It was time to leave after spending a few days at Walker Lake, Nevada. I wanted to and would have stayed longer, but I was running out of drinking water and coffee. So I headed North hoping to find a new spot as nice as Walker Lake had been.

My name is Scott and in 2015, I bought a Ram ProMaster City to live in. Even though I didn’t know much about RV’s and campervans, I set about building the van out as a minivan camper. And in April of 2016, I moved into my minivan full time.
Over the years, I’ve learned you don’t need to have a big skill set to build your own campervan. And that living as a minimalist and utilizing solar power can be a less expensive way to live. I’ve also learned that a minivan can be a very comfortable home.
Please follow along as I document my journey.

"A seven and a zero = 90". Love it! I am gas mileage conscious also, it saves my van as well. They pass me and see a grey haired lady in a mini van and shake their heads! Haha! Never judge, I rode a Harley for twenty years, ha! Love your journey Scott. Thank you.
When I retired I must have had a mental switch that turned off (or ON) and I just get in the right lane and let the world go past. I don't need to rush anymore. 😀
Great one. Tacos or Grilled cheese, decisions, decisions. I am a part time nomad who misses the road life when back in my sticks and bricks. One of the reasons I love this channel is so much is the coverage of what some may see as mundane: water hunting, pant purchase & how to wash, meals etc. Having to focus on these easier things are what calm me and draw me out again to my road addiction.
Thanks Peter
Agree.. so true..
When he didn’t get the 50 cent a gallon water I thought he should get it because he’s going to wish he did, it’s overpriced for a reason … it’s like “ they-the powers that be” know he’s going to find a nice spot to chill but will need water ! 💦
Beautiful scenery! Glad you found your pants, always a great feeling. You weren’t hungry probably because you had an apple and it was warm out. Keep safe on the roads and thanks for taking us along.
Be careful out there. Was sitting by the campfire, when two giant wild dogs crept in behind us, in the dark. One ran into my tent while the other stood there growling at us. Terrifying to say the least. We didn't hear or see them until they were in our face. I sensed extreme danger my nephew frozen in fear, Frozen! I tried sweet talking them, hey pooch, where did you come from? It worked and they ran off. Sure glad I didn't have children in my tent. Sure glad there was only two. I think they come out at night, under the cover of dark. There is a giant, unknown breed of dog running around. Now I think I know why my favorite camping sites are always empty. Those dogs are not afraid of you! Came into our campsite to terrorize us. Danger, danger. I gave up the woods. I'm never going back. Scared the crap out of us. They were soaking wet. I think from running thru the mountains. What really scares me?, what does a giant eat! Stay safe man. Giant wild dangerous dogs. And they say that dogs run in packs. Yikes. Talk latter, I hope. Bye
🤣Funny Tobacco smells are the best! Great video!
So glad to see you smiling.
Have a great trip.
I wish if I can live like your life. So I always watch your videos.
You can live the vanlife, too!
❤WOW ,so Beautiful,like some 1 painted a picture of clouds!💫
Sierra and Lego. Got it. :)
Scott you are hilarious. Sierras, stinky pants. I love it.( People are too intense.They need to chill). This is entertainment for me and I take your little "mistakes " with a grain of salt. Keep making these videos please.
This was a nice vlog, it's very calming and therapeutic catching up on your life. Thanks for sharing and I'll send a little donation to buy you a coffee as my thank you for providing content.
Thanks Chris.
I love the hardtack (Wasa) with sardines ,
It's a delight to discover the kind of "overnight" place where you end up staying a few days.
Oh, and you can schlep your water jugs in a shopping cart rather than carrying them. :)
We all know that I need some more exercise
Scott, they are made in Sweden 😁. Been eating them the whole life, because they are Very Common Here
Hej pa dig🙂
@@dominiquebt Hej själv 😊
Scott in search 🔍 of…… coffee. The final frontier. Finds pants and mood has improved. The vanlife continues tho less smelly…..
We always use a little white vinegar to hand wash any hiking clothes. It is a miracle
I will give it a try, Thanks
Smiles your way
Those wasa crackers are the bomb !!
You go. We go. Thank you^^
The scenery is breathtaking no wonder you want to stay. About those aggressive drivers, if you're doing 65 and people are peed off at you, that's their problem as long as you're driving in the right lane.
I find you and your videos interesting to watch. I get your calm, quirky, mild ironic but slightly humorous personality. You remind me of a mix of different actors. The guy from old series X-Files David what's his name (I'd try spell it but won't). And another David actor (again with the last name), played Meryl Streep husband on River Wild. And finally everybody loves Raymond, Ray Romano. And to me all this is good. I will keep watching your travels so be safe out there on the road and streets though I sense your intuition is on point in your surroundings.
