- This is the continuation of our stormy tubing ride down the Rainbow River, and as luck would have it, we're saved by a famous radio star! Finally we’re able to get off of the Rainbow River, hang up our tubes, and pull up in our van at our nice campsite at the Rainbow Springs State Park campground. After all the danger, we have a pizza dinner made by the fire! This is definitely a crazy experience we will never forget and we’re happy to share it with you. Thanks for watching!

That was really nice of him letting you stay on his porch. What a small world to run into a famous person in your time of need. Rainbow River is so much fun! Every camping trip we did this summer, we experienced rain. We were in a tent through 🤦♀️
I know! We were so surprised. At first we were thinking, is he really a famous radio personality? And then when we looked him up we were so surprised! Ugh the rain is crazy sometimes. We still have to get a better tent after ours leaked so bad when we were in The Keys. It's nice to listen and enjoy the rain but not when it's raining inside on you! 😂
@@PSAdventures we have one of those 3 room tents. We have used it twice and both times it rained inside the tent. I get the feeling there are no waterproof tents that are affordable lol.
Y’all are exactly on camera as y’all are off camera!! It was a pleasure meeting y’all tonight!! Can’t wait to see the adventure!! Cheers!! Maybe we can meet up again one day!!
It was so great to meet you in person, Jerrod! We appreciate your invite to join you around the campfire. That was a great night. And thank so much for the awesome comment! For TH-camrs, that's one of the nicest compliments you can give!
@@PSAdventures can’t wait to cross paths with y’all again one day!!!!😃
Always bring paddles on a river run in Florida. Early in the morning while you're paddling through the massive spider webs you can also hear the roar of the alligators. Great fun.
Those would have been so helpful! We felt like we were at the mercy of the river. I can only imagine it we had run into spider webs on top of seeing alligators and lightning. Oh man! Thanks for watching Mari! 😊
Y'all are cute...thanks for sharing your bad luck adventure! Informative enough for me and entertaining to boot
Aww, thank you!! ❤️ It's always an adventure! 😅
Rainbow river park is awesome.. we've been at least 4 times, but one time was floating the 4hr!!!! from KP hole behind the Winn Dixie. It poured rain on us for about 20mins then cleared up nicely. I shed some time off by getting off the tube with fins and became a human boat motor because 4hrs is a lonnnnng time. Had a good relaxing time anyways. Thanks again for another video, looking forward to seeing the next one. Have a great weekend 😎👍🏼
Wow! Four hours sounds like a long time on a tube! I can see why you brought the fins. Great idea! Although I think Sarah would freak out a little bit with the alligators around. Haha! Thanks so much for watching and all the kind words! 💓
Gary deserves a whole truck of ginger ale, cheers from Switzerland, the country of the fermentated lactated beverage called Rivella.
Woohoo! Great to hear from you! He absolutely deserves that and a huge round of applause! It was absolute kindness to let us take refuge from the storm. ❤️
All I heard was "Gary" and "you were on the radio in Cincinnati" and I knew it had to be Gary Burbank. I listened to him for years in the afternoon on the drive home from work. You should Google him, he was a wonderfully talented and funny radio personality. A beloved Cincinnati staple for decades. Glad I found your channel. edit: Aaaaand of course I write my comment before finishing the video. Ha!
😆 We do the same thing when we're watching videos. Haha! We were so surprised to have met Gary! It was so cool to meet someone like that in person who had been on radio for so long. What a great guy!
Can’t wait for the next video lol
Just wanted to say your content and quality gets better with each video. Keep up the great work guys. 🎉😊 Thanks for the entertainment. We love you guys!
Thank you SO MUCH Stephanie! You put a smile on Sarah's face since she's the magic behind all of the editing of our videos. We try to keep getting better and better but also show how it really is in the moment. Thank you for the love! 💓
Love the RR. We are lucky enough to have friends who live on it. We can do an nice one hour float. If we don't stop at the rope swing...
😮 We must have missed the rope swing! That would have been an awesome find. We'll keep a lookout for it the next time we get over there. Definitely lucky to have friends that live on it! It's a beautiful river!
I’ve been on that river when it was literally wall to wall people- nice yo have it to yourself. I remember Earl Pitts! He was a hoot!
Guess no one else wanted to ride out the storm with us! 😂 Pretty cool to have met Mr. Earl Pitts! He was so sweet to let us wait out the storm. 💗
This video was awesome except for you all getting caught in the storms but what kind of chance to be invited in by a great person such as Gary! Hope you all had a great conversation while waiting out the lightning.
