Welcome Sign Stealth Camping

This is the official launch of the new #merch store, there are some new designs some classic ones and they're doing a limited time free shipping promotion for me when you get 2 or more apparel items!
Anyways, all that aside I went stealth camping in a small plot of trees behind a welcome sign. I've been trying to camp behind this sign for quite some time and finally, the timing and weather worked out for me! Was a decent night, road noise is expected of course but it made for an interesting night!

    I used to live near an ambulance hub, (Depot?) every time I heard the sirens I said a prayer for them. Basically asking God to protect the workers, and to give them skill, and traveling mercies to arrive at the scene and hospital safely. And of course for the one/s who needed the urgent aid that they would be able to get the help and care that was needed. Now I live closer to the hospital because of my medical needs, but still hear them in the distance. Recently I have been blessed and owe my life to an ambulance team that I have no idea who they were or what they looked like when getting hit with acute adrenal failure. I couldn't see even with my eyes open and they had to hassle me to respond in the smallest way. It was only a 2 mile ride, but they got me into the ER all prepped and ready to get emergency medicine pumped right in, on time. I was able to walk away from the hospital 6 days later with no permanent damage. So thank you very much for your hard work, and I hope that you know that you are loved. Statistically it's impossible to save everyone, but you do so much good for the many people you are able to save and help. You and your co-workers are a blessing to others in need. May you enjoy rest and relaxation on your down time, and be able to take care of yourself.

    Thanks, Steve! I used to be a professional first responder when I was younger for both an ambulance company and for the fire department and I appreciate your thoughts for the situation at the other end of those calls. Now, I always keep a hefty first aid kit and help anyone I stumble upon who needs it since I'm medically-trained because I've been on the other side of those calls and, as fast as we can get there to help, help never feels like it comes quickly enough when you really need it and I can remember how good those sirens sound when you know they're coming to help you.

    Hey Steve! Thanks for the shout-out to first responders. I'm a 911 dispatcher and love to watch your videos during downtime on night shift. My whole job consists of listening to people in their worst moments (relatives dying, witnessing cardiac arrests and giving them cpr instructions, drug overdoses, car accidents, domestic violence, shootings, etc.). But we also take a lot of abuse. When someone doesn't do their job correctly, we get cussed out and abused. We get tons of prank calls. We get treated like scum by police officers, EMS, and fire fighters. I've been doing this for 7 years and the world is getting worse and worse every day. I've been depressed lately, but videos like yours make my day just a little bit better. I hope you're doing better today!

    Your explanation of the learning curve is spot on! Every new camper or even army recruit packs so much stuff, that they end up not really enjoying a lot of it, because they end up exhausted and having to search that seemingly bottomless backpack. Over time you learn to pack a bare minimum, which will you through 99% of situations. My list for roughly a week: - Sleeping bag (non-compressed because it's connected to a bivi) - Sleeping mat (Very light, just meant as a water barrier) - Underwear - Socks (extras) - Tarp - 15m paracord This is it really... I've slept like a baby through hurricane weather with that kit. I live in a temperate climate, it's wet constantly... But the bivi is optional, it's just an easy solution to the water problem - saves me time and allows me to stay dry on lower ground. But to each their own, some pack like mules - which is fine, we all enjoy different things.
