Great trip. Arizona is just beautiful today. 70's in the morning. Welcome home.

[@libmathis1007]

Truly enjoyed this virtual vacation..gonna miss you..come back soon and please stay safe......

[@kieryfontaine7756]

Thanks for showing me all over Washington. I have a son and his wife in Sammamish, and their sons go to college in Bellingham. It was nice to share their state with them for a while. I like to travel like you do, stop here and then there and everywhere 😃 And, since I love photography, I appreciated you showing all the scenery. I have never used a drone, so that was a nice treat. Since I am home alone most of the time due to the pandemic, you gave me something to look forward to each day. God bless you.

[@suzannescott3550]

I will certainly miss your daily video. Looking forward to what comes next. Hope your trip back to Quartzsite is a safe one. Happy travels!

Great video and trip, thank you so much Russ, really enjoyed it.

[@lorilake7613]

Russ, your virtual vacation brought you within a mile of my house and many of my friends homes, spread out along highway 20 , 101 and even Cathlemet. I have friends in Chewelah, Republic, Tonasket, Mazama, Concrete, Port Townend, Sequim, Port Angeles, Forks, and Cathlamet close to the ferry. I've traveled highway 20, highway 4 and highway 101 many times. I never tire of it. I'm so blessed to live on the Olympic Peninsula. It's a shame that Cape Flattery was closed. I love the cape. My friends and I go fishing out of Sekiu often. We sometimes drive the boat clear over to Neah Bay when we're getting skunked. I'm part of an adventurous senior women's contingent contingent who owns and operates our own personal recreational fishing boats. Watching your virtual vacation made me wish I was traveling. You passed within a mile or two of a couple of my previous homes, one in Jackson Hole and one in Idaho Falls. You even passed by my sister's previous home in Mullan, Idaho. It was good revisiting these treasured places thru your vlog. Thank you for sharing.

[@garymann5998]

Thanks for the summer trip, enjoyed the whole tour, looking forward for more videos, travel safe Russ.

[@bonnieclyne5618]

[@donnastedham9822]

What a fabulous virtual vacation. Saw lots of things I would have never seen except on this trip. Thanks so much. Be safe.

[@michaela.chmieloski3196]

84 is a segmented Interstate, Russ. Its eastern section passes through my old stomping grounds in Putnam County, New York. Thanks for getting me out of the house this summer, and showing in what a beautiful country we live.

[@seasidepaper]

Thank you for taking us along on your vacation. My husband and I travel to Washington every year for ours (from Canada). We sure miss that tip. Take care, stay safe,

[@teddsheyda7206]

Hey, Russ. Thanks for your sharing your amazing vacation with us. Reminds me of the road trip that I took 3 years ago after my wife passed away. I left South Carolina with my dog in my truck and made it all the way to the Seattle area, taking the northern route through Iowa, the Dakotas, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and Washington. Never did get down to Oregon. Stopped at a lot of the same places that you did - brought back a lot of memories. Came back east through the middle of the country. Was gone about 6 weeks, and loved every minute of it, most of the drive was off the Interstate system. Planning on doing it again soon. Safe travels.

[@craigkrajewski8772]

It's been wonderful traveling with you have safe travels where ever you go

[@daviddraper7364]

[@bacino2552]

I love the videos & the SKY has always been super blue. Now they are white cloudy like IL. skies. We have had smoke we can taste, really sad from West fires. Wow

[@randybyrd7766]

Thank you so much. I have really enjoyed your travels. Never stop.

[@scottbridge9391]

Yes, very happy and honored to have you as a visitor to explore our Great State of Washington!! That island you went on to get to the ferry is Puget Island. Although it's a large island, it's not the largest one along the Columbia. That honor goes to Sauvie Island. I admit that I never rode on the Oscar B. Much of Oregon was well into the hazardous range, with some places above 500 and 600 AQI. PDX was in the hazardous AQI for many days. At times, both the WA and OR coastline was very heavily smoked over. That smoke extended over 1000 miles off the OR coastline. And... the wildfire smoke created a smoky haze over the Canadian Maritime provinces, including the Island of Newfoundland and Labrador. Over the weekend, it covered most of Hudson Bay. The smoke actually made its way over to the British Isles and other parts of Northern Europe. Hope it wasn't too bad for you going thru the Columbia Gorge on 84. Much of that area was also in the hazardous range.

[@shayhouk8582]

Well Russ, I bet your ready to get home! I'm exhausted and I haven't even left the house! It has been the best virtual vacation EVER! Thank you! Safe journey, see ya back in Quartzsite!

[@lyndaphillips9064]

Enjoyed your tour. Bummer about the smoke. It changed our plans as well, but like you said, we could leave while some people live and work there.

[@michaelelmore5103]

Great trip Russ! Don't blame you, we're getting some smoke here in Missouri from the fires. Few days looked gray like rain but was from forest fire smoke. Can't wait to see what you've got planned next! Take Care and see you soon!👍😃

[@keithtowles4550]

Great trip, Russ. Thanks for enduring the smoke as well as the closures and restrictions. Looking forward to your next journey. Safe travels!

Thank you for a wonderful summer trip. My wife and I started watching after your Capitol Reef Utah video. Been watching almost everyday since then. We were in Utah last year and thought Capitol Reef was a place not to be missed. Since we have been in Lockdown on Long Island, New York, your videos have felt like we were traveling in the West again. I agree with you that Yellowstone gets to crowded. Stay well and stay safe, Pete

Enjoyed the beautiful virtual road trip 2020. Heading south myself to catch the dry warmer autumn Arizona weather.

[@bootss.9642]

Glad you are not sticking around the smoky areas but a little sad to see you are going home. It was bad north of the border as well but not as bad as a few years ago. Once you get home wipe down everything inside the van. I was shocked how black the windows were on the inside after weeks of smoke even though we kept them closed as much as possible. Loved seeing the Cascades again through your videos and hope you can head back up next summer to do the Cascade Loop. One of our favourite trips south of the border was doing the loop and then sections of it through the years so your videos brought back great memories. Sure hope the border can open up again when it is safe to do so since the scenery is spectacular.
