[@cathybryant3029]

Got quite a chuckle out of the 3 bald guys!!🤣🤣

[@Weretherussos]

We’re a fun bunch 😎

[@edwardwoods5977]

That was excellent. I would be interested.

[@TonyPhillips-jy7ev]

Way cool and welcoming back from Italy

[@jeffinphoenix]

Love it! I can’t believe I’ve never been given I’m so close!

[@Weretherussos]

Oh you should go make a day of it. See Tombstone and then pop over there

[@karenallen7064]

Mane'esh! Oh! Memories of Beruit! There was a shop just downstairs & across the street from us. Best breakfast/Brunch ever. Tried some in Amman & it wasn't the same.

[@Weretherussos]

We love that stuff!

[@ML-ws6ce]

Otis looks as protectiv as our Am Staff Lady Nina😂

[@Weretherussos]

Lol he’s a good pup

[@monihamam901]

Yeah that’s was great thank you

[@jerrycornelius3397]

What fun!

[@joycetomczyk8892]

Bisbee is great. There are I believe 4 different types of architectural style in the buildings there. When I first visited in ‘05 I thought of it as a hippie artsy town with its mining town/west past. A great experience .

[@heidijay5902]

Otis is seriously the best looking dog I’ve ever seen, just gorgeous.😍

[@patrickdejoseph8174]

Weird Wild West in Bisbee Arizona sounds wonderful. I like these events. Thanks for tour of Bisbee.

[@kerkleblanc7690]

Outstanding video, Thanks

[@dlg5485]

My friend had a pit bull named Otis, the sweetest dog I've ever met. And yes, I'd love to attend this event. Looks like a ton of fun.

[@Weretherussos]

That it was!

[@lynfl9814]

That looked like a fun time. Weird, in a fun way.

[@Weretherussos]

[@Weretherussos]

[@scottthejeepguy7499]

Looks like a lot of fun. Love it love the Russos. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@mrmosk2011]

Looks like van camping becomes more popular.

[@asifadeni]

Wow. Thanks for sharing your experience

[@TonyPhillips-jy7ev]

Ugh want see more

[@robertabrams8562]

[@NoProGoPronto]

I love the space helmet Kait. The WWW looks like a blast! Good food, good friends and sunshine. What more can you ask for in life?

[@michaelclark9134]

@We're the Russos That was some good times...Joy and I were just talking about going down there on our own again and exploring the town further on a more lowkey weekend...lol

[@Weretherussos]

That it was! Great meeting in person

[@joeybobbie1]

That would be somewhere I would definitely have to go to. I’m surprised I’ve never heard of it. Looks like at lot of fun with all the weird Shops. Definitely on my bucket list. Thanks for bringing us along.👍👍

[@leod1671]

Fun video, That event looks like something I would love to experience. That said, it is a long drive from South Florida.

[@Weretherussos]

Just have to make a fun trip out of it. Take the southern route over and then head north on the way back. Lots to see!

[@Thomas-qk7wf]

That was great. Thanks. Just added it to our bucket list... lol

[@Weretherussos]

Send us a note when you go and tell us what you thought. Tombstone is right around the corner so plan to spend a little time there too

[@Thomas-qk7wf]

@@Weretherussos If I remember correctly, there’s a fellow KZbin creator that owns a motel in Bisbee. A motorcycle travel photographer. Motorcycle Travel Channel. He helps with a lot of the photography for the BDR series of motorcycle adventure videos as well.

[@seekingjoynow1722]

Bisby is a cute town. Seems like a fun event. Thumbs up button not working.😮

[@j.patrickmoore9137]

that looks like total fun - thanks for the video! I had never heard of Bisbee, but then again, there's probably more places that I haven't heard of, than the ones I have heard of.

[@Weretherussos]

It’s well worth a visit if you’re ever in AZ

[@karenr67]

Looked like a fun place to explore

[@JimBurwellsPetiquetteHouston]

total fun, fun, fun. I'd be there in a new york minute with or without an rv!!

