BBNP was our first "big" stop when we started full timing in 2018. We were there for a week and still didn't see everything! It's a huge place and beautiful!!! The video is great! ~Lynette
Great video Brian and Michelle! I was at BBNP the first year I was full time. It was AMAZING! I drove the road from the NP to the State Park and it was so strikingly beautiful, I literally cried! I kayaked on the Rio Grande and hiked the canyon that week too. It is still a favorite memory of my time as a full timer camper!
Thank you, Michelle and Brian, Beautiful Park that will be on our trip list thank you for taking the time and showing us the park. We liked the chairs LOL. You made our Morning.
We did that 4 years ago..we're heading back this year..and staying in the park with our camper..looking forward to experiencing Big Bend in the nighttime..
Just a day? We spent a week there. Great video, especially the music! This is the park that convinced us to leave the Prius behind in Alaska and get a Jeep. I couldn’t believe how narrow the Rio Grand was! We did the boat trip across to Mexico. It was a wonderful cultural experience. We paid for a guide and rode the donkeys. He took us all around the town and right to his house where his wife was selling homemade goods. Of course I purchased. We’ll go back once we get our class C.
Saturday!!!!! I’m working on a Saturday!!! And you show !!! Yayyy ! You are an accent to my Saturday when I’m doing my Marketing list and you keep me going, Jeanne Stark Clearwater Florida
Thank you for another beautiful visit to a wonderful national park. We still enjoy your work and we ask you to keep it up if you can. Have a wonderful new year!
We love Big Bend. We were there just over 2 weeks ago and we were there in February too. Stayed in Rio Grande Village too. This time we did go to Mexico, super easy, had breakfast and headed back to the US. We walked. There is so much to do there. You just scratched the surface, but you got a taste and hopefully you will get back. First visit e did the drive down to the Hot Springs in an F250 and I was white knuckling it on that last bit. This time we got on the back roads and it was so beautiful
Another beautiful video. Thank you for a years worth of outstanding videos, places I will never get an opportunity to see. I wish you safe travels, and good health, last not least, much happiness in the New Year..Happy New Year 2025🎉🎉🎉.
We loved BBNP! We did go across the river and rode into the small town. Not a lot there, had lunch (not bad) and returned. It was a fun diversion. That trip convinced us to switch to a Jeep from the Prius which had a lot of scrapes on the underside. Even more than Death Valley. We enjoyed the video as it’s been several years since we were there.
Happy New Year Guys! You are on your way west…could you be working your way to Palm Springs and Sherman’s deli!?! Safe travels Michelle and Brian (or should I say, the Duke! Too funny)!
We subscribe to several RV lifestyle channels, yours with out a doubt is the best, thank you! The production values are the best of any! Brian your commentary you write is incredible. My wife and i will grab a glass of wine and enjoy your latest video. We are budding RV'ers hoping to get our first towable next year. Will you two be in Tampa this year?
That’s very nice of you, thank you. Yes, we are having a meet and greet on Friday the 17th at the RV show in Tampa. The time will be from 1 to 3 PM at the Grech RV display. We hope to see you there! 🧡
We always enjoy your videos! I know we will never get to see the places that you see in person but we greatly enjoy seeing them in video every week! You will have to go sometime and see the Ark Encounter in Northern Kentucky and the creation Museum located a short distance from there. God bless you and protect you in your travels!❤🙏
Yes, just 1 day? Absolutely better than non, but this park and area deserves at least 5-7 days. It is so diverse. Do appreciate your bringing attention to this often missed National Park. Going across to the little Mexican Village is part of the fun. The photography is as nice as always as is the music. You had a kiss from this park, may it lure you back for big hugs. Happy Trails..
Yes, we plan to go back as we mentioned in the video. If you watch our channel often, you know we often have places we have to be. We have zero regrets visiting this park in one day and would do it again and would recommend anyone that only has a day or two, to not let that discourage you from visiting. Beautiful place! 🧡😊🤓
We took delivery of our 2025 Grech Strada Ion this past Thursday. Have only driven it from the dealer to our home, which was about an hour and a half drive. We are delighted to finally receive it after ordering in October. The new 2025 comes prewired for Starlink, but it’s for the $2500 High Performance version. By the way, Starlink Roam is now $165 / month, but they now include in motion use for that price, so you could use it while driving.
Very nice!! Although, a lot of the scenery looks like where I live but I think it would be an interesting place to visit. Thank you for showing me all the places that my husband and I need to visit.
Looked like a long day of sightseeing, but well worth it! You always find a lot of beautiful sites. Brian you should have sit on the horse seat. Safe travels🥸😎🤓 Happy New Year!
Love your adventures and suggestions!! Have to try that just ahead app. Keep up the great work!! Anyway in your older videos that you can do a search by bringing up the state to check out your adventures ??
You should be able to go to our channel, click videos, then in the search area of the videos, type either the state or subject of the area you are looking for. I know some of our older videos were not optimized for search results though and when I have the extra time someday, I need to go back through them all.
We also spent the night at the Marathon Motel & RV park. Local citizen scientists brought their telescopes to the CG so we could stargaze. It was special. Regarding the national park, you just didn’t give yourself enough time to explore the park. I guess one day is better than nothing, but it is really is in an isolated area of the country to drive there for one day. IMHO you needed at least a few days there - you really missed seeing the beauty of Boquillas Canyon. We ran into wild horses on the trails there.
Right, we realize that as we pointed out. We visit many areas across the country that we only have a day or two sometimes, and then we go back (like The Badlands, Custer, Spearfish etc.) Nobody should be discouraged and refrain from visiting in just one day if that’s all the time you have. Like us, you’ll be glad you did and you’ll still have plenty of memories. There are a lot of trails in that park too, so many that even someone visiting a week, would never have enough time to hike them all. So enjoy what you can, while you can and never let anyone discourage you from doing so. 🧡
@ - Absolutely agree. Hope my comment didn’t sound harsh. It is just such an amazing place but you really have to want to go there because it is so far off the beaten path. Keep posting. We enjoy your videos. Thank you!
Not at all! 🧡 We simply want to encourage others to visit, even if they only have a day or two. It’s absolutely worthwhile, we were able to cover so much in just one day!
We actually did stop there to eat but they were having a private event and the other tables were reserved only and were already full. Looked like a great place to eat when we were reading reviews to find a place to eat. Thank you though.
I had it included and Michelle and I both thought it didn’t fit accordingly with the video. So we made the choice to end it the way, we, felt was appropriate.
Hi again. That app sounds great to me , do you have to pay or sign up for it? Just wondering, cause I’m definitely interested in that one. Big Bend seemed to be a little spooky at times with the ominous fog. Just as I type this the ☀️ comes 😂. Those views of the river were breath taking. Another great video with amazing sites and views. Thank You
There was no sign posted, but there were 5th wheels and motorhomes in the campground that we were in (shown in the beginning of the video), so with that road being the only way in, one would believe that it must be plenty tall enough. There are a few people on the internet saying what the height is, but we don’t feel comfortable telling someone without knowing for sure. If you’re planning a trip there and concerned, it’s always best to call the National Park Visitors Center to ask.

