This video encapsulates why are my favourite RUclips channel. You are real people, experiencing real life events. Grief, accidents, laughter, things going wrong, everything real.
Thank you @eileensboy 🥰 We'd definitely prefer less grief and accidents, but life doesn't always work like that. We really appreciate you coming all for the ride and supporting us through the highs and lows 🙌
@jeffhampton2767 Not for someone my age. They are young. Have you been here throughout the breakdowns, major engine overhauls, and extensive repairs, unsurmountable aggravations, months of waiting on repairs, and re-repairs?
A single crutch or cane ALWAYS goes in the opposite hand. Not on the same side as the injury. Unless you want to teach yourself to walk abnormally, put more weight than intended on the injured limb and quite possibly cause further injury elsewhere. You don’t swing the same hand and foot at the same time normally, so don’t do it with a crutch. Free professional advice, you’re welcome. 😊
10:47 A cane (or in this case a crutch) is to be used on the opposite side of the injured parts. For example if you step forward with the injured side, match the motion with the cane which is on the opposite side.
Check your floor pan. You may have a break in it if it is not supported by foam under it. It may also be around the drain when you are standing in the shower. If it is a crack, use a product like flex seal in a colour you can live with and don't use it for a couple days.
You guys NEED to drive back down through BC. Maybe cross through either alberta or down through idaho montana wyoming etc. opens you up to some unbelievable adventures in what should hopefully be a really nice fall
Thanks! My wife and I love you guys, so it is only with love that we refer to y'all as "The Endless Misadventure!" Please continue to entertain us with your endless misadventures! We love you guys!
"The Endless Misadventure!" I'm with you on this one! Love how they tackle obstacles. Such positive outlooks and laugh at even the tough things. I thnk it gives a more realistic view of this lifestyle.
Thank you so much @trumpet.galllery and apologies for the delayed response! We definitely cannot blame you at this point for the nickname. We always think we've gotten everything sorted and then suddenly our entire subfloor is flooding 🙃
I love Clementine and all the hard work and hard earned you guys have put into her but she’s starting to put me off RV life 🤣😂 Hope your ankles better and your mums doing well as can be Eric ❤️Have fun and stay safe guys 👍 Much love and support , from Britain ❤️🇺🇸🇬🇧
I know y’all set out to create a really unique space (and you did) but water leaks are no joke. That’s why RV’s are made to have those boring 1 piece shower enclosures. Have you ever wondered why everyone is not installing wood shower enclosures? I’ll bet money that your wooden shower has been leaking into your floor and structure lonnnnnggggg before this new leak you just noticed. I’ve got a great idea for your next video……..”Eric and Allison replace their wooden shower with a fiberglass all-in-one shower enclosure from Home Depot”.
If you come back down this way, explore Washington's Olympic Peninsula. Mountains, ocean, rain forest, Port Townsend (one of three Victorian seaports on the National Historic Register)... and more. Fabulous place to live... and visit!
Going on a boat to Alaska is an excellent idea and will probably be very scenic, seeing all the beautiful coastlines. I will enjoy those videos!! 👍🏻👍🏻❤🇺🇸✌🏻🙏🏻
I really feel for you guys and all the difficulties you had this week, but I have to say I'm also really disappointed that I didn't get to see you explore Oregon at all. I've been waiting to see your reaction to all the beautiful landscapes we have here ever since you talked about hitting all 50 states, and it's kind of a huge letdown that none of that happened. Maybe someday you can come back and give this amazing state the attention it deserves.
