Robert...my husband and I are real fans of your vlog. And although we're no longer campers, we are keen fans of travel, and seeing this country. Your travels have been helpful to us, and your pointing out interesting and historic places, has rekindled a renewed interest in our upcoming traveling agenda. We especially have enjoyed your journey of the Lewis & Clark expedition...excellent information and wonderful photography. Thanks again Robert and safe journey.
Thank you so much for doing this series. I read the same book several years ago and have wanted to retrace the steps of Lewis and Clark ever since. Thanks to you I'm getting to see all the places I have been curious to explore. Keep up the great work!
Robert, thank you. We all so appreciate the attention you pay to your craft. It is a lot of work to put together a video of this caliber. Great job! We love following you on your adventures and really enjoy when you add a little history for us.
hello from Russia, from Siberia!❤️ I've been interested in Lewis and Clark's journey since childhood. My dream is to visit those places! my grandmother and relatives kept Newfoundlands all my life, this is my favorite breed of dog! so your videos touch me to tears, I immediately remember our Newfoundlands! thanks for the trip!❤️❤️❤️ I do not know English and I write through a translator.
Hey Robert, these Lewis & Clark episodes keep getting better and better! I really like that cutaway model of the keel boat, very well done. The augmented reality app is really impressive! Even though it's not part of the theme of your journey, I'm a bit surprised you didn't plan a quick stop in Columbia MO to pay homage to Ghost Dancer, the "Blue Highways" van that inspired who knows how many road trips. Oh well, I guess there's just never enough time to see everything, eh?
You know Robert, your very detailed in your tours. Your videos and your explanations of the places you film are spot on. I enjoyed this video. On to the next.
I have enjoyed every episode of Lewis and Clark thank you so much for the effort ! On a similar theme I hope you do the Freedom Trail tour in Boston and Salem witch trials tour 😊 No matter what the content is it’s always top quality 👍🏻
I always enjoy the historical facts you share with us Robert. I guess when people did not live as long as they do today, Lewis and Clark were considered middle aged when they set out. It is interesting how perspectives change with time. Looking forward to Kansas City.
This episode was very interesting. I enjoyed the historical value you are bringing to your audience. Thank you. Very well done. You truly are an intelligence and personable man. Thank you for your journeys. So enlighting.😊😊🙂🙂
Hey Robert! Thanks for your video’s. Very interesting always. Question, when does your new truck kick into your travels? Is it during your Lewis and Clark series?
The series that answers the question: how many starting points can one journey have? Seriously, i'm following and enjoying it, I have been thinking of a similar trip myself since I was in Glacier NP around the time of the 200th anniversary of the corps journey.
Augusta and Hermann are fantastic wine towns in that part of Mizzo. You all would really enjoy spending time in that area. Someday. I have made 8 to 10 trips there myself. Hermann has some the best German food.
Great and historic video.I really appreciate a lot of excellent information. Congrats....and go ahead....ah......very good cooking show.......ah.....new beautiful music......beautiful trail.....and see you on the road. Love...>>> MOM
BEWARE of East St Louis!!! That area is the roughest part of the area by far. Locals at a gas station warned us about it and told us to get in our car and don't stop again until we were out of East St Louis. Just an FYI for future reference. Great video BTW.
The lower mounds at Cahokia are, as I remember, pretty much all burial mounds and climbing them would be bad form. I'm glad you stopped to see Woodhenge there, it may have been underwhelming but it's an important find (a colleague I've met was in charge of several of the digs at Cahokia including Woodhenge). There are many complexes with celestial alignments which are almost certainly ceremonial calendars, I'm aware of several including one between Tallahassee and Monticello Florida (Letchworth Mounds Archaeological State Park) which is very close to other mounds and complexes in structure (ones with significant celestial alignments). People don't realize the size and scope of Cahokia - it was in essence a Capital for the culture and there were complex trade connections throughout most of the US. People also have this idea that we (as I've said earlier, I'm a descendant of an offshoot of the Mississippian culture) were relatively primitive before Europeans came, but nothing could be further from the truth. Cahokia has most of the markings of being a State level society, with multiple political levels, complex long-distance trade, and influence extending down into Florida for instance. We had specialized labor producing trade goods at Cahokia (and elsewhere), organized division of labor, and there is evidence that any violence connected with Cahokia was meant to repress groups that would have predated on towns and villages connected to the capital there and prevent them from causing problems. At one time in history, some of the biggest cities in the world were on this continent, and Cahokia was one of them. There are others (and there have been complex cultures both before and after Cahokia, like the Hopewell culture, and many of them were not as stratified as people used to think (some were quite egalitarian, like certain ones in Florida).
Actually, Poverty Point in NE Louisiana pre-dates Cahokia by more than one thousand years. The state of Illinois is a poor custodian of Cahokia (visitor center hours vary???). I hope someday the NPS takes control.
Great video. I have been to the place where Meriwether Lewis died. It is along the Natchez Trace parkway in Tennessee. The are not sure where it was a suicide or murder. You should stop by there one day.
This is a marvelous series. Thank you so much

