I thought I could renew my South Dakota drivers license online but I had to do it in person. This required a quick trip to South Dakota to take care of business. I figured I would find some nice camps to make the best of it. Thanks for being here!
*My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
Thanks for watching!
**Follow Your Dreams*

If your drivers license needs to be renewed, I guess that means it's also your birthday, Brian. I hope you had a wonderful birthday!

I remember the first time you were in South Dakota, you've seen much since then brother...Heck, I remember when you were living in your van in San Diego, saving money to equip your van and hit the road...It's been an enjoyable ride...I did finish my books, got them published, bought 14 acres in the Finger Lakes, built a tiny off grid home.. Bought an acre in Florida, and built a big garage, to skirt the insane zoning laws, pull my rig right in, open the curtains on the back wall that exposes a beautiful river view, with no neighbors...Travel in my rig a good bit of the time, but have snow birding home bases..The example you set helped immensely...Peace..

Looks like you had a happy birth month Brian. I became an SD resident last spring in part due to your videos. The South Dakota Residency Center in Spearfish is an awesome new mail service with fantastic customer service. Lynne is their manager and Spearfish is a cool little town on the edge of the Black Hills just a few miles from Wyoming.

Dang Brian, you have the most uncanny ability to find these awesome free campsites. I think I have a campsite man-crush on you bro! We've abandoned the RV lifestyle in lieu of a campervan with solar so we can A) be more nimble and B) get out into these free campsites and away from overcrowded RV Parks where we are two feet from our neighbors sewer hose. Love your channel!

That sure sounded like Sand Hill Cranes ... they are exquisite ... from Ted Andrews “Animal Speak Pocket Guide” ... he gives short one or two word Shamanic meaning and then a longer sentence or two longer description of what it means when certain animals show up in your environment. For Sand Hill Cranes the short description is “Sacred Guardians” ... you are in good company Safe Travels Great Video Thank You
