A Slow Weekend Camping in the Arizona Desert

Last rodeo written on my back window I've never tried this before I met you Here we go into the wildness unknown You seem to shift what I thought that I knew Both of us changing our patterns With every spin You're cool white as gold Glass bits and pieces from planets That I've never been Fixated on every new shape you're making Grass ring here at a million Mixing asteroid blues Cross between the summer spring Welcome back to my channel if you're new here My name is Ash and we are currently in the process of moving into our camper van But I think it's time to make some breakfast I am starving I have been currently obsessed with making avocado toast I go through phases where I eat something constantly and then I can't stand it And I went through this phase I think like six years ago when everyone else went through this phase And I ate it so much that I started hating it But now I'm back into this phase and I'm loving it I'm very happy So I made some avocado toast Then Fitz and I are going to go on a short walk And I'm very excited about it because it is beautiful outside And like what more could you ask for? We haven't been camping since New Mexico at this point And we have been dying to get to go camping Because our neighbor decided to start doing a remodel on his front yard And there's a lot of like jackhammers and shovels and scraping of rocks And it's just loud So we decided midweek we're just going to head out and go enjoy some quiet And this is where we are Had a very good morning so far But the dog is hyper so we are going on a walk He is so excited to be back camping He was freaking out last night when we pulled in And he realized that we were camping And all morning all he wanted to do was come outside So he's been outside most of the day Just on a long lead And digging every hole he could think of But we're now going on a walk Because it is 70 degrees out And there's no sun Oddly it's all clouds And so it's honestly kind of cold Which is so weird to say But it's beautiful I'm in the desert I'm honestly just really happy That being said, I know it's pretty early in the video But I do want to tell you guys Thank you so much for all the interactions That you guys are doing The likes, the comments, subscribing Honestly it like Freaks me out to see All of the Traction or Attention that my videos are getting I woke up this morning and I had 4 new subscribers and that's insane I'm sure to somebody else 4 is like nothing But like I'm just camping I'm just living my life like I always have And now I'm just filming it And you guys seem to like it I greatly appreciate that, it's just crazy to me Yeah, thank you so much I really do appreciate it I'm genuinely baffled at the fact That people care We're just going to enjoy our cute little walk Get some energy out of this Australian shepherd Which I don't know if I've mentioned before His name is Fitz Which is really hard to understand For some people, or maybe it's just my family But it's F-I-T-Z, Fitz He was named after the main character From The Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb And he is an 8 month old Australian shepherd We also have a cat who travels with us But you don't see a lot of him because honestly He just likes hanging out in the camper and not moving Staying cuddled up Antagonizing the dog, honestly So you don't see much of him because I mean, no offense I love my cat, his name is Chunk But he doesn't do much, and that's fine My dog is walking like this Because he's a herding dog, that's why I keep looking down It's hard to get him to walk in a straight line sometimes Because he is a herding dog And when he gets into zigzags, you're going to trip over him Is anybody else out there obsessed with rocks? As a kid, I truly thought At one point that I was going to just study rocks And tell people about rocks As a job Like that was one of my dreams It went teacher, rocks, volcanoes When I discovered that volcanoes were a thing My school library had like Three books on volcanoes And I read them Over and over and over Volcanoes and rocks were the only ones I read But they were picture books, of course So they didn't count for much So I never had AR points Are we going down this bud? Pretty steep here Well, he did Hey Fitz, hold on Note to self, don't ask your dog Just assume he's going to take you with him So now that Fitz and I have enjoyed a very nice walk I think it'd be the perfect day to just sit And read And enjoy how peaceful and quiet this place is Because honestly, how often do you get this? My boyfriend may lose things But I forget everything So Going on a cute hike To the mountains behind us Because they're really pretty And I can't tell how close they are And I forgot my SD card But isn't that really pretty over there? Now that I have an SD card, you guys can go So all the rocks we've been walking on Are quartz And some of them Are legit massive This whole thing is quartz That's insane So does that mean these pieces that are more pink Are they rose quartz? Because if so, that's pretty cool This has now turned into a rock account Look how cool that one is Hey You couldn't see it coming You might have thought it Ancient Hey There's no right or wrong It's about trying Find the silver Rain You'll name Lives and cries You'll have The time it does You missed it You didn't see it Cause I'm waiting for You You missed it I am going to end this video here Thank you guys so much for watching This trip has been so relaxing And so needed, even though it's not something We planned for ourselves, we planned it because My neighbor had construction going and it was quieter To leave. It still ended up being a perfect trip Instead of staying the two days that we had planned To stay, we ended up staying three just because We were enjoying it so much. I honestly could Have stayed four or longer just because it was So nice, but we're currently trying To see if there's somewhere else we'd like to go Since it's going to be in the 80s here To see if there's anywhere else we'd like to camp And see while we have the time But that's going to be, like, later We're not doing that anytime soon. We've got things we have to do At the house before we can do that If you are watching this, this is your reminder to Get outside. Go for a walk Go to the park, read a book outside Color outside, journal outside Play with your dog, go outside And just enjoy the quiet Put down your to-do list Do your chores later Take a break I feel like we are all very much into hustle culture Where we think we have to constantly be productive And that's what brings value to ourselves as a person Is the fact that we've done all of these Accomplishments today, and it's not necessary You know, you can take care of yourself and have a slow day And do your chores tomorrow You don't have to have this massive chore list That you have to do all in one day. You can break it down Into different days. It's so nice to just Disconnect and forget things sometimes I know I'm a person who's really bad about that I spent the day before we Camped, like, cleaning the camper completely And then cleaning the house completely And then packing everything, and we got out there And I was exhausted. Thank you guys for watching I hope you did enjoy this video. I am very thankful To everyone who has been Commenting and liking and subscribing To the channel. It's honestly just Still blowing my mind that that's a thing If you are someone who lives in Arizona Or, like, around the state of Arizona And there are places you think that we should Camp soon, because it's still Warm here. Like, we're in the 70s to the 80s most days, but if we go Too far north, it gets freezing And they're getting snow, and I can't I can't do that. I mean I could, but, like, I truly don't have The clothing for it. I've lived in Arizona For eight years. Like, I don't have the clothing to Be in snow. So if there's somewhere that you guys like To go during this time of the year Let me know in the comments below. But thank you guys For watching, and I will see you in the next one Bye
