Should do a day in the life of work camping. Fixing the equipment would be interesting.

It was great to see Roe's smiling face! You two look very happy there. I love hearing the wind through the pine trees. It makes me want to get outside and just reminds me of so many peaceful places we've camped. Hope you guys have a wonderful summer there!

Wonderful news, David! I’m really looking forward to seeing how your summer goes, and I’m excited about your new videos. I know you and Roe will do an excellent job for the camp owner.

Most excellent. They are very fortunate to have such muti-talented young folk. Way to go, Kiddos.

Didn't Roe have a remote job?

My wife and I did the same thing at Pisgah National Forest- Davidson River Campground for 1 1/2 years (served as hosts). Good luck to you both. Good to see your still at this. We miss seeing you guys on here. ❤❤

This is so cool! Can you guys make some videos all year long on exploring the park and other similar things? I’d watch that all day long along with all your other content! lol

We went from a small travel trailer to a 31' 5th wheel and it's made traveling for six months much, much better. We bought the Cougar 27SGS because it has access to the bedroom and bath with the slides in. We put in solar ourselves and boondock whenever possible. I think you two will love it!

Don't forget Texas and Florida for the winters !! We love to work kamp at the state parks!

work camping AKA cleaning out shit houses all day long.....Enjoy!

OMG! Loved this video and I am so excited for you two and for the news about buying a 5th wheel!! Miss yall so much! Can't wait to watch all the videos about your work camping experience!

Think outside the box. My boyfriend has a CDL, so his workcamps with different shuttle companies. A lot of times, the company has a connection with a camp ground.

What do they pay you? What’s the average pay for work camping?

Nice looking campground. Love the pines 🌲. We may work camp when I retire in 2 years, I’m not opposed to it but it depends on the money really. My thought with work camping is on days off we can see more of an area at a detailed level. Good luck on maybe getting a different Rv 👍🏼

Wow I’m happy for you. Roe looks happy, so do you. We may be seeing you this fall. We are heading to glacier, then down to Yellowstone. This resort sounds like a great place to stay. Checking prices now.

David and Roe, we are really excited to hear about this adventure. Thanks for the update. PS we thought we were doing good with boondocking when we were in a campground only 7 days all last year, but dang.... 2019. You guys are the boondocking OGs.... 8)

Just started my first camp hosting job as well in April! It's a great gig to get paid, see different parts of the country, and travel on months off. Hope to see you guys out there!

We sold our Arctic Fox 26X TT in '18 to buy a AF 27-5L fifth wheel. It's just under 30' so very manageable, and also 4-season insulated.

Hey, that campground looks incredibly peaceful! I’ve always been curious about how work camping really works out, so it’ll be great to get the inside scoop from you. That 5th wheel looks fantastic-spacious yet not overly large. We have a 40' 5th wheel, and moving it is always a drama. I keep telling my wife that I’d like to downsize someday, but she disagrees since she’s not the one doing the towing or maneuvering. Anyway, great video! Looking forward to seeing how this journey unfolds!

Great to hear you guys are workcamping. I'm currently up in Mammoth/Gardiner working for Yellowstone Lodges. I think you guys will really enjoy working here. It's great being able to have so much time to explore the park. Maybe some time we will happen to see each other out here. Hope you enjoy your summer.

Why didnt you just double down on youtube when you were hot, no need to work camp then. Larry

Man you ain't lying about the hard work. I grew up around camp grounds and helped out once in a while.

Just got back from Yellowstone, stayed in the area for two weeks and camped at Baker Hole nearby and at another campground on Hebgen Lake. You're going to have a great time. I actually lived in that area for 12 years and worked in the Park year-round. Work camping in Minnesota the last 2 years but might consider going back to Montana.

How is the AT&T service there? How about Verizon? Thx guys

Been workamping for 9 years as fulltime. Work six months off six months Great way to see our country.

Great news! Thanks for sharing! Maybe the other couples and owner would share their stories with you on RU-vid!!!

Haven’t seen yall in a while. Watching now! 🎉

Loved this video, David. This has renewed my interest in work camping for the future. We stayed near Yellowstone a year ago but didn’t know about this place. Great ideas and I look forward to watching your journey this summer. Super excited too about your possible move from 2 RVs down to the one 5th wheel too. All sounds great!

Nice video.. my wife and I have been throwing around this camp work idea for a while. We have just been looking at how to manage it financially with the pay that is offered. Personal question.. you don’t have to answer… but is income from your camp work your only source of income? If not, how are you supplementing to make your lifestyle possible. I ask a lot of travelers this question because I’m just genuinely interested. Hope you guys are having a great summer!

What are you doing for non-government health insurance during your 6 months off? I presume health insurance is provided with the work camp employment?

That sounds like an awesome thing to do, and at an awesome place! Congrats!

Great to see Roe again!

Good video. What do you have for law enforcement support? My brother was a sheriff's deputy in Wyoming and always enjoyed the campground patrol (even though it meant a lot of after hours calls). He did both Nat'l Forrest and private campgrounds. He has lots of history of coming out to a campground to set some rowdy campers straight, to having those campers become model campers in the campground (mainly from his approach of coming down hard on the offenders yet, giving them the opportunity to redeem themselves unofficially...no citations). On another note, when my parents retired, they did a winter in a RV park in Arizona. Mom was disabled, and many days all she wanted to do is sit outside and enjoy the warm weather. Dad on the other hand, was a kind of individual who always had to stay busy. He ended up helping the RV park owner almost every day on maintenance tasks, just to stay busy. When Mom and Dad left the RV park at the end of winter, the owner refunded all their fees, because of all the work Dad did for the owner. Cool owner! Hope this gig works out well for you in the long run!

