WHO ARE WE?
We are Bob and Hillary, from Chandler, AZ. We have raised our kids (they are in college) bought the house, worked the 9-5, and now we are in our 40s finding out that what we really want is time and freedom more than anything! So we bought a van (1st step) and for now take epic road trips. Eventually though we could see ourselves doing this full time. At this point we have bought a Thor Rize 18T and quickly found out that it was to small for us (we are both over 6 feet tall) and so we traded it in for our current van a Thor Tellaro 20A. This van while brand new has given us lots of headaches...Who knew buying a brand new van would lead to having to fix everything!? This has us thinking that eventually we want to build out a van...more to come later on that 😉
What is our WHY? Why do we want to share it with you? The biggest reason is we have had some hard times and lost very dear people in our life which has caused us to want to make the most out of every moment we are given! Our goal is to inspire everyone to chase their dreams no matter their age and season of life, to help people see the behind the scenes of a couple doing that very thing! And if we can help you achieve your very own home on wheels that's icing on the cake! #couplevlog #vanlifeadventures #vanlifeusa #vancaskeys #vanlife #tellaro20a #thorrv #bucketlist

I can imagine Bob you having an ear to ear grin zipping around in that 4 wheeler reliving your younger you memories! Lovely heart felt video make me smile!

[@Vancaskeys]

Thanks for watching and enjoying! It was a great time!

[@hideawayhomesllc5103]

59 degrees with a blanket? That's perfect sleeping temperature!

[@Vancaskeys]

Haha! Brrrr ❄️🥶

[@jim-uu2db]

I see where Bob gets his emotional stability to overcome problems.

[@Vancaskeys]

😃😃😃

[@merrienelson1002]

I am 76 years of age and I loved when you were at your grandma and grandpa’s. I live in Florida but I lived 72 years in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.

[@Vancaskeys]

Oh wow! That’s awesome! Bob got his love for RVing from them…they spent every winter in Florida in their RV for 25 years after they retired. ❤️

[@TexasChance58]

This was so just so sweet. As grandparents to grown children, I hope some day they will come back and see us - even if they live far, far away. Now I wanna see your wedding photos! :)

[@Vancaskeys]

They are the best! Wedding photos…let me see if I can dig them up!

[@saintEmory]

Fantastic video with the grandparents, you guys are so blessed to have them around. Beautiful editing and tour of the home. It warmed my heart seeing this love for family. You deserve the best and are such a loving family.

[@Vancaskeys]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@hippiechick_fl]

Thank you for sharing! Bob has everyone's dream grandparents and it's just heartwarming to see the love. And loved the scenery as well- I am a Florida girl born and raised, and I was freezing just watching! I'd have been sitting in the car at Red's. Lol.

[@Vancaskeys]

Awww thank you ❤️

[@dianejimenez8327]

Hello 🤗Bob and Hillary .. What a great video!!! Thank you ..to you both for sharing your trip!!! It's S0ooo..beautiful ... in Michigan!!! Cold 🥶 yes....... It feels like Christmas ...🎄❄️ 😁😊❤️Nice !!! 👍👍👍

[@Vancaskeys]

Thanks Diane! ❤️ Happy Thanksgiving!

[@Squarekn0t]

Silly goose from Arizona, it may have some gas left but when the temp drops below 28' it doesn't want to leave the tank. I just went out to grill some pork chops here in Delaware, the temp was 42' and my tank gauge showed low pressure even though I know it is 3/4 filled. Went inside and used the Forman grill! Now I know why 60% of the old people in Michigan and Minnesota live in the VILLAGES in Florida!

[@Vancaskeys]

😂😂😂 good to know!

[@cj9667]

Oh brrrrrrrr! Fun times with the family..love the bird house…signed and all! Safe travels

[@Vancaskeys]

Haha! We were such complainers 😅❄️🥶

[@sgtzilla58]

This is an awesome video , that’s for taking us along .

[@Vancaskeys]

Thank you!

[@donaldparry5157]

Hail the arrival of Spring? No longer chasing it; lost it!

[@jeremypoehls]

This is my favorite episode of the trip so far...especially Bob playing tag with the drone in the field!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Vancaskeys]

Haha! Thanks Jeremy!

[@randelpompey3545]

That is so cool. It’s like old home week. Good to see Jen and Natalie

[@Vancaskeys]

It was fun!

[@crazy4monkeez77]

Just started watching this and am soooo excited. I live in Kalamazoo! Red's is delicious and a family favorite. And we are blessed to have multiple apple farms in the area. Fresh, warm donuts are a seasonal must! Can't wait to finish watching to see where else you go!

[@Vancaskeys]

No way! You live in Kalamazoo! So awesome! What a small world!

[@crazy4monkeez77]

@@Vancaskeys Just finished your video. I loved seeing you at your grandparents house! Riding the quad around the property. And I know it was chilly but you picked the perfect time of year to visit with the colors changing. Bummer about the propane but thankfully you missed the storm we got last week. I was shoveling 14 inches of snow off my front deck and we got another 6 inches after that. I may have winterized my rv on lunch on Thursday, 12 hours before the storm hit. Probably shouldn't have waited so long. 😁

[@Vancaskeys]

@@crazy4monkeez77 I can’t believe you guys got so much snow!!!!! Crazy!!

[@heidilitke]

I cannot stop laughing. When it says empty….it’s empty. Ha!

[@Vancaskeys]

😂😂😂

[@karenkelly1451]

You guys need one of those blankets that keeps you warm down to 0 degrees.

[@Vancaskeys]

True!

[@darren5049]

Another excellent video ! well done !

[@Vancaskeys]

Thank you so much!

[@jdc212]

So...did people show for the big festival 🎉 Probably would have been a different experience if the grapes were on, the restaurant was good and cheaper than the wine.😊

[@Vancaskeys]

We saw like two cars show up. 😬

[@jdc212]

@@Vancaskeys Would have been nice had they knocked on your door and offered some leftovers! 😄

[@Vancaskeys]

@@jdc212 true! LOL
