    I'm the double V guy in the truck! So happy I could put a smile on your face for once.
    I ran into Chrome a little later & hit him up for a chat. What a "freakin" nice guy.
    Thanks for all the awesome videos and what a treat to see Rupert through your lens.

    Using a empty laundry bottle for a pee jug is smart. You will never accidentally drink from it and it is pre scented.

    I'm renting a campervan for 8 days to travel throughout New England next month and my last full day in the van I plan to visit as many light houses as I can between Bar Harbor Maine and Portsmouth NH.
    Can't wait.
    I had planned to stay in hotels for this trip but I started watching this channel last winter and Chrome was my inspiration to book the van back in March instead.

      You will love it! Avoid the interstate as much as possible!
      Stay on or near route 1, for main N-S travel, but take all the little side roads for sure=;^)
      See if Happy Clam Shack is open on the way - yummm.

    Another OMG! I visited Lucy Island around 1973 when there was a family living there. We ended up staying overnight when a storm blew in. There were 13 of us for dinner that night - the population more than doubled. Communication then was by CB radio. The teens were doing homeschooling 25 years before it became a thing. Thank you for taking me back to some wonderful memories.

    What an incredible video. The residents are so kind, generous, and welcoming. You must feel like family after experiences like these.
    One of the many things that I have always appreciated about your videos over the years Chrome is your innate ability to show us your followers/ Club Double V Crew how truly impressive each town and the residents are.
    It makes us want to go there and experience it all for ourselves.
    You are truly in a lot of ways the Ambassador to the Island and its charms.
    Watch out, I hear that Prince Rupert and Dawson City both have designs on you and Cruzie moving to their town!! 😊
    Years and years go by and your content keeps getting better and better. Impressive!
    Doesn’t Club Double V Road Crew sound like a great t shirt ?

      Second breakfast on the “wet coast” is very common, don’t know why but you have a much bigger appetite for some reason, and no weight gain either. Probably cause there’s so much more exercise, walking etc, and the climate is much cooler on the cloudy days

    Same style laundry jug I use in my van. I add some thinned out bleach to it before I use it. Doesn't take a lot to work. Two liter jug with 350ml of bleach or 2 quart jug with a 1-1/2 cups of bleach and fill it with water. Small amount added to the bottle before I use it and empty it after using it for as long as 24 hours without any problems. No dangerous gas problems in 60 years of doing it.
