Catching Up On TRAVEL! (Florida Winter Pt. 1) Full Time RV!

[@waynecornwell2321]

I want more of Chad under the influence of anesthesia! Too funny! Thanks for bringing us along!

[@TruckingToPlease]

Top step ladder standing is a Navy tradition. Welcome to the old man hernia club Chad. Had 2 repairs while in the Navy. NAS Sigonella and NAVSTA Guantanamo. Good times. Great video as always. Keep them coming.

[@lizcort5047]

This might be the most real video you guys have put out. Traffic, dirt roads, accidents, ER visits….. we’ve been there done all that thought it only happened to us ! Now we know we’re in good company 😂

[@phecksel]

We have stopped at Carroll's RV park south of Atlanta on the way to FL along I-75. It's $40 per night, AND they give you a $10 coupon to use in their store. Their meats and specialty products are fantastic. We ate at Milagro in Key West, one of the best (and most expensive) meals I've ever had... and worth every penny Make sure you keep up on your PSA test. I was taken by surprise, and not a pleasant one Sorry, Tara is spot on with your "ladder performance".

[@ricsmith2185]

Enjoying this relaxing Friday night catching up with Chad, Tara and Daisy and you guys did not disappoint... safe travels and God bless!!

[@edgarcabrera7230]

Hi folks, my wife and I live in Orlando. I’ve been following you for about 6 months now. We’re newbie’s. We’ve been in Orlando for about 31 years. Have not been to the keys yet. Watching you guys makes me book a trip down there early next year. We have a TH Montana High Country. Boy, have I got lots to learn. By for now. Be safe

[@larrylyons9032]

Loved the Truman home tour. Thanks for including that part.

[@ronaldstephens1792]

SPOTTED HEART SHAPED CLOUD @16:16❤🤘

[@carolyngrover2038]

Truman was a very humble man and we live in Independence where he lived. He took daily walks and would talk to people. The Library is for research and learning. He didn't want a brag Library. My husband took our oldest kids to see his coffin at the Library.

[@michaelmontag5863]

WOW! That I was a lot of activity.

[@melendyladyboykin2482]

Tara, at least you stayed awake going 0 mph. I, however, can not. We were going thru construction or something in New Mexico. We were at a dead stop. I fell asleep. When I woke up, I ask my hubby where were we. He answered, "In the same place we were before you fell asleep." lol. What's the name of the music for this video? I like it.

[@caymanchristopher7014]

What fun! Glad you guys missed the hurricane.

[@frankschear9500]

Empty Gatorade bottles are a must. As a UPS driver for 34 years and on a rural route, they came in handy. Same for road trips. Just be sure to empty them right after.

[@rvpuglife]

We are at Fiesta key RV & Marina now until October 21st! We hope to see you guys out and about!

[@ranterbul]

It's much better next time if you just stack one ladder on top of the other one.

[@amariejackson08]

thanks for the tour

[@brianvandy4002]

Tara, I've noticed the last several videos you look like you're feeling SO much better. Either that or your acting abilities are improving dramatically. ;)

[@BruceS42]

On the having-to-pee while in a traffic jam, consider doggie bags. We *always* have rolls of those, since we use them to clean up after our dog, and they don't leak if you tie them off tightly. They're easy to discreetly "fill" from the seat of the truck while stopped. Well, for the guys, anyway...not sure how the ladies would adapt to that. For a longer-term solution, of course, there are purpose-made solutions, including adapters for women. That head injury made us both wince. And so did that Harvest Host. I'm way more of a newbie than Chad, and would have been in real trouble trying to navigate that mess. The Valentine's Day meal looked fantastic. I've tried before to do bacon-wrapped scallops, by actually wrapping the bacon around the scallops, and it's a difficult mess. Your solution looks way better.

[@cathybeall986]

Thanks for sharing the tour. Valentines dinner looked fabulous!

[@peppermyntpatti144]

Man, I need friends like yours! A month moochdocking in the Keys. Heaven! So kind of them! 😊 I’m impressed with the maneuvering skills of Chad. We have a 30 foot toy hauler and are just learning. I’m sure it’s painful to watch. Lol Staying in Naples for the winter. We will be heading down to the Keys and I haven’t been there since I was in junior high. I’m jotting down notes watching your videos. We won’t have the RV this year down there we are renting a place. I’m going to figure out campgrounds while I’m down there this year. We definitely will check out the campgrounds in the Keys that you’ve shared.

[@andycommonsincanada]

Great catch up video guys.

[@carolynknisely2383]

Thank you for the tour of Truman's house. Great!!

[@grayfox9911]

Great video. Thanks guys!

[@alanknight4418]

The keys is the best place I have been in the US. Hemingway house is nice also.

[@pmraul2921]

Thank you.

