Elizabeth you walking to the lake without your walker, wow, I was impressed, you look great!! Of course I have nominated you for the “best smile” I have ever seen, it lights up our world 🌎 God bless you always 🙏❤️
Enjoyed this. I camped in a box (truck) with my husband while flea marketing on weekends. No showers. We were so dirty at the end of the weekend. At night, I had a pail for potty and a flashlight or gaslight. It worked. I cooked outside or the ledge during the day.
Wakulla Springs (pronounced sort of like Wa kuhl a) was a popular destination for Easter Sunday when I was growing up in Florida. The water is freezing cold. It is refreshing, but takes your breath away going in. Enjoy your trip. Kindness, Teresa
I worked with a guy who drove a thousand miles and got a blood clot in his leg. He was 60ish and a doctor so he should have known better. You definitely need to take time and move around. I'm excited to see what you do with your camper!
Camper is spacious! Nice conversion Bill. We are set up in a Toyota Sienna for sleeping. Our beds unfold from chairs so if weather is not cooperating we have a comfortable lounging area. We've been campers for many years but at our ages no longer find comfort in a tent. We have everything to set up a nice outdoor space with all the gear. Our son is in N.Carolina in the Navy so we intend to do a road trip soon
Don’t keep putting it off. Just jump in head first and go if u don’t just say hey let’s go and now u can do a first trip and yes u will notice what u need to do different befor spending a lot of money just to make changes. We only have x amount of days left so live today as it could b your last one
Neither of us can travel more than a few hours at a time so our limitations have to be accounted for. So planned stops. Figure out the "wheres". @@randywilson6869
I can see how much you two will enjoy tooting around in your new camper once its completed. There is plenty of room in that truck. Looks like such fun!
Florida has some very beautiful places to see that isn’t the beach. I love living here. Manatees are peaceful, lovely creatures. I was lucky enough to be kayaking with them swimming right by my side. It was amazing. Love your channel! ♥️
Can’t wait to see the camper finished. It’s great that you are taking your time figuring out what you need to build to make it comfortable and practical.
I use that term all the time! I'm 80 and there are 5 other ladies in our church that are turning 80 this year.And I have used that term A.G.E for at least five years. I've even given it an acronym for the ladies. My friend lives near the park. And has told me how much they enjoy day trips there. Have a fun trip.
Oh I’m sooooo happy you are both well enough to start traveling again!!! BTW, how do they keep the alligators out of the swimming area? Have an AWESOME trip and be safe/well!!! 💕❤️💕
You two are amazing! A merry heart is good like a medicine and you two are good medicine! Thank you so much for taking us on your journey. I am challenged and motivated by your improvisational camping. God bless you! 💕🙏🏼🤗
I really want to thank you for your videos. this one I love because it really shows the beginning of the box camper and it just looks strong. Now this I would make into a camper... you have taught me so much, I love the app for finding parks etc. and that you actually call ahead! What a blessing you have been. God Bless you on all your journey's. Thank you again. Stay safe
Living in the woods most of my life, I feel that way about deer and bear. They are just a nuisance. The deer eat all your roses, and the bear won't stay out of your trash cans!
I am so proud of you both eating healthy, you just put years onto your lives. As you lose weight, you will see any ailments you have disappear. I was wondering how long it would take you to get on the road. Anxious to see the build out.
We are getting a Buc-ee's here in Amarillo, Texas. It's grand opening is scheduled for February 2025. We are so excited!! Bill and Elizabeth get in that box truck and come see northwest Texas!!! Really enjoy your videos.
Also I enjoyed your video on your 1st trip in your camper van. Bill, you are so imaginative and creative. Safe travels. Elizabeth, you look great and you can see just how much you are enjoying this adventure.
Bill n Elizabeth, That was some serious cooking 🍳 taking place inside the camper. Like you, we don't travel for more than five or six hours at time. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. (I hope I'm not misapplying the verse)😊 You be blessed!❤
