Driving to the West, The Movie: Cross Country Road Trip from Florida to California

One man's dream to drive cross country in order to visit both major winter RV shows in one week, and the largest nomad gathering in the country. The journey begins in Tampa, Florida all the way to Oceanside, California.
In this feature film I document my travels in early 2018, from Tampa, Florida to Oceanside California. I spend a few days in the Arizona desert meeting up with some friends.

I saw it was 3 hours long and thought to myself, there's no way I'm watching this all and guess what? I did. You have a way of talking and presenting your videos that makes it a very engaging and enjoyable experience. It's like I'm taking the trip and doing it also. Thanks a great adventure.

    How can you not be in a position to do something like this? Everybody has hard things in life but unless you just can't drive, have medical issues, or some other unknown I don't see why not. State parks are 20-40$ a night and dispersed campsites are free, heck walmart or cracker barrel park. Use a high gas mileage car so you don't tow. You can do a month trip for less than a grand that way. I am going to do 24 days with a family of 6 for right around 1G minus gas "8 dispersed sites" 8 federal sites 10-20$, and cali just went up to 40$ on most of their sites :( so 320 for cali camping alone.. from 25 to 35 then an extra "fee%" then having to pay park fees... cali will be 700 of it and 5,500ish miles soon. Gas We 975$@3.89x13 tanks. Just say 1G with an oil change before and after :). You could cut that 2 G in half if you split it with somebody, then by 1/4 if you split it 4 ways...

    Bravo, Traveling Robert! Time well spent. I'm a video professional, and you have taught me volumes on story telling, making visuals interesting, editing, the power of great soundtrack, etc. It was like a Master Class for me! You make it look so easy, but I know better - the hours of work and decision making were probably as big an effort as the driving, if not more so. Thank you for pulling it all together and making it work like it was a breeze!

    My Dad was German and lived out half his retired life in a camper like this guy's, describing his own travels in an accent just as thick. He spent the last few years of his life in Ft. Myers at an RV park while working as a baker at the Hyatt. Dad finished his 55 year stay on American soil the same way he started it: Baking and traveling. (actually his first vehicle in this country was a boat, and he took it to work on the Hudson River in NJ each day). He found work wherever he went and pretty much "died with his apron strings on", exactly as he vowed he would. Dad also for a time had a pop-up camper that he pulled around in a Jetta Wagon. Seriously, just being inside of this guy's station wagon and hearing his accent gives me goosebumps. The truth his he is way closer to my age than Dad's,.though..Dad would have just turned 81 and I just turned 50. Dad's been gone for 6 years now...but I still get to hear a nice accent when I travel with my wife. She's from Peru!

    I have discovered your channel and sub'd a few days ago. I love travelling from my armchair mostly and I feel like I'm actually travelling when I watch your amazing videos. I have a fifth wheel on some land in Florida, so I always get itchy to get there 2-3 times a year for 1-2 months at a time. I'm from Florida, grew up in the panhandle, but I have learned so much about the state just watching your videos. Things I never knew. The Destin video, took me home again, grew up north of there and visited the Destin/Ft. Walton/Panama City areas so many times..now I'm homesick, again, lol.Oh and of course your voice is so soothing with a touch of humor. One cannot help but smile when listening to you. Very pleasant. I also discovered your intro song is all yours and you are singing it. I'm a roadtrip singer, but you are a real singer...singing voice is top-knotch.Ok, now you are travelling across my old home areas in this video also. Thanks for sharing your talents, awesome videography!

    I just discovered this channel, better late than never! I made the 1-10 journey five times round trip from Key West to Santa Monica (later Beverly Hills when my friend moved) to visit my childhood buddy. I hate to fly. He would fly to see me in KW where I lived for 20 years and I would drive out west to visit him. Twice I made the drive with my blind, diabetic dog. She was the best travel buddy. Sadly she passed away after 17 years and sadly so did my dear friend who was also diabetic. He was only 48. Anyway, Texas is a looong state. So is FL when you drive up and down the east coast which I have done many times as well. The longest stretches are San Antonio to El Paso and Jacksonville to Key West. Texas smells like BBQ and the gas is cheap. I've heard gunshots in both states while stopping for rest or fuel but never in any other state. Once I drove for what seemed like forever through TX and the only other living thing I saw on the ground was a coyote. I love to drive, it's great to not be in a hurry and enjoy the journey. You have an awesome RV, I'm so jealous! I stayed in hotels, wish I had an RV like yours. My favorite hotel is in Tucson, AZ. I broke down on my way from CA to FL on 1-10 just off the exit to the El Conquistador where I stayed with my dog for 3 days while my car was being fixed. Great cabins with fireplaces (dog friendly) and orange trees outside the door with big juicy oranges. Your video is bringing back memories of all my cross country adventures. Maybe we passed each other. Have fun and Happy Trails!
