Q: “How much detail do you want on our next tour video?”
A: An excruciating amount!
All the things!
I'd love to see a comparison of your Scamp to the standard Scamp fixtures, and why you made those choices.
I've been considering getting a Scamp and I was totally shocked the first time I saw photos of the inside of a 'standard' Scamp - they look sooooo different!
Not too much, but yes we want to see all the things LoL ♥️
heck yeah! full tour- drawers and all!
Complete details please!!!
New tour please! Idk why humans like seeing other peoples living spaces and how they store stuff, but man is it good entertainment!
Yes! Lol I agree!
Because we are all disorganized. Someone must have the answer.
As for skirting, you can use plastic tarps especially since they have multiple uses. You simply fold them to length to fit your needs.
Try resin on the body and underneath the floor.
🤣🤣🤣👍👍
could be random, but i just wanted to say how cute it was how often you both compliment each other. it's obvious you both are each other's biggest supporters.
every time i watch you guys i notice how much you really listen to each other when you're talking and it's so refreshing
we want to know everything i literally mean everything.....and there's no time limit.....make it 1 hour or 2 we're gonna watch it
Agreed
agreed
Agreed
Yes! But also please make sure to include plenty of lengthy footage of Barron’s beautiful eyes. I could definitely watch hours of THAT.
@@mnamous9823 LOL I just dropped in for the comments.
Would love a total geek out of what makes the list for keeping in the scamp.
Live in Colorado. Thornton to be exact. Lived downtown for a few years but also lived in Boston for a few years.
+
to be honest if I saw that yall posted an hour long scamp tour, I would gladly watch all of it!!
I love tours and how people utilize available storage.
Me too! Plus you learn more tips and tricks as you go, I’d love to see how things have changed.
No Elk?
Definitely want a video on an updated scamp!! Maybe a little in depth. I've been missing you guys! The Scamp looks great 😁
That stitch you used is very aptly called a blanket stitch. Good job.
She says I don't know a lot about sewing I just know the turn things inside out and how to make pleats and everything else I would say you know more than the average person
She knows how to hand sew & do pleats!
I have 2 sewing machines but I have my friend sew my stuff for me.
I do sew and yes, she did a marvelous job. The stitches look like the kind that would hold well, assuming she used strong enough thread. And, its pretty easy to do repairs if needed.
13:54 "I had no idea you had any experience with electrical anything."
Elsa, the man installed all of the wiring for your solar system. That stuff is an order of magnitude harder than putting in some taillights!
Yes! Scamp tour please 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you for watching till the end!!
@@ElsaRhae Always!
Why does this channel not have million subscribers!Why I say this is I literally watch all your videos multiple times!
Spread the word.
Because they haven’t created community appeal for a million people. The subset probably is smaller than a million anyway.
Elsa, I probably shouldn't tell you this but Plasti-dip comes in colors!
And it comes in a non-spray container as well because its original purpose was to dip tool handles to make them non-conductive and rust resistant. Hence “plasti” (plastic) “dip” (you dip your tool handles in the jar to coat them).
@@bryan314 I’ve been a PlastiDip appreciator for years . But I didn’t know it came in a spray can application ! Thanks !
omg!
New Tour!!!! All of it!!! DEEP!!! Especially the things that you wouldn't go without. And how you organize your belongings. Love you two!! Thanks for sharing your lives with us. You feel like family!!
The new and improved Ronco "Mattress Master" On sale soon at a store near you. Note also great for carving turkeys.
Ya loved this idea 😎👍
They suck for turkeys.... as soon as you trun it on it freeks the Turkey out and sarts to go crazy
I love watching your tours! I'd absolutely love to see a new one and especially a detailed one.
You're right on the money with the turkey knife. It's actually a tool we used in the foam factory I worked in. It's especially helpful tight spaces.
