Hi, I had the pleasure of meeting you two at the Safeway in Port Angeles, WA. I am the clerk who checked you out. Your videos are very inspiring. Too bad about the smoke here. Praying for everything that is in harm's way from the fires. Hope you were able to go to Hurricane Ridge and the west coast of the Olympic National Park, and be out of the smoke. Best wishes.💗
This is by far one of the best videos you have created to date and the reason being is vulnerability. When you show all sides (or most) of you rather than striving for perfection, you both shine and are much more relatable. Thank you for this video and sharing which I'm grateful for. Another day vertical, breathing and feeling, grateful for and the love of family, friends and pets (so very grateful for). Love you both xo
I am grateful for my dearest friends escaping the Oregon fires in Chiloquin, I am grateful for clear sky's in our mountain town today so I can breathe clean air! And I am grateful for being God's child knowing even in these hard and difficult days, He gives peace of mind and heart! Stay safe you two! Thankyou for being more genuine and vulnerable in your video. It is refreshing to hear that you both are not perfect. Much more relatable. 👍❤️🙏
Today I am grateful for: 1. The ability to work from home. 2. The last few days of beautiful warm weather before autumn/snow arrives. (Canadian here) 3. Seeing my cats first thing in the morning, excited for me to wake up and give them cuddles. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us all. I really love watching your videos weekly, and a lot of the advice you share really helps to put life into perspective. Stay safe & enjoy the rest of your week!
grateful for you taking the time to share your gratitude and love with us ❤️ and ohhh, how I miss kitty morning meows and snuggles, they're the sweetest in the mornings 😽
This has to be your best to date! 😍 We loved the overarching story along with all the little stories about you two! We are so grateful for each other, for our health, and the freedom and possibilities awaiting us to come!
Guys- I’m thankful for your sweet love of GOD and all the nature and goodness HE created. More importantly- I am grateful for cuties like you who are proud of HIS goodness and display it on this platform. Thanks for being genuine AND adventurous. NOTHING like a husband and wife who pray together! Rock on ya lil badasses!
Grateful for my wife of 38 years today! Grateful for family, including our 8 grandchildren. Grateful for this beautiful world that we have to enjoy, explore, and care for.
So nice! 3 things I’m grateful for today are: 1. You sharing your love and light which is a reminder to stay positive. 2. My son staying safe during this time even though he is far away from me ( in Europe) 3. I have remained employed during the pandemic when the economic environment is uncertain so that I can continue to save an plan for travel.
I’m grateful for the crisp Colorado air, how my relationship with my sister and brother has gotten even stronger this past year, and for the snuggles of my 13 year old pup. Also, I am from Florida too, and totally understand about not seeing snow until later in life!
I am grateful for Rob's health (he is still fighting problems from being on so many antibiotics from health problems, but is on the road to recovery)... grateful for our baby due December 3rd... and grateful for the life God has given us every day 🥰 Stay safe friends. We're in SoCal and the air quality is horrible, but we are starting our new adventure in just a few days and will be headed towards Pennsylvania in our Ford E350 van front/cab-over RV ❤
I’m thankful for my husband and adventure partner, I’m thankful for my 3 children and I’m very thankful for the National parks and being able to share them with you!!!!
I am greatful for having two lovely kids, for the loads of good friends and my wonderful teachers. I really enjoyed the vlog, you are so lucky to have Drew as your husband, he put up a brave face as you returned but held your hand in such a grasp that he would not let you go alone anywhere again. Stay blessed , both of you ❤
Hi kids.....Recliner Babe and her Handsome Prince here.......although part one was a "cliffhanger".....and required a nap from us both....this one almost brought on a panic attack. By underplaying it , you made it even more suspenseful. Glad you are back in your handsome prince's arms.....safe and sound. Someone mentioned in their comments that you should visit Mt. Olympic National Park. I have to say....it would fit in with your N.P. adventures. Please consider it...it is very different from those you have visited in your series. This is the best time to go.....before our early fall sets in. We, too have visited the Great Northwest's National Parks....all majestic...all beautiful....but there is a prehistoric rainforest environment that is quite different from the others. We have never forgotten its uniqueness. Just thinking...."while you are in the neighborhood"! Our 3 gratitudes? Just cant do it....so greatful just to be here....together ....right now...this minute. You'll understand when you're over 80. Love and wildflowers for you both.
Congrats Brittany, you rock that hike !!! I'm grateful for today: My son, My family, My walk through the parks in the morning. Bonus : grateful that your sharing your adventures. Ty
A BIG YES to the children’s’ book, or series of books. One for each park? Canadian here, and never been to any in the USA. This series of videos are some of your best! Thank you both for offering such positive vibes, and messages, always.