We're gutted we didn't get to explore it either. Sadly Eric's ankle was just too swollen to do anything. We've always wanted to explore Bend and more of Oregon, so we'll definitely be back. Hopefully with healed ankles and a little less wildfire smoke 🤞
Hi Eric and Allison Let me start off by saying Eric I'm sorry your hurt and hope you heal up faster 2nd Allison Way to go on the Driving a Manual Transmission 3rd ok I've been Rv-ing for 30 plus years and in my years of Experience I've had to learn this method its the Jug bag tub and toss method By that I mean this right here Since water destroys Everything you have to put tubs in the sinks and put a shop vacuum in the rest room and vacuum out your shower and toss it away Tubes in the kitchen and jug ALL your water that way you have Zero issues of freezing and leaks
Eric, two weeks ago, I too twisted my left foot, but I chose to use a boot because I also hurt my right side of my body, so I knew I couldn't use crutches. I'm still recovering! Hope you recover faster than me. Love your videos. I hope you start having better luck with Clementine. I love your camper.
The best thing for an ankle sprain like that is a pair of socks and a pair of ankle walking boots. Crutches won’t help it heal , it needs enclosed support 🙂
Never thought that maintaining an RV is like nurturing a high-maintenance pet - except it's the one taking you on walks, and it's not afraid to challenge your parallel parking skills. If I would be trying to live on an RV for our TV show, without the skills that you have, I don't know how long I will last.
I can't help feeling disappointed that you are bypassing some of the most varied and beautiful terrain in the U.S.A. to go to Alaska. Washington State alone offers one of the world's only temperate rainforests with the most amazing old-growth forests, the Olympic Mountain range, and the Pacific Ocean coast with beautiful beaches, all on the Olympic Peninsula. The San Juan islands are so beautiful and fun to explore by ferry, and Mt. Rainier and the surrounding area can't be beat for beauty and wildlife viewing, and that's just a tiny taste of Western Washington. The eastern half of the state has a whole other climate and sights to see with the Cascade Mountain range separating the two halves of the state. I can't believe that you spent so much time in Death Valley, but just blew by some of the most beautiful scenery there is in the whole Country in Oregon and Washington. Alaska has been done over and over in travel video after travel video. The only videos I see of the PNW are all about Seattle and Portland, but there is soooo much more to these states than the cities. You missed a huge opportunity, and it makes me a little bit sad.
Bend is an awesome little town, too bad you could not share. I have had to have an ankle fused because I sprained my ankles so many times as a teenager. Several were actually breaks but I was so used to sprains I never knew. So take care of those ankles. Have fun as always!
this may sound funny to you, but alays put a little vasoline on the connector outside in the weather, on the threads ! vasoline is clean in use and its a great for waterproofing the connector outside.
Dont let the nay sayers knock Clementine. Fixing things is a normal part of rv life. Rarely do you get one trip with nothing to fix. Its a small price to pay for sailing down the road in your home! Remember, fancy rv's, yachts, million dollar rigs ALL break down the same way, in the same places, for the same reason. Do not be dismayed!😊❤
Feel soo bad for you too. Really enjoy watching. I believe most have no idea the amount of time spent developing your segments. Someday consider showing the behind the scenes of hours spent on the entertaining videos shown.
Bend, Oregon - one of the places I would love to explore! I spent only a brief few days there about 40 years ago and it was amazing then. Hope you have smooth sailing to Alaska!
Wrap the inside with plastic or run a shower curtain all the way around. I’ve done that in my house and you never have to clean the walls and never any damage. Good luck.
Been there with the shower. You are using the wrong sealer. Use Dow Corning all purpose sealer. You can get it at a big box store. It comes in regular tubes or calking gun tubes. It stays flexible when dry and won't flex loose. Drys clear. This will fix your issue. Don' t use regular calking. Dow also makes a windshield sealer. Pick up a tube of that while you are out. We don't want Allison to have a wet crotch!
So glad you did not break your ankle, Eric. When we had a travel trailer I was always super aware of the steps. We replaced the small support handle on the outside with a very large handle. Love you two and can't wait to see your Alaska videos !
