I love exploring old buildings. Thank you for taking us along!
Glad you do too. Thanks for watching.
You’ve left the mountains and now the flatlands of the Midwest await……cool to see some of the old abandoned structures dotted around…….thoroughly enjoyed!
Thank ya! Has us wondering what else is out there ro be found.
Amazing how these remote houses still have all the windows broken
Glad there was a draft though. It smelled pretty bad in there. It was such a cool old building. Thanks for watching.
Super cool! North Dakota is a state full of history.
We love ND! Thanks for enjoying our video. We hope you'll watch more.
I just love North Dakota
Us too. A hidden gem of a state.
I live here in the northern part of North Dakota. I love the quiet and the weather it’s awesome but ure right it takes us about two hrs to get to Walmart
You are so lucky to live that quiet life out there. North Dakota is one of our favorite places.
Really nice to see the deserted school. And Appam, ND as I eat. A bison burger with cheese. That I cooked in a oven range skillet. All alone in my apartment.
You know how to live! Thanks for watching.
Who has a bison burger on there menu ?
Lots of Denver area restaurants. And I got the Bison meat at a good grocery store and did all the cooking.
Love that you take time to check out and document the once wonderful old homesteads. Such a great way to spend the day.
It was so fascinating to find so much abandoned. We had to look it up. Glad you found it interesting too.
Hi guys! We are REALLY behind in our viewings - but so glad we caught this one - North Dakota is not an area that you seem to hear much or see about so this was super cool! Thanks for sharing! We love to explore around these types of areas! “Keep making memories & adventure on!” ~Karen & Shannon WOY
Hi! ND definitely doesn't get enough love. That's OK though, we enjoyed the quiet, open spaces. We need to get caught up on your vids too. We just got done working the sugar beet harvest and now are finding routine again.
when i saw your vehicle i thought it looked familiar then i realized you drove through my jobsite by appam nd. Its crazy that i decided to click on a random suggestion like this! Great video
P.s. you two make the cutest couple ❤
That is so awesome you found our video on accident like that. We were having a blast out there. I bet you know of some cool places out there we missed. ND doesn't get enough love. Thanks for the compliment too!
What a beautiful and unexpected walk through time! I love all the old abandoned buildings and the look back at what life must have been like! The school was really awesome and to see the stark contrast in the brick work vs the rest of the building, is a real shock. But the insides of the little school is just amazing! And the gym! What a treat! Thank you both for this wonderful treat and the time travel! It was just awesome! ❤❤❤❤
It did feel like a time travel! Really, really wishing we could have gone inside that home Charlie flew to with the drone. It looked like it was still furnished. Also would love to walk that gravel more to find more agates. Thanks for watching!
Very cool adventures for you guys!! The buildings evoke some sadness, but a personal study of local histories in these remote areas lets you examine a past of more bustling humanity. That agate was waiting for you to find it!! WOW!!! Yes, more of these videos would be exciting!! Thanks, my friends!!
This was a nice unexpected adventure. The day bleeds into the next video too. There was just so much to see in a place we assumed would bore us. Thanks for coming along.
Yay! I’ve managed to get caught up! I will probably get behind again in the near future, but I’m ready for the next video now.
Those old homesteads were quite interesting to see, but there is definitely an aura of sadness around them. People raised their families, lived there lives, and dreamed their dreams in them. Now they are empty husks, holding only memories. I’m glad you, and we, got to see what is left.
Thanks for watching all those vids. Hope you enjoyed them. Let us know when you get your rocks. We sent them out several days ago from Minnesota. We're excited for you to have them.
@@TheAdventureCloset yes, I did receive them. They arrived on Tuesday in perfect condition. You did a great job packing them into the box!
Oh my gosh! I LOVE this tiny school house!- I’m so glad you guys braved the Barb wire and hopped the fence! I could just vision the farmers children attending school here.
Thanks for the shout out guys!
Thanks for the tour of Apam- so cool there are still people living there- we saw the satellite dishes on some homes. I would love to read those short stories about life in Apam in the past.
