I just want to you to know how much comfort you and Pippa have given me. I lost both my dogs very recently and I so appreciate your lifestyle with Pippa. I hope to be joining you soon in a similar lifestyle. I hope to find a dog that needs a home and will appreciate this lifestyle. You are my hero.
Pro tip- adopt a semi-older dog! When I rescued my girl she was around 8 (?) and already past that hyper, pee-everywhere puppy phase. 😂 She is super mellow and just goes with the flow. My little old lady. She is my soulmate. 🐕 best of luck to you and your journey! ❤️
I am sorry for your loss-there is no greater love on earth than a dog. May God bless you with a new travel companion Pam. I hope to take my furbabies ashes back to Texas someday-maybe we will have the pleasure of meeting on the road someday 🙏✌🌎💞
I had a pop up camper years ago and it was lots of fun. Mine had a folding wall for a bathroom with cassette toilet and a shower. I loved it. You have given yourself lots more living space for a cheap price and I wish you all the success in the world with your new abode.
You shouldn't let people get you down. It takes time to get in order. As for an emergency you been on the road more then anyone else. You take care of yourself and your puppy. Love your videos girl.
The 45 minutes it takes to break the camper down looks totally worth the improvement to your lifestyle. I appreciate your courage to live the life you love!
Actually, I was thinking that that didn’t take very long at all to put down. It is really cool that it’s just like a big puzzle, like you said! I wanted to say, too, that I suffer from clinical depression, too, of which meds help out tremendously for me, so I understand what those depression cycles you were talking about in another video are like. Know that every time I watch one of your videos, I send up a prayer for you and Pippa.
I remember those days very well from when I had my pop-up camper. But I absolutely loved it and had many great memories. Thought you really did a great job and I thought Pippa was adorable looking out the window. 👍🏻❤️🤩🐾
I used a driveway marker, small pole with red reflector, stick the pole behind the hitch ball. You will be able to see it when backing up the car alone. Thing is light weight and cheap but makes hitching up alone easier.
Brilliant! And if you had something to attach to the car hitch, just maneuver until they meet. Though Brooke seems like the sort of person who might get pretty skilled doing this wo/helper tools. There are also cheap back-up cameras that attach to license plates now.
Takes me back to being a kid! I used to put up and take down our 1972 Lionel Tent Trailer on our family trips. When we were home during the summer, I practically lived in that old tent trailer. I slept in it all summer. Just realized why I'm addicted to RVs now! lol!
Idk why, but you just always make my day better. You and the pup just out there doing life. While I’m trapped at my desk and my biggest reprieve is the bouncy ball I use as a chair 🥸
Very nice job on taking that down. It would probably take me 20 times of doing it over and over to learn it and be that fast! 30 or 45 min is totally worth it to have a nice cozy place to hang out in nature!
You did great! Who cares what anyone else thinks about how you take care of your home and how long it takes you to pack it up to move ! It looks cozy and it makes you and Pippa happy! Like I said I think it is great! Enjoy and safe travels!
Thanks for sharing the pack up process. That looks really doable even for an old lady like me. Love that it's so compact and 45 min. Is not a long pack up time at all. I'm really impressed with your rig. Way easier thana tent and no worse than my trailer. Getting my 3 dogs out of the rv and into my truck probably takes as much time as I spend packing everything else up! 👍😁you likely will have time to pack up in most emergencies. Over the yrs. I've been run out by fires, and storm. Managed to pack up, hitch up and roll each time.
It’s easier to miss living in a house or apartment, but I think Brooke’s journey shows it so well. How EVERYTHING has a cost and a benefit. What is she getting for this extra time, energy, and money. But you also have to pay close attention. It’s a great life lesson to keep in mind as you go through life. Only the person can decide if it’s worth it. Even that “free” coffee mug is not really free if it just clutters up one’s space and you never use it. This seems like a great trade off for the extra space. But Brooke being Brooke, I’m sure she’ll give a smart and honest assessment as time goes on - if she decides to continues to bring folks along on her life’s adventure. Go Brooke and Pippa!
I'm so proud of your change of lifestyle. I wish I could do the same with my life but I have too many health problems. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for the video! I always wondered how these broke down. And love Pippa at the end with the ears blowing in the wind. Too stinking cute. ❤️ Love your videos. I really enjoy them.
45 min is awesome for breakdown of a popup with one person Brooke. Love your channel and how you show all the REAL life stuff ( good, bad and ugly! Lol)
We used to have a pop up. You sure did it better than we ever did! Give yourself a Pat on the back!! I totally loved the end with Pippa and her ears flapping in the wind! Too cute! ❤️❤️ Happy Camping and safe travels!!
