Boondocking on SOUTH PADRE ISLAND, Texas!! Getting Stuck in the sand 28 miles up the Beach!!

[@rebeccasteckelberg9758]

Being 80 yrs old I can say your hubby is so cute and so are you. I just love your photography. My husband and. I stayed there years ago in high top van. So thanks

[@scb0421]

The video of the Gulf was amazing. I cant tell you how many nights I have fallen asleep to that sound. I grew up in San Antonio but we often went to Corpus Christi as a kid. But later I lived in Corpus and the Rockport area for a time. But it has been 11 years since I waded into those Gulf waters. Thank you!

[@mitzyannalee3942]

I lived in Brownsville my whole life, but now I'm only 20 min. away from South Padre. I don't go to SPI often anymore but I pretty much grew up on that beach! My dad would take us to camp out very often! Glad you got to visit and experience the beautiful beach❤

Hello from Squaw Lake Northern MN. It was 10 degrees out this morning when I got up today. I came across your video and thought it would be fun to watch, my husband and I were down there 3 months Feb to April and had the best time. We stayed at the K.O.A Park in our RV. We had an incredible time celebrating our retirement, Birthday ( his ) our Anniversary, Holy Week, a wonderful Easter. The Catholic church on the main land was beautiful. We felt welcomed there, as they had a LOT of Seasonal members. I subscribed to your channel today, and look forward to seeing what's next. Take care and God Bless ! Happy Easter to everyone.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Thank You for saying this. We were criticized for adding the warning at the beginning of this video. We would feel terrible if something happened because some one saw our video and went to one of these locations. I glad you are okay and nothing bad happened.

[@memeking5376]

@@oneadVANtureatatime It was late in the afternoon so we were on alert all night and until we left the next morning. One of my friends lives at a remote RV park not too far from Sassabe. He said this has been almost a daily occurrence for the past few months. Apparently, some of the men at the RV park are now patrolling the acreage on 4-wheelers with hopes of deterring any further intrusions. You were smart and considerate to post the warning. If you see something, say something.

As always hats off for going for it. I am surprised you didn’t let air out when you decided to drive the sand. Lacking your derring-do I am getting a front winch installed this week on the Promaster, Michael’s Folly I call it, to save our backsides when I get over enthusiastic. I hope I never have to use it. For sand I got a Deadman to use with it. Always wanted my own dead man... keep inspiring us to push the boundaries please.

But driving by the Space X was really interesting. The 2nd rocket was delayed twice I think, we could wait around. It would have been really cool to see.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

I know!! It was scary at first but if you stayed right by the water it was fine. But as soon as you pulled away from the water.....we are going to try a new method we learned for airing down our tires which should help. The front wheel drive is what really hinders us from driving in the sand.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

+Lynda Smith thank you! We were so surprised we made it that far down the beach!!! After making it half way there we knew we had to go the whole way! It was a HUGE accomplishment for “storm trooper” (that’s the vans name) which kinda ties in with the little figure hanging from the window. We are Star Wars fans.... so Dave bought us little figurines to hang, he has a storm trooper and I have “Ray” from the newer Star Wars..... just for fun! We have this discussion about why he bought a storm trooper? That is the wrong side of the rebellion!!!! Dave laughs😃 then that leads immediately into “why did you name the van storm trooper?” He says “ I like storms, the van looks like a storm trooper..... therefore the name “storm trooper”! And I (Carrie) day again..... that is the wrong side of the rebellion! And then to be a brat I call the van “Vanna White” 😂😂

[@dandial3733]

That's a beautiful spot. My in-law live in Harlingen do we've spent a lot of time down there. Make sure you clean your van very well when you leave the area, especially the under carriage. The salt content in the water in the Laguna Madre is much higher than in the ocean. It will cause major rust if you don't get it rinsed off.

Hello. First, great video and excellent photography. What kind of roof rack do you have? Could you attach your roof rack to the van without putting holes in the roof? Any advice or recommendations are appreciated. Thank you.

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

Hi Wayne! Our roof rack is made by Topper and we ordered it through AmericanVan.com. The mounts hook to anchors right on the roof so there is no holes in the van. Ours is made of galvanized steel and was 400 dollars plus shipping and handling. We bought extra heavy duty mounts as only 4 come with the kit. We have 8 mounts and can handle over 750 lbs . We love this rack. Make sure you check out the shipping cost as we have heard it can be high.

Hi Jeff and Patti! We are currently in Oklahoma heading to Louisiana in the next week. Let us know if your heading our way, we can meet up. 😀

@@oneadVANtureatatime heyyyyy! Just headed back out on the road today heading to Mammoth Cave & Hot Springs, and the further south & west. But get this: I’m wearing my One Advanture At A Time for the very first time! 💙

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

We have yet to run into anyone wearing our gear yet! That would be awesome if you guys were the first. 😎 Very cool of you guys! We are honored by your kindness. 😀😀😀

Would chains help you in the sand? Thanks

[@oneadVANtureatatime]

+MrAndycm we don’t think chains would help.... in fact it might make it worse. You want to stay on top of the sand and chains would help you dig down.

I was in west Texas along the Rio Grande River border at the beginning of this month before heading to Brownsville and SPI for a week. Thankfully, I was leaving as the illegal immigrants and their COVID-19 cases surged that area. Moved up to La Grange and Lake Tawanoki for my reaming time in Texas before heading to northeast Alabama - just in time for a St. Patty's Day of tornados and flash flooding! Happy to report the Jasper/Arely area were spared and I'm now enjoying my exploration of Bankhead National Forest. HAPPY TRAILS!!!
