You’re giving my sister and I ideas….🌲🌳🏕️
Oh good! There’s lots to do up there! Thank you for watching!
Totally cool! Thanks for these clips! Good ideas and places to go.
Oh I’m glad! Thank you for watching!
Used to live up there in my hippie days. Slept outside in the pouring rain at Henry Cowell in a leaky tent. With the flu. Good times! Seriously. Being outside when you are young is awesome.
Yes! we had a lot of good times in Felton and Ben lomond in the early 70’s. Henry Cowell is still one of my favorites state parks! Thank you for watching!
@@roadtrekingwithroandlo4823 My friend’s father ran the quarry up there. It’s pretty cool place. Loved when they turned the church into a library.
My favorite part of Port Orford is definitely Agate Beach because it has the Pacific Ocean on one side with Garrison Lake on the other.
Yes it’s a beautiful area! Thank you for watching!
@@roadtrekingwithroandlo4823 U R welcome
Wtf? Hwy 138 is pure dirt n Joshua's by me...
Hwy 5 to Hwy 138 to Crater Lake NP is perfect road all the way through to Crater Lake. June 30th, 2024
Loved our visit absolutely beautiful
That was a fantastic stop for us also! Thank you for watching our channel!
🇸🇪
lol! 😆
I LOVE saltwater taffy. It’s always a pleasant surprise when you find a candy story with taffy when on a vacation. It’s expensive now a days but it’s so good!
They had a huge assortment here. We bought a mixed pound and have been working it over. Thank you for watching!
I was there
Cool place! Thank you for watching!
I take my daughter to Texas state aquarium, I'd love to be able to take her there!
It’s really a nice place! Thank you for watching!
Oooh! Looks gorgeous! Im gonna book it! I want to see a pine marten!
We loved pine marten campground! Great campground host and trout fishing. You won’t be disappointed! Enjoy!! Happy camping!
Beautiful photography.my grandparents used to take me there and San Simeon. My wife and son go up there when we can.love the central coast
Thank you both are great places! I’m glad you enjoyed our channel! Thank you for watching!
I was going to send this to a friend who is going with us in July, but just couldn’t do it!
The Biltmore is such a fantastic place the gardens are forever changing. Enjoy your time up there and thank you for watching! You can hit the share button and copy and paste the link to your friends messages.
Hi.. Just came across your lovely video. By chance would you know what A-Loop sites are basically waterfront? I was looking at the map and other pictures but it's a little confusing to me. Like your site is gorgeous! Would you be able to let me know which one that is?
Loop A has been getting upgraded to all having electricity. Water front sites are A6, A7, A9,A11,A13, A15 we also like E loop E7, E6, E5 In the G pavilion G loop is more for your big rigs. Water view is G8, G7, G6
E loop has only water available and restrooms. No electricity. The e loop sites I mentioned are also waterfront sites. Enjoy! Thank you for watching our videos!
I think the site on this trip was A 13 it had electricity. Everything is really close to the water. It gets hot in the summer so we avoid it then . We like spring , late fall and winter.
Be careful around the Morro Bay campground and from Pismo Beach to Hearst Castle ...a few of the Calif State Park Rangers are overly aggressive , The campground is open 24 hours I was stopped by Ranger " B . E " as I drove into the campground in the early morning. He took 15 mins to run my drivers license and registration then he wrote me a $100 dollar ticket for " Non payment of camping fees " I explained to him he watched me drive into the park 15 mins ago and the normal procedure is find a empty space then write the space number on the after hours envelope then deposit that in the " Iron Ranger " or take your spot then wait till morning when the gate booth is open for payment by debit or credit card. And that is the job of the Campground host to tell people that at 7 am. that have not paid. Then he proceeded to ban me from the campground for 24 hours. While I was leaving I stopped at the gate pay booth to read the rules he pulled up on me again as I stood there and told me to get away from there I was banned from the park for 24 hours. My court date is written 4 months away from now for Grover Beach Court off Grand Ave. This seems way out of line to me I had done nothing wrong and was doing as any person wanting to go camp would do. So I would say to you be very careful but then again I had done nothing wrong...For those from out of town I don't think you would come back from your home town to pay for his overly aggressive ticket writing. I write this here to hopefully keep him from becoming more aggressive and maybe hurting someone or bringing a huge lawsuit against the City of Morro Bay . Calif State Park Ranger " K " is not far removed in her aggressive ticket writing ......anyone else have this problem ?
We’ve never had any issues with the park rangers. They always have been very helpful. Theirs always a first for whatever reason. Thank you for watching and happy Rving.
@@roadtrekingwithroandlo4823 There are 2 of them one male one female that have been talked to by their " Boss " many times telling them to lay off...But they seem to enjoy writing tickets mine was a crazy ticket I was not even camping yet...did not even have a spot picked out...Non payment of camping fee.....Ticket $95 bucks a court date 4 months off....and if you are back home or down the road somewhere and can't or don't want to drive all the way back to here it will cost me $233 bucks....those 2 Rangers need to be put on desk office jobs....no ticket writing allowed before someone sues the Calif Park system for some big bucks for harassment... The Complaint phone is jammed with calls about them...