How fun! Ive learned something today. Pippa is the Mona Lisa. She smiles on the inside. Lol. That makes my day, now i feel like im off to find my next adventurous spot...but im getting ready to work. I cant wait till im back out there..ill live it through these videos till then. Thank you.
So satisfying when everything fits together like a puzzle…… love love this camper - my aunt and uncle used to have one of these, great memories, great function- especially in your hands
You did a great job and pretty fast in my book! It would probably take me hours to do that (cuz I’m old and back is bad.) Can’t wait to see your next camp location.
I think people over state the difficulty of tent campers. Any trailer is a pain to hook up and level etc. With the Pop Up you just have the extra part of shoving in the beds and popping it down as in a regular tow behind you still have to secure everything. Pippa was not much of a help though that Lazy Dog 😀
The last comment actually confused me. Is there actually anyone who imagines in an emergency you would do anything other than grab Pippa and drive off leaving everything else behind? I know that’s what I would do.
I always wondered how that folded up, I never would have imagined that the bed platforms weren’t on sliders, lol, very cool, it’s way less intimidating than I thought it would be!
I keep the "bedroom" poles attached to the swing-out part and use them to bring that part in. That way, I don't have to climb on the bed or get "buried" in the canvas.
You crack me up. I can't believe how fast your channel has grown. I guess the secrets out. Lol. You two make my day. Thanks for sharing and safe travels. 😊
That's great that you have a crank to raise and lower the top. Ours you had to push the rails in. My 6 foot husband had to do that part. I love this for you. Enjoy.
So fun! It doesn't look like such a long time. My parents used to have a pull-type camper and I was surprised how long they would take to secure everything and get ready to move it. haha I love your videos.
Pippa🐶(so adorable🤗💕),was not budging from that bed🛏-especially for clean-up! Not one bit!!🤭😂That is so awesome that you're able to take down the camper!Take care, and you do you!👍🤗
I think you did a speedy job!! Watching u blossom in this pop up camper sparks such interest I have in trying it out also. Thank you for the inspiration!
Great information for viewers like me who have no idea how those popup campers work. But, so many people use them and I am happy that you are liking yours and that everything works well for you. Looks good to me. You and Pippa are the cutest. I hope to see more of your adventures away from your car and camper; water (boating?), hiking, shopping, etc.
A huge thank you, I've been waiting for this video. You make it look so easy, I think you're doing such a great job and it's amazing to see how long it really takes half hour to 45 minutes is not bad. And you back to that car right on to that hitch. I'm very impressed. Love our girl pips, don't kid yourself she knows exactly what's going on. Thank you again you're an amazing teacher. Can't wait for the next video ..
That was great. I had no idea that there are these slide out platforms on the sides. Don’t worry about the hateful people. They apparently don’t have a life and spend it on RUclips criticizing everyone. Keep doing what you love. You’re so brave. I have my CR-V decked out for car camping and never did take it out for longer than overnight. Good work! Love your videos and you sweet Pippa.
I thought your take down was very fast. We had a pop up camper that we fixed up and used once. Because it took us waaayyy longer to take it down and put up, so we sold it. We were used to class C motorhome 's 😂. You're doing great Brooke! God bless you!
Hi Brooke if you come across a Tractor Supply in your travels they have a trailer line up system . One goes on your car hitch and other on trailer you back up and when the balls touch your golden 😊 They will know if you describe what you want. Looks like two tennis balls on a stick they are magnetic. I hook my horse trailer up all the time. You will love them. Google trailer line up. It will show what they look like. Also Harbor Freight has them.
I just want to you to know how much comfort you and Pippa have given me. I lost both my dogs very recently and I so appreciate your lifestyle with Pippa. I hope to be joining you soon in a similar lifestyle. I hope to find a dog that needs a home and will appreciate this lifestyle. You are my hero.
You can do it ❤️
Pro tip- adopt a semi-older dog! When I rescued my girl she was around 8 (?) and already past that hyper, pee-everywhere puppy phase. 😂 She is super mellow and just goes with the flow. My little old lady. She is my soulmate. 🐕 best of luck to you and your journey! ❤️
Aww I just lost my 12 year old Newfoundland dog. I feel ya
Plenty of needy doggies out there that need a loving adopter. My 3 are all pound puppies and fulltime RVers along with me. You will do great.
I am sorry for your loss-there is no greater love on earth than a dog. May God bless you with a new travel companion Pam. I hope to take my furbabies ashes back to Texas someday-maybe we will have the pleasure of meeting on the road someday 🙏✌🌎💞

I don’t know how you do this by yourself. I admire you!

We used to have an identical camper, and it took my husband and 4 sons about that long to get everything packed up. You did good!
You are so confident and capable....and Pippa has the best roommate ❤
You and Pippa make me so happy. I love watching your journey. So glad I came across your channel.
