Isn't it amazing that she can talk non stop for what seems like an eternity without even a pause or "uh", just smooth conversation. Good job Wonderhussy!
I take a shower at about 6 or 7 pm then sit on my front patio with a 48 inch wall in my underwear. Wife thinks I'm crazy. It's just like my swimsuit. Very refreshing with a beer
Bless you my desert nymph, for your beauty and knowledge! For walking down, the road of life, naked as you please, and entertaining us mere mortals Thank you ALL stay safe
I lived in Ridgecrest California for 16 years and worked on the Navy base out of China Lake. The desert is just as beautiful as it is dangerous. One must always be prepared for the unexpected. Thanks for all the great videos WonderHussey
I am a “Desert Rat!” Born and raised in Ridgecrest. I am still here but find that the older I get the more this desert heat gets to me! I can’t believe my sister and I use to lay out on the huge rocks east of town to get a tan!😳Been lucky to have not ended up with skin cancer! I believe it is a different kind of sun these days. Makes me think of sizzling bacon…tan to a CRISP! July is not the time to be hiking in Death Valley! It’s named that for a reason! Stay safe and stay hydrated!
At 10:28 you mentioned our President being assassinated on November 22, 1963. I was an 8 year old boy in 3rd grade and somebody came into the classroom, whispered something to our teacher, then they assembled us in the playground like a fire drill and announced the news and sent us home. I remember everyone was crying and in shock
The silver pan is reflective. That's why the optical temp sensor didn't read right. Also why it didn't get very hot. Now, if you'd used a black cast iron pan, I think it would have been an entirely different experience. :-) EDIT: Ok, I should have waited til the end of the video before commenting. You mentioned it. heh.
If your going to cook an egg go down by Furnace Creek and you cook it directly on the asphalt road. The road temperature will be over 200° on a $125° day.
Wet cotton clothes can make being outside about 30° cooler. That's a rough estimate, but I've done it, and it can make a huge difference, the difference between intolerable or even downright dangerous, and very pleasant, even cool. Just hose or pour or sprinkle on some more water whenever you start to dry out. Thicker cotton stays wet longer. A sombrero can also help.
On the heat thing: When I spent July of 1963 at Fort Sill, OK to attend an ROTC summer camp for six weeks. Temps were 102-105 most days with no clouds. As we were physically active playing war games etc. we'd take a ten minute break every hour to re-hydrate and down some salt tablets as it was also very dry heat. I came back with heavily tanned skin. With that and decades of motorcycling in bare arms, I'm now dealing with recurring skin cancer. If you're young and reading this, don't bare your skin to the sun any more than necessary! Skin cancer is easily curable. ..but only if you work at it constantly!
@@kengreenfield-nman Yeah, those water bags would leak just a bit...and the evaporating water would cool the whole thing down pretty good. They don't work too well in humid climes.
Well, there's good, better, and best. I still think no human in history has come up with a more efficient body cooling system than Mother Nature. And she did it In the heat of Africa, millions of years ago, when she removed our body covering which was trapping heat, and came up with the idea of sweat glands. Voila! So now, it's really simple (practical too). To warm up, cover up. To cool down, UNcover. And to give your sweat glands a little boost, spray some cool water on your all over bare skin. And don't cover it with anything! lol!. The prudes may give you the stink eye, but at least you'll be cooler than they are.
I forgot to mention wind. Afternoons are often windy in the desert West. Strong afternoon winds come like clockwork here this time of year, among others (I'm in the same county as Wonder, but in the northern part). If you had wet cotton clothes on, and it was 100-110° out, and windy, you'd be chillin right down. Way, way down.
hey just a quick tip. i live in north AZ close by the river. i have a harbor freight carport. (about $100 2 years ago.) i hold it down with a t post on each corner. i replaced the cheap tarp with a 10x20 piece of shade cloth. its been working great for over a year. and can take the desert winds out here. its very ez and cheap, or lets say frugal.
