Well if you can't get out and explore our beautiful country, the next best thing is watching Robert's videos.

[@dannywhitlock8309]

Hi, Robert ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I always enjoy watching your adventures, great content, beautiful scenery and amazing drone footage 👍🏻 I love hiking the trails it just makes you feel so good breathing all that mountain air and the smell of the forest, awesome views of the Smokey Mountains, lakes and rivers, also watching your cooking show in the RV looked so good. Thanks for sharing, enjoy and have a Great week !!! Happy New Year to you and your family !!! Danny

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you Danny, Happy New Year!

[@boboneil949]

Used to camp a lot in the North Georgia mountains when my wife was alive, l lots of great memories, Thank You

[@addjen1972]

I live in Habersham County, so I get to visit these wonderful places often. I loved this video. I think it's the best one of our area that I've seen.

[@heloise121]

My husband Vaughan bought me one of your Free in my RV stickers as a Christmas gift. You have been an inspiration to us, and we love watching your adventures and take on life from our home in the UK. Thank you Robert for also sharing the story of your exit from Cuba. :)

[@holden9474]

I really liked the cooking segments you had in this video.

[@michaelmerck7576]

He cooks like I do ,by taste and not much measuring

[@TerryB751]

Wonderful adventure. It really gives you respect for all the workers that build the infrastructure for these trails and observation areas in the mountains. It must really be tough bringing all the men and materials to these areas in order to allow the rest of us to enjoy it.

[@kennethblackwell1137]

Kool...."Georgia's always on my mind" We live in AL, but have made many trips to GA....North, South and in between. We visited-camped in the same area, including Brasstown Bald..in October of 2018....but one of our most indelible memories took place about 50 yrs ago when we tent camped at Vogel...had ice in the bucket, the next morning....smile. No more tents these days....21 ft Micro Minnie...ha, ha. Great job on the video...as usual.

[@kellyuf87]

Vogel state park is a real gem! I’d love to go back soon.

[@timlist4173]

I bet that view (9:15) would be beautiful in the fall as the trees are turning.

[@rockytop5654]

Thank You Robert. Watched your Sunday video and now I feel layed back and ready to go out and explore. Please sometime find time to visit the Ozark Mountain Country. Northern Arkansas and southern Missouri. actually a ancient plateau that rain water and streams have eroded down to the present. Lots to see visit the sites and lakes follow the white river. Visit Monarch Springs Cavern. Trout fishing and of course the lake of the Ozarks and Branson Missouri. If you like the mountains in the south east you will love this country. Stop in and canoe the current river near Rolla Missouri.

[@WorldBluegrassDay]

Another great episode. An area you should check out is the Blue Ridge Parkway between Asheville and Blowing Rock. Blowing rock is a small town you’d probably enjoy. Another area is Highlands, NC - lots of waterfalls in the area.

[@TravelingRobert]

Hopefully soon

[@WorldBluegrassDay]

Traveling Robert when you do let me know if you have any questions about the area. Spend a lot of time along the Blue Ridge Parkway in NC hiking and visiting the small towns.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

Will be visiting there this summer. Have reservations. Brasstown Bald is a fav stop.

[@alwalker2592]

Robert, My name is AL from Atlanta...... I have been following you for a while sir you have show and taking me all over the USA and part of the other world I would have never gotten a chance to see I love your detail exploring where ever you go my most exciting part of your trip and time are when you cook in Minitini and fly the drone I love what you do man I especially like when you and your wife go out to eat show and tell the different place you eat if you like and don't like and I turn my friends and family on to your channel they have all subscribed to your channel and I am getting ready to purchase a Minitini hoody from your merchandise . I love what you do sir and how you do it you are great you are to me the G.O.A.T. in what you do and how you do it....Love you man take care.

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you so much Al.

[@1218kimber]

Thanks Robert! Was hoping you'd do a GA mountain trip since I'm contemplating moving there. ☺

[@eleanormassaro5195]

Welcome to my happy place! I first came to the Blairsville area back in 2004 and fell in love with the area and have been coming mostly in the fall and sometimes in the summer every year except for maybe one or two years in the last 16 years. I was actually there at the end of October, beginning of November 2019 for a few days. I love Vogel State Park and I love Brasstown Bald. I usually stay in a little cabin community called Highland Falls in the Owltown area between Vogel State Park and Blairsville. Again, it is my favorite place to visit!😁❤️

[@conniesueadamsadams4092]

I would love to live there.small town it is Beautifull.

[@eleanormassaro5195]

[@shep1555]

Hi Robert! Funny that you were at Brasstown Bald on Thanksgiving and I was at Lake Chatuge in Hiawassee! We were only a few miles apart! It was a gloriously beautiful day, the weather was awesome.

