I’ve been trying to convince my wife to do full time RVing, finally had her convinced then two years ago I had open heart surgery, so we put that on hold. Then a year ago I was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer, again plans on hold. Surgery, hormone therapy, and 7 weeks of Radiation. Now recovering from Radiation still hopeful. If I don’t get to go your videos keep me going, really enjoy you two. Reminder to everyone, don’t put your dreams on hold, live everyday like it’s your last!
David, wishing you a complete recovery, and hopefully will be able to begin your travels soon! Take care.
Time take time, David...even if it's for a weekend! Your fun, joy will be a medicine and your memories will be priceless!
Ok I will play the bad guy
What would have happened if all this you had done and dealt with living full time in a rv remember its a rv
Who besides you would have to everything related to the daily things. WE moved to Arizona in a house yes we have a travel trailer and so many places to enjoy between 65 and a few hundred miles away but we have a home base .
@David malo sorry for our delayed response. Your comment brought tears to our eyes. We are so very sorry to hear about your health issues. We will keep you in our prayers and positive thoughts for healing so that you and your wife can do the things you want to do. 🧡🙏🏻
You will get your dream; because you want it so much. Push forward...
Please don’t stop bringing joy to this platform.🌷The two of you are such inspiration.😊
Some of your best editing! I laughed multiple times. Oh and I'm with Michelle...cake donuts are underrated. My fave too
I’ve been watching your channel and always enjoyed your videos. My wife however wasn’t really interested. So I started watching the videos on our main tv, with my wife looking at her phone. I started to notice that she was starting to put the phone down and watching along with me all the beautiful places that you both visit. Now, she even knows about Michelle’s “sweet tooth “! Thank you both for taking us along and showing us just how beautiful our country really is. We live in Southern California and let’s just say things have really changed for the worst here. I have a disability and my wife still works, and we have a senior dog who we won’t leave with anyone. So you, Brian and Michelle are our eyes and ears of our beautiful country. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your journey.
Oh Hector, thank you so much for those kind words! 🧡 It truly fills our hearts to hear how much you both enjoy these videos. People like yourselves are the reason why we do them and keeps us going. We hope we will have the pleasure of meeting you both some day. 😊🤓
You've really perfected the art of bringing people along on your travels, to the extent you feel like you're there! Nice!
🧡😊🤓
Brian, I very much enjoy your animated faces. I enjoy the way you share your truths of RV living! Keep the wonderful content coming 🖖🏻😘👍🏻🙏🏻
Thank yall so much. I’ve recently been diagnosed with seizures, this of course has changed up all plans for the future. So I will sit here in my little home and live vicariously thru you. I love pie, burgers and food in general. The videos and photos are wonderful. Keep posting, you have no idea how many folks you’re helping. Love and stay safe.
We’re so very sorry to learn about your diagnosis…but don’t let that take over your spirit and thoughts. Keep your faith strong and the dreams alive.
It is people just like yourself that keeps us moving forward and makes us feel like we are serving a purpose: Thank you and we truly hope to meet you someday soon. Prayers and stay safe. 🧡😊🤓
Video editing gold @ 12:08 - LOL - you guys are so much fun to "travel" with
I rarely comment on videos, but could not resist here. We have followed y’all since you had the motor home. Your videos just keep getting better and better. The content and the videography is superb. Thank you for sharing! Keep them coming!
Thank you so much for those kind words!! 🧡
Loved, loved this video! I miss the road so much! Hubs and I visited Wall Drug about 7 years ago when we were full-time. I sure do miss the freedom. For now I'll live it vicariously through you two! Thanks for the fantastic content! 🥰
Beautiful footage! Thanks for taking us along!😎
We weren’t impressed with that part of the country either. Once was enough for us. Glad you enjoyed spending time with family! 💜
Hi Michelle and Brian.
That is the pie place I told you about at the Hershey RV show. Good luck and safe travels.
You two make me laugh 😂
Mission accomplished 😬🤓
Very good video, you guys humor is always great. Beautiful scenery. Thanks 😊
Love your music choices
So enjoyed this video. Beautiful scenery and your lightheartedness puts a smile on my face. God bless and have a super week!
Really appreciate how slowly you move the camera. It helps keep more of the scenery in clear focus, but more importantly is that it helps poeple with motion sickness or vertigo.