I must agree with your desert assessment, It's wonderful in the summer. I live year around about 20 miles east of Quartzsite and i love it here, I love the idea of a town that allows you to walk around naturally. It sounds like my kind of place. I think your videos are getting better This seemed very natural and unscripted, I quite enjoyed it. Thanks
Sarah Jane - So glad the mini-split AC system is working great ! I lobbied you very heavily to spend the $ for the latest in technology and comfort - a wise decision by you and your sister - your are a couple of very smart gals !
Mini Splits are the only way to go. You having zoning without the expense and aggravation that a central system would plague you with. IMO mini-splits are the future for all residential cooling needs. I ran an AC business for 10 years and back in the day (90's) zoning was all the rage. Nothing but headaches and expense for all who attempted it. I always designed around area cooling needs. Bedrooms vs kitchen living. --> two small systems better than one large. Some of my competition would install elaborate duct zoning systems in conjunction with a large and expensive two speed AC unit. They never worked right. Baffle issues, duct fan issues, over complicated troublesome headaches.
*HOW to STABILIZE* your sail shade: 1) The higher the tension the better. 2) Raise two diagonal points by two feet or more above the other two diagonal points. You will create a saddle shape that is more resistant to the effects of high winds. 3) The higher the tension the better. Hope that helps.👍
Make the low points of the sail shade facing Southwest and Northwest - increases shade and creates a divergent duct for the prevailing breeze - increases velocity and lowers temperature.
@@c.s.mcleod7383 Yes, some half moon cuts can come in handy. Sail shades typically do not have these relief cuts because of the aesthetics and longevity requirements of the installation. Commercial installations are done with wind load in mind and if installed correctly the reliefs are not necessary. At Wonderhussy's compound their issue is proper mounting points. Both Height and strength of termination are the issue. Many thousands of dollars are spent just for the mounting points by professional installation companies. Strength costs money. Lots of it. That said, in this situation if proper mounting configuration can not be achieved then your relief cuts may be a viable option - IF - the fabric can tolerate cuts without reinforcement. I would opt for proper installation -- Because this is to be permanent.
I was thinking that the shiny chrome finish on her pan would just reflect the sunlight. Another thing with cast iron pans is that the seasoning on a good cast iron pan is usually dark black, which I would think would absorb the sunlight faster than a reflective surface that's white or chrome.
On 11/22/63, I was there! I was a kid standing by a lamp post on Main street just East of the Old Court house when he rolled by and made the right turn onto Houston by Dealey plaza, then the final left on Elm. Had to be about a minute before he was shot. I always tell people, "even as a kid, I thought it was odd that LBJ had his fingers in his ears when he passed."
Wonder hussy, i have to say you have me in memory of my young days, of my mother taking us kids on many adventures across the western states some great places iv been
I enjoy coming home from work and sitting down watching your videos it's so relaxing for me. Safe travels wonderhussy and thanks for taking us along with you 👍👍😎😎🙏🙏
OMG...33 seconds in and I see Wonderhussy come out to meet the morning sun in her short diaphanous nighty! Now I've got to stop my heart from racing and watch the rest of the video to see if it lives up to the opening. Well...the ending was just as awe-inspiring! Thank You, Hussy!
Great video! These Death Valley Life videos when you talk about the temps always make me think of that famous Blazing Saddles quote "Can't be more'n a hunnert an forteen!"
On the Day we lost Kennedy I was in an oxygen tent after mom gave birth to me two months before, lungs were struggling to clear, but here I am watching you wonderhussy 🌄👍 PS, nooo waaay you were walking down that road with no..... Shoe's on 🤣
I've been to Death Valley many times since I lived in Vegas in the 80s & 90s. The hottest I've ever experienced there is 122 Degrees in 1991 driving from 395 across the valley to get to Pahrump for the 4th of July picnic. Brisket, cooked in a pit... man that was some good stuff!!🤤
Get 2.5" to 3" plpe, put that 4th anchor point in it and stand the pipe in the hole you've filled with concrete. Tie the pipe off vertical for a day or two, then you can untie it. Wait at least another week, 2 would be better, for the concrete to cure. Then put shade cover back up.
