    It's your easy smile, positive outlook and general attitude that makes me look forward to the next episode. Thank you.

    You just zig zaged through where I grew up! Trona in the Searles Valley in the heart of the Mojave Desert! I knew the man who owned the General Store in Balarat near Stove Pipe Wells! He passed of old age just last year. His name was Don Brown. When I was little, about 6 or 7 years old he sold us sugar cane to chew on in the car ride back to Trona! He owned The Red Dig Bar in Needles, CA until he sold it 10 years ago. That’s where I met him again and realized I knew him from my childhood. I live across the Colorado River in Fort Mohave, AZ. I love seeing you in my old stomping grounds! Drive careful Dustin! God’s speed!

      I live behind the gas station by the bridge I been wondering if he's gonna go the 15 or Sams town back way or come see our burrows in Oatman. Think it would be neat if he covered some history of along the river here and the newly changed nuclear fallout zone that Don Laughlin paid a bridge to have line drawn around him. Had that line been drawn west of Laughlin where it should be in the 90s it would of bankrupted him the the town of Laughlin and this whole valley still be all cotton and no people cause no-one wants to live in an area contaminated by radioactive fallout. I know I never would have come if I had known then what I know now

    In case you haven’t been told, or up-sold, we do have a National Park Pass you can purchase for $80 at most NP gates. This will save you loads of money, on park entries, in the long run as you travel across the US.

    • @BeeWhistler
      @BeeWhistler 2 роки тому +4

      @@whatyoumakeofit6635 Let me ask you this, then… we pay enough in taxes for the parks but do you want your tax dollars to pay for any old jackass who wants to head to the park to smoke weed and leave garbage behind, or would you rather have everyone have to pay a fee or be fined to at least attempt to screen out people who don’t feel any sense of the social responsibility that might lead them to pay for what they use and potentially also take care of it? I mean it’s a bit of a reach and a run-on sentence but I think the sort of person who would mistreat the parks would also blow off a parking fee. If it means the parks are well-tended, I’m down to pay it.
      You wanna complain that we pay taxes AND parking fees and the bathrooms are still trashed and the parks are still filthy and in disrepair, well… I’ll be right in there with you for that one.

    You were so close to Cerro Gordo, a ghost town left from silver mine. The town once rivalled LosANGELES In size.it’s now owned by a fellow named Brent Underwood and he is trying to revive the town and is a UA-camr like you. It’s quite the beautiful place. It’s not too far from Lone Pine. Nice video

    Trip idea... If you're going to Barstow... from Barstow, take 247 down to Joshua Tree National Park. From there you could drive to Palm Springs. After Palm Springs jump back on the 10 heading east. Take 86 south to Salton Sea. After Salton City take Borrego Salton Sea Way towards Borrego Springs. Scenic drive with hills and valleys. Imperial county road is a little rough in spots, but San Diego County part is well paved. Lots of spots to stop or camp. Closer to Borrego Springs many Canadians come down and spend the winter months there in their RV's. Free open land. South of Borrego Springs take highway 78 west to Julian. Famous for apple pies.

      @VisionaryGardener 2 роки тому +6

      Yes! It's also kind of bad for the desert to have people off-roading all over the place - it disrupts the desert pavement that naturally forms on the surface of the soil and can increase erosion and habitat loss.

    Just as a little "note of interest"... the Bleriot Ferry is one of only 6 ferries still operating in the Province and the fellow who began the ferry service here over 100 years ago was the brother of the Bleriot who was the first person to fly across the English Channel !

    The " H" might have been for helicopter doesn't seem older than buildings you've seen before. You might try your Canadian Parks pass, might get some kind of discount? and correct me if I'm wrong? You might want to look up boondoggling camping spots, might be cheaper, and maybe not as fun as getting the bike in a sand dune or driving in a desert on a bike lol Enjoy your trip! Great editing as usual. Thanks so much!

      Yes that H is helicopter landing pad. I have seen the H in the triangle many times near hospitals
