I tried to start a collection of cats playing fiddles but could not find even one.
(Hey, diddle, diddle The cat and the fiddle, The cow jumped over the moon...)
I did find a few cows jumping over moons and even a dish running away with a spoon but not one fiddling cat. 🤔 I'm glad you are having success with your hobby. 🙂
After the last video, where you were magnet fishing, I asked my husband if he had seen that video. He told me that he had. I asked him if he thought it was cool, he said yes. I said “ Good our kit will be here Friday!” We haven’t gotten to use it yet, but I think it will be fun! Love this area you are in now. We have never been there but hope to see it all soon. Safe travels.
Bought mine last year after watching tons of magnet fishing videos. It is lots of fun. Try dragging it thru the sand where people have sat looking for lost jewelry and around picnic tables too.
In extremely high winds it is a good idea to bring in your slides to reduce your wind resistance and keep the topper above your slide from flapping and getting damaged. You are one of the few people, maybe the only one we watch, who actually pronounces "potable" correctly! Thank you.
That mic handled like a champ. Be safe hoss!!
very impressive.
Agreed
I thought it did really well.
Yes worth every penny $
@MoreToKnowShow it's a awesome mic
I LOVE your videos. So professional and creative. I appreciate the time and thought that goes into them. Being in lock down in a assited living group home, I live vicariously through you on the road. At 75 I planned on going full time but unfortunately health issues changed my plans. So thank you for you channel and efforts. I'm in florida a former cast member, photographer for Mickey himself.
Sound was pretty good outside, under the circumstances.
Dot's pretzels are the best and highly addictive!
Wow...Wyoming is a beautiful state !
Well Wow what a place to stay. Those views were just amazing !! I think your mic worked great and I could easily hear what you were saying. No way I could sleep on a night like that. On your way to the mountains...there was hardly any trees wow. The free poop dump is fantastic and leveling right is genius. Goodwill is my favorite store. You found a gem for sure ! Tomorrow will be great. Happy travels to you. Thanks 👍👍
I love love love watching storms...lots of wind,thunder and lightning, it makes me feel alive....really enjoy storms and I’m not afraid of them since edmonton had a tornado and I helped out with injured people and animals but it was amazing the things Mother Nature can come up with.
Wyoming is windy! Be careful. Once when I took Amtrak through Wyoming, I lost count of how many containers I saw by the tracks that had blown off of the double-stack trains. Even the prong horns were bedded down with their butts turned to the wind! You and Jax take care.
Are used to live in Wyoming now I’m in Arizona and they said the wind does not blow in Wyoming it sucks in Nebraska
The hubby and I rode our motorcycle all around the country and what I remember about Wyoming was the red clay. We came up on road work and the workers tried to "help" by wetting the red clay down so our bike would not get dusty. Red clay when wet is real slick. By the time we got unstuck the bike and I were covered in red clay. Good times.
Even in hurricane force winds, your mic had no distortion.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Really liked the storm time lapse. Enjoy the road and stay safe!
I remember traveling through Wyoming with my folks one time from Yakima. One part of it the sky was almost black with an eerie yellow cast to it, the clouds were so low they looked like they would touch the freeway. Another time, we stayed overnight in Cheyenne, it was in July, well, when we left the motel that morning it was super windy and so cold that there were actually a few flurries of snow, we had to put on warmer clothes. You just never know what the weather will be like there, same with parts of Montana, but they are beautiful states.
I do not like high winds at all, they scare me and I can't sleep if it is during the night.
I don't do heat well at all, my husband does not mind it, but I like it in the 70's. I am from America, but moved to New Zealand when I married a Kiwi. Some parts are very warm and others just right. Our area has temps and climate similar to Santa Barbara California.
Love the Micky Mouse stuff, that blanket will look cute on a wall.
Looking forward to your next video. My husband and I love all of them. Be safe.
Fantastic time lapse on the clouds! Beautiful area to stay overnight but that wind was crazy! Absolutely love that Mickey blanket...what a great price! Great video Eric, I really enjoyed it! Safe travels! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😊
Happy Fathers Day Eric! Hopefully you'll head into some calmer weather.
When you are done flushing your black and grey tank, put in about 2gallons of water with a 1/2 cup of blue dawn dish washing detergent in each tank. While driving it will clean the tanks and the contacts for your gauges. Also do that when you store your RV .
Kudos for riding out that storm. I don't do well in high winds. Nice Mickey blanket too.
always point the front end or tail end into the wind. less surface to overturn you.
Always fun riding shotgun with you guys...
Thanks for the ride👍
That was some scary wind. I would not have slept at that night either. Love the Mickey blanket! Great idea about putting it on the wall behind your shelf.