I love you guys and have followed you for a few years. Not to be heartless but I think you should rename your channel “Endless RV Repair”. 😉 Keep the faith! 🙏🏼💕🫶🏻❤️
Water! You can't live with it, and you can't live without it! Even on a home tub, I've seen just a slight separation in the calk allow the water to actually creep upwards over the lip of the tub behind the wall and cause damage. It sounds like you could maybe have a similar problem! Good luck with it! 🙂
Just my two cents, but I would dump the jerry gas can. I had one on my Jeep, and the gas turned bad after 6 months because of the ethanol. Also, if someone rear ends you, you've got a Molitov cocktail on your hands, 😊
I live in Bend! Its too bad you guys didn't get to show it off proper! Hope that you got a warm welcome and will think about coming back through if you find yourself headed in our direction. Hope your ankle is healed up Eric! I look forward to your Alaska Adventures!
You’re probably off the crutches by the time you may see this but as a physio/physical therapist, you may find it better to have the one crutch in your opposite hand rather than on the affected side. This means you can step a bit more naturally & put weight through the right side as you step with the left foot. If this makes no sense, there’s plenty YT vids to demonstrate & you might find it reduces pain & feels a little more like your natural gait 👍🏻
Not gonna lie, I clicked cause he had no shirt on and I love the way he talks 🤩 On another, I love watching their adventures while I sit here doing statistics homework.
One more issue I hope you are concerned about. We had an RV where the windshield caused a leak which damaged inside the front door and dash area. The problems will just get worse the longer you wait to fix them. Good luck.
You need to go to Mt. Hood there are some great camping areas there plus the ski resorts! Then hop over to Washington and go to Mt. Adams you will not regret it at all…also, don’t miss the Oregon Coast!
The reason you’ve got shower leaks is because you put the wood behind the shower pan instead of inside it. Inside the shower pan forces the water to drain back into the pan, instead of seeping down the wall, like you are experiencing it.
What a shame that you missed exploring Bend. We were just there a few weeks ago and hiked to Tumalo Falls and actually found a path down to the Falls. We were able to walk behind the waterfall! What an experience!!
The New 40 foot RV I purchased had a million problems. Not mechanical problems, but how about a fridge that fell out of the wall at 15 mph. How about the microwave simply falling on the counter below while on the 10 highway in the middle of Phoenix. This was a new RV ! So good luck!
Eric. !I think you need to adjust those crutches. They've too high digging into your armpits. I know from experience and lots of it. Hugs and be careful 😺😺🍀🍀💚💚🇮🇪🇮🇪😺😺
For your rear camera problem buy a wireless video transmitter it avoid u running wires to your camera to screen u just hook to 12v from your rear ceiling lamp in clementine then 12v to the receiver hook to the monitor 😁👍🏾
Wow welcome and you.just went through right past us! Yes the fires have been so bad this year. Our Bend video came out last week and part 2 this week. When you hurt yourself i was like tackle the Bend Ale Trail and then at the end you said you did explore some breweries. Anyway our first trip to Alaska video will be out in a few weeks we ditched the RV and did a cruise loved it but decided we would take the RV next time Alaska is so gorgeous u are so lucky cant wait to see your adventures. Hope you come.back to The Pacific Northweat you went past so many great places!! Hope you heal quickly and Clementine cooperates! We were in hopes you were looking at property around washington or Oregon! 😊
I hot glue gun neodymium magnets on the wall then have a pair on both sides of the shower curtain, so they stay on the curtain in the correct spot if I move the curtain. Cheap fix at harbor freight.
I used liquid nail on my tub and when it dried I used regular water proof calk for the part you will see. That worked for us. Just a thought. Good luck.
OMG, you guys sure have your ups and downs with Clementine. It's a shame because you did such a beautiful job restoring her. I'm sorry you hurt your ankle Eric but in no time at all you'll be on the mend...safe travels as you take your next adventure into Alaska. Haven't heard you mention much about your mom lately so hope she's doing well. I will continue to pray for her ❤ 🙏
We just got home from an Alaskan cruise. Alaska is beautiful. Ericget that ankle better you are going to need it. Y'all have great videos and they show real life. Love your RV. Take care both of you.
