1:17
about who's over there
1:19

1:21
and then we got go code Overland
1:25
Valley High
1:27
so Valley High is actually getting ready
1:29
to do a
1:31
talk over here about electrical systems
1:35
so I might do a little coverage of that
1:38
but guys if you can look
1:41
in the foreground or the background
1:44
look at all these vans
1:51
I have not counted the Vans yet
1:55
but the way this venue is set up uh I
1:57
started over there and that is where the
2:00
stage is and then over here we've got
2:02
the uh
2:04
the van Life pavilion so that's where
2:06
they're you know selling shirts and
2:08
stuff like that
2:09
the mini Donuts from glaze to confuse
2:13
man I almost had to take another nap
2:14
after I ate those they were they were
2:16
they make them fresh they were super
2:19
good
2:21
um got a couple more vendors over here
2:23
on the right
2:26
uh this is the Talking Tree I think
2:28
that's what they called it
2:31
Breaking Bad barbecue
2:34
baking bread barbecue I had that twice
2:37
yesterday it was phenomenal
2:41
there we go dinar home style Southern
2:44
cuisine
2:45
so the food truck game is good over here
2:48
we've got good food so if you didn't
2:51
bring food it's okay
2:54
uh over here on the left side we're
2:57
gonna go left to right
2:59
so left side is the uh I think this is
3:01
was the bigger RV hookups
3:05
and then if you guys are Storyteller
3:08
fans
3:09
this is the Storyteller Lane
3:12
so the way that it's set up and I'll
3:14
I'll show you guys later on the Drone
3:16
video that I took but you have all these
3:18
Avenues
3:19
so you got Storyteller then you get like
3:21
the Revel
3:24
um
3:25
I believe that's uh Scott Watson way
3:29
and then there's a bunch of other ones
3:32
so we'll just we'll get through here in
3:33
just a second
3:35
yeah but the storytellers are really
3:37
cool
3:41
right there
3:46
travados there you go
3:48
Jamie spotted this travado
3:51
looks like we're doing a YouTube live
3:53
hiking hide and seek here
3:56
but again the rebels
3:57
everyone loves winnipego Rebel
4:01
Travato
4:05
yeah hopefully this video is not too
4:07
shaky
4:08
I'm just doing on the cell phone we
4:10
don't have the fancy setup today
4:14
I promise you guys I would do some live
4:16
footage
4:20
let's see is it cool
4:21
all these rows
4:25
just rows and rows of vans
4:35
all right hold on I'm trying to not make
4:37
you guys seasick here
4:39
we go we got
4:41
more Vans and
4:44
I wish I could interview all these Vans
4:46
I met a lot of great people
4:49
uh I actually helped
4:51
that couple over there and they locked
4:53
their keys in the van and uh
4:55
I rigged up a coat hanger method to
4:57
unlock the van for him so
5:00
they're super happy so
5:03
that was fun guys if you're watching
5:04
this later
5:05
that was a fun
5:07
little MacGyver project
5:10
and we've got uh
5:13
good ambulance here that's been
5:14
converted
5:15
I definitely want to come back and do an
5:18
interview with a van tour with them
5:22
so I want to do this ambulance
5:25
and then there's a schooly that I also
5:28
want to do
5:30
but yeah
5:35
so the vibe here you know the energy at
5:37
this event is so relaxed I mean it is
5:43
very very
5:44
relaxed inter so it's so relaxed here
5:46
that I'm really having to stick to my
5:48
to-do list to cover
5:51
to get the footage that I want
5:54
because uh
5:56
yeah it's a
5:58
it's like that
6:05
so I may ask
6:08
Josh one of the organizers
6:11
how many Vans we actually have here
6:17
but there's a lot
6:20
there's a school bus back there in the
6:22
back
6:24
look at this
6:26
Dodge Sprinter Airstream was falia I've
6:30
never I've never seen one of these
6:31
before
6:35
oh these guys got lucky over here we've
6:37
got shade
6:41
that's right not good for solar but good