It was an amazing adventure overall. If it wasn't for the storm, we wouldn't have met Gary! 💕
Omg that’s my families old property!!!! That big rock has been a lifesaver MANY TIMES for me!!! Good job Gary I’ve not met you but surely appreciate your kindness Caroline rabe ❤
Wow! What a coincidence!! 😮 It was a great spot right along the Rainbow River that really saved us. Gary was such a cool guy. We couldn't believe we ran into him like that. You must have some great memories there! ✨
That's so cool you got to meet someone famous! A fresh/frozen pizza on the grill is amazing so I'm sure one over the fire is as well. Too bad Mother Nature had other plans. That crust though! Wow! Glad you finally got off the slowest moving river in the world. Lol. Have to try everything at least once, right? Can't wait for part 3!
😂 I think Sarah couldn't wait to get off of that river after the lightning started. She was trying to paddle a little faster. The pizza turned out so much better than we ever thought and I think it turns out even better than in a regular oven! Once we got on the paddleboard the next day we finally got better weather along with some cool wildlife. Thanks so much for watching Carolyn! 😊
Hooray! A new PS Adventure! (:
tbh floating doesn't look all that great to me! (;
The campsite looked great! The food looked delicious too!
Doesn't have much current.
Haha! Yeah not too much to floating down the river, but it was definitely more interesting with the storm! 😮 Always happy to hear from you Freeman!
There really wasn't much of a current. It was actually pretty peaceful minus the storm. I can see how it could be relaxing. So slow!
So glad you guys got to a safe place. Florida weather is predictably unpredictable sometimes. 😮 Looks like you made the most of it. Beautiful float. New sub. Looking forward to the SUP adventure.
After the first few booms of thunder we were starting to get a little worried and after that lightning bolt hit, we were out of there! 😮 We'd definitely choose SUPs over floats any day! It's nice to be able to control where you're going. Thanks so much for watching!
Anyway back to the video you guys are amazing keep doing what you do
We're so happy you enjoyed it Kerry and hope we always give you a fun way to armchair travel with us. Thanks always for watching!
Love seeing the vids you two put out. I check every day for a new one and often rewatch older vids. Eventually gonna start putting my own stuff out on TH-cam but I'm not even close to being as personable as you are 😆 Love your adventures! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for the kind words Sly Fox! We try to put them out as often as we can. It's definitely harder than it looks with filming and editing and trying to capture how it really felt in the moment. We also try to stay positive too and have fun. Hehe. Thanks so much for watching and good luck if you do start a channel! It can be fun!
Wow, that was cool you meet Gary... I'm from OH about 30 minutes north of Cincinnati and very familiar with WLW. Just never know who your gonna meet out there. Love your videos and the nature you show. Places I never heard of and now I'm like "hey we should check it out" to my husband. Currently living in PA so quite far away. Maybe be planning a vacation soon 😉
Thank you so much for sharing Melissa! 💓 We figured someone out there knew who Gary is with how popular he was on the radio. We're so happy you're loving our videos! We'd love to get up to PA sometime to explore. We hiked a tiny bit on the Appalachian Trail there. It was beautiful!
Keep up the great videos, and yes you guys are getting a little famous too.....
Haha! We're way far away from famous. 😂 Just two people who love to travel and explore. Thanks so much for the love on our videos and glad you're enjoying them! 💓
Gary RIP I loved you brother and I love you for being my friend and you you're wife and Joy and Dave 💞. Sorry I didn't listen to you all. God Bless you 🙏 all.
We just had to look this up to see if Gary had passed away but we didn't see any news. Did you mean someone else? Thanks for the comment!
Hey guys just wanted to say I was waiting for this next video I had to stop the video cuz I'm laughing because the look on Sarah's face when the lightning strike and she said not good I'm dying LOL
😂 Oh I know! She was not happy and to know that we were basically stuck on the river. We're so thankful that Gary let us stay on his porch!
FREEZER ITEMS RECYCLING: You actually can not recycle them due to there being a coating on them so they can without being in the freezer section.
Oh! We hadn't thought of that. Thanks for the info! 😊 All of our recycling starts piling up and we feel bad just throwing it away. 🤷♀️
Being a control freak I don't think floating would be for me.
Can you take a kayak on the river?
Beautiful area.
