- [Robert] Today, we're visiting what is arguably the most charming city in the Southern United States. Its antebellum architecture. Its churches. Its cuisine. Today, we're going back to Savannah, Georgia, and explore some of our old favorite spots and some new discoveries such as Tybee Island and the planned riverside district. (upbeat music) ♪ I'm riding ♪ ♪ Riding in my RV ♪ ♪ Wherever I want to be ♪ ♪ Because I'm free ♪ ♪ In my RV ♪ Goodbye, Florida, see you in a couple of months. (upbeat music) Oh no, what's going on? I think someone's having a bad day. Hopefully everyone's okay. Well, we've made it to McAllister State Park here. Beautiful place. This is beautiful. Starlink is not gonna work here, that's for sure, but other than that, this is a beautiful state park and also I didn't film the entrance here because we got so much traffic on the way here and it was only supposed to be two and a half hours so I only put a four hour card on the GoPro and it took like five hours to get here. Now, we can explore a little bit with the time we have left today. The one negative about Fort McAllister State Park here, it is almost an hour drive to Savannah proper and it is gonna get old, but it was the only thing we could find. It was kind of last minute too but on a weekday? Hmm. This body of water here on the right is the Ogeechee River and there's a restaurant called Fish Tails that we're gonna check it out before we go. Today, we're not gonna go into the historic district. Instead, we're going to pick up our friend, Steven, who moved to Savannah recently and he is going to take us to his favorite restaurant on Tybee Island. (upbeat music continues) I almost get a Florida vibe as we drive into Tybee Island. The site of historic Cockspur Island lighthouse is a clear sign we're almost there. We're going to eat at this restaurant called Bubba Gumbos and you really have to know it is there. It is nestled back here at the Tybee Island marina which will guarantee the freshness of the seafood, but it is kind of hard to find. We're having hush puppies, a gumbo that is mostly rice and okra, but the highlight is the swordfish and of course, hanging out with Steve once again. We heard some commotion and check it out, wildlife! There are some sea otters hanging out by the kayaks. Everybody stopped whatever they were doing and came to see the funny creatures playing around. (slow music) They are fascinating, aren't they? Let's continue exploring the rest of Tybee Island. We wanted to pass by the Crab Shack, probably the most famous and touristic place on the island and we may come back before we go. Right now, I just want to see what it looks like. They seem to have RV parking, so maybe we'll stop by on our way out but I don't know, it doesn't really seem to be big rig friendly but hey, maybe if we come when it is not so busy? We'll see. Now, let's go towards the end of the island. This here is the camp ground that I wanted to stay at, it is called Rivers End but they had no vacancy. There it is, the Tybee Island lighthouse. Let's see if we can stop for the photo opportunity. Hmm, yup, this is perfect. (slow music continues) Let's park here real quick. I just want to get a glimpse of the Atlantic ocean. There's a huge cargo ship waiting to get into the Savannah River. We're almost out of time here, it is going to get dark soon and to be honest, we're tired, but Tybee Island here definitely deserves a revisit one of these days. Tomorrow, we're going to Savannah. (slow music continues) Really? You know that's the water we're about to drink, right? I'll make sure to sanitize that spigot before we use it or at least let the water flow for a few seconds. Well, good morning! It is Cinco de Mayo! (laughs) We're just headed to go into Savannah early, relatively early, it's what? 8:49. It's actually almost an hour drive from here at this time of the day. Rush hour, what can you do? And we decided that we're gonna explore Fort McAllister tomorrow morning, check out is not until noon so we should have time. I'm going to see if I can find a carwash on the way because the Colorado is filthy. Lots of squirrels here in this park and they like to suck on the water faucet. So we should clean that up before filling up tomorrow morning. Enjoy the ride! (upbeat music) It's a pretty long way just to get out of the campground to where the fort is located. As I mentioned, we're going to do the fort tomorrow before we leave. And now, we're going to try to do as much as we can. We have a whole day ahead of us in Savannah. It should be about 50 minutes to downtown. We're gonna do a quick carwash because the Colorado is filthy! (upbeat music continues) Here we are arriving at the historic district. This is Bay Street, one of the main East West streets here in downtown Savannah. Some of the better chain hotels are located here. And coming up here on the left, the iconic city hall building. We're gonna have early lunch with Steven at a very iconic place here in the city. It is called The Old Pink House and I've been looking forward to some good Southern cooking. Let's park somewhere and explore a little bit. Level 4E, remember. I think of Forry, 4E, yeah? Well, we're gonna not kill some time but while we wait for our reservation, we're gonna go into River