So, Navy Commander, do you know how to drive a boat? Ha ha ha, my favorite line in the video. Beautifully shot and edited, I like the destination videos the best. Wish I could jump in the lake like that, it's been much too long. Hand salute.
I’m not a die hard baseball fanatic and I’m satisfied with watching others enjoy venues such as Coop-town and other places that draw my curiosity, it helps keep my costs down😉...thank you for your honest review...
Plenty to see in NY. Cooperstown is lovely. I'm glad you had a good time in my home state. I've been the Baseball Hall of Fame three times. It never disappoints. If you are in the Quantico area of Triangle VA - don't miss the US Marine Corp Museum or if you are in Dayton OH - don't miss the US Air Force Museum. Both are fabulous and free to get in unlike so many other museums. Stay safe on the road! I look forward to your next video.
I almost spit out my coffee when the young gentleman was asking Philz if he knew how to drive a boat 😂 (of course I know he had no clue and that's his job to ask, but it was funny). Very pretty area there around the lake.
@@joe-aj0yz And of course one should not automatically assume that just because someone is/was in the Navy they know how to drive a boat - but, yeah, it was a coffee spitting moment for sure!
@@lindarose2837 Exactly! Kinda like not all of us who are former Air Force can automatically fly a plane (although...we may not admit if our wives aren't around!) Hahaha
@@todayissomeday Cool - that's something not a lot of people can say they have done. in their lifetime. That's really awesome tbh. Burning question - he can drive a huge ship, but can he parallel park the rig? (just kidding😉 )
Awesome video. I have been to Cooperstown many times when I was young. (Many years ago) There's alot of other stuff to do. There was a working colonial farm. And a carriage house. Many museums. I wish you'd try the other stuff. You'd probably enjoy it.
Just wanted to say, its a pleasure to see natural content, not manufactured to look like everything is perfect, (like some others) life's not and please don't apologize for saying the kids were a PITA, if they were - they were, you're not not going to offend anyone. Great work, keep it up!
I am subscribed to 14 other full time channels but you guys are the best. We moved into our XLR Thunderbolt 5th wheel toy hauler in April but won’t be able to travel full time until sometime next summer can’t wait, hope to see you on the road.
I had the same experience at Cooperstown hall of fame. Nice to see no improvements have been made in years. I love the area, i would camp all over every chance i got. Nice to see the area again.
The HOF was magical to me! I am a coach and I took two different baseball teams to Cooperstown to participate in the baseball tourney that occur there from June to August. I also took them to the HOF to see and understand the history of the game. Unbelievable place, beautiful town, and beautiful area! Go to Doubleday Field and listen to the silence. You can feel the history and ghosts of past legends that have played there.
Love the pontoon boats! We rented one with our daughter and grandkids and went out on Tims Ford Lake in TN... had the best time! So while i was watching this video got all excited about going back and doing it again!!😃 you guys have so much fun and have such informative videos😊 i am learning so much from you guys! Cant wait to get our fifth wheel😁
We went to Cooperstown a few years ago, with my brother and his wife. I will say the guys enjoyed it more than the girls. We also went to Niagara Falls on the Canadian side which we all loved!! Looked 👀like you all had a wonderful time out on the lake boating. Safe travels 😊💞🇺🇸
Looks like a great day on the lake 😁! Love that drone shot flying by the boat then that tower. What is that tower? And Al needs to join the Olympic flipping off a boat team - forwards and backwards ?!? - he’s got skills 🤣 ! 😂 !
Great video. Have you looked at the Watkins Glen State Park area? Amazing hiking trails and waterfalls. There are over 20 amazing falls in the south finger lakes region. When you go to Niagara Falls go to the Canadian side for a much better experience. Plan on riding the Maid of the mist and spend some time at the top of the space needle at sunset (they have a nice restaurant at the top) so you can watch them turn on the lights on the falls.
We passed through this area this summer, but did not have time to stop in Cooperstown. Glad yal are having a wonderful time. We love to travel with friends also. We have done a lot of traveling through the years. We have traveled all 50 states, but it's impossible to see it all.
Football Hall of Fame is about 1/2 hour from us. Never been there but will probably make it this fall due to 10 year old grandchild asking to go. Keep the great videos coming!
Another awesome video, just keep your shirts in guys. By the way Phil I see your Rookies pause at Story in the video, I went to school with his mom and Dad.
I found it quite humorous when the young man asked if you knew how to drive a boat. That's kind of like asking Chuck Yeager if he knows how to fly, or Dale Earnhardt Jr. if he knows how to drive. I understand the kid doesn't know you, but I just find it funny.
Great video especially the beautiful drone footage of the lake. The museum doesn't look particularly interesting if its mostly just small plagues on the wall with a little text but the lake and surrounding country are a must see 👍
