I enjoy your videos. I am 72 and envy your life style so much. Being out in nature is so peaceful and not having drama in the real world. I am more fond of my dogs than human beings in these times.
Thank you, Caroline.
I just loved this video. Perhaps it's the shores of Lake Ontario and a cool breeze, watching you dance in the rain, your yummie burgers, or the look of utter contentment on Sadies beautiful face, but this may become one of my favorite videos that you have ever created.
Love and blessings.
Pray for peace, for us all. :)
Thank you so much 💓
We went right through that area in late May and it was pretty warm and humid then. But we did a few nites in a couple of State Parks as I figured boondocking would be impossible with a travel trailer. However we used Harvest Hosts for the first time this year going east (from Colorado) and it worked out great. Only problem of course is that it’s one night only. But it worked well to get us mileage along our route. Paid for itself in the first or second nights. Interesting places too.
:)
Location is everything. Safe, quiet and acceptable to you. I have never lived the van life or RV life. I live in North Carolina and I am melting!
Love the video and love Miss Sadie!
The production of your videos is spectacular. The love and attention that you give to the visuals and music is so appreciated. I've become interested in hearing more of the music by the artists you choose. As a music fan and curator of sorts myself, I especially love all the singer-songwriter clips you choose. Two Thumbs Up!
Aww thanks so much KS! I'm glad you enjoy the music and have explored the artists! That's awesome
I very much appreciate that as well. Music can enhance or dehance a video. Dehance should be a word. :)
I agree❤
BEEN BINGE WATCHING ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS FOR WEEKS NOW. Tears were flowing on the episode in which you spoke of the scam on your mom and grandma. Loved the Mexico dentist episode. The one where you changed the tire, almost. And the excitement exclaimed when you were in Mexico and the RV finally got pulled out of the sand. Love ya Carolyn. And the positivity. Helping me stay positive this Channel. R.I.P Capone as well! Love every upload you provide. And a great cook you are as well. The baked chz breakfast burrito looked incredible.
@@JordanHeller1 haha me too I've been binge watching as well
Thank you both very much. Welcome!
Wait till you get to the video where Carolyn bungee jumps...that was excellent!👍
I really look forward to your videos also. I’m in north east Vermont if you would like a place to park your RV for a few days, the offer is open. We do have a dump station nearby (about 15 minutes) at a RV park, but I don’t know how much it is. Our little town is pretty cool and near a couple gorgeous lakes. It’s just me, my daughter, her fiancé and three dogs in a fenced yard on over 10 acres.
@@CarolynsRVLifethat jingle in the beginning too makes me happy. Like a sitcom. Love it and the messages of positivity strewn throughout the years. Build eachother up instead of tear eachother down!
Well, on the Ontario Lake Canadian side, FYI they were deluged with rain so they had flooding in Toronto cars got stuck, the Union station was flooded, CBC went on and covered for a full afternoon. They need to install rest areas with bathrooms for truckers and RV's so they have somewhere to go during a flooding, and allow grassy areas during the corridor of major highways so water has somewhere to go. I had watched a storm chaser who was stuck on the highways near Wisconsin due to flooding on highways, and traffic was stopped for four hours due to flooding, so they need to allow water to run off somewhere in the US and in Canada.
Half of Toronto was out of electrical power as well, for over 9 hours. My power was out from 12:30pm to 9:30pm. We can handle snow and ice, but deluge of water, no!!
I so admire your strength and courage to follow your dreams and wishes. Life seems to work against some of us and our freedom pays the price. You go, girl!! You are living my dream!😊
The sound of the water is music to my ears❤And Sadie’s “throne” looks so comfy ❤️
It was a great day traveling around with you. Scritches for Sadie. ☮️
Thanks my friend 🧡
My favorite parts were the lake side walk, Sadie photos in the water, getting wet in the summer rain and black bean & tofu burgers. I love getting wet in the summer rains. Thank you for taking us along.
Carolyn! You went to all of our favorite spots! We live near Chimney Bluffs! We are so glad you finally got to see this wonderful area- we’ve followed you on your adventures for several years now and have enjoyed all your videos- safe travels and keep up the great work!
Thanks so much. It's fun coming back and exploring my home state as an adult!
Another great video Carolynn! You have my utmost admiration❤
We loved our trip to NY in 2022. We did not see this State Park however stayed up at a state park on the St Lawrence River that was gorgeous. We also found a cool little park in Lowville, NY, that was really nice as well. It was no hook ups but there was hardly anyone there (except for Dan.....he was a character). So if you make it over to Lowville look it up. Little community campground maybe ??? cannot remember. Very reasonable. Weather was nice. Just in the edge of the Adirondacks.
