We Have the Campground to Ourselves! (Life on the Road)

[@lisaseidenkranz3211]

Hey Kelly, That new cast iron pan is really a griddle. Try making your pancakes, grill cheese on it a few times till it seasons. It may hold too much heat for crepes. I've been watching along time, but dont remember you making flour tortillas. That's what my Mom did everyday with her griddle. I have hers now in our camper, but in Iowa too cold to camp. Also, I season my cast iron 2X's a year. I rub crisco shortening all over it, wipe as much off as I can. The put in a low oven. You could just set it next to fire, let it heat up. Be sure they are dry when you out them away. Just a thought. I thought your crepes looked perfect with other pan. I think crepes are a skill to make. Sooo if it's not broken, don't switch pans!🍌🍓

[@judithrupert5730]

Thanks for the info on the name of Corpus👍👍👍..7 years ago my daughter took a 3 month nurse traveling job in Corpus Cristi and I came along to watch my grandson. To this day I miss that place and Padre Island. I live in Ohio now but have lived in AZ and I still say Corpus is the only other place I would like to live. It thrilled me in your closing saying how you have fallen in love with the area. ENJOY!

[@oversizedlizard9285]

Port Aransas- “Port A” is a cool island town, Goose Island State Park in Rockport is also a great park for tent camping and kayaking. If y’all head to the hill country Garner State Park is gorgeous... everything is great in off season, watch out because come March everything is packed! Enjoy your time in my neck of the woods!

[@terrimalek]

We go there every year, Padre Island National Seashore. We camp on the beach when we can, but Malachite Beach is our go to campsite. Love it there! Driving on the beach is a blast!

[@thomaslong422]

Im a long time subscriber frim south Texas, when i saw the mesquite leaves in the beganing of your video, i sat up from my chair. Wait what! So glad ya"ll are enjoying it here. Todays weather just proves, you cant completely out run a badass cold front. Bundle up ya'll.

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Thanks

[@jessys9868]

Watched this again, that’s one thing about your videos, you can watch them several times and each time find something new

[@sonyalargo6439]

Aww 🥰...luv taco's... enjoy

[@fred38178]

Nice place. Thanks for showing it. Greetings from Calgary, Canada 🍁

[@overcomeinone8371]

Do y'all know padre island is the longest barrier island in the world, also sabal palm sanctuary is the southernmost point accessible to the public in texas, might be worth a gander. Just some fun facts, God bless y'all.

[@alexanderweaver7066]

OMG! Even before you mentioned your location I felt a connection. My Air Force buddies and I use to bass fish there in a Bass Tracker. The best way to fish the lakes in South Texas is using an artificial worm lure, let it sink to the bottom and using your wrist gently jerk while reeling in your line. We caught many large mouth bass including one that weighed in at 8 pounds. Another great camping and fishing venue is Choke Canyon and you may see herds of beautiful deer. Actually, there are many lakes within a short drive from San Antonio. If you haven't visited the Riverwalk in San Antonio I highly recommend going...restaurants galore, shopping and touring the Alamo are super enjoyable. Awesome video! Kelly, that breakfast looked awfully good to me.

[@alexanderweaver7066]

One of my buddies parked on the beach in Corpus Christi not realizing that the tide was out. We were enjoying catching channel catfish when Todd turned to look for his Jeep Wrangler. The water was nearly up to the bottom of his door. It was hilarious seeing him trying to run in the rising incoming tide. He was lucky that he checked his Jeep in time.

[@melodygoss9431]

Of course I'm loving the video, but paused it to say, I'd run a pizza cutter through the tacos when they turn out like that. Other food too. Now I'm returning to the excitement you're providing.

[@peterstephenson9360]

That was a great looking frittata!

[@ezovrlnd7469]

Next time you find yourselves at PINS, try to schedule it with the sea turtle hatchling release project(mid Apr-Jun), pretty awesome experience!

[@kendrasmith6637]

Looks like a nice place to stay. Plenty of sunshine ☀️ thanks

[@deannazampa5286]

Been many times! Love Padre Island too, if you want to go to the beach.

