There must be something about water that calms the inner person because the sights and sounds of the ocean are so refreshing to me. The town, restaurant, and coffee are icing on the day. Little Joey is always such a delight to watch. He's such a cutie!

Your vlog was like "visiting Santa Cruz again!" It's been about 6 years since being there. I used to vanlife there as well. SC is where it seems real vampires live! Plus, WestCliff is my favorite "city" beachwalk area, especially around the Surfing Museum Lighthouse, although that 2.5 mile whinding beach sidewalk has SO MANY great places to relax. Yeah...in 23 years of vanlife, I got the knock 2x in SC over a 4, 5 year stretch. I don't even like "1 knock" much less 2!!! In 23 years... I have only had 3 knocks....2 were in SC. Each time though, the authorities were calm. Great vlog Sunshine Girl🌻💥

Your opening scene, heading to Safeway, that brown/cream color van, it was still there yesterday. Saw many many many nomad vans all around Santa Cruz. A few had all sorts of gear tied on top, front and rear. Good that your van doesn't have such appearance. Be sure to stop at the bakery in Pescadero on your way north!

It's getting up into the 70's and 80's here in CT. You don't have to use a cover at night anymore. It would be nice to make a few trips, but my a/c doesn't want to work, and I have a little dog. Someday, I might run into you, just not now.

This has been a beautiful place for you, but for some odd reason, I found myself wondering what would be the minimum cost of living there would be. I am not sure why I even thought of it but it is a beautiful place right next to the ocean and I am just curious. Also I heard a rattling noise in your van I have not noticed before. Was there something rolling around? Hey after all the adventures my wife and I have followed you on I guess by now I have the need to help watch out for you. I don't want you to be somewhere on the highway or a place unsafe and something break or come loose.
