The Florida springs are the life source for the whole State. Without the springs, FL would just be a big, dry limestone rock bordered by sand. They're beautiful and need to be protected.
Agreed! 💯
This is entirely not true. Our springs are a result of random aquafers and are not representative of FL's aquafers as a whole.
They tie into the Florida aquifer but have different spring sheds.
Yup welcome to my world (part time RV) and we can’t bring it to our house-bummer. Glad you’re talking about the health of the springs. I was born in FL and love them.
Liz, you and Dennis need to do annual and semi annual service to your roof top A/C conditioners! The mold will kill you if you leave it in your systems!
We do service them regularly but the bolt broke last time so we weren't able to properly service it. That mold was just from one summer and this was before Dennis cleaned it off after we found it.
Mexican train Domino’s! We love that game! If we ever run into each other out on the road camping we will have to play it together!!! Alli is a terrible looser though lol😂 love the looks of some of those springs we’ve yet to try.
Started using Upside a few months ago and LOVE it. Some fast food places we frequent do 18-20% back all the time which is a big bonus! Love the video. The springs look awesome!
For real!! So glad you love it as much as we do
Love your video, I live in Pinellas Park, FL. and graduated from Boca Ciega HS and I own a 2023 Ram Promaster HR van that I converted to a camper I also belong to Florida van gatherings Facebook group and we are thinking of having a van gathering at Gulfport beach. Spent my summers at Juniper Springs as a kid
So fun! 😊 Fellow St. Peter
How fun! Looks so refreshing and with the rain it’s perfect! 💦Thanks for all the infos.
Anne & Eric
Yes! It was a great trip
Great video. It was refreshing to see this kind of video again that first got me watching youtube. RUclips has definitely been lacking this type of video for awhile now. Thank You
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Looks like an amazing trip. Sorry I missed it. The springs are just magical places. It is so important to protect them. 💖🙏✌️
Hopefully next time 😄
Just signed up for Upside with your code. Thanks for the great recommendation! Will be using this on an upcoming road trip.
Awesome. Enjoy the savings 😁
Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video like always 👋🤗
Thank you for watching! 😊
Doubles of household things worked so well for us when we lived on our boat & had our trailer. Made life easy. The springs are stunning - WOW! We never really made it to any (dog & campsites were full). Awesome video & your niece 🤣 That paddle was amazing!
For sure. We just gotta do it. You definitely should make it there in the RV one day it's incredible.
You either need doubles of things to keep in the RV or install a conveyor belt from the house to the RV.
Haha! Doubles sounds easier!
@@EatSeeRV Yes, "doubles" helps. It also makes getting away on short notice a whole lot easier. You guys know how to be frugal. There are ways to get doubles and not break the bank.
Thanks for this great video. We are familiar with Ocala, but learned about 2 spots. Will be going this coming winter/spring. Thanks again !
There's so many gorgeous springs there. We tagged 2 more we want to visit next time.
Come to Michigan for the summer!!! 😁 It's wonderful here! The Salt Spring is beautiful. Crabs and swimming? 😯The Alexander spring was really nice too. Loved the lazy river. Thank you for showing us the beauty of these locations. Good to see you out again. -Michelle
Thanks! We did Michigan for summer in 2022 it was incredible!
The springs are awesome. We spend a couple of months in the Ocala area in the winter. We also learned how to play mexican train there. I saw your travel map. Are you headed to Nova Scotia? We live on Cape Breton Island. You really should come this far and do the famous Cabot Trail. Maybe we will see you on the road. We have a seasonal site in Baddeck. Reach out if you need any help with places to see. 👌🇨🇦
Getting rained on while paddle boarding is the double the fun!
Agreed!
Yeap, you get wet from the top (rain) and the bottom (springs). Plus, you are already geared up to get wet.
Hi Folks , longtime subscriber here. Great video as always , but I'm a little disappointed that RUclips didn't offer closed-captioned for us folks with audio disabilities.😢
You have to turn closed captions on as a setting! It's not something we control on our end. We appreciate you tuning in. Thank you! 😊
Get some old stick candles, they work great for starting fires, wax burns a long time.
Interesting
Florida is too beautiful for its own good...good video today guys . Great job
Ain't that the truth! Thanks Dean, glad you enjoyed it!
Auntie Liz and Uncle Dennis, you have a mini roadtrip with your little kin!!!
It was a great time.
Wow! Alexander Springs is less than an hour from us 😍 We’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation. ❤
Definitely try to camp there, if not the lines to get in are just insane. I hope you can make it though, it's stunning!
We camped at Alexander Springs a couple of Januaries ago. Paddled from the spring to the bridge and saw quite a few alligators.
Awesome! 🐊
Great vid Liz ! Cant believe I have not been to Kelly Park Rock Springs living here 35+ years! , looks fantastic. Hope you guys are doing great, have a safe road trip heading north! Pedro..
Hey Pedro! You gotta go. It's tricky to get in but boy, its worth it
@@EatSeeRV Will definitely plan it ! Saludos Liz and Dennis!
Great video, my fellow Tampa Bay residents!
Glad you enjoyed it! ❤️
I want to visit them all! So motivated to enjoy all that natural beauty : )
So glad we got to explore some of it with you.
I missed this I didn’t know you went PT! I’m shopping for a 19-23 foot class C right now.
Went to PT? Good luck in your search!
@@EatSeeRVI'm assuming PT means part-time.
Been missing Liz and Dennis!
Glad we had a new video for you!
Love love love Silver Springs but would never consider swimming no matter how clear and beautiful it is. The manatees are so cool to watch but too many gators that don't seem to be afraid of people, felt weird enough paddling by them in a kayak. Are there any springs you guys consider too dangerous to swim in? Do you take any precautions???
Pretty, for sure, but I'll stick to the wayyyyy less crowded and free Boondocking out West (including floating the Payette, Buffalo, and Snake rivers). Oh yeah........the UpSide app is a joke out here. I think the best I ever saw what 5cents per gallon. I travel for work and put 1000mi a week on my truck. The gas station discounts are better for me. My 36ft travel trailer is fully stocked with pots/pans and real dishes. I also tossed in a counter-top dishwasher, vacuum, and tools so that I'm not having to take stuff from my house all the time.
Nice! We used it out west and got good deals. We still love it but do what works for you!
When are you going to show all the renovations you did to your fixer upper?
When they're done 😂
@@EatSeeRV As a home owner, they are never done.
I know right 😂. I hope I didn't come off as rude or matter-of-factly.
No! Haha all good. Weird its still processing
I understand how closed-captioned operates . It's not offered on this video
So weird I just checked into this because of your comment and it says "Processing...
Still processing. closed captions Ineligible"
Florida? No thanks.
Your loss.
