Lot covered this week. The big takeaway: when you have your health, you have lots of dreams available. When you don’t, you have 1 dream. Boom. Mic drop. Well said.
03/9/19 me and my husband began a whole food plant based lifestyle. In May of 2019 we began rv full time. He has lost 47 lbs and I have lost 40. We are so much more healthy. We both came off all our diabetic meds, acid reflux meds and one of my hbp meds. We feel great
KYD 55 challenge sounds very interesting! Great timing too. This is my last week of employment! Retirement baby!! Stting goals and staying active/healthy are on the top of my list.
Adam from the Arrowhead Bike Farm here. Sorry you guys missed us but really appreciate the shout out! Also thank you for visiting and showing off WV a little. Hope to see ya at the farm soon!
Sorry for the comment double tap, but Caleb seems to have mastered the art of the "Silent Color Commentary". 21:21 to 26:00. Just adding to the conversation without really ever saying a word. Well done, young man. Well done. Active listening and participating in the conversation without distracting from the message. That...that is an art.
My husband and I just bought our RV a couple of months ago and last week we bought our truck. It has been a few months of preparing, but we are finally looking forward to hitting the road in January! We are both loving your channel! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the effort you put into helping people. We are very appreciative! We just signed up for your KYD55 challenge and are going to make sure we take time for our health. What a great idea you had to create a community of like minded peeps! I especially love all the 5's since 5 is the number for grace. Hope to see you on the road in the future, but until then we are glued to your videos!
So I just watched every episode from the first over the last 2 months, and I have to say, it has been a joy. Thanks you for sharing your life and thoughts with us.
I love my Berkey. I don’t have to carry gallons of drinking water anymore and put more plastic into the environment. The water is amazing out of the Berkey.
@@LoveBugXOXO It *can* break down into top and bottom sections plus lid if you want to do that. My experience has been that people usually secure it (bungee, etc.) &/or set it in the sink. The filtered water is in the bottom so you could just use it up (pour into travel mugs or bottles) and proceed. *However*, depending on how long you leave the top stored, if the filters get dry, you will need to re-chaarge them the same way it is done the first time they are used.
I enjoy these between the episode videos. They really do show more of the day-to-day RV life. The KYD 55 Day Exercise challenge is something I’ll need to look into. Not getting any younger and I need to shed some pounds.
I like that," Make time for your health or make time for your sickness!" I'm 68 going on 34 living on a hill with a lot of land. Moving rocks, cutting trees and firewood plus running a full time RV repair business. I don't think I have time to join you guys in your work out apps. If you want a real work out, stop by sometime and you will work out some muscles you never knew you had! :)
My grandfather could never understand why people spent money on a gym membership. He always let me workout for free! Never did he have all the work done.
I love your channel. Love the family. I've been fighting Ovarian cancer for the last 6 years. We started camping again in 2019 in a Rustic Trail teardrop we put 25,000 miles on in a year and a half. We now have a Casita. Time is the most precious thing that we have, I'm starting treatment again because cancer is in my lymph nodes. Safe travels
Hey it's Bike Farmer Rich here - One of the owners at Arrowhead Bike Farm. Thanks for the shout-out! It's really great to hear that our place and the area was recommended. BTW, you were just a few miles away from the bike farm when you were at the New River Gorge bridge. Maybe Next time!
Love the KYD55. I am a health and wellness consultant with Zurvita and have always said invest in your health before you'll invest in your sickness. I am 65 and feel better now that I did in my 20's and 30's. I'm in, can't wait
"Make time for your health or make time for your sickness". I can't agree more. I'm a workaholic that fails to take time out for my health. It's time for change, for sure! I recently interviewed for a remote job that will give me more time for my health and more of a chance to live my dream of traveling. Once I get the job, it will be 2 years and my husband and I will be on the road. ❤❤
You guy are just wonderful to watch and listen to ...I alway say I have my heat seater on and my husband always tells me I said it wrong and laughs at me. So happy to know I’m not the only heat seater in the universe.
