I think that even if the pandemic didn't happen, your videos would still become popular. They're so dang good in how they awaken something nostalgic in many of us that we miss now with the onset of how technology has been able to isolate people indoors more. No offense to the videos with your wife and kids but these ones with your Dad really go straight to the heart and are the most fun!
I love the road trips with Pops, but I've also really enjoyed some of your adventures with your wife, too!🍒 Thanks for sharing so many wonderful places with us who wish to travel more, too!🎶 My favorite thing about your vlogs is how positively you narrate, Josh~💯
You two are so blessed to enjoy such a wonderfully close father/son relationship. I dont think they are so common and so it's very wonderful to see! God bless you and keep you safe in your travels!
We do realize how blessed we are and don’t take it for granted. So sad some of the difficulties people will share in comments that just break your heart. But we always appreciate the reminder so thx!
Loved this q and a. Your twins’ answers at the beginning were priceless and spot on- cherry blossoms and glaciers are my favourites too! Looking forward to seeing the South Dakota road trip.
I love the twins are developing memories of the trips they have been on. . . so far! Cherry Blossoms and glaciers, spot on! Too, cute. I love this Q&A embedded in your trips!
I (female, solo traveler) just stumbled across your vlogs a couple months ago and absolutely love them. I have binged watched a lot of them, including with your wife and twins and all of them inspired me to do the same, once I retire (late 2025). I just can't believe Pops hasn't been to Lake Tahoe. I lived up at the lake for 13 years and would move back in a heart beat. But for the time being I'm stuck in Florida. 😞You have to do a road trip there. It is breathtaking beautiful. Thank you for sharing and I'm looking forward to many more videos.
We love your videos! When my wife and I started planning a road trip from Ontario Canada to San Diego in 2022, your videos inspired us to see as much as we could... especially the Route 66 videos! Now that she has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's in her 50's, travel is one of her favourite things, so we've been creating our own travel videos... We don't get a lot of views, but our friends love seeing our adventures, and you were a tremendous inspiration to us! Thanks so much!
We enjoy the chemistry that you had Pops have, you both make a great team. But we also love to watch when your family is going with you. The kids are so cute. We also love the destinations that you showcase. Great Job. Safe travels.
I love the relationship between you and your pops. You are so blessed. The banter is so entertaining and refreshing. Will watch your videos over network reality TV anytime
This was a fun video! I appreciated hearing about your takes and memories from among the different trips you have made. It would be great to hear some more about your planning processes. Your trips are always interesting and it goes without saying they wouldn't be so without all your pre-planning.
Your Route 66 video is how I found your channel. My family mostly travels via road trips. Your channel is my first stop when planning! I loved your answer to the souvenir question because we visited Roswell back in April and because of your video I to had to get my own wooden alien! Thank y'all so much for these videos and safe travels!!
We absolutely are hooked on your videos. You and Pops make a great road trip team and we plan our trips based on your itineraries. And our motto is: “Be Like Pops-Eat More Pie.” (Maybe y’all need to sell T-shirt’s with this ;) ). Happy Travels to all of you.
I loved that give gave us a more "inside look" at your travels. My husband and I have watched every single one of your videos. We are planning a New Mexico trip for Labor Day and Utah trip for November! You and Pops have a very special Father/Son relationship, you're blessed!
Just got back from Iceland, spent two weeks there and the way you plan your trips is EXACTLY how I do haha how much time do we have? What's our route? Points of interest along the way? Must see things. build the skeleton. estimate times. But yeah if you go to a place and feel like you didn't see it all, that's a good thing in my opinion, shows you what an amazing place it is!
That’s a good idea. Josh could glean all the food arguments from the videos and compile them!! Need to give you credit if he ever does that. We’ve had fun over those arguments!!
I enjoy watching and traveling with you and Pops!! You have a wonderful family, I enjoy your channel very much and you guys are awesome!! Where are we off too next? I’m ready.
