    Seriously I can’t believe I’m getting choked up over an RV. And it’s not even my RV. 😭

    I'm sure you already know that anyone who has ever posted negative comments is due to their own insecurities and jealousy. You two keep enjoying this beautiful life you've worked so hard for and we'll keep supporting you along the way🔆

    I thank you for taking us down memory lane with the old rig. You have taken us to some great places, and showed some great upgrades . One door closes, another door opens.
    Will be looking forward to seeing the new rig and watching you "make" it yours. And the sooner you get it, the sooner we can all get packed up for the new adventures. Looking forward to that.
    God bless ya'll and hope Tara's health stays good. Had an aunt with Lyme, not pleasant for sure.
    Stay safe and enjoy the journey.

    If you're no more than 40 ft, Golden Acres Ranch in Monticello, FL was our first Harvest Host experience and what a fabulous place. We had our own gated enclosure, good for our little dog, but the best part was the serenity of the farm, and being able to walk around and admire the animals they have there. Spectacular place.

    Your RV is your home. Selling it is very emotional. From watching the video it was easy to tell that you bought it at Lazydays in Tampa. We bought ours there too. We have a 2006 42' Monaco Dynasty Class A diesel pusher. One thing my wife likes on travel days is if she wants to stay in her pajamas all day she can. We have full access to everything with the slides in. My wife is handicapped. She finds traveling in the motorhome very comfortable. Especially with 10 air bags. The ride is very comfortable. Plus she can go to the bathroom while I am driving. No more getting off at every other exit for her to use the bathroom. As for my most scariest moment. That would be on our maiden voyage. We went to Virginia Beach for a conference. After that we drove out Rt 64 to the Blue Ridge mountains and turned south on I-81. This was the first of December. We were driving in the mountains after dark and it was raining. It was pitch black out and cars were flying past us. I was definitely terrified that night. I learned what the engine brake was for that night and we became good friends. Lol!!! 😂 There is a whole story that goes with that day, but I'll leave it for another time. Lol!!! 😂 I hope you love your new rig even more than the old one. 🙂

      Fire safety. In your kitchen, bathroom and where you grill. Fiberglass fire blanket or an open box of baking soda. Baking soda is same principle as proteng but you have to toss it yourself.

      New Mexico is not pretty everywhere! You could stay in Ruidoso, NM, it’s a couple hours from Carlsbad, and about a hour from the White Sands. Staying in Ruidoso, you avoid the flat and the heat. Nice little mountain town. Cloudcroft, NM, also a cute mountain town to visit in the same area!

    We have a 2021 376THS and have been fulltime for a year. We both work. I took out one couch for wife and made butcher block desk stained to match for wife and took out kitchen table for me and made same butcher block desk for me. We haven't given up any living space due to large garage and it's been great. I agree with small bathroom. We have queen bed and it's been fine. Good luck on the new rig!

    Big job to move out, then move in. Do it while you are young, it is easier and you heal much faster. Wishing you the very best with your new home. We will continue to follow and see the spaces you see in person, without all the prep, travel and expense, hope you don't mind.

    It’s nice to upgrade when your able to. You guys are blessed. You guys earned it. Me and my husband like to go camping on off road camping. We hope to buy a true off-road trailer around 19 feet long, that will cost like $100,000 . This is my desire. It’s a perfect size for me and hubby. We do a lot of boon-docking. This is what would meet our need for camping.

  • @cathyhann7957
    @cathyhann7957 Před rokem

    I had a TT that was destroyed by a tornado. A blessing in disguise because that’s why I bought the fifth wheel I have now. But now any storm scares the daylight out of me. If I had been in the bed at the time I would not be here to talk about it. A big tree went right thru the front thru the bed and thru the bottom of camper.

    Hi! Excited for you on the new RV!! Wanted to offer a suggestion for your ‘no access to refrigerator during travel issue’ if you have the space available. When we upgraded to our 397, we lost our outdoor kitchen. We purchased a small refrigerator for the garage for additional cold storage for drinks, etc. Cant wait to get a formal tour of your new home on wheels!!

  • @jimwalton7665
    @jimwalton7665 Před rokem +1

    Success with command hooks or any bonding job depends on preparation and surface applied; the surface for the tape to be applied must be clean, really clean, flat and smooth. Alcohol can be used on many surfaces, if you can't use alcohol, soap (dawn dish detergent) and water, then rinse, rinse, rinse. If alcohol is used for cleaning, let it air dry for 30 minutes minimum before applying adhesive (adhesive tap). Love your video's.

  • @johnnylightning1491
    @johnnylightning1491 Před rokem

    For those that have trouble with command strips, alcohol is your friend, it cleans down to the substrate. Just a little bitty bit of contamination will cause the command strips to fail. Please don't ask how I know this. I've wondered about having at least one maybe more CO2 fire extinguishers on board. I know they're not rated for Class A fires because they may leave embers behind which may reignite but the dry chemical one's sure do make a mess and CO2 extinguishers can be used to control a run away diesel. Not that this is a common problem but it's one of the only ways to stop one. Keep the good stuff coming guys and enjoy your new rig.
