I’m a Doty and related to the founder and was born in Keno
Truly enjoy the video of Rockford. I lived there for 50 years. Most of these years i worked in the fastener industry. Rockford Illinois was known as the Fastener capital of the world. Not the screw city. What you are doing is very important. Please change from screw to fastener. Not just because it sounds better but because we made more than just screws. Elco Industry was one of the largest companies. Also so was Rockford Fastener and screw co. Thankyou for your time
those are the absolute worst discs on the market. try again with the Innova Starter Set or the Discraft Starter set.
Michigan has NO mountains ... How TF do they have "Grand Rapids" what effing joke... Pipe them in some Flint Water yay🎉🎉🎉🎉
Rockford has such a great history. Sad to hear about its troubles. Was born and raised there. Parents went to East , sister went to Guilford, I went to RCES. I remember the big industry ( most gone now). And the beautiful farms. Fishing on the Rock as a kid. Nihan& Martin, Piggly Wiggly, Aldeen Park . Lots of friends and relatives buried there. Miss the way it was, at least I have the memories. I STILL LOVE YA Rockford. ❤
I also took music lessons at Nielsens music 1970 , I think on 7th

Waukesha is known for its spring water, fox head beer, white rock soda, its wrong that it is know being pushed as guitar town, since there were no guitars made there and everything is now being named after les Paul. Only because he was famous and made a guitar.
Native Oak Parker here, with all the fanfare about OPRF, not mentioning Fenwick High School and its many accomplished graduates seems like a missed opportunity. Pulitzer Prize winner, Astronaut, Olympic Gold Medalist, etc.
Most excellent! The town is gorgeous and the people are precious! Can't wait to visit.
Screw Vera Bradley. They moved most of their production over seas, getting rid of a ton of jobs.
CLEMENTINES 11sep2024 rude and injurious manager establishment will not allow you to finish your meal without harassing to you leave to allow more customers With over $100 meal AND A MATCHING TIP at hole in the wall restaurant, the manageR came by and asked us to leave to make room for their busy night of customers. We had only been there an hour and half of that was waiting for our order. We thoughT we could sit down and relax to a good evening meal with a couple of new friends. BUT NOT the FAT ANGRY MANAGER CALLED US RUDE FOR ENJOYING A TABLE WE BASICALLY PAID FOR. She could not appreciate the value we brought to CLEMENTINES RESTAURANT.

beautiful town.
Never visit Austin without stopping at Tendermaid!😋
Tons of free stuff for young people that do not like to go to work at minimum wage jobs.. free meals at the Salvation Army daily.. free news papers at the U of M @ Univerity Square.. grocery carts full of food at Channel One.. free internet access and computer access at Mayo Clinic, St. Marys Hospital or the Public Library. Free coffee and doughnuts or cookies at a local church downtown, daily. Why should I go to work when I can eat and commute the city for free!?!? It's a wonderful city for homeless people too.
John, you're losing weight.
Wow I am so thankful that they made this video now I feel like this land isimportant
The sign said there was road work ahead so he decided to speed up.
Hang on John! We have to go to to dollar tree. We will be back in 30 minutes

My husband has books that were translated from German to English, by one, Father Downing, a Priest at Loras College. His Uncle was also a very influential priest there, as well. It includes everything that transpired here in Dubuque from the mid 1800's to about the 1930's. Of course, the Catholics settled here and had a major influence, but with the river, it brought a lot of labor - and a lot of transient labor, to be sure. I am going to dive into these books and, hopefully, have more information. And, yes, there used to be a lot of bars in Dubuque but please remember that we had at least two major factories here. John Deere and The Dubuque Pack - that even, until this day, had rival Credit Unions (lol). Thes e men wanted a bar to sit in after work, or even sometimes on their lunch break, to have a beer and play a quick game of Eucker. A lot of those bars have gone away. We do have some crime here but nothing out of the ordinary. It is a wonderful city, with scenic parks and trails, a rich history and YES, a fantastic turkey and dressing sandwich. It's more diverse now than it has ever been. Our hospitals are wonderful. Our public and private education system is top notch and is an excellent place to raise a family.
I pass there a lot, ppl say its scary but i don't think it is lol
Strawberry salsa?! 🤨 I don’t know about that. Sounds kinda disgusting!
Hey true patriot citizens of Wisconsin Senator Baldwin is back by the uber rich in New York and California worthless progressive liberals vote for Eric Hovde and save your state God bless
Unimpaired dry bar shows permanently closed 🙆🏽♂️
It evolved? Still a mess.
Im gonna try thay BBQ so bad.
Also hate to be that guy …. But Lake Superior is NOT the largest freshwater lake in the world . By surface area yes.. but the largest no …That would be Lake Baikal in Siberia . It is much deeper and has nearly double the amount of water . It is 5,670 cubic mi where Lake Superior is just 2,900 cubic mi. Just so you know
I just love Madison Wisconsin.
Love the Quad Cities, great episode.
What an amazing place.
The guy who appears at minute 19:02 I bought Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 and it's epic and kisses fat people's asses
Genius problem solving 😂
Wow that ladys still alive?!
Davenport is terrible. I was born and raised here and we have what. Bowling. The Bix. A great theater crowd, constant construction, high crime rates, and...churches everywhere.
Davenport is more geared for the lower income. You have one decent area and that on the far east near McClellan heights or out near 60th and eastern Ave. The rest of the city has subpar neighborhoods. The money is over in Bettendorf and Pleasant valley.
Beautiful ♥️
It’s a dangerous shit hole ridden with gangs, drugs, crime, violence, run down buildings and neighborhoods and ruined roads. Pete Butigeg was a terrible mayor.
BS
I had no idea Seed Savers Ex was in IA, let alone not far from me! Nice!! plus...I'm loving your tours!!! I just moved to IA but there's not even a walmart in town, so hitting the road is the only option. Nice to know what's around, just by watching these YT videos.
My dad was an instructor at Winona State in the late 60s, early 70s. Lots of great memories from my childhood. I loved the annual Steamboat Days event.
The headgear shown on Julien Dubuque in so many pictures is a romanticism derived from pictures based on the thought of a “French fur trader” without much actual basis on the man himself. The old jail museum in Dubuque has an entire exhibition on more historically accurate history of Julien, including a reconstruction of his face from his skull (and he looks a lot more like what you’d expect a businessman of the time to have looked like)
Is their any jobs at Michigan city Indiana?
Not really, unless you're willing to work at the steel mill, or various factory jobs.