Hi Elsa and Barron! My husband and I really really enjoy all the tips that you share. We are planning to retire and do a lot of camping and would like to do some "Off Road" camping as well. We love all the tips you share they are really helpful and we are taking notes. But we just love how you enjoy making it real for the viewers, in sharing your fun times and not so fun times. We love watching Baron get into a mountain stream /creek or river and lay down in it as he counts the secs. he can stand it before getting out. We also love watching the times Elsa has tried to do the same. Good for you Elsa! We love when she bursts up and out of the water yelling while running back to the Scamp during your Winter camping. We love your recipes, as we are Vegetarian and can duplicate a lot of meals you prepare together and the ingredients you choose. My husband was a manager of a health food store and so he recognizes a lot of the products you use in your cooking. We also (like everyone else) love Camp and all his adventures. He's so loved and spoiled. We love when he's all wrapped up in your blankets like, "you guys might be getting up, but I want to stay in bed". Also when he plays & races around in it and plows through the snow. We loved the video from Camps point of view and the hilarious voice you used for him when he talked throughout the video. We have followed you as often as we can for about a year and a half now. So much continued success to you. And keep making the videos. It's our weekend treat to catch up with you and your adventures. We were surprised to learn that you are thinking about buying some land and perhaps building a home? Where? Around your parents location? Well I guess it will remain a mystery after all you don't want a lot of fans sitting on your porch camped out outside your door. When are you thinking of getting started with this? Then how often will you take Scamp on the road again once you have a land, wheel-less home. I'm sure you will tell us all more about this soon.
In the mean time it's a joy to keep up with you an your adventures. You guys are inspiring so may people of all ages. You guys "Rock" !
So great to see you both again! Was wondering how things were going and if you were all ok!!
I would watch a 2 hour movie of you guys so geek out to the max!
Elsa, for not knowing allot about Sewing, I think you did one Heck of an awesome job. I'm impressed because most young people have no idea how to sew at all. So you did a Wonderful job.
New tour!!! my wife and I live vicariously through you guys and always love new vids !
Almost half million sub's, I think you can talk about anything and they will come. Just keep doing what you're doing.
Geek it out..would love to see a tour of all storage spots.
Hi again you two. Just marc again. Is there no end too your talents? You two just amaze me. I'm so glad you are doing what you want. Life's too short not to enjoy. I really enjoy watching you. Keep up the great videos. Marc
Yes another tour.. And I Love to see the wonderful Colorado views and just all of it. I have been missing seeing you all I live in Kansas City, Missouri.. and wanting to visit Colorado soon.. COLORADO IS THE BEST PLACE EVER.. CAN NEVER GET ENOUGH.. THE SPOTS YOU ALL FIND ARE THE BEST..DO YOU OR HAVE YOU EVER BEEN BOTHERED BY POLICE OR PARK RANGERS OR GOT TOLD TO MOVE??? And you both did a great job on the Scamp it looks alot better. Don't leave us so long next time.. No but really keep the tours and events chomping our way if you are able...GOD BLESS AND HAVE FUN AND BE SAFE. LIVE EVERY DAY LIKE IT IS your last..
YES to a tour
YES to details
YES to every drawer
YES YES YES!!!!!!
Cant wait to see there undies?
Yes, a long and detailed tour. I am fascinated with the whole thing and thinking i would like to buy an older Scamp in future, if i can get one....Yes please.
Siete una famiglia meravigliosa, che sa apprezzare la vita all'aria aperta. Con la vostra roulotte, andare a fare i vostri viaggi dove volete. Tutto questo proviene dal vostro cuore e dall'anima che c'è in voi.Buonea Feste. Grazie mille ciao.
