hey everybody how you doing back to my roots here boondocking no hookups got
the solar panels tilted trying to gather some of this Florida Solar that's a
little lower in the winter time and doing pretty well it's a little later in
the afternoon now but we did reach 84 degrees here and I haven't made it quite
to the coast yet like I said well going back a lot of my subscribers lost their
mind when I said I had joined thousand trails and I was gonna possibly do some
resorts down in Florida like very strange look still gonna boondock
without anything no power no water no electricity no TV stations it's quiet
out here I parked this far away for most of these campers which are also hunters
a lot of people are hunting in this area gone in the daytime they party at night
but this is called three Lakes WMA which is a Wildlife Management Area a lot like
BLM back out west just called something different 14-day max free camping under
percent free but anyway I won't go on and on about all the resources I use you
know my life is changing every single month on the road I've been on YouTube
over five years now been full timing for over eight years in an RV living in an
RV and I'm constantly changing I'm improving the quality of life on a daily
basis essentially and I have a lot of tools to help me in Jack's it really
enjoy life on the road so don't be afraid to change guys on the channel I
know I share a lot of information on this channel and I make you guys go
through a lot of changes but like I said it's all for the good still me and it's
still Jax and we have a lot of excitement rolling into 2019 for where
this channels gonna lead and I appreciate you guys sticking around it's
what you to hear how quiet this place as though all these campers
you can't even hear anything like I said I think most of them are gone last night
was pretty loud here like after 10 p.m. this place was a party zone it's what
you get out of the free stuff but that's pretty nice yeah we chillin we're
chillin at the end of January Jax is gonna need his annual checkup do is make
sure as all his vaccines are up to date so he can travel anywhere don't know
where we'll make that appointment but when the time comes we'll figure that
out we need to find out how his weight management has been working doctor
wanted the high protein and the more frequent feedings so we do five feedings
with the smaller portions rather than two half cups so he eats more often but
less we've been tricking in the last year I haven't got him in for a midpoint
way or anything so I don't know if he still weighs 24 pounds or what we'll see
we'll make more changes if we need to but you're a pretty healthy guy you've
logged more cat miles than any cat I know yeah you like the chin scratches
okay he likes the chin scratches he does we like it out here huh
Florida's nice in the winter Oh birds yeah as a bird I know as a big bird
that's a big bird coulda took you away keep an eye on my boy gotta get inside
and make dinner I'm making dinner in the RB ok ok anything else and so ironically
the low overnight tonight is gonna be 72 degrees yeah it's gonna drop down as low
as 72 degrees so it's gonna be one of those nights where I'm perfectly happy
leaving all of the windows open and maybe even a fan running in the bed area
just to just to try to keep cool it's the it's the sacrifice Florida in the
winter as far as humidity and nightly temperatures daily highs in the 80s and
stuff but I'm still really super excited about it so not not deterred from the
weather and the humidity just yet as we are going to go much much farther south
in Florida yeah working on my favorite RV meal spaghetti dinner with meatballs
I don't really care for the cleanup part of it because the you know red sauce and
other things but oh we're really fogged up sorry about that
but it's worth it it's worth it whoo humidity Florida
give me paw star all right meatballs and garlic bread you know I like to make
three meals worth generally that way there's less cooking next time I can do
some microwave and just cook up some fresh noodles or something so cook a
little bit more that way it's easier laters that make sense oh man why did
you it real good oh man turkey meatballs and I got I love my
milk and yeah maybe not the wisest decision to cook so much oven and stove
food on a date on a night where it's still 81 degrees right now
I'm a little warm still but only got a few episodes left a better call Saul
they're up to season three on that place I'm on Episode six so that's how we do
that
you're warning guys don't know if we saw any actual star movement last night it
may have been just too cloudy but it was sure noisy here like I said after 10
p.m. you just kind of accept it it's a free
campground in the middle of nowhere um go jump in the shower here in a minute
I like boondocking it's really fun it's just totally different than being hooked
into power well one thing I want to say though is that in the wintertime you
know you're really relying on solar when you're boondocking ok so I have to wait
until the Sun hits my panels and then the day's end so quickly like the Sun
sets at like I think 450 here in this area so your days are shorter with solar
so you're relying on your battery longer does that make sense
your batteries so I mean even in the winter time when I've tilted the panels
and everything I still have to physically run the generator for a
couple hours every night while boondocking in the winter it's just I
don't have enough solar on the roof maybe one day I get more solar or
upgrade my batteries to make it work a little better but it works just fine I
don't mind another generator a little bit I like to do it at night like if the
Sun sets at 5 o'clock 5 p.m. and I'm gonna be in bed by 11:00 p.m. I like to
run it for like an hour or two right in the middle of that you know that play
gonna be watching TV there on the laptop or doing something that requires some
power straight off the batteries so there we go
and feeling refreshed now Sunshine's piqued him through a little bit and by
the way I'm just a little bit uneasy about Gators sometimes so when I came
out this morning you know just as the Sun was getting ready to come out
I jumped past the RV looked underneath to make sure there wasn't one and with
this tall grass there's just no way that I'm gonna let
Jax come out here and walk around out here even with me on a leash I just
don't trust this swampy lake area so that's why I'd rather have Jax in my
arms in a place where Gators are possible and I kind of just changed my
mind this afternoon I feel like two nights out here was good enough for me
so want to get back to the city for a little bit of civilization stuff needs
some milk a few other things so that's what we'll do I'll pack up put the
panel's back flat on the roof and we'll head out of y'all all right buddy let's
see if we can get out of here without running over any mails people like to
burn mattresses in these free campgrounds and pallets with nails
I always check within like 10 miles like just get on the main road and once we
get to a gas station I'll pull out check all my tires make sure there's no metal
debris from these free campsites I still highly recommend this one
if you can deal with like one bar service which for me was enough to run
netflix last night with my booster though nobody else gets any service out
here for AT&T t-mobile Sprint or Verizon so something to consider but you know
it's nature you come out here for the experience of being away from society
which is where I'm going back to now if I can find my way whoa
whoa okay you also might notice that some of the people living through here
seem to be a little more comfortable than others maybe like they're here for
the entire season look at that there's a vault toilet up here huh okay I did not
know that alrighty back to this dirt road now and
we are officially headed for the coast today we should be near the Atlantic
Ocean Jack's man I know that's exciting okay I'll do the driving you just go
ahead sleep okay okay we're parked Jack's chillin fan going in step outside
nothing amazing but thank you Cracker Barrell for being the new Walmart's
basically still have not found a Cracker Barrel it doesn't allow some overnight
parking and yeah we got one other RV behind me a rental cruise America over
there otherwise I'm gonna cut this video right here because I want to go explore
the beach tomorrow not necessarily today so stay tuned for
my next video from hopefully the Atlantic Ocean have a good night guys
