Jax almost looks like he is back to himself. Yay! A day at a time with him. Jax's face is looking so much better!
Gosh, Eric, you look so much happier now that Jax is doing better!! It's such great news that his meds are working effectively...just love seeing him on his new leash walking with you outside!! Things are looking up now that you're leaving Illinois!! Safe travels!!!
Illinois is a sess pool. I was born and raised there.
Prayers to Jax everyday checking in on him. Jax looks like my best friend Zack I had 19 years. So yes I cry and get weepy. Happy 1st Christmas Tara! Eric you can do Christmas any dang day you want! Cheers to you!
Seeing Jax out and about and looking SO much better has made my day.
And christmas? Not my thing. I love seeing how happy it makes you though!
Glad Jax is doing so much better, it’s good to see you much happier.
So happy to see Jax feeling better! We live in Indiana and when I was a child (I’m 52 now) Holiday World was called Santa Claus Land. So many good memories and it will always be Santa Claus Land to me.
After the last two years of weirdness with lock-downs, shots and everything else, you go right ahead and do what makes you happy!! We all should do something to brighten up our spirits! Take care and God bless Jax, Tara and you!
So glad to see Jax-man up and about. You can still see a little puffiness on his face, but it's much better. Christmas tree in early October? A totally Eric thing to do. Tara is the sweetest little angel baby!
Sooooooo happy to see Jax 100% better and happy. God bless you, Jax anda Tara!
❤️❤️Oh dude, am soooooo happy to see Jax doing so well and you look more at ease too and happy. This makes me happy and I thank you for sharing all your adventures, even the sad and scary ones. Love ya Eric and love you to Jax & Tara❤️❤️
Loved the tour of Santa Claus! I had a big smile throughout the video! It's never too early for Christmas and a Christmas 🎄! So glad Jax is feeling better!
I like that you celebrate the way you want. I used to have a snowman collection I kept up all year. The snowmen(and women) made me happy. I'm rebuilding my collection. Thanks for the inspiration.
I love how you follow your bliss and I'm so glad Jax is on the mend. Tara is a sweetie!
Awesome love the Christmas tree we all need to enjoy what we love
Also there’s a place called North Pole in Alaska!
Oh my Eric❣️ You made grandma Iris' eyes leak with your letter to Santa. May God bless you and the fur babies with health and happiness 🙏✌️🌎💞
The $138 price per night is incorrect. The price per night at the Santa Claus Rudolph camp ground is $51 per night with a two night minimum. That price is the same no matter if you book during the week or on a weekend. Please be careful when making statements, as misinformation can really hurt small businesses and towns. As you mentioned, Santa Claus is a small town and they generate revenue from tourism. Things will be a bit higher in price, just like Disney and other tourist destinations, but make sure you quote the accurate numbers.
Seeing your Christmas tree set up in your home made me feel strangely at peace and comfort. Thank you Eric!
Eric, I love Christmas too & I was thrilled when I lived 9 miles outside of Solvang, CA for a few years!! It's a magical Danish town in the mountains about 30-45 minutes from Santa Barbara, CA, with lots of Christmas stores!! I felt as though I was in heaven to be able to go into town every day because my daughter attended school in Solvang!! I hope you, Jax & Tara will have an opportunity to visit there someday!! It's a destination not to be missed!! Enjoy the run up to the holidays, Eric!! Love your Christmas tree & blue lights...the best color of all!! The sooner the tree is up, the longer you will be in the holiday spirit!! Like you said, "It's your life"!! Be safe, Be happy & most of all, joyful!!!
So happy Jax is better…the town of Santa Claus was just what you needed and I love the Christmas tree.
You and Jax and Tara just bring a smile to my face every time!! So thank u so much. I’m still in recovery mode from Ida so just want u to know how much that brings to me! ❤️
So glad Jax is feeling better😻
My husband and I are from Evansville, and we took a trip mid December of 2014 for some Christmas fun, and he proposed to me there! Also, this is really cool, Fozzy(Chris Jericho's band) filmed their latest music video on the Voyage rollercoaster at Holiday World. Aww, the kitties are so cute!
I LOVE Christmas and would have my tree up too. What a wonderful gift to see Jax feeling better! ❤️❤️
Happy to see Jax is doing well.
You must have missed Bronner’s The Worlds Largest Christmas Store in Frankenmuth, MI and don’t miss Christmas, MI.
The sweetest Christmas wish I have ever seen. We'dBee tearing up. An awesome video! Love & hugs to Jax & Tara. Bee Safe.
14:20 Jax getting robust, Tara getting rotund. 😸
Ladies are NEVER rotund! Zaftig, perhaps , or pleasingly plump, but rotund is what they called Vice-President John Adams, when he suggested the President be called "His Excellency", they started calling Adams "His Rotundity".
I am happy to see Jax is doing so well. Santa Claus is a wonderful place. Thank you for the tour. I am keeping Jax, Tara and you in my prayers.
I love it….I’m a Christmas guy myself so I’m all for it!
It’s awesome to see Jax feeling better, and it nice to see the OLD nomadic fanatic (aka Eric) it makes for way more entertaining video!
Wow thank you to that vet.! Jax looks way better. You can see it in his face. Yay! They both are so precious.
Aren't we all in a better mood having watched this? 😁 😸 Happy to see Jax out and about. 🐾
So very happy Jax is feeling better!!! He looks so much better. Very glad for you Eric.
Good for you Eric, I love Christmas too! Glad to see Jaxx is getting better! We all love you here in Tenino WA
I remember Tenino! There were only one or two families there. I was told the town got it's name because it was a whistle-stop for a train or a route or something numbered 1090.
@@angelajohnson5728
Angela, I don’t know if that is true but it could be! The town is still small and we don’t have any traffic lights! I only lived here for about two years now and love it very much! People here are friendly and we have a farmers market during the summer to sell our crops! Sure beats city life! All the best to you and your family, John
I share your love of Christmas and the decorations. Your smile when you showed us you put up your Christmas tree. That is pure happiness! You’re right. You only live once. 🎄
So great to see Jax doing so much better!!!
It's so good to see Jax getting back to himself. Good to see a happier more relaxed Eric!
So cool to see Jax looking kinda good old Jax, kudos to you Eric for taking such good care of Jax.
Eric, it hit me hard when you wrote your letter to Santa. I can't quit crying. We love our fur babies. Thankfully you and Jax will have many more adventures.
I LOVE seeing the Christmas 🎄 Trees up already!! Good for you man!!!!! Also- I have had cats that lived to 18 and 21 years old!! Jax is still looking at a lot of good fuzzy years ahead!! Happy Holidays and Merry early Christmas 🎅🏻!!
I'm glad JaxMan is feeling better! Love that kitty!♥️♥️ Safe travels to you all.
I'm so happy Jax is better ,I was praying for him and you. I have watched you for several years. I always pray for you and Jax.I have seen the United States, thanks to you.
Home is where your heart is - Santa Claus, Indiana. I couldn't think of a better Christmas wish, either. I think the tree looks very festive & you look so happy & so do the kitties. Stay safe. Be merry! Aloha!
Just love the intro featuring Jax the King looking & doing so much better. A relief that he's getting back to his normal self. Interesting - Santa Claus attraction in IN. And it's fine to have a lighted Christmas Tree every day of the year. Also a good idea - having a home base in or close to a Christmas Village attraction - that's the spirit of fun! thumbs up from our kitty kids!
I have some Christmas lights up all year round :) So glad that Jax is doing better!!!!!
No hating from here. I have friends, who started out as landlords, became friends and I was also their house/critter sitter, that leave Christmas up year round. It makes them happy and that's all that matters. The leg lamp and Christmas tree together add to the whole Christmas story vibe. FUN!
I’m so happy that Jax is doing better. Best wishes for his continued recovery.
Did my heart good to see Jax outside!!💖 Santa Claus town was Awesome, Merry Halloween😉 Thanks Eric :) xoxo Jax & Tara
So happy that Jax is feeling better. He looks alot better then a few days ago. Still keeping you guys in my prayers. Have fun and be safe.
Very nice, I also love to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
Glad Jax is doing better! Merry Christmas Eric! It’s always Christmas for me! My favorite time of the year!