My thought, you have to use a pole in concrete instead of a tree, there is chance of killing the tree. A strap is for a static hammock short term and not under dynamic pressure long term, probably no guarantee on tree protection.
President Kennedy's funeral was held on my 3rd birthday (and John Jr.'s 2nd birthday) November 25, 1962. I still remember not quite understanding why everyone was glued to the TV and not celebrating with me.....(I got over my pouts rather quickly when it was explained in terms I could understand). The country lost a great man and president 😢😢😢
Egg frying on the sidewalk contest is an annual event in Oatman AZ. The question is not if you can do it. The question is who can do it fastest. 118 degree here today.
I was a senior in HS when Kennedy was assisted, and remember it well. Feel free to consult. At the time of Robert Kennedys death I was a tile setters apprentice in L. A. Worked in the walk-in coolers in the basement of the Ambassador Hotel, and felt eerie walking the basement hallway where he was shot!
My father and I -- he a professor, I student always came home for lunch so he could watch an old friend who had a role on the 12:30 Central soap, Days of Our Lives. That's where we were eating sandwiches and watching the soap when Walter Cronkite broke in to tell us shots had been fired at Kennedy's motorcade. We finished lunch, skipped the soap and returned to the campus to join everyone else following televised events for the rest of the day. We also stayed up past midnight at home to watch Neil Armstrong take one step onto the Moon in 1969 when I had come back to go to grad. school on the same campus!
My mom passed away recently so I've been driving back-and-forth to AZ and dealing with heat as much as 116° - UGH, but somehow you manage.... Thinking of driving up north of Mt Shasta soon-ish to check out Plato's caves....! If them bolts are really super secure go with cable and turn buckles then sew a hem around the "tarp" and add grommets then secure through the grommets to the cable
I live in Utah and shrink away from 105 F temperatures, I'm pretty sure summer in Death Valley would kill me. I love to go to Death Valley--in January.
I feel for you. It's 3:30 a.m. just outside Boston, Ma. and it's 72 degrees and very humid. I've been to Grand Canyon at end of June and it was up over 100 every day we were there. But dry.way more pleasant than the Maggie's here. Enjoy!
Also, that opioid rescue kit is amazing, and you absolutely should have on hand at burns, or other such things, cus, I promise you, sooner or later, you'll save a life.
Your walk on the road reminded me of a time I went to Laughlin in August for a family friend's wedding. It was miserably HOT that day so I went to a casino off the boardwalk after a couple Pina coladas I decided to walk back to the hotel at ten p.m. little did I know it was still around 110 degrees I was wearing flip flops the rubber on my flip flops melted a little and I actually ended up getting blisters on my feet from the hot pavement. 🔥 from that day on even living where I do ( which is also in the desert) I learned my lesson ... blacktop retains heat.
Hey Live up on Kyle Canyon Mt. CHARLESTON Nv.from 1980 and it Is true about the egg and if your not eating it put it on the cement or put it on a aluminum awning and it fries. I also live on a dirt road In the middle of NO WHERE on 5 acres of grid and ENJOY the quiet. I love hot springs and have been to Death Valley numerous times. I think your 2 funny and have sent your link to many people. Keep up the good work ✌
In Oklahoma where I am it is even hotter than Death Valley and the asphalt is dangerous! I hope you walked on the asphalt at a time it was not too hot. What I like about the desert is it cools at night so you get a break from all that heat. In Oklahoma it does not cool much at night. That is why i wish i lived in the desert instead of the southern us because the night are so cool. So i hope you are having cool nights right now and get a chance to decompress.
I used to live in Fairbanks,Alaska. At 70 below if you ran from building to building and took a deep breath, you froze your lungs and died. But I would have to go to phoenix to train. I’ve had 60 below to 100 above changes in a few hours. Neither one bothered me. I tended to be naked in the 80 above. I did do a lot of hot springs where I soaked and then rolled in the snow and soaked again!
