Happy belated birthday, Tara!🎈It's all downhill from here. I'm a whopping ten years older, so I know. I'm glad 2c/u back in ur big rig. When Daddy said to sit, Daisy did! Impressive👋🤓Chad was truly sorry about leaving his wallet behind and took full responsibility 😉The view at the place where you stayed was top-notch!
Happy and Blessed Birthday, Tara! On the issue of missing the ferry the 1st time, dark clouds have silver linings. That Long Beach boarding and sailing was for you. Continued safe and happy travels. 💙🤍❤️🙏🏾
Wow, Cool vintage trailer! That is pretty deep storage. Oh my. That is a lot of fog! OOOHHH NOO! These things happen to all of us. Glad you could have a plan B. Happy day you were born Tara! 🥳 - Jim & Michelle
Happy Birthday Tara. 🎉 I lived in Lake Elsinore for nearly ten years. The Ortega Highway is always a gamble on traffic or an accident. It’s a great ride, though on a clear day. Never stayed in the park but launched from the docks plenty of times. Nice nostalgic views of passing through the town. Thanks!
Love y’all’s videos!! Y’all remind me of me and my husband so much! 55 years of marriage! I love the relationship between you two!! Y’all are so funny and honest and real!we love y’all!! Keep up the good work! Doug & Doris Chattanooga Tennessee!! & Dee Dee our little camper!! Safe travels to y’all!
Well, what a milestone birthday. Happy belated birthday ❤ Tara. Regardless of who, what , mistakes made, it all worked out . That is the important part. That looks like a very pretty place. Glad it all worked out for y'all. I hope y'alls cabin is all ok after the remnants of the hurricane went through and hoping y'all were gone when it went through. God bless y'all and stay safe on your travels.
Oh boy you got to experience the Ortega Highway. So many accidents happen on it. Glad you made it with minimal delay. Would have been cool to run into you both while you were out our way. 😁
Welcome to Cal. Guys. Hope you had fun for Tara's birthday. Looks like allot of fun on Catalina. Thanks again for a great video. hope you both have continued safe travels.
Thank you for posting this. I need to go there. Utah is not that far, and I haven't been there since I was little. Now that I'm older and retired and alone now I need to start doing some things on my own. I have not had time to watch your channel in months, so I have a lot of catching up to do. My wife was very sick and I lost her on the first of September. Now I need to find my new normal. One thing is to travel. So again, thank you for posting this as it has given me an idea for a trip. Take care you two. And Tara happy 50th.
🎉Fantastic, Happy Birthday, Never been to those places, love the place you are staying at. Links? And can’t tell you how many times I have left something behind, felt the embarrassment 😅 looking forward to more of this adventure. Tara, you look beautiful and when you dress up to go out I’m sure Chad is saying WOW. Congratulations to you both, safe travels 😎
Chad; hey! Two things came to mind when you were trying to reach your luggage. 1). Buy a Grab Stick ( some are longer than others), & 2). Build a flat mini tray with a rope puller, to pull those boxes/suitcases up towards you!!
Lake EL-sin-oar (Elsinore). I was living in a high rise waterfront apartment building in downtown Seattle when I turned 50 (2004), working for a small 5-person architectural firm. Everyone from my work plus about 5 of my non-work buddies and a couple of my work-related friends all pooled together to buy a block of tickets right behind the Mariner's dugout at Safeco Field to watch the Mariners play the NY Yankees (boo-hiss). It was a little windy and chilly (early May in Seattle), but otherwise a clear and sunny day, an afternoon game, that went into extra innings. Seattle lost the game, boo-hoo, but I learned that a few days later, as a bunch of us left the game at the top of the 10th inning and went drinking in Seattle's Stadium District. The structural engineer who was one of our group and who had brought his son (and who was also a huge baseball fan) stayed to the end of the game and his son actually was able to snag a fly ball pop-up in the 11th inning, kinda wish I'd stuck around to see that, but on the other hand, Andy (the engineer) and his son had been sitting directly behind me, and as I did not have or bring a glove to the game, there's a good chance I'd have been beaned by the ball had I stayed (especially in the 11th inning, I don't think any of us who left in the 10th inning were still totally sober, hahaha, but we were walking, so no error, no foul). And while I had purchased a semi-generic Mariners jacket a year or so earlier, as a birthday gift to myself, a week or so before my birthday I had also bought myself an official MLB Mariners team jacket, a Mariners team jersey, as well as a pair of kinda funky Mariners earrings with the team logo. One of the buddies I'd invited had a fairly large Mariners flag that she waved to help keep the group together as we walked from my apartment down to the stadium (about 12 blocks)...we were quite the spectacle, hahaha. It was a great birthday, appropriate for turning 1/2 a century, a day I will never forget. I hope your 50th was as enjoyable and memorable and Happy Birthday!
