Excellent video as always. Bob, I mentioned before that I'd love a video on certain weather related dangers such as flash floods, high winds, etc. I know they're not predictable but I believe monsoons and other systems are prevalent in certain months/seasons. Also, some education on identifying dangerous land features such as washes, etc.. You are such a good teacher Bob. I've learned so much from your videos and appreciate your message regarding the rat race. It's so true!
Hi Bob & all on the channel. I purchased my van truck 2 years ago to go nomad soon. My van is named after Bob Wells cheap r v living!! My vans name is Bobby Socks!! Thank you for valued classes, inspiration. Your partner Susan? Inspirational also. Next l am getting my travel companion !
I’ve been doing this going to warmer climates in winter. I thought LA area would be a lot warmer than it was this winter. Low 60s was ok but I wasn’t in a car but in hotels still.
I am so jealous of you, Caravan Carolyn, Carolyn's RV Life, and so many others. I was forced into retirement at 58 1/2 by my employer. My wife and I decided to sell our house and we bought a new truck and 5th wheel and we did live mostly in it for about 5 years. We had no idea your type of living existed. Health issues ended our adventure and now at 80 it's totally out of the question and mainly because of my wife and daughter's health. The daughter lives with us after her marriage failed. Had we know about your lifestyle at retirement there is no doubt that we would have been a part of it. We loved camping and owned some type of RV for about 50 of our 60 years of marriage. The UA-cam videos is the closest to your lifestyle as we can get and I have watched so many of them. By the way we are from Asheville, NC and yes free camping is very hard to find in that area. If you drive from Asheville to Mount Mitchell you can certainly tell the difference in temperature by going higher from lower elevation. If I were alone today I'd be out looking for a van but I'm not. I love my family and must stay with them. That's all from this envious old man in Melbourne FL.
Many folks in the mid-west and Canada head to deep S. TX. (2.5 hours south of Corpus Christi at the tip of TX) We call them Winter Texans. The Gulf water is pretty warm and you can camp on the beach.
Omg, that sounds terrible, I live in Texas and it’s so incredibly humid here and Corpus will be super humid. But to each their own I recommend anyone going to Texas to thoroughly research about the heat and humidity there. Been here 10 years and still not used to it, leaving soon.
As a Ben-Noahide Jew....letting the land rest (at least every 7 years)....is a must. Bob, I think this is one of your greatest videos ever. I hope to meet you some day. Meeting you is on my "bucket" list. I am 65 and just retired and about to go....off grid.
I keep coming back to watch the snow bird schedule over and over. Bob, you were made to be the man who would love being a Nomad to the degree that you would be willing to share the passion with others. Just to know about this simple way to live and connect with kind people is enough to restore our hope. Imagine folks who are in abusive marriages or are abused by the system. They can now have a workable plan and just leave. Wow. Your humanity is unmatched in this crazy world full of psychopaths.
I have only done stealth camping and hated it. I felt ashamed, dirty, looked down on. I have been watching your videos for quite some time now and am really excited about going boondocking. I am learning a lot from you wise teacher.
Mr. Wells, it's truly been a joy to follow your UA-cam channel. In my opinion, your one of the most important people on the subject of living in your vehicle. The News organizations have take notice of your good deeds. You are the ambassador of information on this subject. Best regards. 👍🇺🇸 🚙
Really enjoy watching your vids, Bob. My 20 year old pick up died at 316k miles, and I've got a chevy cargo van now and am working on it. This summer we will to to NM! Thanks again.
I’ve been a snowbird for the last 4 years after retiring. RVing from northern Maine to the southwest, this year I’m staying in southern NM state parks. Northern Maine has at most 10 days a year over 90 degrees and always cools well at sunset. There is no comparable boondocking anywhere in the Northeast, but I can’t leave my perennial berry bushes behind and love the travel. Thanks for your video!
