“I Have Georgia On My Mind” nice place to live or visit
TheI82much yea it sure is nice there
A perfect start to a Sunday morning , coffee and a new Traveling Robert video !!!
everyday! (hot herbal tea for me tho :) )
This place has the best bike trails we have ever encountered. We spent 3 nights on Jykell Island, and never had to un hook the toad. Explored the entire island by bike.
Awesome vid. We live in Georgia and love the North Georgia Mountains!
I love Georgia
You should be a narrator for documentaries you have a great voice!
Thank you
You do remind of Antonio Banderas with your accent
Robert we started watching you about 1.5 years ago. And so appreciate you. You are a friend that we will never meet.
I hope that makes sense.
I moved from Tennessee to Los Angeles twenty years ago. And watching you reminds me of my earlier life over there. Thanks for what you do.
We checked out Jekyll Island a few years back... it's better in April! The ocean here is NOTHING like beautiful Delray/Boca area. Sooo shallow and a bit muddy looking.
I remember a nice fishing pier... but windy.
As usual... thank you for taking us along here with you. 🌅🌁⛵🛣
You're welcome
That sounds like the ocean town near Savannah-My favorite place in the country to visit.
Jekyll Island is probably my favorite beach area on the Atlantic. When we stayed there overnight, my son and niece were with us about age 10. There was a ranger guided tour at night looking for hatching sea turtles that was very interesting.
Vogel state park is one of my favorites....😍
Mine too. Loo for that video in about two weeks
My home town of Golden Isles (Brunswick GA - St Simons island - Sea Island - Jekyll island) cool 😎
Robert it you ever come back to North GA Mtns post a notice ahead of time. We can meet up, I have a MicroMinnie 2106FBS. Missed you in Blairsville by about 2 hours! We stayed at the North GA Fairgrounds & Campground lakefront on Lake Chatuge in Hiawassee on Thanksgiving, it was GLORIOUS. Nice campground with great lake & mtn views, very reasonable too!
Next time you are in north Georgia come to Fort Mountain State Park!
I go to SE Georgia every year with my husband. He was born in Brunswick and his family lives in Jesup. We stayed on Jekyll Island this year. Was wonderful! You should totally have went to Savannah. We walked the city for 4hrs on a gorgeous day. There was so much to see.
new Traveling Robert
video ... yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!
After attending college in Miami, I went to Kennesaw college to conclude, and lived in Marietta, it is a beautiful area.
We love living in kennesaw! Leaving dirty new Jersey 10 years ago was the best decision we ever made!
I saw a bridal fashion shoot on Driftwood Beach in a magazine. Very otherworldly photos.
We didn't get a fair shot in Ellijay. We have some of the best property in the Mountains, for sure. Our downtown is great.The best food is not where you ate. Since Cantaberry moved, to their new building, not great anymore. The River Street Tavern is the best!! And, you would have loved the Ellijay Coffeehouse! Oh. my. Coffee has never been so good. This is a small mountain town with a big heart. Not boring and empty, if you know where and when to be there. In the Fall and winter, around Christmas time, there is much going on and much to see and do. Give us another chance. You'll be glad you did.
Oh wow you was 2 lights away from my house at Walmart....So glad you came to visit my home town!!
Great video of some travels in Georgia. Thank you!!
Have a good day Robert ✌
Another great video. Thank you Robert and Merry Christmas...
Welcome to GA. Hope you are having fun.
Nice video Robert. Keep them coming. We surely enjoy them. We plan our trips after seeing some of your videos.
Robert, as a 15yr delivery driver. Don’t put google on in parking spaces. It will get confused. Wait till you are straight with the light and it will then tell you left or right. Good Luck!😁👍🏻🇺🇸🇨🇺🇪🇸
I like it when you show two camera views, one inside and the other behind the truck. You should do more of that!
Another great video!! The mountains in the northern part of Georgia are on my radar to visit, in the foreseeable future!!
Hi, Robert 👍🏻👍🏻 I enjoyed watching your video, beautiful scenery along the way and amazing views while you were flying the drone. I will be looking forward to seeing your next adventure. Enjoy and have a Great week !!! Danny
I just found your videos. My husband and I are planning going to Georgia. We truly enjoyed your videos which are full of great and useful information. God bless you and guide you on the road.
Another good one Thanks so much.
I do enjoy your videos. They are beautifully edited to make me feel as if i am there with you! The drone footage!!!!! Stunning!! You have inspired me to start driving more. America is a beautiful place!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
At 6:29......”Here Lingering in front of the ocean, hearing the soothing sounds of the waves 🌊 crashing “.Lol
Robert , I really think you should do audiobooks, but “ let us continue” ...
You went right buy my house when you crossed the Dames Point bridge. I love camping at Jekyll island. Seeing random deer just standing around
I found this very amusing,
that at 22:30 you seem to be lamenting the low 10 - 12 MPG
and then at 23:10,
(VROOOM!) it's time to floor it! (VROOOM, VROOOOOM, VROOOOOOM!) LOL!
No choice merging onto an interstate...
Ice Ice baby....you had me cracking up there at the end!! Lol !! Wonderful video....
