Thank you so much for taking us along on this magnificent journey. Many of us are now alone in life and don't get to go on these adventures anymore so for those of us sitting at home, watching your travel videos it means the world to us. Your beautiful photography and narration puts us in the front seat of your RV with you. Thanks again for all you do, stay safe and have fun. ❤
Thank you.
Well, 3 things. 1. Thanks again for the BEAUTIFUL video, it was both informative and beautiful to see. Those panoramic shots are amazing. 2. You two are such a cute couple❤. 3. I could just smell the soup/stew from here. My mouth was salivating as you were describing it (though, you lost me a bit with the mushrooms, I'm not a mushroom fan). Thanks again for the video, keep it up. I'm looking forward to more of your trip.
spoly8139, very well said. Exactly what I was thinking. I am alone also and these videos are like me being there. At 73 I am not even capable of doing all that walking and I am so proud of Elizabeth for all her efforts of getting around like that.
Well said! My thoughts as well. Thank you.
What a beautiful journey! Seeing places I might not ever get to see in person. And yes Elizabeth the background when you said you wanted to song and be Julie Andrews would have been perfect! 😊
I'm a 71 j.old women and i will never be in the U.S. i love that you 2 take me with that beaufull adventure.❤❤❤ 🇳🇱Greetings from the Netherlands. 🇳🇱
As a 63 year old American woman I have been all over the U.S. that I love, so I had to say that I will probably never get to Europe, but I love watching travel videos of the beauty that is Europe. We're not so different.😊
I have a new respect for the old western scenes
I love going on trips with RUclipsrs! I’m a professed homebody. I got married late and did all my running in the Army. But now I’m happy to stay home. 😊
Elizabeth, your joy and excitement is infectious. You both are blessed.🙏. Thanks for taking us along.
😊❤️
Thank you for taking us along. Beautiful doesn't even begin to describe it.
Thank you for taking us with you on this amazing trip. God has created such a beautiful world to see and love. Love watching you both.
You are so welcome
Love the music that you chose for this trip.
Envy doesn't begin to explain it. Truly amazing. It's an optical overload. Just, Wow!
Beautiful, Beautiful Beautiful scenery😊🌺🌼🌻🇺🇲
Beautiful trip, thank you for letting me join you .😊
Elizabeth I have to chuckle when you say you could see yourself down my the trees and rock boulders living there. What many may not realize is that flash flooding happens along these beds and dry river beds. Never camp in these areas when rain is in the forecast. Be safety aware. This is desert country. In Capital Reef massive floods have gone through very sides openings 1/2 mile or more and caused the earth to change drastically. What people will find out when exploring Utah is that the scenery changes so much around every curve and turn. So much to see and choose from. It's like turning pages in a picture book. Glad you are feasting your eyes and feeding your souls with God's creative beauty. You have only seen about 1% of the astounding beauty the state has to offer. The southwestand/or the four corner states are amazing with so many hidden gems.
You are so right! To stay somewhere, you have to know more than just the fact that it is beautiful! Yes, these four corner states have so much amazing beauty to offer! I haven’t been able to see the Milky Way in ages! 😄

What a blessing to be living the life you longed for. That’s an amazing solar system.
Wow I love this trip I’m so happy you’re having a good trip and thanks for sharing it with us. GOD bless you
Praying for your Florida property during these weather emergencies. Keep rolling along.
It came through the storm just fine. 😀👍
@@LiveSimpleLiveFree Praise God. Enjoy.🙏
*So very beautiful!*
*Thank you for sharing your beautiful trip with us!*
❤
Wow, what a spectacular adventure you are having! God is so good; what a gorgeous world He has created for us to enjoy! I'm glad the solar setup and batteries are working out for the mini split, and the box truck is nice and sturdy to take you on your way. Thank you for sharing this awesome trip with us! ❤
Thank you, both, so much for your pictures, commentary, and all the effort + investment you’ve put into bringing us along. 👍👍🙌💎😘 -V
Yes, it was a disappointment that Capital Reef was closed. But was still an AMAZING drive!
Thanks Bill and Elizabeth. Absolutely stunning views!Looking forward to the next part of your journey! 🥰
Really loving travelling with you both. It’s been fun, thank you!
