Live From A Colorado Campsite To Talk About Ghosts

Firstly this podcast is live from a Colorado Campsite and we’re gonna talk about ghosts. Learn more in Colorado-Campsite-Ghosts-Bob Davis Podcast 1014.

Squeamish?

Secondly the only disclaimer I would offer is that some people are squeamish about these things.

And others don’t like the whole of idea of spirits in another realm able to show themselves to us, talk to us or even touch us.

Ghosts Of The American West

But if you can get past all that the fact is the American West is full of ghosts.

Strong Opinions

Most importantly because of the strong opinions surrounding this kind of thing I am not identifying the campsite we’re in, and I’ll call my interview subject ‘Bonnie’.

Colorado Is Haunted

Finally Colorado itself has many a haunted place.

‘Bonnie’ has been to most of those places and documented the existence of these entities over the years.

Know The Feeling

More importantly those of us who’ve spent any time camping out here know the feeling.

For example, you’ve gotten into an isolated campsite. Set your camp up. Got the fire going.

Something Doesn’t Feel Right

However something doesn’t feel right.

Spirits In The Natural World

Are there spirits in the national parks and forests?

‘Bonnie’ says yes.

How To Handle It

Even more she’ll tell us how to handle the feeling and what to do if you have an encounter.

They Can Touch Us?

Certainly the idea that a ghost can touch us threw me for a loop.

Visited By Loved Ones

Similarly ‘Bonnie’ says we’re often visited by loved ones who have passed. And she tells some great stories about her father’s attempts to let her know he’s there.

You Might See Them And Not Know

In addition what about ghosts that appear in a corporeal form? You may be seeing them and not even know it. We’ve got a story about that too.

To sum up most of my readers and listeners know how much I love the west.

It’s All A Land Of Enchantment

Even more I believe all of the west is a land of enchantment, not just New Mexico.

Native Americans Knew It Too

Certainly there’s plenty of Native American Lore dating back to the times before any Europeans came to this continent.

Spooky

In the same vein American Indians knew there were places across this land that could have been termed ‘spooky’ for one reason or another, and accepted the idea of ‘ghosts’.

Thanks In Order

In conclusion I want to personally thank two of the most interesting people I have met in my travels and visits to National Parks and US Forest Campgrounds.

Rest-In-Colorado-Bob Davis Podcast 1013

Finally At Rest In Colorado

Firstly after a lot of back roads travel I am at rest in Colorado. But it’s hard to catch my breath at ten thousand plus feet. Learn more in Rest-In-Colorado-Bob Davis Podcast 1013.

Busy On The Nomad Road

Secondly and seriously there’s a lot of work when you’re running your business and creating from the road as a nomad.

Love It

Of course I love it all.

Fatigued? Me?

Therefore it’s not always easy to know when I am fatigued.

Fun As Hell

More importantly taking the back roads and avoiding cities from the East Coast to Colorado while fun as hell wears a person out.

Ten Thousand Two Hundred Feet

Consequently I am ten thousand two hundred feet up in the Grand Mesa National Forest.

And it is Grand!

Singing Wind

Moreover if you listen to this podcast you’ll hear the wonderful singing wind up here.

Pine Forest

And we’ll take a walk through a pine forest.

Time To Unwind

In addition we’ll talk a little about how some nomads unwind.

Not always how I unwind!

A Little Different

On the other hand I would humbly submit I am a little different than most.

Covering A Lot Of Ground

That is to say I am covering a huge amount of ground.

Not Supposed To Get Tired

But I don’t expect to get tired.

Salmon And Steak

Finally I love this nomad life. It’s been steaks or salmon on the campfire every night at some beautiful places.

Seeing A United States You Don’t Hear About

Even more I am seeing a United States you don’t hear very much about these days.

Weird Rural America?

To clarify you hear how weird rural America is.

Vibrant And Exciting

But after days of driving between 60 and 35 through small and medium sized towns across this country I see a vibrant and even prosperous landscape.

Perfect Farms and Huge Ranches

From the perfect farms in Vermont and Indiana to the wide swaths of crops extending for miles across Nebraska and Western Colorado.

From Sea To Signing Sea

Literally from sea to shining sea.

Great Summer Travel For Me

In conclusion I wouldn’t change anything about this summer’s travel.

More To Come

And there’s much more to come.

Always Better Driving West

To sum up I always feel better when driving west.

Mountains!

And I love mountains.

Love This Nomad Life

After that I love this nomad life.

Discover-Your-Nomad-Purpose-Bob Davis Podcast 1012

Discover Your Nomad Purpose

Firstly in Discover-Your-Nomad-Purpose-Bob Davis Podcast 1012 I discuss the burgeoning nomad ‘industry’.

Caution Judgements Ahead

Secondly there are some judgements about the Nomad ‘trend’.

Process of Discovery

Most importantly I’m very excited about the process of discovery that being a nomad actually is.

Manuals Rules Best Practices

However we’re seeing the beginnings of best practices, manuals, and even rules.

The Why

These days all the business and life coaches tell us we have to have a ‘why’.

Amazing Story For Social Media

Seems like everyone feels they have to have an amazing story.

Finally there’s the image of nomad travel we often see on social media.

And the real thing.

The Shoulds

Even more we’re often told by others what we should do.

Experience

To clarify nomad travel is an experience.

Discovering New Experiences

That is to say we are discovering new experiences every day.

There’s No Manual

Above all I don’t think there is a manual for this.

Please No Manuals

I’m not even sure there should be.

Support From Those Who Love Us

In the same vein we all have important people in our lives that push us and help us because they care about us. I am certainly grateful to have people like that in my life.

That’s not what Discover-Your-Nomad-Purpose-Bob Davis Podcast 1012 is about.

Raw Purity

To sum up when something becomes a trend it loses some of its raw purity and appeal.

Plenty Of Room For Everyone

Certainly there’s plenty of room.

New Technology

And new technology is developing and coming on line.

Freeing Us All

Moreover that technology makes it possible for more people to hit the road. Permanently.

Let The Process Of Travel and Discovery Happen

But as the trend continues I hope readers and listeners will remember what a wonderful process of discovery travel of any kind actually is.

Complicating Life

In conclusion this process can be complicated.

Lists. Best practices. Getting advice.

Just Do It!

However if you really want the nomad experience sometimes the best advice is Just Do It!

Only consequently will all the pieces fall into place. That’s the fun of it anyway.
