Heya! I hope all’s well with you up there (switching into NorCal speak) because it’s been HELLA cold and wet down south! 😉😆 It’s nice to get back to making vids for fun and I’m looking forward to getting back up there later this year! 😄 All the best! 🤗

Thank you - it was an amazing trip and I agree everyone should go! I want to go to Samoa - the primary cost is the flights.. pretty sure I can swing stays with my Clan there which would be amazing too. Some day! (But not today.. 😆)

Ahhh it was actually 2 years ago and I have not made it back yet.. but I’m hoping my lag between visits will be shorter than it was last time, which was almost 6 years! I consider Otavalo a must-stop any time I go.. and just love it there. From what I’ve heard from friends in southern Ecuador, the trouble is mainly in the cities; they‘be been unaffected to date 😅 I’m so glad you found a place to live that you love!! 😄

I’m guessing surfing isn’t a big sport in Africa.. 😆 I always wanted to learn scuba, but snorkeling already makes me feel like I’m suffocating 🙄

Aloha ‘oe!! Just wanted to share that YT offered to translate ‘aloha’ for me, which I thought was hilarious 🤣

@@SuperClassyAdventures At least over here in the Gulf Coast, if you get drilled it’s just sand; not coral 🌊 🪸 🏄‍♂️ 😬

Eeee I hope your choppers are all good! It was tacos so of course it was a good visit 😉😆 although as border quickie day trips go, I don’t think I’d choose toothtown again.. that place is overall pretty depressing with minimal charm

I was back in the hot spring at Holtville to kick off 24 myself! Love that place as weirdly-located as it is.. I just park for free in the free range BLM area on the south side of 8

Thanks Rick 😊 They’ve probably never cleaned or painted that bridge - it’s kind of in the middle of nowhere.. and in a place that gets next to no precipitation but I agree it would look pretty awesome spiffed up!

Super good times! I remember that you went back but I thought you had found some rocks on the butte as well 🤷🏻‍♀️

Wish I’d had some of those for the next campsite we went to 😉😂

@@SuperClassyAdventures a thing to share in a magical place 🍄x

Thank you so much!! These places are so gorgeous the pics just take themselves 😉😆

Thank you so much! 🤗

That sounds miserable - I’m over here complaining about 30 degrees 🥶😆 I’m just coming off a fairly whirlwind round of adventures so hectic start to the new year but at least I did get to start it off in a hot spring ☺️ Happy new year!

@@SuperClassyAdventures Maybe you can see one of the superblooms.

Unless a whole lot more rain happens, I don't think there will be much of a superbloom this year... another storm is on the way right now though so maybe..? Fingers crossed - this area is parched and needs all the rain it can get!

Thanks!

Thank you so much! 😄

Thank you so much, Rick! I hope you and yours had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you all the best in 24!! 😄

Ironically I just took a lady out last week to teach her how to use her poles 😆 I personally prefer the telescoping kind because there are fewer failure points per pole.. I’m currently using Black Diamond ones that are actually the kid poles (I’m short 😂) and have used them for well over 4K miles and they’re still in great shape, even despite saving my ass from hitting the ground on a near-daily basis. Whichever ones you get, don’t cut off the straps like some gram-weenies do - it totally negates their proper use. I hope that helps and happy hiking (and new year!!) 🤗

Took me a minute to work out the name 😂 welcome to YT Recon 😉😁

Hahaa 🐐! It’s a gorgeous area I haven’t spent much time in.. looking forward to getting back to the superstitions again. Glad you enjoyed it 😊

Thank you so much, you lovely Georgia Peach - Merry Christmas to you and all of yours as well!! Can’t wait to catch up with you again my next time around 🤗

Ha - thanks! This is pretty much my version of one of those digital photo frames since I can’t exactly keep a mess of photo albums in the van 😳😆 happy holidays to you too! 😄

He is, thank you so much for asking! And I’m glad someone besides me enjoyed the rando mishmash! 😆🤗

Yes! There are multiple corrals. The water wasn’t turned on when I went though; so I’d be prepared for that. 😬

Some of these desert superblooms kick off in March or even earlier if you really want to escape winter 😉

