Beautiful View

In the Beautiful View Podcast we want to not only share about some of the beautiful places we have been, and beautiful experiences we’ve had, but we also want to take it a little deeper and have a positive and encouraging message in each episode.

Today we are celebrating our first year because of you, our listeners and viewers, with hopes and plans for many more to come!

We are Paul & Candy.  Welcome to our podcast where we look for opportunities in our lives to see a beautiful view. Sit back and relax!

We are going to interview our children today about their experiences of growing up on the road. We were full-time RVers for a little over 6 years. When we hit the road in 2015, Emily was 11 and Tyler was 6 years old. So, what was life like on the road for them?

It's "Tool Time"! We found out that living the RV lifestyle involves staying on top of maintenance and doing our own repairs. We review some of the tools that we could not do without!

As many of our listeners know, our family lived and traveled the country for 6.5 years in our 5th Wheel RV.  We get questions all the time about what that was like. Many people say that they love the idea of full-time RVing, but probably would never do it themselves for one reason or another. In this episode, we are going to share the pros and the cons we found while living this lifestyle.