You should try putting the pan in the car windshield lol I live in Vegas and last year I would go to work and cook my burrito or my sandwich on the dash in foil it worked cheese melted and tortilla and bread were both toasted 🤣🤣🤣 lol thanks Sarah for being AMAZING♥️
Love your videos and you are just like my late wife , we went through Death Valley once going to goldfield Nevada, the temp was 115 degrees, by the car temperature gauge. Love your shows.
The set up for the shade cloth is actually really good, but, you need a few more anchors, and they don't have to be up high. The material yall have is perfect, and the fact is, when it gets windy, your shade tarps are gonna do that, sometimes you can adjust the leading edges to mitigate some of the flapping. Had to live under shade cloth , etc, in the imperial Valley, as well as the Mojave, for years.
I would agree with the way it was set up, but I would be a bit concerned about the stoutness of the palm tree point….maybe dig a square meter or two filled with concrete as an anchor point ?
@@3101home indeed, it would be better to not anchor to the palm. Possibly setting a good pole, with an eye bolt up top, running the rope/wire through that to a ground anchor, with a way to tension the line as needed.
I rember the Kennedy shooting I was in grade school home with the measles And was so upset because there was no cartoons on the 2 tv channels we got in my small home town Strange the way we rember things Keep up the great content i love your channel
Sarah, looks like another great video, I'm almost at the point where I can get away on weekenders and explore some of the areas you share on your video's. Alvord hot springs may be the first place I'm going to visit, probably end of August. The hot springs will feel great on my tortured hips. We'll see what the orthopedic surgeon says next Tursday. Hum? I just celebrated my 67th birthday one month ago. The innards aren't in the same shape as the outer. Thanks for the videos, Regards, Don Wilson, Tacoma, WA.
To check to see if an egg is good. Drop it in a glass of water and if it sinks and lays on the bottom,then it is still good. If it flotes with one end up a little, then it is stale. If it floats, then it is bad. And yes, farm eggs have a natural coating that keeps them fresh without refrigeration. If you wash them it will come off. Keep em coming Wonderhussy. Happy Trials 👍😎👍😉
You have the egg coating thing backwards. They are laid with a coating along with other "treasures" that not apetizing to americans and thus do not need refrigeration. In the US eggs are washed and thus the coating is wadhed along with other natual "treasures" in order be more appetizing to American pallets and thus need to chilled.
Watching your videos I've gotta say, besides your humor and wit, and your great sense for editing, you have a really good ear for the music you add. Besides having been a musician and photographer, I also did video work for many years, which is why I moved to LA. So I guess I notice that stuff more. I said it before, great job on on what you do. (I do miss socal so I really enjoy the videos). Hope you get your own cable channel show sometime. Way better than most of the junk on there.
FYI: November 22, 1963, was the day I turned six years old. My mother was baking my birthday cake. She always told the story that when she heard Walter Cronkite make the announcement on TV, she ran to the neighbor's house and wasn't even sure she had closed the refrigerator door ...
I remember the shooting as well but I'm just a few years older than you and I have an older brother and sister as well and we all couldn't get over the fact that JFK was dead
It was the first time I saw my mom cry. The only other time was Martin Luther King. I was 3 and I will never forget. One of my first memories actually. We are old. 😊
Back then, it seemed like we kept seeing big events on TV. The funerals of the Kennedys and of Martin Luther King. And then in the middle of it all, didn't the Johnson girls get married? Major events that we all watched, sort of, together.
I remember when I use to leave Las Vegas for the summer started in May 31st 2010 and spend my summer,s in Tacoma and worked during the summer and returned in October 12th of 2010 and was keeping this routine for 5 years I loved it now I'm stuck here in Vegas wishing I could leave I know what it feels like hussy anyway stay hydrated with a lots of water see your next upload next Wednesday later
You should have used a cast iron pan, the black attracts the heat. The one you used probably reflected the sun away. Hope you try the experiment again !!
