We’re Tabby and Craig — a midlife couple who sold everything, bought a Class A motorhome named Trinity, and hit the road chasing freedom. Instead, we found RV breakdowns, black-tank battles, frozen mornings, and the kind of laughter that shows up when your house has wheels and terrible timing.
Recalculating Route is RV life unscripted: the repairs, the detours, the storms we outrun, and the midlife reinvention happening somewhere between Key West and Alaska. No filters. No perfection. Just real RV travel, real chaos, and humor that keeps us going when the plans fall apart.
If you’re into honest RV life, travel stories, repairs gone wrong, and midlife stubbornness, you’re our people. Subscribe and ride with us as we keep recalculating our way across America.
Recalculating Route
Well… this happened. 😅
Apparently my search history made it into the video.
Unedited.
Unfiltered.
Deeply embarrassing.
And one of you caught it.
@Bigmoney1997 — I both love you and fear you.
I have never laughed so hard replying to a comment in my life. That was elite-level detective work. 👏
Truth? At the end of this 10,000-mile RV adventure, Craig and I renewed our vows in a private beach ceremony. After breakdowns, border interrogations, injuries, snowstorms, and mechanical and mental meltdowns… we chose each other again.
And yes. When I don’t understand something, I research it thoroughly.
Apparently that becomes risky when you forget to clear your browser history.
Timestamp if you’re curious (and very observant): 01:17
We are 16 humans away from 1,000 subscribers.
What started as an RV road trip has turned into healing, humor, and a community that notices everything.
And honestly? I wouldn’t trade that.
🤣🤣🤣 Tabby

Recalculating Route
We’ve driven 4,000 miles.
Through breakdowns. Borders. ER wristbands.
And somehow… the thing that almost did us in?
Marriage. In 300 square feet. 😅
This week isn’t dramatic.
It’s worse.
It’s real.
It’s us trying to wash the bug graveyard off Trinity, arguing with a DVD player like it owes us money, and discovering that long-term RV life doesn’t test your engine…
It tests your patience.
No disasters.
No interrogation rooms.
Just British Columbia, sarcasm, and two people who absolutely did not read the fine print on “adventure.”
We are 22 people away from 1,000.
Which means this rolling circus finally starts paying for gas.
If you’ve been here since Key West — you’re family.
If you’re new — welcome to the shoebox.

Recalculating Route
Well… it’s Presidents Day.
And that got me thinking.
How did they stay married through all the
Revolutions, Wars, Public humiliation and Wig shortages?
Was it anything like us?
Bad decisions.
Strong opinions.
A little yelling across the RV.
And sarcasm thick enough to qualify as infrastructure.
(Yes, we know it’s a defense mechanism.
We’ve accepted it. We’ve named it. And thankfully you all watch it every week. 🥰)
Lucky #13 drops tomorrow.
Let’s just say… if marriage had a presidential fitness test, we’d barely pass but we’d still get the sticker.
We’re 26 humans away from a milestone that felt impossible four months ago.
If you’ve been quietly riding along with us… maybe it’s time to officially join the chaos.
See you tomorrow. 🇺🇸🚐
Tabby and Craig

Okay, real talk for a second.
We are 70 subscribers away from turning this rolling circus into an actual paycheck.
Not a yacht.
Not a sponsorship deal.
Just… proof that all the miles, breakdowns, ER visits, duct tape, and emotional spirals are doing something besides aging us prematurely.
If you’ve been watching quietly, binging episodes, laughing at our bad decisions, or yelling “WHY would you do that?” at your screen — this is your sign.
Hitting subscribe is the easiest way to keep this story moving forward.
It tells YouTube who this channel is for and helps make sure these videos actually land in the right hands — the ones who get real RV life, midlife chaos, and recalculating everything in real time.
New episode just dropped.
The Canada crossing.
The curveballs.
The fine print we definitely didn’t read.
If you’re already subscribed — you’re the reason we’re still rolling.
If you’re not — we could really use you right now. ❤️
Thanks for being here. Seriously.
😊♥️🤪

Recalculating Route
We finally made it into Canada… which sounds like a victory until you remember this is Recalculating Route. 😅
This episode has everything we’ve learned to expect from this trip:
plans wobbling, a border crossing that wasn’t exactly chill, real-life interruptions, and that moment where you realize a long road trip doesn’t care how close you are to the next milestone.
If you’ve been here since the beginning — thank you for riding through the recalculations with us.
And if you’re new… welcome. This is a 10,000-mile RV trip from Key West to Alaska where the wins are real, the chaos is earned, and the fine print always shows up late.
We’re getting really close to the next chapter for this channel, and honestly? It’s been wild watching this little corner of the internet grow with us.
New episode at 4pm TODAY 🚐
And yeah… Canada didn’t make it easy.

