    Gorgeous hot springs-- unique. And I have no idea where it is! Can you imagine if the figs were ripe and you could just sit in the hot spring and let figgy juices go where they may? (sounds erotic, but I don't mean it to be LOL)

    Always an interesting video, Mindy. Anxious to hear what your "Van Life Reset" will be about. Guessing... you will likely be transitioning from the "Ninth" into your later model Element...??
    Will you be selling the "Ninth"...? Or will there be much road life left it...? 🤔

    Beautiful Views Mindy! Having a productive spring cleaning Sunday as the Heat Index is 100 plus lately in Hill Country area. There is, without a doubt, a noticeable visable progression (esp after Covid) with the lack of assistance to those still housed, those who lost jobs, homes, family members... creating a tsunami wave of Homeless. Glad you were safe. It was nice to see the Secret Cove Springs area. Stay well and Thanks for sharing! Sending Best, Magdalena

    Mindy, it is getting bad all over the country, especially in California also. I live in Central California and LA started sending there homeless on a bus to us. Give them a bus ticket and a bag lunch and a little bit of cash and send them here now we have homeless all up and down, the main street. Doing drugs at our mailboxes in broad daylight,
    I was driving on the 710 freeway through LA and all the way across an overpass was homeless people encampments all the way down! We have definitely got a problem in our country. We’re starting to look like a Third World country. 😢 Governor Newsom lost $24 billion that is just missing for the homeless! There is no way this problem is gonna get solved if they don’t make sure the funds are going where they need to go

      Hey there! So good to read from you. I know what you mean about the issue of unhoused people and a housing crisis. I was a Community Health Worker for rural counties in Oregon, and I LOVED my work. I can honestly say that I made a difference. That being said, holding space for mental health and crisis was unimaginable. I will continue to inspire and help where I can to help remedy this issue. If everyone did one thing, the world would be a better place. Hugs & Cheers!

    My Ellie milage is 135,1679 and she will be 20 in November of this year. I'll never give her up. We have homeless issues here in Missoula. Everything is so expensive here and I can't afford a house. Rent is just expensive here for 1 bedroom is close to over thousand a month. Before covid I could rent 2 bedrooms for 950 a month. Not anymore. :( The homless shelter here isn't big enough for all the homeless. If they camp in the city, they get into trouble.

I'm a driving monster, so believe it or not, my orange Honda will turn over 400k miles this fall! I simply love it and wish, oh wish, they would bring them out again!

    Nice to see you again beautiful hot springs would be relaxing for sure I think i know where you were , 43.00 a gallon I wish i bit more here in Ontario sadly . Yes I have the same here in the park behind my home with homeless individuals but the police do come and kicked them out and take down their tents . scary though. My vehicle is a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe AWD 6 cyl. with 218,000 K, I believe if you do regular maintenance the vehicle will last., Ive changed the differential fluid ,, transmission fluids , synthetic oil change. and Krown coat. looks and drives like new. i am second owner. My brother had a Honda Element. cant wait until your next adventure. stay safe girl.
