Sometimes we go to states just to meet friends and family. We don't want to get caught in crazy hot weather so we plan extra to miss the heat. This year we are thinking about going to Colorado (high in elevation) to escape those temperatures during the summer. We have big plans to go to Alaska and Baja someday. 😎

I cringe when you through the ball and on your next click you show a nasty cactus. I fear for Roddle. But I also know how much you take care of him. Thanks for showing us a rainy day in van life. I love it.

@oneadVANtureatatime 3 года назад

The first year Roodle stepped on every cactus! 😂This year he has not stepped on one yet, we are very proud of him. 😀

@oneadVANtureatatime 3 года назад

I might add he was wearing his shoes the first two years because he couldn’t be trusted to not step on cactus. So no cactus in his feet!

@Scrambler85 3 года назад

Great video, great editing 👍 And always a good story to the video. So question for the day is if you still had your jeep and your van was capable of towing it would it be worth the effort to have it with you 🤔

@oneadVANtureatatime 3 года назад

Yes, for sure, and definitely! 😂😂 We were just in Big Bend National Park and they have many 4 wheel drive routes with primitive campsites next to the Rio Grande river. We both were missing our Jeep. This is just one of many examples. Take your Jeep with you! 😂

@Scrambler85 3 года назад

@@oneadVANtureatatime thanks, that's a 3 thumbs up answer. I think I want to go more toward overlanding than rock crawling in the future. Fixing destroyed drive trains is not as much fun as it use to be. I'm thinking park the van in a safe place and take the jeep on trips that last a day or two.

I’m so happy to have come across your channel. I’ve been binge watching for the past several days as your adventures are jam pack full of wonderful content, skilled photography, beautiful picturesque off the beaten path gems and necessary info to make one’s trip truly eventful. I also enjoy both of yours friendly and calm demeanor along with your adorable Roodle and his little jingle. 🎶 I’ve yet to financially support anyone’s channel; however, I’m seriously considering yours. My major concern is someone hacking RU-vid putting my personal info at risk. Could you or a current patron share the safety protocol for monthly contributions? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi Linda! We are honored you like our channel and thank you for all the wonderful words. We love this lifestyle and enjoy sharing the nature we find along the way.

Do y'all find that drone flying is becoming more & more restrictive?

@oneadVANtureatatime 3 года назад

Yes! The farther east we go the harder it is to get into the air as well. Plus every software update is new areas that are closed.

@jimgbf 3 года назад

@@oneadVANtureatatime How do you stay so keenly aware of the specific restrictions?

@oneadVANtureatatime 3 года назад

@@jimgbf we use a app called Kittyhawk and Dave pulls up air nautical charts to look at! Although flying areas are more restrictive I feel like we have a better sense of where we can fly and better tools help us fly responsibly because Dave has his drone pilots license😃 And sometimes you get that feeling I don’t think you can fly here.... apps have been wrong and we double check flying locations with air nautical maps. Very technical answer I hope that helps. Feel free to ask more questions if needed.

What's your secret to keeping the red soil and mud from entering your van? Also, what's up with that RV leveling at 9:25? Great video as always.

@dustyfeller 3 года назад

My guess: Solar panel orientation or to shed rain and snow.

@WonderousLyfe 3 года назад

Hi there. About the rig leveling at 9:25, it was raining pretty heavily so we decided to put one side of our rig, “Satch” the Bigfoot camper, on leveling blocks to allow the rain to drain on one side. It looks a little more dramatic on the footage because of the GoPro lens, but it was just a little tip 😊 Caroline
