- Because of the extreme summer heat, most Death Valley locals who are able to, leave for the summer. Before my sis and I take off, we visit our friend Ross and run a few errands.

Thank you Ross we Been trying to get wonder hussy to wear decent shoes when hiking for years 😂 . I'm glad we got to see your sister again in the video shame she doesn't record it'd be great to see alaska 😀
Eliza lol
@@mannybravo237ok :)
One of first things I noticed!😘thanks WH. We love you (& ur feet🤗😂)!♥️
I know the feeling of saying goodbye for the summer . . .
I live about 40 miles outside of Phoenix; in the Sonoran Desert.
Many of the houses surrounding my home are owned by Snowbirds from Alaska, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, and upstate New York.
Each year, around early November, the seasonal residents - aka, Snowbirds - begin their annual pilgrimage to the Valley of the Sun.
Then, by late December, all the refugees have arrived for a sun-filled respite from their bone-chilling full-time residences.
For the next three to four months, the immediate neighborhood comes back to life, as we share with each other what we did from June through October.
Somewhere between the end of the MLB Cactus League training camps and May 1st, the local population slowly dwindles as, one by one, the Snowbirds head up Interstate 17 for their trek homeward.
Traditionally, the Snowbird season ends with hugs, handshakes, goodbyes, and wishes for a safe journey home.
Like me, all the Snowbirds are elderly retirees. So, when I hear those last parting words - "See you next winter" - I know the liklihood of that happening lessens with each passing year. Nevertheless, the optimism of reuniting stands strong.
So, yeah, when the air in the Valley of the Sun becomes too warm, it marks a time to say "goodbye" dear friends, close the window shades, set the A/C to 78°, and hide from the Sun for the next six months.
°°
I grew up in AZ, currently living in CA and looking to retire. If I could afford it, I'd spend the winters in Phx and the rest of the year in Flag. Well, it's a fantasy.
Thanks Thomas....I really enjoyed reading your comment. It was very poignant, and beautifully expressed.
Ross is such a cool neighbor
Love ya , Sara . Best silly person that is honest and funny.
Glad to see your sister with you! Happy trails to you! ❤
Hey there Wonderhussy. We are anxious to follow you all summer long. Thanks for this look at your stomping grounds before we head out new horizons.
Wonder-sister is a Badass, she climbed thru that place with no fear or hesitation. Sarah cried and complained the whole time lol, toughen up buttercup! Eliza you're a BEAST!
Sarah Jane still got it done and I’ve had more than a couple folks bail out on easier sections. She gets a gold star.
@@tecopamines Ross, you're the real star. Things you do with having just 1 leg, God bless you man. And The 1st person to get Wonder-sister on video lol, we thank you.
In a older video, Wonder-sister was sleeping on the side of the trail and Wonderhussy and another friend had to go ahead scouting for water and looking for the volunteer cabin. They're both badass lol
My god, unbelievable - not a single dull SECOND for Wonderhussy! You are the Carl Sagan of geology, the Huell Howser of the West (better, actually), the patron saint of the Noteworthy! Never an off day!
Lowell Thomas of our US desert 🏜️🧐🤳🥰
Thanks so much
What can be better than all summer road trip with Hussey????? 😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Glad to see you back on the road for 2023 WH.
I'm stuck in the city so I'll travel with you vicariously.
I haven't been to Death Valley since 1987. Enjoyed you video.
Brought backemories.
🤩 Another great video by Wonderhussy! 🥰
Your a trooper to handle the heat,hats off to you!🇺🇸🌞
Love these bonus Sunday videos.
Wonderhussy: The Musical.
You know it’s only a matter of time! 🎶
I love Sunday mornings, I start the day off with Wonderhussy, and then the sailing videos. ☕😁 Good morning Sarah👍
I think I know you the sailing videos gave it away 😂
@@judizzstuff Not sure, I don't really comment on many of the sailing videos, these are huge channels... Wonderhussy isn't like most big channels, she still enjoys interacting with her subscribers👍 But nice to meet you👋
Great idea!
When I moved to Palm Springs in 1989, Memorial Day marked the date that most of the restaurants and stores closed for the summer and Labor Day was when the tourist season began. Most of the support staff headed for Vegas or Seattle for the summer. Year rounders threw weekend pool parties during the down time.
