I feel your pain setting up. The smaller outfit is easier to drive around than a big motorhome, but then you pay for it with unpacking. I hope you were nice to the mountain lions. Cats are cool.
It’s a absolutely beautiful ! A very different style environment to the dense humid south east forests where we have been for the last year (excluding a Baja trip)
Good evening Chris, Elizabeth & Mona ! Thanks for sharing this wonderful video ! Love all the toys. The location is a dream scape ! I can’t wait to see just what adventures you have in store for us ! Give Mona an ear rub & keep smiling !
Loved seeing how you set everything up and a more realistic view of full time van life coz you are so right, most people are just filming their holidays and actually have a base!! 🤩 awesome work guys 🥰 PS as if you saw 3 mountain lions…. That’s insane!!
Gald you both survived the trek across the country. Fire up those cameras and please keep those videos coming. California should be a great place to stay. Lots of activities for you both.
I started watching your videos a few weeks ago. We are buying a brand new Palomino camper. You guys have inspired my wife and I to start our own channel. Keep up the good work.
I don't think I heard the name of the place or the location you are at. Is this a new place? Why are they closed during the summer? I heard something about Monterey? How far from Monterey? Maybe this fall or spring we can get out there in our new camper. We go to CA all the time for vacations.
I followed your lead and purchased a Northstar camper! It's a 2003 850SC, it was a 6-1/2 foot version and I turned it into an 8 foot version to fit my 2014 Ram 2500! It is in repair mode now but I really like it so far!
I like your simple life of truck camping with cool toys. I have a lance 650 I travel in 4 months in the summer. Recently was Phoenix to Myrtle Beach. Looking forward to your next videos. Get a onewheel next. I ride mine often!
Myrtle beach is our old stomping grounds! We would love to get a one wheel ! We have looked into them a lot. Maybe after a few paychecks hit at our new jobs here .
Watching this from Carlsbad state beach campground. Amazing weather here as I'm sure you're experiencing. Love how you two take life right on the chin....xlnt teamwork! Keep kicking ass. Timmy C Arizona
Hello Chris and Elizabeth!! Woo hoo....glad you made it out west! Are you filming real time, as in you missed last week's Hurricane Hilary? Yes...those little tool chests with sliding drawers are awesome! I got a socket and wrench set for $100 on sale at Home Depot. And, I also got a soft tool bag for extra screw drivers, pliers, and other ancillary tools. Both of those come along in our travel trailer; and I use the heck out of it! It looks awesome there! Do you have enough elevation there that it is only in the 70s-ish degrees there? Ha...your boat looks like an awesome utility trailer! I just got back from a 2 night flight to Phoenix, and then up to Monterey CA. When I departed Monterey, it was clear and million views. Our routing took us over the John Muir Wilderness area, with Yosemite to the north and Mt Whitney to the south. TONS of backcountry stuff out there that I look forward to exploring some day! Then we crossed to the north of all of the restricted areas in Nevada, over some of the parks in UT, and then into Telluride CO. So much to see and so little time to see it (which really supports the route you two have chose!). Ok...NC Game Wardens, eh? So...here's my game warden story. I was back from a deployment. It was kind of quiet in the rear detachment as 2 of the units replaced us (I'd like to think it took 2 units to do what our 1 unit did). So, I scored some time off that was going to essentially be 2 weeks of camping. 1 week was up in Jordan Lake in NC; the next week was out at Onslow Beach campground at Camp Lejeune. At Jordan Lake, it was a bunch of friends camping. All of the boat owners in our group brought their boats. I don't own a boat.......but, I "borrowed" a zodiac and the motor from a location. If you recall on Jordan Lake, there are those highway bridges that cross over a few of the coves on Jordan Lake. I had all of our camping friends' kids with me in the zodiac. A few of the other campers with boats were in front of me. Those bridge areas are no wake zones. Well...as I putted under the bridge, on the other side was a state park ranger boat.....and he pointed for me to pull out of the way and stop. Of course, he was wanting to see flotation devices for everyone; which I had. And finally the topic came to boat registration. I was like "uhhhh...this is my unit boat....and it doesn't have a registration; we've been on a zillion rotations and the boats have just been sitting in the motor pool. So, I'm exercising it". Well....the registration thing, or lack of it, was becoming a real thing. For some reason, after I identified myself, and eventually my unit, the ranger asked me if I knew person so and so. I certainly did as he was in my unit. He used to be a park ranger....and came onto active duty not too far back. So....the tone changed. The ranger told me to have a great day. He kind of insinuated that I should enjoy the day, but park the boat eventually. I responded that since it is a holiday weekend, we're actually going to be boating all weekend. So, he gave me his contact info in the event one of his coworkers stopped us again that weekend. Yes...I really like your ebikes! We got some on a trip to Los Angeles last year; they mailed them to our house. Sadly, it was in November; which meant my riding season at 8000 feet here in Ouray was over :-( But, like you said, they are awesome; and they really open up your time schedule for the day! I am flying my boss to L.A. this coming Sunday, on 3 September. My wife and her aunt will come with. We'll head out to Palm Springs for the time that we are there. In October, I have 2.5 weeks off. My wife and I (with German Shepherd) will return to California for that time. We will be getting our condo furnished on that trip. Safe travels! DOL
The videos are about 2-3 weeks behind real life time. We were here for the hurricane but it completely missed us . It didn’t even rain here. The literal fun police come out of nowhere sometimes lol. We are not super familiar with lake Jordan but have both been there ! It’s not high enough here to escape the heat it’s gonna be 98 deg here today.
@@CandEAdventures Bleh...I wish you would have, at least, got some rain out of that storm. I'm hoping most of the roads are back up and going in Palm Springs this coming week; I'm assuming they are, with the exception of a few that had structural damage. Oh wow....98 is up there. I've found the lower 80s is about my limit of enjoying my trailer, without running the a/c. I can run the a/c for about 3-3.5 hours off of my solar batteries, but then would need to turn on the generator to get those recharged for the night. Safe travels!
Oh, That is just Awesome!!!, I'm so happy for you guys!!! When you get settled and have a postal number or PO box let me know I have some pins I've been saving for your camper interior. You guys really can find sweet looking spots, you both have a knack for it!!! Love to you Both , and Mona - Dave
10-4 ! We are still figuring the mail situation out. The campground we live at doesn’t currently receive mail and the closest P.O. Box is about 40 min drive away lol. We are working on a solution though!!
Hi. Doesn't the motorcycle on the front hitch cause your truck to be illegal? or are your headlights and turn signals visible such that it is not illegal? Reason I ask is that I want to do a similar setup with my truck camper, but I don't yet know the legal details of it.
We have zero insurance lol. It’s too expensive. We try to exercise and eat healthy (ish) and not take any undue risks . There is always a risk vs rewards assessment being made lol.
@@jefferyscott9082 it sure is . Every time we have needed any kind of medical care there is always a huge discount to not use insurance because they get their money now and don’t have to go through all the hassle. The insurance companies don’t build their skyscrapers out of the kindness of their hearts lol

