    We're at Thunder Canyon Campground right now and it's everything John and Mercedes have said it is and more. We have a beautiful site, it has been so relaxing to be here. Everyone has been so friendly (and helpful when the AC went out on our rental Class C in 98 degree weather!). We'll definitely be back. Thanks for your wonderful hospitality! :)

I can't begin to imagine how much work this has taken, what you have created is nothing short of fabulous! We plan to come visit, we'd love to become Odd Squad members, but fuel prices have our wings clipped a bit right now.

    In many cases replacing the thermocouple (cheap) on old gas appliances will bring them back to life. Older mechanical equipment was built to last almost forever. The new mass-produced devices....appliances, cars, electronics....5 to 10 years max life.
    The electronic circuit boards that go into every device will often fail within a few years due to latent material defects and low quality standards in "country of origin" production facilities such as those in China.

I was there during the Preparation H event and have to say I was in tears watching this vid. Best of luck moving forward and hope Skippy heals fast. I WILL be returning to Thunder Canyon.

    Well, I have been following you, folks, for years and I am disappointed. You say over and over how great this place is and now you are wanting to pass it to others and head to another. Have you considered stopping "chasing something better" and making that place your home? It is a ton of work and if you let others "take care" it will not be your dream. What would happen if something happened to one of you and you are trying to flip the next campground. I think you are tired because it is too much work. I am speaking from experience by doing work for farm, getting bigger farm because "the first was not enough" and I wore myself plum out and I had to sell my dream and pretty much cannot do physical labor. All because I constantly strove for more and better and did not enjoy it once I got there. But, I am sure you won't agree and can't see it. It's your life.

    It's been such a beautiful, wonderful thing to get to be allowed in to watch as you go through real life things and just continue to walk in faith and grow stronger and closer. Sage is just blossoming like crazy and even with the challenges of undertaking Thunder Canyon, as a couple you seem even more in love, at peace, and cemented as a team.❤️
    Your story is beautiful and inspiring. I think a lot of people could learn a lot from it about humility, forgiveness, selflessness, and teamwork. And most importantly, how much God truly does love us and cares about our concerns and needs. No matter what comes, He's there lifting us, carrying us, comforting us, strengthening us, blessing us to get through it all.
    You are a blessing to so many. I am so very tickled for you and so very proud of all the amazing hard work everyone has done to make Thunder Canyon so amazing.

    Why not stay & finish the project.
    It used to be a real part of the community.
    Now it's a members only park.
    I saw at least 6 Scout Eagle projects that could be done there.
    Now I see the plan.
    You are now a big business. Campground flippers.

      Well I have been.
      More members only campgrounds.
      Now you both are back in big business.
      Thought the business world was what was causing you both issues in your marriage a few years ago when you started this journey of full time RV life.
      Good luck this time.

      What a great and wonderful idea to use undeveloped land to make more campgrounds for people to go to and learn about RVs before they spend thousands of dollars on purchasing an RV. The RV Odd Squad community sounds like ABSOLUTELY the MOST GENEROUS and KINDEST PEOPLE EVER! God is AWESOME!

    I would love to see some vegetable garden boxes. This is perfect to grow there and to help folks learn to grow their own vegetables. With the world changing people need to go back to the core and learn what it is like to hunt, grow and forage for their food.

When it happens let us know. Our retirement is coming up soon. Ha, ha I’m glad you included the chickens! God’s Blessings to you all and the squad.

Makes everyone really feel like they have a special place there. Our favorite part is he fact that you go into the fellowship hall and start your day off with prayer. Praying for your next adventure.

    I would like to rent your RV or cabin. My husband will not get a camper so I want to experience Thunder Canyon. I have followed you all the way back when you started your You Tube channel and love everything you both stand for. I will buy a membership to Thunder Canyon as long as you do not need to be an RVer to have one. John I was a Brownie then Girl Scout all the way up to a Cadet. As a mother of 2 boys I became a Cub Scout leader., so I know very well your dedication to God, family and country. I have been a Christian since my early years, and know the heartbreak you have experienced seeing what has happened over the last few years. Your family and the people you have identified with sound like my kind of people. I will continue to pray for all of you as you start out on your new adventure. All my love Pattie from PA.

    turning Thunder Canyon around from what it was to what it is now definitely required someone with contractor experience and knowledge of many of the same skills needed for commercial/home building. Maintaining the campground is important too but can be done at a slower pace. Looking forward to your next Campground renewal project starting.
