Van Problems, Shakshuka, MacKerricher State Park

[@UncleSam19730]

Ps. Your flag is not offensive. Everyone has their own flavor in life. That’s what makes us all unique in this world. May God continue to bless you in your travels.

[@mrvanlegend]

Noooo don't get rid of the sasquatch flag!!! that's one of my favorite things that you have in your van!!!

[@kayspence2788]

Because of you, all the men I’m my life are getting two bottles of Yellow Bird for Christmas. I ordered directly from the company.

[@StaticCamperVan]

I hope you get yourself some too

[@scubaval08]

I have it on my November 1 grocery list, for my daughter. But I’ll try it too.

[@Tittles1959]

Shakshouka is a dish of eggs poached in a sauce of tomatoes, olive oil, peppers, onion and garlic. It’s spiced with cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper. The name comes from the Tunisian word for shaken up. Popular throughout North Africa and Middle East. It’s standard breakfast and lunch in Libya, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt. Thanks Scott. I learned a new dish.

[@joanneburford6364]

Yes Scott always listen to the experts, tyre tread is vital and a safety element that should never be overlooked.

[@standunitedorfall1863]

Yes, especially on the front tires. Because a blowout could make you lose control in a very bad way.

[@GermanicDottir]

The flag is not offensive, in my opinion. What a beautiful park. It's the perfect place to sit with a good cup of coffee, look out over the ocean, and listen to the water splashing against the rocks. Thanks for taking us along.

[@noreenn6976]

Beautiful view at the park, thanks for taking us along.

[@Toltecgrl]

You found such a nice spot!!! And your food looks fantastic! That was a perfect day!! ☀️ 🌲 🌳 ☁️

[@KarenB212]

Thanks once again for the beautiful video of the ocean. Just stunning and so peaceful looking. Oh, and I'm not offended at all by the sticker 😊

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks Karen

[@thomasmacias5032]

Another great video Scott the egg 🥚 dish looked yummy 😋 love big foot also loved the new park you took us to 🙏🇺🇸☕️☕️

[@StaticCamperVan]

Have a great evening Thomas

[@Chrissy-Stormgal]

This is awesome! My favorite Static Scott with a new video!!! 😻😻😻😻😻

[@cotter9751]

Thanks for the update, Scott! I love that flag! I'd be interested to see what youre working on. *** That's the fun part of Shakshuka - how customizable it is!

[@lillian2720]

You made me laugh more than any of your other videos, you were so funny!

[@susanstewart4184]

Hi Scott❤

[@StaticCamperVan]

Hello

[@EvolvingDaily65]

Good Morning! Watched this while drinking my Fogline Coffee. Getting up for work. My favorite Van Life Channel another great video- thank you

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks! And good to hear you are drinking Fogline

[@64MAGA24]

I’m so sick of people being “offended”. Do what you like, like what you do and don’t worry about what others think.

[@pavelusa3423]

Here here..exactly my sentiments

[@plutoplatters]

I'm offended by you saying you're sick of people saying their offended !!

[@SheTookTheLongWayHome]

I enjoy the Fort Bragg and Mendicino area so much. I adore MacKerricher SP, one of my all-time favs! That coastline and the boardwalk never get old.

[@TomRuhrpott]

Thanks for the Idea with Shakshuka. Never heard from it before. I really appreciate your videos. Wish you all the best from Germany 🇩🇪. God bless you.😊

[@amalmac9943]

Bye Scott……. You areWelcome👍🏽🥰

[@RVTIRED]

I've lived in Fort Bragg for over 20 years. You haven't even scratched the surface when it comes to local beaches! I've just sold my house and I'm looking to buy a van of my own. Perhaps we'll meet out on the road someday. FYI: The Purity Market (Franklin & Alder) has much better prices on produce than Safeway, usually about half the price.

[@ilene9349]

Scott, great video, only listen to yourself, and there you have it, my two cents. Enjoy that coffee ☕ ❤

[@amalmac9943]

I purchased myself some Yellow Bird because of you and I like it👍🏽😁

[@StaticCamperVan]

Hooray!

[@amalmac9943]

Beautiful view

[@vantravelssunshine390]

OMG my ground beef seasoned with salt pepper dried minced onion Italian seasoning garlic paste yellow bell pepper 3 slices of a good sharp cheddar sour cream rolled up burrito was delicious but adding YELLOW BIRD Jalapeño took it to the next level. THX Scott. Now a fan of yellow bird, for my van travels. This senior citizen. Yeah !!!