Now the stores and restaurants stay open and we have tourists that just want to know what 120° and dry feels like.
Norm. Loved your
Comment
Miss mary
Very true. I was there years ago on a June 29. 108 degrees. Hoards of people on Palm Canyon Drive. I was going to eat at a Dennys but decided against it when I saw the line to get in went out the door. It was a weekend but still. I guess Palm Springs is a year round town. Great little city - one of my favorites ☀️
Watched Ross' video a few days before this one. Also pleasantly surprised to see so many shots of your sister. Desert life must have made her comfortable enough to allow photography. Nice.
Sandy here: coming along with you is an offer I can not refuse. ❤ And it is the only way i can see your "middle of nowhere" places. Stay safe and have fun, Sandy and Ruth ❤❤
Just subscribed to you, and bless your heart, I’m honored to be your first subscriber!
I’ll be looking for your comments here, as we watch our dearly beloved Sarah Jane on her adventures! Like you, it’s a treat to be able to go along with her, isn’t it?
Safe travels Sarah 🇺🇸
I love this video and you and Eliza were a ball underground. You handled those ladders and that stope slide like bosses and neither of you died! 😂
More mine to see when you get back. 😎
-> Am glad you guys gave that waitress a nice tip, to console her & help her out financially!! How kind of you all!! Love looking at the Mines, much appreciated!! Very Interesting, Indeed!! ⛏️🕳️⚒️🏜️ Divine Angelic Safeguarding, Providence, Benediction, Healings, Good Health, Abundance, & Many Blessings, you & yours, Wonderhussy, & ALL!! 🙋🏻♀️😻🙇🏻♀️🙏🏼🕊️👼🏻🌫️☁️⛈️🌌🌟
Sarah Jane. Crazy woman of the desert wilderness. You just got to love her. ❤
we stopped at the crowbar a couple of weeks ago--they would not serve us because they close in 20 min!--we ran into your neighbor Scott and had a nice chat--we headed up Saline valley to the back side of cerro gordo and offered a truck to Brent to haul his water--took my friend back to Bishop and went home to Tonopah...
I guess you should order the takeout. I don't see why that would be hard To Do! I mean come on how many people do you actually get to eat there in the middle of nowhere?
second, yeah, greetings, beautiful sunday everyone
Beautiful Sunday right back at ya!
Happy trails to you
Until we meet again
Happy trails to you
Keep smiling until then- (Roy Rogers)
Yea! We're going on a summer road trip! Thanks, WH! 💕
26 minutes sure does fly by when you watch Wonderhussy! 💋
I loved the hurried, almost panicky run across completely empty road the most. 😂😂😂
Sarah our bags are packed and our seatbelts are on, we are ready for another adventure with you. Let the journey begin. Summer is hear and we are ready to go along with you on your next adventure. Only thing I ask is can I have a window seat.
Hi Sarah-I am a Catholic and know many many Philippines People-As far as I am concerned, they are some of the nicest most beautiful people on this earth-I am sure they would welcome you to the Mission-Happy Travels and who knows-we might bump into out on the Western trail 😀🥰🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very interesting. I'm from California but have lived in the Philippines for 15 years now. First I've heard of this.
"Geologic wonders" are everywhere but they're visible in the desert.
Oh yeah baby! You Bet Your Sweet BIPPIE, I was a kid when i first heard that line on Laugh-In comedy show in the 70's.
It's about time you got down and dirty! Ross has one of the best examples of mining you can visit. I'm glad you finally got to really get inside a mine and take a long tour especially with Ross. It took a lot of doing but you have a Chipotle now! At least you won't starve.
No evacuation for me. I'm going to hang out in the desert like I do every year. The higher 100°Fs are coming and more frequently. So it appears the cool spell (mid 90°Fs to low 100°Fs) is ending (maybe this summer, I'll try to mend my truck back together).😊
Thank-you for giving that waitress your compassion. I know her, and she just recently told me about that day. It meant a lot to her. Thank-you.
Thanks for another great video. So Looking forward to more adventures with you.
The phrase 'pull your chain' or 'yank your chain' to describe a prank or joke on someone, comes from honey carts. They were chocked in place with a chain. When someone was committed to their business on the cart, pull their chain! Off they go, great gag!