OBTW - Dave's grandma made a rhubarb meringue pie with for resh rhubarb from their garden.
You two are a mess! 😂😂. He act just like my late husband….he always made faces behind my back. At 77 you guys are giving itchy feet to travel. Blessings and Safe travels. 🤗
I’m just smarter, I make them too, “off camera”. 😂🤓
Still the best RV travel couple on TH-cam!
🧡😊🤓
We were in the Badlands as a family 25 years ago. I can't believe that Crazy Horse monument is not done yet. It was started then, but not open because they were working on it. Such a disservice to Crazy Horse. That just floors me. But I have always loved South Dakota. It is beautiful. I'm in Florida now but lived in Colorado for my adult life. Thanks for letting me see it again!
I love you guys! Such a great relationship ❤
Trying to keep her motivated and the peace. Smart husband!
Great video this week! Brian, the faces you make are priceless! I don't know how Michelle keeps a straight face on camera when you do those! Oh wait...she must be used to them lol.
Have a safe week you guys!
What a hilarious video. I enjoy your humor so much. Michele, I always chuckle on your intro when you go zooooming past Brian on your bike. Thank you for sharing your lives and adventures with us. The time you take, to do all that you do, is very appreciated.
Great video. We loved camping in South Dakota. We were too new to camping to know about dispersed camping in the Badlands area. So many beautiful places to see in that area. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hey guys. Just wanted to reach out to y’all and let you know how much my wife and I enjoy your videos. We just retired and are ready to hit the road soon. Please consider following our channel as we follow yours. Safe travels!
Great to see you today at Canyon Village General Store, in Yellowstone. Thanks for making your videos and it was great to meet both of you. Thanks again. Greg Poston
It was so nice meeting you & getting to chat for a bit!! 🧡😊🤓
Rhonda and I were just there in May. We love South Dakota, especially the Rapid City area. We became SD residents while we were there. Here’s a little tip we didn’t realize until we went to register our vehicles. You must register your vehicles in the county your SD address is in! Our address is in Sioux Falls, we were in Rapid City. If we would have known that important piece of information ahead of time we would have gotten our address at America’s Mailbox. We were still able to complete the process, but we had to FedEx all our paperwork to Your Best Address in Sioux Falls and they had to complete the registration’s for us. Great video!! Keep ‘em coming!! 😊👏👏
Right. And America’s Mailbox helps you get all these things in order. It’s where we have had our mailing address for almost 4 years now.
How wonderful I just absolutely love you guy's 😍
Thank you for sharing
The editing just gets better ! We hope to be streaming soon, if the bank out west will ever get our tag to us (paperwork since 2/7/2022) You were surrounded by Airstreams on the Wall....thank you for taking us along ~ hugs from Charleston SC
Wow I’ve traveled all over the world but so much of America I haven’t seen! I can’t wait to visit that area it looks amazing!
This was fun to watch. I drove through South Dakota in 1992. Wall Drug wasn't as touristy. And the cold water was needed! The Crazy Horse monument has come a long way since I saw it. South Dakota is one of the prettiest states in the US. Thank you for bringing back some very fond memories for me.
Wonderful video. It was so special at the beginning watching Michelle hug her mom. We are headed to spend time with family. South Dakota looks awesome. Thank you for taking us along and bringing us into your lives. ❤️
I’m surprised you didn’t stop at the Dignity Earth and Sky sculpture as you were traveling I90. Stopped last year on my way home from SD. Very interesting stop. Drove out (didn’t camp) to the boondock spot,OMG so beautiful. I loved SD. And the peach pie at Purple Pie, delish!,
I know, we thought about it and just kept going. 😂 Leaves is something for next time though. Thanks for sharing.
You two are a joy to watch! You always give us a laugh. We not only got a kick out of the “butt” clip, but also watching Michelle shield her eyes standing in front of the storefront statue doing the same pose behind her.😆👍🏼😎
We’re so happy you enjoy the videos. Bringing laughs and happiness to others is what it truly is all about and is a gift back to us that really fills our hearts. Thanks you. 🧡
You’re the second person that has mentioned that. Neither, Michelle or I even realized that scene, even while I was editing, it went right past me. 😂
Brian always cracks me up. Great videos ! Love the places you go.
