Nothing better than seeing TR visit places we just visited! Glad you enjoyed the Samoa Cookhouse. I guess it would be a little weird eating by yourself, but 13.95 for all you can eat is very good and when we were there everyone was friendly and talkative. Another good one, Robert. Thanks!
Gooooood morning Robert! Thank you for the new video. That area is so unique. Have a great day. Remember that we keep you and your family in our prayers. Fly pelican, fly! 🌴👍😎
Hello Traveling Robert! Such a beautiful drive amongst the majestic Redwoods. Northern California is so beautiful. I must say this though, the Oregon coast may be even more spectacular. You will see spectacular places such as the Oregon Dunes, the Sea Lion Caves, and the absolutely spectacular area called Cape Perpetua! We will be stopping a lot along Oregon's coastline. I really enjoyed the video. Looking forward to the next video series featuring Oregon! Oh and btw, if you can, take a detour from Cannon Beach and head east through Portland and into the Columbia River Gorge Region to check out the absolutely beautiful Multnomah Falls.
Amazing and awe inspiring video! Loved the towering and old redwood trees and forests. This episode of the 2919 series is marvelous, thanks for letting me tag along!
LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH!!! Out of all the places we visited in our RV days, this is one of our faves!! Blessings from a Husband/Wife Music and Farming Duo!! ✌️💚🙌
Another amazing episode. Of all the channels I am subscribed to, only yours do I watch from start to finish and never get bored. I'm more of an SUV RVer, I never considered casinos to stay in. So much inspiration, thank you!
''Ok here's the deal, if you have 10$ burning in yo pocket and you always wanted to drive into a tree...... Ya sure why not?!'' HAHAHA you made my day Robert!
I'm just starting this video, and I'm going to enjoy my little adventure here with you this Sunday morning, and I love looking at giant trees...you make things fun and interesting!
Thank you Robert , you take me places I just can’t go to as I am in wheelchair . And the redwoods was on my bucket list . I am a Woman with a bucket list that’s not real long but too many places I can’t go now , waited to long I guess . I do so enjoy watching your videos . Thank you so much 😊
impressive, I cried that there was only squoa parc. America is a continent, it is not a country, it is an open-air museum. each state has its own charm and beauty. long live America.
Robert I've always wanted to see the redwoods in person. You have really encouraged me to make a plan and do it!! Thanks again for a awesome video as usual
Impresive the height of the redwoods but the sequoias impressed me much more. They are more massive than the redwoods. But both species are my favorite trees
When you do, make sure you see the Redwood National and State parks on HWY 199 out of Crescent City....Also Jedediah State park along the Smyth River....
That area from Westport to leggett became ghost towns after it became illegal to cut down redwoods. I’ve driven through the chandelier tree twice. It was pretty cool the first time I did it because I never had seen a tree so massive. But last fall a friend and I did a trip on avenue of the giants. What a fantastic time. The year before we went to lady bird johnson grove and stout grove further north of the avenue of the giants. I think it’s something everyone should experience. And if you get to do a ranger walk, do it! The avenue of the giants is more commercial and built up because people live all around the trees. It’s not included in national parks land. Actually the largest trees are not on avenue of the giants except for one fallen tree. The redwoods are not the largest tree but they are the tallest. Largest are the sequoia. Oldest are also in CA in the white mountains near bishop, the bristlecone pine. But the redwoods are almost eternal because of how they reproduce, not so much by cone but by cloning themselves in root and trunk burls. So the original trees may be long gone but the original roots from thousands of years ago live on in cloned trees
We enjoyed this video very much! Loved your tour through the majestic Redwoods. No better way to start a Sunday than watching your adventures😊 Thanks Robert!
Thanks for another fun trip, Robert. I'm glad you appreciated the magic of the redwood forest, with the ferns and fallen trees. I expect to see a leprechaun peeking around a tree. I live in Santa Rosa, and have travelled those roads up to Eureka and back. I drove my '53 Packard, instead of a trailer like you did. I also enjoyed the Cheese Factory in Loleta. Keep on travelling.
