We're Eric & Allison and we're on a journey to find the most interesting places and unique foods this planet has to offer! We've traded in our steady paychecks and permanent home for a life of travel and adventure. Come along and see the world with us!
Montpelier VT is the only capitol city in the USA that has no McDonalds. Also VT outlawed billboards, which is why the views are so lovely on the highway.
Hahahaha! Autumn in Vermont *means* freezing nights and warmer days -- that's nothing new or unusual. As a kid, it was normal to buy Halloween outfits to fit over snowsuits.
Beware, though, when Winter *really* comes 'round, after the January thaw & thru until March, when the snot freezes in your nose both day and night! We went skiing and hiking in -10° or below - that's when we used wool, silk and down to keep warm! Brrrrrr!
New Hampshire is the best. Bring a resident it is always interesting to see what people enjoy doing most
Thanks for visiting our state. Vermont is a beautiful homes state. Come again when it is warmer and check out all the wonders the state offers.
Welcome to New England! Hope you love it & have a great time! I'm from NH and loved growing up there. New England boiled dinners were brought to our region by our Irish immigrants. Its usually eaten on Sundays or St.Patricks Day . I dont care for it myself
When I make corn beef and cabbage on ST Patrick’s Day seasoning comes with the meat or you buy it in a bottle and it goes in the pot with the meat,cabbage and the potatoes and carrots if you’d like. That’s how we do in Massachusetts. I hope yours was seasoned because it is so delicious and of course the mustard only thing I think you were missing was vinegar for the cabbage yum
The trick to bowling, is to throw the bowling ball with a good decent force, keeping lowest to the ground, and aim slightly to the left. Because more people are naturally right handed, so they don't take that into consideration, so think their right arm is dead centre. which is why the ball generally falls to the right hand side, and only knocks the last 2 down.
I'm a NH native now in SC. I remember while growing up our boiled dinners always included beets. The leftovers were turned into red flannel hash the next day topped with a fried egg. Haven't had those meals in decades. Would be tasty now.
One night I wanted a bowl of ice cream and we were out of chocolate syrup but then I seen the pancake syrup and thought why not lol and it was really good
Maple syrup is delicious on ice cream!
They have a similar cogwheel to get up the Zugspitze in Germany. I was just there over the summer. Well worth it for anyone who gets there.
You should have driven up Mt. Washington
Another fun fact about Montpelier, Vermont. It is the only state capital in the U.S. without a McDonalds. Welcome to our home state and we’re glad you enjoyed it.
I was born in Vermont and almost all my family is there....we ate boiled dinner alot growing up and still do. We make ours with a beef roast, potatoes, carrots, cabbage and rutabaga! It's super delicious and my kids love it!
You can insulte your hose by using fun noodles. Cut the in half length wise. Put one on bottom then the hose then put the other half on top. In a pinch I've used old towels and wrapped around the hose or an old quilt.
Tip!!!! ATLAS!!!! My generation traveled without navigation systems. Use an Atlas as a backup!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I’m from NH and I’ve only made it to the top of Mt Washington twice (only once on the cog). I highly recommend looking at Mount Washington weather if you are ever feeling really bad about the winter wherever you are… it’s currently 14F with 66 mph winds 😰
Vermont is SO STUNNING when it’s green or when the leaves are up and turning!
Great adventures and Allison you're looking so healthy & stylish with the new outfits. I swear you're looking younger with each video!
she always looks good and I love her outfits!
Great video guys, you have a knack for allowing your viewers to forget the bs of today’s world for a while and indulge in some relaxation with your down to earth simple enjoyment of life. Lovely couple , lovely escapism. Have fun and stay safe guys, thank you and best wishes from Britain 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
6:25 WOW that's such a cool and cute idea for the zipper garden!
Rock of ages and Bohemian Coffee Shop they sure love their Rock N Roll in Vermont ☺️😁
I was born and raised first 10 years in northwest of Vermont. I was just in Burlington and Colchester Vermont visiting family for my grandmother’s surprise birthday party in August.
