✅ Who We Are
We’re the RV Odd Couple. We sold our house and most of all our possessions to live in an RV, pursuing freedom, independence and adventure. We documented the process to transition into full-time RV living with our family and experienced the RV travel mistakes. This channel provides valuable trailer travel tips and tricks, RV life basics, and motorhome beginners tips. We upload fifth wheel RV vlog adventures as we travel the country! If you’re into traveling vlogs, RV country traveling, or want to start full time RV living on the right foot, join on the adventure of our lives.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our journey❤️ Our job now is maximum service to God and those around us🙏
Is this a “Goodbye” to the RV Odd Couple subscribers?
@@brucestorey917 No... just the next season in the ongoing journey
Glad to see you two are still doing well. I am curious about John's older children. How are things in their lives and do they visit you guys ? Or is that not a proper subject ?
Thank you for sharing the ups and downs, and being brutally honest. Also thank you for sharing your story. What an accomplishment to be sober for so long, keep fighting the good fight “together.” I had a family member loose that fight while I was a kid. So understand that the fight is never over. You got this.
Cool.
Huge respect for two people who can share such raw information about their lives like this. Probably one of the most honest channels on YT.
Thank you John❤️
My grandson has Autism Spectrum Disorder. You discussing your daughter brought tears to my eyes but they are tears of JOY......thank you and God Bless.
I know how hard sobriety can be, I had black outs nightly and lost everything except my job. My personal Manager picked me up from jail and drove me 4 hours to a VA hospital rehab in Pittsburg PA. He was My Guardian Angel he knew this was not who I was and by the grace of God tried to save me. I have been strait and sobor for more than 30 years now and getting close to retire. My Wife and I have been planning for a couple years now to sell our home and live the RV boondocking life. We aren't new to camping at all and love it. We are looking forward to our Journy and thanks to people like you, I feel confident our journey will be great. I am great at fixing things and have completely remodeled our home, increasing its value by more than 100 grand. I will install a solar system myself in the Class A that will make us 100% self-sufficient and never need to plug in. Thank you for sharing a small part of your life with us all. God Bless.
I feel ya, BroMan. I quit a little over a year ago and I, like you, can't drink just one. "Quitting drinking is easy. I've done it a thousand times." 😎
Wow, as someone that celebrates 21 years clean and sober this September, this post really means a lot to me. We have loved and watched you guys for almost 3 years of your journey . Due to my continuing health issues we are putting up our RV for sale and moving back into the sticks and bricks. We will continue to be a part of the odd family and you three will always be in our prayer. God Bless
We had a felling Alan ❤️❤️❤️ God is good
Your story is both heart breaking and heart warming at the same time. You two are amazing people and I will be meeting you soon for sure.
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
And the third piece….. then he remembers, I can’t get a smile of my face, thank you,I just love moments like that.😊
I started watching you at 3,000 subscribers. You guys when from 100 % awkward in from of the camera to dominate the camera and you tube like pros. Congratulations.
Thank you Rafa❤️
Your testimonies so touched my heart! Our church has a meeting called “Celebrate Recovery”. Alcohol had been an on and off problem for me. I’m 71 and thanking God it’s lost its appeal. My hubby and I have an RV that has become a nightmare. $30,000 in repairs the past 9 years. We moved from CA to SW Missouri 9 years ago. The weather and humidity wrecks havoc on our RV. 2005 Itasca Sunova Class A 34’ RV with 3 slides. The floor plan is awesome. We’ve had her 19 years. At 71 years old, and the weather here, it’s getting to be not worth having it. Money pit. It’s on its 3rd roof. Winnebago originally had a poor design for the roof. Held on by “clips”! The winds in the mid west tore the roof off to the point where the bathroom ceiling fan was hanging over the side of the RV! Thank you for sharing! Jesus is Lord!
I watch a lot of UA-cam and you guys are by far some of the most interesting and unique folks out there. Thanks for sharing your stories with us.
