Daydreams, You will never know the joy I have for you. You're a beautiful family, something I never had. I'm old now, in the hospital more than not. I watch your videos while nurses and doctors poke needles into me, as I dread another surgery, another glucose crash, another doctor visit with bad news. And i live through you, think of what might have been for me. I'm not long for this world and I'm at peace with that. Just know you've often brightened my day a fraction.
You may never see this, but for the last several years, you guys have inspired me to live a better life. A fuller life, and a more enjoyable and focused life. Thank you guys for all the effort you put into sharing your adventures, and know that you are VERY loved! If you ever make it to the Springfield/Branson Missouri area. Message me! Silver Dollar City is an AMAZING theme park. You all can 100% be my guest!!!
Early comments are usually the higher rated ones. Most of the people that read the comments will most likely upvote you. So your comment will be at the top of the list. I'm 7 hours late to the video, and you were the 3rd comment I saw. 👍
That is so great, they make me yearn for a different life too !!! I grew up in Oklahoma and my mom brought us to Branson/silver dollar city when I was a kid. It was the first funnel cake I ever had.....great memories !!!! Blessings
Talking on the phone, best tip ever we have a 40 foot fifth wheel and everyone is impressed with how well me and my wife do. Thank you so much for tips and tricks
I grew up in that part of Michigan.. used to work summers in Saugatuck.. my parents lived in Grand Haven for a long time. When I was kid I used to sand surf on the dunes. Lotsa fun!
Hello!! Greetings from West Texas! My husband and I just came across your channel not too long ago as we were shopping for our 3rd Fifth-wheel. We have watched countless episodes. Just wanted to say “Thank You!” No seriously, Thank You!! There is not a lot to watch on the networks, so y’all provide great entertainment, you do what you do WELL!!! Plus continue to spur on our dream of getting back on the road! We took early retirement, downsized to the point of Freedom, enjoyed 2 years of full time RV life, now back to work for a season as we keep alive the dream of hitting the road again! Also, I think y’all would be an awesome addition on Chip and Joanna Gains new network! Jus sayin! Thanks again!!! Don’t stop!!!! 😃😉
You guys have brought me out of my depression. My rig is not the only one that needs cleaning regularly on the inside and the clothes that need to be put away (not on the dinette).
Being born and raised in the beautiful state of Michigan, this video takes me back to a lot of memories. Thank you for that you guys, love your channel. Now I'm feeling homesick lol
Greetings from Sacramento CA! My hubby Michael and I have been subs for about 6 months now. We really enjoy your videos. You have really have found a wonderful way to enjoy life! I am retired after 35 years in law enforcement. Michael is younger and is still working for the local electric company. We wanted to wish you the best of luck in your travels! Be safe and thank you for your great videos! 🙏❤️🌹💙🇺🇸
Congrats you fell for it. Just another TV commercial turned into "ka ching ka ching". Just remember the high moments when reality brings you to da lows. Its da pitts. Oh love those views and subcribers.
Absolutely wonderful video! My heart broke a little watching Charlie. We lost our golden a few weeks ago to bone cancer. Thank you so much for your videos.
My BF and I are hitting the road in his 34 ft Class A Winnebago in mid October, we watch your video's every week and have learned a lot of valuable information! Another awesome video, stay safe and stay healthy!
Welcome to Michigan!!! Hope it was all that you have expected it to be. We live in St. Clair Michigan with the worlds largest fresh water boardwalk. Pure Michigan. Thank you for the family channel that my family looks forward to watching.
Watching you all pick those blueberries took me back to RV'ing with my parents 40 years ago in England when we used to pick strawberries. Those are the memories that last. Thank you.
Hi guys, love the PSA regarding the safe/potentially hoof in mouth disease water/dumping stations lol! Also, my beloved wife wants the "reset" "refresh" of the rig days OFTEN! We get it! Gotta be in the clean machine! Keep thee awesome video work coming. So helpful and informative. Warmest regards, Mike & Jenn
Our family has been watching you guys since the beginning! Glad you guys enjoy Michigan. We enjoy camping here. Would be a joy to catch up at a Michigan park one day!