The way you come up with solutions that may or may not work long term, but is affordable enough to give it a try, is exactly what I do when it comes to turning my 2003 Honda CRV and 1999 Ford Ranger into a travel camper type vehicle. Wall insulation board IS wonderful for keep out the cold underfoot. I have used the 2 in. board with a 6 in. memory foam (both easy to contour to the sleeping area of both vehicles) attached (and covered with an old, huge, vinyl tablecloth since mine is only in when we are camping) because my husband cannot sleep if he cannot at least mostly sit up when in bed mode. The wooden platforms some people build are not great for insulation, and the board is lightweight (as you know). Anyway, I loved this video. It is very informative for those of us who may one day consider buying an older Scamp. My favorite part of all of the things you have done to the Scamp is the little furnace/fireplace. A new tour would be great, although I thought your earlier ones were good too. As for tires, I have never been disappointed with any all terrain (or the next thing to it) made by Cooper. I live in Northern Utah and while the small trucks I've owned do well on any Utah road, with the Cooper tires I've put on our CRV, not only do I gain a little more clearance, but they have performed very, very well. Safe and happy travels!
Please make a very detailed tour so we get to enjoy the max amount of time with you two and Kamp. It is such a balm to just to hear and see you.
Looks good! I think a 20ish-minute Scamp Tour featuring what you feel is most important for your lifestyle, would be perfect! Stay warm & safe!
Agreed that would be perfect!
Totally agree
I love the tours best....they inspire me to tidy up pare down reuse and SMILE!. Cooking videos are a close second and of course any footage of healthy happy Kamp us a joy. Thank you.
I think you both did Beautiful Work Together in this Precious Scamp. Its So Sweet😊❤
Thank you for helping people get through this pandemic you're our friends and help us escape to a nicer place. Love and good luck to you both xx
give me, all the tours. all the content. literally show me ur garbage can i will watch it all
Lmao
Hilarious!
🤣🤣
Wow good one alaska kiara !!! Baahaaaa
On everything 🤣🤣
Ha! Glad you think so & glad you both found your happy place. Freedom was where you were at. This part is what makes you happy and now you are tied. As much as you let yourself be. Welcome to the club.
I like watching tours that go into what tools/ equipment you use. It’s helpful to know what you would recommend/ what you have used in the past that didn’t work. 🙏
I’ve been missing y’all. The world is a better place with y’all in it and showing us how you live. Any videos are welcome. Sure I’d love to see another detailed inside look at your Scamp, daily routines including making coffee and cooking your meals. And of course enjoying Kamp run wild and free and playing in the snow. It’s your beautiful and peaceful chill personalities which makes these videos heartwarming to watch. Also I love your humor. So yes, keep the videos coming.
You might think we get tired of watching your daily life but for those of us who don’t have a Scamp but desperately want one but can’t afford it, I get to camp vicariously through y’all in beautiful Colorado, my favorite place; but other places as well.
This is my first post btw but I’ve been watching y’all’s videos for a long time now. Y’all are the best.
So glad to see you guys back in your element. The scamp looks amazing! Yes I want a tour of the scamp, including all the drawers.
I’ve learned so much watching makeover campers🙏🙏🙏❤️
Scamp looks GREAT!!! And the Thule box is the bomb!!! We loved ours!
Suggestion for scamp tires - switched my narrow tires for the 8 inch wide ones, much more stable and can carry double the load
So glad you're back on the scene in the new and renewed Scamp, how exciting. I love anything and everything you put out for us. I'll be there! Thank you, bless you.
I am a professional seamstress... Now you are too! that is one heck of a job for not knowing how to sew.
And yes....geek out on the Scamp tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Want a tour of the scamp, want to know what the solution for the drawer fiasco was!
I think you’re fine! Don’t worry about what “scamp purists” do, do what works for you financially, timewise , and pleases your sense of style. The Scamp looks amazing and i really like how you “upgraded”. Love the look of PlastiDip! 😄
I love these videos because they are so clean still which is important to me when outdoors
Take a bow. Well done.
Yes to a new tour.
Show all of hints, tricks bits & bobs.
Plasti stuff ! I’m gonna need to try that out.
🥰🥰🥰Kamp - part kangaroo , part earth angel.
A tour with all the details! You might need to do a series because I think you have a lot to show. Maybe a set of 30 minute videos? Love your videos and your lifestyle! Love from Oregon.
