For anyone reading this. I use a walker, I would like to attend the January rstamp rondevous. I can cover all costs. I am in canada. I am native Canadian which means I can pass freely. Let's chat.

[@aprilbaxter2578]

I always appreciate your videos! I found you about three years ago, and I have sought out your videos to learn as much as I can. I enjoy the comparisons of various products on your channel. Thank you for offering to share your "home" area with us. I'm definitely a person who needs a visual to get where I'm going. You did a great job helping me to get where I'm going when I finally go.

[@pegslifeontheroad7709]

Bob, You are a doll. Thanks for all you do.My sister and I just drove 28 hours---4 days... to meet you at the RTR. What a class act. Went up to you to thank you personally but am sure you have no idea who I am. Just want to reiterate that you are appreciated and loved for all you share and teach us...Thanks.

[@CheapRVliving]

Thank you!!

[@sarahtara5546]

This is so awesome that you've shared this with us! We just got our home on wheels and will be able to travel to places like this and hopefully meet you and all the gypsy folks soon! Happy travels!

[@BirdieRN71]

I live here in Phoenix and would love to visit all you lovely people and learn more about this lifestyle. I also just got a used 4x4 SUV so need to use it and this would be a great mini weekend trip. Thanks for the directions and will give shout out before coming.

[@CheapRVliving]

Sounds great Shea, see you there!

[@cathymiller3086]

I absolutely love watching all your videos, old and new, I love them all!! Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@seanharley6432]

This looks like a great place to spend the winter. The south west is one of the prettiest wilderness in the United States. I was in a similar landscape in Las Vegas and the mountains changed colour depending on the time of day. My only concern is the possibility of rattlesnakes. Do you need foot wear with high uppers for protection against snake bites? Probably wouldn’t be a bad idea! I hope that the guy who backed his rig into a bushy campsite under a tree hasn’t had any encounters with rattlesnakes. Snakes tend to hide out in bushy spots for protection. On that note I give all wildlife respect including snakes. Even the venomous ones as they are part of nature. In Ontario, Canada where I live we have the Massasauga Rattlesnake which is on the endangered species list. The snake can be found in the Georgian Bay; French River; and along the Lake Erie shoreline in Ontario.

[@reality_rv628]

Hi there Bob Wells - wow so many videos to watch! It gets a bit confusing - I've been on the road for a while but just found your channel a couple months ago but boy I sure wish I'd found you before I started off. I learned a lot on my own - had to of course. But it's all good. I don't have solar - I use my generator and it powers everything - A/C, M/W everything. Are you still going to Enrenberg in winter?

[@Scarletsky138]

Excellent as always! Can’t thank you enough!

[@stevewoods8116]

[@ggebhard1]

Bob, you are great! Helping people, like this, is just wonderful!! Your directions are phenomenal! This community of Nomads are very fortunate to have you. Bob Wells the legend!! I will never be a part of this group, but I enjoy watching all your videos! It’s now 2024 and it’s horrible if they raise the rent to $600/month. Creed will ruin this. But, when no one comes, anymore, they’ll lower the price!! Mark my words!

[@jeffpickell2313]

If you like mexican restaurants, there are a lot of them in Blythe. I am from San Diego and love that there's a Del Taco there, as well.

[@mildredlackey1938]

A very great video, thanks

[@gregpainter7609]

Hey Bob. I have not started the nomad life, but I live rent free and utility free at the place I work...with permission. So I understand the freedom and cost reduction. I am moving toward a van life, because it is so appealing. I just want to thank you for everything you do to help others start this life and successfully live it. I have followed you for some time and know you are essentially an introvert, but it is quite evident that you have a big heart for people. You are loved and appreciated. Thank you for caring and for loving people.

[@CheapRVliving]

Greg, thank you for your kind words, I wish you all the best on your journey.

[@julianroccopesa3491]

Wow! I think this area has grown since you made the video. I have just been driving trying to find by your directions and I am not seeing it. Are you still living there or has things changed ? Just drove from Sault St Marie Michigan. I found the laundry. Everything seems different. Can you give us an update, please, Thank you.

[@gregoryjohnson6368]

So nice to hear you being your cheery self. Thank you for posting Bob. ✔️

[@gogogg4610]

Thank you for taking the time to give such detailed instructions this just goes to show that you're always willing to go the extra mile to help others! Thank you so much for being you!

[@cynhanrahan4012]

Thank you! l'm still in the planning stage, researching rigs, cost, all the stuff you so generously teach. l'm in Florida now, and will be doing a test tour of the southeast to get used to nomad living before l strike out for parts l've never seen before. These are so helpful!

Hi. Did you start your journey? Any knowledge to pass on?

[@davechristian7543]

@@vincedemo2752 No one hardly ever respond sadly mate, sorry as iv asked about 30 times now wit no reply especially from Big bad bob n its ticked me of so much that i find myself writing comments like this now wat r only f'ed up n negative. like wats the point bc as soon as i say im in Australia no basted wants to reply especially Bob so i dont give two f's anymore. period.

[@suep8989]

Bob, we really enjoyed you in Nomadland!! Thank you for the contributions you make to the world!!

