I sure hope you kept a Crystal as a souvenir. Beautiful!

Thank y'all for takin the time to appreciate Texas. She ain't conventionally beautiful in some spots but she is mighty and she is a sight ta see. We got some fine sunsets too. Hope y'all enjoyed!

Texas!!!! Y'all are in my state! I just camped in the Ozarks using your videos to find some cool places. I feel Texas is underrated . There's so many different landscapes. Come to East Texas and visit the Piney Woods!

We have so much to explore in Texas. Were happy you finally got to camp in the Ozarks! We hope it was relaxing.

Thanks for showing us Rancho Tapanga . We are going to stay there after Christmas with several of our friends.

We camped in the Chisos basin in 1966. We had a tarp, two cots, and a three year old with us. It was an adventure. We still talk about it from time to time.

Hello Kelly & Cody, I have been watching you folks for a couple of years now and I just want to say I love your channel. I first stumbled onto or rather YT algorithims connected me to your channel in Oct. 2021 when I had CV19 and was not able to work. I am a native Texan, born in the high plains desert country of Kermit Texas. Raised in San Antonio. I love Big Bend also like you all do. I helped a business in Houston that did outback trips to Big Bend and it was amazing. The people and the country and the whole ambience of West Texas and Big Bend is just so enchanting. Thanks for all your hard work creating these videos for us all…❤

La Jitas (Hee-tas) You we’re almost there! 😂

Preserves on the English muffin with thick bacon and flipped eggs.. . Love your cooking style. Utilitarian gormet!!

Just got back from a trip to Big Bend. We also stayed at Camp Topanga. We ended up doing most of the hikes in the National Park and most of the unmaintained roads in a Jeep. A very beautiful area and away from everything. One of the highlights was the stars and seeing the Milky Way. Great couple of videos of the park so far.

Great music with it , production.

You've done the best tour I've seen of this area. I love the walk around and talking. 7 minutes and saying how long it takes is great. I missed the name of the little spot or the little town with the shops what was the name of it? I love the way you guys put together your KZread videos. It's important to know locations names of streets weather where the chicken where to check out how long it takes to get from here to there when planning a trip so this is awesome. Probably getting gasoline nearest gas station and stuff would probably also be helpful. I know when I traveled from I think it was Austin to the coast no gas stations were open after 8:00 p.m.

I love Terlingua we stayed on some property not far from the cotton wood store. The landscape is amazing but very dusty. There's a lot of new buildings and campsites being built all over which is both good and bad. Good for the economy but bad for the limited resources in the area, water and trash are an issue. The locals are friendly and will tell you their reasons for living there, the main reason seems to be a love for the outdoors and a quest for solitude, these days solitude is not what it used to be and some people are leaving because of the development.

la-HE-tas……those are all new buildings, there used to be just a general store there….try turning off your noise reduction to fix that, or crank up the iso….i hope yall ate in Presidio, there is a pretty church there…

Just got back from Terlingua yesterday. After you made a comment about flying drones in the NP, I looked it up. It appears that it is illegal. Why, I don't know. I was out photographing in Terlingua and the NP, but using a regular camera.

You guys eat good. I live in Texas and have never been to that area. I need to go.

Was the drone permit easy to get? I know of only 2 Texas state parks allow drones but others will give you a permit sometimes. National parks not at all.

Amazing couple of vlogs in Turlingua Texas. We really enjoyed them. Kelly, I'm the griller and between my wife and I for the most part. And really enjoy watching you cook some of your specialties. And Cody, I have a specific question for you. Did you self teach yourself on drone operation, or did you learn from somebody. It gets better every week. And who or how did you operate the drone during your mountain biking while you both were riding together. A lot of shots were clear that neither of you were using the controller. Does that somehow remotely follow you two. We are fully invested and looks like we are planning a vacation to Arkansas in September. Keep up the great vlogs.

Hello! Thanks for watching. Taught myself how to fly the drone. I played video games when I was younger and I really think it helped. The DJI has a tracking mode where it focuses on one person and will fly itself to track it.

I just finished watching this beautiful video, I really love it. By the way I liked that nice acoustic guitar music that start playing in the background when you guys finish biking on the Crystal trail (Minute 9:00), do you happen to know the name of that music? thanks and keep the good work.
