  • WE DISCOVERED THE QUAINT TOWN OF MEDORA, THE SOUTHERN GATEWAY TO THE THEODORE ROOSEVELT NATIONAL PARK, quite by chance. The town revolves around the legacy of Theodore Roosevelt in his early years, and the shows, comedy acts, restaurants, shops and museums are steps away from the Medora Campground we stayed at.
    The history on how the town has survived up till now is mind bending,……with a Frenchmen, a future President of the United States and a successful Industrialist involved.
    A “must do” event is to show up for the Medora Pitchfork Steak Fondue Buffet, prior to you attending the Medora Musical, which starts in the early evening. This show is performed in an amphitheater, formed into the side of one of the areas hillsides.

    Hey everyone,.....! Sorry for the wind noise and sound at times during this episode. We so LOVED this little town, that we decided to post this video about it, even though normally we would reject footage like this. Even with our giant "dead cat" wind muffs, the blowing noise got through. Sues bangs blowing around is proof!

      We thought the town was a fun little stop along the way. We look forward to doing the Pitchfork Fondue & Musical the next time we are passing thru!

      Thanks Dean. It killed me to post this because of the wind noise,..........but the town was just too cute to just move on tho the next video. We wanted folks to plan in a day or two in Medora. We sure are glad we did. We are hoping "most" people understand......

      @OurJourneyInMyles  Před 4 lety

      Thanks for watching! You are correct in picking up that we had no clue this place existed until a few days before we arrived! So glad we got to soak this tourist trap up,.....it is adorable.

    Looks well worth the ride over to Medora. Never would have thought to stop. Never heard anything about this place.
    Safe travels and good health.

      You are so right Curt. WE NEVER would have stopped here if someone wouldn't have clued us in. Sometimes places like this are just a great change of pace.

      Call me silly, but I really liked this town. All the Theodore Roosevelt education was handed to you on a platter. This is a great kid family friendly stop.

      Welcome aboard! If we take the northern route to CA in a few months, we will FOR SURE stop in Medora again! The Medora Musical Experience & Pitchfork Fondue is as fun as it gets in life,......

    So I am going to retire from the Fire Department ( LA.Co.FD) after forty-five years. And my Wife is retiring from Teaching After twenty-eight years. (L.A.U.S.D). We will be full time RV’ers. I thank you so much for all your videos and suggestions therein. When I retire next year, I will have required so much information that I may not be qualified to be call a newbie, Lol! Mark you have an in time since of humor, I simply love it!!! Thank again!!! And I’ll be watching.

      Best of luck! I think you are correct,........sitting in a chair studying RV's and RV Life is no different than being in the same campground for a year, that you will quickly learn many people do. They are sitting in their rig, dreaming and studying about living in a stick & brick, and getting out of RVing!

    We would never have thought to stop here, thanks for sharing. BTW, your voices would occasionally break up with some distortion as I watched this morning. Maybe my connection but the video was solid throughout. First time I have experienced this with your videos.

    • @OurJourneyInMyles
      @OurJourneyInMyles  Před 4 lety +1

      Hey Gene. We kind of knew that would be an issue, but the town was just such a gem to stubble on. We added a sound "disclaimer and apology" and pinned it to the first comment.

    Medora looks like a cool little town to visit. That buffet looked awesome. Was it all you can eat steak too? So when is Mark getting his drone and Sue getting her new iPad? 👍😎

    • @OurJourneyInMyles
      @OurJourneyInMyles  Před 4 lety +1

      The drone has been deferred to help pay for (6) tires in November. I will have a fun episode on that! I am going to have the Rettroband safety devices installed in the front tires on the rig as well. I'll get the iPad for Sue for Christmas, so don't tell her. The steak was NOT all you can eat, but it was GIANT! We split one steak, and we were stuffed. We love tourist trap towns like this!

    Looks like a memorable trip- added to my list of “places to see on the road.” There was a FB article a few weeks ago - “55 Small Towns to See in the US” - you might want to check it out for places to stop on your travels. Be safe!

    • @OurJourneyInMyles

    How did you like the campground? My husband and I really enjoy your videos.

    • @OurJourneyInMyles
      @OurJourneyInMyles  Před 4 lety +2

      It is nothing special,......clean and quiet,......not many trees,.....lots of pull thru spots,......has a community style pool a half a block along the entrance road. It is the LOCATION that makes it awesome because you are walking distance to the Town of Medora, and across the street from the Pitchfork Fondue and Musical. You are also less than a block from the entrance to the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, south unit. We would stay here again. Not sure if much else is available?