I would LOVE to go through the Hall of Fame @ Cooperstown ‼️ Raised with listening to it on the radio and a Big Fan of the SF Giants 🧡🖤🧡 ⚾️ even through the rough times. Sorry I hear that the crazzzzziness didn’t give you a great experience 😕 I hope to get back there sometime! My Dream is to hit ALL 30 of the Ball Parks across the nation. One Day Soon ❤️
Th west of the country is spectacular and beautiful, with it’s vastness and splendor of it all but the times I have been their I got very tired of the brown. After the east coast and the lushness of the greens it just seems so stark out their. I have been several times and will visit again but I prefer east coast landscape as long as I have air conditioning. I just spent a month in the mts. Of VT, NH, and NY. Very peaceful lots of great hikes. Lots of waterfallls.
I see you spent a few frames on Whitey Herzog, so he must have been around when you were watching baseball, right? I know he was way before my time, so you wear your 90 + years well.
When you come to see the Football Hall of Fame, you might as well stop by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The North Coast has a lot of amazing things to see and do.
You, Me & the RV Oh! I thought I saw a cross on the top and I assumed it was a church! 😆Thank you for the response, I will write it in our RV/travel book! (Yes, there’s a actual book, each state listed in alphabetical order with “must see” attractions, info on free boondocking and some RV repair/maintenance shops.. etc..) I’m a bit of a Organizational freek! 😂 Thanks again and safe travels! - Kat
Seems like FOREVER since I saw an upload from y'all. 😉 (Just kidding. I think it's only been a couple weeks. Just that you and a couple of other full timers are my faves on TH-cam.) I'm with Stacy; Baseball Hall of Fame would not be that interesting for me. Especially for $25 with a building full of snot-nosed kiddies. HAHAHA I'll be honest, I probably would have gone back up front after the first sign of busloads of kids and asked for my $$ back and said, "I might return on another day; don't count on it though." I love well-behaved kids; just that 'most' kids today are not well behaved (my experience anyway). Great video; thanks for taking us on the journey. The baseball stuff has put me of mind of my paternal grandfather now... He LOVED baseball and anytime it was in season he'd be in the front room of their house sitting on the couch (with his yippy, snappy, snarling chihuahua that seemed to hate ... well, EVERYONE but Gaga) watching a game on television. RIP Gaga. Safe travels, y'all!
I have tried to sound hound your background music. What is the name of the music on this video. Any chance we could get a list of the music you have done. We have been binge watching the videos and this is the first time I have thought to send a message to inquire. We hope to buy an Alegro Red 33 or 37 soon. Do you ever wish you had bought the 37 footer?
Thanks for reaching out Marty. We use Epidemic Sound for music...it is a paid subscription. We did look at both and the bathroom and extra basement storage in the 37PA would have been nice.....but would have meant more stuff. The 33AA is perfect for us.
Hey Guys! I enjoyed the video ( BUUUT! ) I think you just might enjoy where those bats came from! Louisville Ky. We have the largest bat in the world! I think its over one hundred feet tall! And you have to come and stay at least a week here! Because here there is way to many thing to see and take in! RE church hill downs and the museum , bell of louisville ,' steam boat '! and a lot of other things to menchin! What was Phils rank when he retired? Chief or master chief? Ha! Ha! I to was navy! What Was Phils MOS? Im the one who's brother had a bad accident in Texas! There doing Ok! He and his wife havn't given up on getting out there , they have decided on a 5th wheel but havn't found one as yet! "NOT A MOTOR HOME"!
Those are on the list for sure. We will make it too KY eventually. Phil retired as an O-4. He got a commission at 15 yrs. He was a senior chief at the time (E-8). He was a MAA and retired as a security officer. I am glad to hear your family is doing ok. I am so glad their horrible experience did not turn them off to RVing. I wish them luck finding their perfect 5er.
@@todayissomeday So, I guess I need to warn you that if you do come to the derby I need to tell you when this takes place! It is always, the first Saturday in May! ("ALWAYS") Now if you do want to come, it is best to come 2 weeks before! Here is why....... There is a festival! This starts 2weeks before the derby with one of the largest fireworks show in the hole country! with all kinds of activites for the 2 weeks! And all of the other things to offer ! Near where we live there is the Jim beam distillerys! Bardstown ky (which has been awarded the pretties small town in the U. S.) There is so much more!
My parents lived outside Cooperstown in Hartwick for over 20 years....maybe a good time to hit the ‘baseball hall of fame’ would be during the ‘soccer’ tournaments and hall of fame season 😳🤷🏻♀️
Agree, the hall of fame is a bit underwhelming. Cooperstown is great area though, lots to see, good food and the lake is beautiful. I recommend stopping by Brewery Ommegang. You can also get their beers in many local restaurants.
We went to the Hall of Fame too. My son is a huge baseball fan so he loved it. I really enjoyed the movie. We went on a Sunday so there were not too many kids running around.

