Arriving at New Campground and Reflecting on Movement
Summary
rswfire arrives at a campground where John, another volunteer, has already established an elaborate setup with tent, meditation space, chairs, grill, golf cart, and satellite. rswfire observes John's comprehensive campsite arrangement and reflects on his own preference for minimal setup and frequent movement. He walks to the beach and records a 3-minute video of the ocean. rswfire describes feeling most powerful and alive when exploring new places, faces, dynamics, and mappings, while familiar places feel like stagnation. He notes that being kicked out of his previous location was beneficial since he was already struggling with the two-month commitment. He determines that 2-3 weeks is his maximum time in one location, as even one month feels too long. The campground has many children playing, which triggers memories of traveling from Michigan to Arizona during fourth grade with his family, staying at campgrounds along the way. The transmission includes extended footage of walking around the campground and beach areas.
