You two make a great couple. Thanks for the warm feeling I get watching you two.
Thank you, Philip! 👍😀
Have fun and take care and take it easy and enjoy it
This looks like my kind of paradise... Thank you so much for sharing. It is so beautiful...
Dave's Method for Sure 👍
So beautiful and peaceful love it 😍
Great place
@ 15:56 You could get an isolator installed from the house battery to your battery bank for your solar for the cheap. Your house battery would keep your solar batteries topped off while driving down the road. A friend of mine was telling me they now make smart isolators that turn themselves on/off depending upon the needs of the solar batteries. I live in Florida so I just opted for a standard isolator that I turn on manually.
Fun video. We enjoy your channel
Dave, You're a Pro! It's as much a work of art as it is a smore. Golden on the outside and melted on the inside. You have to have patience to create a master piece. Job well done. I salute you.
Thank you! We are having so much fun with this lifestyle! Most people sided with Carrie on this one 😂 Thanks for having my back. 😂😎
@@oneadVANtureatatime I'm not a smore fan but I've got to tell you, I definitely would have gobbled up that one.
Definitely let it catch fire and blow it out! Just creates more flavor. Another good one guys, thanks.
Love s’mores!
I was there last summer and that hot spring was great!
The toilet chair was a hoot! Great way to get a conversation started. That was a really good video. It's been fun to go back to your first videos and see just how far along you guys have come. You are now pro's! You really capture the experience very well. I enjoy every one of them.
Thank you for all of your kindness! Comments like this keep us motivated to keep up the hard work. We are having a great time exploring and sharing with you 😀
Van life-things must be multi functional 😎
Beautiful campground! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! We love that area around Stanley Idaho, especially without the summer crowds😀
Both are great!
Thank you, Ann. I still win because Carrie does not like chocolate 😂😂
That spot looks great along the river. Endless supply of water and a place to dump a cassette toilet if someone had one. I was amazed at the water temperature 😳😳 that’s crazy hot but love how you can adjust the temperature. The free firewood is a bonus. Nice video 👍🏼
This really was an AMAZING spot! Just wait until next weeks video!!!
Thank you I didn’t know but I will check it out and do it thank you again
Cool! Like the tunes...
Oh Yes! Dave wins the s'mores challenge and the toilet seat gave me the giggles and brought back some really funny memories of geology field studies, so many years ago! You two are the most fun!
Thank you! I need your geology help again as many of these sandstone boulders have round holes in them....I am guessing wind and rain. 😜
@@oneadVANtureatatime There are a myriad of possibilities! Lol that's the fun of geologic investigations, trying to arrive at a plausible solution. Ten geologists will have 10 different Opinions! LOL 😆
yay!! I found the famous portable loo camp fire chair again! I enjoyed this so much the first time, time for a rerun! Dave has the PERFECT smores techniques... liquified insides, BROWN crunchy outside if possible (no fire!) and melted chocolate.... mmmm mmmmm good!
Yep, that's the right video! I miss that place! Thank you for going back and watching it. 😀😀😀❄️
I love it when people leave wood for the next guy. That is how I usually get mine.
So good to see you guys!
Thank you, Cesalt! I have been wondering how much progress your van has made in the past year? Maybe will get to see you again on the road this coming year. 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime I’d love to see you again! The build is slow but steady enough for all that’s going on. Time for me to order the stainless shower pan next.
Wow! Great area!
Enjoyed the video
Thank you! 😂
You guys are having too much fun 😊
Thank you! We are loving our new lifestyle 😀
Beautiful spot. BJ likes her marshmallow golden brown I like mine torched like Carrie. Great job on the video. Loved a day in the life of a vanlifer. Happy Trails
I can't believe how many people like burnt marshmallows 😂😂. Pretty sure you guys have a Dutch oven? Now that we have a cast iron skillet we might have to try cooking on the camp fire 🔥 😀
@@oneadVANtureatatime Ya we have a Dutch oven. Used it a lot works great.
great spot! thanks for the GPS info.
Make one pot pasta dishes all the time, they are super easy and delish! Dinner next to the fire, even better!
So cool!
Great fun you guys!
Thank you, Spell Madam! We were having so much fun up there!
