Mass native here: I have been around that rotary a million times and have always thought “I wish Steve would stealth camp there” so glad to see someone else did it. That was awesome. Thanks for the video my friend
Worthy effort. I still think that a high viz. vest and a clipboard, would allow easy access, and simultaneously discourage people from calling the police. As you would look like a city employee or utility worker. Stealth On!
Mass native here: literally never seen that before, only touched the Atlantic with my hand once during one of the three times I've ever visited the Boston metro in my life.
Thanks William, you can certainly understand how busy it is as a native!! At one point I had to wait a full 4-5 minutes to cross hahaha. I did see a couple people taking photos there... this rotary definitely makes for a unique and memorable introduction to the Cape!
As a Native Cape Codder I have to tell you I will Never drive around that rotary again without thinking of you! I loved everything about this adventure and now I will become a follower of yours, thank you for making my day, week, month and years!
You know something really refreshing about this video and essentially all of your videos... the title is exactly the context of the video! No clickbait thumbnail or silly editing or sound effects, just a fearless guy with a camera taking us along for the adventure.
I love Steve's videos. It was so cool when I saw some on stealth camping. So it's really awesome to see some one else doing it, especially right near my home... take the tip from Steve's videos. Get some hi vise gear and look like a dot worker
@@lisabrennan420 Was just about to type the same thing. NOBODY here calls it a roundabout. Even the Irishman across the street who moved here from Ireland three years ago calls them rotaries.
Hey man, any Pine sap can be easly removed. Cover sap part with one news paper and iron it. It should stick to paper that way. Greetings from Slovenia.
Ballsy move camping there in the middle of that rotary. I love it. Some bureaucrat in plymouth county or with MSP are going crazy watching this. No doubt they are going to post no camping signs all over that rotary. Keep up the great content
Now you know of a new camping spot hahaha 😉 Seems like a sweet place to spend your childhood, although you gotta be tough during the winter!! ❄️ I spent a couple weeks on the Cape and it was fantastic! Thanks for watching bro
Wes! You are rocking this!! ❤ 😀 Thank you for honoring Steve Wallis too! I have been following him for years. I love how you include the history of the area and species names of animals. Your photography skills are mastered. Stay safe! 🙏 I look forward to your next adventure!❤
I agree. Its great that you give credit to Steve for inspiring you etc. Its a lot more awesome than trying make like you never heard of him while everyone can tell its like his vids. Very honourable! And of course awesome vids from start to finish.
We all joke about Steve and how he's more paranoid than Batman and on the FBI's most wanted list. But seriously. It's amazing how easy Steve makes it look and when others try it, they get caught or draw unwanted attention
Love the Cape. Back in the day we could go pick wild blue berries at the powerlines but I don't think that is possible anymore. Life back in the 80s and 90s on the Cape was amazing.
I live in Bourne. There are always cops all over Bourne during tourist season. Most of them know me and leave me alone but when I first moved here they stopped me all the time for silly things seemingly just to see what I was up to, they're definitely a bit nosy here but I haven't had any actual issues with any of them.
Well THAT raised my blood pressure! 😮 Very slick interaction with the cop. Glad you were ready with that “I’m making a documentary…” speech! Something tells me you’re gonna be needing that one again in the future! 😂 And nice shoutout to Steve. Can’t wait to see other adventures he’s inspired in you!
Thanks Bridget, I was really wondering if this one would work out... I'm thankful it did!! 🙏 I will have to keep that speech on hand, haha. Or maybe that I'm a birdwatcher - I learned that one from Steve! 😂 Thanks again for your support, glad you have been enjoying the adventures!!
The trick is to just walk out onto the roundabout and into the bushes in one "determined" move. When you move with purpose nobody gets suspicious and you would have made it the first shot in daylight. Walking around the thing half the day with all your cameras calls attention to yourself. Also, get a high vis traffic vest. Nobody questions people wearing a vest. Seems counter intuitive but it works.
Was just in Cape Cod, drove right by that rotary. Discovered the New England Lobster Roll in a quaint old restaurant in Woods Hole. Your video is making me hungry! What amazing adventures you have! Keep em coming and stay safe!