We understand what you mean! With floating, you kinda have to just let it all go and just, well, float. We'd prefer kayaking or paddling as well! You can put in your own vessel from the state park and there's also a park nearby that rents them. In case you missed it, this was our adventure when we put in our own paddle from the state park: th-cam.com/video/HTO8g4DvMU4/w-d-xo.html
Love your page. You two really seem to have fun. How do you get drone flight permissions in the State and National Parks? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks for the love Mark! On the drone question, you can't fly drones in National Parks. It's not worth the risk so definitely don't do that. National Forests are a little more of a grey area depending on if they're managed by the US Forest Service or the National Park system. For state parks we actually don't fly them from the park. Every state is also different so you'll have to check their rules. Also we have a Part 107 license since we're filming for commercial purposes. It's a great idea to get your Part 107 license and worth all of the things you'll learn when you get that. We love Pilot Institute for the course. I hope that helps!
*** FL Girl FLOAT TIP.... when you need or want to go faster and you're in an inner tube, just get inside the hole and kick your feet.... ***
Haha! 😂 I think we were a little wary of all the alligators we were seeing not too far away. 🐊 That would definitely have gotten us back a lot faster though! Thanks for the suggestion!
You met earl pitts he is my hero
It was so exciting to have met him! We may not have known who he was while we were there, but we had a great time learning more about him afterwards. He lived a pretty cool life!
Mmmmmm...puzza!!!
😂🍕 We didn't know how it was going to turn out in a pan over the butane burner but we were so surprised! Good stuff! 🤤
Earl Pitts!
Yes! We couldn't believe it! We didn't actually know the character but after looking it up it was such a cool experience to meet such a cool radio personality! 😮
Hi guys you, you guys are amazing together great chemistry, awesome
My wife an I we are trying to get a van like yours do u have the model name of yours we want to get the same and the year. Thank u in advance cheers
Wow! Thank you so much for the love Leonel! ❤️ That's exciting that you guys are looking around for vans. When we were looking we knew we wanted a Ford Transit. Ours is a 2016 Ford Transit Long wheel base with a high roof. 🚐 There's three lengths: Short, Long, and Extended so we have the middle one. There's also three roof heights: short, mid, and high roof which we have the high roof. It's a gasoline engine that doesn't have AWD. When we had originally looked at ordering a van we were planned on geting the extended version with AWD but then found our van that was already built. With that said, it might help a lot to go to RVShare.com and rent a van similar to what you want to make sure you like the way it feels. You can also test drive others like the Ram Promaster or Mercedes Sprinter on dealer lots to make sure. We hope that helps! Let us know if you get one! 🎉🎉🎉
If the box is greasy, cheesy and has stuck on food bits, it shouldn't go in the recycling bin
Thanks for your suggestion! It's a little sad to hear how much stuff really doesn't even get recycled at all. We hope at least some of it does but probably the best thing is not creating so much trash in the first place. It'd be nice if more packaging was made from compostable materials! 🙂
Yeah it's no fun to get caught on the water in florida during a thunderstorm.. I'm Originally from Florida and just an FYI Florida is the lightning capital of the US there's more lightning strikes in Florida than anywhere else...
Florida lightning storms are so cool... from inside!! 😂 And those storms appear out of nowhere sometimes, too. We think we'll be sticking to our paddle board from now on so that we have more control over where we're going and how quickly we can get there.
@@PSAdventures I can tell by the video you guys are pretty much over it and I don't blame you... a 3 hours going down a river and it doesn't.have any current on the tube is no fun... Trust me I feel your pain!!! Because I've been on a 43 mile 2 day Canoe trip I had a drag to Canoe at least 6 miles of the trip... But you make the best of it!!! 😉 . I agree with you watching a lightning storm or a thunderstorm from a distancen in Florida is awesome,!!! I remember as a kid in Miami florida when I was growing up watching thunderstorms form 10 inthe ocean from the beach and the lightning was so awesome!!! I wish you guys the best and just remember that everyday is blessing and just stay positive no matter what in any situation... God less 👍😉✌️
Hi! Absolutely! We love life and always try to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us. ❤️
Use paper products in your fire
Definitely! Usually to start the fire we'll use junk mail we get to start it and cardboard from Amazon boxes. It works! 🔥
Who is the camera man?
😂 It's actually both of us. We try to get unique shots with our action camera and different mounts to make it feel a little more like you're there. We take turns filming here and pass the camera back and forth.
Northerners😢
I'm not sure who you're referring to, but I guess most of Florida is a melting pot of people.
I’m heading there soon. Thanks for sharing. 🔥🆙 @trevdevadventures.
We hope you enjoy the beautiful water! It's some of the clearest we've ever seen. Thanks for watching! 😊
