You were lucky, it is fairly common during the monsoon.

I completely agree! Many nice roads go away from town and into mountains, and there is a nice golf course there for summer fun!

Thanks, another version is in the works.

I like that opportunity when it arises, the cat looking off into the distance. I have a number of those pics.

Dutchie was the most vocal cat I have had. But she saw a lot of new countryside, and explored it all.

Don't forget, Lincoln (or just outside of it) was where The UNIBOMBER was caught! I usually went through there regularly driving to Spokane, WA. Great ride.

I have been there several times. When you say NW Nevada, I think that as starting at Gerlach and north from there. I will be returning as soon as I get an RV and can travel there. RT 140 is a favorite. Ever hear of the Stolpa family? Thanks for the comment.

I lived in Chicago as a kid, then Griffith, Indiana, later on. LAKE EFFECT snow is a bitch!

I live in Oklahoma and I agree

It is. Not for everyone, but I loved it.

I am actually in Kentucky now, I feel your pain.

Thanks for the comment. There are hundreds of other films, and more will be coming. I plan on permanently hitting the road one day.

I first lived in Atlanta 50 years ago. My where did the time go.

I was in Great Falls for a few years. Loved it. I took a lot of road trips on the ranch roads, even in winter. Of course, sometimes they were impassable, so the road trip was delayed. Montana is one of my favorite states. I would still be there except for the short golf season, just six months a year. I will return!

I will google that Hunga Tonga. My favorite view out at The Bering Sea was looking toward Kamchatka, just over the horizon!

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for your opinion!

True with most mountains in the world. Mostly a factor of elevation. Most of the coastline mountains in AK are not very high, but they still get snow.

I don't know about there. I lived in New Hampshire on the side of a mountain facing the coast 40 miles to the east of us. On July 4th in 1993 we had the wood stove burning trying to take the chill out of the air from a 2 day ice storm. That's why the Farmers Almanac published in Dublin New Hampshire is considered so accurate. The writer had been very ill and hadn't finished the July report for weather. Someone thought it would be funny to say they expected snow in that month. Guess what it snowed in July and the legend was born. Now You Know. AND Knowing is half the battle... The other half is unrelenting violence. 😅

P.S. The story happened a long time ago. The two events were a century or 2 apart.

Usually by July the only snow happened at higher elevations. The road that goes over the pass, as well as the one going up Mt Ballyhoo, were blocked by snow until early July. The taller mountains kept some snow all year.

@@JayEmpty In switzerland many pass roads are blocked by snow until august..

Shawneetown is west of Morganfield, Kentucky (or southwest of Evansville, Indiana) right on The Ohio River in Illinois. Small town, you need a decent map.

Just enjoying a ride thru Illinois, listening to country music, wondering why this seemed like a good idea.

@@sammylacks4937 understood

I am glad you enjoyed it!

I assume you are talking about the NM photo...Thanks. I love the open road.

I just drove through, but I will be back.

They do that a lot in Oklahoma too! Seems like that’s the only way they think they can make any money!

Conservative government in my home state Texas, that’s their way to keep taxes low. My friends in these great little Texas town fall for it. Small town south of Tyler had 500 residents a pd of 35. And yes, speeders thru your great towns should have tickets. They cheat on the speed limit, too. Good gosh, 75 mph limit on a two lane Texas farm to market road. The whole things very wrong. Wrong way to pay for your government.

Hope you liked it!

Why are defense lawyers in these areas so much?

@@JayEmpty 🤭Good one!

@@HaveaVH5150 Thanks. It was so wide open I never expected a speed zone. It was so wide open, 80 mph would be fine. There were NO cars around. That cop must have been awakened by my approach. But YES, I missed the 45 mph sign. It was just was very much out of place. And the cop got another sucker! He did his job.

@@JayEmpty I wouldn’t expect it either. Nothing around and definitely not a high accident area. Not worth ruining your day.

Seems like a petty and pitiful cash grab to me. I'd be ashamed to try and make excuses for that bro.

@@bradhuff256 I rewatched this video on full screen and the 45 speed limit sign is clearly posted. A speed trap, no. A 45 speed limit sign in the middle of nowhere is suspecious.

I had views of two bays, maybe the best site in town! I was so lucky to see it when I did. I sold a house to a Kevin Greene years ago...

@@JayEmpty You're a lucky man, thanks so much for sharing the wealth of beauty!

I have photos of big groups of gathering eagles when a local fisherman cleans his catch in his yard.