I've driven around that rotary easily 50 times in my life. Never occurred to me to try to camp on the island part of it. LOL Double bonus points for not getting a Bourne police visit. Not surprised the State Trooper saw you and wanted to chat. Will look at a few more of your videos to see if you decided to sleep somewhere else I've gone by. LOL Yeah, Shoutout to Steve Wallis....he's got some interesting ideas on where to spend the night.
This is and always will be home. I mom lives about 5 miles away from this rotary, in fact she told me to watch this. This made my heart smile. The canal is hands down my favorite place on earth. I hope you indulged in some Lobstah while you were there.
Man, I loved this episode of camping with Steve. I'm a Massachusetts native, so seeing you do this at that rotary that I've driven on dozens of times is so cool!
I've driven past this rotary many times. Would have never guessed to camp there. I honestly don't know how you managed to get away with that with the State Police being there and having to cross basically a highway to get to that spot. Your like Camping with Steve taken next level.
Did the same thing when I was younger. Camo tarp 4 stakes and a pole. The three of us had a blast. You should trek down cranberry highway there's tons of spots there....the cops suck on the cape regardless of what people reply on here
I know that stealth camping is the point of this video but I just find it funny that there is an actual Campground not 5 minutes from that road it's literally just down the street 0:06
The town cop was my son. He just sent me the video. He got a kick out of it. He said he was keeping an eye on him, but didn’t see him cross into the center.
Intriguing. Here in the UK we call these Roundabouts. There are loads of Roundabout camping videos as well as sleeping in a wide variety of random places. This guy speaks clearly. Others are not easy to understand. I do prefer it when someone talks to the viewers, not at them, or even worse never speaks.
Keep hunkering down my friend! Steve is such a breeze of fresh air in this superficial world and you are also one of that kind. More than thrilled for the next episodes. Seems like many more to come! End of September 50k. :)
Thanks again my good sir, really appreciate your support! I would keep on sharing these adventures even if they didn't get any views, so having people watch is a nice bonus :) We shall see about the 50k hahaha 🤞
Steve W. would have bored the cop to death with tales of a rare owl in the area. Love your content man, keep this great stuff coming. (We all love S.W. right)
After seeing CampingWithSteves “camping in a roundabout” video, I’ve always thought about someone doing it in the cape cod roundabout. Glad someone finally decided to do it!
I had to drop by that state police barracks for directions. They weren't happy to interact, and they didn't want to be bothered. That bridge is a nightmare during peak season, and I have spent hours waiting to cross. It was worth it. Cape cod is beautiful, especially the outer Cape.
I grew up around pine trees and yes sap is always getting on everything. The best thing I have found to remove the sap is called D-Solv-It which is a citrus based solvent cleaner. Just salk the spots in a bit and then scrub it out.
Believe this is an urban legend throughout New England. Used to believe this myself but dug a little deeper into it and no one is able to find substantial evidence to support this.
Oh wow ! I live here and i was not expecting to see this video!! I found your channel when you kayaked in Connecticut and camped on the tiny island. Big Camping with Steve vibes and the wife and I love your channel !! Hope you enjoyed the Cape!!
I didn't know there was a name for it besides "camping where you don't belong." Years ago while hitchhiking two consecutive summers, I found that some of the best camping could be found inside highway medians. I based camped for a week in one in Missouri. I also like state parks. And those enormous pine trees are great for camping under, you just happened along at the wrong time of year. I could completely cover myself in pine needles so even a cursory check, outside looking in, would not reveal me in my army surplus mummy bag. So, I was stealth camping? I am envious of your gear. Back in the late 60's lightweight gear like that simply didn't exist. Great video. 1st time viewer.
Hello Wes, you are my absolute favorite youtuber and a huge inspiration for me. In the country I live in (Germany) it is extremely difficult to camp ANYWHERE, but you have given me so many ideas and possibilities. Im only 16 yet, but when i get older, ill camp the world like you do. Cool guy.
Loved how adventurous you are and what a challenge, that rotary has to be one of the most busy and dangerous of all on Cape. Lived her most all my life and I wouldn't have had the guts to try it but thank goodness you made it! 😊
