The way Ben told the story about spreading his mom's ashes instead of Borax was hilarious. I am sorry for Ben's loss though. Love your guys videos

One thing we try to keep in our 5-er closet is a hoodie we’ve treated to be water repellent. Helps on Misty days and when you just aren’t sure what the weather will hold. Love watching your adventures. Retiring in a couple of months and planning to be traveling a lot more.

Great video, I LOL! I loved Dakotas face when you said "Charity improved with age", so cute. Might I add that your kids are so adorable, really sweet, and I love the connection you all have. You can't buy THAT at any store (even Buccees😄)!! Amazing parenting right there! So glad I found your channel so long ago, it's been fun watching them grow up into awesome young adults.

I spent a lovely weekend about 10 years ago in Savannah and it didn't disappoint! Thanks for taking me back to great memories.

LOVE the talking dog

I love Buc-ees. We live near Daytona and have been there several times. We love the brisket. The first time I walked in there, I was amazed that the store was so big and that they have grocery carts. I was also impressed with the size of their restrooms. It seems like no matter what time of the day we are there, Buc-ees is always busy.

Thank you for sharing your adventures. Those geodes look amazing!!! Sympathies on the Borax/BenMom confusion.

You guys are a wonderful family, love following all of your adventures! We've RV'd to Savannah several times, a beautiful, historic old city. As you noted, depending on the time of year you are there, it can be very crowded.

We have never been to Savannah GA. Looks like a great town as long as you remember where you park your car…..lol. That was funny! We can’t wait to visit our first Buccee’s in April.

The story about the ashes cracked me up. My parents have traveled with my paternal grandmother's ashes on a few of their trips with the idea of spreading her somewhere. I could see them making the same mistake accidentally. I've not been to Savannah yet, it's definitely on my to-visit list!

We live in GA. We camped at Skidaway last year. Bonus they even have full hookups. I really like how large and private many of the sites are. Love Savannah! Glad you went in the spring as the summers are hotter than 3 layers of hell!

We have a trip to Savannah planned for Sept. & we are staying at Skidaway State Park. Loved seeing this video.

I have a thing for doors and windows! Looks like that state park was gorgeous. We LOVE Buc-ee's!!

My middle son was born in Savannah when we were stationed at Ft Stewart. I have a signed cookbook by Mrs Wilkes. Love that place and Savannah!

Buckeyes smoked turkey sandwich is great also…..

We have been to that Bucee's many times and as it has become more popular, it has become an absolute ZOO. I am surprised you were able to find a parking space. Many people will park at the gas pumps, go inside to shop and then return to their vehicles and sometimes not even buy gas; and of course this adds to the congestion. They need some sort of pump monitor personnel stationed outside to discourage this kind of behavior. We go there because of the low gas price (they are located near a Sam's Club and compete on price) but with the congestion, it really does not seem to be worth the hassle.

Omg Buck-ees!!!! Haha we just discovered them going across the country to Florida on our way to Disney World. How funny. We stopped at about 3 of them. They have the best sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches there. We went a lot of money each time. One thing I didn't like, was people get gas and then just leave their car there. We got blocked in cause we were waiting for someone to finish in front of us, then the guy finished, and left his car there. What an ass. He knew we were waiting in our huge 40 ft Rv to get gas, and looked at us as he walked away. We had to wait till he came back and move. His wife was yelling at him because he.left his car and we were still there.

We also visited Savannah but took the trolley tour. You should have asked us for tips. Fun fact the white fountain in Forsyth park was assembled incorrectly. We were about 3 weeks ahead of you and a lot colder.

I HAVE A BETTER SOLUTION FOR AN RV SITE IN SAVANNAH. And for lots of other places: join both the Elks & the Moose. They have lodges in many cities, and "some" have spaces that a member with an RV can use overnight(s) for a donation or a small fee. The Elks have such a lodge very close into downtown Savannah. YES. Get an electric only RV site for a donation within 20 minutes of downtown Savannah. My wife and I stayed there 2 nights on a recent trip. And yes, we were also amazed at so few campsites that were available elsewhere in the area. BTW, by joining both the Elks & Moose, you will be helping them do good in their communities. Enjoy.

My husband and I visited Mrs. Wilkes in 2010. We had quite the experience while we were there. The line waits outside, but then they bring about a half a dozen people at a time inside when your table is going to be ready within a few minutes. While we were waiting inside, I noticed that an elderly man to my left started choking. I immediately pointed it out to my husband, who knows CPR better than I do, and he sprung into action. When the Heimlich didn’t work, he laid the man on the ground and began CPR, while I went outside to let everyone know that there was going to be a delay and that I would bring more information as soon as possible. Everyone stopped serving and eating to see what happened. Little prayer circles popped up all around the dining room and kitchen. The ambulance arrived quickly and took over for my husband, but the man, Mike, didn’t regain consciousness before the ambulance took him away. We were very concerned because the ambulance didn’t speed away with lights and sirens as we expected. It just rolled away slowly and did the speed limit with no fanfare. We have always wondered how the rest of the day went for Mike, but I’m sad to say that we weren’t too optimistic.
