    It's so nice to see a nice couple like you having a great time together! I wish I had that! In the next six months or so, I'm buying a new 32 foot Class A RV to live and travel in, but sadly, I won't have a wife or girlfriend with me... Outside of my cat, I will be completely alone all the time. I'm 43 years old, and I don't know anybody unfortunately. All of my friends live up north over 850 miles from where I live now. They're all married as well. I'm the only single person in our large group. I'm looking forward to these adventures and continuing to work from my laptop as little, or as many hours as I want, as a day trader... But traveling is never as fun when you're alone. There will be days where I probably won't say a word or even see anybody for the entire day. Ah, who knows what the future will bring though? It's been so long now, that I don't even know how to meet anybody lol. Especially women. Anyway, sorry for the sob story. I really am looking forward to this, and I love traveling, so I will make videos of these adventures. I'm so glad I found your channel! I will subscribe after this comment. Safe travels & best wishes to you both!

    I got up one morning before dawn at your magic spot because Venus, Mars, Saturn and Mercury were supposed to be visible before sunrise. Actually it was a day or two late for Mercury, which moves quickly. As I was watching the three planets, a light blinked on at the ridgeline about 30 miles away. At first I thought it was maybe car headlights, but then it rose slowly into the sky--it was Mercury.
