[@Marielle_F98]

Lovely to see there is still so much kindness in this world! Living in a country (Rep of Ireland) where we have Pancake Tuesday with pancake themed activities instead of Mardi Gras it was wonderful seeing all the parades and decorated porches as well as hearing all about this fun celebration and this lovely town 🙂

[@ChristineMeachum]

...but I love a good pancake too! 😋 Thanks for watching and commenting! 😃🙏🏼

What a great place to stay! I was born in Pensacola.. Then we moved to Prentiss Mississippi.. After years of moving around the southern states, ended up in Northern Louisiana. But there's absolutely no place like the Gulf Coast. I love everything about it! 🏖️🩴🌴🌊 Safe travels and happy trails! 🛣️

[@ChristineMeachum]

Thank you so much Laurie!!! 😃🙏🏼

[@WellSea7]

My first observations is you need a Toyota......and be careful in Mobile, its not as safe as everyone thinks and never down town.. love your videos...

[@TonyBar323]

Hands down you have the best videos! I really like the history you tell about all the places you go and see.

[@ChristineMeachum]

I appreciate the kind words! 😃Thank you so much! 🙏🏼

[@citigirlcountrified1927]

All of these little blessings are the Lord watching over you. Yeshua loves you and angels do His work

[@louisaisthankful4603]

I am SO THANKFUL that a nice person was there just in time to help you! You still got to see the parade and get beads 💜 Busy, fun day🤩 I should have watched the whole video before posting... what an auto adventure 🤑😆 Happy ending 💜💛 Yay🎉🎊

[@ChristineMeachum]

The car trouble was an adventure for sure! 😆 It all ended up ok though! I am blessed! Thanks for watching and commenting!!! 😃🙏🏼

Thank you! I try! 😃

That was one hell of a 24 hours who said there is no such thing as a free lunch🐕

[@Maddiehere89]

I stayed at my daughters house in Spanish Fort and we went to the Joe Cain parade and several other parades. We also went to Tomme’ store too! I had so much fun!! My first Madi Gras too. But it won’t be my last one!

[@Michael-nt1hq]

Mardi Gras Godzilla baby 😂! You Crack me up!! Great video. You and Chase are quite the party animals. 🥳

[@ChristineMeachum]

I'm glad it made you chuckle 😆 Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

[@bobmoss4016]

$800 or so for an alernator for a Honda Accord 100,000 miles or so,.... of course i was 150 miles from home...I headed home and hit something on the highway ...nothing major but have to be towed 100 miles home... $1200 of damage..luckily nothing major but a few new pipes and oil pan ....insurance covered most expenses...ughhh...ended up having 3 tows in like 3 days!

[@rickycooley3261]

FYI, the little grey stud sticking out of your fuse box is where you clip your red cable. You clip the black to the spot that says "gnd". Nothing has to be removed to do that. They designed it that way for that exact reason

[@footballfan7771]

I am really late reading this but was going to tell her the same thing! I have the same battery in my equinox and it's a pain to replace or to figure how to jump it the first time. 810 dollars to replace alternator and oil change? That has to be 150 dollars an hour! At least!😮

[@shannonblouse2840]

@@footballfan7771 I'm also super late but I've never seen a battery that you can't get to before. That seems insane. I see @rickycooley3261 has the solution but...wow! 😳

[@deehowe8650]

I’m so glad God made things come together for you in getting your car fixed. He’s in the small details as well as the big. Banana moon pies are the bomb!🍌🍌🍌

[@newname2600]

Just discovered your channel. It seems quite interesting. I think you might have paid too much for the alternator and labour; however, you didn't have much choice. 👍

[@rchambers1993]

People within an hours radius literally close jobs, business, doctors offices, etc close early during those weeks. Some you can't get an appointment that week. School also let out early during these times also..

[@douglasbows7720]

So sorry you had car problems but y should be good for a while now. So nice everyone helped you out. Nice video on the parade.I like Alabama thinking of moving there from florida once again nice video. Enjoy your journey happy travels no more car problems

[@scottidw8415]

I feel for you. You shouldn't have been charged that much for an alternator usually $400- Good luck to you sweetheart

[@SarahLynnShiver]

Just found your channel! I am from South Alabama. Thanks for featuring our Mardi Gras!

[@babeequeenuniversity7559]

The girl at the end of the video waving 👋🏾 goodbye was cute & funny😂🎉🎉❤

[@paulmold2388]

Chase is lovely I hope you find it great on your travels I think your fantastic 🇬🇧

[@rchambers1993]

Wow.. so close.. good times in Mobile! I'm about an hour from there!

[@kcaviatrix]

It makes me scared that a car was designed to prevent jumping the battery without tools.

[@mirp5497]

Southern gentlemen still exist Be friendly and nice to all It may be your daughter , sister or wife Great video Love seing all the great people in this world 🌎

[@mirp5497]

Loved the porch decorations 🎉

[@ChristineMeachum]

Well said!

[@tedphillips2951]

Looks like a fun time except for the alternator. AAA as saved my butt several times on the road might want to look into it

[@bobbyj3701]

You're a Rock Star in the KZbin world... :)

[@str8withjj]

That looks like so much fun..I love moon pies and Gumbo. Its the roux that makes the gravy, two types dark or light roux, must gumbo uses dark and adds great flavor. Love me some Creole & Cajun food.

