Eric, when you hear a train, the correct response is, ‘I hear a train a coming, it’s rolling round the bend, I ain’t seen the sunshine since I don’t know when…’
now i have that great song stuck in my head. 😂
You’re welcome!😉
...probably drinking' coffee and smokin' big cigars....
Thanks for taking us with you. Enjoy
One of my favorite museums ever. We loved that so much of the collections were donated by local citizens!
Onan does not put out bad generators, yours just has a problem that needs to get fixed and finding that one thing is not easy. My Onan has worked flawlessly for 1450 hours now. Remember a few years back when you had the same problem with another generator, and after a few people tried to fix it, finally the problem turned out to be a simple fix. Have you tried that on this one?
Luv your descriptions on the restaurant & museum. You make us feel as though we are really visiting that particular place which actually warms our hearts, thanx Eric & we're glad that your ribs are healing well! !
LOVED the Pecos Bill stories as a kid. Paul Bunyon also.
Actually there is a story of Pecos Bill riding a twister. I don't remember all of the details but I do recall that story from way back last century. Keep the good stuff coming.
What a neat way to live, have your house with you, a modern house with A/C, electricity, t.v.'s, plumbing, kitchen and it's all in a drivable vehicle !!! really amazing you get to live like that, just driving around as you please more or less.
I love museums..yes, it would be quite the experience to be back in the days of less conveniences. Museums shows just far we have come.. Thank you for sharing exploring the local history of Pecos.
Nosy grandma in Joplin here! We bought a roll of this stuff like they make sunvisors from. We cut pieces to fit between the windows and shades in our RV. Works like a charm! We also put our sunvisor in the windshield if we’re stopped during the day. Really makes a difference! 🎉
What do you think is the best fast food value Burger King or Taco Bell?
Thanks for taking us to the Pecos Museum....wow that was so cool, they have an amazing collection of antiquities. Safe travels for you and the kitties.
Eric. In your travels, Check out the water heater for your RV that doesn't use a storage tank. It is similar to a point of use but much more energy efficient. It hardly uses any LP. Some people call then a point of use unit. I have installed several EcoTemp units. Prices range from $120 and up. Check it out. You won't be sorry you did.
I believe that all of us Texans pronounce Pecos like Paycus (accent on first syllable). Somehow it sounds different when you say it. 😊
It's been too many years since I heard the Pecos Bill story, but if I recall the story correctly, He used a rattlesnake as a lasso, to lasso a tornado that was headed for a town, to change the direction of a tornado to save the town.
Thank you this was so very interesting I really enjoyed it I hope you did ride safe
Good video, Eric! Loved learning about Pecos.
I worked in Midland for about 3 years. Visited Pecos many times. Now I’m back in Dallas with 2 pizza shops and 1 brunch cafe. Life changes fast.
Water heater is a known problem…. And usually an easy fix…. Take the wire leads to the thermostats… unplug one at a time, lightly spray some “Deoxit D5” on the stud, then plug the wire on, pull it off, plug it on, pull it off, approx 10 times.
Repeat for each stud.
The contacts go cold over time and weathering….
I hope this helps….
My favorite, Cat Fish! Been ages since I've had a taste.
LOL, bullet holes, Mom shot a bullet in the kitchen door when she was cleaning her pistol. That opened her eyes! I was a phone operator, on those old telephone switchboards, I had two drunks call in, so drunk they didn't make sense so I took the two cords and plugged them together so they could blubber to each others.
That was fun, Eric!
I spent some of my childhood in Pecos during the summer months with my grandmother I enjoyed seeing the old Museum again thank you for bringing back some fond memories
Hi Eric I met you in quartzsite the wife and I. If you want a brand new water heater electric gas combo I have one brand new in the box you can have it just got to drive to lower Michigan😊
Such a cool video. I agree about growing up in those times.
my hubby and I are waiting for you to bake tater tots in the oven so we can see you use the “oven mitt”. 😊
Those back door trailer locks are neat.
Interesting peek at Pecos.
Cool idea. The Pecos Bill Museum was an interesting place. There is a lot of history there. Opie loves rolling in the rocks. Take care of yourself,Tara and Opie. Safe travels.
Bro! Great video as always! By the way Javelinas are a thing in Arizona. Got chased by a herd just south of where your land is at. No joke. They are partially blind so you have an advantage. Not joking bud.
I love your journeys! I’ve been following your channel for 12 years.
