For the boondocking site...you said you reserved a site, but then when you arrived you didn't have a site and you just take any available site? So the reservation simply ensures a site, but not which site?
@wildrvlife
@wildrvlife 10 ай бұрын
Yes, exactly! You’re really just reserving a “permit” but the individual sites are first, come, first serve. They just limit how many permits they issue at a time so there aren’t too many people there. I also forgot to ever get into the specifics of reserving the site lol 😅 but we have a detailed tutorial here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHKkoJeJj7OKrdE

Hey guys. My husband and I hope to go full time soon. I do need you to listen. I can jot stress this enough. If you want to lose a few pounds, stop drinking soda. Diet's increase your chances of having a heart attack by 43% versus drinking regular pop. Also the human body recognizes real sugar, not the fake sugars in diet pops. When using man made sweeteners the thyroid is in total confusion. I hope this helps!!! We can not wait to meet you out there somewhere!!!

Camp Margaritaville is nice, but over $100 a nite, noooooo thanx!!! I’d rather spend $180 for 6 months boondocking in SW Arizona at the LTVA’s bouncing around between the “Q” and Imperial Dam. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets and much more freedom and autonomy, and not being beholding to the outrageous RV resort price gouging. Just my 2 cent contribution guys. 👍😃🍻

I've been boondocking for 16 months around Utah. I really prefer the quiet open areas vs campsites. It's not cheap by any means, even when boondocking, but the peace of mind & freedom is worth it! I cook all my meals from scratch which is more expensive but much healthier. Every few months I'll stay at a hotel for a day or two, that serves breakfast. I love the break of not doing dishes & using someone else's towels to wash. I'm looking to join a travel group & start going across the U.S. this year. I'm hoping to do this as long as possible, I can't imagine living in a sticks & bricks anytime soon! I've been a homeowner for decades and I don't miss mowing the lawn!!!!!

We still haven't gotten to explore Utah much, but hope to one day! It looks like there is a lot of really good boondocking out there. That’s a good idea with the hotel stay break, it definitely helps to have a couple days where you can relax from the regular routine

During a 5400 mile June trip on a budget last year through southeast to northeast to northwest and back I stayed at all but luxury camping. State & federal were modestly priced and had 30A, water & sewer. One Good Sam was tight, a bit corny and moderately priced. A county campground was minimal but comfortable. I-80 rest areas had dedicated $10 hookups with water, 30&50A. Mooch-docking was comfortable with 1 marine battery only (didn't need AC or heat). Campground in Virginia was very large, reasonably priced and beautifully wooded but I used it only to park my trailer while staying with kin for 3 nights. ,The most expensive and spartan was a Milwaukee fairground, again for a 3 night visit with kin. Although I made some reservations I really didn't need them except for the federal site. The only one that had nothing available was one that scheduled an "free", onsite concert night with local talent. Total camping cost for 28 days on the road: $590. Average: $29 but for two $50/night locations needed for close driving to visit kin. Efficiency was the rule for this trip. Since I was mostly on the road, I made use of every public restroom rather than depositing solids on board. Paper cups and plates (recommend Chinet) and left only utensils, one pan and pot to wash & dry. Mooch-docking negated the need for laundromat stops. Healthy dining was the rule with only two, guilty roadside stops for Italian and Oriental. The 2-way fridge/freezer was a blessing with leftover propane in the dual 30s.

This is a great experience of all the different types of camping! Interesting that the fairground ended up being the most expensive, we’ve stayed at a couple, but they are usually pretty cheap…they can be a good “hack” for staying in popular places for less. You had an overall great average though! We usually never make reservations very far in advance (usually 1-2 days before we arrive) and can always find SOMETHING. We love taking advantage of family members’ washers and dryers too 😆

I’ve traveled with 4 types of grills over the years. Your Weber is the easiest one to travel with in my experience. The three others were: Traeger tailgater, 2 burner Blackstone, and a 2 burner Weber (twice the size). They each have a purpose and you have to compromise with each style.

We barely go out to eat, except as an occasional treat. It takes a lot but have learned to keep our healthy meals simple. It is challenging at times and extra clean up but worth it to have the energy healthy eating brings. We own a lot in a luxury RV Resort in Ft Myers Beach. Our preference is to camp in the wild -more rustic like State Parks, Harvest Hosts & COE campgrounds. So....we rent our lot out and get as close to real nature as we can. BTW.....we love your channel & followed you originally because you have a Brinkley like ours. Now, I feel like you are friends we have never met. Happy traveling!

I was looking, and that particular Margaritaville is actually over $200 per night for your site - crazy!!! A back-in without the tiki hut is $160 per night. Our rule is to boondocks for two days in a row, followed by a campground with hookups. The main reason is that we don’t carry water due to its weight, and also we don’t have an inverter so can’t run air conditioning which means we also don’t boondocks if it’s hot.

We’ll, we just booked Margaritaville for two nights next week. Can’t wait! Hopefully we’ll have an opportunity to catch up with you somewhere else along our travels :-)

We don't like glamping, so really liked that boondocking site. I would actually call that dry docking, since it has pit toilets and a trash dumpster. Great spot though! BTW, Craig and I have something in common...I'm a Realtor and have attended many home inspections!

We love boondocking when we can. We live in Indiana so we have only boondocked on our trips out west. The only diet that has worked for me is a low carb diet. I tried portion controlled diets a couple of times and always felt hungry. Ended up gaining the weight back with them. I have been able to keep the weight off for 4 years watching my carbs.

We like a mix of both options during our travels, but definitely prefer being in nature. 🌲 Good luck on your healthy eating journey! I don’t know if I’ll be much help with recipes because my go to is grilled chicken and salad, which it looks like you’ve already tried a few different ways. 😜 I also love a burger salad where you basically chop up all your burger toppings with a burger patty on top. Sesame seeds sprinkled on top to complete it. 🍔 😁

Love watching you two! We stay at Thousand Trails in Pacific City Oregon, 10 minutes from the ocean. We leave our 5th at the park for a year at a time. We only come on weekends as my wife still works.

We just missed you. We were there during the RV show. There were quite a few Brinkleys there. I thought on of them was you. I’m not going to lie, I stalked them all a little bit looking for you guys. 🤣🤣

If you like cottage cheese, this recipe is good as part of your breakfast or as a dessert: First take 1 1/2 cups of frozen mixed berries and toss in 1 tsp of brown sugar. On a sheet pan, roast the fruit in the oven for about 12 min at 450 F until they get darker in colour and create a syrup. In the meantime, in a blender/food processor combine 1 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with a Tbsp each of maple syrup and vanilla bean paste and mix until smooth. In your bowl, place the cottage cheese mixture, make a well and add the berries and then drizzle the berry juice, from the pan, over top. It is sooo good.

@@wildrvlife hey, hope I didn’t shame you guys a few months ago about all the burgers you guys seem to be always eating and now you’re doing the chicken thing. Just jealous about the burgers! Don’t get them very often but when I do! Fired up my Weber for the game tonight doing a rack of baby back ribs. Perfect night to do them, it’s still light outside and a balmy 36 degrees here in Wisconsin! Just 4 degrees away from shorts weather. Keep up the great videos and healthy eating guys! Really enjoy your channel.

Congratulations on 1 year. I always enjoy your videos. We travel by moving once a month. It is cheaper paying monthly. It would be so fun to stay at a fancy one and would love to try boondocking. We are not set up to do so right now. I was eating low carb/keto but am now starting carnivore.