[@StaticCamperVan]

Great to hear it!

[@catcafe4454]

How hot is it on a scale of 1-10?

[@vantravelssunshine390]

To be honest I didn’t outright taste it. I’m not jalapeño fan. I use good amount of it and I did not taste the heat but the flavor was great. I suggest try the sample size bottle that is what I did. Hope this helps.

[@Lonewolfwilly67]

Thanks for sharing, I really appreciate it! It's always a pleasure to watch😊

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks dude

[@katc7765]

Nice video Scott. You inspired me to try light roast beans and I have found that I love them for making iced coffees. I still prefer dark roast for making lattes though, because the stronger flavor of dark roast holds up to the frothed milk better than the lighter roast.

[@shantra9870]

My husband and I got married at Mackerricher. Such a special place!

[@StaticCamperVan]

That’s so nice. What a great place to get married

[@mitzilickliter3879]

Love the sound of those waves!

[@Colette2031]

I'm definitely going to try making the shakshouka recipe!! 😋

[@justgivemethetruth]

Hahaha, I'm a big parsley fan. Parsely has huge nutritional value. One of my favorite things to cook, which is pretty boring to people I guess, is, I cook spaghetti, and then take a small can of premium Tuna fish and shred it into the spaghetti and put chopped parsely over it. Simple, easy and tasty in my opinion. I like parsley a lot better than Kale. It's great for you.

[@onrycodger]

I like cheese and I cannot lie!😁🧀

[@SheTookTheLongWayHome]

That's my favorite way to do things in a new area, too: explore first, then research a little more later those things that pique my interest. I also love to chat up locals as I wander around and have gotten many a good inside tip on what to see/do/eat in a new-to-me place.

[@barbarascott4566]

I just got some of that yellow bird.And I really do like it

[@StaticCamperVan]

Excellent

[@amalmac9943]

I really love the view

[@suellenelm3087]

Watch out for otters in the lake. Welcome back

[@lillian2720]

I got your coffee pot and absolutely love it for pour overs!!

[@robingoff322]

Gorgeous, just gorgeous! I have that place saved to places to check out and spend time at. I love so much of the OR and CA coasts! Thanks Scott…..you do what is right for and by you! I don’t find your magnet or anything else that you have offensive.

[@lamb2lion4]

Yay ! your back

[@Lisa-16]

We stopped at that park on our way home from camping in Mendocino. It IS lovely. We didn't spend much time though as it was cold, overcast and windy and we had to get home. I'd like to go back. Btw, I have never heard of that flag to my knowledge. It's not offensive to me. People are entitled to their opinions. That's one of the good things about freedom of speech and living in a free country.

[@EvolvingDaily65]

The flag is great! We need to think with open minds!

[@DonnasRoadTrips]

Beautiful coast line, miss the sound of the ocean.

[@justgivemethetruth]

Wikipedia: Marinara is tomato sauce, but it's a thinner, simplier sauce that cooks very quickly: It only needs to simmer for about an hour. The sauce gets its characteristic flavor by the addition of garlic, crushed red pepper flakes and herbs like basil and oregano.May 3, 2024

[@grannypeacock1218]

One thing I love about MacKerricher is it is so dog friendly. You can walk your dog from your campsite right down onto the beach, on leash of course, and all the way up to that overlook.

[@vantravelingwithlaydeemae5167]

Yes I’ve been there it’s beautiful ❤I cried when I had to leave 😅

[@angelachristle2116]

💜 wow… You just keep getting these amazing captures of the amazing views that you get to be surrounded by! This is absolutely beautiful… Again… And I must say that that lunch you made actually looked really good and prompted me because I myself had some leftover pasta sauce that I have to eat like in the next day or has to go out and I don’t wanna throw it away and that looks like an interesting dish to try so I’m gonna give it a try tomorrow. Another great video! Thank you so much! Take care

[@Dee-s6s]

I'm offended if you're offended. I guess that makes us even. Go fot it Scott!

[@jeffersonspace]

Thanks for the visit to MacKerricher State Park. Glad your engine idle has smoothed out. Too bad about the it randomly misfiring.

[@dianakamalamars8397]

I think it is fun and satisfying to have disparate ingredients and come up with something good to eat. This is such a beautiful spot and the sound of the ocean was amazing -- for a second I swear I got a whiff of the ocean. Yes! the ritual, tools and process of making the coffee is all a fun part of the experience. I just got a wooden chopstick for stirring and a wood scoop for measuring to go along with my new Aeropress.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Hope you’re enjoying your new Aeropress. It’s always fun to get some new gear.