I love all your videos, but I especially like these "between the Episodes" because you are showing us newbies/wannabies the real deal of everyday RV life--not just the pretty, exciting, or fun bits--but the nitty gritty. I have always appreciated your honesty and willingness to show your mistakes and boo-boos. Thank You!
Remembering when we lived in MD outside of DC, had to fumigate yards for Japanese beetles every yr. Health website is terrific idea. We've been housebound for almost 2 yr due to hubby's kidney cancer fight & now covid. Hoping things improve n 2021 & we can get back out on road. In meantime have lived vicariously thru KYD & your YT videos are VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. Many many thanks for all you share.
New River Gorge Bridge Festival, was held every October. People came from all around the world to jump off that bridge. It was really exciting to see. The Northbound lane was blocked to traffic. White water rafting is popular in this area. All those Lady bugs are set loose to kill the mites in the pine trees. I enjoyed coming down Route 19 with you. Traveled it 44 years coming from Pittsburgh, Pa. to Wytheville, Va. & vice versa.
Fall 2004, we were headed from NH west. Full timing for only 6 months. We stayed at a rv park in Lebanon, Tn for a few nights and saw the sights. When we left the 5th wheel was loaded with those beetles. 8 years later, when we went from full to part time, cleaning out the 5th wheel,I found lots of carcasses still hidden in the nooks and crannies of the rv. Merry Christmas to your family!
Being a proud West Virginian I hope you had a great time enjoying our state. We travel to Pipestem State Park all the time and really enjoy the 15 min drive from the state park to the town of Hinton / Bellepoint to float the New River on the other side of the Bluestone Dam. Also just a few minutes past that you can visit Sandstone Falls. WV is so beautiful but it really comes alive in the fall. Please come back!!
@@swv410 true but they didn't seem to give it much of a chance. There is so much to do with hiking, white water rafting, mountain biking, skiing, etc... I hope they give it another chance.
Marc, I definitely agree about the fresh water source at a dump station. I really like the campgrounds or rest areas that have the water supply separated from the dumping area.
You guys have given me so much great advice about the RV life! I can’t believe that I have something to share with you!!! Try an Aero Press for your coffee. It can do a cup (or thermos cup) at a time. It isn’t messy and the used coffee grounds can easily and cleanly be ejected into the garbage. And the coffee??? Fabulous. Alton Brown claims it to be his #1 way to make coffee!
Exactly as you stated "This is Gorgeous" as we're starring at your Wife. She is definitely a gem my friend. I'm absolutely envious of your guys traveling all over the place and living life to the fullest and see some amazing places. Love your videos. Keep up the great work.
Ah, Pipestem. What a beautiful park. Stayed there YEARS ago in our pop-up. There was a free Bluegrass concert at the amphitheater one evening and it started to rain. There were only 12 or so attendees, so the band invited everyone up on the covered stage and we all danced and clogged to the tunes. What fun!
I really connected with your comments about protecting one another. Whether in an RV or not, I've always felt the duty to look out for those in trouble, or simply to always be aware of trouble, and do something about it. I've always felt your family acted this way, and these overt statements simply confirm it. We've got your six.
We're only a couple months into our full-time RV journey, and one of the aspects that I like is other RVers are almost always willing to lend a helping hand. It's a great community!
Yes. We should help each other if we can safely do so. I think it’s super important for everyone to have a way to protect themselves as well...just in case.
I want it! I think right now the healthy thing is really important especially in a lot of places where the gyms are shut down or it's to cold to do our normal outdoor activities. I would love something to follow and keep me motivated throughout the winter. So yes please from a Canadian weekend warrior.
KYD - Your initiative to develop health and wellness awareness in the community is spot on! My parents planned for their retirement for nearly 40 years and had such awesome plans. A little problem though - they both passed away within two years of my Father's retirement. I've been building for more rewarding off-time and follow your Vlog for new ideas for our Airstream and life on the road. Keep at it!