We went on our first trip in our trailer to Idaho, Oregon to the redwoods, Reno then back home. We saw Paul and his side kick too! 😊 Crescent City was pretty cool. Enjoying the trip! Thanks for the video. Bill
Loved the drone shot of the fog and the tree. I’m pretty sure I saw the Lockness Monster in Freshwater Lagoon LOL. The Giant Redwoods and Big Tree were amazing! Are you allowed to hike down from the Ski Trail? Thank you for being so kind to speak to us at the Tampa RV Show, you really are a movie star! Wayne and Carrie
Thanks again Robert for another awesome & outstanding video. For those of us that will never get to see places such as this...we can see it through the eyes of Traveling Robert! Looking forward to the Alaska trip this summer! How about this for an idea for a podcast series...The Islands of Florida! Close to home & yet so many places to explore. Thanks again Robert... you're the best!!!
Thank you so much for posting this... I watched the last video and it stopped b4 the redwoods and I was like noooooooo hahahha. Through a series of events my husband and father have fallen on bad health for the last 6 years and I'm our support now and I also am going through YOLO.. i will be going to the redwoods and Oregon's coast and desert and flying back home...will be traveling with one of my granddaughters and I depend on your videos to show me what I REALLY want to see . ...your songs keep me upbeat at work and focused on my budget lol I'm going to the kitchen to cook and enjoy this video.. BTW I love your voice....so soothing...thank you for such informative and enjoyable videos!!
Hello Robert from Dunnellon Florida! So look forward to spending Sunday mornings with you! That was a beautiful trip. We did that one almost 25 years ago. Hope to do again this summer with our daughter. She moved to Oregon 5 years ago. Spent the holidays out there this year. Thank you again for all your awesome videos!! Drive safe!!
If you're in Loleta again stay at the Humboldt county fairgrounds (there is a fee) and then you are near Ferndale for the evening which has great victorian architecture, bars, restaurants, and usually you can find live music. In arcata, the oriental buffet is great, and right off 101. Trinidad is fun to explore, and just north of there is Patrick's Point, which is one of my all time favorite campgrounds, but can be hard to get into. We used to make fake giant footprints in random areas along rivers, etc. Lol. It was the 70s at the height of the Bigfoot craze.
Such a wonderful area to drive through! Those Magnificent trees are surely a treasure to behold ! I was fortunate to be here in 2016 , and will never forget the Experience. Seems like we would have about a 6 hour window ,from around 10 am To 4 pm Without any marine layer or fog , this was in mid August. A wonderful video Robert, thanks for taking us along with you,! 1-10 this is of course an “10”.😎🚐
Hey Robert, this trip has been an awesome one! My wife and I are enjoying it so much, we have vowed to make this same trip in the next couple years! We don't have a camper, but are thinking of bringing a big van with our children. Thanks for another great episode!
@@mystery4681 They are a 'pest' weed. If left unchecked they spread into crop land. Every state has 'pest' plants. Such as Wild Plum in Iowa and Thistle in many other places. There used to be fines levied years ago for letting Wild Plum and Thistle grow in a fence row. Iowa gave up on Wild Plum nearly 20 years ago and now it is making a comeback. I find it very pretty when it is in bloom.
I've watches your videos for a while now. Very relaxing. Next month we are going to the Redwoods! Haven't been there since a kid now I'm taking my kid! Someday I want to just travel all around!
#156 In Michigan, we have the Hartwick Pines State Park with some tall trees, original forest. There is camping there too! And plenty of trails. Some Bears, also!
Saw your time stamp and remembered that's the day I discovered you. I was behind you in traffic in Fort Bragg on my birthday. That's what led to me looking you up. I'm so happy that you had great advertising. Love your videos.
Thank you for taking us along on your trip. We LOVE watching your videos. We actually watch your videos as a family. We can't watch them until we are all together in the living room. It's a special event. We like your music so much we actually played it on a past road trip to Kentucky. Of course we all sing along. The one thing we really appreciate about you Robert is that you are perfectly honest about your opinions on things. Cost of parks, attractions, and even food. If the food isn't good, you will tell us. If the service isn't up to par, you tell us that too. And you are not ugly about it, you are perfectly polite, and tell us it is just your opinion. Could be that it was an "off" day for the place, or food, etc. We really appreciate honest opinion. You are wonderful. Keep up the great work on the videos. And I can honestly see you with your own show on PBS one day.
