- Join me on an unforgettable journey along Michigan's scenic Highway 23! 🚗💨 This isn't just any road trip-it's a ride through history and stunning natural beauty along the Lake Huron shoreline. 🌊🌲
📍 First stop: the majestic 40-Mile Point Lighthouse, where we'll explore its towering presence and the nearby JosephS Fay Shipwreck, still resting on the sandy shores. 🏖️🚢 Dive into the tales of sailors and storms as we visit the fascinating local museum. Beautiful views and scenic visitor park
Unexpected turns make the best stories, and when my van needed repairs, Oscoda, Michigan, became my home for three weeks. 🛠️🚐 While there, I discovered the charming old town, relaxed at the peaceful Oscoda Beach Park and pier, and soaked in the views at Foote Dam and Reservoir. 🏞️🌳
But that’s not all-join me for a ride out to the Huron-Manistee Forests Lumberman's Monument and a trip to the intriguing Wurtsmith Air Base Museum. ✈️🌲 Each stop is packed with history and breathtaking views!

GOD BLESS , UNITED STATES AMERICA , RUSS, RVerTV FANS. I live in Canada - 5 miles inland - Lake Huron - Amberley Ontario. WE LOVE RVerTV - BEST TV ON CZcams. Thank you Russ.😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
My 3X Great Grandfather, Isaac Coddington, was the first lighthouse keeper of the Presque Isle Range Lights. Also Roger's Quarry was originally Crawford's Quarry founded by my ancestors. Thank you for the nostalgic trip.
It's called dinner if you go to a restaurant to eat, it's called Supper when you eat at home
I just wanted to say thank you. My mother-in-law passed 3 weeks ago and she loved to watch your travel. She would I wouldn't be able to see these places. She always looked forward to your next video. She almost made it to 94. I just really want to thank you.
awww. i am sorry. One of the main reasons I do these videos is for people just like your Mom. Thanks for watching and take care
Hey, Hey, RVerTV ,Russ, Exploreing Michigan on senic Highway 23,Yay 👍
Well now you’re in my neck of the woods and you passed my house Lol 40 mile Point Lighthouse and shipwreck is about 30 miles away. Enjoyed visiting there multiple times. I can’t say I take my wonderful Michigan for granted because I don’t but you are right winter is brutal-much rather be in Arizona 😍
Thank you for showing off my beautiful State. Lived my whole life here and never going to live anywhere else. I got everything I need right here in Michigan.
WAY TO GO...RUSS 😊
Love seeing Oscoda again! My husband was stationed at Wurtsmith after high school in 1989. We met later in life, but he took me to Oscoada for the first time in 2009. It was like taking a walk back in time. I think it was the first trip or the return trip in 2011 that we found the Pure Michigan travel brochure. On the front was Pictured Rocks in Munising, MI in the UP. We fell in love with the UP on our first visit. We try to make it back every year, at least every other year. Lol Northern Michigan is a gorgeous place to visit! Thanks for sharing!
Cool video Russ. I love seeing my homestate of Michigan. The Great Lakes are beasts. There are over 6,000 shipwrecks throughout the Lakes. The waters can get pretty rough.
Very cool Russ 😎
When you mentioned McClellan AirForce Base in Sacramento, it brought me wonderful memories and flashbacks of when I moved there in 1977, from Hawaii.. my Band and Polynesian Show used to perform there at the Officers’ Club. There was another big AirForce Base called Mather, about 8 miles away, in East Sacramento(Ranch Cordova)..both closed.
Aloha 🤙
Love love your channel , ❤️, God bless you Sir on your journeys , 🙏🤗
❤ way to cool for school wow thanks this is awesome❤
Russ I love listening to your voice so calm and easy listening !
You passed the best part of Michigan we call it the thumb of Michigan Rus
thanks a lot Man!
Best day ever 💓
Nice trip Russ! I was hoping he didn't drop the window carrying it to the shop🤣
I so enjoy your travelogue videos. I can never go on any of them myself. This makes them special. Thank you for them and God Bless you.
