What I love about shopping in Mexico is that there isn’t so many choices which made it quick and easy. Americans have just soooo many items!

[@NewstateNomads]

That is a great observation, Christine! In the US, I don't think people realize that most everywhere else in the world you can't choose from 12 kinds of peanut butter, for instance. Aldi, Trader Joes, etc are setup like that in the US, and I feel like it makes things quicker and easier to shop. Stores can be a lot smaller, too! Thanks for watching. 👍 -Howard

Best feeling in the world when you finally cross the line MEX/USA

[@sherriweber7105]

Loved watching that video of you coming back to the states. Glad you got a rescue dog while in Mexico. We got rescue too. That’s one better way to go to a dog. Glad you a nice time there and with friends too. How are the dogs now with paws being bit and the burrs? And your husband. Glad you found a camp ground too opened up. Especially with full hook ups. Looking forward to seeing next video. See you soon and be safe. Sherri Weber

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Sherri! Everyone (including me) are doing much better now. Finding full hook ups in that heat was crucial, very fortunate that it was close by and reasonable! So glad you're along for the journey, and thanks as always for watching. -Howard

[@StewKelly]

Glad you guys had a safe trip back. Yes, Covid has really changed things and how to go through life seems to be evolving too. Glad you're safely on to new adventures!

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Stewart! Certainly a different country to the one we left 5 months ago, but we are thankful for continued health as we explore the USA. As a VERY social person, it's hard for me not to say "hello" and interact with the neighbors at campgrounds, or restaurants, stores, etc. Also, sadly several experiences we hoped to show in our episodes around the US are closed or greatly scaled back. Definitely an interesting time for all of us. -Howard

[@jimjessup2912]

Wish I had discovered you all sooner! Really interesting stuff.

[@jimjessup2912]

Well presented, entertaining.

You guys are so much fun. While watching the vid in

[@sherriweber7105]

I found this video. I never see it before. Glad to have found it. Saw Dennis and Liz. You all looked liked you had fun. The food looked great. Glad you had no problems taking Scout across the border. Glad it was just the sausage. Can’t wait to see the next video. Hike you are some where safe and warm. Stay safe and travel safe.

[@NewstateNomads]

Hi Sherri! Glad you found this one in the vault, seems like a liftetime ago! We were so relieved Scout made it across the border with no issues. Hope you're having a great weekend! -Katelyn

[@townswiley4429]

Welcome home guys.... if you come to the PNW in the next few months.... let us know. We head south on our retirement adventure mid November

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Kenyon, will do! I bet you are so excited to start your adventures! -Howard

[@ericvaneck4296]

Watching Scout, he really likes the adventure of traveling. He doesn’t miss a thing from what I can see.

[@NewstateNomads]

Hey Eric! I think you're right. She really likes looking out the big windows as we're driving down the road, looking at all the different scenery. I always wonder what's going through her head! Such a sweet pup. -Katelyn

[@ericvaneck4296]

@@NewstateNomads I know what you mean, what they think about sometimes. I would like to know how my therapy dog knows when someone is suffering and needs a little love. She will pick someone out of a crowd or just in a hallway, it is like a magnet.

[@Lizardatsparks]

Wear those mask's

[@timrobinson1523]

I really enjoyed your Mexico adventure. We have lived in Puerto Vallarta for sixteen years. Come back soon, we have excellent rv parks on the Pacific coast. You might even get a Canadian accent, aye.

[@NewstateNomads]

Hey Tim! Thanks so much for watching, so glad you enjoyed our travels. Mexico is amazing. We're sad we didn't get over to that side of the country this go-round as planned, but we can't wait to return and explore more. PV looks beautiful, no wonder you've been there for 16 years. 😍 -Katelyn

[@Travelwithchris]

Flying to Mexico tonight! So stoked

[@NewstateNomads]

Ahhh, that's AWESOME, Chris! Where are you headed?

[@hopeandgracetompkins3707]

You guys are so much fun While watching the video of all the three of the dogs together I was watching the two darker hair dogs and they look they had their heads down and they looked like they were so unhappy with their heads down, like my Cola (dog) used to do. However, we have no idea what animals are thinking. Very cool rescuing scout. God bless your contiuing travels.

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much, glad you found our channel! Dogs are so full of personalities, right? One of the Puggles, Piper, is sassy and moody. The other, Ella, is super sweet but generally terrified at everything. 😂 -Howard

Love and Hugs from Sapulpa Oklahoma

[@kelanth462]

Good that you made it back across the border with so little problems. The old US isn't really open for random adventures lately. Maybe find a comfy place to hunker down? Stay safe.

