Growing up, my family went on a camping trip every summer to eastern WA. We drove out on hwy 2 and stopped in Leavenworth to stretch our legs. We often stopped at the starbucks to use the bathroom.
Boy, you guys can’t catch a break with the heat and electrical issues!!! 🤯 Hope things change for the better soon! Leavenworth looks like a fun town to visit. Looking forward to seeing more from there. 🙂
We've stayed at the Alpine several times it's a beautiful campsite and yeah lots of road noise usually we just walk into Leavenworth but I see you guys are smart and took the truck did you manage to find the dog house Brewery it's kind of a cute little place
Sure glad I have a 10,000 W generator onboard my coach. I just have to make sure I have enough diesel when I park. I just turn on all 3 air conditioners.
We actually have a generator and it can run our A/C but we don't like using it. We will if we are boondocking and it gets too hot but since we were paying for power in Spokane there was no way we'd use it there (unless we couldn't go someplace else). One big thing is we cannot just leave the dogs in the Airstream with the A/C&generator running. So we try to book full hookups when we know it is going to be too hot.
I knew one campground owner who keep spare breakers on hand. He said he can swap out a bad one in 10 mins or less. He would do it without turning off the power because people got upset when they cut off power to a section to replace it, not me.
It went great, thanks for asking! We were even offered another one but the timing wasn't going to work for it. So we'll see what happens in the future.
Steve you make me laugh. My son lives in our condo in Seattle-no central ac but a beautiful rooftop deck overlooking the bay and Sculpture garden. He complains that it is hot all summer too. He does have 2 portable AC units-one in the living room and one in the bedroom and where he works has ac. I laugh. We live in Maryland. Yes we have ac but it is 91 with 95% humidity all day, then at night the bugs come out including the biting gnats. We will have to get out to Leavenworth sometime-since my husband is 3/4 German.
Humid heat is very different that's for sure. Steve lived in VA for a while and Courtney in DC we know what a sweltering summer is like. Yikes! You should definitely try to get to Leavenworth at some point. It's a lot of fun!
On your next Q and A could you tell us anything that wasn’t worth the money for campering ? Not stuff you didn’t need I mean stuff that wasn’t worth the money. Thanks !
The dogs were where-ever we were during the hot parts of the day. Even with A/C we don't trust the power won't go out or breaker flip when we aren't there. So if it's super hot out we stay with them in the Airstream in the A/C.
So... Stayed at that site in April.. Leavenworth is great!! I know a few days old.. Live in western washington.. Love to do a meet up.. Will be camping at lake Eston is about 2 weeks. Not on Instagram or Twitter. If possible, PM me on Facebook!! Would LOVE to do a meet up.. I know this is public,
Leavenworth is awesome! We are in the Sequim area right now and for a little while so if you are not too far away let us know! You can email us at courtney@astreaminlife.com :)
Oops...just noticed you’re over 10k subscribers. Congratulations! 👍😍
YAY! Thanks! We're very excited!
Leavenworth is a fun place but venturing into the Alpine Lakes Wilderness is even better.
I bet! It's a gorgeous area!
I love leavenworth. Such a cute town.
It is a super cute town!

I want so much to get an rv or even build out a sprinter van. i always get so excited when I see rvers near where I live.

We bring the record heat where ever we go apparently. O well!
What a cute town!!
It really is adorable and fun!
Wow, definitely need to go there! I lived in Germany for a bit, it was awesome. This would be an awesome runner up.
You definitely should!
awesome video guys.
Thank you!
Leavenworth looks like such a cool little town. Steve looks a bit steamed though.
It is an awesome town, even in the heat!
We've stayed at the Alpine several times it's a beautiful campsite and yeah lots of road noise usually we just walk into Leavenworth but I see you guys are smart and took the truck did you manage to find the dog house Brewery it's kind of a cute little place
Thanks for the suggestion! We ended up walking in a few times too. Great location for that!
One thing I forgot to mention and I'm sure by now you found out that the dump station is on the wrong side good luck
Steve ,yall need to join the snow birds, they dont put up with that kind of weather. LOL.
Yeah somehow when we move with the weather we still bring record heat.
Reminds me of an Alpine village near us, which is pretty cheesy. Let me know if you visit Helen, GA!
It's definitely a bit touristy but fun! We will!
Sure glad I have a 10,000 W generator onboard my coach. I just have to make sure I have enough diesel when I park. I just turn on all 3 air conditioners.
YES! Awesome! Kinda jealous :)
So, has Leavenworth gotten a bit touristy? Kinda? A little bit maybe? Thanks for taking us along.
O absolutely its touristy but still fun!
Maybe next summer you guys should invest in a generator, just in case you run into power troubles again.

That makes sense!
Saturday Night's King Ludwig's has real Oompa band
Awesome!
How did fishing video gig turn out?
It went great, thanks for asking! We were even offered another one but the timing wasn't going to work for it. So we'll see what happens in the future.
Omg how did you pass all the sweet shops?!
We didn't completely. May have gone in...once or twice ;)

Why Leavenworth? On the way to....?
Heading west to Snohomish, Seattle and then Sequim!
On your next Q and A could you tell us anything that wasn’t worth the money for campering ? Not stuff you didn’t need I mean stuff that wasn’t worth the money. Thanks !
Interesting question! We'll think on that one!
$20 donation if you do your next video with both of you wearing I Pee Outside Tshirts
Hahaha! Love it!
We're the dogs in side in the heat?
The dogs were where-ever we were during the hot parts of the day. Even with A/C we don't trust the power won't go out or breaker flip when we aren't there. So if it's super hot out we stay with them in the Airstream in the A/C.
Oh no, the hat is back.
Haha yup, it's a favorite and when you only own two...gotta do what you gotta do.
About lost my lunch when you were eating your nuts off the bar that’s had who knows what on it.
Ooops! We're not very cautious about germs. It's worked out okay for us so far but it is something we try to pay attention to. Maybe next time.
So...
