[@TheGlampingGuys]

Gamble Rogers State Park Anastasia State Park Fort Desoto Campground

[@Fuggnuggify]

We're the Russos you guys should come up north and visit Crater lake here in oregon.

[@robertkelly1357]

In the Tahoe area, Fallen Leaf Lake...right outside of South shore on the way to Emerald Bay...is great. Also of Highway 50 heading to Sacramento (still in the Sierras), Loon Lake, Icehouse, Gerle Creek. All of these are in the high country and stunning.

[@socks1949]

Good to see you folks doing so well. Leo is happy.

[@matthewnewell584]

There are two things I look forward to watching each week. Game of Thrones and The Russos. Your edits are getting better and better! Keep up the great work!

[@Weretherussos]

Wow...we just got included in the same sentence as GoT!

[@AsiaticBW]

Thank you both for taking me there. I love your way of life.

[@dukesmj]

I have to say, I have been following many folks on KZbin trying to learn and dichpher as much knowledge as I can about traveling and living life on the road (once I retire). You guys are by far my favorite of all the people I have subscribed to. Beautiful views in Tahoe and another terrific video! Joe, Kate and Leo are definelty living the life! Safe travels!

[@MultiRabe]

Mark Dukes I second that Mark! They truly are the BEST in the business! 👌

[@icestationzebra13]

Do you have a blog with your food recipes? Your food looks amazing, healthy, and easy. I'd love to get some of your recipes.

[@Weretherussos]

Kait posts her recipes on patreon.com/weretherussos

[@SparklingGems]

Mmmm...I'm gonna make Thai green curry for dinner tonight too (hopefully it's as good as yours looked, Kait)! I love all the beauty shots you guys take the time to film...I especially loved the sound of the water when Joe and Leo were at the beach...sooo beautiful!!! :-)

[@thomaskatayama3336]

Kait, you've inspired me to start using my Instant Pot again and I'm loving it. Thank you.

[@Weretherussos]

That's awesome and so happy you're enjoying it!

[@jrmint2]

lol... Joe:"this way..." Cait: "oh!" turns around :)

[@Burner-Adventure-Chronicles]

There is just something about the sound of the water when it hits the shore, whether the roar of a wave of the ocean or the gentle lap of a lake. It soothes the soul.

[@TheSeira117]

Reading through the comments. I loved the dance! As posted below- dance like no one is watching! It's a beautiful thing!

[@billg8677]

just a great video once again thanks.....may peace,,health,,and happiness follow all three of you

[@lelabowden2897]

Love this video.....I enjoy being there with you guys......I am a grandma and I can't go and do what your doing so I love going on adventures with you......Leo is such a beautiful dog and well behaved.....and your diet is really healthy and really looks good.

[@gruivis]

Excellent video! Thanks for taking us along.

[@knit1purl1]

Love your channel and videos. I'm a native Californian and have never seen lake Tahoe. Loved the sound of the little waves especially. I enjoy Kait's cooking. I'm a lousy cook and I'm sure mine would never come out as good as yours looks. Sylvia was cool. Looking forward to Oregon.

[@sandymarie921]

Hi there. Thanks so much. Don't change a thing. Besides, I have no ideas.lol. I really like the simplicity of the what and how you cook and really like the bowl idea. I think you are on to something there. A new way to cook and eat. There might be a recipe book in your future. 👍I think you guys are the best we have seen. You make it so real and do a fabulous job detailing what you do. I love your day to day shares. We love you guys. Look forward to more.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Sandy!

[@amandawanda428]

Absolutely gorgeous scenery. Glad you had fun at the campground.

[@janetlevisay1770]

I really loved your video! Beautiful views of Lake Tahoe, adorable doggie, wonderful camper van -- and you two are great, also! And that meal looked delicious!

[@TheSeira117]

That was a fun video. Kait usually does a dance, but this time Joe got to bust a move. Looking good Joe! Kait's dinner looked just delicious. Leo looked so comfortable at the beach. Looking forward to your next video.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Nadine! You should see my dance after a cup of coffee ;)

[@lovemariac3146]

So jealous. I still remember seeing you both driving thru Knoxsville, TN in your big trailer. Been following the 3 of you. What a cool life experience.

[@Lexlex8003]

I love how that lady jumped right in 😂. And she has a pop up! 😀 something we are looking to buy! Can’t wait to experience all these wonderful places!

[@l-bird]

Hi Sylvia... and Leo and Kait and Joe!!! Ha, nice dance there Joe! Green Thai curry... yum! Whoa, that was a narrow beach at 12:00, but I reckon that's all that's needed. There's something so peaceful about water washing onto a shoreline :)

[@Weretherussos]

Yes, the beach there was VERY narrow but nice to sit and relax. Certainly different from beaches along the ocean! Oh...hello back!

