США
Добавлен 1 окт 2014
Follow us on our adventures across this beautiful country. Whether you're family, friends or just interested in getting some ideas to get out there--watch and enjoy!
We named our original mode of exploration "Wild Horses" which was a 35' Cruiser Yacht; then our Sunnybrook 5th Wheel; ...followed by our Keifer horse trailer w/living quarters, and now our Tiffin motorhome. 'Wild Horses' was because of all the horses we've owned and loved, plus the fact wild horses can't drag us away from camping, hiking and adventure!

Magical Christmas Adventure in Our RV - Episode 81
I love Enzo❤❤
We love him too. He tries so hard to be good... even when he's not! 😂
Nice bus 🚌 ma'am beautiful
Thanks!
How do you like those high bridges? I'm 62 and I've never liked driving over them, in a car, let alone a Class A. I'll have to focus on the fact that with our new Safe T Plus, we'll be fine. Installing it tomorrow!
We love our Safe-T Plus upgrades... it really did help with the wind we experienced when we were in Arizona (though the wind gusts were horrible no matter what you drive). We're going back to Safe-T Plus in September to get Koni Shocks put on. Hope you love them as much as we do!
@@wildhorsesrvadventures I can't wait. I've installed a rear trac bar, 4 koni shocks, sumo springs on the front.... I'm hoping we get more than a slight improvement, over all the other add ons.
I misspoke... we have Koni shocks (duh), we're getting Sumo Springs put on because we have to go up and down a dirt road to get to our home base & it's brutal. Hoping this will help more!
Heads up everything was expensive LOL
Yep... thou there were show discounts on most everything.
Crab wontons was a epic failure LOL
@@AA5MC I thought they were delicious!
The show and the museum was well worth the money !
@@AA5MC oh yes!
This was a great time for sure! By the way this overnight spot was on point and reconmeded to anyone heading west on I-10
Definitely a great overnight stay.
They tasted just like a big mac LOL
Maybe even better... we used grass fed, grass finished beef. God only knows what is actually in those 'real' Big Macs! LOL🤣😂😋
Love the apple cider donuts 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Those donuts are the best! I miss them... and Linda. ❤
One of our best trips I love Moody Gardens
Definitely want to go back there again!
lol i dont know why but weddings are soooooo boring people watching people ya dont even like really. when i was a kid the high light of weddings back in the late 70s was makin out with the brides maids man!! that was it lol and watching mom and dad drunk making a fool of themselves i mean that was the high light of the evening. its just so boring now. but people are so fake an phony in this new world 2023 i hate weddings ! but none the less i hope they and u guys had fun.
Very nice video thank you for sharing. This is one of my favorite state parks. I just stubbed your Channel
Glad you liked our video. We loved that park too! We will go back when it's cooler out and hike Old Baldy. 😊
@@wildhorsesrvadventures yes I'd like getting in the state parks when it's cooler but I may make it visit the Garner State Park some kayaking
How Come You GUYS HAVE SO MANY VIEWS ?
The little boots on the dog was so cute . beautiful place, my son would have played in that lazy river pool all day. Great videos love the kitty's cats too.
So glad you liked it! Everyone loves Enzo's boots... plus they keep the stickers out of his feet. :)
Thanks.... You did well with the idiots in the rain. We were there 3 weeks later. We were on the rebuilt beach side and it was good except for the ants. The bay side is more intimate, although closer to your neighbor, in our opinion. Your dog is so calm. If he met our two, he would tell them to "chill dudes" 😂.
Our dog is NOT calm... he's usually a nervous wreck. LOL. He's a rescue that has been through a lot. You're right about the way they revamped the bayside, the sites used to not be so close together as they are now. We were lucky, our neighbors to the right were super nice and the other neighbor we never saw!