Today I'm grateful for my son, my partner and this lovely video at the end of a long day. In NYC, planning back to school is no easy feat this year but trying hard to keep a positive attitude and take one step at a time. Your gentle reminders to do the same are always right on time.
Gratitude 3 Things: 1) my private practice as a psychotherapist, which means my job did not disappear when COVID hit (just switch to all online), 2) The house I live in, which by our American standards, is pretty mediocre, but in the larger historical context of humankind, no matter how humble of a house, we all live like kings & queens in America, evidenced by the fact we are also all powerful magicians that can think of anything we want and it appears on our doorstep in 2 days (Prime), and 3) the opportunities I have had to find inner spiritual healing as well as healing of old, childhood trauma. I have been so blessed, to NOT HAVE TO HAVE GONE down some of the roads, in life, that I was headed down due to childhood trauma, and was able to turn that around and serve the light !! Aho ! Adonai ! Amen !
I am very grateful for my garden (first time this year), for love and for our incredible planet. Gratitude is so important, thanks for reminding us to make space for it in our hearts
I am grateful for a roof over our heads, food to sustain us and the people we share our lives with. Great video! Loved the flowers that are growing there and all your energy
Crazy! I’ve lived in Washington my whole life sand never visited our national parks. You are doing a great job showing their beauties and definitely make me want to go now! I’m thankful for: my family, my job and learning how to work through mental health struggles. 🤍
Brittany, seeing you do something that is obviously out of your comfort zone is so inspiring. I just started hiking three years ago and have found it challenging to find a hiking partner for all the hikes I want to do. If you can do a solo hike I feel I can do it too. Here's to doing something that scares us yet makes us stronger.
Totally agree about gratitude. It's amazing what it can do daily for your mind, spirit and heart. Can definitely turn a sour day, into something so much more fruitful and peaceful. I am super grateful today (and everyday) for my family (boyfriend, our dog and cat, my mom, dad, brother) and for shelter, and health.
There should be a sharing of your videos, post cards, etc, with nursing homes and assisted living centers. Many can't get out and enjoy the parks and it's great to see your adventures and smiles.
Just one. The joy you bring to us in each personal journey shared I can share with those housebound and see the smiles on their faces while watching you two. Thank you for your patience while showing beautiful nature to us. We love you two.
we (navi and matt) are thankful for each other, for dogs, and for nature!! Also thankful for mindful, inspiring content from you all! (and hammocks) .... 3 is too little. lol
Grateful for my husband who is also my best friend & makes me laugh every day; for my son who is finding his way in the world; and for the beautiful earth that I enjoy exploring.
We are thankful for you two and all you share, we are thankful for positive thoughts, and we are thankful for the healing powers of Mother Nature. And we think the idea of the book is one you should pursue. Happy you are posting such lovely videos.
I use to have a fashion blog and ended each post with several things I was grateful for. I stopped blogging when my sister suddenly passed on 3.5 years ago. I still practice gratitude daily... Today I am grateful that my son works 4 days a week and is coming home tonight to begin my husband’s birthday weekend! I am grateful that my husband is meeting our oldest right now in the middle of his work day to help him get a new dresser. I am grateful I am looking at beautiful flowers my best friend sent me for my birthday two days ago. I am grateful for videos the two of you make that brighten my day!
Three things I am thankful for: This VIDEO-you 2 are so inspiring and I love your positive thoughts (you always seem to add them to your videos at the perfect time), my family and my job! Thank you for sharing your National park videos with us, they are amazing! I am so inspired to get out west now, never traveled there....Please keep these beautiful videos going!
I am thankful for you guys.. I really enjoy your video style and how you make us feel so included.. I am thankful for my 3 fur kids.... I am thankful for the being able to travel on the road also. 🐾🚙❤
Drew, my husband guessed that you were from A2 when you mentioned high school hockey players! That was a great story. Brittany, I also like to confront my fears, I like the idea of thinking of fear and excitement being two sides of the same coin. Usually, I just get to the top of a scary slope, allow myself to cry two tears for my fears, then just go for it. I am so thankful for this time to spend with my kids, my husband and his beautiful heart, and this planet. I wish we could all help each other see that this life is a precious gift that only gets more valuable with every heart we touch.
Glad you both noticed that. I sure miss playing hockey. I played roller hockey on the beach boardwalk in Santa Monica for the past several years and loved it just as much as ice. Life is such a gift and we have to make the most of it 😀
I think your idea of writing children's books about your National Parks adventures would be terrific - I serious I do believe your books would be sellers. Don't wait too long to start on them....MLA
I am grateful for my family, conscious connection to this precious planet we are so privileged to live on, and the ability to serve this planet educating others about her. Thanks folks, love your vlog
Loved this video! Thanks for being vulnerable. Love that God is your rock. Just love all your stories and explanations. Having been through a deep depression and panic attacks I spent literally years taking a mind over mood course. Like you ...now have tools in dealing when feeling overwhelmed. My hubby and I of 43 years pray together daily as well individually. I've kept a gratitude journal for years. Have filled several books with over 2,500 entries. Thankful for my journal, my hubby, and power of prayer.
