wonder hussy, wonderhussie, wonder hussie, wonder hussey, wonderhussey
I’m a professional storyteller, and I appreciate your impromptu storytelling. Very epic!!!
That piece of machinery loads hay into the back of a wagon. Being in the desert you have to have irrigation to make hay grow and thats what the pipe is for.
Gosh, I think you may have set a new record with your "Tale of the Jorgensons". Well done, Sarah!
Don't bother with the scammer prize B. S. That is not Wonderhussy!!!
Quite an imagination.
You have found your future. Your storytelling on these homesteads and locations are superb Sarah. Your a winner young lady
I would never imagine anyone listening to me rambling on for nearly 30min about anything on a CZcams channel. Yet, here I am watching who knows how many of Sarah's videos.
Thanks always Sarah, keep em coming.
You absolutely were made to have a CZcams channel...OMG, the stories you come up with and the inflection in your voice as you tell them keep me riveted to the end. Thanks for another desert adventure. Love you always!
That is a Hay Loader. It loads loose hay onto a wagon. Those tines reciprocate up, back down forward. Driven by the Wheels. Pipe may be Smoke Pipe for Chimney. Other pipe to pipe water to a trough for livestock and home? Nice to find that stream. Any Square Nails?
Don't worry about snakes. We are all watching carefully for them. Great tour and investigative, and speculative reporting.
That hay loader and the Whore of Babylon cost Olaf Jr his arm!
and snake loader in wrong parts of the west. Used one on oat hay.
Pipe is for irrigation. Would need water for a hayfield.

Sarah, your imagination know no bounds... LMAO... LOVE IT!!!! 😂
Part of what I like most of "Wonderhussy's" channel is her choice of words or vocabulary.
😍
Best story ever Sarah. Enjoy all your videos because you never know what story you've got for us. Be safe and well. Thanks
Your imagination is priceless! It just takes a thought and runs with it! What would be odd, if you could ever find out, if any of that story would end up being true! Wouldn’t that be wild!! Stay safe Miss!!❤️❤️❤️
lol great story😂❤
The most amazing thing about this abandoned homestead was the stonebuilt cabin. You wouldn't have to do too many repairs, to make it livable again.And you have your essentials close by.I thought that stack of branches and twigs was made from an animal, as someone mentioned in comments . That was funny your take on who lived in this area, great story telling. Keep up the great content SarahJ.😎🙂👌👍✌
with all what's going on right now it would not surprise me if someone decides to buy up that property due to the water supply. a large dugout lined with plastic so the water does not seep away and a person would have water for the dry part of the season. if i were young and healthy I'd move there and definitely fix that stone house
@@carmichaelmoritz8662 I have to agree with you Carmichael. If i was living their and had money to spend i wouldn't hesitate to buy it.😎🙂👍
WOW! You're the Wonder Woman of Nevada!
I used to live in Nevada, and now I'm in a RoadTrek RV travelling the Old West of Oregon.
This is one of your best stories ever ! The cabin was so well built i just wish we knew more about the family
Thanks for another great video! I love the old buildings. When you talked about the lintel on the nicer stone cabin (13:30) - did you see the lizard walking on the wall around the left side of the lintel? As you walked into that cabin you can see the saw marks or kerfs on the door jambs. They look life straight kerfs made by a power driven pit saw. This type of saw was used in some places as early as around 1840’s, but most places in the US this type of saw was used later - starting around the end of the 1800’s and you see a ton of wood with this type of kerfs in old houses built in the first two decades of the 20th century. (My house built in 1909 in Wisconsin has them.) So, I am guessing that place was built in the early 20th century as I think that area saw an influx of people and building about that time, but I am just guessing here, as I am not up on the local history of that area.
i went to school and waisted a ton of money ill never get back just to know more about learning and teaching.. for me the peaple who tought me things were always my heros .. the best teachers are the ones who tell it like a story teller .. maybe i should have just watched CZcams to learn how to teach .. i learn so much from youtubers and wonderhussy is one of the best of the best story tellers .
Wonderhussy let's her imagination run wild! LOL
That thick walled stone cabin looked very interesting for sure
Thank you again for sharing your adventures.
Hi Doodlebug!
Hell-o @Doodlebug Lori: What's the WORD? Happy Wednesday!
The Possession of Joel Delaney is a 1970 horror novel by American writer Ramona Stewart. Its plot follows a woman who comes to believe her brother has been possessed by the spirit of a serial killer. It was adapted into the 1972 feature film of the same name starring Shirley MacLaine and Perry King. Wikipedia. I read this years ago...
I think the old stone building with the steel pipe was a Swedish sauna and on her return to the family farm Meredith used the sauna to draw the poison from her wasted body while reading the religious books. After feeling better and more alive than she had in years, she went out in the barn and repaired the abandoned tractor, she felt great pride in her accomplishment as she attached the tractor to the hay gatherer! There was a giant clatter as the machine came to life but she had no fear mostly due to the peyote she had found in the yard and ingested. With a final thought of self loathing she stepped from the barn roof, into the hay gatherer!
