Haha love the outtakes! Just to make life easier on your backs, I've seen people hooking up there grey water tank onto the hitch ball and slow drive to the dump station if it's nearby. Saves you the trouble of lifting the tank onto your tailgate. Looks like a nice location. Thanks for sharing and safe travels.

Ah yes, we see this all the time, but I've read warnings about the wheels coming off if the road is rough, so we bought one small enough that we can lift it.

So much rain... it looked nice when sunny, but still looked somewhat cool. I hope you get some warm weather soon. Stay safe.

Always enjoy your channel and the way you share your experiences. You once advised how to watch a rocket launch on California, given you're so close to Starbase you're going to make a tour there too? Greetings from Italy

Hi! Thanks for watching our channel. We made a video visiting starbase and released it a few videos before this one. But, we're going back again later in the series, too.

in 1998 I lived in my school bus at the National Seashore and worked for the Park Service restoring one of the park buildings. after work was complete, I moved down past the 4x4 mark on the beach. looks like a lot of things have changed since I was there

Neat! Yeah, like everything else in life, things change with time.

Thanks for the video, as a fellow Canadian, and going full time next year been following you guys for a while. Jay do you maybe have a video of the folding mechanism of your solar panels, and how you mounted it? Thanks!

Hi! Congratulations on your upcoming full-time adventures! Yes, we have a video about installing our tilting solar panels in one of our earlier seasons.

This the north Island beach near Corpus Christi?, I should be able park the Class C there in the $14 / day

@HomeARoam 9 ай бұрын

Yes, that's the one. And yes, $14/day but note there's a 14-day limit.

You definitely need to watch the forecast and go when it's not windy. As I understand it a section is the National park and the other section is managed by the city. You get 2 free nights in the City section...

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

Less wind would definitely be optimal.

Wow! Not much joy on the weather front. Hope it improves for you!

Thanks! Sneak preview: Yes, we did get start getting better weather after that. 🌞

17:33 LOL, umm, if you say so. Next visit camp ON the beach.

@HomeARoam 4 ай бұрын

Yeah we wanted to, but the weather just wasn't conducive to it this time. Blowing sand isn't pleasant.

Just an FYI u don't need to unload the tote from truck, just get and ext hose and let er rip better yet get a macerator pump and leave tote in truck 247

@HomeARoam 9 ай бұрын

Hmm, I feel like the tote would still have to be lower than the grey tank somehow. But yes, with a macerator pump we wouldn't have to rely on gravity then. 😀

You could have just taken the short cut across the jetty, IF you had a LCAC Landing Craft Air Cushion like the Marines. 🤷🏻‍♂️😁

is the daily park entrance fee waived or included in the camping fee?? otherwise i assume it is another $5 per day on top of the $14???

@HomeARoam 9 ай бұрын

The daily rate is not included and would be charged on top of that. We bought an America the Beautiful pass this season which gets you free entry into national parks, monuments, and Forrest's. It was well worth it because it's saved us a bundle on entrance fees.

Cool, didn't realize it was a national park, at least u guys will be warming up now, Vancouver still wet & cold for now🌦@@HomeARoam
