Driving South for Adult Store and Oregon Dunes Exploration

rswfire is mobile in his RV, currently staying at a campground for January. Weather is rainy with intermittent clearing. His phone has charging issues due to moisture warning. He has limited funds ($200) but is making purchases he considers investments in pleasure. He has ongoing volunteer commitments lined up through March and possibly May.

[0:01] I decided to head south today a very

[0:03] good reason for that we're heading into

[0:05] Northbend hban Rich up here this is a

[0:10] nice

[0:11] view love

[0:13] this so there's this adult store right

[0:16] on the 101 in in Cay that I passed a

[0:19] bunch of times so I decided to go there

[0:20] this morning pick up some

[0:22] toys you

[0:24] know case I men need their toys I don't

[0:27] have a partner so going to get some toys

[0:30] I know people would want you to feel

[0:31] ashamed of stuff like that there's no

[0:33] reason to me have

[0:36] fun I'm going to be early they don't

[0:39] open until 10 it's only 9:20 right now

[0:41] I'll probably get their own 9:30 look at

[0:43] this guy trying to pass me on the right

[0:45] what a [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ]

[0:48] you

[0:50] um what a [ __ ] [ __ ] I got to Hae

[0:53] people there's no patience in the world

[0:56] anywayss I don't know what I'm doing

[0:58] after that it's

[1:01] uh I could had North but you know I come

[1:04] South now so maybe we go to the beach

[1:06] it's very rainy today though so I'm

[1:09] going to look at the map when I get

[1:10] there just s in the parking lot waiting

[1:12] for them to open so that's that's what

[1:13] I'm trying to get

[1:15] to and I'll make plans after

[1:19] that and here we go I love this

[1:26] bridge we're going too fast let us slow

[1:29] down

[1:31] I'm going to ask somebody while I'm here

[1:33] whenever I come here at night I've come

[1:35] here for Mexican food a couple times

[1:38] there's a whole bunch of green lights on

[1:39] the water they are just so pretty I

[1:42] think it might be an airport but maybe

[1:43] it's a harbor or maybe it's a um maybe

[1:46] it's a local park you know I'm going to

[1:49] find out today if I

[1:55] can so very nice day if you like rain

[1:59] I don't mind it I like rain but I really

[2:03] wanted to commun with the ocean today

[2:05] this is the river this is not the ocean

[2:07] let's be clear about that this bridge

[2:09] takes us over a

[2:12] river very big

[2:14] river not sure which one that

[2:17] is keep

[2:23] forgetting so but the ocean is very

[2:26] close this river runs into the ocean

[2:28] somehow some way

[2:31] or where is the ocean it's on this side

[2:34] I

[2:35] think yeah it's guy be on this side

[2:38] somewhere the ocean's out there heading

[2:40] into North V for the record yes I am

[2:44] buying toys with the $200 I have left

[2:47] obviously I'm not spending all of it you

[2:49] can judge my choices or you can flow

[2:51] with it this is a thing I want that's

[2:54] going to bring bring me pleasure and

[2:56] make me happy for who knows how long

[2:59] it's a very good Investments check that

[3:01] Hill out in the distance we need to go

[3:03] that way one day look how high up that

[3:05] goes we got to drive up there and see

[3:08] what's going on over there no we're

[3:11] going to the left what's up there we

[3:14] need to

[3:16] know we got a giant boat over here

[3:19] that's so cool God I want to be on that

[3:21] thing just to go all the way up there

[3:23] princess Pacific ooh what a cool name we

[3:27] got to be here one of these days there's

[3:29] another boat down the road a little way

[3:31] as I noticed so there's two of them

[3:33] maybe we can get on one of those we made

[3:36] it we're at the adult fun center this

[3:39] very shady looking place here AI told me

[3:43] that they has a downstairs well techno I

[3:46] found out from reviews first and then I

[3:49] asked AI about it there's a downstairs

[3:51] where people go and they have sex and

[3:53] it's

[3:54] legal I'm very disgusting I would never

[3:57] do that in a million years like that is

[3:59] the grossest thing ever but like wow

[4:02] like that's a thing that actually

[4:03] happens in America so pretty