This was an awesome vlog! I am glad both of you made it safely back to your destination. I am grateful for both of you sharing your life with us! I am grateful to be reminded we are all connected, no matter the distance or circumstances. I am grateful for my grandson who, also, reminds me of all the different ways I can look at life. Ya'll take care!
You two are lovely. Three things I'm grateful for: 1. This pandemic. NOT for all the lives it's taken or for the people who've gotten sick, but because had the pandemic not happened, I would not have gotten laid off work, I wouldn't have had time to watch a bazillion videos and learn about vanlife; I would have been working like a dog 12-18 hours a day, "same ol' same ol'" and wouldn't be spurred on to start a new chapter in my life...that being one of vanlife. I haven't purchased my van yet, income is very unpredictable since I've been laid off AND I want to learn as much as I possibly can before I jump into it. Also, through watching all these YT videos, I've got my favourites (you two included) and even though I've never met you, I feel connected to your positive energy. The #2 thing I'm grateful for, tied into the pandemic, is that the border between USA and Canada (where I am) is closed because it's forcing you (Americans) to experience your gorgeous country and share that with those of us who haven't had the pleasure of visiting those gorgeous places yet (though I WILL, now that you've shared it with us). As someone who's worked in the travel business for 30+ years, I've travelled a lot internationally and domestically, but not nearly enough trans-border....once the border opens, and it's safe to do so, and I have my van converted, I plan on exploring your beautiful western states (the eastern ones don't interest me that much as, from what I've learned so far, they aren't as vanlife-friendly). And the #3 thing I'm grateful for is, well, the usual...my family, my health, and my dog (though, truth be told, those three things are my #1 things). THANK YOU once again for being so wonderful and for sharing your experiences xoxoxo
Oh my gosh!!! Thank you for the shout out! I squealed out loud!!! I’m ready to help you write the children’s book. Western National Parks association or Eastern national parks association are both non profit concessionaires that publish NPS books. Reach out to them!!! I’m so glad Brittany made it safely. I’m sorry about the bad information from the other ranger 😢. You two are amazing! Love your adventures ❤️❤️❤️
I am grateful for our fire teams, volunteers, and first responders. I am grateful that my 2 boys are healthy and happy. I am grateful to be alive another beautiful day in this universe.
Your story gives inspiration to those who are planning to live in rural. We would love to share this with our customers who bought vacant land from us and planning to live away from the city. They will surely get awesome ideas from your videos.
Thanks so much for sharing! We are grateful that you are sharing your travel adventures. We are grateful that we are fellow nomadic travelers! We are grateful that there are amazing places to visit in this country! thanks!
No one else was around!? I get nervous hiking alone. I think of the worst things that could happen. Trying to get over that. Im new and started with small hikes. I did the sleeping bear dune climb hike to Lake Michigan in Glen Harbor Michigan. That was so hard, but worth it. This place you hiked is a goal to get to some day. Mountains, flowers, lakes, waterfalls... yes!
Whoa, Brittany, what a hike! You GO, girl! I am grateful for Wisconsin’s Ice Age Trail, my husband “Mr. Fix Anything,” and for you guys doing such amazing videos that inspire us in SO many ways!❤️
Thank you for making this video. Brittany, I was praying for you and with u every step. You did so well not getting scared, it's builds such caricature and strength xx
What a wonderful video, you two are so great together and bring me peace. Three things I'm grateful for today 1) my loving husband (45 yrs married in Nov) 2) our beautiful daughters and their partners 3) our retirement and health that we worked hard to reach and now enjoy.
that is so so beautiful ❤️ and oh my goodness! Our date-iversary (the day Drew 1st asked me to "go steady") was November 2nd!! 2009 🥰 What a wonderful day to celebrate ❤️
I've had a crappy couple days and watching this gave me a sense of ☮️. Thank you. It's funny how you - Drew - said hurry back to your husband...we got in an argument and I left for drive to clear my head...came home and we talked it out. Thanks for the escape. Love you guys.
Today I am thankful for my husband of 42 years for taking great care of me over a difficult past year, I'm grateful for your inspiring videos that remind me of all this world has to offer and I'm grateful for all my lifelong friends.
Grateful for FAMILY (sisters, brother, cousins, children, grandchildren) in my life today, career that I've loved, exploring and learning (off to my Welding Program course on Tools and Equipment Operations!) By you two! Love ya lots!!! Grateful for your videos!
Three things I am grateful for...This national park series you are doing, being WA is my home state. Brittany made is off the mountain safely (i was worried) and my family.