Oh my I miss Pentwater Mears and Silver lake. Hubby was born and raised around there in Hart. Lived in MI til 2013. Now in OK. Ludington State Park, great place to rv and you have Lake Michigan beach.
Good info and a good plan for the day and convenient parking for the laundromat. I hate laundromats but they are necessary, at least in college i would read and get some studying done. Your conversation with the gent you met, he says " I like walking into his office" priceless, great encounter.
Native michigander here and you're right about summer in Michigan - especially if you're on a lake or near one of the big lakes. Looking forward to summer makes the winter bearable.
The wife and i are heading out for a Covid VACA in October and decided to rent a Travel Trailer to KNOW where we are staying. I have never set one up, but i have been following you and the fam since the flat tire way back years a go. I went back and found the tutorial you did on setting up your tailer and i have ordered a filter and a couple of things to make our vaca nicer. The wife asked if i was comfortable with how to set up the trailer and i said, "Mark showed me"lol travel on folks, i am two years from retirement and we plan on heading out for an extended trip around the country to see everything we ever wanted that we have not seen during my military career around the world...than you and Monday mornings are my favorite day....new videos day
Can’t explain the feeling but you explaining how it feels to hear from others, I can only imagine what people feel when they meet you and the gang Marc. I know me and Arrealle would go crazy..the safe kind haha
Well its like this...Dont idolize the media nor those that are sponsored by corporations. Are you one of those that say that they cant live with out? Well aint that livin with out?
Trish picking blueberries in her cute hat and John Lennon glasses: I don't know who I am right now! Everyone watching: Trish is in her ELEMENT! I have two blueberry bushes on either side of my dining room window and every spring I am in heaven as I get 2 cups of blueberries every day. Blueberries on the road would be priceless!
Charlie is so so SUPER cute 😍 and sweet!!!!! Love it when you go to Michigan because I camped in Traverse City with my brother, mom and twin nephews several years ago! Tent camping had NO rain that week and it was so memorable!! With your videos in Michigan especially with your friends keeps me wanting to go back with my husband and kids now!! But with our travel trailer. Glad you had a successful time during Covid-19. My husband doesn't want to go anywhere until next year 😢
Great, great, great fun!!! 😃. I had a blast on this trip with you, riding those dune buggies in the sand!!! WOW!!!! And absolutely LOVED your selection of music! For your new refreshen word...how about Kyd Airstream-reinvigorate-day, KARD, for short! Actually, I myself feel reinvigorated after watching this video! Thank you so much. You brought some much-needed fun into these politically-messed-up Covid days! You guys are a total blast! 💕.
Dang I keep missing you guys. I am so happy you enjoy Michigan as much as us "Michiganders" do. And ya we have a short summer season. Come back and go skiing. :)
I NEVER get drinking water (fresh water) from anywhere that is within normal RV water hose distance of a blank tank dump station because of EXACTLY what you've described. We only full timed for 4 months and saw all kinds of gross things, not to mention all kinds of not so obvious gross things with backflushing hoses, etc. We ONLY get fresh water from a source that is at least a hose length away from dump site (including individual sites). Which means we move often enough to get water in/out of parks and places....I'm just so grossed out by what you shared and what we've seen
Love that you're in Michigan! We love our Great Lakes State. Glad you got to experience Silver Lakes Sand Dunes. Mark Rippee (owner of Silver Lake Dune Rentals) is one of our favorite people ... Check him out if you're in the area and want to experience the dunes. Enjoy the rest of your time in Michigan!
Such a fun video to watch. Loved every second of it but right now I am worried....Y'all got Charlie back safe to land, I hope...LOL That was too funny! Come back Charlie!!
The best way to repair auto glass is to simply tap the glass with a rock or other hard object until the glass shatters. The next step is to call a glass shop to come out and replace it for you.