I use to live in Green mountain falls in1968-1969 spent 2 winters having. Blast. As long as the wind is not blowing much i wore just a blouse and slacks regular shoes with 2 feet of snow. I loved it.
Be careful Bob, you do so well at promoting the lifestyle, next thing you know the places will become overcrowded! Thanks for your wonderful videos and teaching, I'm taking baby steps to live the life we were meant to live, almost there!
The most beautifully said... this is the first video and best video on living one with nature... where your words touched my heart and made us one with the earth and each othr..thank you with much gratitude, light and love JGenevieve
I love you & the awesome information that you provide. I'm planning to begin living this way in 6-8 months (saving as money as possible between now & then) my kids r grown now so I'm free to do my own thing. I'm a little nervous because I'm a woman but after watching your videos I'm confident I can do this. Thanks for all the information and the ongoing teaching videos!
I love the cold at night. Everyone who has ever lived with me is bothered by the fact that I have to have the windows open year round no matter the temp...I figure if you are cold, put another blanket on...if you are hot stay in shade and have constant movement of air and drink water...(if you have the ability, just put a cold wet cloth on your pulse points...it will cool your blood, therefore cool your core.
That place looks like HEAVEN! So nice to check into your channel in the midst of rat racing 🐀Cannot wait for this series. The questions you address here are exactly what I’ve been wondering about. Wish I had some of the joy for life you have. I am sort of living in a comatose state right now just trying to create a comfortable retirement. Look forward to every single post. Your videos are a very bright, happy spot in every day. Thank you Mr Wells.
Hey i really enjoyed your snowbirding video is super informative especially for someone like myself at 71 years old I’m really looking forward to being a snowbird you can blame the coronavirus on that.This is something I’ve always dreamt about and I’m glad I came to my senses and to start to enjoy life. Thanks Again-Norbert M.
Thank you for doing these videos, I'm getting ready to do some traveling with my husband who is retiring in January of 2021. We have had several RV's and have one that we want to travel in. We enjoy seeing what God has given us in beauty and awe. See you soon on our travels.
Thanks so much for sharing. I live in Florida to be close to one daughter and family. Every year I panic when hurricanes hit. Last year I fled to California to be with my younger daughter and family. I must admit that the earthquakes, mudslides, and fires send me into panic mode, too. I am looking forward to this information and truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge . You are a blessing to many!
MT. Washington in N.H. (The White Mountains Region) is 6,288 Feet. The weather can be UNPREDICTABLE at the Top! N.H. , VT. & ME. all have GREAT Inexspensive Camping (State Parks or Private). Great Videos Bob!
Bob, thank you for all the great info in your videos. All you do help all of us to take the right steps for van life and rv’ing. You really do a great service for many, many people.
Being a lawyer, I am fed up with people, fed up with everyday life... Tired of my firm... Hate my boss. Everyday is the same thing. Wish I can throw it away and just live in my van
What is really keeping you from being free of all the dislikes in your life???? University loans? Single parent? Medical Dx? Live your life, be free. In every decision there are compromises, the decision(s) we make independent of others will manifest happiness. “To thy self be true.” Assess, plan, take action, you got this!
One of the best setting backgrounds I've watched you in...I love how your dog invariably weaves himself in and out of your videos-every single one. Nice trademark!
Also he's right about Oregon. There are absolutely amazing places to stay cool in oregon. Unfortunately they are almost always booked and filled to capacity in the Summer. The coast (rarely mentioned but also a great way to escape the heat) as well as up in the mountains.
Excellent. Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’m planning to start at your next WRTR. I planned 3 years ago and something prevented me each time. Thanks for your excellent teaching. I’m 65 and look forward to meeting others and learning about this lifestyle.
You are my favorite person ever Bob. Thank you so much for everything that you do especially your words. You are one awesome dude and you're really helping to make this planet a better place whether you know it or not or whether anyone gives you credit for it or not, you rock brother.