Great video. Been watching your videos for years. Never realized I was not subscribed to your channel till tonight watching this video.Your commentary is so helpful and down to earth. Thanks for keeping it real.
I love that you are offering a health and wellness challenge! I love watching you and Trish and hope that when I am full time I can stay trim and healthy as you both are. I have signed up and can't wait! Thank you both for your wonderful videos full of great information, humor, and entertainment, and now healthy support.
Thanks for the mention of Woodland Airstream! We're glad you're loving your Zip Dee Shorty Awning Pull Rod! Safe travels! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and experiencing your dreams to the fullest in 2021! Live Riveted!
Yes! Yes! I need motivation. But I'm retirement age so physically need to start slower than folks your age. When we start the challenge, can we have a scaled down version for us older folks?
I have been dealing with trying to get healthier and actually made an appointment with a dr to help me get back to the healthy me. This came at the right time. To me it's a sign. Thank you. I have signed up. You all are amazing.
I just love the three of you! I love how you are sharing your travel experiences, your life goals and the love you have for each other is fantastic! Please be safe and God bless all 3 of you!
In the winter time in the Sierra Nevada mountains, I have seen the lady bugs over a foot thick on rocks or logs. There are people who collect them release into their yards or even sell them.
When I'm planning long trips, one of my scheduled events is "Laundry". It lets me know, how much to pack for that longest stretch. And a short travel day with a facilities at the end. Saves my sanity.
If y’all are ever by the bridge again you have to go see Cathedral Falls!! Small parking lot but if you can unhook somewhere safely then you HAVE to go see this attraction!! Definitely look it up!! The drive is one of the prettiest we’ve been on!! We had friends do their wedding photos there and oh my heart!!
The difference between you guys and other you tubers, what make you so good, is that you shoeless happiness and others just focus on the negative part. Even when you show the problems it is in a nice way. By the way such great sound tract. You guys rock
Wow. Thank you for this episode. The theme of taking care of our health to continue planning/doing really hit us. Planning, planning, planning. Like we've got all the time needed to do and see everything when plans and life issues can derail "the plan"; super good reminder to pay attention. Appreciated the tips and music. Thanks to you all!
We had stopped at the same Harvest Host on October 30. The cavern tour was fun. The dog across the street that barked incessantly, not so much. We are enjoying your channel. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Yes, of course...fab, fab music. BUT! I also love the use of maps. Very cool that you always cut in the maps. It's great for our orientation and your storyline. Love the maps. AND the music. :-)
I love these "in-the-life" videos... y'all are so charming and entertaining! Thanks for doing KYD55; I was taking advantage of the pandemic to do some exercise but fell off the wagon about a month ago. It'll be good to be accountable. And I'm looking forward to a more holistic approach to ALL my health. Thankyou!!
Hey Mark Trish, and Caleb. Loves this episode like so many of your others. We have stopped many times at New River visitor center because we have family cabin (with 6 rv sites) between Buckhannon and Elkins. There is a great trail on opposite side of the river with stairs that go all the way down to the river. Beautiful country. Planning on going to the 55 challenge. Thanks. Paul and Sara from Go With the Flow Couple.
Great video! You guys need an Acuva water dispenser. You will never worry about your water again. It was a bit of a pain to install in our Airstream, but it has been SO worth it!!
I was a white water river guide on the New River. The New River Gorge Bridge is the longest single span, steel arch bridge east of the Mississippi. I worked for Wildwater Expeditions Unlimited which was the first and oldest whitewater outfitters in West By God Virginia and our trips would end just past the bridge. The third week of October, they close the bridge on "Bridge Day" for bungee jumping (at least back when I worked there). Anne Walker
My wife's family lives with in 10 minutes of that. New River Gorge. We were down there 3 times this year and in near future we're planning on moving down there. If you get down there in future just a little ways north of that bridge there is a state park campground, called summersville lake. With some sites so close to the water you can liberally walk 3 or 4 feet from your awning and walk into lake. It is beautiful there.
