Fun fact - just over a year ago during one of last winter’s big storms, multiple massive waves rose up and broke over the cliff, smashed through the double doors on the west side of the lighthouse building, and flooded the gift shop and museum on the ground floor of the lighthouse. The ocean doesn’t mess around, that’s for sure. The lighthouse has an amazing group of volunteers and with the help of State Parks was repaired and reopened in a little over three weeks.

Wow, you took me back big time. I grew up in Fort Bragg and Mendocino. Also lived in Caspar. Went to school in both Fort Bragg and Mendocino. That was the 60's and I'm 64 now. Those were the hippy days. Lol. So many memories and still have a few old friends there. Looks a bit different, lol. Forgot to mention I lived in Humboldt from 89-2005 and moved to Hawaii. Love Humboldt, too.

The town was different then. My Grandpa built a house on Park View Drive in 1974, north of town across from MacKerricher. We are from the bay area, but we still own the house up there. I was conceived in Fort Bragg and my parents lived there from '81-'83. Nobody would trust you if they didn't know you back then, very trendy now. I miss going up there when I was growing up, late 80s and early 90s. Pudding creek was my jam!

Hello Jamie

Enjoyed making relaxing Journey with you this day Static... Sweet evening 🌄🙋‍♀️☕

I do not know if the foghorns in the USA are the same as the UK but when I lived in Scotland by the coast, I loved the foghorns but they were few and far between, I do miss them though.

I haven’t watched it yet, before I do I came to say I’m elated it’s a long video!! Love them! Thank you.

Hi Scott, I've lived in Mendocino and Little River for 30+ years now and just found your channel. This one caught my eye being in my neck of the woods. Yes, we do have great kind and friendly folks here. Your comment about the friendliness of people seeming somewhat reflected by weather a place needs or is overrun by tourists makes sense. I had lived in the Mendocino Village and when we were overrun by tourists for an extended time it could get wearing on the nerves. That's another story...lol. I've toyed with the idea of Van life for the past 2-3 years so this kind of video is great. So many of the videos I have seen are young folks so it's interesting getting a view from someone with more maturity. The biggest obstacle for me is that I don't like driving too much. I love exploring new places and meeting new people but enjoy being driven... probably why this remains more fantasy than reality, lol. All the housekeeping details are so helpful for the idea of trying van life myself. I found it interesting to hear that garbage receptacles are hard to find nesr the beaches here...had never noticed this. I'm not sure if this is an issue at the beaches but all up and down our coastal area we've had an increase in our bear population and no garbage can is safe from them. (What's our wildlife to do as we humans continue to invade their natural feeding places). Also it makes perfect sense about not going extra miles for something like "free" water, especially with our insane gas prices. I wouldn't have thought how helpful all the little daily details like water, garbage, kinds of shoes, paper towels versus dishcloths, etc. can be. I don't recall any other van lifer I've watched talking about daily Van housekeeping so thank you. I totally relate to not being a morning person and have read articles by neuroscientists who claim our bodies have 3-4 different circadian rhythms and have natural set points. I know I've tried to change my rhythm so many times and have finally given in to being a night owl and not a morning early bird. Speaking of local coffee we have Thanksgiving coffee which is based in Fort Bragg and Big River which relocated to Santa Rosa awhile back. I'm a lover of a strong dark roast and the Big River Mediterranean French Roast is my absolute favorite now. They carry it at both Harvest Markets. You've mentioned coming back here and guessing you might know this but you can get showers for a small fee at Russian Gulch State Park and some beautiful hiking to a pretty waterfall. Thank you for these and looking forward to your trips in Humboldt. Very interesting hearing how food prices are actually cheaper in Humboldt I was born in Arcata and sometimes think about moving back to Arcata or Ferndale, so this is interesting news. A tip for a lid not closing correctly...you can usually use aluminum foil to creare a molded lid and then often the regular lid clamps onto it. And to heck with anyone judging using pre made rice, you do you as long as your not harming anyone. Blessings ❤

Really beautiful shot of the lighthouse.

That was an enjoyable day! I am always breaking your buy local rule. The Fogline coffee was excellent! You are spot on with the smooth finish. The owner Robb was very grateful when I mentioned your review. It’s officially one of my favorites (I tried 3 different ones from them). Thank you 🥳

I smiled when I saw the way you flattened the empty milk carton. I do the same thing. I suppose many other people do, but I've never been there to witness it. My main memory of Fort Bragg was when a girlfriend and I were staying at a B&Bin Mendocino and went to Fort Bragg to ride the Skunk Train. I learned for me train rides are fun for about the first 15 minutes. But you have to ride it to the end. And back. And we should've brought food. Oh well.

Caffeine might well be making you less of a morning person. It's a socially accepted drug so we don't often talk about it as a drug. Caffeine is a stimulant which makes us feel alert and energetic, but on the flip-side, there's also the less talked about rebound fatigue. I used to be a big coffee person too. I'd be desperate for my morning cup to be able to start my day, but now that I don't drink it anymore(due to other health reasons), I must say it is very nice being able to wake up and feel awake rather than needing my fix to get there. You have a higher tolerance for caffeine, as I remember you mentioning you can drink coffee relatively late in the day and still sleep at night, but even though you're able to fall asleep, neuroscientists recommend that we avoid caffeine from 10ish hours before sleeping in order to preserve the quality of our sleep.

Great video by the way scott, I like the chill vibe. Haircut's looking well too! 👍