When my kids were little I used to tell them thunder is not to be afraid of. It’s just the angels bowling in heaven. Lightning on the other hand...you want to stay away from! I actually like to hear the wind on your microphone. We can still hear your voice fine but we feel more like we are actually there with you. Good luck on the trip ahead! Wyoming is such a beautiful state!
Hearing you talk about the wind and mountains in your class A reminds me of when we had our class C . Since buying our Roadtrek , those things effect us very little . Makes the trips much more enjoyable . However on many trips across Montana , Wyoming and South Dakota on motorcycle , the winds can be a bit of a pain in the butt .
Part of travel is the different situations you find. Safe travels and bellyrubs for Jax. Cool video.
That Micky throw looks new. Great find ! Thanks for sharing your journey .
Rain-X, dude...the Pacific Northwest Windshield's best friend. 😆It works on my Ford Explorer, though I think you'd need a whole bottle for Miranda's windshield. Maybe two. 😄
Man you are living the dream
I was in Gillette,WY one night when the thunder was so intense car alarms were going off.
Love the time lapses. Keep them coming.
I love thunderstorm's from inside of course. There's nothing like putting in a good movie snuggling in the coach and listen to the storm.
Nice temp. At least you two made it safe and sound. Thank you for video.
Born and raised in Cheyenne, WY. I call the Wyoming Wind, "Mother Nature's Cosmic Breath". I left, I'm not tough enough to live there anymore. The wind causes me to isolate myself, I now reside in beautiful Bellingham, WA. It's heaven by comparison.
We just recently moved from Montana. We have a 24 ft. Coachman Leprechaun. I pass EVERYTHING while going over passes. The power is great !!
So glad you finally got into cooler temps!
Happy Fathers Day (Jax) dad!
The time lapse photography in Wyoming was amazing.
We drove trucks and Wyoming wind was horrible. We have been through there and seen many trucks lying on their sides. However the worst time we had with winds was coming out of California one night on I-15 around Cajon Pass. The wind was shoving the truck and I found a area to park along with other trucks and such. The wind blasts would hit the truck so hard that I would instinctively hit my brakes though we were parked. I noticed that the truck and trailer in front of my appeared to have one side of his lights out on the back. After it got daylight I realized that their lights were working it was just that that the truck was laying on its side. Once daylight came the wind eased up enough for us to head on out.
The Walmart there in Sheridan is a Great place to part too.
And that is just your Typical welcome to Wyoming rain storm. They come FREQUENTLY
Ammo and pretzels! Love your priorities. Safe travels...
The wind is fierce in Wyoming! It can rain and snow sideways! Great Mickey finds! The case could be used for Disney pins. There was no wind noise with the microphone but I could hear it and see the RV rocking. Safe travels Eric and Jax!
That's just a regular ole wind storm here on the Canadian prairies. It may be the Arctic Current reaching down that far south. At the intersection of the cold current of the north and the warm current of the south, there is usually strong turbulence. North-west winds mean colder weather coming (as the Arctic current moves south), and south-east winds usually means warmer weather coming (as the warm current pushes it's way North). At least, that is what I have observed.
I just came back from the Badlands and Mount Rushmore in South Dakota. Last Thursday night (June 18th) I slept at the campsite in a tent and the temperature dropped down to the 40's so maybe the weather you are talking about is part of the weather I ran into. The wind seemed to be around 30 MPH. Thanks for your videos.
I sure miss the thunderstorms I used to live in Oklahoma and I moved to California and it don't really storming here thanks so much Eric for the videos keep up the good work give Jax some love from me you guys take care and be careful
Those time lapse sky shots are great I love that!
Wow that video time lapse was awesome! You are a professional! Beautiful!
Mic worked great. That throw looks new. If you are ever in Laramie, and have time to kill, Bart's Flea Market is a fun place to stop. When my husband drove truck, he'd stop there every trip thru. We'd leave 25 north of Denver on 287 . It's a really interesting area. Bart's is on 287 just south of 80. Thank you for another interesting visit. And a late congratulations on the purchase of your adorable home. Jax seems to like the space. He's such a laid back cat. Except when you interrupt his bodily functions😁😸
OMG, that Mike is killin it
Beautiful place.
Thank you for bringing us along Eric.
Great video.
Weather weather
I had got caught in a flash flood when I lived in North Dakota. I saw a wall of black clouds, started to drive home, the rain hit (On) so I pulled over (could barely see) in front of a tavern but when the rain stopped (Off) I found myself in an intersection about 50 feet from where I parked. I didn't hear any splashing, just the torrent of rain hitting my car (1972 Vega).
Yep. My van is parked in them thar mountains and LOVIN' the cool weather!!!
After watching your videos for the past 5 or 6 years I bought my first rv today. Thanks for the inspiration Eric!!
Totally awesomeness! Congrats!
Loved the sunset 🌇 Looked like a nice rv spot you had
Cool time lapse of the clouds!! xoxo Jax :)
That spot was perfect for weather watching!
