They remind me of my mother, she could stretch a dollar further than most people. Wish I would have paid more attention and learned a few things from her.
@@jeffmcgrath2202You can’t compare David and Sondra with your coworker that steals stuff. David and Sondra have never stolen anything that I am aware of.
It's pretty funny. Way back... we had every intention of getting a mattress but couldn't find one we liked and ran out of time. Did this as a stop gap... but really like it. Actually it's super comfy with the foam topper.
If you guys ever travel through central Utah on I-15, please stay at my daughter's RV park in Nephi, Utah. It's called Rollin' Home RV Park and the sites are large and clean. Her name is Kalli and she would love to have you! She has a great little restaurant on site as well. We love watching your RU-vid channel!
Did you visit old Vegas on Fremont Street? Look at the ceiling as you walk down the street. Visuals are amazing. You can also zip line down Fremont Street.
Been there done that with an HDT. Downsizing to a smaller rig sure made sense and a lot less stressful travel for us. A 35 foot class A motorhome pulling our SMART 453 makes our life much much easier. Would never go back to being 65’ long.
Hey, I completely understand. There are times... but on the whole we are so much more comfortable in this setup. For us, an HDT and 73 feet is worth it. Appreciate your comments. Thanks
Curiosity is getting the best of me. Do you actually scrapbook and the truest sense of the fashion, bullet journal, or art journal. Or are you doing all three. You have so much material I can't imagine deciding what to use and what not to use and and how you have enough room to carry it all. I'm living vicariously through your travels and loving every minute of it take care and safe travels.
Sondra does a combination of all 3. She uses the motif for each week based on where we are going and decorates from there. She does a lot of tracking in it as well. Thanks 😄
44:02 I couldn't help but notice the pre-1st bite lick o' the lips, followed by the nodding approval with each chew. Sondra, I hope you treated yourself to a second sticker. 😊 I thoroughly enjoyed "Vegas, babyyyy!" Safe travels and see you next Thursday, God's willing.
Sondra, my heart was racing too, and I wasn’t even in the truck with you! 😂❤❤ David is a fantastic truck driver! Good job through the road construction!!
🤣😎😂👍I was wondering how many would catch that...the clip seemed to flow better in reverse...just a little something to keep everyone on their toes! thanks for watching.
Hi guys!! New subbie here. I've watched you for a couple months and thought I'd subscribed, but I guess I didn't! 😂 Love watching your adventures and you guys make it fun. Hubby and I have lived in our 42' Montana Legacy 5th wheel since 2017. We travel for 6 to 8 weeks at a time. When we're not traveling we are blessed to have a home base on our daughter's property. I also journal everyday. Gotta love the scrapbook stores!! 🥰 Thanks for bringing us along, love watching you. 💜
That's nice. Our daughter loves it when we visit and it's so nice to be on property. Appreciate your being a long time friend of the channel. Safe travels
Thanks, Lester for the comments. We enjoy RV travel so it's easy to have fun in what we do. "Vegas, baby" was fun but glad to get out of the city for a bit.
Hi from New Zealand love your rig we have been rv fans for over 30 years here in NZ we even came to the USA and purchased a dodge ram and fifth wheel got to travel many of the same places you have been too love your lifestyle and we can’t wait for your next destination regards Bill and Paulette Jackson
Thanks, Bill & Paulette. That must have been fun to RV over here for awhile. Sweet. We'd love to get to NZ one of these days. We've heard it's beautiful.
So looked like there was a major meltdown when first peaking at TT\ Las Vegas. All I saw was Sandra was out of the truck upon entering. and we didn’t see anything else until the next day. Especially learning they had to find a space for the truck to park too! I bet somebody blew a few gaskets!
😆 🤣 actually, there wasn't any more video because it went really smooth. I drove around the block and pulled in to the site. We thought it might be tricky but we got lucky. I didn't want to put too much boring footage of just driving in to the site. Thanks
David, I love saying “Vegas Baby” too!!❤❤😂😂. Follow that car in front of you to free parking!!🅿️. Y’all are sooooo much fun!!😂 Thanks for the long video!! Thank you!
Love your Texas shirt! I grew up near Alice where the second What-A- Burger was built. None of had seen anything like it . Couple of my friends could down twoI' doubles on the lunch break!! I'm always suprised to see a store far from home. It's great to see the best burger in the world spread it's wings and fly! Really enjoy your videos, keep em coming!!
some of us followers are from Canada and when you say ' David's specialty gummie bears that have a different connotation because cannabis is legal here! Love Vegas, glad you had fun.
Thanks for the compliment... we had not driven a semi-truck before we retired... except once for about 10 minutes to see if it was possible. On the road experience!