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for taking us along ❤
This was a beautiful video - so gorgeous! Being confined to a wheelchair, sharing your adventures vicariously is just awesome. Thank you for taking time to film.
If you're going to camp alone in remote areas you might consider a satellite phone for one of you. It would be good to have if Elizabeth would need emergency medical attention or if Bill would have an accident and need an ambulance. Just a thought ... but then, I tend to be very cautious.
The Lord is with you as you travel. How beautiful is the scenery! And your home is with you! ❤
I like watching you use your Thrive products
Thank you guys for letting me see the scenery as you're traveling I appreciate it it's beautiful
Thank you for sharing your journey! I doubt I will ever make it out west. So, it’s really nice to see this part of the country!
It’s so great to see Elizabeth feeling so well.
Enjoy your journey! God bless!
Absolutely beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing.
I love road trips but I never spent much time in Utah, so I appreciate coming along on your trip. Beautiful scenery.😊
What a great adventure!
Thank you so much for taking us with you!! I have enjoyed it so much. Safe travels and prayers.
God is blessing you with the desires of your 💕 s. Oh and thank you for blessing us also.
You two are just so adorable! The stew looks delicious!
Elizabeth! Wow-you look so pretty in that purple top and the hat with the purple flower-girl-dark purple is your color! Beautiful! Sorry Bill-Elizabeth stole the moment starting at 4:25 😊. I'm having so much fun on this trip out West! Thanks for taking us all with you.
Thanks! I’ve always loved purple! 😊
This is wonderful! Thank you!
Wow; although I’ve lived in Utah for 21 years, because I don’t travel I’ve never seen any of those amazing places. I cannot thank you enough for sharing this trip with me. I love you guys 🙏💕💞💖🤗
Bill did a good job with the camper Elizabeth. Wonderful you have someone who can do all that stuff! Blessing...
I love those layers of various shades of red❣️
Thank you two for bringing such joy to my life. You bring tears to my eyes with the happiness. You have worked for your dreams and goals and deserve it all. Cool box truck too!❤
I was referring to the part of your drive where you had sheer drop offs on each side of the road. Now that is what I call a real cliffhanger. 🤗 So much fun and excitement for an armchair traveler. Love you guys and keep having fun.
Oh, ok. Yes, it was!
I love boondocking the sites you see are amazing, and I love the quietness. Thank you for taking us along. I just bought the Thrive Life beef sauce, and I can't wait to try it. My first dish will be beef stew, that's why I bought it. we love beef stew but aren't able to have it as much as we would like, but now I think it's possible with Thrive. Till next time, God bless.
Yup, fast and easy! Enjoy.
I have watched so called cliff hangers before, but that was a real one. 😊 I can not begin to tell you how much I enjoy this trip. I am amazed with the comfort, security and safety your box truck has afforded you. The scenery is breathtaking. I thank you so much. I loved AZ, but hadn’t seen Utah. They are both beautiful And a definite contrast with the mountains of East TN. God bless and continued safe travels.
You mean about Capital Reef being closed? Yeah. That was a disappointment. But we want you to experience our trip as we experienced it. So we’re not going to give spoiler alert at the beginning!
Glorious adventure! So happy to see y'all having such fun!
I'm sold! That beef stew looked so good and I think I am going to look into ordering some! Beautiful state park! Y'all are having so much fun! Be safe!
Thank you for allowing me to travel through you guys. Prayers for your safety and health.❤
My late husband and I went into the petrified forest on our way to Alaska. It is so vast and so amazing and so awesome. I’m so glad you got a chance to visit this.
Thank you everything is beautiful. God bless you.
if you pause the vidio at the 26:02 mark, there is a giant heart in the cliffs across the canyon❤thank you so much for sharing!
Beautiful Scenery !!! Elizabeth you are looking Wonderful !!! Safe travels !!!
Thank you, Bill and Elizabeth, for the beautiful tour.
What a joy to share in your trip this way! I’ve never seen that part of the U.S. It’s truly amazing!🥰
Yes, it is. That’s why we love it so much!
