Give your impressions of how you like it or don't like it... what it's like having to recharge and plan your trip... Got the idea watching you fill up your tank in this video... LOL

    Boron - pronounced bore-on . Dad was stationed at Edwards AFB in the mid '60s, just after he separated from the U.S. Army and enlisted in the USAF. I was a young 7 year old military brat at the time. Loved the area. Thanks for the video.

    Drove through Boron on Friday. Happened to get off the highway to check out something in the town, and found the aerospace museum. The single volunteer was extremely friendly and invited me to tour the interior (having to turn the lights on in the process). They received a lot of their planes from a museum in Lancaster, CA that closed. It might seem like a strange place for an aviation museum, but the proximity to Edwards Air Force Base (hence the B52 flying overhead) is the main reason for its existence.

    That large jet aircraft that you saw was a Boeing B-52 Strato-Fortress bomber. This type of jet aircraft was first flown some 70 years ago. It is still in use by the USAF. It is expected to remain in use till the 2050’s! I’ve always wanted to see one of these things. Glad you got to see one in flight.

      The Boeing B-52's started operational service in the USAF in 1952. They have a crew of Pilot, Copilot, Navigator, Electronic Warfare Operator, Radar Nav/Bombardier, and gunner. Some Fathers and, later on, their Sons have piloted the same exact airplane tail numbers. The Pilots and Navigators in a B-52 during a mission are busier than a one-armed paper hanger. 🤯🤠

      I am with you there as I like old desert towns if abandoned and any cemeteries even ones in a big city because the epitaphs tell you a lot about people living around those areas as part of the story of those communities . In Glendora in CA they had a good size cemetery I think is called OakGlen which I grew up not far from it . I was with friends more than once reading the tombstones . I was at a funeral there once too in the very early 90s . Wasn't living in the area then .

    "Big plane" was probably a B-52 out of Edwards AFB, which is not too far away. Boron used to be a Radar installation base hence all the Air Force museum stuff.
    Safe travels! Might not be on your schedule this time, but the Cerro Gordo Ghost Town is a cool spot (about 2-1/2 hours north of Boron). Have to put Brent and his town on your bucket list for another journey.

    32:00 The Barrel backstory- For years an orange with black stripes giant barrel has been in Boron serving up food and is one of these former A&W stands. It's basically a food stand with a small outdoor eating area consisting of a few tables and some picnic benches. The giant barrel has a walk-up window, and the place serves all sorts of the usual fast food such as hamburgers, hot dogs, french fries, tacos, etc. At one point it was painted white and called Dinky's. Now, it is just called simply "Barrel" which seems much more fitting.

    Boron is close to Edwards Air Force Base, hence that huge aircraft you spotted. Excellent video, Adam...I read online (so, take it with a grain of salt) that they are indeed planning to reopen the coaster at Buffalo Bills and are currently testing it pretty regularly (let's hope that's the case!)

    How do you go through BORON CA ( pronounced BORE-ON) and drive on Twenty Mule Team Road and miss the biggest and only Borax mine in the USA? Hence the big Tonka Truck you passed. You really missed out there. They have a great visitor center and tour.

    Those were telegraph lines that were falling down, not power lines. Telegrams ceased on 2006.
    The Royal Hawaiian was used in an obscure 2003 movie called "The Big Empty" starring John Favreau and Joey Lauren Adams.
    Also, you've got a spot on your lens on the lower left hand side.

    Adam, are planning to do the Universal VIP tour on this trip? With the writer's strike going on, this has stopped most filming. So this would be a great opportunity to visit the Metro and Back to the Future sets via the VIP tour. I know that Provost and Ordinary Adventures got do that recently.

    This comment has nothing to do with today’s video. I just wanted to suggest that if you’re ever in Memphis you should visit the world’s largest Bass Pro Shop. It has a bowling alley, hotel, and 28 story glass elevator inside that takes you to an observation deck overlooking Memphis and the Mississippi River. This isn’t very Punk, but Memphis can give you some Funk. Shall you?

    Buffalo Bill's roller coaster was fun.
    My wife and I stopped there, on a Monday morning...Hungover, from being at a Jimmy Buffett margaritaville concert and party in Vegas.
    We were the only people there, accept for the "janitor" who launched us on the coaster.
    Probably not the best idea...but...what could possibly go wrong???
    2 minutes later, we were stone cold sober, and exhilarated.
    Enjoyed our sober breakfast, and headed out.
    Thanks to Buffalo Bills.😂😂
