- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- There's nothing like a little procrastination..about two years' worth! This one, however, we just didn't quite believe that we needed it. We were wrong! Join us this week as Ang discusses a little shower-cleaning magic and we dive head first into more Louisiana culture!

You folks have quickly become one of (if not the favorite) my favorite RV u tubers. Love the fact that you're so real. Living the RV life, but not on a fairy tale budget. Love how you look at things from a typical day to day real life view point, just like we have to. What I mean is like with your approach to solar, your truck, battery bank, etc. Your view matches with most peoples reality. You're also so fun to be with, and we camp with a dachshund as well so we have that in common too, lol.
That’s so kind of you to say! Thank you so much!
Nice hair cut Billy Bob. And we’ve been using an On The Go water softener for many years. Yes, it definitely makes a difference.
😁 Lowered my ears!
Another great video. Really enjoy watching you two .
😏Thank you!!
duct tape fixes everything, but you could have at least bought the gray to match the chair! 🤣 Thanks for showing us around. We have never been to Louisiana, so good to know! - Michelle
😁😁 Cody is too cheap to buy another roll of tape, when we still have some. Haha
Angela you look 👀 great driving the Ford
Ha! It’s the truck! I always tease Cody that driving that thing to the gas station is like putting a lady in a bikini, on your arm. The looks, attention and walk-ups that he gets are out of control! 🤣🤣 I get jealous! 🤪
I love your food and cooking videos! Keep them coming.
Thanks so much! 😊
Started watching your vids and I must say that I really enjoy watching you two. I particularly like how you show the campgrounds and the daily living interaction. Great Job. Thanks for sharing all the how to maintenance on your RV as well. 👍🏻
That’s so nice! Thank you so much!
Love eating boudin. Glad you guys like the southern hospitality here in southern Louisiana.
Yes! Loved it! ☺️☺️
Thanks for watching!
You two crack me up. Love Cody’s duck tape repair 😂. And never apologize for sharing all your food and restaurant experience and tips!!!
🤣When the pro does repairs! 😆 Thanks for watching!
Great video! Food looks so good:) great info on water softener and shower cleaner!
Thank you! Yes, so good!!
The food looks really good 👍🏻
So good! Thanks for watching!
A chair from Lippert???? If the chair frame is anything like the RV frames, hang on tight to the Margarita glass. You could be on the ground before you know it!😂😂😂😂😂 Thanks for another wonderful video. Love the time and effort that you take to make them for us.
Ouch! 🤣🤣 A few viewers said that the Kelty brand is good, so we may take a look at those. I figure we COULD have another chair for guests. ..maybe.. 😆
Very wise investment! I had one on my RV in 2000. Would not be without one.
Perfect, thank you!
Happy spouse, happy house!!!
Right! 😉
Louisiana has some great food 👍
For real! 😃
My husband and I have been watching for about a year. Love your videos. We have been avid campers for years and just purchased our 1st reflection fifh wheel and will be in Lake Shelbyville for Memorial day! Hope we run into you!
That’s so nice! Congrats on your new rig!
We normally spend a lot of time there, especially around the holidays, but I’m not sure about this year.
Hopefully we’ll have our plans after April, coming out in the next month or so.
Let us know if we end up crossing paths!
We luv trying the local restaurants any place we stay. Definitely prefer andouille sausage. Thanks for video and safe travels!!
It’s definitely part of it, isn’t it? ☺️ Thanks for watching!
Love love the video as always. Last one in the shower uses the squeegee every day so we never have to clean the doors. I use the blow dryer once a week to blow the water in the track to one end, then use a sponge to suck up what’s left and zip down the track to clean up any residue. Haven’t needed to scrub anything in 3 years and Is crystal clean all the time.
That’s fantastic! That’s a commitment! We started drying it everyday after our showers and then…kind of stopped.. 🤣🤣
But I believe that it works! The tracks are a great idea!
My husband noticed Cody’s grill grate is upside down! Just figured I’d mention it to y’all it doesn’t really matter to me if it cooks the food it’s good enough! Loved the video and as always love the two of you!
