you think you're funny but you're not
Who's there!
We've had multiple people that have gotten stuck.
Now trying to get out of here today and this is where the RV Community shines.
So if you've ever asked yourself should you or should you not attend an RV rally well
let's just say so far this rally is off the charts fun and whether you are a peopleer
or not there is something in it for everybody so if you watch this video You're Gonna probably
be ready to sign up for that next RV rally when we tell you more about just what you
might expect we drove over a thousand miles in just two days to attend the RV unplugged
rally
this is a boondocking event where we're parked in a field with over 50 other RVs to kick
off would assure to be the best new show about RVers made for our viewers will we survive
no hookups for the next four days
we are about to put our new solar setup to the test plus when a torrential downpour occurs
the night before departure well let's just say things are about to get very very interesting
and this video is one where you're going to want to stick around until the very end but
first up bull riding [Music] [Applause] hold on just hang on you got this
[Music]
so dizzy right now [Applause]
[Music]
I decided to give it a try but after watching everyone else come off quickly I decided to
try this challenge a little differently
[Music]
good job [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
[Applause]
[Music] [Applause] [Music]
I'm going to replace everything I can on the right side
[Applause] [Music]
who do you think wrote it best let us know in the comments below so that was an experience
in and of itself and a lot of fun but the best part of all with this type of RV rally
is just the community so we have made lifelong friends why we've been here we've also been
camping with friends that we've gotten to know more so a couple of things you can expect
if you do come to an RV rally so expect to have a blast expect to have a lot of fun but
also expect to get more connected in the RV Community people ask us all of the time how
do you make friends on the road how do you
stay connected on the road in a rally is absolutely
a great way to do that but don't take my word for it let's ask some of the people that were
here what they thought all right so I am here with one of our Insiders Bill and he has been
here with us this weekend at the rally so what did you think of the rally it's exciting
uh I guess you're going in you don't know how many people are going to be here uh but
to have I think it was 60 or 70 rigs here it's crazy that amount of people and connections
that you build in just a few days yeah that's awesome so is this your first time coming
to a rally it was 900 miles away first rally uh I'd recommend it maybe a little shorter
next time but so you definitely would do another rally absolutely awesome all right so we are
here with our friends Chris and Katrina from our everyday getaway was this your first rally
it was my first rally where I actually participated
it wasn't my first rally as far as a guest
we did a rally three years ago we had a blast but this rally was much different in that
we were a part of it we were Central to a lot of things that were going on so and it
was great we had a blast it was fantastic so would you tell other rvers that a rally
is something that they probably want to consider at some point during their whole time of being
on the road yes absolutely really go to as many rallies as you possibly can you'll have
a great time you'll meet great people you know breaking bread and having a few cocktails
that's always a good thing but yes I would definitely do as many as you can it's a great
way to meet people and to learn a lot of things all right so this is our friend Ryan and he
and his lovely wife Lauren are Millers in motion and they have been here with us for
the RV unplugged rally so was this your first RV rally it wasn't okay we've done a handful
of other rallies with a few other channels and then obviously the Tampa RV Super Show
we've done the rally side as well as the other the fun side right right of all of that and
so this was uh probably our fifth or sixth now okay and then what do you think about
RV rallies in general yes or no absolutely yes I mean the sense of community I mean we
all know the RV Community is awesome to begin with right but you take that and then you
take a bunch of us and you cram us into a little space and it's amazing what happens
just the friendships that are formed it almost feels like a little mini family for that weekend
and it's crazy to see people rally around to help other people with generators that
might have gone down if you're stuck in the mud you name it and just everybody grabs a
truck and a chain or or oil or whatever you need and next thing you know it's fixed in
like five seconds by like 47 people awesome so RV unplugged too rally I'm already thinking
number four but so I guess that implies number two is already there so so you want to hit
that subscribe button because we're gonna have a lot more information as things progress
towards the next rally these are very dear friends Mike and Susan from RV blogger and
they have been here at the RV unplugged rally with us this weekend is this like your first