Idk why, but you just always make my day better. You and the pup just out there doing life. While I’m trapped at my desk and my biggest reprieve is the bouncy ball I use as a chair 🥸
IT is awesome that you and Pippa now have more space to stretch out! I love seeing PRECIOUS PIPPA!!!! 🐾💗🐾 Pets make the BEST companions!!!!
Very nice job on taking that down. It would probably take me 20 times of doing it over and over to learn it and be that fast! 30 or 45 min is totally worth it to have a nice cozy place to hang out in nature!
Love your setup - the pop-up has such nice windows! Thanks for the video - always nice to see you and Pippa.
You did great! Who cares what anyone else thinks about how you take care of your home and how long it takes you to pack it up to move ! It looks cozy and it makes you and Pippa happy! Like I said I think it is great! Enjoy and safe travels!

Thanks for sharing how you break down the camper Pippa and Brooke :) You guys are awesome!!!
It’s easier to miss living in a house or apartment, but I think Brooke’s journey shows it so well. How EVERYTHING has a cost and a benefit. What is she getting for this extra time, energy, and money.

I'm so proud of your change of lifestyle. I wish I could do the same with my life but I have too many health problems. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for the video! I always wondered how these broke down. And love Pippa at the end with the ears blowing in the wind. Too stinking cute. ❤️ Love your videos. I really enjoy them.
I LOVE that you're not so attached to the camper/stuff as to risk your n Pippa life in an emergency! Smart woman.
You’re the best! I would be struggling to pack up the camper all by myself.❤️
I remember doing all that when we had a pop up.
You're doing great!
Just a Tip for you to know, put a little bit of axal grease on the ball on the Hitch. It will keep it from rusting and squeaking. Have fun 😊
I have always wondered how they went down. Thank you!
Glad this works for you and Pippa. Also, great insight to just leave the pop up if needed. God bless your travels.
45 min is awesome for breakdown of a popup with one person Brooke. Love your channel and how you show all the REAL life stuff ( good, bad and ugly! Lol)
You did great. It used to take that long with three of us. Folding up the canvas under the roof is the worst. Be proud of the great job you did.
We used to have a pop up. You sure did it better than we ever did! Give yourself a Pat on the back!! I totally loved the end with Pippa and her ears flapping in the wind! Too cute! ❤️❤️ Happy Camping and safe travels!!
How fun! Ive learned something today. Pippa is the Mona Lisa. She smiles on the inside. Lol. That makes my day, now i feel like im off to find my next adventurous spot...but im getting ready to work. I cant wait till im back out there..ill live it through these videos till then. Thank you.
You are totally a delightful soul. You do you and are GREAT!
You’ve got this!!!! It would take me just as long to break camp and I was in a van. Loving Pippa’s ears lol safe travels 🙏🏽
So satisfying when everything fits together like a puzzle…… love love this camper - my aunt and uncle used to have one of these, great memories, great function- especially in your hands

Thank you so much for showing how a pop-up camper gets put away. I have never seen this. Sweet PIPPA! Happy travels!
You and Pippa are great. Love all your videos!!! Love the ending with her little face sticking out the window and eats blowing in the wind.
Love your channel and like how you are living life to the fullest. Kudos to you and your fur baby
The last comment actually confused me. Is there actually anyone who imagines in an emergency you would do anything other than grab Pippa and drive off leaving everything else behind? I know that’s what I would do.
I'm a new(er) subscriber, and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. Thank you!
You did a great job! Having the comforts you enjoy is well worth the effort! Love the new rig👍
Great to plan for emergencies ahead of time - grab Pippa and go is the way I would do it too!
I always wondered how that folded up, I never would have imagined that the bed platforms weren’t on sliders, lol, very cool, it’s way less intimidating than I thought it would be!
I keep the "bedroom" poles attached to the swing-out part and use them to bring that part in. That way, I don't have to climb on the bed or get "buried" in the canvas.

Wow, ladybug 🐞 you did wonderful job taking down your camper. Thank you 🙏 for sharing your daily videos. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.
That's great that you have a crank to raise and lower the top. Ours you had to push the rails in. My 6 foot husband had to do that part. I love this for you. Enjoy.
So fun! It doesn't look like such a long time. My parents used to have a pull-type camper and I was surprised how long they would take to secure everything and get ready to move it. haha I love your videos.
I never even thought of that emergency thing. That totally makes sense. This was a great video. Thank you.
i’m in a bad living situation and trying to live like this! so glad i found you! or that you found me!
Tent trailers are wonderful! Glad you and Pippa are enjoying yours ❤️
Thanks for showing how you get the pop-up ready for travel. I had no clue how that was done. Happy cramping.
Watching this makes me want to get a little camper.
Love your videos!
You got it done a lot quicker than I would have lol. Always enjoy your videos.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I love the pop up. You and Pippa ROCK!