So sorry Wendy but Charlie at the end was historical with Caleb...I needed my KYD fix so I watch Season 1 all over again...the boys were so little.. Another great video Leach family...and Bill installing your own 50amp. now thats family..love Peggy 💗 ♥ 💓
Really glad you made it back to MI. Mears SP was one of my first camping trips as a kid. BTW, it was great to meet you all at Elkhart GD RALLY’19, thanks Caleb for the golf cart rides!
Omg Marc my favorite scene of you...dragging that sewer hose down the Alaska hwy...🤣🤣. I love blueberries, they are so delicious. One of my favorite things to do is freeze them and use them on cereal or ice cream, or better yet, just pop the little pieces of frozen heaven in my mouth! Good video guys, thanks so much for the video!
I’ve been watching for a while and decided even though I rarely subscribe to anything, I have to support you guys. I RV’d for many years and had to give it up for several reasons. I miss it terribly and have been living vicariously by watching your videos. When things have settled down a little bit, or a little bit less crazy, I am determined to hit the road again. Meanwhile, Thanks for keeping me sane.😅
I was hoping the Michigan videos would have come out earlier but so it goes! We just returned from a 5 day around the Lake loop drive and would have loved renting the dune buggies if we'd have known! Thought it was only the jeep rides. Maybe NEXT loop around Lake Michigan we'll have it planned out! Lol Thanks Marc and Trish for keeping the daydreamers agoing! Can't wait until next video and your new insights second time around Mackinac Island.
I grew up in West Michigan in a town called Spring Lake very close to the Lake Michigan lakeshore. It's nice to see my home state again. Picking blueberries was my very first job as a kid. Blueberry Hill, the Jablonski's. I went to school with one of their kids. I haven't watched your Mackinak Island video yet, but I was there when I was a kid on a family vacation. Looks like you guys are having a lot of fun! :-)
As to the scratch in your truck window, use some 4-0 steel wool (that's 0000). It is the best thing ever, to clean scratches off your windows or windshield. It will not leave any scratches while using.
Just an observation on the trick mudflaps. It's a good thing they are easily removed. I had a similar set on an '02 Super Duty. It appeared they were trapping moisture and dirt against the fenderwell. I decided to remove them and I'm glad I did. The paint was starting to put with evidence of corrosion beginning. I'd recommend removing them every change of the season (especially in northern climates like Michigan) and cleaning the surfaces and reinstalling them. Y'all's Super Duty may have an aluminum body, but the paint can still put and aluminum won't rust, but it will corrode. Maybe after the first good storm would be a good idea to check it out. Safe travels, y'all.
My wife and I went to that very place a year and a half ago. Before our camper that is the place that inspired us to get one hope you had a as wonderful of a time as we did it looks like it.
It was fun watching your Michigan visit play out on video. The next time you come across on the S.S. Badger, you may want to consider also visiting Ludington. We have a beautiful state park and several wonderful campgrounds. For your hiking pleasure, the state park offers scenic trails through the dunes as well as a one mile path to the Big Sauble Point lighthouse.
What a fun video! I loved seeing you guys racing around the "dunes", I loved the tips about dumping stations and seeing Marc getting the hose when y'all lost it-I laugh each time because it is priceless, I loved the blueberry picking and pie baking, loved the piano playing and sing, and I adored Charlie chasing the ducks! So much fun in this video and it flew by so fast. I am assuming that Charlie came back home when called. Fun times with friends who are more like family! Hugs, Brenda
We are new to RVing...guess you veterans could call us "COVID-RVers" ugh. But anyway we LOVE your videos. They provide a good mix of educational stuff along with exploration and culture kinda vibe like a travel show. Very well done. I have learnt a lot from your videos and thank you for the effort you all put in. I just hope that other long timers don't hate us new RV-ers thinking that we jumped in just cuz of the pandemic. My wife and I have thought about RV-ing off an on but the pandemic certainly gave us a massive push to go do it. While there has been a MASSIVE steep learning curve toward towing, hitching, and so many other nuances, we have grown to love it a lot and hope to continue loving this even more as time goes by.
