We really packed a whole lot into one day! Last week’s episode of our time diving Devil’s Den Prehistoric Spring in Florida was the beginning of our first travel day leaving the Sunshine State for the first time in 4 months. If you missed that video, you can check it out here: • DONE ✅ AFTER 5 YEARS |... .
Devil’s Den was our last Florida adventure before heading up to Savannah, Georgia, for the first time! We stayed at Lotts Island RV Park which is a military campground in Savannah. We tried to get into a Harvest Host in town that we have heard really great reviews on, but they were booked. Check out Coaches Corner the next time you are in the area and need a place to stop for the night! They even have a few sites with hookups!
Our weekend in Savannah was condensed into 1 evening because of bad weather and cold temperatures rolling in. So we made the best of our time by heading to Forsyth Park to see the iconic fountain and Civil War Monument.
We then drove out to Tybee Island to grab some dinner and walk along the beach! We missed the Tybee Island Lighthouse tour but will definitely be back SOMEDAY for that one! Dinner at North Beach Bar and Grill was delicious. We can’t wait to get back to Savannah to explore even more!
And now for the weather: this was one of the rougher travel days we have ever had on the road. With pouring rain all day and over 7 accidents on our 4.5 hour journey to Fayetteville, North Carolina, we added an extra hour and a half to the journey and were ready to get off the road for a bit.
We were in the area to visit Corey’s brother who is based on Fort Bragg in the Army. The rain created some RV off-roading fun in his yard! Don’t worry, Corey had the truck thoroughly cleaned the next day!
Time with family is one of the greatest blessings that comes with full time travel! These goodbyes are hard, but as Corey said, we would rather say goodbye than to have never said hi in the first place.
Our last leg of the journey before getting to Tennesee to visit with Nathan and Marissa from Less Junk, More Journey was a stop in Greenville, South Carolina, to visit with friends from high school. Love when these quick visits can fit into the schedule!
Stay tuned for next week as we hang out with Less Junk, More Journey and begin our trek up to Indiana for some RV maintenance, seRV events and some fun surprises! Be sure to like and subscribe and click on the bell icon for notifications when we release new videos!

We drove through Nashville yesterday and the traffic was nuts. So many people getting rear ended and stopping traffic. And then we discovered... It was all because Taylor Swift was performing at the Nissan stadium. Our new joke as we get close to a city, "I sure hope Taylor Swift didn't get here before us."
That’s not all , there were three. College graduations another concert downtown and the regular nuts 🤣
Tay, Tay ! Yup that’ll do it 😂
Route 50 Colorado right before monarch pass. Construction 🚧. Waited at least 45 minutes for other side to do their pass before we went. And was it hairy going through the construction ! With a 31' TT 😮
Oh man, I feel you one that one! Sometimes I don’t think they take into account there will be trailers 😳
Was that on the west side between Gunnison and Montrose? That stretch was being rebuilt last summer. It was a mess!
My wife and I love savannah. Its where we met and got married. Both of us were stationed at Hunter Army Airfield for 6 years and still didn't get to do everything savannah and the surrounding area had to offer. Although two of those years were spent in Afghanistan. We're hoping to get the RV over there soon. We look forward to your video every week. God Bless.
Savannah and Charleston are at the top of our list for long trips. I will wait for the Midwest till i retire.
We have a GMG Trek, because of you. Smoked Sock eye Salmon yesterday. I was born in Fayetteville too many years ago.
Such a great grill, glad you’re enjoying it ! I bet that was good 😋
We love that area! Hurricane Nicole ran us out of St Auggies and into Savannah and Tybee. The lighthouse turned our legs to jello! PS we ate at that same restaurant! They had the best fries! Let us know when ya go back, we’ll meet up!
Highly recommend Creek Fire Motor Ranch in Savannah and driftwood beach on Jekyll Island.
Loved what you said, I would rather say many goodbyes then no hellos.
Traveling to see family, and old military friends is always fun, and less stressful than driving in weather on highways and dealing with accidents/crazy drivers.
OMG it's been a while since we had MRE's. The last time I went to the base MRE's were up to $13.00 each. They've gone up in price!!!
WHAT A WONDERFUL FAMILY VISIT SAFE AND HAPPY TRAVELS AND ADVENTURING. HAVE FUN WITH NATHAN AND MARISSA. I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE YOU ALL
We loved Savanah in the spring. #pivot. Always makes me laugh.
I was stationed at Fort Bragg for several years. And love Savanna
Went to school in Greenville waaaay long ago….Greenville sure has changed!
OMG!!! The MRE memories!! BCT, AIT, deployment 😂❤️
There is a Tandem in Portland Maine too, which is also a coffee shop.