[@kevinosullivan7121]

Thanks for another great video. I visited "The Ponderosa" from Bonanza at Lake Tahoe years ago. Shame to hear it's now closed.

[@happygaycampers8554]

Thanks for sharing your journey! Your vids are awesome. We look forward to them every week!

[@Lisa-tj3cd]

Kait, Your dinner looks so delicious and healthy! I see the link below on how to make it, thanks!

[@A-Nobody]

Just a quick hello from a UK subscriber. Your campervan life looks amazing and you really are living a great life. Keep the video content going!

[@andrewbrowning9329]

I have been looking forward to an episode from you guys all week! Keep living the dream!

[@JCRogers3]

I went there last summer and was in a state of shock and awe. I knew I was going to be driving through and ended up staying longer than planned. I wished I had planned that trip with a longer layover because it was absolutely beautiful and temperature in August was perfect for hiking.

[@Weretherussos]

That will happen when going through Tahoe!

[@julieh3327]

You are making us homesick with this video! We used to visit all the time from where we used to live. Our favorite little restaurant is in South Lake Tahoe - Sprouts Cafe!

[@Weretherussos]

Sorry about the homesick part, but so happy you enjoyed it. Sprouts Cafe was on the list to check out but we didn't get to it this trip.

[@larrywilson652]

last year about this time u were coming home from the EAA flyin in the class A followed by a Jeep. What a year it has been. Keep them wheels a rollin.

[@Weretherussos]

That it has!

[@dennism6664]

Nice "Jethro" bowl at 9:22 Looks yummy

[@julesl7679]

You guys are so organized. I love your van.

[@SewFrancine6120]

I really love your warmth. Enjoy be safe smile lots

[@tmaddoxl]

Love watching your adventures and Leo rules almost as much as my Collie, Bliss.

[@RVHabit]

Great video. The end with Silvia was priceless. Stay safe

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks - she's awesome!

[@Bob-uw1zn]

Thanks guys, love the day to day life vid's. Longer then 5 minutes shorter then 20. :)

[@kamujian]

probably my favorite video you've done so far. take care

[@kiwicomposer]

hey "Keep Your Daydream" is heading to Lake Tahoe right now. You should touch base and link up. Love how polite you are with each other.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Steve but we're currently in Oregon. With the time, effort it takes to edit these videos, we're typically a few weeks behind (I think they are too).

[@kiwicomposer]

We're the Russos yes, I always forget the slight delays. They were heading there after watching the eclipse so should be there now.

[@mariahwallener4292]

Looking forward to your Oregon video. We went down there from BC to watch the eclipse. Every time we passed a camper van I thought about you two! Hope you got to see the eclipse too, it was amazing! thanks for another great video. :)

[@Weretherussos]

You're welcome, so happy you enjoyed it!

[@arnoldandjosieespinoza4405]

South Lake Tahoe was beautiful guys. Thx for sharing your experiences with us. Awesome video. Read that you're on Oregon by the time this video was posted. Were you guys able to see the eclipse? Can't wait till your next posting, till then keep on van shuffling. I want Leo's life. 😂🤣 Big fans from Texas Arnold, Josie (Chico/Hershey)

[@edbenson98]

Another great video, the Lake Tahoe area is really beautiful. You give a different perspective to living in a van from most of the ones I've seen on KZbin. It's fun following your journey and I can't wait to see your next adventure! #WTR

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Eddie!

[@hungpham]

Ha ha it was me giving you a hard time about taking off the shoes. Great video as always. Thank you.

[@charliecharlie7898]

Another great video. I love pop up camper Sylvia. What a doll.

[@leewiegand9141]

We've camped at that campground in South Lake Tahoe before. Nice place, but we had a neighbor who came and went all night in their BMW and would use the key fob lock which created a loud beep each time and wake us up. Now we go to our time share at the Ridge at Tahoe each year. Always a great experience. Love Lake Tahoe.

[@CampMore99]

Green peas as the base of the meal. Lovely idea! Less rice, more peas. TY!

[@Weretherussos]

Yes! More peas!!!

[@BagelBunny]

Kate, no worries ! My Dad says I get lost in a phone booth ! Love being able to follow your adventures !!

[@dftns19]

Coming back through and re-watching these videos from years ago. I really like the way you guys did these videos.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks! It's fun for us too to go back and watch the older stuff.

[@NoteFromSELF]

I love it when Leo gets camera time.