Boston boy here - Classic New England boiled dinner. Most popular around the time of St Patrick's Day. :)
I just had to tell you that you THEE best opening graphics of any of the travel vloggers (and we watch a BUNCH) of all the travel logs we watch!
I have to say that I have a Ford F150 Old Body Style myself (left to me by my dad) - love that that's your rig- so cool. Those trucks are tough and honestly last much longer and are much confier than modern trucks.
We live in rural Massachusetts and have family in VT. We are always astounded by how beautiful the rural areas of Vermont truly are.
Come to Spencer, Massachusetts- we have lots of old brick buildings from the 1800s.
Corned beef and cabbage is delicious. The seasoning is in with the corned beef and cabbage when cooked.
We recently visited New Hampshire for Fall foliage this year! It was absolutely fantastic! The NH and Vermont mountains are so beautiful! 🙂
We'll for sure have to try to get back for fall. It was still beautiful without the colors, but we can only imagine what it must have looked like 😍
I live in New Hampshire and it is breath taking to walk in the wood's in the fall....the color's along with the cool crisp air and the smell of fall it's so magical
@@maryweldon6849 It was our first trip to New Hampshire, and it was love at first sight! 🙂
@@MyBackyardScience plan a visit for the last week of September and first week of October it's the best color's and temperatures....you will fall in love with this state even more
What a treat to see my very own city, Barre, in your Video. You hit all the important spots, and you tried our maple creamie! Also, I'm glad you like our favorite. bakery. Glad you tried the coffee. I wanted to but decided against it. Love the pastries. Rock of Ages Rocks! Hope you enjoyed the lack of road signs, we have none and we're proud of it. Imagine living in such a beautiful state 24/7. We even love the cold! Thanks for coming!
I absolutely love Vermont! It’s my happy place, my husband went to college up there. You have to get fresh apple cider, cheese from Cabbot, chocolate from lake Champlain chocolate(their tour is fun). We enjoy spending time in north field and going to eat at the common cafe for grilled muffins and sandwiches from the Jericho county store in Jericho,VT
I love that you guys explore the quirky unusual places along the way.
Wow! The ‘boiled dinner’ is what we, in Australia, call silverside, a salted beef that you boil, usually with some garnishes/flavourings like an onion, peppercorns, bay leaves and such. Very commonly served with mashed or boiled potatoes and cabbage.
My older son lived in Burlington, VT for a year (about 11 years ago). Despite the really cold, very snowy weather, he loved the beauty and vibe of Burlington.
Oh awesome! We imagine the snow only makes it more magical ☃️
@nancyross848 - I've only visited Burlington (a few times, being family in Montpelier, VT), but yeah, the 'vibe', is the thing.
I grew up in Vermont and am so glad that you guys finally got here! If you liked the creemee, you should try a Black Raspberry one! Or one with sprinkles!! I love watching you both, you make me want to road trip so badly!!
Go to Stowe , Vermont and visit the VonTrapp motel , or hotel , it is the home of the , VonTrapp family of Sound of Music . Where the Baroness and Baron VonTrapp , is buried at .
Awesome that you are seeing so much of each state you visit. Nice of you to spend time with your followers. That train was pretty cool 😎 👌.
My daughter put the rain issue into perspective for me. She said, “Life doesn’t stop because it rains mom”. Changed my attitude completely. Plans can always be altered and turn out to be just as fun. It’s all about attitude.
That commercial is also how I first found out about the capitol of Vermont.
I'm in Maine.
You have to go to Gettysburg!!! Absolutely Historic.
This part of America looks lovely. So nice to see countryside and scenery.
you hardly hear of any crime happening in these states either
Glad you enjoyed the Green Mountain State.
Safe travels!
