I am a whole lot older than y’all but i continue to learn from younger people. After over 48 years of cooking, i love getting new ideas from y’all. Thank you for sharing your skills.
When in the Bayfield area on Hwy 13 you have to drive right by Coco - Artisan Bakery & Good Eats in Washburn. It is so worth the stop. Also the best part of being in that area is how friendly everyone is
So happy to see your video today! I started twitching a little yesterday waiting for my weekly fix of Irene Iron Travels. 😂 May God bless and protect you throughout all your adventures!
The noises you heard were probably Bigfoot hunting and eating his prey! Sometimes he plays with his food before he eats it!!! Yep there is something special about the "Up North", I've vacationed in the UP of Michigan every year of my life. However it was always in the same place. Very special place indeed, but just a couple of years ago I'm now exploring other incredible places in the UP. I'm just a few weeks away from another trip up there. This year my goal is three separate trips... Summer, Fall and a Winter trip. I've got my show shoes, cross country skis and Airstream Basecamp trailer all set for the winter. Can't wait...
Recently found a Geyser shower (non-heated version) at an REI garage sale and think it would fit the bill on a post-workout sponge bath. You could also get a third sponge for cleaning your Blackstone. You do need a power source (which you have) - it only uses two liters of cold water and the last one of boiling water. More later.
Excellent that your tent dried out that fast, and that's a great view too. It's always nice when I get to go to Wi., Mi., and Mn., those are the states I grew up camping in. 😁👍
If your looking for a low contact point find some kind of tow,ratchet strap with some kind of loop on the end and lay it on the ground and roll over it with your truck tire to hold it
You guys got rain and can build campfires! So cool! While here in WA and OR I heard the moss falling off the trees in the Columbia River gorge rain forest while Rad Biking there last week. We can’t even have propane fires our goto after wood camp fire bans in OR, or cook with charcoal anywhere out here. This morning I did a nice cool 8am bike ride around the Red Rock Canyon outside Vegas in 90 degrees! Thanks for letting us hear your rain! LoL
Great campsite to enjoy nature. What a great way to start your day having coffee/tea with a view of the lake. Bayfield looks like a charming town and that pizza yum . I love to cook so I enjoy cooking videos . I'm always looking for new ideas and recipes. I guess that's why the Food network is so popular. I'm thinking of joining your exercise program. I definitely added lbs during Covid lockdown. Looking forward to the next camping video
OH,YOU DID A CLIFFHANGER AGAIN!!! I love y'all. I look forward to your videos. Chris,I love your thoughtful and experienced approach to boondock/camping cooking. It is my favorite part! Safe travels and that truck is dope.
Thanks Shay! Yeah... I gotta cut the videos off around 30 minutes.....I don't want anyone falling asleep!😂 Chris is looking forward to getting back to a small kitchen that's for sure! The 4 foot van kitchen never looked so good to us after a truck!
I work so hard during the day and I always look forward to coming down and watching your content. You guys have such an amazing view on life and I love living vicariously through your experiences.
The camping spot by the water was amazing! I used to use that show up trick for walking. My rule was if I didn’t want to do it I would make myself do 10 minutes and if I wanted to stop no guilt. I only actually stopped once and that time I was fine with it. It does actually work.
Very peaceful spot! And it wasn't very busy at all during the week. Good to know there is a first come first spot there while visiting the area....we'll be back for sure!
That was a great spot and always good to look out over the water. This video had a bit of everything and great to see you being tourists in your home state!
Driving the loop round and round for 20 minutes trying to get that perfect spot. Yeah, we’ve done that a time or two. The first come, first served campground was nice. Some type of shelter tent or awning would help you guys with the rain.
Always a breath of fresh air when seeing your vidéos. Chris your were so funny with your chocolate snacks in the car. It is also rainy in France, someone have stolen the summer unfortunatly. Take care beautiful people.
looks like fun you two are having.my a.m. workout are arms and sit ups.I sit up in bed then get up go to the coffee maker and make coffee sit down at the table with cup of coffee and do some arm curls.LOL i getting things ready for a week long trip on the OREGON COAST.TAKE CARE C-YA (take the kayak trip)
