  • Exploring the Barker Dam in Joshua Tree, California. Usually it's filled with water but this year, it's empty and I'm too curious not to go inside the dam. Join me and my parents for ham sandwiches and a mild hike to the dam.

    Hi Allison, what a beautiful video. So glad your parents are traveling on this adventure with you. You have a new glow about you, keep smiling. Thanks for taking me along on this trip.

    Look at your cute little parents 🥰 Allison you’re a combo of both your parents. I always look to see who the kids look like lol. That is one cool park ! I watched a vlog of a Bigfoot encounter at that particular park! I don’t think they were making it up. Just a fun fact for you 😆 Great vlog !! 💜😎

    Allison, This was such a beautiful & heart touching video. Your Mom & Dad are the sweetest. I remember the funny & some not so funny ups & downs you guys had building the van out. I love the relationship you have with your family. It is precious. Well on the road again…. Know you are always in my prayers.

    Hello beautiful family. 1st time viewer and I had to pause your video and cry as your mom handed you and your dad a sandwich. Even though I am 60 years old, I have been an orphan my whole life and never knew the love or care of a mom or dad. One of my social workers once asked me, "Do you ever miss not having a mom or dad?" My answer? "I don't miss it because I never had it to begin with." This video of yours suddenly, after a whole lifetime, made me realize... I think I really do miss that. Thank you for your sensitive and honest willingness to share your appreciation for your loving mom who can make a really good sandwich and a dad who is clearly thankful for her too. Thank you to all three of you and Merry Christmas. I will now subscribe to your channel. ❤❤❤ Please share my words with your parents and let them know that their love has reached many in ways that, at least for me, never felt before.
