    When you asked your parents if they were going to climb the castle, your dad nodded his head......'No'. He is hilarious 😂

    Colorado is on my list of places i've always wanted to visit so i'm looking forward to this series of videos. I also love it when you're parents are able to go with you. BTW - the comedians you didnt recognize on the mural were Abbott & Costello and Janeane Garofalo.

    I visited the castle in 2017. We climbed it too. It was late winter and freezing but beautiful. It reminds me of Edward Scissorhands for some reason 😂 My husband worked in CO for two years and said that wolves or wolf hybrids were kind of popular as pets. I never saw one up close before and I was surprised how big they were. *Side Note, I loved CO. It was beautiful and I loved all of the outdoor things to do, but no matter what I did, the darn altitude would make me so sick every time I visited.

    Welcome to my state again Adam. I have been to the castle and yes, I refused to go any higher than the arched bridge myself. The shaking of the structure was too much for me. That was about 9 years ago since I went last. It looks a little better than when I last went there. Thanks for taking us along. 🙂

  • @rizz917
    @rizz917 Рік тому +4

    Adam… that was Abbott and Costello on the wall next to whoopee, lol.
    I’m always amazed that the weight of several people standing on those kind of flimsy walkways doesn’t bring them down. Must be much more sturdy than it looks. I still wouldn’t trust it though.
    Excellent video, once again.
    Thanks for sharing!

    A really nice video, Adam. I DID NOT like when you were up on those stairs on the castle, I thought I was going to throw up. I liked the castle from ground level, listen to your parents!!! 🙂
    The dogs in the video were great, from the "Security Guard" to the Wolf!

    There was a story on the local news in Southern Colorado last night about a nonprofit raising money to get Jim Bishop an adaptive wheelchair. He spent 44 years building the castle, so he never got to travel. This will allow him to go explore the rest of the state. As of this morning, they have raised enough for the chair. Yay! I thought you’d appreciate that story since you got to meet him the other day.

    When your mom asked if you were gonna go up there. My two year old said "no I'm not!"😂
    I've been to that castle twice, the last time I went I also went to that grocery store to get some things for camping. There is a campsite about 15 minutes down the road from the castle. It's a great area. Both times were pretty cool, but I agree, that staircase is nerve wracking.
    Enjoy your time in Colorado, hope I can run into you.

    I spent a few weeks driving around the country and broke down in a town in Colorado and ended up spending a few days there, then went to Denver where I spent two days. After seeing many states and purposely getting myself lost in the capital city of every state I passed through I decided Colorado was my favorite state. I plan to move there sometime in the future. Ridiculously beautiful there. I was surprised at how flat it became after getting out of the Rocky mountains heading east, I wasn't even sure if I was still in Colorado for a bit.