[4:07] fascinating all right so this picture

[4:10] here confirms that those lights I was

[4:12] seeing are an airport I had a feeling so

[4:15] nothing to really see there just pretty

[4:17] lights across from the bridge there's a

[4:20] whole area of Dunes you can see those on

[4:22] the map on the other side of that is the

[4:24] beach and the ocean I just got to figure

[4:26] out how to get over there I kind of know

[4:27] cuz I looked this up before but those

[4:29] Dunes look kind of interesting too

[4:31] there's a couple of places there we can

[4:32] rent ATVs and stuff like that so um

[4:36] might be worth just going over there and

[4:37] looking around and stuff I mean we're

[4:40] very close to it so to my camera I just

[4:42] thinking that propritor he saw me

[4:44] looking down at the stairs I'm like cuz

[4:46] I'm like I know what's going on down

[4:47] there you know I'm just looking cuz I'm

[4:49] curious and this man's like you can just

[4:52] tell like you you want to go down there

[4:54] like he didn't say that he was

[4:56] like I remember what he said with man

[4:58] that is way he applied like he's like he

[5:00] just go down there that's a popular

[5:02] place but I the first went there like

[5:04] who could possibly have been there

[5:05] should have asked him though was anyone

[5:07] attractor go down there you know like I

[5:10] was like yeah I know what goes on down

[5:11] there I saw some reviews and he was like

[5:13] oh reviews like he got a little bit

[5:15] nervous about that I don't know why is

[5:17] legal and I'm just like he's asking me

[5:20] what are these reviews I'm like they're

[5:21] discreet you know I just I know what's

[5:23] going on down there because of these

[5:26] reviews he's this older man who's just

[5:28] like he's

[5:31] like he reminds me of like like the one

[5:34] gay guy from um the bird cage he's just

[5:37] all fed up with cusb in the rain and

[5:40] he's like I'm selling this place been

[5:42] here for decades I'm going back to

[5:44] California all my friends are like this

[5:46] man is just like I'm like can I just

[5:49] shop in peace like I'm trying to figure

[5:50] out what kind of dildo I want you know

[5:52] or pocket py like I this man just

[5:56] checked I'm like I got what I wanted

[6:00] then play with them then maybe oh look

[6:02] at the rain stopped oh we got to stay

[6:05] outside now no more

[6:09] rain well it's sprinkling but it's not

[6:13] raining we got to go

[6:15] somewhere anyway maybe I'll think about

[6:17] it or just go down there and see what it

[6:20] looks like you don't have to do

[6:22] anything see what's going on down there

[6:25] what do they have TVs with porn on them

[6:27] or what like what's happening down there

[6:29] I bet they have little Ms oh my God I

[6:32] bet you they

[6:33] do but no have to be attractive like no

[6:38] it's a random stranger that I don't even

[6:41] know what looks like

[6:45] no maybe I don't

[6:48] know almost back all right a little tiny

[6:53] bit of way left still let me just

[6:55] clarify oh this hiking trail I really

[6:57] want to see this hiking trail maybe we

[7:00] won't go there today let me look that up

[7:02] on the map CU it's very close to the

[7:03] campground that's like right very close

[7:07] so this one it says yell Creek

[7:09] Campground so I'll look for that on the

[7:10] map Oregon dunes natural Recreation Area

[7:13] there somewhere very close to that

[7:15] there's this Trail a very big trail hat

[7:17] so I'm very curious about

[7:21] it okay um so I just going to say

[7:24] like I'm open to new experiences like

[7:27] you know life is short like why not have

[7:30] some

[7:31] fun even when some people thinks it's

[7:33] strange or they want to judge it or

[7:35] whatever like I really don't give a [ __ ]

[7:38] what Society

[7:40] thinks if you can you know un touch your

[7:43] edges edges are important it's important

[7:46] to test

[7:47] them so yeah oh I bet they live in a

[7:51] nice place up there on that

[7:54] hill so where whe are

[8:00] very quick um you know you go from being

[8:03] 55 M an hour down to zero to get to this

[8:11] Campground cuz everybody's tailgating

[8:14] you cuz they're [ __ ]

