Staying at the Wigwam Village - The Galoop - Fort Courage - Petrified Forest National Park

[@hellograves]

I love the national parks!! If you go to Utah you can do Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Bryce Canyon and Zion...all are gorgeous and amazing!!

[@swift241191]

I absolutely do not mind your videos being long, as what you see and share with us is rather interesting Thank you

[@jbenziggy]

Dude, I just visited the Wigwam in Rialto and will be doing my own video on it soon!

[@Zombywoof92553]

I saw Fort Courage when it was open, early 70's I think.

[@LittlezombieRocker]

Yellowstone National Park is always my favorite. Love the different colored sulfur water puddles. Plus there's the Old Faithful geyser and inside one of the gift shop they have a homemade ice cream shop. I have yet to visit other national parks but that's always the first one that pops into my mind.

I bet Adam would take on that loop with his bicycle no problem.

[@kathywilliams9615]

Long….are you kidding!!!your videos are so amazing the time just flies by when I’m watching…you do such a great job and I’m really having a fun time “traveling” with you…Thank You so much for letting us all tag along…

[@mikehughes4969]

Well, it certainly looked like the Weather Gods were having fun with you that day. Snow, rain, more snow HAIL!!! Yikes. The scenery along this leg of the trip has been absolutely breathtaking.

[@Jay-Dee]

Those videos are not long at all. Keep doing them. I like the style :)

[@joesneon]

I love how you show all the old neon signs!! That is my occupation!!!!

[@kimballamram552]

Thank you for preserving history

[@theobie1799]

Awesome pickup on the National Park annual pass. I HIGHLY recommend if yoy are going to visit a lot of National Parks, pick-up a "Passport to your National parks" book available at any National Parks giftshop. There's a place inside the book where you can get a passport stamp for every National Park you visit along with the date you visited. Plus the book shows you what all Parks are available in all the states. It's been a lot of fun collection "Cancellations" as they are referred to by the Parks. Enjoy!

[@ragnaroverby]

Love getting a new stamp in my passport

[@michaelmale8353]

Definitely gotta get the passport. I’m about 39 national parks seen, and plenty more monuments etc…

[@midwestnaturegirl6272]

I think the “large crows” you saw were maybe ravens, which is super cool! Ravens always do funny things when I see them and they are fun to watch. For your park pass, you’ll quickly make up what you spent if you see more parks in the west. For whatever reason .. fewer parks maybe.. you just don’t need one in the eastern US as much. But in the west, man oh man, the parks are everywhere. I would list my favorites, but I love them all! If you go to Olympic National Park you’ll drive through Forks, Washington which has some fun hoky references to Twilight - and the area is stunning.

[@Eighties-Jadie]

Absolutely beautiful views on your travels and in the petrified forest. I loved the cute ostriches and laughed at how they were digging into the food cup 😂 your lunch looked delicious 😍 the big dinosaur sculptures were really cool 🦕 last but not least I loved seeing you play the big outdoor guitar! Thanks Jacob and best wishes ☀️

[@Chrisss2112]

Loved your version of “Smoke on the water” 🙃 😉. Can’t wait to see what awaits you tomorrow Jake!

[@ShelleeGraham]

YES! Exactly Right! The sky and weather were perfect for viewing the Painted Desert and Petrified Forest National Park in NE Arizona. The hues of the formations were beautiful and not easily seen until the ☁️ clouded conditions assist!

[@SeekingSerpent6]

Be nice if in the future you went to Carlsbad Caverns. A very beautiful view of Caves .Sun rise and set sets you can see the bats..Comings and goings.. Its in Eddy County ,New Mexico.

[@megpowers1791]

Oh man I’m in flagstaff something you gotta check out nearby is this beautiful little strange church called the church of the holy dove it’s really amazing the inside is full of lovely graffiti from 1,00000,000s of visitors and it’s architecture is really awesome

[@loricarter4175]

The dark clouds brought out the colors even more...absolutely beautiful.

[@jmorgan5252]

I enjoy your long videos Jacob Thanks

[@kellyhenderson9972]

That’s a raven ! The way you can tell the difference is that the raven has more of a dorsal bump on its beak. It’s beak is slightly thicker than a crows and they are more husky than a crow in the scapula ( shoulder blade )

[@ShelleeGraham]

Thank you for bringing up the RAVEN. Although most people don’t know the differences between Crows and Ravens, I appreciate that you took the time to clarify the best way of identifying the birds. Cheers!

I had Covid in Jan and recovered for 3 wks. Each day i enjoyed watching your "Pick my City" route, and it was fun to see what the people voted for. So it helped me. I do miss that voting and think you should do it again. Also I think the Lincoln Hwy. would be a good project for you to do.

[@ShelleeGraham]

Great 👍 suggestion to tour the LINCOLN HIGHWAY 🛣, which is older and longer than Route 66. I’ve travelled much of the Lincoln Hwy, but not the entire route. It’s nice that old US 30 goes through Wyoming and Nevada!

[@kimballamram552]

@@ShelleeGraham It goes from Times Square in N ew York City to Lincoln Park in San Francisco. In use since 1913, it it named after former President Lincoln who unified the country after the Civil War.

