Thanks Sally!

Great info!

Great info, thanks

Thanks for the info.

What a lovely place you found to walk! Seems Kit liked it too!

Love your adventurous spirit!

👍

Thanks for the info!

Great comparison - thanks for sharing with us!

Looks good.

I love how our pups look at us and soak in our conversations with them! ❤ Adorable pup!!

He is So Adorable❤❤❤

Looks great! Yumm!

Aww, love that 🐕

Beautiful places!

Great video!

Went to the Saint-Gaudens site this past summer. The views across the river were wonderful,

I don't remember what rain looks like.

I'm curious. Is Bennington Battlefield not a National something?

Hi sally. I love the content.

Love the new intro! I have two propane tanks on my travel trailer, so when one runs out, I turn it off, turn the other one on, check to make certain it's working and then I take the empty one to be refilled. This assumes I'm stationary, of course. If I'm on the road, I usually stop at a Love's or other place that has propane. I refill my gasoline on my truck at a half tank when I'm on the road and a quarter tank when I'm stationary. As you know, "stationary" does not necessarily mean plugged in. I've been boondocking since the 3rd week of October. We're getting a lot of wind right now and it's pretty chilly, yet still warmer than you are.

Great tips!Where did you get the windshield cover? Love the new intro!!

Good tips. I fill my gas tank and propane when it's half full. I like the new intro.

Nice drive 😊

Great information, thank you!

Cool, it looks like you've got a great set-up and are prepared to brave the cold. This will be the coldest winter we've spent in our motorhome off-grid here in NC, as its forecast to get down to 15 degrees where we are Wednesday. We're living off sun power and propane without hook-ups. We must run our furnace, burning propane when the temp dips below freezing as this is how our coach keeps our tanks, pipes and lifepo-4s from freezing, by diverting warm air to our underbelly. Our furnace blower draws 8 amps, but as long as we have sun, our 5,020 watts of solar and big battery bank keeps everything powered. After 3 days of no sun, we must start rationing power to keep everything running. We run our propane water heater to keep it save too. We'll probably burn through about $10-$12 a day in propane, but it's still cheaper than spending $500 more for an RV site with electric. A no hook-up site here is only $100/mo., while FHU sites run $600/mo.. Plus we'd still need to buy propane anyway to keep our underbelly warm. Our 35ft, 1999 coach is pretty well insulated with dual pace windows, etc. We use Reflectix, like you do, to help hold in the heat, especially covering that big windshield up front. One thing to remember is to add some alcohol or other antifreeze to your windshield washer tank to stop it from cracking in the freeze too. One final tip is we put a mechanics drop light with a 40w bulb in the basement compartment with our sewer valves, to keep them from freezing. To save power we bought a, Easyheat thermostat at Lowes that turns on when the temp drops to 38 degrees and off at 50 degrees. We plugged the drop light into it and placed it near the dump valves, running an extension cord to it for power.

Good tips! I can't believe they didn't at least have one spigot free for you to use to fill your tanks. Here in Oregon they always do that-even if you have to use the camp host's spigot, they would expect you'd need to fill tanks when you're paying for it and weather is bad. It's 25 degrees during the day here for me lately-brrr! But I am in my house....wishing I was out camping though!

I own my house outright and the insurance, taxes and maintenance is about the same as yours. Which will be far too high for me when I want to quit working and just live off my SS. I have cut all other expenses to the bone and even so would not be able to afford it. So selling it is the only option. What to do after that? RV is an option. Renting a home. Buying a cheaper home. So many options. Not sure which one is right. But I may get an RV and try it for awhile and see if that life is for me. I have always wanted to travel up and down the West Coast. When I lived in Phoenix for over a year I didn't do any travel because I was working 40 to 50 hours a week.

Thanks Sally for opening your expenses up so everyone can learn from your experience. I want to mention the free Libby App for free audio books. I have access to my local library and LA County libraries inventory. Sometimes you may have to que up for a new release but eventually you will get the book. I have used it for years and love it. I am confident you can reach your goal of 5k subscribers. 😀

Lol Kit 😂

My old stomping grounds! Welcome to N.E.!

Thanks Sally. Good info here. I’d also be interested in more detail on the T-mobile internet. Safe travels to you & Kit

Thank you for detailing all of this. It was interesting seeing your expenses compared to ours for the year. Of course, we're two people but we've been keeping close tracks on what we spend also. Maybe we'll bump into each other again and compare notes about budgets, youtube, and life in general.

I forget. Did you mention you also own your RV outright? I think that you did really great, keeping the things that are important to you (it doesn't really matter *why* they're important), and ditching the things that aren't. You have also given me some things to think about and I imagine anyone else who watches this will feel the same way. Great video!

Great information! Can you discuss more on your TMOBILE internet on the road.

It's cheaper for me to full-time for sure.

This is/was my first year in the LTVA at Quartzsite. Also my first year being homeless in a class A motorhome from the mid 90’s. It cannot get into MANY Rv parks because of its age. I live on SSD under $1000 a month. For me it is a blessing that I could make it to Quartzsite and pay for the entrance fee. With an increase to $600 for the season. I will be unable to pay my bills or even get gas for that whole month. My bills are over $375 per month and that doesn’t include gas to get to the store or pharmacy to get my meds. I could understand if it made it to $250 to $300 for the season (September-April) but not $600. Quartzsite will lose out on money spent in their city. Also the large gathering that happens in January will suffer too. The large tent will not get as many people/visitors/customers and the vendors around the area will suffer losses as well. Many will stop coming when they notice that sales are way down. Those vendors still buy things from the city and stores here in Quartzsite. If they increase the LTVA price to $600 they are effectively killing Quartzsite, Arizona.

Well done. Been there lots of times. They have redone a lot of the exibits in prep for the festivities next year. There is a great Doc called, "Benedict Arnold, Hero Betrayed". Very well, and fairly done. Puts a spin on the man that people really need to consider.

This was *actually* (j/k) wonderful. Very interesting historical facts in an absolutely beautiful environment. Thanks for sharing!

Thank You so much for your video! I just replaced the printed circuit board on my max air fan. I followed your directions. The only problem I had was getting the wire connectors apart. The plastic white things you have to pull apart with the sheer force of Hercules. You know the things!! Other than that I had no problems and my fan is working again without the Green Light of Death. Thank you. Oh thanks for the fuse hint!

First they charged too little and now they want to charge too much.

There was a tornado in Rome on July 16th. Fortunately, no one was killed, but there was a great deal of damage as you saw. Enjoying your ride-along videos.

I can understand how you explain information better than some other people. Thank you!

Great information - thanks!

Locks are so fascinating ¡

Hi Sally. I just watched this video and then watched Irene Iron Travels' video. That exact same thing happened to a 5th wheel that was passing me leaving Albuquerque NM November '24. I flagged the driver down and motioned for him to pull over. His tire-less wheel was scraping the pavement as he passed me. Same placement as Irene Iron Travels' wheel/tire, too. I think I'm going to get me a temp measuring device for my pull behind trailer.

I like how thorough you are on your topics.

Always interesting to watch. We have a campground just north of Nashville on the Tennessee river that is controlled by locks so when you’re camping, you get to watch all the big commercial boats and barges come in and out that go down the river. ❤

Locks are so fascinating. I haven't seen the Erie Canal, but I have had the privilege of crossing the Panama Canal twice - once in the old locks and once in the new locks. I could spend all day watching. Thank you for sharing the Erie Canal locks! That's neat you are able to get up close to them.