Street here. Savannah's beautiful no matter which part of the city you go to. Let's cross through here, River Street is down there, it's on the lower level. Yeah, definitely not OSHA compliant. I guess people had longer legs back then? Well, here we are in River Street. That's that famous hotel. That's South Carolina by the way, on the other side of the river. This is where the colony of Georgia was founded back in 1733. All these old warehouses are now shops and restaurants. This is also the original port of Savannah location. That's where we stayed last time and that was one of our rooms actually. One of those was our room. I'm talking about one of the first times we came before we had our own RV. On a different trip, we also did a river cruise on this very boat. We've got a huge boat coming up river. At high tide, that's when they come. That's what Steve said. Here's a sculpture depicting an African American family built in 2002. That's the Talmadge Memorial Bridge spanning the Savannah River. And the brand new planned riverside district which we'll visit later. Here comes that large cargo ship as we continue walking along the riverside past the World War II memorial. (slow music) As our friend Steven was telling us, for these large ships to come into the river, they have to wait for high tide. So there's a narrow window of opportunity for them to be able to do it. So they only do it at certain times of the day and this one is not one of the largest ones, but sometimes it is a real treat to see real, real large ships coming into the river here in Savannah. It is pretty big. Savannah is the fourth busiest seaport in the United States after Los Angeles, Long Beach, and New York. Now my question is, will it fit under the bridge? (slow music continues) It's a Swedish ship probably full of Volvos, would you say? And it does look like it is going to make it under the bridge. Let's see the World War II memorial which is officially called A World Apart. And there is a split globe with the names of those who served from Chatham County. And now we're entering the planned riverside district which is mainly this huge JW Marriott complex. It seems very nice, we should definitely visit this afternoon. This is all very nice, we might return but now, we have to have our early lunch. So we're gonna start walking towards The Old Pink House. This whole River Street area is so photogenic. We have another historic stairway and we're back at the main street level. And we're back on Bay Street. Savannah's one of those cities that everywhere you look it's picture worthy. Let's see where this leads. Oh there it is, city hall, right there. (slow music) Everywhere you look, there is history. The old Savannah Cotton Exchange dates back to 1887 at a time when this was the number one cotton seaport on the Atlantic and the second one in the world. The building itself has been home to Solomon's Masonic Lodge since 1976. (slow music continues) Savannah is definitely a culinary mecca, but where we're going is definitely one of the most iconic places. And here we are, The Old Pink House. Let's have lunch. Such great ambiance in here. And we're here with Steve at The Old Pink House and cheers! It does really feel like you are in an old Southern mansion. Fried green tomatoes. Well, I'm definitely gonna get my fried chicken fix. Mm. And Lily got the fish taco because it is cinco de mayo! (Lily laughing) - [Steve] How is it? - Mm. Yup, really good. Let's go down to the tavern. - [Steve] Yeah, this is pretty cool. - [Robert] It almost feels like you're dining in a dungeon. They have a bar. Well, thank you, Steve, for lunch. - Oh, you're welcome. (Robert laughing) It was fun. It's a different feel. Something about pirates and aye aye! - It definitely has that underground speakeasy feel and I would love to have dinner or at least cocktails down here one of these days. Oh, wine cellar! One last look at the main dining room. As I was saying, that's one of the best fried chickens I've ever had, wouldn't you agree? - I do, yeah! - Yeah! So now we're gonna continue exploring Savannah, historic Savannah. (slow music) We decided to go back down to River Street and check out that new planned riverside district which would be considered New Savannah, right? Even though it is nestled in the middle of the old historic district or right next to it, rather. (slow music continues) Oh, Electric Moon skytop lounge. Too bad it doesn't open until 3:00 PM. We must return later this afternoon. So many different places where you can hangout, maybe have an adult beverage, but we just ate so we're not really in the mood for this yet. Not yet anyway, but let me tell you, it is one bar next to the other. And this seems to be a concert venue. (upbeat music) Oh wow, check this place out! Out here we have a bust of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (Lily laughing) You look so tall. Does it have the effect when you're sitting down at the bar? Here we have the paddle boat, the paddle steamer that is neither a paddle or a steamer. Yeah, you would think that the big paddle in the back would be paddling but it is not. Yeah, I think they should spin the paddle if only for the looks, right? It is going almost empty, by the way. Oh, I have a good idea where we want