@@Islandgirl671 thank you so much!! Also thank you for noticing the editing !! We spend about 1 hour for every 1 minute of video on editing . California is beautiful , more videos on the way!!!
Congrats on the end of your journey. I am no expert .But from watching lots of gold mining videos,looks like you are in prime gold country. Get a gold pan , watch gold getting videos and hit the river. Please let us know what your duties are there. Good luck. Jerry D. in Pa.
Currently we are in charge of cleaning out toilets and running the cash register and doing landscaping at a beach access area here . We would love to look for gold ! We have looked at panning and mini portable dredges for a while now!
Hope Mona's paw heals well. Did you pack some hydrogen peroxide? You two are a great, organized TEAM. I love seeing how you are setting up your home. You two are awesome and I know you will love the wildlife and peace. Do you have a drinking water source at the campground? Take care and I'm looking forward to your next video! BTW...those e-bikes are awesome!! 👍👍 Hugs to Mona. 🤗❤️
We actually forgot peroxide but made a run to town for some. We do have a source it’s just currently out so kinda roughing it for a little bit . The wildlife and scenery is awesome so far !!
This is too funny I guess you guys haven’t really traveled much in your life because I think about you all dead because you emptied your garage into two vehicles venture. Why are you even got two vehicles lol kind of crazy I would not want your expenses I have an all this stuff takes the life right out of the fun of what you’re doing.
We live in a camper , we have no house . We are not on vacation. We work 50-60 hours a week at jobs and film RUclips on top of it. The way we live is not fun lol it’s work.