Loved this video. Loved learning more about you both. I can feel the love That you are both made of. Pure love radiates from you guys. Right through the video. You’re so nice and kind and gracious. I need to be more of these things.
Awesome job by both of you on that adventure! Whoops! Almost forgot. Grateful my daughter is settling in for her first year of university, My dog walked really well (didn't pull) on today's walk and for people like you guys putting sunshine out there in the world.
The lake really lives up to her name. That's how Frankie would be lol just chilling waiting. No trail makes it so much harder. Breathing is so important and you guys are so cute with each other. I HOPE THAT DREAM COMES TRUE.
I live in federal way wa which is super close to my rainier. I go up and hike and camp almost every year! I would never in a million years go on an unmarked trail up there! The weather can change so quickly and the amount of bears and cougars! Please please be safe and stay on marked trails only!!
Daily I document what I’m grateful for...... I also have my granddaughter tell me what she is grateful daily..... Today I’m grateful for my grandkids that enjoy hanging out with their grandma
I’m grateful that I have time and freedom at this juncture in my life. For good health that allows me to explore and the means to do so. Grateful for so much more, but at the present, time is on my side😇 Brittany, I loved the fact that you presented Fear/excitement are chemically the same... is true! I say that to myself all the time at my age, stepping out of my comfort zones. So far, it’s changing and creating more self acceptance 🦋🌻🌈 which is priceless 🌹😇 spouse doesn’t say anything, but has become more appreciative.
We can either choose to feed the fear or the excitement. You know which we choose. 💚 Happy to hear that you own self work and growth is noticed by your other half - Mr A. 😊
That was a wonderful resolution to the cliff-hanger! I would have been terrified to do that all alone. I have wondered why Brittany wasn’t wearing her bear-spray holster? Also, having friends and family in the area, I’m hoping that you are safe from all the fires! No matter what, THANK YOU for taking al of us along with you on your adventures. Just GLORIOUS!
Thank you two times a week this is such a treat 😍 thank you for sharing all the little things about the both of you💕 I really love going on adventures with you the beautiful flowers ,tree and bees 🐝 the love you have for one another so refreshing God bless safe travels☀️🙏🏼
Greetings from a very hot & humid Tallahassee FL. Currently about 93 degrees. Due to living in Panama and now Florida I have only seen a little snow once when visiting Nashville TN for Xmas. I am greatful for many things, wife family friends, but I'm sure greatful for finding your channel.
We both went to school in Gainesville, FL and know exactly what kind of heat you are experiencing. Sending you some cool air from these snowy mountains.
3 things I'm grateful for are my son, my husband and our air purifier. We are in northern California with fires burning all around us. Very grateful for this air purifier right now.
My husband rode his annual Packwood to Paradise (and back) ride on Aug 22. We had great weather and I had a great parallel parking spot with a view from our van!
Love the video and the whole national park series!! I am making notes with every episode and building quite a bucket list. I am grateful for ; my kids, my health and Love💘
Looked like a pretty hike even though it was ruff!!! Naming the videos are so hard for me. 3 things I am thankful for are 1) my husband and best friend. 2) just waking up every day. 3) all my clients I am a realtor.
I'm grateful for looking out at snow @ 30 here in Colorado. For my daughter and 4 G-kids! Healthy and able to do work @ 8k ft - off grid! And enjoy your travels and adventures❣️ ✌️❄️
Sweet Couple, you're very brave Brittney, you were so calm. I think in that situation I would have gone hysterical. Am not good at sense of direction. I would definitely get lost. Amazing Mountain, thank-you for bringing us along. Drew is confident in you Brittney he knew that you would make it back. Hugs to both of you. 😊
So proud of the both of you for taking time for your body and spirit to recharge your souls a good uplifting so proud and thankful for you both positive and healthy loving you both
Hi you two! Three things I’m grateful for: -My husband of 27 years (complete with full-on belly button lint everyday)! -My 2 beautiful adult children -My four-legged babies, 3 cats & one little tiny terrorist terrier. -Mr & Mrs Adventure ....oh. That 4 things. Oh well. The sky in the city (SF) was bright orange yesterday from the fires. 😞 The wildlife is what really hurts my heart. Please continue to stay out of Ca. For now. Recommending everyone stay in doors do to the extremely poor air quality. Thank you for brightening my day you two! I love living vicariously through you! Such beauty! Brittany-so glad you made it home. ✌🏼
Love that your hubby has belly button lint to haha. We had friends send us pics from SF and it's unbelievable to see that orange color in the sky. The morning was really orange up here near Seattle 2 morning ago as well. Thanks for joining us on our adventures.