I LOVE NEW RIVER GORGE!! You can drive down to Fayette Station, but it would be a no go with a trailer! You should have looked up Long Point Trail. Beautiful little hike through the woods and brings you out to a point that looks out onto the bridge. You could have also done the Bridge walk. There is a platform under the bridge that spans the length. You’re in my neck of the woods 💛💙
Love me some Caleb! He is a HOOT! :) Also, thanks for the info on the Anderson levelers/chocks. Hubby is getting a set for his December birthday and Christmas gifts. And love the quote about health - so VERY true. Save travels.
We just got our 2020 Globetrotter 27. Heading to the Florida keys in February from New York. Have learned so much from your videos! Fantastic stuff, looking forward to seeing more of your adventures!
Haven’t read the other 91 comments. The flute - cover all the holes with your fingers. Uncover each hole from the bottom up to play. So lift up the finger from the bottom hole while blowing and keep other holes covered. If it squeaks there is air escaping from one of the covered holes. Then lift the next finger up (keeping bottom finger up as well). Keep working up the holes then work down the same way. Husband and I play Native American flutes and this is how they work. I have no idea why all the crap came out of that package tho!!! 😳 We really enjoy watching you guys and your travels. Thanks for sharing.
The insect your referring to is a Asian Lady Beetle. Very similar to ladybugs, except they leave an odor. Japanese beetles are bigger and a green color. Love the videos.
My wife said that was the best “dad” joke ever (Dead Sea). We are planning to stay at pipestem next year. I bet you loved all the stop lights on Route 19, have driven it many times.
Very interested in the KYD55 program. I will check it out! About the bugs...yeah... those Asian beetles are true pests. Brougjt here to 'improve' on mother nature and get tid of potatp grubs or something, if I remember correctly. They can be horrid. Dogs sometimes catch and eat them, which can be bad, because they do cause gastric problems and can be toxic for them, so please watch Charlie. My husband is actually allergic to them, so we keep vacuuming them up! Ugh.
We bought our 2020 FC 27 FBT from Woodland Airstream (Grand Rapids, MI). Great dealership, sales, service, and parts store. We live just under two hours away from them (close to Detroit) but are more than willing to travel a few extra miles to deal with them.
Great video!! A wonderful trail to see a different view of the river & the bridge is Long Point Trail. There is a lower deck overlook that is around 180 steps down & then back up! That would certainly cover a great workout for the day!! Very excited about KYD55; can’t wait to learn more!!
I have great tip to help you with your Andersen blocks! I picked up 2 rubber stair treads and we lay them below the blocks for grip. It prevents slipping and sinking, and they are thin and flexible so they store easily.
Great tips, great jokes, great laughs, great info. You guys are all just great! Love watching and never seem to get enough. I did not know there were "lady bug" looking Japanese beetles. They look very different from the Japanese beetles we have here in PA. There is an Asian Lady beetles that looks like them too. Hugs, Brenda
Love the New River area, so beautiful! I though Japanese beetles were black. We stayed at a B and B in VA once and it looked just like what you showed. We thought they were ladybugs, orange with black dots.
Lot covered this week. The big takeaway: when you have your health, you have lots of dreams available. When you don’t, you have 1 dream. Boom. Mic drop. Well said.
03/9/19 me and my husband began a whole food plant based lifestyle. In May of 2019 we began rv full time. He has lost 47 lbs and I have lost 40. We are so much more healthy. We both came off all our diabetic meds, acid reflux meds and one of my hbp meds. We feel great
KYD 55 challenge sounds very interesting! Great timing too. This is my last week of employment! Retirement baby!! Stting goals and staying active/healthy are on the top of my list.
No better time to focus on health and travel! Have you read Younger Next Year? It's on our Amazon reading list. www.amazon.com/shop/keepyourdaydream

Sorry for the comment double tap, but Caleb seems to have mastered the art of the "Silent Color Commentary". 21:21 to 26:00. Just adding to the conversation without really ever saying a word. Well done, young man. Well done. Active listening and participating in the conversation without distracting from the message. That...that is an art.