Cool! Bay field and Madeline Island are the greatest. I have camped on Madeline Island many times and stayed in a motor home. We towed a small motorcycle that we toured the area on. I also used to bring my boat up there and tent camped on some of the outer islands. This is one of my all time favorite places to camp. You two are truly blessed. Enjoy!!! 😊👍🇳🇴
So cool! I had no idea there was a Dalrymple park campground up there. I was a Dalrymple (my late husband and kids father) for a long while. It’s definitely a more common name than I ever realized ☺️. I’m loving following along with your tent travels!
Put an anchor, a eye bolt or u-bolt, in one of your leveling blocks or in a piece of wood you can park on. It will hold your band from the low level you want.
Hello Chris and Aaron!! Thank you for sharing these experiences up on the Great Lakes area!! On my trips to St Paul, I've ventured up to Duluth (loved it) and International Falls (not so much). And, I've stayed in Bemidji for about a total of a week. I'll will add the Bayfield town to the list to explore. I think my next overnighter up in MN will be in October to take my boss to the Rolling Stones concert. Have either of you two been up to the Edmund Fitzgerald Museum, by chance? Bleh....those southeastern and midwestern areas sure produce big rain storms!! That stinks that you are fighting it with your tent. Head back out west!! It doesn't rain as much. Looking forward to some of your cooking shows, for sure!! We had some friends stay here over the 4th of July. They had a Blackstone grill; and what it produced was incredible. It just looked so versatile--- softening some vegetables, cooking any kind of meat you could think of, and...of course, a grand pancake and french toast maker!! Some ideas for your shows--- mexican options, meat and vegetables, etc. I look forward to the ORVs coming it; we can do a pizza in the oven! Safe travels!!
Hey Alan! Glad you are getting to explore MN a bit! I (Aaron) did get a chance to go to the Museum as a kid and I can remember the giant boat like yesterday. I got a pencil souvenir! lol.... Also, I contacted ORV the other day and they said they are ON SCCHEDULE for producing the 22fqs line at the end of July here. So the Titanium's should start late next month and be done by September. So possible late August or early September deliveries depending on where the units are inline in production! I get to check back in August.
Chris, and Aaron... I’m just catching up on your videos. We finally picked up our coach about five weeks ago... already put 6000 miles on it. We’ve added 850 watts of solar and 8000 watt hours of lithium. And we’ve spent a lot of nights in parks struggling to get connectivity... and missing your videos! We’re finding it awesome planning out only a few days ahead. Not sure how (if) I ever put in a productive day of work! But after fifty years working nonstop, it glorious!
Hey guys 👋. Whoa.... nice power setup!! Glad to hear your having fun in your new rig and it will get easier once you find your rhythm. Connectivity can be tough at times and in some areas!
Great camping spot, looking forward to your kayaking videos. It looks so pretty there. For the low point you mentioned you need, if you are not familiar with mclean metalworks, they make hammock mounts & one goes around your tire. Could be a nice addition for your new set up & possibly use the mount for your workout.
We finally got our van last month and now we're slowly stocking her with goodies. Just bought the Blackstone 17". I just have to find out if I can hook it up to my RV propane. Can't wait to get cooking. Beautiful scenery this video. You guys never disappoint. ;)
Hahaha. Its true....but what about this site? It may have three more seconds of sunlight and we will be able to dry out quicker !! I still miss it ! Great to hear those accents again.
Fast motion workout Bwahahaaa You’re killin me Smalls. Take Care Safe Travels ~ Why you guys have not just exploded on TH-cam...I cannot know! Great video ❤️ you guys
Beautiful campsite. We have been over to Door County and loved it. May have been a Bobcat screaming during the night. That can be pretty intense and scary.
That's a great looking site! Yes, I also enjoy your cooking ideas. My bet is the animal sound was fox. They make an awful sounding scream for various reasons. The first time we heard those sounds, it was like something killing a calf. Google fox sounds.
Beautiful up there! Yes, I just talked with the factory and they are on schedule to start the model line building at the end of the month. They have to do the mountain series 22fqs first and then the Titanium version which we got starts right after that in August. We Will know more next month, but it could be as early as late August or early September.
Yes! Hard to belive it might only be a little over a month away! Time flies for sure! That is one of the reasons we're doing all of this........ time just keeps ticking away! Thanks, appreciate you watching!
