    Hi Robert. I just started following your channel. Great stuff. Hey that gas station in Shamrock, did you know that Disney Imagineers got the inspiration for one of the buildings in Cars Land in California Adventure from that gas station in Shamrock. Take a look at Cars Land in Disneyland and you’ll see the inspiration.

    Robert, have you watched the movie Cars (Pixar)? It's an animated movie but worth watching especially for someone like yourself who travels. Having seen Route 66 and its decay you'll appreciate the movie's message. It's entertaining for kids and offers a sweet perspective on American travel mid-century.

    Several highlights in this clip ....really enjoyed the Stations of the Cross 💒 . You captured the magnitude of the area in your excellent drone footage. Enjoyed Shamrock 🍀. A bit depressing that Shamrock is one of the last viable towns on Route 66. Definitely worth a look. Love the new song.🎤🎶 So much time spent in the west. Refreshing to get back East 😉 Still hoping that you'll be able to travel to your previous old favorites in the East closer to your home, more in real time. Your productions in those circumstances are phenomenal. 👍

    #139 Good morning, Mr. Robert. Their is a KOA on the east side of Tucomcari on route 66. I've stayed there twice. And you can camp at the bottom of Palo Duro Canyon at Canyon City state park. I did that but was awoken by rangers that a flash flood was possible---so I and others packed up and climbed out on a 10 percent grade road.

  • @exploringnature6319
    @exploringnature6319 5 років тому +1

    Im wondering if people can think about this illustration of the cross? If your son die by a shotgun would you put the gun on a picture frame or hanging on a change to remind you that your son die by a shotgun? Well just imagine How Jehovah God think about seeing a cross all over the place and specially on people’s necklace. That would make God very sad.

    • @Mcfirefly2
      @Mcfirefly2 5 років тому

      Except for one thing: God the Father sent Jesus, who willingly laid down His life (let men kill Him) to bear our sin. Jesus: "No man takes my life from me, but I lay it down of myself..." The sin of men killing Jesus no doubt makes God sad, but He let them do it to bring them to Himself. That's the message that people try to share about the cross.

    • @Riversoflivingwater82
      @Riversoflivingwater82 5 років тому +3

      God doesn't mind. He wants people to know what He went through." For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

    dear robert,
    It's 3am at my house (France), I don't see the time spent watching your videos.
    one thing is great, it's subtitled, it's a beautiful thing, first for the deaf mute and 2, for us English is not our mother tongue, sometimes with the accent, we understand not easily, suddenly, the fact that your videos are subtitled, it's really great.
    I have a question if I can afford??
    before the person eats we wish him (bon appetit), sometimes you say (bon appetit), my Question is the following;
    (in American we also say bon appétit), we don't say enjoy your food???
    thank you in advance, dear robert.

    • @TravelingRobert