to go and this used to be one of our favorite hangouts in Miami Beach back in the day when we were in our 20's maybe? And it turns out the original was founded here on St. Patrick's Day, 1990. They specialize in frozen daiquiris and today being cinco de mayo, they're doing margarita flights. Well, little known fact, Wet Willies used to be one of our favorite places in Miami Beach back in the mid-90's I want to say, and I just found out this is the original apparently. River Street is so much fun. So many different shops and eateries, but let's go back and continue exploring the rest of Savannah. (slow music) Here's a sculpture dedicated to John Wesley, founder of methodism. The second rise of methodism apparently happened here in 1736. Leopold's Ice Cream here comes very highly recommended but we're not making that line. Not happening. I don't care how good it is. (slow music continues) It is really hot outside today, still, let's walk around the very historic Colonial Park Cemetery. Originally established in 1750, it is said that some of the stone markers were damaged or defaced by Union soldiers during the civil war and the cemetery had already been closed to burials before then so there are no Confederate soldiers buried here. Let's get in the shade here a little bit because it is getting scorching hot out here in Savannah today. (slow music continues) Our next stop, the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist. The biggest church in Savannah. As the story goes in colonial times, Roman Catholics were forbidden from settling the city. That ended, of course, after the American revolution so in 1799, French immigrants fleeing Haiti established the first church here. Construction of the current building began in 1859. It features 81 stained glass windows and with a roof height of 96 feet, it was the first building in Georgia to be constructed of brick. There was a fire in 1898 that left only the walls and the tower. After that, it took 13 years to rebuild it to its current magnificent opulence. (organ music) Very impressive. A friend of ours recommended this corner bar here called Pinkie Masters. Somehow I was expecting something bigger but let's check it out anyway. Doesn't look like it, does it? - [Ily] No, it doesn't look like it. - Actually very friendly neighborhood bar and the bartender is quite a character. (slow music) One of these days we're going to take a proper guided tour of the city but sometimes, like today, just getting lost along all the charming streets and squares, strolling aimlessly, can also be such a rewarding experience. (slow music continues) This is the Armstrong Kessler mansion so Forsyth Park is going to be next. And there it is, the famous fountain at Forsyth Park. It feels like I was just here. I kind of was. If you have been following along, you know I visited Savannah with my mom a couple of weeks ago, although today, we are doing a much more extensive visit. (slow music continues) Here we have a musical instrument. (clanging sounds) This one sounds good. So you're supposed to ... (clanging sounds) I don't know how it works. Here we have the civil war monument honoring the soldiers who died during the war. It was originally known as the Confederate monument but it was renamed and rededicated in 2018. It is one of the largest Confederate monuments in Georgia. Okay, another fun anecdote: Back in, I want to say 2006, 2007? We played here with the band, this place called Mansion. They had a Cuban night or something like that, it was on a Thursday. The place got packed and yeah, we played with the band, the Vista Alegre Club which was the last band that I played with regularly. So yeah, Mansion right here. Yeah, this definitely has to be one of the most iconic views here in Savannah. (slow music) Cool place, it's like a school bus That was it. That was a pretty good espresso. I think it's part of the Savannah College of Arts and Design over there. Now I'm gonna go for a stroll on Jones Street here which is this cobblestone street here. Very famous, lots of old houses. Let's check that out. (slow music) Jones Street here is considered by many the prettiest street in Savannah. It certainly makes for a pleasant afternoon stroll even in this heat. (slow music continues) Well, we're kind of lost here in Savannah, but we're going towards City Market now. This would be Telfair Square. That is the Trinity United Methodist Church. Next to it, the Telfair Academy Art Museum. Excuse me, sir, would you direct me to City Market? Oh, here, this is it? Anyhow, another fun anecdote: (laughs) From that one time that we came to Savannah with the band, it was right here. There was a stage and we played here for all these fine people here on City Market. Lots of places. This city you could stay here for a week or two and not be able to see, especially eat or drink everything you would like to. There's always so much you can eat. We're looking for some treats to take to the family in Acworth and let me tell you, so many delicious treats to choose from. Mm, pralines, very tempting. Here's a monument to the Haitian soldiers who fought in the revolutionary war. Here is the first African Baptist church. And we came full circle. You know what we really want to do is go into that Electric Moon