[@rudfil]

The views of Chatuge Lake and Hiawassee from your drone were just beautiful..(...your drone makes the video look like you're flying )

[@davidshkoler4126]

One of your best. Loved the cooking show!

[@deepnature6117]

That paved switch back trail at Brasstown bald is no joke. My family and I took several “breaks” walking up that trail and then my girls got mad with me when they figured out we could have taken the shuttle up to the top lol. By the way, when you feel alone in the woods of the GA mountains and you hear banjo music....RUN!!!! Lol.

[@TravelingRobert]

Banjo? :-) That was a tough hike to my untrained legs

[@eleanormassaro5195]

Deep Nature I can definitely relate to that, but after a certain time in November, the shuttles aren’t available until spring time, I believe

[@TravelingLifeofBrian]

Sir, you have convinced me to take a trip to Georgia very soon

[@lydialangfordjoiner765]

Travels of Brian Ga. has it all: Mountains, foothills plains, marshes, beaches and islands! We also have beautiful rivers and lakes. You won’t regret traveling here,🤓

[@conniesueadamsadams4092]

I go there every year Ga. Is so Beautifull.The mountains are wonderful..A wonder in all eyes.And the small towns are so pretty. Please visit .Iam a resident of Tenn.And I love Ga.

[@michaelmerck7576]

I have just retired and your videos are very helpful and inspjring.i have driven most of my working days ,maybe now I can actually pull in and visit many of the places that I could only see in passing through

[@vivio.g.4693]

I’ve been binge watching all your videos while home bound. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@haroldbevins393]

Robert, you were talking about sweating in 40 degree weather, but watching you run up and down the mountains, and then knowing how you had to have crossed the creek (done that many times, sometimes not so successfully), you were causing me to work up a sweat thinking you were going to fall in some where.. But then you pulled it off just like the pro you are... Great video of Georgia...

[@Guzzirodo]

Welcome to my neighborhood. Enjoy the southern hospitality.

[@TravelingRobert]

Love the southern hospitality

Thanks Mr. Robert

[@davidlane9990]

Thank. You for all of the great videos

[@stickin2it]

When you got that shot of the sun setting while going to the water fall at Vogel, there is a hill just below the sun with a clearing on top. That is the top of Bear Hair Trail. Very great view, very nice hike. Great Video!! Been going every since I was a kid, going in March 2019.

[@colinblake24]

This travel video has everything. Love the cooking segment.

Gooooood morning Robert! Thank you for the new video. This video was an unexpected treat. We were recently up in the Blairsville/Blue Ridge/Murphy area recently. It is a beautiful area to visit. Have a great day. Fly pelican fly! 🌴

[@sweetheartmary51]

Im glad you have a sense of direction. I always get turned around with new areas!

[@PastorDanWhite]

Beautiful mountain drive.

[@5cyc]

Beautiful scenery, we have a renewed vigor to get out and do some rv travel. We down sized from a 36footer to a 20 and will be checking out some of those places you visited in north Georgia. Thanks Robert, excellent video

[@thegoodbible8270]

State Parks seem more affordable and better suited for RV's than many RV parks.

[@ckrumm2112]

Live just outside Dahlonega and ride motorcycles and hike all the area in this video. You get back to the area let me know. So much more to see, some not really known by others.

[@kend3900]

Excellent thanks for producing

[@TravelingRobert]

You're welcome

[@clifdavis9013]

My favorite area of the state. My Dad lives about 10 min. from Vogel S.P. It’s a very difficult park to get a spot at. Stays booked up, especially since they’ve renovated the campground and added sewer hookups and WIFI.

[@camperab]

Thanks for taking me along. Happy New Year from Germany.

[@bobpeg7457]

This is what Peggy and I do. We search out waterfalls to visit. From Michigan's UP to New Mexico and every where in between. .Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the sky views, that is my driving route when I commute back and forth to my main office in Dalton Ga from Easley SC. I love that route, we plan on doing a lot of camping this spring in our Little Guy Mini Max. Do the ride up to Clayton Ga, that is a nice ride with some good views.

[@kristiejacobs4854]

Love your adventure videos! No better way to unwind after crazy work days!

[@jasonbergeron6347]

Hey hey nice surprise video! Good job on the hiking buds. Getting to that last hike is exactly why you have a truck now. Try back packing with the drone sometime and put it in sport mode to follow you. You should be able to set the altitude at which to follow you. That would be some cool shots and angles. Thanks for the excellent VLOG as always.

[@eliciaburton4862]

Good morning, yeah a new traveling Robert, great cooking segment, and you hiked to waterfalls, and up to the top of Bald...beautiful drone segments. I thought it was good that you slowed down and took two nights at the State Park Campgrounds. Great Fun!