Omg, I live in Baxley, but I never thought he would actually stop there! Lol made me so happy. You're welcome back any time
Thanks for this visit to rural Georgia. I am having my hot Appleglühwein to fight a persistent cough and cold in wintry Germany. In my area we prepare it with some cinnamon, clove, lemon and sugar - all as much as you like. No other medication needed :-).
Last Time we went to Jekyll Island we got hung up by some low branches near the airport. Had to back up a long way !
I didn't even know about jeckyl Island. Very cool .thanks Robert.
Too bad you didn't go into Faith Chapel at 15:13. There is an original Tiffany stained glass window signed by Tiffany himself, one of the few left in the world. The window can be seen at the front if the church to the left of the front door. It is huge and absolutely beautiful.
Didn't know about that. Maybe next time I'll visit
Thx for sharing, the videos are amazing. I wish I could visit these places too
next time when you go north on i-95 in georgia you should really see st simons island
i agree!! I was there in Nov last year not long after hurriane came thru
Another fabulous video, thank you Robert!
Thank you!
Great video..... I live right down the Road from Jekyll Island in Beautiful Darien Ga! Next time stop by Darien!
Another great video, loved it!
Thank you!
Wonderful video. Years ago I traveled from Florida to South Carolina on a work assignment and passed the Jekyll Island and Brunswick area, but didn't have a chance to check it out. I'll have to visit.
Thank you!
Oh boy, Jekyll Island is so pricey but beautiful, I missed the fallen trees beach. It looked out of place compared to the other places in it with all the old homes and plantations.
Wonderful video Robert
Great job! I have being around some of those places you show on this video, but under working or other circumstances. I like that you where able to enjoy and have a different approach than what I did at the time..I am from Dalton, Ga. keep sharing. Saludos!!!!
I just love your traveling videos. Very well done.
Thank you!
That was a shrimp boat out on the horizon : )
Cool, thank you
Just stumbled across your videos. Love them. Blue Ridge, Ga is my hometown. There's also a Cantaberry in downtown Blue Ridge, just in case you need to know for your next visit. When I was younger, I spent many summers tubing down the Toccoa on Aska. Many jumps into those rapids. Getting too old for those kind of jumps into rapids. Hope you enjoyed your visit
I just love the south. ❤
Ice ice baby ...love the video! You dont see much ice down your way. You should send a winter in Ohio. One day it will be 60 and the next day 6 inches of snow!
Thanks Robert! Great video, as always!
Thank you
Thanks Robert another great video.
Robert there are some nice RV lot resorts up there where you purchase the RV lot and they have nice amenities.
Nice job Robert.
Thank you
The railway in Blue Ridge is well worth the time… we did the train ride last year … well worth time and money…
Hola Robert,my husband start watching your videos too. He like the music,on the videos,he said is sodding and relaxing.
Thank you!
Excellent video quality
Thank you!
Thank you sir !
You stayed at my Walmart in Brunswick...well it ought to be mine as I spend enough money and time there!! Driftwood beach has Totally changed since Hurricane Irma last year. I'm planning to take the time to drive over to it on Christmas Day. January 1 starts the annual hunt for glass fishing floats. One is placed everyday from Jan 1 to Feb 28th. Maybe you could stop back!! Safe travels and thanks for the vids.
Great video
I enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you!
Also I saw you made it to Cahokia. You go so many places. It's impressive. Few have seen how much you have seen . I even saw you went to Finland a few years back. I am half lebanese and half Finnish and I am gonna definitely have to check out that Finland video.
Keep rocking that road man 💜🌈✨️
Hace poco que descubrí tu canal Robert y estoy admirado por la calidad de tus excepcionales videos, muy bien filmados y con los comentarios justos. Obviamente ya me he suscrito, felicitaciones amigo viajero!
Gracias
Advertising executives should call you for voice work.
nice video,,,thanks for sharing
I have visited summer waves, many times, it is a nice relaxing water park, not to touristy, like the ones in Orlando
Actually, in addition to your observance, those trees are the majestic River Oaks, you love covered with Spanish moss, are plagued with shallow root systems. Wind, nor’easters, tropical storms just wreak havoc with those once beautiful oaks.
Faith Chapel is a must see. It has two Tiffany stained glass windows; one reflects sunrise, the other sunset. I don’t believe they charge anymore but ask for a donation by a discreet box. The volunteer gives you great information on the interior very much “hunting camp” carvings (boars etc). Ille would love a silk scarf of those windows sold in Museum (barn area) by Sea Turtle Rescue behind the chapel (very cool exhibits and surgery center).
Just saw this... Glad to see you visit my home town (Brunswick / Jekyll Island). One thing, Google maps calls all the streams around here "Fancy Bluff Creek". The Lanier Bridge actually crosses the South Brunswick River. The drone footage really shows the damage Irma did. I think the best times to visit are the Spring and Fall
Be sure to eat at the Driftwood Bistro.Awesome food.
