- Visiting an almost ghost town in northeast North Dakota.
Please note I purposely leave out the names of ghost towns as I don't want my videos to make it easy for vandals to go out to these sites. Please refrain from leaving the name in the comments as well.
My grandma lived there until 1987. We visited there a bunch and were just there this weekend. She lived across the corner from the first structure you were at. The church was converted into a house several years ago. The vault with the steel doors was originally part of a bank then used as a grocery store. There used to be a tiny jail made out of solid wood that is now at a museum. Two people died in it when they tried burning the wall to weaken it and break out, but the fire got to big for them to put it out.
I love looking at the interiors of derelict houses and that one with the beautiful old radio left behind is a shame. The white Frigidaire appliance with the stuck door is a clothes dryer. It actually looks newer than the one I have that my late husband purchased in 1978. It’s a Kenmore and I still use it! Only one repair that I recall. Neat little semi-ghost town with, thankfully, no graffiti! Thanks for taking us along on the journey!
That's an army truck GMC 1950 to 53 Korean war era truck but they are also used in the Vietnam war they have automatic transmissions
Awesome explore...love all your ghost town/house adventures. Greetings from Australia 💜💙
Thank you very much Jenny!!
The “torture device looks like a “Giant Strides.” Bet plenty of kids got scuffed up on that. Thanks for sharing this!
That was at one time indeed a Military Truck.
Thank you for confirming!
Actually very nice video my friends. I live in Fargo….we love N.D.
Thanks for the tour, I enjoyed it.
I think those windows lined up against the wall in the house were storm windows. When I grew up on a farm in ND we had those and would put them on the outside of the other windows in winter and take them off in the summer. This was in the era when double paned glass wasn't available. The homestead of my Anderson ancestors in Williams County south of Tioga is still well maintained by the heirs who live in another state. One of the third generation heirs recently occupied the home and works in Tioga.
Aww, the cat was cute. He probably just wanted his belly rubbed and a little scratch behind the ears.
I have always said - Chester drawers LOL . I just realized I been saying it wrong my whole life ..LOL
So sad to watch I have family in the Dakota’s my grandfather owned a farm etc had 10 brothers and sisters ! I would move back but there is no one there and I have kids !
Just a thought: Try to research these wonderful places you visit, and intersperse your images with some historical information. Probably quite a bit of boom-and-bust agricultural buildings/places/ghost towns in North Dakota. I'll met your viewers would enjoy some history of specific places. The history of a place usually helps a reader/viewer get a more intimate sense of place. Keep up the good work. Watch out for the ghosts.
Nice 👍
I can understand people abandoning North Dakota. I lived there as a kid for 2 years and it was the most miserable time in my life...the only time I remember being bullied in school. I was glad to leave there!
North Dakota is actually a pretty cool place to live 😁
@@lcogdillbarrelhorses yes I remember it was really cool...as in COLD! There were things I liked about it but unfortunately the torment I went through in school when we lived there did not make me have fond memories of the place. I miss the sunflower fields and the Dakota Kid sunflower seeds...lol
Time marches on.
Haunting
It's a Maypole and yes you were doing it right. Works better when there is a few more people.
Great area of Rural North Dakota.
I'm not sure if there's a "textbook" definition of a ghost town, but 20 people in a town is a ghost town. I'm in southern California and there's a bunch of them in the desert. Trona California, for instance, still has people living in it, and even has a high school with a dirt football field, but when the majority of the housing stock is vacant and or completely gutted/stripped, then I would consider it a ghost town. Some realtor could perhaps chime in on this.
Anything that has an abandoned downtown , I call a Ghost Town.
It's a dryer. goes to 140 minutes, the round hole in side is for the dryer venting tubes.
The item with letters appears to be a chalkboard. Never fear ALL the kids from N. Dakota are "BUFF". lol
Poor cat always left behind..
Friendly little thing
Urban explorer from Texas coming to ND this month. Looking to collab in the area
Flat land makes me depress.
They rip the copper wires out through the walls(piping too) for meth money.
You would get a bunch of kids on each and run real fast thrn lift their feet off thr ground
Please tell me she took that cat home.
Some one must own it if not tell everyone where
That was called giant strides
Thats an old radio
I want that radio is worth a lot of money trust me!.
not
It would be awesome to restore that old radio
Kitty 🐈⬛🤗💗💋
Rather than a vault, a jail cell?
You are right, a vault :-)
Where’s this at?
Please read the description, locations are purposely not posted.
I see a 63 chevi or gmc.
Take the radio .
Snake on truck worn away
You can get a tick in winter..your age showed thru when you didn’t recognize that old radio as a radio
