United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 4 พ.ย. 2015
We have sold everything we own and now travel the country full time in our RV to do professional landscape photography and video and produce videos to help you live life better!
We have spent our lives as parents and business owners. Growing up in Lansing Michigan, Rob spent his younger years working in the family flower business. He moved on and bought a few flower shops over the years. He finished his run as a florist in February of 2023 after selling his namesake flower shop, Robert Anthony Florist in Kissimmee.
Now, we (Rob and Joelle) along with our dog Watson plan to spend some time, perhaps even a few years living on the road from our recently purchased travel trailer; A Winnebago Micro Minnie 2108DS FLX off grid trailer.
As Empty Nesters, We hope you will consider following along as we travel, produce helpful videos including photography lessons, travel advice, and general fun. Visit us as our website (link in profile) to learn more.

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE - Helping People Find Their Way
Life's ends poorly and empty unless we understand that helping other people is our true mission in life. Today I want to talk about my thoughts on life's purpose and meaning.

About: Today I want to talk about the meaning in life. The reason we are here. I believe ultimately that our reason for being here is to help others to find the meaning in theirs...or...find their way in the chaos of it.
Too many in my view put so much effort into making money, getting rich, that they lose their way and lose track of the things in life that are most important. Family, children, salvation, and good health. I wanted to share my thoughts on this matter today from my perch atop Muley Point in Utah.

Very good video
Does it still make the vibration noise
The problem for women is you can't aim it away from your feet. Here's what you do, find a strong sapling, hold onto it and lean way back. You'll have less problems with any accidents.
I recently smashed my Avata 2 on the ground, it was seriously damaged and I wasn't able to retrieve the camera. I have care refresh and witin 5 days my drone was replaced. The claim cost me £39 - shipping cost covered by DJI.
Yep. If you can return the drone, it's not bad. The issue is the "flyaway"
Unless u had it setup in sport mode the object sensors are disabled..
Yes, I know
Hi, Rob. As always, I’ve enjoyed your videos. I have a 2022 Winnebago Micro Minnie 2108TB FLX edition. I want to do what you did and set up my rig to charge the lithium battery while driving. I plan to acquire the Renogy 50A DC to DC On-Board Battery Charger with MPPT. Can you recommend a video or website that will give me step-by-step instructions on how to do this? I’m somewhat handy but ignorant when it comes to wiring. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Hey Doug. Please email me directly. I'll help you.
@@livingwithrob Hi, Rob. I’m actually picking up the trailer tomorrow. We’re excited about that. When you said “email me directly “ is this reply what you had in mind? I don’t have your email address. Apologies if I’ve misunderstood.
@douglasross3488 Sorry. rob@livingwithrob.com

Thanks again for the video. It is sweet for the soul. I share these with my family, keep seeking him first and all will follow.
Thanks for the encouragement. Really appreciate you.
Did you upgrade the floor?
@@senseofstile it was foam vinyl overlay
@@livingwithrob Thanks
@@senseofstile you're welcome
The insurance industry has to be the most ripped off industry since the library. No wonder they're super cagey. Drones fall out of the sky and run away all the time, I'm surprised they're insurable at all. It's still a good deal imo.
Thanks. Point in the video is...by the time you've paid the premium and subsequent "replacement fees" on a fly away, you are farther ahead to simply buy a DJI "drone only" replacement. Appreciate you watching.
Good luck trying to get it fixed on the road, Winnebago does not pay there bills
@@Howellk1032 we have since moved on to a different RV

@@lordaresthefirst thanks for watching
Your video of the landscapes and sky let my soul sing, thankyou
@@user-kb5ue4xm7x I love that. Thank you.
The new slides are not metal on metal after on new systems they now use a composite. No lube on composite if it is the old metal on metal then Lube
Agree. Thank you.
Thanks for this. I didn't get care refresh with my recent M4P. I think a small amount of background worry is healthy and makes you check everything twice ! If I lose mine I won't mind too much having to pay for a refurb replacement that is only fractionally more than the flyaway cost.
@@Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay and you make my point exactly. Refurbished is fractional more...with less headache! Thanks for watching.
This is such a useful tutorial and you are absolutely iconic