Cody says that he did realize it afterwards. He had pulled it to clean and didn’t notice unstop afterward. Ha! The things guys notice! 😁 It still ate! 🤓
Cool to see all the Louisiana food. I hope to be there in a few weeks.
Oh perfect! Have fun!
I love Cajun food! Went hunting in Monroe years ago and most of the others were from Louisiana. We hunted squirrels for supper one day and they used a pot over a fire that was full of everything vegetable and squirrel. Absolutely awesome, along with homemade venison tamales. I like the cooking side of life on the road! Will in Lafayette we also ate at Prejeans and found beignets. Disney’s French Quarters Resort has the best beignets. Been looking at water softeners. So confusing and more places for water leaks from the reviews for other manufacturers. Need to be a “vine customer” to try for free!
What an experience that you won’t forget! That’s great!
Any water connection is a leak possibly! Ha! I know some people mount them inside, but it does make me a bit nervous.
Yes, food is a GOOD THING. People cook so different.
It’s crazy how different the food can be! 🙂🙂
I'm watching water hardness tests, but all I'm thinking about is smoked boudin. Straight to a carnivore's heart...lol
..the important stuff! 😂
I’m glad we stocked the freezer or we’d be turning back around! 😁
Actually we LOVE watching foodie videos so bring it on. Love watching grilling, restaurant meals……all the things 🐷😁😜
Nice! 😁
Try putting Rainex wind shield treatment, everything just runs off the glass 😎👌
Another Rain-X suggestion! Wow! I KNEW you guys would have the answers!!!
I love watching Charley talk. Hey there a place called Darrell's in Lafayette. The have the best three meat sandwich it's awesome! I love me some beignets at Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans they are the BEST!
Nice! Charlie used to sing all the time before bed or we’d sing together while I cooked. We just stopped making him do too much. He’s retired. 😏
Can’t tell if your doors are glass in the shower but if they are…. After cleaning try RainX on the glass to keep it clean.
That’s a FANTASTIC idea!!! That’s the first I’ve heard of that, but it makes total sense!
Angela..... they do make pink duck tape!!!
😳😳🤯🤯I like the way you think! 🤓
Ya’ll went from the Corpus Christi area (where I currently live) to the Lafayette area (where I am from)😍
Enjoy the Acadiana area…great food, music, and people❤️⚜️
Oh! Yes…aggressive drivers is for sure (guilty as charged!)
Bahaha!
Loved the chair repair, you did exactly what my husband would have done. He keeps tape and super glue close by all the time!😂 How old are your pups? Our silly pup is 7 already, seems like time is flying.
Ha! Our Charlie is 12 and Eris is 6. It flies for sure!
Squeegee every shower and CLR every two weeks. Dip the showerhead in CLR. Use RainX after to keep the glass cleaner.
Wow! These are great suggestions! Thanks!
That's what we did in our house. It was a huge shower with a whole annoying glass surround. That stuff kept it beautiful. Also…its very slippery…like a skating rink.
Yikes! 😬
@@RVUntethered it's worth it. Just be sure to clean the bottom.
Don’t be sorry. I like your cooking shows.
Thanks!
Bought the water softener. What a difference! Thanks for the recommendation.
Fantastic! Yes, we could tell pretty quickly.
We just did our first regen on it (upcoming video). It wasn’t bad, but we did notice it wasn’t AS soft, so we did it shortly after a couple months. Depending on if you’re part time or full time, you may or may not be close to what the book says on it.
Yes I kind of figured that, we are full time as well. People with other brands say around a couple of weeks they regen. Full time with clothes washer. @@RVUntethered
Yes, got hungry at the end. Wishing we would have picked up a nice pecan Kringle at the store today. Safe travels…
I suppose I’ll have to put that on the list for next time! 😁 For you, of course! 😉 I haven’t heard of that!
@@RVUntethered definitely have to try a Racine danish Kringle! Lots of great flavors and a couple bakeries make them. I like the O&H bakery’s Kringle the best. Some people compare them to King cakes from down south but I personally think the Kringle is far better.