We're glad we found you, we're Newbies, such Newbies that we finally decided on the RV we want, a Leisure Travel Vans Unity FX Class C and placed the factory order to get it built the way we want it the first week of February. We've watched videos about setting up and breaking down a campsite, how to keep bugs and rodents out, how to deal with the plumbing, items that are a must to carry along [my dad kept a roll of duct tape in his cars for as long as I can remember] and how to stock the galley. Even tho we don't plan on full timing it yet, your 'Weather for Snowbirds 101' video is excellent!! We have 2 Greyhound and Tazzy the 1 year old Tasmanian Devil Chihuahua puppy, the FX is 25'-1" bumper to bumper and not big enough for the 5 of us, besides one of the Greys gets car sick. The Greys will stay home with a dog/house sitter and Tazzy will go along on our trips which will vary from a few days to 2-3 weeks per month much of the year. Hubby and I both hate snow and cold so needless to say we will NEVER be found exploring anyplace with daytime temps of less than 70 F no matter what time of year. I was dealt CHF/PE, a death sentence disease, in 2015 so in addition to daily meds, a monthly check up and a timeline [I'll beat it], I'm elevation restricted to 4500 ft for now. Your video gave us a few hints of places in the South West to search for RV Resorts/Parks 'til we're experienced enough to try boondocking. GREAT VIDEO, more please!!!
Bob. I am three minutes into your video and have to say: I live in NM ... Albuquerque ... and it is unbearably hot in the summer, often higher than 100 degrees. Global warming. I hate it here. I am moving and never coming back. LOL. Maybe a different area up north would be OK. I have a heater for cold places, and look forward to hearing where I can go and stay not so hot in the summers. I know you won't disappoint! Thank you!!!
Hello Bob. I just wanted to say thank you for another good video talk. I find you inspiring very often. You are teaching me many things as well that i didn't know about before. I hope to be joining you in the boondocking life soon. My general long range plan is to see you folks out west next January if the creek don't rise and I'm still looking at the grass from the right side, Best of luck and wishes to you! John
You are such an inspiration to me in my quest for van living. It seems like it's taking forever, saving for a rig and getting rid of my things etc. But then I watch one of your videos and I am reminded of the big WHY. Your videos encourage me to press on with my plan, knowing it will be worth it in the end. Thanks again for another great video. In the meantime, I look forward to the day when I will live in more harmony and cooperation with our earth. :)
Great philosophy, Bob! I will become a snowbird soon after downsizing and leaving my bricks and mortar home. My original plans to live in San Diego or Sacramento with family are quickly dissipating. Having a constant change of scenery in my backyard is a dream I've carried since retiring from the Air Force. Thank you for all of this invaluable information you disseminate via your wonderful channel.
If you don't like hot weather, the Oregon Coast is 40F to 70F degrees year round, and you don't have to be up two miles to enjoy it. In Oregon you don't go up in elevation to find cooler weather, you just move closer to the coast. Though I really wouldn't recommend it in the winter, if you have other options. But people do tent camp here even in the winter.
FYI for Newbie, yes I know this is an old post: I suggest you may want to rent your home for approximately 1 years to see if van-life is for you. Living inside your rig, It’s great for vacations, and you can go back home. Living the life and finding somewhere to sleep every night gets old and tiresome. If you need to live near the city And a little lonely in the desert away from family/friends. Bob Wells has a RTR in Quartzite AZ every Jan. May want to attend for more useful information and lifestyle and great opportunity for building your community. for more info. Goggles “Home On Wheels Alliance “
Bob, this video is very accurate about elevation and temperature. I tell people all the time here in Southwest Fl. that the nice thing about growing up in Phoenix is that in the winter we could leave in the morning, drive 3 hours north, snow ski all day and at night be back home swimming in our pool ::)) Man I gotta get away from these Eastern snowbirds and head west lolol I'm prepping to make this a reality. Best wishes :::))
Thank you Bob. I started looking for something like this but no one gave me the foundational info I needed but I kind of figured you would. Thank you for doing what you do! You're a hero to many people
These videos are my favorite subject matter that you cover, Bob. Come join us in Sedona in mid-March for a meditation retreat. We'd love to have you with us.