Come to Lake Havasu! 92 this morning at 6 am. Normal highs here in summer are 108-118 days and 88-95 nights. We also contend with humidity from monsoon conditions in summertime. Love my desert and the lake! Thanks for a cool video! 😘
If you want to cool down visit Longyearbyen Svalbard the northern incorporated city in the world. You can visit,live or work visa free. Just don’t feed the polar bears.
Death Valley, summertime population of four.....WH and her two Pit Kittens and that kid !!....And you know she couldn't resist and had to go get NEKKID again at the hot spring.
That was an awesome ending, had me laughing which was much needed after a horrible day dealing with the public! Even in the middle of nowhere can't seem to get away from people anymore. Thanks for another great video!
From another person that deals with the general public for a living- I salute you! I don’t know about you but by the end of the day I absolutely need solitude and quiet.
I have been following you for quite a while. If you and you sister intend to remain in Death Valley and you have the financial means, you might want to consider gradually converting your homestead into a self sustaining Earth Ship. It means using various techniques and concepts to cool, heat, utilize recycled resources for water, power generation that are successful in your harsh environment. Ultimately it would be transformed into a fully functioning self-contained biosphere taking advantage of the various elements you would employ. Just a thought.
I go for a 40 minute walk during my lunch break no matter how hot it is in Las Vegas every day. I find it a good way to acclimate my body to extreme heat. It gets pretty intense but I am committed to not to be a giant wuss
Digital infrared thermometers are really meant for measuring flat-black colored items. Reflective items can throw off the reading. A cast iron pat or pan would have been better for the egg frying test.
Except for the important fact that it's rather humid in Austin - easily 4 or 5 times that of DV when I visited my dad there in August a couple years ago. (Like 8% versus 40%). The climate in Texas seems pretty miserable, overall. No wonder it's cheaper to live there I decided, compared to the CA coast.
Junior's old enough to see some te. Thats some funny stuff Sarah, thanks for the laugh. Wish I could have joined you for that one that hot spring looks awesome 😊❤❤
Isn't it amazing that she can talk non stop for what seems like an eternity without even a pause or "uh", just smooth conversation. Good job Wonderhussy!
Actually I heard uh ‘s
Meth does that too ..just sayin
OMG the ending! Thank you Wonderhussy for giving me a much needed laugh at the end of a really tough day. You are the best.
She was really miffed, LOL...

The egg needs to be on pavement/sidewalk. Asphalt gets about 170, cement gets about 150, in 108+ temps.
Egg frying on the sidewalk contest is an annual event in Oatman AZ. The question is not if you can do it. The question is who can do it fastest. 118 degree here today.
Use shade cloth that is porous so wind will blow through. Possibly doubled-up.
I was a senior in HS when Kennedy was assisted, and remember it well. Feel free to consult. At the time of Robert Kennedys death I was a tile setters apprentice in L. A. Worked in the walk-in coolers in the basement of the Ambassador Hotel, and felt eerie walking the basement hallway where he was shot!
Well… I guess you could say they assisted him…..in dying.🤷🏻♂️😬
I was in fourth grade that day. The principal came on the intercom to notify us and reassure us that everything would be okay.
My father and I -- he a professor, I student always came home for lunch so he could watch an old friend who had a role on the 12:30 Central soap, Days of Our Lives. That's where we were eating sandwiches and watching the soap when Walter Cronkite broke in to tell us shots had been fired at Kennedy's motorcade. We finished lunch, skipped the soap and returned to the campus to join everyone else following televised events for the rest of the day. We also stayed up past midnight at home to watch Neil Armstrong take one step onto the Moon in 1969 when I had come back to go to grad. school on the same campus!
I feel you Sarah....Dateland AZ has the same climate but absolutely beautiful scenery-like yourself!