It can be tough to start for sure! We'll make sure we get back to some cooking videos and skills. If you haven't seen some of our older ones there is a Playlist on our channel page. RV Cooking & Healthy RV Recipes: th-cam.com/play/PLdJBTbJVb0R06RRQvK9FZHDZi0FNm124-.html Thanks for watching!
Why do we do that? Why do we go out and explore the world but never own our own backyard? When I moved to California, I found the people that live in California, especially those that have been here all of their life, explore their backyard. Many barely leave the state, but in the Midwest, we look to visit every place else but our own state. I now make it a point to explore my own backyard and appreciate it just as I do anyplace else that I visit. I hope everybody else reading this comment does the same. You will be amazed at what is in your city and state and even country.
It is weird! Good for you getting out there and exploring! We are making a conscious effort to do the same! We just filmed a minneapolis bike tour and it was a blast!
I hear people talking about going to foreign countries when they haven't even discovered this great land, with so many geographical areas that are so different, why travel abroad when you don't even know your own country?
"Do it in the morning" hehe...oh workout? Nevermind. 😬 I love sushi, do you have a healthy sushi recipe? Avocado oil healthier than sunflower, canola, sesame, olive or safflower oil?
Hahaha. I do not have a healthy sushi recipe, sorry! My favorite oils are extra virgin olive oil and avocado oil. I like to use the EVOO for low heat cooking or using for dressings, and I like the avocado oil for high heat on the Blackstone. I do keep sesame oil onboard as well to give my Asian dishes a flavorful kick, but I don't use it daily. - Chris
Being such an organized team, I’m sure that the claustrophobic mess in the cab of your pickup drives you crazy. Funny thing about Wisconsin is that when you look on the map, it sure seems like the Upper Peninsula of Michigan should really be part of Wisconsin. There is a story behind this ……
Since you guys surely must pass by Aldi’s stores along your journeys, check out their “Zero Net Carb” bread - 45 calories a slice, 9g of carbs, 9g of fiber, $3.99 a loaf. We’ve made this a part of our everyday diet since we started a low-carb/high-fiber eating lifestyle about a year ago.
Voting for young raccoons, old enough now to be out "playing", hassling, or competing for food, etc. They make that screech/screaming sound. Fun to see the more primitive campsite & set-up. Thanks!
Not sure if it is what you heard, but we have coyotes in our neighborhood and they can make noises like an animal being tortured which sounds similar to what you heard.
We have heard coyotes out in the desert before and it didn't sound like them. Although, the first time we heard coyotes it was pretty crazy sounding!! So far others have suggested bobcats and foxes.....
Thanks! So far the diesel is getting around 20 mpg on the highway and about 16.5 mpg in the city pretty consistently. Looking forward to see what happens when we tow. Hoping for 16mpg! 😁
It's good 👍 we like it. No problems so far but we only have about 3000 miles on it and haven't got a chance to take It off road much. That will change in next up coming weeks as we get out and boondock more. Still getting used to everything, but we do wish we had the 360 camera system. Would just help alot in tight situations. The truck is pretty tall and is hard to see over the nose when you get close to things.
Potato is least "good" for you when you eat it plain. The added "calories" that butter/oil give to the potato actually slows down the sugar rush the plain potato will give you. The sugar rush that carbs give you is what causes most ill health issues in the standard American diet.
We mounted it ourselves. It was pretty easy with 2 or more people and as long as your car has the crossbars that the rack sits on. If you go back a few videos on our channel we show the tent and a little bit on the rack.
Camping is about getting away from healthy eating and working out. Besides, camping in itself is a workout. Just be lazy and enjoy the outdoors like camping is supposed to be.
I'd like to see a game show where they put 10 couples in your situation.
I'd (Aaron) also like to see that!😂
Great idea. That would not only be popular, it would educational.
I could imagine a show similar to Survivor! Lol
You have a great idea brewing!!! I think Chris and Aaron have already made it 3x longer than 70% of what the contestants would.
The Great Race camping ⛺️ style!!!
For the rug, storage use a plastic fence post, and buy two caps, put rugs in the plastic post.
I am a whole lot older than y’all but i continue to learn from younger people. After over 48 years of cooking, i love getting new ideas from y’all. Thank you for sharing your skills.
Thanks Cindy! We're always learning as well! It's good to be always learning, growing, and improving right! 😃