Thank you for taking me along
Good Saturday morning! Such a great video! I can’t believe we went to SD and didn’t stop at Wall Drugs! Brian, you are hilarious! I am more like Michelle. I am surprised she picked a doughnut over pie, but that doughnut looked yummy! Great music choices! Thanks for showing us around Wall Drugs...it was really cool! Please, don’t get too close to the edge...the wind might blow you right off!!!😳 Beautiful sunset!!! Wow! You ‘bout had some visitors close up!! My kids and I first read about the Crazy Horse statue in 1992. I’m so glad you got to see it! In ‘92, there was no hole under his arm, just a solid piece of rock. I hope you are going to see the Dignity Statue as well...she’s gorgeous...and HUGE! Thanks for letting us tag along! See you next week!❤️🙏🏻from SC, Jane
What a great video of a beautiful state.
Great episode you two. Music was really nice. Looking forward to getting up there someday. Ya’ll have a great week!
Love this...!
You guys are amazing!
Men are from Mars...and women from Another Galaxy!
🙂
Love Culvers
Wow, Wall Drug has really been commercialized since I was there in 1969. Thanks for sharing! Love traveling with you two.
Love all your videos so glad I found your channel
🧡
Wow, what a flood of memories that video brought back. Wall drug was an okay stop, we had to do it because we kept seeing signs for it and we had to say we had been there lol. We were like you, the food at wall drug was just okay, nothing special. Custer state park is awesome, tons of wildlife, and my husband absolutely loved crazy horse (well I did too lol). Those donkeys are so tame, but they kept sticking their entire heads in our truck lol! I really enjoyed the video…. So many great memories 😁👍
I met the rancher where Crazy horse is laid to rest. About 60 miles away from monument. Interesting trip. Thank you.
We were at the WALL for 2 nights. We turned left past the towers and we’re up on the bluff. You could see our trailer from the Badlands NP overlook. That was cool. Enjoy. We can recommend the Mammoth Dig at Hot Springs. It’s indoors (big) and very interesting 62+ skeletons.
That sounds interesting! We’ll have to try and go there next time.
Yes, The Mammoth Site was very interesting. Great advice.
Great video. I actually burst out laughing at the humor. Just my type. Thanks for with for fans today!,
For us , Wall Drug is the western version of South of the Border at the NC SC border affectionately referred to as “tourist fly paper”….just something that must be experienced. But boondocking at the Wall…. We Loved it!!
I read an article about South Dakota where it said if there was mountains they would just in the way of the view. :)
My mother and I went to the Crazy Horse monument around 1964. All you could make out was the nose as I remember. I would love to go back now.
Love how Michelle ignores you 🤣 That is married life 🤣🤣 Safe Travels guy's 💙
Ive ALWAYS like watching you 2!!!! You freakin CRACK ME UP!!!!! & why don't you give your hubby a bite girl?!!!! LOVES/HUGS to you BOTH!!!! Saved this video on our Places to go file THANKS!!!!!
He eats gluten free & can't eat donuts. I feel for you Brian as I am gluten free too!
HaHa! We are LOL watching this episode. Amanda and I are exactly the same. I'm always ready to go, and she is...not so much. Waiting...waiting... hilarious! Beautiful scenery you got. We watched this morning all together on the TV. Miss you both!
We miss y’all too!! 🧡
I figured a lot of creative work goes into making your videos so high quality. Thanks again folks and safe travles.
There is but it is our pleasure and brings us extreme joy to know others enjoy and appreciate them. 🧡😊🤓
Nice video safe travels.
You got me at South Dakota because it is so beautiful! I really enjoyed this video tour with wildlife, green trees, and ominous views. Parts of it were so beautiful it actually gave me chills. The van life certainly gave way to experiences that would have been difficult if not impossible pulling a trailer. OK, I'm all in for the van life now. It seems that you may have lost a precious loved one. I hope the sadness is soon replaced by sweet memories of the past that live on. 🙏🤗. Here's to the pie in the sky and on the road to adventures.
So glad you enjoyed it! South Dakota is a beautiful state.
We were visiting my Dad’s gravesite before leaving. He passed away in 2017. Miss him everyday but I know he watches over us. 🤓🧡
I don’t have an Rv but I really enjoy watching your videos thank you for making me laugh!
Amazing
Such a great video! I just love Saturdays when your videos come out.
SD has been on our bucket list for a while now and this video makes me want to travel there even more! Good job! I want to boondock overlooking that canyon also. One day! Thanks for the smiles!