Wonderhussy's sister has a nice shape on her.
You really are an enthralling storyteller, Sarah. Here you've kept me riveted through a succession of, let's face it, otherwise kinda dull sights and sites, and I gladly watched the whole thing and totally lost track of the time. Thank you!
I sooooo agreeee!!
So proud of everything that you have accomplished girl! You are amazing!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can see an advantage to having a slab of black iron and a cast iron skillet laying out in the sun...Just fry up some bacon and eggs and breakfast's done. Only problem...the cook will fry too.
Yes, I agree...when it gets that hot somewhere, the best plan is to be somewhere else. But I wonder how you'll know if your new mini split air conditioner is effective for hot summers there if you spend the entire summer gone.🙃 Anyway, here's hoping you run into some pretty neat situations...much love to you and yours, Sarah Jane♥.
Yay! Summer road trip with Wonderhussy!! 😃 let’s go!!
I would love to see you film this location.... I'm sure with your personality they would receive you warmly..... YOU ALWAYS DO SUCH A GREAT JOB.... WE LOVE YOU HUSSY !!!!!!
Get Wonder husky with Stephen Spielberg
Or you say who yo write to
Scott and mine guy
I guess the gray clouds and drizzle here in LA aren't making it beyond Palmdale. It has been cold and drizzly here for the past 3 weeks!
Same here in Santa Cruz! Our highs are in the 60s and cloudy! But I know I'll miss it when I get to Vegas 😅
it's the June gloom
Wh's sister looks like she would be great to watch! Speaking as a gentleman of course!
Love living in Lincoln county New Mexico outside of capitan in the capitan mountains were it’s cool all summer long my place seven thousand feet high.
Great video nice to see Wonder sister
This June, in Vegas, it's been about 20 degrees cooler than last year. Quite pleasant. Wonderhussy will do just fine.
It's been a cool spring. Considering she ISN"T in Death Valley, it's been a pleasant 80 degrees. (Tecopa)
She's so full of shit.
I like that story.....very good.....thank you
Love the music pics on this one.
You have got the coolest life! I live in SE South Dakota and it is so boring !😢. Love watching you’re adventures. You are a great story teller of history and great places. Thanks for what you do. Have a super summer. By the way I love you’re little camper you had last summer 😊
Get rid of that Nazi governor and SD might have a chance to changhe its Nazi Shithole status.
I love ❤ the additions of the shade to your compound...looks like it really helps 🎉
You make look like fun living in the desert 😂…..and,so interesting!….thank you 🙏
Awesome video Wonderhussy and enjoying watching too beautiful country too 👍😃😎♥️
7:27 That's just how I like my inclines- STEEP&LOOSE! *and PHOTOGENIC♡
THANKS!
Thanks! I needed a pick-me-up today and WH always comes through
I've watched this channel for awhile but lately I've needed more of the desert so I've been addicted to the Wonderhussy channel. That's because it IS about the quirkiness of people in the desert. Im a gen xer who grew up in a small town in the desert and this was my life. Other than Baghdad Cafe, Ruben and Ed, and Gas Food Lodging, too few TV shows and movies show this as an end unto itself. Most TV and movies with the desert are about drugs, death, and or desperation. People live out here, just living their weird lives, no breaking bad or david lynch in sight. So keep bringing the weirdness!
Yay. A bonus vlog ❤❤❤
Sarah, thanks for the video today, good one!
Nice to see your sister Eliza joining you on some of your adventures. Tell her to jump in front of your camera sometime and just say "hi". Enjoy your summertime travels, are you going to "Burning Man" this year? If so, be safe and enjoy. 💞
Will watch you on your adventure
# 5 in case you are wondering what an OLD man does while watching your videos, i'm drinking coffee and
pealing peanuts for the squirrels - because my wife gets " ticked off " that's a polite term, about all the shells
my little kids leave all over the deck
Same here...but I don't peel the peanuts....it would take forever...
Thes kids have a huge appetite...as well as the blue Jays...so I just sweep the patio in the evening ...and call it a day 🐿️
@@jamesorendorff2731 and @janetceniza8091 Funny thing...I've been to some places where peanut shells on the floor was a very normal thing.
You know you could always put the shells in a Container.. That would probably make your wife a lot happier.