Thank you 😊
I stumbled upon your videos this week...I am disappointed I wasn't with you during your journey, but I will certainly admire your past adventures.
You guys are awesome.
I've said it before and I'll say it again! You both are such an inspiration! This video is the exact reason why you have such a Huge following! Your honesty, integrity and pure transparency oozes from every fiber of your being! And it's refreshing to see and hear! You have earned a "life long" follower in "me" and I'm sure many others agree! I hope one day to get to Thunder Canyon and meet in person! Until that day, keep up the amazing work! God Bless 😊
Looking forward to meeting you ❤️🙏
We're in our 70's, retired, and likely won't try the RV lifestyle, but your message is strong and powerful. Consider me subscribed!
Smart! We are 71 and enjoyed our class A rv for 10 years when we lived in CA. CA you can pretty much use your rv year round. 9 years ago we moved to southwest Missouri and that was pretty much the near end of rv’ing. $30,000 In repairs. Plus you can only use them MAYBE 6 months out of the year. A lot of upkeep and about $1,000 a year for insurance.
I'm impressed with you both! The world needs to hear true struggles with honesty and in love. I admire your courage, openness & willingness to admit mistakes.
Thank you Andrea🙏❤️
This video just came across in my algorithm. I'd like to say, Thank you for your honesty and courage to be this honest and for sharing your life and your story. I would like to wish your family all of the best that life has to offer.
Loved the video and you guys honestly. Life is a journey, full of bumps, full of highs, full of lows, full of opportunities for us all to make it a life worth living. God bless you all.
God Bless you as well Pat❤️❤️❤️ We miss you and Katrina horrible
❤️
I agree with you. But sometimes these guys give me TMI just like my next door neighbors sometime do.
Wow! Thanks so much for opening up and being honest about your lives. The best to you and sweet Sage moving forward as a family.
We lead AR meetings. The participants are some of the most strong and amazing people I know. You two inspire others by sharing your struggle and journey. Thank you! 🤗🤗
This is why I continue to choose the RV Odd Squad. Y'all are real, transparent, whether in service to God or toward others.
The Lord takes us through seasons (Ecc 3), with His purpose for us, in His wisdom and plan. The more we let go of our plans and simply say; "God, what would you have us do?", the more we grow, that is, our heart longing more for what He wants for us rather than what we want for ourselves. This is where y'all are at & it shows.
Grateful to have you with us David❤️ God Bless you as well 🙏
Thank you…for being so brave and honest.
You are an inspiration to all of us who have had really hard times and pulled out of it.
Watching you two makes me smile at how good you two are for each other.
Thanks for sharing your perspective. Good luck with your adventure. We are continuing our full time RV adventure, one day at a time.. We love it. Fear is a prison.
🙏
Hello J & M. Im not often moved. I’m very moved by your video. You are both so honest and courageous. Your inspirational. At some point I hope to have the privilege of meeting your family,
We’d love to give you a hug Gary 🙏❤️
I absolutely love you guys....you are both so real, so honest and so raw which is sooo rare today!!! I am not an rv'r but watch and learn from you guys often!!!
I just want to say I think you guys are doing the smart and right thing for times we are in right now. Sending you all the love and support!
Thank you Darrell
You two… the honesty and transparency make this so refreshing to watch and identify with on many many levels. Thanks for that truly…we will drop in to TC one day and give some big hugs. Much love and blessings.
I don't have any interest in RV'ing full time but somehow I clicked on your channel a few years ago. The first video was the one where you guys were breaking down all the costs of RVing. Great job with these videos. I've been sober for just about 7 years and it was after 6 detoxes and two 30 day rehabs. God bless you two and your recovery.
My kind of Guy Kevin!!! 🤪
I'm in the "club" as well, stopped drinking in 1988! Great video guys!
