In this video we find a local spot to camp in the van where we had to pay for a campsite for the first time! We make tacos and deal with crazy raccoons that wanted our food!

Rocky the Raccoon stole the show. He was definitely working it during your stay at the campground . What a bargain for the campsite and you had the campground to yourself . Liked the window cover for mosquitoes and the step cover for getting in the van. Your van is really coming around 😍 can't wait for more trips .

Kudos for not feeding the raccoon! Gotta let nature do its thing

[@feliciafullwood]

Of course! Poor thing seemed like it was used to people feeding it which was a bummer. Ended up realizing she was a hungry momma raccoon!

[@brianandheatheroutdoors]

It made my heart so happy when you picked up the garbage 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 also. The raccoon 😂 OMG!

[@feliciafullwood]

The racoon was insane!!!! Felt bad bc it was a hungry mama but damn!! She wouldn’t leave us alone. Just perched in the tree above us watching us 👀😂

[@BrianLackey]

Such a fun trip/raccoon safari! Yeah, being able to go out exploring on weekdays is just the absolute best, especially when you're looking for any sort of solitude in nature. Jealous of the van as always :) And I hear you on the photography slump; I think those are inevitable. Long road trips to new places are one of the best cures though!

[@feliciafullwood]

Thanks! To be honest I hadn’t seen much in Michigan minus detroit until a few years ago & that’s honestly what sparked my love for car camping! Definitely ready for more long term travel tho, and to finally see the PNW!!

[@riversandcoffee]

Great adventure with lots of information... Really enjoyed your filming as well...very fun, thanks ✌️

[@ModernDayPilgrim]

Great video! So glad you guys could get out for the night! No apologies needed, it’s nice to switch it up once in a while! I can’t wait to hit the road myself! Have a fabulous weekend!! 😃🙌🏼💯

[@feliciafullwood]

Ahh thank you SO much! Really means the world to hear that! So glad you enjoyed it! It’s always nice to get out even if it’s local, I’m excited for you to hit the road too!! 🙌🏼❤️

[@vwald]

"Live a Great Story".. :) Love that! just found your channel.. #Michigan ;) I've been car camping for a few years... and noticed you don't have window covers !!!.. Privacy is everything! I recommend reflectix!.. I just cut to size, put some spray glue on one side and covered it in black material.... oh.. and a curtain across the front.. its a game changer! Keep campin!

[@feliciafullwood]

Thank you so much! Really appreciate your kind words! We are actually starting our window coverings as we speak so don’t worry, I wouldn’t go without them! Really appreciate your feedback and glad you found the channel! Happy camping to you! ⛺️

[@travelsuperyoutubechannel9474]

Cute video thanks

[@audioman6565]

Cool video! Glad you guys tried a camping ground. There are some really good ones and of coarse over populated ones as well. I find it all depends the time of the season you go. Fall and winter most people don't go due to weather but that's our preferred time to go.

[@feliciafullwood]

Yes I can’t believe our luck with us being the only ones! There’s lots of good campgrounds up north and in the UP but not a ton of options down here but this spot was awesome! Fall is definitely my favorite time to camp as well! Thanks again for watching :)

[@mdmurray550]

What campground???

[@bettyreiter7473]

We enjoy watching your KZbin videos. However, you talk so fast that we can’t hear or catch all you’re saying.

[@feliciafullwood]

Thank you so much for watching and for the feedback! You’re right, I talk so fast in these videos and is something I’m really trying to work on. I think I still get a little nervous when I talk to the camera but I really am trying to get better at it & hopefully will be easier to understand me! Thank you again for watching!

my dear deer maybe you were among our furry friends in a past life thus avoiding people and love nature, be compassionate towards your little brothers of the forest.