Michigan is our Home state. Love the lakes and and beauty there. Thanks for showing it off. Great place to be stranded. - Michelle
Hı,I liked today's beaches very much... thanks 👍
started following you when we stayed in Quartzsite at Holiday Palms RV park. You get so close to our town of Speedway, IN. You should come for the Indy 500! We live about three blocks away. You could park in our yard!
so sorry about the delay in your travels. but watching this video transported me to my youth. I'm from Michigan and we belonged to a camping club.. I just love your channel. it makes me so happy to watch your videos.. hope to see you on the road soon ❤❤❤
Oscoda is pronounced Os code a like the wind talkers not Os cod a like the fish.
NE MI is some of the prettiest country around.
Lived there for several years before retirement in FL
My Dad said Supper too🤣, old school, for sure ❤️👍. Always enjoy your videos..missed seeing you at Quartzsite this year, at the Big Tent RV Show, since I was traveling to Samoa (South Pacific) and I showed my family and friends one of your videos last year at Quartzsite, you showed my RV, with “team JESUS” on the side, parked infront of the Store where you raffle off an E Bike, plus, you Russ is The Ambassador for Quartzsite 👍.
Sorry about your window buddy.. safe travels and abundant blessings 🙏✋.
Russ, I'm glad that the rock only hit your window and wall of the van. That would've probably been more than just a little ouchie if it hit you. I'm still watching the video, and besides seeing the rock damage, I'm really enjoying the scenery there.
THANKS!
Russ ! That freighter Wheelhouse you were in at Calsite MI, I was in it in 1970, When I was 8 ! I have a photo standing near the railing by the door, it was located in the Rodgers City Quarry back then. Also long waited for the Van side Window 'Blow out' The same window I watched you and a friend install 5 years ago in the Lk Havasu garage. It figures a rock hit it in Michigan on the Highway, as I'm in MI. of all places., a long layover to get the part and install I see (Rare for you). Usually, it's the Windshield that takes the hit on our MI roads, rock chips !
All your wonderful videos are super cool to watch love all of them.
Thank you for the video.
Great place to be stranded in.
Hey Russ, just an interesting fact regarding the canoe racing you mentioned while in Oscoda. It is a huge affair and is actually one of the longest canoe marathons in the world. It begins in Graying, Mi which is hundreds of miles upstream. Usually starts around 9P.M. on a Friday or Saturday night. Tandem teams paddle what used to be known as "222 Boats". They were 22 inches wide, 22 feet long and weighed just 22 pounds. Yes, they were fast! Racers would paddle all night in the darkness and the fastest would finish in AuSauble/Oscoda around 11A.M. the following morning. They said paddling in this race was akin to standing in front of a coal pile and throwing shovels full of coal over your shoulders for fourteen consecutive hours! Fun, eh?
Have family in Oscoda. Glad you are having a great time.
Awesome road trip! The shipwreck memorial & the air museum were especially cool! I'm very sorry about your window breaking, that's a bummer. But definitely a beautiful place to be stuck for a little while, like you said. Greetings from central Florida.
Beautiful really Beautiful!
Beautiful area! . Reminded me of days when my grandmother doing crossword puzzles, listening to the baseball game on the car radio.and waiting for 4th of July fireworks !I’m not much for boats except a pontoon?!
All the trees got cut down to rebuilding a lot of big city’s there state park call Hartwick pines in Michigan, they protected the trees are over 300 years old
Awesome video. I usually take 23 from Mackinaw when heading back to Ohio. Everything I stopped at 40 mile lighthouse but it was always closed. So it was cool to see your video on it.
My son and I used to tent camp at Harrisville, then head to Oscoda kayaking or canoing down the Au Sable. Great to see these sites again.
So very sorry about your window. But glad you got to explore the area. Fun place..