skytop lounge, right? Skytop lounge. Okay, now this is a cool place. (slow music) What a great way to end our day here in Savannah, in the new Savannah. Definitely some of the best views to be had in the hostess city of the South. And the town lives up to its Southern hospitality moniker, everyone has been so nice and they all seem happy which puts the visitor, us, in a good mood. I'm actually glad that not everything in Savannah is entirely historic. New, sometimes, is also good and I love that they have turned this old power plant into this cool space. (slow music continues) How fun, they have a slide. That should be fun. Oh, there's gonna have live music down there. I'm not sure what that is called, I want to say Etch a Sketch but I know that's not it. It's all very modern looking and at the same time, very tastefully decorated. I'm blue. (hums) That's very nice. My new Savannah favorite place. I've been a Miami musician long enough to know that's a salsa band. Let's wait and see if they start playing soon. By the way, did I mention how much I like what they've done here? This is what happens when you come to Savannah Cinco de Mayo they have a salsa band right here. Check that out! (salsa music) I think this will be a fitting end to our video here but we're not finished yet, we're gonna keep on going. The band, by the way, is called LPT from Jacksonville, Florida featuring musicians from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic. This brings so many memories from my salsa playing nights from the early 90's up until not so long ago. It is rare to see a full salsa band playing live nowadays. It must be high tide again. We're getting another cargo ship coming into port, although this one is not as large as the one we saw this morning. We were thinking of getting something to eat at the sky lounge but I think we're going to try that restaurant close to the campground called Fish Tails. One final stop. Let's get some candy before we go. Very cool. This is the other famous candy place here. I love that stuff. Super sweet and very bad for you, but I love it. Let's get back to the upper level. (upbeat music) Oh my gosh, this place is packed! There's a 40 minute wait so we're gonna hang out here by the marina. Maybe watch the sunset. We could have come back to the RV and cooked something but we don't really feel like it. (slow music) I see some clouds on the horizon so this might be it. Hey, clouds are good sometimes as long as they are translucent. And our table is ready! We got mussels. Mm, clam chowder and the fish sandwich. Yeah, we were really hungry. That was a feast! After walking nine miles in Savannah, I think we are allowed to eat anything we want, right? Let's walk across the street here and we're going back to Fort McAllister and rest. That was absolutely fantastic. Happy cinco de mayo, everybody. (slow music continues) Well, good morning! It's a beautiful day here at Fort McAllister State Park and the one thing we've neglected all week, (laughs) we've been here for two days, but sometimes it feels like a week with doing so much, but we've neglected to visit the actual fort so that's what we're gonna do right now. And I forgot my watch, well, it doesn't matter. Oh yes, such a beautiful morning here. Let's check out the fort. They have a room here where they are showing a documentary about Fort McAllister and they also have a small museum which by the way, it is an extra $10 per person to visit the fort and the museum just so you know. This is Genesis Point. Let's begin our self guided tour of Fort McAllister. So many bugs here this morning. All right, let's do this again. Had to buy some bug spray. Let's see if this works. (laughs) I'm going to spray the camera too. Yeah, they were getting attached to my microphone. (laughs) This first part is Genesis Point which is a bluff on the great Ogeechee River. Then we're gonna go to the second point which is the signal tower and hopefully, I have enough bug spray that if not, I'll keep spraying and spraying. It should work, right? The lady in there said that they are gnats. That is the name of the bug, they're attaching already to me so we'll just walk fast, as fast as possible. And my hope is that they're just really bad here next to the river, maybe as we walk further closer to the fort, it'll get better. Right now, they're not attaching as, oh! There's another one. They're not attaching as much as they were earlier so that's a good thing. Let's go up to the signal tower here which apparently, is a reconstruction, a replica of another tower that used to be here. (slow music) There's the river and look at that! They're beautiful. Is that a magnolia? I think it is. Fort McAllister was the Southernmost and most active Confederate fortification in Savannah. The tower does offer a, shall I say, commanding view of this hairpin meander of the Ogeechee River. All right, back down we go. Now, let's go quickly through this part because the gnats. Yeah, they will be just like, yeah, even with the bug spray (laughs), it's crazy! I don't think they bite, they're just annoying little bugs. Oh but they do bite. We found out in a painful way. The NCO huts. There would have been 16 of these originally. Each hut had four bunks with a stovepipe oven and straw