Gorgeous day👍

[@goodoakpress]

Oh wow, Russ. My dad was in the Army Air Corps as well. He was part of the 8th Air Force out of Kimbolton, England. He was a navigator on a B 17 that went down behind enemy lines on June 13, 1943, after a mid-air collision with a German Messerschmitt. He spent the rest of the war in a German POW camp. If you dad was by chance stationed at Kimbolton then they may have known one another.

What are the names of your music? I really like the closing song of your older videos.

[@lindabrown2211]

Thanks for sharing

[@DreamCather147]

Thanks Russ. I got to visit The Church and Taos in summer of 1993. Ansel Adams took a photograph of The Church.

[@lindamartin2045]

Very nice trip. Don't know if I'll get to New Mexico this year. Thanks for sharing what you see. Take care.👍👍🤗😊

We drove through Los Alamos as a kid in the mid 1960s from Tulsa ok.Then White Sands on the way back from Ca..

[@fisch69]

Keep on Truckin’…🎶🎶

[@65248940]

We visited Taos in 2017, during the month of January. It was colder, but not bitter cold. I aways wanted to revisit in the summer months. This video shows me what that would be like. We stayed at our timeshare, Club Wyndham Taos. Very nice place. I liked Taos and the people. We came up through the Cimarron Canyon, coming from Oklahoma. It was a nice drive. We drove through Eagles Nest. Lots of snow and very cold. Everything was white. Northern NM is beautiful! Enjoy your trip and be safe!

[@michaeldane197]

Thank You Russ, for visiting Los Alamos. I have my great grandfather work their on the Manhattan Project. thanks for showing the history of the atomic bomb. It bring back memories of what my great grandfather told me about the Los Alamos. Great videos Thanks for your time love your video. It's feel like I riding shotgun with you.

[@brilog69]

Nice trip Russ!!

[@callieduval3000]

The more you travel thru new Mexico the more i love it. It is one beautiful state

[@rafaeltorre1643]

People don’t realize it because the highway goes through the flattest areas around the mountains. People are shocked when I take them on the tram in the desert and 20 minutes later it’s cool and they’re in a forest. Lol. Northern NM is one of the biggest states in itself.

[@ronaldhall2489]

My dad was a w w 2 combat veteran from the army also God rest their soul

[@richardl.7390]

When I stayed overnight in Santa Fe, I "boondocked" in the local Walmart parking lot with a host of other campers. I took Interstate-25 North towards Denver and I stopped halfway to discover "Great Sand Dunes" National Park in the western part of the San Luis Valley ("only" about a 150 mile detour) via Colorado Route 160. Northern New Mexico is filled with abandoned houses and ranches, filled with lizards and huge spiders (I stopped a couple of times to have a look) and it has an air of desolation rarely seen in America. Anyway it is an experience worth having at least once to make you understand what "History" means (the settling of the Southwest by Spaniards in the 1700s). Marvelous video, Russ !! RICHARD

[@melodybecker2309]

It's the San Louis Valley - not far from Alamosa, Colorado!!!!

[@susanstrickland6774]

Back roads are the best. Great drive, scenic. Lots of history in NM. Love that old church. 🙂👍⭐

[@dgreensotr]

My father said my mother was one of the first civilians to enter LA after WWII. She was a secretary for a construction company brought in to build housing for all of the workers.

[@rafaeltorre1643]

I’m from New Mexico. I played a scientist in the WGN series “Manhattan”. Best project I’ve ever worked on. In Santa Fe. Only two seasons . BCS was a close second.

[@keithtowles4550]

Russ, I’ve always wondered what the area around Los Alamos was like. Thanks for taking us along with you on this trip. Also, thanks for honoring your dad and his service to our country. Safe travels.

[@peterselten500]

[@lilrusty6720]

The rear camera is fantastic! Great video, Russ.

[@CarlosCastillo-iy5it]

Hi amigo russ greetings beautifull quiet towns I like

[@BlueBeeMCMLXI]

History is irony. Everyone makes mistakes. Amazing video, thanks for your big effort in making these.

[@chetrhodes3216]

Love that video. Reminds me of when I visited Northern New Mexico some years ago. Be safe, Russ!

[@djoldskool5763]

Los Alamos. Yay!!!!!

