    Hey madilynn, that spot you found at the end was stunning!! I love this retrospective style of video. There are so many challenges to your way of life and it must be so difficult sometimes just wanting to be stationary and find stability in one spot but not being able to find something ideal for your needs - but as you said in the video every challenge led you to the beautiful finale! That shot of your silhouette in front of the sunset over the mountains was incredible. I love following your story 🫶🏼 please keep sharing these amazing highs and lows! You’re fantastic ! Love from Poppy in Australia ☺️🎀

    Hi Madilynn 👋
    What a fabulous camp spot you found in the end, so beautiful. That view and the sunset - stunning. I love the end shot of you in silhouette against it.
    May I ask about your little printer? I have a Pooliprint, but it only does basic black and white thermal images. Yours seems great. Do you have a link by any chance?
    Happy travels!
    Love from Scotland x

    Mosquitoes can be such a pain! I have a friend who works in Yosemite NP and he got a bunch of mosquito gear including a net for his face so he doesn't get eaten when he goes fishing. It looks ridicules but it might be worth investing so you can be confident in any place you find that you have a plan to ward off the blood suckers! He just got his gear from Amazon.

    Mosquitos are a terrible necessity for sure lol. I have a few small ponds on the property and some times they can just be awful at peak times in the summer. Spring and fall isn't bad at all though. I'm considering looking into getting some Dragonfly Nymphs or something to cut the numbers down, use nature to fight nature. That's such a cool little photo printer, perfect for scrap books for sure.

    Just a comment/nit/thought - I don't think fans work the same for dogs as they do people. People sweat and the fan helps evaporates the sweat and which cools them off. I guess if the fan is blowing in the dog's mouth it would be the same.

    get the thermacell rechargeable repellent device. v1 works better then v2 and makes less noise on start up. i have both and use the v1 when i play disc golf. its not meant to move around but when i set my bag down to throw and all my friends throw it enough time for the bugs to leave. and the v2 i just leave in the van but i leave my van door open and have it on the foot step and it just does its job and no bugs. well at least no bugs that drink your blood lol they are kinda spendy but well worth it in my opinion. i live in WA and we get so many dumb mosquitos