FWIW: we traveled east and north as far as Quebec City this year. While it was fun and interesting, we are probably going to go west from now on (from Colorado). Camping, especially boondocking is SO MUCH EASIER in the west. Plus the wide open spaces of the west are just more to our liking.
Agreed. Finding a safe, comfortable spot is highest priority.
Carolyn, I have watched your videos since you first started your RV Life back years ago with Capone at your side. You have been such an inspiration to me and given me hope to be able to live kinda like you. I plan to move away from hellacious Texas and do some traveling to find a good state where I can buy some off-grid property and live out my life as far away from Corporate America as I possibly can. Thank you for making me believe I can do it at the age of 63. Watching you through the years and seeing the amazing changes in you as the stress and pain in your life seems to have lessened has been wonderful to witness! F*ck all the naysayers and negative Nancy's and their mean comments. You are an amazing woman! When I find my piece of paradise, I will gladly give you my address and put out the Welcome mat if you're ever in my area and want a safe place to park for a while.
I just love Sadie.
Sadie is just so cute and such a great companion. Her little face is so sweet.
Summer seems the best time to be a camp host.stay 1 area june to sept 1st ..get ac....then travel rest of the year
I mean a hook up...or shady area
I want to what you all do so bad but in the last few yrs my health has failed so bad. It not possible for me to get away to far. I broke my back in 3 places yrs ago. I have to keep seeing a pain doctor once a month just to keep me on my feet. With out seeing him I wouldn’t be able to stay in my feet. My pain level goes so high. It makes me so angry.
@@gracieg7601... everything is not meant for everybody...
Thanks for the great video! Loved seeing Lake Ontario and surrounding areas. Safe travels to you and Sadie girl🌞🦋💖
I live in the foothills of the Adirondacks (not too far from the Finger Lakes) and the temperature was brutal for a few days.
i also live in the foothills of the Adirondacks.....we might be neighbors....lol
Some gorgeous views around the lake on this as well as the heartfelt words at the park! Made me teary eyed! Know what you mean.. I could never move 3 times/ day and travel that distance! Wow, I have a hard time just getting out of the house. 😊
I wish the East would provide more places fir RV-ers!! We do spend money!! Like that song you played at the end!! Hugs to you and Sadie!!😎😎
Limited land mass and population density prevents it
We were up in the New England area a few weeks ago. Beautiful places to explore. Only 2 more years until we are full time!!
Sounds great!
I always learn something new every time I watch your videos thank you love from Canada 🇨🇦
So nice of you
My observation is that serious rv'rs love nature & solitude!!! That's my jam. Thank you for another beautiful video.
I would agree with that 100% . Thank you so much for being here and being a channel member!
Thanks Carolyn and Sadie enjoyed this a lot 🤩
Looks like your doggy knows where to sleep cute puppy.
Good to see you on the East coast
Seems to be hot everywhere, even in the northwest! Only brand new homes have a/c out here. Mine does not! Did buy a roll around portable a/c so I have at least one room to keep cool.
@@suzyd2361 I bought a portable ac for the exact same reason.
It's funny how too hot is a major issue but too cold not so much. I've lived in S. W. Florida for 44 years and can't deal with N.E. heat.
I used to sleep so hot at my grannys, that I would go to bed in wet pj's. And a big fan right in my face!
I loved the fireflies! Brought back my childhood!
You have my rug in your kitchen!! Tree of life. Good taste.
Overall a enjoyable video. Well filmed, I even found the confused fly on your windshield funny, it is all those little details, the sunsets, the dripping clothes, we feel the experience. Those patties looked delicious. I wish you the best on your travels. First time I watch your videos.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very enjoyable video and music. Thank u for sharing
Thanks for the video!! Really enjoy watching where your going!!
Beautiful spot, thanks for the video!
Im glad to hear you talk well about your mother. If I remember correctly, there was a lot of anger there in your very early videos.. . I forgave my mother many years after she died and when I did for the first time I think of the good things about her. It was very healing for me..
When you were coming out of Canandagiua I only live 30 minutes from there. Too bad I didn't know. You were welcome to stay here.
@@epiphany2112 here in Victor.
@@cyndicash9096 neat. I have never heard anyone on here that close to me.
grew up on Lake Ontario...Webster....fabulous area!
Such beautiful countryside!
Carolyn, thank you again for another wonderful video. Love to watch you and Sadie. Much love and peace. Stay safe.