beds. Okay, this would have been the quarters for non-commissioned officers. So yeah, this would have been the living conditions here at Fort McAllister. This one actually made the bed. Now, number five here is the barracks which I think is this building right here. Of course, all these are reproductions. For example, the original building would have been made out of wood and it would have housed officers as well as the commander of the fort. Obviously not open. By the way, those gnats, they do bite. And this here would have been the blacksmith shop. According to the self guided tour, there would have been no blacksmith here on site but in the surrounding plantation grounds. The display is just here to show the tools of the trade which so many soldiers relied on. So this would have been the moat, which by the way, was a dry moat, it never held water. Instead, they had a sharpened wooden fence called a palisade. And this was the parade ground, the center of activity. What I thought were bluffs is the actual fort. (laughs) I guess all the structures are camouflaged this way? Very cool, I had never seen a fort like that. Did I say bluffs? I meant to say mountains. So beautiful out here. Keep off mounds. Here we go, number nine is supposed to be ... I missed number eight. I'm not going ahead of myself here. Now then, the hot shotgun is over there. Yeah, number eight was the parade ground. Now, this gun was designed to fire heated cannonballs at wooden battleships to set 'em on fire. That must have been something to see. Number 10, I'm assuming this was a part of number 10. Let's see what this is. This has no number. Hello? Anybody home? Hmm, a tunnel perhaps? Well, number 10 here is the hotshot furnace and here's where they would heat up those cannonballs. It almost looks like a bowling alley. I'm assuming they would heat the cannonballs and they would come in and out through those rails. Okay, it pays to read but that long tunnel, that's where the soldiers would go in and retrieve the hot balls from the furnace. Now, would this be number 11? Yes. Let's check that out real quick up there. Actually, we're supposed to do that later. Let's go in here first. This would have been central bombproof. Used as a hospital and a supply area and officers would also sleep here if an attack was imminent and it is pretty dark. I guess they wanted to replicate the lightning conditions at the time. It does take a bit of time for your eyes to adjust to the darkness in here but I guess that's how it would have been, right? This dark in those days. Let's continue. This is very well done but it's kind of disorienting. You really have to follow that map, and they do tell you you should do it in order, otherwise you get lost. So I think the parapet was that way but now the parapet is over here. Just looking back, there's another cannon over there. Phew, maybe that bug spray is wearing off because whew, they're all over the place! (laughs) The 10 inch columbiad magazine. Can we go in here? Oh no, probably not, right? No, that's not on the list here. The parapet is up here, I think. Well, actually this is it. The parapet is basically a barricade to protect the fort, right? So this levee, this is the parapet. Major John E. Gallie killed in action while commanding the fort. Well, at least up here we get a little bit of a breeze. Maybe the gnats will give us a break. This is the parapet. From the roof. Yeah, apparently from the roof of Cheve's Mill, two and a half miles away, General Sherman watched the reduction of Fort McAllister. Next here is the sharpshooter. (dramatic music) Here we have another cannon and that would be the first Confederate flag. Right, let's continue. Now, we've got number 15. It is this way. Number 15 is the powder magazine. 32 Powder rifle magazine. Let's see what they have in here. It's kind of dark, let me switch cameras. Don't light up a match in here. This here is the sally port which allowed easy access for supply wagons and heavy guns. This was also the first spot where Sherman troops were able to break through. (dramatic music continues) This would be the mortar battery. Phew, hard to believe this all used to be a battlefield and the forest just grew back. Forest wants to go back to being a forest. I'm doing this quickly just because we don't have a whole lot of time, and second, have I mentioned how annoying those gnats are? There's one right on the camera right now, my screen there. Hello, go. It's a little warm but beautiful, beautiful day here and sometimes I forget where I am, here in Fort McAllister near Savannah, Georgia. I think this is the final point, the shore line. Look at it, look at the gnat right there on the map. That gnat must be a history buff, huh? I'm assuming they're gnats. They look like houseflies but they bite. Number 20 here, this is the final point, the shoreline. And here we are, the shoreline. Can you imagine back in the day before the invention of bug spray? That must have been horrible. Get off me, get off me! And that concludes the self guided tour of Fort McAllister here. They have this trail here that goes around the fort but I don't think so. These are the historic photographs. And we're back, almost ready for departure. Site 38 here by the way, very nice, very large too. The only