Love to meet yall
What's crazy is I have no interest in the RV life for myself, yet I have watched and loved you guys for quite a while now. Though I find the content interesting, I keep coming back because of the 3 of you. I also feel a bit of fellowship by watching. With that said, whether you are in an RV or not, I'll be watching. I imagine many others here feel the same way.
About 35% of the RV Odd Squad doesn’t RV. We will have rental RV’s and hope you can come visit. Thank you for your support ❤️❤️❤️
I agree Kim. I too have been an Armchair Rver
@@RVOddCouple what are you planning as far as renting RVs?
We RVed for 1.5 years. The lifestyle had so many positives. We met so many amazing people along the way. Zero regrets. Ended up putting roots back down where we started. BTW - we did a video on 9 things we dislike about RVing to share exactly what you are in this video. Love how real you two are!
I'd be interested to know which videos/channels inspired you the most early on. Congratulations guys!!! I'm glad you found your way.
Thank you so much for opening up and letting me get to know you both!
I'm impressed with what I have seen so far regarding Thunder Canyon Campground!
Love you guys! We were set to go full time but saw the shortages(tires, plastics, metal, chips, diesel, def, etc) plus long wait times for repairs and insane price increases on fuel, etc JUST IN TIME. We bought a little country home on a little bit of land. Eventually I'd love a class B for trips. We're really enjoying our new life.
My husband and I are making the transition. We are downsizing from a 3300 square foot home to a class a motor home. I am a public school teacher and he is a towboat captain. We can’t up and leave to full time RV, but we are looking forward to making that a future goal. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your journey. We watch a ton of UA-cam videos of full time RV families to get our head wrapped around what we are about to set our new sights on. Bless you for being the awesome parents that you are to Sage. I was drawn to you because of your viewpoints and experience in the RV world. I NEVER comment on people’s UA-cam channels. I subscribe if I believe you have something to offer to this world. Y’all have experience and you seem to be genuine and real. With that said, and with my faith in God as you have, I think it is important to say that public education is not ALL that bad. There are districts that are better than others and it is important that you find a district that is compatible with what your child’s needs may be. Yes, I am full aware of some of the things that public school systems lack. But please know…there are amazing teachers out there, working every single day in the public school system, spending way more time with their students than they get to spend with their own children. As a public school teacher, I give so much of my family and personal time working on lessons and contemplating what I can do to help a child. Work doesn’t stop at work. I bring my job home with me every single day. I pray for you and Sage. I pray for her and you to be in the greatest environment that is conducive to helping you and her be the best that you can be, the happiest. I would love to meet you someday. Your genuineness is refreshing and contagious. I just wouldn’t be a good school teacher if I didn’t share what life is like in our community as you share what life is like in your community as well. God bless you and your family. I am so happy that this endeavor you have been placed in is bringing joy and happiness to you, and that you are sharing that joy with others to help build this community of faith, family, and friends working towards a common mission.
Thank you for your honesty. People are so hungry for that now. Our country has a deficit of it. You are a wonderful example of real people. We all have brokenness. Thank you for allowing God to use you guys for His good. I’m glad you guys have decided to stay put for a bit. You’re in my prayers.
Thank you Shell 🙏❤️
Love your thoughts!
Your honesty and integrity are an inspiration to me. Your story will hopefully inspire others who struggle with life’s challenges!
@Hello handsome how are you doing?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Moving forward , I'm 72 years old and I just purchased my first RV 2 weeks ago and will be picking it up any day now between
6-2-22 --- 6-8-22 I have also watched hours and hours of RV videos per week for the past five years and fell in love with it all and you guys in the past 2 months ,
I purchased a pretty clean 1995 -
32' Damon escaper 5th wheel with rear kitchen middle living room with one large slide that covers couch and dining area, I show my sister the RV section in the store name and off every single thing and she said boy you must have really studied it a lot and she's right I told her all from videos. ❤️😂
John is such a volatile person, diving into his passion no holding back. Mercedes is his anchor because she’s a check & balance type. I hope you two continue to fall in love with each other and with life again and again. Your story is one for the books :)
Aw nicely said
Thank you so much for this Jen❤️❤️❤️ I’m the luckiest man on earth to have Mercedes.