It's very dry in NH, hope we get some of that rain.
I love Montana - big sky country!
Got stuck in a snow storm in cheyenne wy in june a few years ago. Crazy weather there. Be safe
Hey Eric and Jax, safe travels thanks for sharing. 60mph winds too much for me in an rv.
this is so much cooler than the 90's that we are having...I think we should head North soon
Score on that Mickey fleece throw... thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing... stay safe
The Mickey Fleece Priceless!
Enjoyed this, thanks Eric.
Beautiful part of the country. Where I wish i was. Tks
Hey Eric. I turned on my hotspot and i saw nomadic fanatic wifi. i walked over to your rv you're all sealed in. must be doing some video work. I waved at your cameras....
looks like your airing out your batteries? haha. I'm in #4 way in the back. Just wanted to say hi and show you a pic with your class c from a couple years ago at chehalis walmart...
happy travels..
Jerry
Jerry! Come on back and say hi! I got a magnet and a sticker. I'll be up another hour editing. :)
I love the sound of rain on a roof!!
I'm a driver, I use a product from 99cent store for my windshield.
It's the gallon windex refill, not really windex but it works amazing. Just don't dilute it. Hope this helps.
I used to make that run about once a month when I lived in Sheridan WY. I would head to Billings Montana and load up on stuff that wasn't too available in Sheridan. Keep having fun.
Sweet Mickey blanket find. Goodwill has always been a great place for bargains. Throughout the years I’ve found many a brand new clothing item along with a delightful cookbook to add to my limited collection. Also a great place to stock up on candles for hurricane season or simply to add that soft evening glow to one’s camper. 🚌
I love your upbeat attitude. Good video.
Ha Ha, gotta love our Wyoming wind.
I believe the purple colored windshield wiper fluid will do wonders with removing the bug carcass. Don't know why.
That was a huge Goodwill. And love the Mickey throw.
That scenery was AWESOME!!👍😉
Perfect music with that Wyoming storm. Loved it!
I go to Goodwill all the time. Find amazing things for the house there. I’ve also found great clothing there, too. In Florida. I wish it was 52 degrees here.
The time lapse was awesome.
The tint looks good on RV
I would definitely hate driving in that area with my RV! I-40 is always like that too. But to clear up a comment you made - hurricane force winds are 74mph+ not 60s. Still nothing to disregard!! I have had less gust blow my pool umbrellas into the pool! Stay safe!!
Wow, the scenery and weather in this!!
Love Wyoming, want to move to Jackson area some day. I love those snow capped Teton Mountains, fresh air, clean water, nature, wildlife, pine trees, lots of snow, and cool weather year round. God's country.
Thanks for taking us inside the Good Will Thrift Store. I go once a week for the senior discount day. That Mickey Blanket is awesome! My kitties say "hi" to Jax!
Great video, glad you are out and about again...
Love those wild storms - thx for fillming it all and sharing! And sound was great.
Looking forward to three lakes meeting you in the fall. 🤩
Glad you got the cooler temperatures y'all take care and be safe and we'll see you soon
Lol, Miranda's going to be full of Mickey collectables by the time you make it back to basecamp. Great buy on the blanket! Wow, those winds were crazy. I could hear them, and yhe rain. Be safe. 😊👍
🌼 Nice mic!!! WhooHoo on those cooler temps! That overnight in Wyoming - it looked like you were sitting on the top of the world! I'm so glad you didn't get blown off!!! Thanks for taking me along!
The time lapse was off the charts! ❤️
It seems like it is always windy in the west, especially in an RV. Beautiful there. 💕
Time lapse was awesome. Wind and Wyoming is a normal day. Parking on top of the hill made the wind worse.
Right up my alley all the stops at Thrift Stores. :) lol. Cute Mickey throw blanket BTW! I'm itching to get back into thrifting here in IL. I want to go back to Jacksonville GW outlet so bad, but that county Morgan, has way too many COVID cases for me to feel comfortable going to the Bins there. Oh well, I've way too busy doing all the work for Ebay & Poshmark listings with all the stuff I've already thrifted. Yep I'm a thriftaholic !
Rain water blowing all under my hood and I knew that was doing my motor good.
I absolutely love thunder storms. Great Video!
53 degrees what a dream to our heat and humidity of TX. Lucky You !! Can't wait to hunt the 70's.... someday....
Happy Mickey hunting. Take care and enjoy
What a BEAUTIFUL place to stay... crazy winds though... 👋🏼😎
The green LED lighting is really cool looking!
You are getting into my favorite part of the country now. From there and west is all what I love.
I'm watching your storm while there is a storm going on at my place too!! What a beautiful sunset you got to see!
So excited to see Wyoming and Montana! Thank you! Btw I love goodwill shopping! Lol I love to hit them when I vacation.
