super exciting because this is going to be our first real like pedal to the metal put
it to the test of solar and what is it like with the like it's going down the road how
much like power are we generating while we're traveling wow we're at the RV unplugged rally
all of it so exciting time the kids are not with us this particular time so I have mixed
emotions about that it's gonna be like what does it feel like to be an empty nester for
a week no I don't know we'll see it's feeling it's going to be different very different
[Music]
we have blocks underneath where the Jacks were at all um I put them away except for
these two so I'm just gonna leave those there just so when we come back we can back right
in and pull back up on the Block to think that we're going to come into the exact same
spot anyway oh yeah you're a better driver than I so you can do it more powerful yeah
so let's see how well you can pull out of here throw these in the fridge and then yell
real loud if I'm gonna hit
the true test see if she can do it without hitting that
all right meet me at the end of the road all right hook up the Jeep did I hit anything
nope I hate to read on this side
yeah but we don't want to get fuel here I know I just want to stop and get the automatic
windshield washer right here
all right ready
then take the third right
continue on I-75
[Music] Turn left at the traffic light are you ready ready
[Music]
that was the most interesting Cracker Barrel say that I've ever had I'm ready for coffee
that's for sure but yeah like so this has never happened in all of our years of lot
docking during trips but Cracker Barrel's usually one of our favorites this big parking
lot let's go grab some coffee and breakfast in the morning it's usually like a good place
to overnight but last night holy Moses so we pulled in and there was what I thought
was like a camper van it looks like a camper van so I'm like perfect you know we've got
some other people that are here doing the same thing that's great it was not a camper
van we're parked we're set up we're literally trying to go to bed and we're like what is
that noise and I thought it sounded like a helicopter this camper van was actually like
some sort of cleaning crew and they proceeded to pressure wash the entire parking lot [Music]
pressure wash is a parking lot and the equipment was so stinking loud and this lasts until
midnight so I need coffee this morning for sure because wow that was a loud night usually
we run fans if you know Highway noise like that's good but when they're stinking pressure
washing the parking lot right in the parking lot Lord have mercy
all right you stay here and guard the RV okay we're gonna go into Cracker Barrel do they
have bacon you bark or bite anybody who tries to break in okay okay good job you smell the
food you smell Cracker Barrel I smell bacon
because the keys you don't need to repeat them right now no it's the right keys
the fastest gate anyways enough totally right there
oh geez not your Flamingo stuff oh boy
[Music]
all right shall we uh get this show on the road yes so I got the one slide pulled
in which we only opened just the one slide last night so the kids marched along we didn't
really have to pull out that other slide so anyway slides in levelers are up you might
want to just do a visual on that um but you need to put the key in the Jeep okay so get
that done you should be ready to rock and roll
all right ready to go yes let's go let's go where's the bacon

[Music]
so instead of the peace sign the P sign [Music]
the buzz in 1810 presidents of Louisiana's
Florida parishes Rose in an arms Insurrection and overthrew the Spanish government what's
more American than overthrowing other governments [Music]
the Indiana coffee none let me see
let's move pretty cool
[Music]
all right so we found a rest stop that has a dump station so we're gonna go ahead and
dump so I want to make sure we have a fully empty black tank gray tank before we get to
RV unplugged we're gonna be unplugged for how many days five four four days so we don't
want anything entertained oh
[Music]
hey guys while most people follow the 333 Rule and don't drive more than three hours
a day or 300 miles a day we tend to kind of overextend that quite a bit [Music]
two days to go a thousand miles to arrive for the RV unplugged rally in Athens Texas
foreign
[Music]
we were ushered into our site with the rest of our casts and crew members the sites here
are definitely a little tight so it's a good thing that we are all very close friends
stop stop
one of the things I am passionate about is upcycling when and where possible which is
why I was so excited when I learned about on the road again bags these bags are made
right here in the USA by a female-owned small business owner in Massachusetts the materials
used to make the bags and placemats are all materials that would have been thrown into
the landfill by boat and trucking manufacturer but on the road again bags repurposes these
materials into some great bags I have the Liberty tote and I love it for the beach getting
groceries and even for RV organizations and
here's something pretty amazing too this particular
red white and blue fabric was originally made for the trucking industry to cover the beds
of dump trucks used in cleaning the debris from Ground Zero during the attacks of 9 11.
these bags are the perfect gift for anyone but especially for the traveler check out
all of the totes travel pouches placemats and more at gratefulglamper.com forward slash
