      My favorite part is that you are back with a new adventure. However, I love the Northeast shore of Superior. So many people miss the beauty of the lake in the winter. The offroad camper was awesome. It was good to see Wesley smiling.

    Hi Jim, Tori & dear, sweet Wesley❣️ Glad to see the family taking a vacation, but boy do you get a lot of snow! A winter, wonderland ❄️.
    I had my boyfriend watch the first part of the videos, but he needed to get some rest. We will keep watch the video, they remind us on our vacation to Rangeley State Park, in Rangeley, Maine.
    I wanted to rent a camper and live like you’ll are doing. But, unfortunately, David has a Herniated disc in his back, and is in a lot of pain.
    Hopefully he’ll seek help soon and get better. So for now, we’ll enjoy your family’s trip❣️😊. Thank you 🙏🏾
