    I can't tell you how great it is to see you back on this channel. I think it's cool to see you in the smaller rig again. What's even cooler is that you have options. You have your bigger bus, a smaller bus, vans, etc. You've worked really hard for all of it. I do hope you find the time to do more vlogging on the channel. I kinda miss the old days. 🙂 Oh, and where can I buy a T-shirt?

      Thanks, I hope all is well with you and thanks for stopping by! The THT shirt I had on was a test print but I'm considering making some custom off grid skoolie shirts :-)
      Also, I will be posting vlogs on Friday and Podcasts on Sunday.

    You were probably one of the first people to get me interested in TH-cam channels and cut the cable. I enjoyed watching your trips to Alaska. I appreciate you committing to weekly posts. Thanks for bringing us along!

    Thanks for the update.
    It’s good to see you out camping.
    We downsized a couple of years ago, and it’s the best camping decision we’ve ever made.

    Great video bud! Just remember that even though you are downsizing a bit, it is still a lot better than the dorms back in the day. Stay safe bud!!

    Hey Chris good to see you. Looks like you've come full circle with the rigs. We adapt. Biggies are great if you have land to leave them on. Finding a decent rig that's mechanically sound can be made nice but not cost a fortune to travel or go get supplies. Easier to park, pretty fun less stress...woo hoo...

    Hey Chris! Coach Trainor from way back. Awesome to find you are still out and about traveling. This life has become something I am working toward within the next year or so. Just the Dog and I. Enjoy my friend.

    Is this the bus that Alex (Alex&Alro) was in a while ago? It looks familiar. Love the smaller rig -- feels cozier.

    I’m really happy to see you out camping again.
    Looking forward to future episodes.
    We also just moved down from a 23’ travel trailer with a slide-out section to a 17’ Casita.
    We’re looking forward to hitting the road in a rig we can camp almost anywhere.
    Good Vibrations

    Lol, she does have a point with the van! :) Roughly the same size, but I get it haha. Still really like your build. I bet your weight capacity is a heck of a lot more than the van though. Been a long time man, but some day we gotta meet up. I know I talked to you about that like ...6 years ago? now, but eventually. Have fun out there! - Shane

    Miss Zep2. I can understand, kinda y u switched but I would’ve kept Zep2 around just so my lady and I could b together. Just sayin’. Good to c u again.
    Btw, what’s happening with Z2? Do u still have her? (I wrote this before u answered the question about Z2)
    Gotta say love Charles Kern. If I were to get a bus done up I’d have him build it. Does he have a YT channel?
