the end, what a gem! I love donutes and would have most likely went for the Chocolate with Spinkles, and my husband definitely would have went for the maple...lol..
Hi Kori and Jack! Yes, who knew turtles were so cute?! We had to put that guy in the video 🐢It was fascinating to see under the water and watch him stretch out like that. Maumee State Park needs to be on your list 😄 Thanks for watching and sharing your donuts of choice 😂🫶 ~ Rhonda and Stan
Four years ago, we bought a big 5th wheel. It has two bedrooms, a loft with a queen-sized bed, and a sofa that makes into a bed. We can sleep 7 comfortably. We have 5 grown children. Our youngest daughter turned 18 last June so she always went with us on weekends and trips. That will probably be different this summer. Our oldest daughter usually comes on weekends and stays a night with her two little girls, aged 5 and 3. The 5-year-old usually goes with us and will stay without her mother. Last fall we went to Custer State Park and had 4 of our children and our 2 grandchildren all there for a few days. It was a blast. It is why we got such a big RV. We, too, have had different modes of camping throughout the years. We started out with a tent, had a pop-up, a little travel trailer, an old motorhome, a big 4 room tent, an older 5th wheel, another bigger travel trailer, and now our 42 ft. 5th wheel. I think some of the best memories were made in the little travel trailer when our children were younger and we were, too. I hope your granddaughter will stay with you this time.
Our greatest memories were when we had our Class A we’d camp for years at the beach for two weeks then two weeks in Havasu. They are all grown but still talk about those memories. Thank you for sharing and joining us. Stan and Rhonda🙏🏼❤️
We also went camping with our kids. We had camping trips with our kids before they were a year old, in a tent!⛺️ after a few years we graduated to a pop-up. We now have a travel trailer. I’m happy to say that both our kids still like to camp and enjoy being outdoors.
Love this park ❤ my mom and dad had a truck camper and we would go camping there were five of us plus my mom and dad so it was pretty tight. We had a lot of fun and I still remember the trips!
It’s fun to see them create their own memories with their families 🥹
Camping is one of the best memories we can make with our kids! And now theirs 🤗
I’ll have one of each (doughnuts).
Right!!! They were so good!!
i would have got one of each donut
Trust us, it was so tempting! 🍩😋 Thanks for watching! 👍 ~ Rhonda and Stan
