  • Adventured to and explored Chassahowitzka River Campground in my 2023 Forest River Flagstaff E-Pro 15TB. I go through the hook up process at the campsite, cook up some dinner in the trailer, and kayaking with the manatees. It was cold for Florida but still an amazing adventure!

    Have yet to visit this spot. But, to Stephanie and gals like her for taking to the road and doing what they do is very admirable. My kind of gal, for certain. Travel well and be safe. RH/Leesburg, Florida

    Such a leisurely camping video. Camp cooking in cast iron is the best. My choice is a Dutch oven when my plan is just hanging around camp. One item I want to add to my supplies is something to lay over the slinky hose end just a precaution so doesn’t pop up. Great idea the electric blanket, my furnace is a roaring noise when it runs. Fuel mileage bring ping your Free Spirit along compared with two motel nights. Yup I will pay the gas. Thanks for sharing your adventure.

    That’s exactly what I have done with mine too. A bed, a couch and plenty of room to walk. I do think a lagoon table would be great. I know the newer model 2024, has one. But all in all, it’s perfect for one! And do able for 2!

    I live about a mile from the Chassahowitzka River Campground. It is a beautiful river and the only one around that has not been ruined by people building on it. I saw you pulling onto the road to the campground. Hope you had fun. Unfortunately the weather is going to be below freezing Sat/Sunday. Have fun!! If you need directions, tips , or info about the area let me know. I have lived here 30 years so I can probably help you out.

    How do manatees breathe when they're SLEEPING?? Anyway, just found your channel. Nicely done! Shooting, editing, etc. isn't always easy, but you pulled it all together. Great job Stephanie. GO girl! 😊

    • @lifewithstephanie42
      @lifewithstephanie42  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you so much for your feedback! The manatees float to the surface and get a breathe every now and then when they need a breathe, I guess you can call it “sleep swimming” lol

    I'm a little jealous. Your season is starting while I'm up here sitting in snow. Since you don't pets or kids, get an ebike to stroll around in. Mine has added a whole new dimension to my camping. Lectric has nice cheap and good bikes. I put mine in the camper along side the bed to store and travel. What time were you on the water for the manatees to still be sleeping?

    Cast Iron is awesome. I clean my pans with salt. I thought maybe you were going to pick the Monk fish. It tastes very similar to Lobster. Looks like you had a great time.

    Hey Stephanie, assuming you have the same Westlake tires on your camper as I have on my 2023 E-Pro 15tb, they are not rated for anything over 60mph. So, if you are traveling an average 65-70 you are really stressing those tires. Double check the tire temp with your TPMS at those speeds and then at 60mph.

    • @lifewithstephanie42
      @lifewithstephanie42  5 месяцев назад

      Ok thank you for the information! I’ll try and keep it at 60 MPH, I definitely don’t want to stress my tires

    You might have covered this in a previous video but can you comment on your sleeping arrangement. I see you're eating with the bed behind you. I was considering a 15 TB and to make a dedicated one person bed up against the back with still leaving a little bit of room to sit down. Maybe I'd install a lagoon table instead of what they provide. Do you think there's enough room for this?

    • @lifewithstephanie42
      @lifewithstephanie42  5 месяцев назад +2

      The table that it came with took up too much room and wasn’t very high to fit my legs under. So I took it out. I put both sides of the cushions down to make a king bed at one point, but I like having the area in the middle to walk around. So I now have one side for sleeping the middle for moving around and the other side for couch sitting. I ordered 2 bed tray tables on Amazon to use for eating but for now I just sit on the bed and use that counter top as a table to eat. It’s all about making the area best for you. I’m sure there’s enough room to make it into whatever you want for sure!

      @@lifewithstephanie42 That's a great idea! I traveled across the country last year with a truck camper and it was a blast. I'm considering moving to a trailer but wanted to keep it small so that it's easy to tow around. I think I might get the 15TB. If I could survive a tiny truck for 8 weeks I think the 15 should be plenty big enough.
      I really enjoy your videos by the way so keep them going 🙂

    Hueguenot is a nice camp ground on the Atlantic in Jacksonville but I would avoid Talbots Island campground. Too many shady characters and it is tight to move a camper around in.

      A great place to get a draft beer and appitizer is the Sand Dollar just South of Huguenot. There is an old plantation to visit (no camper in tow) too. Lots of beach to walk or drive on. watch the tide though. There are also creeks to kayak. Further South is St. Augustine. Looks like they have a pretty nice camp ground. Federal parks are about 1/2 the price with no sewer hook up. You will need to buy yourself a Rhino portable waste tank to dump at the dump station as needed. I would get the mid size one (18 to 22 gal. max) - waste water gets heavy. Navy shower when possible.