I have that rotary as my homescreen on my phone that I took from the Dunkin parking lot with my car in front of it. Now every time I see it I'm reminded somebody camped in there. That is awesome. Good for you man 🎉
Bloody hilarious. Reminded of one of our many lockdowns here in Melbourne during the Covid Carry-on. I walked to a mates place for a beer one valley over.the police helicopter was up sniffing around for someone. In the dark I bumped into half of my small town, all out doing the same thing. Magnificent. 🇦🇺👍🍺
This is awesome! I’ve driven or biked by there many times and each time my goal was to get away from that crazy traffic - I never once imagined camping there! 😂
You are near my neck of the woods and I love that SW inspired you to camp in a rotary! However, that rotary is VERY busy with police always around because of the tourists. I was not surprised to have one come up to you and thought you were going to find a flashlight in your face after dark. :O I was also concerned about you crossing that traffic as a pedestrian! Helpful hint removing pine sap.... use hand sanitizer. Rub it in and you will be able to lift it off. It's the alcohol in it but the viscosity helps to sit on the sap to soften it. Good luck! Love your channel!
Many years ago the inmates in New England County Jails were fed Lobster because it was so cheap. I just got back from going up to the Redwoods and then over to Mount Shasta and Mount Lassen. In the Avenue of the Giants I used to camp on the sly in the South Fork area of Humboldt County. It is private property owned by the big Timber Company. We found several hiding places. I loved doing that. The old NWP railroad ran through there and the track is still there. I am a Rail Fan. There are several tunnels which might be good for Stealth Camping. The train has not run for over 20 years. There are some disused Rolling Stock all along where the railroad went. It was shut down suddenly. There is a lot of railroad cars near Scotia, CA. Some call it the Ghost Train. Near the north side of Mount Shasta is a Veterans Memorial near Highway 97, north of Weed, CA. I slept in among the displays to honor Americas Veterans. Further east and south toward Mount Lassen are a few Snow Cabins for Snowmobiles and such. There are fairly abandoned during the summer. I slept by one last night called Deer Mountain to the south of State Highway 97. I really loved the stars. Some of this is fairly Stealthy and some is just totally legit Dispersed Camping.
I love Steve Wallis too. Also live about 20 minutes from this rotary. After watching his episode I literally said "Wow, it'd be freakin' crazy if someone camped in the Sandwich Cape Cod rotary!" and here we are! You just got yourself a new follower! Cool shit bro!
In a car detail shop, we would always use rubbing alcohol for tree sap, or lacquer thinner, but I doubt you'd wanna use thinner on your clothes. If you use rubbing alcohol, use 99%, and then rinse really good in cold water before you throw in washing machine.....
To remove sap, use "Skin so Soft". I swear on all things holy, it helped me so much growing up, I loved climbing trees. That stuff removes it from skin or clothes like it's nothing.
Hahaha amazing! I was one of the people that called the police on you. That rotary is wicked dangerous and I was like there’s a tourist that’s going to get himself hit! Glad the statie didn’t give you any trouble and that you had a safe night.
Used that once plus Dawn when in middle school I accidentally sat on a pine tree stump while waiting to be picked up. Still remember it all these years later XD
Man, 86k views and only 2.9k likes. What's wrong with people nowadays? Is it so difficult to hit that button? Wes is taking you on a camping places you either would never go yourself or could never get. Good job Wes. Pls continue doing it for the minority of us. Stay safe.
It’s a lot of work to make a video like this one, and I don’t understand why more people who take the time to watch the video don’t give it a thumbs up. Right now it is over 23K views and only 3.6K likes.
Reminds me when me and a friend camped in a 10 foot fishing boat that was a decoration in a roundabout in a Swedish equivalent to Cape Cod, Åhus, back in the 90s…
Holy crap, I would like to have died when the cop pulled up. You like covered yourself in butter and jumped into a lions den with all those police. You're the GOAT. Also, I agree Steve's round about was the best (and the first video I saw of his) love him. Also, when you're done on this trip, head to SoCal dude.
@AndrewMcAtee Hahaha yeah I was just trying to stay calm, thankfully everything went okay 🙏 I stay up in the Bay, but I will definitely head down to SoCal for some fun at some point. I do hope to take another road trip in the fall, so maybe then! Really appreciate your support Andrew, glad you are enjoying the adventures so much :)

