A question on Arvie. Can you have it search specific spots within a park? WI state park system asks how long the RV is but doesn’t narrow the site options by length. Is there a way to either eliminate sites that I know won’t work or request sites that I know do work? I hope that makes sense

“We always call these “mishaps” our remember the time” moments…… remember the time that (fill in the blank) ….Now as they happen that’s what we all call them….welp, there’s another remember the time moment….. beautiful video!!!

You are such a fun family! Don and Eileen LaMarque

[@Melissa-mz3qu]

Crazy - me and the hubby are watching your video. We had literally just said camping isn't the same without the 2 grand babies going. They are all grown up now. Believe it or not they camped with us until one was 21 and the other was 23. Like you said - after it's over its just the memories. So be sure to eat up every second with them ❤

[@marymahar8446]

I'm glad you had such wonderful experiences and memories together. They did too! ❤ Just enjoy each day and trip together now too, because when you lose your partner, you can never make any more. And you're the keeper of the memories all alone. 😢

[@jimmyrosen9424]

I live in Central Florida. A while back, I was driving somewhere local, looked up, and in front of me was an RV with a "Grateful Glamper" decal on the back.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Awesome!

[@RealProVanR]

Thanks for sharing your RV life. Just the music, memories and a Dad’s realization his little girl is prime to leave the nest - - was emotional. What a great family … what great adventures.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks so much 💙

Alaska says, People Food Forever, LOL

[@GratefulGlamper]

Yes he does, lol.

[@JeanieBooher]

I’ve been following y’all for over 2 years now and this was hands-down my favorite video from your channel. We will be taking our first camping trip for the 2024 season in about 3 weeks. This video makes me SO excited to make more memories!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@907RVing]

As you reflect on your kids growing up and the memories you all will make together. Just remember that once they grow up and have kids then that adventure begins for more memories. With 3 kids that are adults now. Plus 2 grandkids life is never dull. 😊

[@gordduncan5859]

Dogs love human food they don't normally get; it's a treat! My Corgi thought that anything that hit the floor was hers; almost got a cactus.

[@nrompot]

Thank you so much for this video! I loved how you spoke about pushing through difficulties, figuring things out and making it work. I especially loved how you talked about spending time with kids/family while you can. Our kids are 19 and 17 and we may be coming into our LAST summer this year. Gotta enjoy these moments while you can! THANK YOU for being so real and genuine in your videos, especially this one! You guys rock!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks so much for the kind words and yes, spend as much time as you can (while you can) with family!

You barely scratched surface there . Put in of of 27 and do a down river paddle hitting all the springs . Arrange a shuttle back from Bowman 's Landing . O'Leno State Park where the Santa Fe River disappears underground and reappears three miles away . Beautiful heavily wooded park with all kinds of trails . Ichetucknee State Park , one of the most beautiful spring runs in state of Florida . If that is not enough , the Suwannee River Stare Park a short distance away . All iconic Florida , just highlights

[@darlenebrown9955]

We seem to run out of toilet paper a lot when we go camping. And we go through a lot of the same things you all go through. All of us are just human. And we will all make mistakes in our lifetime. But it is fun to camp. I would rather camp than eat. Y’all are a wonderful family keep doing what you are doing. Great job.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thank you 💙

Prefer videos like this one. The hacks and suggestion vids are good but would prefer more travel episodes. Thanks for sharing with us!

Love this video. Very peaceful and love the music that played in between. Love how funny the father was when he was drying off with the towel, that was cute and made me laugh.

[@MrAlbarry51]

Great episode! We all make mistakes and camping is no exception. Florida has some great camping and the app. you shared looks like it can help campers find a campsite. Thanks so much for sharing.

When working for a summer camp as a Tripper took some campers to an island not even an acre in size. Discovered that I forgot the can opener and opened the spaghetti with a hatchet; ended up wearing some of the spaghetti! Always carry one of those teensy folding can openers!

We stayed in the same site back in January - Talk about cold.... We enjoyed the park. Very nice Spring. Good to see that you had a nice visit.

[@cathegallimore]

I so wish I would have thought to do this when my girls were younger. I think a lot of bad things that happened to my oldest daughter possibly wouldn't have happened. I never thought of living full-time in an RV until the last couple of years. Now, I can't wait to retire and get an RV and get on the road. Thank you for all of your informative videos. I know more of what we will need when we start.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for watching and best wishes

[@paynow1228]

Love to watch your journeys ! I will soon be driving mine....Thanks.

[@dondartt684]

The TSD card allows us to use the truck pump. This is so much better than the automobile pump with all diesel big rigs or towing. This makes the card invaluable when filling. As far as the price, it saves money, but when not towing there are more options available and with cash back from the credit card sometimes just as cheap or cheaper.

[@Liimpy]

I like to fry up big batches ot ground beef and freeze some and keep some in the fridge, its great mixed with mac and cheese, rice a roni, zatarans etc.. any kind of rice really.. makes a quick meal super easy

What a fun adventure. I'm thankful y'all are still making some adventure videos. I know they don't do as well as How To Videos, or Top 10 product videos, but these are more enjoyable to watch. How do you like that smaller lid on the Blackstone? Do you ever close that down over something that is cooking? I've got the bigger lid, but it's such a space waster.