If y’all enjoyed that cog railway and haven’t been to the top of Pikes Peak via our cog railway, you need to! I think it’s actually steeper than the one you just did. It is gorgeous, too. Well worth the cost to go to the top. There’s also donuts up there! ❤ Colorado is waiting for you. 😉
Vermont native and lived on edge of Montpelier for 34 years before moving to NC. My next door neighbor was a foreman at the granite quarries. Fun to watch you exploring my areas! And what fun. I have driven up the toll road to the top of Mt Washington but never done the cog railway.
grew up in new england- my mom would make the "boiled meat" dinner - we called it corned beef and cabbage =) by hand all the time. y'all bringing back so many memories!
Your trip to the North East is a great trip. Stay safe. Walk in Peace.
Buy a potable hose that is wrapped with a heater wire that you can plug in and maybe that will help. We have one and if it helps. We bought it on Amazon.
Glad you got to see some of VT and NH, even though you missed out on the foliage. The boiled dinner by the way is just an Irish thing, it's a St. Patrick's day staple. But I love May Kelly's. Be safe
Were you on the AT? GAH, NoCo was my home for 25 years (but I never ate at Mae Kelleys. LOL) oh my goodness, hope you madeit to Boothbay , Maine for the Gardens Aglow lights display.
That maple creemee looked frickin fantastic.
It's nice to see that you scratch it with a British pound,good luck and keep it up.
Y’all eating New England boiled dinner. Yum! And we were eating a version for dinner at home tonight!
Hope you enjoyed my home state, good old NH! Born and raised, just came back from visiting up there and went to the top of Mount Washington...see even us new Englanders know even to get out of dodge before the snow falls! 🤣😂🥶 stay safe
Heated hoses are helpful, or if you fill your water tank and use that, it works better.
I always love your videos...I really want to know where Alison got her boots!
This Maine mama is pretty excited that you are visiting her state! Love your content!
Thanks, Tammy! We've been having some fun and crazy experiences out there...can't wait to share them with you soon 😊
My Dad made up a checklist for breaking camp, and had it laminated. It’s so easy to forget simple things.
E&A - Fun vid as always. When you get down south, Charleston, South Carolina is a pretty neat place. The 'Old Town' is basically a peninsula that pokes into the harbor. It's probably about a mile or two by a half wide and has a paved roadway around its shore, that is strictly for pedestrians and bicycles.
I haven't been back to Charleston for about 5 years, so things might have changed, but this is how I left them.
A mile or three across water from there, is Fort Sumter (being where the theoretical first shots of the Civil War were fired at, and thus, returned). It is an island in sight, and you can catch a fairly inexpensive (about $15 round trip) ferry there (with the ride itself, being a blast), and the US Parks Dep't gives free guided tours at Sumter, every two hours or so. You don't have to stay with the tour, but I would recommend that you do at first and then later walk around the rather expansive (mostly brick) fort, much of it in pretty good condition.
They'll let you know when the last ferry back is (being close to whenever sunset is), so come early, stay late, if you wish. Be warned, it is completely not commercialized, so there are no souvenir stands or food or beverage for sale, so bring that stuff with you.
I'm not sure if, as I never did it, but you might be able to get coffee and minor food on the ferry. Expect there to be families with excited kids, which is great fun on its own. If you can, get to the ship's aft (rear deck), and you can toss whatever you've got, to the generous flock of seagulls to catch, that will always be following such a boat. That, in itself, is a great show.
Kids, seagulls, great fun. Seagulls are pretty big birds as well (close up), but they never actually come on board and ruff up the kids, but you could warn them that they might (as I have done).
Children, if you don't behave, maybe I'll just call in the birds, which of course, the older kids knew I couldn't do, as often threatened, but never delivered goods, but it did make the point. Come on kids, keep it together, amongst yourselves, and that would work, in that it kept them focused, together as a team, being sort of required on trips like this, as there are small bits of danger available to a rapscallion.