[8:17] [ __ ] all

[8:19] right I am home my home for

[8:25] January no rain we got lucky maybe we

[8:28] could go I going to check that trail hat

[8:30] out I bet William M tugman State Park

[8:35] they named The Parks after random Park

[8:36] Service people so they're not like

[8:38] they're not famous Jesus that scared the

[8:40] crap out of

[8:42] me my thone can't be hooked up for some

[8:45] reason it's saying there's a moisture

[8:46] warning when I plug it into my car my

[8:48] Jeep I don't understand that cuz there's

[8:50] no moisture I have my vape sit on I

[8:53] think maybe the magnet made

[8:55] it did something but even I've been

[8:58] waiting a while still not working I

[9:00] can't charge my phone can't listen to my

[9:02] music oh there's the woman

[9:05] [Music]

[9:07] um let's just drive by I am parked it's

[9:12] not it was I thought it was the van

[9:13] lifer that um I've been talking to and

[9:16] just stck down social at the moment so

[9:18] wasn't her though it was a different

[9:19] person different band lifer we're going

[9:21] to go play with some

[9:22] toys okay had some fun had some lunch

[9:27] looked at the trail it's very close

[9:30] and it takes you through a forest and

[9:32] then to some Dunes eventually probably

[9:34] to the ocean um didn't

[9:37] didn't read anything that said the ocean

[9:39] just doed so um and I don't want to hike

[9:43] too much cuz my core muscles are still

[9:45] healing but we'll hike a little bit so

[9:47] we'll go find this Trail it's a circular

[9:49] Trail so it might not go to the ocean

[9:51] actually but we'll find out more when we

[9:53] get there cuz there will be signs and

[9:54] things to look at so yeah let's head out

[9:58] we are here

[10:00] John dback noon's trail

[10:07] head like to see their

[10:12] Campground there one person

[10:15] here making starts there I guess there

[10:18] are the informational

[10:21] signs find not what's going on here so

[10:25] that place requires a fee I got to go up

[10:27] to Reedsport to buy an annual

[10:29] pass could have done it electronically

[10:32] but I'd rather have something on my

[10:33] vehicle make the very clear that that

[10:35] thing is paid

[10:37] for um there are two different kinds of

[10:40] passes one of them covered the state

[10:41] parks but I get those for free so that's

[10:44] not

[10:47] helpful I don't know I'm going to need

[10:51] it though cuz all this stuff around here

[10:52] is all national

[10:54] forest like literally I think they

[10:56] control all the dunes or something

[11:00] I've seen a lot of their stuff

[11:01] everywhere I've been going up north here

[11:03] so we might as well just get that over

[11:05] with CU I planed to do it anyways we got

[11:08] some wild weather

[11:12] today limited

[11:15] visibility oh yeah I to turn my lights

[11:22] on all right I got my pass I'm at a nice

[11:26] lady there God that thing's annoying

[11:28] it's cuz I can't plug my phone in oh my

[11:30] God

[11:32] anyways so I met a nice lady there I

[11:35] asked her about volunteer opportunity

[11:37] she gave me a application to filled out

[11:39] and a phone number someone to call who

[11:42] coordinates all that cuz I have stuff

[11:44] lining up from

[11:48] well Mar up till the end of March and

[11:51] maybe until May because I emailed

[11:53] someone yesterday last night about April

[11:57] May my phone rings a lot

[12:00] so April May I might be at another

[12:03] campgr and just you know I haven't heard

[12:05] back from that but anyway so between

[12:08] April and May I'll either be there or

[12:10] maybe I'll be with the National Forest

[12:11] Service here on the dunes or maybe you

[12:15] know over the summer or something so I

[12:17] got to learn more about that that would

[12:20] be cool it expands to different places

