I grew up west of Wheeles, Ok. Went to church at both the Mexhoma and Wheeless church. Played on that mary go round as a child and had family events at the comunity building. You showed the Greens grave sight, that is my Family. Green,Berry, Straub, Odorizzi all my family. I hava family in both Wheeless and Mexhoma Cemitaries. I went to Felt Ok unitl 3rd grade, then Boise City 4th -6th grade. My oldest sister graduated from Felt with 3 in her class. When my parents divorsed I lived in the Community housing in felt for a bit and would shoot pigeons and doves with my bb gun at the grain bins across the street. Thank you for visiting and taking the time to make these videos. I really enjoyed watching. I only get to go about once a year for memorial day.

I grew up in Cimarron County. on the curve that turns north between Boise City and Kenton. Went to High School with Jane. Kind of sad that the area has regressed in population, but people have to make a living. It was a good place to grow up. Some fond memories of places and people. Thanks for doing this series. It's a different way to live from the bustle and concrete.

When I was a kid we lived 60 miles south of this area, in the Texas panhandle. We would play Felt in basketball. We left in 1976 when I was 14. I went back to the area for their all school reunion for the first time in 2019. They treated me like I never left. The people in this area are the nicest people in the U.S.

It was a crazy ride to Liberal, KS on Hwy 54 with the wind blowing us back into Kansas!

Instead, I was thinking of the fictitious Mineral City where the Roy Rogers Show was filmed. I used to watch Roy and Dale on TV as a child.

I enjoyed this. My great-grandfather, Frank Dale Healy, ranched cattle at the Healy Bros. Ranch about 16 miles from Beaver City and was the Sheriff there, a U.S. Deputy Marshal and Register of the Land Office in Woodward, OK before his death in 1904 His wife, Frank Belle (Dow) Healy served as U.S. Commissioner and Postmistress. Our family has a small, dedicated section at the Jones and Plummer Trail Museum in Beaver, OK. According to my family's memoirs, compiled into book form by my brother, Frank Dale Healy IV, titled "They Called it Cimarron - Settling the West, Padre Island to No Man's Land," the conditions were difficult and lawlessness was common. Such beautiful country. I hope to visit someday. Thank you for this informative video!

Dr Leland Bement has compiled mountains of interesting research in the panhandle. The Cooper Site is an additional perk worthy of checking out if you're heading that way from central Oklahoma.

Really interesting video. I grew up in SE Oklahoma but it is a complete different area. My earth science professor said that Oklahoma is unlike other states in that it is not part of a region. Not West, Not midwest, not south. Instead OK is divided into four diffferent regions. Indeed, if you ever go West on I40 then just past El Reno everything changes and it looks like TX panhandle, New Mexico, etc. I can imagine that Cimarron County has hot winds out of the South during the Summer months and COLD winds out of the North after a big front passes through. They had to be tough people who decided to live there.

Mexhoma may not of had any traffic, but there was a bird that was "busting it's buttons" with the way it was singing in the background. It certainly let us know that you were out in the country. That is certainly wide open territory that has a beauty of it's own. I can see why it draws some people to live their lives there. The historical aspects of the area is wonderful and interesting. It looks like a wonderful area to visit and see, especially since there are no pressure from a large population rushing around in their normal pursuit of life. I fear you may not come back and continue showing us the rest of our Mid America world that we live in. We will find you as a hand at the ranch, tea ging those large jackrabbits how to run fast and jump higher! Thank you for another great episode. Cannot wait to see the rest of the area.

I wonder what happened to the brite children of Garrett, Oklahoma, an eight-year-old, a four-year-old, and a one year-old all dying within a month’s time. 1907 - Too soon to be the Spanish flu, too late to be an Indian attack, maybe yellow fever or some other malady. Anyways, it must’ve been the most devastating thing ever, I noticed the parents weren’t listed on the grave they must’ve left the area. God bless them.

They all died of diphtheria which is extremely contagious and very deadly for young children. The parents are both buried there too. The cause of death must have been inscripted on the headstone somewhere. I googled Garret ok cemetery and it listed everyone buried there and the inscriptions on the headstones. 18:27

That part of Oklahoma is so far west that many people in that county unofficially observe the Mountain Time Zone, because the people there are more closely connected to nearby communities in New Mexico and Colorado, rather than the rest of Oklahoma. Cimarron County doesn't even look like the rest of Oklahoma! The land out there looks much more like the High Plains of Colorado and New Mexico than the rest of Oklahoma.

​@@sherriganske4292Just travel west to Iowa, and you will find a bunch of gravel roads! But if you find a road not graveled, do not take a dirt road if it has recently rained, or you may end up walking. I grew up and lived in Louisa County, Iowa, and southeast Iowa has plenty of gravel roads. Enjoy the dust!

And they say there is no room in this country for prisons. I say Cimarron Co OK would be a great place for a prison, they wouldn't even need big walls as anyone who escaped wouldn't be able to get anywhere.
