You are so calm wish more people had that demeanor. lol God bless you scott.

Thanks Ann

[@jeanieirwin4747]

Scott, Your a good problem solver. Your skill sets for sorting things out and facing challenges are remarkable. Don't stress over a bill or two. Just pay a little bit on each one until you catch up. If you get a win fall pay everything off. Reduce fuel consumption by finding an interim place to stay where fuel is least expensive. Keep living your best life.

Scott- I really do appreciate how you take us through your day(s) and your decision making. Every day cannot be a ‘great day’. That’s the same as us. Thank you for your willingness to share your less-than-great days too. I understand your frugalness and your limited space. It will be interesting to see whether or not your hot water pot will be ‘a keeper’. -Carl

Thanks Al. Wish I could have stayed longer. But I gave it as much time as I could. Hope to see you down the road.

[@alchristensen8121]

@@StaticCamperVan - I assume you were stealth camping somewhere there?

[@StaticCamperVan]

Stealth? No. I haven’t figured out what that is. I was mostly parked somewhere around the city. I did some dispersed camping outside the city. But I was feeling so poorly that I wanted to stay in town near services.

[@scottks5]

I raise my own chickens and eat four eggs a day. Best protein and vitamin source there is! You've got me hooked on Yellowbird. I like the habanero version.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Yellowbird and eggs are a great combo!

Scott, I learn so much from your postings. Thank you. I truly id not know about the commercials. Will watch them from now on. Also interested in your comments about soy free eggs. Very interesting. Seems like it’s time to go back to San Diego area. Safe travels!

Elevation sickness is no joke. Had it in Nrderland, CO. A little health food store up there had some tablets that really helped me. Don't recall what they were called. Going to s lower elevation will help. Sorry you aren't feeling well.

[@aday1637]

I lived in Nederland for years and used to see those who came up to us who would just be sick with nausea and what seemed like hyperventilation behavior. We found that the best thing was to exercise. A brief hike in the mountains, chopping wood etc would help alleviate the symptoms much more quickly. Laying around only made it worse. Its amazing how well developed the lungs are on those that live in the high country.

[@pilarsuarez-ahmed4581]

I watch the adds because it helps. I got it from another KZbinr I follow as well. And most recently from one of your follower

[@captain7290]

I hope you find a really nice place to stay for a spell. You might like the Mt.Backer hey. Going east from Bellingham. The air there is the most beautiful thing you'll ever smell. I wish you all good things.

[@alexhuxley3355]

Hey - I'm really enjoying your videos and watching back through your old videos. You clearly put a lot of effort into them and want to share/help others with your experience. I hope things get better for you and your coffee always tastes great!

Will mention you in my prayers today. Little prayer to remember. Just few words for you to say. JUSUS I TRUST IN YOU.✝️.

Nice to see you back on youtube, your dedicated van fan. I had the 2012 Ram Cargo van I converted several years ago, then got really sick and had to retire from traveling, although My intention is to get back on the road again. Thanks again for sharing your travels.

I had trouble in Tierjas NM a couple months ago. I was ok in Alb. but another thousand feet did it to me. On Eggs: An egg farmer told me that you don't refrigerate eggs until you wash them Once they are cleaned up they have to be stored cold.

[@sjayne27]

I like that you’re a rebel (saying honest things, even though you know YT doesn’t like it)…it shows that you have integrity. I also like how you show yourself making food and then reviewing what you’ve cooked. And now I’m craving eggs! I never make eggs at home, for some reason, but now I think I will buy some eggs the next time I go shopping.

I didn't know Flastaff was that high, about 7000 ft. It's still nice an cool up in the northern states, 50s and 60s. The occasional 70s.

[@StaticCamperVan]

When I was told Flagstaff was higher than Denver, I didn’t quite believe it at first.

[@cotter9751]

Always good to see your updates. Sorry to hear that the elevation just got you down. Thanks.