We always add 2 hours to the drive time that it says on the gps. We have dogs and stop and let them have some fun time at a rest stop or wherever we stop. Plus meals in our motorhome and we do not travel over 60 mph
Im wearing the Buc-ees shirt we got in TN now. We must have just missed the rain and you guys. Maybe someday we'll actually run into you out there 😅. Stay safe guys! ❤
Love yalls channel!! My dad would always say..Bye for now! He past away in 2020,and I miss him! Safe travels! God Bless yalls family..new subscriber from south east Kansas
Thank you 🙏 sorry to hear about your dad… appreciate the support! God bless you too!
Excellent Video. Thank You For Sharing!
Thank you for sharing. Blessings
Our family loves that coastal area of Ga. We spent about a week around Jekyll island last year and have camped in Savannah several times. And, we only live about an hour north of Fayetteville, so let us know the next time you’re close..would love to share a meal with y’all. Thanks again for sharing with us.
Great episode. Y'all covered some miles and adventures. Whooa to your Brudda. Thank him for his service. We appreciate it. MREs are way better than the old Sea Rats. Your Brother can install field tile, like a French Drain with a plastic pipe with holes, and run the water to the back of his property. Thank you for bringing us along. We really appreciate it
The first (of two times) visit to Savannah we went out to Tybee Island & I totally fell in love with it. We did the lighthouse trip & I got a few good shots…not a fan of heights. We were there I think in March both times.
We spent last week in Nashville. Had a blast. Can’t wait to get back.
Nice video. We did 4 days in Savanna and the Tybee Island light house tour along the way back in Feb. The weather was absolutely beautiful in the upper 60’s and lower 70’s.
Tybee has good rv park that I would recommend!
When I was at Bragg, SF had MREs, but us 82nd guys were still eating surplus c-rats. It was definitely a treat the one or two time I did have them, mostly because of the weight!!!
Thank you for your service 👊 I don’t think I have ever had a C-rat !
@@FindingOurSomeday Consider yourself lucky 😂
I ate c-rats in basic and the original brown bag MRE when I was at Bragg. Thank your brother for his service. Just hope being at Bragg he's not a leg. 😂
Beautiful video, thanks again for sharing🤩
Thank you so much for being here with us!
Nice, we were there 3wks ago (Apr 16-18). We loved Savannah. The river walk area was our favorite. Eating at the Hitch restaurant, also nice. Wormsloe is pretty special too. Fortunately our weather was great. We just left Smokey Mountain NP in Tennessee. Hope you see Cades Cove.
Driving Flagstaff to Phoenix from a camping trip we were parked on the I-17 freeway for a wildfire. Took probably 2 hours since there were no exits to divert traffic.
I just had the worse travel day of my life in mid April ... 40 w west of Ashville ...GPS said arrival time was 545 ...construction caused a FOUR hour delay !!! I hate setting up in the dark ....On the drainage issue at your brothers ...I would have a slight swale graded into the side yard ...much better than a french drain as eventually the gravel and or pipe will fill full of sediment ... .Retired excavating contractor here ...IMHO
Love the Spanish moss too! Great video, FOS! Safe travels!
I hear washing the rig in the rain is the way to go. It’s a free spot free rinse. I’ll forward the the video link if I can find it. 😂
Some folks have even been known to take their shirt off while washing their rig too. 😜
Amazing trip. So glad that y'all weren't involved in any of those accidents. Drive Days in bad weather is never fun. Stay safe and keep the awesome videos coming.
Improvise, adapt and overcome!!!
👍👍
Have you tried Power Service Additive?Cetane Boost. Summer and Winter Anti-gel versions.
I’ve used the Cetane boost, luckily were not in cold weather so I haven’t had to 911 anti gel 🤞 this Lucas product is specifically for cleaning the DPF .
In so happy to see you giving a review of Savannah, have to go there .
Even with just a few hours it was so worth the stop! Thanks for watching!
We love Savannah! Highly recommend the Wormsloe Estate and Fort McCallister. The whole area is swimming in history. We went last July 4th and will return when it is cooler. I had four days' worth of recording that I was ready to try editing but held the phone incorrectly. Douh!! Too embarrassed to edit and post so, . . . next time.
You folks have it down pat and serve as an inspiration! Thank you for another great video!!
Just love your hearts!
You guys were right down the road from our home base outside of Fayeteville. Would have been cool to cross paths! My wife is currently working in Beaufort SC so I travel that section if 95 often and the traffic and road construction is always bad.
I’m sure we will cross paths one day! We will be back!
Great video. I love how you guys love people, family & friends. It’s very special! Lily with the MREASTER 😂😂. And the boy falling after the spin. Had me rolling
Another fun video! I need to go visit my brother. Haven't seen each other since 2016. Need to make time, definitely.
I cannot believe you let your fuel tank go that low! Yikes! 😟😬 I never let mine go below 1/3 full!
