  • In the summer of 2019, my daughter and I visited El Morro National Monument in New Mexico. The site preserves ancestral Puebloans, over 2,000 inscriptions carved by Spanish and American travelers and a famous well that supplied water to inhabitants and travels for centuries.

    One of my favorite things about your videos, besides the natural and historic significance you share, is the acts of kindness you model. It is something I can show my girls for some goodness in the world. I am watching this a day after Thanksgiving and with that please know I am very Thankful for you and your family, your channel with it's amazing content & the hard work you put into it's presentation. Much love to you and your family :)

    That trail map that you looked at in the visitor center was very detailed and nicely made. This look like a really cool park in the middle of nowhere. This trail had a lot to see and I appreciate you showing me it. Really glad that you're doing videos in New Mexico because I have not explored it at all yet. Thanks for sharing Randy.

    Clockwise definitely looks like it was the way to go. What an interesting and incredible place! I cant believe how much there is to see! Even Capitol Reefs main wall only had a few inscriptions. This is phenomenal that so many are preserved here.