My husband and I just bought our RV a couple of months ago and last week we bought our truck. It has been a few months of preparing, but we are finally looking forward to hitting the road in January!

Sounds like exciting and fun times ahead. Enjoy your travels!
@@bruceh3786 Thanks so much! We are going to go somewhere close for our first venture out, then I have a list a mile long, lol!
Mark I heard your dead sea joke while I was eating breakfast, now I'm cleaning all the food you made me spit out lol, absolutely love the video
Just got my trailer this weekend after a year of educating myself about RVing, and some of that education came through your videos. Thank you!
So I just watched every episode from the first over the last 2 months, and I have to say, it has been a joy. Thanks you for sharing your life and thoughts with us.
Being fulltime for the last 3 years I finally broke down and bought a Berkey water filter. Now I never worry about my water source!
I've pondered about that. I'm very picky about my water.
I love my Berkey. I don’t have to carry gallons of drinking water anymore and put more plastic into the environment. The water is amazing out of the Berkey.
I couldn’t live without my travel Berkey.
Does it come apart for storing when you’re driving?
@@LoveBugXOXO It *can* break down into top and bottom sections plus lid if you want to do that.
My experience has been that people usually secure it (bungee, etc.) &/or set it in the sink.
The filtered water is in the bottom so you could just use it up (pour into travel mugs or bottles) and proceed.
*However*, depending on how long you leave the top stored, if the filters get dry, you will need to re-chaarge them the same way it is done the first time they are used.
“This river was around when the Dead Sea was just sick.”
I laughed out loud so hard 🤣
me too. Hilarious!
It took five minutes to stop laughing, and realized I had missed five minutes of the video and had to go back to see it again.
@@lynnpappas4049 🤣
I proposed to my wife on the Gorge Bridge...on bridge day 2017. Love that bridge.
You guys are like a Seinfeld episode. You make anything entertaining. Thx.
I enjoy these between the episode videos. They really do show more of the day-to-day RV life. The KYD 55 Day Exercise challenge is something I’ll need to look into. Not getting any younger and I need to shed some pounds.
Traveling alone isn't the easiest but there are so many people who are just Good Folks! Always ready to help. Thanks Leach family!
Commentary "Caleb" is a blast even when it's not expected.... always keep my eyes peeled for a quirk and laugh. Talk about living in the moment !!
I like that," Make time for your health or make time for your sickness!"

Great episode. We love them all but, we especially enjoy the real life feel in these types of videos.
Every Summer we drive our motorcycles down under the new bridge and cross over the old river bridge. Makes for a great view and lots of twists.

New River Gorge Bridge Festival, was held every October. People came from all around the world to jump off that bridge. It was really exciting to see. The Northbound lane was blocked to traffic. White water rafting is popular in this area.

Yep. I've caught on to that as well. :-)
He is one funny kid!
@@dennislane7949 Funny, yes. But, looks aren't everything. 🤣 Did you see the revenge episode where Marc flipped the script on him?
You never want your videos to end.

We travel to Pipestem State Park all the time and really enjoy the 15 min drive from the state park to the town of Hinton / Bellepoint to float the New River on the other side of the Bluestone Dam.

Ah, Pipestem. What a beautiful park. Stayed there YEARS ago in our pop-up. There was a free Bluegrass concert at the amphitheater one evening and it started to rain. There were only 12 or so attendees, so the band invited everyone up on the covered stage and we all danced and clogged to the tunes. What fun!

KYD - Your initiative to develop health and wellness awareness in the community is spot on! My parents planned for their retirement for nearly 40 years and had such awesome plans. A little problem though - they both passed away within two years of my Father's retirement. I've been building for more rewarding off-time and follow your Vlog for new ideas for our Airstream and life on the road. Keep at it!