[@joycebrower8822]

Great video! Prayers for safe travels to Oregon and beyond! 😍

[@rhondabloom4876]

The places you go and the scenery you show are fantastic.

[@kelvincurtislaw]

Viewing this video bought back wonderful memories of my visit to South Lake Tahoe. Truly beautiful area! Your videos have definitely inspired me to make a decision on how I will be living during my retirement life! If you guys are ever on the east coast, primarily near Charleston, South Carolina, hit me up!

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Kelvin and hopefully you can get out on the road sooner than later.

[@anitakhalkhali]

I think our old neighbors from Corsini live in or near Klamath Falls and run a B&B.

[@rockwestfahl]

Everybody loves Leo!

[@theresasatton2147]

We are at this campground now. I really like it. My husband works at the local hospital, a whole 5 min drive!

[@richardquinones2959]

You guys are having an awesome time and I can't wait to start my journey in the camper van life God bless you both😇🙏

[@MrKalon52]

I have the same thermostat you can cycle to Celsius by clicking/touching the up and down buttons simultaneously. Also if for some reason it (the a/c) doesn't click on. Pull the face of the thermostat off and put it back on and it'll reset it.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks for the tip!

[@dbarrantes911]

Do you guys do a cooking show? I would love to learn more about cooking with the instant pot.

[@Weretherussos]

Kait used to do one but it wasn't very popular so we stopped. Here are the older videos: kzbin.info/aero/PLpqJFyT0tg-KSkv_o9eny9nSbDpdZI_bA

[@toddreimer1158]

Yes, Waupaca S'more Fun. We did just stay a week at Grant River Campground on the Mississippi in SW Wisconsin which was very nice, especially if you like trains.

[@Weretherussos]

You know me, I love my trains. Will have to check it out when we go through there.

[@monnaprovost7294]

Wasn't the lake water cold? I'm from NJ and vacationed in Lake Tahoe during the winter back around 1988. We drove around the whole lake, I think it was about 26 miles. I remember a local saying that the water is too cold to swim in even in the summer. We skied in 5 different resorts around there. My fav area to hang out was Truckee, CA. I always wanted to go back there. Thanks for your videos. I really enjoy watching you, Kait and Leo. Happy, safe travels.

[@lisamaynard7761]

Was that the Mr. Russo Dance🕺? #loveWTR#myweeklymustsee 👍🏾😉. Safe travels looking forward to seeing your next video.

[@Weretherussos]

Yep that was my little pre-coffee dance. You should see me after I've had a cup!

[@kmj761]

I just subscribed to your channel and literally spent most of the day yesterday watching your video's. As a disabled person who can no longer travel around as you are doing, it is wonderful to be able to visit all these places with you. You are an awesome couple and I love Leo, he's so well behaved, does he ever bark? Looking forward to your next video. I live in Oregon and looking forward to seeing where you go while you are here.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Kerry and so happy you can travel with us! Leo is awesome and no, he never barks. We're currently in Oregon and really enjoying it here!

[@samt797]

She gives me such a positive energy

[@chandaharkins4418]

All those loops DO get confusing, Kait! I'm with you on that.

[@dionjohnson4376]

Another great video! Kiva beach looked amazing! If you ever visit England you should camp in St. Ives, its very pretty. Cant believe I have to wait another week for your next video!

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Dion! We'll certainly check out St Ives when we're on your side of the pond.

[@seanryan5311]

Great campground choice, I stayed there 2 years ago with my dads 5th wheel trailer. Also Raley's is a good grocery store.

[@Weretherussos]

We really enjoyed it there.

[@nancysiemonsma9677]

Beautiful Leo !! Love all your Videos Joe, Kait and Leo look for my Jack !!

[@jerib8654]

We just got back from a trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. It was breathtaking. You should add it to your "one day" list. We didn't camp this trip as we flew out from Memphis.

[@Weretherussos]

We've been and were there while the Elk were bugling weretherussos.com/rocky-mountain-national-park-from-estes-park-to-grand-lake/

[@manuelrosquete6818]

You guys are one of my favorite RV couples, really good videos please keep them coming..

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Manuel!

[@miriamayala5757]

thank you that place was spectacular!!

[@darrellmacleod202]

Hey guys. Another great video. Are you going to share some of your Instant pot recipes in here? Even just a 20 second outline of how you cooked it. That green curry dish looked yummy. 😋

[@Weretherussos]

Hey Darrell...we share the recipes over on patreon.com/weretherussos

[@workhardforit]

Watching these two is very therapeutic 😌

[@PetePuebla]

Cool video. Looked like fun. I'm planning on going to Lake Tahoe this week. And about taking your phone, never leave without your phone.

