    Another great video, with a beautiful, fascinating landscape . We always get a chuckle on how you and Sandra get straight to the point with sharp, witted puns. My husband and I started watching the channel during your Alaska travel adventures of 2023. We live in West Central Alberta, Canada.
    We look forward to future videos.

    I worked at Voyager RV Resort for 19 years. Don, your escort in the cowboy hat, is a good friend of mine. Was nice to see your shots of Voyager and also the Sonoran Desert Museum. We like to take our guests/visitors there, but not in the summer. Way too hot. Have been following you two for a couple of years now and enjoy your content. Live in Vail, Az now and am fully retired. We full-timed for 9 years in a 5th wheel, although not as big as yours. We did tour the SpaceCraft factory years ago. Loved it. Safe travels...

      Thanks. We really enjoy Voyager, just wish we had a roomier site but they did fit us in the park so it was great. Voyager was great during covid, offering us a monthly deal for April to give us a place to stay. Don's a nice guy and knew we'd fit since he used to drive truck. Museum is wonderful but definitely not in the summer! Aloha

      I did part of that museum in July. It definitely was hot! Got a wee bit dehydrated too, but found a pop machine so was good. This Canadian was soaking up some vitamin D! Loved the area, I was the one of the few walking around outside. I also had my driver’s window open with the AC blowing.

      100% agree... "Camping" today in RV RESORTS ( NOTHING more than HUGE organized Parking Lots ) NUTZ to BUTTZ. NO Trees, and very little Grass. That's NOT CAMPING. I worked for 7 years in an actual San Diego County Parks CAMPGROUND while the wife worked in a local KOA "Campground". I KNOW "CAMPING" !!!

    First time commenting on your trips, I’m a 84 year old former small unit camper with kids, 60 years ago! Home in Florida for 25 years and now a widow! My husband and I took 3 trips around old USA starting in Florida heading to I 10 west to CA to N to Washington then east towards Maine and down back to FL! Always staying in hotels or motels usually a month long trip always non interstate roads! Many memories, I love watching you drive that very big rig!

I particularly enjoy your humor, camping coverage, tips and excellent photography of interviews and your walks. The aerials add a nice location touch also. As an aside, I had a neighbor named David, that his voice, laugh and appearance could make him a doppelganger to your David! Keep the travels coming!

    Loved the wildlife photos and videos. The museum was a great place that I will need to put on my list. The only thing better than Sondra’s photos and David’s videos of flora and fauna would be if I were there with you and taking photos of my own. As always I enjoyed your vlog. How could anyone not love the two of you. You are so genuine and down to earth. Love Sondra’s eye rolls. BTW - I don’t do scrapbook stores but have found a quilt shop or two! See you next week.

    Hey Chris. I took a NRVTA Solar course and I have some real concerns about your install. You have exposed connections underneath and there is no grommet in the hole where your cables are coming from/to your inverter. Please keep an eye out for wear and tear on those cables. And if the system fails, look at your shunt and BIM first; those should not be exposed to the elements. Best of luck and safe travels. 😊

    I'm not a big fan of deserts but that Sonora Desert is beautiful. Sondra your photos are a delight and I believe that bird making a home in the tall cactus is from the swallow family. Swallows have always been my favorite bird, having grown up with barn swallows swooping about in the early evenings catching flying insects rising up from the hay fields. They are such masterful flyers! As usual I look forward to next week's video!

    The date printed on a container of milk is not the expiration date; it's the last day of sale. When kept below 40 degrees, milk is good for two weeks after opening, or two weeks after the printed date, whichever comes first.
    Also, Walmart sells milk that is shelf stable (until opened). It's from Parmalat, and it's generally on the shelf in the baking section. It's generally around $3 for a quart box (like an oversized juice box), which is about the price of a quart of milk at a truck stop (if not cheaper), but it'll sit nicely in the cupboard for several months until you need it.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels

    Beautiful photos and videos, especially of the animals. Voyager was where we got locked down during Covid, so we know it well. Everything was closed, but we took a trip to nearby San Xavier Mission and were able to walk around the grounds. We had the place to ourselves, and all the cacti were in bloom. Very beautiful.

    One time we stood on the bridge at Minneapolis/St. Paul and watched a river otter trying to get upstream with her babies for about 45 minutes. The current was really strong and she had a couple babies on her back but one trying to swim alone kept getting swept back downstream. Thought sure the baby was lost but she finally made it above the bridge and collapsed on the bank to rest.

    If you shop Walmart as you do, look in the specialty foods section. They have a milk carton 1qt size that does not need refrigeration till opened. It comes in2% or whole milk type. It's name is (Parmalt). I keep a couple quarts on the shelf in the pantry when we are going out boon docking. All I have do is replace any used cartons in the refrigerator and it tastes and behaves just like fresh. As far as I can tell it is. It does cost a few pennies more but I prefer it over canned milk Yuck. Happy trails!