Happy Half a century birthday Tara...extremely belated! Cool adventure, reminds me of the old 20000 leagues under the sea ride at Disney world growing up as a kid!
Hey, Happy Birthday🎉 Catalina the UFOer's would tell you there a base south-west of it underwater LOL they see a lot of them around there like the tic-tac ones. 😊
Chad, that hwy 62 from Yucca Valley down the hill to the 10 freeway is STEEP and if I recall, the lanes aren't normal width, a little narrow. We travel to Havasu often and take the hwy 177 toward Desert Center to the 10 freeway to avoid that plus its a smoother drive. Both routes get you there...There's a huge solar farm in Desert Center too. Nice nest there in Catalina you folks had. Lots of things to do there...hope you got to have a Buffalo Burger while there.
Chad; Just as a note, we have a copy of our drivers license and passport hidden inside of the suit cases. This worked out well when I lost my wallet at Disney World.
We took the 5th wheel from Cape May N.J. to Lewes De. Had to board two hours before high tide (7 am) became we have low clearance and the height is 13’4” they have sensors to check the height. It’s a hour and a half ride 17 miles. Cheaper than driving 177 miles and paying tolls.
I am surprised your airtag did not alert you before you went too far, my airtag sends a notice within 2-blocks of where I left it. Glad it worked out & happy birthday.
Wow, what a great video! My wife and I go to Catalina several times a year and stay in one of the hotels. Where did you find that place you stayed? It looked perfect!
Omg. Next time you come to The LA area please message us. Lake Elsinore to Dana Point. Yikes! Then to Long Beach. Yikes! LA traffic is terrible almost anytime of the day.
I realize this question is out of sequence, but are you and your family OK in and around your cabin after Helene? Thinking the best for everyone in that area.
Um, why do you have so many foam pads in the attic? LOL. That fog is scary. We get it here too and it is no fun. So sorry you had such troubles. Everyone forgets their wallet or purse or phone sometimes. The California coast is spectacular and I miss it.
Happy belated BD 🍭🎂. Half a century young lol. What the heck is this California inspection station? Does everyone have to go through it? n what r they inspecting for? 🍻
I was pleasantly surprised to see that too. I have a dog the size of daisy, did the BC ferry here in canada last year, n dogs not allowed on upper decks they have to stay in vehicles even on the under lower decks, so i kept my dog in a carrying bag to go on the upper decks basically concealing her, but what a pain in the arse they make it! No way can i leave her in a vehicle for couple hours by herself n they don't allow u to stay in your vehicle either 🙄. 🍻
hey guys that place looks amazing! Chad i recently bought the Dewalt tire inflator after I saw it would work on 5th wheel high pressure.. I either got a lemon or something because as soon as I hit "play" it shuts down immediately with a code on the screen, something like OL ..was wondering if you have experienced anything like this.. thx man , safe travels
I have the same inflator. I think that's a battery code. Are you sure your battery is charged & fully seated. If not, hopefully you have time to return.
@meandthelady9141 Take the unit apart. In it you will see a fan. Clean any dust or grime on or around it, as well as the bearing. OL is overload meaning it's getting to much physical resistance when starting and needs those parts cleaned.
Sorry, you are a sailor. You are required to produce your military ID upon demand. After 21 years of Naval Service, my ID is in my wallet, and my wallet is in my pocket. If it ain't there, I don't feel dressed. Sheesh...