Hey there, I’m really grateful for your videos. You and your dad or wife have a way of making me feel I’m with you and that is. lol. Keep on trucking my friends and taking videos. 😁
Route 66 was the 1st of your videos I saw. Blue Ridge Parkway was among my favorites. Seeing all those grizzly bears was scariest. You go to a lot of places and I like to see where you guys show up. Well done mates...well done 👍
This was great. Always good to see you both doing things together. I'm gonna have to side with Pops on the sandwich thing though Josh. We are hoping our next trip to Hawaii ends in seeing lava, which did not happen the first go round. Long strange story haha
Well as time would have it, I was watching this on a lunch break...eating Subway. LOL Great video once again. Lots of good questions and answers. I like how you get the whole family involved at the beginning. God bless!
0:53 Pops has the right idea😊 Seriously, nothing beats that view. I remember going there for the first time when i was 8 years old it almost felt like i was looking at one giant painting
Hi Josh and Pops, at the risk of sounding sappy, I have to thank you both for posting these videos. The father-son ones (esp when you get out of California) are so comforting to me from the playful energy you both have, the stops you take (things like the Dr. Pepper museum, donut shops, etc.) and even the background music. I struggle with depression (so sometimes getting out is really hard outside of work), and I had a pretty traumatic Route 66 road trip experience with an abusive partner who made me feel bad for wanting to take fun sightseeing stops to take pics and explore. Your videos bring back memories of better roadtrips, and give me hope that maybe I too can one day have comforting, easy-going, playful roadtrips with a partner like y'all who are proof that not all dudes have toxic masculinity, and that some just like to have some good, old-fashioned, fun. :)
Wow that sounds really rough. Glad our trips can lighten things for you a bit. So encouraging to us for you to say that! My prayer is also that you can find a partner to share your love of travel with you!!
@@popshiking I can't tell you how much I appreciate your comment! Thank you so much for your encouragement & prayer! I will hold onto this. 🙏🏼 (BTW, I didn't know you had your own channel until now! It looks great, & I'm excited to have just subscribed. I'm a millennial but sense that all of your "Grey Hair Hiking Tips" will be more than applicable, fun, and inspiring for me too.)
So sorry to hear of your previous road trip, that is really sad to hear. I hope the videos do encourage you to get out on the road again and to make some better memories for sure
@@ThroughMyLens TYSM for your comment! You & your Dad are pretty iconic to me (more so than celebs since I watch your videos more than TV these days), & its so nice that you both took the time to share some supportive words. Y'all are kind both on & off the screen. I really appreciate it. :)
So excited for Pops & Josh going to another Experience for them And US!! Recently returned from that area wish I had more time in the area looking forward to seeing it Through Your Lens!! Safe Travels All The Best! Be Well Be Safe & Stay Blessed.
I plan my road trips the same way you do and for my upcoming road trip in New England in October, I used a lot of info from your videos when you and Pops were there. Big thanks in advance! BTW...Custer State Park is amazing!
This was an excellent video. Thank you for answering questions that I did not know that I should have. I have retired and my husband will be in the next few years. We want to visit so many places. You have given us so many places to visit. Thank you both. We enjoy watching. As with many others, our initial video was your Route 66.
Thanks Josh for including this video You kind of touched on it a bit and your Dad did. a lot of hard work and thought goes into your videos but there is enough spontaneity to allow you to shift around to what you think would interest you and Pops which in turn draws your audience in. Keep up the good work and expanding your viewer base by going outside Cali
Larry from long island Pops I can't believe you said yes and Kansas as favorite listening music.Just one question old yes or poppy yes from the 80s and later. Never your standard 4/4 time I hope anyway I love you guys keep up the extraordinary work
Probably I rank my yes album favorites… 1. Close to the edge 2. Relayer 3. Fragile 4. Tales. I know not everyone is a fan of tales. Got Josh and his friends listening to them when they were in high school. Just saw Jon Anderson recently in St Louis. He was good as was the backup band.
