Beach Camping in New Mexico

[@lauriej4597]

Your videos always make me calm and appreciate the simple things in life. I’m starting to realize that simpler is better. Thank you for not bringing drama into these videos like so many KZbinrs do, but you instead bring nature’s beauty to us in all its glory. Hobbs is one lucky dog to be so well cared for by both of you. Best wishes from Florida. 🌴👍

Same reason I’ve been following Brian all these years. He calms my anxiety.

[@dmac9489]

Well said couldn’t agree more

[@pamelam1500]

That moon was gorgeous!!!

[@mirandamom1346]

I’m moonstruck!

[@TXMEDRGR]

I admire the many tricks, hacks, and ways you have learned to make van life comfortable. Thanks for sharing.

[@msvg3]

Beach, desert and mountains. What more would you want? Brian, you take us to the most interesting places. Hi Kelly and Hobbs! ✌💗🚐

[@timshel011]

Trees please...would be nice

[@AdventureVanMan]

@timshel011 check my latest video for the trees🤙🏼

[@janicepeck4828]

Some folks like slots of trees then there's me I like trees ,but, since I live, (my home base, ) smack dab in the middle of a whole bunch of very tall trees , Give me wide open spaces when traveling in my little class C Ladybug,in N.Mexico. Thanks Brian & Kelly.Hobbs, you and I are about the same speed. and your very handsome! I sure like what the beach area has to offer. Great lake,mt. views ,sunrise/set , moon ,THE BEST night light. Thank you very much from OK.

[@SilverFox80521]

How funny I’m pretty sure I can see your camper from my camper. I’m at EB state park right now too lol.

[@gwh21375]

Just going back through some of my favorite videos of yours. I sure do miss Mr. Hobbs. Such a good boy!❤

[@angiet3224]

I love this video 😊 The view was amazing! I couldn’t believe how big the moon was. Thank you for sharing about the devices. What a great idea for the inverter with the hair clippers.

[@sisterearth]

I use to stay in Truth or Consequences and hung out at Elephant Butte often while there. Such a beautiful oasis . 😊

[@NewtonWashinton]

Nice calm relaxing video, beautiful area with a cool water lake to get the heat off you. 👍👍

[@zygotepeyote]

Your hitting all of my old haunts lately Brian. Spent too many days to count camping and fishing at The Butte while I was stationed at Ft, Bliss in El Paso. It is a beautiful lake with great facilities and nice people when I was there. Thanks for the trip to the lake. Stay Safe and Take Care! Please give Hobbs a treat!

[@calvinmarshall1610]

The water looked amazing looking forward to the next episode

[@theathjr]

Those sunsets and sunrises are most definitely worth $8 per night. Add in that beautiful lake and I would say you found a gem of a campsite. Safe Travels Amigos 👊

[@johnadams7323]

Hey Bryan, you are the first channel I started watching years ago, today is my first day as a Nomad,( sold the house). I live in Albuquerque and spend time at the Butte, so it is cool that you are there. It seems that things have come full circle.👍 I recommend JACKS CREEK CAMPGROUND IN THE PECOS beautiful area. Good luck and safe travels 👍

[@journeyswithlittletpage1669]

There's nothing like those unobstructed sunrise and sunset views!

[@justlivingmylife]

Whatever camera you’re using is spectacular because it’s so clear and great color. I throughly enjoy your channel for a long time great places and always good for a tip or two and love Hobbs, Kelly and you! ❤👍

[@stevexray6253]

That place has fantastic sunrises and sunsets. That food looked fantastic too! 😁👍

[@Thelifeofwiley]

Old Hobbs, living the life

[@Grevlain]

Hobbs looks so happy! Living his best retired life!

[@GrayGray-l2d]

Nice clarity with the camera, the sunrises and sunsets and moon were great. I love New Mexico, and lived in Taos for 8 years, missing the red and green chile. Thumbs up also.👍👍

[@rickanderson11]

What a beautiful camping spot!! Thanks for your sharing as always, Brian.

[@WisconsinWanderer]

Great to see you guys 😊and a way we goooo!😊

[@AutumnRowan]

I love the Ryobi tools for camping and in my off grid house. Charge the batteries during the day when the sun is out, use them any time.

[@miklrb]

Hey Brian, you found one of my favorite stops when I am going from Boulder to Arizona. Always enjoyed my stays, very peaceful, something about water that just takes everything down a notch. Nice videography, as usual, love the sun and moon shots. Glad you guys enjoyed your stay, travel safe my friend.

[@freespirithippie6857]

Love that you have a step for Hobs to get on bed.