True. John is volatile and obsessive. But that type of person tends to be extremely productive and they get the work done with no excuses.
I'd prefer _passionate_ to volatile. That aside, you're absolutely correct. Theirs is a truly inspiring story.
There's a *Wow!* and a *How?* in every relationship. John is definitely the *Wow!* And Mercedes is the best kind of *How?* Grounding. Supportive. Not critical or disrespectful (The relational fatal mistake too many make. See _Love & Respect_ for evidence of respect as man's greatest need.)
@@RVOddCouple Yes, you are!
I have been with you along time..We sold our trailer this year because I saw the writing on the wall before it hit ..I will keep watching you two until you decide to stop ...I pray for your family everyday...I hope to meet you in the future...
Your level of faith and praying together inspires me. You allowed the Lord to lead you and strengthen you in your journey not only with each other but in your travel.
Amen 🙏❤️
Its so huge and brave that the two of you shared your story im also in recovery however mine wasnt the drink. My kids are grown um divorsed and have down sized and im full time luving in my 24 ft pull behind again thanks for sharing your story ❤
Thanks for sharing!🙏❤️
You guys warm my heart! I can feel God's love through you both. It really is inspiring watching you grow in faith (which is what our family is trying to do, too!)
Thank you Heather 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
John you and me are like minded two of a kind, my wife keeps reminding me God has provide and will continue and no argument I come up with works so all I can say is Your Right Dear...lol
Yes Dear 😀👍
I must say you guys probably have done more for the average RVer than any other channel that i have checked out. Your channel is the only one I am subscribed to. You've done the insurance thing, you do the RV classes and now planning to do the training center. Keep on doing what you do and you and Mercedes will go down in history as the one of the best things that happened to RVing since the 5th wheel.
Thank you Bruce ❤️❤️❤️
I had not heard your story until today. I appreciate your honesty. Wish you both continued success with your journey and mission. Picking up my new (second) RV next week and though anxious about where things are heading, I will step out in faith that it is the right thing to do. God Bless.
I enjoy watching the two of you, and I'm sure your future videos will be just as enjoyable. I appreciate your transparency and willingness to share in life's struggles. We all have them! Keep on keeping on, and I'll stay tuned!
Thank you ❤️🇺🇸
I am so glad that Sage is better. I was worried and scared and didn’t know what I would do or what services were available for her. It is such good news.
Wishing you much success in all of your efforts.
Your journey has been incredible and you are such loving parents! Sage is such a gifted girl and the love and time you give her has had such an important impact that you will never know. Keep supporting your vision guys.... it is God's will and the chickens are appreciative! 💙
Love you and can’t wait for you to see Thunder Canyon Camp Gratitude Randi🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing an honest insight into your life, I really enjoy watching your videos!
This video brought tears to my eyes. You are exactly where you two are supposed to be. Now is the time to hunker down and get through what we are about to experience. The high diesel fuel prices, food shortages, and this crappy government make it important to have some place to call home.
Thank you for your support Carolyn 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏 Grateful to have you along for the adventure
Thank God you are not quitting the channel. I love watching your videos, they bring me hope, hope that we will be able to travel with our grandson/son who is in the spectrum, (we adopted him he brings so much joy and love and challenges).
God bless you Jeanette. We currently have another grandmother who has her grandson on the spectrum her at Thunder Canyon Camp Gratitude. we’ve had so much fun with them.
Hope you can make it here one day
Outstanding and inspirational couple. Love you guys. My plan was to be a part of the thunder canyon family this year, but life deals different cards some times. Back on track soon and will make it happen later this year. Bless your family and all who are close to you.