Elizabeth take Magnesium for leg cramping. It really helps. *I also take Hylands Leg Cramp quick desolving tablets when a cramp hits me. There are so many types of Magnesium - Taurate, gycinate, citrate etc. Check and see which one is better for your cramps. Drinking lots of water is also helpful. I'm sure you know that. I was also told to use Celtic sea salt for the minerals which is good for repairing bones. Love you both and your videos. Thank you for sharing.
I have to take magnesium otherwise I would be crippled with pain. If I get a cramp I take several magnesium right away and grab my heating pad and of course pray and pray for relief!
They should make an app. “Find my car!” I love it to find my phone! They have one, yeah! Years ago my husband and I slept in the back of our cattle truck! We froze because underneath the cold air got to us!
Adventure in a box!! 😄🥰🤣 It looks like you had a fun time, and wow, what a great looking breakfast!!! Quick, easy, hardly any cleanup! Love it!! Great video Bill and Elizabeth, we love you guys!!!
Elizabeth and Bill, I have been a long time silent viewer of your channel. Can I just say that I absolutely adore you both and your love for each other. Seeing you both sitting in the camper truck in the Walmart parking lot, you both look so young, refreshed and energized for your travels. Elizabeth, have you considered putting magnets on the metal wall behind the seats of the truck? I loved the magnet “Nothing is lost unless Mom can’t find it!” God bless you both ❤❤
It seems like a good idea traveling with no real set up yet. This way you can get a feel for how you would like things to work permanently. Happy Trails!
I love Wakulla Springs!❤ My grandkids love to go there when they visit! And the boat ride never disappoints. I love how the outdoor temp. can be 100 degrees in the summer, while the spring water is FREEZING!
Thanks for showing us some of the stops. Never been to Buc ees but now I see what people are talking about. So you left Bass Pro Shops with some goodies but no drip coffee maker? LOL. That's how those things usually work. Enjoy your Thrive speaking engagement.
I've been there, many years ago, and loved it! The glass bottom boats made seeing the underwater critters a joy! You'll love it when you can take a tour. Try to go in late spring or early summer when you can see more of the beautiful vegetation along the shore and more birds. Safe travels! ✌️💖🙏🙌🇺🇲🤜
Hi Guys, we just found your channel recently! We think you both ROCK! Elizabeth is always smiling. Makes us admire her so much more. Wanna be more like her. Live Simply, Live Free! Great motto. We always say, Less is More! What do you guys think? Would love to hang out with you guys. Anytime your in NY just say the word! Joan & Dennis from NY
Thanks for the pointers in reconstituting the Thrive sausage. I have several cans in my emergency preparedness. I also love packing my home canned meats when van camping. If I were living in an RV full time, dehydrated and freeze dried is the route to go. No refrigeration, space saver, and light-weight. Welcome to Texas!
I got so excited when you found the hat with the LOTR quote. LOTR was always one of our favorite things to talk about! This really put a smile on my face. :) I love seeing your adventures!
I do enjoy remembering us talk about the Lord of the Rings. 🥰 I saw that same quote on two different vehicles within the next few days. It was amazing! 😄
Ruth here, l love Bass Pro shops, in Rossford Ohio, they have a HUGEV fireplace right where you came in with some recliners to sit, and a lot of antiques on the wall. they have an old pickup outside as you walk in, they do not have any advertisement so you have to know where the store is to find, yet it's pretty busy, l f you prop your spoon up inside the pan, prop it against the side right where the pot's handle is, the spoon's handle will nor get as hot.
Elizabeth you made me laugh. After seeing that alligator the last thing I would want to do is swim in that water! That's downright crae crae girl! 😂 Love how it's not at all set up as camper but you are having a fun adventure anyway! Go Bill and Elizabeth! Go! 😊🎉❤
Wakulla Springs is amazing! I live close by and go often. The water is cold but attracts a lot of manatees in the winter. Thanks for sharing
Elizabeth you walking to the lake without your walker, wow, I was impressed, you look great!! Of course I have nominated you for the “best smile” I have ever seen, it lights up our world 🌎 God bless you always 🙏❤️
So glad to be part of the first "Adventure in a Box" video. 😊
It was awesome. 😊
Wakulla springs is not very far from where I live, beautiful place, enjoy
I hope to re-watch this again❤
You feel like extended Family.
❤❤❤🥰🕊
Thanks