It interests me how quickly I lose desire for a food item that makes me sick. So I avoid milk products pretty easily - cow milk and I don't get along at all except for bits of cheese and butter - and wheat. So that sour dough though it looks pretty good for white flour, wouldn't be something I'd choose. But yeah, apples!!!! Fruit is a big deal for me and it can be expensive but I look at junk food and realize that fruit is often much less per ounce and has so much more nutrition as well as being a source of hydration. Hmmm, you may not have wanted supper because Carson is pretty high too. Dunno. Yeah, my son has trouble finding pants with a small enough waist for him too. Good thing you found some, even at the dreaded WalMart! I like how you explain how and why you do things.
I’m in London very surprised you got lavassa coffee I love it I have been drinking it for years to me it’s the best.you cope so well.always with a smile love your videos.thankyou.
Adds bit of vinegar to rid odor smells in laundry
To get rid of the bad smell from your clothes, soak them overnight in water with a dash of vinegar before washing. It works for me.
Absolutely love ur humor. I have an older class b. I drive 60 or 65 everyone can pass me too.
I have a cargo van with no windows and agree. I do have Havlock Wool and fans. People are shocked that they can feel cool escape when they open the cabin doors
Wow Scott this was awesome. Great video as always ❤
Good Day Scott 🌞 Walmart Usely has water 🌊 in machine for 29-39 cents a gal if you have containers! Sometimes Walmart has clothing higher end & lower end, clearance!👍🤞✌️🙌🙏🇺🇸🌅🌄🌞💫
You crack me up me er thought about telling someone their tobacco has gone bad lol
So pretty, but if you can't swim in it I'm gone
I wear the same Wrangler flex pants for work, I usually get several days of wear before they need to be washed, been doing this for about 18 months, I don't even wear my Jeans anymore.
Those clouds were amazing.
The sky here always seems amazing
You can go across the street to the senior citizens complex,, 3dlls for lunch
Hi, please spread butter on the Wasa bread. Yes, it is actually dried bread and very common in the Northern part of Europe to be eaten as bread. You can add cheese, cucumber slices and mayo on top of the bread as well. I believe that the Wasa bread is made in Sweden. We have counterpart bread in Finland as well. :D
Humor! Love it! I can remember when I had a 32 inch waist… some 35 years ago when I was in the army. Also, btw, that skuny smelling tobacco is legal here in Nevada. I wish it weren’t. 😉😆
Hi Scott. I'm pretty sure that the cotton is more breathable than nylon. Take care and stay safe.
Since the Colorado River is drying up and water is getting more and more scarce out west probably the machines for water are going to start charging more money.
I love the pepperoni idea on the grilled cheese sandwich. I’ll have to try that someday.
🤣 You're eating Knäckebröd! It's Swedish, originated in the 16th century, and Wasa is just one of the brands making it. The Wasa company, founded in 1919, also used to be Swedish but ended up as part of the Barilla group (Italian) in the 80's. So funny to see you explain a food that's a staple in every Swedish home, school, hospital, hotel aso. Everywhere that is. Knäckebröd literately translates to "crack bread", so not to far off from a cracker I guess 😄 Ranting, I know. Will stop now. Thank you for that relaxing content. Your videos have a soothing quality to them that I really appreciate. See you in the next one 😊
I love food hauls .great video
Luv your dry wit.
Good sandwich, like pizza! Need some coleslaw with it!🤞👍
With the synthetic materials although they seem convenient because they will dry quick and they are trendy now, for me personally they just aren't breathable enough. I get too hot in them and feel gross. 100% soft cotton is the way to go if you can get it
Thanks for another entertaining half hour. I love your dry humor, I get educated on how to speak English, especially where to put those Sssss I love that you get excited about good cheap coffee
Clean clothes and good smells are important to me, too. When planning for van life, I found out about merino wool and other types of odor-resistant materials that long haul hikers and outdoorsmen use. Not sure how easy those materials are to wash and dry by hand though!
The Only reason I haven’t bought merino wool clothes is the price. They seem to last forever so if one can afford the initial cost, wool clothes would definitely be worth the investment
I decided to purchase merino wool long sleeve tops … worked overtime and justified the purchases every other pay period. $100 for long sleeve tops, I tell you it feels heavenly when I put it on and I can feel the difference in terms of staying warm. I purchased them from REI … I need other merino wool items so far I’ve only purchased long sleeve tops and socks .. they wash and dry easily ..