[@ChristineMeachum]

That makes sense! 😋 Thanks for the extra info!

[@BradleyWales-l2m]

The gravy base is called "Roux". Flour and oil toasted slowly- light for seafood sauce, darker for gumbo/ soups & stews.

[@BradleyWales-l2m]

Toasted= stirred constantly preferably in cast iron.

[@Y2K-QT]

You are helping me to finalize my choice tondonwhat youre doing. Im just not willing to do things I don't want to do anymore, and I want to protect my energy and live the way I feel like I would be happy 😊 😊 thank you for sharing

[@ChristineMeachum]

We are on the same page then! I don't want regrets when I am older. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😃🙏🏼

[@kennedyfinancialsolutions]

I love watching your videos of the Eastern Shore and surrounding area. I am born and raised here, and I love seeing all the familiar places in your videos.

[@ChristineMeachum]

I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😃 Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

[@MauriceGreen-rl1ru]

What month was you in Mobile Alabama?

[@mfanning186]

Batteries, brakes and tires are paramount when traveling and during the winter months. Of the three auto part stores I like the place you bought the battery from the most. Since the company that supplies their batteries seem to be the best. Great video!

[@ChristineMeachum]

Great point! Thank you for watching! 😃🙏🏼

[@hildaatchison7189]

The Monday parade is the best one before Fat Tuesday.

[@smokeythebear5414]

Amen definitely was your alternator

[@rchambers1993]

Having good manners is legit in the south...

[@cocomuhly]

Wow… you kept getting lucky girl! It’s the good karma you put out into the world coming back to you! The amount was painful but glad you are back on the road!

[@ChristineMeachum]

I was very lucky to meet so many nice people! I am blessed! Thanks for watching! 😃🙏🏼

[@ev6910]

This video gave me so much anxiety with your car issues! Been there before.

[@ChristineMeachum]

Car issues are unpleasant but I'm learning to be more comfortable navigating them! Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

[@creativedesign3657]

Hi Christine it's Tony I think I finally caught it said you posted an hour ago the best part out of this video is that you still have Chase I've been praying a wondering we he has been I haven't seen him too much in the other videos because after all I am a big-time animal love her but anyhow I haven't seen one of your videos for 2 days and this popped up I seen you and I love your persona take care of you and Chase have a good evening and pleasant dreams see you in the next one

[@creativedesign3657]

Thank you for replying first please allow me to say that I talk into my phone and a lot of times I forget to proofread so sometimes the words aren't proper do you still have that dog well you both in my prayers so sweetie take care of both of you definitely looking forward to more of your videos

[@siasia3376]

Love you and your dog. This is so funny. Do you think your Spoon is big enough. Ha Thanks for all the hard work you put into your videos, and they are great. Later :)

[@ChristineMeachum]

Haha I've gotten so used to eating with my serving spoon that I forgot it's not normal lol 😃 Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

[@RVingwithLuck]

What a great video. You are so pretty and your dog is cool.

[@GlobalGreg]

Hey, love your videos! How do you like that type of water container? I’m about to hit the road myself in a couple weeks (same setup as you basically - suv + dog) and I’m trying to decide what I’ll do for water. Most of the plastic jugs I see online seem crazy expensive for what they are.

[@ChristineMeachum]

My $10 water jug from Walmart has lasted me several years and I love it. I have a separate PUR water filter for drinking water. These work out great for me 😃 Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

[@GlobalGreg]

@@ChristineMeachum awesome, thank you for responding!

[@doug8525]

Things really worked out well for you carwise. I love a parade! This was a cool video. I’m glad you’re around to show this stuff that I’d probably never be able to see in person. Have a blast!

[@ChristineMeachum]

Thanks for the encouraging words Doug! It helps me to keep going when times are tough! 😃🙏🏼

[@doug8525]

@@ChristineMeachum Christine....I remember your first videos when you were still a little apprehensive about what you were doing. Look how far you’ve come! You’re a pro now, in my opinion.when things come up to challenge you, like your car issues, or just anything that stresses you, do what I do. I tell myself that nothing, nothing , is going to defeat me. I’ve been through some rough times and made it through every time. I don’t know if you needed this little pep talk, but just in case! I respect you for your independence and you’re fun to watch. Best of everything to you!

[@ChristineMeachum]

@@doug8525 I'm getting ready to head to my next adventure and I did need the pep talk today. Thank you very much! I super appreciate you being there for the whole journey! 🙏🏼

What a string of lucky! Breaking down is stressful when traveling.

[@ChristineMeachum]

It was stressful but running into such nice people made it so much better! Thank you for watching! 😃🙏🏼

[@Seajunkie]

@@ChristineMeachum Newer sub here! I wanted to say, since Ive seen you are pretty handy, replacing an alternator is one of the easier parts usually. Ive always done my own with just a socket set and crescent wrench. They are not too expensive, often are rebuilt. Good you are now acquainted with the battery etc 🤞🏼

[@ChristineMeachum]

@@Seajunkie I consider myself handy but not that handy! Hats off to you!!! 👏🏻