I really enjoyed this video. It makes me want to visit that area
Can I just say - I'm a musician and I'm always blown away by your music choices! Great taste.
That Sadie Girl is such a love. Thanks for the ride! So beautiful there. Oh! And I measure my ingredients just like you. :)
Been vegan a very long time - and I'm going to make that. That looks great!
Wow, I'm humbled by your kind words. That means a lot. Thank you!
And good luck with the black bean/veggie burgers. They turned out to be quite delicious. I'd add more beans next time though "-)
Come see southern Michigan!! I know you were in the up .😊 We have jiffy mix ! Jeff Daniels!😅
💙 Such a relaxing video 💙 Thank you Carolyn 😊
You are so welcome!
Lovely video as always ❤
I am a sigle older woman on the road in my RV and I so totally relate to your looking for boondocking sites. I do the same well almost to will travel farther off the roads than I will. At 77 I really do have a fear of being broken down to far from help. I am getting ready to start my journey south to a place I have in southern AZ. But looking for cooler weather on the way.
Wow, that song at 30:13 and at the end was about you! Nailed it. Great vid.
Yes, I think it's my new theme 🎵 🎶 🎵
I love the beauty of upstate NY but don't miss the humidity and heat. Thank you for sharing.
I hadn't realized they had so much humidity in Upstate NY til I started watching Carolyn. Good to know for future reference (if I ever finally get my dang hips fixed where I can go anyplace again!). Guess I'll have to save that for a fall ramble someday. Thanks for the ride-along!
Very interesting....loved it! 😊
I really admire you. 😊
Lightening bugs/fireflies , haven’t seen them in a long time😀
Hi. Unfortunately, it no longer runs, but I took a Catamaran ferry over from Toronto to Rochester early 2000s.
Pretty scenery! Thanks for sharing!
Some of the comments are ridiculous imo! All of NY is NOT NYC! Big big difference!
Well said
Lol.
Very pretty at the Great Lakes. Nice video. 💕💕
Thanks for visiting
I’m going to try your recipe. I will play with it a bit and see if I can get them like yours! Looks so good.
Lake Ontario is so beautiful and the sailboat looks picture perfect. I love that green, lush forest. Thank you for taking us along it’s so beautiful. I’ve lived in CA my whole life. Someday I hope to see all upstate areas!
Bazinga! Loved the vistas, loved the rock scrambling. Very inspiring. Love all your videos. I’ve watched the all!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
I could definitely see doing a loaf with your burger mixture. I do love anything using beans. Beans are such a great alternative to meat. I find that it's all about the right seasoning and I'd be a vegetarian 3/4 of the time an never really miss the meat protein. Thanks for sharing your trip
Thanks! Appreciate you!
I’m an East Coast person. Boondocking is almost impossible so it would be paying every night for sleeping.
Dang gjrl, you should have headed to Friday Harbor, WA this is 10 days later( 07/24/24 sorry been busy) yup high today was 71 and a bit cloudy. We have oceans around us since we're an island. You get here by ferry but well worth bit. Yup we have parks, camping, ocean fronts. And a nice breeze.
Thanks for showing us how you made the black bean burgers, Carolyn! I loved seeing Geneva and the other small town with the beautiful lakes right there. There is something about these small towns out east - they just have so much appeal. Not sure how much I'd love them in December, though! Thanks for letting us peek in on you and Sadie!
I've been in Oregon since May 10th and this is the 5th heatwave and the second worst. Last week was the 4th heat wave and the number one worst. 104° where I was next to the Willamette River. I am stupified by this because I lived in Oregon and couldn't stand the weather so I moved to Arizona. Now I'm back here visiting and having to beg people to stay inside with them during the day because it is so awful that my dog and I really suffered, esp. last week. Fortunately I do have relatives here and I can hang out with various ones so I'm not a burden. Makes it difficult though because they are in assisted living and there's a strict policy about guests. Good luck everybody with the heat there seems to be no coolness everywhere unless you go way way up high!
Love the country side ❤
Yesterday was great by the huge lake
Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing ❤ Putting Lake Ontario on my drive list
Gosh Carolyn You were right by my place and sure could have stayed on my property and plugged in as well and gone swimming in the pool. Oh well. Nice to see you in my neck of the woods. I hear ya though for Boondocking when it is as hot as it has been here. The temps are finally cooling down now.
Carolyn. I am so sorry i corrected you sbout June's Journey. Their spp can tell you what they want you to say. I had no business telling you. You get way way to to many complaints.
I do not need to add to them. Love you channel , you and Sadie. Been warching since you had Capone and then lost Huckleberry. Love your receipes.