[@mariacasanova6284]

Hola Cody and Kellie, you should also come further south to Brownsville, TX (like two hours south of Corpus). You will like it too. There is also South Padre Island like twenty minutes from Brownsville. There's fishing, surfing, water skiing, dolphin watching and so much more. It's also beautiful. Weather is great! I hope you visit! Thanks for the amazing videos. Kellie, thanks for the amazing recipes just simple and delicious!

[@barbarabias5440]

Love this campground. We just got home yesterday from that campground. We were there Wednesday and left Sunday. 😀

[@boonedog1457]

There's my family! You two are like family to us! Great seeing you!

[@jeremyhernandez5496]

It makes my heart happy to see y'all back in Texas!! My wife and I are definitely going to camp on the beach this year!! I"m hoping y'all decide to stay on the beach and show us how nice it is down there.

[@katzcrow640]

Another GREAT VIDEO. Thank you for taking my along on your Journey what a Break from the SNOW then Rain here.. 🌿❤🌻❤🌿 West Coast Canada 🇨🇦

Stay on the beach and give us that awesome experience!

[@michelle_ajema]

What a pretty campground. 😍😍

[@EVERYDAYBEACHLIFE]

Welcome to Corpus Christi guys! Make sure you visit Padre Island and Port A. Hit me up if you guys wanna go fishing! I’m a fellow KZbinr as well.

[@kc0rzw]

No bugs here, but it is -10 in northern Minnesota

[@overcomeinone8371]

Oh I almost forgot about the laguna madre, also worth a gander.

[@marydurgin5654]

Nice I enjoyed Corpus Christi

[@egar4767]

As I write this it’s in the 30’s there. I hope you are staying warm. I have camped many times there. Fish for crappie from the pier. It’s really good fishing and excellent to eat. I’m about two hours away from you.

[@SamSandra4]

How cool!! Just saw you guys passing by.....

[@stevecoyle7418]

Hey Folks, go to Rockport, Tx. .You will love this little sea side town.

[@trburgoz]

I will rename the Camp Taco's to Deconstructed Camp Taco's. Easy to make so I will have to try them.

[@fireside007]

YOU ~ ROCK ! !

[@OldManJimmy1]

And staying in the Texas coast you're not to far from your home Arkansas. We live here and have all our lives and will probably never move from Texas. Enjoy the stay and if you head south from there you can hit Padre Island area or Brownvile Tx it almost never gets cold there for sure.

[@melissarodgers764]

Glad you liked South Texas. It’s heaven on earth.

[@teresacrounse5414]

Cool to know about the name Corpus Christy and the meaning. And yes it's damp cold in Florida in the winter, but can be super warm in the daytime.

[@TracyAMead]

Your videos just make me happy! You both are living your best life! If I was 20 years younger, I'd be living that life! Dome Life = Do Me life! Sending you lots of love for safe travels and health!

[@Rob-od2ei]

OMG that breakfast looks amazing! Save some for me!!!

Looks so peaceful.......my husband and I want to roll back the clock and be you two.......hugs.

[@ladylex16]

I just camped there on January 15th. Love that park.

[@ggarzaigg]

I found your channel because I was searching Texas camping. 👍 I might stop here.

[@janschneider361]

Waaaaay back in the 60’s, we camped on the beach at both Padre Island and Mustang Island. It looks like you can do exactly the same today. We loved, loved those vacations. There were also some cool places to eat in Port Aransas.

[@martinhernandez6506]

Good evening Kellie & Cody, great to see you're enjoying Corpus Christi ! Thanks for sharing another great video ! Glad you had an opportunity to get out on the water & try some fishing. Fishing is more than hooking a fish, the best times are hookin memories ! Given your love for tacos you should treat yourself. Before leaving Texas you should try a Carne Guisada Taco, with some good salsa ! Keep the sand out of your eyes & keep smiling !

[@mikek9537]

She hooked on fishing!!! Get the right baits and some good fishing spots for her Cody!

[@shelleydetects603]

They call it a taco salad just break the taco shell up more. Lol. As long it tastes good, its a win

[@kerrischuh8000]

That’s an interesting way to make tacos. They sound very yummy.

[@stoneyvanwie6042]

So funny to see yall here in Mathis where I live ! Also my Old house was across Doddridge across from the Post. If yall need any suggestions ? Let me knew. Also National Seashore is fun to drive down to Mansfield cut. Great fishing.