Hey guys, It's hard to explain in words the feeling after watching this week it just filled me and everyone with happiness. That smile you get from deep down in your core. Balance, moderation, consistency is what we all strive for but generally get stuck with a routine, creatures of habit. For those that suffer from anxiety/Asd like my 2 boys routine is necessary in this world. Hence my van project giving them a different element of life. Thats when I found you guys thankyou for being you. Getting to know and love yourself is part of the problem today not many people stop to know who they are themselves, just to busy. You both have found the path and guide each other. I'm so happy you invited all of us, it's not the words alone it's all the elements together you guys are the nectar of life that join those pieces. I'm so proud and honoured to be apart of your patreon family. Keep talking about patreon the family will grow 😊 Very proud of you both. Toby I'm so happy to be a part of your patreon family.
The finale of this week’s 2-parter is here! Find out what happens to Brittany, if we ever make it to Mother Mountain (spoiler alert 18:56) + a few random facts about ourselves that we sprinkled in here to entertain you further 🥰 3 things you’re grateful for - readyyy, set, GO!

Three things I’m grateful for. 1. My freedom 2. My family 3. My health
I am grateful for the love I experience everyday. For waking another day. For the fantastic video I just watched! ✌❤
Hi, I had the pleasure of meeting you two at the Safeway in Port Angeles, WA. I am the clerk who checked you out. Your videos are very inspiring. Too bad about the smoke here. Praying for everything that is in harm's way from the fires. Hope you were able to go to Hurricane Ridge and the west coast of the Olympic National Park, and be out of the smoke. Best wishes.💗

We love that you like this idea. Thanks for tuning into out videos ❤️
You can tell he was still worried about you, "give me a hug!", so sweet 😍
I'm thankful for having a roof over my head, for the very few and hard to find genuinely nice people, and family
Today I'm grateful for my son, my partner and this lovely video at the end of a long day. In NYC, planning back to school is no easy feat this year but trying hard to keep a positive attitude and take one step at a time. Your gentle reminders to do the same are always right on time.

Grateful for being safe today, good health and that my sis is also doing so much better.
❤️❤️❤️
Crazy! I’ve lived in Washington my whole life sand never visited our national parks. You are doing a great job showing their beauties and definitely make me want to go now!
I’m thankful for: my family, my job and learning how to work through mental health struggles. 🤍
Brittany, seeing you do something that is obviously out of your comfort zone is so inspiring. I just started hiking three years ago and have found it challenging to find a hiking partner for all the hikes I want to do. If you can do a solo hike I feel I can do it too. Here's to doing something that scares us yet makes us stronger.
Totally agree about gratitude. It's amazing what it can do daily for your mind, spirit and heart. Can definitely turn a sour day, into something so much more fruitful and peaceful. I am super grateful today (and everyday) for my family (boyfriend, our dog and cat, my mom, dad, brother) and for shelter, and health.
I'm thankful for being alive after surviving a heart attack, my family and my Church family.
There should be a sharing of your videos, post cards, etc, with nursing homes and assisted living centers. Many can't get out and enjoy the parks and it's great to see your adventures and smiles.
that would be so so wonderful!! Perhaps some do share with their retirement community, we can hope ❤️
Just one. The joy you bring to us in each personal journey shared I can share with those housebound and see the smiles on their faces while watching you two. Thank you for your patience while showing beautiful nature to us. We love you two.
Lots of joy and love back!
we (navi and matt) are thankful for each other, for dogs, and for nature!! Also thankful for mindful, inspiring content from you all! (and hammocks) .... 3 is too little. lol
Grateful for my husband who is also my best friend & makes me laugh every day; for my son who is finding his way in the world; and for the beautiful earth that I enjoy exploring.
We are thankful for you two and all you share, we are thankful for positive thoughts, and we are thankful for the healing powers of Mother Nature. And we think the idea of the book is one you should pursue. Happy you are posting such lovely videos.
Thanks for your input and support on the idea 🙏
I use to have a fashion blog and ended each post with several things I was grateful for. I stopped blogging when my sister suddenly passed on 3.5 years ago. I still practice gratitude daily... Today I am grateful that my son works 4 days a week and is coming home tonight to begin my husband’s birthday weekend! I am grateful that my husband is meeting our oldest right now in the middle of his work day to help him get a new dresser. I am grateful I am looking at beautiful flowers my best friend sent me for my birthday two days ago. I am grateful for videos the two of you make that brighten my day!
Three things I am thankful for: This VIDEO-you 2 are so inspiring and I love your positive thoughts (you always seem to add them to your videos at the perfect time), my family and my job! Thank you for sharing your National park videos with us, they are amazing! I am so inspired to get out west now, never traveled there....Please keep these beautiful videos going!
Grateful for the breath in my lungs, the love in my heart, and all the heartbreak I’ve experienced to be a strong person i am today
Love that!
Mr and Mrs Adventure thank you! love your channel! Really uplifting videos!
Right on time... perfect way to start my day.. Adventure Thursdays are the best...
