Oh those cats were so cute! I take care of all the ferals in my neighborhood. One of them really started to like me a lot and yep, I took her in. She hit it off with my cat and now we're one big, happy family. :-)
i took in one too and she and i have been together for 5 years!!!! tho' she is only domesticated during the winter, warm months she is feral again, her name is Summer.
Brian, just want to say that Marvy and I really enjoy your videos. No drama or "one crisis after another." You mainly focus on where you are and where you are going. A great balance of scenery, routine, and information in a well produced manner. No gimmicks, click-bait, or painting a false picture of "the life." My only suggestion is that you change your salsa to a habañero based sauce. ;-) We have been living in Mexico for about five years but in Sept will be "on the road" in the States again. Hopefully our paths will cross.
I really would love to be part of a tight knit caravan crew. This way I could travel around cross country without my obsessive anxiety. I wish the best for everyone and that the caravans are a screaming success for all 😃
Brian, I just love your videos. Since my wife and I bought our new camper van 3 plus weeks ago, we've dived into a TH-cam shuffle of everything RV related and you, by far, are the one I've subscribed to that I look forward to getting an update on the most. I'm assuming the first two campgrounds you were at were freebies? Just really cool for us to log these weekly as prospects for us, when we hit the road. God bless and have a great day.
RE: the steep grade and hot brakes, are you shifting into lower gears during those steep down grades? Shifting out of overdrive, or even into 2nd or 1st, allows the engine to brake and reduces the wear on your brakes and rotors.
@@Jj-gi2uv Fair point. Since Brian's rig is a bit older, he should probably ask Bill (from Economic Refugees) or somebody else with a lot of mechanical knowledge. I also live in AZ and know all about going down those steep grades. I used to commute from Phoenix to Flagstaff when I was in Grad school. I used my brakes some, but would also downshift on some of the really steep parts to have a little more control and keep my brakes from getting too hot. One thing to consider... when brakes get hot like that, they can fail or lose their effectiveness, so it's dangerous to run them hot like that. Also, a Corolla is a LOT lighter than what Brian's driving, so while you might get away with using your brakes only, it might be a lot more iffy for somebody driving a van packed with stuff. I'd personally rather drain and fill my transmission fluid a little more regularly (not flush!) than have my brakes not work right on some of those steep hills. Also, brakes getting hot like that will warp the rotors and replacing rotors isn't any cheaper than just a basic drain and fill of transmission fluid. Also, I'm not a mechanic either, just my two cents. Hope Brian contacts people like Bill and gets their opinion. That guy would know a lot about this kind of stuff considering he's driving that giant RV around and worked on motorcycles for a living.
This week we got a new kitty. She just wandered in and was starving. She is a sweetie. We are going to have her scanned for a chip today. We will find her a good home if we cant find her owners. Right now she is being well fed and spoiled. Love your videos! Wishing you safe travels!
When I worked on the waterfront I had a herd of feral cats. If I got to the kittens right when the adults gave them the boot, they became tame enough to jump in my lap. If someone else came up they we're gone. Never 100% tame. Very good of you to be helping others.
Dear Brian, I enjoy your adventures & your thoughtful demeanor. Thanx for being kind to the cats. I loved a sweet cat that lived under my house for 9 yrs. She disappeared & soon we saw mousies in the house [in lg. city]. I welcome some feral & abandoned cats. Of course I feed them well--when they're not hungry they are not going to catch birds. They don't even kill the rats, they just scare them off.
Beautiful views! Thanks so much. Here in Ontario Canada we had virtually no fall. It went from heat to winter. I missed the gorgeous brilliance of autumn. You captured some wonderful stuff. Thanks for your kindness toward the kitties 🐱. Love Bobs caravan idea. Very relaxed
Luckily, cats still retain strong hunting and survival instints, and there are more mice and lizards around there than you can shake a stick at. They are in a pride, which is another instinct, and they are free. I reckon the cats love it. Cats always make it clear, they don't need people. LOL,
Hopefully someone will borrow a Hart trap from the local Humane Society to TNR them. Un-neutered cats fight more and end up with bad infections that can eventually kill them, not to mention the number of kittens they produce, it's not all a Disney cartoon.
Likely no rabbits either. My cat was born as a feral kitten underneath my house. She's got 4 little rabbits in the last 2 and a half weeks. Including one last night. It became such common occurence that I put down lino on my bedroom floor to make it easier to wipe up the blood stains.
Been missing you thank you for sharing your journey..always enjoy your videos and scenery you share , flute music, your cooking...just really the calm attitude you have towards life in general! God bless you and keep you safe!
I enjoyed watching the cats which reminded me of a similar place in Kerrville Tx where several people were taking care of the large cat population down near the river. Glad you are helping with Bob Wells' cool Caravans. Glad I found your videos. 😊
Jones Water camp ground looks like my kind of place. I like the brush and trees. The old rock and concrete picnic table was very cool. The cats were an added bonus. Looks like one of the cats had no tail. Stay safe, peace.
I know that one cat, she is Kitty McSkittlekittens, she holds a PhC from Calico kitty college in Kalamazoo County Kansas, she used to have a high wire act, she rode a unicycle on a high wire. Maybe those cats were orphaned there. Great video Brian, you are a master camper.
In the words of Mark Twain "If a man shows an affinity twords cats he is my friend with no further introduction." Cool of you to spare some food I do the same thing.
Brian, Always enjoy your videos, glad to see you joined up with one of the caravans. We'll be full time in Jan. Getting too cold here in NM. Was 9 last nite. Take care an enjoy..... C-Ya..
I knew you'd spark some controversy re: the cats. You did what your heart told you to do, so good on ya. Thanks for the update--always a pleasure to follow along.
That was an awesome view Brian! excellent camera work!I just came back from Pine AZ visiting family, got to see elk and mule deer they walk about the town like they own it. Very cool.Cheers
Well we have a couple things in common...love of AVM & NM! I just bought 2 super cheap acres near El Morro National Monument...totally undeveloped land. I had been looking for about 2 years & finally found the right spot for me! Good luck to you 😄