What a great video. Love the camera work and music. I'm enjoying the trip on the east coast.
Thanks! We are loving it too. It is really beautiful.
I had the same experience at Cooperstown hall of fame. Nice to see no improvements have been made in years. I love the area, i would camp all over every chance i got. Nice to see the area again.

Bummer!
Another great video. I was going to suggest Cooperstown. Nice flips.
another AWESOME video thanks for sharing another great adventure love these videos Hugs from Down under
Thanks so much
Football Hall of Fame is about 1/2 hour from us. Never been there but will probably make it this fall due to 10 year old grandchild asking to go. Keep the great videos coming!

Right!
Wish you had taken in the Farmers museum there , think you would have enjoy that - they have a working hand carved carousel - real treasure!
We saw it but didnt have enough time to do it all. The boat won that vote.
It is special to me as my cousin curved 3 on it , skunk horse and the bear , if you ever go back though, check it out you will love it 🤗
Stop in KY for the Louisville Slugger Museum small but pretty cool place
It is on the list.
Love the baseball HOF. They also make bats in Cooperstown. www.cooperstownbat.com/
Great video especially the beautiful drone footage of the lake. The museum doesn't look particularly interesting if its mostly just small plagues on the wall with a little text but the lake and surrounding country are a must see 👍
There is a LOT more to see. We were just not able to get decent footage due to all the kids running around.
You will love the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio!! Would love to meet up if you come to town!!
I loved the NFL HOF.
We will need to eventually make a stop.

I’m so glad someone is traveling the East Coast this year. I get tired of everyone being on the west coast and doing the same thing.

They are close to each other??
@@todayissomeday an hour apart. Cleveland and Canton.
Crossed of my bucket list last spring. Not very crowded than and spent a good 3 hours in the hall of fame. Did you hit lake George while in the area?
I am glad you had uninterrupted viewing! I think our biggest fail was going the week before the 2019 induction.
Maybe go to BBHF during the winter? Late fall? After school starts? NOT during the LLWS?
That would have been smarter! Also not during the week before the induction.
That church on the lake is absolutely amazing!!! Where is it so I can write it in our travel book?

That is the way to go!
I disagree! I am so not a baseball fan!! But I loved much of the museum, the older displays- love the history!! But the newer stuff not as much 🤷♀️
We enjoy your videos. Stay safe and enjoy the adventure:)) John 3:16
Thanks!
You went the wrong time of the year....
Agreed! It was the week before the 2019 induction.
I went to the museum and felt the same way not worth the trip to me sorry ...football maybe :)
We are hoping it will be better. Fingers crossed.
I have 4 kids and people need to control their kids. It ruins it for others.