Thanks for sharing! 😀
Your welcome! Calaveras Big trees is in a fantastic area and a great place to camp. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you for watching and Happy Rving!
Good old dixiana
The whole experience is so much fun! Thank you for watching!
Don't forget to tell people the town is full of meth and fentanyl boron California crystal meth heads everywhere crime off the hook 80% the people out there is on crystal meth
What dates were you here? We may have been your neighbor? Some of the sunset shots and the kite surfer is exactly what we saw.
It was the mid or end of March I believe. Small world! What site were you in? Thank you for watching our videos. We’ve been going to a lot of repeat places so I really haven’t posted a lot of new places in a bit. Once this bipolar weather stops hopefully we’ll have some new experiences to share. Happy RVing!
It looked a lot different 40 years ago!
What I find so interesting is that The Ghirardelli Chocolate Company started there. I don’t think much has changed in the town itself. It still has its old buildings and cemetery. It’s a neat little town.
Thank you for this video...... We are looking at spending the winter there😊
It’s a nice little rv park and the people are really nice. There was an older gentleman that was there a couple years ago and he past away. Otherwise a nice place to get away from the cold. Thank you for watching our videos. Happy Rving.
Wonderful video. We passed Henry Cowell State Park RV and didn’t get to check out came home and found your video. Appreciate your time making it. 😊
We love RVing there time and time again. Great location and a great place to spend time. Thank you for watching and please subscribe.
To other viewers: Highly recommend going to check this place out before you book, as we found while huge, many of the sites would be difficult/very uneven for rvs. Check out Don Pedro Fleming Meadows. I think you would enjoy it.
Don Perdro Fleming Meadows is also a fantastic place to rv. Great fishing there also. Just like any campground it’s very important to see the description of the site your booking to make sure it can accommodate the size of your RV. I do know that loop L is very desirable for your larger rigs. They offer electric, water and sewer.
Thank you for posting this 💚 I was born and raised in Scotts Valley, miss it terribly. We live in Phoenix now but it's nice to see the places I loved so much. Looks like you have a wonderful time traveling together 😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed our video I hope it gave you good memories of the place you love. I love Scott’s Valley and the Santa Cruz mountains. Yes we have a great time getting out in the RV. Again thank you for watching.
Coming to visit the big tree park Feb. 2024
You’ll love it up there. February you won’t have to deal with the yellow jackets meat bees. They can be a pain. Check weather you might have a little snow. I love their visitor center. You can’t go wrong with big trees state park. Enjoy!
@roadtrekingwithroandlo4823 thanks. Got a Subaru Outback Wilderness for the snow. Was at Bass Lake this pass Dec. 2023. Lots of rain but no snow.
By the layout of the room, the views, and the patio below I would swear that is the room my family stayed in when we were there in 2002.
Oh isn’t that funny. 😄 I hope the video brought you back fond memories. Thank you for watching and have a happy thanksgiving. 🍁🦃
@@roadtrekingwithroandlo4823 It was a wonderful trip and the Biltmore is great. I hope to return again. It's an ever changing place where you never have done all there is or learned all there is to know.
I thought the pier closed down
Yes the pier has been closed down and torn down. It was falling apart. The Lawsens can’t get a permit to replace it. We’ve crabbed on that pier for ages and it’s definitely missed. The video you watched was a few years old. I usually date the videos. Thank you for watching.
This is not pleasure point.
I’m sorry it’s Steamer Lane. Thank you for catching it. I’ll fix it. 👍
I didn't know the film "The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming" was filmed there! Saw that movie as a kid. Thanks for another inforamtive travelogue.
I’m glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching our videos. Please do subscribe!
Hi, me & my wife watching your video the day before we went last weekend (site#25). My nephew found a small rock that has your painting on it! So cool
Oh wow! How awesome my husband Ron paints those. Was that the banana slug? We always leave a painted rock before we leave our campsite. Enjoy! Thank you for watching and letting us know that you found one of our rocks. Happy camping! ❤️
very few who play in those bars go on to be stars
Not everyone can be a star, but there’s some really talented musicians and singers out there in Nashville. The ones playing in the bars are better than most and have a shot at making their dreams come true. Thank you for watching our videos I hope you enjoyed them.
Yo estuve allí
Muy Bueno!

