We camped our frozen Canadian bones there last winter, just before covid stuck north America. Drove through snow storms all the way back to Canada! Crazy times but...love all of Texas and shall return! Stay safe.👍😉🐾🇨🇦
Loved seeing the 4x4 community cleaning up the beach ⛱ Those Pelicans were amazing flying in formation, great videography. You two are living my dream. Always a thumbs up.
Dave's grin at the end was as big as a little boy at Christmas who just received his favourite toy. After living in FL for so many years and definitely falling in love with the ocean and beaches, I could definitely camp on this beach. Thanks for sharing!
Great video! Your meals looked amazing! Dave and Roodle now have matching haircuts! Thanks for sharing all of the information about where you camp. Very helpful! Teresa & Mark
Good morning Dave, Carrie, & Roodle ! I'm glad you had a wonderful time ! Awesome video & as always very informative ! Meal look delicious ! Mother Nature's endless beauty & it's tragic side. It's a shame to all that trash ! High 5 to all those that treasure & devote to help Nature maintain it's beauty ! Nothing like old school traits kickin in. No cell phone, one shovel, endless sand & a determination to find water... What a blast ! Stay young at heart & keep smiling !
Sometimes no cell reception is a good thing! It was a bit risky grilling the chicken that close to the sand.... but it worked out😃 I could not believe how much trash they collected!!! And they do this every year!!!
Dave definitely has a child in him and cute little one at that. I loved the shot of the pelican on the pole with the waves crashing behind. The sound of the waves must have been magical. It must have been s great time for you three.
It was so nice hearing the ocean during your video. Very relaxing. Also, I feel that it’s essential to experience sleeping right on the beach at least once. I mean, on the sand, not on the road or something like that.
I love how Dave can still find his inner 10 year old...digging a hole in the sand, just because he wants to see how deep he can dig....Lol. I loved watching the Pelicans fly and the wind surfers...that would be fun!! Being by an ocean and listening to the waves never gets old....and that great nights sleep?? Priceless!!
Absolutely outstanding!! The zigzag of the bird formation was incredible. It was cute how Roodle was watching his human dig, lol! You guys have the best times! You are such a likable couple... I enjoy all your of your videos! Safe travels! 👍👍👍👍👍😁
Your videos have become so fantastic! You not only fixed the sound issues but really stepped up your total game. I appreciate it because I really enjoy watching you guys! Thanks
+S N thank you so much!!! We have worked hard on our audio. Still room for improvement.... please let us know if you have any suggestions now or in the future! Thanks for commenting! You’ve made our day!!!
We were shocked at how much trash they cleaned up. We were parked next to some campers who drove down the beach the next day and said there was still a ton of trash.
Great photography (as usual)! Love the salad and I make one similar but with small amount of mint leaves instead of cilantro (I only like it in salsa)! Hardy souls, you two! Winter camping on the beach is more than a little demanding!
That’s definitely a must do. To stay on the beach for “free” is awesome. Just have a national park pass. I could definitely stay for a few days. The idea of cooking like you did on the sand is interesting. As long as the wind won’t blow sand on my chicken I guess 😂 and again this makes me want a 4wd camper just to make the mile drive to no mans land. It’s nice they have water and a dump station there. Great video 👍🏼
Dear Dave and Carrie. I had been watching your videos on my husbands tablet which is on the verge of shutting down so my comments were under his name now you will receive them from me so don't wonder🤔 why Alok Rathore has stopped commenting. I loved the video. Dave definitely has a child in him and a cute little one at that. The shot of the pelican on the pole with the waves crashing at the back was my favorite
Loved watching the string of birds flying, and Dave imitating Roodle with haircut AND digging a hole😀 interesting to see the other aspects along the beach also. Envious of sleeping by the ocean sounds, hoping to get to a spot myself next month. Hope you're beginning to plan your trip to Australia😀👍
Roodle couldn’t figure out what Dave was doing😂😂😂 watching the Pelicans was amazing!!! I love birds and have a few ultimate favorites..... pelicans being one. I can’t wait for you to see next weeks video! I got some outstanding pelican shots!!! We had a chance to go to Australia about 15 years ago...but the plane tickets cost an arm and a leg!! We have always regretted not going.