So happy to see your video today! I started twitching a little yesterday waiting for my weekly fix of Irene Iron Travels. 😂

🤣Thanks Joe! Last week was a bit hectic with me adding a solar panel to truck! Ready to get back at it!

Nice, sounds like some good trips you have planned! And yeah...... it could have been BF! I didn't even think about him!

You could also get a third sponge for cleaning your Blackstone. You do need a power source (which you have) - it only uses two liters of cold water and the last one of boiling water. More later.
I’m planning on Wisconsin and Michigan next summer. This is great spot to check out. Thanks for sharing.
Nice! We also still need to do Michigan! We've been to sleeping bear dunes before and it is almost indescribable. Desert sands and Mexico blue waters!
Excellent that your tent dried out that fast, and that's a great view too. It's always nice when I get to go to Wi., Mi., and Mn., those are the states I grew up camping in.
😁👍
Hey I am watching this old video.
Y'all have come a long way in two years!
It looks like you found the perfect spot to stay for a few days, beautiful!
We used to travel with a small piece of plywood to place on ground when we tent camped. It worked well for uneven ground and mud places alike.
If your looking for a low contact point find some kind of tow,ratchet strap with some kind of loop on the end and lay it on the ground and roll over it with your truck tire to hold it
You guys got rain and can build campfires! So cool! While here in WA and OR I heard the moss falling off the trees in the Columbia River gorge rain forest while Rad Biking there last week. We can’t even have propane fires our goto after wood camp fire bans in OR, or cook with charcoal anywhere out here. This morning I did a nice cool 8am bike ride around the Red Rock Canyon outside Vegas in 90 degrees! Thanks for letting us hear your rain! LoL
That's petty rough out there in the PNW! We're not going to get to visit there this year like we normally do. Glad you got a ride in to beat the heat!
Great campsite to enjoy nature. What a great way to start your day having coffee/tea with a view of the lake. Bayfield looks like a charming town and that pizza yum .

Another great video! We purchased a Blackstone after seeing one of your videos - total camping game changer.
OH,YOU DID A CLIFFHANGER AGAIN!!!
I love y'all. I look forward to your videos.
Chris,I love your thoughtful and experienced approach to boondock/camping cooking. It is my favorite part!
Safe travels and that truck is dope.

Appreciate you watching as always! We love hearing this........ and don't work so hard!😉
Really cool vibe when you guys are working out and you have that music in the background. I’d like to see more of that.
Low anchor point, look at small tow strap. You can wrap around the wheel, tree, post, picnic table….
I love to what I ate for a week video from grocery shopping to meal prepping and cooking. Wisconsin looks beautiful
The camping spot by the water was amazing! I used to use that show up trick for walking. My rule was if I didn’t want to do it I would make myself do 10 minutes and if I wanted to stop no guilt. I only actually stopped once and that time I was fine with it. It does actually work.
Very peaceful spot! And it wasn't very busy at all during the week. Good to know there is a first come first spot there while visiting the area....we'll be back for sure!
Put something under the tire and roll over it. a strap with a carabiner you can clip to or just a looped strap.
That was a great spot and always good to look out over the water. This video had a bit of everything and great to see you being tourists in your home state!
Driving the loop round and round for 20 minutes trying to get that perfect spot. Yeah, we’ve done that a time or two. The first come, first served campground was nice. Some type of shelter tent or awning would help you guys with the rain.

Fun memories! It is a special place and we can't believe we waited so long to visit! Thanks Bruce!
So cool! I had no idea there was a Dalrymple park campground up there. I was a Dalrymple (my late husband and kids father) for a long while. It’s definitely a more common name than I ever realized ☺️. I’m loving following along with your tent travels!
We have a smittybilt on our truck I haven’t had any water issues but I use a water repellent spray on our other tents .
We'll have to try the spray. It did really well but after 12 hours the sides soaked through to the mattress.
Put an anchor, a eye bolt or u-bolt, in one of your leveling blocks or in a piece of wood you can park on. It will hold your band from the low level you want.
That's a great idea Don, thanks!!
The 15 minute thing works great for me for anything I've been procrastinating on.
Totally! It works! Thanks for watching!

Oh yeah, thanks for your encouragement to exercise even for a few minutes!
You bet! Gotta build the habit slowly and longer!!
Chris, and Aaron... I’m just catching up on your videos. We finally picked up our coach about five weeks ago... already put 6000 miles on it.