[@mikemoxley9477]

Nice video, The Keys are the best. Got to love your friends hospitality. Thanks for sharing your updates.

[@timmyers3428]

You were very close to our home base, near Dayton, and we were about two weeks behind you heading to Florida. We had our Valentine dinner at Georgia Veterans Memorial Park then spent time in Apopka before heading back north to the cold. Also, Brad, safety first, you need a taller folding stool, LOL.

[@BrianandAor]

Lol on the pee bottle, I drive a Peterbilt so I had a good laugh at that, I appreciate your channel so very much. Stay in the moment and have a beautiful day!

[@Maithymelulu]

Oh the pee bottle had me in stitches! We just had this same conversation just last weekend stuck in Sunday CO mountain traffic into Denver! No empty Gatorade bottles! Great video being able to jam all that content in there! Well done! So happy your health is good now. 😊

[@carlsurma8549]

Tour was exciting and supper looked delicious 😋

[@CWO3-uscg]

Thx for the tour. I lived in the officers quarters at Truman annex nearly 2 yrs and now live in Ft Lauderdale the las 25 yrs. Never been there.

[@TheRenocyclist]

Just love your videos. So enjoy your adventures and storytelling. Be well.

[@TrimansWife]

We live 30 minutes from Dade City! Small world!! If your friends haven’t taken y’all to Green Door on 8th yet, they are not very good friends!! It’s a MUST!! 😊

[@razmondpush2971]

Glad to see you two out and about. Thought I had been removed from the subscription list...lol. Hope to see more, sooner than later. Until next time...

[@OurLicencetoTravel]

For Tara. Chad, know what the most common injury that happens to a retired firefighter? Fall from a ladder! Always have someone "foot the ladder!" ❤👍🙏 OLT

[@garretlewis4103]

I can empathize with the having to pee part! Christine says 👍 to Key West. She grew up there as a kid.

[@badgerpa9]

Chad you are supposed to put a 5 gallon bucket on the top step before you stand on the rail like that.

[@johnnylightning1491]

At least you got last year's Keys trip in before you headed to the Keys this year, but barely. It really doesn't matter, it's fun watching you guys whether it's a month or in this case almost a year behind. It looks like you guys had fun in Key West. I've been there 4 times but only got to spend a few days each time. I need to go back for a month. Keep the good stuff coming guys.

[@geemoe3064]

My husband cracked a heel when the short step ladder colapsed suddenly. He was unable to walk without crutches for 3 months. Costco sells an aluminum lightweight ladder that would be better than that! Thx for all your videos!

[@joshsuperduty1270]

Chad n Tara thoughts 💭 on the 2023 Ford Super Duty truck launch last Wednesday it was awesome 😎

[@ChangingLanes]

I just did! Very cool stuff! 👍🏼

[@JamJamesWright]

i get so jealous watching your videos ..........the month were on the road just doesnt compare.....

[@karenraabis5296]

I didn’t go to that festival this year, but we went the year before. I love it they have a car show also.

[@larryk3986]

So, Chad, had a friend who thought he was invincible too. He fell off his short ladder and broke his neck. Yes, he is still alive but had to wear a neck brace for a long time. Better to borrow a ladder from your friends and do it correctly. Much love to the both of you.

[@bethsojourner6798]

I love Key West. Thanks for a great video. Of all the times I've been to key west I never went to the Truman house, it was nice to take the tour.

[@jimsimpson1265]

We always enjoy your videos anytime they are posted. Looked up Kings Island that is expensive wow.

[@wj2791]

Wow. Very relaxing video.

[@Luvnscapbookn]

Fun video seeing your travels, enjoyed it! Thank you!

[@CJ-jn5ik]

Boy you guys have had an interesting year so far!!😀

[@davidoverholt251]

Masson Ohio, about 1974 it was the bomb to attend!

[@TwoCaptainsOneShip]

Just fast forward to 5:35.....Aweosme!

[@leonajameson8902]

THANK YOU. What a truly awesome video.

[@richardcoyle2635]

Great video. Now it’s a mess. Hope they get it all fixed soon.

[@jb1047]

Really enjoy your travel vids. Production, editing and audio are top notch. Background music always seems to fit and is perfectly leveled. In short, your travel videos make me want to go there. Thank you.

[@bradleymanning3225]

Hi guys....loving the trip in the traffic...my wife and I hit this kind of traffic in Ca. regularly....no vetoes on the open door pottie stops....done this a few times myself....and it saves the WIFES cup :)

[@MrAlbarry51]

Awesome recap! We’ve never been to Key West, but this and previous episodes have inspired me to put a trip to the Keys on a very short bucket list. You two always do such a wonderful job putting together your content. Thank you so much for bringing us along with you.

[@Type1Detour]

The Keys is well worth the trip. Sunrises and sunsets every day.

