No, they are not just teenagers! No excuses…they are “breaking and entering” your space.

[@okiefarmerswife7154]

EXACTLY!!!!!

[@judy6416]

Agree

[@elizabethlane4617]

Yes- I agree

[@garyhogan7881]

That is unacceptable and dangerous.

[@lupe7065]

Keep your car keys close, next time set off the car alarms before going outside. Gives you time to put pants on. The noise will scare them off and alert your neighbors also

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

Wow, that is so genius! I'm always going to remember this from now on!

[@juliebolduc802]

Exactly what we do!

[@SimplyEnjoyingLife]

You guys have great attitudes. Teenagers or not, doesn't mean they can't do harm. Kids these days are so much bolder. Glad it all worked out and that you had a great time. ☺

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

So true! I can't imagine when I was younger anyone doing that!

[@dezynetyme6500]

Great attitude. We all did silly things when we were younger. Love how you guys handled the situation.

[@michellefitz4287]

As a full-time RVer, I do appreciate your honesty about the different items breaking down and having to get fixed. It happens with all RVs more or less..it’s your grateful and upbeat attitude that really really matters and shows through in this video. Wouldn’t trade the lifestyle for anything!

[@okiefarmerswife7154]

Those teenagers are lucky no one was ‘carrying’ & pulled a gun on them! These youngsters these days literally have no respect for others & their property, even in an RV park. Glad y’all are safe ❤

[@ginamaria2579]

Yeah I was just thinking the same thing 👍

[@ericarandall2692]

Teenagers should never act like that, I don’t care how old they are. You guys are so patient. Hopefully you never have to deal with that again, but if you do don’t dismiss them, hold them accountable.

[@rachelbruce3284]

Daisy looks like a Christmas gift 💝

[@carolynthompson2606]

You really need to be careful in the world we live in. A permit to carry might be something to consider. Sadly it might not be teenagers next time

[@okiefarmerswife7154]

Totally agree!

[@badgerpa9]

Your little pup is adorable, very cute cut. Teenagers still need enough punishment to learn to stop but not to destroy their lives. I had some very old skunky beer I found in my garage when cleaning a few years ago and I left that in a cooler overnight when camping. Next couple days a few young people would be seen running to the block house toilets a few times in the day. Did not intend for kids to take it, skunky beer is great for bugs, poor a small bowl about half full and keep filling and scraping out the bugs. Works great for many bugs, seems the older the beer the better. Stay safe and healthy.

[@user-jt4ku1tr2e]

OMG! You both are so lucky. I’m so glad that you are ok

[@sharonhenry343]

I’m so glad y’all have a good time despite the teenagers stealing from people. That’s incredibly scary though because if they run into the wrong person it may not end well for them. Daisy Mae looked adorable with her new haircut and bow she seems to enjoy the camper as well. ❤

[@MisterMikeTexas]

That's why parents need to do their job, and teach them not to put their hands on other people's property.

[@kagb86]

After that experience, I'd have to have cameras around the camper! 😅 So glad you two were able to enjoy the rest of the time though!

[@jomyers9523]

My in-laws go to Outdoor Resorts in Melbourne Beach and love that RV park.

[@pdavis6645]

Hey Mr & Mrs B!! I'm so happy you guys are safe and none of your belongings were stolen smh

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

Thank you girl! It was crazy! We are glad nothing was stolen too!

[@barbstormo7030]

I love your new camper! A new camper is like a new built home…something always needs to be fixed even if it is new!!! To bad about kids messing around/taking things that don’t belong to them but…I gotta say Mr. B in the middle of the night in his boxers asking those kids what they were doing…the best story ever!!! Thanks for sharing!

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

Hahaha it was a sight to see lol! And yes, always something to fix for sure!

[@MisterMikeTexas]

My dad once got his stolen hubcaps back and I'll bet the thieves had to change their shorts after they got home. He had the teen thieves at gunpoint.

[@michellekranovich8325]

Years ago my mom had her purse stolen and the guy who stole it took all of her money and returned the purse ! Crazy things happen!

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

That is crazy and so scary!! I hate that happened to her!

[@susanoswalt1169]

Ocean lakes use to have really good security you weren't allowed to be walking around after midnight and they would go up and down the roads constantly, teenagers had to have ID on them .that's crazy

Daisy on the golf cart is everything!