@@jodipuentes6306 that is awesome. What is your dream? So many people dream but never take action and die with their dream still inside of them. I too am working towards buying a van with the goal of equipping in for camping. My bucket list is to visit as many of the 100 plus Texas state parks and state natural areas as possible. Maybe even visit some state parks in Oklahoma, who knows possibly an RTR, lol.
Fun! Time warp forward. Dang, you put on some serious road miles. Just watched this from my van in Borrego Springs. Good times here in bighorn country. I may see you at the December caravan here. It’s beautiful and vast with plenty of room to stretch out and ride your bike. Peace
I hope this inaugural Caravan event is a success so it will be held again. I'm not ready yet (still building van, and wrapping up life details), so I hope can catch part two, or 2019. Keeping on truckin', Brian.
Great vid Brian, I like how you pop in and out while driving. Looking forward to meeting up, possibly at Anza. Keep up the good work, definitely enjoy watching your adventures.
Very nice video! I am watching this in 2022. It's interesting, in hindsight, to hear you talking about wondering who will turn up to join Bob Well's Caravans. Indeed, it would seem that you made a special friend during that time. 😀
Brian, I watched your video where you expressed you wanted to be of more help to people. I commented that for me as a newbie I was intimidated by being out there alone. You mentioned to me to check with Bob because he was putting together these caravans. I seen your live chat with Bob and see that you are helping with one of his groups. That is so dang cool of you. Thank you. I would have been there with all of you but I am dealing with some medical stuff right now. Kudos Man
Glad you are doing well out there. We have decided we want to build out an ambulance. I don't know when that will manifest for us, in the meantime the little Scamp trailer needs some work so there is plenty to do for now.
Oh how I wish I was there with the caravan! Still caring for my Dad with dementia here in West Texas. My van is waiting patiently for me to travel. It and my car are sporting my awesome AVM window stickers. Y'all have safe travels and Happy Holidays! I'll be living vicariously through your TH-cam channel until my caregiving time comes to an end ✌ ❤
🌸Hi Brian, this is ALLECIA from Caravan One. It was wonderful meeting you on Bob’s Live and looking forward to your adventures. You’re doing an amazing job. Thank you for sharing this beautiful vlog, I remember how I felt entering Arizona for the first time too L🤣L. Incredible 😄🌸
Hey Brian ( short version). 1st camping trip in De fed ferral cats. Next year fed a new "drop". After feeding she crawled up to me and put her paw on my face sooo. "Pokey" became mine for 9 wonderful years. A very special cat. Glad you met up with a caravan. Loved beautiful sky's and especially camp fire. Keep sharing. Thanks
Really enjoyed your guitar playing on this video and you :trip thru Kingman (previous video)…..Enjoy your travels. Mine starts mid-April and really looking forward to it.....TruckamperJim in Indiana
I have to say you have the greatest intro music and background music playing throughout your videos. Very peaceful and inspiring. I think it was a big reason I decided to subscribe. Nice...thoughtful choice
Brian glad to see you made it to the RTR Van build.Beautifull Cats,to bad they are not in someone!s home.As all ways Great Video.Safe travels,and Happy ThanksGiving.:}
The van build party 2018 is not part of the RTR events or the RTR caravans. They have completely different leadership, but some people do choose attend both of those events.
Love your videos Brian...So glad that you are going to be part of the Caravans. I’m headed to Death Valley after Thanksgiving, but thinking about joining your caravan for just a bit after that! Safe Travels 🌵✌🏼 Carol
Great vid. Glad you did the caravan I think meet ups like that are great for folks that might not like the large groups of the RTR. I have not been on the road yet, but when I do I would like to be solo, but meet up with some like minded folks from time to time. I appreciate your vids as I prepare for my travels one day soon.
Around 8:45 it's good to see that Zinc-plated slotted angle on the solar holding up. I recently installed tilting panels using 14 gauge because of the affordable price and was worried about it rusting. Nice to see the angle on your panels is still shiny.
Thanks for taking us along on your beautiful drive across NM/AZ. Love it when I wake up to a Monday morning video from you. Hope to join the caravan in early Jan. Parked in TX with family for the holidays...then back to the road!
Hi Brian, So good to see you back safe in AZ and helping with the Caravan. I KNOW your hosting the group enjoyed your company. Wished I had been there.Dang.Lady Bug needs maintenance that I couldn't do nor travel for fear of damage to class c.Ya know how it is..... Hope you were able to get somethings done on your rig. and hope maybe some help. Safe travels. Always enjoy your videos. Im watching just dont always comment. kittys were really pretty. My Ms Kitty is coming around with being in lady bug. Shes a stray that just walked up skin and bones and stayed....soon to be 6 years.she a country cat,good mouser and goffer gal.She plays with them til dead then abandons them. Hey, as long as there gone who cares! She doesnt even draw blood. She must strangle them. IDK. LATER GATOR. jP from OKLAHOMA.
Yep. Tried to find you in Bouse at original location. Came back to Parker. Solved mystery of disappearing Caravan when I checked CRVL site. Plan to catch up with you in Parker. Great video as usual. Thanks, Brian! Charlene
I’m busy getting my truck camper ready for Quartzsite in late December. I just got a zero gravity lawn chair, a hose to connect my Mr Heater to a 20# tank. It’s almost time to live the adventure.
@@TSunshineful not sure where everyone is going to but i will be meeting up with the 2nd group caravan they will be headed to parker on the 28th im already in parker at the van build
I enjoyed the overview of Jones Water. It looks like a nice little place to stay on the way to Tonto National Forest and it's free. Hopefully now that you're getting a break you'll have some more time to explore the National Forests. I don't plan to be on a tight schedule when I hit the road.
Love your videos.. When you stopped at the side of the road, did you climb up to get that beautiful view? Oouuuu... And the sunset..... Wow... Perfect..... Thanks for sharing.. I'm assuming that someone left/lost their 🐈 cat .... and now they're growing in numbers.. Nice of you to feed them.. Be brave, humble and blessed..👋🏽
Thank you for being a host Brian! I'm sure the folks in your caravan are having a wonderful time under your guidance!
Oh those cats were so cute! I take care of all the ferals in my neighborhood. One of them really started to like me a lot and yep, I took her in. She hit it off with my cat and now we're one big, happy family. :-)