I thought the same thing

Thinking the same thing, I go up to the cape many times a year, and always thought of that.... I live in CT....but, grew up in RI...
I"m a Cape Cod native and I think this amazing ,, its a busy rotary Lots of people take photos there!
Thanks William, you can certainly understand how busy it is as a native!! At one point I had to wait a full 4-5 minutes to cross hahaha. I did see a couple people taking photos there... this rotary definitely makes for a unique and memorable introduction to the Cape!
No they don't lol I've lived here my whole life I've never seen anyone actually inside the Rotary
dying over here. as a life long mass local. i can not believe your pulling this off. so funny. haha

Loved the Camping with Steve shout out. I think were all Steve Wallis fans! Love your content yo!
He is a real pioneer... thankful to him for inspiring a movement of stealth and guerilla camping!
Agreed. Gotta tip your hat to Steve! This video was cool.

It's true.. Steve was my addiction for the past 3 years since my daughter was born and with your new channel, I'm a big fan 👍🏼👍🏼
Steve's video was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thumbnail. He's iconic
Steve is a literal legend.

It's funny watching someone camping in a roundabout which I drive around every day.
same bro LMFAOOAOAOA
@@PaulAthanasiou he’s lucky he didn’t do it weeks prior when they were doing the painting LMAO
ummm if you're local you wouldn't call it a roundabout.... its a rotary.
@@lisabrennan420 Was just about to type the same thing. NOBODY here calls it a roundabout. Even the Irishman across the street who moved here from Ireland three years ago calls them rotaries.
Same! Though I take Sagamore on way to work and Bourne on way home.
One of these times Steve will be there.
Hey man, any Pine sap can be easly removed. Cover sap part with one news paper and iron it. It should stick to paper that way. Greetings from Slovenia.
Great advice!👍
handsanitizer works too!
Also, then the newspaper impregnated with pine sap will make a great firestarter...
Great advice Miha, I will be giving this a try! Thank you 🇺🇸🍻🇸🇮