Not sure how I missed this video when it was released. I normally side with Carrie on things for safety but Dave has the correct method for smores. I found a great recipe for kale. Chop it one way, then turn the cutting board 90 degrees so you chop again in the opposite direction. Take your knife and scrap it into a pile then chop it some more. Hold the cutting board over the trash can and dump that crap out.... order a pizza.
+SemiRetiredBob OH MY GOSH!!! You just crack us up Bob!!!! We both knew what was coming but then you ended with order a pizza!!!! BRILLIANT!!! YOU MAKE US SMILE!!
Golden brown for s’mores. Team Dave
Thank you, Betsy! Patience pays off. 😀
Wow, that is a great location. You really lucked out having some warm days. That firewood, what a win!!! Marshmallows...I enjoy charred lol. That portable potty is cool. I would definitely keep it. So funny. "Yeah one, just one" haha. One pot spaghetti...that is the way I make it...Dave won't know the kale is in there lol. That hot spring tub. How cool is that!? Such a fun video...good job! ❄❄❄❄❄
Dave's method
By far. S’mores the way Dave makes them.
Ok.. playing middle of the road.. Carries burnt marshmallow, with gram, but have to have chocolate.. Dave is right on with that! So thankful for videos! Can’t wait to get on the road!!!
Thank you! Finally someone on my marshmallow side! We are excited for you to get on the road! Please feel free to ask us any questions, we enjoy being helpful if we can. We can even set up a phone conversation if you have lots of questions. See you on the road! 👱♂️👩🐕🎾
That one pot pasta dish looks delish!
Oh man! What a great spot! Wow
Wait till next week!!! We get 13 inches of snow and have to dig ourselves out! Chains, traction boards... the works!!!
@@oneadVANtureatatime You guys are gutsy! Such an inspiration ❤️
Gutsy or stupid..... it’s a fine line😂😂😂
Charred all over!!!
Have stayed at Sunny Gulch campground a couple times. Been in the Stanley area 5 times in the Summer and definitely plenty of people around. :) Keep up the interesting videos!
That’s exactly how I have always done mine ... flame !!! Eat outside re cook eat again 😊
Charred of course!
He cooked it perfect just stopped to soon.
That's a pretty sweet hot tub, especially when you consider the scenery. 👍
It was amazing! We ended up going there 5 times. It was so relaxing and only a few minutes away from our campsite. Bald eagles seem to love that river and we spotted one nearly every day. 😀
I'm so jelly! Lol.
You guys are cool. Thanks for the regular normal people videos! My family will follow your destinations very shortly on the way to Idaho. Peace and Happy New Year!
EDIT: Your husband is a crackup and only can be o because you get it. A good wife makes a happy life :)
Charred is best.
No!! 😂😂😂 Carrie won the vote for sure.
Golden brown no fire! YUMMY YUMMY 😋✌️💕🚐
Golden brown!1
Golden brown thats how I do it too great job
Yes! Another vote for me. 😂
Carrie method all the way!!!
So funny!
Darn it guy's i didn't get to see you do laundry lol
Seriously the Smores and Hot Springs 😎👍🏼
Have a Awesome Day!
-Stone
I think both ways of the marshmallow is ok. Happy Journey!
Thank you, Wanda! I am just happy she doesn't like the chocolate 😂 More for me. 😀
! ! ! ROODLE, THE KIND LION ! ! !
You guys rock!👍🤠🇺🇸🙏✝️
Thank you!! 😎
Hi guys everything that you cook over an open flame campfire has to have a little char safe and happy travels 😜😃👣🐾👣👍
Golden brown please.and try the marshmallow on those little brownie bites you get in a bag from the snack aisle,with peanut butter
I love burnt marshmallows!😋
Crazy talk! 😂😂😂
High five!!!!!! Yes!! So good... Carrie
Love mine charred. Carrie for the win.👍
Yeah!!! I (Carrie) clearly won this debate😂
Golden brown 👍
Yes! Thank you, Cindy! Patience pays off on the S’more making. To think Carrie skips the chocolate, that's a big win for me. 😂
Loved all of it! Glad we subscribed to your channel. Mark & Teresa
+Out Of Office Camping thank you so much!!! Welcome
@@oneadVANtureatatime 😁
Good morning Dave, Carrie & Roodle ! That's a pretty awesome campground & a delicious meal ! I'm with you both on marshmallows. Dave method 1st slow & patient so the inside is a gooey goodness. Then Carrie I agree with you. I let it turn into a charred flame of greatness & blow it out. I love to eat just the marshmallows alone. Hot springs are awesome, but I guarantee I'd find the only spot where it's cold..... Carrie get Dave an oven mitten for the next hot spring... Thanks for laughs, great video & keep smiling !
