Great video!! I love Virginia City!! Two quick stories. First one is a story of coming here with my family in the early 1970's. We arrived in the afternoon. A storm followed us, from Lake Tahoe. The sage smelled wonderful. When we got to town, it was pouring! Really pouring. Those rain gutters were full and pouring out into main street, one was filling up the back of a pickup truck. Lightning and thunder was really bad too! Seeing the valley light up was spectacular, as it lit up the night sky. As a kid, it was awesome and a bit scary. I'll never forget that memory. Story 2. I went to visit Virginia City, by myself, maybe 5 years ago. After touring main street, I went to the cemetery. When I arrived, the wind started to pick up and stayed windy the whole time I was there. As I left the gates and walked to my car, the wind died down to nothing. It was a bit creepy!
First time I went to Virginia City was in 1962. I loved it then and I still love it. The cemetery is fascinating....actually many cemeteries.
Very nice. Who doesn't love Virginia City!?! I went back and watched an old Virginia City episode on the Randomland channel. It's worth a watch if you haven't seen it or even if it has been a while. Kind of fun hearing the old Randomland ditty.
30 minute new randomland video... today must be my birthday
That town looks amazing!!! đ
Wow awesome episode! I love these Old West extended history lessons. Very unexpected history on something I never heard about before, The Boston Saloon. I can never have enough Old West History so please keep it coming =] Thanks
I love your travels, it's literally inspired me to travel to historic towns like these all over the west. Keep up the amazing work.
I love Virginia City. I spent hours wandering the cemeteries, I didnât even cover 1/4 of them.
The Shady Dell, Tombstone, camping with your boy and now Nevada? It's great to see you back out at it!
I stayed at the Dell this past weekend, and due to major thunderstorms Bisbee dropped down to 62 degrees Saturday night. It was heaven!
Great vid, Justin. Loved the Boston Saloon story especially. Appreciate you, man. You and Allie be safe!
Thanks for the history lesson, Justin. I'm glad you guys are back out on the road again.
Very cool video, history is so amazing!Goes to show, no matter what color you are it takes hard work and determination to become successful. I love America! đȘđ»đșđž
A little piece of trivia for you.
As you mentioned, the Comstock Load helped the Union win the Civil War, but also, Nevada is the âBattle Bornâ state because the United States annexed the territory during the war so it could use the silver to fund the war.
Dang it I was waiting for you to say the oooooooooooooooooooolllllllllddddddddddd west!!
Nothing better than old haunted hotels! Especially in the Wild West!
Thank you so much for making all of our days better! I donât know how I would survive this quarantine I didnât have you here! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the Virginia City history. One of your best episodes, ever.
We missed you. Excellent video here Also, please include your son in more videos. He is smart and funny like you
Thank you so much for sharing your Virginia City adventures. I have also been fascinated with this town and Iâm so glad you went to the cemetery and the Silver Queen Hotel. Really fun video here. Cheers from Old Highway 66 in central Oklahoma.
Well done! It's good to see that the town is starting to be preserve more and taking care of it's history.
I was there in the early 60's. My best friend from high school 's father was co-owner in a silver claim under the town near a Chinese cemetery. The summer after we graduated, he took us to visit the claim to see a section the tunnel that had been excavated and re-shored. the original had collapsed from inadequate shoring back in history.
Another historic story of Virginia city is the Sutro Tunnels tunnels built by Adolph Sutro to drain the mines. He he became one of the richest men in world in that period and spread his wealth in San Francisco.
No matter what they are, these videos always seem to make my day
Yeah, the baby graves creeped me out too. They made us tour that cemetery in the third grade.
THIS WAS SOME INCREDIBLE HISTORY! Loved it Justin đ„ș
Great to see you back on the road!..Im on island with no where to go, so, these videos allow me to escape isolation!!.
Justin and Allie ,
Thank you! So great and well done! Yâall captured Ghost Steps!
Aloha from Texas,
Dr. Liam Sullivan Stone & Master Alison
Virginia City is my favorite town in Nevada. I remember going as a child and being freaked out by the cemetery
The lovely little lady made this video worth watching. Virginia City's babydoll.
Justin, I am so glad you got a hold of Joe!!!! Wish I could have bought you a drink while you were here. Thanks for coming back!
Love Virginia City! Use to live in Reno and that was my favorite place to go! Check out the "Genoa" Saloon...oldest "watering hole" in Nevada
All I wanted was a Pepsi! Just one Pepsi, and she wouldnât give it to me!
But for real, that was a great episode, Justin. Thanks for sharing all of the homework you clearly do before your trips. Great, fun, and informative historical content, and not just retelling the same old myths.