Yep, agree - Wall Drug is nothing but a huge tourist trap. But someplace to visit just once. Been there, done that, don't need to go back.
We are moving forward with our full-time plans.
☑️ House Sold
☑️ Sold most of our crap
☑️ Tow vehicle bought
◻️ camper bought
◻️ leave our jobs
◻️ hit the road!
See you out there in 2024 (maybe 2023)
🛻💨
Congratulations!!
Beautiful scenery. Thanks
As usual, great video! Thanks guys!
Love you videos 😊. Safe travels
Great looking van!!
Thanks!
Awesome video..
SD is such a vibrant state!!
Been to western SD...your videoes are awesome-love the music, too!
But any camera, no matter how expensive, just can't capture the beauty of that state!!
Really a great video
Finally a video
Great video!
We stopped off of Wall’s driving back from Seattle to Pennsylvania a few years ago… I agree you do have to have the “experience “ once 😉
Excited to see you guys in a Class B and enjoying the journey. We are enjoying our Class B travels also. Very much enjoy your videos. Thank you.
What an awesome place to camp, amazing views. Glad y'all are back on the road and looking forward to more of your adventures.
Love the pictures and video...
Loving this video!🥰. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Great job guys! As usual really liked the scenery and great music!
Ret to go again! Has to be one of your more comical videos. We rode a motorcycle thru the bison herd at the park, had to wait for them to cross the road. Hope you enjoy the Dakotas. 😎🤓🥸
Beautiful views! And the pastries!🍩🥧👍🏻
What a great video and beautiful scenery!! This is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you for all you do!! Safe travels.
We love your videos. You do such a professional job. The music is fantastic too
I love this video, is at my bucket list badlands
Fun video guys! What a beautiful overnight spot with the wildlife.
How cool was it to watch today’s video. Last September, we did the reverse of your trip through SD. You stayed at one our most favorite boondocking sites and even more cool is that you two parked at the same spot we did over looking the Badlands. Such a beautiful view to wake up to. Thanks for sharing your journey.
So glad you got to enjoy that beautiful spot & view also!
Hi guys. Be safe.
Loved your video! We’ve been to Mt Rushmore several times! We love that area!
We made this exact trip exactly one year ago, love Mt. Rushmore, my favorite place in 🇺🇸. Try to see it at night too.
Makes me want to visit South Dakota again. Thanks for the great video ;)
The sights in SD are pretty, pretty good!
Fun to watch from your perspective. We are traveling a similar route but since it's our 1st time here, we spent a full week in the Black Hills. Beautiful country. Leaving tomorrow for Wyoming. Safe travels and see you next week.
Always have enjoyed your content but now that you are traveling in the Class B I'm even more intrigued. Looking to purchase one now that we are two years from retirement. We are more travelers than long term campers. Sometimes I travel solo. Love that you are genuine and show the reality of traveling.
So well done! Love the music, love your editing, love the way you shared so much information about the area. My wife and I traveled through there in 2019, its all so beautiful.
Hi Brian and Michelle, enjoyed the video. I am from Montana and went to Wall Drug once when I was a young lad and once last year. We were there off season, but it was still busy. We had a nice meal and bought a few souvenirs. I liked seeing you enjoy it too. We saw Punxsutawney Phil and Phyllis yesterday, so you can probably figure out where we are! Hershey for a month next week. Keep enjoying the Gresch:-)
Hi guys, i asked my son where he wanted to go after graduation from High School. I said Disney World and he said no Yellowstone !! I said oh cool !! so we also took in Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Badlands, Wall Drugs and Cody WY. it was a great 10 days. Even 4 of us in a Toyota Prius ... KEEP the VIDEOS COMING !!!!!
That’s awesome! 🧡😊🤓
love the grapes!
😂 🤣
Another great video! We hope to get out there one of these days! Safe travels.
We hope you do get out there. That area ranks up there as one of our favs!
Thanks for another fun and interesting video. We were talking about how your videos just keep getting better and better. All of it, the video, the music, your commentary, great job on your editing. Continued safe travels guys!!! We're getting ready to finally hit the road again. Time to make some memories!!!
Thanks so much! We’re sooo glad to hear you’re going to be out traveling again! Hope we get to meet up again sometime soon, we miss you! Safe travels!! 🧡