I would like to do the same but I’m also afraid of traveling alone. Because of braking down and those issues.

I would choose to caravan with your group, just to listen to you play around the campfire! What beautiful tunes.

It's good you can rest from so much driving. The vid was great. The smoking brakes were scary.
That whistle gets me every time 😂
I look forward to your videos. They are very mellow. Those cats look well fed. thanks my friend.
Thank You for taking care of the kitties. They look healthy, so I think there is someone there who is taking care of them. In my Prayers.
Jones Water camp ground looks like my kind of place. I like the brush and trees. The old rock and concrete picnic table was very cool. The cats were an added bonus. Looks like one of the cats had no tail. Stay safe, peace.
I do not think it can accommodate anything large so be sure and check it out.
Thank you for feeding the fur babies
Nice to see someone is staying off the interstate great video thanks again!
I hope you are enjoying it as much as imagine I would. Really great of you to be one of the leaders Brian.
You take such great pictures

Been through there several times, but never took motorhome through there. Sister in-law lives in Globe.
You will be a great support for the rest of the group. Hope u all help each other. Thank you for doing this.

I have stayed there before in Fort Sumner, mosquitos were pretty intense. Fishing was great though.
Craggy Wash in Lake Havasu City, AZ is a free campground. Weather is great in the winter!
great video. hopeto see u at the RTR
Hey, Brian, long time no see. I’m in AZ for the winter and plan to be at the RTR for a couple of days. I hope we get a chance to catch up a bit.

Could tell if any of the cats had the tip of an ear cut off. That’s how a wild cat is marked here in Mississippi
Same in Georgia, tipped ear for a fixed feral cat