I've got to visit there someday. I've always wanted to. I can almost imagine a dirt street and wagons going through the town. I love staying in old hotels. Very comforting. I stayed in the Royal Carriage Inn in Jamestown and really enjoyed in. I love the oooooooooooooold west. Always have and it's wonderful that you are exploring again. You should visit it. They have a railway park and you can even ride the train. I wanted to but was limited on time so I couldn't. You really should visit since it's one of the gold rush towns. I want to return one day and just spend a few days there exploring.
I learn so much history from your vlogs. Thanks again!!
Great episode! Love the history and the spookiness! Thanks!
Well,...... you had me at "the trains aren't running" ! Darn it!
Love love love Virginia City, thanks so much for bringing it to us!!!
I remember I was watching a Episode of Ghost Adventures & that's where Zak Bagans & his crew went to go film an Episode at that exact Haunted Hotel.
Yea it was like the first premier episode it was like a movie kind of though I remember that they supposedly caught that detailed apparition walking in front of the camera here
Love this!
Thank you for the wide range of history you have on your channel!
Julio strikes again! Love it! đ»đđ Hope to see you visit this place again soon!
I literally just got back from a trip from Virginia city. My wife and I got married at the silver queen hotel 2 years ago and we try to go back every year
Excellent video, Justin. The historical context and significance is fascinating! Thanks for sharing another great adventure with us!
Thanks for the history lesson. I've enjoyed VA City many many times and always love it. Be sure to go in that candy store. The school is neat too. It's been 20 years since I've been there now...time to get back there. Glad to see you doing this type videos again. Keep it up. Ally is still lovely.
Wow! I love Virgina City!
Havent been there in 46 years....I can still here the song by the Hues Corporation "Rock the Boat" on the radiođđđđđ
Justin!!!! thank you,I love Virginia City,I lived in and near Carson City for 20yrs,great to see it again,and the history on the Boston Saloon that I did not know about,and even have been to the grave yard a few times,again thank you!!
My favorite one! Thanks
Iâve been there! Such a beautiful place. Fact story of my moms side of the family, my great great great grandmother went to school there! Love it
i learned more about racial inequality and representation in the west from this video than in all my years of school....im a junior in college so that's pretty embarrassing on our schools here
23:44-23:52 I just simply loved this.
Thank you! Another great video! Love when you go to Virginia City!
The Julio Haunting is hilarious!!! Excellent video!!!
OMG that was awesome! Is there any place that you don't know a whole bunch about? Thanks for the history lesson. I have to say, the whole haunted aspect of your stay was well played, really had me going. Or was it real?
Very happy to hear you have wedding plans for later this year. Best wishes on that. You are a great couple.
Awesome ,I appreciate the history lesson and views .

Hey Justin, I love your videos!!
This is added to my list of places to visit now. Thank you!!
At 5:38 in the parking lot right behind of the Bucket of Blood Saloon is where black owned saloon was located. In July 2000, they did an archeology dig there when I was visiting before the area was paved over for a parking lot. They found old artifacts like a pair of children's high button shoes, a gold coin, broken bottles, etc. I cannot remember all what they found, but it was interesting.
Hi Justin, glad to see more of your videos.
Super glad I found your channel a few years ago! I feel like I'm always on an adventure with you guys. Been on a binge-spree and luckily you uploaded today. Take care, Justin and Ally! All the love from the Philippines! :)
Hi Justin thx for the content I love it
Loved it!
So cool
Wow what a cool video Justin scarred
I always learn something watching your videos Justin thank you đ·
Great video! Loved it.
Hi there Justin! Iâm an archeology student up at UNR, & was so thrilled to see the shoutout to our department when you discussed the Boston Saloon. In my Nevada Archeology class this past semester, we actually talked about the findings at that site. Itâs so cool! Thank you for exploring Virginia City and doing all that you do!
I knew you were setting something up with the knocking, but I was legitimately freaked out for a second haha
That is HOME to me †most welcoming town ive ever been in.
Really happy more people are discovering this little town and its history. I always wanted you to visit this town and make a video †thanks man!
Thanks for taking us to Virginia City, Nevada â€âĄââ§
Another place on my list of places to go once I finish building the inside of my van next year đ
Awesome history! I am planning a family vacation to Nevada and this is a must I think! Thanks for all your research!
So Cool! Thanks for sharing! The last time visited was during the big earthquake in the 80's.
Nice history lesson Justin! Enjoyed.
Hey Justin! We love your videos! You are great and hilarious! The Julio plot twist was great! I was wondering what music you used in your videos. My 13 year old son makes a lot of home movies and enjoys making videos himself and wants to know the music you used in this video. Thanks!
I LOOOOVED THIS VIDEO. Thank you
Thank you for the Black history lesson. Love it!! #welldone
Man I got freaked out when he went in to the hotel

We love going to Virginia City all the time. Just had a photoshoot inside the old Sharon House (not opened to the public) over memorial day weekend, and going to Gold Hill Hotel for my birthday dinner next week! It's so amazing. Love this place so much! â€