Congratulations on y'all's new gig! 🎉 Good to see the both of you! Nice to see a couple living the dream.

Yes, just say no to cold in Winter. Arizona works.🕊

We are in Yellowstone ... 9ver at West Yellowstone KOA

I was literally thinking about you guys the other day I miss the live streams and chatting with you both during you travels I'm glad you both are doing well. love you guys stay safe and stay blessed!

We workamped at Cooke City last summer. It was nice being near the Lamar valley. Also be sure and take your vehicle (not your RV) through the Beartooth Pass. Easily surpasses the million dollar highway in Colorado.

I love how you guys are always willing to try different avenues to reach your goals. I'm looking forward to seeing your experiences. It's all about the journey! Thx for sharing.

Love you guys, but the part about women doing the expected cleaning jobs probably isn’t going to go over well.

We just visitors Yellowstone for a week earlier this month! It was so beautiful and that weather was nice! What are the hours and pay?

whohoo welcome to the workamping club. glad to see ya'll do what we do as well

Great video. Just curious of how you will store the supplies in the truck topper after removing it for the 5th wheel. I’ll definitely be staying tuned in.

Good video. I'm happy you are trying something new. Can't wait for your next video.

What a fun and interesting update!! It's great that you are trying new things! Beautiful campground! Wish I could visit. Have a fun and memorable summer of 2024! Colette in Las Vegas ❤️

Very informative. Thanks

It looks like you have new adventures ahead of you 😊👍

We stayed in that campground in fall 2020 during our last trip to Yellowstone. Other than the rough dirt road it was great.

So good to see you kids still living the dream. I'm still running the roads but hopefully for only 2 more years. If things go well I hope to start my own RV resort.

Love your videos, the information and how you present them. I would love to camp there sometime.

Love this for you guys ❤ Looking forward to keeping up on your new adventures.

So how did you find that campground?

A fifth wheel together? You're going to need a bigger truck.

How do you deal with campgrounds reporting the total annual value of your RV site on your W-2? For example, if you stayed 16 weeks and the site would have rented for $500 per week, at the beginning of the next year you will receive a w-2 from that campground which will include your total hourly earnings PLUS $8000 income for the fringe benefit of site? (16 weeks x $500 per week site rent free)

That's a great gig! Good luck to you both

How to get information for working hosts

Sounds fun. I’ve looked into this type of work. So many want a “couple” and “if” they pay it is often Pennie’s. I’m glad you’ve found one that lets you keep both campers and pays you for your service!

Keep up the videos we miss you

Looking good! Nice to see you both

Sounds like a win win for sure

Roe, love the smile, whatever you're doing, keep doing it. Girl, you look INCREDIBLE!

Cheers my friends!

How exciting! I'm glad for you both! The camp work sounds like hard work but gratifying! I think your 5th wheel idea is fantastic, hope it works out!!!

How wonderful, as we just left Yellowstone last week, and used the route past Hebgen Lake David! Beautiful indeed, and the road alongside the lake is very scenic! We live in western Canada, but us and two other couples, all with our RV's travelled over to tour southern South Dakota, saw much of the history of the area, then moved over to Yellowstone for a week, staying in West Yellowstone. Such a great idea for you two, as work-camping will probably fit your expertise very well, and you'll get to socialize with numerous campers over the months you'll be there! Hope to see more video's of the area, and your excursions into Yellowstone! Also, 'if' you talk to the owner, and get the ok, I'd love to hear some of her stories that you mentioned David!

If you haven’t already, be sure to do the Lone Star Geyser hike. Totally worth it. Our eldest lives and works in West Yellowstone. She loves it.

Cool dude! I mean Roe and David, we did that at a local park here in Cali! Decade ago. When we just got together. ♥️✌️

Hi David & Ro, Thank you for the video and update. I will be looking forward to the next one.

Congrats on the workamper jobs. Look forward to posts during your stay. Yellowstone and Grand Tetons are so pretty. Thanks for sharing.

So happy for y’all! Looks like the perfect gig for you two!

Nice! We wanted to Workcamp but it was hard for us to commit to leaving our remote jobs. We both kind of said if we get fired, that was our plan, but it never happened. After four years on the road, our rig got hit by a freak tidal wave, so we never got the chance to try it. It honestly looks really fun!

How cool, first time heard about work camping sounds like fun to me.

My aunt and uncle did work camping in Wyoming after they retired. They would come back home to Iowa in the off months and clean a church to keep them busy. They have both passed on, but I know they loved it.

Glad to hear you guys found some good income that fits your lifestyle! I would love to do the same someday! Couldn't think of a better place to spend the summer. : )

Hi David, be very careful buying a new RV. The RV industry is still putting out junk. I know you you'll go through it with a find tooth comb.😊

Sounds good. Make some vids showing what you do if possible!

Any links for work camping in south Texas San Antonio Concan area

Good luck with the new gig both of you. Also selling your rigs as well.

I enjoyed your video, camping again.

Anything in west Yellowstone we went to the grocery store ikes it was not good. Have you gone up to ennis it has a great grocery store 😋

Is there a reason we really never hear the wife on camera anymore?

Was the required hours for both of you or combined hours?

you two are probably some of the most honest and hard workers that she's had so I hope she pays you well stay cool

i want to go that. just don't have a clue on how to do it. plus. it is just me

So glad to see both of you are happy. Good to see.

Great to hear from you! Might stop by!

Is that campground motorcycle accessible with a big touring bike? Thank you. Good video!!

So cool for you guys !!

😊😊

“Sweet old lady”, seriously!!
