    This is such a WONDERFUL channel! . I'm so glad you were in the description below the Downey Live videos. His videos came up in my feed first. You guys are excellent traveling companions and bros. My train companion bro was my grandmother. We had some great travels together. Your channel brings back happy memories and has inspired me to add more train travel to my bucket list. Trek on my friend!

      I lived in Phoenix for four years as a kid, and we never went to the canyon.
      Eight years after moving back to Massachusetts, my family went to the canyon... while I was at National Guard summer camp.
      They didn't even let me know they had gone for nearly two weeks after I got back from Fort Drum.
      -
      This is the same family that had the first (and sadly last) full-family Christmas without telling me for several moths after when I was living with my (now ex-) wife two towns away.
      TWO TOWNS AWAY!

      And in both cases above, they acted like I shouldn't have been upset.

      @@WillEdmond Hey Will I found you via Tom Scott as well and I'm happy to clarify :)
      Tom's main channel (if you're unfamilar) is the one with just uner 6m subs under 'Tom Scott', and you were in his weekly newsletter where he shares things he found interesting :)
      His channel is also great but I'm so glad to have found yours through him! I live in AZ as well so it's cool to see an outsiders perspective of AZ / the grand canyon so thank you for sharing and I'm excited to dive into more of your content!

      hey! just wanted to point out that word is actually categorized as a slur. many people don’t know that so i’m sure it’s just an honest mistake!! ☺️
