I just recently purchased a home here in El Paso. Fort Bliss is really nice and it has all the comforts of home. The commissary is really nice and if you enjoy German foods check out their deli. Have a great time at Fort Bliss.
Hi Pegi and Don! Thanks for the tour of Ft. Bliss. Brought back memories from when I was there for basic training back in 1987 right after graduating from high school in 1986. Things have definitely changed there no doubt. I need to visit there soon so my daughter can see where it all started when I was in the US Army. Take care!
Heyyyyyyyy yall! Yeah you for the tour; it's its own city within a city. You'll want for nothing if you decided to remain through the winter. Those mountains... Amen. They truly humble you. Don, will you look under the rocks to see why grass doesn't grow? I want it! I am here for it! Esthetically beautiful and LOW maintenance... save on water too. Oh and that serenity garden... every home should have one. Thanks for the adventure! Until next time... Grace and Mercy.
Hey Family. Looks really nice. It has all the comforts of home and I love Auntie Annie's pretzels. As soon as I saw the Dollar Store Pegi I knew you were like yeah, my kind of place. I love the scenery , the mountains. You guys are going to enjoy your stay there. Thanks for sharing so that I can enjoy it too. Oooh, look ar the Japanese Garden! Beautiful.
OMG you took me down memory lane. My dad was station there in the 60s. It has really changed. I saw the house we stayed in. If you had kept straight you would have passed it. The Red Brick district. Thanks for the memory.
Your music alone is ... sweet! I finally realized I had not clicked the bell and that was why I was always a day late viewing! Woo Hoo... (I am claiming old age, 70! LOL)
As a former El Pasoan, and Fort Bliss Post Security Officer, there is no such thing as Enlisted/NCO/Officer housing now, they removed the name and rank from the homes and have interblended it as part of the new quality of life standard. They also closed the Enlisted, NCO and Officer Clubs on Fort Bliss as part of that new Quality of life thing as they felt it bread division and hostility toward the ranks. Love that they cleaned up that Japanese Garden. I always liked Fort Bliss, they have really done a lot in recent years to give the soldiers and their families entertainment options and a better quality of life. Thanks for your service and the walk about.
Great video! I haven't been to El Paso for a few years...things have REALLY changed. I noticed all of the solar panels on the enlisted housing. VERY IMPRESSIVE. Thanks for including us in your adventures. Be safe, stay well.🙂
Greetings Fam! Freedom Crossing was under construction when my Son was stationed there and deployed to Iraq where he was wounded. I drove back and forth from East Texas a couple of times when he was in and out of the hospital there. Great to see the “finished product” of all the “under construction”. Many interesting things to see and visit in the surrounding areas. EXCEPT Juarez. Wouldn’t recommend that at all. 👀. Use an abundance of caution if you are anywhere south of the Interstate. Enjoy
Hello Pegi and Don. Prayers for great health and safe travels. Vegas sounds good but you do know it’s in the desert but freezes at night. Take a ride on down to Southern California. Hope to see y’all.
Wow thats beautiful couple years ago was on a trip with my sister . My husband to me to cheak that place out but I didn't. The next time I sure will . It's gorgeous!!!
Hi Pegi and Don. Thanks for the video. I could spend all day there shopping and eating. The "husbands day care" sign was funny. I assume it was a cigar lounge? Peace and blessings.
Hello Pegi & The Don🙋🏾♀️. Pray you’re ok Pegi!!! You don’t seem to be feeling your best today. Don I was right there in the serenity garden with that music!!! Soooo peaceful. Thank you’ll for sharing. Be blessed
Thanks for showing off your new homestay. Really nice. Hope the movie was really good. Pegi are you doing ok. You seem out of sorts or just tired from the long drive. Please take care. Love the tranquility garden. Just beautiful.
Stay safe and please keep our daughter in your prayers. Grandbabies are better but our daughter is struggling. Our prayers are always with you 2. Y'all mean a lot to us and have brought so much joy to our lives. May God Bless and keep y'all safe at all times.💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
Nice tour of Fort Bliss, enjoyed the garden. Always good to see y'all. I hope everything is okay, something seems off. Pegi is not talking as much and has been kind of ghost on the last two videos, and you Don seem a little tense. If I'm wrong please forgive me, nothing but love. ✌
Awesome video Fam, the garden was really nice. Pegi Dollar Tree is like Walmart have to visit one everywhere I go, may see something different is my motto lol...
Hey fam I lived there for 3 years working for the VA. It’s a diamond in the rough. I had so much fun. I love it there. A popular food is Chico’s Taco. You have to try them. I always tell them not a lot of juice unless you want them soggy.
I was sent TDY to Bliss from Benning in April 1981 to drive General Officers to various locations during Borderstar 1981, a joint forces exercise similar to Reforger in Germany. I was a PFC at the time and my MOS was 44B (Metalworker/Welder). I still don’t know how I got selected for it, but it a great detail. I’d pick the generals up at the El Paso airport and take them to the General Officers guest quarters (very nice!!) so they could change into their fatigues (OD Green at the time). From there, I’d take them to various locations on post (helipads or drive them to White Sands or McGregor Range across the border in New Mexico). I stopped by the PX once and saw the reserved parking spot for General of the Army Omar Bradley. Of course, he was retired then. He passed away around the time I left and returned to Benning. He had lived there for many years after he retired. Anyway, the post has changed a lot since 1981 when I was there. It looks great!! I’ve never seen so many civilian restaurants on one installation. The new enlisted quarters look great too!! I retired as an E7 in 2000 with 20 and a day or two. I’d promised my wife 16 years earlier that I’d go with 20. After Drill Sergeant, Recruiting, and Instructor assignments, I was ready. I’m glad I left when I did. Can’t look back! Forever Forward!!
Pegi, I understand how you feel riding with the Don. I was wondering if he was going to stop at the stop sign. He scared me just watching him drive....LOL
Oh, I really liked the movie! In fact, I thought the first hour or so was the best Marvel movie ever. Then came that overdone, unrealistic ending, but I still give it 4.2/5 stars.
Not to stir anything up (LOL), but how are the 5th wheel camper and new truck plans coming along? I think both of you will be a lot happier with the change, especially if this is your long-term planned lifestyle.
FYI, El Paso is a HUGE military supporter. You can get military discounts off base, however the gas prices is the same on and off base-- no big discount there .
Question: (or questions) Do you have to b a vet to stay in those trailer pks? Are mobile home the same to live in as a regular home would b? Are they less expensive to buy and maintain? Love the vids and places.
Just stumbled upon this video. The last time I was at Fort Bliss was in 1964 (when i was born). Going back sometime this year. Can't wait!!
You all have the best music in your videos! The husband day care was hysterical!
A train ride through the mountains sounds like a big adventure. Enjoy and Godspeed.
Thanks for the tour. Bliss is beautiful! Enjoy your stay and safe travel to the next one.
Great video thank you for sharing with us Happy Holiday guys .love ya'll it's nice and clean.
Don. From one Vet to another. Thank you for your service 👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Your music alone is ... sweet! I finally realized I had not clicked the bell and that was why I was always a day late viewing! Woo Hoo... (I am claiming old age, 70! LOL)
Great video guys! Assuming you’re heading to Arizona. Be safe we’ll be thinking of you.

