Rodney has turned out to be such a well-rounded, happy little man!! Great job Nikki!!❤

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Thank you!!!

[@wyioughta]

hes such a perfect little brother lol

[@K.A.R.Y.O.N]

Omg losing my mind over how cute little Rodney is, such a happy good boy. I’m so glad you adopted him and give him this family and this life. It just warms my heart to see these two boys running and playing and wagging tails. Dogs are the best.

[@kvstrickland]

One of our baby puppers died last night. All I’m thinking about now is spoiling the other one and car camping all summer … taking him to see the ocean… the forest .. mountains. Ive never cried so many tears .. ✌️❤️🐕

[@NikkiDelventhal]

I am so sorry. sending you all the love and support! I can tell from your message you have them a great life full of love and memories ❤️

[@kvstrickland]

@@NikkiDelventhal I sure tried to. Dogs are my favourite people. ✌️❤️🤘🐕 Haven’t watched the episode yet… save it for when my face doesn’t hurt anymore 😢

[@mikeydog1000]

I'm so sorry for the loss of your pup. I lost my heart four years ago she was 10, she had cancer. Then a mouth ago the other lady that lives on the road that I watch alot lost her beautiful boy Blue. 💙 also died to lymphoma cancer. I think you have a great idea. Go and enjoy your pup. Travel and see the world. Blessings to you and your pup.😢❤

[@kvstrickland]

Oh my Gosh...Camper's enthusiasm digging at the end doing a 180 and back to digging!! So Joyful all of you!

[@swellkristi]

What a great video Nikki! I love all the history and how natural you are with explaining it. I don’t know how you haven’t gotten a travel show on a network yet, but I definitely see one in your future. 😊

[@mrossie747]

Finally, it's Friday. Since discovering your channel a month ago, I've watched all your videos and eagerly await your new content. Among the many van life creators out there, you stand out as the best. I appreciate your personality, sense of humor, and the entertaining content you create. I'm also a fan of Sarah. By the way, you, Camper, and Rodney are a perfect match. Safe travels!

[@NikkiDelventhal]

Thank you!!!!

[@RobHellfire666]

You watched ALL the videos!?? Wow. Good job! 👍🏻 I discovered this awesome channel a couple weeks ago, and I'm roughly halfway through the cat-o- log. This channel is definitely addictive 😎

[@mrossie747]

I certainly did! My husband, I, and eight friends have traveled to 158 countries in the last twenty-seven years. We were never home. Then, last year, my husband passed away, and I sunk into a deep depression. I stopped traveling and hanging out with family and friends. I couldn't move on without my husband. A few months ago, my neighbor was cleaning his 4x4 Sprinter, and I thought I might get one and travel around the USA. I did a lot of searching, and then I stumbled upon Nikki's channel. I love her personality, energy, and sense of humor. And her love and patience for Camper and Rodney. So yes! She, Camper, and Rodney gave me a new lease on life. Thank you Nikki, Camper and Rodney. ❤️❤️❤️

Rodney’s little face when he was tucked in 🥰

[@Banagal]

I love watching Camper and Rodney run, dig, and have fun. They both have happy, smiling eyes and faces. Well done, Nikki. That was some Western town history going there.

[@Iriepixie]

I love when you go for the hike with the doggies and you get this incredible epic shot from behind them and overlooking the view. You used the dogs to frame the view and it was absolutely breathtaking! Loved that shot!! Always love your videos, always sending love ❤️ ✌🏻

Awesome video as always Nikki, Camper and R.V. Y’all always find an explorer the most interesting place. Thanks for letting us ride along with y’all on y’all’s adventures.

[@jennyfulcher8035]

Beautiful scenery. I especially loved the one-organism Aspen grove. The Cowboy Museum looked like fun too. Camper and Rodney digging away in the sand demonstrated how much fun the boys were having on the dunes!

[@ClayFranklin]

Thank you for sharing. We used to drive that way every summer. My relative owned a stamp mill in Unionville. That’s where they crush the rocks to get silver and gold out. On the other side of my family, If you haven’t done it yet, it might be fun to drive the Mormon trail and imagine how it would be on foot. Lots of history there. My relative William Clayton was on the journey and invented the odometer so he could track their progress. I think he fixed the wagons during the day and buried people at night. But he made it and was the clerk of the Brigham Young company and wrote the words to “Come Cone, ye saints”. Thank you for sharing your journey and all these incredible places. ❤

[@XenaTheQuadCamBikah]

What a beautiful camping spot! Rodney is a sweet addition to the Delventhal family! He can hike because of the great food you feed them both! Love the channel Nikki I’m a fan for life! ✌️

[@m.rebeccabyrd739]

I love seeing how Rodney's personality and confidence are evolving. You've done such a good job! And he's doing awesome with meals now -what a good boy!

I used to live in Nevada and I love that you take me back to my old spots that I would do on a day drive. Rodney and Camper steal the show though with their happiness of living such a great life with such a great dog mom. Great video.