We are here in Vegas ending a two week stay -We stay at Sam’s Town KOA on the Boulder HWY -we had an HDT right next to us with smart car and a Full House 5th wheel-We had to move to the Oasis RV Resort and drove our Class A through the strip -However, we were TERRIFIED 🤣 We made it but didn’t enjoy that drive like you did 😂-Nice job ⭐️🚌🇺🇸🎉
Hey Mary, we know that area well off Boulder since the Thousand Trails is just down the road from Sam's Town. Oasis RV looks really nice and we hope you enjoy your stay there. Gets you on the other side of town too! Thanks for watching and appreciate your comment.
Hey!! You guys are in my town!!! You're gonna have some real "fun" getting that big a rig into what Thousand Trails in Las Vegas calls a campground... Good Luck!!!
@KurtWilliamCobb oohhh... 😆 🤣 it was a design that says "Las Vegas is the 9th Hawaiian Island" with a design of the island chain and incorporating poker chips as part of the islands. It was funny because being from Hawaii I never understood the reason why so many go to Vegas to live.
Thank you for watching the channel. We're excited to be able to share our experiences with everyone and to give back to the RV community. Glad to have you along on the journey.
Agree about Vegas. I don’t drink smoke or gamble either. But I have to admit when forced to be there, there is an energy that exists. It is in the air. I like you, enjoy the beautiful restaurants and then seeing a show at night. The last visit I was there for a week for a wedding. Every night a dinner was planned and hosted for 60. So it was quite fun, with show tickets for every other night. All hosted. It was a small group of us from all over the US. But I have never been to a week long party like that in my life. All I paid for was hotel and plane ride. So quite the week! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That was a very nice week...with relatively little cost. I'll bet that was really nice with everyone there and being able to enjoy the city. Great fun and glad you could participate. Appreciate your comments and having you along on the journey. See you next week.
a scrapbook store, oh the horror! incredible driving at the detour!! take y'all to the habit for a santa barbara char burger, cheese, guacamole on sourdough bread. Great to hear about the water softner systems you have on the 5th wheel. How do you enjoy giordarno's Pizza?
Wow, David you are good. I've spotted for truckers on my job and I thought they were the best. I even had them backing around a tunnel to get into their spot. I applauded you!!!
Thank you so much; however, I do not place myself into that realm of "parking proficiency" as you refer to with the truckers you assisted but, again, thank you for even putting me into that same sentence. Appreciate your comment and watching the channel.
I look forward to your videos each week!! You both are such a blessing!!! I started watching you when you were getting ready for the Alaska trip..I had so much fun with y'all on that trip!
This was a fun travel vlog showing me a different side of Vegas. I enjoyed seeing what you visited and many things we didn’t see when we hit the town for one day. It’s always entertaining to watch the 2 of you. Thanks for taking us along. See you next week … somewhere.
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. If it weren’t for you, some of us wouldn’t get to see the states the way you share. It’s such a great feeling to be able to share your journey. God bless and He does lead the way if we obey! Safe travels we will see you on the next journey.🙏
you know that man of yours is one amazing driver why did you ever doubt him lol...y'all are brave going places I would not even take our car to!! But as they always say enjoy the trip to the destination! Certainly never boring...Davids head has got to be ready to pop...this is the closest I will ever get to Vegas not on my Bucket LIST ....but thank you for sharing it with us...
Hi guys... Thank you for the video... Tight campground.. you did good getting in... Probably was a nightmare getting out.... Vegas sure has changed since we were there in 06... However it has definitely changed since 1970.. First time.... Totally understand about whataburger... Thanks for the video... you guys stay safe.. looking forward to the next one...J&A2ofus
Glad you enjoyed it, J&A...We can only assume you were in your "traditional comfy viewing spot" and Vegas has changed A LOT! It's amazing in just the 20 years that we have been visiting off and on how much has changed. Wow! Neat place to visit for a week. Thanks for watching. Safe Travels to you.
wow, what happened? Suddenly traffic went backwards! lol... love your videos. and I am jealous. drove Bigg Riggs for 25 years all over Europe and Scandinavia. best wishes from Norway.
I’m not a huge Vegas person don’t like to gamble much or drink much that is kind of fun seeing the hotels and all the action and maybe a show or two. The summertime is the worst, so crowded & Hot. The spring and fall. Great now. want to go out and visit again lol
Incredible reversing skills yet again. Have to say I was expecting a forklift to follow Sondra out of the scrap store. I'm dying to get up to Denis Kansas and see the guys. Happy belated birthday, Sondra. Safe travels
Wow, you guys are brave we have travel to Vegas in our long bed CC duramax with our Jayco North Point 310RLTS but our is no way longer than your setup, you did a wonderful job and you wasn't stressing awesome job I would never do that if I don't have to. We love Vegas and have been there many times we always stay at Nellis Airforce Base I'm retired military.