That is a good idea Pegi.
How sweet Don.
For some reason i never have your videos on my feed, i have to go looking for them every time 🤷♀️
Welcome to El Paso! Hope you enjoy your stay. Safe Travels. Peg you can see how far we are from a Cruise Ship. 🤣
Loved this video!!

Beautiful place
FYI, there is a hotel on base. It is really near the exchange. Close to Haan rd
Hi fam. Enjoy your stay at Fort Bliss & stay safe 😃
Pegi, I understand how you feel riding with the Don. I was wondering if he was going to stop at the stop sign. He scared me just watching him drive....LOL
Love Peggy and Don 💓
I love the Dollar Store to.
Sir Donald!! Loved the review of Fort Bliss and the serenity garden. But, where is your review/thoughts on the movie?🤔🤔🤔
Oh, I really liked the movie! In fact, I thought the first hour or so was the best Marvel movie ever. Then came that overdone, unrealistic ending, but I still give it 4.2/5 stars.
Wow, it have been years since I been there it look different.
Texas Roadhouse mmm mmm good!
You know it 😜!
You are such a cute couple.
That was a nice serenity park
Bliss doesn't look like it did when I was there. Home of the ADA.
Not to stir anything up (LOL), but how are the 5th wheel camper and new truck plans coming along? I think both of you will be a lot happier with the change, especially if this is your long-term planned lifestyle.
Our plan is for the end of October, God willing 🙏. But we will start the search later this month.

When I saw we had a smash burger I was so hyped