This is such quintessential summer fun! Plus, it’s always nice to have friends with such a beautiful place to host you. Definitely summer to remember material right here. ❤️
Ok 😱😱😱 Had to pause the video while I shrieked, gagged, then nearly fainted dramatically... Dumping the black tank then using the potable hose.. 🤮! - The “NO” cartoon popping up was priceless.. Agreed!
Fun episode.. we visited Silver Lake a few years ago. Didn’t haul our side side from Oregon but rented a 4 seater so we could take my 94 yr old Mother in-law on her first dune ride! She loved it. BTW next time you come to Oregon be sure to check out the bigger dunes on the Central Coast. I’m surprised the Blueberry farm didn’t weigh Mark before and after and charge him by the pound ! 😂 safe travels..
Someone may have already suggested this. I would take your truck to an auto glass place like Novus. They can grind the sharp edges of your windshield scratch and fill with clear filler and buff it back out. Will prevent a crack from forming later and will be almost invisible.
having worked around glass for years. you need glass polish with a with special brush attached to drill. Look up glass supplies and you will find a number of sources. being tempered glass will not completely remove but will minimize.
If you guys are still there I highly recommend visiting macwood Dune rides. It's basically a tour of the dunes with a ton of history involved. It's a great time.
Cool that you are in Michigan! I live in Flint, and my daughter is in your area right now, camping. She and her family are moving to Mears soon, to be near a new job she has taken.
My yellow lab Jack had no impulse control when it came to ducks. What's worse is he was fast on land and in the water and he'd sell me out in a second to get his toes wet. One day he hit the afterburners on some ducks strolling down the canal. Jumped in and tore down after them in the water like a jet ski. To this day I will never forget the look on the ducks looking back at him realizing he was gaining on them then start paddling faster. When Jack was about to FINALLY get one of them... They realized they could fly and took off. He SMELLED TERRIBLE after swimming in the canal. I had to give him 3 baths. I miss that dog.
Advice on the windshield scratch. Four ott 0000 ultra fine steel wool and Comet cleaner and scrub and scrub and scrub. It will NOT scratch the glass. I've detailed cars and boats for 39 years so try it, you might be amazed.
We were there at Silver Lakes a month ago. Stayed at same State Park. Looks like you guys were right next to the road. We were further in, but what a challenge parking a fifth wheel toy-hauler, with all the trees. We brought our own Jeep and had fun on the dunes. Like your Grand Design Toy Hauler better than that Airstream though. Keep up the good work. Watch most of your videos. Mark K from Illinois.
I am so excited I found your channel!!!!!!! I have been binge watching all weekend My life is changed and the music edit is so well done Thankyou!!!!!!!
Silver Lake is beautiful . We have family in that area. They have 4x4 to run the dunes. We tried to water-skiing from the top of the dune onto Lake Michigan
Daydreams, You will never know the joy I have for you. You're a beautiful family, something I never had. I'm old now, in the hospital more than not.

Thank you guys for all the effort you put into sharing your adventures, and know that you are VERY loved!
If you ever make it to the Springfield/Branson Missouri area. Message me! Silver Dollar City is an AMAZING theme park. You all can 100% be my guest!!!
That's awesome. Thanks!
Pure Michigan, should have taken your Ford on the dunes.
Those look like the same dunes that @cleetusmcfarland was at lol

I grew up in Oklahoma and my mom brought us to Branson/silver dollar city when I was a kid. It was the first funnel cake I ever had.....great memories !!!!
Blessings
I wish there were a bit more of the families singing around the piano. I love family time around the piano.
Absolutely captivating and unassuming...no upsells and hype...pure unadulterated joy of family, friends, fun.