Old Town Charleston is considered a pretty good Foodie place, so with a little research, I'm sure you could find some establishments worthy. There or no Walmart's or even Supermarkets there (that I ever saw), but rather just small restaurants, grocery, hardware stores and the like, amidst a grid of streets and sidewalks, surrounded by mostly old Victorian era homes, being very bicycle, pedestrian, and dog friendly.
There are cars there, as it is basically a residential neighborhood, but I'd leave mine at the gate (there is no gate, btw), as a car would only be an encumbrance. Honestly, I don't recall where I would park my car 'at the door', but as well, I recall it not being a pain to, or costing any money. I think Old Town Charleston makes it easy for you to leave your car behind, which I highly recommend you do, as a car is just not needed there.
You could easily walk the perimeter and then foray into the middle a bit, all within a few hours, or even make a day of it, if you cared to.
It's a real 'Leave it to Beaver' sort of small town 'neighborhood' vibe, and surprisingly welcoming for being so commercially unconcerned with you. It's very pristine, very 'real life', and very recommended.
Sorry to have to say this, but I'm an older white guy, and as I've often enough been there with people of various colors, I've never noticed, nor have had it mentioned to me, any form of prejudice by the people of Charleston, SC. So, I considered it as 'racist' free, as can be, particularly for down south, where one does need to worry about such things, from time to time.
I don't know if you can rent a bicycle there, but if you could, I'd consider it, as so much is within that sort of range of a day.
If you go north a short way up from Old Town, you'll come upon the Ravenel Bridge, which is well worth seeing on its own, by car, bicycle or foot, and friendly to all. The bridge itself is beautiful, and the waters and lands it crosses over are quite beautiful as well. One of my favorite things to do, was just to take a walk across it and back on a Sunday morning, for no real reason but for the pleasure of walking the dog, and saying 'Hi' to the others, being bicyclists, joggers and such, doing the same. Even when crowed, it's not.
On the northern end of the bridge, you will see an old WWII Battleship type thing, well worth taking a closer look at. If you want to go onboard for the tour, it'll cost some money. I don't know how much (as I never did it - on that ship, anyway), but it's the US Navy, so it couldn't be much, and the price of admission, I'd suspect, goes to the upkeep and maintenance of the vessel, so well worth it on many levels. Just watch your head, being that if you do go onboard, you can easily bump it hard on some rather unforgiving steel overheads.
There are some other 'historical' sorts of things to see around there, for free. If you take it like the walk in the park that it is, you'll be pretty sure to have fun, but as well, there are no, or few, concession stands available (which I find a pleasure).
The road over the Bridge is a standard 4 lane highway, with generous protected pedestrian shoulders on both sides (or at least the East side, that I always walked), and going north, continues as a 'causeway' over various creeks and wetlands, and being with a good eye, you can watch the porpoise swim lazy, feeding up and down them.
I can't give you exact directions, but if you head north, shorewise, past the bridge, you can turn off to where the road returns to being a 2 lane sort of State Road, and you will bump into some small town activity, per usual, some being worth noticing.
Probably at least 5 miles from the Ravenel bridge, there is a small 'town', which is really just a canal bulkhead of maybe 500 feet on both sides, funneling the harbor waters to the creek. Either side of it is chock-full of Bars and Restaurants, and it is a very friendly place as well, considering. Family friendly, I can fairly say.
You can spy the porpoise swimming under the overpass, as the pelicans stand on top of the 'piling posts' you pass, meeting you eye to eye, at a mere arm's length away (ok, 6 feet away, but seriously close), from the road, up close and personal, whereas at dusk, they spread their wings wide, to dry off the day.
You could reach out and touch them, but I wouldn't dare to. They're pretty big birds, and not at all shy. You can almost hear them whisper when you walk past, 'Yeah, keep walking, human', as if they're wearing leather jackets and singing doo-wop on a street corner in Brooklyn, kicking Frankie Valli to the curb. Yeah, they've got attitude, right enough so, but are friendly, like most, unless messed with.
Anyway, I highly recommend Charleston, South Carolina.
