On The Moonstone

I could listen to this guy ALL day! Such a soothing voice 😊

[@Curt100]

Dude, you've outdone yourself. This video is extremely cool. I've been watching your channel for about a year, and I always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work, Scott!

[@StaticCamperVan]

Hey Thanks Curt

[@tianikane3312]

Don't worry about the tripods Scott. We are here for you and your life discussions, cooking etc. Luv ya.

[@seanh4841]

Now what am I gonna do tomorrow? Probably watch it again lol

Haha

[@DeeFay-fl1hs]

And again……

[@leonaweltzer4023]

Yes, back to Seattle, since you don’t mind the rain.

[@serafimpereira9483]

loved the foggy beach scenery. I could sit there for hours on the beach sipping coffee and watching the waves

[@njcdailo8934]

Never seen your content. But no surprise since I follow lots of camping and overland people. The point is; you sound like a professional cooking show. The way you explain, your tone etc. noice. 👍

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thank you

[@sunsensational]

There’s something warm and cozy about your videos. And very calm and soothing voice.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thank you

[@Shantelle6253]

Thank you for acknowledging that feeling of hunger that persists beyond quick and easy sandwiches and eggs. I gave in and ordered takeout today because I simply couldn't get that satiated feeling lately.

[@faithrada]

The body knows what it needs. Always wise to listen to it. 👍

[@seanh4841]

That looks really nice, I must admit I like some cool weather

[@robingoff322]

I’d never heard of Moonstone Beach. It’s absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for taking us there. I love the fog……your shirt looks great by the way. The meat looked delicious as well.

[@brawndothethirstmutilator9848]

Right around the rocks next to Moonstone is Luffenholtz Beach which is the only square shaped beach I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s best at low tide. The name the Wiyot people gave it is Du’ Pelou’l, which means “where they get flint”. As you’d guess the rocks and cliffs contain flint. When I was there a couple of weeks ago a group of bohemian hippies were juggling, twirling sticks, and one guy was playing a pan flute. Got to love Humboldt.

[@darbybell8684]

I think the grey flannel is very flattering, I like it😊

[@carolbrashar5713]

Roast looks so good! My stove died couple years back, bought a hot plate with covered burner for cooking, yes queen of procrastination, but also so used to it now and no issues, I do quite well with one burner. So I enjoy getting new ideas watching how you cook with one burner.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Sometimes keeping it simple is better. Thanks Carol

[@lorid2092]

Yep, grassfed local beef is where it's at! So tasty and good for you😊

[@tamararenee7317]

Thank you so much for sharing your day with us! I really felt the calm and peacefulness, and boy oh boy did that first bite of the taco taste delicious!! Thank you!!

[@juliehoot3916]

Beautiful beach and amazing weather. Thank you for sharing.

[@Bernimv]

It's the little things not thought of and the simple views not expected that just makes it all a completeness to the amazing beauty of natures constant motion through change. The secrets that lie hidden awaiting to be explored that is pure joy on life's Naturesque.

[@juliebelize4285]

The surfers made the sun come out....they have sun juju. Thanks for the beautiful share and yum looking recipe.

[@johndevries76983]

Thx Scott for the vlog and your time ✌️👍👍👍

[@leliladurnford382]

Time to come back to Seattle. The weather has been nice, overcast, cool & rain in a few days. You need more of that Seattle coffee

[@StaticCamperVan]

Honestly, if my van could do the trip, I would. Oh well it’s nice down here too

[@TJ-id6ee]

My favorite time of year here!

[@laurajphillips]

Your recipe looks great I’m going to try it! Thank You!❤️

[@Mightyluna]

Holy moly, those tacos looked delicious, and that crunch! Now I have a craving for chuck roast tacos. 😋That shot in the video when you said, "I don't know why it's called Moonstone" was amazing. As was the sea cave. Thank you Scott! I hope you have a fabulous week. PS. I like the new shirt on you. 🙂

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks Luna

[@dancingrl918]

You live such a meticulously mindful life with your every moment Thanks for the inspiration 🙏

Hi Scott. How are you doing today? You look like you’re tired. Get some rest and take care of yourself. My husband and I love your videos.