@@edgramza Oh I HAVE heard of that, now that you mention it! I have family from the Racine area and I remember them talking about it. Done! 😉
@@RVUntethered I had my office in Racine for many years and live 10 South in Kenosha so Kringle and I are still friends! 😄
@@edgramza 🤣
I start off my day with the Bible in a year podcast then some Ang and Cody. Cody easy on that frogger attitude, don't want to be reading about some road rage incident. Ang keep smiling. May God keep you both safe in your travels.
Haha! Thank you! 😊
Best investment we ever bought for our class A, was On the Go Water Softener. Been using it for 6 months and it works - big time.
Perfect!! Thanks!
Lol. That is not a true beignet. Glad you enjoyed Abbeville and found Prejeans. One of the best restaurants around
It did seem a little large! I GUESS we’ll have to try it again! 😉😉
Thanks guys, I always enjoy your videos. I've been wanting to ask you how far out do you reserve a campground? Or do you just wait and see what you can find on the way. I'm impressed with how you find campgrounds with some good prices. Stay safe. 😊
We aren’t the best examples! Ha! We are TRYING! I do get a lot of questions like this, so I am planning to do a ‘how I plan’ video, without making it boring or too deep into the weeds.
This year, we picked a handful of things that we don’t want to miss and booked them in advance. Then we fill in the gaps. We use a shared calendar just for our campgrounds. As I book, I put all the information in there, so I don’t forget.
With that being said, we have had good luck booking a day or two prior as well. The exception would be big event areas, or prime season in Florida, National parks..etc.
There ARE apps out there that help you plan but I have my process. Ha! I use them for campground research though.
More info on the RV Gaurd water softener please, how to maintain, clean, use it and how much, where to get one etc: A nice quick video please
You bet! I’ll drop the link below for some quick facts and pricing (you may be surprised at the price difference of other known brands). There is very little to do on them. You drain them, you backwash/‘recharge them’ with salt every so often. That’s about it! Which was the appeal to us!
This is helpful for us though, thank you! We will run through some details in our 3/12 vid for you. We have had some great questions for us to touch on. 🙂

@@RVUntethered thankyou, enjoy following you two, my wife and I are French Acadians from Nova Scotia, we spent 3 weeks in Baton Rouge, French Quarters, Lafeyette, and Cajun Country, the people are so nice and friendly.My wife is a Theriault and that name means alot to anyone with Acadian history, I am a Muise which is well known among Native and French history, anyway, thankyou for the varied topics that you cover, very interesting.😎
I'm not sure why You Tube held this comment, but thanks for sharing! I think that is pretty neat to be able to visit parts where we originated. Most of us are a mixed-bag of sorts and although we love seeing other cultures, seeing some of our own 'heritage' is fascinating!
Most of my heritage stems from Swiss and Native American (Ang), so those always pique my interest. :)
Safe travels my friend!
Just ordered the Water softener, will try it out this weekend, water out west is very hard!!
Nice!! HUGE difference! Let us know what you think!
Will do! Enjoy your channel, transplanted Arkansan myself.
Well all I can say is thanks for the heads up. Mrs loved the soft water, we have a home system so when we camp she was always saying how she missed her soft water! Very easy to use and worth he money!!
I love watching yall love your furbabies. That water softener looks like it's doing good on Ang's hair. I can tell a difference.
Thank you!!
Buc Ees sells those double wide chairs for $70
Do they??!! That’s not a bad deal! Before we bought this one, it was hard to find any under $100!
Great video.. as usual!!! I noticed a stand up tripod that you are filming with. Can you share the link pls?
You bet! I dropped the link below and we won’t buy anything else, if we can help it. We bought a GoPro brand once before and broke it really quick, being careful! So we bought 3 of these for less than what that cost. We did break one Ulanzi, but we were doing something really dumb! Haha! These are great!

I love when y’all try local foods and let us know about it. That’s all about travel. And Louisiana has really different foods.
