absolutely stunningly beautiful out here I'm at the Salt Creek Campground also
connects part with Shasta Lake Lake Shasta here in California I'll put a map
up here to give you an idea for where I'm at and relative to Californian and
maybe the rest of the country and stuff like that right I have been in that
water three times since I've been here and I don't know how it is that's the
warmest body of water I've ever been in in any place in the entire country in
six years on YouTube that water is physically warm like it's heated what
oh that LMS also mentioned it's a hundred and three degrees today here in
California at 3,500 feet yeah and I've been here before I was here exactly a
year and a half ago eighteen months ago I brought Yoda to this very spot and it
snowed on us and they closed down the Siskiyou pass I couldn't get back home I
was stranded here in the snow and now a hundred and three degrees heat wave
they're calling it an excessive heat heat way it's a heat wave for this area
this time of year it doesn't usually stay this hot this late
so it is a little unusual I'm glad I'm here I'm glad I can dunk in that water
whenever I want get on the inner tube I do have to run the air conditioner for
Jack's because I can't have an uncomfortable Kitty in there can't do
that and I've had this little spot all to myself
this is just gorgeous area of California it's $11 a night to stay here April 15th
to September 15th after September 15th it's free to stay
here the reason they do that is because I guess they provide a trash can and a
port-a-potty on season up there so you're paying for that
it's just flippin gorgeous and I also you may have noticed or maybe you didn't
notice but this bridge is kind of famous I'm 99% sure this is the same shot from
the intro of the Netflix show murder Mountain
here which is filmed here in California there are a lot that are shaped exactly
alike I guess but just the terrain and the way it all curves and everything I'm
pretty sure this is exactly where that intro was film that's a really good
mini-series on netflix by the way it's a pretty good little miniseries I enjoyed
it they are saying it's gonna stay this warm for a couple more days so it may
stay out here a couple days not quite sure I have the whole place to myself so
maybe that's the that's the part I really like it's just it's peaceful and
it's pretty for California this is pretty nice for California see this
could be us Jax but you don't like motorcycles or wind or engines or water
like you'd never go for this huh look you could be king up here yeah see let
me jeez ride like this and that'd be fun let's get a little seat belt okay I'll
start it up kay ready he really doesn't like it the bicycle yeah
motorcycle not so much and the water no definitely no water but the water no
doesn't know all right man so what do you like tables treats food catnaps
everything you're a man all right man yeah right be a wrong either cause that
water is so warm oh man go deeper here oh you got a be good have you guys ever
seen this tattoo don't have I've ever been shirtless before yeah I've got
three Simpsons tattoos total three Simpsons tattoos this was like Jesus 13
14 years ago actually I still love the Simpsons I stopped getting Simpsons
tattoos I got my beavis and butthead on my back Cavs but now I kind of gave up
putting Simpsons ink on me oh man now water
whoa Shasta Lake yeah oh oh hell sucked in my pocket but it was my phone it's a
cult well it's a it's a warm beer now cheers guys oh it's delicious you
wouldn't like it you know what I think I'm most excited about for the end of
2019 though really is the idea of chasing the good weather so that I can
continue this summer with good weather solar you know for the RV I need it you
know to be able to power everything in the RV and really just I mean here in
California it is much much much hotter by 30 degrees than it was all summer in
Washington State and now that all the kids are going back to school
everything's just kind of wide open you know it's pretty awesome
it's pretty awesome I don't mean to brag in a way that makes you feel
uncomfortable or anything because I'm still gonna share with you just pretend
like you're right here with me right right we're just sitting here in the
river in the lake having a beer together
there are a couple really good dispersed campsites here at Salt Creek this one's
really good there there was a clearance issue that's why I couldn't get over
this little hump that little dip right there I wouldn't have made it but some
other higher vehicles may make it and then once you get out here you have your
own little private island jetty out to the water over here and there's my RV
across the way over there but I will certainly miss this place and I'm gonna
put something over here those are GPS coordinates guys so you can grab those
write them down and pause it or they'll be in the video description also you can
copy and paste that put it into your navigation a choice like Google Maps or
ways or whatever and you can come here and experience this place as well
because I want to share it with you it's an approved campground don't abuse the
rules and everything and oh wow there's people showing up behind me I
was gonna say this place is really quiet and I've had it to myself the entire
time and as I'm getting ready to leave some people are coming out to use the
boat out here so they've got a bunch of place if you can take your boat and whiz
around here but there is a no-wake zone here in front of Salt Creek Campground
so it was um I really really like this place and I'm running the generator over
there for air conditioning and to recharge the batteries in this situation
right now I got a fire it up twice I can run the air conditioner off solar for
five hours to start the day and then I got to run the generator for about two
or three hours to replenish the batteries and then we'll finish the
night with again going off a solar with with the AC and then I got a top them
off before I go to bed that's the case right now in the main case the main
reason why that is is because I just don't have enough amp hours of storage I
have 300 amp hours of lithium storage and twelve hundred and eighty watts and
I find myself needing some more amp hours and that'll be here your number
one hint to what some of my plans here are very very soon gonna gonna have to
change that just gonna have to you I don't like having to run that
generator it's obnoxious you know it's funny also I was not gonna film out here
this is gonna be my two-day little vacation with no camera and I just
cannot help but I'm such a creative person I don't just want to sit around
it's like I'm always looking for a way to capture something and sitting around
here and enjoying the water I just saw a chance to share it with you anyway so I
did now I gotta edit it all or that means I got to work take care guys
Jackson I'll see you in a few days back on the road in California
bye guys okay why is it just warm right here where I'm at that ain't right that
ain't right you know they put a chemical in the pool that turns your in blue no
no no it's an old wives tale sweetie no Clive
