So glad you enjoyed Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Truly awe inspiring places. Can't wait to here about the funky motel. Sorry you had to go through that! Don't understand what happened to your reservation. How can you make a reservation, but "not hold" it? Say what?
We loved Sequoia and Kings Canyon for exactly the reasons you said - it was so peaceful and no crowds! The exact opposite of what we experienced in Yosemite.
We camp there every year. My kids swim in the river every year. The dangerous part is on the way from campgrounds to Boyden Cave. Several people have died, they never found them, because they went rafting in the river near the cave. Very irresponsible choice. Everybody jumps from the big rock into the river at Roads End too. Very fun! I think you missed Roads End!! 😪 Maybe next time! 👍👍They used to have school in the fallen tree!
Welcome to our home state CA! LOL 🏞️ You have visited our most beautiful part of the state! Praying you had a great time on your visit. At least we warn you before you enter! Lol Blessings! 🙏 #LEEsureLEE Trippin' 😎
Todd, hide the map from Shiela for Yosimite because i see a massive hike in your future. Its called Half Doom. It is a good full day hike. Difficulty is rated a 10+. But it completely over looks the Yosimite valley. Make sure you have plenty of water. Safe travels and roads Brian and Cindy. "Xtreambydesign with passion "
@@SwitchItUpLife Has 3 beautiful falls on the hike. Vernal falls, Nevada Falls and Yosemite falls. How ever it includes Half Doom is the last part you go from 1000 feet at the base of the Valley to over 8,000 feet at the top. Did it in my 20's and it wooped my butt. I wouldn't even attempt it today. With a minimum of two months prep. Good luck.
Taking serious notes we r planning a big trip next Spring or fall in the Sierras for our 40th anniversary! But I’m still trying to get to the huddle in April in TN! Ty for all the great video & facts!
You’re killing me Todd. Killing me! I was all set to just visit Sequoia NP next month when we start heading thru Cali, but now I’ve got to find an extra day to stop and at Kings Canyon too!!
It's officially in the bucket....stunning Sheila , I was going to offer to take you for a ride on our 2 up Quad....but I'm 2nd thinking that...😂😂 Hey...thanks for sharing....oh....I love snickers ‼️🙂
HAHAHA That first "Good morning, Todd" had me rolling laughing. The way she delivered that set the tone for what was to come haha. You guys are hilarious
Kookaburra Lyrics Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree Merry, merry king of the bush is he Laugh kookaburra, laugh Kookaburra, gay your life must be :D Beautiful hike! I mean walk
The look that Shelia gave Todd getting in the truck the morning after hotel stay, I was laughing before Sheila answered. Too Funny! Hahahaha I cannot wait to hear about this! Thank you for sharing this beautiful place!
@@SwitchItUpLife Looking forward to being with you at the 'huddle' in Washington. Watched your game show type video tonight. If you choose to do that at the huddle count us in! By the way, we mentioned you in one of our videos a couple back. I'm hoping you'll be able to subscribe.

LMAO Ruben was like she is reading the sign to see how serious it REALLY is 🙌🏽and then you said it... we both laughed out loud. Thennn when you had that smile (cause I know that smile soooo well 😅) I knew you wanted to get into that water 🤣🤣🙌🏽 Can’t wait to go up that way, absolutely amazing! Lazy Daze is from a city next to us, Pomona.
So I take it that motel isn’t something u be interested in staying again? lol. Sounds like maybe a lyfe untethered truck tent idea would have been delightful in compared, lol. 🍻
Oh I don't think the nights sleep was very good. Maybe not a comfortable bed, perhaps a bit noisy, thin walls, hope no bugs 🤣🤣🤣 can't wait to hear about it
If anyone knows what Sheila said when they walked by the retro class C van, please let me know. I replayed it like 5 times and I couldn’t understand it. I feel like I missed a good joke. Thanks in advance. 😀

loved this. Maybe you should include the motel story in the newsletter for those of us who can’t make the huddles…yet
Great idea!

Great video.
Todd’s facts about the seeds is right on. The bird was real!
I looked it up and they are the ancestors of the Cuckoo bird.
We have now added this to our bucket list. You need to you tube the video for kookaburra song. I learned this as a child. You will love it.
So glad you enjoyed Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Truly awe inspiring places. Can't wait to here about the funky motel. Sorry you had to go through that! Don't understand what happened to your reservation. How can you make a reservation, but "not hold" it? Say what?

The waterfalls were just beautiful. Thank you for taking us along.
Great video, the water falls look beautiful. Thought we might get a skinny dipping Todd again. Switch it Up!!
We work so much, your videos are my vacations.
Love that you are coming along on our trips :-)
I would have to take dramamine or I would loose my lunch. Beautiful drive through.

I love Todd's fun facts
Fun video and beautiful hikes. We are looking forward to visiting both someday when we make it out to CA. Thanks for sharing.

You guys are so funny together 🤣❤️
Thanks guys! You two are the best. Thanks for the tour.
That motel looked like half of the cabins just north of Duluth MN.
Call me crazy but I loved them, but they weren't $100/night.
Great tour guys
Thanks Michael!
Amazing
Thanks
Here are the lyrics
Kookaburra sits on the old gum tree,

That's no monkey, that's me.
I guess Magda's and my trip to the Bahama's turned out better then your night in the hotel. Can't wait for the "rest of the story"
LMAO Ruben was like she is reading the sign to see how serious it REALLY is 🙌🏽and then you said it... we both laughed out loud.
Thennn when you had that smile (cause I know that smile soooo well 😅) I knew you wanted to get into that water 🤣🤣🙌🏽
Can’t wait to go up that way, absolutely amazing! Lazy Daze is from a city next to us, Pomona.
Thank you for watching!
My father would say, 'to see the top of the tree you have to look up twice.'
LOVE LOVE LOVE those trees!!! Oh and the waterfalls 😍😊
So amazing
So I take it that motel isn’t something u be interested in staying again? lol.
Sounds like maybe a lyfe untethered truck tent idea would have been delightful in compared, lol. 🍻
My thoughts exactly!
Love your videos! You two are fun!!
Thank you
Cookoobird must have been a Kansas bird..!
Amazing again ✔️❤️
All entrances to Yellowstone National Park have been closed due to the flooding.
We’ve all had “those” motel stories 😂😂
Sorry Sheila, Todd pronounced the name of the bird correctly. I can't say about the rest of the story though.🤣🤣
Oh I don't think the nights sleep was very good. Maybe not a comfortable bed, perhaps a bit noisy, thin walls, hope no bugs 🤣🤣🤣 can't wait to hear about it
Oh it's a story! lol
we've had a similar experience 😂
If anyone knows what Sheila said when they walked by the retro class C van, please let me know. I replayed it like 5 times and I couldn’t understand it. I feel like I missed a good joke. Thanks in advance. 😀
We didn’t hear it either…☹️
We could not figure it out either!!!
We replayed it too… with the sound all the way up. Still didn’t get it.
She said “ it’s spelled different “. The rv said lazy daze and Todd thought it was the Rv dealership lazy days !!

See --- I knew some of the crew would know it!
But do you know the Bird of Paradise song??😂
Been in hotels and ran the next day.
Love the banter! Rhonda and I hit 25 years on the 20th! We totally get it. Thanks for the laughs!
Congrats on 25 years!! Maybe you can get some new flip flops as a gift 😄
