We are Jeff & Caroline. For over 20 years we’ve spent as much of our free time as possible exploring the country as well as other parts of the world and we are always up for new adventures!
As with many of you, the pandemic prompted us to reassess our lives and focus on what is really important. As a result, we dramatically restructured our work situations and left our home on the west coast in pursuit of a more nomadic lifestyle. We have relocated to the center of the country, as it makes a perfect launching pad for our travels.
In late 2021 we decided to share our adventures with friends, family and those who are interested in coming along for the ride. We are not travel guides, photographers or videographers. We are just two people who have a genuine appreciation for all the world has to offer. We are happy to share our experiences with you and hope they bring joy and positivity into your life.

❤great job , thanks
Thanks for watching!
I love the effort that was put into making this video. I'm actually a nurse trying to apply for a hospital located there in Dodge City and I got curious about the surrounding area near that hospital. I wasn't able to find many review or tour videos about Dodge City, but thank God I found your video. Learned a lot, and kudos to the great music background, and relaxing narration by the way. Cheers!
Good luck to you and thanks for watching!
My grand dad was the official photographer of the Poncan Theatre for many years until his death in 2015, his adopted dad lived in Ponca since at least the 1930s and was one of the early projectionists for the theatre (A picture of him Raymond Cox is still in the lobby of the theatre). Haven't been back since grandpa died but seeing as I'm only a couple hours away I'd love to make the trip back sometime, visit family in the cemetery and get some wet plate photos of some of the historic spots in honor of my family who grew with the city over the past 100 years or so.
That is so cool! Thanks for sharing.
my parents lived there for 35 years before passing away. Loved Burger Barn.
I love my city so much. I appreciate you guys making this video. I need to appreciate this town more.
Been there a couple of times and now moving there from Philly suburbs. A lot a great reminders with interesting unknown things thrown in. Makes me want to be there sooner. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Everything like house,shopping mall, entertainment, and more should transfer to Douglas, Ga not only making Douglas, Ga biggest city also more people would reside in this district and more entertainment for many tourist different territory collaborate the funds improve the smaller town.
Someone described the Mississippi Gulf Coast as the Poor Man's Key West.He is probably correct considering how expensive Key West is
This town is a testimony to human resilience. Rebuilding a city that was all but completely destroyed is amazing. Napoleon Hill had a saying that summarizes the locals very well. He said, "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve." The folks in Pass Christian could be role models for us all. Great video, thank you.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
In town There was a strip mall there. It had a Publix; McCory; and a pet store called Animal House.
We love the appalachiacola port st joe area and visit every chance we get. Funny thing is we are from helen georgia where the head of the Chattahoochee river is. I have stood with the Chattahoochee flowing between my feet. Yes the Chattahoochee turns into the appalachiacola at the florida line and its mouth is ofcourse the appalachiacola bay.
Thanks for watching!
Headed home there this week!
Can’t stop singing Avenues and Alleyways by Tony Christie now! Probably look for Amarillo next.
Thanks for watching!
Good video ❤
Thank you!
wish y'all could have walked another block down the road behind the Library. there was a Elem and Middle school and a church and the cemetery at the same corner. You would have found it very interesting. Also the town next to the Pass, heading East is Long Beach.. Also a small town but a little bit bigger! Hope you can come back again for an all day visit. Safe travels!
Thanks for watching and for the recommendations!
I love Salina ❤
Thanks for watching!
I'm from Louisiana but, in 1986, marched in a world championship drum and bugle corps from Hutchinson called the Sky Ryders (TH-cam Sky Ryders drum and bugle corps). The corps was nationally very competitive for many years. The corps left the Hutchinson area in the early 90's and moved to Dallas. We stayed and rehearsed at Hutchinson Community College. I enjoyed my time there.
How cool! Thanks for sharing.
Your video is light years ahead of 90% of the travel videos I've seen. Most of those videos are shot from cars and are terrible. Fleeting glances of the buildings and homes are all you get when filming from a moving car. Thank you for the extra effort it took to make this video. Wayne Dyer used to say, "It's never crowded along the extra mile." Please keep up the good work.
Thank you for your kind words! We are glad you've enjoyed them and hope you've seen some of our more recent videos....we think they've improved over time! Thanks for watching.
@@bagspackedadventures5492 Your welcome. I love travel videos and especially Kansas and small towns. I spent most of my life in California, hence my affinity for small, less congested towns. I'll definitely visit your website again. Take care.
Great video! I got married in the building featured at 4:09 Hattiesburg architecture is very charming
Thanks for sharing and for watching!
I was there in1993...Commuted on the Amtrak train from Miami Florida...destination Ocala.
Thanks for watching!