6:43
for staying same cool
6:49
um I don't think so Jamie I don't think
6:52
I don't think that is here
6:55
foreign
7:01
but yeah a lot of DIY builds
7:17
yeah hopefully this is not too shaky
7:23
Solus is I have not seen I'm sure one or
7:27
two are here
7:28
uh but I've not seen
7:30
I'm not seeing them
7:32
so this is a really nice
7:36
this this schooly it has a dual mini
7:39
split
7:41
that's that's serious you need uh
7:44
you need some serious power to run that
7:52
yeah
7:54
that is nice
8:08
thank you
8:12
so just give you guys a it's just a main
8:16
interview
8:21
that wind is probably picking up
8:24
all right so let me get let me get over
8:28
here before we get run over
8:33
all right so we're gonna walk back to
8:37
we're gonna walk back to the beginning
8:40
of the event
8:42
uh so we'll end the stream when we get
8:44
back to the stage
8:46
but if any of you guys have uh questions
8:48
while we are out here
8:51
go ahead and ask me those questions
8:55
I'll try to do a couple more of these
8:57
streams
9:01
the weather's perfect out here it's like
9:04
for like 72 74 degrees
9:10
so since we got the
9:13
iPhone here
9:16
we can't get too wide so let's go ahead
9:18
and flip around
9:20
there we go
9:22
yeah so there's I mean all kinds of uh
9:28
yeah look at the sky
9:30
it's a nice day in Florida guys
9:33
yeah hopefully this uh I mean I'd say
9:35
this event is a success look at this on
9:38
the right side
9:39
that's all day parking
9:42
these are just people coming for the day
9:44
this is not the people that are
9:47
um
9:48
registered or camping for the event
9:52
and uh so I met a guy Stephen over there
9:57
we did a full van tour of his van
10:00
and
10:02
it's really great because I know you
10:04
guys see a bunch of uh
10:09
hold on a second
10:11
I know you guys see a bunch of builds
10:13
that are extremely expensive
10:16
and it might be overwhelming if you're a
10:18
diyer and doing custom builds
10:21
are you just a DIY trying to do a simple
10:23
build so his build
10:25
is extremely simple
10:28
and I mean he's like a he's a true van
10:31
lifer I mean he really travels from here
10:34
from Florida where this this is actually
10:36
his hometown
10:37
drives all the way to California
10:40
he manages uh
10:43
uh Stephen I'll mess this up
10:45
he he does uh
10:49
cattle
10:51
like helps
10:52
managed cattle or something like that
10:54
anyway super outdoors guy and so his van
10:58
is a very utilitarian he did the whole
11:00
entire thing by himself uh it's got a
11:02
really cool interior
11:06
I'm gonna flip around here we're at the
11:08
uh
11:09
second side of the
11:12
storytellers
11:14
and we're just making a big circle
11:17
so again look at this guys this is day
11:20
parking
11:21
so these people are not here overnight
11:23
they are just here to hang out
11:26
and experience the event
11:29
Thomas is over there with his uh van
11:31
Marine one and he's crushing it he's
11:34
doing a great job
11:35
talking to everybody at the event
11:40
talking about his van talking about his
11:42
story
11:44
so
11:45
really really cool
11:49
but we're gonna walk over here
11:53
we'll go by the stage and I'll do one
11:56
more pass on the left to show you the
11:59
other vendors
12:01
that are here
12:02
I've picked out two of them that I
12:04
definitely want to get on camera
12:12
yeah guys as uh
12:14
as I do these streams hopefully this is
12:16
not the last one I'm gonna do this
12:17
weekend
12:18
but I definitely want to hear your input
12:20
I want to hear questions on what do you
12:22
want to look what you're looking for as
12:24
far as

12:38
knowledgeable people we've got man

12:48
far as uh Vans go it's pretty pretty
12:51
standard as far as manufacturer designed