I am thankful for you guys.. I really enjoy your video style and how you make us feel so included.. I am thankful for my 3 fur kids.... I am thankful for the being able to travel on the road also. 🐾🚙❤
@@TwiztedHippie ❤️❤️❤️
I am grateful that you are able to go on these adventures and I'm able to watch them.
Drew, my husband guessed that you were from A2 when you mentioned high school hockey players! That was a great story.
Brittany, I also like to confront my fears, I like the idea of thinking of fear and excitement being two sides of the same coin. Usually, I just get to the top of a scary slope, allow myself to cry two tears for my fears, then just go for it.
I am so thankful for this time to spend with my kids, my husband and his beautiful heart, and this planet.
I wish we could all help each other see that this life is a precious gift that only gets more valuable with every heart we touch.
Glad you both noticed that. I sure miss playing hockey. I played roller hockey on the beach boardwalk in Santa Monica for the past several years and loved it just as much as ice. Life is such a gift and we have to make the most of it 😀
❤️
I think your idea of writing children's books about your National Parks adventures would be terrific - I serious I do believe your books would be sellers. Don't wait too long to start on them....MLA
Thanks for your encouragement!
I am grateful for my family, conscious connection to this precious planet we are so privileged to live on, and the ability to serve this planet educating others about her. Thanks folks, love your vlog
Beautiful 💚
Loved this video! Thanks for being vulnerable. Love that God is your rock. Just love all your stories and explanations. Having been through a deep depression and panic attacks I spent literally years taking a mind over mood course. Like you ...now have tools in dealing when feeling overwhelmed. My hubby and I of 43 years pray together daily as well individually. I've kept a gratitude journal for years. Have filled several books with over 2,500 entries.
Thankful for my journal, my hubby, and power of prayer.
happy my mother is still with me happy to wake up each day , and happy for coffee ,, :)
I am grateful for the stars, trees, and all the beautiful plants
My husband, kids, family & friends! So I have a lot to be thankful for! Thank you friends! You are awesome! Stay safe! Have fun! Be well!❤👍
Good to see you two still enjoying the mountains..3.5 hours from here..
This was an awesome vlog! I am glad both of you made it safely back to your destination. I am grateful for both of you sharing your life with us! I am grateful to be reminded we are all connected, no matter the distance or circumstances. I am grateful for my grandson who, also, reminds me of all the different ways I can look at life. Ya'll take care!
You two are lovely. Three things I'm grateful for: 1. This pandemic. NOT for all the lives it's taken or for the people who've gotten sick, but because had the pandemic not happened, I would not have gotten laid off work, I wouldn't have had time to watch a bazillion videos and learn about vanlife; I would have been working like a dog 12-18 hours a day, "same ol' same ol'" and wouldn't be spurred on to start a new chapter in my life...that being one of vanlife. I haven't purchased my van yet, income is very unpredictable since I've been laid off AND I want to learn as much as I possibly can before I jump into it. Also, through watching all these YT videos, I've got my favourites (you two included) and even though I've never met you, I feel connected to your positive energy. The #2 thing I'm grateful for, tied into the pandemic, is that the border between USA and Canada (where I am) is closed because it's forcing you (Americans) to experience your gorgeous country and share that with those of us who haven't had the pleasure of visiting those gorgeous places yet (though I WILL, now that you've shared it with us). As someone who's worked in the travel business for 30+ years, I've travelled a lot internationally and domestically, but not nearly enough trans-border....once the border opens, and it's safe to do so, and I have my van converted, I plan on exploring your beautiful western states (the eastern ones don't interest me that much as, from what I've learned so far, they aren't as vanlife-friendly). And the #3 thing I'm grateful for is, well, the usual...my family, my health, and my dog (though, truth be told, those three things are my #1 things). THANK YOU once again for being so wonderful and for sharing your experiences xoxoxo
Oh my gosh!!! Thank you for the shout out! I squealed out loud!!! I’m ready to help you write the children’s book. Western National Parks association or Eastern national parks association are both non profit concessionaires that publish NPS books. Reach out to them!!! I’m so glad Brittany made it safely. I’m sorry about the bad information from the other ranger 😢. You two are amazing! Love your adventures ❤️❤️❤️
I am grateful for our fire teams, volunteers, and first responders. I am grateful that my 2 boys are healthy and happy. I am grateful to be alive another beautiful day in this universe.
Your story gives inspiration to those who are planning to live in rural. We would love to share this with our customers who bought vacant land from us and planning to live away from the city. They will surely get awesome ideas from your videos.
Please do!
Grateful for my dogs, especially my new puppy , my partner and today your video. One of my favourites ever.
Thanks so much for sharing! We are grateful that you are sharing your travel adventures. We are grateful that we are fellow nomadic travelers! We are grateful that there are amazing places to visit in this country! thanks!