[@KelleyTexas]

Great video of Los Alamos. Definitely need to visit there. I spent a week in Taos last year, and I stayed in that same RV park. Pretty nice park and in a good location, I thought. I also drove the Enchanted Circle, but I had to do it after work, so I didn't get to stop very much before it got dark. But it is a beautiful scenic drive.

[@nadinejohnson2189]

🕊️ Beautiful View 🏞️ 🚐 On The Road Again 🎵 I'm Enjoying! 🤗

[@rvertv]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@M.Campbell]

That is some really beautiful country. Thank you Russ.

[@pauladams7344]

History under every step !

[@lucascritchfield]

That minute you spent talking about your dad was touching. It gave me goosebumps for some reason. Thanks for the vid. My grandpa was an original Manhattan Project settler of Los Alamos so I've been there hundreds of times but not since he died in '94.

[@Vean-ql2yq]

The town looks nothing like I would have imagined. Amazing.Thanks again, it was beautiful. I want to go back and revisit some of your old videos, its been a while. God bless and keep you safe ❤ Redbaron Chattanooga TN

[@luvwestern]

Thoroughly enjoying these New Mexico videos!

[@jgh4442003]

You were extremely close to the Bandelier National Monument. Lots of history there with the cliff dwellings of native peoples.

[@rafaeltorre1643]

The only place in NM I haven’t been to!

[@shirleylong3610]

Gosh darn I went to Taos but not Los Alamos so I really enjoyed seeing it with you, Russ. I’m a big fan of your travels. All of them😁😁😁😁

[@johnnypalughi1192]

Very enjoyable! Please, keep them coming.

[@williamfox1146]

Russ - you should have taken the Sky Railway from Santa Fe to Lamy for the scenery. When you get to Taos visit the Gorge Bridge and Earthship Community. Drive from Taos through Arroyo Seco up to Taos Ski Valley. Eat at Michael's Kitchen in Taos.

[@richardsaito2641]

Another outstanding historical trip, greatly appreciated

[@lisac5287]

Love the old church!

[@cecillezollner2805]

Wonderful video,I love New Mexico it has a beautiful scenery and so much history. Show us Las Vegas N. M 😊

[@janeforever]

Have you heard about RV TV that Epperson on RV Miles just mentioned. Possible conflict/confusion with your YT? & you've been around for quite awhile & you're the best for touring!

[@Carole-c8l]

I appreciate that you took the time to drive up to my home town. Los Alamos residents take pride in maintaining the beauty and the history of our little town, so it was nice to see you notice that. A small criticism, if you were going to drive up here to visit the History museum, it would have been nice if you had taken a little time to become more familiar with the history. It was a bit jarring for you to come up to the statues of Oppenheimer and Groves and not even know their names. I had the feeling that, as you drove away, you still had not grasped the history of the town.

[@kt-fl6ps]

Congrats on your record breaking month. This NM trip is special because you have shown us both the landscape and the art together. I always wanted to see Los Alamos because of it's history and never thought I'd be able to see it. The church was also great, shame you could not get in. I'm looking forward to more.

[@rickballentine-ol7bv]

Los Alamos has more PhD s per capital than any other city in the US. See the new movie " OPPENHEIMER " coming out this summer, it takes place in Los Alamos.

[@patrickturner4581]

The Los Alamos laboratory and Nuclear research is still operating wit a staff over 12,000 employees.

[@RandiG63]

Thank you Russ for sharing 🙏🏻 beautiful scenery for sure on the backroads 😊👍🏼

[@rvertv]

[@meloneyparker]

Loved the whole trip!

[@keith01956]

Another awesome road trip Russ & that church was pretty awesome. Thank you again& safe travels

[@stephbrandenburg9957]

What a grand adventure. Really impressed with ancient ruins there not bulldozed and cemented over! Thank you for a bird’s eye view on the drive … pretty area! Until next time , got Roy Orbison playing

[@sooner_born2256]

Had heard of the high road to Taos but never have been on it so thanks for the trip!

[@rvertv]

You bet! thanks for watching

[@melodybecker2309]

On July 16th - 78 years ago the atomic bomb was shot off in Alamogordo, New Mexico!!!