Hi Bob, what a beautiful view behind you! One thing I think is very important for you to tell your viewers is to read about altitude sickness before they go so they take the proper steps to enjoy the mountains and recognize the symptoms of altitude sickness. Hydration is very important. It is beautiful here in Colorado. Enjoy!
Seida Kuranosuke I'm sorry hear that. I'm from San Diego and I really need to move back to that elevation. Since I've been in Colorado, I've been put on continuous oxygen and heart meds to survive this altitude. Left side of my heart has become enlarged as well. A high elevation can really effect some people.
Excellent video as always. Bob, I mentioned before that I'd love a video on certain weather related dangers such as flash floods, high winds, etc. I know they're not predictable but I believe monsoons and other systems are prevalent in certain months/seasons. Also, some education on identifying dangerous land features such as washes, etc.. You are such a good teacher Bob. I've learned so much from your videos and appreciate your message regarding the rat race. It's so true!
One gets further working with Mother Nature than working against her. Wise words indeed!
Wise words providing a simple formula for life.
I was told to follow the strawberry festivals for great weather ;)
Desert in winter. Mountains in summer. Works for me.
Amen!!
I've never heard of the term slabs where the heck is that

Hi Bob & all on the channel. I purchased my van truck 2 years ago to go nomad soon. My van is named after Bob Wells cheap r v living!! My vans name is Bobby Socks!! Thank you for valued classes, inspiration. Your partner Susan? Inspirational also. Next l am getting my travel companion !
Many of us are living vicariously through you till we, too, can become one of the tribe!
After months of freezing temps in the Northeast, your message of being in harmony with Mother Nature really resonates with me. Thank you, Bob.
I’ve been doing this going to warmer climates in winter. I thought LA area would be a lot warmer than it was this winter. Low 60s was ok but I wasn’t in a car but in hotels still.
That’s very good wisdom about living in harmony with the land so it has a time to rest...awesome!
Good information thanks
It's cool that I came here for a few tips on Summer camping and stayed for the philosophy.
You're a great communicator, Bob.
One of my favorite Bob Wells vlogs. Something about the serenity of the background and simplicity of production. ❤️
Great word ! I really wanted to know about all that.
I am so jealous of you, Caravan Carolyn, Carolyn's RV Life, and so many others. I was forced into retirement at 58 1/2 by my employer.

Look at the view behind you! WOW!!
CoolCat Carolena amazing! Looks like a backdrop!
Absolutely stunning 💕
CoolCat Carolena I want to paint it!!
yes that's amazing! and I am in Colorado I am going there soon!
Ahaha I love watching the little dog wander around back there hehe
I have only done stealth camping and hated it. I felt ashamed, dirty, looked down on. I have been watching your videos for quite some time now and am really excited about going boondocking. I am learning a lot from you wise teacher.

Mary Crawford I recommend CarolynsRVliving youtube channel. She gives great info as a solo female nomad.
ragdolllibby I'm already subscribed to her channel. Thx
I would love to do this , but don't have the confidence. Glad that you do.
Beautiful spot.
Mr. Wells, you truly are in tune with Mother Earth! Some call you a Guru, I think of you as a RV naturist. I doth my hat to you.
God bless Bob Wells ✌️
I love the cold at night.

I stay in the desert winter flagstaff or Arizona white mountains in the summer 10,000 feet elevation. Cool temperatures 65 to 70s summer months.
I'm going to try to do that next summer and get out of the heat. Could you share a couple of places with us fellow full-timers 😊
I’ve never heard that expression before, the land needs rest, makes sense!