When i went to the beach with my class A i put Old sheets down on my floor to catch the sand off my feet when i cam into the coach . that saves time for sweeping it out several times a day
I went back and watched your Idaho videos again before heading out on a road trip with my daughter last week. We chose to visit Kirkham Hot Springs, but the campgrounds nearby were covered in snow this time of year so we had to head to lower elevations to camp. We loved the hot springs. Thanks for making great videos that inspire adventure.
That is awesome! I am so glad you enjoyed it! That is the best compliment we could get. We are happy to share with the hopes of inspiring others. We really are lucky to live in such a diverse, beautiful, huge, free country where we can roam and explore!!!!
Thanks for all the great info! Love the sound of the waves. We're watching tonight's video from our camper. Just a few short months till freedom! So excited...
I’ve been to Jamaica, Grand Caiman, Cozumel and Cabo San Lucas. And I hardly saw any birds on there beaches like you do in the Texas gulf coast. Jamaica beaches are beautiful but painful to walk on because of the sharp big coral sand and Cabo your feet sink in and after a 1/4 mile of walking you’re tired. So theirs a-lot to appreciate about Texas beaches. Great video.
I can't wait to sleep on the beach. 😊 No cell reception = big sand holes lol grilling on the beach. That's awesome. Looks like you guys had a great time. ❤️
I was just telling Dave that if the border opens soon all the Canadians will be here and all the Americans will be in Canada! Man it’s been a long time!
Dave definitely has a child in him and a very cute one at that. Loved the video and the best shot was of the pelican on the pole with the waves crashing behind. It must have been magical to hear the sound of the waves day in and day out. Nice to see you three having fun.
Hey Dave, Carrie & Roodle!☺️ Awesome video, guys🙌🏽🙌🏽 Dave, I was so jealous watching you dig that whole😂 Longing for the days when I can spend digging random wholes in sand just cuz😩 😊👍🏽
Another great video guys. Dave and Roodle have the same hair cut, love it. Wow, the beach is long! Love all the beautiful scenery. We hope we can check this place out one day. Our RV has arrived at the dealer. Hopefully we can pick it up after mid April. After that we have a lot of exploring to do. Travel safe.
Yay! If you can stand the summer heat and humidity I think this would be a AWESOME spot in the summer.....especially if the turtles are hatching! Congrats on your RV... soon you will be exploring too!!
Hey guys! Oh wow, on the beach for free!!! That is awesome. All the sand...that is a never ending battle! The ocean sound...how soothing!!! Dave and his hole lol Boy that chicken looked great. Fun to watch you guys cook! 60 miles...that is a long Beach!! So sad to see all the dead fish. The sea creatures on that log...way cool!!! That blind...what a great idea. What kind of turtles are those? So nice of those people to clean up the beach...that was a lot of trash! So nice of you guys too! What a fun video! XO💚
My wife and I just started watching your videos. Thanks for the inspiration. I just retired from the Coast Guard, and we're planning on traveling just like you guys. We noticed the CG sticker on the front of your van; i assume you were in too? Will Williams
This is awesome! I’ve never actually gotten to come here. A bunch of my friends did spring break out there but it always such a big money week for me that I never took off. Added to the list of must sees.