Hey guys 👋. Whoa.... nice power setup!! Glad to hear your having fun in your new rig and it will get easier once you find your rhythm. Connectivity can be tough at times and in some areas!
I saw the artesian wells in ashland, I didn't go further north...no skin issues and less thirsty with the well water or maybe all the tree moisture?
Great camping spot, looking forward to your kayaking videos. It looks so pretty there. For the low point you mentioned you need, if you are not familiar with mclean metalworks, they make hammock mounts & one goes around your tire. Could be a nice addition for your new set up & possibly use the mount for your workout.
Cool, thanks we'll check that out!
When is the trailer going to be available?
Hoping by the beginning of September! Getting closer....
love potatoes so much!! Spanish or cajun style on the side with eggs are so good. You may have to mix up a new spice blend :)
Yooper here. Welcome to our little part of Paradise.
Dollar store drop cloths or poncho instead of wasting trash bags. Thanks for the info about the site. Enjoy your adventures.
Thanks, good ideas!
We finally got our van last month and now we're slowly stocking her with goodies. Just bought the Blackstone 17". I just have to find out if I can hook it up to my RV propane. Can't wait to get cooking. Beautiful scenery this video. You guys never disappoint. ;)
That is awesome! Now the real fun can begin! 😃
Hahaha. Its true....but what about this site? It may have three more seconds of sunlight and we will be able to dry out quicker !! I still miss it ! Great to hear those accents again.
It's so true!
Hey you guys!!! Geez WEATHER ALERT!! If you haven’t heard you will feel it real soon! Careful good luck.
Lol, you sped up the video during your workout and here I am, slowing it down to 1/4 speed to see the workout! 😉
Fast motion workout
Bwahahaaa
You’re killin me Smalls.
Take Care
Safe Travels ~
Why you guys have not just exploded on TH-cam...I cannot know!
Great video ❤️ you guys
🤣 it sure did look a lot easier than it was!! 😂🤣 thanks jj 😜
OK, maybe you desire a pass being in Bayfield, but Beer and Brats are what folks do in Wisconsin.
Great video. Always enjoy scenes from my home state.
Beautiful campsite. We have been over to Door County and loved it. May have been a Bobcat screaming during the night. That can be pretty intense and scary.
Ohhh, yes! We've never heard one before!
Looking forward to learn more from your home state, Thanks for sharing.
That's a great looking site! Yes, I also enjoy your cooking ideas. My bet is the animal sound was fox. They make an awful sounding scream for various reasons. The first time we heard those sounds, it was like something killing a calf. Google fox sounds.
Thanks Tina! Ohh crazy... a fox...huh!😮
We had some rain on our outing. Good thing we have a Teardrop-popup hybrid.
Oh, yes, that would be nice for the rain!!
I love camping on Lake Superior! Thanks for sharing your camping exercise ideas. Any updates on the trailer?
Beautiful up there! Yes, I just talked with the factory and they are on schedule to start the model line building at the end of the month. They have to do the mountain series 22fqs first and then the Titanium version which we got starts right after that in August. We Will know more next month, but it could be as early as late August or early September.
@@IreneIronTravels I bet you can’t wait to get it 😊stay safe out there!
Yes! Hard to belive it might only be a little over a month away! Time flies for sure! That is one of the reasons we're doing all of this........ time just keeps ticking away! Thanks, appreciate you watching!
I'm curious what rear bike bag you have? I just purchased an Aventon Aventure fat tire bike and I love it!
Cool, congrats on the bike! We use a topeak bag from Amazon. amzn.to/3i98oN2
Thanks, I will check it out!
Looking forward to your cooking adventures, too!
Love the area! Used to sail the Apostles. You must have picked a quiet day to show up cuz it’s crazy busy now - especially Fri/Sat (of course)!
What a fun place to sail! Yes it was a Sunday morning after the weekend crowd! Very peaceful!
Rains coming and Chris does all the work while Aaron films. Lol
🤣🤣 the show must go on! 🤣🤣
Love your content ! Keep the videos coming ☺️
I'd love more cooking videos - especially covering the basics! I want to cook at home more, but have zero cooking skills.
It can be tough to start for sure! We'll make sure we get back to some cooking videos and skills. If you haven't seen some of our older ones there is a Playlist on our channel page. RV Cooking & Healthy RV Recipes: th-cam.com/play/PLdJBTbJVb0R06RRQvK9FZHDZi0FNm124-.html