Thanks so much for sharing. I live in Florida to be close to one daughter and family. Every year I panic when hurricanes hit. Last year I fled to California to be with my younger daughter and family. I must admit that the earthquakes, mudslides, and fires send me into panic mode, too. I am looking forward to this information and truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge . You are a blessing to many!
Helpful! Never thought about elevation like that before. I live in the Midwest. I hate to be hot and can’t imagine the desert in summer. Thanks!
Thank you Bob. For all you do for us Nomads.
Excellent information! Thank you Bob!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sounds like a perfect schedule to live by! Thank you Bob. I will look forward to the videos!
OMG BOB... THAT BACKDROP IS EVERYTHING..✨😍✨😱
MT. Washington in N.H. (The White Mountains Region) is 6,288 Feet. The weather can be UNPREDICTABLE at the Top! N.H. , VT. & ME. all have GREAT Inexspensive Camping (State Parks or Private). Great Videos Bob!
I LOVE your videos. Your philosophical life living encouragement is so uplifting!
Awesome. Thanks BOB!!!!!!!
Thank you for your honesty 🙏
So pleasent to hear your voice Bob !
Take care !
I am in! Can’t wait!
Bob, thank you for all the great info in your videos. All you do help all of us to take the right steps for van life and rv’ing. You really do a great service for many, many people.
The Colorado high country is the place to be in Summer!!
You are correct - Mt. Washington, NH, 6288 feet. Definitely the exception to the flatlander rule out here in the east!
Being a lawyer, I am fed up with people, fed up with everyday life... Tired of my firm... Hate my boss. Everyday is the same thing. Wish I can throw it away and just live in my van
Go for it!!!
Ditto, looking for a group to buy land with.
You can! People in their 70’s and sometimes beyond do it!
What is really keeping you from being free of all the dislikes in your life???? University loans? Single parent? Medical Dx?
Live your life, be free. In every decision there are compromises, the decision(s) we make independent of others will manifest happiness. “To thy self be true.” Assess, plan, take action, you got this!
Please disregard my comment, noticed now this video presented 6 years ago, ugh. I will note in the future the date video released ;)
One of the best setting backgrounds I've watched you in...I love how your dog invariably weaves himself in and out of your videos-every single one. Nice trademark!
Also he's right about Oregon. There are absolutely amazing places to stay cool in oregon. Unfortunately they are almost always booked and filled to capacity in the Summer. The coast (rarely mentioned but also a great way to escape the heat) as well as up in the mountains.
Wow! This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks, Bob!
Excellent. Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’m planning to start at your next WRTR. I planned 3 years ago and something prevented me each time. Thanks for your excellent teaching. I’m 65 and look forward to meeting others and learning about this lifestyle.
THAT IS SO SO BEAUTIFUL I CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED
That's great Bob! I'm looking so forward to those videos. Very helpful video!
Thank Bob will be living in my van full time the start of April
Thank you, Bob! I appreciate your videos and intend to hit the road soon!! Safe travels my friends 👍🏻
Lake Tahoe has a nice free campground just south of Tahoe City...crawling with bears...cold at night in July with the mountain dew!
The best of Bob Wells.
Thank you so very much for sharing Bob! You are awesome love it. 👍❤️
I’m back! I love this video and I love the views. It’s one of my favorite Bob Wells teaching moments. Peace ☮️
You are my favorite person ever Bob. Thank you so much for everything that you do especially your words. You are one awesome dude and you're really helping to make this planet a better place whether you know it or not or whether anyone gives you credit for it or not, you rock brother.
I really think this will get a great series. YES
There’s Cody! I love watching for Cody to walk through your videos. He’s awesome
We're glad we found you, we're Newbies, such Newbies that we finally decided on the RV we want, a Leisure Travel Vans Unity FX Class C and placed the factory order to get it built the way we want it the first week of February.

I learned so much from this video... THANK YOU!!!
Dude lives in an and RV and shoots videos in front of post cards...what a life!!!
