Will our ARB survive Hurricane Sally -Runaway Camper Adventures

[@gerardbauer4035]

Tropical storms are a way of life in Florida. We get some nasty thunder storms too. I'm surprised there weren't more surfers out. Looks like the ARB held up really good. Sorry Sally put a damper on your vacation but you weathered it like a pro :) All is well that ends well. Thank you for sharing! Stay safe.C U Wed :)

[@Hanginwithherky]

We still had a great time but don’t think September is the best time of year to visit Florida

[@realtalk1278]

This was better than the weather channels! Great video y'all.🤘🏽🔥🔥🔥

[@Hanginwithherky]

We won’t be doing that again :)

[@maryv7495]

Herky looks so nice in his summer haircut! No camping trip is complete without a good storm. Take care!

[@maryv7495]

Try a ground sheet that is slightly smaller than the tent walls

[@Hanginwithherky]

Lately we can’t out run the rain.

[@brendanoren5047]

Thanks for the reality check. Even though I live on the east coast of Florida and have gone through many tropical storms and hurricanes in my life, I’m done with them now. I’m getting myself a Runaway shortly and will commence my travels with my little dog. Peace with y’all.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Adventure Ahead !

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

I LOVE your little Runaway camper! We're all about keeping the camper small. The tent attachment you have is amazing. We need to get one of those! I love how it adds extra space. So funny they're grilling during a tropical storm. That would have scared me that the ocean got that close to the park. I would have to agree with Nancy and stayed in the camper LOL. It's really too bad the zippers leaked. But least it stayed together. That says a lot. Thanks for sharing.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Thanks, we are all safe and sound. Happy this the ARB for sure. We are really into small campers it looks like you have one also. Thanks for watching

[@1sthawkfeathers547]

I love your attitude! But being an old Floridian, I would have packed everything up and be ready to evacuate. We have had 50mph inland winds here in North Florida in April. It blew me against my van and slammed the door against my hand. Man oh man ! You two were something else. 😅😁 Blessings from Meema and Jessi Beagle. Hoping to settle in with a Runaway Camper later this year.

[@maureeni2648]

Definitely stories and memories to hold on to riding out that storm ⛈!!! Ed, you could have used some windshield wipers on your glasses 👓 with all that rain! Lol Glad you guys were ok !

[@54bonkers]

Glad you survived Sally! Quite a camping experience!

[@Hanginwithherky]

We can now say we have camped in all kinds of weather

[@deniesekline-thatcher8380]

Oh my goodness 😅😂🤣🤔🙃😜 Thanks for sharing with us ! Now I know I never want to continue a vacation in Florida during a hurricane! I am amazed at what you two were able to survive ! Now stay safe & have fun!

[@Hanginwithherky]

We did just fine but won’t be doing that again.

[@eutimiochavez415]

Glad u made it out ok. Thanks for the video.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Thanks for watching

[@JudiChristopher]

WOW... This is an EXCELLENT VIDEO... Okay... I seriously need to know if you REALLY like this ARB... I am 68 getting ready to move back to Albuquerque, New Mexico (US) ... I am going to be in my Vintage 1972 Travel Trailer (17' long)... and NEED an Extra room on it desperately. But I want a really good extra room. It has been a long time since I was a "CAMPER"... can you give me tips and tricks for my journey. Thank you both for such a great video... Happy New Year. (Dec. 31 2022)

[@Hanginwithherky]

We love the ARB and attached room. It was a great addition to our camper. Look under the playlist section on our channel you can find tons of travel videos and we give lots of tips along the way. Thanks for visiting our channel

[@JudiChristopher]

@@Hanginwithherky Thank you so much.

[@travelingwithmugsy]

Wow! Looked like a tense night. ARB held up great.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Yes but the next day was awesome hanging out with you guys.

[@skippyjones2077]

Hey guys hope you’re doing well today that was awesome great shots of the lightning 🌩 you guys take care.. ❤️🙏

[@Hanginwithherky]

Thanks we really liked those shots. Thanks for watching

[@clermontcubby9207]

Wow. At least you have the beach all to yourselves.