No one else was around!? I get nervous hiking alone. I think of the worst things that could happen. Trying to get over that. Im new and started with small hikes. I did the sleeping bear dune climb hike to Lake Michigan in Glen Harbor Michigan. That was so hard, but worth it. This place you hiked is a goal to get to some day. Mountains, flowers, lakes, waterfalls... yes!
Whoa, Brittany, what a hike! You GO, girl! I am grateful for Wisconsin’s Ice Age Trail, my husband “Mr. Fix Anything,” and for you guys doing such amazing videos that inspire us in SO many ways!❤️
Thank you for making this video. Brittany, I was praying for you and with u every step. You did so well not getting scared, it's builds such caricature and strength xx
Thanks for coming on this adventure with us 🤗 xx
What a wonderful video, you two are so great together and bring me peace. Three things I'm grateful for today 1) my loving husband (45 yrs married in Nov) 2) our beautiful daughters and their partners 3) our retirement and health that we worked hard to reach and now enjoy.
that is so so beautiful ❤️ and oh my goodness! Our date-iversary (the day Drew 1st asked me to "go steady") was November 2nd!! 2009 🥰 What a wonderful day to celebrate ❤️
I've had a crappy couple days and watching this gave me a sense of ☮️. Thank you. It's funny how you - Drew - said hurry back to your husband...we got in an argument and I left for drive to clear my head...came home and we talked it out. Thanks for the escape. Love you guys.
Sending you Peace! see you tomorrow for Adventure Thursday 😘
Grateful for my daughter’s smile, my husband’s humor, and my mom’s love.
Today I am thankful for my husband of 42 years for taking great care of me over a difficult past year, I'm grateful for your inspiring videos that remind me of all this world has to offer and I'm grateful for all my lifelong friends.
Wonderful!
Grateful for FAMILY (sisters, brother, cousins, children, grandchildren) in my life today, career that I've loved, exploring and learning (off to my Welding Program course on Tools and Equipment Operations!) By you two! Love ya lots!!! Grateful for your videos!
I am grateful for creative minds, being able to start a business, and my family. Thanks guys!!
Three things I am grateful for...This national park series you are doing, being WA is my home state. Brittany made is off the mountain safely (i was worried) and my family.
Loved this video. Loved learning more about you both. I can feel the love That you are both made of. Pure love radiates from you guys. Right through the video. You’re so nice and kind and gracious. I need to be more of these things.
Grateful for the two of you, the videos you share with all of us and my family! Your videos are the best, hoping I can experience it one day myself.
Thank you for sharing your lives. What an inspiration you are!
Grateful for my kids, mother earth and her bounty, and at the moment Thursday morning serenity and coffee with Mr. and Mrs. Adventure.
Wonderful! 🤗
Awesome job by both of you on that adventure! Whoops! Almost forgot. Grateful my daughter is settling in for her first year of university, My dog walked really well (didn't pull) on today's walk and for people like you guys putting sunshine out there in the world.
The lake really lives up to her name. That's how Frankie would be lol just chilling waiting. No trail makes it so much harder. Breathing is so important and you guys are so cute with each other. I HOPE THAT DREAM COMES TRUE.
Thanks friends!
The 2 episodes.....really nice job! Totally enjoyed it. Thank you
An Attitude of Gratitude, Everyday.. Every Breath I take, Every Sound I hear, and Every Vision I See..Much Love..
I live in federal way wa which is super close to my rainier. I go up and hike and camp almost every year! I would never in a million years go on an unmarked trail up there! The weather can change so quickly and the amount of bears and cougars! Please please be safe and stay on marked trails only!!
Daily I document what I’m grateful for...... I also have my granddaughter tell me what she is grateful daily..... Today I’m grateful for my grandkids that enjoy hanging out with their grandma
Thats so beautiful you have your granddaughter thinking about what she is grateful for 😊
I’m grateful that I have time and freedom at this juncture in my life. For good health that allows me to explore and the means to do so. Grateful for so much more, but at the present, time is on my side😇
Brittany, I loved the fact that you presented Fear/excitement are chemically the same... is true! I say that to myself all the time at my age, stepping out of my comfort zones. So far, it’s changing and creating more self acceptance 🦋🌻🌈 which is priceless 🌹😇 spouse doesn’t say anything, but has become more appreciative.
We can either choose to feed the fear or the excitement. You know which we choose. 💚 Happy to hear that you own self work and growth is noticed by your other half - Mr A. 😊
That was a wonderful resolution to the cliff-hanger! I would have been terrified to do that all alone. I have wondered why Brittany wasn’t wearing her bear-spray holster?
Also, having friends and family in the area, I’m hoping that you are safe from all the fires!
No matter what, THANK YOU for taking al of us along with you on your adventures. Just GLORIOUS!
