When I left the US, I gave one car to my brother-in-law and the other to a nephew. My job in life is to help those whom I care about. Family helps family. Could I have added some money to my bank account? Sure. Would I have felt better with the money rather than the hugs from my family, absolutely not.

I was raised by parents the exact same way in principle! Mostly by my mom and grandma who lived with us. Dad preached the same but did the opposite, he always said do as I say not as I do! Now the tables have turned and I just had to tell my dad that he can’t come live with us! I’m flying out Wednesday to Mississippi to help my sister evict him from her property and he thought I was flying one way to help move his rv to my place in Tennessee! Since my mom passed he has been parked on my sisters property living in his class a rv, he blew through $250,000 dollars in life insurance and is now talking bankruptcy so she is ready for him to go b4 his coach gets repossessed and it’s even harder to get him gone! I turned the tables and used his life lessons that he gave us back to him! I told him that if he had invested the money and or used it to pay off all his debt including the coach then he wouldn’t be in his situation, but letting him move into my house with no means to support himself ( his social security is eaten up by a brand new truck payment and insurance) is a dead end to solving his problems and he needs to figure it out and get stable b4 my wife and would even consider letting him stay awhile. Cause right now it would inevitably be be more than a while and he refuses to let anyone look at his finances or listen to recommendations like selling the truck paying it off and using the rest to buy a used vehicle with cash thus freeing up $1200 a month that could go towards rent or a small camper payment! Being a kid of a father like that was hard, but being an adult and dealing with your father like that is hard enough without making it ten times worse!

My folks always taught us you're never so broke that you can't help someone. We weren't given everything either, we earned our spending money and bought and paid for our own vehicles plus upkeep. Our folks were always there if we needed it, sometimes stuff happens thats not your fault- we learned to figure our way out but just a couple of times they helped. Your helping Mick will teach him a lot. It's hard when there's just no vehicles to be had. You sure went through some beautiful country, here in Oklahoma we call them Buffalo as well. Glad you had a safe journey, thanks for taking us along. I believe Mick will make it, it just takes some figuring out- you two gave him great lessons to help him do that. Stay safe and GOD bless

Second and third in VW camper in winter and last time also in winter but only to Haines and caught the ferry to VC. Definitely preferred the winter driving - of course that was before they paved the road and it was so much smoother covered in ice. Did a whiteout on the last trip. I enjoyed your video, great memories. Stayed in Toad River on the first trip down...at that time you went in and picked an empty room and left the money on the table if you showed up after hours, which we did. No locks on any doors then.

David let me start with At Least it wasn't on a motorcycle this time. LOL.... Bet it felt great. Yep... I have my trusty 1978 Blazer and it's even EMP proof. So it goes when the others wont. Yes I have my big one ton Van for convenience and work. But that Blazer never lets me down. And I can do all the work on it myself. Great video my friend. Always love your stuff. You're a good dad too. Happy "Presidents" day..

Thanks for showing that the trip can be driven in a 2w drive car! (I used to have a Vibe!) I'm in Colorado, and driving up to Alaska is on my bucket list!! I love the encouragement to "have something to offer." Amen!