[@llnut4775]

Your new camper is beautiful, sorry about the AC. Oh wow those kids better be careful someone might decide to teach them a lesson. 😮

[@chelseywilliams1264]

I don't even like going to Ocean Lakes anymore. We would go with my in-laws almost every year for a few days in their camper. It doesn't matter what time of the year, there's always SO many teenagers and they are so disrespectful. Last time we went, one threw those pop rock firecrackers at my husband and hit him in the eye! I'm only 29 and I can't deal with them. They get on their parents golf carts at night, then go buck wild.

[@70foolio]

Thank you for sharing your story with thieves. I am glad you called security to notify but also learned to lock up your valuables.

[@ashleys4652]

"JUST teenagers?!?" No. They were stealing and are capable of who knows what. Edit to say I love your new RV and wish you safe and happy travels! ❤️

[@MrsK3477]

I'm actually glad you called security, I don't agree with they're just kids. They are not going to be one day and you don't mess with what is not yours or steal from people, wrong not matter what you're age is.

[@kylieburton1970]

Great camper...one thing we have always done when getting a new camper is go over it with a fine tooth comb. My husband will tighten down every bolt, make sure all seals are good and just really go over every inch of the camper. No matter what kindof camper or what price point they are slapped together so quickly that quality of work sometimes takes a backseat. You guys have the best attitude when it comes to repairs and the growing pains that come with a new camper. Living the dream!!!!

[@avalaxton3696]

Short story. Several years ago we took our camper to the Keys. We had our little Scottie Gracie with us. We were so worried about leaving her some in the camper. We bought a really heavy duty crate and my husband bolted it to the floor. Put heavy locks on the door. Not fool proof but a deterrent. We love our Scotties like you love Daisy Mae. That was always my worst fear!!

[@RVLifeInTheUSA]

So happy living on wheels is making dreams come true. Honestly in seven years we have not had any problems with neighbors but I think y'all handled everything very well. Dinner looked fantastic 🤩 Continued safe travels ❤

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

We have never dealt with that either! But glad everything is okay!

[@ec5150]

Great video, love the new camper. Can I suggest getting some removable solar motion lights for outside?

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

That is SO smart! I'm going to have Bunkey look into those! Thank you!

[@melodyjuntunen4848]

why don't you install motion-sensor lights on your camper / camp site? ...that would hopefully keep away "thugs"

[@okiefarmerswife7154]

Yes!

[@tkwhitehead8578]

On our 2022 337RLS a/c the freeze sensor was bad from the start…. Love our Grand Design. All a learning experience! In one year we stayed in 17 states, and visited 21 total. Blessed beyond measure!

[@katrinateachey1034]

Sadly camping has changed. You didn’t use to have to worry about stuff like that. Now, we keep things locked up. Also, the campers are not made the way they used to be. Hopefully things will smooth out for you guys. I have just found your videos and love you guys! Best wishes and safe travels!

[@dianalester1351]

Thankful for security and their dedication to what's right!

Next time you get "visitors", you'll have to open the door with your phone on and say something along the lines of "Smile boys, you're on Candid Camera" - lol

[@kevincameron8437]

I know what you mean with swapping campers…we upgraded from a 28’ TT to a 36’ 5th wheel and now have a lot more storage! I grew up camping at Myrtle…from Lakewood up at NMB down to Ocean Lakes back in the 80s! Now we just go to Carolina Pines a few times a year and we love it there too. Thanks again for sharing.

Love your thoughts on just being chill …very smart to go someplace close the first time out..❤️❤️

[@karenstownsend9]

There is code between campers that you don't take anything..it's a sfe zone..but sadly times have changed. At a Nascar race one time when we came back to our campers and our coolers were moved and one tipped over but they didn't take anything bc we only had waters, cokes and juices lol..they were sadly disappointed 😅

[@shirleycrittenden5544]

Camping looks fun and relaxing. Stay safe guys and enjoy your trip 😊🙏🙏🙏

[@kathyfischer5983]

You two are amazing! I love your attitudes! My daughter and her husband’s new RV had one of their air conditioners break, but it took forever to get it fixed. But all is good now, they just brought their RV to the New Jersey shore for the season last weekend. I can’t wait to visit them. My brother that lives in Florida might bring his RV up to Pennsylvania near me for a month soon. I hope he will, it would be great to have him near us for awhile! Well, happy camping, I love your new channel!