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much! It was a surprisingly smooth border crossing. Yeah, its definitely different here and we plan to do that soon! -Katelyn

[@hebguy07]

WELCOME to TEXAS

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Dale! It's bittersweet to leave Mexico, but Texas has been very welcoming! -Howard

[@pmarmion7]

You are living my dream . I would do anything to be able to put my dogs in an RV and travel. GOD BLESS

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks for watching, and hopefully we are sharing ideas along with our journey so you can take yours someday! 👍 -Howard

[@luyzqint3760]

At minute 7:00 when the US customs officer asked, what are you bringing with you?, Scout said, nothing officer.✌️🤣

[@NewstateNomads]

😂🐕❤ Haha! Exactly, we told her just to keep quiet and be a good girl.

[@peacefulwife5199]

I thought Scout would've said, "No Habla Inglés" LOL

[@nbragtop]

Welcome home from an old Alabama couple! Thank you for letting us tag along in Mexico. Your videos are great and so are you guys and pups. Scout has really relaxed seems to enjoy traveling. Thank you and be safe!

[@NewstateNomads]

Well we are so glad you found us and are along for the journey! Thank you so much for the welcome home! I have a feeling there will be even more Mexico content from us in the future. 😉 -Howard

[@cashstt716]

Great VLOG and I can't wait for the Mexico Recap VLOG next week. It will be so different not seeing you guys south of the border. Very happy you and the dogs are back safe and sound. You guys have become real pros with the VLOGS.....the city I would LOVE to go to is Guanajuato! Thank You so much for showing us that beautiful place. It was one of you most popular videos you have done so far....for good reason. You will be happy to know that I am warming up to the new NN intro.....I used to fast forward past it in protest. Katelyn....I knew you are coming back with a new dog....but if you compare the new shaggy post quarantine Howard to the professional version of Howard in minute 1:50....it appears you are coming back with a new husband as well. Hard to believe its the same person. It warmed my heart in minute 2:41 to see the flashback of Ol' Blue. Hopefully someone picked them out of the Lost and Found box and is wearing them with pride. Howard....I am sure you are secretly jealous when you think about all the compliments the person gets on a daily basis. It was tough to watch minute 9:33.....I was hoping for a big announcement that you and Eat See RV were going to continue the caravan. I think you guys are really going to miss each other. Good travel partners are hard to find. Maybe you will reconnect in Mexico??

[@NewstateNomads]

Oh, Cash... you're comments always make us cry with laughter! 😂😂 So glad you loved the Guanajuato video, I think it was still my favorite place we visited! Glad you're warming up to the intro, I try to make it a little different each week to keep it entertaining with different video clips and tweaking the words. SO FUNNY that you fast forward! I really laughed hard when Howard read me this comment last night. And yes! He does look like a totally different man LOL sort of like Tom Hanks in Castaway after he's been on the island! Aww we'll definitely miss Dennis & Liz but I have no doubt there will be a reunion soon! 😉 - Katelyn

Really enjoyed the Mexico Monday series! Glad the border crossing went smoothly, in general and for Scout. 🌮

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much, Tara! We're so glad you came along on the trip with us. 🙂 I almost couldn't believe how smoothly it went and that they didn't ask any questions at all. But we're so glad, Scout is loving life here. Wait til you see the episode in a few weeks... lots of Scout doing amazing things! 🐕❤ -Katelyn

[@Eleven.Eleven.1111]

I laughed when he said next stop America just wondering if anyone will tell him mexico is in America 🤣🤣🤣

[@NewstateNomads]

Earlfred, it's a hard habit to break! As a citizen of the United States of America (see how weird that sounds even though that is correct?) we are surrounded with cultural elements that identify us as "Americans" and the country simply as "America." Take "America, the beautiful" or Bruce Springsteen reminding us "They're coming to America" or even the Eddie Murphy classic "Coming to America." I would wager that most people in the USA if asked their nationality would declare, "American." It is incorrect, and of course ignores all the OTHER countries that are in North, Central or South America to declare the USA as singularly American. Thanks for watching. -Howard

[@marty6055]

That was a fun trip... thanks for taking me along. I am so happy that Scout is with you, he will have a better life with you guys.

[@NewstateNomads]

So glad you could join us on the journey, Marty! Lots more adventures for all of us (including Scout) still to come! -Howard

Hey friends! Haha, so glad you found that funny... I was like 'way to call me out, Howard!' 😂Thanks so much for watching, can't wait to document the process! -Katelyn

[@eugeniodgv]

Really loved your videos. You belong in TV. Thank you for your very positive view of Mexico and the negative stereotypes you addressed. Mexico is a great country and you will not disagree with me in saying that amongst other things, it has the best food in the world. You have another friend in Monterrey. You should visit our city “The city of the Mountains” is now becoming the “The city of the bears” because of so many sightings. Look forward to many more videos.