Lots of fun, as always with you two! It was nice to get some behind-the-scenes info on your trips and your individual choices. Josh really puts in a lot of effort on the videos, Pops adds his own flavor, and the combination is perfection! Loved the twins' answers, and I'm with Pops on the Fritos...Original only!😁
Love what y'all do. My wife and I watch all the videos from New Orleans. We are moving to Cali in two years and your videos help keep us sane until then. Thanks!.....do not come down here in the summer. The heat and humidity is not fun.
Just came back from a trip to Big Bend National Park totally inspired by Josh and Pops. The awesome insights that you provided in your travel guide made my trip so much easier to plan, especially with travelling such long distances. I am already planning my next trip to Alaska. I'm sure I will be rewatching all your Alaska videos many times before I head off. Appreciate all the travel tips and insights.
Love this video dynamic of you and Pops. It was fun to see you guys on the road answering questions. Well, you already know that I’m Pops number one fan 😂 so any videos with Pops are fun to watch. Also, it was a nice twist to hear the whole family mention their favorite spots. Thanks for sharing, Josh. 🙌🏽
You are my BFF fan! I was especially impressed with the twins answers. Even as a barely 3 year old Jack would mention how beautiful the mountains were as we drive through Alaska! Thx so much for your support!
This was an absolutely delightful video!!! I loved how you asked all of the family members questions. Pops is just a great Dad, Grandpa, and traveler!! Go Illini!!! 🧡💙
Thank you for sharing your vlogs with us ,some of us are home bound . The pandemic turned me into a very cautious person I started to freak out Thank you with lots of ❤ & 🙏s 💯
I’ve traveled for nearly 50 years taking the wife, kids (when we could) and other extended family. I never realized it was so unusual until my now 49 year old nephew introduced me to his new wife as his favorite relative. He told her that I was the only person to ever take him to the Grand Canyon (when he was 16). Now at my advanced age it is so pleasing to know that impact on children in the family. We all got great experiences seeing and doing these travels together.
Nice to hear you are exploring South Dakota! Always looks like an amazing trip over there, can't wait to see the video. If you are still in the Black Hills and it fits into your route, check out the Bicycle Sculpture in Pringle, SD--just the sort of wacky roadside attraction you guys love to see!
I've been watching you for the last 6 months or so. I always thought your Pop looked familiar. Since he says "hoagies" and cheesesteaks I assume he's from South Jersy. I was born and raised in Philly but have been living in the South Jersey burbs since the late 70s. I'm about your Pop's age and maybe a little older. In the early 00's I started taking an annual camping road trip out west with my adult son and later with my son-in-law. Great times and great memories. Keep up the good work!
Started watching your videos recently and my favorites are the ones with pops. Anytime he’s in one I’m stoked. I lost my dad 2 weeks ago and let me tell you this Q & A with your pops brought out all the feels. Also, I live on the Big Island about 30 minutes from Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. I think you’d find so many more things to do on the Big Island that would shine in your videos so please consider making a trip out one day soon!
Wow I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you have many beautiful memories to reflect on. I’m always remembering that there is a finite number of times we will be able to travel together and I want to make each time memorable. Thx for reminding me of that once again! May God comfort you and your family in your loss.
I thought I was the only one who planned trips using spreadsheets and a custom Google Map! This was a fun video to watch so we could get an insight into how these videos get planned. And to see your interaction with Pops!
Hey thanks for this video! Your channel was an inspiration for what I’m doing, but I’m still trying to find my own style. It’s good to hear that overshooting footage is normal haha
Never been to Lake Tahoe? I'm revoking your California card right now Pops....deporting you back to New Jersey (hey what exit?)!! You gotta hit Lake Tahoe!! Ok to serious stuff...I enjoy all your channels because you show me places I've been, but a new angle/look on them. You show me places I haven't been...and the video style and voice over stuff just makes it fun to watch and learn. Not gonna lie...I've been to a LOT of the places you've been to...haha. Great minds!! haha. Keep on doing what you all do!! Thought it was funny that Pops hates heights and his wife's favorite place is the PCH....rocks and cliffs...wonder if she's been to Big Sur? HA!