[@GratefulGlamper]

We like our smaller Blackstone much better! The lid really isn’t meant to be used as a lid for cooking. But we do still occasionally use it that way anyway.

[@arbonneladyTN]

@@GratefulGlamperThanks for sharing, and letting us all in on it. One of our favorite camping memories with our 4 kids (14-4y/o) … we had a 36’ TT then. Hubby had to get back to work when we drove from s/e NM to Bay area CA, so the kids & I spent 6 weeks all over Northern CA. (In 2000) We met along the way; 1) A man who lived through Nazi Germany during WW2, and how he (11-13y/o) helped his uncle with the underground! He helped save Americans, English & Jews by the hundreds! 2) and 1 man who was Navy in Pearl Harbor. The Japanese Zeros flew right over his hut, since he was at the top of the mountain he was the first one to see them! He took over a stray Jeep and rescued the injured all during the attack! He and many others, lived on the beach for two weeks thinking the Japanese were coming back! Both men sat down with our kids & I, telling us a lot of stories and their life. Homeschooling & traveling bring history to life! We have had lots of adventures & mis-adventures since starting RV’ing in ‘92…and we continue to do so!!

[@gingercrowe4580]

Thanks for the Arvie referral. I've been trying to get a spot in Arkansas for the Eclipse. Within 36hrs Arvie had me booked!

[@SpykersB]

Dam is the word! Running out of dog food, cause now every time mac n cheese is cooking you'll get the sad eyes of "ooooh come on! Pleeease!", 😂. Btw, Kleenex is fine for a back up toilet paper, paper towel would be a concern. It's a holding tank not a septic tank. Use more water! Lol 🍻

[@RVthereyetmemaw]

What tank flush do you use? How often do you use it? Do you fill half way or almost full?

[@GratefulGlamper]

We have a built in tank flush and we use Clear It (from Unique Camping + Marine) 2x per year for a “deep” tank clean

Our very 1st trip in the camper, found out the TV cable in the camper doesn't work and has to be wired direct bringing the staff out. Then the hot water didn't ignite having to call the tech that was in the park. Charged me $150 for the call and another $50 to clean cobwebs from the propane tube and another $10 for the fuse that blew. I now take that tube apart every time before starting. Did find bugs in there a few times.

In 1974 Dad bought a used Fan trailer that had a freezer fire. It had the kitchen in the middle with the table in front. The bunks were next and then the bathroom. Our first camping trip we went to the Chesapeake Bay somewhere in VA. My sister who was 7 and I was 10 were sent with Dad to go fishing. It was Thanksgiving 1974 and my Mom made an entire turkey dinner in that trailer. Fast forward 50 years and Mom and Dad and my sister have all passed but the memories I pass on to the next two generations are priceless. The kids cannot believe all the mishaps along the way. (Like replacing 3 tires on the truck and 3 on the trailer....in within 2 days. Or going to Niagra Falls, we stayed there when I was a teen. Fast forward 30 years, we go back to the same campground. My dad's truck on both trips lost the water pump. Two different trucks, 30 years apart and the guy at the garage remembered my Dad! Or one last one he had a trailer where the lights kept grounding out and then he lost the alternator in his truck. Sailed right through a red light-thank goodness he was clear-and into a truck stop. My sister and I were following in my truck and were astonished he did. He drove truck his entire career and we could not understand why he would have done that! Oh the stories were great conversations at the Holiday dinners. Especially now there is a new generation to teach about camping. And stories to witness. Love your channel and my Dad would have as well. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

I have been going to this spring sinse I was a kid. So 40 years. Cheaper now to get in but I actually preferred it when it was privately owned. It was better maintained then. There was a beautiful elevated walk way that you could walk down to the river on an more. The biggest difference now, you wont get yelled at if you are a paddleing down the river and need to pull in off the river just to use the bathroom while you are 6 months pregnant and too scared to pee in the river 😅.

Which Garmin RV GPS model did you buy ?

[@tamimoore9169]

Table scraps are better for your dog than quote "dog food". I make all my own dog food for my baby. Main recipe is 1 pound of ground turkey and 1 12 oz. bag of frozen peas & carrots. Brown the ground turkey, mix in peas & carrots then divide into containers and serve. My baby is a small Shorkie and so we get 6 - 8 meals from this recipe. Cost is approximately 20 cents per oz. vs. $1.45 per oz. of Cesar Simply Crafted Chicken, Carrots & Green Beans Limited-Ingredient Wet Dog. Of course, this is my opinion 😊

Beautiful park; however, after living in central Florida for six years, and south Florida for two, I'd never go into lakes, ponds, rivers, unless absolutely clear, and no sign of gators, snakes. And the ocean, not unless heavily monitored for sharks and jellyfish! Otherwise, it's the pool for me.

Don't worry 'bout the big guys. "Brain eating bacteria" can flourish unseen in warm fresh water, and migrate up through the eye sockets and nasal passages to attack the brsin. Unless you catch this very quickly, it actually crosses into the brain and kills you. Yes, this ha happened last year in Florida. They're spreading as the temperatures go up.

As a 57 yo Arizonan.....I am the same way! lol (except for the ocean - I run right in.
