Camping at retirement age
Camping First Timer at 57
We have owned 4 campers including this Keystone Outback Terrain and this is the first time we have taken one on the open road and actually spent more than one night camping. We learned a lot. We even went RV/camper shopping!
As first timers, him 60 and her 57, we made some rookie mistakes like forgetting pillows. So after properly hooking up the sewer, water and 30 AMP power, we went to tow in Greenville, NC and found some at Big Lots. The first morning we had breakfast at Buiscutville because we had never been but then the next day we cooked on the outdoor camper kitchen stove.

Ok, tight t shirt and short shorts. I fell for it.
Dat goat curry will butt you with the flavor. 😊 I loved your style of glamping. What an enjoyable video from all 4 of you! Thank you for sharing and hope you do more camping sooner.😊
thats really nice , the dog is happy
Jen got the same thing i always get at Biscuitville. Very good.
Wow, first time in that rig. FWIW using an rv fridge while not level, is inviting a fire. We know, we lost our rig 4 weeks ago, fridge burst into flames, while sitting idle on driveway. It’s the leading cause of rv fires, according to our insurance folks. Be careful, absorption fridges are diff than at home
Virginia is for lovers, thats a good one for you two!
Sarasota Tim would be envious of your content.
Haven't seen a video from either of you in a few years. Poor Banshee Moon has as many scars as my wife Deanna - we married tough and tender hearted women! Blessings to the two of you!
Y’all are an inspiration to me. I’m supporting you on Patreon too! Continue to enjoy your lives together! 👍🏾
Good video first time I’ve seen you guys very enjoyable. Looking forward to the next video.

Welcome aboard and thank you!
I've been told that putting the jacks down slightjy twists the chassis. And since the slideouts are installed with the jacks UP, they will be out of alignment and eventually damage themselves if they are moved while the jacks are down, because of that chassis twist. May not be true, but it does sound possible.
Ty for the video ❤
"GO GO" "Slow Go" And "No Go" of retirement! Which one are YOU? Exoman just realized he still has enough time left for some "GO GO!" Well done my man, we are on the later end and need to use our time wisely. :)

Love some biscuiteville. They actually originated in my hometown of Burlington, NC. The owner had an Italian place called Pizzaville and started selling his mothers biscuits. The rest is history.

I'm quite the biscuit fan, myself. Like a nice muffin, too. 😁
I am 70 now, and my wife refuses to camp. I mostly camp out of the back of my pickup, but recently picked up a Shiftpod tent for some more leisure time camping. What I am most interested in is, where can I pick up one of those neat Jen gadgets you got there. Something tells me she would come in real handy in helping set up camp. 😘 Do they come with batteries, or do I need to supply my own? 🤔🤨
I used to outside pikeville nc...travel eastern half of NC setting up funerals been to ayden many times.
I wish I had the time to do what y’all are enjoying. 6 more years before retirement.
Nice looking out for the Turtle.
Thanks for the camping trip. Next stop is James Town, Virginia. Only about 200 miles from me. Y'all be safe and blessed 😁🇺🇸
nice one...
I'm with you. Those citronella candles don't work worth a damn. :)

Best part of the video except to beautiful Banshee Moon ❤❤❤ Procol Harum concert with Gary Brooker 🎶🎵🎹
You really need something under those stabilizers. We used to have a travel trailer and broke one of our stabilizers cause we didn’t use anything. Some sites are not as level as they might be so not extending those stabilizers all the way to the ground will keep your rig from shaking when you walk around. Get some slide out stabilizers too.
Stumbled on your channel and about fell out of my recliner. I’ve stayed at Whispering Oaks a time or two, last time we were there about 2-3 weeks ago we were offered the spot right up along side the same barn! Funny seeing that on your channel!
Yall ever get down to South Georgia give me a shout for a free night. Shady Grove RV Park.
What do you mean old people. You two look pretty young. Enjoy watchin g. !!!!
You guys look great awesome video. My wife looks and dresses like your wife except she has blond hair guys hit on her and take her picture everywhere we go all day long at first it bugged the crap outa me now im like whatever snap away.
Enjoy
you doing any banshee moon videos anymore? like the spay tan van, what spray gun & spray lotion is used?
We have had to make Turtle crossing signs here in B.C.
Never buy one with slide outs. They break all the time. Nice video

Probably best to just leave the camera on her.
At 21.42 it looks likes you only have half of the anti-sway system hooked up. I thought a a full anti-sway system has either sway bars or some sort of chains on both sides of the hitch system to not only level everything out and slow the sway of the trailer.
Shes retired?... in uk its 67 looking at changing to 71 , damn she looks good for that age
Never used the 3 they have had but hell let’s get another one
Heres the job I would like to have. KOA has MYSTERY CAMPERS. You go to an Rv park check in, camp and when you are ready to leave, you fill out a camping experience report that KOA corporate gives you & you leave a copy with the parks check in desk & be on your way. KOA will reimburse you for your campground expenses. !