Always relaxing to watch u guys! Family, nature, life! Be Excellent to Each other ❤️
Thank you two times a week this is such a treat 😍 thank you for sharing all the little things about the both of you💕
I really love going on adventures with you the beautiful flowers ,tree and bees 🐝 the love you have for one another so refreshing God bless safe travels☀️🙏🏼
Greetings from a very hot & humid Tallahassee FL. Currently about 93 degrees. Due to living in Panama and now Florida I have only seen a little snow once when visiting Nashville TN for Xmas. I am greatful for many things, wife family friends, but I'm sure greatful for finding your channel.
We both went to school in Gainesville, FL and know exactly what kind of heat you are experiencing. Sending you some cool air from these snowy mountains.
3 things I'm grateful for are my son, my husband and our air purifier. We are in northern California with fires burning all around us. Very grateful for this air purifier right now.
Grateful for all the love I've known
Grateful for the love I've got
Grateful for the love I'm going to give ♥️
💞🕊️🕊️🕊️💞

That hit me, thank you
Yay, two videos this week! Your videos always put a smile on my face😊 Have an awesome week Mrs. and Mr. Adventure.
You too!
I'm grateful for my mom, nature and music!
Grateful for that reminder🙏

My husband rode his annual Packwood to Paradise (and back) ride on Aug 22. We had great weather and I had a great parallel parking spot with a view from our van!
Hi guys, The both of you are wonderful! ! I am grateful for my mother, spouse and for being here ! 😊✌️✌
Love the video and the whole national park series!! I am making notes with every episode and building quite a bucket list. I am grateful for ; my kids, my health and Love💘
Looked like a pretty hike even though it was ruff!!! Naming the videos are so hard for me. 3 things I am thankful for are 1) my husband and best friend. 2) just waking up every day. 3) all my clients I am a realtor.
I'm grateful for looking out at snow @ 30 here in Colorado. For my daughter and 4 G-kids! Healthy and able to do work @ 8k ft - off grid! And enjoy your travels and adventures❣️ ✌️❄️

1. My Health

Much love back to you in Wales! We loved exploring the canals and river boats NW of Cardiff when we were there in our UK van.. xx
Sweet Couple, you're very brave Brittney, you were so calm. I think in that situation I would have gone hysterical. Am not good at sense of direction. I would definitely get lost. Amazing Mountain, thank-you for bringing us along. Drew is confident in you Brittney he knew that you would make it back. Hugs to both of you. 😊
I'm grateful for friends, love, and food on the table xx
😊 xx
So proud of the both of you for taking time for your body and spirit to recharge your souls a good uplifting so proud and thankful for you both positive and healthy loving you both
Grateful for living vicariously through your videos (thank you), my four kiddos, my job that I can wfh!
Love Mt Rainier! So beautiful and would love to go back some day!
Maybe the title could be
“Brittany Perseveres!”
Thank you both for sharing your vulnerability, and your love for God. Blessed to be able to relate!
Great episode. Grateful for my family, the great outdoors and my job.
Hi you two!
Three things I’m grateful for:
-My husband of 27 years (complete with full-on belly button lint everyday)!
-My 2 beautiful adult children
-My four-legged babies, 3 cats & one little tiny terrorist terrier.
-Mr & Mrs Adventure
....oh. That 4 things. Oh well.
The sky in the city (SF) was bright orange yesterday from the fires. 😞 The wildlife is what really hurts my heart. Please continue to stay out of Ca. For now. Recommending everyone stay in doors do to the extremely poor air quality.
Thank you for brightening my day you two! I love living vicariously through you! Such beauty!
Brittany-so glad you made it home. ✌🏼
Love that your hubby has belly button lint to haha.
We had friends send us pics from SF and it's unbelievable to see that orange color in the sky. The morning was really orange up here near Seattle 2 morning ago as well. Thanks for joining us on our adventures.
Mr and Mrs Adventure ❤️
Hey guys, It's hard to explain in words the feeling after watching this week it just filled me and everyone with happiness. That smile you get from deep down in your core. Balance, moderation, consistency is what we all strive for but generally get stuck with a routine, creatures of habit. For those that suffer from anxiety/Asd like my 2 boys routine is necessary in this world.
Hence my van project giving them a different element of life. Thats when I found you guys thankyou for being you.
Getting to know and love yourself is part of the problem today not many people stop to know who they are themselves, just to busy.
You both have found the path and guide each other.
I'm so happy you invited all of us, it's not the words alone it's all the elements together you guys are the nectar of life that join those pieces.
I'm so proud and honoured to be apart of your patreon family.
Keep talking about patreon the family will grow 😊
Very proud of you both.
Toby
I'm so happy to be a part of your patreon family.
Thanks Toby! It means the world to us that you chose to support us on Patreon. Sending you smiles from deep within 😁💚