Wow what beautiful views. Ty for taking us along. ❤
I am enjoying memories via your travels. We have driven some of those very roads when we were younger. Absolutely no words to explain or describe the beauty and colors of Utah and those lower states as also in AZ. I was anxious for Bill driving that road with the huge drop offs on either side. I used to not be fearful of that type of roads or travel but now at 78, nope.......I can't do it. I would be climbing the walls with anxiety. I could do it when younger and glad we did as it is something everyone would find some type of beauty. Our USA has so many gorgeous places and adventures for exploring and Mountains it is unbelievable. Even in the desert there is beauty .......it's all around us each day if we just stop a minute to enjoy. Thank you for sharing, this was gorgeous and so glad you have gotten a bit of your bucket list items accomplished. Now you will now exactly where you want to go again! So fun!!
Blessings and safe travels~
Soooo happy you are having this great adventure together!!! I can tell you both are enjoying it to the max!!!
I am enjoying your trip! I feel like I'm camping with you! It is such a joy when I see your videos have been uploaded! A highlight to my day! Praying for blessings on you both! ❤
Beautiful scenery, so glad you got to experience it.
Let's gooooo!🧡
Thank ya'll for letting us go with you
Groovy just too cool!
Yes that road that drops off for an hour - Yikes. So that route is for the brave and believers.
Sounds like a bucket list item was ✅.
Glad Bill is an experienced truck driver. Ironic how things fall into place.🙏
Happy Trails.🚚🌌
Incredible adventure! I prayed with y’all at dinner! I do also pray for y’all. Y’all bless a lot of people.
Thank you so much!
❤❤
We drove this and I’ll tell you it was the scariest drive I’ve been on in the U.S. Hwy 12! Wow! I was glad we were only pulling a Casita!
Beautiful guys! Elizabeth is doing great! Glad you’re having such a good time! Love Thrive Life too!
Watching and listening to you both is just like being there! Thanks again for sharing with us!!! Be careful and be safe!
So proud of you Elizabeth! You are looking so great and your health is improving so nicely. Praise GOD! Thank you to both of you for sharing your adventures. It means so much to me. Ya’ll are an inspiration!
❤️
Beautiful 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸☦️
I just love looking at the scenery it is so beautiful thank you for showing it love in Jesus name
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!! Look forward to the next video. Blessings.
Utah has more national parks than any other state! It’s just absolutely beautiful. Petrified trees are amazing and how they turn to rock! It’s amazing what the Colorado River carved out! We took the mules to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and got to stay at Phantom Ranch, words cannot describe how amazing it was! Oh by the way, it was 126 at the bottom!
I have just recently started watching your videos and I love them so much.Your travel videos are so amazing and the box truck camper is simple adorable.My husband and I are both in our mid 70’s and he is also a man of many trades but loves to piddle in his wood shop making swings and bird houses,feeders and whatever he likes to dream up.We we’re also stationed in Germany in 1969.You two are just plain simple people and are so enjoyable to watch.I have become an avid video watcher and I have just got so ingrossed in yours that takes up a lot of my time.Please keep on putting your videos out there!
Welcome! We’re so glad you are enjoying our videos. 😀
You both are Awesome! Really good Video I love how you both made that nice truck into an RV . I also love when you say grace, ! May God bless you both in your Amazing travels.
Thanks so much for taking us on an adventure!! God Bless
There are some amazing Petroglyphs in Capital Reef. And yes, I remember driving that trek between Bryce Canyon and Capital Reef - - hair raising for sure!! Brent and I talked about the lack of guardrails - crazy!!! You're absolutely right about the magnificent night sky in the west. We used to sit outside at night just watching the stars, talking to God and listening to the quiet. I miss those days. So glad to see you having these wonderful experiences. Thank you for taking your viewers along with you - brings back so many beautiful memories for me! Continued safe travels.... Blessings from Florida....
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.
We love that area of the country and have visited all those National Parks as well! But we would have to say the drive from Utah going into Nevada on I - 15 through the Gorge will leave you speechless! It's amazing!
That looks amazing. Thanks for the trip.
Of the mighty Five and dead horse Point Capital Reef my favorite because ur down inside the canyon.. Valley of Fire a beautiful second..I was born on the wrong side of the country..glad u can transfer to the truck cab if need a fast get away safer for sure.. Godspeed and safe travels greetings from NC and just one more mile
Enjoy watching you all and your adventures
What a great adventure!! Thanks for taking us along 😊
Thank you for taking us along with you on your beautiful trip, loving it❤
Thank the both of you for allowing us to live vicariously through your adventure. God sure has created absolutely stunning scenery for us to see, and oft times we either fail to acknowledge the gift,or the gifter,so tyvvm,for bringing that beauty to us,so we can also experience it,as well as have a great chance to thank God for it.