You totally missed the Military Heritage Museum. Right before you turn into Fishermen Village. Big building with a hug Huey Helicopter in front yard of the building. A must see. 17,000 square feet inside. Thousands of artifacts, plus 247 seats, the Gulf Theater inside. 900 W. Marion Ave.
That will give us something to check out next time. Thanks for watching and for the recommendation!
I moved to N Georgia in 2017. Before that, I grew up and lived in the Palatka/Bostwick area all my life. Thank you for showing my hometown.
Thanks for watching!
Love all the old buildings and small town vibes. I’ve actually never stopped in Frostproof… one day! Cool video 😎
Thanks for watching!
Looks right.i love in punts gorda.the solona area in a home built 1895

Also the Naval Avation Museum is free to the public and it is one of a kind. I love aPennsocola 2!!

You’ll love Bartlesville.

You should have visited the Marshall's museum.
We had to get to our next destination as this was an unplanned stop, but we will definitely go there next time. Thanks for watching!
...we have shared your experiences...we have shared your awe, amazement, and love for the area...UNFORGETABLE aren't they?...❤
Thanks for watching!
I was raised in Shreveport but I live in California now. I wish you had gone by the Municiple Auditorium where Elvis Presley was discovered at the Louisiana Hayride Country Western show. There is a statue of Elvis Infront of the auditorium. The Hayride scene in the film Elvis is referring to the Louisiana Hayride in Shreveport. Here is the link. th-cam.com/video/1_xRnc45lV8/w-d-xo.html
@@larrypurtell, Thanks for the info! We'll check that put next time Thanks for watching!
My mom was born here and had us 4 girls there. She /we lived on E 75th St.. right next door to her mom. this was in the 60's. We moved to my Dad's hometown of Pass Christian in 1970 and still here. My grandma and one other person were the last to leave the neighborhood. It's where my Gma had lived since she got married in the late 1920's / early 1930's.
We will be renting a beach house on Cape San Blas and visiting Port St Joe's soon. Thanks for the tour. Pretty much what we expected. Quaint, laid back & no crowds. A nice change from some of Florida's larger vacation spots.
@thomaskelly6010 , Have a great trip and thanks for watching!
Thank you, guys, for visiting! I've always wondered what the experience would be like as a first time tourist to the city. My wife and I like to hit up little towns and find flavor, too, but as a lifelong resident I couldn't see the area without bias. So, thanks for sharing! I hope you can return during the week sometime and delve a little deeper. You only scratched the surface. Downtown closes at midnight on Saturday and buttons down until Monday. LOL.
We really enjoyed Fort Smith. Thanks for watching!
I like it I'm going to go there and ride my e-bike all around town
@@wooterstommy1103 Thanks for watching!
I have been to Tupelo before. Where is the Waterfront ? never saw that.
Such a great smile, Caroline! Thanks guys, headed out there today just for a short little adventure. Cheers🎉
Thank you! ❤️
If I remember right back in the 70s there was a movie theater in there also
@@RandyRiker Thanks for the info!
You have a very soothing voice, you are the cure for insomnia. Seriously, think about doing voice-overs for prayers and insomnia. Very chill video.
Thanks for watching!
Publix Supermarket, Eckerd Drug Store, and McCrory Variety Store. The shopping center which was built in 1964 was leveled by Hurricane Charley in 2004. The space where the shopping center stood is currently used as a parking lot,
Thanks for filling us in!
No it was a Publix pre Charley
What a wonderful treat. A beautiful city rich in history and culture. Always wanted to visit. Thank you for sharing this video and enjoy your trip. 😊
Thanks for watching!
Born and raised here. Glad you enjoyed it, and glad that you mentioned it was slow because of being a Sunday morning. Downtown is nice, but it's the tip of the iceberg. Lakeland has grown sooo much in the last 20 years it's unbelievable. Mostly for the better.Always wanted to go to a First Friday downtown, just haven't made it yet. But we will. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful Beaches there!Nice Public Art downtown!
The big draw of Punta Gorda are the boat canals. Several neighborhoods of Punta Gorda have streets in front of the houses and boat canals behind the houses. The majority of these canals are deep enough for sailboats with no bridges or locks to the open Harbor.
Thanks for the info and for watching!
I swore the population was above 20k. It's a big place for only 14k people. A basketball stadium holds more people. Grew up there. A lot to like about the place. A lot to dislike about it too. I don't know if it's still this way, but back then the law enforcement and judicial system was horrendous. Police infringing your rights, public defenders best friends with the district attorney. Pretty sure if you was a defendant with a court appointed attorney in McPherson back then. There was a very good chance the Judge the DA and your attorney went and played golf together after they shafted you. And then the Judge retires, DA becomes the judge, Public defender becomes the DA, and one of their family members becomes the new public defender.
