You have the most beautiful photography of all the bloggers I watch. I’d be emotional, too, and have been when I lost my grandpa, both grandmas and now both my parents. I’m now 62 and a grandma myself, but the older you get, more loved ones and friends pass away and it’s the hardest part of growing older.

I'm 63 and lost my dad two years ago April 26, 2020 at the age of 91. My mother is still alive and just celebrated her 91st birthday and I am living in her house, not mine, and her memory is going. It's hard to watch a person slowly mentally degrade. The photography in this video is why I love the canyonlands of the west. Absolutely the most beautiful. I am a model train buff which is why van life would never work for me. I am trying to build a model railroad which incudes scenes like Ruby Canyon in western Colorado.

The only good thing about getting old is Grandchildren. I said this to our Chaplain at our walking football at Liverpool in the community and Bill is his name a very inspirational man, as he walked off injured I enquired are you ok Bill, his reply yes just a old injury and I said, Bill the only good thing about getting old is grandchildren and his reply was, I have five grandsons and if I had known how good it was being a grandparent, I would have had them first.

I grew up on RV/Van holidays and there is a story of when my older sister was around 3 or 4 and my parents had found a very nice and quiet spot for the night and then were joined by a huge ship of an RV that had a super loud generator running. They parked super close even though there was so much space. Sadly for them my father knows his electronics and told my sister - who fit in the crawl space - which plug to take out for the generator to stop running. Sometimes I appreciate my fathers shamelsessness 😂 Thank you for your content and the honesty - I really appreciate all your videos no matter how (rightfully) dramatic they might be.

Newbie here. Wow, those views were spectacular! The full rainbow your grandpa sent you, there are no words for. Thank-you! Being emotional is perfectly alright. I subscribed.

Ive been wanting to travel this way for awhile. Watched a lot of vids but your channel is by far the best. Your breakdowns and tips are so on point. Your inviting and u keep it short and to the point. You pushed me to do it now.. Thanks again. Introverts are the best