[@deborahelliott3826]

It takes weeks to acclimate to altitude. The air is cleaned by rain. No rain no clean.

[@sheilabartlett6044]

Sorry you were I’ll. My co-worker years ago had one of those, she used it in motels when she went away, then at work, before the ease of microwaves. I hope it works well for you. Good reality video. Stay safe on the roads.

[@geogypsytraveler]

Hope you found a balance. Northern AZ is either high or hot. Can take two weeks to adjust to major change in elevation. So much forest north of Flagstaff. Also seasonal jobs in and adjacent to Grand Canyon NP. Good luck.

Prayers for you to get well soon.

[@susanevans1294]

That’s one of my favorite towns. It was good to see how you felt better after eating. Good luck with soy free eggs. I also avoid soy. I look forward to finding out where you landed after Flagstaff. I’m keen to hear more reviews about the electric kettle because I’ve been looking for one. Yours is also very pretty in those colors with gold tones. I’ll be hitting the road in September with a nicer looking car as my Toyota is in the body shop getting a face lift, plus during this grounded time I’m painting commissions and stashing away the money for my wanderings. Stay Safe and keep up the videos, it’s always good to see you and hear your thoughts about things. ❤️✅

[@craigbrowning9448]

I have a used Presto electric tea kettle. I drilled a couple holes so I had zip tied through a couple holes I drilled in the handle to the underside of a shelf where it constantly hangs and I can just tip it forward to pour water out of it and it's fixing the show for the carabiner in case I had to move it for some reason.

[@angelachristle2116]

I’m not paying admission… To go up there… Lol 💜😁 I love the smell of a fresh cut grass. I’ll take that any day… Diesel… Not so much… Great video!

[@jamelcampbell4984]

Maybe later you could get a set of carving knives and whittle yourself some kitchen utensils, kuksa cups, little people and animals, chip carving things or relief carving pictures, and you could carve to make alittle mo ey too. I buy used books from amazon, so my library doesn't cost too much. KZbin helps with learning and understanding. Just an idea to help take your mind off things and you could take them with you most everywhere. Hope you soon get to feeling better. I started learning to make California rolls, I want to make your tortilla recipe but keep for getting. Hang in there.

[@ramblingypsybeauty]

Hi Scott, just came across your channel. Sorry you were not feeling well, hopefully you are better now. High altitude sickness can be very brutal. Wanted to let you know that while living in Colorado I discovered liquid oxygen. I purchased it at a health food store in Colorado Springs called Mountain Mommas. It helps with altitude sickness very well. In addition drink a lot of water as well like you did. I bet Amazon may have it for purchase for future visits in the higher country. Have safe travels.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks Dee. I’ll keep it in mind. I’m actually feeling back to normal and have been in higher elevation areas since this vlog. Hopefully my doctor has the issues figured out. If not I’ll look for some liquid oxygen.

I am drinking my spiced tea but exchanged my green tea with chamomile. I don't like chamomile normally, but I half China Black and chamomile is delicious with cinnamon, turmeric, ginger and cream. I will get my chamomile down, so doctored up. I live at 7000 feet, took months to acclimatize, but not hot!

Being in Australia I didn't understand your comments on not feeling good while in Flagstaff Arizona. So I looked up air quality in Flagstaff. I am now educated.....wow, seems a lot of people have problems with the air there. 👍🇦🇺

[@StaticCamperVan]

I’ve lived most of my life at sea level. So whenever I go to a high elevation, I struggle. The air is definitely thinner

[@lisachennault575]

Some people can’t be in high altitude. I get sick an end up in bed, I’m one of those people that can’t be in high altitude. You’ll feel better once you get back to lower altitudes

[@csimon1951]

Never had fried corn tortillas with eggs and I live in the Houston area! Looked really good and going to have to try it!!

[@StaticCamperVan]

Fried corn tortillas with eggs are So Good. It’s a great way to use up stale tortillas. Which is what I was doing.