Perhaps a sewer pipe they can flush their poops out of the place, that would be my number 1 project with such a large pipe like that to make it feel like a home. Buckets of water flushing it down. #1 project. But that pipe seemed to be not well done, they probably had a poop issue.
Quite the interesting yarn you weave 😂 that was one amazing cabin and you certainly know how to tell a wonderful story 👍☮️🇺🇲
Hello.....I love your videos of Nevada. Moved there (Reno) in '69 and then to Florida in 2011.Nice to see places in the desert that I never visited!
Probably not so much a homestead as a line shack for a larger ranch.
@O.N.L. Big ranches with thousands of acres to look after found it made little sense to operate solely out of the main ranch; where hours were wasted going to & from the outlying areas; especially when your hands were on horseback and in bad weather. So, small cabins or 'line shacks' were established where the hands could live for a few days (or weeks in the winter) to look after livestock in remote areas.
All
You had to have to make a town back then was s store w/ post office & a bar and a cafe. I’m shocked to see you haven’t run across any snakes yet. Especially near water.
Perhaps your best imagination impromptu creative story telling since you started
Your zeal for adventure is incredible. As is you're in real time narration. Completely engrossing. So fun.
I just love how you can make up stories just out of the blue,you could probably write a book .
Glad you found the creek! Great adventure! Thanks as always!
That "huge metal pipe" in the rock cabin may be a heating system. It may be connected to a fire pit.
Great videos...love them all..very educational
What an impressive cabin, with flowing water to boot! Bring up a Starlink system and I'd never leave
My mother's Dad was born in the late 1800's. I was told he was a Carpenter, no electric tools then. They had an outhouse, no running water. Just Wells, and farm animals and a huge garden.
My Mom is 87 and her childhood home had an outhouse.... Her grandfather was the last blacksmith employed by the city of Detroit Michigan.
Geez, SJ, way to bring the mood down with that entertaining, but mostly sad, story. But wow, great cabins!!! Beautiful job.
Creativity is everything, Sarah. Thanks for your stories.
This really looks like an abandoned movie set. Once the film is shot, they just left the location set there. They probably shot the interiors back in the studio. That's my hunch.
Oh my gawd... story tell'n wonder woman are YOU! That 1800's rock cabin is amazing, and you witnessed it! Thanks for this epic video capture and share!
Cant Wait Till Wednesday for Your Next Adventure !!!
That looks like a pack rat nest at 8:29 in the cabin.
IMO - that last stone building could very easily be reclaimed and made useful - maybe even short-term livable. However, just because there's running mountain snow meltwater - doesn't mean that is potable water. To purify and make creek water fit for human consumption requires specialized equipment. There does not appear to be electricity or a well on this property shown in this video adventure. Very interesting find Sarah.
OR you could simply buy a LIFE STRAW for $25 and use that to get potable water.
Solar power and Water filtration
@@briantimbs429 Oh yeah, let's mouth suck up 100 gallons a day to keep livestock satiated, and then there are the issues of hygiene and cleaning. Yeah boy, sign me for that!
@@richardrichard9953 - would that site even be worth the investment of such equipment? We don't know if the land would grow crops, [ more water usage ] or if this high desert area is conducive for animals and fowl to survive the summer heat and the brutally cold winters. I have a hunch that the "Swedish family" tried to endure and hang on against every onslaught that nature could hurl at them - but the last straw was just that, and they abandoned the property.
@@faerieSAALE To be fair, your original comment, to which Brian replied, just mentioned potable water to make the place livable, not starting up a working ranch.
Hello, Sarah. Great video. I hope you and your sister had a fun Memorial Day.
I love that you take us to so many abandoned places! Once we are able to leave our full time jobs, we are absolutely going to be running around finding the amazing places just like you ❤️ I don't think I could ever match your story telling ability though. Lol Your speculative theories are always so much fun! Thanks for taking us along
Love your story, about the Jorganson’s. You should write a screenplay, Sarah.
I love love love story time with Wonderhussy.
I had an accident can't walk by cycling entertaining videos you make thank you
Absolutely LOVE your stories🥰
The purpose of the thick stone walls is stability. If they were only one or two rows thick a strong burst of wind could blow them over
Ever think of putting your homestead tales to print? You come up with such awesome backstories for your explores? I'd buy it in a New York second........absolutely LOVE them!!!!
Wow! Amazing place. But I have to agree with another comment. Probably a remote camp for a large ranch....and a secret rendezvous for pelvic relations between ranch kids and their
heart throbs. Thanks for a really great walk around the place, Love...and for the great story at the end. Love ya, Darlin'.
You may consider Bishops Castle near Pueblo, Colo. Very interesting stone castle and story! ❤
Great story. The old machine is the equivalent of a modern 'forager/harvester'. it would be towed behind a trailer and would pick up pre cut grass/hay/straw/wheat and transfer it off the ground into the trailer. We had an abandoned one on our farm in the uk in the 1980's. I would guess they were used in the 50's to 70's.
Winding a tale. Awesome.