@@garryholyoak9960 that's great.
I love your channel and your photography, I’ve told you before that your photography is some of the best and I thank you for sharing it. My Question for you is how old are you? And how do you stay physically fit? What is your routine for staying fit and best advice for becoming a better photographer.
James, thank you. I will produce a video to answer your questions.
@@livingwithrob thank you
Rob, I am new to the rv world. I have a micro mini flex and have used it for 2 week ends. Been parked in our driveway for 2 weeks now and the inside smells bad. Worse than the “new smell “ everyone talks about. What do you think the smell could be???
@mikerogers9711 Without smelling them, it's tough to guess. There are a few things I'd look for... -Dead Rodent -Sour food somewhere -Misplaced trash -Mold at Water sources -Toilet seal. Your Dometic toilet may be from the batch with bad seals. Mine was. They replaced it 2 times -If you use your black tank and have not been putting 2 to 4 gallons of water in it before using, you may have developed what's called the dreaded "poop pyramid"
Also, be sure to come over to @robthervguy and subscribe. This would have been a great question over there.
Thanks for the info.
@@pacificlinedesign19 hope it helps
The video I watched from your link says not required
@donswain7859 That's true. It's not "required". My observation has been, those who have experience in the field state emphatically almost every slide failure they repair lists not lubricating as a significant if not the culprit to the failure. Ultimately, it's up to each owner to decide to trust Lippert or those in the field. After Lipperts initial adamant denial of issues with all the frame failures going on out here, I choose to side with filed techs.
Those are really nifty beds. Great job.
Thanks!
Poor design from Winnebago. Plus the battery has to come out in the winter or you gotta fire out how to provide some heat to the compartment. Very disappointing.
Thanks for watching
Why does the battery need to come out in the Winter? Your area gets below the -4℉ storage temp low?
Do you know if I will still need to purchase a daily vehicle pass if I am already the 2nd vehicle on my daughter's camp reservation?
I'm not sure.
Disappointing that you can’t charge your batteries while driving, without installing additional equipment.
Agree. All of my RV future content is moving to youtube.com/@robthervguy on TH-cam
Thanks, Rob. We just bought a used 2022 2108 TB FLX and we felt the same way - that this is one for us. I watched your slide maintenance video and it will be one of my first jobs when I take delivery later this month. I was really concerned about how to do this and the Lippert video you linked us to was most helpful. Thanks again.
That's great. I'm glad you shared! All of my future RV content is moving to youtube.com/@robthervguy on TH-cam. FYI

Just watched the video. We have had our Micro Mini 2225RL for a couple years now and love it as well. Last year spent about 90 nights in it. This year, we will spend 120 or more nights in it. People need to own the camper rather than just complaining about it.
Thanks for watching Bruce
Saw your comment on Tech Tip Tuesday. I have rhe 2108 FB flx and want to use the side port, which you mentioned you already have experience with. Is it my understanding if I use the side port for a 100 watt panel, I need ro get a separate controller? Have you determibed the aide port gies ro the battery or controller. Any help is greatly appreciated. Flx doesnt provide much information.. Thank you.
Good morning. It goes to the controller. However, the way it's wired to the controller makes it problematic. You are better installing a separate charge controller and rewiring the side port connection to it. This is straight from GoPower when I worked up my modifications.
I use the dry lubes. They don’t attract grime
Agree
Doing research for my wife, this was very informative and absolutely hilarious!
Glad you got a laugh out of it.
Honest question. Why pay all the money for the Flex to be off grid, when I can have a small quite 2000 watt generator to recharge batteries? Is it a noise thing?
That's a good question. Out here, on the road, my experience has been that the noise is an issue. I personally don't like listening to it when mine is running. I've also noticed that in settings where others are present, no one seems to appreciate the people running their generator. I think it's nice to have the solar working all the time (when there's sun) to charge. I suppose it's a matter of convenience and the quiet it offers. I do wonder, though, if the cost is worth the benefits.
I think the FLX comes with the higher efficiency Truma AC. So not only does it have larger battery capacity and more solar, it uses less energy. Doesn't look like the Truma heater or water heater has a heat pump mode, so it doesn't offer any better energy efficiency than a regular heater. (Inefficiency means you lose energy as waste heat. But since the desired product from a heater is heat, all heaters are 100% efficient.) I would agree it's a pointless distinction. And they should just offer these as an option on the regular Micro Minnie. So people can mix and match these, the battery bank, the extra solar as they want. Instead of having to be pigeonholed into just two packages.
