Ahhhhhh thank you Karen 🙂

[@7windhills78]

Thanks for cleaning up.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks for the support!

[@riverbender9898]

Fascinating tidbits of history! Thanks for helping police the trash.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks! I love sharing my random trivia lol

[@gregprince2523]

Goodstuff Jenni!! Thanks for cleaning up the trash from the idgits that walk amongst us!

[@JenniGives]

Little bits add up!

[@hoiyinwan8233]

So nice that you are collecting trash, you are making a difference.

[@JenniGives]

Thank you for your encouragement 🐝💛

[@ronalddawson3873]

Jenni,you did a great job.It was very interesting. {Spooky}.The sound was great.

[@gep27]

Nice of you to clean up like that. Not littering is respectful but expected. Picking up after those who do is a different level of kindness.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks John 🐝💛

[@hootertransport]

Hi Jenni ,found your channel through Wonder Hussy

[@JenniGives]

Welcome Hooter 😎

[@ronalddawson3873]

It's hard to believe people with no regard for property or other people. wonder if they live like this where they stay.You did a great job of cleaning up.You are an inspiration.

[@JenniGives]

I know, right? Like the old trash makes some sense because people didnt have dumps & stuff, but modern trash is getting so much worse in general.

[@markmcintosh7095]

Very informative and interesting. Also it's fun the way you talk to the camera. Thanks

[@JenniGives]

I appreciate that!

[@aliceg9571]

It was sad to see all that graffiti on those buildings. Another interesting video and appreciate all the hard work you do cleaning up and have fun too. You’re an inspiration to others for your kindness and knowledge. Be safe and keep exploring and we’ll be watching.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Alice 🐝🌵 One day maybe we could get the Roger House cleaned up a little better 🤞

[@roxydegall3699]

Hi Jenni, i'm a new subscriber (since a few weeks) but don't comment much. Just wanting to let you now, how much i totally enjoy your videos! I looove the american desert (i'm from Switzerland and we don't have deserts here) and i also love stories and oddities from the american desert, i fully cherrish your videos! You're such a beautiful soul, if i would live there, i would join you helping cleaning this amazing landscape (just can't understand this littering everywhere, it's disgusting and so selfish) Keep the stories coming dear, i will be there on your adventures! Much Love from over the big pond!

[@garythomas4936]

Always leave it better than you found it... Good job!

[@JenniGives]

You got that right!

[@HyrumTaylor]

Hi Jenni, great new video. You need to speak with my mother about the many years she lived in the Junction before Marta arrived. She is a treasure trove of information and stories about Death Valley Junction in the 1960’s.

[@JenniGives]

I just need to slow down and reach out 100% . Its not been on purpose 🥴

[@larrywinger59]

Had a good time Jenni. