Happy belated birthday, Tara!🎈It's all downhill from here. I'm a whopping ten years older, so I know. I'm glad 2c/u back in ur big rig. When Daddy said to sit, Daisy did! Impressive👋🤓Chad was truly sorry about leaving his wallet behind and took full responsibility 😉The view at the place where you stayed was top-notch!
Thank you for posting this. I need to go there. Utah is not that far, and I haven't been there since I was little. Now that I'm older and retired and alone now I need to start doing some things on my own. I have not had time to watch your channel in months, so I have a lot of catching up to do. My wife was very sick and I lost her on the first of September. Now I need to find my new normal. One thing is to travel. So again, thank you for posting this as it has given me an idea for a trip. Take care you two. And Tara happy 50th.
Chad; hey! Two things came to mind when you were trying to reach your luggage. 1). Buy a Grab Stick ( some are longer than others), & 2). Build a flat mini tray with a rope puller, to pull those boxes/suitcases up towards you!!
Happy and Blessed Birthday, Tara! On the issue of missing the ferry the 1st time, dark clouds have silver linings. That Long Beach boarding and sailing was for you. Continued safe and happy travels. 💙🤍❤️🙏🏾
Wow, Cool vintage trailer! That is pretty deep storage. Oh my. That is a lot of fog! OOOHHH NOO! These things happen to all of us. Glad you could have a plan B. Happy day you were born Tara! 🥳 - Jim & Michelle
Welcome to Cal. Guys. Hope you had fun for Tara's birthday. Looks like allot of fun on Catalina. Thanks again for a great video. hope you both have continued safe travels.
Lake EL-sin-oar (Elsinore). I was living in a high rise waterfront apartment building in downtown Seattle when I turned 50 (2004), working for a small 5-person architectural firm. Everyone from my work plus about 5 of my non-work buddies and a couple of my work-related friends all pooled together to buy a block of tickets right behind the Mariner's dugout at Safeco Field to watch the Mariners play the NY Yankees (boo-hiss). It was a little windy and chilly (early May in Seattle), but otherwise a clear and sunny day, an afternoon game, that went into extra innings. Seattle lost the game, boo-hoo, but I learned that a few days later, as a bunch of us left the game at the top of the 10th inning and went drinking in Seattle's Stadium District. The structural engineer who was one of our group and who had brought his son (and who was also a huge baseball fan) stayed to the end of the game and his son actually was able to snag a fly ball pop-up in the 11th inning, kinda wish I'd stuck around to see that, but on the other hand, Andy (the engineer) and his son had been sitting directly behind me, and as I did not have or bring a glove to the game, there's a good chance I'd have been beaned by the ball had I stayed (especially in the 11th inning, I don't think any of us who left in the 10th inning were still totally sober, hahaha, but we were walking, so no error, no foul). And while I had purchased a semi-generic Mariners jacket a year or so earlier, as a birthday gift to myself, a week or so before my birthday I had also bought myself an official MLB Mariners team jacket, a Mariners team jersey, as well as a pair of kinda funky Mariners earrings with the team logo. One of the buddies I'd invited had a fairly large Mariners flag that she waved to help keep the group together as we walked from my apartment down to the stadium (about 12 blocks)...we were quite the spectacle, hahaha. It was a great birthday, appropriate for turning 1/2 a century, a day I will never forget. I hope your 50th was as enjoyable and memorable and Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Tara. 🎉 I lived in Lake Elsinore for nearly ten years. The Ortega Highway is always a gamble on traffic or an accident. It’s a great ride, though on a clear day. Never stayed in the park but launched from the docks plenty of times. Nice nostalgic views of passing through the town. Thanks!
Well, what a milestone birthday. Happy belated birthday ❤ Tara. Regardless of who, what , mistakes made, it all worked out . That is the important part. That looks like a very pretty place. Glad it all worked out for y'all. I hope y'alls cabin is all ok after the remnants of the hurricane went through and hoping y'all were gone when it went through. God bless y'all and stay safe on your travels.
Love y’all’s videos!! Y’all remind me of me and my husband so much! 55 years of marriage! I love the relationship between you two!! Y’all are so funny and honest and real!we love y’all!! Keep up the good work! Doug & Doris Chattanooga Tennessee!! & Dee Dee our little camper!! Safe travels to y’all!