Pippa🐶(so adorable🤗💕),was not budging from that bed🛏-especially for clean-up! Not one bit!!🤭😂That is so awesome that you're able to take down the camper!Take care, and you do you!👍🤗
Lol Pippa is not an active participant on travel days 😂
I think you did a speedy job!! Watching u blossom in this pop up camper sparks such interest I have in trying it out also. Thank you for the inspiration!
Great job. Omg I just love Pippa soooo adorable
WOW! I seems like a lot of work…then again I’m 67 and too much work for me. You are amazing. Keep bringing us such great content!
Very cool!! That's how long it takes me to tear down my campsite. Not too bad!!! Thanks for sharing.
Nicely done. It does get faster the more you move. Good job 👏
Love pop ups. They are really worth the put up and take down
Very interesting. Always thought pop ups were horrible. You showed its nice.
So cool. It looks fairly easy. It’s worth the 30 40 minutes. Be safe.
I love your little camper you seem very happy
Great information for viewers like me who have no idea how those popup campers work. But, so many people use them and I am happy that you are liking yours and that everything works well for you. Looks good to me. You and Pippa are the cutest. I hope to see more of your adventures away from your car and camper; water (boating?), hiking, shopping, etc.
Wow! I am so impressed! I never saw one being closed! Amazing job! Thank you for sharing
So clever how it all goes together - I’ve been trying to figure out how it worked so thank you for showing us.
AweSome! I have seen tent setups that take longer to put up and take down. What a wonderful life! Thanks!
A huge thank you, I've been waiting for this video. You make it look so easy, I think you're doing such a great job and it's amazing to see how long it really takes half hour to 45 minutes is not bad. And you back to that car right on to that hitch. I'm very impressed. Love our girl pips, don't kid yourself she knows exactly what's going on. Thank you again you're an amazing teacher. Can't wait for the next video ..
You did great. I think that was quite fast. Yes, definitely hop in the car & go in an emergency. Safe travels, see you in the next vlog!!
What an exciting day!! Enjoy your new space
That was great. I had no idea that there are these slide out platforms on the sides. Don’t worry about the hateful people. They apparently don’t have a life and spend it on RUclips criticizing everyone. Keep doing what you love. You’re so brave. I have my CR-V decked out for car camping and never did take it out for longer than overnight. Good work! Love your videos and you sweet Pippa.
I’m glad you’re making videos it makes me smile.
I think it didn’t take long really and you were quite organised. I’m impressed!
You'll get faster as you do it over time, probably 30 mins or less for one person. You're not that far off! ❤️
I can usually do it in 30 min if I’m not filming and not running around setting up each shot
I had looked at a pop up but thought if I only slept on one side, it would tip over. but you having one makes it look ok
Lol. No it wouldn't tip over. I have one. There are supports on each side and I bet you don't weigh more than the beds. ☺️
@@spicybrown75 I am overweight
You are doing great! We had extra support built into our bunks, so they were really heavy.
Hi! I see the teepees here at the end! Love this!😊 I had to rewind to make sure! Pippa is just cute!!
Love your pop-up. I think you did well! Great timing! 👏
I thought your take down was very fast. We had a pop up camper that we fixed up and used once. Because it took us waaayyy longer to take it down and put up, so we sold it. We were used to class C motorhome 's 😂. You're doing great Brooke! God bless you!
That was very informative and COOOL! YAY Pippa in the breeze!
That is awesome! Brooke and Pippas adventures!! I would love one of those. Have fun Brooke!! ❤❤
You are awesome, and I look forward to so much adventure to come.
I get so excited when I get these video notifications ☺️
Edit: do you cook more now with the pop up?
Hi Brooke if you come across a Tractor Supply in your travels they have a trailer line up system . One goes on your car hitch and other on trailer you back up and when the balls touch your golden 😊 They will know if you describe what you want. Looks like two tennis balls on a stick they are magnetic. I hook my horse trailer up all the time. You will love them. Google trailer line up. It will show what they look like. Also Harbor Freight has them.
Wow. Super easy. Really good. 👀💚👍
You inspire me lady! I think to myself, what am I waiting for - I want to take my dogs and go!
Wow that’s cool 😎 thanks for sharing🥰smooches to pippa 💋💋💋
Loved this video! Thank you for sharing this.
Brooke, I just love watching all your videos. Pippa is adorable
That's cool. I really like that pop up camper. Thanks for sharing 👍
Love your videos… wonder where you are traveling at the moment, Pippa is the best!
you. make it look so easy girl.
I adore you and Pippa 🤗 Really love your videos so much…
Good work! I know you haven't done that tons but that was awesome, esp the back up to the hitch. You must love having your home with you 💕
That picture on your phone is so cute!