Recalculating Route
We were this close to crossing into Canada on camera…
and then Recalculating Route did what it does best.
The next episode was supposed to drop this week, but between birthday-week chaos, travel nonsense, and the universe adding a few unscheduled “character-building moments,” we decided not to rush this one.
This chapter matters. It’s the turning point.
So we’re taking a short recalculation, tightening the story, and making sure the Canada crossing episode lands the way it’s supposed to — honest, chaotic, and very on brand.
Thank you for riding with us through the delays, the detours, and the “why is it always like this” moments.
The border is coming. And of course… it’s not simple. 🚐✨
Retutning to our regular scheduled programming
✨️ Monday, February 9th✨️

Recalculating Route
🚨 NEW EPISODE DROPS TODAY 🚨
First of all… welcome to everyone who’s new here.
I see you. I appreciate you. And I’m sorry in advance. 😅
We’re 3 months into this 10,000-mile RV road trip from Key West to Alaska, and somehow we survived long enough to earn a reward:
✅ Craig’s aviation dream day
✅ An 80s nostalgia detour
✅ A full “how is this real life?” moment
In today’s episode we hit the Evergreen Aviation Museum and Craig basically turns into a kid again… because he got to step onboard the legendary Spruce Goose (Howard Hughes’ Hercules) and take a full tour inside. ✈️
Then we roll into Astoria, Oregon and everything goes full 80s:
🏠 The Goonies house
🚔 the movie jail
🤖 the Short Circuit house
🌊 Cannon Beach
Except… my back chose violence.
So Craig runs the whole Astoria mission solo while I’m in the RV like:
“Just smile through the pain, Tabby. You’re fine.” 😬
This is Recalculating Route…
where we chase childhood dreams and trip over reality.
📍Episode drops in 2 Hours
(And yes… it’s a GOOD one.)

We did it. 🥹🔥
Recalculating Route just hit our first level of monetization, and I’m honestly a little emotional about it.
Not in a cute influencer way…
More like “wow… people actually stayed through the repairs, the breakdowns, the injuries, the chaos, AND my dramatic spirals in the passenger seat” way.
So seriously… thank you.
For watching. For commenting. For laughing with us. For caring.
For sticking with this weird little RV road trip from Key West to Alaska when it’s been anything but smooth.
🚐💨 NEW EPISODE DROPS TODAY at 4PM EST
We drove our RV through 3 disasters in 24 hours…
Snow. Ice. Flooding.
Because apparently we’re collecting weather trauma like Pokémon cards.
And if you’re new here… welcome 😅
This is real RV life, real marriage, real chaos… and we’re doing our best to keep Trinity alive.
👉 Make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss what happens next.
(Trust me… this series gets worse before it gets better.)
And For those of you that were asking about HYPE…it's active now Baby!
Subscribe, if you haven't already because therapy is expensive and RV parts are worse.

Recalculating Route
So… remember how this trip was supposed to be about adventure?
Yeah. Today’s episode starts with our RV smoking in the middle of the desert near Area 51. Which feels like an aggressive pivot.
We’re a couple hours late because this one took longer to finish — mostly because reliving it required snacks, deep breaths, and at least one “are we actually okay?” check.
This isn’t a fun detour episode.
This is the something’s wrong episode.
The kind where the jokes are masks, the stress is loud, and you start wondering if this is how OUR horro movie starts.
🎥 New episode is live at 6pm EST
Stranded in Our RV Near Area 51 — Something’s Smoking
Thanks for riding with us through the chaos. If you’re here, you’re officially part of the recalculation.
— Tabby and Craig
