They 14 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: loved going to their grandpa's house. I totally understand. I 15 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: love going to my grandparents' house. How about you, guys? Oh, 16 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: it's so fun. What's your favorite thing to do at 17 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: your grandparents' place that maybe you can't do at home? 18 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: Sometimes maybe they might have a little bit more sweet 19 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: things to eat, am I right? Yeah? Or maybe there's 20 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: something special that you get to do there. I remember 21 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: growing up and going to my grandparents' house because that 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: is where I got to go fishing, and I loved 23 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: fishing very much. I still do. Actually, me and my 24 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: boys we love to go fishing together. Well, Arlow and Callum. 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: They were excited. Their grandpa's place always had the greatest 26 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: of mysteries there. There were a lot of old things 27 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: and a lot of things that had some great stories 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: behind them, and their grandpa was an amazing storyteller. Harlow, 29 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: are you ready? I have everything that we need for 30 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: the best day ever, said Callum. Yep, I'm just putting 31 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: my shoes on and then let's head out, said Arlow. 32 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: Arlow and Callum climbed into their parents' car and off 33 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: they drove. They were gonna spend the whole weekend with 34 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: their grandpa, which meant it was gonna be a ton 35 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: of fun. As they pulled into his driveway, their grandpa 36 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: is already sitting on a rocking chair on the front porch, 37 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: waving his arms ecstatically. Hey boys, how are you doing? 38 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: Arlow and Callum basically jumped out of the car before 39 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: it even stopped and jumped into their grandpa's arms. Wow, 40 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: you guys are getting bigger, said their grandpa. Arlow and 41 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: Callum grabbed their stuff and in they went and waved 42 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: goodbye to their parents, and in their grandpa's house, they 43 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: ran all right, Well, what kind of adventures are we 44 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: gonna do today? Said their grandpa. Arlow pulled out a 45 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: list from his pocket. Well, I was thinking we could 46 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: do a ton of things, like maybe make cookies, or 47 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: we could build a fort, or an adventure hike or 48 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: story time or the last option is all of the above. 49 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: All three of them laughed together. Those all three of 50 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: those sounded great. Callum said, could we go on an adventure? Like? 51 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: Is there somewhere on your property that we haven't explored yet? 52 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: Their grandpa thought for a second and put his chin 53 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: in his hand as he thought, hmm, well, yes, on 54 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: the west side of the property. We we haven't spent 55 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: much time over there. There's a whole bunch of brush 56 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: that's been overgrown, and maybe there could be some cool 57 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: things from a long time ago in there. Yeah, strap 58 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: on your shoes, grab some hiking sticks, and let's get going, 59 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: said there Grandpa. The three of them busted through the 60 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: back door and off the two ran. Arlo and Callum 61 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: were a little bit fast to them their grandpa, but 62 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: Their grandpa loved seeing them run and race. As the 63 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: three of them all started heading west on the property, 64 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: they could see up ahead exactly what their grandpa was 65 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: talking about. Callum, do you see all that stuff? Well, 66 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: look at all those vines, and wow, it's so thick, 67 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 1: said Arlow. Callum was the first one there and said, guys, 68 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: look at this. It's like a wall of ivy and 69 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: sticks and trees and I can't even get through. Well, 70 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: I brought some pruning shears with me. Let's let's see 71 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: if we can cut our way through, said their grandpa 72 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: as he started snipping away at the ivy and the leaves. 73 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: Arlow and Callum grabbed on the branches and pulled them 74 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: out of the way. They were right. It was like 75 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: a complete total wall that was way too thick to 76 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: crawl your way through. The only way in was to 77 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: cut a path in. As their grandpa was trail blazing 78 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: and cutting his way through, he formed a little bit 79 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: of a tunnel that allowed them to maybe squeeze through. 80 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: Harlow Callum, why don't why don't you guys crawl in 81 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: first and take a look in there. Callum's eyes were 82 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: really big. Uh, I don't know what if there's some 83 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: creepy crawleys in there, Harlow, you go first. Arlow took 84 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: a deep breath and rolled up his sleeves. He got 85 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: on all fours and started to crawl his way in. Yeah, 86 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: there's there are some spider webs. Oh, there's a big one. 87 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: He grabbed a stick and poked the spider web out 88 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: of the way. There. Okay, he kind of opens up 89 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: ahead up here. Holy smokes, guys, you're not gonna believe this, 90 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: shouted Arlow. The path that Arlow had been crawling through 91 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: had finally opened up into a bigger section. He was 92 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: now how completely surrounded. It was kind of like a forest, 93 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: but it was more like a dome, a dome of 94 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: ivy and leaves and branches. But inside it was something 95 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: that he never expected. Harlow, are you okay in there? 96 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: We're coming, shouted the grandpa from outside. It only took 97 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: a few more seconds before Callum and their grandpa rolled 98 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: into that room that Arlo was in. WHOA, holy oh wow. 99 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: It was at that moment that all three of them 100 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: were now standing inside of this forest dome. But inside 101 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: there stood an is that an RV, said Callum. It was. 102 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: It was like a really old RV. Do you know 103 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: what an RV is? Yeah, it's like it's like a 104 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 1: something you can drive and live in inside. It's really 105 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: cool if you want to go on like long road 106 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: trip ventures. And well, this one was silver and it 107 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: was really old and covered in some ivy and start 108 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: and sticks and stuff. But it was very surprising that 109 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: this was there. Boys, I've never owned an RV myself, 110 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: and I don't even know where this came from. Arlow 111 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: immediately started pulling the ivy and leaves and stuff off 112 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: of the door so that they could open it. Ugh, 113 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: there this all, doupe. He finally got everything pulled off 114 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: the door to the RV so that they could open it. Grandpa, 115 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: do you want to do it? There could be like 116 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: a skeleton inside, said Callum. All right, boys, stand back. 117 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: Their grandpa grabbed onto the door handle, and as the 118 00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: door swung opened, they were instantly hit with a of dust. Wow, 119 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: look inside there, said their grandpa. Arlow and Callum poked 120 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: their heads in the door and looked around. It was 121 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: a very strange looking r V, not a normal one. 122 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: There were lots of screens and buttons, but everything was 123 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: very old, All right, doesn't look like there's any skeletons 124 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: in here. Arlow jumped in, with Callum close behind. Look 125 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: at all these buttons, and holy smokes, what is this thing? 126 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,599 Speaker 1: Callum said. As they searched around and looked around. It 127 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: was pretty amazing. All right, well, just be careful to 128 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: not touch anything. I don't know what this is going 129 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: to do, said their grandpa, and just then Callum accidentally 130 00:08:50,000 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: bumped into one of the buttons. Instantly, the whole inside 131 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: of the RV was filled with all these bright flashing lights, 132 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: and the RV started to shake and buzz, and then 133 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: it started to fly off of the ground. B everybody, 134 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 1: hold on and sit down. Arlow and Callum jumped into 135 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: some seats, followed by their grandpa who buckled in and 136 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: instantly the RV was now floating over the forest. Their 137 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: grandpa jumped into the driver's seat, leaned back and said, 138 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: all right, do you guys want to see what she 139 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: can do? Yes, let's go, shouted Arlow and Callum together, 140 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: and off they blasted. This RV was actually some kind 141 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: of magical RV that could fly around. And even though 142 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: this is the end of our story, it's only the 143 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: beginning of Arlow and Callum's Great RV adventure with their Grandpa. 144 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: The end.
