    So, those guards (or whoever stopped you from sleeping in the parking lot) were absolutely right. Circus Circus is a horrible place to be after dark. There's a reason you were alone in that parking lot! I've lived in Vegas for nearly 20 years, and the North side of the Strip, behind the casinos, is one of those places you just don't go. You didn't get caught as much as you got some helpful advice!

      Either Henderson, Nelson, or Eldorado Lake Bed would be a better option than Vegas Strip. Lived here since 1986, I avoid Circus Circus and the Strat area at all times.

      ​@@shuriKen469 there's some videos on here that kinda show it at night. You have a lot of drug addicts down that way, many of whom can be pretty violent. There's some gang activity and other things you just don't want to be in the vicinity of. Tourists are primary targets on those backstreets.

    What a crazy fun episode! A Foresty van with a Las Vegas backdrop, a crockpot, on top of a van out in the wilderness with an extension cord, and a guy who can’t cook rice yet puts together the most amazing dinner to go on top of the rice package.

    In my opinion, Rocko is so attached to you that if you left her for a few months, she would be heartbroken. She wouldn't understand the separation. Merry Christmas to you and I am glad you are enjoying your visit in the States. Give Rocko a special treat for me. Love you and the wonderful Rocko!!

      I agree that Rocko is blessed with a lot of energy but for sheer running ability I don't think I've ever seen anything better than Andrew Camarata's dog Cody. Andrew goes cruising around his mountain top and Cody runs in front of him blazing a trail. He should be a greyhound.

      Huge fan of Forest Forest and Rocko. Please dont roast me ........... Rocko seems to be the dominate of the 2.... She is living life on her terms , not sure if its just the breed or Simon just lets her get away with it. The one video I saw when Simon tried to move her off a pillow and she showed her teeth in disapproval , or when she just helps herself to Simons food , not to mention the constant mooching is a sure sign. None of my business , just saying in IMHO a dog needs to know his or her place other wise the dog will have less respect for the owner. Everybody with a dog will have a different view. THATS JUST ME.

      It's some good life advice as well, so many people, buy stuff because they think they need it, or because someone else has it. You even see it with many vanlifers as well, trying to fit a regular home with all their stuff into a van. I mean if you can do without plates, that's less baggage to haul around.
      Although i do admit, one plate seems like a nice thing to have.

      100% correct on that one I went there towards the end of last year around November when the pandemic restrictions were a little lighter I saw multiple fights in the streets I simply assumed it was because of those pandemic checks that were being given out but apparently it's not gotten much better from what the news reports have said truly unfortunate because not too far from the strip there is some great BLM land with a nice one-way Loop you can ride a bike around or drive around to see the scenery

    The two lessons Mr Twiglet taught us are 1) Jack Russell's love jumping on tables 2) Jack Russell's eat everything in sight - literally.
    Without realizing the danger, about two Christmas's ago we left a chocolate reindeer where he could get it - he bit the head off - foil and all and we spent Christmas night at the vets having him treated and parted with £260 in the process ! They're high energy dogs as you say and when i was upstairs practicing my keyboard he wanted to come up - Mrs Twiglet said " He wants to be with you " even though there was a comfortable bed for him to jump on to.I'm afraid we're attached as they say.Love him to bits.

    - Wash rice
    - Boil the liquid first with butter added - DO NOT ADD RICE INTO COLD LIQUID
    - Add washed rice to hot liquid and bring back to boiling point
    - Turn down to low simmer, cover and simmer for 15 minutes - DO NOT OPEN LID
    - When done remove from heat, rest covered for 10 minutes - DO NOT OPEN LID
    - When times up, fluff rice with fork

    My place is only 2 hours from Vegas! If you head to Northern AZ then feel free to swing by. I also wouldn't mind sharing coordinates for a few of my super secret spots around Sedona. Have a great weekend, Forest!

    A truly nice guy, a man who lives by a code but yet his own set of rules. To me, Foresty is the most hardcore G in the game. Hat's off homie, much respect.

    Congratulations on finding a sibling Crockpot! One that sings. Seriously should be your intro. I haven’t gotten the ‘knock’ yet. There’s 6 of us at Hotel Walmart. We’re off to the side mingled in with some overnight employees. My window condensation gives me away😂. Awesome video as always. Hugs and love to you & Rocko!!❤️❤️

    The scene where you are climbing the chute made me think; “he set the camera up, climbed the chute. Then climbed right back down to retrieve the camera, then climbed the shite again.” All for 15 seconds of video!
    I admire you day hiking with your own raft!

    I stealth camped in a casino parking lot once and nobody bothered me. Big difference from your attempt however. I did it during the height of the pandemic in 2020 and the casino in West Wendover, Nevada was closed. Plus I was in a mini-van with no outward signs of being a camper van. I was still spooked by all the empty parking spaces, so from then on I stealth camped exclusively in chain motel parking lots where I was a bit more comfortable as the lots were generally at least half full overnight.

    Hey Foresty. Tim and Fin have a CZcams channel and they bring their dog Pepper with them on flights. They usually use a soft shelled pet carrier and she goes with them into the cabin area. She just has to stay in her carrier. Worth looking into. Great video as always.

      Just don't let a flight attendant order you to put the bag with a little dog inside up in the overhead compartment; this happened to a frenchy-pup owner & the dog suffocated to death.
      If I couldn't keep my dog with me 100% of the time, I wouldn't fly with them. Way too life threatening for the pets.

    I've been so excited to see this video ever since your patreon post. It seems people get rid of small appliances frequently, what a selection of crockpots you had! I love love love the jingle. What contrasts you had, from gridlock to a beautiful hike and pack raft. Rocko following you on the shore was the cutest. This is my absolute favorite episode! Happy Holidays to all!

    I can't be the only one that thinks your 'van cookin' is pretty fancy for what it is and the limitations that you have. You totally need to put together a book with a wide variety of your recipes and cooking methods. Anyway, as always I love watching your videos and soaking in a little bit of your freedom that you share with us!

    Definitely take Rocco with you! In-cabin carrier will be the best way to go. The vet can give her some chews to calm down and relax during the flight. I traveled with my dog from CO to FL with a TX connection and my dog did pretty good. Make sure she doesn’t eat after 10 pm and give her a light breakfast, and walk her before putting her in the carrier.

    I camp around Vegas a bit. If I camp in casino I always try to go off strip to M resort or Southpoint and make sure to park front of casino entrance where most of the cars are parked over night.
    If you want to camp on the strip, there is free parking for Las Vegas airport transit station for 7 days or you can look up hotel with free parking on strip.
    My favorite is Jeans fried lake bed or BLM around Pahrump hwy.

    You should try making a bunch of vegies cooked up on the frying pan then once prepared to your liking put it in crock pot then add one can of Cambell's Chunky Creamy chicken noodle and heat it up.
