Did you know that it is actually frowned upon to leave your car unattended while pumping gas? Places I've worked at would stop your gas pump until you got back out to your car so you could watch it filling up. To make sure that the hose didn't pop out of your car and spill gas everywhere. That is one reason a lot of gas stations still have employees pumping your gas for you.

Even though things may not have gone to plan, it was still an entertaining video! Most of us watch your videos for your personality so just keep being yourself!

You need to carry a map for situations like this

I don't know exactly how you lost your campsite. However, what I do is pitch the cheapest Walmart tent when I leave my campsite. That way nobody can take it while I'm out running around. 👍

That view of Crater Lake looks like a green screen…absolutely breathtaking!

Cool rig, be careful cooking in trunk, A nice little cook set-up away from vehicle to avoid it catching fire and leaving you stranded while off-grid. Safe travels!

That pinch in with the beat in the intro was perfect!

Maria out in this world with a plan based on a dream, she has a wonderful dog, great sense if humor .and is doing all this solo..that takes courage & gumption. And in this crazy ass world she prolly kind of trusts most viewers are not bid creeps..choices and freedom..I like want you do a d who you are..not that others opinions matter. Soooo thank M Blue n Ru..

She really loves that doggy So good to see ☺️

The lake looked stunning. Thanks 👍

I’m so happy you got to see the stunningly beautiful Crater Lake on a beautiful clear day! I’ve been there 4 times in the last 5 years, and 3 of those times it was so smokey from wildfires you could barely see the lake! “In this economy!?!?” Haha

You should give Map quest a try when others fail. Also missy.. driving your Ru in 4th gear because it sticks in 5th is robbing your fuel economy and will do harm to the transmission. Its easier to fix that issue then to keep forcing RU's transmission to work harder. I know just throwing my 2 cents out there.

We took a trip out west years ago and saw 12 national parks including Yosemite Sequoia Kings canyon Crater Lake all the parks in Utah the Grand canyon etc. Anyway out of the mall to me Crater Lake was the most stunning unforgettable. That water is so royal blue with diamonds all over the top and I just fell in love! ❤️💯‼️

I always think of getting lost as seeing things I wouldn't otherwise see. 🙂

U remind me a lot of vancityvanlife.Just a person and their dog making the most out of life.

Ayyyyy love the frequent vlogs 🔥😍

Ugh, Southern Oregon in Aug… 😝 Actually anywhere you go in Oregon and Washington in Aug is usually going to be hot. I hate the heat but I live in the NW so… what can ya do? Oh don’t get me started on Google maps!! Google Maps have gotten people stuck on logging roads in deep snow in Oregon a few times. If google ever tells you to take a road in the winter that makes you go “whaaat?” DON’T TAKE IT!!

U should of drove all the way around crater lake great camping at Kelseyville Valley by diamond lake,crater lake to bad

A good plan is a flexible plan.

Get a paper atlas and double check your route !

I get a bit jealous when you say 4,51 per gallon while it’s 2,26 or something per liter over here. 😩. It’s so pretty there! Nice video ❤

"this is a hate crime" 😂😂

Next time you are in the PNW you should visit Hood River OR and go to Lost Lake area

I drove truck for years always have an atlas with you when you travel. I'm just getting started with camping adventures. Who knows maybe one day we'll run into each other in our travels!! I really enjoy your channel, happy trails!!!

this happens to me with google maps when I lose cell service

What a beautiful lake, thanks for the ride along, and yes google maps does the wrong or changes directions all the time to many people,

My sister would totally agree with you on the Google maps.She has been sent on the 2 hour detour before.The lake is beautiful.

I'm writing in like 3 Rd or forth person weird ha. Thank you for all that effort in drone footage. Time consuming...I know..you are awesome..not matter how a day unfolds you smile. That's big woman 🎶😃

I live a couple of hrs from there

I HATE GOOGLE MAPS!!! My son had programmed it so I could make it to the interstate, but it had me turn on a dirt road, that was barely a single lane, had wash outs, HUGE RUTS, and then soft powder sand. I had to do more than a 3 point turn to make a u-turn with my minivan to turn around and get back to asphalt. I pulled out my trusty old Trucking Map (Rand McNally Atlas) and found my way to the Interstate!! And by the way, that dirt trail led to a ranch, private property! Never ever trust Google Maps! Your camp site is beautiful!

As a travel nurse, me and google maps have been fighting for years. Once it took me off the interstate onto a deserted highway 2 hours out of my way!!!! I was furious

Love you too ❤️❤️❤️

Omg I detest Google maps! I cant tell you how many times it let me waaayyy off course! I feel your frustration especially in this day and time! Mayb you should pre download the maps while you are online and have service cuz I bet when your phone hits a no service zone it screws up the map.