Gotta Love The Back Roads In Vermont LoL
I Lived In Vermont My Whole Life And Only Seen A Few Moose..
Also Theirs A Few Dead Body’s In The Bottom Of That Quarry
Montpelier is also the only state capital that does not have a McDonald’s.
Vermont also used to be the only date without a Target. But they have targets in VT now.
Vermont is gorgeous!! You should check out Morning Movement Coffee Roasters in Stowe, Vermont...they are van lifers too who just opened a roastery there...are are about to open it soon. My cousin lives in Burlington and was married in a gorgeous church there....most beautiful wedding I've ever been too. Vermont is magical! Wish I could go back and see my cousin...he's one of a kind! :)
OMG as you said Montpelier I thought about that commercial. My sister was learning the capitals around the time of that commercial. #nostagiavibes 🤩
Omgoodness that road looks like the road that goes to the movie The Hills Have Eyes
When the misses and i were looking for land in 86 we stayed at Bear Brook state park in Barnard VT. Out youngest fell out of the hammok on her face. Got us thinking... where is there a hospital? Was over an hour away. So we ruled out Vermont.
Cool!! They have one of the track trains on Snowden, in Wales! My favorite country.
We just finished up our van life in Vermont. Headed to warmer places now. Enjoy loves 💜
Great plan! Hope you enjoyed it up there as much as we did :)
R u quitting van life ???
Hi guy`s hot mustard sauce [ not cold ] is the sauce to have with corned beef, it`s so scrumptious
I grew up in Williamstown Vermont, the next town from Barre VT! We used to go swimming in one of the Quarry hole be(Jones')
Vermont, yay!!! 😊 One of my favorite states I’ve never been to! 😂 Seriously!! It’s just beautiful and will visit one of these days! Safe travels y’all!! 🙌
Cool I’m from Montpelier, my Dad designed the Fire-station that you were in front of! Enjoy VT
Lived on the east coast for years but never really rv north of Virginia. Have to do it one day in our Big Rig. Thanks for sharing.
Made my first trip to Vermont and New Hampshire last month. We drove up to the summit of Mt. Washington. So incredibly beautiful with the fall foliage. We also hiked to the summit of Mt. Mansfield. So much to see. Love those 2 states.
Allison your hair looks Beautiful! 👍🏻👍🏻
Can't say the same for Eric
Well hello adventures! Just an idea that we use to prevent pipe or hose freezing. We use pool noodles, that are very cheap, and slice one side open lengthwise. Then wrap them around the hose. Sometimes we cover the water faucet with something too. Maybe try noodle? It's much colder on the East coast. May be worth a try. Noodles are fun in the water for warmer temps. Dual use I guess. Thanks for the great travel video. That was some fine driving and backing ya'll. Hugs.
Oh, what a great tip! We'll definitely need to start using little hacks like that if we can't get out of the cold in time 😅 Love that the noodles are dual purpose!
Corned beef is usually cooked with pickling spices which lends a whole lot of flavor too. I love corned beef!
Vermont is one place we still haven’t visited, but wow it looks awesome! 😍 Also we are team dog, y’all would be so cute with a pup! 💜 -Ben and Ang
I may move around throughout the years, but I'll always end up back in Vermont. You wouldn't believe how safe I feel even in the biggest city at night in vt
Alison, I’m looking for Chelsea boot. What brand are your boots and how do you like them? I figure as a full time travel you are very picky with your shoes.
My parents are Irish and that traditional ,meal in Ireland is, Bacon and Cabbage, which would be boiled with the Potatoes yes.
Really appreciate the lack of diet culture talk this week.
Love seeing what you guys get up to!
Another fun fact about Montpelier it's one of the only city capitals that doesn't have a McDonald's! And yes Vermont is all mountains and trees. Not always great turn arounds. And most roads are the scenic route lol. Glad you went to a maple syrup farm. And yes it takes a lot of sap to make a gallon of maple syrup but it's so worth it. Not sure I would want a creemee in cold weather but you can never go wrong with VT maple.