Squatters were people who Ilegall'y moved unto Unocuppied land along the frontier and claimed that land as their own!!
Who doesn’t love wonder hussy story time ;)
I had no idea there are so many places out there. Be careful and not step on a rusty nail. Interesting video!
What an imagination!
I've realized that Wonderhussy is an "acquired taste", but one that grows on you until you become a fan. :)
I've been in old houses that had layers of wallpaper a half inch thick...
My house had 7 layers. One owner. Probably over about 10-15 years. Then they added electricity (twisted wires hung on nails) and spacers, and finally paneling. Slowly bringing it into the 20th century. 21st will have to wait.
@@russbell6418 Knob and Tube surface wiring! That was very common in the past.
Some friends of mine had an old farmhouse with 3/8 to 1/2 inch layer of old wallpaper. No idea how old the place was.
That stone cabin was wild! You realize people probably don’t even see it there so it will last another 50 years! I’d live there NOW!
I’m gonna guess hell raisin’ field drinkin’ Meredith J caught a slow moving train down Highway 66, stopping when her luck ran out at the future home of Bert’s country dancing, conveniently located between Hackberry and Peach Springs just off old 66 across from the 76 station🤠. She married old Bert and together they country danced their days away to “Is anybody going to San Antone” until the eight track jammed
I really enjoyed your story telling. The buildings were cool too. Looking forward to the next video
THANK YOU SARAH,SAFE TRAVELS..
That old stone cabin was the coolest old building I have ever seen. What an awesome place this must have been. Thanks for showing us this. Almost as good as being there Happy Trials 👍😎😁
This is just a wonderful video. Love the book you found. Cindy should do a drawing of you. You find the best locations to do awesome videos. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures with us today from Henrico County Virginia
Interesting old run down areas throughout the desert and mountains. Don't ever bring your black light on any of these outings. Some things are best unknown! Thanks for another wild video adventure.
That old hay machine was to pick up rows of raked hay up to a trailer so it could be hand stacked on trailer with pitch fork.
SCAMMER... NOT WONDERHUSSY.....BEWARE.
Back in the day there was alot more ground water than there is now. That place was probably a lush fertile wetland that was able to sustain humans and range animals. It looked like a bunkhouse for ranch hands tending to....whatever. Interesting find Wonderhussy. Thnak you.
Great story Huss
Please write a novel! I love your imagination! And you need to do the audio version so I can listen to it? Love your style!✌🏼
They didn’t leave, they died. Look for bones!
Meredith was my uncle's step daughter. He was able to convince her to turn her life around and for many years she worked at the Events Dept at the Scientologist's compound on Franklin Ave.
Omg she knows Tom Cruise.
spammer scammer reply here! NOT our Wonderhussy!
I was thinking all the work to collect all those rocks, then use them as a puzzle to create such a nice home.
Would not take much to get the old stone cabin going....those 2+ ft thick walls definitely keep you cool in summer and warm in winter ...beautiful area , the view of the mountains is fantastic
Honestly here for the personals by Wunderhussy segment!! New channel vibes! But we like the 80s personals before the internet!
Wow 😮. I feel bad for Meredith! Poor gal. 😳
That stone cabin is exceptional!
Omg you're killin me ...
Laughing so much.
Good one!!!
That carpet really tied the room together....man.
You're an absolute riot !!! When you're in storytelling mode you are genius !!! In this episode you also have the genesis of a kick ass heavy metal tune. Of all my subs yours is the one I most anxiously await.
That old stone building with no grafitti is very interesting. How did they make the morter to hold the rocks together out of the dirt?
so interesting....thnx Sarah...
That...is an amazing abandoned homestead!
Stunning!
❤
What a great little find you found 🥰💜
The lizard at 13:30 - left and near the top of the doorway 😄🦎❤️
I'm sure Meredith Jorgensen is living it up in San Francisco!
I love your channel so much. Thank you for all of your exploring videos.
Thanks again for the great adventure and story telling, what a creative mind you have! Looking forward to more.
so, darn cool !! Think of the time, just to find the stone, then place them that "intricately"...
A lot of families have a Meredith. One can only hope they find their tribe and flourishes.
The Hussy of Wonderland
You could be riding on a seven headed turtle. Look both ways before crossing the road!!! Love your style
You should write a book. You make up interesting stories.
love the wunderhussy story time
My family is from Norge and Sweden, and strange that any of us would seek such a hot area to live. Most of us that came here in the mid- 1800's, stayed in Wisconsin all the way to Penn. and NY (where I am..upstate) for the cooler weather. But hey, to each their own.
You certainly have an imagination.. Love it 👍👍
That's a great property - I could easily bring that stone cabin back to life....
Sarah you sure have a good imagination! Love it take care please be safe!❤✌👌😍
Gorgeous peace of mind 🦋
Love love love that stone cabin !! And nice to see no graffiti! Good story sounds about right 😄
Cool digs there at that place!
Flatten out those old blankets. Children can sleep there. The kids could haul stones and dig for minerals by daylight. Good times.
Loved the Tale of the Jorgensons. There's a book in you waiting to be written !
