    If you’re interested in shipwrecks there is a museum of sorts in Port Huron called the Maritime Center (locals just refer to it as Vantage Point) it has a lot of information on where to find the shipwrecks. It’s pretty interesting.

    Great video of your trip up and around Michigan's "Thumb" and M25. I enjoyed seeing the beaches along M25, my childhood home of Harbor Beach, and the gorgeous night sky of Point Aux Barques.
    I can't wait to visit my home state, and all the sights along M25 in 2024. ❤️

    I found your channel a month ago, really enjoy what you do. Michigan is my home state. It's awesome to see it though someone who takes pride in their work to show it off properly. There was a serious lack of quality Michigan videos here on youtube. Thanks for helping to remedy that!

      Ahh thank you so much Matt I really appreciate that feedback, it means the world! So glad you’re enjoying the videos. Happy to be share my passion for Michigan with everyone else! ❤️

    Another excellent video! I just returned from a trip with my best friend from high school and we drove over 5,000 miles. We visited the Badlands of SD, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Yellowstone National Park and Glacier National Park. The next trip to Yellowstone will be for multiple days. We were there for 2.5 days and didn’t see all of it but we kept clear of the most populated areas. We have so many beautiful areas in our country. I’m so glad you’re able to get your van fixed and hopefully will be ready for another adventure. You’re always welcome in Texas but wait until it’s cooler around November.

    Great video. We really enjoy them. We just got into Vanlife part time ourselves. We love the thumb area and just spent 3 days on the beach in Caseville. If you guys are ever in need to camp in the Saginaw area, hit us up. We've opened our driveway up to vanlifers for a night or 2. We live on a small lake, so the scenery is great. Keep up the hard work.

      Awesome! Thank you so much for the feedback and for the offer that is so generous. Send me a message on IG if possible since there is no way to contact you through YT besides comments. Thanks again for watching!

    Hey I just did a suv life trip out west and let me tell you, these "issues" are worth having now before you are able to go west for long periods of time. The right things will happen at the right time!

    • @feliciafullwood
      @feliciafullwood  Před rokem +1

      Yes for sure! Happy to hear that confirmed haha. Would have been a big bummer for the van to break down out there or fan to break out there in the middle of the summer heat 😅

  • @ModernDayPilgrim
    @ModernDayPilgrim Před rokem +2

    Felicia! You are so close to me! We gotta connect some time! I love Fort Gratiot County Park! Great place to rock hunt too! I’ve never seen the Northern Lights. It’s on my list. Great video. Hoping you get all the things fixed with your van, and I’m so glad you were able to get another fan. That is great customer service right there!
    Have a fabulous day! 😃💯🙌🏼

    • @feliciafullwood
      @feliciafullwood  Před rokem +1

      Oh no way that’s awesome! We will be in the area a lot more since it’s the closest place for us to swim in the lake from Detroit! Would love to meet up one day! And thanks for the well wishes! The van is fixed and we just have to install the new fan now! :D

    Love the videos when did you put the fan in, what kind is it, and how are you powering it? Is there another video with that?

  • @lillypatience
    @lillypatience Před rokem +1

    Hi! New subscriber here and was binge watching your videos. Wondering if you noticed a difference in temp in your van since stripping the interior and could that be making it hotter in your van? One of your winter videos you mentioned that you thought the van was well insulated.

    • @feliciafullwood
      @feliciafullwood  Před rokem +2

      Omg that is so cool! Thank you for a watching! And yes definitely feel a difference since removing the interior ceiling. The metal on the roof gets SO hot in the sun. Window coverings do help though! But We are planning to add insulation to that soon!

    Which app you used to check on active northern light ? We’re always want to see it, just Couldn’t find a right app

    • @feliciafullwood
      @feliciafullwood  Před rokem

      I use the My Aurora Forecast & Alerts app! Sometimes it will say things are good and then you get skunked though. I’ve only seen them twice and both times it was by accident. That’s just the magic of it and what makes it so special tho! Hope you see them soon! :D

    Amazing video! If you don't mind answering, what do you do at the moment as a source of income to be able to afford all these amazing trips?

    • @feliciafullwood
      @feliciafullwood  Před rokem

      Thank you so much for watching! I do photography full time and that has been my main source of income since 2017. I actually have a video on my channel talking about how I make money with photography, that might be more specific! Thanks again for the kind words! :)
