First view i have been through many times. My family lives e near by in Cheyenne Wells. They started the John Deer store. It was named after my Aunt and my Mother. It was called Kay Jan.

I Was Thinking I Was Gonna Be On Here But Ennis, TX Ain't On Here.

MY dad was born and raised in Paradise . I visited my grandma and aunt many times there in the 60's..

Such a wonderful 'reminder'. Thank you very much. I had the priviledge to live in the outskirt of White Deer and attending White Deer High School from 1976-1977 as an AFS exchange student. Still being in touch with my second host family - and still very grateful. Thank you for producing this portrait.

God Bless America. What a beautiful nation. Nice to see you stop at Ayres Natural Bridge. I grew up out that way. I sure do miss Wyoming.

My home. ❤ It was a wonderful place to grow up.

Great videos very informative and checking out the small towns is excellent 👍 Thanks again

Im from sulphur well and im glad you visited but anyone is welcome to Sulphur well reserve a spot over at the Lighthouse Good food but the park it does get flooded when it rains alot but theres still a park after .. crazy right Just down the creek is a cabin that one of my family members own Its a quiet and chill place to be honest.

what happen to part 2?

I grew up in Cimarron KS but also lived next to Highway 50 in Lenexa Ks and Arlington VA. Really fun to see the tiny towns that were commonplace names for us in western Kansas when I was young.

Joe, a little less caving in , neglected houses, and more of the nicer end of town with better roads would be nice for me. Kansas was just pastures, i guess that is how they all end up. Like the drone work.

Miami Vice! With the Don!

Weve lived here about a year now, moved from another town nearby, but i have to say we absolutely love living in White Deer. Its so quiet and everyone is so friendly. We love it here!

Great video. We moved to White Deer in 2021 from New Zealand to build hot rods in the home of the hot rod. We work out of the White Deer Motors building. It is a great town and we are fortunate to call it home.

The sad part of small town USA is when kids grow up and go to college there is nothing at home to make a living.

Nearly all my family is from that area, if not that town itself. My family had a cafe there from the 1950's till about the 2010's. Fewer and fewer of them remain. That screen printing shop downtown belongs to my uncle. I got a lot of love for Waynoka. I really wish I had tons of funds to do something there a bit like what you might find in Gruene TX.

White Deer has a second cemetery, south west of town on County Road Y, about a mile-ish south of town. It’s a neat little cemetery too, lots of interesting & old headstones.

Best small American town!!!

Use to live there. Left in 1995.

wow what a great place nice to see thank you

SHOUTOUT TO MY MY WISEGUY

I just started planning a trip to drive Route 66 from Los Angeles to Chicago in April 2026. Your video helped me fill in a lot of areas that I would have missed. I was also surprised to learn that Route 66 actually ends at Mel's Drive-In. Thanks for taking the time and effort to produce this informative video. I can't wait to get on the road.

This guy doesn't seem to respond to commenters. Apparently, he doesn't need commenters. So I deleted my comment and the "like".

What an awesome trip....thank you for sharing it with us!

As an ignorant Aussie, I don't know much about the trek of the pioneers but after watching your amazing, fantastic video, I'm keen to learn more. Seeing the kind of terrain they had to contend with, it's amazing the mortality rate was as low as it was however I wonder how many marriages were intact by the time they got to Oregon city. The endurance and optimism that fuelled them must have been unceasing. Truly amazing stuff. If you can recommend a decent book about the journey the pioneers took to kick off my reading (there are so many), it would be appreciated. Thanks so much for this wonderful artifact.

I am new too your videos love them. I may have missed it, have you been to Norway? also I heard of a ghost town called YUMA that I have not been able too find. I live in Colorado however travel Kansas whenever I can. stay safe on your travels.

put a guitar,fiddle,slapbass and harmonica on stage in Mildred, I will be there.

I was there as they were doing some renovations during the spring a few years back. It truly is a beautiful Presidential museum. It is a very pretty town

I've ridden thru in my travels. But it was a tad bit warmer. Liked the grey hound museum very interesting. That death go round looked very unique.

if I remember right the 38th parallel (the dmz) goes thru the EISENHOWER museum

Awesome video!!! Russell Stover was born up in Osborne County close to the town of Alton, KS. There is a historical sign where his home used to be way out in the middle of nowhere. Also, in the cemetery that you were in, if you would have continued north on the main road and followed it to the end and turned east you would have the historical grave marker of 2 county police officers that were killed in the line of duty - interesting story on the marker.

Should've stopped and saw jo at Jerico in Chickasaw county. A bar and church and co-op. But it's unincorporated so that's fitting why it didn't make the list. Great video!

I've been to all these towns, been exploring AZ for 50 years.

As a 6th grader at Dodge Elementary School, I remember going to Abilene for a field trip. We went to the Eisenhower museum and library. I especially remember going though his home. I'm over 70 now, but have very fond memories of going to Abilene.Thanks for the memories.

Right on ! I have a quaint country place, 14 miles north of Council Grove. Don't live there yet, but I'm about to get the plumbing and heat restored in the house. Let me know if you want to 'crash' for a while. It would be just you and your crew. The 80 acres bumps up to the Federal Wildlife Reserve at the Council Grove Federal Reservoir. It's 'criitter paradise'. We'll have a RV hook-up within the year.

Judge Roy Bean area ..?. It really has some great stories etc..

Thank you for the Charlie clip from Antones… Texas died with Charlie. Texas Music was uniquely American, uniquely Texan, but those things are all gone now, and so is Charlie. So we are moving to Oklahoma. May God find it in His heart to redeem our land.

The Eisenhowers wanted to be buried in Abilene, Kansas. That speaks volumes. I will absolutely be visiting there. THANK YOU. Just love your channel's content. You do a great job.

This was breathtaking with the snow, blue skies, and old buildings.....really gorgeous. I haven't been up there since high school, and im sure I didn't appreciate it then the way I will now, so ought to head up there.....and didn't know about the greyhound museum, but it would be worth the drive just to go give that sweet puppy a hug! The KS Department of Tourism ought to pay you to show your content - how many of us watch your videos and then want to go to each place you've gone? 😊😊 Lots of us, I think!

Love small towns

❤ love it

The big thing you left out was the Seelye Mansion. You showed it at the end. ( Big White House on Buckeye) It is really worth the time to see. I know of no where else you can tour a house for 1903, I think, that has all it's original furnishings. I spent 60 years in Abilene. It was a great little town growing up in the 60s and 70s. Grew up a 1/4 mile for the NGA. I can remember when they ran live rabbits for the coursing. Not a lot of the little town left now days. Kind of sad really, but everything changes I guess.

I've been by, but never got to stop. Need to put it on my to visit list. Thank you as always.

Both Evergy and Sprint have origins in Abilene. A Mr. Brown started a local phone company that became part of Sprint. To power the phones he started a power company the became part of KPL and later Evergy.

Finally made it to Cow Town! Great to see. Our great President needs some recognition. Went through the museum as a Kansas History class in 8th grade. I live close . 😊

The most famous bus line Greyhound is named after the racing dog.
