I have spent a lot of time on the Blue Ridge Parkway on my motorcycles. I especially enjoy the section that runs from Asheville to Cherokee but all of it is nice. I tell people that I feel closer to God while I'm on my motorcycle on the parkway than I ever have in church. People who have seen me ride say they can understand why!
OMG what color pop. Also great musical selections.
It was gorgeous! Thanks. Music is always the hardest part.
Wow! You were near us! Wish we could've caught up with you and said "Hi!" Stay safe! ❤🙂Jane
Hello, I was in Boone exactly a year ago, TRULY AMAZING N BEAUTIFUL PLACE!
I’m from North Carolina and the Boone, Blowing Rock and Banner Elk area’s are my wife’s and my favorite places to visit. We travel there 3 or 4 times every year! I hope you enjoyed North Carolina!!
So glad to be first by the looks of it. Love the fall colours. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦
Hey there!
Years ago, we played Blue Ridge Overture in high school marching band. It was a long and arduous journey from 2nd trombone to 1st😥🤣.
Haha maybe to emphasize the long drive?
Beautiful Views Liz. Thank you for sharing your videos. CUL...
Jake and Vernice Minnesota
What a beautiful area! We really enjoyed your video! Well done!
Just to add, this was a great episode Liz and Dennis. I’m not sure I’d do the hiking as one I’m too old, and two, not sure I’d like those heights. 😳 But otherwise what a fantastic area of your country. I’m really enjoying seeing the USA through your travels and adventures, there’s so many awesome places I would never have realized were there. Thanks as always for sharing, Peace and Calm. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦
Beautiful video. Thank you for taking us on the scooter.
Thanks for coming along
Those were some awesome views, especially of the animals at the end. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed the blue ridge parkway vlog!
Thanks for traveling with us! - Dennis
What an awesome hike! Going down ladders is always much harder mentally for me.
I get that!
Great video of my favorite place on earth!!!
Wow! Small world. Not sure when you filmed this but we were at Julian Price campground on the 21st of October in our Leisure Travel Van Unity FX and were lucky enough to get Site 1a on the lower loop on a first come basis when someone canceled. Note on future stays there is decent wifi down at the Marina on the lake where they rent Kayaks, although our WIFI Ranger Everest would not pick it up so we had to walk down there and sit on the dock. Like you, we did the skyline drive the week before in Virgina and NOTHING was changing. Headed down to Ashville after Boone to meet some friends for the weekend and there was NOTHING. Finally got lucky the last week in October in the Smoky Mountains before giving up on a very strange foliage season and heading home to Dallas for Halloween. Took our LTV through dragons tail in the Smoky's. That was a blast! You should try it in that Scooter.
Absolutely beautiful! Wow..no way could I have done those ladder climbs. Thanks for another wonderful adventure. Stay safe!❤
Oh yeah, these were the best fall colors we have ever seen!
The ladders were challenging but so worth the views of Grandfather mountain.
Thank you for traveling with us! - Dennis
Good evening from Godley Texas, superb photographing of the landscape. I can look at the tree foliage for hours. Reminds me of days gone by. I'm glad to see you both enjoying the hiking and mountain climbing. Thanks for allowing us into your lives. Stay safe.😎
So glad it brought back memories for you. Thanks for watching!
Another gorgeous video! I want to let you know that Some of us notice that you always include information about the peoples native to every area you visit. I appreciate the fact that you do that research. Stunning views. I wish I wasn't afraid of heights.
Before the tourists came, she was there. We, I an outlander, she a native of the Smokies, courted there before the big roads came and when the Smokies were almost inaccessible. Those trees are endless, deep, dark and truly wild. Do not go off trail in the Smokies. It is shocking to realize that this is not a casual afternoon drive. Try to image what this would have been like if you were a student in a tiny k12 school and all activities were miles and miles away over endlessly curving two lane roads. The parkway is a vision of what was then. I found her there, loved her for 60+ years. Those mountains were the things we saw every day.
This is beautiful Rob. Thank you for sharing, I love hearing stories like yours!
I daydream of what it must have been like to be in the times that you discribe. Unfortunately for me I grew up through the 90's long after the wild was developed away in central florida. This is a weight I feel every time we find a beautiful place with even a foggy vision of what used to be (why couldn't it have stayed that way). Cherish and revisit those wonderful memories every chance you get because you are far more fortunate than I to have lived them and not have to image. - D
PS Keep telling us youngsters your stories about the beautiful times.
Very nice! The fall colors are one of the most beautiful on this EARTH. I’ve been to Blowing Rock years ago. Beautiful views
Beautiful 👍 Welcome to N.C.