[@JZ-gr1tz]

Oh you did paid att to

[@MK-ll7fw]

Russ, if you get a chanch, take the hiway from either Taos, or Angel Fire thru Coyote Csnyon to Mora. Then from Mora to La Cuava. Beautiful churches, scenery and old homes. Aldo there is a campground in Coyote Canyon. Love New Mexico and your videos!! Google all these places😊

[@justlookin3]

Los Alamos is still a restricted area for government work. Depending how you left town you may have been stopped and searched especially in a van. I never visited the museum. It’s very topical now with the movie. Thanks for sharing your journey.

I am a former subscriber. Only former because when I switched to AT&T and got another phone it didn't switch all my favorite YT favorites over. Believe it or not despite turning 77 on the 9th I was able to remember the name of your site. Glad to be "subscribed" again!

[@corncob_say]

Taos has a mouse house adobe with beer bottles for whiskers

[@CentralCalPiper]

Great video! Your videos totally make me want to buy an RV and travel! My wife and I really enjoy your videos!

[@fisch69]

The Navigator on the B29 that dropped the Atomic bomb, looking out the window as they flew away said, “Oh my God !!! What have we done!!!!” 😱😭😭😭

[@bradpennock]

Have you considered mounting an Insta360 camera on your roof to capture a 360 degree VR video of your travels? That way we could pan around as you drive to see all angles of the scenery. Even if you don't, I certainly appreciate what you are doing to show us the countryside and sights along your journey!

[@larryjohnson6398]

Great video I didn't realize Mexico is that green and beautiful anyway thanks for a great video as always and great information and histories see you soon

[@Vean-ql2yq]

The video seems to have a ufo in the top right just slightly before the place by farmers market. i backed it up to see if it was an aircraft, but lo and behold I think its actually the moon still out as it is sometimes during the day. So many places I have traveled with you.❤

[@mariemorgan7759]

Always happy to go along for a fun trip. I love New Mexico, I think the Spanish word Alamos means trees.💕

[@Shadowgrey5937]

hello!!! love your videos - is there a way you can show how you actually plan and google map your trips ? thanks!!! 💕💕

[@rvertv]

Coming soon!

[@Go4Corvette]

My father was in WWII also, Russ. He flew 52 missions in B17s. Two of his brothers were with Gen. Patton on D-Day.

[@percymcnabb4746]

so interesting

[@BillSprague]

I half expected to see my son and I coming the other way! We were there three weeks ago. If you ramble through again, you should stop at the Valle Caldera. It on through Los Alamos and back toward Santa Fe. Bandolier is work a walk to see the Indian ruins too. Thanks for the tour!

[@lizjulio3047]

Thanks you Russ, traveling with you through NM.

[@robertburger6761]

like your back camera like checking out all the spots and being able to read the history

[@garethleitner9547]

As a kid, I lived in Los Alamos and White Rock in the late 60s and early 70s. Thought it was the best place in the world! Before forest fires decimated the eastern Jemez mountain area and before 9-11 closed down access to many beautiful areas. It's a totally different town now. It's "woke", sad to say. But I hold the memories close! Thanks for taking the side trip, Russ!

[@rickcrippen5180]

Love that architecture.

[@lesliegriffith9830]

The Oppenheimer movie opens july 21st.

[@fountainhillschamber]

Will you be going to Luna, New Mexico on this trip?

[@fattone166]

Hanford in Washington State produced the plutonium for the Nagasaki bomb.

@2:07. mini half dome!

[@Skyhors3]

Been there on a road trip with 2 friends in 1972. All along the trip, people told us that in Taos, look up Dennis Hopper, that anyone on the road was welcome, so we did. We located Dennis' house, knocked on the door at 10 a.m. A lady in a robe answered the door, yawning, said she didn't know where we got that story, but it wasn't true, and anyway, Dennis wasn't home. But we met a hippie named Scott, who let us stay in his Adobe house for 3 days. There was much more to the trip - Arizona, Colorado, we never really completely came back. We still talk about that trip when we're together. It was really a Peyote quest, after we had read the first 2 Don Juan books.

[@melodyhart1331]

I would love to see the Loretto chapel on the Santa fey trail, it has a mystery surrounding it's stair case as featured on Unsolved Mysterys.