Not sure if you have given any thought to doing a coaching video…for a sneak peak at your fitness business.
Hey, Sandi. That is a good idea! A sneak peak should be on our to-do list. Thanks for the suggestion - Chris
Great video; Can’t wait to get up that way. Keep up the great work. Stay safe.
Thanks! Definitely recommend Northern WI/MN. Safe travels!
My gosh, when was this? Hoodies? It is that cold? I would love that here in the south.
It was in June and a bit stormy weather. Really nice actually with 60's overnight and high 70's during the day!
What kind of bikes are you riding and what rack are you using to carry those heavy bikes ?
Those are Rad Rover E bikes and a Hollywood E bike rack. Yeah they do weigh about 75lbs each!
Thanks. I have two rovers also and need a strong rack for travel. Have @@IreneIronTravels
Laughing with you at the process of picking a camp site! 😂
Great video guys! Looking forward to when you move into your camper & RV RECIPES!! 🌮🥪🍔🌭🏕
Thanks guys! We're ready for the new camper as well. Maybe another month or two!
You guys are making it work, keep on trucking!
Thanks! 💪
You two are amazing….but I can’t wait until you get your new rig 😉….take care!
Would you like to test propane refill hose with on off valve ?
If you go on a weekend here in GA, you would never find an open campsite anywhere near water since covid.
Thank you for sharing this interesting video with me and sharing your adventures of what to do.

Thanks Larry! BS&BK 😊

Since you guys surely must pass by Aldi’s stores along your journeys, check out their “Zero Net Carb” bread - 45 calories a slice, 9g of carbs, 9g of fiber, $3.99 a loaf. We’ve made this a part of our everyday diet since we started a low-carb/high-fiber eating lifestyle about a year ago.
Sounds like you should buy a can of Water Proof spray for your Tent 🧐
Use a knife and butterfly open the hash brown bag and rest your cooking utensils on the inside parts that touched your food.
Voting for young raccoons, old enough now to be out "playing", hassling, or competing for food, etc. They make that screech/screaming sound. Fun to see the more primitive campsite & set-up. Thanks!
Hahaha new Filipino subscriber guys!
That pizza looks soooo good
Not sure if it is what you heard, but we have coyotes in our neighborhood and they can make noises like an animal being tortured which sounds similar to what you heard.
We have heard coyotes out in the desert before and it didn't sound like them. Although, the first time we heard coyotes it was pretty crazy sounding!! So far others have suggested bobcats and foxes.....
Great videos guys n hows the truck on fuel ⛽️
Thanks! So far the diesel is getting around 20 mpg on the highway and about 16.5 mpg in the city pretty consistently. Looking forward to see what happens when we tow. Hoping for 16mpg! 😁
@@IreneIronTravels how is it overall
It's good 👍 we like it. No problems so far but we only have about 3000 miles on it and haven't got a chance to take It off road much. That will change in next up coming weeks as we get out and boondock more. Still getting used to everything, but we do wish we had the 360 camera system. Would just help alot in tight situations. The truck is pretty tall and is hard to see over the nose when you get close to things.
Nice setup...
What month were you there?
June!
Bath in the lake!
Great campsite guys. Love these videos.
When are you going to get your trailer. If I remember right it is soon.
Hopefully in about a month! I did call them and they are on schedule starting the model line at the end of this month!
@@IreneIronTravels yay. So excited for you. I am sure that is what is keeping your spirits high. Good job.
Chris....we gotta work on your pronunciation of Montreal when you get up here to Canada !
I know 🙊 Help!!!!
@@IreneIronTravels Haha. You can do it !!
Thanks again great video.
Thanks for watching!!
😂By “we” you mean “she” is so indecisive 😂
🤣
Could it be a child Sasquatch killing its prey for a late night dinner?
Instead of sitting in truck during rain. Some type of tarp set up would be nice and simple
Potato is least "good" for you when you eat it plain. The added "calories" that butter/oil give to the potato actually slows down the sugar rush the plain potato will give you. The sugar rush that carbs give you is what causes most ill health issues in the standard American diet.
Yes, a bit of fat is definitely a good thing! I just like to warn people from free-pouring oil to keep it in check :) -Chris
"Don't steal kids" - yeah, that's called kidnapping. ;)

What is the brand of tent you are using and model? Will it fit on top of a Subaru Outback?
Ours is the CVT mt shasta standard fly. All roof tents mount pretty universally on cross bars on your roof rack. I have seen tents on outbacks before!
@@IreneIronTravels thanks for the information.
@@IreneIronTravels one more question? Did you mount it or have mounted?
We mounted it ourselves. It was pretty easy with 2 or more people and as long as your car has the crossbars that the rack sits on. If you go back a few videos on our channel we show the tent and a little bit on the rack.

This one i think
You need a portable outdoor shower- just wear bathing suit a stand on a mat.
Camping is about getting away from healthy eating and working out. Besides, camping in itself is a workout. Just be lazy and enjoy the outdoors like camping is supposed to be.
With you tube and channels like you, who needs cable TV?
😊 Thanks Peter!
kind of pricey at $30/night.
One Word...TARP