First rodeo was a year before in Nebraska and First professional was Prescott AZ.
Days of cool rain here in Montana. Fog 100% wet. Supposed to mix with Snow tonight. No wind...dead calm.
~Montana Fan
Pecos is a cool little town, but I couldn't handle their summers. Glad to hear your ribs are healing. Love that 360 camera!
Happy Friday Everyone 😇😇
Eric - If you lived in old west, you would be living in a wagon with your cats and using lanterns. And your life expectancy would much shorter. Pretty sure the fun would wear off very fast. Maybe just take a quick tour once you add a Victron flux capacitor and Mr. Fusion to your RV. 👍
Spent several months in Pecos when I travel across country in the RV with with my late wife. Got all the same pictures need to go to dairy Queen for ice cream
Another great video. Love seeing about the towns you visit and their history.
Question; what is a quick estimate of your total solar set up? Thanks in advance!
Glad you’re healing well, keep up the fantastic journey! And tell the kitties ‘hi’….
I love how you take good care of your kitties. Another great video. Thanks!
Will 11 mi away I worked a frakking site as a gate guard I would go in to Pecos for dinner just to get away from all the dirt and the mess it was quite interesting I loved that it's the first place that they did rodeo's and the boots did you see the boots?
Very cool. Thank you for taking us along!!!!
Have you considered a 12 volt mini-split, it would save you a TON of watt consumption?
I liked the museum. I love the history of the old west and have always wanted to live back then too.
That was fun. Love the trip videos.
Thank you!!!
Fantastic Museum, Thanks Eric for another great tour. We have the same problem with our cat (Liam), only trust him on the leash now.
Looks like so much fun!!! Thanks for taking me along!!! Head scratches and belly rubs for the cats!!! Keep up the great vids!!!
Old west Nomadic Fanatic . Riding around the country on horseback . Sending out post cards and telegrams to his fans . I can see that
Great video Eric..
Your channel keeps growing. Keep up the good work.
Another nice video.Thanks Eric. Anything old West is fine by me.....
Eric...
I gotta ask... how in the world are you getting the broad range of shots while on the bike?
Is it a drone....? It doesn't make sense that it is... you get front, low side, and I can't figure it out ! sooooo dammit... I gotta ask !!!
I love that you have really developed your filming skills from the first year....(yep...I have been around your channel creeping that long lol ) and I really want to ask if you would do a few more sunset to sunrise time lapses again...those are just so beautiful..... please??
I truly enjoy your channel .......even if you are stationary dealing with the curveballs life throws at you....
I appreciate that you keep it real and I am so thankful that you share your trials and tribulations on the road, at the homestead...at the house in Illinois when you owned it...the shop...EVERYWHERE
I am going to be getting on the road soon....... now that I have recovered sufficiently from getting both of my knees completely replaced, and I am recovering really well from my fall from my ladder....
I am thankful to know what to expect, and see how a tried and true veteran of the road ..... a true fulltimer handles it...
and it can even still push you to your breaking point... but you have devolped coping mechanisms, have a great support system in you friends, and have learned some mad skills yourself....
I know you think that we get tired of the "stationary " videos...but frankly, I absorb everything...because you are writing the video book of life on the road...in all of it's quirks and aspects... and well... I have decided that I will keep my sticks and bricks here in Michigan, come home for the Major Holidays to spend with my hearts and souls...then hit the road again and get the hell out of Michigan in January through April...
You have been a major inspiration to me, and I want to thank you for giving me something to cling to and focus my long sight on as I finished my working years, recovered from necessary surgeries and am now getting ready to hit the road.
I know you have a complete life that you don't share off camera, and I can totally respect that. I appreciate that you have the on air Eric you share with your subscribers, and I would hope that someday I could meet you and offer you a hug or handshake, or a locally made barley brew...... for being a lifeline for a crazy female in Michigan .... I truly appreciate you and your channel...thank you from my very full and grateful heart
My Brothers And Sisters, TX is A very very very Cool 😎 State To Visit For Real.
What a neat place! Love watching your travels. Sending a hello to you and the kitties.
...................... Heeeeeey Eric !!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next time you're in California, check out Columbia State Park, just outside of Sonora. It's really neat, gold rush style history ( free too) Plenty of parking and some decent campgrounds near by too.
Love Columbia! 💕 Grew up not far in Modesto so we went there all the time
@@JonnyDIY We stayed a week in Angel's Camp back in late October. Went to Columbia, Yosemite, Calaveras Big Trees and a few others places. We totally fell in love with that whole area.