Ive been hearing that Disneyworld will stop some of their shuttle/bus service at the end of the year. That maybe these buses will be auctioned off. The ultimate Disney collectable, then made into a RV! Just a thought.
That would be epic.
Problem is they're not owned by Disney I believe Mears owns the buses
According to wikipedia, there is about 45 gillig low floors. these are 40 foot long 11'3 high. That will need to be replaced no matter who owns them. These are usually transit buses. These would be ok to restore and convert.
Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas!!! I'm glad Jax is feeling better. 👍🏻🎅🏻
MY TREE STAYS UP "ALL YEAR".....CAUSE "IT MAKES ME HAPPY" & that's who matters..."ME"❤️
Jax is looking good! Yeah I like the Cracker Barrel’s. Very cool little town.
Absolutely thrilled Jax Man is feeling better. Our fur babies are our children. Praying for the little man daily.
Christmas is my favorite holiday too. I went to Holiday World once yet didn't get to see any of the other Santa Claus, IN stuff. Thank you so much for sharing. One of these days I really hope to go back to Santa Claus, IN AND Holiday World. We (the fans) so glad Jax is doing much better.
Life is short Eric. Celebrate your holidays and live your life in whatever way makes you happy. I think an early Christmas tree is just what we all need right now. (Healing wishes for Jax) 👏🎄
Hahaha!!!that was so funny about Tara flahing us...so happy to see Jax doing better and you are getting better too. You are s good man Eric, i pray the best for you and your fur babies. Take care be safe and be happy. As a 71 years old i see u as one more of my grandchild. God bless you and thank you from Orlando, FL.
I appreciate you showing Indiana. Just moved here less than a month ago and you are giving me ideas of places to visit! Thanks!!!
So happy Jax is better! And seriously, I could leave my Christmas stuff up year round... Enjoy it
The owner at Santa’s Candy Castle is AWESOME!!! I did this trip the last 4 year’s. I filmed a video with him, and he took the time out and went through his whole place with me and the film/file was lost 😡. Now that I am a FA ✈️ my girl’s pick to go warm places, but we enjoyed the last several weekend trips that we would do in early December to Santa Claus, Indians. This place is truly magical!!! This was the year that we did not go and seeing this video...I miss it.
So happy to see Jax getting better. 😻. And happy to see you back on the road and showing fun stuff. 👍🏻👍🏻
Holliday world one of the best amusement parks in the 🇺🇸
Hella yeah. The Legend is legit, and I love the Scarecrow Scrambler, but I usually spend the majority of the day in Splashin Safari lol. I am THE champ at Jungle Racer
Awesome Eric! I’m in love w/ Christmas too! I’m happy to see that your happy & Jax is doing better, Tara is cute, a bundle of energy. Thanks for sharing Santa Claus, Indiana. I’ll add it to my Bucket Lists. Healing prayers to Jax, peace to all of you.😻🙏🏽
The whole month of December isn’t enough time to enjoy Christmas or a tree and as many ornaments as you have. Be happy and do what you do. We love it or we wouldn’t watch you.
Christmas???? Its barely even October!!! Are you out of your...... I love it! Trigger the haters and listen for heads exploding LOL. A Very (super early) Merry Christmas, Eric, Jax, and Tara!
Hey Eric if I had my way I would have a room decorated year round, it's my favorite holiday just because of the decorations and music...
As it is now my family has a fit if I play Christmas music before Thanksgiving...
Hahaha! "Gotta get through Halloween" ?!??? Hahaha. You never give Thanksgiving that kind of break. Great video, as always. Love that you could retire in a town like that. Lots of supportive comments today. Love you and the kitties so much.
Santa Claus, Indiana is an interesting area and Holiday World has two of the best ‘water coasters’ in the country! They use magnetic tech like the Superman rides in other parks, to accelerate your raft up the flume track - amazing rides!
I’m so happy to see Jax doing so much better and your smile. I know how stressful it is to worry about our babies. Keeping good thoughts. Safe travels.