Also I LOL’d at the chair repair. 🤣😂🤣
😁
When we had our house built, they drilled a well, and we didn’t know about water softeners until it ruined the keurig, dishwasher and the washing machine. Now I will not run any water through our new motorhome with without a softener first. Can’t imagine trying to replace the dishwasher and washing machine in that!! Products like this go a long way and there are not enough people are pointing this out. Thank you for your videos. They are informative and wonderful!
wow $150! I thought I was looking at $300. I wonder what makes them different
Thank you! We waited way too long for this. No more white stuff to try to scrip off the shower head or faucets and we’re using ALOT less soap in the shower, dishes etc. We love it!
There’s varying prices out there but they all really do the same thing. The price point of this model is really attractive and the results are amazing!
Noticed today that we were no longer subscribed. Weird. Resubscribed. Keep the great videos coming.😊
That’s odd! Thanks for coming back!
I have hit them several times before! 😬😬
I LIKE when you find neat food! 😊 .. your hair looks great!
Thanks! We like food a bit too much too! Lol
Hey ya! I loved the review on the softener! I saved the video so when the time comes I can refer back to it then purchase it. Charlie is so cute 🥰😃
Thanks! Charlie is a little curmudgeon! 😊
Fun video, thank you! We were always taught that "southern hospitality" was a bad thing. It meant they would take us northerners out behind the wood shed, as my grandfather would say. We were so nervous when we first started traveling in our 5th wheel that we avoided going south with our Wisconsin plates and Polish last name. But, as MarkTwain said, "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness." Most people everywhere are kind and helpful , as long as you show respect and kindness back
We were a bit stunned and laughed at this! My sis-in-law (Ang) from Wisconsin was genuinely surprised that we wore shoes in Arkansas. Although I didn’t wear them most of the time…I HAD shoes! 🤣 She also panicked over how many were waving at her from passing cars. 😁
Let’s be honest. We felt the same way when we moved to the Midwest, from Arkansas. You think people are SO different. Our cultures and way of life may be different, but ultimately it’s just a bunch of good people, just trying to figure out life.
LOVE that quote! It’s fantastic and 100% correct!
@@RVUntethered My dad would tell us stories of when he came back from the military in the 1960s and drove around to see the country, he said would use an alias because people would see his long Polish last name and suddenly not have rooms to rent or seats at a restaurant or whatever. Maybe that was true back then, or maybe he was just projecting his biases. But we have only encountered friendly nice people. Sometimes they question the amount of beer we drink and cheese we eat, but that's fair.
😆😆
Ahhhh... Charlie's soooo sweet! ❤ The girl dog wanted to play!
Eris ALWAYS wants to play! 😁 Playing is life! 😁
Hello sir， i am your channel follower and i watched your all Vlog. I really love them. But now, i decide to purchase a RV, can u tell me why u do not set a washing machine or dryer in your vehicle? Especially the machine which can combine both of the functions and the size is compact?
Hello! We do have the hookups for the washer and dryer, but we have decided not to add it to this RV, for two main reasons.
The main reason being cost, but the location of the hookups are terrible in this particular RV. The hookups are on the opposite sites of our closet, where you would have to empty part of it out and then step way into the closet to reach it. Even if you got the compact, it still poses the problem of location. We found that it would likely add stress to perform a normal task.
If we decide to upgrade rigs, it would be something that we would research.
Yes water softener works great. Live in southern Indiana purchased first softener in early 90s and never went without since😊
I suppose that’s when we learned about it first..Illinois. We were pretty ignorant on it.
Thanks for watching! 😊
We have had 4 Lippert Double chairs. Every single one has ripped across the back bottom seam. No , we are not huge people. So get a Kelty.
Kelty for sure, I've had mine for years with no issues.
Really?! I haven’t heard of this brand. I’ll check it out! Thanks!
Yes, very well built. Kelty loveseat has a low version and the standard height version. Mine has held up very well and my dog even enjoys resting on it by the fire. You can't go wrong with the Kelty loveseat.
Great video... and yes I'm hungry now
Thanks! Ha!
The chair repair is some true swamp ingenuity. Fyi, tapes gonna melt off and stick to your legs in the Florida heat.
Bahahaha! Maybe we should have put some eternabond on it! 😆
Going on 3 years with our tabletop Pit Boss......Still lovin it! Sounds like Charlie is practicing his Cajun too!!! 🙂I really like the gator nuggets while traveling down in NOLA a few years ago. Food is awesome in Louisiana, if we lived there, I would be EXTREMLY overweight!!!