Great video! Right across from the Trees of Mystery is the Motel of Trees, which we've stayed at. About 50 yards north of the motel (same side of road) is a trail that leads to the beach. It's about 1 mile hike roundtrip but what a great view when you get there! Thank you, as always, for the wonderful visits.
Another great vid with great camera work. The prehistoric feel with all the ferns reminds me of the bottom of some of the gorges here in TN along the Cumberland plateau, minus the giant redwoods of course.
The whole Pacific Coast would be great to see on 2 wheels👊😎👊 Im ridin', ridin' on my Harley, wherever i want to be, because im free, on my Harley, yeah....
Robert!, you passed me at 7:12. I was the black Ram mega cab long bed dually towing the Montana 5th wheel exiting the gas station. Judging by my direction, I was heading home to Arcata after a trip we took to the Bay Area. I’m glad you seem to have enjoyed your trip through Humboldt
@@bonitaohyea9258: Great place to live. I have been several times in Kronach, stayed at the RV-parking Hammermühle and walked up to the fortress. Kronach is always part of my Franconian spa (Bad Steben, Therme Obernsees, Bayreuth, Bad Rodach) and beer tour (Aufseß = The community of Aufsess has been listed in the Guinness Book of Records as world record-holder for the greatest brewery density in the world.; Bamberg; Coburg etc)
@@camperab never to late I agree. I see my grandchildren weekly now. If I move there I would only see them every 2 to 3 years. I would love to move back but not at that price.
Hello Traveling Robert😊😊🎸🎸, I have revisited the Northern California video footage. Such a beautiful drive through the Redwoods and SPECTACULAR coastline. Someday I will drive the Northern California and Oregon coast. I'm coming to Miami and KEY WEST🎵🎵🎵 late May or early June. I want to see the PELICANS!!
The thing about the northern CA coast, it’s always very moist and foggy year round which is the type of temperate rainforest climate that coastal redwood need. The drury scenic drive is much more pristine than the avenue of the giants. The trees that fall that support the growth of a new tree is called a nurse log. Redwoods are famous for that in addition to cloning themselves. If I could recommend a redwood trail, trillium falls hike, and nearby fern canyon that has no redwoods but is stunning. And the nearby beach and meadows are full of elk. But for fern canyon you have to leave behind the trailer. You need a high clearance vehicle to get to it or walk VERY far. But that area around Elk meadow is incredible. There is a day use fee for fern canyon but not trillium falls redwood trail
Beautiful photography. To be clear, Northern CA redwoods are known for their height and the ones known for their diameter are in Sequoia National Park in central CA. All of them gorgeous.
Wow, my family and I were camping at Richardson Grove SP when you went by! How cool is that!? We camp there every summer. It's beautiful and worth it if you visit the area again.
I'd recommend also visiting Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. There's the Pacific Ocean to view, camping, trails through giant Redwoods and a beautiful large meadow with seasonal visits by elk does so tame that you can get within a few feet to see them grazing up close; they are surprisingly large animals, nearly the size of a horse, and the bucks segregate just a few miles away! Prairie Creek might be the most beautiful spot in that area! I'm planning on a visit this summer, just a 3-4 hour road trip from my home in the Sierra Nevada (which is quite beautiful too). Thanks, Robert! Nice video of one of my favorite areas of Cal. I usually like to visit Paul Bunyan on my way to Oregon, Washington & Vancouver. OK, now I'm going to watch your video on Yosemite, the *most* beautiful place I've seen out of a dozen countries & 46 states!
Wow i didnt know those trees were really that tall. I wished the sky was clear so we could see the bay but like u said u will be back one day. Thank you as always i cant wait for the esp. 😍😍😍
Robert, your Videos are pretty nice! We are also at the Oregon coast next Summer. Maybe.... we will see you on your next trip to Oregon! Greetings from Germany 😊
This is an incredibly beautiful area for sure, so glad you filmed it! Just know, once you've seen one Redwood forest, you've pretty much seen them all. I love Redwoods, but would pick one area (typically Muir Woods) and leave it at that. If you go back, try stopping in the Alexander Valley and doing some wine tastings. They are affordable there, high quality, much less crowded than Napa or Sonoma, and generally have RV parking. Best of all, between the coast and the Alexander Valley, there is a Redwood forest you can drive through! Keep up the great videos!
