    Nice work buddy. Nothing like re-exploring your old back yard. I’ve been climbing all over the Boulder flatirons lately and found some pretty special new to me places, hope you can join me this summer. The wife and I are doing a really wild one tomorrow!

    Awesome you have a beach like that with so many great memories for you guys. The fact that you live near there you and your wife know a lot of the history. I thought the battery was cool and the fact you have the oldest lighthouse in the nation. Beautiful sunset at the end. Thanks for sharing Randy.

    Randy, I really enjoy the beach the most in the winter, and so nice that day for you and Julie. This is a great place to be near your home, and for finding sea glass. Interesting military history that goes all the way back to 1783. Bonus - Lighthouse and sunset! Great editing job. THANK YOU FOR TAKING US TO YOUR BEACH, . . . Mike

      Tough subject - we were scheduled to climb the mountain this Thursday. Pulled the plug on the trip last week. Nearly all my campsites were cancelled and the National Parks are still closed in WA. Add the weather forecast and felt it was better to do at another time. Have a great one - would have been nice to join you guys!

    We are heading into week 7 lock down in the UK so it was real nice to see the coast, one of the many things we have missed over here. I know it was February but surprised at how deserted it looked on the beach, as it looked great there. Nice bit of history and nice to see the 13 British sailors are still remembered, when they died there, even though they had deserted. A beautiful sunset is always a winner for me and that was gorgeous! I hope you are all keeping safe and well over the pond. Take care Randy, cheers Alan

    • @AmericasParks
      @AmericasParks  4 роки тому +1

    What an amazing area that is! Great edit my friend! Man, I forgot to call you AGAIN. Its not like ive been really busy here at home...sorry bout that! We( at the wife's request) are putting together a 4-5 day trip up the 395 towards Northern California to visit some stops along the ay that are still open. That's the jist of questions I have for you regarding various sites that you have been too. Most are open except the visitor centers, etc. I want to hit such areas as Smith River NRA, Lava Beds, Manzanar, Mono Lake,and Trona Pinnacles( BLM) and maybe Cascade Siskyou, etc. Just gonna wing it day to day and see what we can do. The wife wanted more different scenery other than deserts and suggested Nor Cal so I said" Lets go". Plan on leaving the 17th. Hoping to be able to talk with you before if I can remember to call.! take care bro!