Hi I just subscribed I enjoy your long videos and all the sights and sounds that you take us to. Also thank you for posting the names and titles of your songs, I tried doing a Google song search and they couldn't identify it but luckily you had it posted!!
We didn’t have air conditioning as a kid. I used to go out in the yard with the mosquitoes to sleep. What’s worse? Getting punctured or cooked?
OMG 🦟 punctured!! Wayyyy worse. 😮
Know your pain, grew up in south
It's hard to find boondocking out east - much harder than out west! Love the great lakes! Thanks for including the sound of the waves. Where did you get those window socks. I have tried three times on Amazon and they are never big enough for my hightop Promaster
You went threw rochestter and drove rightt near my house lol
Near mine too
@@cyndicash9096 cool
Welcome to new york. If you dont like the weather, wait a day! 😂
Such a beautiful dog
Woof!!!
Enjoy your videos ! Thank You 😊
And Sadie is a sweet doggie ❤
Nice video! ❤
Love walking in the rain. But maybe that wasn't planned.
It wasn't!!! Lol
Greetings from CT. Love seeing u on the east coast!!
I'm not even close to ur caliber in finding place to stay nor boondocking after being on the road for two yrs now.
We where in Utah last week & it was a 114 & even at night with very little hot breeze @ 100. I got so disconnected I drove most of the night to get to CA to a beach area that was 70s to 80s. My little guy was suffering too.
I know what u mean by chasing the weather. Eighter its hot or the cold, that keeps us moving.
Thx u for sharing ur video. I always enjoy watching ur journey. Love that sweet Sadie. 🤗
I've been thinking about doing the van life for awhile,but I don't see myself really doing it mostly cause I get lost driving anywhere 😂😅 I would have to have a driver for sure😂
I really enjoyed this video as I live in the area you visited. I currently live in Macedon, NY which is just down the road from Palmyra. I also know of the places you stayed overnight. It was just cool to see an RVer filming in this area. 😊❤ I would love to do what you are doing. Be safe, happy travels. PS Love your doggie. 🐾❤️
Maybe you explained this in another video but why don't you visit your mom in the autumn. And if the reason you are in New York is to see your mom why are you driving all over trying to boondock? Is it just to make videos? Maybe do some work on your rig and make videos about that so you can spend time with her? ,
Wow. so much advice!!!
@@CarolynsRVLifeunsolicited too and free! 😅. Maybe your mother is like my mother was. I'm thinking.....hmmm. You kind of work your way up to it ??🎉
Don't take it personal.
Not everyone has a loving relationship with their parents. Sometimes small doses at a time is the best that can happen.
❤@@oyenations162
I don't know how you are surviving this heat/humidity. We are heading up to the Lake Placid area to camp to get away from the near 100 degree heat here by the Jersey Shore. Sadly, this is becoming the new normal. Forecasted to be in the upper 70's where we are going and I can't remember what that feels like.
Hope everything turns out good be careful and safe we Love you
There is a lot of camping places along the Erie canal. I don't know if you can find one your camper could fit in or not. Guess I spoke to soon. I guess you already know that now.
I totally get your need for solitude in order to really relax.
well cutie park next to me!! yea ha ha be careful!!
Wow I admire what you do..not sure I could do..but glad you have your precious dog friend❤
yay my Sunday video! awesome rain-caught and scenes@ all over the place. Shivering black bell thumbs up and hearts
You are in the Finger Lakes wine country- aren't there Harvest Host sites nearby?
Yes there are!
I don’t think it’s that hot but it sure is humid!!! Yuk!
Ill take my Florida weather any day.
Hi,
Try rolled oats in your vege burgers also. Yours looked delicious.
The trail walk and water are beautiful. Enjoy your visit with your mother.
Resubscriber, was with you from the very beginning. Your content is so good. Especially love your editing style, boon docking methods, and cooking style. Thanks for being authentic 🫶🏻
Wonderful video!!
Such a beautiful place!!
Would love to know the name and singer to the song you have in your video??.....
Loved it!!
Music is always listed in video description
I have also recently found this channel and have been watching every day ❤
Yay! Thank you! Welcome Aboard!
I liked how you add info about the places you visit, I enjoyed the music going on the road. I dont know if you could add the songs title and the performer of the song. I would suggest having black out drapes to protect your privacy, I found them a bit too translucent. To keep the heat out, you could even use reflectics. Of course you might have though about those things already. But as a woman, I would even cut out a little window/door in the reflectics to check out the surroundings.
The way you show your kitchen window light at nighttime in your rv is exvellent
Thank you 😊