Thanks for the Q and A video Josh. My husband and I watch most of your videos, we live in Australia and love arm chair travel! You and your Pops have a lovely dynamic that is a joy to watch. I was wondering if your videos and photography is your full time job?
My husband and I have been thinking of buying a small camper...but I argue...we could do road trips, save $$ on gas, stay in hotels...like you and Pops !!! I would love to see a tally of how much some of your trips actually cost to make my case !!! Thank you ! Love watching your videos - thank you for taking us along !! PS - you have such a wonderful family !!
Thanks! I shared the full cost on the Route 66 tips video and the Alaska Highway video too I think. It is more than an RV but it is also faster and more adaptable so we prefer it at the moment. RV could be fun in the future rhough
Hi Josh! This Q&A was great and I have a question about a trip you may or may not have done! Have you been to the Avenue of the Giants? Thanks for this video! I enjoyed seeing your whole family on this one!❤️😀🇺🇸
Awesome Video. The last part is really going to help next time I plan vacations. I was shocked you only drive 9 hours at most while my driving days can be up to 16 hours.
Can't wait for the South Dakota video. My wife and I just got to Kona HI today and are going to Hawaii Volcanoes tomorrow for the day. I heard the volcano isn't bubbling now but it's the best at night according to some locals
Please do a HWY 12 Outer Banks road trip. There is no place like it. So many cool places, history, abd good food. Wright Brothers Memorial, largest sand dune in the east at Jockeys Ridge, awesome light houses, wild life and tours. It's right up your alley
Excellent video, as always. The top three national parks are really hard to choose. For me: 1: Yellowstone 2: Grand Canyon 3: Bryce Canyon, but being "East Coast" people does figure into this very tough decision. There are so many great national parks and we love your videos on all of them. Thank you!
Dots honey mustard pretzels are the first thing I look for when we come over from the UK! Went through a lot of bags when we just did Yellowstone and Grand Teton. Back over for the Washington State parks in August so will be looking for them again!
Heading to Yosemite this Thursday with the family, we are so excited to be there even though there's a heat wave going on now. It's 103 today there, we are camping at the valley. Have you been to Glacier? It's an amazing place so many things to experience and wonderful hikes too.
I have been to 48 countries. The most beautiful place I have ever been to is: "Garden of the Sleeping Giant." A huge orchid growing area on Nada, Viti Levu in Fiji. OUTSTANDING!
They just don’t make men like your Pops any longer! What a great role model for his son😊
Yeah they do its called a man with common sense.
@@2CorgiMom 👍 agreed
That’s really kind! Thx!!
I agree, they broke the mold when they made pops!
I think that even if the pandemic didn't happen, your videos would still become popular. They're so dang good in how they awaken something nostalgic in many of us that we miss now with the onset of how technology has been able to isolate people indoors more. No offense to the videos with your wife and kids but these ones with your Dad really go straight to the heart and are the most fun!
You are really kind! Thx for watching for the encouragement!
Thanks for the kind words! The videos with my dad really do connect with people and I love being able to see that connection, it is so cool
I love the road trips with Pops, but I've also really enjoyed some of your adventures with your wife, too!🍒 Thanks for sharing so many wonderful places with us who wish to travel more, too!🎶 My favorite thing about your vlogs is how positively you narrate, Josh~💯
Love the road trips with Pops!
I do too, so much fun!
You two are so blessed to enjoy such a wonderfully close father/son relationship. I dont think they are so common and so it's very wonderful to see! God bless you and keep you safe in your travels!
We do realize how blessed we are and don’t take it for granted. So sad some of the difficulties people will share in comments that just break your heart. But we always appreciate the reminder so thx!