[@SockmonkeyDan]

Future National Parks to visit: I vote for Devils Tower National Monument (Wyoming).

[@thetravelingal9497]

That national park pass was so perfect when my husband and I honeymooned in Utah years ago. Highly recommend Zion if you can make it there. Also Mesa Verde and black canyon of the Gunnison in Colorado! Sand dunes are great too, but the best time to go in late may is also the busiest time, car line to get in is usually a mile long. Shenandoah in Virginia during the fall is amazing, plus they have blackberry everything! Had a really good salad with blackberry vinegarette at their restaurant. Eager to see you visit more national parks now, I think they work for national battlefields too.

[@bryanmobley8258]

Zion is possibly more impressive than the Grand Canyon.....just a beautiful view everywhere you look. I can't wait for Jacob to take you some National Parks.....the videos could be an hour long and still be mesmerizing to watch.

I think you can use your annual pass to visit Carlsbad Caverns on the New Mexico/Texas border. It's pretty big and well lit so should be easier to film.

Carpetbagger, enjoyed watching Your adventures in Old Gallup on a snowy day. BTW, The GRIMMS themselves placed that Grimmlife Collective sticker on the 666 sign. They passed through that area a month ago on the way to Transworld.

[@tanyalardieri7969]

Love the videos you have shared on this trip! So nice to see all the different scenery and places you have stayed along the way. Although if I ever get the opportunity to travel thru Arizona I don’t think I would stay at the wigwam motel, no offense but it could use some renovations.

[@BrownieCin]

Ha! As a recent subscriber to both you and the GrimmLifeCollective, it makes me smile to see this brief cameo. The reason I follow you all is because of your haunted house tours/Halloween events.

[@davidchance534]

[@supermama4748]

The welcome sign is no longer at the feet of the Indian, but at least the Kachina statue is still standing. Playground Of Dreams is an iffy park that has seen better days. Please read the reviews before going there, especially with children. "Paso Por Aqui" sculpture, whose name translates as "pass through here," quickly became an informal symbol of Gallup. The "Galoop", as the locals call it, was a 1 Percent For the Arts state-funded project created by artists Charles Mallery and Robert Hymer. Two quarter-scale sculptures, one of which is installed in Santa Fe, were fabricated by Eidson Steel Products, Inc.in Albuquerque to test the NC-generated cutouts that were used to create the piece. The design was modeled in 3D using FormZ, which exported the patterns to the metal cutting machine. At the base, the metal is about 4 wide and an inch thick, but becomes thinner as the loop spirals down to about 6. There's nowhere to park, so be careful snapping a photo.

[@jennifermcdonald658]

Also the IMAX theatre at the Grand Canyon. It is like a soaring over the grand canyon movie. So neat.

[@Adventures-with-Mel]

Ah Jacob!! You found the Cowboy Muffler Man!! Made my day... This is my favorite part of the Route.. Thank You!!

[@truckermatt4603]

Interesting fact about million dollar grape soda , Not too many people know this, but the drink was actually featured in a cut scene from the film “Brewster’s Millions” starring Richard Pryor. He spends his last dollar on the beverage.

[@ragnaroverby]

With your new Annual Pass you can go to all sorts of cool places, Lyndon B Johnson's former home in Texas is a national monument and the pass works for those. His house has been preserved exactly how it was when he was president, very cool. Get a passport book and collect stamps at all national parks/monuments it's fun.

Kevin, you should spend a weekend in Holbrook and spend the night at the Wigwam, visit the 1898 Navajo County Courthouse Museum (with 1898 jail cells, in use till 1976, and great exhibits), eat at Mr. Maestas, Tom & Suzie’s Diner, or Bienvinidos. See the great museum inside Jim Gray’s Petrified Wood Shop (very large and beautiful exhibits, plus many for sale).

Welcome to the south. Lol Weather bouncing around like that is common down here. Especially during spring and fall but sometimes during winter months too. Its funny many states make the crazy weather claim and I lived in Milwaukee form few decades and Texas for a,few more and between the two... Well, Milwaukee is right off the Great Lake Michigan but central Texas has it beat by a mile! Oh, and I dont know why but overall the humidity during the summers are THE SAME (even with Lake Michigan right there) so,I dont want to hear that "but its a dry heat in Texas" because, nope. Anyone wants to argue I have 30 yrs of experience in EACH STATE.... so unless you have more.... nope. Just to throw in I LOBE the people from Texas that want to explain how they know better about Wisconsin than I do because "They were THERE for 2 weeks, or 2 months or even 2 yrs..' it happened even more in WI (referring to Texas). I asked one guy that was arguing with me about the weather in Texas and I asked how long he was there and HE PROUDLY proclaimed he had Driven long haul straight acrost it (I know, it's how they speak down here...) and was there a total of about 3 days and 2 nights! so he "OBVIOUSLY knew what he was talking about!" I laughed pretty hard as I just walked away.... he kept insisting " What's so funny" and "what's the joke" so it took everything I had not to respond with one word to both questions.... "you" Could you open the old Studebaker to get inside? THAT would be the photo ok I would,want. From the,side,,from the,front and from qn angle. Make it look like,I was,driving imagine on blocks.. Maybe even photoshop,some moving tires on the,fender wells. Lol