Thanks for watching :) I appreciate the tip!! 🙏
Getting our Camping With Steve on
This isnt just camping. It is history, food, fun, and beardy goodness in one video.
I'm a Cape Cod native too! We always call it a rotary never a roundabout. There is another the Orleans Rotary that is pretty stealthy as well.
I grew up on the Cape and drove past this a million times. Hope you enjoyed your visit!
Now you know of a new camping spot hahaha 😉 Seems like a sweet place to spend your childhood, although you gotta be tough during the winter!! ❄️ I spent a couple weeks on the Cape and it was fantastic! Thanks for watching bro
@@WesWherevermy mom used to do this as a kid haha!!
@@WesWherever When you're a kid here the winters are awesome, though it doesn't snow around here as much as it used to.
Thanks to all who stealth camp.
Educational and a public service.
Stealth camping helps us learn what is possible!!
Wes! You are rocking this!! ❤ 😀 Thank you for honoring Steve Wallis too! I have been following him for years. I love how you include the history of the area and species names of animals. Your photography skills are mastered. Stay safe! 🙏 I look forward to your next adventure!❤
Hey again Suzanne, hope you are well!! Thanks for your kind words, glad you enjoyed this one 😊
I agree. Its great that you give credit to Steve for inspiring you etc. Its a lot more awesome than trying make like you never heard of him while everyone can tell its like his vids. Very honourable! And of course awesome vids from start to finish.
As a Cape Codder, I salute you. And rotary is the only acceptable term. Lol
We all joke about Steve and how he's more paranoid than Batman and on the FBI's most wanted list. But seriously. It's amazing how easy Steve makes it look and when others try it, they get caught or draw unwanted attention
True, no one can stealth camp quite like Steve!! 💪💪
You're giving it a pretty damn good go!@@WesWherever
he's Canadian
@@RMJ1984 Dead right, Steve is the best. When it looks easy, you know it isn't.
And they have become copy cats off of his adventures.
I have lived in Massachusetts my entire 4 decades and will forever think of you when I go around this rotary now.
That's leaving a mark 😁❤
Love the Cape. Back in the day we could go pick wild blue berries at the powerlines but I don't think that is possible anymore. Life back in the 80s and 90s on the Cape was amazing.
I actually got to forage some blackberries at Buzzards Bay Park, was surprised to find so many there!
The electric company sprays them and they aren't safe for consumption. I got chemical exposure from foraging there.
The power lines are sprayed... Just to clarify
My childhood is filled with great memories on the Cape. Great video. And Steve is a legend.
This is awesome. So glad it came up in my RUclips feed. I’ve lived on the cape for 60 years.
I live in Bourne. There are always cops all over Bourne during tourist season. Most of them know me and leave me alone but when I first moved here they stopped me all the time for silly things seemingly just to see what I was up to, they're definitely a bit nosy here but I haven't had any actual issues with any of them.
Yeah I ended up seeing so many all around Bourne... I guess it's better to have too many police than not enough!
Well THAT raised my blood pressure! 😮 Very slick interaction with the cop. Glad you were ready with that “I’m making a documentary…” speech! Something tells me you’re gonna be needing that one again in the future! 😂 And nice shoutout to Steve. Can’t wait to see other adventures he’s inspired in you!
Thanks Bridget, I was really wondering if this one would work out... I'm thankful it did!! 🙏 I will have to keep that speech on hand, haha. Or maybe that I'm a birdwatcher - I learned that one from Steve! 😂 Thanks again for your support, glad you have been enjoying the adventures!!
The trick is to just walk out onto the roundabout and into the bushes in one "determined" move. When you move with purpose nobody gets suspicious and you would have made it the first shot in daylight. Walking around the thing half the day with all your cameras calls attention to yourself. Also, get a high vis traffic vest. Nobody questions people wearing a vest. Seems counter intuitive but it works.
Was just in Cape Cod, drove right by that rotary. Discovered the New England Lobster Roll in a quaint old restaurant in Woods Hole. Your video is making me hungry! What amazing adventures you have! Keep em coming and stay safe!
The yearn for cool forts never dies...

So funny. Eating lobster in a bush, ducking the cops, the shout out to Steve... Subscribed.
I’ve never thought of this as a vacation option. I’ll have to run this by my wife.
Those cops were waiting for you dude! I'm glad you pressed on and got it done, another Excellent Adventure! 🙂
Hahaha yeah, thankfully it worked out!! Glad you two enjoyed 😊
This is and always will be home. I mom lives about 5 miles away from this rotary, in fact she told me to watch this. This made my heart smile. The canal is hands down my favorite place on earth. I hope you indulged in some Lobstah while you were there.
I read this as he was making a lobstah roll lol.
CT resident here and Troopers up in Mass are on point, eyes wide open. It’s like night and day when I cross the state border.
Man, I loved this episode of camping with Steve. I'm a Massachusetts native, so seeing you do this at that rotary that I've driven on dozens of times is so cool!
Nice shout out for Steve! He's my favorite you-tuber but you're rising up the list!