I think it’s cool that you still have fan interactions through the mail. Seems much more personal.
I think the folks at the mission would welcome you. Looking forward to that one!
Too cute baby girl 😊
that was a good one!!
Thank you so much for the chuckles. You have such a fun way of telling a story. I look forward to your summer travels.
Howdy Wonderhussy, still following your channel. Again, thanks so much for explaining and giving us the history you come upon. Went thru Death Valley mid day in July about 15 years ago. Then I thought yeah desert no civilization BUT now you have shown some jewels of interesting things there. Please be safe and aware of your surroundings. Thank you for being our guide. ❤
I was gone the month of May. It was quite a shock to see everything closed up, even the county pool. The Crowbar is closing July 1st for a couple of months as they remodel and update the kitchen. There won't be anyplace left to eat or drink in the area.
The big black stripe on Charles Brown Highway is often visited by geologists and students.
Great Adventure! Thanks for sharing! I don't think I would go in there and now I got to see inside! Thank You! What a neat thing to see.
threading a camel trough the eye of a needle 🖤💜
great video, trip, nice to see you and your sister!!!!
have a great day, ill be with you on your trip, in spirit at least
You are something else Wonderfulhussy.
It’s interesting to watch your video after watching Ross’ first last week.
Thank you for the update! Have a cool summer.
I always like your stories 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Great stories what
Do other people think
@@philipfareio4445 yeah
It was interesting seeing the mine and that stripe in the rock. I thought it was nice that you are excited to come back to Death Valley after your other adventures. It's for sure I'll be following you 😊
Your videos are the best. Looking forward to your summer adventures. Safe travels.
here in australia during ww2 there was petrol gasoline rationing, my dad remembers all the cars were converted to carbide acetlylene gas and he said they worked just fine
You and your videos make me happy I just so love them!💛
Have a nice summer!
Every day we watch and thumbs up

@@Elhastezy888 oh heck yeah that's an old school cut Great minds think alike
Amen sister
See you on the road. Safe travels and be well.
Excellent, absolutely love your videos, thought I saw a few lizards and a snake packing to leave 😎🤣🤣🤣⭐️⭐️

Thanks for your reply I be watching gal is love them armpit s that is a p s
we have to watch his channel to see her lol
Great plans! I'm actually moving to Vegas later this year, but planning to spend my summers exploring the West Coast! 😅👍 Btw, a mine tour with Ross might be something I need to add to my bucket list!
Good luck with your move. My plan is to move back out to Vegas in May 2024. I can't wait to get back. Missing it so much.
@@ferdienaraval1438 Thank you! And that's awesome that you're moving back! Btw, are scorpions a problem out there?
Wonderful video!!! Love it!!
I enjoy the community of southern Inyo. When you'all and Tecopa Mines get together it is a hoot. I think that most country towns have high and low seasons and appreciate knowing how the residents and those who would like to stay being residents are affected or arrange things. In Big Sur it's can you make it through the winter and I can see how "can you make it through the summer" would be what comes down in the summer. My personal hat is off to Shoshone for doing what it is they do. Wishing you the best. Thank you for sharing these wonderful-wonderhussy travels and escapades with us.
I will be watching! Love your video's!
Yes, lol. Interesting story. I can't wait to follow you this summer.
Great video as always Sarah!
Can't wait to follow you on your upcoming trip.
Safe travels!
Great story, I was stationed in the Philippines when I was in the Navy, very interesting., Will be looking forward to your travels stay safe
Thank you so much sis wonderhussy for sharing this beautiful scenery in the desert I love it I wish I was on vacation right now sure can use one anyways thank you so much for sharing have a great night be safe sincerely Suszie❤❤❤❤❤
You should travel to Nowhere, Oklahoma, Sarah Jane, so that you can actually say that you have been in the middle of Nowhere.
What a fun trip you had! I love how you showed the beauty of Death valley! So many wonderful things to do! It's now on my list, hopefully I can go in the winters. I'm glad you had such a lovely time! Special memories 💖 Like and support from Bangalore
Always a great laugh when it comes to your exposure to the rough lives men( miners in this sketch) led and still lead to earn a buck. Pants and shoes for protection. Ross just savin a girl from herself. Great idea for a hot day!
