    I remember your old Astro van videos back in the day. Best of luck getting your channel back up. A lot of creators say the adsense isnt what it used to be back then. Maybe some sponsor deals in your future 👌

    Prolly better off that you don’t have a rig that you can dwell in. Cause the reality of van life can also be very depressing and isolating. Your setup is badass and it keeps you out in the world. Keep pushing brotha. I can relate to feeling like a broken alien in this world. You have my support from up here in the Olympic Peninsula.

    There are quite a few areas like that where I'm from in Arkansas. Old neighborhoods and towns that are a shadow of their former selves. Kind of neat to look at and sense all the history but on the other hand kind of sobering to know how temporary and fleeting so many things in life are. The home and house I grew up in are long gone, reduced to an ugly, overgrown lot. Heck, I recently watched this huge old mansion get demolished and thought, who knows how many people paid who knows how much money to live there over so many decades and now it's all gone. Nothing is forever, so I think it will help if we all quit worrying so much and live in the moment as much as we can.

    Glad you’re making videos again. I can’t do van 🚐 life again, now I just want my own place on some land in Virginia that’s the goal. Traveling ain’t my thing, once I’m in Virginia I can explore all over there the camps the rivers the lakes the hiking the trails etc. so much compared to Vegas life. I hope you find your spot that you don’t ever want to leave. I grew up in the dry desert 🏜️ so Virginia once I saw that I was in heaven ❤

    Ah Vernonia! Indeed a small mountain town. I grew up on the outskirts. Super cool to see my old town.
    If you drive through again definitely check out the abandoned mill pond area. Some of the mill is still standing and it’s spray painted. There’s some pretty nice art in there, my favorite being a girl on a swing. If you go further back there’s even more buildings but most are run to the ground. Not sure if it’s still standing but there’s an area back there that had wood bridges connecting stone platforms and a pretty sick stick fort. I spent many days after school in the forest amongst the rubble burning the fern out of monster cans haha

    You know, it's interesting what you said about how living on the road forces you to not stay in bed for extended periods. And as you also noted, when you're on the road you actually have to **do** stuff every day. I know a couple of people who could probably benefit from a long solo road-trip. I'm glad it's working for you ;-) Nice video! It's cool seeing those old houses, and the ruins of that mill. But it reminds us that nothing made by man (especially anything made out of wood) is permanent. Ashes to ashes. (Oh, and although I'm afraid of heights too, I still would've had to walk out to the center of that first bridge and pee into the stream below. I'm surprised you didn't. It's a guy thing.)

    I have treatment for decades for depression and it works well: medication. It's always good do non-pharmaceutical intervention such as exercise regularly. There is consistent scientific evidence of high quality showing is significantly improves moderate depression.
    I have been exercising for many health reasons and just got my blood pressure down to normal without medication, first time in several decades. I brought it down mostly with a whole food-plant based diet years ago but it was still stage 1 hypertension, which is usually not treated by doctors at that level. I still want it optimal. It helps control weight, also.
