    I want you to know how much your videos means to me. I had knee replacement surgery and I can't do much of anything. But your videos give me great joy by letting me see the world around me. Thank you so much.❤

    The 1880s town was amazing. It's a little run down but that's honestly part of it's charm. It's been there a long time, and I hope it'll be there even longer still. When I was in Denver, my friend had a prairie dog colony right off his patio, and it quickly became my morning routine to have my coffee and watch the prairie dogs. And I'm not surprised that one let you pet him. Animals can sense a good soul.

    So sad to see Buffalo Ridge Cowboy Town falling apart. It would cost a fortune to fix up all those buildings at this point. So, I guess see it now, because at any time it could be closed down for safety reasons. Thank You for sharing this roadside attraction with us.

    Jacob is truly committed to what he does ❤🎉
    Every time I travel anywhere especially in East Tennessee I think about him and how inconvenient it would be while attending Moonshine tastings shopping attractions ...all the while documenting and describing in front of other people. Not to mention the driving!!! It is truly an art form that he adjusted to over the years. Very inspirational but don't know if I could ever put myself out there the way this man has for so many years❤

    The Cowboy Town in Buffalo Ridge is a unique time capsule, but...so eerie and a little sad seeing all those historical animatronics slowly deteriorating out there if they're really as old as they say. If only someone could give it all a proper restoration. With repaired buildings, better housed displays where things are protected from the elements, cleaned up professional signage that's easier to read, remastered audio played on new speakers so you can actually hear it...Man, that'd be kinda nice...No matter if it's outdated and a little cheesy, that'd be nice.

  • @portersculpturepark172

    Thanks for bringing back memories of my time at Walls Drug Store back in 1968. My mom and grandparents with me in tow drove from South Central PA to Seattle, WA. We then flew to Anchorage, AK to see my brother. He was stationed at King Salmon Island in the Air Force. That was my first airplane ride. I loved seeing the prairie dogs and antelopes. I also counted the oil rigs each day.
    Safe travels.