little by little one of my favorite channels is getting more subscribers!
It’s the largest growth we have ever seen in all our 5 years on RUclips !
Hafa Adai. Find some Agates and Japers and Jade. Spectacular Views
Hafa adai ! We will keep a look out for them! Never found any before
Mona is so darn cute
I'm so excited for this channel with this new location. Excited for all the activities you guys are going to show us! 🤩🤩🤩
We are excited also !!! More videos coming asap !!!
I feel your pain setting up. The smaller outfit is easier to drive around than a big motorhome, but then you pay for it with unpacking. I hope you were nice to the mountain lions. Cats are cool.
Know the location well, spent a lot of free time there in the 70's while in the Navy. Looks like it hasn't changed at all. I'm jealous.
It’s a absolutely beautiful ! A very different style environment to the dense humid south east forests where we have been for the last year (excluding a Baja trip)
I'm a brand new subscriber. I absolutely love your channel. I really like all your toys. I there any fun stuff you don't have yet?
Welcome! And thank you for watching!! Oh we’ve got a list of toys we would love to have…starting with a couple Mokais 😂
Good evening Chris, Elizabeth & Mona ! Thanks for sharing this wonderful video ! Love all the toys. The location is a dream scape ! I can’t wait to see just what adventures you have in store for us ! Give Mona an ear rub & keep smiling !

Time to bring reality back to RUclips ! Looking forward to the river land !
I'm happy to see you made it out here California, ENJOY
Thank you ! It’s beautiful so far!
I remember a few years ago watching your vids from Guam, really loved the vibes of nature and freedom. Great to see you found a new spot!
Thank you for the kind words Niki!
Looks like a nice place to spend some time 👍
Gald you both survived the trek across the country. Fire up those cameras and please keep those videos coming. California should be a great place to stay. Lots of activities for you both.
More videos on the way !! All our junk make it !! Thank you for watching 🙏
Awesome video can’t wait for next episode
More coming soon!!
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!!!!!!! Now for in and out on our day off !!!🥹🙏🙏
@@CandEAdventures yeah 😁🍔🍻🍔😋
I ❤ how Mona immediately found the shade once the awning was up!
😂 she really did as soon as it was up! Smart little cookie
I started watching your videos a few weeks ago. We are buying a brand new Palomino camper. You guys have inspired my wife and I to start our own channel. Keep up the good work.

Our campers don’t seem to have changed much over the years , so the older models sure seem to save money 💴. We love the camper so far !
Good luck on all your upcoming adventures. It's beautiful there.
Thank you! It’s is super pretty for sure !!
You two are awesome! Came across your channel looking up the hiboy escooter review and ended up watching your other videos! Great content
Thank you for sticking around !!!

So cool! I'm glad you guys made it to California safely. I can't wait for your next video.
Coming soon! All our old junk made it 😂
Looks like you got a plan and so far it is working! Glad you guys made it out there!
So far so good fingers crossed !!
@@CandEAdventures watching from Taiwan. So you are world wide!
@@murdiesel that’s awesome !!
Watching this from Carlsbad state beach campground. Amazing weather here as I'm sure you're experiencing. Love how you two take life right on the chin....xlnt teamwork! Keep kicking ass. Timmy C Arizona
Your right it’s def awesome weather! Enjoy Carlsbad !! We take it on the chin like fedor 😂. Might get wobbly but not out
Glad y’all made it out there safely. I can’t wait to see the videos that come out of that beautiful location.
Coming soon!
Awesome! Looks like you’ve made it home!
It’s an awesome temporary home for sure !
Note to self: after applying said Sharpie, apply a cheap clear nail polish. 😉

Thanks for still watching Emilio!!
I believe I would be selling the Honda and get a truck you could pull an enclosed trailer for all your stuff.
Good luck on this next adventure, can't wait to see more of what you do with those e bikes! 💜
How will you use that pull up bar? Is there a building with a doorway nearby?
It was strange to hear Chris say he was liking that area in California. 😆
I need the name of that campsite ASAP!
Just tell me how much to donate..
🤣 we can’t give it up