Bless you as well ❤️🙏
Me too, gotta trust that I’ll get there eventually also
@@cathysupp9493 Hello
@@RVOddCouple Hello
Absolutely start canning and garden preparation for the future
Good to be prepared
With inflation and food shortages please start canning everything you can and get the garden in xoxo
After 4 years of saving, building up my credit and endless research I finally pulled the trigger and bought a 2020 class C a few days ago. I plan to set out full timing on my own. I have 1 month to sell almost all my stuff and bounce out of my house for 20+ years in North GA. The excitement for doing this left as soon as I bought the RV. I suddenly became nervous, apprehensive and worried I did the right thing. Now one of my favorite RV channels (you guys) says I picked the worst time to do this. Thanks John! lol
Seriously though I've learned a lot from you guys over the years, and yes, I do feel like I know you both. I wish you all the best in this new adventure.
Congratulations Ronny 😀 Hope you have Thunder Canyon on your itinerary
We homeschooled more than 25 years ago. My husband bought a used rv. Every long weekend we took off. The world was our playground. We schooled in the rv. It was fun.
Thanks for your stories about your recovery, guys, it's great to hear your achievements. I'm an addictions nurse based in a detox unit in Liverpool, England. I've heard your story so many times over the last ten years, unfortunately, I haven't heard many successful recoveries in that time. 😔
I'm new to your channel, I love your frankness and honesty. I've got a Ford campervan and love to watch your adventures.
You 2 are a breath of fresh air. So open, intelligent, honest and kind. It's a pleasure to watch your videos.
I love your courage to be so open about your difficult days. I also love that you landed at Sand Mountain, Alabama, in my opinion the most special place on earth. It is where my dad was born and raised, where my grandparents lived and where I always found peace, stability, unconditional love and had some of the most special days in my life. I had been watching y'all for a few years and wondered if you would ever come to Alabama. WOW, did you ever! I'm so happy and excited for you and gotta admit, I really love your little family, especially beautiful Sage!
How cool is this Sharon 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏 Looking forward to seeing what we’ve done in this beautiful place.
Lots of Love ❤️😍 been watching your channel a few years now! Prayers for health, family, friends, success & many blessings 🙏
God bless you as well Nina🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
Thank you for bearing your souls. It is an inspiration! Also, thank you for all your the efforts you both have put forth and the legacy you are leaving
Thank you Ken❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your honesty of your past. We all have issues that are not what we want to share, but you have and God has blessed you because of your honesty. I have cried, laughed, and said hallelujah watching your videos. You have touched a lot of people, and God is happy because of your love
Keep coming back, it works if you work it! what a story
❤️❤️❤️
And you're worth it.
Thank you so much what you have learned, shared, and taught. 😍😍
We love to help when we can 🙏❤️
We sold our RV and have come off the road. Even though we weren't full time I am very glad ,given these times we did. Still stay on youtube ,and let us know the progress of Thunder Canyon. If you build cabins I would like to bring my wife and I to visit.
We’d love to have y’all Wayne 🙏❤️
I just stumbled across your channel last week. I can say the 1st vid I watched I was like wow these two come across as truly genuine. I appreciate the posting of the whole picture and not just the pretty side. I love your story and I wish both of you nothing but the best. Plus a congrads on your sobriety!! keep up the great work.
You guys are doing the right thing! This year we have had to cut back on many of our travel plans because of the current situation in our country (trying to find a safe way to word this). I have an idea for Thunder Canyon, are you guys planting a veggie garden of any kind? You could make it like a community camping garden. Whoever camps there can help take care of it and also eat from it. Many communities are actually considering doing that this year because of what is going on. You could do the same thing. Pick things easy to grow there and that don't require tons of extra work. And grow lots of that. Any food will probably come in handy as things progress this summer. Stay safe! We are praying for you guys!!!!!
This is a great idea Cheri and yes we are doing it ❤️ Thank you for the Prayers and God Bless you as well 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
God richly bless you guys! I love how real you both are in your videos! What a blessing you have been to us!
We are certainly blessed❤️
Dax and I love Thunder Canyon! Everyone has been very friendly and helpful. We really look forward to camping here again.