Great video. Been watching your videos for years. Never realized I was not subscribed to your channel till tonight watching this video.Your commentary is so helpful and down to earth. Thanks for keeping it real.
I love that you are offering a health and wellness challenge! I love watching you and Trish and hope that when I am full time I can stay trim and healthy as you both are. I have signed up and can't wait! Thank you both for your wonderful videos full of great information, humor, and entertainment, and now healthy support.
Your enthusiasm and your generosity of spirit is very uplifting. Thank you for doing this!
Omg! Love you guys! Had to press pause to sign up for KYD55. 100% committed! Let’s do this all!
Thanks for the mention of Woodland Airstream! We're glad you're loving your Zip Dee Shorty Awning Pull Rod! Safe travels! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and experiencing your dreams to the fullest in 2021! Live Riveted!
Yes! Yes! I need motivation. But I'm retirement age so physically need to start slower than folks your age. When we start the challenge, can we have a scaled down version for us older folks?
Yes - take care of each other. And, be aware. Good tips for a solo female traveler. Love all your videos.
Love this idea of exercise together.
I have been dealing with trying to get healthier and actually made an appointment with a dr to help me get back to the healthy me. This came at the right time. To me it's a sign. Thank you. I have signed up. You all are amazing.

I am all for it. I am a personal trainer and love going Camping. Can’t wait to try it out. Love this content. Keep it flowing.
You guys are great and yes a little kindness is what we all need
Wow. Thank you for this episode. The theme of taking care of our health to continue planning/doing really hit us. Planning, planning, planning. Like we've got all the time needed to do and see everything when plans and life issues can derail "the plan"; super good reminder to pay attention. Appreciated the tips and music. Thanks to you all!
during the summers they have inflatables on the water, The whole family had a blast. Highly recommend pipestem, It's good hiking as well.
We had stopped at the same Harvest Host on October 30. The cavern tour was fun. The dog across the street that barked incessantly, not so much.
We are enjoying your channel.
Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Your videos are like a warm glass of milk before bed. Very soothing. Thanks for all your work.
Yes, of course...fab, fab music. BUT! I also love the use of maps. Very cool that you always cut in the maps. It's great for our orientation and your storyline. Love the maps. AND the music. :-)
I love these "in-the-life" videos... y'all are so charming and entertaining!
Thanks for doing KYD55; I was taking advantage of the pandemic to do some exercise but fell off the wagon about a month ago. It'll be good to be accountable. And I'm looking forward to a more holistic approach to ALL my health. Thankyou!!
Hey Mark Trish, and Caleb. Loves this episode like so many of your others. We have stopped many times at New River visitor center because we have family cabin (with 6 rv sites) between Buckhannon and Elkins. There is a great trail on opposite side of the river with stairs that go all the way down to the river. Beautiful country. Planning on going to the 55 challenge. Thanks. Paul and Sara from Go With the Flow Couple.
Yes, Arrowhead Bike Farm is awesome. I randomly spent two nights in Fayetteville last year. There’s also a great brewery in the area, Free Folk!
Great video! You guys need an Acuva water dispenser. You will never worry about your water again. It was a bit of a pain to install in our Airstream, but it has been SO worth it!!
We love going to Anchor Down on Douglas Lake. They do a great job of taking care of the campground.
As Roadtreker thanks for watching out for fellow RVers🙂
YES!!! I am a nurse who is also a coach and I absolutely LOVE this idea!
Heat seaters. And the flute may work by blowing across the first hole, holding it sideways and to the left. Good luck 😃
I was a white water river guide on the New River. The New River Gorge Bridge is the longest single span, steel arch bridge east of the Mississippi. I worked for Wildwater Expeditions Unlimited which was the first and oldest whitewater outfitters in West By God Virginia and our trips would end just past the bridge. The third week of October, they close the bridge on "Bridge Day" for bungee jumping (at least back when I worked there). Anne Walker
I 💛 your family. “All I need is water in and water out. That’s all I need.” Likewise, Trish! Men are remarkable and mysterious creatures.