You brought a smile to my face! I loved that you put up your Christmas tree. Think I’ll put one of mine up now too!!!! Ever since we lost our son Branden I’m looking for a bit of joy in each day. Your tour of Santa Claus Indiana was wonderful too. That’s a trip we will be taking soon since we’re only 15 miles to the Indiana border….Santa Claus here we come. I’m so glad that Jax is doing better too. Thank you Eric for your videos. You always brighten my day. May you be blessed and always have a safe journey ♥️🎅🏻🧑🏻🎄🤶 🦯 🎄🎄🎄🎄
I remember going to Santa Claus land as a kid before they changed it to holiday world
Jax's ❣️ The tow along looks awesome. Go Eric ❤️
Jax is OUT!!! YAYYYYYY.... Way To Go Jax... So happy he is so improved... That's wonderful...
I always liked that song, "Santa Claus Lives In Santa Cruz." 😺🙂
Oh wow. Get well Jax. Even on camera, he looks tiny. He appears smaller than Tara now. Love all of the Christmas stuff and great tree. People need to enjoy life. Safe travels and thanks again Eric for sharing so much.
Eric, I’ve lived within 20 minutes of Santa Claus, Indiana my whole life. Holiday World used to be called Santa Claus Land before. As impressive as it is that millions of people visit every year it wasn’t our small time amusement park later on. Way too many people visit it now. If you want to ride anything without long lines and waiting you have to go late in the year before the season finishes and the tourists leave.
It makes me happy that Jax is doing better. I live in North Pole, Alaska, and it's all Santa Claus themed as well, with candy cane street lights and a Santa Claus house. We have parades for Santa. Christmas year round!
Made me smile. Don't let the crazies get you down.
Never knew about that little town in Indiana, how interesting, and cute! Glad to see Jax is feeling better. I'll keep the prayers burning.
So glad Jax is starting to feel better and I love the Christmas tree! I am going to put mine up early too.
Lincoln state park is a good place to camp. It is about 3 miles from Santa Claus. I went to the high school there in Lincoln City. Actually, we came up from FL this week and are at Scales lake campground in Warrick co. Came in to go to the Westside Nut Club Fall Festival in Evansville, IN.
Love the tree! Jax is a lucky kitty to have a dad like you. You are a great caregiver, provider and companion to Jax& Terra.
So glad Jax is feeling better 😁
Ok ok ok you twisted my arm, I’m getting my Christmas tree out this weekend! 🎄🎄🎄
We have a customer in Santa Claus, Indiana, a place called Holiday World. Ironically they are closed the whole month of December.
So glad that’s JAX is doing so much better 💜 Yes I agree live you own life & be happy. Thanks for sharing your journey 🍾🥂🎄
Awesome.. glad Jax is better 🙏 I love Christmas ❤🌲 ready for it already too 🎄
So relieved for you guys now that Jax is feeling better. ❤
Merry Christmas Eric. Jax and Tara too! 🎄 ❤
Cool place thanks for taking us along. And no worries, I'd leave my tree up year round if my wife would let me 😄🎄💕
I love Christmas too, thanks for showing us Santa Claus town. Jax looks good.
Glad to see Jax feeling better. Santa Claus, Indiana looks like a lot of fun to visit
Yup, you do what makes you happy brotha! Even if its putting up a dozen trees! It's YOUR RV, It's your happiness, it's your life. NO ONE should tell you how to live it! Jax IS looking much better!
What a sweet video. Loved it. Well I might not post on every video but im watching and giving a thumbs up. Im the one that asked if you were going to revisit the Christmas story house but you've already done that so understand why you wouldn't want to go again. Its definitely my favorite Christmas movie. Lolol again great video glad you found your magnet. Prayers are with jacks on good health always.
Yay...Jax is on the mend. Eric, so great to see you and the kitties doing well. Loved the video. I love Christmas too...who doesn't??
Christmas 🎅 🎄 is my favorite holiday too 💖… Its so heartwarming.
good video.... Eric, you have to try FRANKENMUTH in Michigan one day.... Christmas all over the place including the largest Christmas store in the world
Yep, good food at the Bavarian Inn, and lots and lots of time at Bronners! 🎄🎅🤶
Awesomeness that Jax is doing better 🥳 Happy Trails Eric 🎄💫🎅🏼
Fantastic to see Jax doing better! We are so happy to see the improvement.
Hope you can rest easy now.