We really do love traveling together and have such a great time with it
This kind of video is so refreshing just to get know you guys more. Thanks Josh and Pops.
Loved this q and a. Your twins’ answers at the beginning were priceless and spot on- cherry blossoms and glaciers are my favourites too! Looking forward to seeing the South Dakota road trip.
Thanks for the comment. I thought it was so cute to hear their favorites haha

I (female, solo traveler) just stumbled across your vlogs a couple months ago and absolutely love them. I have binged watched a lot of them, including with your wife and twins and all of them inspired me to do the same, once I retire (late 2025). I just can't believe Pops hasn't been to Lake Tahoe. I lived up at the lake for 13 years and would move back in a heart beat. But for the time being I'm stuck in Florida. 😞You have to do a road trip there. It is breathtaking beautiful. Thank you for sharing and I'm looking forward to many more videos.
I enjoy your travels with Pops ❤❤!!! Enjoy your time with your Dad. When you get older, you will have all of these memories ❤️!!
I love both of you! Love watching dad & son dynamic ♥️
You are sweet! Thank you.
Thanks for watching the videos!
We love your videos! When my wife and I started planning a road trip from Ontario Canada to San Diego in 2022, your videos inspired us to see as much as we could... especially the Route 66 videos! Now that she has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's in her 50's, travel is one of her favourite things, so we've been creating our own travel videos... We don't get a lot of views, but our friends love seeing our adventures, and you were a tremendous inspiration to us! Thanks so much!
Thank y’all for my @throughmylens Sunday fix. I’m retired Air Force, traveled a lot. But you and Pops travels are the best.
Really appreciate you watching. I bet you did travel a lot in the AF. My uncle was a Marine pilot and he had many amazing stories.
Really appreciate you watching the videos!
Love watching you travel with your dad.. makes me miss and think of my dad when he was alive…
Cool behind the scenes video. Love the quality work on this channel
Really appreciate it. Thanks for the comment!
We enjoy the chemistry that you had Pops have, you both make a great team. But we also love to watch when your family is going with you. The kids are so cute. We also love the destinations that you showcase. Great Job. Safe travels.

It would be great to hear some more about your planning processes. Your trips are always interesting and it goes without saying they wouldn't be so without all your pre-planning.

You guys are awesome!!!
Love seeing Pops on the road trips!
Thx! We appreciate you watching.
❤Family.❤
Love the food arguments. 😄
That’s a good idea. Josh could glean all the food arguments from the videos and compile them!! Need to give you credit if he ever does that. We’ve had fun over those arguments!!
Haha we love joking with each other
I enjoy watching and traveling with you and Pops!! You have a wonderful family, I enjoy your channel very much and you guys are awesome!! Where are we off too next? I’m ready.
We have road trips on South Dakota, the north shore of Minnesota and Michigan. And then a bunch of New York content as well
Hey there, I’m really grateful for your videos. You and your dad or wife have a way of making me feel I’m with you and that is. lol. Keep on trucking my friends and taking videos. 😁
Just found you! Hubby and I will be binge watching this weekend. ❤
Route 66 was the 1st of your videos I saw.
Blue Ridge Parkway was among my favorites.
Seeing all those grizzly bears was scariest.
You go to a lot of places and I like to see where
you guys show up. Well done mates...well done 👍
Thanks so much for stopping by and watching!
I agree with “pops”, Jersey Mike is great! #13 Mike’s way.
I will have to try that one!
Same, but I also add either jalapeños or cherry pepper relish!
You two are great men, so kind.
Very kind of you to say!
Josh, I enjoy every single one of your videos !
Very kind of you to say, thanks for watching!
Great job again as always. Yall are the best. You make these videos seem so personal and relatable to all families
Thank you so much!😊
Love you traveling with your dad. So lovely!
Thx for watching. We really do have a good time together!
Thank you so much!