On the road again! :-)
Hey Robert Mark happy holiday happy New Year to you and family I enjoyed the video into Georgia and knows trees unbelievable I'm not sure if something washed up on the coast and took those trees out but that's kind of funky and scary that boat to sort out there in the distance look like a huge I don't know Shrimp Boat with huge Nets on the side well I'm going to enjoy the rest of the video hope you're well and the chameleon is too great name for the truck really like it keep up the good work Robert StayWell down here in South Carolina visiting and Conway Myrtle Beach heading back to New York during the New Year 73 that means best regards and ham radio take care
I just looked it up. Jeckyl island like Cahokia has some weird alleged history. Very cool 😎 👌
I think you were here around the middle of November. We wish we had known you were coming. We have lived here for almost 30 years and have a property on the north end of Lake Lanier with room for your rig had you wanted to stay here as a base for exploration. We also know the area well and could have taken you to our favorite waterfalls for example. Check out the last 2 videos on our channel for some great views of the Blue Ridge mountains and give us a heads up if you're passing through again :-) Enjoyed your comprehensive tour of Jekyll Island.
Yes, this was about a month ago. Maybe next time we can meet up
thx for video!
You're welcome
I'm really loven' your videos. Your living my dream.
Thanks!
That tree cemetery was beyond creepy
Great video. Beautiful places. Congrats.....>>>
Hola Rob, mi esposo y yo miramos sus videos siempre, nosotros somos de Brunswick Ga y vimos q estuvo en esta área. Déjenos saber cuando está por aquí otra ves para encontrarnos y conocerlo en persona.
Loved your video! Northwest Georgia is my favorite place to visit! 😄 Coosawattee River Resort in Ellijay has beautiful rv sites that back up to the river. There's lots of wildlife and it's pretty close to Mercier Orchard in Blue Ridge. They've got the best apple cider I've ever tasted (and apple cider donuts)! Where are you off to next?
I will check out that Coosawattee River Resort for next time. Next: Amicalola Falls, Brasstown Bald, Huntsville, AL....
I wish i had know I am in Brunswick, Ga, just found your channel today...when you come this way again let's have a cup of coffee ..be happy :-) In the distance was a shrimp Boat, lots of shrimping is done here.
That would be great. Thanks!
I lived near Actworth in the 80’s and the early 90’s …
Nice vid once again. Charmeleon is a nice name but then written as Carmeleon. ;-)
When I was traveling with my children they would have etched their names in the frost on the windshield. Maybe the Frost ghostwriter will etch in "Traveling Robert". :-) :-o
Another interesting travel adventure. The Drone videos are awesome and it would be nice if you would tell us how high they are flying to get those views.
Legally I can only fly 400 feet off the ground.
Thank you.
Please let me know when u do Saint simons Island :)
Looks like I missed you by a day in Blue Ridge
Maybe next time
I prefer St. Simon's Island but Jekyll is nice. My brother lives in Brunswick and owns what is likely one of the last video rental stores left on the planet.His son owns a popular bar, also located in Brunswick called Moonshiners.
I live in Atlanta Georgia
I like Chameleon, great choice!
Your google based wanda, needs fine tuning lol.
I dont miss Atlanta traffic at all
I thought Walmart was going to stop overnight RV parking.. btw, the green mountains in Georgia are really beautiful are you going to buy some land there? ; )
I’m a Jekyl Island cop and I’m gonna hunt you down and collect the $4 (plus interest) that you owe Georgia!
Lol!
Hilarious but it's not a Georgia fee.
robert-come to Macon i will give you the 4.00 plus interest!!!!!!I I love our georgia barrier islands!!!!!!!
not a bad price for free publicity of ga state's tourist attractions:our barrier islands and coastal towns and our beautiful north ga mountains!thanks robert!!!!
I am a recently retired FL. Trooper and I would think different.
Gooooood morning Robert. Thank you for the new video. Check your PO Box later this week...after Tuesday...if you get a chance. Have a great day. Fly pelican fly!
Hey Scot... went by the PO BOX today. Thank you so much to you and Ashley for the pelicans and the beautiful Christmas card.
You're welcome! Maybe he can grace your studio Friday night for our chat. Merry Christmas my friend. Thank you for all that you do.
thanks for putting the date. i got lost in Ellijay a year and a half ago, nice little town. what brand is that tonto cover?
You're welcome. Extang Solid Fold 2.0
Hey Robert, were ya able to see the Goodyear cottage at Jekyll? There is a small art gallery there that is pretty cool.
I didn't.
If you stay at the campground you could easily stay a week there between the history, museums, shops and trails. Happy travels!!
The North Georgia mountains are where my ancestors are from… before the long walk to Oklahoma…
Robert ave you ever been to Helen, GA? It looks like you were transformed into an old German Bavarian village. Worth a visit.
Didn't like Helen when I visited last year. Too crowded and the people are rude.
@@TravelingRobert thanks for the heads up. Was going to there. Not anymore. The places in the mountains you showed are cool. And close to beat the summer heat in Florida
Thank you so much for your amazing video clip. You look like a professional cameraman. So, could you tell me which camera's name and model you used, and dash cam as well. Thanks advanced.
Sony AX53 and Sony X3000
