[0:01] I'm not moving very fast

[0:03] today it's 9:00 in the

[0:07] morning have a very long day I got to go

[0:09] and I got to get up on that roof in the

[0:12] rain to make sure there's no debris up

[0:14] there there's been four storms already

[0:16] this

[0:17] week oh I got to go into town and get

[0:20] fuel and propane I need to get my Jeep

[0:23] hooked up I have to drive an hour and a

[0:26] half north I have to set up at a new

[0:28] campsite I got to get this place ready

[0:30] to

[0:31] go I'm just sitting here I am being a

[0:35] very bad Nomad right

[0:38] now well I just needed some high energy

[0:41] music to get me moving got back from the

[0:44] shower we got 3 hours left flooded

[0:46] campsite got to get up there got to take

[0:49] this down in the rain put my starlink

[0:54] away just deal with those two c oh we

[0:57] got a moat starting to

[0:58] form it's a lovely day take my Jeep down

[1:02] I'm going to park it

[1:04] somewhere I think we'll walk down to the

[1:06] um the cape Edge just for a

[1:09] minute then going to have to deal with

[1:11] this and then we'll go into town so I

[1:14] just got a troll comment from somebody

[1:16] saying I'm not monetized cuz I'm not at

[1:18] a thousand wonder what my phone's doing

[1:21] that for

[1:22] weird I think I've been destroying my

[1:24] phone because of all the wind here

[1:26] putting it in 80 M hour wind and stuff

[1:28] like that I noticed it mess up with my

[1:31] audio yesterday now I can't even hold a

[1:34] can't even hold a picture that's

[1:37] interesting oh well we'll navigate that

[1:40] too if we have to so anyways I got this

[1:43] comment from this person who's just

[1:44] being an because um apparently

[1:47] they don't consider 500 Subs to be

[1:50] monetization um I think that's curious

[1:52] because you literally have to apply for

[1:54] monetization at 500 in order to unlock

[1:57] membership so whatever this is typical

[2:00] trollish abusive Behavior on YouTube and

[2:03] I'm going to call it

[2:04] out okay we're just going to park there

[2:07] for a few

[2:08] hours hope she'll be safe

[2:12] there we'll see how this thing is doing

[2:15] in the rain

[2:16] today that guy's assholery annoyed me so

[2:20] much I missed my turn onto the trail the

[2:23] long way which is fine we're going to go

[2:25] see the parking lot over here you could

[2:27] see a lot of different things and so of

[2:30] just the cliff Edge lighthouses over

[2:31] here but it's pretty foggy

[2:34] today nice and rainy it's a nice

[2:38] day you know I'm not going to pretend

[2:40] like people don't annoy me when they do

[2:42] like I know people say ignore the trolls

[2:45] you know that's a human being being an

[2:47] to another human being for no

[2:49] good reason and you should call

[2:51] that out so that it's not normalize the

[2:53] way that we've normalized it you know I

[2:56] don't know who they think they are

[2:58] they're not that special all

[2:59] they they did was irritate me and I'll

[3:02] move on

[3:04] and

[3:05] continue living my best life which I

[3:08] guarantee is better than theirs I've

[3:10] really been wanting to go up to that

[3:12] Lighthouse but my core muscles are still

[3:14] so sore that just can't risk it it's a

[3:18] pretty high descent Ascent you on

[3:21] descent you know get back down and how I

[3:24] messed my core muscles up on that

[3:26] mountain I got to give it another month

[3:28] I think I'm listening to what told me

[3:30] I'm taking it easy especially

[3:33] considering you know

[3:35] today literally moving to another

[3:38] campground where I'm going to be

[3:39] volunteering doing physical labor so

[3:42] just don't want to overdo it I need to

[3:43] give them time to heal so I can go back

[3:45] to my normal routine I can 10 15 miles a

[3:48] day 7 days a week maybe I'll cut back a

[3:53] little

[3:55] bit not a lot though I got up to the top

[3:58] I think it was the top

[4:00] I can't remember 6 or 8% of all Samsung

[4:03] phone users of the Samsung heal

[4:06] app um of everybody every age

[4:08] group I was so damn proud of

[4:11] that not competing it's just nice to

[4:13] know that even at my age you know I've

[4:16] still got it

[4:18] so really want to see that Lighthouse

[4:21] so I suppose there's wisdom

[4:26] in um acknowledging that you can do that

[4:29] another day I don't know what that

[4:32] wisdom is it's not something

[4:34] that I'm likely to ever embody

[4:38] myself well I'll pretend like I

[4:41] do it's nice Misty day I'm definely

[4:44] getting wet out

[4:45] here so we're just walking up to the

[4:48] cliff Edge

[4:52] now it's going to

[4:55] be an interesting day so the next part's

[4:58] hard I got to get up on my roof in the

[4:59] rain I don't even like getting out there

[5:01] when it's dry out so then I got to drive

[5:03] that thing into

[5:05] town that's always the hardest part is

