Hereford Texas US HWY 60 - Clovis New Mexico

[@jimh.8138]

Don’t know what it is about driving through small town America but it never seems to never get old. At least for me.

[@henrywardell4635]

Indeed , Driving through Rural America - Refreshing - Relaxing . Better then New York City ; Los Angeles ; San Francisco ; Seattle ; Chicago. [ No Mobs .]

[@Daniel-zf7tp]

When I was a kid, my grandfather would take me by cattle ranches. When I asked what that smell was, he would always say that it was the smell of money!

[@DanSambrano]

That's exactly what I was thinking watching the video. I'm from Clovis, haven't been there in awhile.

[@jackielowe2895]

I live on family Hereford farm. Raise show quality calves. That smell is smell of home. I prefer not to travel on interstates.

[@henrywardell4635]

Daniel Your Grandfather was right.

[@montanagirl4530]

Clovis is home to the Norman Petty Recording Studios, where Buddy Holly and Roy Orbison recorded. It's a museum now.

[@marshallj2415]

The Air Force Base in Clovis is where they keep the Drone Force. Been there and saw incredible aircraft!

[@RichardFelstead1949]

Living in Australia , I doubt if I'll ever get to the USA so it's great riding shotgun with you on your trips. keep it up.

[@larryingerson8357]

Hey russ. I too prefer to travel the smaller routes instead of the interstate fwy when I can. Nice to see rural America. Much easier to stop and see stuff.

[@DreamCather147]

The late great Buddy Holly recorded his early hits in Clovis NM....

[@rvertv]

nice

[@arkansastraveler7698]

Back in the 90's a lot of dairy operators from California moved to that area, plus some from overseas. Not sure about now, but used to raise a lot of peanuts . Cannon used to be a F111 base, but it is Special Operations now. Several different types of drones and others. Fort Apache over by Show Low is an interesting place.

[@sleepy314]

Clovis Man culture was discovered at Blackwater Draw about 10 miles south of Clovis NM.... hence the name.

[@shirleyjordan6340]

Thanks for the ride. If things get back to normal next year, I plan to be out that way for the Whippet National in Albuquerque, NM. Looks like a great place to travel. Be safe!

[@robertaster7148]

Got my map out watching your video thanks Scout

[@veanwhitcher7867]

Love your videos, you always make even small towns so interesting with your attention to detail.

[@kebbenmilliman4206]

Thanks Russ....I needed to get away for a while.

[@BobtheTraveler-WD8NVN]

Great Video Russ !!!

[@romeoalphafoxtrot9517]

Great scenery Russ. Hey, I doubt if it would be open, but if you are going through Albuquerque at a later date check out the Unser Museum. All kinds of cool cars and memorabilia from the famous Unser family. Such a cool place. Very well done. Safe travels Man.

[@rvertv]

thank you

[@1robertmkelly]

I really enjoy these ride along videos - I have always enjoyed seeing new places and meeting new people along the secondary roads across this country.

[@ScubaSteveCanada]

Hi Russ, this is the route I take to get from Toronto, Canada down to Yuma for snowbirding. Recognize everything in this video. Won't be coming down there this fall/winter due to Covid though. :-(

[@kevinp2820]

Hello Russ, I bet you could really "smell the money" driving threw Hereford Texas, he he. Isn't it interesting to see these towns along the way. The stories they have to tell. The journey continues. See You Soon!

[@juliebradford2999]

Thanks.I sure enjoyed going along for the ride.

[@amyrose103]

Back in the 70tys my family lived in Melrose and worked on broom corn, encountered lots of snakes! Yikes

[@56fordthunderbird]

im like you are i enjoy the scenic routes more than the interstate

[@jesscarey7666]

Awesome video Russ! Thanks for the ride!👍

[@jackbentley601]

Russ, if you stay on 60 into Arizona you will pass within 1/4 mile of my house at mile marker 356.5 between Springerville and Show Low. Drop me a line, honk your horn or wave. Enjoy your videos!

[@DrBeauHightower]

Notice the roads immediately look. like crap when you cross the state line

[@Dive-Bar-Casanova]

We drove across New Mexico 10 years ago and it was really hard finding gas stations. Very few back then.

[@a-a-ron2336]

You need to stop at the allsup's pick up some green chili chimichangas.

[@oldref65]

Russ if you are continuing on 60 thru NM west of Magdalena is the Very Large Array. One of the largest radio telescopes installations. Very few gas stops till you get to Show low. Take care.

[@petepeterson4540]

hey russ you like big grain elevators there are some in chicago and Kansas city sure to make your jaw drop

[@fletcher3913]

You can take the backroads anytime, Russ. I like them.

[@rickcrippen5180]

I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your road trips, so I won’t try!

[@rontyson3296]

Thinks we will have to travel this route next time we go to Oklahoma so we can stay off the interstate. Thanks

Hi Russ

[@stephenbrown3763]

You FOUND the BEEF..RUSS!!

[@d0bhran]

And yet, I don't think there is a single Wendy's in Hereford

[@ftkinsella]

All that beef talk has made me hungry. I gotta be careful what I watch when I’m a little hungry. Hahahahaha Cheers!!!

[@joe-ng3ky]

Is 60 RV friendly for motorhomes? Low bridges and exc.

[@Mark_Chandler]

[@jackkridler5714]

Why is the speed limit so low? Are they scared that ppl will hit a low flying cow lol

[@SC-cz8kq]

Desert to Vaughn a lot better from Artesia to cloudcroft. Or Roswell to Riudoso, Or Capitan

[@maxroelen3608]

In 1969 the family took a summer vacation from SoCal to Kansas. We stopped in Clovis, NM to visit some people who were our neighbors in the Sacramento area. He was in the Air Force and was stationed there. Then we headed to Amarillo for a visit with relatives , on to Ft. Sill OK , then to Kansas, and watched the moon landing. Wow, at 13:28 you passed the motel we stayed at. Funny thing, we just checked in and were hungry. So my dad went for some burgers while my sister and I went swimming. Just before we got out of the pool, it started to get really dark from a storm, which caused frogs to jump into the pool. Within minutes of my dad getting back, the sky ripped open with rain and very strong winds. It lasted about 20 minutes. Then my dad went to talk to the manager and he said the storm the week before blew the roof off the motel. Enjoy!

[@sirsmilealot5458]

Notice how the road went bad at the New Mexico line. Democrat run. This is to be expected when funds are going to questionable places.

[@wlonsdale1]

You can tell Trump was in office. Cheap gas