[12:22] that I've volunteering for still have to

[12:26] find

[12:26] hardville I think I ever even noticed

[12:29] this sign here wow I don't think we're

[12:32] going 10 miles though this is the other

[12:34] place in my management

[12:37] area um I'm lighthouse we do need to go

[12:40] check that out I've seen it it's pretty

[12:42] it's a cool Lighthouse there's all kind

[12:44] of stuff happening there

[12:47] too um the Coast Guard is there and the

[12:50] county is what controls the lighthouse

[12:53] and the state park of course there's a

[12:55] whole lot happening there but we're

[12:57] going to go back to that trail head

[13:00] I don't we're not 10 miles from that I

[13:01] don't think hope not guess we could be

[13:06] though there's a little bit of a

[13:08] distance between the two

[13:10] parts well it is what it is I guess we

[13:13] are back we got our PA we know we're

[13:17] getting in

[13:20] trouble I don't see any

[13:22] like that sign doesn't tell you about

[13:25] the map there's no map on that sign

[13:26] there

[13:29] okay please stay on trail where's the

[13:33] trail I know there's one this way so

[13:35] it's probably where we got to

[13:37] go oh okay so that billboard was all

[13:40] about pay us all kinds of different ways

[13:44] there's another billboard up

[13:47] here all right hiker Trail

[13:52] no yep hiker

[13:56] Tria closed

[13:59] Motor Vehicles horses and pack stock

[14:07] okay there are probably some signs there

[14:09] there were probably a map there but not

[14:12] anymore so okay we're here we can get to

[14:17] the campground from here

[14:19] okay interpretive Loop and then to the

[14:22] beach oh my God we can get to the ocean

[14:23] from here at least 4 hours for the Six

[14:27] Mile round trimp

[14:29] dramatic dunes and tree

[14:31] Islands oh

[14:34] [ __ ] let's

[14:37] go

[14:39] um oh I love this

[14:42] bridge 4 hours in the

[14:46] rain maybe I really want to see this

[14:49] Campground though cuz could end up

[14:51] volunteering there one

[14:53] day might be a really nice I like the

[14:56] National Forest campground they're very

[14:58] rustic usually

[14:59] I took I was on quite a few on my way

[15:01] here um from Kentucky so I've seen some

[15:05] pretty bad showers too or actually not

[15:07] even showers just yeah showers the

[15:11] worst truly the worst one I've ever seen

[15:14] with the Mark Twain National Forest

[15:17] so oh this is going to be nice it's been

[15:20] a while since I was on a hiking trail

[15:22] not on the

[15:25] ocean oh this wonderful all right

[15:30] all the work they put into

[15:38] this got some

[15:40] elevations I should probably pull up a

[15:42] map on guide GPS and download that get

[15:44] an offline version just in case didn't

[15:47] exactly become come

[15:50] prepared I normally wouldn't though

[15:53] but now I know I'm I'm not Invincible

[15:57] cuz my core muscles

[16:00] maybe plan a little bit

[16:02] better this is

[16:05] awesome so if we go straight we're going

[16:07] to end up in the

[16:09] campground or we could turn left here

[16:11] and go towards the

[16:13] beach

[16:16] probably let's find out according to the

[16:19] weather app there's no more rain during

[16:23] the day not until tonight so we might

[16:25] head out

[16:26] there like I can tell my corn muscles

[16:29] are still

[16:30] sore I would want to go slow doesn't

[16:33] mean I won't do it just I want to do a

[16:35] little bit

[16:37] slower so yeah we'll go check this

[16:39] Campground out we'll try to get to the

[16:42] beach it said sixmile round trip I think

[16:44] it said so we're about 3 miles something

[16:47] about

[16:48] rain so this is where to

[16:50] come now I got to pass every day I could

[16:53] come here way better than that

[16:57] Lake long track out to the ocean [ __ ]