Never been in a tree before that was 😎. Ten dollars ain't too bad if you make the most of it while you are there. Thanks for showing the Redwoods that's as close to seeing them I will get because of my health.
Thank you for doing these great and entertaining videos Robert keep up the good work. We are learning and putting down places we want to visit. We are from Australia and are saving up so we can come over to the US in a few years and travel around for a year in a RV
Great video. The Redwood trees are very impressive. The sunset was spectacular. I love sunsets because each one is different. Congrats.... I'll see you on the road.....>>>
Love this video. I have done this trip several times through the Redwoods and the Avenue of the Giants. Next time you are on the Avenue of the Giants make a stop at the Founders Grove. As soon as you start the trail there is a 350 foot Redwood tree! Am looking forward to your take on the Oregon Coast, one of my very favorite places! As I matter of fact I was there over this past weekend-a 6 or 7 hour trip from my home in Vancouver, BC. P.S. the Keys is on my bucket list! Keep up the good work!
Ahh... July on the North Coast is almost always gloomy. However, redwoods depend on the fog for their existence. By by late September, the weather improves and by October, November and even December it can be spectacular. Ten miles further inland the sun is shining. Cheers and thanks for the videos.
The Samoa cook house is mostly known for fried chicken dinner . I’ve visit twice after 10 day river runs in Northern California , after 10 nights on the river this Dinner was a huge treat. Well worth the stop. Hope to visit again this summer if my travels take to California
Tick country. I used to live and work in Northern Ca. (Ukiah). ((fyi: Ukiah is anglicised form of Yokaya (meaning: deep valley) - from the Pomo Indian language ) The Pomo were known for their intricate basket weaving. Thanks Robert! Great tour!
Robert that pesky marine layer is what sustains those large trees! @33:50 kids are jumping up to touch Paul Bunyan's bull balls. lmao Boy you were grumpy. So out of character for you. It is so nice to drive through that part of country.
The sky tram is pretty cool... sure they could clean the windows ( & I bet they do but with so many people and kids it will get dirty fast & if you brought a little bottle of glass cleaner I'm sure they'd give you a minute or so for a quick clean.... 😆 ) &`as far as the fog ( aka: marine layer ) well you can only blame mother nature on that one ! 😉 ) Would love to see the big trees some day.... I did see a hollowed out Redwood at a county fair that was made into a little home 😲 Yes sir pretty amazing ! ✌😎 Thank you for another great video... you got me hooked I've been going through all of the past episodes ! 😎
Bummer, the Lolita Cheese factory is permanently closed. Oh wow! I had supper at the Samoa Cookhouse with my uncle Jerry. It was the spring, back in 1969. Thank you for the very fond memory.
Nothing better than seeing TR visit places we just visited! Glad you enjoyed the Samoa Cookhouse. I guess it would be a little weird eating by yourself, but 13.95 for all you can eat is very good and when we were there everyone was friendly and talkative. Another good one, Robert. Thanks!

''Ok here's the deal, if you have 10$ burning in yo pocket and you always wanted to drive into a tree...... Ya sure why not?!'' HAHAHA you made my day Robert!
Magnificent. And that sunset at the end was a beautiful way to end the day. ❤
Another quality video from you Robert and now I will have to add some more to my traveling list of places to go.😎
I'm just starting this video, and I'm going to enjoy my little adventure here with you this Sunday morning, and I love looking at giant trees...you make things fun and interesting!
Still the best TH-camr ever - best music ever

Best N Cal coast road trip video for overlanders on the TH-cam universe, bar none! Thanks Robert, enjoyed it immensely and very informitive. 👍
If you ever do this trip again, I highly recommend going from the North to the South.
Great Video...I Live in Southern Oregon...JUST a Stones through away from the Coast,,,I LOVE that drive over there...THANKS for the share
impressive, I cried that there was only squoa parc.