[@deborahduncan8202]

love the sound of the water lapping on the shore, could listen to it all day

[@eloyrodarte1083]

I have the 10 inch chain saw. Works great. I love their One-Plus system. All my lights work on the One-Plus inverter with a 3 Amp-Hour battery.

[@AdventureVanMan]

Ryobi has a bug zapper now!😆

[@VantasyAdventure]

Hello 👋 from Pennsylvania 😃

[@TheInappropriateArtist]

My favorite place!!! I love painting the Fra. Cristobal mountains!

[@Lois5650]

Nice! Thanks!

[@bonniepwtf]

You sure are doing some amazing filming in all these recent videos. So much beauty out there & I thank you for sharing it with us. Hobbs is being so well cared for, happy happy.✌️🏞🏖 🚚

[@fitter70]

Great video as usual!

[@Hiker_who_Sews]

I like the frozen dog treat thingy that Hobbs was enjoying. I'm pretty sure my best friend needs one. Thanks for the tip!

[@RicG.]

Great looking campsite at the beginning of the vid and also on the beach!

[@TM-ev2tc]

I always try to keep a little flashlight in my pocket all the time. Just in case I need one.

[@3generations393]

Thanks for showing Hobbs cooling vest-I will have to look that up. Have a blessed weekend y'all ❌⭕, Iris & Little One 👋🐾

[@RickRose]

Looks like a beautiful spot. Thanks for sharing!

[@vtownpaddy517]

Looks fantastic!!-VTown Paddy Patrick

[@brybar69]

Thanks for letting me see what it looks like! I've been wanting to go there for years. Maybe someday soon. I'm getting geared up now to start my dispersed camping life...a lot of things I need to acquire! Stay safe out there!

[@TRountree54]

So serene by the water. Sunset with moon over water was AWESOME!

[@freedomdove]

I love the cooling vest for Hobbes. 👍

[@rgold02]

Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. Goldie in Jacksonville Florida

[@wanderingoutyonder]

Looks like an awesome park with an excellent spot! “Keep making memories & adventure on!” ~Karen & Shannon WOY

[@marketinginmass]

Hey Brian. Another relaxing day at camp!

[@deetrvl4life875]

Always a real pleasure to watch your videos! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@flyontop]

Please stay longer and share it with us 😂 your videos are always a treat. Blessings

[@louparry7721]

Wow! now that's what I call the perfect place to camp. The Beach!!!!! Your dinner looked wonderful. Mr. Hobbs is so content. what a wonderful retirement he is having. Thanks for sharing, your friend, Louise

[@danrandall794]

Another great spot. Amazing how cool lake water will keep you cool for a couple hours. When I was a kid and when it was hot we always went to the lake to cool off before sunset. No A.C. of course in the house. It was too hot upstairs so my Brother and I slept in our screened in porch most of the summer. Great memories. Great to see Miss Kelly and you guys enjoying life. I have many of those Ryobi tools including a small blower that I sometimes use to clean things up.

[@AdventureVanMan]

Very similar growing up with no A/C. My dad did install an above ground pool though. We'd be in there after dark some summer nights!😆

[@scable-eq7bp]

Very cool campsite.....

[@moricey4776]

What was Hobbs barking at? That beach was a nice change of living for you all! 👍🏻🇺🇸. ☕️☕️☕️☕️🍝🍜🫵🏻

[@goodwaterhikes]

Nice change being by the lake 😎✌

[@tmcdou737]

The moon was amazing!

[@freespirithippie6857]

Hi Brian, you're close to Faywood Hotsprings NM....wonderful rustic resort.

[@RicG.]

Great to see Miss Kelly! 😊

[@GRelayer]

Another top notch adventure! :)

[@simplymejourney998]

Beautiful blue water

[@stratos175escape7]

In slow cooker in can be frozen solid and will cook just fine, in my opinion meat holds more moisture when frozen.

[@lynnef3297]

Thanks again for another beautiful vlog sharing sunset and moonrise and so much more ❣️ 😊👍

[@nancycain4434]

Beautiful area. Thanks for taking us along. Hobbs is adorable.

[@Lisa-ud6qz]

[@keithbrookshire]

[@skipdippity]

I so liked Kelly…dang it. I really like to watch your cooking sir..!

[@Kojack65]

You’re such a good cook Brian! 😋

[@billholemo2518]

You have a great Camera!!😂

[@jennifergrody]

I remember this check point.. it being my first I wasn’t sure what to expect but he just waved us on.. I know right where you are.. we stopped there back in 2016.. husband was curious because he is a huge fisherman. So beautiful! I will ALWAYS love New Mexico!

[@deborahg4599]

I have the same vacuum! Lol I do like Ryobi products!