This was great. Always good to see you both doing things together. I'm gonna have to side with Pops on the sandwich thing though Josh. We are hoping our next trip to Hawaii ends in seeing lava, which did not happen the first go round. Long strange story haha
Well as time would have it, I was watching this on a lunch break...eating Subway. LOL
Great video once again. Lots of good questions and answers. I like how you get the whole family involved at the beginning.
God bless!
haha! I hope it was a good sandwich!
I love Yosemite !!!
0:53 Pops has the right idea😊 Seriously, nothing beats that view. I remember going there for the first time when i was 8 years old it almost felt like i was looking at one giant painting
I have been there many times and am still overwhelmed every visit. I always go back to the first time and think “this can’t be real!!”

Love your videos which got me interested in doing Road Trips. Luv your trips with your dad.🥰
That’s awesome! We’ve adopted the phrase (whenever it came from) that the route is the destination!! A fun way to look at travel.
Glad you like them! I hope you do some road trips as well!
Glad to learn that Pops is a prog rock lover.
My college buddy got me into those and other bands. But I still love the Beatles and anything out of Motown!
Cool Q and A on the road trip.
Thanks for watching!
I didn't plan on commenting, but when your pops said he's never been to Tahoe, I had to comment and cast my opinion to get him there!
Point made! I need to get there!!
I agree, he needs to get to Lake Tahoe
So excited for Pops & Josh going to another Experience for them And US!! Recently returned from that area wish I had more time in the area looking forward to seeing it Through Your Lens!! Safe Travels All The Best! Be Well Be Safe & Stay Blessed.
Thanks so much for watching the videos!
Precious moments hanging with your dad is so very cool

Thanks for this great and really informative vid. Excellent! Oh and I'm still in love with Pops, my dream man. 💓
Hahaha that’s funny! Thank you for watching!!
Thanks for making these videos. They are awesome!
Glad you like them!
Hello from Singapore. Always feel good to watch your video especially the bond between you and your dad.
I hope one day I can do a road trip in USA 🇺🇸
Thx for watching! I got to visit your country once and loved it!

Probably I rank my yes album favorites…
1. Close to the edge
2. Relayer
3. Fragile
4. Tales.
I know not everyone is a fan of tales. Got Josh and his friends listening to them when they were in high school.
Just saw Jon Anderson recently in St Louis. He was good as was the backup band.
Lots of fun, as always with you two! It was nice to get some behind-the-scenes info on your trips and your individual choices.

Haha fair enough, would love to go back to New Orleans but def not in the summer haha
Love the videos. Esp you and pops. I wish I was able to do that with my dad. Live life every moment with your love ones and keep traveling
Really liked this video! Always inspires me to do another roadtrip. "Roadtrippers" is great for creating routes for roadtrips.
I’m from California, I was surprised at how pretty the metroparks were in the suburbs of Cleveland (Lakewood, rocky river, etc).
Just came back from a trip to Big Bend National Park totally inspired by Josh and Pops. The awesome insights that you provided in your travel guide made my trip so much easier to plan, especially with travelling such long distances. I am already planning my next trip to Alaska. I'm sure I will be rewatching all your Alaska videos many times before I head off. Appreciate all the travel tips and insights.
Oh wow! Two of our favorite spots, big bend and Alaska, I hope you love the trip to Alaska and let me know if you have questions!
Thank you so much. Please stay safe to you and your father. I lost my father and only two brothers to ALS. Peace.
Wow that is so hard. So sorry for those losses.
So sorry for your loss

You are the best, always appreciate your support! 😀
We love your videos and your pop is awesome keep up the good work
Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
Thank you! Will do!
This was an absolutely delightful video!!! I loved how you asked all of the family members questions. Pops is just a great Dad, Grandpa, and traveler!! Go Illini!!! 🧡💙
Thx for watching! Yep got a new hat!!
We had a lot of fun with it, it was cute to hear the kids answers haha
Thank you for sharing your vlogs with us ,some of us are home bound . The pandemic turned me into a very cautious person I started to freak out Thank you with lots of ❤ & 🙏s 💯
Thank you so much for watching them and for the comment!