[@helenguilford7510]

I am glad you are catching us up. I have missed you guys. 😊

[@domenickruttura5412]

Wow just great you guys are great

[@jeffluther7052]

So glad to see your both up and running again! We missed you both and look to see more videos. Hope to meet you both and be safe!

[@Brigand231]

TBI!? That's way more than just a concussion. Can relate to the "Gatorade" bottle activity. For us, we have "The Chicago bottle" incident in which I filled a diet Mountain Dew bottle because driving through Chicago in rush hour was a bad idea. As for the thing with the ladder... Tara, it's just like when you're driving down the highway - he may do things differently than you would, but in that exact moment, if he's behind the wheel it's his call (and his fault if it goes badly). You can support him and hope for the best or tear down his confidence and potentially create a worse situation. If you've got a better solution at that moment, you can always make a suggestion, but once it's in progress, just like in traffic, back him up. ...but yeah, it was a silly thing to do and you're right to get on his case for it after it's over.

[@jamesbitb]

Chad having fallen off a ladder only 8 feet and needing surgery to rebuild my heel bone, seriously be careful with ladder antics. Great catch up video!

[@louheindel8673]

Thanks guys. Go Navy!! Love touring Truman White House. We’ve stayed every year on Trombo Navy Base. Hope to see you this February!!

[@dannhennells2681]

Lol same step we have and I stand on the handle too, it’s well built!

[@pamelasprugasci5385]

I love Daisy! Makes me wish I still had my Morky his name was Bo I was blessed to have him with me for 17 years!

[@WhiteFox011]

My father was stationed here in Key West from 1952 to 1957 Serving on the Sennet, an aging diesel submarine. By the time we were transferred again in 1957, I think, we were so acclimated to the area that when the temps dropped into the 60s we wee wearing our heavy winter clothes that we had to wear when he was stationed in New London. His next duty station was back up north to Pa. He found us a great place in New Jersey on a huge farm, It was great, except that we arrived there during the worst winter storm that they had had in 50 years. WE just about froze that winter. Ah yes, the joys of being a service brat. Too funny about the having to go PEE. I am 77, and when a guy my age says he has to pee, you don't get in his way! We live in a very OUT IN THE STICKS AREA) gravel roads and all that stuff, and it is not hard at all to find an apple tree close to any road we drive on, and trust I am not the first to use such a site!

[@wreathsforfnc6469]

Hope you’re enjoying g your new home base!!

[@mikedietz8246]

Mason de Pepe was a great restaurant

[@judyhenson9802]

Love the recap. Take it easy on the ladder! My husband is recovering from falling off one!!!

[@brianroth7852]

Chad, sorry but when this wheels and lawn needs to be watered this old boy waters them. Not going to chance spilling in my HDT. 😂🤣🤔. Did find a porta potty for the truck. Was told by Cindy that it's a must for her. Boys can be boys but girls just can't water the lawn. Safe travels and roads Brian and Cindy, "xtreambydesign with passion"

[@duaneb193]

As I get older, I'm more into a lot of the history, so thank you for sharing the Truman information. Maybe one day!

[@Liz-gc6gn]

It's fun to see your travels again, but I can't tell you thank you enough for your how to's. Just yesterday I re-watched your internet video and took detailed notes. I use your info not only for our RV but for our house too since we live in the middle of nowhere. I am going to start RV-ing alone without my husband because I want to go out way more than him. I'm using all of your videos to learn how to do this on my own. Thank you again - I couldn't do this on my own.

[@janmoline]

OK, stop with the acrobat routine! Lol. Holy Cow dude, I can't even belive you can do that standing tippy toe on the handle of the step stool! However, age takes it toll and it's sneaky as #=[[ ! You won't think anything has changed and that little step stool will flip right out from under you!!! I guess you already know, concussions are no Bueno!! Should kept your little hospital peepee jug! So, I agree with others this is the real deal video!! Discussions about peeing, falls, the aftermath of falls, and all the fun and travel info!! You two are great!! Thanks for all the great videos.

[@vetasue]

I lived in Key West for a summer in the mid 70s when the Navy stationed my ex there. I didn't get to see things like the Truman Museum or any other sights. My ex wasn't into sightseeing. My hope is to get an RV and revisit places like Key West and Cape Hatteras where we also lived for a time. Great video! Glad you guys are back!

[@jeffboquist3904]

As always a great show. thanks alot

[@michaelclausen5227]

This was a great recap. What a great adventure.

[@tanya334]

Love the tour, the guide was fantastic !! Safe Travels guy's ❤🤍💙

[@danfergus8602]

You took the truck into Key West?!! You're a braver man than me. I felt the streets were tight on my motorcycle. Great video.

[@quicksoncamping2039]

This was another amazing Chad, Tara and Miss Daisy wonderful video. Daisy is so sweet.

