Every so often ... there is a moment in a video ... where something happens ... and Joseph has these looks on his face ...towards YOU! Kalyn... and we all get to see ... that he ... just ... absolutely ... adores you Kalyn. So happy for both of you! Living your Dream & the love really shines through!

She gives me those looks too. 😉 It's funny because the first example that always pops in my head of those "looks" is in one of our videos. If you watch the beet harvest video where I'm struggling to fix my truck there is a spot where she says "I thought cutting the line was the stupid part." So many people missed what really happened in that moment. I was stressed. I was tired. I was anxious. Kalyn knew (intuitively) that what I needed most was a moment to laugh...a moment of putting life in perspective....and she nailed it. Probably not the best line for every guy out there in that moment...but she just knows me perfectly. The looks I give are just me knowing that I totally married a woman out of my league. -J

When you stepped from Canada to Alaska, I actually got tears in my eyes. I am so happy for you guys that you are able to make this dream trip that you have worked so hard for. As far as Trinity getting sick on your bedding, we too have had our dog get sick on our bedding while we were camping. Laundromats are no fun, especially when it intrudes on your travel.

I love watching you guys! I'm especially interested in your Alaskan Adventure as I am an ex-Alaskan (30 years). I left 20 years ago and it is amazing at how much has changed. I laugh every time I see the sign post forest near Watson Lake. We first drove the Alcan in 1973 and the "sign post forest" was 4 poles on the side of the road with a few license plates on it. I used to have a photo of it but it got lost somewhere over the years. Can't wait to see what is next in your adventure! Stay safe and have a blast!

We went to Alaska in 2018. We drove our truck camper. Even though we were driving the speed limit and maybe five over, the RVs that passed us, some flying, and no exaggeration. you could actually see their tires come off the ground. We expected to see them pulled over up ahead with RV parts all over the road but never did.

Hello to all four of you! I remember when we left Mackinaw, arrived in Texas, were on our first trip to Austin, and had a rock thrown into the windshield. We drove around until we got it fixed…just in time to drive home and have another one hit my side of the windshield. Two cracks in one day. It looks easy to fix but we let the auto places fix it. It looks really beautiful up there.

If you put clear fingernail polish preferably gel coat it will stop that crack in windshield from spreading.

Thanks so much! Yeah, we crossed over on June 17th. Crazy that it's almost a full month behind real time now but we've shot so much video on this trip! It's a good problem to have. It's just earbuds in my ear. I listen to a couple podcasts in the morning and sometimes I forget to take the earbud out before we film. 😂 -J

Most people know the town of Gander Newfoundland that took most of the Air Traffic headed from Europe to the U.S. during 9/11, ,but most people don't know that Whitehorse took the Asia to Alaska on 9/11. There were a couple of 747 that landed and being a smaller regional airport, it wasn't designed for such large planes and probably the only since that have landed there.

I drove the Alcan in 1982 and it was all gravel and dirt except for about 30 or so miles around Whitehorse. Oddly enough I never got a chipped windshield nor a flat, though I picked up a hitchhikers rolling multiple flats a couple of times, one was from about 30 miles from where I live in south Georgia.

I get the 4 day setup/take down rush! When I'm doing my long motorcycle trips I'd try to save money camping instead of a hotel, but I found I lost a LOT of time setting up and tearing down camp if I'm sandwiched between travel days. So if I'm doing that usually I'll find a hotel, because I think I lose 1 to 2 hours at night and again in the morning just because I camped instead of like, 20 minutes in a hotel.....but I pay for it lol.

I heard you mention that you’re going to go to wrangle Saint Elias national Park. We are spending the summer at the princess Lodge in Copper Center which is 10 minutes from the visitor Bureau of that park. This is our first experience at work camping. We’re spending 18 weeks at Holland America’s land Lodge near Copper Center. This is truly a beautiful part of the world and it is out in the middle of nowhere. We have buses from the cruise lines coming in every day, and of course departing every day. we are thoroughly enjoying your videos and we watched Craig and Victoria’s videos as well. Have a safe trip and enjoy your summer.