We love our America the Beautiful Pass! That place is so gorgeous! We absolutely love a good mixed greens salad and yours looks yummy! Love the bird blind! Great video, guys! 😀👍
@@oneadVANtureatatime Terry is also a veteran but so far we have just paid the $80 - it is pretty reasonable. If we didn't pay that, we would probably make donations anyway, so what the heck. ;-) And shortly we will get a senior {yikes} lifetime one for just $80. Keep up the geat videos - we love every one of them!!! ;-)
Hi Carrie & Dave, I'm sure you know about artificial grass, but did you know you can buy it already cut to the size of a door mat? That plastic grass look alike is the best door mat you will ever buy, it keeps out the sand if you wipe your feet properly on the mat, it also helps with leaves and mud, and I wouldn't have anything else in front of my camper door again . Greetings from Sydney Australia
We had artificial grass the first year. What I didn’t like was storing it. Yes it caught a lot of dirt but it also held a lot of dirt. Now that I don’t have it.... I miss it! And I was just thinking yesterday about replacing it and where I could store it!
I've got a 2019 Ram Promaster box truck. Has a 14ft box, with overhead door. Only problem ivd had is a constant high idle in extreme cold. Has the 3.6 Penstar Engine
I really enjoyed being on the Beach with y'all, but Dave scared the stuffings out of me when he dug that hole and got in it! Carrie, you've got to stop letting him have all that freedom to do that crazy stuff! LOL Y'all stay safe and Blessings
I know! All I could think of is the is how people get stuck!! I (carrie) cannot have my legs that confined.....claustrophobe starts to kick in! I wish we would have built a sand castle! NEXT TIME!!!!
Except for the cars and rvs on the beach, that rainy windy beach looks like ours on the north Oregon coast. And, it’s not often that you see a dog standing by watching a man dig a hole in the sand! You didn’t mention washing the salty sand off your rig when you got off the beach. We always do that so our vehicles don’t look like they come from states where they salt the roads.
When I was a young man I spent a summer hauling pipe in port lavaca Texas Now that I’m an old man I want to go back and see if it’s like I remember.....
Im glad.you enjoyed my.back yard i never understood why anyone would want to camp on the beach just seems like more torchor then fun. And.ypur dog was.so.proud of.you hr toygh you how to dig a hole.good
Very nice backyard! The sound of the waves while you rest, the cool fresh salty air, and the sound of the shore birds were a delight! I will admit after about a week of sweeping sand out of the van we are ready to move to higher ground. 👍😀
where there people pulling camping trailers on the beach? We have a 13ft scamp trailer so it doesn't weight much but wasn't sure it would just get stuck in the sand. Our tow vehicle is 4 AWD.
I laughed out loud! Dave, you’re the best. So fun 😊 Maybe some sunrises in the next video? Are you guys able to supply yourselves on TH-cam? Are you able to save money for the future? I saw the jumping fish and loved the birds in flight! TY
It has taken us two full years to finally be making some money from TH-cam. We are hoping by the end of 2021. that TH-cam and Patreon will be covering our monthly expenses. We just signed up for our 2nd year at the beet Harvest as we have some expenses coming up... new tires, new shocks... transmission flush.... you know fun stuff😂 honestly I have to say that without our Patreon account we would not have been able to make it.
Great to know...thank you! We used to air down our jeep tires all the time but we were unsure how it would work with 10 ply tires and so much weight. We will do this next time!
Enjoy it while you can. The new head ranger who singlehandedly canceled the turtle rescue program is now working to close the entire beach to vehicle traffic.
Hi Carrie & Dave. Love your videos. They are so inspirational. I wanted to tell you that you can use Pinterest to advertise your videos to get more subscribers.
🤣🤣 Carrie what kind of hair cut is that, I hope you didn't charge Dave. I love the sound of the beach, and the scenery of the flying birds. Can't wait to see your next adventure, take care.
kudos to all who volunteer, making the world better for all one piece of trash at a time, thank you! and who would have said that bird watching had competition: turtle watching!!! LLLOOOLLL Question for you guys, how do you get to use libraries on the road? Do you pay and become a member of each different one? Thank you again!
Most libraries are open to the public. Some want you to go inside and they give you a temporary pass. With covid and most libraries being curbside only they have been posting the password on the door.