Okay....Im liking your marshmallow method! I CANNOT wait to roast some marshmallows again. Oh gosh...cold hot spring is no good! Dave would probably like it though. I like me hot springs nice and hot!! Now I want to find a hotspring!!!
@@oneadVANtureatatime
Thanks Carrie, you all have a wonderful day !
Setting on the throne like a king eating S’mores! Yummy! But, catching the marshmallow IS correct Dave! 😁🤙
Yes! Patience pays off with the marshmallows 😂 My awesome seat got buried with a snowstorm and in the commotion I forgot about it. I hope the next person has as much fun as we did with it...after the snow melts in the spring 😂😂😂
I like my marshmallows burnt on the outside, gooey/creamy on the inside...so I’ll go with Carrie’s version. Hugs to the fur baby. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you! I can't believe how many people prefer burnt marshmallows 😂 I would have never guessed.
I like my marshmallow golden brown! I'll take my time, it's worth the wait.
I’m with Dave, golden brown for me. Love the camp stool too!
S'mores! My Girl Scout daughters came up w/ a version using Reeses instead of Hershey's - very yummy! :)
I'm with Carrie, the char marshmallows all the way!!! It gets so yummy, toasty and gooey. When Dave said he would use luggable loo for a seat, I thought what a great idea to have a (spare) folding camp chair. I would have taken it.... that's just me.
Dave is all about using what he can find! And I must say he has found some really awesome items.... I think it’s because he is ALWAYS picking up trash!!
New sub here! I love your journey, it’s so awe inspiring ❤️🙏🏽🇺🇸
Thank you for subscribing! We love this lifestyle and are honored to share it with you. 😀
Absolutely excellent video! Gorgeous place once again! As far as s'mores go I like my marshmallow (vegetarian version) on the well done side. I have the same chickpea pasta... I didn't know you can make it that way... That is excellent! All of your videos are excellent and never disappoint I look forward to the next each time. They are good enough to be a television show! You guys are the best! 👍👍👍👍👍😁 Oh, and Roodle...way to cute!!!!❤️
Thank you, Marilyn! We appreciate the huge compliments! Chickpea pasta rocks, I have trouble with gluten if I overdue it, so these kind of substitutes help and taste good. We love that entire Stanley Idaho area!
Carries got the knack for toasting marshmallows Dave likes his roasted! One of each for me please 🥰
Right on! We are missing campfires with the burn ban in Colorado right now. ⛺ Bring on winter! 😂😂😂
Love my marshmallows burnt black
Madness, Diana! 😂😂😂 Ok, maybe..but with no chocolate? 🤪
With or with out. I’m not picky
I think charred is the best, you go Carrie
You made me hungry lol
Awesome video awesome camp on my bucket list
Thank you, Terry! That entire Stanley area made me a huge fan of Idaho.
Carrie, Dave is so lucky to have you as a wife! What a cook, looks so good, love your cooking sessions. Dave we have a converted Ambulance and we decided to have our solar panels on suitcases instead of on the roof so when we camp we can park in the shade and run our solar panel in the sun all day and the ambulance stays cool in the shade and we still get full sun power. It is working great for us!
Hi Carmen! I would love to see your ambo! I didn't even think of the benefit of staying in the shade. How long of cord did you end up going with? I was thinking of buying a 30-foot extension.
@@oneadVANtureatatime I believe my husband got a 50ft. extension and it works great. The only complain I have is that the solar panel suitcase gets heavy but once you have them all sent up you don’t have to put them away for a few days. Plus I can’t complain to much because my husband is in charge of the solar panels😂
Smores his way
Both of you are right! And, no white refined sugar for dogs. Or us.