[@musicmarlene]

great video….We have been to Bisbee while living in Flagstaff. i highly recommend Joe’s books….good reads, page turners. i have read each twice.

[@kellygee1678]

Awww....just ran across your channel AGAIN!! I watched you guys back in your early KZbin years (2017?, maybe?). It's soooooo nice to see again!!! It feels like running into old friends along this journey we call life!

[@Weretherussos]

Welcome back! Man it’s been a while! Hope all has been well.

[@susananderson618]

Another great video....enjoyed following your adventures, you two are so enjoyable to watch! Been following you for a LONG time.

[@marxanpescetta2298]

Yes, I would live it! It'son the list

[@darrellbrixey5341]

Awesome video guys, thanks

[@VanDoghies]

Bisbee was quite the vibe! It was great briefly meeting both of you :) Hoping to cross paths again down the road! Love the shoutout to Pete and Evelyn!

[@Weretherussos]

Looking forward to it!

[@midcenturykat9829]

This looks SO fun! Thanks for the great video! I'm going to come out and meet you someday! 😊

[@Weretherussos]

Looking forward to it

[@mickeydyke392]

Joe, you should have bought the hat. It really suited you. I’ve only been to Bisbee during monsoon season when the streets turn to rivers. Glad you had a good time.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Mickey. After watching the footage and seeing the hat again I think I may try to find it

[@Baguawitch]

more beautiful Kait videos ~ lucky guy you are

[@keyplayer5]

What a fun time you two had. Good friends and lots to do! I’d like to check that town out sometime! Can’t wait till your next stop. 💕

[@Weretherussos]

Definitely go. Tombstone is right around the corner and a fun stop

[@mickylawless1941]

I love Bisbee. It's got such a great vibe. Just remember Joe, god made a few perfect heads, the rest were covered with hair.

[@Weretherussos]

Lol - love it Micky, thank you!

[@mendyedson1825]

That was really interesting. I loved the mine and the fact it keeps history alive. It was weird. Take care of yourselves and safe travels

[@bonniepwtf]

Looks like a good time was had by all!

[@Weretherussos]

That it was

[@lrobie123]

nice to have you all back. Nothing better than an out west adventure with the vans...

[@Weretherussos]

Very true, Thank you!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Wow this is awesome, just subscribed I’ll be watching for more I’m a camper

[@rickbranham4557]

that looked like a blast !

[@wendyfilice7101]

I would love to join this event.

[@Percy_VanVentures]

We’re picking up our new Transit Van the end of next month and I was wondering about how the Van community connects. Thank you so much for the Link! Much appreciated!

[@Weretherussos]

You're very welcome! Here's a list of various events and expos around the van/overlanding space: weretherussos.com/overland-expos-events/

[@amydelpiere9315]

Looked like a great little town! I don't know what you were going to do in Baja, but what a great detour. I love how you adopted a dog for the afternoon Joe. Fun stuff - thanks for sharing.

[@Weretherussos]

You're very welcome Amy - glad you enjoyed it!

[@bretthawton]

This event looks beyond amazing!!!

[@Weretherussos]

Well worth the trip

[@dougdekuiper3194]

Did that mine tour as well. Worth the time. 👍

[@nita-uk1ew]

Looks like loads of fun!❤❤

[@gosmall.livelarge]

joe… hat shopping… hopefully you bought that handsome black cowboy style hat!? Bisbee was over the top awesome. Cannot wait until W3 2024 with the WTR and GSLL folks :)

[@DanTaylor89]

Great to see you two in Bisbee, even though I had to park in one of those less desirable spots. Hope you continue to enjoy your travels as much as we do, and thanks for sharing the stories!

[@Weretherussos]

Same! Hope to see you at some other events!

[@julesl7679]

[@slporter]

A new city to add to my stop list! Thank you!