Elizabeth, you got the hat! 🧢 Loved the easy to understand 10 commandments. ❤
😁
Yeah, wow. When you put it in plan English how can anyone be against it?
What a fun trip! Thanks for sharing your first trip in your camper. 🚚
Elizabeth is very smart she solved my tougue twister quick with gas pump count
Wakulla Springs (pronounced sort of like Wa kuhl a) was a popular destination for Easter Sunday when I was growing up in Florida. The water is freezing cold. It is refreshing, but takes your breath away going in. Enjoy your trip. Kindness, Teresa
Yup, the water is 70 degrees year round.
You two are so adventurous, enjoy your box camper truck. Happy and safe travels. Looking forward to seeing the renovation of the truck.
Thank you for bringing us along on your trip.
I worked with a guy who drove a thousand miles and got a blood clot in his leg. He was 60ish and a doctor so he should have known better. You definitely need to take time and move around.
I'm excited to see what you do with your camper!
Thank you for taking us on a tour. It was beautiful
We live close to Wakulla Springs. It’s a cool (literally) place to go even in the summer heat. Enjoy.
I HAD SO MUCH FUN ON YOUR TRIP!!! YOU CRACKED ME UP TODAY!!! ❤

I am Texan but it is clear why so many good people like Bill & Elizabeth moved there part-time or permanently. 💕
Thanks for taking us along! 🚚 It certainly was an informative and interesting trip. Continued travel mercies Bill & Elizabeth.
I loved this video thank you for sharing this was great !❤
Can’t wait to see the camper finished. It’s great that you are taking your time figuring out what you need to build to make it comfortable and practical.
Thank you for sharing with us. I needed this❤
God Bless you both❤❤❤🙏👑🌟💐💐💐🕊🤗

It doesn’t have to be perfect to start out with just fix it up enough to be comfortable and go with it!
Thanks for taking us along with you!! It was wonderful and so enjoyable. ❤️❤️🙏🙏❤️❤️
👍🤩💝Awesome. Thanks for sharing your journey. 💝
I loved going on this trip w you guys! If id been there, id have bought Eluzabeth that gator cuddle stuffed animal, she looked so cute hugging it
Oh I’m sooooo happy you are both well enough to start traveling again!!! BTW, how do they keep the alligators out of the swimming area? Have an AWESOME trip and be safe/well!!! 💕❤️💕
They don’t like hanging out with the humans
I don't know, but swimmers and alligators together are a common occurrence.
@@LiveSimpleLiveFree Maybe I’m thinking of crocodiles?
You two are amazing! A merry heart is good like a medicine and you two are good medicine! Thank you so much for taking us on your journey. I am challenged and motivated by your improvisational camping. God bless you! 💕🙏🏼🤗

Awesome, thank you!
So glad I got to travel along with y'all. Safe travels..
Nice trip. Here in S. Florida 30+ years and I still don't get excited about alligators. Another attack recently.
Living in the woods most of my life, I feel that way about deer and bear. They are just a nuisance. The deer eat all your roses, and the bear won't stay out of your trash cans!
and to think they go swimming in that water, that’s crazy!
thanks for taking us all along…thoroughly enjoyed it…have fun and be safe🌺
Thanks for sharing I appreciate your kindness
Wow!! Walmart, Buc-ee's, Bass Pro. My favorites. Nothing wrong with the clutter in your vehicle. It's certain to bring about some inventive ideas 💡
Elizabeth!! First time I notice you walking in awhile...you look great!!!! Your mobility is awesome!!! Great video!
So nice to see the plants in bloom.
We got up to 2ft of snow this morning.
😢 we were looking for the crocus to come up not but a few days ago.
🌬🌬🌬❄❄❄
Love the music you chose to exemplify the silhouetted strangely shaped, tree stumps. Nice bit of booking information included. Thanks.😊