Welcome to Central Oregon. Bummer you didn't make it to The Cowboy Dinner Tree in Silver Lake. A real tasty adventure. Lots of ourdoor fun outside of Bend, but you need 2 good ankles.😊
Good episode: watching the challenges of RV life is as interesting as watching the joys. You made a beautiful job of Clementine's restoration, but I do remember thinking that the wood-panelled shower might be a little on the eccentric side. Most shower cabinets are smooth plastic, glass or ceramic-tiled for a reason. But hey, it's characterful and character-building. Eric, you need to get some hi-topped sneakers and wear them 24/7. Much cooler than crutches.
Get a bore scope camera for your iPhone or Android. You can put the camera in really tight places. They are cheap 20 to 30 dollars the ones that attach to a phone. The ones mechanics use can be a couple hundred.
We took our 1984 Chevy Mallard all the way up to the Arctic Circle sign above Fairbanks your rig is definitely good enough to go all the way up there. You’re just really coming at a bad time because it’s already going to start snowing we have what we call termination dust showing up on top of the mountains already, I am in Wasilla
Aw. When you said you were going to be in Bend I was hoping you’d show everyone Bevel Brewery and throw some discs! You should do the Underground Tour in Seattle if you’ve never done it. That seems like something you guys would enjoy.
You have ta' drive back from Tok, Chicken, and the Stewart-Cassiar Highway! It is Breathtaking!!!! Stop by Mukluk Land in Tok Alaska (Yeah, it is our version of Disney World, and don't forget to buy a t-shirt in Chicken Alaska (believe me, you will know it).... 😅
Geez you guy’s have been thru some rough times with Clementine. You are very patient and always trying to remain positive. May I suggest a vehicle name change to Lemontime as she seems to suffer some ongoing misfortune. Anyway, enjoy your Alaska adventure and safe travels on the road. 👌
Hope that ankle gets better soon. I'd get some kind of dessicant or dehydrator to put under the sink to absorb that residual moisture and hopefully keep any rot from starting.
I lived in Anchorage for 5 years way back when I know of some really good restaurants, go to Kincaid grill, great seafood and steak place, also go to the Southside Bistro another great place to eat and finally the Bridge Seafood is awesome, its a restaurant built on a bridge over ship creek, really cool place. Enjoy it.
That manual transmission is in and of itself an anti-theft device, I would bet less than 20% of Americans could drive it. No worries, I snub the engine occasionally on my jetta as well! I too, have the same issues from time to time when I have an injury to my left lower extremity and am unable to work the clutch. This was a great adventure, great because you two demonstrate the resourcefulness to tackle any issues life throws at you!👍
Your RV life is maybe the best advertisement for AirBnB ever 😂
Their RV is still better than an Airbnb, and they can go wherever they want and they are not staying in a place where other people's germs are.
😂😂😂😂😂
NOW THIS is the best comment here!

I always thought I wanted a used RV, but thanks to you, I realize that was a very dumb dream.
Their RV is beautiful and worth the little aggravations
@jeffhampton2767 Not for someone my age. They are young. Have you been here throughout the breakdowns, major engine overhauls, and extensive repairs, unsurmountable aggravations, months of waiting on repairs, and re-repairs?
@@jeffhampton2767 then hope you get one and have these problems since you think its ok to have all these issues
LITTLE??? hahaha...the word is CONSTANT. lol
@@lisalowery4849 I agree
You guys have had such a tough year. I wish you peace and tranquillity during your Alaskan adventures!
Do something slow and easy, it's not a race it's the journey
What I love about you guys is you always show the good as well as the bad be happy be safe

Rv's take a lot of work in general but you're asking for a world of headache buying a 40+ yr old motorhome like these two

If I had a 4X4 rugged top of line truck then I would drive in Alaska not with Clementine
This is a time to be gratefull for dry, hot weather. It WILL make a difference!
Never mind, that ended 2 seconds ago - I spoke too soon!
When it rains it pours 😂😂😂 everywhere apparently!!