[@kellyhays23]

Omg please camp on the beach!!! I need to take the van down to south Texas soon 😍

[@pammohler3253]

Beautiful place

[@tressessalon]

So good to see you all again. My wifi has been limited, but Im all set now, I would love to check out Texas this coming winter😍 Thanks for the info!

[@kennethmoore5629]

Lived in Corpus Christi in 1978, loved the area. Good people, great food. Enjoy 😊

[@hazeleyes2086]

Hi Guys, it's Zero here in Wisconsin, 40 is almost Shorts and flip flop weather. I would love to be taking in some sun with no coat on. Enjoy you guys

[@Chris.Hallock]

Went in tacos, came out nachos. No regrets!

[@marilynalspachtoth5635]

May want to check out beach camping in Port Aransas and kayaking the bay between Port A and Corpus C. We like to kayak that area and watch the dolphins swim around us. We are currently in Brackenridge Camp ground near Edna. It’s a stunning location as well and really peaceful.

[@gracecallowayable]

What a beautiful life!!!👠🚌👠

[@goofsaddggkle7351]

Was about to comment the key to good Texas food is avoid high dollar places because most everywhere is good - then i saw your plates and the food looked amazing lol! So yes always take a locals opinion

[@valerierichardson458]

Your tacos looked delicious! You should have cooked the meat longer or decrease amount of water. Texas has some beautiful camp grounds. I'm even further south and you are and it's now the 22nd and we have some cold weather for us!!

[@kevinbrown3017]

That looked delicious!

[@r28a]

Come up to Dallas and stay at Cedar Hill State Park. They got mountain bike trails (my home trail ) and kayaking, well when it's warm enough. Let me know and I'll be glad to meet up to show you the trail.

[@AngelaJonesPoetryStoriesArt]

What a great spot

[@iktmamafo2133]

There's plenty I don't like in Texas, but they've got a great state park system. Hope you both enjoy!

[@jyrbr9292]

Awesome show and Food

[@mcquade4811]

I’m loving this South Texas series.. if you get a chance, you have to check out Neals Campground in Concan, Texas. Probably the most popular campground we have.. I’d love to see y’all’s opinion of it..

[@GatewoodBrown]

Always nice when the crowds disperse for winter!

[@veeemit9719]

I’ve never had baked tacos. Thanks for the recipe.

[@miketravis3961]

Kelly, look for "valley lemons" esp. south of you. very unique

[@erm4292]

Cody great video framing again and I have good ideas for my next camping trip with the crepes

[@Bob814u]

I figured where you were the other video. It was the trees, picnic table covers, and lake. Funny enough we took our "Family Picture" next to where you two are camping. Good times! Enjoy as much as you as you can.

[@bobbyduncan3903]

Hey guys check out magnolia beach while you guys are this far. Its free showers water.youll love it you can actually see it on u tube.

Yes we’re freezing in Tallahassee right now 🥴😅

Thanks for showing us a little bit of south Texas! I'm from Florida and I've never been to Texas! 😩 It all looked fantastic.

Lots to see in Texas. Lakes are beautiful. Fishing is fantastic. Dallas is so cool. People are warm and welcome visitors.

[@LadywolfT]

Hubs and I enjoyed your live feed. We are fellow Arkansas nomads and we are staying up at Georgetown now, but will be down in that area in a few weeks. We just went to Big Bend and I highly recommend a trip there. It’s a camper/hiker’s paradise. We loved it! Other great COE parks to see are Rayburn park near Jasper, and Rocky Creek at Somerville lake near College Station. Kellie, I’m a foodie who likes to camp cook healthy food, also. 😊

[@judyderieux8484]

Wow.....look forward to what else you do in South Texas✨

[@chucksmith5002]

That`s Camp Kelly Taco`s. In Daytona Beach if I`m still right you can Drive on that Beach but NO Camping. Enjoyed it and stay safe

[@Wiz101Geek]

Correct. It is $20 a day

[@tamelataylor7384]

If it's still like it was 30 years ago you can camp on the beach in Anastasia State Park right by St. Augustine!

[@jamiepittman4855]

Gilchrist state park in Florida. The springs are so beautiful.. Yall should come this way.