[@Weretherussos]

[@ROLLMEAWAY]

Looks like my kind of party! all I need is a VAN!!!

[@Weretherussos]

Nah everyone is welcome. Stay in a hotel room, no one would care

[@tomsaylor6778]

That hat looked good on you Joe.

[@sandrafuqua1338]

Looks like a great time!!

[@alvinmousseau1100]

Awesome video

[@goththicus]

What? I live close to Bisbee. How did I miss this event. Bisbee is a old town rich with history. Did you visit the Lavender pit?

[@Weretherussos]

Im surprised you missed it! We didn’t get to the lavender pit or Lowell

[@Tangoisinthesouth]

Fun time!!

[@conniewaite1371]

That did look like fun!

[@andrerenee4734]

This video was too short. You guys rock! 👌🏾

[@goththicus]

Did you go to Lowell? Classic cars and motorcycles.

[@jaycast1386]

I'm happy to see you guys again on the adventure, thanks Joe for the story teller shirt you gave me at san juan capistrano, ca event I notice in this video you were wearing one of those shirts too, cool have a wonderful week I m waiting for the next video, forever your friend: F.

[@jaycast1386]

I'm happy that she loves my present I gave to her from my heart and with all respect to her and to you, thanks again , for be part of the life and inspiration of many people and families out there. ; )

[@richarduphoff1745]

Been to Bisbee once - what a great, funky little town! I hope they’re still doing the Soap Box Derby race

[@Weretherussos]

I believe they are. We saw some of the older “boxes” in someone’s yard

[@seabliss22]

Kate's got the ladies swinging so freely they look like they hurt 🤣. I've never been to an ice cream tasting. Did you get more footage of it? Would love to know how it went and if it's something you would do again.

[@Weretherussos]

That’s hilarious 😂 The ice cream tasting was a lot of fun. Definitely a fun thing to set up at parties, etc because it works for all ages

[@LuckyLarry]

Bisbee is the BEST!!!

[@christinawilcke8060]

Great Town lived not to far from there, Sierra Vista long ago...lol

[@missy4cdts]

Thank you for sharing 😊

[@Weretherussos]

[@source5729]

[@johnwilliamson9453]

Nice, WEIRD vlog, hope to see you in Flag!

[@Weretherussos]

Sorry John - we won’t be in Flag this year. Enjoy the show!

[@donb.puryearjr.8699]

As a future van-rv owner, another beautiful, we'll prepared vlog. The only thing I disliked is I have to wait for your next one😊......hope to meet you guys on the road one day...

[@Weretherussos]

Look forward to it Don. Good luck finding the right van-RV!

[@markreynolds3850]

👍👍 thanks guys for the weird video.

[@Weretherussos]

Our pleasure!

[@GailNott]

That looks like a lot of fun! Any families there or was it all adults?

[@Weretherussos]

Mostly adults. I don't remember seeing kids and I would say that there are some events that may not be considered kid friendly but the camping areas would be good as long as you don't mind people partying at night.

[@garretlewis4103]

You guys will be glad to know that this video was weird. 🤪🤪🤪👽👽👽.

[@qn9406]

Sad we missed you in Bisbee. Question: what are the solar panels that you have? Does it often keep you topped off? How many watts?

[@hamadahmed5836]

[@Weretherussos]

Sorry Becky - only in person. If you own a copy and you see me, I’d be happy to sign it

[@BretSnyder]

Did you buy the Stetson?

[@Weretherussos]

Nope - wasn’t willing to spend the $160 for it

[@Skal_AZ]

Looks like a fun event. We’re beginners, or would we find out about those events?

[@Weretherussos]

[@Patrick_Ross]

Glad to see Baja was cancelled. I wouldn’t venture south of the border for anything! Bisbee….my favorite town in the Southwest!

[@Weretherussos]

It’s very cool. I also really enjoy Jerome which has a similar vibe but is much smaller

[@wolfrv695]