[17:00] yeah if you look closely in the distance

[17:03] you can see close up on liners all over

[17:08] the

[17:09] place which means they're dealing with

[17:11] the same problem we do with the state

[17:13] parks poverty and

[17:16] homelessness it would be a lot cheaper

[17:18] to stay here probably I

[17:20] think especially for The Rustic sites

[17:22] that don't have electric and water and

[17:24] all of that give them a safe place to

[17:26] be they'd have

[17:29] very basic amenities like they'd have

[17:31] access to water somewhere on the

[17:33] campground they' probably have access to

[17:35] showers and restrooms and well that's

[17:38] basically

[17:40] it but that there that was a sign that

[17:43] they're definitely dealing with the

[17:45] crisis one that's going to keep

[17:49] growing I think I think there was a

[17:51] survey or something that just recently

[17:54] came out that said that um homelessness

[17:56] had

[17:56] risen dramatically in the last year it's

[18:01] going to keep getting

[18:03] worse and I'm going to be out here

[18:05] helping as much as I can this sign says

[18:08] would you believe you are standing on a

[18:09] sand

[18:10] dune the ancient Dunes are hidden by the

[18:12] forest follow the trail to discover

[18:14] Dunes of all ages and shapes you'll be

[18:16] rewarded with the tallest Dunes on the

[18:18] coast that is cool so it's that

[18:21] phenomenon we talked about

[18:24] where things eventually grow on the

[18:26] dunes but they turn this this one into

[18:28] to a forest

[18:31] wow so it's the main trail

[18:37] there okay we can take this we're going

[18:40] to go check out the the campground first

[18:42] I saw that

[18:44] pond so this might be a kind of a small

[18:47] Campground some are quite big I don't

[18:50] know we'll see we don't know how far up

[18:51] goes the northern portion of the loop is

[18:53] easy with the compact Ser General the

[18:55] interpretive Loop you know what

[18:57] volunteers would do that

[19:00] um they were to take people on the walks

[19:01] on the interpretive Loops they're called

[19:03] interpretive hosts or something like

[19:06] that we're going to go check this

[19:08] Campground out wow this Forest has a

[19:11] very nice feeling this Campground there

[19:13] is a

[19:14] Vibe this is a wonderful

[19:20] place if

[19:22] I I wasn't even looking to camp at

[19:25] places like this on the coast cuz

[19:27] there's so many state parks but but

[19:29] this I would want to be here this is

[19:38] wonderful so that's drinking water there

[19:41] the sites don't

[19:43] have um they're very primitive it might

[19:47] just be this loop I looked it up on Guy

[19:49] GPS we're on one Loop there's another

[19:51] loop the other way couldn't tell it

[19:53] might have been closed though cuz there

[19:54] was a gate

[19:56] blocking um but I don't know if there

[19:57] was a different entrance so we'll find

[20:01] out and here we've got

[20:04] restrooms don't know if the

[20:08] showers let's find

[20:14] out I'm back by

[20:16] sighting October

[20:24] 1st no just the

[20:27] restroom um

[20:30] primitive there should be a shower

[20:36] somewhere oh this is

[20:41] awesome

[20:43] peaceful some of them are back ins sight

[20:45] some of them are pull through they've

[20:47] got some nice pull through ones not that

[20:49] far off the road

[20:52] but still

[20:54] nice I would stay here but I actually

[20:58] I have obligations now

[21:01] wow volunteering for the state parks

[21:04] like I live on

[21:06] them oh man I would love to be

[21:10] here I'm going to keep looking

[21:14] around you can see how it progressively

[21:16] becomes more sand

[21:18] dunes they're right over here

[21:20] too you know just like that just left

[21:23] the

[21:25] forest I think we might enter more

[21:27] forests sand dunes and

[21:30] Forest so this is going to be

[21:34] fascinating oh

[21:37] wow go that way this way you can see

[21:42] people's Footprints up over

[21:44] there um almost like you're in a

[21:47] desert damn you could get

[21:51] lost I feel like you could get lost for

[21:54] sure

[21:59] that's say Beach tomb Beach

[22:02] Windows all over the

[22:05] place that is a steep climb over

[22:08] there we're going to take the easier

[22:10] route like these other people

[22:14] have

[22:15] but there a sign over

[22:20] there okay and I could look at guy a

[22:24] GPS let's go see what the sun says

[22:27] anyways

[22:29] hiking on Sand is a little bit

[22:32] different I actually know because of my

[22:35] core muscle injury that it's a little

[22:38] bit harder on your

[22:39] core learned that from

[22:42] AI well from the time I went to Pistol

[22:44] River it kind of told me

[22:48] then cuz your core muscles are always

[22:50] stabilizing

[22:52] you and you're shifting on Sand so it's

[22:55] constantly working

[22:59] so we just want to take it

[23:00] slow we're not going to let that be a