Thank you for your videos
That window was a pane! 😅
Yo Russ, you've landed in my hometown Oscoda. I see you started your exploration at Three Mile Beach. My granddaughter lives directly across US. 23 from the beach is able to walk there daily. I'm commenting as you're leaving 3 Mile. Your second stop was City Beach. That was the hangout when we were young people about 100 years ago . Down behind the Ford dealer was our family farm that was established in the mid-1800s. We had our son and daughter-in-law's wedding rehearsal dinner on the Au Sable River Queen paddle boat Looking forward to the rest of the video.
LOL🤣, Yuckdonalds🤣🤣.. hey Russ, can you please mention the prices of gas in the different states you travel.. it’s $6.00 in California,(average $5.80) regular, ridiculous 😎. Thanks 🤙
most national, state pars and monuments were build by FDR WPA CCC which helped employe thousands of men and boys and pulled uss out of the great depression. also I think army corp of engineers built all the power oplants or helped design them. pretty important part of history.
It's pronunciation is ahs-coda we had a cottage just outside of Oscoda. Miss the area.
Yay! More videos of Michigan. Wife and I lived in Alpena way back in the early to mid 70's. Now near Iron Mountain in the U.P. Very much enjoy all your videos especially of Michigan, the Yoop and your van build. I have a question though. Did you not have any video of your travels last summer of the drive from Calumet Mi. across the Lake Superior shoreline to the Soo Locks. Watched your videos of the Western portion of the U.P (Ontonagon, Calumet, etc) and the Soo Locks and down to St Ignace, across the Big Mac. and on to Mackinac City then further south along the Sun Rise side of the Mitten along U.S.23. What became of the video that I presumed you would have M28 westward through Marquette, Munising and through The Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore? I was certain you would have stopped at the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point. You would have loved it! Many of the recovered artifacts of the Edmund Fitchgerald are on display there. Including the ship's bell. Every year on November 10th Gordon Lightfoot would contribute to the memorial celebration there in person up until his passing this last year. Just thought it curious that no video was taken along one of the most beautiful scenic drives in the midwest. Maybe it was the weather, or technical difficulties, ha, ha? I hope there is still footage of this section hiding somewhere within your vast amount of film storage waiting to be edited and uploaded. Sorry for your window incident and the delays it caused. Again, love and have watched nearly all your videos. Even went back in time to watch your archives after discovering your channel! ........... "Talk Soon"!
Thanks for the "Zen" Moment. 🎉
You should've visited calcite stone quarry ,it's the largest in the USA and you can watch the freighters getting loaded and unloading
Cut some 1/2 inch thick plexiglass, seal it in. Leave the windows cracked open a bit so it won't pop out when u close the door. Some window film & a hair dryer to make it shrink
Crazy you were in oscoda I fish there everyday. You should have stopped at the pier you would have seen me 🤣🤣
Chanute AFB in Rantoul Illinois was converted into a museum but then closed a few years ago. I’m not sure what they are doing with it now.
Sascuach threw the rock.
👍
My family always said supper too. I think very educated proper people would say dinner. To me, it's whatever you grew up saying.
Hi !
Hope you doing well, with God's help .
I have some questions .. .
about New Mexico ...
Did you ever encounter any strange creatures around there ?
Do you think the rock was thrown at you? I can’t imagine it just getting kicked up from the road into your passenger side glass.
Enjoy the videos!
is there a chance u can claim insurance under any of your policies for the broken window?
but to add, the deductible may be $500 n if your window replacement costs less, not worth filing claim.
@1:20:19. i`m a lumberjack and i`m okay, i sleep all night and i work all day...
History goes back thousands of years there, not just centuries.
There were people inhabiting all of 'America' before people floated in and 'founded' it.
Absolutely nothing worse than a German made vehicle, I know because I have a BMW. High maintenance and the parts are expensive, just one reason the Germans lost WWII…

I love the lighthouse
water waves 🌊
Thank you 🌹