There’s 2 so close! Bourne scenic on the mainland side of bridge and Bay view after the bridge
Camp grounds are expensive! Roundabouts are free 😂
@@CaptivatingVisualsMedia right?! 😆 I would sleep in the rotary over campground any day lmao
You go for a month and due 18 stealth jobs
THATS CLOSE TO $900 !!
I have an office 5 minutes down the street - this is savage, especially with the state police station where it is...had me rolling lol
i love seeing other people trying to camp in roundabouts 👏🏼✨
You and Steve should do a stealth vlog together, I think that would pretty damn cool 😊
I’m curious if the first cruiser had his eye on you, you blend in really well as a tourist/blogger more than someone intending to camp
I really thought he was... he might have been the one to call it in to state police 🤔
@@WesWherever Police often say they got some calls, whether they actually did or not.
@@WesWhereveryou can see a Bourne PD car leaving the barracks as the statie is talking to you😂😂 he definitely went over and told on you

Nice homage to the always great Steve Wallis! Can't wait to see what you're up to next.
Lobstah in New England hits different! The further up the coast you go… the better they get! Have some in Maine! And if you can go down east and see!
Colder water = happier lobster.
Keep hunkering down my friend! Steve is such a breeze of fresh air in this superficial world and you are also one of that kind. More than thrilled for the next episodes. Seems like many more to come!

Yah dude, that was wicked awesome. Seriously, glad I found you on a local news story. Stay safe!

nice touch with the keyboard clicking while skiddadling over the road
6:50 I’m almost positive that was me with the bright lights😂 I drive through there every night otw home
I grew up there in Bourne. My buddy did the landscaping on the rotary. I think it's funny as hell you camped the night there. Great stuff.
Ah, yes. The bright orange stealth sleeping bag. Straight from the school of camping with Steve. 👍

Believe this is an urban legend throughout New England. Used to believe this myself but dug a little deeper into it and no one is able to find substantial evidence to support this.
The roundabout. Every stealthers holy grail. Good job