That was a lot of wood!
We scored! Only used up half or less. The remaining wood is probably under 6 feet of snow now. 😂
Im realy enjoing watching your videos , wish i can do like you guys soon 🥰
Great landscape and tour, thanks.
Char eat rechar eat rest!!
Yep, that's Carrie! 😂 but you have to add chocolate right?
@@oneadVANtureatatime I eat my marshmallows alone, but if I had a s'more of course chocolate melted!!
Some mores? Golden brown. But the only way I’ll eat hot dogs is charred!
Sorry Carrie, I prefer Dave's Method, chocolate and all. However you don't always get to decide how the marshmallow turns out!!! You guys are truly adorable. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Mrs. T 😀 Ok sure but a S’more without chocolate? That's a win for me 😂 Dave
Sorry Carrie. I like Dave's method, Golden brown and you need to put the chocolate in there !!!
I like my marshmallow lightly browned but I'm impatient and it always catches on fire.
Use chocolate chip cookies instead of gram crackers and choclate the chewy chocolate chip are best
Char, definitely char.
😂 You and Carrie won this popular vote hands down. 😎
😁💖
No question about it,Carrie card is best.
Yes, I clearly won this battle!!!! We are not competitive at all 😂😂😂 either way though I think we both win!!
Start by warming the marshmallow so the inside gets warm. Then torch it! Let it burn for a second or two, blow it out and immediately put it on the chocolate (Nutella). You get the best of both worlds: char and marshmallow goo! Or I like the "char skin" tactic. Just burn it for a few, then peel off and eat the charred "skin". Back in the fire, eat the char skin. You get 3-4 good skins before you run out!
I love the Nutella idea! Carrie won't let me buy that stuff because I eat it straight out of the jar😂😂😂 I just learned the Nutella lid has a secret knife spreader hidden under the paper circle.
@@oneadVANtureatatime And I just learned about the secret spreader! Thanks, Dave! I eat Nutella out of the jar too. You can also try peanut butter!
Next time you see a Harbor Freight store get a temp gun so you will look like pro hot springers.
Ha ha! Adding it to our must have list!!!
Definitely charred... 😄
Ahh! 😂 Carrie definitely agrees with you. I am just happy I get all the chocolate. 😀
I buy the mini marshmallows for hot chocolate but also as an occasional 🐶 treat. Madi will run after them as I toss them down the hallway. He’s now 17-1/2 yrs old so I doubt the random white puffy pillow has caused him any harm. Madi also enjoys spaghetti mixed into his dried kibble. Makes me laugh when his white beard ends up looking like a young’n with spaghetti stains. Thankfully he waits for me to clean his face before leaving his feeding mat area. 🍝
I bet Roodle would like mini marshmallows as well. Madi sounds like a great dog! 17 years old is amazing. I can just see him waiting for you to clean his face. That sounds like something Roodle would do. 😂🐕
Dave is a s’mores king. I love my s’mores like Dave but usually end up burning the marshmallow like Carrie! Haha! And is it really a s’more without chocolate? 🍫 😋 🔥
A.K.A Bevs Bathtub😁... we stayed just blocks down the road and enjoyed it every evening this past summer😁. What a great video guys! You’re so lucky that NOBODY was there😳. We had to compete with multiple folks for the perfect spot.
Wow! We could tell that it gets VERY busy there! It really is a beautiful area..... I can see why so many people go there!!
😁💖
That Spaghetti looked good! I'm hungry now LOL
Marshmallows need to be golden brown, no char. I'm with Dave.
Try not to charred things because burnt carbon is carcinogenic & bad for your body.
I am a horrible cook, (I just don't like cooking) but I might try that spaghetti.
Also, im yelling yeah keep the porta potty 🤣😂😅
Also, camper van Kevin just adjusted a solar panel to tilt for the same reason.
I think the spaghetti is a wee bit better with regular noodles!!! I really like one pot meals.....really great for small spaces and usually very East too!
Carrie 100%
Carrie won this challenge 😂
Very nice video...why not are you open fire cooking? I like your boondocking style.
I do sometimes. Now that we have a cast-iron skillet I think we will be cooking on the fire more 😀
"You're not keeping that" 🤣
