    OMGoodness!! I’ve missed the cookbook twice, now. I’m so glad they’re being scooped up, but come on people! Leave one for me! 😁😁😁

    Flip your handrail over the door so if it ever pops open from flexing it stays closed.

    Check out Cades Cove while you are in the area. They have primitive camping. Wednesday is a great day to ride your bike around the loop because it's not open to vehicles.

    Would love to get your cookbook. By the time I knew it was available, they were gone. Have you thought about a pre-order system? Then you’ll have funds for a larger printing volume, know how to gage your order count, and totally get all your fans excited and waiting for their copy.

    The road runs from Gatlinburg, TN thru the Smokies to Cherokee, NC. The middle being New found Gap where the TN/NC state line runs thru the parking lot. Usually you can see elk on the Ocunaluftee entrance on the Cherokee side. Cades cove is always good to see wildlife, we saw 3 bears, deer and turkey this past weekend.

    Beautiful! I've always wanted to go to the Appalachian area, so now I can go with you! May i suggest to you to latch the pull up handle, the 1 to the left of your entry door, close it over the door? We do this with our trailer and we feel that it adds an extra layer of protection to keep the door closed. We are looking forward to this trip with you 2. Be safe, ENJOY!!

    I watch a lot of youtube videos. Most I can see or not. Your videos are never missed. They are always interesting, beautiful scenery, amazing content. You guys are just fun to listen to explain what you have learned. You stop and show the waterfalls and the trees. You show details of like grocery shopping so interesting. Dont change a thing. I love your videos.

    Kellie, Vitamin D3 can help lower back pains! Try that. 10000 iu's/day. Take with Vit K2, magnesium glycinate and about 15mg of zinc for better absorbtion. The K2 is to stop mild calcium buildup in circulatory system over time with the D3. Enjoyed the vid!! Love the Apps!

    There's so much to do in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We were there a few weeks ago.
    Watch out for bears. They have been active. When we were there the hiking trails were closed due to bear activity.

    @roadtriplover. Год назад +4

    One thing I suggest for you is that you turn the handle into the camper so that it is over your entrance door rather than to the side. Ive actually seen someone’s RV door open as they were riding down the hwy. That handle will keep that from happening. I do the same when traveling with my RV.

    • @peachykeen6185
      @peachykeen6185 Год назад

      I know this comment section is a little old but I agree with this!! I love this channel and I love watching y’all together! The bond you two share is so nice to see and witness! Love and relationships nowadays are a joke; so it’s super refreshing: My parents took us to Ocean Lakes Campground in Myrtle Beach, SC and the door to the camper came flying open and actually broke from the force and we had to replace the whole door and get the dents and scrapes on the side of our 5th wheel fixed and repainted from where the door hit it. crazy crazy crazy 🙃 really wish dealership’s/sellers would warn their clients of incidents like these. We got lucky for lack of better words, it could’ve been so much worse!! Hope y’all are staying warm and staying SAFE! I pray for y’all every night in my night prayer journal to stay safe and healthy! So so so many evil predators out there 😰 and then there’s also bears, mountain lions, snakes etc. 😂😂 love you guys and have fun!! 🤍😮‍💨🤞🏽

    We just got back from Gatlinburg, last Monday. We went down for my birthday as we do every year to see the colors from 11/4 to 11/7. This year the peak colors were 2nd and 3rd week of October. Last year everyone that came in October was disappointed. The peak was the first and second week of November, so it is hit and miss. We stay at Clabough’s RV park in Pigeon Forge on Wears Valley Rd (hwy 321) headed to Townsend, TN. Great video! We live in Louisville, KY so about 5 hrs to the Smokies!

    new sub, love your camper lifestyle. try walking every day, for your back pain. make yourself do at least 10,000 steps a day. even if you need to walk around your truck for an hour. during covid I walked around my living room couch for two hours every day lol walking is one of the best exercises you can do.

Also, Cades Cove to see bears! The road north/south from Cherokee, stop and see the deer and elk!......Those coasters are fun!...........Make sure you hit up a cave too! Elkmount is a beautiful campground too!

    Glad your out and about! We hope to see you on the road!

  • @amyheflin143
    @amyheflin143 Год назад +2

    So glad to see you traveling and camping in the Cherokee National Forest and Great Smokies. It looked like you might be on Hwys 441 and 64 some of the time: both take you to some beautiful scenery-some of the waterfalls, lakes and streams are beside the highways. I highly recommend travel through the Ocoee and Nantahala Gorges heading into North Carolina. The curving roads make you slow down and enjoy the journey. Happy travels.

  • @veldasellers4021

    If you want another cool, off the beaten path place to check out, it's near waynesville North Carolina. Cataloochee. I saw a mountain lion and a bear. Usually, only locals or people from the other side of the world show up here. It's very cool to walk the trails around there & see the old stone chimneys of the old cabins that once were inhabited. You guys will love Gatlinburg too 😊

    Love the soup! Does your awning work? That would be nice to have one out the back if you needed to cook while it rained. Such an amazing setup! I hope we get to see dome life on the side of your rig. I think it still works perfectly as there's a dome to the camper and a dome to your truck.

    Love the set up. Love what you have done. We have a 2022 8801. Few tips. Have the 11lb propane but keep in the cubby outside. Fits perfect and don’t have to worry about theft. The outside table fits under the mattress. We have two and it’s perfect. Put a magnet for all yr cooking knives behind the stove. Also added extra shelves in the pantry. Add a spice rack to inside of door for spices. I was surprised at the microwave removal! But that’s was a great install. One other suggestion upgrade the front sway bar to hellwig. Huge improvement! Also I recommend lithium for battery’s and a dc to dc charger! With the driving you do you will always be full. These palominos are pre wired with solar set up but the dc to dc works amazing. Do you have a. Inverter? That’s great for cooking. Also I just installed a second max air! Will be looking for you on the east coast. We are up and down 75 all the time. Chattanooga has some amazing dispersed camping. Safe travels !

    Kellie for your lower back problem you should buy yourself a TENS UNIT it will control and help you with the pain. I carry one with me when I travel in my RV.
    It sounds like it's your L4-5 S-1 disc area. (lower back)
    You can purchase a tens unit on ebay just make sure it's a good one.
    Also, you might want to purchase Inversion table when you get back home.
    Hope this will help you in your travels. Be safe guys.