@@bigtruckbigtravelsThank you sir I was in the Army for 28 years and love it but toward the end I was getting tried of it. I know what you mean going through down town once, I mean if I can't avoid it I can do it, going to Nellis AFB off of I-15 is not problem but you guys stay safe out there.
Another home run video! My least favorite area to drive thru Vegas always a lot of traffic! Enjoyed your visit in Vegas, learned lots of new things. We tried sleeping on one of those air mattresses when our water bed mattress sprung a leak, nope not comfy for us, but glad it works for you. Really enjoy ALL your videos! Hope to meet on the road one day, we've been fulltime since 2015....getting ready to depart Yuma and spend the summer in Helper, Utah. Safe travels.
Awesome video! talk about high anxiety when being rerouted by the police. I felt like I was right there with ya.. and the sigh of relief when you made it (I thought for sure you would have had to go over curb. Nice job! We go to Vegas on our trip in 2 months - thanks for some pointers (where to get the free parking) Whataburger location etc! It has been many years since we have been there.
Thanks for another entertaining video, David and Sondra! Yes, that drive through Pahrump is, I think, more scenic and interesting--glad you took it. Cruising the strip was really funny!!
I am with you on the whataburger. It is nostalgic for me. I was about 4 or 5 years old when I ate my first whataburger. Pensacola Florida. If I see a whataburger I have to stop and get one. I live in Georgia now and we don’t have one in Warner Robins. Last one I had was in St.Johns/St Augustine Florida about two years ago. Y’all keep having fun
I was at TT in Vegas 3 years ago, I have a large truck camper on a flatbed. I also bought monorail tickets online, went to Sahara like you did, but if you look in your vid, after you are in the garage there is a pole hanging that has 6'8" on it, my truck hit that bar. I was not a liked person when I had to back all the way out of there and the line of people behind me sure let me know. I ended up parking at the Mirage, waaaay in the back in the construction area.
Oohhh! Yep, that first height bar is low! I was wondering if the Smart was going to hit it! I'm sure you heard a few honks too! Hope nothing was damaged.
That was really fun to watch. I did get a little bit frightened when you starting talking about dirty little secrets. I had my finger on the fast forward button just as a precaution bahaa. Made me want to go back to Vegas. Safe travels beautiful people
Glad you enjoyed it, Brendan. 😆 🤣 I thought I'd add the music to heighten "the mood". 😆 Fun town but a week is enough. Thanks for watching the channel.
Thanks for your reply. Must have been fantastic to learn from the best. I found a picture online from Tex and you were doing some scoring for a surfing contest. I can only imagine how cool that must have been back in the day. Anyway we love following your travels and hopefully will see you on the road some day! Safe travels ❤
Last time I was in Vegas it was a "half horse" town...........BOY! has it changed!! Enjoyed the tour and at least I will know what to do when I visit.............drive right on by!! LOL
I always enjoy seeing your thrifty abilities while still living it up traveling. It was quite a surprise to see the air mattress, I bought the memory foam right from the factory 1 sheet at a time.
Mahalo for another enjoyable episode...always look forward to your latest adventure each week! You can enjoy Cirque du Soleil in Honolulu next year at the Waikiki Beachcomber. Stay well!
Nice video! Love Las Vegas as you said it’s sort of excitement. I couldn’t believe you sleep on an air mattress- on the positive side its lightweight 😉. Las Vegas baby, yeah 😂.
Thanks. It's comfy with the foam topper... so it kind of blows us away as well when we think about it. Vegas, baby is fun but can be overwhelming and sooo much sensory input!
It's not on auto-pilot... though sometimes it is when you push the "return to home" button. Flight software let's us know if there's any geo-fencing/restrictions in the area.
I look forward to ur Thursday video. I was fortunate enough to fly into Vegas once at night and saw the beautiful lights!! It’s like a different place every time you visit. Be safe . I was nervous in all that traffic; you all are brave!!
Oh wow! Vegas from the air at night is special indeed. It's amazing how close the airport is to the Strip. Thanks for the comment and coming along on the journey with us.
After watching your GPS tour thru Vegas, I think this vlog is definitely proof that a big rig RV is not always better especially when traveling thru Vegas! Good driving! Great Vlog! What? no visit to Pawn Stars? Lol
😆 🤣 We completely understand. Vegas is a city that can be "too much" very quickly. We can take the city for about a week and then we have to get back to the "wilderness".
Loved watching you folks manage your way around.loved the pictures of the scenery. Judt beautiful. Wish l was lucky enough to do that luvs❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