R.I.C.E. = rest, ice, compression, elevation. Hopefully it’s better by now. Love your videos!
A damp sponge under a ace bandage cures a sprained ankle. No joker. Safe travels.
The Money Pit is a funny movie. Reminds me of your RV adventures. Hope you heal up.
I really feel for you guys and all the difficulties you had this week, but I have to say I'm also really disappointed that I didn't get to see you explore Oregon at all. I've been waiting to see your reaction to all the beautiful landscapes we have here ever since you talked about hitting all 50 states, and it's kind of a huge letdown that none of that happened.

With you on that ankle job. "Sprained" my left one 40 years a go. It's never been the same since.
Honestly, watching your videos make me know there's no way I would do it your way.
Oh yeah that ankle looks painful. Can’t wait for the Alaska trip. Tell clementine to stop acting up
So glad you did not break your ankle, Eric. When we had a travel trailer I was always super aware of the steps. We replaced the small support handle on the outside with a very large handle. Love you two and can't wait to see your Alaska videos !

New RV's can give you the same type of problems. Thankfully, you can do a lot of the work yourselves.

You need to go to Mt. Hood there are some great camping areas there plus the ski resorts! Then hop over to Washington and go to Mt. Adams you will not regret it at all…also, don’t miss the Oregon Coast!
Get a $3 engraver from harbor freight & engrave all your keys & locks. Helps so much.
The reason you’ve got shower leaks is because you put the wood behind the shower pan instead of inside it. Inside the shower pan forces the water to drain back into the pan, instead of seeping down the wall, like you are experiencing it.
What ?
The walls of a shower should drain the water back into the tub, instead of allowing the water to drain behind the tub.
What a shame that you missed exploring Bend. We were just there a few weeks ago and hiked to Tumalo Falls and actually found a path down to the Falls. We were able to walk behind the waterfall! What an experience!!
I love how ya'll keep going thru all the "miss"adventures!
The endless adventure can make a water leak fun.

Need to caulk that windshield or that issue will never go away. If that thing causes any other issues just drive it into the Pacific.
Welcome to the Pacific N.W....your boat ride will be wonderful
Enjoy the ride!

Yeah!!! So glad you guys are back to Seattle!!! Can't wait to see your journey to Alaska and adventures there!
I really do wish you two could catch a break. Love from Cheshire England 💙💜
For your rear camera problem buy a wireless video transmitter it avoid u running wires to your camera to screen u just hook to 12v from your rear ceiling lamp in clementine then 12v to the receiver hook to the monitor 😁👍🏾
Wow welcome and you.just went through right past us! Yes the fires have been so bad this year. Our Bend video came out last week and part 2 this week. When you hurt yourself i was like tackle the Bend Ale Trail and then at the end you said you did explore some breweries. Anyway our first trip to Alaska video will be out in a few weeks we ditched the RV and did a cruise loved it but decided we would take the RV next time Alaska is so gorgeous u are so lucky cant wait to see your adventures. Hope you come.back to The Pacific Northweat you went past so many great places!! Hope you heal quickly and Clementine cooperates! We were in hopes you were looking at property around washington or Oregon! 😊
Get a dehumidifier to help dry out the floor. Hope you are feeling better soon Eric!
Install a second shower curtain in the back of your shower to protect the wood wall.
I hot glue gun neodymium magnets on the wall then have a pair on both sides of the shower curtain, so they stay on the curtain in the correct spot if I move the curtain. Cheap fix at harbor freight.
I used liquid nail on my tub and when it dried I used regular water proof calk for the part you will see. That worked for us. Just a thought. Good luck.
Thanks Globetrotters always something and that means not going through BC. Canada .
Love watching your adventures!! Looking forward to seeing Alaska thru your lens!!