You two so fun to watch!! Sounds like “the scamp” needed that makeover!! Wish you two well and be safe🤟🏽
Yes! A new tour please!! geeking out about everything! I could watch you guys for hours
HECK YEAH SCAMP TOUR! Maybe a bit about what things you keep for travelling, what items work for multiple purposes, and how the new improvements will improve quality of life.
My youngest daughter and her family have set up shop in Colorado. They love it there, they are talking about retirement one day. On a couple of visits, I must say it is a beautiful place. Being from Delaware, my state is as flat as a pancake, and those mountains are just amazing.
You’re a lovely couple and your channel is great, been following you for a long time 👍
Love your videos...You guys are the cutest couple....love your gregarious, free spirits and your "can-do" attitude....You aren't spoiled rich brats who have to have the best....Your videos are just right length for the content...so I always enjoy looking to see what is coming next...Thanks...and you did a great job on the camper improvements....by doing the work yourself, you appreciate it so much more!!! Be safe!
YES A NEW TOUR, ALL THE DETAILS OF ALL AREAS OF THE SCAMP..I AM FEELING THE VIBE OF SCAMP LIFE..I TRAVEL AROUND IN MY 1999 ISUZU RODEO, NEVER PLANNED...NOW, IT IS MY LIFESTYLE, I WOULD LOVE TO GAIN MORE TIPS FROM YOU BOTH WITH WHAT I AM IN UNTIL I GO FULL TIME IN A SCAMP POSSIBLY...THANK YOU🤗🐶
Your tour tour! Geek out! I want to see organization and how you store things for daily living!
"Do you want to see what's in each draw?" Yes please! "Do we geek out on all the tools we actually have with us" Do!
Draw?
Elsa Rhae and Barron, you are a breath of fresh air and are accomplished on simple living. Where there's a will there's a way. Is your pet a dog or wolf, kind of looks like a wolf to me. So adorable.
I have a solution for your roof vent: Tin. I have a scuba trailer that we also use for camping, etc., and one of the first improvements we made to it was installing one of those crank vents. After a couple of years that white plastic broke down and fell apart. I went to Home Depot, bought a small role of the tin flashing that roofers use. I measured the vent size PLUS the amount of overhang I'd need, then cut out the square with tin snips, including extra "wrap around" length (about an inch) at each corner so that when I folded down the edges to create the lip I had a piece at each corner to wrap around to the adjacent lip. I drilled a hole at each corner where the adjacent sides overlapped and bound them together with zip ties (you could use small nuts & bolts or rivets). I drilled the additional holes needed to mount the existing hinge and the crank mechanism. Voila! It now is virtually impervious to weather! I can shoot you a picture if you're interested.
new tour, tools you have or you need the most, arrangement, food storage, long story short everything! stay safe guys! sending love all the way from philippines 🇵🇭❤️
Wow this is exciting! I am commenting even before I watch the magic 👍💗💗💗. I would love to see a 20 minute detailed video of your Scamp please.
We are almost finished updating our 1997 all-aluminum pull-behind trailer. We wanted a Scamp or Casita but couldn't find any used in our area. But ... still found a GREAT trailer that our Chevy Silverado can pull into and over the N America mountains. Planning to set ourselves free from home base next summer! Thanks for being inspirational. :-) (In our 60's, but never too late.)
Long live the Scamp! She looks beautiful
For a seasonal skirt, you might look into something flexible that could be rolled or folded up for storage. Just a length of canvas or other fabric (old tent?) You would need to work out a way to secure it (maybe snaps), but it would make a huge difference. Possibly even bubble wrap?
We always want another tour! Show us EVERYTHING!!!
Absolutely new tour and as detailed as possible every drawer cupboard storage box food all of it!!
Absolutely adore your family! The 3 of you are the sweetest
My 94’ 13 foot Scamp arrived yesterday! I would love to see an extended tour of yours!
Congratulations!