[@priscillafuentes8663]

Yeah, we call them chilaquiles. I slice onions, and sometimes sprinkle parmesan cheese, on them when done. If I don't have any other type of cheese.

[@kellyb5980]

Glad that you’re getting out of the high elevations, can’t say you didn’t give yourself time to adjust but it wasn’t happening so I can see why you’d get a little cranky. You really have spent a pretty significant amount of time away from CA and with the gas prices I don’t blame you.

[@sandrahartje9974]

I lived at the Grand Canyon and the Flagstaff area for many years. I would call about the altitude we suggest drinking water before they even leave a lower altitude. If you have the time on your travels, stop at different altitudes to help your body adjust; Enjoy that area and continue drinking water. As you know altitude sickness is nothing to fool with.🌵😊🦋🌼🌻

[@StaticCamperVan]

I spent a month slowly working up to Flagstaff.

[@50spudman]

I’m glad that you mentioned that thing. I’ve always wondered about that. I’ve asked another KZbinr about it before, in the past, and I guess they played dumb about it because they just said that they didn’t know. I’ll be sure and watch them all for you. 👍✌️

[@StaticCamperVan]

Lots of KZbinrs don’t understand the subject. Thanks for your help. But please just watch as you normally would. I hope everyone will watch what interests them and skip what doesn’t.

Get well soon and good luck in finding u a nice place to chill for a bit and maybe find a lil bit of work. Many blessings and much love

Scott, water boils at lower temps at higher elevations,

[@StaticCamperVan]

Haha, I did realize that later.

[@kathyfann]

My husband that died couldn’t have energy or breathe well in high altitude turned out that his heart wasn’t doing very well and he did much better at sea level so we quit going into the high mountains and just went to see level and that made all the difference and he lived long time after that winter couldn’t get up in the high elevation toilet oxygen is lot thinner

[@jiffijoff9780]

Man, first of all: I hope you'er doing better in your new location - both regrading high elevation and heat. Second: I just love following you along in "a day of your life". As it is, commenting on whats happening, having your daily routines, reflecting on stuff and food and preparation and what not. This is wonderfully relaxing. Today I had a packed day (for a sunday) by picking up used tires for our Defender at a price I couldn't resists. But it was 220 miles overall and I noticed I've gotten kinda driving-lazy in the last two years of home office work (wouldn't want to call it "mobile work", since from the point of view of NOT driving its not really mobile but rather static... - a concept that might sound familiar to you :-)) All the best and I hope the unpleasant expenses will be sortet out soon. Btw, did you mention the type of work you do besides YT? Would be cool to get to know what stuff you have to deal with on the other side of the income-moon. (if thats fine for you of course). Thanks and take care!

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thanks. Yes, I’m feeling much more myself now that I’m not up in Flagstaff. 220 miles is LONG. Haha. I’m not accustomed to so much driving anymore either. Great that you found a deal on tires! I have only talked about the other work I do on Patreon and KZbin Member videos. I probably won’t discuss that info here publicly.

A lazy day. Let's see what Scott is up to! Flagstaff! I forgot about the information-packed breaks useful both for the viewer to take a coffee break and for the content creator to get some return for his efforts! And even on a lazy day, it's good to get up and accomplish something...maybe wash something to wear tomorrow 😂

[@jojojo3267]

👍😅 Haha! I'm loving the "Scott washes his pants and hangs them to dry in public".. episodes. He's such a rebel!🤓 If the coppers came around to investigate he would just dazzle them with his calm demeanor and yellow bird recipes then happily sign them up as Patreon supporters!😆 As far as the heat goes, that "Wim Hoff ice bath method for general good health could be the ticket. Setting up an inflatable tub with ice water in a park and going for a dip would draw a crowd !🤣 BTW I watched two full ads on this vid., happy to do my part for the channel. Keep on rocking in the" hot and arid world!"✌️I'll just have to suffice with my 10 K stroll around the breezy, sunny ,SEA wall up here in 49th parallel region! Cheers.