Sorry about your ankle, Erik. Glad it’s healing. At least we got some half-naked repair footage before you fell! 😜 Safe boating…

Haven't heard you mention much about your mom lately so hope she's doing well. I will continue to pray for her ❤ 🙏
Thx for vids. Will definitely have an outdoor shower, even if its one of those that you fill with warm water.👍🙌
We just got home from an Alaskan cruise. Alaska is beautiful. Ericget that ankle better you are going to need it. Y'all have great videos and they show real life. Love your RV. Take care both of you.
Hey, people have leaks in houses too. That's just life.
Welcome to Central Oregon. Bummer you didn't make it to The Cowboy Dinner Tree in Silver Lake. A real tasty adventure. Lots of ourdoor fun outside of Bend, but you need 2 good ankles.😊
Hang in there eventually this will get better.
Sad you're not stopping in Crater Lake. It was right on your way. Good luck with the leak =)
Good episode: watching the challenges of RV life is as interesting as watching the joys. You made a beautiful job of Clementine's restoration, but I do remember thinking that the wood-panelled shower might be a little on the eccentric side. Most shower cabinets are smooth plastic, glass or ceramic-tiled for a reason. But hey, it's characterful and character-building. Eric, you need to get some hi-topped sneakers and wear them 24/7. Much cooler than crutches.
Bend is awesome. Go to McMinngins restaurant and bar. It's so cool, food, and the atmosphere of the cigar bar with outdoor fires.
Get a bore scope camera for your iPhone or Android. You can put the camera in really tight places. They are cheap 20 to 30 dollars the ones that attach to a phone. The ones mechanics use can be a couple hundred.
My new favorite "fix it" channel. Thanks guys!!!
We took our 1984 Chevy Mallard all the way up to the Arctic Circle sign above Fairbanks your rig is definitely good enough to go all the way up there. You’re just really coming at a bad time because it’s already going to start snowing we have what we call termination dust showing up on top of the mountains already, I am in Wasilla
Btw, clementine doesnt seem to love mountain hills, but driving through bc is BEAUTIFUL
Thankfully the smoke is gone. Yall should also head out to the coast of WA. Nice drive and great camping out there.
Aw. When you said you were going to be in Bend I was hoping you’d show everyone Bevel Brewery and throw some discs! You should do the Underground Tour in Seattle if you’ve never done it. That seems like something you guys would enjoy.
You have ta' drive back from Tok, Chicken, and the Stewart-Cassiar Highway! It is Breathtaking!!!! Stop by Mukluk Land in Tok Alaska (Yeah, it is our version of Disney World, and don't forget to buy a t-shirt in Chicken Alaska (believe me, you will know it).... 😅
Geez you guy’s have been thru some rough times with Clementine. You are very patient and always trying to remain positive.
May I suggest a vehicle name change to Lemontime as she seems to suffer some ongoing misfortune.
Anyway, enjoy your Alaska adventure and safe travels on the road. 👌
Hope that ankle gets better soon. I'd get some kind of dessicant or dehydrator to put under the sink to absorb that residual moisture and hopefully keep any rot from starting.
hope your ankle recovers soon Eric
Bless your hearts…I would have pushed it over a cliff long ago. Reminds me why I stay at hotels.
I love the esthetics of your RV.
I recently discovered your channel.. It is always fun to watch you. Nancy
I lived in Anchorage for 5 years way back when I know of some really good restaurants, go to Kincaid grill, great seafood and steak place, also go to the Southside Bistro another great place to eat and finally the Bridge Seafood is awesome, its a restaurant built on a bridge over ship creek, really cool place. Enjoy it.
That manual transmission is in and of itself an anti-theft device, I would bet less than 20% of Americans could drive it. No worries, I snub the engine occasionally on my jetta as well! I too, have the same issues from time to time when I have an injury to my left lower extremity and am unable to work the clutch. This was a great adventure, great because you two demonstrate the resourcefulness to tackle any issues life throws at you!👍
Get well soon Eric and I love both your and Allison's can do and positive attitude. Keep going and am so looking forward to the Alaska adventures❤
I wish I spotted you and Clementine in Bend. Hope you enjoyed and come back! Can't wait for Alaska adventures 😍