Put a pool noodle on the awning support. It's a visual reminder and if you do forget, you don't scratch the truck.
Talking on the phone, best tip ever we have a 40 foot fifth wheel and everyone is impressed with how well me and my wife do. Thank you so much for tips and tricks
I grew up in that part of Michigan.. used to work summers in Saugatuck.. my parents lived in Grand Haven for a long time. When I was kid I used to sand surf on the dunes. Lotsa fun!
Novus 2 polishing compound and 0000 steel wool to get rid to that scratch.
Being raised here in Michigan, Silver Lake has been a playground since I was a kid. Glad you enjoyed your stay!!
Hello!! Greetings from West Texas!
My husband and I just came across your channel not too long ago as we were shopping for our 3rd Fifth-wheel. We have watched countless episodes. Just wanted to say “Thank You!” No seriously, Thank You!! There is not a lot to watch on the networks, so y’all provide great entertainment, you do what you do WELL!!! Plus continue to spur on our dream of getting back on the road! We took early retirement, downsized to the point of Freedom, enjoyed 2 years of full time RV life, now back to work for a season as we keep alive the dream of hitting the road again!
Also, I think y’all would be an awesome addition on Chip and Joanna Gains new network! Jus sayin!
Thanks again!!! Don’t stop!!!! 😃😉
I do love that clip of Marc carrying the hose. ( I Had to watch that ending over again. ROFL)
Every time I see it I laugh 😂
its classic
It never gets old!! Lol Walk of shame! LOL
You guys have brought me out of my depression. My rig is not the only one that needs cleaning regularly on the inside and the clothes that need to be put away (not on the dinette).
Being born and raised in the beautiful state of Michigan, this video takes me back to a lot of memories.
Thank you for that you guys, love your channel.
Now I'm feeling homesick lol
Glad you're in my home state. Looks like you are doing Michigan right!
Greetings from Sacramento CA! My hubby Michael and I have been subs for about 6 months now. We really enjoy your videos. You have really have found a wonderful way to enjoy life!
I am retired after 35 years in law enforcement. Michael is younger and is still working for the local electric company.
We wanted to wish you the best of luck in your travels!
Be safe and thank you for your great videos! 🙏❤️🌹💙🇺🇸
We’re 74 now and silver lake we all loved. As my daughter would sing “and we’ll have fun fun fun until dad takes the 4 wheeler away” Michigan
Happy to report
Mike and I bought our first RV this week
2020 Tiffin Wayfarer
Our adventures to follow
Thanks for your inspiration
Keep rolling
❤️❤️❤️
Congrats you fell for it. Just another TV commercial turned into "ka ching ka ching". Just remember the high moments when reality brings you to da lows. Its da pitts. Oh love those views and subcribers.
Congrats and have a great time!
Absolutely wonderful video! My heart broke a little watching Charlie. We lost our golden a few weeks ago to bone cancer. Thank you so much for your videos.
My BF and I are hitting the road in his 34 ft Class A Winnebago in mid October, we watch your video's every week and have learned a lot of valuable information! Another awesome video, stay safe and stay healthy!
One of your best, Marc. Anything you film in Michigan is a balm to the stuck-at-home soul. Love.
I’m just going to assume Charlie didn’t keep going and made it back safe and sound. 😊
Right!
I was thinking the same thing!!! 😳
I was worried Charlie would keep going! Glad he had the good sense to turn around.
We laughed at this part!! So funny!!
We’ve been going to Silver Lake since I was a little kid. Some of my best memories.
Love that you are back in West Michigan. Pentwater, Silver Lake, and Grand Haven. Back camping in Billy the Printers yard on Spring Lake.
Welcome to Michigan!!! Hope it was all that you have expected it to be. We live in St. Clair Michigan with the worlds largest fresh water boardwalk. Pure Michigan. Thank you for the family channel that my family looks forward to watching.
Watching you all pick those blueberries took me back to RV'ing with my parents 40 years ago in England when we used to pick strawberries. Those are the memories that last. Thank you.