[@Texasoma]

That’s Sasquatch flag is not offensive… seriously……THAT IS THE LEAST OF OUR WORRIES….

[@marymedal8665]

Hey, Scott! Beautiful places.

[@sharonoldham4374]

Nice view of the ocean from the park. At least your van repair did do some improvement. Hope you have a good week.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks, you too!

[@catcafe4454]

I'm not offended by the magnet but I don't offend easily. Take care.

[@aunchaleeloscalzo7195]

I’ve made shashuska for brunch on Sunday most of the time. It’s my favorite recipe to go to. With sourdough toast it’s delicious. The view is beautiful thank you for sharing !!!❤

[@JR-playlists]

Please don't get too frustrated with people trying to help you, after all you don't have to follow our advice. The way you pan across beautiful vistas is so steady and slow, gives a person time to soak in the beauty. Thank you.

[@SusanKing-sj9nu]

The sticker is a keeper

[@kimprocarione5473]

Beautiful place! I always enjoyed Russian Gulch also. There is a campground there also,but I don't remember if it's private, county,or state. It's a state park. Google, duh! 😂

[@millie8399]

What a lovely state park. It seems to have a nice mix of beach and trees.Thank you for taking us along while you explore!

[@catcafe4454]

I love the beach and ocean ❤

[@plantstho6599]

People will get offended over anything. You're fine here.

[@alaskakv]

Glad to see you finally made it out to mackerricher. Such a beautiful place . We go all the time and have never paid to park . There is also a black oak coffee roasters in Ukiah ( mendocino county). And if I’m outside at the right time of day I can smell it roasting .mmm ☕️.Enjoy.

[@mjarboleda789]

Finally, you made it to one of my favorite places in Northern CA. I must try the recipe since I’m guilty of tossing 1/2 a jar for decades. 😊 Not offended by art - go for it.

[@GenXvanlife69]

🔧Howdy Static. Possibility, your new misfire could be due to a fouled spark plug. If the coil you replaced was faulty and not sending current, it could have caused the spark plug to foul out. 🤙😎✌️ #vanlife #nomad

[@StaticCamperVan]

No issues with spark plugs. I have videos on that.

[@GenXvanlife69]

@@StaticCamperVan Were the plugs changed before or after the coils?

[@auntifranny]

Hello, Scott, I have a 2001 Toyota Echo, that was having REALLY rough idling/engine shaking, poor performance, and my OBD2 code reader showed a P0302 code (cylinder 2 misfire). Thanks to KZbin university, I was able to DIY change out both ignition coils AND spark plugs (spark plugs looked pretty bad - dry carbon deposit), and now the Echo is back to running GREAT again! That being said, maybe check the spark plugs as well??? Good luck in your troubleshooting efforts, and thanks for sharing another fabulous video of the State Park! Cheers, Francisca aka auntifranny

[@davemenard5089]

Buttons, knobs and switches. Yes, and dials. Sliders too. Also prefer steering wheels.

Hi Scott, so pretty there. Great haircut!

Just found you. Some towns in common. I was born in santarosa, Grew up going to this coast and others,my mother had my siblings in Humboldt county. I still have some family there.I love places with history as well.I grew up in cloverdale. Now in lakecounty, ca. Stay safe,happy,warm this winter. I love cool weather too.

[@goddess7713]

Oh,We have the same salt lamp!

[@pavelusa3423]

Watch out a gull doesn't steal jor food while eating out there..lol.thanx my man, gr8 video. From prague

[@Tom-yy9xj]

I like the Sasquatch flag, up here in Sasquatch country near the Canadian border in the foothills of the Cascades on the Cascade river it feels like a separate country sometimes, even have a yellow bird for the state bird

[@Driverorh]

I was just looking st that sticker, and then you got it out ,I'm weird too man 😂

[@lolobotello1816]

Nice video and keep the flag❤

[@csimon1951]

I’d like to try those eggs on top of toasted sour dough!

[@StaticCamperVan]

That sounds good

[@pascalle-bass]

Your day was the epitomy of slow living. Wonderful. If you believe in the flag, and it's not breaking any laws, it's your right. I think it would be important to ask yourself if you "want" to display it. But so kind to think of us Scott. It doesn't seem to be about hating the US or a group of people and also seems to be appealing to the proper legal channels without violence currently so right now...not offended. Hope that helps. Lol

[@JW-mz1fp]

it's not offensive ai all have a good day.