RV rally that you guys have been to or have you been to others well this is the first
one that we've been to one where we were part of the reason the rally existed so would you
recommend for others in the RV Community to attend a rally at some point in your whole
RV experience or no absolutely yeah take the time and do it it's a great way to meet people
that are all like-minded we all have the same hobby or lifestyle whatever it is and we learn
things from each other we help each other we have fun together and we're looking forward
to the next RV unplugged rally for sure it's gonna be a blast so today is essentially the
last day of the rally ever everybody is pulling out we kind of just had like a coffee and
donuts time last morning but this is where you really see RV Community because it has
been raining almost every single day since we arrived here in Texas and because of that
the fields where we've been parked have been somewhat so soft during different times of
the day well wouldn't you know that on the last day we're getting ready to pull out that
we would have a torrential downpour that happened last night that just obviously resulted in
the ground being very very soft so we've had multiple people that have gotten stuck now
trying to get out of here today and this is where the RV Community shines because not
only do you have everybody jumping in to help but you have people that have so much knowledge
so we've got a guy here that is retired fire department so he's got a lot of knowledge
and not only is he retired fire department but then in talking to him I find out he actually
was an instructor for the company warn that make the toe winches so he's got super good
knowledge about what is this capable of doing is you know what we're doing save all of that
and so you know he knows okay this is how we need to rig this thing up to be able to
get this RV unstuck and so not only is everybody coming together but it's like there is this
wealth of knowledge that you find in in the RV community of people that have experience
and people that have knowledge and then when everybody bands together we could really make
some great things happen so if you are on the fence about jumping into this lifestyle
about joining up with the RV Community this is your sign do it now because it's an amazing
Community thank you high five no I'm just kidding I'm just kidding yes yes [Music]
I'm sad to be leaving so many good friends and smells close
[Music]
so it's been just a very long crazy day um it's about 8 30 ish I want to say at night
Central Time which time zones are a really interesting thing when you're rving and you're
thinking about going from one destination to the next to and you have to account for
a time zone change so essentially we're going
to lose an hour getting to our ultimate destination
in Central Florida but we decided to stop and get Raising Canes because oh
there's a strange boy he did his job yeah he did good boy you got food good boy yep
she saw her face he's like there's a face that's fine look at me in the door I will
have to say you were very stealthy so I've been practicing and
sneaking up on charity and I think I've perfected it pretty well yeah I didn't even know you
were there until he told me you were there we're gonna do this and then we still got
five more hours
gonna go as far as we can and then finish up tomorrow because you know that's how we
roll
so we found this little gem of a boom docking spot last night which probably isn't technically
boondocking spot but it is when you make it one so this is actually like nice and quiet
dark we actually got some good rest when we went to bed our batteries were at 86 percent
because we didn't like even find that spot until like one in the morning last night so
there hadn't been any solar going on there had been some of the alternator charging but
we woke up this morning and the batteries are at 70.
and we did run the AC in the back bedroom was off and on cycled pretty happy with that
time to get on the road are you ready oh I like this ready go for a ride yes what are
you doing sitting in Charities I don't know if she's gonna be okay with that hmm oh yes
oh yes yes yes yes oh that's the spot right there right there [Music] right over here
did you bring the pineapple and the oranges um [Music] all right let's get this show on
the road you think you're funny but you're not good
[Music]
assistant
hold on
so something people don't always think about but we love using is a service like RV to
be able to secure hard to get reservations now RV is an online travel booking agency
where you can search compare and actually book over 3 500 campsites without paying any
sort of booking fee and the feature we probably love the most about RV is their sold out search
feature if a campground is sold out for the dates you're wanting to book set up a sold
out search in RV and RV will actually automatically
book that Campground for you when a cancellation
happens and they happen more often than you think we've personally used this sold out
search feature several times with amazing success to secure last minute reservations
or reservations for popular destinations we've partnered with RV for a 10 discount for our
viewers now this is an exclusive grateful
glamper discount so be sure to visit gratefulglamper.com