Great video I love watching you both ❤❤
I’ve traveled for nearly 50 years taking the wife, kids (when we could) and other extended family. I never realized it was so unusual until my now 49 year old nephew introduced me to his new wife as his favorite relative. He told her that I was the only person to ever take him to the Grand Canyon (when he was 16). Now at my advanced age it is so pleasing to know that impact on children in the family. We all got great experiences seeing and doing these travels together.
That’s so cool to have that kind of impact. I’m a firm believe in travel changing you for the better
Nice to hear you are exploring South Dakota! Always looks like an amazing trip over there, can't wait to see the video. If you are still in the Black Hills and it fits into your route, check out the Bicycle Sculpture in Pringle, SD--just the sort of wacky roadside attraction you guys love to see!
We missed that, next time! We loved the Black Hills SO much
I've been watching you for the last 6 months or so. I always thought your Pop looked familiar. Since he says "hoagies" and cheesesteaks I assume he's from South Jersy. I was born and raised in Philly but have been living in the South Jersey burbs since the late 70s. I'm about your Pop's age and maybe a little older. In the early 00's I started taking an annual camping road trip out west with my adult son and later with my son-in-law. Great times and great memories. Keep up the good work!
I grew up in Cinnaminson but left when I got married in ‘79. Haven’t been back much since as the family has pretty much all moved away.
Started watching your videos recently and my favorites are the ones with pops. Anytime he’s in one I’m stoked. I lost my dad 2 weeks ago and let me tell you this Q & A with your pops brought out all the feels. Also, I live on the Big Island about 30 minutes from Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. I think you’d find so many more things to do on the Big Island that would shine in your videos so please consider making a trip out one day soon!
Wow I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you have many beautiful memories to reflect on. I’m always remembering that there is a finite number of times we will be able to travel together and I want to make each time memorable. Thx for reminding me of that once again! May God comfort you and your family in your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss. That is so hard. I would love to explore the Big Island. I am sure it is incredibly beautiful!
I’d love to see Hawaii!❤️😀🇺🇸
Great video. Yes, the Q & A videos are awesome. I like to see how different people travel because I've gotten a lot of great ideas from it.
Great to hear you can get some ideas from our travels!
We love Spain too. Just returned from a wonderful visit there.
So cool! Yea it was one of the best trips ever for my wife and I
I thought I was the only one who planned trips using spreadsheets and a custom Google Map! This was a fun video to watch so we could get an insight into how these videos get planned. And to see your interaction with Pops!
Glad you liked it and yea, I am a google maps lover haha
just found your channel, and man i love it! i love the outdoors so much and i enjoy watching all these amazing videos! keep it up!!
Loved this! Always look forward to the road trip videos with Pops.
Really appreciate you watching!
More to come! We have a bunch of videos coming up when I can edit them haha
Props to Pops. That's a lot of hiking. I plan all my trips too and try to get as much as I can in because I never know if I will be back.
That’s how I feel. I always hope to be back but you never know!
I love your videos. Being able to have adventures with your dad is pretty cool.
Haha we have a good time. Thx for stopping by!
We have such a great time traveling!
The same to mine Yosemite and Yellowstone Park
Love it!! I’m always watching your videos to plan my trips 😊
The Best!! Love ❤️ this channel to the Moon 🌙 and Back !! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Really appreciate it!
Hey thanks for this video! Your channel was an inspiration for what I’m doing, but I’m still trying to find my own style. It’s good to hear that overshooting footage is normal haha
So cool, I will have to check out your stuff as well!
oh - and the route 66 "blew up" not because of Covid etc. - it blew up because it was excellent !
Very kind of you to say!
Never been to Lake Tahoe? I'm revoking your California card right now Pops....deporting you back to New Jersey (hey what exit?)!! You gotta hit Lake Tahoe!!