Oh my goodness i luv this.

Im happy to see you guys doing this its bitter sweet to watch but so healing for me at the same time tou both are beautiful. God bless the Bunky's

[@robylove9190]

It's so fun organizing a new camper though!! I just bought some things at TJM for ours. Got a couple baskets. I love that soap! It smells so good. Aww sweet Daisy Mae.. that's the name we had for our Doxie. Get one of those electric induction burners where you can cook on the island maybe for filming.

[@vickiepatterson1748]

Another fun trip in the camper! 😍 Unfortunately teenagers can be mischievous, I used to have several living just down the road. My mailbox got bashed in and one morning I went to my car and the backseat window had a perfect hole in it. Don't even know how they did that! It looked like a ball went straight through the window but there was nothing inside the car. When I opened the backdoor, all the glass just shattered and the backseat was covered in glass. You're very lucky that nothing was taken and Mr B apparently scared them away when he went outside in his boxers! 😯 I love that you made Alfredo sauce! It's truly one of my favorites! It looked so yummy with the chicken and broccoli, a fine christening for your new stove! Sometimes when I make Alfredo sauce, I'll put a half a block of cream cheese too and it comes out amazing! 😋 I'm really enjoying your camping trips and now I've seen the first and last ones. ☺️Now I'll go back and watch all the ones in between them!😉 Thanks for sharing another great trip (except for the young intruders)!🥰

One of my favorite things to do at Ocean Lakes is drive around on the golf cart. So many gorgeous homes to look at, AND it's fun to look at the different campers!!!

[@chasingsunsetsrv]

Yes!! That's the best part!!

[@lindaszymkiewicz5109]

Sadly, we stopped going to Ocean Lakes a few years ago. Aside from it becoming crazy busy and more pricey, security was lacking. We kept our trailer there for about 12 years and noticed security was being seen less and less. Initially they cruised the entire park on a regular basis, but at the point of leaving we hardly saw them. With all the money they make, they should put more effort to keeping guest safe and for them not have to worry about anything getting taken. You both had a good attitude. Thanks for sharing.

[@teresaboutot6546]

So glad that you have a camping channel also, we love our fifth wheel also , We have a 2021 Keystone Fuzion Toy Hauler with full body paint. It’s orange black and gray. We plan to travel once I retire but for now we bought some property to keep it on. Safe and Happy Trails.

[@matthewshull8376]

Glad ya'll didn't have too much issue with the late night visitors. We have since stopped staying at Pirateland near Ocean Lakes, because of the constant theft, and late night loud golf cart parades. We LOVE Carolina Pines, it is our new #1 favorite at the beach, and being that there is so much to do right there, we don't have to leave, except for maybe a Crazy Mason trip, lol! Have a great time there, enjoy yourselves in the new rig. We have the 2023 mid bunk Reflection, after our upgrade, quite a few small issues with it so far, but nothing I can't repair or work out.

[@dorenenagy564]

You all are too kind. I keep telling my husband people have just let things go so long we have a lot of people who think they are entitled to our belongings. I'm glad you finally called security. Now you might have 7 or 8 more times uneventful. Love your new B52! It is beautiful. 💛

[@paulaburnett1019]

Our brand new camper had electrical issues toilet issues. We didn’t have the luck of getting all our things fixed. Thankful for you guys getting the stuff fixed!

[@dianalester1351]

[@karenstownsend9]

Tip we do is take a bow dryer and check all outlets, have them run the air for a bit to make sure everything b4 we leave the lot.

[@janetmoss-s4o]

I'm a little bit surprised that Ocean Lakes allows things like that to happen was my first thought, then you said spring break! We go to MB off season mostly but once in a while forget it's spring break time before we go. All sorts of shenanigans going on! Beautiful RV by the way!

I am relating to your air conditioner not working on your new 5th wheel. Our new 5th wheel, hottest 4th of July ever & the new air conditioner stopped blowing cold. We had to pack up the food & dogs at 10pm & drive our cars home. Missed the fireworks & the rest of the weekend at our seasonal campsite. If you don't have a power surge connector on your power cord, buy one now & buy a chain lock for the surge protector. This is another story for another day.