There sure are a lot of additives for diesel, aren't there? After much research, I decided to use Hot Shot's Secret Every Day Treatment (EDT). Engine runs much smoother and quieter and I'm getting better mileage. Highly recommend!
Safe travels, y'all!
You were lucky, a little further north and you could have been in our NC red clay which is really nasty! You can hardly move in it when it rains!
Great episode!
Atleast the mud is all sand here in Fayetteville.
That's why they call it crashville.
Makes sense 😳
The campground on Tybee makes it easy to get to the beach ❤
We tried to stay there, they were booked unfortunately
@@FindingOurSomeday that coffee shop in Travelers Rest has great food!
We were there at the beginning of March but scooted out of there before the St Patty’s craziness started. When I went on an F16 crash investigation to Korea I looked for the MRE’s with candy bars.
Oh my word!!! The Crepe and Coffee looked AMAZING! And the set up is SO ADORABLE!! Was that in Greenville?
Wife is still bummed we never made it to Savannah. We even had reservations at the Lott Island Rv park, but had to cancel. Excited that we will get to see you guys again at the Getaway.
Savannah and Jekyll Island are two if my favorite places. ❤ At least you made the best of your time there despite the weather. 😉
OMG we were at that same light house on Tybee Island yesterday! We have been in this area for several days. We went to Savannah saw the Forsyth fountain, just beautiful. When you go back make sure to visit the Cathedral of St John, it is the most beautiful church I have ever seen, and I am not a church person but it was beautiful. The River walk is also awesome. The stairs going down to the walk wis surprise you. We just loved the historical buildings. Great video next time we will plan a sunset by the light house that looked great!
We love history as well, thanks for the tips! We’re you able to go up into the lighthouse? We will definitely have to go back . We only got about 4 hrs total between Savannah and Tybee .
@@FindingOurSomeday no we did not get up into the light house. We also stopped at Fort Pulaski got in free with our National park pass. The fort was very cool.
@@melindaroberts4921 I really wanted to stop there! We just didn’t have the time…
Was it just a coincidence that you put the Forest gump clip in the Savanah GA episode? I believe that scene was filmed 3 blocks from the fountain.
MRE’s, Meals Refusing to Exit is what we used to call them! LOL 😂
With my HeyFever, its a no go on the "Fragrance" garden.
A must see fort Pulaski…see all the cannon fire damage on east side
Thanks for sharing glad yall are having safe travels! Cory Lucas is great but Hot Shot Secrets has fantastic products for diesels! Docs diesel products is a new place I am getting my filters killer prices and American made!
Looking forward to the grill/smoker off!
I’ve heard great things about hotshot! The Lucas product I mentioned is a specific DPF cleaner. I don’t believe hotshot has any products for that.
@@FindingOurSomeday Hot Shot Secrets products are desired to help minimize the need for a specific DPF cleaner. When running there system. Lucas makes great product not saying they don't. HS has helped both my truck noticeably. Look forward to seeing the video of what you do on your truck that you touched on briefly!
Diesel deep clean a great additive, ever clean your MAP sensor?
Totally enjoyed this episode! We love Savanna, GA and the surrounding area. Thank you for sharing your travels with us.
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for joining us!
My hometown
The MREaster hunt was pretty cool for the girls!!! Snacks for long road trips!!! The MRE's are way better than our C-rats.... and Pops says the K-rats were chocolate, cigarettes , fruit and something in a can u never tasted just swallowed!
Thank you for your service👊 never had a c-rat but k-rats sound hardcore 😳
Really enjoy your channel. We have been to Savannah several times and always enjoy. Would have been nice to hook up with you guys as we live in Fayetteville, Ga. Safe travels and God bless your family.
We have a question. The sprayer handle you use when you wash your rig, does it need the power washer attached to get a strong enough flow or were you just using it with the hose from your brothers house and the nozzle gave you enough pressure to clean off all that mud? Thanks Cory. Can’t wait for our shirts to come in!
How many takes did the walking around the park in Savannah take? Another great video.
Thank you! Just one take, we just did a loop😃
Not to far from us being in Greenville SC
Tybee Island: if you’ve not gone to The Breakfast Club, you have missed out. Best Chicken Fried Chicken ever!!
You were out in neck of the woods to see the uncle.
Thought it Fayetteville Ga , didn’t know it was N.C. Still would have been nice to hook up with you.
In 1973 I was stationed at NAS Albany in Georgia. Was a beautiful place. Now? Avoid it! Navy left and it became a pit.
Sad to things go that way sometimes…
Thank you for your service 🙏
Welcome to North Carolina I live probably 30 minutes from your brother, Corey I'd love to meet up with you guys one day I watch you all the time on CZcams. we currently live in Benson North Carolina on a small pond in a small neighborhood which I'd love to have you visit but I don't know if I could park you here lol anyway enjoy your time with family and stay out of the mud and get that truck washed lol
Thank you, we appreciate the support 🙏Sounds like a beautiful property! Maybe we will cross paths next time we are in the area.