Ok to serious stuff...I enjoy all your channels because you show me places I've been, but a new angle/look on them. You show me places I haven't been...and the video style and voice over stuff just makes it fun to watch and learn. Not gonna lie...I've been to a LOT of the places you've been to...haha. Great minds!! haha.
Keep on doing what you all do!! Thought it was funny that Pops hates heights and his wife's favorite place is the PCH....rocks and cliffs...wonder if she's been to Big Sur? HA!
Haha deport pops back to New Jersey!
I very much enjoyed this video. Motivated me to get busy planning a road trip or two!
So awesome to hear, I hope you have a great trip!
Thanks for the Q and A video Josh. My husband and I watch most of your videos, we live in Australia and love arm chair travel!
You and your Pops have a lovely dynamic that is a joy to watch.
I was wondering if your videos and photography is your full time job?
So cool, I would love to go to Australia! It has been on my bucket list for so long! Yep, this is my full time job, it has been for about 6 years
My husband and I have been thinking of buying a small camper...but I argue...we could do road trips, save $$ on gas, stay in hotels...like you and Pops !!! I would love to see a tally of how much some of your trips actually cost to make my case !!! Thank you ! Love watching your videos - thank you for taking us along !! PS - you have such a wonderful family !!
Thanks! I shared the full cost on the Route 66 tips video and the Alaska Highway video too I think. It is more than an RV but it is also faster and more adaptable so we prefer it at the moment. RV could be fun in the future rhough
Hi Josh! This Q&A was great and I have a question about a trip you may or may not have done! Have you been to the Avenue of the Giants? Thanks for this video! I enjoyed seeing your whole family on this one!❤️😀🇺🇸
I have, here is a video I made 4 years ago on it th-cam.com/video/30t_EsuGG60/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_qH7t2h6qjrcSt8J
Love your channel currently visiting Paris!
Awesome Video. The last part is really going to help next time I plan vacations. I was shocked you only drive 9 hours at most while my driving days can be up to 16 hours.
Ya I feel like 9-10 hours is the most we can do consistently for a few days at a time
Can't wait for the South Dakota video. My wife and I just got to Kona HI today and are going to Hawaii Volcanoes tomorrow for the day. I heard the volcano isn't bubbling now but it's the best at night according to some locals
Oh wow, I hope it is awesome!
Love this new video setup too! Looking forward to more 🙌🏽
Yay! Thank you!
Please do a HWY 12 Outer Banks road trip. There is no place like it. So many cool places, history, abd good food. Wright Brothers Memorial, largest sand dune in the east at Jockeys Ridge, awesome light houses, wild life and tours. It's right up your alley
That is high on my list to do, what time of year is best?
Excellent video, as always. The top three national parks are really hard to choose. For me: 1: Yellowstone 2: Grand Canyon 3: Bryce Canyon, but being "East Coast" people does figure into this very tough decision. There are so many great national parks and we love your videos on all of them. Thank you!
Hard to argue with that top three. First time I saw the GC was like speechless for a while!
Those are fantastic choices!
Haha love your snack lady comment! Yeah the crunched up Fritos with like chili in it was called hay stacks I think.
Crack me up beautiful family!! Love ❤️ Pops to max!! 😢😊😊
Thanks for watching!
Dots honey mustard pretzels are the first thing I look for when we come over from the UK! Went through a lot of bags when we just did Yellowstone and Grand Teton. Back over for the Washington State parks in August so will be looking for them again!
They are soooooo good haha glad you like them too
Heading to Yosemite this Thursday with the family, we are so excited to be there even though there's a heat wave going on now. It's 103 today there, we are camping at the valley. Have you been to Glacier? It's an amazing place so many things to experience and wonderful hikes too.
I have been to 48 countries. The most beautiful place I have ever been to is: "Garden of the Sleeping Giant." A huge orchid growing area on Nada, Viti Levu in Fiji. OUTSTANDING!
Sounds amazing, I would love to see that!
@@ThroughMyLens Do a Google search. They have a nice website too