That was GREAT as usual. Love the longer ones. You have a gift in making us actually feel we’re on the trip with you. ❤

We watch several Rv travelers BUT we enjoy yours as you put so much HISTORY into your trips. The research you do and share is very much appreciated.
The Lewis and Clark Days at Frontier Park are really great. The whole South end of the park is full of Lewis and Clark reenactors and boats.
Thanks for such a great episode Robert! I ❤️ St. Louis! This video makes me want to figure out a way to travel back through that area again.
Hi i have covid and your show gave me ejoyabul bed time for two weeks. Thank you
CAHOKIA MOUNDS is such a Wowww!
Thanks again for a wonderful presentation, Robert.
Excellent Video, Professional Quality Very Well Done. 5 Stars.
Lewis and Clark would of been great RV designers...love the view of St. Louis from the mound...darn carne guisada for breakfast 😋...looks fantastic!

Great video! I especially like your beer beef stew recipe. Yum!
Really good -A great way to spend my time in all this neat history 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Great video. We have traveled in that area but growing up in Canada we didn't know all the Lewis and Clark history so are enjoying the journey.
Я из России ! Привет
New subscriber. Wow. Glad to find your channel. Well done!
It seems like the Arch is your most videoed subject that I see. I didn't know it was that easy to see from all points around the area
Augusta and Hermann are fantastic wine towns in that part of Mizzo. You all would really enjoy spending time in that area. Someday. I have made 8 to 10 trips there myself. Hermann has some the best German food.
Thanks!
Robert, You make me travel. I have had a plan to to Route 6 in Pennsylvania for many years. We will do the trip in April.
Thank you, and happy trails!
Great and historic video.I really appreciate a lot of excellent information. Congrats....and go ahead....ah......very good cooking show.......ah.....new beautiful music......beautiful trail.....and see you on the road. Love...>>> MOM
You do a marvelous job, I love traveling with you. I hope we do the Ark Encounter someday in Williamstown Kentucky and the Creation Museum there too.
Thank you. We did the Ark as part of the Cincinnati episode.
Robert our 50 states are like 50 different countries😎!

Super,have a nice day
keep up the good work robert
Love it. keep up the good work.
That Cahokia App is pretty cool. 🧐
Hi Robert. Another great video. We were heading north on US 93 in Az. on or about October 12 and we thought we saw you heading south. Was it you?
What's the name of the app for archeology you used Robert? Keep up the good work enjoy your videos, very inquisitive.
Thank you. I don't recall using an archeology app.
The backing track was inspired by Glory from Portishead.

Your accent is like ASMR to me lol idk why it's so relaxing tho
Robert, have you had any issues with GPS? Traveled to Arkansas and both Waze and GM Auto GPS were totally messed up, 180 off.
Once in a while it will send me down the wrong path... usually a steep dirt road
The amazing part was no casualties.
Actually, Poverty Point in NE Louisiana pre-dates Cahokia by more than one thousand years. The state of Illinois is a poor custodian of Cahokia (visitor center hours vary???). I hope someday the NPS takes control.
It's actually over 2000 years older than Cahokia. Interesting site, with lots of trade and interesting practices.
Have you been to the Lake of the Ozarks?
Not yet
How did they sail upriver? Anyone know?
They had a sail, ores, poles and ropes.
5:42 To me this is not a fort, but a house with a fence. haha
For the longest time I thought it was Lois and Clark.
Great video. I have been to the place where Meriwether Lewis died. It is along the Natchez Trace parkway in Tennessee. The are not sure where it was a suicide or murder. You should stop by there one day.
We did. We stopped in January 2022.
I'm finding many miserable people too. Maybe they need to rv also
ЛАЙК !!! 😊
👍🎅🏻
👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Cool long video and the the Google woman is a bit of a pain.
Less salt, more pepper, please. Blood pressure problems, you know.
I've come to find out most ancient American history you read in history books is wrong. They treat hypothesis as 100% truth.
no such thing as a long video on your channel