U know nothing
Hello Bob. I just wanted to say thank you for another good video talk. I find you inspiring very often. You are teaching me many things as well that i didn't know about before. I hope to be joining you in the boondocking life soon. My general long range plan is to see you folks out west next January if the creek don't rise and I'm still looking at the grass from the right side, Best of luck and wishes to you! John
Wow what a beautiful campground that lake is so clear!
love this guys philosophy oh our planet.

Heading out this April full time in my lwb transit connect. Learning so much on this channel. Thanks, Bob!
love your videos, can't wait for the rest on this subject.
Very informative. Thanks for the I do!
I will continue to watch ur vids on snowbirds as a Canadian I plan to live the mobile life when I retire.
Excellent! Have been wondering about this for weeks.
Great philosophy, Bob! I will become a snowbird soon after downsizing and leaving my bricks and mortar home. My original plans to live in San Diego or Sacramento with family are quickly dissipating. Having a constant change of scenery in my backyard is a dream I've carried since retiring from the Air Force. Thank you for all of this invaluable information you disseminate via your wonderful channel.
Bob I absolutely love all of your information you are the one that inspired me to become a nomad thank you very much
Michelle
That view is AMAZING!!!! Absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you, Bob. You're an inspiration to me.
Thank you Bob! So helpful.
The Catskills (in NY state) are very comfortable in summer. Where I stay near Hancock, NY it's almost always in the 50s & 60s at night.
Gorgeous backdrop. Wow!!
That scenery WOW BEAUTIFUL!!!!
If you don't like hot weather, the Oregon Coast is 40F to 70F degrees year round, and you don't have to be up two miles to enjoy it. In Oregon you don't go up in elevation to find cooler weather, you just move closer to the coast. Though I really wouldn't recommend it in the winter, if you have other options. But people do tent camp here even in the winter.
Seida Kuranosuke Inland gets hot in the summer and cold in the winter. You have to be near the Coast to enjoy the mild climate.
We just listed our house. We’re ready to start living and traveling. 🙏
FYI for Newbie, yes I know this is an old post: I suggest you may want to rent your home for approximately 1 years to see if van-life is for you.
Living inside your rig, It’s great for vacations, and you can go back home.
Living the life and finding somewhere to sleep every night gets old and tiresome. If you need to live near the city
And a little lonely in the desert away from family/friends.
Bob Wells has a RTR in Quartzite AZ every Jan. May want to attend for more useful information and lifestyle
and great opportunity for building your community. for more info. Goggles “Home On Wheels Alliance “
Bob, this video is very accurate about elevation and temperature. I tell people all the time here in Southwest Fl. that the nice thing about growing up in Phoenix is that in the winter we could leave in the morning, drive 3 hours north, snow ski all day and at night be back home swimming in our pool ::)) Man I gotta get away from these Eastern snowbirds and head west lolol I'm prepping to make this a reality. Best wishes :::))
Thank you Bob. I started looking for something like this but no one gave me the foundational info I needed but I kind of figured you would. Thank you for doing what you do! You're a hero to many people
That view........ Wow

wow!!! love the view...and love this idea of being a snow bird
These videos are my favorite subject matter that you cover, Bob. Come join us in Sedona in mid-March for a meditation retreat. We'd love to have you with us.
So beautiful and inspiring! Thank you, Bob. Bless you.
Hi Bob, what a beautiful view behind you! One thing I think is very important for you to tell your viewers is to read about altitude sickness before they go so they take the proper steps to enjoy the mountains and recognize the symptoms of altitude sickness. Hydration is very important. It is beautiful here in Colorado. Enjoy!
Seida Kuranosuke I'm sorry hear that. I'm from San Diego and I really need to move back to that elevation. Since I've been in Colorado, I've been put on continuous oxygen and heart meds to survive this altitude. Left side of my heart has become enlarged as well. A high elevation can really effect some people.