[@Hanginwithherky]

That’s true

[@elizabethlefever9205]

Wil be buying shower curtains for the outside zippers and little clamps to hold them on. Ty.

[@dalecunningham9946]

Talked to Ed once by email, my husband and I love your blogs. We are in Florida by Tampa.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Thanks for watching our vlogs we enjoy doing it.

[@chuckborghoff8443]

Oh you crazy kids!

[@Hanginwithherky]

Crazy for sure.

[@CampingTherapy]

Wow, you're braver than me! I would of probably moved to a motel. I'm so glad it went well and you didn't have any damage. A story to tell at the next campfire. :)

[@Hanginwithherky]

We have a good story for sure

[@msgtjim4692]

Quite the experience and it all held up pretty well. Just wondering to myself that if you waxed the zippers if that wouldn't help hold out some if not most of the moisture. Not really a suggestion, just a thought. Thanks for sharing.

[@Hanginwithherky]

That’s a good idea I will try that. Thanks for watching

[@kem4690]

Wow!! Is the ARB room attached to ARB awning?

[@Hanginwithherky]

Yes it’s a add on tent from ARB

[@cdlady54_95]

What is your tow vehicle! I know it's a Ford. Thank you for sharing Jim Cantori Jr!! 🤣😂. Glad you guys did great and survived mad sally!

[@Hanginwithherky]

We have a Ford Escape but it has the 2.0 eco boost

[@diegovamanos6770]

I just found this video, very informative as all of your videos are. What/how did you make the wind block that you attached under the camper? I never would have thought of that until I saw this video. My Ranger Runner will be ready for pick up in mid-March '22, can't wait to receive it.

[@kathiemoore1203]

What is the name of the RV park? Love that they have a dog beach.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Red Coconut Ft Myers Beach Florida

[@donpappas3205]

"Nobody is coming out in this mess." Ed: Hold my coffee. :)

[@Hanginwithherky]

Ha, you know me Don go big or go home.

[@johnnyc1227]

Who's music?

[@kennethdittig2986]

any idea on the wind speed? mph? i am considering one but it will be out in some wind

[@Hanginwithherky]

It was in the 40s the hurricane was actually off shore. I would not recommend keeping it up in wind like this but we survived just fine. You have to anchor them down good if you have any wind.

[@kennethdittig2986]

@@Hanginwithherky i has een other vids where the poles extending out from the camper have bent in wind, did yours bend? iam not sure if i want to go with a roof top tent on my teardrop. but they hold up well in high winds,

[@JOSERIZALADVENTURES]

I had days like this

[@Hanginwithherky]

That was something we don’t want to do again for sure

[@jcole22370]

Do not worry about looks do what you have to. To stay dry i had to leave louisiana twice as they closed the parks then both storms went some where else I stayed at my sisters and i am leaving the 5 the to go to ocala to have my camper calked then NC the to 40 to do a little of 66 then OKC then back ti Louisiana to vote and the Buccaneer Rally

[@Hanginwithherky]

Love 66 have fun!

[@johnphillips3526]

I hope you had some LoveBoat ice cream while you were there!

[@Hanginwithherky]

Seen the place but did not check it out. We will remember that for next time

[@ronaldrorick5282]

Wow big is ur ARB a. Awing

[@Hanginwithherky]

10 x 10

[@orlandobabe]

I would've hooked up a wind turbine to power up some of my electronics.

[@Hanginwithherky]

Truth !

[@leslieladyhawke]

Couldn’t y’all just have left, gone back north? Id be terribly scared of having to endure a tropical storm in any camper!

[@Hanginwithherky]

The storm was heading north. We actually made the best decision by just riding it out. If I had it to do all over again we would have rolled up the awning but it was to late by the time we realized it.

[@leslieladyhawke]

Hangin with Herky Oh I see! So glad y’all were ok though! The awning company ought to give you a sponsorship! Haha

[@yrusam2]

Can tell you don’t live in hurricane territory. People die in storms by trees falling on them even in vehicles. Or flying debris. Not to mention flying awnings. Tent probably wasn’t wisest choice. Viewers don’t do this. Impressed with awning though.

[@Hanginwithherky]

We kept a close eye on the weather and were in constant communication with the folks at the RV park.