Hey beautiful friend I know it was along crazy day for you and blue I wish a better day next video🙂

May I suggest a Garmin GPS. I've always had good luck with that and use my phone as a backup.

Sometimes it’s like that! Still loved the vlog!

LOL There are these things on paper called maps. Once they are printed they never change, although eventually some roads may grow up with alder saplings. I live on the opposite side of the Continental divide from Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Two years ago Google Maps sent a continual stream of lost Kansans out on a dead end gravel road in our valley in search of the Park entry (100 miles. a 9,000 foot mountain pass, and 2.5 hours away). With those magic toys, always trust but verify!

Hola 👋 amiga . María have you ever been to Puerto Rico if not it wasn't you I saw.😉😁

“I feel like google is targeting me” 🤣🤣🤣

I've had issues with Google maps this week myself. I always keep a backup paper map. Preferably a Rand McNally.

I’ve noticed that since the pandemic started, Google maps has been garbage and I actually started using Apple Maps again since I swore off of it years ago. Imagine going down a straight road and Google maps tells you to turn right to go up a block, left to go down a block, and then left to go over a block, just to KEEP GOING DOWN THE SAME STRAIGHT ROAD! Long story short (too late, I know) I understand the anger and I am now a full time Apple Maps supporter which I never thought I’d see the day lol

That's why you get a Garmin too. Trust, but verify!

i had my dad ordered the st St. Nickerdoodle from north pole Maria and hi bule

look when it comes to GPS don't just hit the button and go. one look over the rout so you have an idea where you should be going. two have a back up. three check your settings. make sure things are set the way you like.

Google maps did the same thing to me while I was in Oregon, this last summer. Fortunately I knew where I was at he time, and that Google was full of it.

Crater Lake is such a beautiful area. How are things progressing on replacing Ru? I just watched Maria Alice's latest episode and she is going to sell her van, you might want to check that out. Safe journeys.

11:50 "In this economy?!" 🤣🤣🤣 Every now and then I'll forget to switch Google Maps from biking directions to driving directions, and I'll get some funky route with a ridic ETA. Waze is my backup when Google gets lost.

Use Waze Maps. I’ve ran into the same issue. I understand the frustration.

Google maps sent me down a steep hill in the middle of nowhere on a road trip when it was icy and raining. I thought I would sight see but it was scary.

Hey Blue

Bada bing bada boom.

I’m headed to crater lake Oregon this summer. Can someone tell me where I can dispersed camp near there? Thanks

Use Waze next time😎

Googles done that to me as well 🙄

@@roamingreckless you look young (early 20s). Age is not a big deal, as long as you are old enough to have a driver's license. The reason why I mentioned age was because you had a vibrant and energetic personality, and that could keep you on the road forever. I work a lot and never go anywhere anymore, so I'm considering buying a campervan and spend weekends on the road.

I'm horrible at guessing age. Of course the 12 was an exaggeration, on my part, but it fit the sequence of 2. Regardless of Maria's age, I 'm rooting for her, and that she accomplishes everything that she is committed to accomplish. Thank you for your reply and great sense of humor, with this caveman (me).

Apple maps is superior

What a beautiful lady you are

Really nice dog. and glad you are seeing so much of the beautiful outdoors. I will be short on the comments because, honestly, I found this pretty annoying. 2 things, however. Expecting Google Maps to be your guide is not even remotely reasonable in backwoods areas. there are things called - advanced planning for road conditions and an actual old school paper map as back-up. Second- you used about as much plastic for groceries in this single video as I use in a month. i am sorry- that is indeed, a little judgmental but trying to keep it real. I live in the Pacific Northwest, love these places exactly because they have ample availability of foods packaged more sustainably or in bulk and I cannot tell you how many times I (and surely others) have had to draw maps for drivers who use GPS and apps like google maps and then blame the app for lack of planning. But hopefully you enjoyed the beauty and learned some good life lessons and most of all, i hope you continue to live this life of exploration. Not many people are that adventurous. Best to you.

Nervous breakdowns are not something to laugh about!!

Use Apple Maps so much better

Google maps is trash

How are your teeth so white and you drink coffee everyday

you should always carry a US paper map(book) for when wifi gps or satellite are not available , that`s why you can get lost for hrs trying to find yourself !

Gaslit by Google. Blue and the film crew on edge today.

I know I'm late to the party here, but I use Waze and Love it! Trust it more then Google! Keep up the good work on the videos!