You make me laugh 😂 That rest area spot was nice. Skunky smelling tobacco is weed. I know because my neighbor smoke it often on their balcony and the wind blows that smell right in my windows. It really smells like there is a skunk in the area. I thought you had found a solution for the eggs, I forgot what it was but you did not have to eat soy free eggs anymore. Cotton is as I understand much healthier for the skin then nylon. Nice video, thank you 🙏
It was a fun day and I enjoyed it with you, let me know how the coffee was that you bought to day. I have seen that coffee before but, I have not bought any because I am not sure how strong it is. Have an awesome evening, goodnight
Seems like maybe you got a bit of that skunky second hand smoke. 😎😶🌫️✌️
LMAO AT TOBACCO GONE BAD! AND SKUNK MELLING IN THE AIR, I THINK THAT MIGHT BE MARIJUANA THE FUNKY STUFF LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
Thank you for sharing your beautiful spot. Sound like your felling much better. I like your laugh. Watching you cooking and making coffee and showing your location are very pleasant 😊
Bing watching again cause your videos calm me and I have a brain scan tomorrow to see if my stomach cancer spread. But that's life. Anyway I can escape in your videos. So, it's me Susie, retired criminal defense attorney from NY and I think you are a fine, good hearted young man. The smell of smoke like a skunk is Marijuana, weed, cannibus sativa. That's what they are smoking for sure. I, myself can't stand any cigarette smoke at all. So that was cute that you thought it was a lousy cigarette they were smoking. You always make me smile. The pants are nice and a good choice. Glad you did a grocery haul. All of it sounds gourmet like and tasty. Scott, please do more videos. Ok, glad you got the water. You look hot so it must be in the 80's. God bless dear friend for sharing your journeys with us. Yeh, on I-95 where I live, I stay in the right lane and the 18 wheelers blow air horns, curse me. Hey, I go slow. So God bless, stay safe. 🙏❤❤😊😊
I’m happy to hear my videos are a help. Although I’m sad to hear why. Wishing you all the best tomorrow.
That was a joke about the cigarettes. Weed is a migraine trigger for me so I usually leave a place quickly if it’s being used nearby.
Thanks for the kind words and encouragement.
You should have totally yelled that hilarious tabaco phrase at them and record it to see the reaction.
I used to stop in at that G.O. about 10 to15 years ago when I was frequenting Tahoe. You could get so much food for under $20 dollars. With the price of food and gas these days, you'd almost have to live in your van in order to survive and to have a good time. I really don't know if I want to spend the gas money to go back to that area unless I can get a car that gets double the gas mileage. Have a good week !!
At least you know slower traffic in the right lane. Here in the Midwest it drives me crazy when people drive in the left lane and others clearly are going faster and want to get around them and it ends up being somebody in the left lane just overreacting and being unsafe trying to pass the first car. I’m with you I’m like “go to town bud you go ahead and burn thru that gas.”
Scott
Many thanks
Cheers
Glenn
You can add a little white vinegar to the wash to neutralize odors. Maybe 1/2-1 cup per wash.
I do a lot of hand washing like in this video:
czcams.com/video/ubhhpX2vxjg/video.html
Wasa is a Swedish brand that is highly popular in Scandinavian countries. I’m a huge fan of the cinnamon flatbread.
Yes, nylon has a habit of pulling apart where sewn. Not to mention it can cause many of us to sweat more. Hope the wranglers work out.
So far the Wranglers are much more comfortable
Enjoyed seeing your purchases and different brands. Haven't heard of the discount store you went to nice you were able to get such good bargains. Have a good evening.
👋 Scott 😊
I love that area. I plan to take the Harley up 395 to Reno.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Scott, you rock. I have enjoyed all the videos I've seen so far. You are natural at this!
I absolutely love Tillamook ice cream! I hope to visit their creamery one of these days!
Hey Thanks Shaun.
Hey Thanks Shaun.
Another amazing video
Of course, cotton is best. Great coffee price! It's nice to see you not so static! 👍😎🇨🇦💦
You should take a Timelapse of those clouds. The setting sun color changes are amazing sped up. Great vid.
My husband bought some pants at tractor supply that worked out great for him. They are the Blue Mountain Brand (I think that is a store brand), and are about $15- at least here in NH. Sometimes they go on sale for $10-$12. They are thin enough for warmer weather and cotton. The only thing is that we ended up buying the next longer pair because the shrink in length. They gladly let us exchange that pair - the waist size was fine. That was a few years ago - one would have to inquire as to the leg lenght shrinkage now.... They are sized as low a 30 in length. Around here, they also stock Wrangler at Tractor Supply. He has had the pants (4 of them) at least 3 years. They are holding up great so far!
I enjoyed the video!
Nice, peaceful video!
During the early 1970's fuel crisis, Highway speed limits were reduced to 55 MPH. Wonder if they might do that again ?
