They have friends out there and fell in love with Arizona so much that they decided to relocate from the east. I’m so excited for what the future holds and am looking forward to the videos from Arizona!! God bless you both 🥰🙏

    Congrats on the new internship! You really do need to get out and enjoy life, and what it has to offer! I told my son this years ago,and since then he has traveled to Florida, and lived in a Toyota Camry in the Keys. He ended up in Peru for a few months looking for gold (no luck)! All before he was 30.

    Congratulations to you and to you two for being a strong couple. You won’t regret it one bit. Our daughter went from Georgia to Maui for her internship and worked with endangered birds. (Not the glamorous part of Maui, but gorgeous) It’s been 7 years now and life has taken her other places. It’s hard, but so worth it. She and her boyfriend stayed together as well. Good Luck and we are looking forward to seeing some Arizona videos!

    congradulations on your internship at the most beautiful area in the us. I volunteered with the forest service there years ago and you will love it. town itself is clean, lots of restaurants and the forest is pristine along with streams. great trout fishing and wonderful people within the forest system. they did have someone killed by a bear in 2023 sitting and drinking coffee at his campsite but you are experienced . I really can't think of any future that I would ever want more than what you are doing. you will never become rich money wise but think of the memories and fun you will have are waaay better. wishing you the best sincerely.....

    Hi y'all. I love your videos and I am excited for you both. I live across from the Little Buffalo River. It used to be a sweet spot but the younger folk who own the land around it have made it an eyesore in the last year, made a damn of sorts and the water is not running as it should. I am so heartbroken.

    Jonathan, I'm super excited to hear you are moving to my great state 48 for a few months! Congrats! If you're looking for a future with the forest service AZ is 'the' best place to be! We have crazy wildfires in the summer months, BUT amazing weather in our norther parts like Payson! So WELCOME! I hope to run into you and Erica while you're out here. Payson is the best of two weathers in AZ. It gets a bit warm, maybe just a little over 100 some summer days, but most of the time stays cool, especially in the winter when there is snow there! That's why many of our snowbird retirees choose Payson, warm in the summer but never too frigid like the northern parts of our country. Enjoyed this vlog and thanks for sharing! Also, since its June now I assume you have moved out here to Payson already??

  • @kgsavedbyfaithgrace1603

    Congrats on everything! Definitely stay in prayer!
    Maybe you should send some of that prayer in Holy Spirit led to your sister and brother-in-law's way. I used to watch them and I commented about the small amount of apparel your sister started wearing more and more. I asked your brother-in-law why he's even filming his wife like that and from them angles and putting them for everybody to see. Needless to say they took my comment down and blocked me... Although I pray for them, I also have marked and avoided them as the Bible says. I can guarantee what they're showing on their channel is far from what God has attended for us, especially after someone points it out.
    God bless you and yours and all my brothers and sisters! Stay strong in the Lord, he is all that matters!

    Congratulations on the new job! That wasn’t the only announcement I was anticipating, but all in good time. You have lit a small spark of a fire in me to learn to Kayak. Between your hike on Big Bluff and now seeing it from the river, you (and Erica) have inspired me to visit AR. Once I get a 4Runner and now I want a Kayak, I’m coming to visit. Very much looking forward to content from AZ, one of my favorite western states. Thanks. -Chris🏔️🚙

      His brother in law & sister (Cody and Kellie with dome life) inspired my husband and I to go to the ozark mountains in AR. We spent a week there for our honeymoon and loved every single second of it!
      Cody and Kellie actually inspired us to tent camp and we also love it!
      We have also been wanting to get into kayaking lately because of them.