We would love to meet your chickens!
We love having you Nana❤️ Come on by and meet them.
Many need to hear your stories! Thank for sharing, how God heals all wombs. We live close to Thunder Canyon and will be visiting you guys this year. We wish you both the best!
Looking forward to meeting y’all Rodney 🙏❤️
I have watched your adventures for over 2 years, and I was not aware of your addiction until watching this. I am impressed with how well you have so far worked together to follow your dreams as well as how open you are. I was lucky that I didn’t catch the addiction my father had, but having witnessed what it did to him, I am so impressed with you two. God bless you and may you continue to succeed in your life going forward.
God bless you as well 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
I am so proud of you both... 26 years here... Quit drinking and Smoking 3 packs Marlboro Reds a day.. Yikes.:( I was nuts...! It gets better but have lost a lot of friends...
Mercedes, John, Sage, and yes, chickens too - you are all so refreshingly honest, you are very much appreciated, thank you for such a great video! Agree with what you are doing and your reasons for doing it, you make me feel that there is hope for the world yet! Can't wait to join you at Thunder Canyon. Right now with the price of diesel and the fact that our motorhome is showing symptoms of a DEF head failure with little prospects for a fix anytime soon, it may be a while, but we definitely want to meet you, God Bless you all!
Hang in there Wes! We look forward to meeting you as well ❤️
It was a tough winter for me and I spent a lot of it bingeing your content. Thank you for sharing your voices; your strengths and your struggles. Let your Patriotism and love of God continue to shine. You are a blessing to more than you even realize. Love you guys.
We love you Amy and hope to meet you one day🙏❤️
Godspeed in your endeavors! Love to you both. Been watching since the beginning & l know you are doing the right thing by hunkering down! My hubby and l are doing the same. 🙏
Thank you Jessica❤️❤️❤️
Y'all are awesome! I happened upon your videos and started watching your journey within your first few months - living my dream through you! I watched the RV Odd Squad first meeting at the pool and was really wishing I could have been there. Having zero experience in this industry but containing an excited heart full of hope, I very much hope to join you all at Thunder Canyon. Keep being REAL! That's what we appreciate.
@Hello handsome how are you doing?
I've followed you guys from the beginning but it was nice to hear the whole story.. best wishes for this next season of life..thank you for sharing
🙏❤️
WOW! You guys thank you so much for sharing this. I admire your candor and honest. I'm so very happy you stuck it out and survived it together. YES!!!
John & Mercedes...Thank you so much for sharing your heart and soul with us! What you shared about beginning to pray together daily/often God has used to really convict me that I have dropped the ball on that as godly husbands should be leading spiritually. Thank you!!!
Debbie and I are 13 years apart, and we and our total of 5 children survived blending a family 18 years ago. They have been launched into adulthood, , and the sale of our house here in Colorado is closing next week, and we begin our FT RV journey, and hope God allows us to come to Thunder Canyon and get to know you three (and your chickens!) someday! BIG blessings to you, and we will pray that you continue to follow where He leads you. He has promised to lead us "...with His eye upon us"
God Bless y’all and we hope to meet you❤️🙏
You do what is best for you and your family. I am not starting yet to RV , because of the things you feel, or what I think you feel. I believe we are both of the like minded people. So I will hopefully see you in the future. I want to study a little more and make sure I have all the things I need to make my life RV ING. God bless.
