  • I love this town! My name is Brian. I live on the road full time in my self built camper van. Join me on my adventures. In this video leave my camp at Pahranagat Wildlife Refuge near Alamo, Nevada. I head towards Cedar City, Utah. I find a nice free campsite off highway 14 in Cedar City. I really like this camp as it is so close to town and right on Coal Creek. No cell signal at the campsite though as well as no water, trash cans, or restrooms. Then I cook up dinner on my campstove. Thanks for watching!

    AM I THE ONLY ONE ? As I begin watching Brian's newest adventure while eating my oatmeal breakfast, with the Samsung Galaxy set on goole maps, with my left index finger at the ready to locate Brian's newest location. AVM is my first go to on my subscriptions on M/W/F mornings. Thanks Brian. (2 thumbs up).

    My childhood home was right across the valley from highway 14 from where you were driving. It was nice to see how beautiful everything still is in Cedar City. There was a huge hill not far from where you camped that my friends and I nicknamed Dinosaur hill. Good times. Loved your video.

    Hey Brian... great video... I was parked in the gravel pit across they highway from the entrance to this campground, it was Easter weekend and the CG was full, spent 2 nights there, had some business in Vegas the next week so it was convenient and free... Amazing... Have great travel... I'm in the Bryce Canyon area on a Dixie Forest dispersed camping area. ENJOY!! Caliente is a great little town also...

    💥💥💥 Couldn't help but to crack a smile when you said "Dang that is good! I love that stuff!"... 🤣 it does look delicious. Hey Brian, why not do a video about your pressure cooker? Maybe cover where to get one just like it, how and how long to cook rice, potatoes, oatmeal etc. I realize this info may already be obvious for some but, many people like me have never used a pressure cooker. Plus you can share your experiences and tips to save us a lot of trial and error mistakes. Stay safe! 🚐💨

  • @GeorgePencilArt

  • @nancynightingale6267
    @nancynightingale6267 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Do as the professional truck drivers do: ALWAYS CONDUCT A 15 MINUTE VEHICLE CHECK BEFORE TAKING OFF IN THE MORNING. Walk around, look underneath, check tires, lift hood.....look for leaks.....bend down and with a flashlight, if needed, and check for leaks. When you start off first thing in morning, at your very first stop, check for leaks under vehicle, again. LESSON LEARNED, EH, Brian ! And, as you did, always carry extra fluids: brake, oil, coolant, water for radiator. Have extra hose clamps, too. Extra headlight fuses/light bulbs (whatever is required for your vehicle). Think about what can leak, go wrong.....carry extra so you can get to that mechanic, if needed. Fan belts, too, if you're mechanically inclined. Lots o Duct Tape......that stuff fixes a multitude of bad things to carry you over until you can get vehicle into a shop.

    Gotta say though.....I'm a little peeved I didn't get a meal invite😉 but appreciate that your cooking session triggered the thought to bring my same pressure cooker; hadn't crossed my mind how useful it could be on the road.

    Howdee Brian! I followed the link to your Amazon store to see if your pressure cooker was there. It was indeed there! They have many different sizes of cookers. Yours looks perfect for one or two people, can you tell me please what size it is? Thanks for putting the GPS coordinates for your campsites in the description, that will really help more folks get to where they want to go more easily and faster! 💕🍀

    Great camping spots. I would like to see you get into some type of cool hobby for occupation,.. like maybe making arrowheads, or leather work, or better yet carving out some flutes,. anything to add to your on the road experience, and maybe make a little money.
    Just going from camp to camp, reading books and editing your videos must get kinda old for you. You could even make some beaded curtain room dividers,.. that's something I always wanted to do.
    When I get on the road I will be into my photograghy and videography, big time. And I may try my hand at making arrowheads, and maybe even the bead work.
    Just some suggestions, trying to be helpful and encouraging. Have fun, stay happy, with much peace. :-) ✌ 📷 ☕ 🌞

    do you have a cordless fan for keeping cool in the van and hanging out outside? Ryobi makes a nice cheap 18v cordless fan. Also better yet is the Arctic cove bucket top misting fan from homedepot as well. It also uses the Ryobi 18v batteries. Have you already looked at these two options? If so I'd like your feedback as I am getting ready to start the van life. Thanks take care!