Helpful hint removing pine sap.... use hand sanitizer. Rub it in and you will be able to lift it off. It's the alcohol in it but the viscosity helps to sit on the sap to soften it. Good luck!
Love your channel!
Thanks Michelle, yeah I'm glad it ended up working out!! I will give hand sanitizer/rubbing alcohol a try, thank you for the tip! 🙏
Wow dude. Amazing. God bless. Love it when you’re in NYC.
Many years ago the inmates in New England County Jails were fed Lobster because it was so cheap.
I just got back from going up to the Redwoods and then over to Mount Shasta and Mount Lassen. In the Avenue of the Giants I used to camp on the sly in the South Fork area of Humboldt County. It is private property owned by the big Timber Company. We found several hiding places. I loved doing that. The old NWP railroad ran through there and the track is still there. I am a Rail Fan. There are several tunnels which might be good for Stealth Camping. The train has not run for over 20 years. There are some disused Rolling Stock all along where the railroad went. It was shut down suddenly. There is a lot of railroad cars near Scotia, CA. Some call it the Ghost Train.
Near the north side of Mount Shasta is a Veterans Memorial near Highway 97, north of Weed, CA. I slept in among the displays to honor Americas Veterans.
Further east and south toward Mount Lassen are a few Snow Cabins for Snowmobiles and such. There are fairly abandoned during the summer. I slept by one last night called Deer Mountain to the south of State Highway 97. I really loved the stars.
Some of this is fairly Stealthy and some is just totally legit Dispersed Camping.
I love Steve Wallis too. Also live about 20 minutes from this rotary. After watching his episode I literally said "Wow, it'd be freakin' crazy if someone camped in the Sandwich Cape Cod rotary!" and here we are! You just got yourself a new follower! Cool shit bro!
That's Bourne dude.
Bourne Rotary
You're not a true masshole until you consume a lobsta roll in the Cape Cod Rotary!!!
Pretty epic locations so far. Excited to see the rest of this long road trip
In a car detail shop, we would always use rubbing alcohol for tree sap, or lacquer thinner, but I doubt you'd wanna use thinner on your clothes. If you use rubbing alcohol, use 99%, and then rinse really good in cold water before you throw in washing machine.....
Turpentine removes pine sap
Sleeping in a roundabout. Good one 👍
To remove sap, use "Skin so Soft". I swear on all things holy, it helped me so much growing up, I loved climbing trees. That stuff removes it from skin or clothes like it's nothing.
Hahaha amazing! I was one of the people that called the police on you. That rotary is wicked dangerous and I was like there’s a tourist that’s going to get himself hit! Glad the statie didn’t give you any trouble and that you had a safe night.
Mind your business next time
Olive oil and paper towel quickly takes sap off of anything. I use it constantly on my dogs. Cool video in a place I know very well!
Used that once plus Dawn when in middle school I accidentally sat on a pine tree stump while waiting to be picked up. Still remember it all these years later XD
Man, 86k views and only 2.9k likes. What's wrong with people nowadays? Is it so difficult to hit that button? Wes is taking you on a camping places you either would never go yourself or could never get. Good job Wes. Pls continue doing it for the minority of us. Stay safe.
Glad you are enjoying the adventures!! I really appreciate your support. I will keep it up and stay safe :)
It’s a lot of work to make a video like this one, and I don’t understand why more people who take the time to watch the video don’t give it a thumbs up. Right now it is over 23K views and only 3.6K likes.
He's like a hiking Mr. Rodgers. Such a nice guy! Love the vids. New Sub here
😂oh this is awesome!! Lobster roll and Cajun fries! Perfect. So fun. Loved this video.
Thanks Martha, glad you enjoyed this one :)
Just removed pine sap from a camping trip with goo gone. It worked well but I think paint thinner would have also worked. Great video. Thanks.
Steve would be proud, love the video, where did Ma sleep ? Haha
Thanks Kyle, her & Preston were close by :)
Reminds me when me and a friend camped in a 10 foot fishing boat that was a decoration in a roundabout in a Swedish equivalent to Cape Cod, Åhus, back in the 90s…
I really like this one.
Glad you enjoyed this one :)
arguably the most famous rotary in a state known for its rotaries. legendary work
Hi Wes, really enjoying your channel! if you like roundabouts you should come visit the UK we have over 26,000 of them here!!
Thanks David, glad you are enjoying the adventures! I definitely want to get out there sometime... already have some ideas in mind!! 🇬🇧🏕️
This is the first time I've ever watched a stealth camping video and been like, "I know that place!" because I've driven that rotary many, many times.
That "Dunkin'" 😐 used to be a Bob's Big Boy. Thanks for stopping by 'ol Cape Cod! 😘 😆
Yup on my Way home from island always stop there to buy my 3lbs coffee ☕️ for $19:99
It used to be an IHOP
Your videos are so much fun to watch!
first comment. you rock wes!
Awesome
Holy crap, I would like to have died when the cop pulled up. You like covered yourself in butter and jumped into a lions den with all those police. You're the GOAT.
Also, I agree Steve's round about was the best (and the first video I saw of his) love him.
Also, when you're done on this trip, head to SoCal dude.
@davidmurray6387 You're fast!! Thanks, David :)
@AndrewMcAtee Hahaha yeah I was just trying to stay calm, thankfully everything went okay 🙏 I stay up in the Bay, but I will definitely head down to SoCal for some fun at some point. I do hope to take another road trip in the fall, so maybe then! Really appreciate your support Andrew, glad you are enjoying the adventures so much :)