[@NewstateNomads]

Wow, thank you SO much! Too funny, I (Katelyn) used to work in TV as a news reporter and anchor years ago. Thanks for the compliment! It was easy to showcase all the great things Mexico offers because it truly is a wonderful country and we hope that people can learn and see that through our videos. We miss it already and can't wait to return! And yes!! The food, oh goodness, the food. It's so delicious. We wondered about the bear signs, thanks for clearing that up! We'd love to visit Monterrey and will definitely keep you posted on our return! Thanks again for watching and subscribing!❤ -Katelyn

I probably would have gotten pizza 🍕. Welcome back to the 🇺🇸 great video 👍🏼

[@NewstateNomads]

Haha, we've had LOTS of pizza since we've been back! That's another good one. Actually, the other day we were trying to decide between tortas (which I LOVE) and pizza and opted for pizza and it was so delicious! Thanks for tuning in again this week! ❤ -Katelyn

[@luyzqint3760]

I checked your website for the update*, and base on that, I would suggest to check out qroo.us website, there is a lot of information regarding that move. Paul and Linda also have a KZbin channel, but they are not as active there. Saludos and welcome back!.✌️

[@NewstateNomads]

Great tip! We were actually taking some of Paul's Spanish lessons on their KZbin channel and loved them, they're very helpful. We'll look into their info on this too. Thanks, Luyz! ❤🙂 -Katelyn

[@gherroz1]

Such a nice video you created I really enjoyed your experiences, I live in Monterrey but I am from Mexico city, my grand father use to be a an RV enthusiast some 30 years ago so I guess I have it in my veins, I wish I could do the same as you did some time soon and travel in México, the US and Canada. You have a friend here in Monterrey, if you pass by some time in the future you can park in myhouse any time and meet my family. have a safe stay, and keep seeing you through your channel @newstate Nomads.

[@NewstateNomads]

Hi Guillermo!! We're so glad you liked our video and our experiences in Mexico. We have absolutely loved your country and can't wait to come back soon! A love of RVing does seem to run deep, how cool that your grandfather used to do it! Thank you so much for the generous offer, we'd love that! Sadly, we didn't get to stop in Monterrey this time but would love the opportunity to visit. We greatly enjoyed Mexico City, too! ❤ -Katelyn

[@IamaDutch-Kiwi]

I know going home was probably a good thing, but do keep safe you two. It sounds like The Mexican regulations regarding Corona are indeed stricter than the US. Just keep t the rules, wash hands often, keep distance and stay home if feeling under the weather. Oh dear, I sound like a mum or doctor. Sorry. Loved the video seeing how you coped returning across the border. Hopefully you've settled in well now. Did you need to go into quarantine at all? 🎥👍❤️🌷🙋‍♀️

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much for watching! Yes, we're back on the road here in the USA, and thankfully no quarantine requirements yet. We have been extra cautious and still sticking to the restrictions as if we were in Mexico. Happily setup in a beautiful national forest right now! -Howard

[@proudtexan5513]

What RV MPG do you average pulling the vehicle behind you? Thanks so much!,

[@NewstateNomads]

Hi Harvey! Great question... we get around 14 MPG towing the CR-V. We used to tow a Hyundai Santa Fe Sport on a tow dolly and would get about 12 MPG with that. Thanks for watching! -Katelyn

[@peacefulwife5199]

I knew that the grocery store experience would get ya. Ya'll weren't here when the store shelves were getting pretty bare and folks were having hair pulling fights over TP. 185.00 for the store? That sounds pretty average especially if you stocked up on a few beverages. 🍺🍹🍸🍷🍾

[@NewstateNomads]

Haha, it definitely did. You're right... we did miss out on all that craziness! Yeah, the cost was pretty average especially since we had to fully restock on ALL produce and meats because we couldn't bring any back across the border. It was definitely a lot more considering we had been spending about $15-$30 when we needed to stock up on groceries on the island. I don't think we even got any alcohol on that trip though! 😂 -Katelyn

[@leeverrill]

I really enjoyed watching the 4 of you on a trip of a lifetime...so very fortunate you could do that...but now your coming back to a country very different from the one you left..in some places people are insane to each other and at each others throats over masks ...it's sad....but go live your life..it's the only one you got....enjoy..and welcome back

[@NewstateNomads]

Hi Lee! You're absolutely right, it was the trip of a lifetime and we're so thankful we got to experience it. Thanks for always supporting us here and coming along on the journey! You're right about that... it's been pretty surreal coming back here, that's for sure! -Katelyn