When my Napa Valley College Earth Science class took a school bus for a rare field trip to Pt. Reyes, our geology teacher had us straddle the San Andreas fault, on the 'earthquake' trail, and stomp our feet. That was in '81, and I think, I really really think, it caused the '89 Loma Prieta earthquake. So I have survivor's guild and wisely fled Napa nineteen years before it's 2014 earthquake, which caused more damage there than the Loma Prieta quake and the previous 2000 Napa quake, and the 1906 earthquake. I live in Phoenix, but on October 16th '99, around 2:45 AM, less than 24 hours after our daughter was born, we felt 7.1 Hector Mine earthquake on the third floor of Thunderbird hospital, where my wife still was, after our daughter was born. I was allowed to sleep in her suite because of her long labor, so I could help my wife, and was there when the earthquake hit. I first thought a helicopter had crashed into the hospital, our beds were rolling on the floor, and my wife was about to rush my daughter out of the room and I had to sternly tell her 'We've just felt an earthquake--stay put'. I went to the nurse's station because I heard screams and cries from the other hospital rooms, and I told the stunned nurses it was just an earthquake, probably in California, and they were already mad because none of the doctors came to check on the maternity ward's welfare. As I returned to my room, mission accomplished after calming the nurses, they in turn calmed the patients who were obviously 'rattled'.. When my daughter was old enough, we told her she came into the world with a 'bang'. Just five years earlier, when my wife, then my fiance, flew to see me in Mexico, in Huatulco, since we dated 2000 miles apart, on her departure Huatulco also had a small earthquake. So to this day, I wonder if our earth's creator was trying to tell me something, because of the day me and my college friends jumped on the San Andreas Earthquake trail.
Loved riding that restored Shay geared loco pulling open excursion cars. What fun when the steam gets in your face ( not very often). Nothing like hearing that whistle blow as you’re rolling on steep grades through the tall trees.
The trains at roaring camp are so beautifully restored. We take a ride everytime we go to Henry Cowell Redwoods. We like to sit in the back left side so we can see the steam from the engine on the curves that veer to the left. Thank you for watching our video and please do subscribe. Again thank you.
Awesome video! We’re going camping there in two weeks. Your information was so helpful 😊
I love the little beach at Van damn and the campground. Bring your own firewood so you know it’s dry. The camp host has firewood but it’s in the upper campground which was a trek to drive up and get and then when we did get it the wood was green. We like to pick up the hard wood from the grocery store whenever we can find it. There’s also a small market on the Hwy that has good dry wood for sale. Enjoy! One of my favorite spots. Thank you for watching our videos!! Happy Rving!
Were you able to travers the steps and get to and from the lighthouse? Did you get into Point Reyes Station?
Yes we went to the two visitors centers and point Reyes lighthouse. Check days that it’s open. If I remember it’s open Thursday to Monday from 10-4. To the lighthouse it’s 313 step down and 313 steps back up. There’s 3 benches along the way so you can take it really slow at your own pace. You can see the lighthouse really well from the visitor center if you decide the trek isn’t for you. Thank you for watching.
Nice video. There are no coin operated showers at this park.
My error I’m so sorry. I don’t know what made me think there was showers there is beyond me.
My boyfriend and I stayed there for 4 days a few years ago. We loved it and definitely will return.
It’s a fun place. Thank you for watching! Our favorite place is Morro bay if you haven’t been please go. You’ll be hooked. 😀
Most wonderful place!
It really is!
Very sad in light of the tragedy
Our hearts are so heavy in light of the tragedy that Maui has experienced. The loss is devastating. Our prayers are with Maui. Thank you for watching our memories of Lahaina. ❤️
God Bless all in Lahaina, my heart is broken. My prayers are for you, may your lives be mended and soothed in these terrible times. God bless all who have lost their lives. They are in Gods hands now. God Bless Maui🙏🏻
I am sorry to hear. It’s a shame that you only go once and the dress code was part of its charm. Why can’t we dress any more. So sad.
Thank you. I’m very concerned about our country. Pray if you will.
You can dress! We were there for lunch which is a bit more casual. For dinner I’d continue dressing to the nines. Food is still fantastic!
I had dinner with friends in 1994. A beautiful place. Great food. 😋
Still a beautiful place with Great food. Thank you for watching.
It's already started the animals can't find water time is way hotter
I wish they would put a water trough out for the elk. Their huge when they get right up in you. Thank you for watching.
Is she asking for the Ranger to make that elk wait his turn in line?
Lol! They take cuts. Thank you for watching.
Be prepared to arrive early as the parking spots fill up and there are long lines to catch the bus. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oX5tsKeIaZnMYso.html
True you need to be there by 8:00 or 9:00 after that forget it. Once parked it’s wonderful you can really enjoy the park by foot or bike is your best bet. The shuttles get really full. I suggest weekdays still really full but I’m sure much better than weekends or holidays. Thank you for watching.
Thank you!😊
You're welcome 😊 thank you for watching.
Hi did you need reservations to get in to the park?
No we didn’t need reservations luckily. As the season progresses check before you go. Try to be there by 8:30 or 9 am to get good parking. Stay parked the whole time your there and use the shuttles otherwise if you move your car you might not find another parking spot. Once parked it was stress free and we had a fantastic time enjoying the beautiful waterfalls and scenery. Deegans deli offers beverages, beer , wine , soup’s , sandwiches coffee shop. Good prices or you can pack yourself a picnic lunch. We enjoyed both. Yosemite is a must see right now with the many waterfalls. So much water even on the valley floor. Worth the trip. Enjoy! Thank you for watching
Beautiful pictures and GREAT information. Thank you!!
