    I really enjoyed your video. We have been driving through this town for 50 years on the way to a family reunion in Mimbres. I've never learned so much about Silver City as I did in this video. Thank you! My Great Uncle, who passed recently, worked in the Copper mine when he was young.

      If you refer to my comment… you may feel differently…. It’s not what it entirely seems…. I live here. I decide to stay because I’m able to not need anyone around and can enjoy the mountains. …. This place is corrupted …. It’s bold… but extremely true.

    Just a little sarcastic there. LOL! By the way, if you ever go to Marfa, that's how they are too. Nothings open on Monday. That's a lot of silver. Those floods were awful. That girl was pretty resourceful to save her home. Old Log Cabins are so interesting. That was so nice of Ron Howard to give them that cabin. They have such a rich history.

    • @RoamingWithRosie
      @RoamingWithRosie  2 роки тому

      Haha. Thanks. Marfa? We'd understand 1 day closed, but 3 and 4 days? Then only open 6 hours? But not all on the same days? Before we went we read about their economy suffering. Um... hello? But we loved it and will go back. Watching your episode now! 😊

    I just discovered your video and loved it! As a youngster growing up my family moved to Silver City in 1948 until 1957. We first lived in what was called the Phoenix Apartments. But I understand they have been sold and turned into office space. Then we moved to Kentucky St (funny, we moved to Silver from Kentucky) then after that we lived on N Alabama St for a few years. While I attended Western High School we lived on Corner of Louisiana and 12 th street. I understand the college bought that corner of property and torn it down and there’s a new building. I was hoping I would recognize some of the streets. My first job as a teenager was at the walk-in movie theatre down town. I just turned 16 yrs old. I would love to visit Silver City again but can’t. I’m 82 yrs old.
    After all these years I do keep in touch with a friend that I went to school with! True friendship! Keep up the good work. God Bless,

    So, one of the more recent families who owned and lived in the Warren House owned and ran The Hester House shop, a Silver City institution. My mother worked as a clerk in that store, and later as a caretaker for the aged mother of the family in the Warren House itself. Glad to see it in this video. Brings back memories for me. And yes. Lol, the local shops keep by God the hours and days they want to work and to hell with regular schedules. I love this town so damned much!

    Oh what memories, I was there when the downtown was open for business 7 days a week, with real stores and lots of people on the street. They redid the old Gila theater in time for the Graduate to show. I left before the Copper Mines modernized and cut a few thousand jobs.

      @Roaming With Rosie it wasn't a quaint little town, it was a Mining town, lots of bars, restaurants, people doing shift work 365 days a year. The Buffalo Bar opened at 7 AM, which was Graveyards shifts 5 PM. It was a little rough around the edges but it was fun.

    Glad you liked the place, but you missed a real good thing. As you enter the Murry make an immediate Left, you will pass through the doors into what was "The Cattleman" It was the ranchers bar. Land and cattle deals worth millions were cobbled up there.
    Now, if you turn around there is, or was a mural of the whole Gila country, in which all the ranches are mapped and their brand shown. I hope it's still there, we've begged them to keep it.