I loved your "mis-speak" Elizabeth. "Silver Slippers" sounds so much more relaxing than Siver Sneakers. LOL
Hey thanks for this video. We’ll be doing that route in reverse soon!
Also I enjoyed your video on your 1st trip in your camper van. Bill, you are so imaginative and creative. Safe travels. Elizabeth, you look great and you can see just how much you are enjoying this adventure.
I love y’all’s adventure attitude. My Mom’s favorite word was improvise. Improvising makes adventure possible.
Bill n Elizabeth, That was some serious cooking 🍳 taking place inside the camper. Like you, we don't travel for more than five or six hours at time. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. (I hope I'm not misapplying the verse)😊
You be blessed!❤
Definitely a different spin on that verse...I like it.
@@debbywebby7234 😊
Loving the journey. I'm glad you took a picture with the Buccees Beaver. It's a tradition here in the south.❤❤❤
Thank you for showing me the inside of Buc-eyes. My kids tell me all about it, first time I’ve seen the inside. Thanks again.
Elizabeth take Magnesium for leg cramping. It really helps. *I also take Hylands Leg Cramp quick desolving tablets when a cramp hits me.

I have to take magnesium otherwise I would be crippled with pain. If I get a cramp I take several magnesium right away and grab my heating pad and of course pray and pray for relief!
She DOES take magnesium already.
For me, I usually drink about 2 cups of warm water and that works for me within a few minutes.
@@LiveSimpleLiveFree I don’t think that person knew that. They were just trying to be helpful
How fun!💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing 😊you both made camping in a box truck look easy and fun 😊
Love your camper beginnings 👍
Love how adventurous you two are. Thanks so much for sharing. Not sure I could do what you do.....love how you both smile your way through.
Trucks are not allowed at Buc-ees….its like a gas station amusement park ! They have THE BEST bathrooms!
I love my camp rocker that I use it as my indoor rocker just add a pillow .
What a wonderful adventure for you both. Thank you for sharing.
This was great. Thanks for taking us along.
How fun of a trip for you!! ❤ hugs from Michigan!!!
They should make an app. “Find my car!” I love it to find my phone! They have one, yeah! Years ago my husband and I slept in the back of our cattle truck! We froze because underneath the cold air got to us!
You two travel as I like to do. Stopping as points of interest present themselves. I was so hoping you bought that stuffed 'gator!
THANKS You guys! '
Glad to see you both having such a wonderful time! Bill looks like he's in his element! Blessings to you both!
Love it. God bless you.
Would you guys host a meet up with some vetted followers? Everyone brings their own THRIVE LIFE, camper, good spirit. So cool to watch your trip.
I have spent many nights in a walmart parking lot when I was transporting RV's
Looks like you have plenty of company😊❤
I live in Texas and I've never been to a Buckees. This is the first time I've seen inside of one lol. Looks fun!
Adventure in a box!! 😄🥰🤣 It looks like you had a fun time, and wow, what a great looking breakfast!!! Quick, easy, hardly any cleanup! Love it!! Great video Bill and Elizabeth, we love you guys!!!
Elizabeth looks cool with her new hat and her sun glasses! What a fun trip and fun store!
What fun❤
Hello Bill & Elizabeth,thank you for taking us along.Take care & have a safe trip.❤️
I can’t wait to see the completed camper truck!
Me too! 😀
You guys passed within a mile of my house in Louisiana!😍
That is such a a beautiful place.my husband and I go there off and on . we don't live far from there. enjoy
Jennings Louisiana, that's where my mother's family is from .... love you guys.
I’ve been using my 2 burner Coleman stove for at least 12 years. Love it especially when I use my cast iron skillet.
You had a very good reason for eating so many eggs. I had that same reason about a week ago. LOL I ate 5 scrambled eggs.
What fun!
I’m looking forward to more “Adventures in a Box”🤭
Prayers for travel mercies🙏

Absolutely love how you two enjoy life and each other.
Suggested this when y’all first moved down I’m so happy yall finally got to enjoy this beautiful place ❤
I went to Wakulla Springs last year. It's so nice. I went in the water and it cracks me up people think it's cold. It was so nice. I want to go back.