Not many people visit Vermont, I hope you enjoyed our weird state.
Vermont is a small state but it has a small population . Ps make sure your download the routes before you go because many of the areas up there have no cell service .
I used to live in the seacoast region of NH for 7 years. Miss the state!
I was born and raised in Vermont been to all the places you have been I lived in Windsor vermont and yes love my corn beef and cabbage, ❤❤
As always we love y'all's quirkiness! Such a beautiful state and you did such a great job showing it!
I love your videos!!! You guys really care about the people who watch your videos ❤ always listing the towns, restaurants and attractions for us to mark.
I really appreciate it 🥰
thank you🙏
I have a tear down set up checklist for our rv. It really helps. And the longer u rv the more stuff u will miss without it cause u get more stuff. Safe travels y’all.
I use to live around the corner from the variety in the mid seventy. Goto Charlie O in Barre.
Fun fact that boiled what meal is a traditional Irish meal and it's very Common in the UK in fact with a little bit of British gravy it's one of my favourites
Lovely to see the board getting scratched! Safe trip!
Theres lots of neat little places in Maine and quaint towns.. you picked a good time to go when theres no bugs.. we have incredible beautiful warm weather this fall. You guys had good timing. Hard to get to the summit on the cog. Socked in more times than it’s clear. I actually live in Nh. Down towards the lakes region.
Did you go to Hope Cemetery in Barre, Vermont? It’s noted for beautiful carved granite tombstones.
Well, I hope the snow keeps staying away because I'm not looking forward to MORE of the South. It would be so great to see you go WEST for a change!
It's time to get a dog!! A dog is an awesome RV intruder alert alarm system and will love you two unconditionally!! Will you be going to Connecticut next? Please stop in a little town called Ridgefield! My hometown!
I live here in NH at the seacoast, I love it here in New Hampshire and love everything of New England.
It’s fun watching you in these spots because NH and VT were memorable vacations when I was younger. Preface with I’m from MN, so it was a long drive to get there.
Went on a vacation to NH in the late 90’s. We stayed in North Conway, NH, rode the chair lift up Attitash, drove up Mt. Washington in our Chevy Astro Conversion Van (that was fun!), and made a ‘day trip’ to Ben & Jerry’s (it took us a day but 50 miles through the mountains is not 50 miles on a straight road), as well as a trip to Gloucester Harbor to go whale watching. It was one my favorite vacations by far!
So cool to see you in these places now! I’d love to go back again and see all of the beauty you’re seeing now. My trip was late spring/early summer, so it was probably different.
Thanks!!!
Thanks for coming to my home towns of Barre and Montpelier. I think I can recognize your camping spot was that Vermont compost?? You were visiting within 2 miles of my house….. if I had only known….. My dad and grandfather were both granite cutters. ❤ Most people shoot for Stow and Burlington so thanks for coming to my town. Safe journeys.
corned beef is cooked with pickling spices usually. mine always comes with it.
Oh, man...corned beef and cabbage is the best! I grew up eating "New England boiled dinner". It's good with mustard, but the real key ingredient is apple cider vinegar on the meat and cabbage. SO GOOD!!
Vermont has been on our list for a long time. Now I want to go even more! Allison, you definitely need a pup. You can adopt a rescue that is about 2 or 3 ( past the puppy chewing and potty training stage) and have a dog that will love you forever for saving its life. Yes, I believe they do know that. You could get a poodle or schnauzer if you want a dog that does not shed. Thanks for bringing us along! ❤️ 🙏Jane in SC
So glad you had a chance to visit New England. We live about 20 miles from Mt. Washington and can see it from our living room - always amazing! If you ever need a place to stay in Maine, let us know. Enjoy your trip!
I've been on Mt Washington Railways on my honeymoon few years ago. Vermount is one of my favorite US State
I grew up in the Barre-Montpelier area. Nice to see some familiar sights.
