and use my code "JUICEBOX" at checkout for $50 off your order! Thanks for your support! This is just a sweet family moment from our 25,000 mile 2 year trip around the US from 2020 to 2022. We drove up a moment to sleep for the night just East of Santa Barbara, CA and it was a big mistake. Our 40 foot Gillig Phantom School Bus Conversion barely fit on the road and you can't quite feel it in the video but the incline was extreme. However this video has an unexpected hero: our daughter Nova. Watch the video and maybe you'll see what I mean. - Justin

"are you sure about me?" - now I'm in tears. Such a beautiful family, what an incredible adventure.
Someone is cutting onions somewhere...must be nova!! Nova is the wisest little girl such a sweetheart 💛
Thanks Alyssa. I just love that line. After all of her encouraging she just needed a little bit of it from me too.
🥺❤️ she's so precious!
Adorable. 🥰
Won't lie, i teared up a bit. She's too cute.
This was the purest thing ever. More baby Nova videos with her wise words of wisdom please!!
Hehe I thought you might like this one
OMG...How sweet! The bond between a little girl and her father is wonderful. Mine is 23 now and she still is the same Thank God. I guess we're doing something right in this world. Cheers!
Yeah you're right. It's a beautiful thing.
I'll try not to take it for granted!
It’s something about your own kids cheering you on that is the best feeling in the world! Well done sir💪🏾
You're absolutely right. Best feeling.
Ooff! That was one gnarly curve! Nothing like the soothing words of encouragement from your beautiful daughter to get you thru it. Nice skills Justin!
Aw thank you. In person it was super steep too. I really do feel comfortable driving that bus now though. I've been through a lot with it.
I think about your driving skills every time I drive that road! ❤
Nova had me in tears super cute super kind an thoughtful ...you did it yay congratulations proud of you ...Nova is so adorable ...such a special family ..so wholesome beautiful thanku so much for sharing much love and God bless always x
Awww, Nova is so sweet!
What an awesome video n audio…….. grateful to follow your building experiences
Aww thank you glad you liked it
Oh my gosh that is so sweet 🥰
Nova is amazing!
Way to navigate that 40 footer!! Although, I believe the only real reason you made it down is because of Nova's cheering you on. I'm pretty sure you'd still be stuck up there if it weren't for her.
Nova definitely helped me down. It was actually way sketchier than it looked. Never should have gone up there!
😮that was scary. Love, love, love your precious Nova.
NOVA IS THE SWEETEST!
That's insane!! I hope whatever you drove up there for was worth the hairy drive down!!
Nova’s little voice 😭
U sure about that ? 😉 Cute family...have fun 🥳
Thank you ☺️
I grew up in the San Bernardino mountains and our school had there own bus fleet of mostly 10 speed from the 60s I like to call Twinkie buses (because they look like giant Twinkies lol) anyway this gave me a whole new respect for those drivers that had to drive us at least 45 minutes to then from school on roads like this even in the snow with chains! The stress of driving a bus load of kids along a cliff even on a good day must have been sooo draining! Good job driving that! Also just wondering but you have an exhaust brake (jake brake) on that bus, correct?
Awww
damn, you're living the dream guy
We had a wild ride
When were you in Santa Barbara? I keep my skoolie up in those mtns all the time. I feel like I've seen your bus around somewhere on the road.
We were there for just a handful of days in the fall of 2020.
Right?!
💕👌👍
Awww🥹
Where was this?
Somewhere off 154 right outside of Santa Barbara CA
When you have a bus problem, you have a big problem. Careful where you put that.
You aint wrong
