Our goal is to inspire others to start VAN life or RV life or SKOOLIE life…whatever you choose- let it be something that helps you chase your dreams and get you out in the beautiful world to explore what it has to offer. Thanks so much for coming along on our journey! Say hi in the comments! We love meeting you all!

  • I have been wanting to do those caves but been afraid. Thank you for doing them for me. 😂 That's my favorite coffee place!!!!!!!

  • Now…THIS is why you bought the van…FUN!! Glad you got to enjoy yourselves!

  • Wonderful adventure. Hilary, girl you better keep those hands on the wheel when you are driving. 😂

  • Interesting fact about lava… In movies you always see people that fall into lava, sink and burn . But lava is actually EXTREMELY dense, because it's liquefied rock. So you actually wouldn't sink like if you were in water.

  • It’s a no for me on the lava cave as after years and years a rock could move. Just happened to a woman here in WA and she was stuck with a boulder on her leg. No thanks!

  • 🙂 WOW! Fun and COOLER for sure! I HAD TO LOL at your dishwashing stance and Cave adventure!! I was 5'6, but shrinking with age 🙂 So no problem for me …. THANKS MUCH for sharing and ALL the BEST from the Left Coast! Cheers!! 🙂

  • Nice! We were just at this campground a few weeks ago when we were camping out up there for 4th of July weekend, fun campground. The Lava tubes look like a great time!

  • Wow, this is one of my favorite videos! Excellent production, lots of great content and we could feel the fear of the cave exploration! Love this style and great job guys!

  • Newbie Roadtrek Zion SRT owner. Found you channel while searching for van life videos. Yours is the best!! I enjoy them so much, I've gone back to the beginning. I love that you guys show the good, the bad, and the ugly and have such a good attitude about it all! Your videos always bring a smile! 🙏😊

  • I’ve only been following your channel for about a year and have become one of my favorite. Now I wish you would post more videos. But I will take what we get and love it. At least I can always go back and watch what I haven’t seen. Thank you for sharing your life. Our prayers are with you and your family for healing for your Dad.

  • You four should have watched the 2005 horror movie The Descent the night before going to this cave. Girl power meets underground ravenous Gollum creature. lol Would have made the trip waaay more exciting for yall.😜

  • Yes, we have done the AZ Lava tubes. They were spooky for me due to super claustrophobia . The rest of my family and our extended family loved it and spent a long time down there. Me…I only ventured in about 100 feet. My sons also toured the lava tubes on Boy Scout outings. You did great, Hilary.

  • Thanks for bringing us along again! Cool cave experience, cool friends and cooler temps! With all you have going on, I'll bet a trifecta of cool was good medicine. ❤👍🏼 Thanks for the update on your pop, been wondering, still keeping you all in my thoughts and 🙏.

  • Hello Bob and Hillary and friends 🤗
    Yes.. its nice to see your friends again…Hope your Dad continues.. to do well !!!🙏❤
    You guys ..
    are having a blast ..
    how fun👍
    That cave was pretty scary Hillary ..you did so well !!!
    👏👏👏 God bless everyone..good night 😁❤️

  • Where in the world, and how did you store the gas firepit? P.S. we had are 1 st fix on 2023 20L. We were expecting something, just replaced the whole kitchen drain pipe system. Cracks in the PVC pipe

  • I'm 6'3" and when I wash the dishes, I often find myself bending over and I am sure I look like an upside down letter J to get my head under the overhead microwave that is over the sink. When I realize what I am doing, I go this is crazy, and then I force myself to stand up straight and it is ok after that. Wierd, but true.

  • Love the video! I'm not necessarily a big fan of caves but the video was fun to watch. You guys are one of my favorites and I always look forward to Wednesday evenings for another exciting adventure of Bob & Hillary!

  • I’m 6’-6” tall. I think I’d have to open the overhead cabinets and put a clear panel in the bottom if I were to wash the dishes in Mr. Lemon.

  • I’m having such a good time with your video I don’t want it to end

  • Now that looks like a great relax time, nice cool weather and sleeping w/rain is almost as good as next to crashing waves.. Ok and as much as ya’ll specially bob loves coffee I can not believe ya’ll do not grind gourmet beans and use a chemex and/or French press.. 😂
    LoL hard pass on the light sharing, thats not too wifely j/k… 😝

  • haha, you know in Mexico eggs don't expire or need refrigeration. Kind of freaked me out too. I was gonna throw some out and a local said they would take them. 🐣

  • Bob you are so lucky with your wife’s bubbly enthusiasm for life and just being happy.
