6:55 – 7:21 Kelli says GATOR? Priceless
Just ordered myself some lavender. Never thought of putting it in coffee but I love lavender tea! Beautiful area to kayak in and love the shops in Jefferson and Kelli’s Dad’s store. If you guys ever make it to Kentucky or Ohio to camp please hit me up! Would love to share some spots you need to check out. I also realized I have been following for about a year. Starting watching you guys last year before my neice joined us for her first camping trip….I had the camp itch so bad and do again at the moment. Would love to live the life you guys do!!!
What brand is your tent, like your videos
Love the video. I live not far from Caddo and Jefferson. Where are ya’ll from?
Hi Cody! I think the grocery store plant you’re referring to is an orchid? And, yes, they too are epiphytes. Epiphytes derive nutrients from the air and rain (via photosynthesis), but not the plant upon which they are growing. Love seeing all the wonderful places you guys are visiting!
That place looks epic!
Caddo!!!! 45 min from me!
Love the General Store
Amazing adventure.
Cody just needs a Stetson and some cowboy boots (~);}!!!
Grew up on Caddo, Texas side born n raised. Now I live in Key West.
Love your dad’s booth! Where is that again?
Great camera work and music guys..
What a neat old town, Jefferson Texas is. Great seeing family as well.
Love lavender; use lavender bombs in my bath & have lavender sented candles. It’s a first for me to hear it in tea.
Never share your security measures. Glad you guys are back on the road. Is your trailer insured as an RV? Did the policy cover everything including belonging?
Ok ok ok. First off… DON’T SWIM WITH THE GATORS. They may not be saltwater crocodiles, but gators are not safe to swim with in the wild. You want to be up close, go to a gator farm. Gators WILL attack if provoked or you get to close.
Wow! What an awesome intro!
I love the fun facts of history on places y’all go. Thanks for sharing. 🤗
I’m new to your channel, enjoying binge watching. The scenery on this video is absolutely incredible. Me and my husband camped for 50 years, so many great memories. We aren’t able to anymore but that’s okay, just thankful for the years we had. Take care and keep on having fun.
Alligator water
Thanks for the idea about lavender petals! I’ve been on a vanilla lavender coffee kick and I’ll have to look for these! I just love y’all. Have y’all ever had a fan camp out? Would love to camp with y’all!!!!!
We enjoy your blogs and love seeing our beloved state of Texas ! Just a work of caution, stay abreast of the weather tonight, storms-a-brewing! Ken and Brenda T.
This vlog kinda sorta brings back memories of the movie :Deliverence all that was needed was the bango playing kiddo and perhaps those two or three men with shotguns hanging over thier shoulders looking out at ya from the trees☺
Lavender is great in biscotti.
I’ve lived in Texas all my life. I’ve been to Caddo several times, but I had no idea of the history! Really interesting. I need to get back there.
awesome vid guys thank you!
That’s crazy how slaves dug that lake is it it’s still sad
"Our wedding day wasn’t the best day of your life??" sounds like something I’d say 😂🤣
Honestly, its nice to see the places ya’ll explore, but I appreciate even more the history lessons you share with us in your videos. Thank you for that!! 😊
We live not to far away from Jefferson. Love it there! If you have a chance, eat at mcgarity’s!
You guys should visit duck dynasty family. Your so close to them.
I believe Spanish moss is a bryophyte (not sure about the spelling)
I love watching you two. I’m a country girl. Some times my heart get so full with that down home feeling and enjoyment in nature I just start to cry. Thanks for bringing it home. Now if that’s not enough. Girl you can cook and I love to cook!
😋❤
You make interesting and fun to watch videos. I like your cooking too. We lived in north Central Texas years ago, now in No. Idaho, so different where you are.
I really enjoyed this video. I’m planning on going to Caddo lake soon and stumbled upon this in my planning on where to put in my kayak. You did a good job of capturing Jefferson and I hope to get time to check it out also. The little history lessons were interesting. Are Ya’ll from Little Rock? You mentioned on of my favorite rivers the Little Maumelle.
(beginning) Everything bagel myself mmm.
nice look
Had a tough day and this video was just what I needed. The swamp beckons! Another great location and history lessons… thanks for taking us along. The food, the drone shots, the editing…you guys keep knocking out amazing content!

Thanks 🙏
Kellie, maybe you should have a good fish recipe just in case Cody accidentally catches one or a real fisherman gives you one. just joking
All varieties of lavender are edible. Some are more on the bitter side however…
I live 5 miles from Caddo state park in Louisiana .
You guys are in my place stomping territory. I am from Longview, Tex. Love to watch your channel. Sorry I missed the cook book though. The name is Carolyne.
Man, I wish I had known. Would love to have met up with y’all.
“Fun Facts about the USA, by Cody”, sounds like a fantastic name for a new channel, Cody! That “Fun Facts” was excellent!!
Another great video, thanks for sharing your experiences!
Loved this video. Lived on the North side of Caddo a few years back. Love the peace and wildness of Caddo. Happy Trails.
We love Jefferson. We had family there at one time. We still visit. Hope to bump into you guys someday to say hi!