[@TonyPhillips-jy7ev]

Good memories with my favorite fur angel Leo / ugh miss that man

[@michaelkurz9067]

very nice to have a CHEF in the family

[@Weretherussos]

That it is!

[@erehm]

Sweet. I'll be at Campground by the Lake in S. Lake Tahoe in a Hymer Activ from 27-31 Sept. Thanks for the tip to visit Inspiration Point Vista.

[@rabbet63]

Thanks for another great video...keep living the dream(my dream one day 😁)

[@Weretherussos]

You're welcome!

[@CMEly65]

What is the instant pot you use? Where can I find one ? I like the way you eat. Thanks for sharing.

[@Weretherussos]

Here you go! amzn.to/2iqR5Kv

[@tracymccain2893]

Thank you! Got some good info from the video.. 🍀Blessings🍀

[@jstersd]

Another great video and trip report! We're getting ready to "camperize" our cats and take them out for a few weekends to see how they do in the Paseo. Did Leo have any issues being confined?

[@lovemind8466]

I truly love love love this episode I can't wait to go there and visit thank you so much for sharing you guys are so motivating for me you have no idea like I got to get my s*** together like extra fast and hurry up so we can get out there on that road.. Safe travels guys

[@stanw909]

Many years ago we tried to boondock in the forest on the Southwest side of the lake in our Toyota class C motorhome . We just couldn't shake a creepy feeling and ended up leaving late at night and sleeping in a parking lot in town .

[@pamelajones4412]

Beautiful view

[@stanw909]

I hope you go to Lava beds National Monument on way to Klamath Falls . Many lava tubes to explore and great stars .

[@MultiRabe]

I liked it when she put Leo first too (noticed it before you even mentioned it Joe lol ;) I've notice with good TV shows that they're peppered with great individual little scenes: 1) Kait's Green Thai Curry prep 2)The beach scene with "mama" carrying her ducklings on her back 3) The overlook at Vista Point 4) Meeting Sylvia Good videos are subject to our own individual interpretations...and are very relative too! I personally love your new format, and obviously, 41K subscribers love them too! You guys don't look "Sickly" to me! You don't look low in energy either! Nor are you putting out "Lack Luster" material! If you guys put out videos to meet all of your subs individual wants & desires, you hair is gonna start falling out Joe....er...um...you know what I mean buddy! Cheers on another great video by the DYNAMIC TRIO! 🍻👍👌✌🏻🖖🏼

[@Weretherussos]

Well...how do you think I lost the hair in the first place ;) Thanks Robert!!! You know that we are working hard on these things and we're so happy you're enjoying them!

[@MultiRabe]

We're the Russos And you & Kait are doing a fabulous job...standup & take a bow

[@judyhobday5334]

Yum! I am interested in your insta pot, if that is what it is. Thought in a different video it was a slow cooker but this is definitely different from that.

[@thankfulheart4266]

Looking forward to your next video already 🤗💞✨🔝👌🏼😍👍🏼

[@shanslam1970]

Kait your curry looks incredibly delicious i will be trying this.....and what a beautiful place to camp

[@B33333]

Nice camp view Guy.. Really enjoying your video 😉

[@neelammercado]

👍🏼Beautiful views, Leo too adorable & Sylvia 😍

[@ClipCoyote]

I want one of those vans! I've been doing the same out of a Land Cruiser, but laying down in an actual bed seems amazing!

[@kevinclark8268]

Yay it's Wednesday!

[@markreynolds3850]

Enjoyed the tour of Lake Tahoe.

[@hebguy07]

Love your videos, what type of motor van/ home do y'all drive?

[@Weretherussos]

It's a Hymer Aktiv 2.0

[@MovingForwardAdventures]

Videos keep getting better and better! $4.00 a gallon!? and I thought we had it bad when we paid $2.49 last week smh. Its a good thing you were with Kait while leaveing the grocery store she almost went the wrong way Lol. You guys make a good team. Take care and safe travels!!

[@Weretherussos]

Trust me, it happens ALL the time...Kait goes one way when she should go the other :)

[@markreynolds3850]

This is a really nice video tour, thanks so much for this video.

[@leannoxley6901]

Willing to share your curry recipe? It looked delicious!

[@Weretherussos]

Yes, it will be posted to our Patreon page on Friday: patreon.com/weretherussos

[@biker_dudefastlane9339]

You guys are good shoppers.

[@anla9071]

Thank you for your great videos 👍🏻

[@sandymarie921]

Another fave. Loved it

[@GeistView]