Oh my gosh! You found the most beautiful carnelian agate and the fortification banding on that second agate was gorgeous! Incredible finds! Who would have thought there were carnelian agates in ND!
Awesome drone footage of these old homesteads!
Safe travels- see you on the next adventure!
This area was so fascinating. We never drive by an old school without thinking of you now. ❤️
So cool to see the old buildings. The drone footage was amazing ! That agate at 27:15 is awesome looking ! So much fun. Thanks for taking us along. Yous two are so goofy at the end😂
Thank you. Wish we had spent more time inspecting the gravel around there. Wonder where it's sourced from too.
I don't think we have such abandoned places in Norway! Would be awesome to see though! Occasionally we have those mountain huts/farms here and there but rarely more than that.
Incredible to think that my house wss built before that first town you visited 🙈😅
So.. So flat landscape! Wow! How's that even possible! Haha!
If I ever visit USA.. This is what I want to do..! Explore the country.. Not the cities haha! Brilliantly executed once again Liz and Charlie, keep safe my friends! 😊😊
That is pretty crazy to think considering you have much older homesteads there. America is full of old towns that boomed for logging, mining, etc. but busted once the treasures ran out.
I LOVE old abandoned houses and Ghost town type stuff, it always gets me thinking about the people who were there , like how many family Christmases and Thanksgivings and other holidays were celebrated there, did any one have hobbies and when they closed the door to leave did they know they were leaving for the last time . And Holy Agate Rocks that thing is freaking beautiful Liz good find 100% ... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Do another video like this... HAHA The End of this one killed me " I forgot my name and I'M BOB !!" HAHA awesome
This was one of our favorite adventures in ND so far. So much history that might never be told again. Plus miles and miles of gravel to pick through. No crowds either. Haha! Thanks for watching. We've got a few more episodes of the area coming.
Cross the fence! 🤟😆
Heck yeah!
Crossing that fence all I could think was “don’t slip” 😂
Right? That's all I was thinking too.
What I found out about the Hamlet school it might have been built around the 1915 or the 1920s. I did find a comment about the first boy to graduate from Hamlet school graduated in 1931 posted by his son. The Bethel cemetery was that you visited was so cool, I love to explore old cemeteries to see how long ago it was started. Keep up the great videos and God bless you and your family.
Thanks Robert. That's awesome you were able to find that info on such a small school in such a small town. Crazy to imagine what growing up there was like.
Thought I saw posted signs on one house & you still managed to get out and take pics....
Maybe we missed the signs. We try to obey any signs, so hopefully we didn't go somewhere we shouldn't have. Thanks for watching. This was such a great area to explore.
Thankyou for this old time America Tour. Very fascinating.
You betcha! It was nice to see so much still untouched and somewhat intact.
Love your video s
Thank you very much. Glad you're enjoying them. Happy New Year!
Ironically, the reason for the desolation of this area passed right by you early in this video. Farm equipment such as that has enabled a farm family that could barely farm 160 acres in the 20s and 30s to be able to farm upwards of 10 or even 20 thousand acres. Very few of the original homesteads remain, most are just a hill where they were buried or just an insignificant driveway along the road. All of these farm families fueled these little towns. As mechanized farming took over, there was less need for the ancillary businesses. Sure does look lonely.
Best regards from Indiana.
I think you nailed it there. Glad we got to see some of these relics before the prairies reclaimed them.
Those were both cool schools. But, I like the second one best. First one looked lil sus with the cracking (lead?) paint. Wouldn't have been surprised to see one of the chairs start moving. Lol! Really cool drone footage. And, Liz, AWESOME agates!!! Thanks for taking us along to one of the least visited states. Absolutely hilarious outro! Had me roiling 🤣🤣🤣 Have a great weekend you two! 🙂
All those buildings had some spooky vibes, but the 2nd school was our favorite too. Definitely looked like lead paint on that first one. We tried to not eat any though. 🤣 haha! Thanks for watching.
@@TheAdventureCloset hahahaha 😆
First! Woot!! Woot!!!