@@doratheexplorerbegins That’s a good thing & more people should do it where they live. I use to do local cleanup drives like the California Coastal Cleanup Day at Point Reyes National Seashore until they canceled them due to Covid. I still do it on my own with family along the riverbed. If more of us pickup after selfish pigs & remind people & shame them if necessary. We could elevate this pollution & keep cities & states from closing more sites you’re right.
Just listening to the waves on your video nearly put me to sleep. I can imagine that being a very peaceful night's sleep!
It really is!
You're a good team! Thank you for your perspective on Padre beach camping!
We camped our frozen Canadian bones there last winter, just before covid stuck north America. Drove through snow storms all the way back to Canada! Crazy times but...love all of Texas and shall return! Stay safe.👍😉🐾🇨🇦
Any news on when the border might reopen?
@@oneadVANtureatatime last i read, April 21.
Loved seeing the 4x4 community cleaning up the beach ⛱
Those Pelicans were amazing flying in formation, great videography.
You two are living my dream.
Always a thumbs up.
Soon! Very soon you will be out here with us!!!
@@oneadVANtureatatime I work on it everyday, lm really looking forward to meeting the 3 of you
Wow, the volunteer crew was great to see. And turtles are my favorite.
I wish I could be there when the turtles are hatching! That was an amazing amount of trash they picked up!!
@@oneadVANtureatatime I'm inspired to search more on this. I would love to help.
Pelicans coming out of the fog was cool. Thanks for the ride!
LOVED THE PELICANS!!!
Another enjoyable watch....lemon pepper chicken and salad looked delicious! Safe journeys to you three!
It was risky grilling it that low to the sand!!! But it turned out great!
Dave's grin at the end was as big as a little boy at Christmas who just received his favourite toy. After living in FL for so many years and definitely falling in love with the ocean and beaches, I could definitely camp on this beach. Thanks for sharing!

Sometimes it cute! And sometimes NOT.... lol. He gets this little mischievous smirk too!! That is pretty cute!
Awesome guys. Love watching your videos 😀
Thank you! Miss you guys!! Hoping to meet up with you when we get to Ohio!! We don’t have dates yet... and hopefully the border will open by then😃
Absolutely outstanding!! The zigzag of the bird formation was incredible. It was cute how Roodle was watching his human dig, lol! You guys have the best times! You are such a likable couple... I enjoy all your of your videos! Safe travels! 👍👍👍👍👍😁
Thank you so much! I wish I would have thought to bring some sand castles making supplies!!
I love your videos and enjoy seeing all the neat places you visit. It's inspiration to get out there for myself.
Yay! We love sharing these amazing places!!

The pelican Airforce was impressive!
Love that!!! Pelican airforce!!
Looks like a great place to explore and camp! I’m putting this on my ever growing list. Thanks for sharing!
Right Salty! Need more years to explore. Happy Day!
We really enjoyed our time along the Texas Coastline!!
Great shots of the pelicans flying in formation and that delicious salad with grilled chicken looked so tasty.
And that clean up crew, I'm really impressed. Those people are awesome! You guys are awesome too, nice job cleaning up.
We were shocked at how much trash they cleaned up. We were parked next to some campers who drove down the beach the next day and said there was still a ton of trash.
Doodle was like,hey that’s my hole you’re digging ! Lol lol
He was a bit confused😂😂
Low tide is a great time to harvest. Padre Beach seems epic and for sure on the most visit list.
The turtle are adorable.
Lou & Angie
I would LOVE to be there when the baby turtles are hatching!!!
Great photography (as usual)! Love the salad and I make one similar but with small amount of mint leaves instead of cilantro (I only like it in salsa)! Hardy souls, you two! Winter camping on the beach is more than a little demanding!
I will have to try it with some mint! I bet this is a great summer salad! Yeah, the beach was a tad foggy and the water definitely to cold to enjoy!
Hi !! The scenery was beautiful and the birds were awesome ! So sad about the fish😏 as always...great information 💚💚💚
Yeah I was surprised at the amount f dead fish 😢the pelicans were the highlight for sure! I can’t wait for you to see Saturday’s video!