My wife's family lives with in 10 minutes of that. New River Gorge. We were down there 3 times this year and in near future we're planning on moving down there.
If you get down there in future just a little ways north of that bridge there is a state park campground, called summersville lake. With some sites so close to the water you can liberally walk 3 or 4 feet from your awning and walk into lake. It is beautiful there.
I'm liking the popsocket holder in the kitchen.
I LOVE NEW RIVER GORGE!! You can drive down to Fayette Station, but it would be a no go with a trailer! You should have looked up Long Point Trail. Beautiful little hike through the woods and brings you out to a point that looks out onto the bridge. You could have also done the Bridge walk. There is a platform under the bridge that spans the length. You’re in my neck of the woods 💛💙
Love this one...I love it when you all are sharing your enjoyment of the outdoors.
Love me some Caleb! He is a HOOT! :) Also, thanks for the info on the Anderson levelers/chocks. Hubby is getting a set for his December birthday and Christmas gifts. And love the quote about health - so VERY true. Save travels.
We just got our 2020 Globetrotter 27. Heading to the Florida keys in February from New York. Have learned so much from your videos! Fantastic stuff, looking forward to seeing more of your adventures!
Haven’t read the other 91 comments. The flute - cover all the holes with your fingers. Uncover each hole from the bottom up to play. So lift up the finger from the bottom hole while blowing and keep other holes covered. If it squeaks there is air escaping from one of the covered holes. Then lift the next finger up (keeping bottom finger up as well). Keep working up the holes then work down the same way.
Husband and I play Native American flutes and this is how they work.
I have no idea why all the crap came out of that package tho!!! 😳
We really enjoy watching you guys and your travels. Thanks for sharing.
The insect your referring to is a Asian Lady Beetle. Very similar to ladybugs, except they leave an odor. Japanese beetles are bigger and a green color. Love the videos.
So glad to see you spending a little time in WV!
My wife said that was the best “dad” joke ever (Dead Sea). We are planning to stay at pipestem next year. I bet you loved all the stop lights on Route 19, have driven it many times.
Those lights are crazy. Like Hwy 27 in central Florida.
Very interested in the KYD55 program. I will check it out! About the bugs...yeah... those Asian beetles are true pests. Brougjt here to 'improve' on mother nature and get tid of potatp grubs or something, if I remember correctly. They can be horrid. Dogs sometimes catch and eat them, which can be bad, because they do cause gastric problems and can be toxic for them, so please watch Charlie. My husband is actually allergic to them, so we keep vacuuming them up! Ugh.
You are so correct on having your health. So good to take care of yourself.
We bought our 2020 FC 27 FBT from Woodland Airstream (Grand Rapids, MI). Great dealership, sales, service, and parts store. We live just under two hours away from them (close to Detroit) but are more than willing to travel a few extra miles to deal with them.
Great video!! A wonderful trail to see a different view of the river & the bridge is Long Point Trail. There is a lower deck overlook that is around 180 steps down & then back up! That would certainly cover a great workout for the day!! Very excited about KYD55; can’t wait to learn more!!
Crossing the river the old way and driving down and then up is amazing!
Is there a route you recommend -- starting from route # location?
I have great tip to help you with your Andersen blocks! I picked up 2 rubber stair treads and we lay them below the blocks for grip. It prevents slipping and sinking, and they are thin and flexible so they store easily.
Great tips, great jokes, great laughs, great info. You guys are all just great! Love watching and never seem to get enough. I did not know there were "lady bug" looking Japanese beetles. They look very different from the Japanese beetles we have here in PA. There is an Asian Lady beetles that looks like them too. Hugs, Brenda
Omg! That park job was epic!
Love the New River area, so beautiful! I though Japanese beetles were black. We stayed at a B and B in VA once and it looked just like what you showed. We thought they were ladybugs, orange with black dots.
Pipestem is a gorgeous park, we've camped there many times.🙂 your music is always on point. ❤🙏