@@chadi7173 oh wow yes those are very beautiful places and I love all the charm of those lil towns. I wanted to move there at one point
Pecos Bill, is that Elon's new Texas $69 Bill???? hahaha VERY Nice when museums ect don't hassle you for filming and we can add bucket list destinations. Glad you are feeling better, getting about time to look for a Chiropractor like Kevin. Make sure your ribs are healing in the right position and you are aligned straight.
Loved visiting Pecos. Still have my filled boot passport. IIRC, the Pecos Bill placard was empty when we were there during April 2022. No picture in my photos.
p.s., those weren’t Ladies of the Night. They were pageant winners. 🤣
Great video, we just passed through there last week. In fact, we are in the same place as you right now. Saw you pull in yesterday. We will be leaving tomorrow, heading to Hot Springs for the eclipse.
You won't need a hot water heater when the summer rolls around. I've gone 5 years without a hot water heater.
That 10/20 interstate split I was just there a month or so ago escaping the wildfires from San Antonio.
Texas is probably my favorite state to be honest.
Great video! Would not have expected the amount of history in that museum. Thanks for sharing.
maybe get a solar thermal hot water heater a small one would most likely work well, though it might be tricky installing it.
Good times, I have no time to take a vacation currently but this definitely puts a smile on my mug, thanks Eric.
the hair curler is wild
Hey Eric What's going on man Loved the Tour of Pecos Texas Ty man and the RV spots are great their
Happy Friday to everyone did you or anyone feel the 4.7 magnitude earthquake that hit the east coast this morning 🫨
What time this morning? I'm in Massachusetts and around 6ish I was woken by a picture falling on my night stand..
@@sky02148around 10:30 it was felt more in New Jersey..
Nothing in Philadelphia
@@jpinto9102 nothing in upstate New York either
Eric. Been watching you for 4 years. Saw you leaving EPCOT last year
Suggest you try a TRUMA propane water heater. Very efficient unit
Been using ours for 4 years. Plug and play where yours is located. Expensive but fantastic unlimited hot water no waste.
Eric, my name is Crenshaw and I've been watching for some time and enjoy the towns you visit, very entertaining . ps I have cats as well
been to that museum. Great Video And Thanks For Sharing My Friend!
Excellent video Eric and very much enjoyed the visit to Pecos. That museum looks so interesting and a place I'd love to visit in the future.
Eric, you'd better come on down to Orlando. Disney is selling its Fort Wilderness cabins for $49,500 each but they come fully furnished.
You are a great tour leader! Really interesting town & history! 😊 Great video!
You're all registered in TX now, so let's get you talking like a native! And I don't mean saying yee haw.
Lesson 1, it's pronounced Paycuss.
Safe travels yall!
Hey......if u put a recirculation system.......to roof top .......radiator heat exchanger........cheers
My anxiety level would be on HIGH, leaving $10K in solar parts behind unlocked😫
Loved the museum, by the way 🤠
I think the goal of the water bladder is to just heat the water to add to cold water to average it out, then use it
Sometimes I think that Opie’s theme song is ToeBean by Dolly Pawton…😅😅😅
Put hand on the bag 10 second the pull away to hot pore in haft gallon water in bag to cool it down If can keep hand on bag and is warm It good I like modified 2 gallon pump sprayer cut the the wand you have two strait piece add hose and hose camp and keep on spray settings. paint One gallon bottle black it or Black PVC pipe with end cap work add hose bib and tire stem to add air presser to the pipe
Exit 330 on I20 has some good fried pies, 6-8 Tesla chargers and 1 other EV charger.
What do you think is the best fast food Burger King or Taco Bell?
I don’t eat fast food, sorry.
@@tikoy1955 that's okay thanks for the response..
Across from the fountain by the jail we used to feed stray cats
😊been so hot here in Florida, the water sitting in my hose at the rv park in the afternoons comes out hot lol when i turn on the cold water in my rig.
Wonder if you can rig the bag to sit on your roof and fill your hot water tank when you open a valve. Just a thought
Fun travel in TX.

You can also adjust the thermostats on those hot water heaters. I always put mine at 125. They come at 150.
Cool place😊
small caliber? What you never heard the fact of tube style LEDs pulsate at 200-500 times a second. Plus Your camera only at slow 30fps rate sync
Thanks! Magnit 💰 😊
