Andrea Slagoski - Keep Travelin'
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 17 พ.ย. 2019
Andrea & Daniel live in northern Wisconsin and have had many types of RV’s to travel in. We have found our 2008 E350 Ford van to be the most convenient for getting around in all areas, easy to park, easy to travel through cities. We enjoy the simplicity of it and have taken trips up to 7 weeks sleeping in the van. At one time we spent 3 months in the SW pulling a 19’ trailer. I feature videos about short trips around our area of Langlade County, Marathon County and other areas around our home base. We love to hike, enjoy waterfalls, camp to enjoy and visit sites in the area, rarely sitting still for long. We are not experts in creating videos, started this to mainly save our trips on TH-cam for our future enjoyment and hope someone else finds some enjoyment in viewing the different spots we have seen too.

Weather and my eyes put off taking you to a County Park we haven't been to in quite some time. So this film is "this and that" as we were stuck close to home doing projects as you can see in our other videos. We made some short trips, one was past Mosinee on our way to Mullins Cheese in Knowlton, WI. We attended the Antigo Badgerland Classics & Customs car show. I threw in a couple cooking vide...
New crushed Granite Driveway
มุมมอง 16914 วันที่ผ่านมา
We were torn in our decision on how to improve our driveway. It's been years since we had crushed granite put in and our priority was to pave it with concrete. We received the estimate, but as you know, it's quite expensive. We visited a couple sand & gravel locations even asking about crushed blacktop. We learned why that isn't the best - smell, tracking, messy. Krueger & Steinfest convinced u...

Part 2 More Sump Pump Problems
มุมมอง 3421 วันที่ผ่านมา
This is part two of our sump pump problems. The first video covered how we handle a lot of water during these rainy times of the year. We have directed water to the front and the back of our house, created a waterfall and stream, and back yard in-ground tiling system. In this video we are running PVC pipes to the front of our house because the ones a plumber installed 1-1/2" deep froze over las...
Lost our way in a National Forest, found Timm’s Hill
มุมมอง 88หลายเดือนก่อน
We were specifically looking for 3 campsites around the Mondeaux Flowage in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. We got really confused at the bottom, missed the road going up the East side and that's why we missed seeing two of the campgrounds on that side. We saw Eastwood Campground before leaving the area and headed to Timm's Hill. Walking back to our car, wow. did I get attacked by mosq...

Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs
มุมมอง 40หลายเดือนก่อน
Part of camping and traveling is meal prep because it's not always necessary to eat out. Costs are high, satisfaction does not always happen and we really enjoy the food we prepare. We purchased a crock pot with a lock down cover and can plug in to a power source and cook while traveling. What could be nicer than having a meal all ready when we've reached our destination!!
Excess Sump Pump Water!!
มุมมอง 190หลายเดือนก่อน
The ordeal of a lot of sump pump water due to this rainy season. Our house has drainage pipes surrounding it, the sump pump is running every ten minutes. This video shows what we've had to deal with to figure out what to do with all this water. Years ago we constructed a pond, tired of the multiple times a pond needed to be cleaned and now have just the stream. Well, we love waterfalls so that ...

Be Careful of the Open Crevice at Ledge Park
มุมมอง 162 หลายเดือนก่อน
Ledge Park is a Dodge County Park with a Horicon, WI address. Horicon Marsh can be seen from Ledge Park's Observation Point. There are lots of trails to hike, 41 campsites, a shelter, playground, restroom/shower facility, picnic areas and a dump station. Be careful, don't get too close to the edge of the ledge though! We had fun on the trails and observation point. The sunsets are excellent.

