    Love being able to see a place before I actually drive through. Takes away a LOT of stress and anxiety.

    You produce excellent quality videos, so enjoyable to watch. Thank you. Love your hat. It looks great on you. I also love Jax. Thanks for including Jax on the video. He has stolen my heart. Deadwood is a pretty place.

    Discovered you 3 weeks ago. Caught up by watching 10 to 20 videos a day. One 10 minute video every couple of days is a real shock to the system. I think I have to go out and buy me a van just because of the withdrawal symptoms I'm having.
    PS Campervan Kevin's videos are helping reduce the anxiety. Thanks for the recommendation.

    I laugh every time I see Jax flop over. I have a Daschund and his front legs are only 3 inches long were his back legs are almost twice that long and he does the flop over thing too. Too cute.

    Why so many nasty comments? Is it jealousy? Boredom? What?? Eric seems like a nice guy just doing his thing not hurting anyone. There's a hell of a lot of mean spirited people out there! No I'm not Eric, I'm just a normal mum of two from the UK who thoroughly enjoys watching these videos! Can't wait for your next one!

    When going on a 3 week trip back in 1985 we went through that area and ran into cold and freezing rain and snow in and around that area in the middle of June, so be thankful that you didn't get any more than you did!

    Years ago we went to Deadwood and the Black Hills the first week of May for an early vacation. The first night in Deadwood we got 28 inches of heavy wet snow but had a great time in Deadwood. One of the must see places is the Adams Museum which is just a block or two off the main street. They have everything from an old 1880's steam locamotive to a casting of the largest gold nugget found right outside of town. Amazing (and free) place to visit.

      Mountain Prepper 4 Life thanks for that information. I was wondering why he never answered folks requests to tell them where that was. Odd. Anyway, your response is greatly appreciated. We travel with kayaks and that will be a fun place for us to stop. Right now we are boondocking in the hills overlooking the Deadwood area. Extremely beautiful where we are. Very peaceful.