[23:03] reason not to do this we're just going

[23:04] to take it

[23:05] slow this could be an interesting

[23:08] place okay that's the way back trail

[23:11] head this could to be an interesting

[23:13] place to come every

[23:16] morning way better than going to the

[23:19] lake we could probably Walk This Way and

[23:22] up

[23:23] there I love this just pick your path

[23:31] so

[23:33] cool we're up the first

[23:36] June

[23:38] wow done which way to go where you're

[23:41] going to find this ocean

[23:46] amazing that is a steep

[23:49] clim oh

[23:52] man all the

[23:55] sand

[23:57] incredible when I was a kid I hiked from

[24:00] Sand Dunes with my family in

[24:04] Michigan near the great

[24:06] lakes and I just kind of booked it I

[24:08] think I prob always that way oh several

[24:11] Dunes in front of them and then all of a

[24:14] sudden I realized I was by

[24:16] myself oh man I'm pretty sure I cried

[24:20] first time ever feeling alone you know

[24:23] like um I didn't have my mom I didn't

[24:26] have anybody I thought I for some reason

[24:29] I thought I was I'm almost sure I

[24:32] thought I was abandoned up there like

[24:35] they were like I didn't realize they

[24:37] were behind me you know they'd catch up

[24:39] somehow I just saw myself in the middle

[24:41] of these dunes and I'm like oh [ __ ] I'm

[24:45] alone I think about that not often very

[24:48] rarely I've never

[24:51] really

[24:53] um never talked about it never really

[24:56] processed it or anything just

[24:59] it's just a thing that happened to me

[25:01] once wonder if that shaped me at

[25:05] all it's pretty windy up

[25:08] here I don't know what it'll sound like

[25:10] on my camera but hopefully you can hear

[25:14] me

[25:16] wow somewhere over there is the

[25:19] ocean we got to find her if we

[25:22] can all right we're not going to make

[25:25] this journey today I let me show you

[25:29] so this is my view we're up high and

[25:33] that is quite a steep drop like look at

[25:36] that man that's actually kind of scary

[25:38] to look at holy

[25:41] crap well we're supposed to be heading

[25:43] this way maybe that

[25:47] way this is the way we

[25:50] came there's nothing we're in a desert

[25:53] made of

[25:54] sand made of ocean

[25:56] sand with this steep drop right there

[25:59] like

[26:02] wow man I would love to drive my Jeep

[26:05] out here holy [ __ ] that'd be

[26:07] fun well you can tell that's not that

[26:10] you can't do that here but well you know

[26:11] we're going to be able to do that soon

[26:13] we've got this stuff

[26:15] planned but I don't want to keep going

[26:17] because I don't have my battery charger

[26:19] my phone's at 30% if something happened

[26:22] you know I track my hikes and I know

[26:24] that uses a lot of battery power all I

[26:27] brought was a Pepsi with me you know I

[26:29] didn't really come prepared for this so

[26:30] we're not going to do anything stupid

[26:33] but I think the ocean's over there

[26:36] somewhere um behind that fog I see this

[26:38] line that could be the ocean or it could

[26:41] just be a sand

[26:43] dune so we'll be back maybe

[26:48] tomorrow we'll retrace my steps back and

[26:52] call a day cuz yeah we'll do this

[26:56] responsibly

[26:58] very cool though this is so neat this is

[27:01] not the kind of hiking I do so this is

[27:03] different this is

[27:06] interesting whole new thing to

[27:09] explore look at this Sovereign tree

[27:12] sapling in the middle of nothing but

[27:14] sand

[27:15] dunes it's all by itself and this is how

[27:19] it starts that right there it says I'm

[27:23] going to grow here I'm going to create a

[27:25] forest you just wait

[27:28] and that sapling says you can witness me

[27:30] you can watch me

[27:32] grow but you cannot prescribe me advice

[27:35] cuz I'm not asking for I got

[27:38] this you see the

[27:44] difference look at that little

[27:48] guy you don't want to bother

[28:42] you I welome no worries

[28:47] he all

[28:49] right he

[28:52] fun he hurt me

Energetic Signature grounded exploration

Field State integration

Orientation toward embodied sovereignty

Summary

rswfire drives south to Coos Bay to visit an adult store, purchasing toys with limited funds ($200 remaining). He interacts with the store proprietor who mentions a downstairs area where people have sex legally. After shopping, he obtains a National Forest pass in Reedsport and inquires about volunteer opportunities. He explores the John Dellenback Dunes Trail, hiking through forest that transitions to sand dunes. The trail leads toward the ocean but he turns back due to low phone battery (30%) and lack of preparation. He observes the campground, noting its primitive sites and peaceful atmosphere. During the dune hike, he reflects on a childhood memory of getting lost in sand dunes in Michigan. He encounters wildlife and observes a tree sapling growing alone in the dunes, which he describes as sovereign and self-sufficient.