America is a continent, it is not a country, it is an open-air museum.
each state has its own charm and beauty.
long live America.
Yes Robert,
The bark of the redwoods are fire resistant and help the trees fight diseases and bugs .
Robert I've always wanted to see the redwoods in person. You have really encouraged me to make a plan and do it!! Thanks again for a awesome video as usual
Impresive the height of the redwoods but the sequoias impressed me much more. They are more massive than the redwoods. But both species are my favorite trees
When you do, make sure you see the Redwood National and State parks on HWY 199 out of Crescent City....Also Jedediah State park along the Smyth River....
I will have to visit the Redwoods when things go back to normal. Thank you Robert.
Just found out I can watch episodes early from the newsletter, I'm so excited!!
That area from Westport to leggett became ghost towns after it became illegal to cut down redwoods. I’ve driven through the chandelier tree twice. It was pretty cool the first time I did it because I never had seen a tree so massive. But last fall a friend and I did a trip on avenue of the giants. What a fantastic time.

Such a wonderful area to drive through!
Those Magnificent trees are surely a treasure to behold !
I was fortunate to be here in 2016 , and will never forget the
Experience.
Seems like we would have about a 6 hour window ,from around 10 am To 4 pm

Queen Ann's Lace is considered a noxious weed in Indiana. I have it in my flower garden anyway.

Hello Traveling Robert😊😊🎸🎸, I have revisited the Northern California video footage. Such a beautiful drive through the Redwoods and SPECTACULAR coastline. Someday I will drive the Northern California and Oregon coast. I'm coming to Miami and KEY WEST🎵🎵🎵 late May or early June. I want to see the PELICANS!!
This was an amazing video! I would love to visit the California Redwoods! Ohh and Sky Trail, wow!
The thing about the northern CA coast, it’s always very moist and foggy year round which is the type of temperate rainforest climate that coastal redwood need. The drury scenic drive is much more pristine than the avenue of the giants. The trees that fall that support the growth of a new tree is called a nurse log. Redwoods are famous for that in addition to cloning themselves. If I could recommend a redwood trail, trillium falls hike, and nearby fern canyon that has no redwoods but is stunning. And the nearby beach and meadows are full of elk. But for fern canyon you have to leave behind the trailer. You need a high clearance vehicle to get to it or walk VERY far. But that area around Elk meadow is incredible. There is a day use fee for fern canyon but not trillium falls redwood trail
Just came across your Chanel and I LOVE it! Love all the Vistas. Keep the videos coming 👍
Thank you! Welcome!
Beautiful photography. To be clear, Northern CA redwoods are known for their height and the ones known for their diameter are in Sequoia National Park in central CA. All of them gorgeous.
Wow, my family and I were camping at Richardson Grove SP when you went by! How cool is that!? We camp there every summer. It's beautiful and worth it if you visit the area again.
The redwood trees footages are pretty funny. You seem to vacillate as to whether you like it or not. 😂
I'd recommend also visiting Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. There's the Pacific Ocean to view, camping, trails through giant Redwoods and a beautiful large meadow with seasonal visits by elk does so tame that you can get within a few feet to see them grazing up close; they are surprisingly large animals, nearly the size of a horse, and the bucks segregate just a few miles away! Prairie Creek might be the most beautiful spot in that area! I'm planning on a visit this summer, just a 3-4 hour road trip from my home in the Sierra Nevada (which is quite beautiful too).
Thanks, Robert! Nice video of one of my favorite areas of Cal. I usually like to visit Paul Bunyan on my way to Oregon, Washington & Vancouver.
OK, now I'm going to watch your video on Yosemite, the *most* beautiful place I've seen out of a dozen countries & 46 states!