negative is that it is a little far away from Savannah, but could actually be a positive if you want to get away. (upbeat music) Away we go. Our first stop is going to be the Crab Shack on Tybee Island. As I mentioned, they claim to have oversized trailer parking and it is early, so it shouldn't be too busy. I don't know why we decided to come back to downtown and take this busy street. It is a scenic drive with all these oak trees and all that but still. (upbeat music continues) And here we are. I'm gonna park it right here in front of this bus. Well, we finally made it to the famous Crab Shack so many times recommended by our friend, Jim Forry. There's no other way to put it, it feels very touristy but it is the most famous spot here on the island. Oh, look at this place. It's got great ambiance for sure. Well, we got a table with a view. Good job. We got the crab stew, it's pretty good. Mm, it's hot. That's actually really good. And for the main event, check this out, I ordered a captain's platter with snow crab, mussels, crawfish, shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage and I don't really know how to eat crawfish. That was really good. (slow music) This place is huge by the way, all kinds of different areas and shops and animals. Wouldn't it be cool to arrive in a boat? There you are. Okay, so they didn't want to talk. They talked off camera, then when I turned on the camera. Ah, this was a cool place. One of us doesn't want to learn how to properly peel all the shrimp and gratin and especially the crawfish. They also have this pond with gators and being from Florida, not a big deal to me but it is cool that they have it and you can even feed the gators. That's it for the Crab Shack, the original Crab Shack. (slow music continues) Another place that comes highly recommend is the Wormsloe Plantation, especially because of the drive into it with all these oak trees and I'm sorry to disappoint, but we're not gonna do it today. You have to pay and it would take too long to do the whole thing and I had to save something for next time, right? Instead, I'm going to show you my trailering skills here and make a u-turn. It is Friday, so we do have a livestream today. Our final stop today, Debelation Brewing Company, a harvest host and this is where we're gonna spend the night. They are very organized the way that they check you in, and it is amazing to see how much harvest hosts has evolved and improved since the first time we tried 'em back in 2016. All right, let's check out the brewery. We do have one neighbor so far and there's another RV parked on that side of the brewery. Yeah, harvest host. We have a livestream to do, maybe we'll be back later. Right, so I'm using the Jackery to charge a little bit the battery so we are good and right now, I have the app here at 20 amps and it's charging at a rate of 1600 watts. I could lower it to 10 amps and then it will charge at a lower rate. For example, it's going down to 766 and the idea is not to push the Jackery over its limit. So 20 amp, it's going up to 1600, the Jackery can do 1800 watts. I wouldn't push it any more than that. So let me look here at the display right now, it's at 20 amps which is the breaker rating that I have right here. It's charging at 1600 watts and I think that's good. I think that's good, yeah, it's gonna give me probably about 20-30% extra battery which will last us through the night without having to use a generator and all that. It's cooling down so we're not gonna need the air conditioner anymore. Yeah, it is filling up. Just another cool night at the harvest host. See you tomorrow. (upbeat music) They do lock the gate at night but it is a combination lock and they give you the code so we're good. As I said, a lot of these harvest hosts have really fine tuned the system at this point. Now, the next destination is Acworth, Georgia. We're going to mooch dock with family, spend some quality time together, but what happens in Acworth usually stays in Acworth, so there's not a whole lot of video about that. Well, always good to hang out with the Georgia side of the family in Acworth. Great time last night and now, we're going to a new state. We're going to Tennessee. We're gonna spend a few days in Pigeon Forge and you probably saw part of this already as part of my Sun Outdoors sponsored video there, but now I'm gonna show you the rest chronologically as we are going there now. And as you know, I love the mountains, I love that area of Tennessee and North Carolina, the Appalachia, Blue Ridge, the Smokey mountains so yeah. And then from there, we continue north. It's good times, good times, good times coming. Now, the journey will take us to the mountains. On the next episode, we're going to spend some time in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, the Smokey mountains, then we'll mooch dock with longtime friends, the Gomez, formerly from Miami now from Waynesville, North Carolina, and the blowing rock in Virginia as we make our way through Appalachia to our first Lewis and Clark related destination, Harpers Ferry. Yeah, this is going to turn into a Lewis and Clark re-discovery trip eventually. Until then, thank you so much for watching and see you on the road. (upbeat music) ♪ I'm Riding ♪ ♪ Riding in my RV ♪