First! 😎🤓 I really admire you both. Very happy happy for you guys! What a blessing! 🥰
This testimony is your victory glad you shared it. It saves. Remember 3-4 years from now look back relook at this video because there are times going to come you will need to be reminded where the Lord brought you from. I been watching you both for at least 3 years and I enjoyed it. I haven't purchased a RV yet however I know the do's and don't because of your video sharing. 🥰
Thank you Annie 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
It’s really great to hear your story not many people are open about recovery and there’s no shame in recovery. It’s not easy to achieve her once there It’s so much better life even on a bad day
Thank you
Wow you really opened up to the whole wide world about your private life . I am so happy for you both , that things have turned around fir the better , with the alcohol.. my step das was a dry alcoholic and fell back bad , i saw what can be happening . Be blessed and doing what is best for you ! My love to all of you
You should start a series on you tube about thunder canyon campground, where you film your daily life as hosts and film interesting people who are traveling etc etc. I’d watch it. 30 min show season1. Best of luck on your new adventures. You guys have a lot of great inspirational advice, keep sharing. Thanks
Interesting idea 😀👍
Thank you for sharing your brokenness. You shine a beautiful light on our Loving Heavenly Father! He loves His broken children. And, yes, we are all broken.
Your videos have been a blessing to us as we started our part-time RV life. Praying for your continued success.
Thank you Jerrilynn🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
I have to admit I was worried about John after last weeks video... Ramped up the prayers!! I pray for you three... each and every day. Also praying that I will be able to visit one day!! You are doing a great job... give yourselves a lot of credit... if only just for listening to God in addition to doing all things right.
Hopefully last week was the bottom of exhaustion🤪
I found you 2 when I bought my Outdoors RV TT the same week I retired in 2018. As I grew to know you, I loved you more and more. Your story and what happiness and togetherness you bring us like minded people is amazing. Thank you for being you!! You won’t visit me 8 months out of the year here in rural Montana lol (gtfo’d Hellifornia). But, almost an entire state with like minded people! If u visit, I don’t know how to raise chickens or farm/garden, but one helluva security guard 😂 (legally can carry across state lines lol).
Loved this video!!! You're honesty about your selves and about Rving. I would love to visit thunder canyon someday for a few days. Take care
Hope you can come one day Karen❤️
You are so real! I can't wait to be on the road and able to be more involved! I've learned so much from you.
We love helping Tina🙏❤️
We love your vision and can not wait to come stay later this year. Keep doing God's work! We are so thankful to be a part of the RV Odd Squad.
Love having you with us Dan ❤️
Thanks for sharing your story. I have much respect for your lady for weathering the storm.
You all just keep posting!! We love you just the way you are and doing whatever your doing!!!
Thank you Tina❤️❤️❤️
You’ve got all the right priorities. Thanks for sharing.
God definitely has a plan for all of us and to hear your testimony about the blessings God has given you guys is very inspirational. I admire your honesty and sharing your story. This was one of my favorite videos you have done so far!! I'm a forever fan...
Thank you for the love, support and Prayers Lori🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
@Hello handsome how are you doing?
You guys have a ton of wisdom and spiritual foreknowledge! Keep it flowing! God will protect you so don't be afraid to speak out and stand strong!!!
So proud of both you guys! I had never heard your backstory before and it makes me so proud that you have chosen this path for your life. I was married to someone who couldn't quite get to the "this is the last time" road. It's a hard path I am sure. I love watching you regardless if you are out traveling or stationary. I was visiting my sister who owns the house I grew up in today. I turned down one of the roads and someone had a sign in their yard, Baby Chicks! I actually thought of you guys! Prayers and hugs!
Thank you for the Prayers and Hugs Mary🙏❤️ Hugs back❤️❤️❤️
Very uplifting and positive video. I just love your attitudes. Good Bless you both.
Love this video and the honesty that you touched on. So glad that the channel will REMAIN!!! Love you guys!!
We were just talking about you 2❤️🙏
Any chance you can come for the first week of July ?🙏🙏🙏
Y'all rock! There's a reason why I've stayed subscribed... That you for the full backstory!! Do exactly what you do...love, hugs and peace... 💕🤗✌️
Love Hugs Peace 🙏❤️🇺🇸
You guys are my favorite RV`ers. You are brutally honest and tell things like they are. I have one question. Please don`t answer if you don`t want to. I never heard what business you guys had going. Peace to all! Cluck cluck.