Kamp cried when he realized that with the renewal of the Scamp it didn't include a new bowl or toys!🤣
Hi , Scampers, Cap'n Rick here in the Port of Lewes, Delaware. Next time you get around to the frame rust problem , find a boat yard or Marine contractor that cleans and removes boat bottom paint. They will come in with their blaster that uses corn husk and baking soda and blow that rust off without hurting the metal, then you can quickly coat it with Rustolium . Nice update. My daughter got tired of paying $1,600 a month and bought a 2018 Pro Master City Tradesman and moved back in with us while her boatbuilder Dad tricked it out. Nice to hear you also have a handy Dad to help! Plus the only rent she pay;s is in Bourbon, beer and pizza's.
Yes yes yesssss please do a complete tour. I just love your videos. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.
Great Job! Your little house looks awesome.
Hi! So nice to see you guys! Happy Thanksgiving!
👍 to cutting and sewing !!!! Looks good from here !!!! Be safe, be healthy, be happy !!!!
You two are the best! Love your outlook on life. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Some day I will live free like you two. Best wishes to you both!
I’d love an extended tour of the scamp!!! I’d love a super detailed version!
Love you guys.
Got my 2015 13 foot Scamp about 1 1/2 months ago. It. Had. Never. Been. Washed. I considered the Zep, but the gel coat wasn't that oxidized, just really dirty & I needed to scrape off the lichen growing on the roof. I used Murphy's products & a LOT of elbow grease. I'm a 66 year young woman who got over her fear of going high on a stepladder. Love your videos! More, please! As much as you can give!
Hello from Texas I came across your videos and fell in love watching you guys. Watched 3 so far and plan on trying to get in more of them . It’s good to see young people live out in nature. Taking others along for the view. Love you fur baby too. Peace ✌️ ❤️ Love 😉🐕
Autozone sells plasti dip in a bunch of different colors...just saying 😊 seriously though I think you guys did an amazing job ❤️
Make it a series and show the different ways you organize each section of the scamp. keep up the amazing work and stay safe !!
GREAT IDEA...............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know if it's because I always watch you guys on my phone, but today I'm using my laptop and the quality is soooo clear! It honestly beautiful because nature truly pops!
Thx for sharing, definitely the wife and I have been car camping and we enjoy the tours because we get to see new ideas or just enjoy your ventures.
I rate your setup it's a bit of an inspiration :) 10/10 for plastidipee
Yes a new video!
That the blanket stitch you are amazing artist what ever you touch well done Elsa
Really enjoyed your vid, we don’t even have a scamp! But you both have such “SMARTS” we trust your clever instincts. We have made many project over the years and using rigid foam and have always used an electric carving knife! You mattress work was “divine inspiration” WELL DONE. TH@NK YOU FOR POSTING IT!
Fixing a boat is very similar. When you're buying Starboard look into 5200 or 4200 adheasive. Youll love it.
THAT SMALL CLIP OF THE DAD JUST GAVE ME THE MOST EASY WAY TO CUT A CIRCLE WITH MY DREMAL. thanks.
New tour yesss!!! Also you can use the plastic dip on the under of the scamp, to help “seal” it . It will also help make it last longer.
Hello. Just a tip about dealing with rust underneath trucks or trailers. You can use a steel brush to just get the loose stuff out, a brush to dust it off and what I recommend is you use Rust reformer. Rust reformer bonds to the rust and actually makes it really hard preventing the rust to spread, rust reformer is also paintable so after a few coats you can paint it with whatever you want. Just thought I’d say this just in case.
17:36 Those "crank screws" are called turnbuckles 😁 (very handy in situations like that)
Looks really great!
Ahh, geez, you guys are great! Continue to live your peace!
Hi Elsa & Barron, I have been following you almost three years!! Thank you for all the wonderful info and countless tips. This old Inuk has been planning a similar life here in Canada. So YES... details on the inside and more of your amazing food recipes plz, you are a inspiration to many 🌌