That hike with the vertical ladders was crazy! Dont think so fo for me. One of my favorite areas of NC. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.💖🙏✌
l love yours videos when you came to Mexico l live in Huatulco Mexico
Beautiful countryside!!!👠🚌👠
We agree 💯%
Thanks for traveling with us! - Dennis
Glad you did the hike and filmed it. Only way I could see those beautiful views! Thank you!!!!
I recognized the dump station before you even said where you were on the BRP! LOL! :D
Haha! That's how you know your a veteran RVer
@@EatSeeRV I know that area of the BRP like the back of my hand. ;)
I live in Linville Falls so I drive the parkway practically everyday when weather permits. If it’s closed I’ll take 221 which runs pretty close to the parkway. You need to ride the Alpine Wilderness Roller Coaster in Banner Elk.
Dang, we didn't know about the roller coaster! Next time. - Dennis
Awsome! To me the Blue Ridge Parkway and Zion are two of my favorite National Park Units! Thanks for sharing!
Can we have the recipe for the curried egg salad?? Sounds delicious and definitely would be great on a hike day!
Super easy just hardboiled eggs, curry spices, paprika, salt, and mayo of choice. We love primal kitchen avocado Mayo. Sometimes I'll add chopped pistachios and green onions if you have it! Enjoy 😊
Awesome scenery, cool hike, adding the animal habitat to my bucket list.
Great video. Loved Grandfather Mountain. That looked difficult with the latter climbing up and then down then the low rock. I always say low bridge whenever we go under something like that. That was cute seeing the bear abs eagles and otter and a cougar. When I see a cougar I think of two things Disney used to show on tv wild animals like that and # 2 Ford used cell Mercury and they’re commercial was with a cougar and they said Ford Mercury sound of the cat. Beautiful scenery and nice fall colors. Hope you have a great night and week and travel safe. See you soon!
From a Lifelong North Carolina boy this was a well done video. You showed everyone what a beautiful state we have. Keep it up
Thanks Nat, we love receiving comments like this for locals! - Dennis 🤩
It is always a wonder to see how beautiful the changing of the leaves can be during Autumn. So how when I am raking the leaves from my yard, I always seem to miss this.
My daughter goes to Appalachian State University in Boone and so we have spent a lot of time hiking around there together. You guys did justice to the area and I will recommend this video to many of my friends here in Raleigh. Good job!
Beautiful! We did the entire drive on a vacation from work before retirement and RVing. It was a real challenge to look at that twisty turny road and figure out how many miles we could do per day and what we had time to visit. We were blessed to have picked the peak color week too. Great memories. Thanks for sharing.
We were in Asheville a few weeks ago and were amazed at how many cars & people were there for the fall colors. That Grandfather hike looked pretty crazy! You got to hear the elk! Others are super cute - we saw a couple in the McCloud River in CA and we saw a cougar in a campground in CA too - a bit frightening actually.
I could spend every day hanging out with you Liz! Love your energy. Haha to be young again and have a body that cooperates. Thanks for sharing your travels 😀
So cool! Thanks again for doing the stuff we can't do physically...allows us to enjoy these views! Oh...and did you know that cougars PURR? Yup, they are technically part of the small cat family so they can purr. I got to visit a sanctuary like the one you did several years back as an "insider" and got very close to a cougar and was startled when she started to purr...that's when I found out that, just like house cats, cougars purr when they like you! LOL! Glad you had such a great time there and got to see so much of Fall, even with the rain.
Soooo glad you finally got the leaf color you were so wanting!! We LOVE that general area. I think we could settle there when we finish with our wanderlust, but Dave thinks FL is where we'll be. Such beautiful videography! You guys are really rocking it!! Dave and Lorrie
We'd love to be in the mountains but also want something in FL. However we're not required to choose haha at least not yet.
Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video! 🙏🤗
We just finished watching your latest video! Welcome to our “backyard!” We are in Winston Salem, NC and w/n 90 minutes of Grandfather. We love all the area surrounding the mountain! There are many, many wineries and venues of interest throughout the area. You represented us very well. Thank you!
Stunning! Spent this fall in Vermont and Maine but the Parkway is definitely on my list. I was there last year but leaves hadn’t turned yet. (I was there buying my very first motorhome, in Asheville. 😊)
I want to go to skyline drive next week. Hopefully there are some leaves left on trees.
Hi Liz and Dennis! The scenery there is gorgeous. Love those colors. Thanks for taking us along.
