Peter-Santenello-Interview-Bob Davis Podcast 1169

Peter Santenello Interview

Firstly Peter Santenello joins the Bob Davis Podcast for an Interview.

Three Years Ago

Secondly Peter and I became acquainted three years ago at Quartzite, Arizona.

In addition Peter and I became pretty good friends as a result of that interaction three years ago.

Furthermore he has helped me with my YouTube Project.

Experience In The Desert

Not to mention the fact that appearing in a video on Santenllo’s channel documenting his experience with us in the desert that year.

Collaboration

Equally if not more important is our collaboration this month on a video in Arizona.

Arizona Diversity

To begin with Arizona has so many diverse cities and towns.

Stories To Tell

And there are always stories to tell.

Therefore our trip entailed visiting four completely different Arizona Towns.

That is to say Sedona, Clarksburg, The Yavapai-Apache Nation, Jerome and Prescott.

New Rig Co-Stars

Even more my new rig, Mobile Podcast Command Unit 11, is prominently featured in Peter’s new video.

Audio Podcast

Thirdly we decided to sit down for a podcast on my channel the day after our little tour of mid northern Arizona.

Because I create unique content for the audio podcast as opposed to the video channel, Peter-Santenello-Interview-Bob Davis Podcast 1169, includes content not in the video on my YouTube Channel found here.

Also Peter’s YouTube Channel is here.

Experiences

Afterward we talked about the trip, and the experiences we had.

Social Media Isn’t Real

For one thing we agree the America people experience through social media is not the reality.

Travel Opens The Mind

In the hope this fact may be better understood Peter and I discuss how travel broadens the mind and softens harsh judgements.

Fourthly we talk about Peter’s experience with his many videos and interviews.

Great Adventure

All in all we had a great adventure.

Arizona History

In essence telling part of the Arizona Historical story and sharing our own observations.

All things considered we talked about the mining and ranching history of Arizona as well as our impressions of life in The Grand Canyon State.

And Grand It Is.

Joshua-Tree-National-Park-Bob Davis Podcast 1150

Joshua-Tree-National-Park-Bob Davis Podcast 1150

Joshua Tree National Park

Joshua Tree National Park is certainly one of the best National Parks in the US. Some rate it the best. I am live from Joshua Tree in Joshua-Tree-National-Park-Bob Davis Podcast 1150.

Dry Lake Bed It Is Not

Of course it is a far dry from the dry lake bed I’ve been staying at for over a month.

Although the dry lake bed has its charms.

Loving National Parks

Equally important is the fact that I am growing partial to National Parks.

Grand Canyon and now Joshua Tree

Of course getting stuck for a month in the Grand Canyon is pretty great. Listen to the Grand Canyon Podcast here.

Bureau of Land Management

It’s important to realize the difference between the Bureau Of Land Management ‘camp’ sites…

Other Options For Nomads

As well as the National Forests, State Parks and of course the National Parks.

Although you have to pay in a national park…and most forests and of course state parks.

And you have a fourteen day limited stay…

Worth It

Altogether it’s worth it.

Discounts and Passes

Especially if you take the time to investigate various discount passes you can get.

BLM Stewardship Is Not Like The National Parks

In addition I spend a little time in this podcast talking about recent issues with the Bureau of Land Management’s stewardship of the land.

Never Pay Camp Fees?

In the same fashion while I know many nomads consider it a badge of honor of they never pay camp fees.

Free Is Good

To be sure free is good.

Condition of Free

However balanced against the state of some ‘free’ campgrounds I wonder whether ‘free’ is actually worth it.

Vibe

Furthermore Joshua Tree National Park has a special vibe.

For one thing two deserts come together in the park.

Therefore one part of a stay in the park might be completely different from another part.

Equally important are the hiking options throughout the park.

No Travel Tips Though

Finally I don’t really do travel tips and I talk about this a fair amount in this podcast.

Presently there are plenty of travel tip and advice videos available on YouTube.

Travel Is A Personal Discovery

But I think the real juice of travel is discovering it on our own.

Now I have certainly gotten myself into more than one mess with this attitude,

On the other hand in the end, it has been worth it.

New-Day-Headed-SouthWest-Again-Bob Davis Podcast 1114

New-Day-Headed-SouthWest-Again-Bob Davis Podcast 1114

Firstly it’s a new day headed southwest again and back on the road. After spending a month in New England there’s a lot to review and talk about in New-Day-Headed-SouthWest-Again-Bob Davis Podcast 1114.

Details On The First Half Of September

In detail I planned to camp for the first half of September in New Hampshire.

Rain

But it poured rain.

And camping is no fun in the rain.

When Conditions Change

Of course when conditions change plans change.

Notwithstanding the first half of September in New Hampshire was spectacular.

Beaches and Mountains

To explain there were visits to the beach and mountains.

Good Food

As well as a lot of good eating.

Finally most of those experiences are explained in previous podcasts here.

Back On The Road Feels Brand New

Secondly getting back out on the road after only about three weeks feels brand new.

Headed Southwest

Especially when I am headed Southwest.

All in all getting back in the travel and recording groove is surprisingly unfamiliar.

Live From The Forest

So live from the Allegheny National Forest I update podcast subscribers and listeners.

History and Experiences

With this in mind there’s some discussion of the history of the national forests.

And a review of some of experiences at the end of summer in New England.

Brunch On The Atlantic

Afterwards topped off with an emotional family and wedding experience.

Ending with a fabulous brunch on the Atlantic Ocean.

Hit The Road

Thereafter I hit the road with a vengeance.

Three States

Subsequently covering three states before finally getting to the Allegheny National Forest.

Feels Good

Above all I can’t believe how good it feels to be back on the back roads!

Nomad Life Is Good

As a result New-Day-Headed-SouthWest-Again-Bob Davis Podcast 1114 includes some observations about Nomad Life.

Behind The Windshield

For one thing I continue to be amazed at how different the back road world is from behind a windshield.

Rather than what we think the world is like scrolling….

Freewheeling Podcast

By and large this podcast is freewheeling.

Stories and Plans

In any event I’ll tell you some stories and share some plans.
