For me to relax, I love ❤️ reading 📚 and going to walks.

[@theregoesgail]

Love this!

[@thegoodfight426]

That was a God wink!😘 (the veteran encounter) The chances of this happening are nothing short of miraculous! If we know that something as simple as a brick wall didn't come together without an intelligent designer, we know that our intricate bodies and souls didn't either! Just know sweet Gail, you are loved beyond anything you have ever known!!! Jesus thinks you are to die for!!!❤❤❤

[@bonniepwtf]

What are the odds of that man not only encountering both you & your father separately but speaking with you both. Incredible really! Hope you have a safe & fun trip.

[@theregoesgail]

Right?! So strange and yet comforting. Thank you, Bonnie!

The ferry out to the San Juan Islands is incredible. So beautiful. The island themselves were great but the ferry trip was almost the best part for me.

[@theregoesgail]

Thank you so much!!!!

[@megmulholland4518]

I have had a similar experience in my life, an event so seemingly implausible and meaningfully coincidental, that it just rocks you to your core. It happened years and years and years ago, and the wonderment of it has never left me. Just the sheer "what are the odds?" nature of it... Listening to your talk about your own episode with this kind of thing resonated deeply! Great video, Gail!

[@theregoesgail]

So happy you enjoyed the video 🙏🏻 and 100%! I feel like the wonderment will never fade

Introspection to understand yourself, examine yourself, question and take responsibility for it all is the wisest and most beneficial thing a person can do. Taking responsibility for one’s choices, making changes in one’s behavior and thinking when necessary. The rest of your life will thank you.

Hi Gail! When I want to relax I bring my phone or tablet into my bedroom and lay down and watch KZbin videos. Its also relaxing to me to go on a walk and end up at my favorite store - Dollar Tree. Its relaxing walking around Dollar Tree at a leisurely pace and looking at everything in the store. I feel like I am alone in the store. Even though there may be other people in the store. I relax with cooking and especially baking. Listening to music. Eating blueberry oatmeal relaxes me. Your voice relaxes me. I just decorated for Fall even though its July and summer.decorating relaxes me. Especially Fall decor. Fall is my favorite season. I just want this long hot summer to be gone. I am ready for cold fronts. August 12 th my birthday is the first day of school here in Central Florida. When school starts to me its the start of Fall. I keep my Fall decorations up until November. I add Halloween decorations to my Fall decorations. Shopping at Aldi relaxes me. Its the cheaper prices I think is what relaxes me. Lol. Shopping on Amazon relaxes me. Doing a Kroger grocery delivery order relaxes me. With all of the sales and digital coupons I save alot of money. Journaling relaxes me. Anyways very much enjoyed your video. Enjoy your trip.💜

Every time I drink, I make that sound you just demonstrated. 🤣🤣🤣🤣How do you spell it? I’ve been doing it for a long time. I'm currently at Mt. Ashland in Oregon, about a five-hour drive from Portland. You'll love it here! If you’re ever near Mt. Ashland, PLEASE send me a message. Have a wonderful time and safe travels! WE GOT THE CALL TODAT - Stem cell transplant will be in October. We will have to live in Portland next door to hospital they have a special facility for patients and family or in this case me for 6 weeks - 2 weeks in the hospital for transplant and 4 weeks next door to OHSU ( brilliant hospital). Sigh I’m scared ❤💜💜💜🫶🏻

After your reveal of your monthly rent. It’s a reminder on why I left NYC. Don’t know how you hold it all up . High rent , yoga, just the NY life style and going away for ten days. I guess do it while you can. Simplicity and decompress is always needed. Stay grounded. 😊

[@christinegreen287]

Hi Gail! Another great video! I went to Seattle a few years ago and fell in love with lattes. This was before they were common. But I couldn’t figure out why I hardly slept on that trip. Duh!! 3 lattes a day and all that espresso was the reason!! Travel safe! 💖 Chris

[@theregoesgail]

Gail, I came across a video that had the piece you made into artwork on your wall. From what I saw, it used to have mirrors in the holes. I saw it and was like, hey, that looks familiar! So came back to tell you what it was. 😊

So funny!! Thanks for letting me know 😊

How and where do you do your laundry? Is there machines in the building? Or do you pay someone to do it for you?

Just got back from Seattle on Tuesday. Did Portland as well!

[@theregoesgail]

I’d love any Portland recs! 😊

[@julied5444]

@@theregoesgail We stayed at The Mark Spencer Hotel. Powell’s City of Books is huge and similar to Strand Books. We were just in Portland one day on a PNW road trip from San Francisco so our only dinner was at Hana Sushi and Izakaya 138 nw 10th ave. They have the conveyor belt sushi which was so cool and the food was so good. You can also order off the menu. Very inexpensive! Salt & Straw for ice cream. Last we went to the Portland Japanese Garden on our way to Seattle. Highly recommend! Have fun!

well when you don't have a "job" to go to for 40hrs+ week outside your place where you sleep you HAVE to set up a 'routine' in order to maintain somesort of direction to feel that you are making movement & ENJOY every moment because ...you never know it could be your last.......Enjoy the journey. Good book, & a classic to read is Gail Sheehy's "Passages".....Teddy Blake makes some nice affordable bags

Thank you for the book recommendation!

Aww your videos are over too quickly! Thank you for not going deep into politics. I am a fierce Patriot and I cannot watch video creators that “mix business with pleasure” if you get my drift. Of course I recognize this is your channel and you do as you please! I’ll miss you for the 10 days you are gone as I assume we will have to wait on your vaca video. I hope it’ll be a long video.

ICK! Disappointing that you are still using Better Help. Do some research. You work full time so surely you could be a little bit more discerning, regards who you align yourself with? Most YT’s have come to their senses re these guys. I quickly scrolled through that ad bit but still…not cool.

Sorry that you feel this way! They’ve been a great help to me and people that I know, but we can agree to disagree 🙂
