My husband and I both agree that your channel is the very best on UA-cam. We just absolutely love the way you explain the details and facts and history and show the buildings and what went on there. I absolutely love it.

Drinking With Power Tools is a Great Combo...Awsum Views Out There
Oh how I miss the Eastern Sierra! My favorite place to go anytime! Spent so many wonderful days exploring the 395 corridor! Thank you so much Jeff & Sarah for recording these “bits” of home!!! ♥️♥️♥️
That prospector was buried long before the highway was built. And that route is just the easiest way to get through with wagons. It was used by everyone traveling back then. Just imagine animal trails in the mountains. There were wagon trails, and that was one. And it was also the easiest way to add the interstate. In the 70s, I remember there was just a pile of rocks and a pair of cowboy boots just poking out of the rocks. There was no fence or head stone. Nothing saying it was a prospector. But there were local "legends" and local stories that a prospector was buried there. I was born in Bishop. My grandpa told me it was a prospector. And if you talked to others in Lee Vining, they'd say the same, an old prospector was buried there. All stories going way back before things were created for bringing tourists or roadside attractions. This was not created as a attraction. I highly suggest reading the historic marker at the rest area in between Bishop and Lee Vining. Could be a adventure for you both to go and fine the vain of gold it talks about. My grandpa said he found it but left to go get help. And could never find it again. He looked for years and always talked about the gold he found and lost. There's so much great history everywhere. I love it!!! Love your videos. Keep them coming.
I love the history lesson I get when I watch you guys!
This was Very Interesting, I Loved it, and All your videos..Thanks..
I've driven that route so many times but never stopped... Boy have I missed lots in my years. Thank You for sharing Jeff and Sarah
Enjoy your videos about history of your country thanks for the videos
Simply God's country and my old stomping grounds while at LADWP. Thanks for sharing these adventures. Stay safe.
What makes your history videos wonderful are your 'before and after' photos of the places you visit. The only down side is that I want more and more content, but realize that at some point, the video must end. This is another area I had only driven past and never stopped. Thank you Jeff and Sarah for not only stopping, but providing the details. I can't wait for your next video!! ....Russell D.

Sarah's a saint. I can tell she's patient and tolerant.
Love all this history! My grandfather and his brothers were loggers up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
Beautiful lesson in Cali. History. Thank you Sarah and Jeff. Happy Thanksgiving.
So many beautiful places to explore just in California alone. I’m glad you showed that upside down house right side up. Ha..Thanks for taking us along with you & Sarah. I remember my Aunt Isabel having a couple of those black rocks that look like glass on the inside around the garden at her house when I was a young child. Thanks for the memories❣️🙏🏻