So glad you enjoyed this weeks vlog Dolly! This was by far the best fall color we've ever seen.
Thanks for traveling with us! - Dennis
You promised color and color you delivered. Wow, that was AWESOME! Thank you. I am glad I didn't have to physically take that hike though. Phew! Looking down was scary enough from here. Again a pearl. Thanks for my relaxing breaks from daily chores and mundane moments. 🙏 🇳🇱 🙋♀ 🇳🇿
So glad you enjoyed it Oma!
Thanks for traveling and "leaf peeping" with us! - Dennis
Thanks!
Awesome video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for traveling with us! - Dennis
Great video
Wow BEAUTIFUL video! We LOVE Boone and Grandfather Mtn. We have been since we’ve been RVing. This video just reminded us how much we loved going there pre RV days. So might just stop there on our way to Gettysburg for the Holidays. 😀.
Yay enjoy! Glad it could be a happy reminder.
I absolutely love this! I've lived in Boone my whole life, but rarely do all the things that you did because it is so busy with tourists, so it was awesome to see y'alls videography:)) Did you know that there is a 5 mile race to the top of Grandfather Mountain called "The Bear" ? It's really challenging, but so gorgeous and amazing.
Trash can trivia….Great Smokey Mountains is the most visited national park in the US. Even though it is pretty much in our back yard, we have never driven the BRP from Shenandoah to the Smokey Mountains.
I can only imagine how fun doing the whole drive would be. We've only done parts of it.
@@EatSeeRV Yeap, it is on our bucket list. We would like to start at Shenandoah in Front Royal. Drive Skyline Drive (SNP) to the Blue Ridge Parkway to the Great Smokey Mountains. Of course camping, hiking, and exploring along the way. Thought you guys had driven the entire BRP. 😜
Wow, you all sure did time that perfectly! It is a beautiful area, but I haven’t ever been in fall. I always watch your videos with Google Maps at hand to add suggestions. I agree, otters are among the cutest animals. 😍
I think we got really lucky with this fall color experience 🎯
We do the same with gmaps. Just a bunch of pins everywhere! lol - Dennis
The video was over way too soon. Love this area.
Fantastic job (on this video) as always guys!
We just got back from a camping trip to Boone yesterday.
Awesome area!
Glad you enjoyed this weeks travel vlog!
Where did y'all stay while you were Boone? - Dennis
@@EatSeeRV.... Flintlock Campground. Small sites but we had a campsite that backed up to a creek that runs through the campground!
Great Video. thank You. We are taking our Travel Trailer there is fall. What week were you there when all of the colors were so brilliant. Nice camera footage also. Did you shoot all of the scenes on your phone camera???? Thank You
Great video. Thanks for sharing it 😊
Thank you for tuning in ! We appreciate you watching it
Love your video! What date was it?
Your music made me think of the movie "The Last of the Mohicans".
Interesting. Which song or part?
@@EatSeeRV the 15:00 and on part. Reminds me of several songs of "The Last of the Mohicans" soundtrack. I think they shot the movie in NC.
Bellos lugares🇺🇸
Si! Preciosa
Great video, amazing editing and scene selection. Question, can you drive and RV on the Blue Ridge Parkway? Also concerned about the heights of the tunel. . We are 11 ft. Thanks.
Depends on how long of a RV and your personal comfort/confidence/experience driving on 2 lane mountain roads.
There may be a maximum length restriction but I don't know what it would be.
This link will provide you the tunnel clearances along the parkway. 👇

Hi guys! Love your adventures. We are looking into getting another RV. Wondering if that brand is for winter camping and the name of it? We think it's really cute. Does it have automatic leveling?
Beautiful scenery!! 😀
Thanks Anna! You can tour our home on wheels here th-cam.com/video/fK4xSzD_RZA/w-d-xo.html she's ten years old so no automatic leveling. But she's a beaut!
Not sure how to leave a Super Thanks...???
What trail did u do on grandfather trails?
We shared the name of the trail in the video. You can also find it on all trails 🙂
What week were you there?
We were there Oct 22 - 28.
All the locals were saying this was a really slow year for the change.
So I think we got really lucky! - Dennis
Hola Eat See RV no fui el primer comentario¡¡ >:3 , ¿que hay de nuevo? :3, que tengo que hacer para que me apoyes? :3,
please do not bring more people into our small mountain town of boone. It is already getting far too big from the university and we simple do not have the space for all the tourists/ students. Practically running the people and there families who have been here for generations out of there homes.
Thankfully as US citizens, we can travel freely throughout the country, that right has not been taken away yet.