WE have a softener that we use to fill our tank or in line while at a place with water hookup. it seems to work well filling our tank. I recharge or flush with the salt about 2-3 times a year (more than instructions say) ours is "on the go Brand" it works pretty good too, but ours cost about $50-$60 more than this one you have. (so I like the one you have better) 😁
Ha! Yes, these people know how to COOK!
That’s not too bad on the recharge. We thought we may end up having to do it more frequently than that.
@@RVUntethered with you guys being full-time, I'm sure you will need to recharge monthly or every other month. we camp 10-14 times per year mostly weekends and 1-2 week-two week trips.
Chez is pronounced "shay". 😉😊
😁Thank you!
Love y'all.
Awe thank you!
What camper do you have and what’s the weight? I’m trying to decide on gas or diesel. The rv I’m looking at is Brinkley Z3100 weight is 15k fully loaded wouldn’t want to load it fully though. Thanks for letting me ask this question. I really enjoy following you two, you have a lot of fun and truly enjoy each other carry on!
Our RV is around 15K fully loaded. We pull ours with a gas 7.3 F350 and it does a really good job.
There’s a lot of controversy over gas vs. diesel, but my only advice would be to pay close attention to your rear differential gear ratio, regardless of which one you go with. In my opinion, this is highly overlooked and makes a big difference.
We have a 3.73 which give us a good mix of torque and fuel economy.
I truly don’t think diesels are bad and may have to get one down the line, but IF you’re interested, I did talk a bit about he truck in this video. I go over maintenance, cost, fuel economy experience..etc.
ua-cam.com/video/4hAVZtNbU2Q/v-deo.htmlsi=KkXsqh1QndhTQOoQ
@@RVUntethered thanks for that video, I do remember watching it.
So it works and my question is what’s in the filter? Is it safe for drinking?
There’s no filter involved with the water softener. There’s a resin bed inside full of resin beads. Water flows through the beads making the water soft. Every few months, we’ll need to add table salt to the softener and back flush the system to regenerate the beads. I did some research before adding this on. The consensus is that the beads are good for about ten years and they’re non toxic and safe for drinking. Assuming the system is working properly, the beads never make it into the coach and they stay trapped in the resin bed.
Is it lead free? Some are not and shouldn’t be used for drinking water v
@@HomeOnWheels320MKSWell that’s a good question! I couldn’t imagine that they would still be able to make lead-based items like this! And they should have to tell you (no disclosures on our information).
I do know that the resin is premium food grade and the exterior appears to be a plastic of some sort. We did do the cheap test strips that show you other minerals in the water and none of them registered anything on lead. It’s not an extremely scientific experiment, but that’s what we saw.
What's your ratio of vinegar water dawm
Thanks
Bahahaha! I don’t measure anything!
I do more vinegar than anything’s. I used to use straight vinegar or lightly diluted to clean the faucet handles. Mostly vinegar, a little squirt of Dawn and top it off with water.
What truck do you guys have?
2022 F-350 SRW. 7.3 gasser, 3.73 differential and a ten speed transmission. Great truck! We bought it new and have just under 77,000 miles. She’s a beast but a thirsty beast! 😆
@@RVUntethered I was wondering because we like your trailer and I was wondering if you could safely pull with a Silverado 2500hd 6.6 gasser
My initial reaction is yes, but make sure that you check the manufacturer’s sticker (inside of door) to make sure you’re not overweight.
Airbags have helped with sagging too!
@@RVUntethered thank you
What ever happened to your train horns?
Haha oh geez! We had to get Cody out to work and to a place that would allow us to run a drill. Ha! It’s coming, promise! Maybe 3/9 or shortly after. 🙂
Thank you for replying to my comment. Enjoy your videos. 💕
Oh great! Now I am going to break out the pit boss and smoke some bacon! I will put some Louisiana hot sauce on it in the spirit of your video! God Bless y’all!
Ha! That’s some solidarity, my friend!
@@RVUntethered Indeed!