When you stay in a church parking lot, do you check with the church first?
I don't think I have ever driven north on I 95 from Brunswick Ga without having to sit in blocked traffic for as much as 1 1/2 hours and most of the time you never even see what caused it
Looks like we were on par for the course 😂
I got down to 3 miles to Empty one time. Wanita stressed out starting at 50 miles!
Where did you guys camp at when you stayed here
I am surprised that you were able to get a spot on Lotts Island.
Probably because it was just one night, we booked it like 2 hrs before we got there. Tybee was booked and we missed the harvest host by like 2 mins while checking to make sure it was ok to detach if we stayed there😃
Thanks for sharing family time. By the way, are there FOS stickers for sale? Wifey and I are getting ready to hit the road cross country this year and feel naked without your sticker on our new to us GD Reflection! I cringed seeing the mud on your rig, lol.
Thanks for watching! Our store with stickers for all orders just ended a couple days ago . Congratulations on the new rig. We will try to get stickers up on another store soon! I appreciate the interest!
Did you guys hint at getting a new truck a couple months back or did i make that up?
You didn’t make it up.
You guys know that Spanish moss is a invasive species that kills the tree and is full of bugs u cant see that will bite you if u handle it. Love watching you guys though
WHEW!
Traveled through Savannah probably about 60 years ago. It was a dump. Kept on moving.
It isn't a dump now. It is renovated and VERY nice.
Seems to be alright now, we typically avoid city’s either way though🫣
I have a 2019 Chevrolet 3500 with the L5P and it’s still under warranty for the powertrain and I have an aftermarket warranty on that truck. Will that diesel deep clean work for my truck? I don’t wanna avoid any warranties.
Yes sir, it will work. Not worries about voiding any warranty .
Two questions for ya'll; Do you keep a "To Do" list for things to return to or ideas for future visits? and How many miles have you towed your trailer around this great nation? Just curious.
Always on the road again 🙄 😊. Super 👌 👍 great 🇺🇸 👍.
Less junk more journey
Are great u tube family
We couldn’t agree more! Some of our dearest friends!
Spanish Moss = Red bugs!!!!
Cory, I am an architectural drafter specializing in single family homes for over 40 years, drafting and designing homes very literally from the ground up, from raw site to turn-key complete. Almost all of my hundreds of projects have been built in western Washington State, and I'm REALLY familiar with drainage issues, having lived in a state where it rains more than 150" a year and where are the good sites were gone 100+ years ago. I'm certain I can help your brother figure out how to solve the drainage issues in his side yard. How do I contact you in a non-public forum so that I can give you my contact info to forward to your brother?
Another great episode, BTW. Jess talking about how friends you have a long history with are so special reminded me of visiting with one of my high school best friends who I hadn't seen in over 20 years. I was visiting with my son in Long Beach, CA and she came up on the train from her home base in San Diego. My son and I met her at the train station, which had an elevated platform. My son and I were about 50 yards away on the ground in the parking lot and the sun was in our eyes, so all the folks up on the platform were little black silhouettes to us, but I knew Linda (my friend) immediately, even in silhouette and after 20 years, the moment she came into view. I waved at her, she saw my wave and waved back. We got to spend most of the day together with my son and his wife, went to a baseball game at Angel Stadium (across the street/highway from the original Disneyland). Angel Stadium has it's own train station stop next to the parking lot, and she had to catch the last train back to SD around the 3rd inning, but once again, even from the nosebleed seats of the stadium, in the deepening dusk, I was able to pick her out of the all the other folks heading for the train station and just before she entered the station, she turned and waved. I waved back, thinking there was no way she'd ever be able to see me, sitting in a crowded stadium, but she emailed me later that same night and told me she had. The powerful connections with people that we make over our lifetime are just so...I don't have words for their importance. And it's not often that I find myself at a loss for words, hahaha.
👍🇺🇲 thank you for another great video, now I can go to sleep
Thank you 😊 Sorry we kept you up ! Hope the sleep was good 😴
@@FindingOurSomeday thanks, it always is
😊😊😊😊
I bet every video, every town, every state- somebody says you're this >< close to them. Yup. I wish my wife and I could have met you when you were in Greenville. But you just can't meet everyone, right?! One day hopefully.... keep the videos coming until then please. (and long after!!)
Does this mean that you are skipping Hilton Head?
This time unfortunately…
@@FindingOurSomeday so sad, but safe travels. Enjoy the journey!!!
Y'all are only 30 minutes away from me
In which spot 🫣
Pickens SC
What
Need to find the low spot before u do anything on the landscape