Thank you so much! I’m actually really behind on vids - this adventure was in September-October 2022. I just hated logging into YT for the longest time because of the masses of horrible comments and messages I could count on receiving from the cult of crawler, but I’ve got probably 40+ more to put out. I’m still adventuring, just in a different way, and luckily I’ve got a passport and speak other languages so there’s still a LOT of Earth to explore.. and I am here for it! 😄

I think the 20ish miles on dirt to get to KCL definitely helps to keep the population down.. except maybe during super bloom season 😬😆 I just loved it out there! 😍😄

Thank you so much! Finding free places that actually offer peace and quiet in California is always a fun challenge! 😉😁

That’s so awesome - what an amazing place to start your lives together!! 💖

Thanks, Rick - I hope you and yours have had a fantastic Thanksgiving!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it 😄🇪🇨

Thank you! That coast never gets old.. 😍 Hopefully some day I’ll be able to hike the OCT 🙏🏼

Thank you! I just got back from a lil adventure and spent my insomniac hours playing with the night photography options on the phone.. I love me a big ol’ moon, but dark skies show all the stars! 🤩

Thank you! Just got back from a much-needed mini-adventure and this is def the most stress-free T Day I’m going to have had in a looooong time (mainly because I am not in charge of the bird 😆) Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!! 🦃

Thank you so much.. I really appreciate you 🙏🏼

I haven’t been to those.. gonna have to put them on my list! Thanks Rick 🤗

Thanks Lyn! These vids are actually from last year - I am so behind. But I’m getting out as much as I can and trying to cash up for the next loooooong adventure I’m planning. I can’t wait!! 😄

I’ve never seen them in a room together so I don’t know! 😒🤔😆

Most of the process of restoring my physical health has been reconnecting with myself and my inner peace, which has been one of the unexpected ‘gifts’ to come from all this. I actually do forgive him; I understand his motivations, and all I can say is that he is on a path with which I am unfamiliar. However, forgiveness does not preclude one from the natural, reasonable consequences of one’s choices and behavior, so to that end, I am firmly committed to ensuring that those consequences occur. I've already seen how the lack of any has emboldened violative behavior. Unfortunately, reclaiming my identity, my face, and my name publicly was made a necessity, as they were all stolen from me publicly. Now that I’ve set the record straight, with the evidence, I can be done with the public aspect of this ordeal, unless there is a significant change in circumstances. I’ve got bigger fish to fry, and a pretty epic adventure to prep for. Thank you so much for your comments - I really appreciate it!! 💖

@@SuperClassyAdventures😊

Characterizing what has happened here as 'tit for tat' is misleading and grossly minimizing of the extreme one-sidedness of what actually has happened. If I am 'tit' and he is 'tat,' then the reality is that it has been tit for tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat, tit for a full clip of rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tatting, especially if you consider the carpet bomb of libelous comments that were left or approved over as many videos as possible to ensure the greatest number of eyes and ears were subject to 'tat.' Then tit. Keeping in mind that the 'tits' have been the truth, backed with evidence, and the tats have been deliberately and maliciously manufactured lies intended to create a suitable target for hatred and violence with my face and name, repeated ad nauseum. And as you can see from the representative sample of comments here, they worked on the weaker of minds, and have brought to light the fact that misogyny is not confined to just one person in the outdoor recreation space. I am very sorry to hear about the nightmare your stepdaughter experienced, and am glad she had you for support - social support has saved me through this ordeal. However, I fail to see any benefit to keeping my mouth shut that wouldn't be driven by selfishness. Evil operates in the dark, I have a light, and I will absolutely shine it where it's needed if it might help someone else, which was the primary intention of this video. How it lands is not really my concern. The message is what matters. I wish you all the best for a speedy and uncomplicated recovery from your surgery.

I wish you luck. But be mindful that you don't step over the line and open yourself up to a Civil Harassment restraining order that he could file against you. @@SuperClassyAdventures

@@LMicheleS Thank you very much - part of the reason it took as long as it did to post this was getting it cleared legally. This video covered everything, so unless there is a significant change in circumstances, there's no need for any future vids about it - anything that happens within the public record will simply be added to the Drive. I've already transitioned into a new path which is much more positive and exciting, and most of my time these days is spent doing that.
