My $500 Mistake Truck Camping in my Defender

Maria: How do you get in? Raul: The door. Classic 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@teresagrifffin7132]

Ps as a mum I do get a little nervous when your in certain situations but I truly believe in gut feelings these have kept humanity alive since the beginning of time if you feel its not safe go with it better to be safe than sorry xxxxx

[@Random-Wanderer232]

Take us anywhere! We'll watch whatever you produce. That was a cool catch of the Owl!! On to the next adventure! ❤

I was in the us army during the Cold War and station on the Czechoslovakian board for 6 years. conducting boarder patrols. this is bringing back a lot of old memories. thank you.

[@marymaclaren9553]

Words cannot describe how afraid of heights that I have become as I get older. Now, add on the loss of steadiness that comes from aging! I was yelling from fright just watching you! You did a great job holding it together while in the second silo, but I felt the panic in your eyes. But you did it!! Job well done!

[@AndyLong]

Always had the same problem

[@amischair]

Hey Maria! This video was epic. The Airbnb owner and host were both so gracious. Huge congrats 👏 for spotting your GoPro ! Bigger congrats for facing your fear of heights. Let me just say that was insane. Cool seeing the owls in the 2nd silo. Love and safe travels to you and Blue! 💙🐶🐾

[@Liz_Au-enstar]

Yes that kind of content is legit so cool, it gives me ideas of where I would like to explore when I go through 50 states with my puppers. Please continue doing things like that!!!!

Good thing Po is a right-side steering . And , yes , it's proof you are a good person and have the best karma !! @14:37 Unboxing - hilarious !! We've all been there when attempting to open an "uncooperative" package !

[@martian9163]

Another mind blowing bunker! Possibly a bit more scary than the last, not a fan of heights myself. Sorry your Go Pro met it's unexpected demise, honest mistake. So cool that they even helped ya look for it. You could never look bad, regardless of how many days without a shower. You've always been so transparent and honest, one of your many great qualities that make you such a delight to watch 🙂

[@wyattoneable]

The silo/bunker was nuts. Carma worked out in the end. Great news!

[@LalaCats3]

I do love your campsite videos in the woods or on the shores, love seeing you play fetch with Blue and snuggle him. I also like the sites you go to. That 2nd AirBnB was off the chain -- all those hights and the holes in the grate floors! I would have been quaking in my boots!

[@neilchilds7555]

I enjoyed the diversion from the norm, and yeah, Gary and Raul seemed like cool guys. So glad you found the GoPro!

[@1anita1m]

Omg, I am so proud of you, for facing your fear of heights head on. You should be proud of yourself too. The tour was awesome! I love the history of it all. I am so happy you found your go pro. Love all your videos. I love Blue, he is such and awesome pup!❤ Girl, you are doing such an awesome job with all your experiences! Thanks so much for sharing! ❤

[@ResQ405A]

I'm from Santa Fe! You have to go down to the Plaza and explore the original part of the city (the city was established in 1607). The New Mexico History Museum is also there. And you HAVE to eat some famous New Mexican food. In Santa Fe go to Castro's on Cerillos Road. In Albuquerque go to Monroe's. Order your child Christmas style (red AND green).

[@friedtofubitz]

Raul seems like such a kind-hearted soul! Watching him and blue play was so wholesome and the joke about the door LMFAO classic!

[@rickbyo8643]

I’m just going to say this. I know you’re a smart woman. And you know better than anyone who you’re with and so on. But I worry when I see you in "situations” with “strangers”. I’m a dad so I guess it’s my dad radar or whatever. I know strangers are part of traveling but I’m a worrier. Take care.

@@FullyautomagicMen are not more likely to be victims of random violence. I would imagine that overall you’re probably right and men are of course victims of random violence but altercations between men are also far more likely to involve violence which contributes to that statistic. Also, that’s not to say that violent encounters don’t happen between women or between a man and a woman where the woman is the aggressor because of course they do.

[@LashleyAnder]

Omg! You are so brave!!! Keep being awesome, I’ll keep living vicariously through you and your adventures. I’m a single mom - I just got done building a pillow fort for a cougar beanie baby. That’s how exciting things are for me. 😂 love you Maria! ❤

Boy they did a great job on that air b&b. I think you could film mud puddles and we would still watch. Really you do a great job. Anyway you and your pup have a great wonderful trip and enjoy your life. Peace out

I agree❤

[@shelaghcollard6835]

Hi Maria bless your heart! You and cameras. I loved seeing the silo. I'll watch anything you put out right now. I loved it. Boy oh boy though the height. It made my tummy flip just watching lol. You were very brave. Hopefully I'll be back on the road soon. Love to Blu. Be safe and have fun.

17:44 I was going to ask if you were going to hit up the sites while in each state. Experience what the country has to offer. Doesn't even need to cost money, plenty of free things to do in each state. Sites to visit, and experiences to be had. New coffees to drink.

These last two videos have been really cool. It’s great to see the other great things on a state tour. Yea we’re enjoying the busted equipment saga too. Maybe this is why your good karma keeps coming because you keep making offerings to the universe yet stay positive. I don’t know. Stuff happens. I just enjoy that you always remember that you’re healthy Blue is safe and life is good even when the moment really sucks.

Gosh dude… I felt those heights making my hands sweat just watching this footage… Very dope and very sketchy lol!!

[@SBooher1]

Very good vlog. The bunkers were amazing, and the Air B&B was really cool. I went to Taos and Santa Fe a couple of years ago and loved it. Go see the earthship houses. And there is a hotel, can't remember the name, but they have a private room with some DH Lawrence erotic art that you pay $5 to see. Santa Fe square is really cool and the oldest house in the US is there. Lots of awesome churches too. I wanted to visit the pueblos, but they were closed to visitors due to Covid. I also missed the Georgia Okeefe museum because it is very small, and reservations are required. Have fun. So glad you got a new GoPro and saved the memory card from the other one.

If you ever get to go to the Hawaiian islands, hit me up for info on Kauai!! All the islands are amazing but Kauai is the oldest ( most beaches, 41) it’s the most lush due to the rain, like over 400 inches a year in the rain forest but doesn’t affect the whole island, even though it’s the smallest of the main ones. It packs a punch!!! I’m with you on heights!! Heart rate through the roof!!