[@oaxacachaka]

Not sure how long you will be in TX but there’s a channel called “Secrets of Texas” and this guy goes to all these interesting little Texas towns. He doesn’t necessarily talk about camping but if there is camping in the area and you want to soak up some history check his channel out. I’m planning a Hill Country trip this Spring and will use that channel as my main means of research.

[@frankaleman3321]

Way to go Cody and Kellie to decide to head to South Texas...... Try fishing out in Corpus Christi Bay.....you'll catch so much fish that your arms get tired....lol. I know you're in Mathis, TX. Try Robstown ,TX for some true (hole-in the -wall) Tex-Mex food. Deo-licicious !!! Have fun guys!!

[@moringa-biblereading]

We bought the same camp stove that you are now using. Soon, very soon we will start our camping adventures. We have a Spring trip scheduled in Garner State Park on the Frio River. We've visited Garner before but have never camped there, it is one of those beautiful Texas gems. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@Samantha-Wilkinson]

Are you planning to buy the propane converter?

[@moringa-biblereading]

@@Samantha-Wilkinson Yes, we have already purchased the propane converter to allow us to use the larger tank with the stove.

[@riobravomultimedia4104]

Yall should go fish in corpus, in the bay…lots of speckled trout and redfish….or surf fishing on the beach!!!! it’s taco salad!! You cant use metal utensils in a non stick, like your metal whisk…you need to add silicone utensils for cooking in the nonstick….campwood, Tx for camping on the nueces river sometime….

[@michaeltucker937]

I am from the corpus Christi area. We live in south Georgia now but it's nice seeing home again I'm glad yall like it. There's excellent fishing in Aransas pass

Having basically grew up in That area, we called Costal Bend. Fished, camped & hung out at That lake quite bit, years back. The National Park didn't exist, when I use to go That area. We would travel to areas known as Big & Little Shell, fishing. BIL use to have a Bay cabin on Baffin Bay.

[@spiritsinthewind1]

Hi Kellie and Cody , Welcome to Tejas ! Corpus Cristi Lake is Beautiful , Thank You for sharing All your Awesome Adventures . If your thinking about place's to go next , I recommend Pace Bend Park on Lake Travis in Spicewood Texas . It's an Awesome place to Camp and Explore the Tejas Hill Country . It's a State Park with scenic camping sites along the cliffs overlooking the lake , and miles of sandy shores . It's an excellent place to set up camp , kayak , ride your bikes on the many trails , take some drone footage . not to mention the beautiful sunsets . Thanks Again an Safe Travels

[@gumotx]

I am glad you are enjoying Texas state parks. Their annual pass easily pays for itself if you plan on staying a while. Enjoy your stay in Texas!

[@trisha948]

Glad yall made it to my Hometown!!! yes the water is beautiful and much warmer in the summer months. It is always windy in Corpus except when you need it the most - in hot July and August. Its also very humid most of the time. You can camp for free anywhere on the beach and if yall went a little further you would have run into big and little shell (need a 4 wheel drive for that but the water is deeper, youll find lots of shells ( at least it used to be that way) and fishing is good since it gets very deep around the first sandbar. Of course always be aware there are sharks in the water - Ive only run across a few in my lifetime but they are there. I hope yall checked out the fantastic mexican food plus Water Street Oyster Bar downtown. And if you've never been to San Antonio Tx and the hill country, more good food there and camping in the hill country. BTW - great videos!

[@Mocking69]

The vast campsite is wonderful ♪

[@reneepowell8541]

Glad you guys are enjoying the Texas Gulf coast and will decide to try out dispersed camping on Padre, it's the best! Magnolia Beach is another nice spot, often less wind there but not as big of a beach and not wild like Padre. Phenomenal video, it's really nice to tag along and see how your lifestyle has a mix of off-the-grid camping, established campgrounds, hiking, kayaking, road touring, camp cooking and fine (but never ostentatious) dining. Safe travels!

[@catherinearaiza7154]

Corpus Christi lake park is beautiful!. It has great fishing and camp grounds. I live in San Antonio but have gone to Corpus and surrounding area since I was little. Love going to Corpus bay areas and Port Aransas is just a hope skip away with the beach!. There is camping on the beach. And driving on it to. Have fun down here in south Texas and be safe!