I do the same on highway ,if speed limit says 65,I Usely do 60 to save on gas mi.👍🌞
As soon as I got the notification that you dropped a video, I made me a coffee hahahha. saludos mi amigo.
☕️
Thanks
Aww, Thanks so much, Jessie!
Here in Québec, Canada the gas is not cheap at $6.68 $/gallon !!!
Luv your enlightened take on "Sierra" - The Range of Light ! 🙂
That was a beautiful rest area you found. It left me wondering if the rest areas in NV tend to be as beautiful as the ones in AZ. And BTW, those rye crackers are from Sweden. I used to eat them all the time when I lived there. Very dry, but good with a slice of cheese, tomatoes, bell peppers and/or ham. A Swedish staple:)
I haven’t seen very many rest areas here in Nevada. That one might be my favorite of any.
The package of Wasa crackers I have states they were made in Germany
Wasa(brod) or Wasa Bread is a Swedish company, but they also have a bakery in Germany. Is probably where they do most of their exporting from.
@Dominique Trammel You forgot the Butter... 😁 Always spread butter on the crackers. And you even could crack them into small pieces, and have them on top of youghurt
@@vanilla_vanancie Haha, yes to the butter. Forgot about the fish paste in a tube, too 😋
@Dominique Trammell It is fish spawn 😁
Thank you for the idea of the backside of the Sierra. I’m originally from Bay Area so we often don’t go beyond Tahoe or Yosemite 🎈
Being from SoCal, the east side wasn’t on my radar. But it’s nice here, too.
I was just in the Reno area over the Memorial day weekend. Lake Tahoe is a great place to visit if you're still around that area.
Nice to hear from you. Hope you’re doing great.
It's amazing how quickly we become conditioned to $5+ not being terribly expensive for gas
The only reason I’m not livid seeing $5+ gas is that’s $1.50 less than gas is being sold in the places that I want to be.
I’ve lost my choice to travel as I would like to travel.
@@StaticCamperVani just hit the road today and I've already filled up twice $87 and $98.....its very difficult and hard to believe the cheapest gas I saw was in Connecticut at $4.55
Feels a bit like robbery, doesn’t it?
Thanks! Drinking either sweetened or unsweetened coffee is associated with a lower death risk compared with not drinking the beverage, according to a new study published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine.
Hooray!
looks very peaceful Scott.. ATB Take care.
Nice peaceful video. Thank you! Have you tried Fabreeze for clothes stinkies? Comes in unscented. I have a washer and dryer so never need it. Just a thought. 🤔
Fabreeze id a migraine trigger. I avoid it at all costs
I always called them the Sierra Nevada's or Sierras....prolly always will.
You’re brave writing that.
👍✌️
Making me feel lucky for paying only $4.23/gallon today which has been a high point the last few weeks over here in the southeast. I'll trade you some gas for less humidity.
Fifty cents a gal for water if good but 5.19 a gal for gas is outrageous, 2.95 is normal
Wasa is made in Sweden ✌️😎
These claim to be made in Germany
@@StaticCamperVan Wasa bread is Swedish, but your box is perhaps made in Germany .... Its named after Swedens first King Gustaf Vasa, and you have the famous battleship The Vasa ship. The bread factory was founded in 1919
@@ERNIE555 Yes, guess they have many factories, what JN and I meant was that it started in Sweden. The Wasa brand have strong connection to Sweden like Ikea, volvo and abba
There’s Wild Horse Reservoir about 60 miles NW of Elko on 225. You could check out the BLM situation there. We own land out that way. Beautiful out there. You’re near where I live in Stagecoach.
This is the first time that you didn't make perfect sense to me - that's a pretty good record. BUT, I bet you get the 50 cent WATER next time. 🙂
That makes two of us
I love grilled cheese and pepperoni sandwiches
Hi there you only need to say "Sierrra" and not "Sierras", cause I bet they are using the spanish version of the word... Sierra is a group of small mountains in spanish.
🦋
Your neighbours were smoking a little bit of 😂 pot . ✌️😬
What?!? 🙃
The larger the vehicle, the faster the speed, the louder the gas price complaints. 🤔
p.s.... I love you.
You mention coffee. Interested to see how fine you grind your coffee and how long you leave it. Have you tried roasting?
Ur waay too cute... please come come visit Ontario Canada
The park is in Gardnerville
I was there for a couple of days and I stared getting bully by the neighborhood watch,, complaining about everything I did,, calling the police on me for no reason,, following everywhere I went,,
The hills by the highway appear so desolate...
Before you know it's going to be Legal everywhere, people are going to be smoking wherever they want pretty much without any repercussions.
They already do
@@StaticCamperVan I have severe asthma, I cannot stand any type of smoke, even the slightest.