I just traveled on one of your routes...it was my first rv trip.Working on my second next week.truly enjoy your channel ! Peace
Wow i didnt know those trees were really that tall. I wished the sky was clear so we could see the bay but like u said u will be back one day. Thank you as always i cant wait for the esp. 😍😍😍
Beautiful Robert! ♥️♥️
Robert, your Videos are pretty nice! We are also at the Oregon coast next Summer. Maybe.... we will see you on your next trip to Oregon! Greetings from Germany 😊
This is an incredibly beautiful area for sure, so glad you filmed it! Just know, once you've seen one Redwood forest, you've pretty much seen them all. I love Redwoods, but would pick one area (typically Muir Woods) and leave it at that. If you go back, try stopping in the Alexander Valley and doing some wine tastings. They are affordable there, high quality, much less crowded than Napa or Sonoma, and generally have RV parking. Best of all, between the coast and the Alexander Valley, there is a Redwood forest you can drive through! Keep up the great videos!
Never been in a tree before that was 😎. Ten dollars ain't too bad if you make the most of it while you are there. Thanks for showing the Redwoods that's as close to seeing them I will get because of my health.
Wow awesome those are huge and very tall awesome camera work too thank you so Robert Jim and Bernadette
Hi Robert. I’ve had such a lousy week. Thanks for allowing me to escape reality for 47 minutes.
Thank you for doing these great and entertaining videos Robert keep up the good work. We are learning and putting down places we want to visit.
We are from Australia and are saving up so we can come over to the US in a few years and travel around for a year in a RV
Holaaa!! No me canso de viajar! Maravilloso!! Gracias Robert!!❤
Great video. The Redwood trees are very impressive. The sunset was spectacular. I love sunsets because each one is different. Congrats.... I'll see you on the road.....>>>
Love this video. I have done this trip several times through the Redwoods and the Avenue of the Giants. Next time you are on the Avenue of the Giants make a stop at the Founders Grove. As soon as you start the trail there is a 350 foot Redwood tree! Am looking forward to your take on the Oregon Coast, one of my very favorite places! As I matter of fact I was there over this past weekend-a 6 or 7 hour trip from my home in Vancouver, BC. P.S. the Keys is on my bucket list! Keep up the good work!
Ahh... July on the North Coast is almost always gloomy. However, redwoods depend on the fog for their existence. By by late September, the weather improves and by October, November and even December it can be spectacular. Ten miles further inland the sun is shining. Cheers and thanks for the videos.
I dig some of the new tunes, cool!. We are going back on the road again this summer. Heading west on US 2 and returning east on US 12.
The Samoa cook house is mostly known for fried chicken dinner . I’ve visit twice after 10 day river runs in Northern California , after 10 nights on the river this Dinner was a huge treat. Well worth the stop. Hope to visit again this summer if my travels take to California
Next time I hope to try the fried chicken too.
Tick country. I used to live and work in Northern Ca. (Ukiah). ((fyi: Ukiah is anglicised form of Yokaya (meaning: deep valley) - from the Pomo Indian language )
The Pomo were known for their intricate basket weaving.
Thanks Robert! Great tour!
Been to the Samo Cook many times. Last was in the 80, loved the homemade bread ALOHA
Robert that pesky marine layer is what sustains those large trees! @33:50 kids are jumping up to touch Paul Bunyan's bull balls. lmao Boy you were grumpy. So out of character for you. It is so nice to drive through that part of country.
Love all your videos Señor Robert , muchas gracias !
So many good memories here.
The sky tram is pretty cool... sure they could clean the windows ( & I bet they do but with so many people and kids it will get dirty fast & if you brought a little bottle of glass cleaner I'm sure they'd give you a minute or so for a quick clean.... 😆 )
&`as far as the fog ( aka: marine layer ) well you can only blame mother nature on that one ! 😉 )
Would love to see the big trees some day.... I did see a hollowed out Redwood at a county fair that was made into a little home 😲
Yes sir pretty amazing ! ✌😎
Thank you for another great video... you got me hooked I've been going through all of the past episodes ! 😎
Bummer, the Lolita Cheese factory is permanently closed.
Oh wow! I had supper at the Samoa Cookhouse with my uncle Jerry. It was the spring, back in 1969.
Thank you for the very fond memory.
Never seen trees that large in person. Just have to figure when I can make a "driving to the west" TV trip. Nice job Robert!
If some day you decide to do it. Visit Redwood national park (coast) and Sequoia National Park (sierra nevada) both in California
love those trees, great sunset