[5:07] driving the RV like it's I going to

[5:10] pretend that's gotten easy for me I did

[5:13] drive it across the country and it's

[5:16] still um I suppose some of that

[5:19] trepidation goes away once I start

[5:20] driving though it's just um anticipation

[5:25] maybe but I got to drive it into town

[5:27] and navigate a gas station I mean the

[5:29] truck stop so it'll be all right though

[5:32] I know it will and hopefully they're

[5:35] open hopefully I can get

[5:36] propane just not sure this January

[5:40] 1st

[5:41] um and I'll drive back H my Jeep hook up

[5:45] and we'll drive

[5:47] north start the next chapter of my

[5:50] life I am excited about

[5:54] it I hope

[5:57] like hope I meet some interesting people

[6:00] there if we meet some hot

[6:05] guys they don't all have to be hot

[6:07] though yeah they do they do they got to

[6:11] be hot

[6:13] so you know we'll go

[6:16] and do some Doom buggy Wars

[6:20] and discover some new segments of the

[6:22] beach there a couple of lighthouses to

[6:24] go check out um pretty close to there

[6:27] there's one very close and then there's

[6:29] another not too far

[6:31] away we'll just have to start looking

[6:34] more North cuz everything below that

[6:37] I've explored

[6:38] so we'll come back explore it all again

[6:42] in a different season but it's time

[6:46] to put my eyes

[6:48] North and you know

[6:50] what I actually know which direction

[6:53] that is because of this ocean right here

[6:55] that's

[6:57] North you can Orient your stuff because

[6:59] of the ocean how cool is

[7:02] that so we're

[7:08] here this is a nice day nice last day

[7:11] here like this you don't know would see

[7:14] the fog like this here at least I

[7:16] haven't I've been here a

[7:21] lot you can't even see the lighthouse if

[7:24] only that light was working Coast Guard

[7:26] fix it already

[7:31] so that would be a nice thing to see

[7:33] right now wouldn't

[7:34] it we're

[7:39] here oh I was going to say you know

[7:43] there's a lesson

[7:44] in how high in emotions can disrupt your

[7:49] patterns you know and I'm like sitting

[7:51] here thinking to myself how could that

[7:53] happen to

[7:54] me I'm not too happy about that but then

[7:56] I realized oh we drove my Jeep up there

[8:00] past the trail that's why I didn't find

[8:02] the

[8:03] trail we we drove past it I just kept

[8:06] walking

[8:08] yeah

[8:11] whatever a nice view from up

[8:13] here bit

[8:15] scary oh look at that you could see

[8:18] the

[8:20] um you could see where the workshop is

[8:23] at they're watching me up here you all

[8:26] see me up here yes this is scary

[8:30] I may spend a lot of time on Cliff edges

[8:33] but this is up house still a little bit

[8:35] scary we're up here though this thing is

[8:39] clean I did my I did my chore the most

[8:42] important one I feel cuz it's about

[8:44] safety so wasn't that bad four

[8:48] storms I don't know I always expect big

[8:51] logs to be up

[8:52] here who are you are you attractive

[8:56] can't

[8:57] tell anyways I got all right let's get

[8:59] down from here this is scary this is

[9:02] truly an abysal site I didn't want to be

[9:05] at this one for two weeks I want to be

[9:07] next to it but it didn't work out that

[9:10] way we got the flooded one we're ready

[9:12] to go except I made one mistake that

[9:15] propane tank got to go in the back of my

[9:18] Jeep so we got to go back and get my

[9:20] Jeep and it's very heavy I'm not going

[9:22] to try carrying that especially with my

[9:23] core muscles the way they

[9:25] are being

[9:27] responsible even if my cor muscles were

[9:30] totally healed right now I still

[9:31] wouldn't care that thing way

[9:33] down here no thank you we'll go get the

[9:38] Jeep I'm ready for today I'm

[9:43] ready it's going to be an interesting

[9:49] one it's

[9:52] just these are threshold

[9:54] moments you're going to feel a lot of

[9:56] things during

[9:57] those it's like yourself feel

[10:02] them I love this weather it's a perfect

[10:06] perfect way to end my time here okay

[10:09] that task is done now now we can go and

[10:12] actually go to a fuel

[10:17] station so when you don't

[10:20] compartmentalize you you process

[10:22] everything even some comments

[10:24] and I'm sitting here thinking you know

[10:27] that's how that man chose to start a new

[10:28] year

[10:30] I'm applying it to larger patterns it's

[10:31] not about the troll it's about Humanity

[10:34] in general this man started a new year

[10:37] by being an to someone he

[10:39] doesn't know and you

[10:43] know I wait for this

[10:46] I wait for humans

[10:50] because we had so much

[10:53] potential and we squandered

[10:56] it we didn't stand up for better better

[11:00] values and

[11:03] ethics we let the world compartmentalize

[11:06] and fragment

[11:07] us we're going to pay the price for that

[11:11] okay I think we're

