    My name is Dave and I travel with my dog Bella in a 1987 Class A Motorhome. My channel is about full time RV Living in an older RV while keeping the wheels rolling on a budget. I do the repairs, updates and upgrades myself. I’ve become my own RV Mechanic/Medic! I seek boondocking opportunities every chance I can and power the RV with 500 watts of solar and approximately 500 amp hours of batteries. RV Resorts are just not our style!

    Can't believe you're coming back North already. How time flies. Spring has come early up here but Winter is not fully done with us yet.

    Hello Dave I am new to your channel and loving it . I saw the Cat head campground on this vlog and it reminded me of my childhood years lol . I 65 now lol but as a southern kid I would get to go to my grandparents and spend a couple weeks with them and my grandaddy would in the morning yell hey yall come get ya some cat heads lol . He was talking about biscuits at breakfast . I assumed he was going by the size of the biscuit about the size of a cat head . IDK but maybe thats where the campground got its name lol. Anyway I got a great memory today ! Wow haven't thought about that in many years . Thanks

    Those big ol units are notorious for eating the Chevy turbo hydromatics 475. My brother just rebuilt mine and we added an electric fan cooler Infront of the radiator to add additional transmission cooling.

    I’ve been kinda keeping an eye open for an old hand or foot pump like that one for awhile. If we ever lose power for any length of time we’ll be out of water too. We’re on a private well and I love that we have safe water, but I wish we could hand pump it at times.
    It sucks that they didn’t update their info online about the closure. Happy safe travels on your way home🤞👍🏼🙋🏼‍♀️

    We "got" to replace our transmission too, on our Class A. What a Treat. I have similar pictures of it getting towed. I'm glad that's in your Rear View now Dave. Safe travels this spring!!

    Ahh yes, the day the Bounder transmission decided it had it enough and needed some TLC. Just the sound of the engine surging when the Transmission was slipping was a terrible sound to hear in the video and I'm sure that your heart was in your throat knowing that a major rebuild was in the immediate future. Nothing worse than a surprise like that to dampen anyone's spirit, but you appeared to handle it as just 'one of those things' and got back to living life asap....ya did good Dave!
    Too bad about the free campground being closed for renovations, and yes - it should have said something to that effect online, but it obviously wasn't a priority to whoever owns the property. Maybe it will be a good place to stay at next year if you should find yourself in the area again.
    Hello to you and Bella both Dave - pretty soon it will just be the two of you continuing north again bound for beautiful Pennsylvania and your big workshop for tinkering with your projects which I always look forward to watching. Safe journey guys!

      @SC2ZergPlayer 4 месяца назад

      You can't really call anything a mountain in Florida though, the highest point is 335 feet and the old school definition of a mountain was a minimum of 1000FT. It's just gotta be dumb luck since there are real mountains back at his home in Pennsylvania and driving through the Appalachians to get there

      I think it might be on your end unfortunately. Sounds perfectly normal to me. Maybe try restarting RUclips to see if that helps. For some reason I couldn't open comments a few minutes ago but a restart fixed it.
