    Hello. Yep, going back in the videos. I hear ya! I used to love rain, thunder storms too but now - living in an RV…. It’s horrifying! Thanks for sharing.

      Yeah. I kinda want to experience a good storm in a house again to see just how deeply this part of RV life has scarred me 😂 -J

      Thanks J! We've had a few adventures in the past year...a couple of them will make it on here, a couple (like getting stuck on Galveston Beach) you can find on instagram. :)

    Exciting. I've had to seek shelter from hurricanes twice with my pets.

      No fun! We lived in Florida for several years and only fled one hurricane. Not a fun experience at all. Unlike tornadoes you get like a full week to worry about it! 😂 -J

    This one caught my attention. I'm in Alabama. Guntersville was one of my many stomping grounds. I camp mostly at Joe Wheeler State Park. March 2023 I was camping at Joe Wheeler and went thru the same thing with Tornadoes. First time for that and it was quite scary. Considering Joe Wheeler had a Tornado rip thru in 2020 I think. Right before the Plandemic hit. Tore up Section B and C. Glad y'all made it through. Take care!

      If it was "right before the pandemic hit" it could have been this storm system. This was literally when we all thought 2 weeks to slow the spread meant 14 days. -J

      @OpenRoading It was December 16, 2019, when JWSP got taken out. We have so many tornados I can't keep up. Lol

      From my limited experience with your state...I can attest that is a very VERY true statement. 😂 🌪

    Yay! Welcome back on the air. I’m very glad to see you’re back at this. If you’re still in northern Indiana, send me a PM and I’ll be get back in touch and I just get to know you both a little bit. I’ve so enjoyed the videos and I read I watched actually all of them up to this one and through this one. You scared me, and I’ve been in tornado alley my entire life. After tornado closely miss my parents up in Wisconsin in their Lakehome that they had after they retired, we chose to go to that town for a family union and help clean up for a day. It was sobering and real. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to your next video. If you’re still in northern Indiana, p.m. me and we can get together and I like to get to know Kaylynn too!

      Hi Tacy! It's good to be back on air! We're actually in Arizona now and will be for the remainder of the winter if all goes according to plan. :)

      God is good, both when things go well and when things go bad. If our RV had been torn up and tossed into the lake that day, it would have been OK because He's still good. -J

      MITCH!!!!!!! Likewise. If you find yourself traveling to Phoenix over the next 6 months, look us up! (Like...message me....you won't find us in the phone book or anything). Of course I'll do the same if we end up in Central FL for any reason.

      Either we didn't show it or we didn't do it. Not sure which.
      I do remember the wind not picking up at all until after we left the RV so it's quite possible that I didn't even think about the slides since the toppers weren't making any noise. -J

      If you can find something without the pillows it would probably work better. I’m also not 1000% sure they are effective as we’ve never experienced a storm that would have damaged them as of yet. -J

We just got a good rain last week and it had oh marble size to about ping pong size hail and it out a crack on the corner of our windshield so I’m going to try it next time for sure . Hope you both are being safe at a good spot !!