Another great video from my favourite hussy, awesome scenery. 😇👍👍
LOL! Walking down the road naked. Must add that to my bucket list! hahaha!
My mom passed away recently so I've been driving back-and-forth to AZ and dealing with heat as much as 116° - UGH, but somehow you manage.... Thinking of driving up north of Mt Shasta soon-ish to check out Plato's caves....!
If them bolts are really super secure go with cable and turn buckles then sew a hem around the "tarp" and add grommets then secure through the grommets to the cable
That's a great idea for the tarp! And maybe put a pole in cement instead of using the palm tree.
Such a cool area , can’t wait to get back down there ! You ladies got the place lookin great !
I live in Utah and shrink away from 105 F temperatures, I'm pretty sure summer in Death Valley would kill me. I love to go to Death Valley--in January.
I feel for you. It's 3:30 a.m. just outside Boston, Ma. and it's 72 degrees and very humid. I've been to Grand Canyon at end of June and it was up over 100 every day we were there. But dry.way more pleasant than the Maggie's here. Enjoy!
oh, I love you making me laugh every time, you are so funny, love ya.
Once again another exciting episode in the series that is Wonder Hussy!
Also, that opioid rescue kit is amazing, and you absolutely should have on hand at burns, or other such things, cus, I promise you, sooner or later, you'll save a life.
I love your videos! You crack me up...
Your walk on the road reminded me of a time I went to Laughlin in August for a family friend's wedding. It was miserably HOT that day so I went to a casino off the boardwalk after a couple Pina coladas I decided to walk back to the hotel at ten p.m. little did I know it was still around 110 degrees I was wearing flip flops the rubber on my flip flops melted a little and I actually ended up getting blisters on my feet from the hot pavement. 🔥 from that day on even living where I do ( which is also in the desert) I learned my lesson ... blacktop retains heat.
I think you need to change the batteries in the heat gun. Also, check that it's not showing in Celsius. Love you vids!!!
71 c would be around 160 for
Couldn't touch with hand though
They don't read properly on reflective surfaces
Hey Live up on Kyle Canyon Mt. CHARLESTON Nv.from 1980 and it Is true about the egg and if your not eating it put it on the cement or put it on a aluminum awning and it fries. I also live on a dirt road In the middle of NO WHERE on 5 acres of grid and ENJOY the quiet. I love hot springs and have been to Death Valley numerous times. I think your 2 funny and have sent your link to many people. Keep up the good work ✌
A nice black cast-iron frying pan would probably work, the silver pan is probably reflecting the heat.
🟥12:21 shaving of the bush🟥
In Oklahoma where I am it is even hotter than Death Valley and the asphalt is dangerous! I hope you walked on the asphalt at a time it was not too hot.
What I like about the desert is it cools at night so you get a break from all that heat. In Oklahoma it does not cool much at night. That is why i wish i lived in the desert instead of the southern us because the night are so cool. So i hope you are having cool nights right now and get a chance to decompress.
I keep expecting to see the Wonderhussy Adventures Tours Bus go by anytime now ............
I used to live in Fairbanks,Alaska. At 70 below if you ran from building to building and took a deep breath, you froze your lungs and died. But I would have to go to phoenix to train. I’ve had 60 below to 100 above changes in a few hours. Neither one bothered me. I tended to be naked in the 80 above. I did do a lot of hot springs where I soaked and then rolled in the snow and soaked again!
I'm On The Bus Too, Great Episode Sarah!
the brickpile would be a heatsink for the hot pan, would've been hotter on different substrate
You should try putting the pan in the car windshield lol I live in Vegas and last year I would go to work and cook my burrito or my sandwich on the dash in foil it worked cheese melted and tortilla and bread were both toasted 🤣🤣🤣 lol thanks Sarah for being AMAZING♥️
Sarah you are a gem.💜💜💜
The view from the hot springs is truly beautiful but I got to say that ending was definitely fun, and I got to say you're damn right.