Nothing better than picking up trash when you are bored. Win win situation. 😅
When i went to the beach with my class A i put Old sheets down on my floor to catch the sand off my feet when i cam into the coach . that saves time for sweeping it out several times a day
We put towels and blankets down.... it helped some🤷♀️
I went there in 2019 on a roadtrip, one of my favorite places!
I can imagine being on this beach during the hot Texas summer.... it must just be magical! Or when the turtles are hatching 🐢
What an awesome video! That's not the look most do, and it was very valuable. That massive cleanup project is remarkable! Bravo all!!
I went back and watched your Idaho videos again before heading out on a road trip with my daughter last week. We chose to visit Kirkham Hot Springs, but the campgrounds nearby were covered in snow this time of year so we had to head to lower elevations to camp. We loved the hot springs.

That was his goal!!
Nice looking bridges, unlike here where they all look like they were bombed in WW2 and then patched
Rut-wroh... I guess we will get to see this first hand
Dave is so humble

70f water temp is when we'll start wade fishing wet (without waders). 🤠
Yeah that sounds pretty nice! The water was definitely COLD!!
Nice thanks
Don't you just love Sandy chicken... Lol..😂😂😂
Yes…. Extra gritty please 😂😂😃
If you air down your tires to about 20-25lbs, you will do much better on the beach. I can go about 5-10 miles down Padre with a Promaster.
Great to know...thank you! We used to air down our jeep tires all the time but we were unsure how it would work with 10 ply tires and so much weight. We will do this next time!
Dave you digging that hole
😅🤣😂
So beautiful there! I always love your video's but like I said, get rid of Mohawk 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂
It’s a phase.... wait till you see what he does next! 😂😂
Enjoy it while you can. The new head ranger who singlehandedly canceled the turtle rescue program is now working to close the entire beach to vehicle traffic.
well that sucks. Maybe a compromise can be reached. Only closing the beach when the baby turtles are hatching.

🤣🤣 Carrie what kind of hair cut is that, I hope you didn't charge Dave. I love the sound of the beach, and the scenery of the flying birds. Can't wait to see your next adventure, take care.
It’s called mohawkan
Lol! That’s what he wanted! Thankfully I talked him into toning it down a bit!!
Makes you wonder where all the trash is coming from?
It washes up from all over the world due to the currents.
kudos to all who volunteer, making the world better for all one piece of trash at a time, thank you! and who would have said that bird watching had competition: turtle watching!!! LLLOOOLLL Question for you guys, how do you get to use libraries on the road? Do you pay and become a member of each different one? Thank you again!
Sandra Westley I doubt it they just sit out side the building and use the WiFi , I have watched loads of van people use that option.
@@robwestley7370 Thank you Rob, but isn't the WiFi password protected? :)
Yes we have done this plenty of times!
Most libraries are open to the public. Some want you to go inside and they give you a temporary pass. With covid and most libraries being curbside only they have been posting the password on the door.
@@oneadVANtureatatime I knew you would know the answer!!! You are so resourceful, thank you, as always!
You so need to get rid of that Mohawk ugh

BEFORE I SAY ANYTHING---- WHERE DID ALL OF THAT TRASH COME FROM????
Some lazy, selfish, thoughtless, baby-like campers, rv'rs, van lifers who feel entitled & think their mom's will come out & clean after their mess.
We did a trash challenge the last time we Beach-docked. Maybe you can do this as well.
@@doratheexplorerbegins That’s a good thing & more people should do it where they live. I use to do local cleanup drives like the California Coastal Cleanup Day at Point Reyes National Seashore until they canceled them due to Covid. I still do it on my own with family along the riverbed. If more of us pickup after selfish pigs & remind people & shame them if necessary. We could elevate this pollution & keep cities & states from closing more sites you’re right.
@@FEARNoMore totally agree. Hoping doing the challenge it will encourage others. It’s so sad to see all the trash left behind.
