today's adventure brings us to Arizona a
0:06
very gusty barren landscape at the
0:10
moment I like the fact that there's an
0:14
arrow pointing inward welcome everyone
0:18
whoa that's windy Adams the whoo here -
0:25
a dusty and blustery day the eighth and
0:28
final edition of this current
0:31
cross-country road trip where I go off
0:33
the beaten path stick to the back roads
0:36
and explore Americana I'm inviting you
0:40
to join me shall you staying off the
0:44
interstate and freeway system made my
0:47
entry at the point of the Duncan area
0:50
right around in there just gonna meander
0:53
through this little section staying away
0:57
from populated areas until I get to the
1:01
California State Line sure is beautiful
1:04
out here that landscape
1:08
granny Hawkins place personally never
1:12
met her and the only reason I know that
1:14
is because it's written there above the
1:16
porch the population is only a little
1:18
over a thousand but they do have a hotel
1:20
if you look closely there you'll see
1:23
they're buying aluminum cans for $0.50 a
1:25
pound
1:25
some remnants of the past about back in
1:28
the day you get some tasty bread right
1:30
there
1:36
artistic representation of what it was
1:36
like back in the 1950s around these
1:39
parts and still got some relics current
1:42
day from that timeframe as well
2:10
really does add of the ambience that
2:10
dust blowing by
2:53
no trouble with getting the flag to blow
2:53
today
3:13
some pets made out of mufflers oh yeah
3:13
it's pretty rocket
3:33
this thing's seen some years
3:33
deteriorating a little bit made
3:35
completely out of wood but still
3:38
standing strong here out here are the
3:39
elements
4:40
that's the wind blowing outside that you
4:40
can hear yeah
4:54
oh nice yeah you would have never known
4:54
this is out here by looking around the
4:56
front nobody has ever seen that
5:06
something so the backside of it has the
5:13
date and the post office yes written on
5:15
the back of it that that is actually the
5:17
back side but on the other side it has
5:21
but that was two meals bread that was
5:24
before it became Levi Strauss and we
5:27
just mental debark wrote in a Pure Food
5:31
Bank oh this was originally on
5:33
Scottsdale the Brown Derby and what was
5:36
the name of that place
5:37
there's a bar e in the safari hand and
5:40
then you just moved it over here and
5:43
that a1 sign came from the old store
5:54
yeah when I think a wanna take a steak
5:54
sauce
5:56
gallop that's my gout gallop is where
5:59
that was and this music ending
6:07
you're 66 or 40 whichever you design
6:07
called and I know most the signs in town
6:10
have been stolen so that's like that's a
6:12
pretty valuable piece right there so you
6:13
got this from Gallup also
6:20
you don't see those too often in 666
6:20
they can feel complete
6:23
when I think of a phone booth I think of
6:24
Superman let's say immediately what I
6:27
think of as Clark Kent switching over to
6:28
Superman inside of them
7:11
it's incredibly beautiful out here
7:11
sometimes you just kind of pull over and
7:14
take a gander I love it
7:34
slightly different vibe this Miami
7:38
versus the one most people recognize
7:58
I can count on one hand how many times
7:58
I've seen a pyramid of cats with a beam
8:01
of light shining through it does it
8:03
happen too often also gives me some
8:05
Venice vibes with these bridges going
8:09
over ok there's no water but the bridges
8:14
are here
8:47
feel like these could just come tumbling
8:47
down at any moment
8:48
these rock formations quite a few have
8:52
dropped right there would make sense to
8:54
stay away from the base although if it
8:58
did tumble down like these it could
9:01
could roll over towards me
9:19
not to rocky here nothing but fields
9:19
there are some mountains you know way
9:22
off on the horizon but in this exact
9:23
spot just fields and a steakhouse that
9:29
no longer exists I'd like to point out
9:32
the size tallness of this cactus
9:35
probably about 20 feet give or take it's
9:39
huge
10:14
cattle guard
10:14
officers of the law around here drive
10:17
different vehicles than what I'm used to
10:19
never would expect that pulling you over
10:22
you never know never know around these
10:25
parts
10:39
if a local here gives you directions
10:39
make sure make sure you don't go down
10:41
Wes no-name Street you know there's a
10:44
difference between East and the opposite
10:46
to be very confusing but you know
10:49
there's a couple different no-name
10:51
streets
11:46
this kind of give us perspective this
11:46
painting on the rock
11:47
quartzite the last town right here
11:50
before the state line of California
11:53
they've got the entire proximity drawn
11:57

12:03

12:06
