I’m 77 with a lot of time on my hands…watch a lot KZbin. Only 2 sights I can recommend, yours and “A Few Acres Farm”. I caught up with you folks a yr ago. After binge watching old shows, I’m try to wean myself to a weekly video regimen…

You have too much fun! The boat parade was like South Padre Island. You must love the view at the beach when working. Michelle should have showed her great arm at the dive.😎🤓🥸

[@DawnShannonMusic]

Love this video. Beautiful footage. You both have a great sense of humor. My goal is too walk away from regular life and take our six...four leggeds across the country.

Not sure where you are in your travels now but if you are a lover of quilts then April 24-27 in Paducah,KY is the international quilt show at Schroeder Expo Center. It’s a must see! Happy travels! 🤗❤️

Nice to see Henderson Beach State Park again. It's been almost 20 years. I liked the natural beauty of the place. I love Fort Desoto too.

[@Brvfan2012]

Loved seeing Destin. Spent a lot of time there with my daughters growing up. Brings back many happy memories. Back then it was mostly beach and small, on beach, eateries. Thank you!

My theme is BAR NONE, or maybe bar just a few. Gotta try new things if the bars align. I loved the Florida ocean views. Thanks for the great video. Let's hear it for the FOODIES that love adventure!

[@loffy742]

About 12 years ago I was down there for a year. Also spent our 25th anniversary there. Across the street from Harbor Walk is a strip mall with an Irish bar/restaurant. On that corner is a gas station. If you go down that road a block behind the gas station and strip mall, there is a hidden away shack of a restaurant with a long pier an it has the best fish (catch of day) sandwiches and tacos. Look for it the next time you pass through and you won't be disappointed.

[@LivinRVision]

Know exactly where you are talking about. We drove through that strip mall and gas station to turn around. Thanks for the suggestion. 👍🏻😊🤓

[@chaosncheckt9356]

I live in Destin. Henderson Beach is nice but very competitive if you are trying to get an RV site. While beautiful and very close the beach, none of the sites of sewer. Go a bit further and stay at TopSail or Grayson Beach. I think they are beautiful beaches/State RV parks with full hookups for RVers and walking distance to the beach. From either it’s a nice bike ride on a path to restaurants and shopping. In fact, once a year we stay at TopSail with our teardrop to just relax. Safe travels

[@LivinRVision]

Thanks! We have heard a lot about those two places but oddly enough at that the time Henderson was all we could get.

[@harterbob]

Brian, I don’t know how you decide on what music to use to accompany your videos, but your choices definitely make your videos even more entertaining. Every week we watch your new video, we are more intrigued by the Grech Strada Ion, but I’m afraid the price point will force us to keep our class A diesel pusher. We do enjoy the conveniences of the extra living space, having a shower separated from the sink and toilet, a residential refrigerator with ice maker, washer and dryer, etc., that we have with our class A.

[@rodneybrown2697]

I have to disagree with the music during the boat parade. It was a bit much.

[@LivinRVision]

@harterbob Thanks. It’s tough though when you only have little time to complete the video and can’t always find something that I really am looking for and have to settle. Nothing wrong with liking your Class A more, we all buy what works best for us all and not all of us are looking for the same creature comforts. Many are looking more for the ease of travel, especially those of us that still work remotely and want less worries. Thanks again.

[@LivinRVision]

@rodneybrown2697 I agree as well Rodney. I didn’t want to use the song but I was running out of time and wasting way too much time trying to find what I was looking for. If you have the number of clips and do as much editing as I do in a 4 to 5 day period, finding the proper music isn’t always as easy as you may think. But thanks for your feedback.

Hi guys! My husband and I discovered your channel a few weeks ago; we love it! After watching this episode, I wanted to drop an idea in case it’s helpful. I watch a channel called Mari Life and she has a tent that is stored inside a contraption on the top side of her vehicle. I’ve seen tables and chairs on her channel and others, that are assembled, that are kept in their own zipped-up bag, for storage. Even a fold out, assembled, fire pit. The tent becomes an extension of her vehicle, whether it be from the back or the side of the vehicle. It seems like a great way to have a little extra space, whether it be just for hanging out, or for working, etc. Anyway, y’all are fabulous and we love your content. My husband and I are wanting to head out on the road in a couple of years, and y’all are paving the way for that. 🙂❤

[@LivinRVision]

Hi and welcome to our channel! 🧡 Thanks for the suggestion! Since we fulltime and have a lot of stuff with us, we don’t have much room to store anything else. 😂 We actually do have some camping chairs and a little table that fold up pretty small. We get them out occasionally. 😉

I really like that you take your van to different places during the day to work. I work full time and we have been experimenting with short trips ( 2 to 3 weeks ) with me working from the RV. We normally park for a week and travel on the weekends. So far we have had some beautiful sites but i worry about going longer and feeling stuck inside the RV. Did you have transition problems when you went full time and still working full time.

[@LivinRVision]

We really didn’t. We still had a place to work and was excited for the weekends to come.

[@lovematters7122]

How far in advance did you have to reserve a spot at Henderson Beach State Park? Thank you for sharing!

[@LivinRVision]

We luckily made the reservation just a couple weeks in advance. It was very full and we “would” of had to change sites if we stayed, which is no big deal for us in a small rig that has hardly nothing to tear down. Always check, you never know. 👍🏻

[@louiselevasseur7556]

Another great video! Which tools do you use to find things to do and see?

[@LivinRVision]

Google, Maps and word of mouth. 😊🤓

[@sadielaurentiwhitley3762]

Lovely video again. I’m not a fan of Florida weather which is why I don’t visit there as well as bugs. However, you showed some fun places. I’ve got a question regarding the van, do you carry a spare tire? I’m curious as my Pleasure Way does not.

[@LivinRVision]

I agree about the muggy weather in the summer and the bugs year round. It does not but there is a place for one underneath.

[@garrettsouthwell2975]

You probably should have stopped at Joe Patti. You passed it at 7:33. Maybe next time.

[@carriewoods563]

Hi guys! Love the channel, been watching since the beginning. Since you have the A, it seems you all move to places more instead of staying in one place for a week or longer like you used to do. Is there a reason you all don’t stay longer in places anymore?

[@LivinRVision]

It’s been mainly because of the areas we were trying to get to faster. We kinda explained that traveling from Iowa to the West Coast. We had a lot of ground to cover and places we wanted to see before we got to the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque. Then we were making our way to Florida in time for our reservations. Now we are back to staying at our Thousand Trails membership parks longer in Florida.

[@slalomking]

Where is the sunshine?

[@auroranite]

Why I wouldn’t like a Class B is you’re using all the public bathrooms, not your own to conserve tank levels. Always a compromise on rigs igetit. but Deal breaker 4 me.Flora-Bama interesting place👍 Hendersen park beautiful.

[@LivinRVision]

Actually no, we don’t “always” use public/campground bathrooms. We only do on occasion. Michelle likes to occasionally use them ONLY when they are in decent condition and we are parked close, simply for more room. In fact, I used to use them on occasion with our Class A and our Airstream simply to get my shower finished while she was in the shower. Sounds like you may not have watched many of our videos from the past, although…we don’t show every single day of our lives on video. Agree, Henderson State Park and Campground is very beautiful. 👍🏻😊🤓

[@EdwardPrestes]

😀 Thanks for the nice insights into Destin and the region. I was wondering if your method for choosing final destinations and stops in between that are worth your time, has changed over time. Do you pay for more sophisticated software or you just use free ones, etc