Love whatever you do☮️🌵
Love your videos and you are just like my late wife , we went through Death Valley once going to goldfield Nevada, the temp was 115 degrees, by the car temperature gauge. Love your shows.
The set up for the shade cloth is actually really good, but, you need a few more anchors, and they don't have to be up high. The material yall have is perfect, and the fact is, when it gets windy, your shade tarps are gonna do that, sometimes you can adjust the leading edges to mitigate some of the flapping. Had to live under shade cloth , etc, in the imperial Valley, as well as the Mojave, for years.
I would agree with the way it was set up, but I would be a bit concerned about the stoutness of the palm tree point….maybe dig a square meter or two filled with concrete as an anchor point ?
@@3101home indeed, it would be better to not anchor to the palm. Possibly setting a good pole, with an eye bolt up top, running the rope/wire through that to a ground anchor, with a way to tension the line as needed.
Haha! Funny ending! Or, “If you can’t run with the big dogs stay on the porch”. Love your video’s!
You go Girl!!
I rember the Kennedy shooting
I was in grade school home with the measles
And was so upset because there was no cartoons on the 2 tv channels we got in my small home town
Strange the way we rember things
Keep up the great content i love your channel
the lid will work like a magnifier glass and that will get the pan hotter to the point where you could start a fire
Sarah, looks like another great video, I'm almost at the point where I can get away on weekenders and explore some of the areas you share on your video's. Alvord hot springs may be the first place I'm going to visit, probably end of August. The hot springs will feel great on my tortured hips. We'll see what the orthopedic surgeon says next Tursday. Hum? I just celebrated my 67th birthday one month ago. The innards aren't in the same shape as the outer. Thanks for the videos, Regards, Don Wilson, Tacoma, WA.
My buddy Ian Russell lives in the Mojave desert. He loves it. He's a burning man guy also. I've never been.
I have friends who used to live in Trona. It got up to 120 out there quite often. Thanks for a great video.
To check to see if an egg is good. Drop it in a glass of water and if it sinks and lays on the bottom,then it is still good. If it flotes with one end up a little, then it is stale. If it floats, then it is bad. And yes, farm eggs have a natural coating that keeps them fresh without refrigeration. If you wash them it will come off. Keep em coming Wonderhussy. Happy Trials 👍😎👍😉
Awesome video Wonderhussy. I live and work in Furnace Creek. The desert is beautiful.
You have the egg coating thing backwards. They are laid with a coating along with other "treasures" that not apetizing to americans and thus do not need refrigeration. In the US eggs are washed and thus the coating is wadhed along with other natual "treasures" in order be more appetizing to American pallets and thus need to chilled.
Not all Americans are sensitive to the other treasures on an egg..lots of people raising own chickens now. 🙂

Watching your videos I've gotta say, besides your humor and wit, and your great sense for editing, you have a really good ear for the music you add. Besides having been a musician and photographer, I also did video work for many years, which is why I moved to LA. So I guess I notice that stuff more. I said it before, great job on on what you do. (I do miss socal so I really enjoy the videos). Hope you get your own cable channel show sometime. Way better than most of the junk on there.
FYI: November 22, 1963, was the day I turned six years old. My mother was baking my birthday cake. She always told the story that when she heard Walter Cronkite make the announcement on TV, she ran to the neighbor's house and wasn't even sure she had closed the refrigerator door ...
I turned six less than two weeks before you did. And here we are!
Born in 57? Class of 75? Howdy! (Unless your parents held you back a year, instead of letting you start kindergarten at four years old ...)
I remember the shooting as well but I'm just a few years older than you and I have an older brother and sister as well and we all couldn't get over the fact that JFK was dead
It was the first time I saw my mom cry. The only other time was Martin Luther King. I was 3 and I will never forget. One of my first memories actually. We are old. 😊
Back then, it seemed like we kept seeing big events on TV. The funerals of the Kennedys and of Martin Luther King. And then in the middle of it all, didn't the Johnson girls get married? Major events that we all watched, sort of, together.