[@billholemo2518]

How Beautiful!! 😂😂❤❤❤

[@Kayte...]

8$ seems well worth it. Great moon set pic!

[@vanwhalen3719]

Fantastic!

[@MoutainGuyAdventures]

Looks like a great place to chill. I need to check that out one day. Thanks for another vid.

[@lindapeterson5810]

Beautiful ❤!

[@HeyitsDeirdre]

great video nice vacuum

[@alchristensen8121]

The last time I was a Elephant Butte it happened to be July 4th weekend and there were hundreds of rigs set up by the water. All day the next day a half dozen 6x6 military trucks - Duce-and-a-halves and 5-tons - made money pulling RVs out of the sand and up the hill. I take it you guys didn't have that problem. One of my favorite things at NM state parks is the showers. No coins or tokens needed, just keep pushing the button every couple of minutes.

[@AdventureVanMan]

We went on a Tuesday/Wednesday. The park would have to pay me to camp there on a weekend!🤣

[@thizizliz]

What a lovely spot - and a great view too. Seems like a bargain for the price. Oh golly, I need to dig down into the freezer - I think we have a pork loin somewhere. We really like it because it's tender and moist but lean as well as flavorful. Good idea. Hobbs has really taken to the camp life, hasn't he? It has to be good for him to move outdoors and get more active.

[@WatersandWilderness]

I just love that Hobbs is staying with the two of you.

[@gomaverick3031]

Thank you for sharing so many helpful tips for making life on the road easier and more affordable.

[@SonyaBayham]

Great video, as always, beautiful and calming. I think it would be difficult to move before necessary.

[@MsCar2008]

Beautiful, hope you enjoy .

[@georgiacorey954]

So pretty sunrise & sunsets. Beach camping is my favorite. TY for sharing

[@jimsteele7108]

Hi Kelly!

[@georgecorreia5314]

Thank you for the video

[@kitaoden703]

Great Video Love the beauty of Nature 💝 Hi Kelly and Hobbs 🐾✌️🌵⛰️

[@jeffsauer2198]

good times... so glad you and Kelly have Hobbs... he looks to be enjoying life!

[@gailshaversjr1773]

Another great video. Always a pleasure to ride along.✌🏻😊

[@pacoluna1091]

If you wanted some shade you could have camped at Percha Dam, Caballo Lake or go West to the Gila Wilderness. There Bear Lake, Sapillio Canyon, Bill Evans, Lake Robert's and Snow Lake. Most are free camping. 👍 👍

[@AdventureVanMan]

thanks, I have a pretty tight gas budget.🤙🏼

[@pacoluna1091]

@@AdventureVanMan Percha and Caballo are closer to Elephant Butte, you passed them on your way to the Butte, lol

[@AdventureVanMan]

@pacoluna1091 oh sorry, I guess I should have elaborated. My route is already planned out based on my minimal funds. Even a couple small detours put me in the red.🤙🏼

[@slyborg1]

What a gorgeous video. It looks like absolute paradise. Thanks for including the meal prep. It's fun to see how you eat well with lots of variety. Always great to have a one-sided visit with you.

[@cynthiam3319]

Beautiful spot. You did well documenting the scenery. I've enjoyed seeing New Mexico in your videos. I usually pass through, but now might try some spots. Elevation is a problem for me, unfortunately, so I try to stay at 4,000' or lower. Thanks for sharing. It just makes my day. ❤☮️

[@JoHarmon-hg7wz]

Gorgeous spot❤

[@SusanSpangler-i4f]

Nice spot love the moon shot Frame worthy

[@joanniejuergens8991]

That moon was gorgeous. fantastic sunrises and sunsets

[@hokiewiley2510]

Your videos of New Mexico have been incredible......you do a fantastic job of nicely showing this beautiful state! Your kindness of cleaning up after other disrespectful people is wonderful, you always leave your site nicer than you found it very very nice, your so thoughtful!!

[@marianfrances4959]

Beautiful and awesome as ever! 🌙 Tip: move the slow cooker outdoors when it's hot out. I know mine throws a fair amount of heat. Love you guys 👍😎🇨🇦🐾

[@jstep4146]

Slow cookin is the best!

[@AdventureVanMan]

Especially when it's hot!😎

[@rodpointer2258]

Thanks, Bro Very Cool Place At Elephant Butte! 😃✌

[@openyoureyes3969]

We stayed at Elephant Butte in early March. We parked on the beach looking towards the boat launch. It was beautiful a bit chilly and windy... not many people at the time. To bad they are getting rid of the annual park pass.

[@Onelesstraveledby]

Serene lake! Thank you for sharing!