Great video. The big bend area has been on my bucket list and now I’m even more interested. A beautiful area.
Very purdy!! Safe travels!! 😁
Hope you had an awesome Christmas and wishing you a very Happy New Years.
Looking forward to your 2025 adventures.
From your Canadian fans.
Happy New Year! 🎊
You did a fantastic job of capturing the beauty of Big Bend NP. Thank you!
🧡 Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
In our opinion, the most underrated National Park. We’ve visited there more than a dozen times, always something new to experience
Stunning views! Beautiful music too. Well done Brian. You're getting better and better. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
Thank you for another beautiful visit to a wonderful national park. We still enjoy your work and we ask you to keep it up if you can. Have a wonderful new year!
🧡
The Big Bend area is so beautiful. I loved the mountains and the views. Texas is a remarkable state.
Thanks for the tip about the "Just Ahead" app. We'll plan to load that for our next road trip.
Excellent Video! I'm Rit-to-go!
Great video! The John Wayne was EPIC! One more destination to put on our list! Happy New Year!
Happy new year!
@ we’re sad we won’t be at the Tampa RV show to see y’all again. We just can’t purchase an RV every year! Safe travels!
Hard to look without buying? 😂
We’re sad that we won’t see you guys this year! 😔
Beautiful photos! Great video. I love Michelle's "Don't go there" look. 😳😁 About 31:47.

At first I thought , na I'll pass on this park., but then whoa! Those views were amazing!! Thank you for the glimpse of things to come.
We're so happy you enjoyed it! 🧡

Such a stunning park. Spent a full week camping there and still not enough time to see everything. The town of Marfa was a lot of fun too.
This is a very good video and verrrry interesting I must say !
Glad you enjoyed it! 🧡

Aewsome video.
Great vid. What is on that coyote's back?????
I think it was just it’s hair sticking up
If you head to Alpine, be sure to eat at Reata!
We actually did stop there to eat but they were having a private event and the other tables were reserved only and were already full. Looked like a great place to eat when we were reading reviews to find a place to eat. Thank you though.
It relies on its name instead of the food. Spicewood is the restaurant to hit.
Jeez, you could of rounded it out nicely with “call it a day !”
I had it included and Michelle and I both thought it didn’t fit accordingly with the video. So we made the choice to end it the way, we, felt was appropriate.
Oh, sorry I mention it. I meant no ill feeling. I’ll just watch.
None taken at all. Just explaining why we didn’t.

Is the tunnel tall enough for rv's?
Thanks

Tried getting the just ahead app going through the website and it states no longer available. 🥺
What time of year were you there ?
Dec 7
@LivinRVision thanks
❤ Thanks for sparring me the trip.
Lots of nothing in West Texas.
You may have missed some of the video, the park is so diverse and so beautiful. Would hate to see you miss such a treasure.