Hi I just came across this u tube video and it caught my eye as it started out with you being spray tanned. I was wondering if you could share the one you use and the color you like. I have gone thru so many brands of self tanners and they all leave me freckled. a sprayer is my last resort as tanning isnt an option anymore. My husband and I are at the age where we are trying to decide what are best option is for an RV so we look forward to watching more of ur videos and getting a feel how u guys handle pulling a trailer and work aroud the pups. we have 1 big golden retriever. looking forward to any feedback u have to offer

We sell our own. www.etsy.com/shop/bansheemoon Note that, the spots or freckles really don't have anything to do with the brand. It is just that some of us have very dry spots that pick up more DHA and get tanner. Try applying lotion an hour before tanning, it may help a lot.

If it rains you want one side of your awning lower than the other so water runs off and doesn't puddle on the awning.

Ya know I here people call this camping. And I maybe old school perhaps really old school but when I went camping it was with a rucksack , sleeping bag some things to build a shelter and if needed and cook with. These things that have wheels are motorhomes a mobile house if you will , with the comforts of home it's not really camping is it ?

Not meaning to offend but here is your honest answer. It is indeed camping. Just as you can't understand the use of the term camping for this, I cannot understand the compulsion of sooo many men to belittle forms other than their rugged preference. There are levels or types of camping. I hitchhiked across country when I was 14/15 years old without the comforts you enjoyed. I had no sleeping bag and slept on the side of the road, under overpasses etc. Came very close to death more than twice. I got from Denver to new Orleans with my brother and our few bits of clothing and belongings were stolen. Had to hitchhike back to Denver with the cloths on our backs in September with almost no money. I could say you haven't experienced roughing it until you've walked in my shoes but that would just turn into a macho pissing match. What's the point? I enjoy taking a camper to a campground and having a campfire as much as I enjoyed hiking into the wilderness above Estes Park in the Colorado Rockies as a boy with friends and camping on the ground. If you always need to compare what your doing to what the other guy is doing, that kind takes away from your endeavor.
I don’t know much about selling RVs. But what kind of payment are you looking at? Cash or finance? Lol!
What happened to Jens Arm?
Old?...lol...we are 65, and camp ALL the time.
Yes it does
Go buy a hammock you'll enjoy it a hell of a lot more
Felicidades por la mujer hermosa que tienes a tu lado valorala😊😊
It's fun to go camping with Grandpa.
Wow! That looks just like the place I saw yesterday. Sure would like a man cave like that. Maybe next year. Have a great year.
4:14 you are emptying your sewer without an gloves on ?
Dayum mama.
Don’t leave black tank valve open even while hooked up to sewer. The gas will come back into camper .
Perfect rig for 2 + pooches 😃
I’m sure she may not be kiln. But I swear your wife looks like she could be the sister to someone I know from Kernersville NC.
Hello.. I am nearly 70 years old and still love camping. It makes me feel younger and walking does me good. Well done both of you age is a number so just enjoy what you have as i have health issues and do not go out as yet. My doctors are pleased with me but i have to have an operation on my eyes so cannot see properly as yet.. Take care and be safe in your future plans. Regards Mick.... Chef-on-the-wild-side... X
The woman costs more than any camping trip no matter the age!
Looks like a great trip! Keep going and it will get easier
BVille is the best.
Somebody likes to show his wife off to the world. Lol. But I guess clickbait on the thumbnail gets more views. Congrats 👍😻
Bring on the gravy or honey... I don't care which!!
If this is what people think is beautiful camping, we're in trouble as a species.
That looked like a lot of fun, seemed like for the most part, you remembered everything, I've never camped in a campsite before, very handy everything they have for your camper. I've wanted to try biscuitville before, those sandwiches looked delicious. Thanks for sharing this Exoman and Jenn