Glad to find your channel! Very entertaining. Who knows what you’ll find when you search for a passing though, Death Valley.
Great weather to hang laundry to dry.
I remember when I use to leave Las Vegas for the summer started in May 31st 2010 and spend my summer,s in Tacoma and worked during the summer and returned in October 12th of 2010 and was keeping this routine for 5 years I loved it now I'm stuck here in Vegas wishing I could leave I know what it feels like hussy anyway stay hydrated with a lots of water see your next upload next Wednesday later
You should have used a cast iron pan, the black attracts the heat. The one you used probably reflected the sun away. Hope you try the experiment again !!
Come to Lake Havasu! 92 this morning at 6 am. Normal highs here in summer are 108-118 days and 88-95 nights. We also contend with humidity from monsoon conditions in summertime.
Love my desert and the lake! Thanks for a cool video! 😘
If you want to cool down visit Longyearbyen Svalbard the northern incorporated city in the world. You can visit,live or work visa free. Just don’t feed the polar bears.
Isn’t it also illegal to die there? I thought I watched a RUclips video by a science content creator who claimed that.
@@briangarrow448 from my information yes you can die on Svalbard but not be buried there.
Really a well planned combination of mini plots and camera. I was fluid and drew me in from start to finish! Thanks.
Death Valley, summertime population of four.....WH and her two Pit Kittens and that kid !!....And you know she couldn't resist and had to go get NEKKID again at the hot spring.
Thank You for taking us along.
love your video's
will you come to new zealand
That was an awesome ending, had me laughing which was much needed after a horrible day dealing with the public! Even in the middle of nowhere can't seem to get away from people anymore. Thanks for another great video!
From another person that deals with the general public for a living- I salute you! I don’t know about you but by the end of the day I absolutely need solitude and quiet.
If we ever live on the moon 🌝 You’ll feel right at home! You look like a teenager if the camera don’t get too close!!😉🎥
Surprise to me .. I took a photo of the laundry building with truck out front a few years ago. Thanks for the chuckle!!
I have been following you for quite a while. If you and you sister intend to remain in Death Valley and you have the financial means, you might want to consider gradually converting your homestead into a self sustaining Earth Ship. It means using various techniques and concepts to cool, heat, utilize recycled resources for water, power generation that are successful in your harsh environment. Ultimately it would be transformed into a fully functioning self-contained biosphere taking advantage of the various elements you would employ. Just a thought.
I too am on the bus for life, Sara. Wish I'd known about your town when i was traveling a lot, looking for hot springs.
I go for a 40 minute walk during my lunch break no matter how hot it is in Las Vegas every day. I find it a good way to acclimate my body to extreme heat. It gets pretty intense but I am committed to not to be a giant wuss
Digital infrared thermometers are really meant for measuring flat-black colored items. Reflective items can throw off the reading.
A cast iron pat or pan would have been better for the egg frying test.
It's not that much different from Austin this summer. We've already had 42 days over 100º this year, and there's no end in sight.
Except for the important fact that it's rather humid in Austin - easily 4 or 5 times that of DV when I visited my dad there in August a couple years ago. (Like 8% versus 40%). The climate in Texas seems pretty miserable, overall. No wonder it's cheaper to live there I decided, compared to the CA coast.
Junior's old enough to see some te. Thats some funny stuff Sarah, thanks for the laugh. Wish I could have joined you for that one that hot spring looks awesome 😊❤❤
that ending shot was just adorable. sarah jane's gotta coconut butt!
9:28 ...a great poster!
I feel you! I live in El Centro, CA in a travel trailer and it's going to be 118 F on Thursday & Friday.
I love your videos girl 😉
You are a beautiful person, and so is your attitude. Bless your heart.
Thank you to whoever sent her the excellent office chair.
76 is cool! Here near Salton Sea the lows have been in middle 80s!
I was 13 when Nixon resigned . My dad made me come in and watch the tv broadcast . So glad he did that . He told me I was watching history be made .