Great video, guys! We loved those two parks... The river is so gorgeous! Old Veteran's Campground was pretty nice too. And a state park too - Wow, you guys did a lot of exploring in one day! ;-) 💙Terry and Terri
Andrea I love these videos
@@pinapplear Thank you!
Its such a pretty place
Yes, it sure is.
This was really interesting to hear the process of your eye cataract surgery. Amazing how a doctor is able to replace the lens of your eye. Luckily, I still see well and have no cloudiness in my vision.
Oh, I'm glad to see this new chicken recipe. I need the link to it.
Nice variety of photos. My favorite is the fawn in the tall grass. I love the music too.
Comment as to which one is your favorite.
I had a good laugh over the "scenic overlook"!!
Just think of that walking bridge over the highway was built just for the view which no longer exists now. It's a shame it wasn't maintained by tree trimming. We are just happy the van didn't break down there, in the middle of no place.
Nice video!
I love Wisconsin. What a beautiful state park!
Yes, there is so much to see nearby.
Always an adventure! Glad it had a happy ending.
Yes, that's for sure. We broke down at a convenient place, thank goodness.
I really enjoy your videos! Seems to me we often camped near railroad tracks back in the day.
/I don't understand, why did the plumber decide to dig up the yard and the shrubs? It seems unnecessary, Most plumbers replace rotted water lines by pulling the new line underground, There's no digging up yards and backfilling, the new water line is pulled from the basement out to the street shutoff beneath the apron, it's fast and efficient, There's no mess in your yard to clean up.
They had to get into the area where it goes into the foundation and the street level shut off valve, all below the freeze line. Also some of the utilities all ran over this and they couldn't risk harming those. Then they also insulated over the top of the new line. This job was through a grant to replace old lead piping with copper. We don't know any more, except this is how it was being done throughout the city. This doesn't answer your question and even online I see how it can be done without digging it all out. It says in rare cases digging a trench is required, so I don't know why it was done all over this city like that.
Pretty views from the lookout points over the lake!
Beautiful falls....multiple falls... So springtime is the best time to be there with more water flowing.
Yes, we usually look for waterfalls in early May. It can depend on the weather as far as the fall also.
Hey Guys! We've been meaning to check this place out so we were glad to see you had a video of it. ;-) Looks like a pretty place to explore. Love the boardwalk! Definitely going on our list - thanks for sharing!! 💙Terry and Terri
Nice! And even some wildlife!
Seeing lots of turtles is a good sign. Being up close to the deer was really surprising. It must be so protected there that it just got accustomed to people.
Thank you.
Nice!
Nice build...lots of work involved but the results are worth it :)
Lot canoes on that river in summer
I've also been around the wild cat state park area lot of nice views there Ontario just up the road
Don't forget to get the fry pies at bakeries around Kingston and there cheese bacon bread just there Friday I'm about 20miles east of Kingston Wisconsin so we get to Kingston and Dalton area often nice video
I didn't know about fry pies, but will sure look for the bakery the next time there.
Very cool video. I gave you a follow 169 now
Thank you so much 👍
Your hair looks so cute!
Oh thank you!
The atmosphere looks nice at the restaurant
That bridge was beautiful
Must be the old photo from 2004. It’s a shame they never rebuilt that bridge.
Very interesting about the flash flood
7 miles! That’s awesome
Hi Libby!!
Enjoying your video while we eat dinner tonight
Glad you enjoyed
It was at 85% there.
I watched this video from my hotel in Istanbul, so it was nice to see familiar faces in a very familiar place. How impressive was the eclipse from Devil's Lake?
A hit ..
Oh wow, they are logging that off! That is definitely one of our favorite places to hike! ;-) Nice share! 💙Terry and Terri
Hello Andrea and Daniel!! We have been enjoying your videos... We have surmised that you guys are from Antigo, as are we and we are also TH-camrs. We also retired at 62 so we could do some traveling and also went through many campers before settling on a van! ;-) Looking forward to more of your adventures! 💙Terry and Terri
Good to hear from you! It would be nice to gain some ideas from you. I’m an amateur working on iMovie that gives me problems. How long have you been doing videos? Write me at andiein2002@yahoo.com Thank you.
😮
Yeah, I don't think so!!! Your town seems as interesting and entertaining, as either watching paint on a wall dry!! Or competing in a 'Marching Band Competition'!!!! Besides, after Wisconsin letting that murdering little bastard Kyle Rittenhouse go free!!!! Has become the 'Mississippi of the North'!!!!! Good riddance😠😡👿🖕🖕
HARD JOB POR ONLY ONE MEN Y A DOCEN OF WORKERS WITH THE HANDS IN THEIR POCKETS 🥵
i have never seen a mess like it totally shocking
Hope Daniel is feeling much better, Your video was really nice, Thank you👍
Daniel deals with it day by day and remains as active as possible. Doesn’t seem to be any real cure, only balance exercises so far. Thank you for your comment.
I wondered why your galvanized pipe had to be replaced and I read this online.... Galvanized pipes are coated with a layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. However, galvanized pipes are not safe for drinking water, as the zinc layer can wear off and expose the pipe to lead and other contaminants. Lucky you could get a grant to pay for this work.
Andrea, your talent as a photographer and story teller is truly amazing. I really enjoy your travels. Hi to Daniel too!
Thank you. That makes me feel good as I sure feel like an amateur. I hope others enjoy these, but it’s a way of preserving our memories too.
We just recently purchased this same trailer (2012 Jayco Skylark) and will be taking it to the Oregon coast in June. Id be interested in your thoughts on this trailer and how it's worked out for you.
This was really interesting!!
Very Beautiful Video!!!!! F+L, Corey
Thank you.
Curious how the rubber body mounts are. I replaced mine in my 2010 e 250 before doing the interior. You have to lift the body off the frame and of course your floor and everything attached or above it has to come out.. Just a FYI for those taking on any Van conversion where the body and frame are separate.. E series vans have 10 to 14 mounts depending on if it's extended. The mounts are expensive and the labor has to be more expensive. I did mine and got great prices from Parts Geek. They have the best prices, but don't be in a hurry. The majority of the mounts are the same. Four are different. The two in the #1 position (front) and the two in the #5 position are special. The # 5 position (near the rear axle) were shot on mine.
We didn’t do anything with our body mounts. What was the problem with yours?
I am going to let everyone I know to watch and subscribe you are great and fun to listen to.
Thank you so much!
As you started your trip on Hwy 29, you headed WEST to Chippewa Falls.
Beautifully done