These videos just keep getting better and better, every season.
“Be the dunes.” You did. Well done.
Hi guys, love the PSA regarding the safe/potentially hoof in mouth disease water/dumping stations lol!
Also, my beloved wife wants the "reset" "refresh" of the rig days OFTEN! We get it! Gotta be in the clean machine!
Keep thee awesome video work coming. So helpful and informative.
Warmest regards,

What a FUN filled show tonight!! Lots of great action and the sound track at the dunes was phenomenal! Thanks, guys, for keeping it top notch!! :-)
Our family has been watching you guys since the beginning! Glad you guys enjoy Michigan. We enjoy camping here. Would be a joy to catch up at a Michigan park one day!
Thanks, guys! It warms my heart to see my old stompin' grounds; great cure for homesickness! :)
Oh my I miss Pentwater Mears and Silver lake. Hubby was born and raised around there in Hart. Lived in MI til 2013. Now in OK. Ludington State Park, great place to rv and you have Lake Michigan beach.

Nice rig, nice family, nice friends, nice life, bless you all. Thanks for the vid. cheers.

Its always a good episode when these two families get together!! What fun!
I’ll never look at dump stations and water stations the same way! Great tip.
Trish picking blueberries in her cute hat and John Lennon glasses: I don't know who I am right now!
Everyone watching: Trish is in her ELEMENT!
I have two blueberry bushes on either side of my dining room window and every spring I am in heaven as I get 2 cups of blueberries every day. Blueberries on the road would be priceless!
I love everything on this video. You're really inspiring, Leach Family!
Ahhhhhh... It is finally Sunday and I get to see KYD's latest. Thank you for sharing!!!
Woo Grand Haven, Silver Lake. Feels like home. Pure Michigan
I grew up in Northern Illinois and I have never seen Michigan like you have. Now I want to explore it again.
Love when these two families get together!
Charlie is so so SUPER cute 😍 and sweet!!!!! Love it when you go to Michigan because I camped in Traverse City with my brother, mom and twin nephews several years ago! Tent camping had NO rain that week and it was so memorable!! With your videos in Michigan especially with your friends keeps me wanting to go back with my husband and kids now!! But with our travel trailer.
Glad you had a successful time during Covid-19. My husband doesn't want to go anywhere until next year 😢
Great, great, great fun!!! 😃. I had a blast on this trip with you, riding those dune buggies in the sand!!! WOW!!!! And absolutely LOVED your selection of music!

Another great video Leach family...and Bill installing your own 50amp. now thats family..love Peggy 💗 ♥ 💓
How come Marc got all the fun driving the buggy?! Caleb nailed that awesome shot!!
Finally, my KYD fix for the week. (Gets me ready for the long work week...:)
My home state! Best place to vacation in the summer!!!
Really glad you made it back to MI. Mears SP was one of my first camping trips as a kid. BTW, it was great to meet you all at Elkhart GD RALLY’19, thanks Caleb for the golf cart rides!

I loved seeing you guys racing around the "dunes", I loved the tips about dumping stations and seeing Marc getting the hose when y'all lost it-I laugh each time because it is priceless, I loved the blueberry picking and pie baking, loved the piano playing and sing, and I adored Charlie chasing the ducks! So much fun in this video and it flew by so fast. I am assuming that Charlie came back home when called. Fun times with friends who are more like family! Hugs, Brenda
We are new to RVing...guess you veterans could call us "COVID-RVers" ugh. But anyway we LOVE your videos. They provide a good mix of educational stuff along with exploration and culture kinda vibe like a travel show. Very well done. I have learnt a lot from your videos and thank you for the effort you all put in. I just hope that other long timers don't hate us new RV-ers thinking that we jumped in just cuz of the pandemic. My wife and I have thought about RV-ing off an on but the pandemic certainly gave us a massive push to go do it. While there has been a MASSIVE steep learning curve toward towing, hitching, and so many other nuances, we have grown to love it a lot and hope to continue loving this even more as time goes by.
