@@user-xb3oc9qo9x we never had any trouble! We did free street parking on the night we arrived, and the next day we park the whole day in a garage near the center of town for less than $20 if I remember correctly. We found it using the Spot Hero app

@@lorrainefloyd9845 hahaha yes that is so true

Agreed, I definitely wouldn’t even have had it on my radar if it wasn’t for visiting friends, but I’m so glad I did. It was real life and not overly touristy, which was amazing for getting immersed into the culture!

Ah thank you! The lock bridge is really cool. You should definitely go. I’ll be sure to check it out!

@@Guirrmo thanks! Took me just under 7 hours to complete the round trip for this specific loop. I definitely took the long scenic route though!

@@christinelong-sd8vk you’re right, I’ll be more careful. My boyfriend is from Alabama and he thought it was funny; I forgot there are a lot of people who don’t know how to take a joke. Sorry!! 😢

@@tammymanandhar4978 this was Thursday afternoon through Sunday afternoon. Lots of steps. But at least we got to use the scooters!

@@workingweekenderthat was a lot of stuff in three days!

@@Freddy-ff5pq thanks for watching!

There were quite a few people. I feel like at least 20 or so, several groups and families. If I recall correctly, I think there were also Navajo vendors selling tribal crafts and such. As for getting honked at, I don’t remember anything specifically. You can see cars coming from pretty far so it is easy to get out of the road for them

@@CC-oq2mj thank you!!

@@a-muse6567 hi! We spent one full day in Joshua Tree staying the night in the town closest to the park Twentynine Palms, CA. The next morning we drove to LA and saw some of the highlights before our flight home that evening. So it looked something like this: -Friday evening: fly to LA, drive an hour inland -Saturday: Continue to JT, see JT, night in 29 Palms -Sunday: Drive to LA, see highlights, fly home This worked out for us because we’ve mostly seen LA before, but I would definitely schedule more time here if you’ve never seen it and would like to spend more time here. As for Joshua Tree, I guess it might have been the off season (early December), so we got through the park relatively smoothly without being rushed.

We are pretty good at that 😂

Thank you so much!!

I didn’t have to request curly fries, it just came with it! Sounds like they did upgrade when they changed the menu?

Those were such uncertain times! It really was a beautiful and educational park!

Thank you for the advice

@@workingweekender Thanks. I am just trying to help, and improve your videos.

@@cruisecrazy7066 yes very helpful

Wait, what? What is wrong with selfies?

@@tammymanandhar4978 I don't want to see you. I want to see what you are seeing.

We need to!

Thank you so much! It was an awesome quick little trip!

I don't remember specifically about the car rental, I want to say around $150 for the weekend. The hotel was a really great price at around $90 per night. A great advantage as the off-season, as other times of the year hotels can average $200-$300 per night in that area!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

Oh. Good to know. I will tell my brother that his info was wrong!

Yeah had a good time with Best Pop

Hi @yarddogjones3914, Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand that we may have different views on the age of Devil's Tower and the Earth. My intention was never to cause frustration or discomfort, but rather to share information as I understand it. It's important for us as Christians to communicate with love and patience, especially when discussing topics that can be divisive. A non-Christian reading our exchange might become more resistant to our message if they sense anger or defensiveness. We can share our beliefs without creating barriers. When you wrote your comment, did you believe it would help change my perspective? Sometimes, a gentle approach can be more effective in encouraging meaningful dialogue. If you're interested, here's an article that discusses different views on the age of the Earth within the Christian community: www.christianity.com/wiki/bible/how-old-is-the-earth.html (you may need to copy and paste; I'm not sure if links work in CZcams comments). It explores various perspectives, which might be enlightening for both of us. There are a lot of unanswered questions for us as humans. We cannot know it all; frankly we really should not want to know it all. But we can have faith in the One who does. There are a lot of unknown details which the Bible does not provide straightforward answers, and that is okay. At the end of the day, the most important message that it does clearly provide is that of the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins and was resurrected, offering salvation and eternal life to all who believe in Him. Through His sacrifice, we are forgiven and reconciled to God. And that this gift of grace is available to everyone, inviting us into a loving relationship with God. Have a good day, Rachel

I’m excited for you to travel to Munich; it’s an amazing city!! Thank you for the kind comment 😊 I’m glad to know this was helpful!

Ah well yeah; I didn’t dislike it, but I was definitely underwhelmed by it. I’m glad I saw it though. And definitely would have loved to see the evening lighting ceremony!

Thank you, glad to bring an immersive experience!

Thank you!! Yep really the city life there 😅

Thank you, that means a lot! Yeah the train there was interesting but helpful to know about for sure!

Thank you!

Oh that is good to know!! And that is great, sounds like it was an awesome trip!!

Oh wow!

@@workingweekender The water level is also higher as a result

I believe it took me somewhere between 2-3 hours, but I did spend some extra time to get to the vantage point when most people make the lake itself their turnaround point

I wish Ben could have seen that! He would have loved that.

thank you!!

Thank you so much!! It really is so beautiful in Rome. I felt very safe, but I definitely made sure to stay in well-lit areas

Totally agree! This park is definitely better than a few of the national parks that I’ve visited!

This was in the first week of July. I would say it was relatively warm. I believe the high was in mid 80s

@@workingweekender Thanks, planning on going next year. It will around the 1st or 2nd week of June. Again thank you for replying.

So true!! Just something easy and filling after a long day’s adventure. Thank you for your kind comment 😊

Also at 10:15 I got lost right here and wasted like an hour going the wrong way

Oh wow!! Yeah there are definitely many parts of this trail that were not clear at all. We also did the first part of this trail about 3 years ago, and we also spent a LONG time getting a little too far off the path. Really encouraged me to download the AllTrails map the second time around 😅

Thank you so much!! 😊

That is sooo true! It was almost perfect when I went in January. Can’t imagine being able to truly explore this park in the summer 😅

Beginning of July!

This was right at the end of May, and I believe the weather ranges from 30-60F in May

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
