Wonderful tribute to your uncle, may he rest in peace.... Brian, it's because of you and your videos that me & Julie made a life changing decision, we were living in Nashville, working in the music industry, had good jobs with great pay and benefits and working towards are retirement. The Nashville music scene has changed drastically in the last 10 years and if you didn't embrace those changes, you were left on the outside looking in, so we decided it was time for a change, we both are outdoor people that love to travel and chase warm weather, so we sold our home and rental properties, and bought a Chevy Van and with some help of some friends we built it out in one week. Two weeks later we hit the road with no destination except warm weather, our first year on the road we stayed in Arizona the whole time and loved it, the second year we traveled quite a bit in Florida, when we arrived in the Florida Keys, something sparked, it's like we knew this is where we belong. Julie and I are avid sailors and have owned several small sailboats along the way. We decided a live aboard sailboat would fit our needs perfectly and 4 days later we found a 41 foot boat in excellent shape and the rest is history....
My condolences on your loss. "We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time". Literally words to live by. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Brain, I offer my condolences in the loss of your Uncle. May God grant you and your family peace in this time of grief. Your RUclips subscribers love you, man. Hang in there, we are rooting for you!
I was going to say something that I thought was wise and thoughtful but you and Uncle Tom got there first. Happy Thanksgiving Brian and rest in peace Tom.

"Not here for a long time. Here for a good time." Excellent motto. Peace to your Uncle Tom. We all need heroes like him in our lives. Glad he was there for you.
Great looking steaks! Thanks for the campfire this morning and Happy Thanksgiving to you, Brian!!!! So sorry to hear about the passing of your Uncle. Peace to you and yours.
Such a great tribute not only to your uncle but to your life’s choice of living in the road about a year ago I chose to live out of my car not for necessity but to experience the freedom it allows. Safe travels my friend.
Thank you Brian for the gift of this special video. What a beautiful tribute to your beloved Uncle on such an appropriate day.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING BRIAN. Your Uncle is now flying high Watching over you. He is no longer in pain. I’m sure he is loving seeing what you are doing & seeing all the sights you are having fun doing.. GOD BLESS FROM WEST CENTRAL INDIANA FARMLAND ✝️🇺🇸😊🦃🚜
Well I am sure your Uncle was as thankful for your company as you were of his. Giving thanks for what we experience in life is what makes us human. Great video Brian and a huge Happy Thanksgiving to both you and Kelly.
I agree your uncle was so pleased to have you visit with him maybe more than you know. Theses are the special blessings in our lives. I’m sorry for your loss Brian and this vlog was a beautiful gift to your uncle. ♥️

RIP Uncle Tom. Sounds like a wonderful guy who lived a wonderful, all be it cumbersome life. And here's to you Brian for filling my weeks with these wonderful videos. Happy Thanksgiving Brian.
Hey Brian..sorry to hear of the passing of your uncle. Glad he was able to pass his positive attitude about life on to you. Life is what we make of it..we all have much to be thankful for ! 😁👍🙏✌️
Brian, I am a 69 yr old grandmother from Pennsylvania who has been enjoying your channel for quite a while now. And I do remember your visit to your Uncle Tom. Hugs to you and your family. I enjoy traveling along with you on all your travels. And it's always nice to see Kelly too! Your laid back style brings me peace and you have the kindest eyes!
EXCELLENT tribute! I to have been trying to get on the road for 2 years fulltime. but have been plowed under with health issues detaining me here in the city. I WILL GET THERE! Thanks for the reminder of being thankful and living in the moment!
As we sat around the table today, after enjoying our thanksgiving meal, we reminisced of Tom. I commented on how much of a hero he was. How he always had a positive outlook on life. Hearing you say the same thing made me smile. He was a good man for more reasons than I could put to words. Normally he would have joined us today and you know.... he was there in spirit. Without a doubt. Thank you for a wonderful tribute to him.
Thank you so much for sharing your life and experiences with us. So very sorry for your Uncles passing. Seeing you from coast to coast and time with family and friends reaffirms your choices. I sold my NoCal home of 38 years in 2015 and moved into a class c... never regretted it... covid knocked me off the road as most fed and state volunteer positions disappeared. I've since built a small house as a home base and pray for the difficult times and prices will change and getting back on the road in the future. Our lives have been changed by self serving subhumans who are only searching for their own interests. I have no good wishes for their kind and pray we the people can see the light and turn around the direction our country is going. Sorry for the rant. Safe travels dear Brian.
My prayers go out for you and your family as you grieve for the loss of your loved one. May you carry his good memory in your heart until the time comes to when you see one another again.
Condolences Brian on your Uncle’s passing. Despite his challenges in later years that we will all face, sounds like he had an amazing attitude and amazing life.

Our condolences Brian, your tribute to your Uncle Tom was obviously straight from your heart and beautiful. We have been following you for years now, just don’t comment much as life is busy these days, but felt it necessary to comment today. Your Uncle Tom’s “words to live by’ are amazing and we couldn’t agree more! We have been enjoying all of your adventures over the years and will soon be joining you in the full time RV life next year. Finally retired! Hope to see you on the road and maybe have the honor of shaking your hand some day. Keep up the great videos and your amazing attitude toward life! Respectfully, Tom and Sarah
I know you have helped me in just watching what you do different places you travel to and so many things you have shared thank you and sorry for your loss.