[11:12] W we're readying I don't think we

[11:16] are so find my keys

[11:19] here nice and dark back

[11:23] there I'm just going to head in Port

[11:25] Orford get some fuel and hopefully some

[11:27] propane

[11:34] I pulled up to get myself out of the

[11:37] flooded zone so I could get stuff into

[11:38] the storage B very wet you know now I

[11:42] don't have my cat anymore so I can

[11:44] actually have my window

[11:46] down trying to see the positive do miss

[11:49] him been a couple weeks now surprisingly

[11:52] almost you know I've been here for two

[11:55] weeks but it was the right choice I was

[11:59] what needed to

[12:01] happen so see I got half a tank we would

[12:05] have been able to make it but I want to

[12:08] get this thing filled

[12:10] out

[12:12] and just do those tasks get those out of

[12:14] the way before I stationing there for a

[12:17] while that rain did a number on my

[12:20] moisturizer too was like dripping all

[12:22] over me and stuff all right let's go

[12:25] looks like we're going to be dealing

[12:27] with some very strong winds to day I

[12:30] didn't notice there was a storm I

[12:31] noticed it yesterday when I looked at

[12:32] the windy

[12:34] app um think we'll be fine though just

[12:37] take it

[12:39] easy this is my first time kind of

[12:41] driving in this weather though so we'll

[12:43] see how that goes we're doing it we're

[12:46] getting propane here he comes hopefully

[12:49] I'm close enough hopefully I'm close

[12:50] enough this a very SL Diesel

[12:54] power SL this wind is just threatened to

[12:58] Bow me over went over a bridge and that

[13:00] thing looked just the side of my RV so

[13:04] it's going to be a bit of

[13:06] a um bit of a stressful drive I'm

[13:09] thinking got to go back to the cave to

[13:11] get my Jeep kind of thinking maybe I

[13:13] should have just brought it but no

[13:14] because my Jeep would have been out in

[13:15] the road when I got propane so I did the

[13:19] right thing I just got to go back and

[13:20] get my Jeep and then it'll be off

[13:23] so real proud of myself got

[13:26] this we're on our way back to keep bonco

[13:31] let's see the sign up here have to say

[13:34] goodbye to the

[13:35] place I love this place so much I'm

[13:38] going to miss it I'm going to miss you

[13:41] Kate

[13:43] bonco this RV driv is pretty nice

[13:45] without

[13:46] this maybe I could get like if I did it

[13:49] enough maybe I could get used to driving

[13:50] this around places but this just a big

[13:54] beast of a thing I don't really

[13:56] trust so

[13:59] I'd much rather just park it at the

[14:00] campground or just get in my Jeep and go

[14:04] somewhere so yeah we going to go get my

[14:06] Jeep and then we'll be

[14:08] off um probably just going to compile my

[14:12] video before I leave and just let that

[14:13] upload on the

[14:15] way this the next chapter of my life is

[14:19] very profound there's a lot that's going

[14:21] on that I haven't talked about um I do

[14:25] talk about on my memb only channel so if

[14:26] you're interested check that out

[14:30] I have one person subscribed so far and

[14:32] I wanted to thank this person because

[14:36] propane today thank you you made my life

[14:38] easier today you really

[14:40] did

[14:44] um there's a lot going on that I just

[14:46] feel

[14:48] like requires a payLo so if you're

[14:51] willing to pay it cuz we' been follow my

[14:53] journey and it matters to you it's there

Summary

rswfire prepares to leave Cape Blanco State Park on New Year's Day, dealing with flooding at his campsite and multiple storms throughout the week. He performs roof maintenance in the rain, drives his RV to town for fuel and propane, and prepares to relocate north to a new campground where he will be volunteering.

**Key activities include:**

- Clearing debris from RV roof after four storms

- Navigating flooded campsite conditions

- Driving RV to Port Orford for fuel and propane in high winds

- Walking to cliff edge for final view of the area

- Preparing for relocation to northern campground

**Technical challenges:**

- Phone damage from 80 mph winds affecting audio and camera

- Strong winds making RV driving stressful

- Core muscle soreness limiting physical activities

**YouTube interaction:** Responds to troll comment about monetization status, explaining that 500 subscribers qualifies for membership monetization. References his member-only channel with one current subscriber who helped fund today's propane purchase.

**Physical condition:** Still recovering from core muscle injury sustained on mountain, limiting hiking activities including planned lighthouse visit. Reports being in top 6-8% of Samsung Health app users for his age group.

**Transition context:** Describes this as starting "the next chapter of my life" with anticipation about meeting new people at the volunteer position. Plans to explore northern areas and lighthouses he hasn't visited yet.