[@LCLand]

People say I’m the best dog mom. There are many of us I say. You’re one of them. The adventures you provide along with the best love and care is truly wonderful to see. From one amazing dog mom to another. 😄 Cheers and Godspeed! ♥️🥂🩵 🐾✝️

[@audreytaylor2298]

Hey Nikki. Amazing video. Excellent footage & picture quality . 110% Thanks. 👏 You can tell Rodneys confidence is growing. He walks taller. Just much more confident…he’s really coming out of his shell. Can feel the love. Well done for adopting him. Excellent editing. A joy to watch. 😍x UK

Wow! Living all the time at Campers side, little Rodney is sure growing into a capable companion - maintaining a brisk pace and jumping up into the van like an old pro!

[@trueloveingod2691]

I love how the boys have grown together. So cute. I see that Camper likes to snuggle under the covers but he shouldn’t actually sleep that way. Oxygen is extremely important to the brain, body, and also to prevent decay of the teeth. You got such great visuals out there, beautiful scenery, interesting history too. Thank you for another inspiring episode. Love you and the pups: Camper Van Delventhal and Rodney Valentine Deventhal. You’re giving them a great life.

[@majflip6610]

I have a friend that lives in Battle Mountain & she has been complaining about the crickets 🦗 for a month now! She lives on a ranch & they are over run with them! If you see Amy tell her Flip says hi! 💞

[@hermit6501]

Dry weather limits the spread of fungi that kill cricket eggs. That's why there is a plague.

[@laurenm8561]

That was such a beautiful sunset location. It’s great to see Rodney off lead .... he is definitely forever yours (lock)♥️. I don’t know why, but the name Winnemucca makes me giggle. Thanks again for the great video. 🌻🐝🧡

I lived in Wendover for 8 years while my husband worked on different sections of the interstate starting in 1971. Went to see the baby pigs for entertainment. Oh my god what a place. My oldest daughter was born in Winnemucca my youngest was born in Elko.

I have never searched for any camping or van life videos before. So I have no idea how I was recommended your channel. But I am utterly blown away by your multitasking skills! And you clearly work your ass off too. It's incredibly impressive what you do. Safe journeys for you and the dogs!

Your videos make my Friday and start my weekend off perfectly. Love the history you bring us and the beautiful and interesting places you take us. You have trained Camper and Rodney so well, they are so good. Rodney has really grown and not just in size, he keeps up with Camper and nothing phases him. They were so funny digging in the sand, especially Camper doing a twirl lol. You are so lucky going to bed with your cute dogs, I miss saying goodnight to mine, Camper all curled up at the bottom of the bed and Rodney on his back against the pillow, just the cutest x

I've driven through Battle Mountain and Winnemuca a couple of times on my trips from Arizona to Washington state. Stopped at a casino in Winnemuca to winabucka. Those are Mormon crickets and they usually infest that area east of you towards Elko during the dry season. I've seen them south near Austin and they literally cover the roads like a blanket.

[@jessehughes7333]

Currently hunkering down in Wells Nevada. Drove up into The East Humboldt Mountains this afternoon. Ridiculous beauty! Where the desert meets the tundra! Beautiful aspen grove area as well.

[@thebrianaandronnieshow]

We had to run through the Mormon Crickets when traveling through Elko on 6/12/2024. We are now back in Alabama and still have cricket guts all over the wheel wells of our rig. When traveling through Nevada we always try to keep a look out for you !!!!

[@kurtburkhardt5862]

Love watching your travels with your dogs. We are finally going to go on our first long trip in our camper (with our cat Sammy). We have learned a lot watching your channel. We always car camped before using a ground or awning tent. Will be so luxurious having AC, heat and trailer amenities. We do have a 4Runner (our tow vehicle) with a fridge, power and dual batteries so didn't suffer before...

[@monical4306]

My little guy in the pic, Chopper, is from Paws for Life. K9 Rescue. I've had him 3 months. He's the bestest boy! It's been fun watching both our new dogs find their groove (and themselves) in new homes! You were inspirational in my decision to adopt! 💜💜💜💜

[@steveh5335]

Nikki, I'm so sorry for your loss of your beautiful grandmother. My deepest sympathies to you and your family. But even when you try to "prepare" yourself and expect something as sad and emotional in the passing of a loved one to happen, it can still be so very hard to accept and it always, always hurts. Time is there, take it. And such a thoughtful, personal yet respectful tribute to your Grandmother's memory, Nikki, in your own words(IG). She sounded like one Great Lady. Take Care Nikki. Steve.

[@vanessavandervalk1084]

Love your adventures Nikki! 😍🙌💖

[@taxfree4]

Passed Winnemucca on July 8th 2015 on a cross country motorcycle trip. By the next town, Mill City I was caught in a storm that was so bad deputy sheriffs shut down the interstate. Hail, like I've never seen, rain and WIND. I was able to go back to Winnemucca when it died down. Sun was out, sprinklers were on, crazy weather. Best thing about Wendover is you can stand in Utah and Nevada at the same time as the state lines run right down in between.

[@terenzo50]

Camper and Rodney digging in the sand is just too good! My salads are quite like your salads -- now with beautiful fresh strawberries since they're in season. I do a kind of guacamole salad dressing which you wouldn't think works, but it does. Stay lovely, you three!