[@cherylnewell9912]

Winter fest looked like a Hallmark movie

[@jasonpatterson947]

Gotta check out Bell MTN........

[@mtrcitykid2836]

I think this is one of the best videos you guys have done, thanks for the ride !

[@skipgarrett4379]

That was an excellent travel video you guys and worth the wait. Especially liked the Way you wedged the Truman museum into a short period and got it all! You’ve become pro status in videography.

[@peterossi9496]

Punta Gorda Florida was the wrong spot to be during Ian. Oh boy!😮

[@ChangingLanes]

Oh no! Hope you weren't there.. If so, hope all is well.

[@peterossi9496]

@@ChangingLanes I stayed! I hunkered down in my motor home for 27 hours! All is well, thank God. The Peace River came rushing in. Scary times.

[@Pantherjonvideos]

Had been noticing your absence...Glad to see things are going good, nice catching up! Eagerly awaiting part 2! :)

[@jefflooney5808]

Another great video. It was great meeting you guys at Hershey. Thank you for taking the time from your busy schedule to do so. What is the name of the Rv park in the video at 5:50? I have seen many videos you post from there, but I can not remember the name of that particular park. Thanks in advance. Safe travels

[@judyannkiwi]

Beautiful couple and w wonderful channel. Keep up the work!

[@carpediem365]

Another great video guys!! Chad amazing ladder balance, OMG, I would have broke my neck if I tried that, not from falling, probably from my wife reacting to it. Take care, we look forward to more videos and seeing the new trailer.

[@linak7155]

Hello Chad n Tara. !👋😁 ur videos contain every theme n topic that appeals to both young n old, male n female. They're also G - rated. In these crazy times the personal story is such a big draw to so many of us. My husband relates to Chads military background, down to the date he retired in '91. Please know we have watched every single video n anxiously await the rest of the story. 🐕 🌺 ⚓

[@patireland3345]

Any request from a gurney must be accommodated. Appreciate the travel post. Stay safe.

[@RiverWoods111]

Tara goes to Home Depot and buy Chad a step ladder with an extra step or two. That way he will have a tall enough one and not need to do the balancing act. I bought a four step one a few years ago but had to return it. It was terrifying at only the third step! 😂 I guess I will be hiring people to do anything on the top of my RV, because I wouldn't want to have to call the Fire department to get me off the roof of my Motor Home!

[@Wind.Road.Therapy]

Definitely the plan to visit the Truman White House on my next visit to Key West

[@MrFiredept99]

We live near Kings Island and I was so disappointed with the campground. Just like you I had a hard time leaving my camper. The price is to high and you are right on top of each other. We will never stay there again. Thanks for sharing I have learned a lot from your video's.

[@markwoods7237]

I’m so glad you two or doing ok health wise. You guys are awesome. Wife and I are looking at purchasing an RV. Hope we can meet up with you guys someday.

[@emilionides5520]

Love the excitement you two get to share together! Look forward to more. Health and safety comes first, good to hear you guys are doing well.

[@danrandall794]

Surprised that it was a submarine base. Towed family cruiser down there from MN and you were in heaven when you saw 8 feet of water. I have watched a lot of RV folk do Key West but have never seen anyone go to The Mel Fisher museum. Cool place and his story of looking for and FINALLY finding The Atocha is very interesting. Books on his life are also very interesting.

[@ChangingLanes]

We visited Mel Fisher Museum in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4vTnXaEjrZ2aM0 😀

[@danrandall794]

​@@ChangingLanes That was extremely thoughtful to let me know what video you had toured it on. I guess not everyone's cup of tea but as a former avid shipwreck scuba diver I really enjoyed it. Also the story of his decades long search for the Atocha was incredible. So sad that his Son, Daughter in law and another diver died when a big storm caught them as someone had to stay on board to keep salvage rights. Many good books on his entire story.

[@campfirerob1089]

great video, hope all is well, thanks

[@AndrewLarrimoremassachusetts]

looks like your family is near Cinncinati - have you considered the FMCA campground?

[@texasmamaw6555]

Why can’t Chad jump out n into the Rig to pee? Great vid thanks for update. Missed y’all. I love daisy snuggles❤

[@Type1Detour]

We have to travel about 45-60 minutes from my parents when we are in our "home base" area so it's great, but it's also not great because it is a good distance drive.

[@brendanwalsh1675]

Some HH just aren't worth it, sorry. We came into the wrong side of town in east Wyoming and turned onto a 10 mile, no turn around, July dusty, washboard farm road. Whiskey was great! So was the Blue Beacon!! We're pulling out of Florida after 7 weeks and surviving IAN. Haading West for the Winter. We'll miss Florida. Brendan & Lena

[@ChangingLanes]

Glad you stayed clear of Ian! 👍🏼

[@lanedelker9161]

Ohio is great in the summer. But sometimes you'll have 8 months of winter!