😊❤️
Your vacation has been very beautiful i love the canyons they look so majestic Safe travels
So happy you got to boondocks like you have always wanted 😊
Just beautiful.❤
Wow, those rocks formations are amazing.
Some scary driving area, but beautiful. Please be careful !! Thanks for taking us along !!!
Wow, what an amazing drive! I'm blown away by the scenery, and that's just by watching on my TV. Being there in real life must be totally jaw dropping!
Thank you so much for taking us along😊
The views really are staggering! 😄
Wow! So cool!
You are doing a wonderful job of showing and appreciating my backyard! I'd just like to add a few notes to your narrative. That ridge, with VERY steep drop-offs on both sides you rode across, is known as "Hell's Backbone." Although you didn't comment on it, the air quality was not as good as normal because of the wild fires currently in the western states. That beautiful mountain you went over before coming into Torrey was "Boulder Mt." Normally, you can see into Colorado from some of the overlook areas on that mountain. I live in the small town of Loa, which is the county seat of wayne County, about 20 miles west of Torrey. If you love the outdoors, this is the best place in the world to live (in my opinion). Within 30 minutes from my home I can go in one direction and be in beautiful green forests - or in another direction and be in the wonderful red-rock country that you enjoyed. I've been following your adventures for the last year or so, and enjoyed them all. Thanks for visiting my part of Utah, and sharing it with all your fans! Can't wait for the next adventure!
What a fun video! Such beauty on your adventures!❤ And honestly, the beef stew looked great, too! It was so nice to share meal prayer with you all!
Beautiful! One more thing to add to your camper - an indoor outdoor thermometer and a chargeable fan.
I just added an indoor thermometer. I have been thinking about an indoor/outdoor thermometer, but haven’t done that yet. As far as a chargeable fan, I’m not sure what the purpose would be since we have a roof exhaust fan and plenty of battery to drive it. we open the windows and turn on the fan, and the camper cools off very quickly. If that’s not enough, we just turn on the A/C.
We have done this same trip but, we started in Arches NP and came west all the way through Zion. That ridge in Esscalante NP was scary but, oh so beautiful. Thanks ❤
My husband and I took that road 4 years ago just 4 months before he passed. It was our second time on highway 12 as we went that way in 1971 on our way to ft Riley Kansas. Both times we only went as far as Boulder and turned around because of snow. My heart was pounding as I drove that ridge lol.
I would NOT want to do that trip in the snow!
Wow I'm getting dizzy watching 😂 beautiful scenery ❤
That music 🎶 😀😃👌👌
You could probably drive anywhere and it would be beautiful! Fun to see your adventure. Thanks for sharing and praying! Oh, Elizabeth your hat is cute!
Great video. Brings back memories from out trip out west❤❤
Thank you! Love it!
I love watching your scenic drives. My husband will be gone 7 years in November and this brings back so many happy memories.
I’m glad for your happy memories!
I am loving this, my husband is gone now and children are with their families. We spent many years with our motor home doing the same
WOW!! Absolutely incredible scenery. What an awesome country we are blessed to live in. Those road drop offs 😳surely give new meaning and particular value to safe travel prayers 🙏🏼🙏🏼. So glad you got to have this spectacular experience and thankful for the opportunity to share in it. God bless you as you continue on as happy campers. 🚚 BTW 1: great travelin' music. BTW 2: I think you just sold a lot of Thrive Life products. 😃
I just sent this out to a friend I met out camping in Quartzite, AZ. She was so perfect for her dream to become a dula. This was foreign to me. Now I totally get it. What brave women we are as we need to be. Welcome William Elliott! Great job everyone. ❤ Congratulations 💐🎉🎊🎉🎊
That’s wonderful! ❤️
Did u get videos mixed up? This isn’t Trent & Allie. I say this because I did that one time. Lol
I loved the “Natural Bridges” and “Hoodoo” when we saw Bryce Canyon in 2008. We stayed at Rubys Inn campground directly behind the store. We didn’t go to this park.