[@knutblaise9437]

Good stuff! Thanks Bob. I do have a question on parking near trees. Trees would suggest there is water available to the trees and water may be available due to flash floods in the area surrounding the trees. It would be great to watch a video concerning when it is OK to park near trees in the desert. Carolyn was talking about gullies with vegetation as being a no-no as they are probably flooded periodically. Maybe these trees with vans parked close by have deeper root systems.

[@tomholt8030]

This video was very helpful in my considering making the trip,Thanks Bob.

why are there so many ' thumbs down '??? this is all great info, and abundant generosity!

You rock Bob ,you're my favorite KZbin channel this video with great as they all are thanks for the info.

[@CheapRVliving]

Thanks Clara!

[@borandell9915]

I just started watching your videos a few months ago. I love binge watching these older ones. So much information and insight. I fully understand why you would not be able to put one up like this today. Fame does indeed come with a downside. You'd be swamped with guests. But great info for 1st timers like myself. You've got an excellent library Bob.

[@davechristian7543]

Sorry, so why wouldn't he be able tio put a video up like this one 'today Plz??. Truly confused.

[@borandell9915]

@@davechristian7543 Bob may come across as an extrovert, but he's quite the opposite. Other than the formal gatherings like the RTR, he prefers to camp alone or in small groups in the tribe. A video like this would have fans swarming his camp to see him. (See 30:06, good example). He is generous and gives graciously of his time. But like many of us, he prefers to be alone.

[@janiebigham1]

My sister and I are going to be doing this when we retire in about 4 years. Really enjoying your videos and love the information that you give!

[@originalsixx]

How is it going?

[@waynesworld2014]

Bob I just want to say thanks for all you do to support this life style , don't know where to begin, but since this is a video giving directions to the campsites in Ehrenberg I would like to say thanks for the the comprehensive and detail maps and instructions you give to some of your camping areas. I know the need not reveal all your camping locations for the sake of your own privacy. Having said that though I hope that in the future you can share more places that supports a good camping experience . These video are awesome. Thanks so much for your labor of love.

Bob, you said it's warm during the day and of course can get cold at night. Wondering what the average temps. are this time of year? I'm coming next year. I informed my husband of this last night and he said he's up for it. Regardless, I will be there and I am looking very much forward to it! Hope you got a good recharge on your energy last week and you're feeling well. Tammie Miller

Wonderfuel video, Bob. Never been there but your instructions are so clear, should be easy for anyone to follow. it's been my dream to do what ya'll do. However, I'm caregiver for a relative who has Alzheimers. So I enjoy traveling along with you & several others on their videos. Ckd my list of ones I'd subscribed to & can't imagine what possessed me to subscribe to some of them. had nothing to do with this way of life. So just unsubscri bed to many of them. Currently hunkered down for 2nd night in SD motel due to winter storm. Town just south of us got 18 inches of snow. Will be so glad to get home to IA tomorrow. Looking forward to next video.

[@brendakachelmeyer9282]

Bob...here's a wonderful surprize for you. The last exit before the Arizona border is Riviera Dr. Its 3 miles to the end of that road and it used to be all dirt. The whole road is residential. At the end on the left is what looks like private road. Turn left there. Take it to the end. Its magic and no one knows its there. 29 miles of what they call slews that go off the Colorado river . Its beautiful and lush and green and the best fishing you've ever seen if you like that sort of thing. Find someone with a little motorboat and launch there, Be very careful to know where you are though. I've gotten lost in there many times. As you motor through, you'll see little mini beaches where you can picnic ect. Its amazing. Message me if you find it. Have fun. Brenda

Hi Bob, We had to leave the RTR after just a couple of days...definitely sooner than I wanted to (I wanted to see 'The Slabs' before heading home). We are coming back down the end of Feb for a couple of weeks and I would like to get our solar done at that time. Could you tell me the name of the outfit in Flagstaff that you suggested in this video for solar components? We are leaving MT on the 24th and am wondering if you are aware of someone that is good with solar that will likely be there at that time for an install? I was visiting with an individual who was at the RTR who does 'van builds' and solar that offered to do my solar if I could stay a couple more days (I couldn't). If it helps you to know who I mean, he said his shop was about an hour and a half away from Quartzite. He got my number and said he texted me his contact info, but I'm not seeing it on my text log. I hope to get to meet you if you are still in Eherenberg at that time. I think we had about a two sentence conversation at Q'zite. You were on top of your van doing a shoot for a vlog, I asked you where I could drop off the firewood, you told me and that was it :) I did get to see you at the morning meeting at the fire pit the next morning and that was the last I saw you HA~* Anyway, if you anticipate being around Ehrenberg at that time and/or you could help me with the other questions it would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime, take care. Peace, Russ~* [e-mail]

Have retired and looking forward to seeing our great country. Will be towing a 16 foot cargo trailer to haul my "toy", a supercharged 1976 Triumph TR8. Hope towing trailer won't be too burdensome as I'd hate to give up my sports car passion. Hope there will be a 2018 RTR as have tentatively put on ,y schedule and this Ehrenberg campsite is a perfect way to exrwnd my western travels. Hope to see you on the road.