Oh boy you got to experience the Ortega Highway. So many accidents happen on it. Glad you made it with minimal delay. Would have been cool to run into you both while you were out our way. 😁
🎉Fantastic, Happy Birthday, Never been to those places, love the place you are staying at. Links? And can’t tell you how many times I have left something behind, felt the embarrassment 😅 looking forward to more of this adventure. Tara, you look beautiful and when you dress up to go out I’m sure Chad is saying WOW. Congratulations to you both, safe travels 😎
Happy Half a century birthday Tara...extremely belated! Cool adventure, reminds me of the old 20000 leagues under the sea ride at Disney world growing up as a kid!
Hope you guys, your place in NC AND your parents are OK! I live in Rutherford County and know what we look like. It's hard to imagine what happened up in your areas with Helene. Be safe!
Hey, Happy Birthday🎉 Catalina the UFOer's would tell you there a base south-west of it underwater LOL they see a lot of them around there like the tic-tac ones. 😊
Chad, that hwy 62 from Yucca Valley down the hill to the 10 freeway is STEEP and if I recall, the lanes aren't normal width, a little narrow. We travel to Havasu often and take the hwy 177 toward Desert Center to the 10 freeway to avoid that plus its a smoother drive. Both routes get you there...There's a huge solar farm in Desert Center too. Nice nest there in Catalina you folks had. Lots of things to do there...hope you got to have a Buffalo Burger while there.
Chad; Just as a note, we have a copy of our drivers license and passport hidden inside of the suit cases. This worked out well when I lost my wallet at Disney World.
We took the 5th wheel from Cape May N.J. to Lewes De. Had to board two hours before high tide (7 am) became we have low clearance and the height is 13’4” they have sensors to check the height. It’s a hour and a half ride 17 miles. Cheaper than driving 177 miles and paying tolls.
Omg. Next time you come to The LA area please message us. Lake Elsinore to Dana Point. Yikes! Then to Long Beach. Yikes! LA traffic is terrible almost anytime of the day.
I am surprised your airtag did not alert you before you went too far, my airtag sends a notice within 2-blocks of where I left it. Glad it worked out & happy birthday.
Hi Tara! Happy 50th! You look great! I saw you go through an RV inspection in this video. I've never camped in CA and have never seen an RV inspection stop before. Can you discuss this in a video? What are they inspecting?
Wow, what a great video! My wife and I go to Catalina several times a year and stay in one of the hotels. Where did you find that place you stayed? It looked perfect!
Um, why do you have so many foam pads in the attic? LOL. That fog is scary. We get it here too and it is no fun. So sorry you had such troubles. Everyone forgets their wallet or purse or phone sometimes. The California coast is spectacular and I miss it.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that too. I have a dog the size of daisy, did the BC ferry here in canada last year, n dogs not allowed on upper decks they have to stay in vehicles even on the under lower decks, so i kept my dog in a carrying bag to go on the upper decks basically concealing her, but what a pain in the arse they make it! No way can i leave her in a vehicle for couple hours by herself n they don't allow u to stay in your vehicle either 🙄. 🍻
Happy belated BD 🍭🎂. Half a century young lol. What the heck is this California inspection station? Does everyone have to go through it? n what r they inspecting for? 🍻
I realize this question is out of sequence, but are you and your family OK in and around your cabin after Helene? Thinking the best for everyone in that area.
hey guys that place looks amazing! Chad i recently bought the Dewalt tire inflator after I saw it would work on 5th wheel high pressure.. I either got a lemon or something because as soon as I hit "play" it shuts down immediately with a code on the screen, something like OL ..was wondering if you have experienced anything like this.. thx man , safe travels
I have the same inflator. I think that's a battery code. Are you sure your battery is charged & fully seated. If not, hopefully you have time to return.
@meandthelady9141 Take the unit apart. In it you will see a fan. Clean any dust or grime on or around it, as well as the bearing. OL is overload meaning it's getting to much physical resistance when starting and needs those parts cleaned.
Sorry, you are a sailor. You are required to produce your military ID upon demand. After 21 years of Naval Service, my ID is in my wallet, and my wallet is in my pocket. If it ain't there, I don't feel dressed. Sheesh...
Happy birthday Tara. You are the same age as I am. I turn 50 this year too. You are very blessed. Love all you did for your 50th.
Happy & Blessed Birthday Tara!
❤🎂💐❤️