[@Kennyc.830]

What an absolutely beautiful beach! I can't thank you enough for sharing that

[@StaticCamperVan]

You’re welcome Kenny

[@turtlegram31656]

Hi Scott, those caves are awesome. They don't go to much deeper and yes there are a couple more caves but you have to go further north up the beach during low tide.🐢🐩🐶🐕🌺✨🌈🌊🌻🐳🌈

[@StaticCamperVan]

Cool thanks!

[@lamb2lion4]

hi Scott found your channel and enjoy your travel adventures and sharing your minalimist way of living you look nice in your shirt and dinner looks delish look forward to your videos

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks

[@dianakamalamars8397]

I just adore the foggy, shades-of-grey seascape, and Moonstone Beach is the perfect name for it. Glad you still have the electric kettle, so you didn't have to wait 2.5 hours for a cup! And those caves were very cool.

[@StaticCamperVan]

I had to get my fix

[@danjones3176]

Just down the street from where I live. If you haven't walked the Trinidad head I highly recommend it.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks. I put up a video of Trinidad a few weeks back. Such a gem.

[@thizizliz]

Oooh, Scott! That meat made me want to do that with a pork roast. That would be great for quick meals. Thanks for the idea. And you buy local coffee, just don't always get it drunk up before it's time to ,move. I think all the vendors still appreciate not only the business but the shout outs too.

[@erikburman530]

Wonderful place anytime!

[@3generations393]

I agree, love this coast. It will be my first winter here & I hope to tye the knot & become an Oregonian 🎉 I loved the walk on the beach & the cave. You always find the coolest places, thanks Scott ❣️

Great video Scott- interesting history the little river was formerly the most polluted river in California (cattle run off was a culprit)

[@justdawndb]

In the beginning I was thinking how much i love the simplicity of your life...and then came the explanation of solar power, wattage, usage charge time, etc...haha...excellent explanation I'm going to send it to my brother as he's considering solar for his travel truck, so thank you for that! The tree trunk was so cool, wondering if it is almost petrified! So glad there were few people so you could share this with all of us. You do a great job of filming & editing..and cooking 😅 This brightened my day tremendously if only for a bit. I think that's your aim and I really appreciate it! The silent threat of a tired vehicle is a time of quiet desperation....for me... You are one tough cookie! Thank you! Wishing you peace all the time.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks Dawn. Very nice to read your comments.

[@SarahTree]

Awesome video! Totally love the roast and the cave! Also great examples of solar usage. Beginning vanners need to hear that. Keep up the good work!😊

Hi Scott, Enjoyed your narriative . Beautiful beach walk too.

Thanks Jeanie. Hope you’re feeling better

[@GrantGoodeaux]

Take the meat off of the stove for 5 minutes to make your coffee. It’s much more efficient than using 4 hours of your battery bank.

THANKS MUCH for sharing your day, cooking and of course Coffee : ) Love the simplicity of your solar and power setup, and I recently upgraded to a bigger Oupes, so plan on using it in my MiniVan, along with a folding solar panel when not charging from cigarette plug.

What a gorgeous beach day. Just the weather for stewing beef and a nap, IMO. Those tacos looked absolutely amazing, but I've gotta tell you beef cooked in red wine a la Julia Child ranks at or near the top of my list of favorite foods. And you talking about the visible tripod (nevermind it!) only made me think about what great video work you do. Today's installment was sublime:)

[@StaticCamperVan]

Yes, I will most likely use some red wine in the future. It is my favorite for cooking beef. Thanks for the compliment. It’s easy to make videos in Humboldt. It’s so beautiful everywhere here.