You win!!! 🏆🏆🏆
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks! 😃
Hi guys, next spring summer we are going to ALASKA and we will stop in ND.
Be sure you drive through the North. It's our favorite area.
Score on that agate Liz!!! That's awesome!
Thanks! Didn't expect to find anything cool out there in all that farmland.
Any ghosts encounters any big foots any skinwalkers?
No one is around, no one to mess with things. Hardiest people around on the great plane's
Don't have to worry about locking things down out there for sure. It has a quiet beauty to it. We could see living out there, but it would come with challenges. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
This is my kind of trip. love it.
Hi Susan! Glad you liked it. We were having a blast too.
Neat and somewhat sad video The Adventure Closet, as time advances things and places get left behind. It is lonely and far between out there, thank you for traveling The Road Forgotten. And cool beans on the rock finds as well, good eye! I had a thought as I was watching your intro with all the foggy windows, do you often have a fire during the evening? My thought is using some of the heated rocks to help keep you warm overnight. I think something as simple as an ammo can to hold the rocks, and a heat proof surface to set it on might work. Be safe in your travels.
Wow, that is actually a great idea. Especially with using an ammo box. No fire hazard or getting soot on everything. We have fires occasionally, so we'll have to remember that trick. Thanks!
If you guys come through south dakota i could show you where to find a bunch of cool spots
We would love that. Might be through next year. If you see us getting close again, pop us a message.
That was an air seeder being pulled by a tractor.
Oh cool! Thank you!
I thought all banks were made out of brick so it's harder to break in.
Not sure, but that would make sense.
Most likely a church/school since it is next to the cemetery. As people moved west, the settlers would have multipurpose buildings, especially since there were so few trees. The eggs are probably prairie chickens or grouse, but I could certainly be wrong.
The eggs really looked very chicken like. Glad I didn't step on them. I think you're right on the building too. Seemed multi purpose.
There use to be a town called Riga, ND but there is nothing there and it isnt even listed on a msp
Now that would be cool to find. Wonder if anything remains of it?
Please index the towns and spots on the video!
We need to go back and do another video. So many cool old abandoned places out that way.
It's a kill deer they nest on the ground
Interesting! Seems a dangerous spot for them to nest.
ND has alot of middle of nowhere
Our favorite kind of places. ❤️
Check out Tracee, ND I HEARD ITS ABANDONED
We'll look it up. Thank you!
Abandont schools
It was awesome!
I thought a ghost town at no residents
Semi-ghost town would be the word.
No ticks in ND till about March or june
And they come in droves too. 🤣
I live in ND. Where is this located?
These were all right around Appam.
Ticks aren’t much of an issue after July
Glad we missed that part. Fun exploring in this area without that danger.
Just a friendly note: Appam is pronounced with an "a" like "and" instead of a long a. great video!
Oh ok! Thank you. We weren't really sure. That clears things up. Thank you.
Where in North Dakota is this ?
Around Appam. Really cool area to explore.
I now live in north Dakota I moved here from lake wood California because it was to expensive,I live in rugby north Dakota and It is better than California the gas is cheaper the water and heating is cheaper but it is hard to get a job here I have been here for 5 months and I don't have a job yet the places of business here are flakey and they don't like people from California also the winter is brutal here,I am a certified welder and I applied for welding jobs and they always tell me sorry we hired someone already yet they still are looking for welders so it is bull shit here but that is ok if me and my brother can't get work soon then I am going to go on uninployment and the people here will be paying for my bills so either way I win, I bought a house here in full no morgage and so I am not moving I have a 5 bedroom house and I am getting solar on my house so then all I have to pay a month is 148 dollars a month and that is it so if anyone needs to move and needs a room I have 4 bedrooms available right now and rent will be what you use in your share of water and heating oil, but the heating oil is only used in the winter so in the summer you don't pay for heating oil and we would go fifty fifty on that ,so it would be cheap for everyone in the house we don't do drugs and not looking for anyone who does drugs unless it is for a medical condition. my phone number is (701)2080767 call if you are interested.