This is such quintessential summer fun! Plus, it’s always nice to have friends with such a beautiful place to host you. Definitely summer to remember material right here. ❤️
Ok 😱😱😱
Had to pause the video while I shrieked, gagged, then nearly fainted dramatically... Dumping the black tank then using the potable hose.. 🤮!
- The “NO” cartoon popping up was priceless.. Agreed!
Fun episode.. we visited Silver Lake a few years ago. Didn’t haul our side side from Oregon but rented a 4 seater so we could take my 94 yr old Mother in-law on her first dune ride! She loved it. BTW next time you come to Oregon be sure to check out the bigger dunes on the Central Coast. I’m surprised the Blueberry farm didn’t weigh Mark before and after and charge him by the pound ! 😂 safe travels..
Enjoy the great state of Michigan
I'm glad you enjoy our state as much as we do. We're glad to have you!
Someone may have already suggested this. I would take your truck to an auto glass place like Novus. They can grind the sharp edges of your windshield scratch and fill with clear filler and buff it back out. Will prevent a crack from forming later and will be almost invisible.
having worked around glass for years. you need glass polish with a with special brush attached to drill. Look up glass supplies and you will find a number of sources. being tempered glass will not completely remove but will minimize.
We live in Michigan. We were just camping at Silver Lake last weekend!
If you guys are still there I highly recommend visiting macwood Dune rides. It's basically a tour of the dunes with a ton of history involved. It's a great time.
Hope you enjoyed Michigan! So many great places to camp here!
This is why we got into Rving. We travel all over to ride.
Absolutely amazing friends that hooked up a spot for your rig! Michigan looks lovely 😍
I have picked blueberries..... hats off to you... love Charlie... glad he got to swim after the ducks..❤️😊
Cool that you are in Michigan! I live in Flint, and my daughter is in your area right now, camping. She and her family are moving to Mears soon, to be near a new job she has taken.
My yellow lab Jack had no impulse control when it came to ducks. What's worse is he was fast on land and in the water and he'd sell me out in a second to get his toes wet. One day he hit the afterburners on some ducks strolling down the canal. Jumped in and tore down after them in the water like a jet ski. To this day I will never forget the look on the ducks looking back at him realizing he was gaining on them then start paddling faster. When Jack was about to FINALLY get one of them... They realized they could fly and took off. He SMELLED TERRIBLE after swimming in the canal. I had to give him 3 baths. I miss that dog.
I love the music to back up the video. 👍😁. Safe travels.
Oh, to be young again... The kids sure seem to be having fun! An Charlie most of all!
Mothers aluminum polish mixed with hand cleaner with pumice. I use that mixture and a car polisher/buffer. It will take the scratch out of the glass
Advice on the windshield scratch. Four ott 0000 ultra fine steel wool and Comet cleaner and scrub and scrub and scrub. It will NOT scratch the glass. I've detailed cars and boats for 39 years so try it, you might be amazed.
just bought an rv because of you guys. gonna make some memories with my family im so excited to start!!!!!
We were there at Silver Lakes a month ago. Stayed at same State Park. Looks like you guys were right next to the road. We were further in, but what a challenge parking a fifth wheel toy-hauler, with all the trees. We brought our own Jeep and had fun on the dunes. Like your Grand Design Toy Hauler better than that Airstream though. Keep up the good work. Watch most of your videos.

I am so excited I found your channel!!!!!!! I have been binge watching all weekend My life is changed and the music edit is so well done Thankyou!!!!!!!
Thanks for all the great content you have done over the years
Silver Lake is beautiful . We have family in that area. They have 4x4 to run the dunes. We tried to water-skiing from the top of the dune onto Lake Michigan
That's a great idea! Refresh day every 2 weeks.
OMG! That flew by! Blueberry heaven! Teen girls and teen boys?? Blueberry pie? "Include me in."