You are in my neck of the woods!! 😊. Happy birthday, Tara. ❤
Happy birthday Tara!! I loved the fact that y'all took Daisy with you on your trip. Safe travels!
Happy birthday Tara. Chad don’t beat yourself up, things happen. I have a feeling you will never forget your wallet again! The video was great!
Happy Birthday Tara. Thanks for the lookback on Catalina. I went to High School there 1966-1970. 😊
Happy birthday Tara !
What an amazing experience !! 😢wallet, I felt your pain !! Daisy is so sweet.

Happy birthday, Tara! It looks like you guys had a great time on Catalina Island, and it'll be cool to see what else you did there.
Welcome to Cal. Guys. Hope you had fun for Tara's birthday. Looks like allot of fun on Catalina. Thanks again for a great video. hope you both have continued safe travels.
Thanks so much! We had a blast!

Happy Birthday Tara. What a fun trip. I was there over 30 years ago. Looks a lot different to me. Great video as always❤️
(Lake El-sin-or.) Love the music in the video. So good.
I hate the music!! READY TO GO? Ready to throw up.
@@bookooc5605 Everyone is entitled to their own opinions.
Thanks for taking us along on such a fun adventure. However, Chad forgetting his wallet seems incredible to me. It is like forgetting to wipe !
😂🤣😂 This comment made me laugh out loud! I think the excitement of the trip (and the early wake up call) caused him to forget.
Happy Half a century birthday Tara...extremely belated! Cool adventure, reminds me of the old 20000 leagues under the sea ride at Disney world growing up as a kid!
It was a blast! Thank you!
Happy Birthday Tara! from Upper East TN.
Happy 50th! We were stationed in San Diego for 10 yrs back in the early 90s and never made it over to the island. Hope you enjoyed your time there.
Thanks so much! We really enjoyed our time there!
Happiest of birthdays 🎂!!!!
Happy Birthday! Beautiful trip
Happy birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday Tara and Chad that had to be a bummer to forget your wallet. I'm Glad it all worked out and everything happens for a reason. Yall enjoy
Happy Birthday !!!!
Happy 50th Birthday
Wow! That was a fun adventure. Wait a minute…. Shoot I forgot my wallet 😮. Oh boy have I been there before. Thanks for sharing the fun.
Hope you guys, your place in NC AND your parents are OK! I live in Rutherford County and know what we look like. It's hard to imagine what happened up in your areas with Helene. Be safe!

Welcome to a Kentucky campground. Spotted you. We are in the Gray DYNAMAX super c with the jeep on the back.
Hi Tara! Happy 50th! You look great! I saw you go through an RV inspection in this video. I've never camped in CA and have never seen an RV inspection stop before. Can you discuss this in a video? What are they inspecting?
It's Lake el-sin-or. Some say it's el-sin-your. It's down south of me
Welcome to California....sorry for the heat. Stay safe and cool.🤗💖🙏🇺🇸🥵🥵🥵😂🤣
I know that feeling Chad. It sucks!! I noticed that Tara wasn’t disagreeing with your “I’m so dumb” comment.😂
A year out to sea USNavy, didn't need to carry a wallet, forgot numerous times after returning state side!
Wow, what a great video! My wife and I go to Catalina several times a year and stay in one of the hotels. Where did you find that place you stayed? It looked perfect!
Happy Birthday! Snaps on the outside are for bug screens.
Just as a thought - I keep a spare credit card in my glove compartment just incase I have a senior moment.
By the way, Hwy 74, Ortega Hwy, is the same road they filmed "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" on mostly the beginning of the film.
Um, why do you have so many foam pads in the attic? LOL. That fog is scary. We get it here too and it is no fun. So sorry you had such troubles. Everyone forgets their wallet or purse or phone sometimes. The California coast is spectacular and I miss it.
The Queen needs some paint.
Can you tell me what carrier you are using for Daisy and also are dogs then allowed on the ferry? Thanks!!!!!!
I was pleasantly surprised to see that too. I have a dog the size of daisy, did the BC ferry here in canada last year, n dogs not allowed on upper decks they have to stay in vehicles even on the under lower decks, so i kept my dog in a carrying bag to go on the upper decks basically concealing her, but what a pain in the arse they make it!

I realize this question is out of sequence, but are you and your family OK in and around your cabin after Helene? Thinking the best for everyone in that area.
Highway 74 is always a great ride, but the weather can destroy your drive.
I pray your home and family in the Mountains are safe and ok?
I live about 10 miles from lake Elsinore
Happy birthday at a young age of 50
Stuff happens. Life's short. I encourage you not to give this a second thought.
hey guys that place looks amazing! Chad i recently bought the Dewalt tire inflator after I saw it would work on 5th wheel high pressure..

Chad is currently traveling, so he's not able to respond. I will have hime take a look at your question, once he's off the road ☺
@meandthelady9141 Take the unit apart. In it you will see a fan. Clean any dust or grime on or around it, as well as the bearing. OL is overload meaning it's getting to much physical resistance when starting and needs those parts cleaned.
i appreciate the reply ty.. unfortunately the unit is brand new out of the box @AmJaxineer
it works fine up to like 90psi . I run 120 in the fith wheel and it shuts down immediately
Ouch...You took Ortega Hwy.
How did y'all do with the NC flooding?
Seeing as they live on top of a big hill, they probably did just fine. Cheers
Now, remove the windows and lock yourself in for a couple months to get the real submarine experience, 😂😂...former ET1(SS) here.
Happy Birthday! All downhill now................joke
It kind of feels that way these days LOL Thanks for the birthday wishes! 😊
EL SI NOR
Is your house ok
Doesn't Tara have a credit card? I have left my wallet behind at times, and while inconvenient, my wife has her credit cards, so nothing is lost
Sorry, you are a sailor. You are required to produce your military ID upon demand. After 21 years of Naval Service, my ID is in my wallet, and my wallet is in my pocket. If it ain't there, I don't feel dressed. Sheesh...
Plus...you're driving without a license. Sheesh...
I think the excitement of the trip got to him. We all make mistakes 😜😜
Boy no kidding. Glad some people are perfect.
Watch out, Mr. Perfect. The last perfect person was crucified. Shesh
Well said!!!!
Who leaves home without their wallet?
Geeeeeez ..... You guys usually have "decent" vids ..... Sorry but this just wasn't .............. smh
Happy Birthday Tara!
Happy Birthday 🎉