[@justdawndb]

Hi Scott, thx so much for "hanging out" and capturing these amazing sights for us! The coffee smelled fabulous! 🤩 I wasn't offended by the image, i didn't have a clue to its significance - it puts off a govt/ friendly vibe - wouldn't wear it. Ha The way you live feels very natural to me, did it feel natural albeit inconvenient to you from the start, aside from the awful weather extremes you had to go through.... looks like you are really enjoying fall, my favorite time of year. Id love to see what you're working on. Wishing you great sleep and improved vehicular function! 💞 Thanks again!

[@StaticCamperVan]

On the contrary, the first two weeks of vanlife were enough to show me how much more comfortable this life is. But yes, I prefer the cooler temperatures.

[@justdawndb]

@@StaticCamperVan thanks for answering me, I do long to be out there myself. I hope you have a really great week!

[@sicchuckie]

I’m so bored I’m watching your reruns! Lol

[@majipoorsbeard]

your lunch! that dish has been passed down generation to generation in my family. Ive always used fresh cubed tomatoes. Never though of spaghetti sauce. Have to try it.

[@suellenelm3087]

Fort Bragg food bank has a free farm stand and they have lots of organic produce from botanical gardens and farmers

[@LostCoastLiving]

Also , if you get rid of everything that is offensive to everyone , you wouldn't have anything 😢

[@StaticCamperVan]

I wouldn’t have an Yellowbird

[@sharonoldham4374]

[@Toltecgrl]

I don’t find your magnet offensive. I think it’s a neat idea. 💡

I'm not offended by a flag. Do you and if someone is offended that's their problem.

[@lh5047]

Hi Scott .. really enjoy all your videos. About Shashuka (one of my fav breakfast dishes!) ... check the following Quote: Shakshuka is a simple dish made of gently poached eggs in a delicious chunky tomato and bell pepper sauce. Said to have originated in Tunisia, this breakfast recipe is popular in many parts of North Africa and the Middle East. It is so satisfying, you can serve it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Unquote

[@hotheadedjoelhaha]

Shakshuka, thanks for a great idea! Gonna try that, maybe with a piece of garlic toast for dipping.

[@karenmoore5278]

In the early 60's while being a teen my family and I would rent a small tear drop trailer and park on the beach at 10 Mile Beach which is part of MacKerricher State Park and after a few years my parents bought a home just up the hill and on the other side of the road from the beach. I loved being able to visit the beach all of the time. We spent many years in that home on vacations and I still love Fort Bragg and that beach.

[@StaticCamperVan]

So cool

[@amalmac9943]

That’s a beautiful view to the right of you

[@dominiquebt]

That Shakshuka seems pretty similar to Mexican drowned eggs and looks delish😋

Hey Scott! Hope you are doing well my friend! You are right. $8 to park. That's not cheap.

[@kimprocarione5473]

Now I want a cup of coffee. 😊 I'm not offended. I was all for the state of Jefferson, though, so I may be too offensive to trust my opinion 🤔

Keep the sticker. It's awesome

Hello Scott, It’s still warm and sunny in Eureka, btw. I hope you get to enjoy some Abalone if you continue to stay in Fort Bragg. Abalone is so delicious and Fort Bragg is where you can find it.

[@RollingTortugaPaquita]

Not offensive ❤

[@glennk.7348]

Ha! The bag actually says “little” potatoes!

[@AirVac99]

There is no correct way to make shakshoka. I like the way you make it so simple, this is how I am going to make it from now on. Of course, with Yellow bird ❤.

[@SheTookTheLongWayHome]

I don't know what all that Cascadia stuff is about (I'll have to Google), but Sasquatch is my dude! Update: I just googled and found the Wikipedia page on the Cascadia (aka Doug) Flag. From the original designer: "Unlike many flags, this is not a flag of blood, nor of the glory of a nation, but a love of the bioregion; our ecological family and its natural boundaries; the place in which we live and love." Not sure how anyone could be offended by this flag given the description, and I have to say I much prefer your Sasquatch version

[@boohooproductions-j9i]

I got some of that same pasta sauce

[@justgivemethetruth]

There are quite a few Fort Braggs ... from Wikipedia Fort Bragg is the former name of Fort Liberty, North Carolina. Fort Bragg may also refer to: Fort Bragg, California, a city Fort Bragg fever, a bacterial zoonotic disease There is or was a Fort Bragg in Haiti too.