Thanks... we put a stop to the arrivals in the dark pretty quickly. We use RV Trip Wizard and target 150 to 225 miles with an absolute max of 300 (with an extremely early start). We are based in Dallas and never depart or arrive in traffic rush hours. Y"all did well with the adversity. Take care...
We also use RV Trip Wizard and I revamped our entire style of driving after that trip--doing the same thing you are. We're using Harvest Hosts so our travel days are shorter and we aren't totally stressed out by the time we get somewhere! If you check out our more recent videos---we've gotten better!
Truly love your channel. Keep doing the best work !!!
So happy you liked it!
Looks nice!
It is nice! You should go there sometime!
That is always awesome when you can travel to see family and friends. We are originally from Virginia, but we call Southern Florida home these days. Whenever we go home we always have to hit our favorite restaurants too. How is I-81 for motorhomes? Is it a good or bad drive? We have debated taking it north to clear the DC area. I would really prefer never to sit in that traffic in the RV.
We prefer Rt 81 to Rt 95... it takes you far enough away from DC that you don't get stuck in the mess we got into coming back from the wedding in NJ. We find Rt 81 a pleasant drive. That's the way we will take if going to NJ and New England when we go again in the future.
@@wildhorsesrvadventures Thank you very much.
Great video guys. Do you ever have plans to tow a vehicle and ride together in the motorhome?
Yes we have! We bought a 2015 Chevy Colorado and put a Towmaster package on ourselves. Our first time towing it was our Anniversary Trip to Galveston Island... it just came out on RUclips on Saturday. 😊
@@wildhorsesrvadventures That's great news 🙂 We flat tow a Lincoln MKX. We went to Waco then Galveston when we left town for hurricane Ian last fall.
Good video!
Thanks!
Very nicely done!
Thank you very much!
Nice video!
Thank you!
Wow this was just what we were looking for. Awesome job. I’ll watch some other adventures you have uploaded. You did a great job 🎉
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
😮. Wow!! I gotta try that Reeses. That’s like,a whole bottle of peanut butter with a little chocolate poured over it. Lol Awesome video!! Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Thanks for watching our trip! The Reese had a ton of chocolate on it---it was delicious!
First time watcher and I just subscribed. What a nice video. 🙂 I was shocked you didn't go into Buc-ee's. I love their cheap diesel when we have to fill up our RV. So in the next video do we get your honest opinion on your new upgrades?
I didn't go into Buc-ee's because we had all the pets with us and it was quite warm outside. My husband went and got our BBQ sandwiches. :) I hated driving the motorhome originally because it was like driving a bucking bronco. Now I do drive---drove 4.5 hours to South Padre Island for one instance. I don't have to keep adjusting the steering wheel to keep it straight. Going over bridges with expansion joints is so much nicer now too. No endless bucking!
@@wildhorsesrvadventures That's really great! I am so happy for you guys. It's always nice to have an honest review and opinion. We have a diesel pusher. Kitty travels with us too. I always run the generator to keep the air conditioners and the refrigerator running, but even with that my wife has never been into Buc-ee's. She always stays in the coach with kitty.
Very interesting to see the Safe T Plus install at the factory. We want to add one to our Tiffin 36LA!
We love it. My husband and I did a review of the Safe-T Plus items at the end of our Part 3 trip. Definitely worth it!
hhi.what a fantastic .😍
Thank you so much 😀
I was there Oct 16 - 21 and froze my tail off, so to speak. Been going there since the 50's. Beautiful country. We initiated a man who's never gone camping in his life. And felt Garner was the perfect place to be. Thanks for the vid and subscribed. Jb
Glad you enjoyed it. We had such a good time that we are planning a trip back there when it's cooler! It's a gorgeous park.
Beautiful park and economical for the families!
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
Love the background Cuban music. And the video
One of my favorites! Thanks for sharing
How long did it take you guys to do the hike? Looks beautiful!
it took us about 3 hours in total... of course we stopped to have lunch and enjoy the views. Still one of our favorite state parks!
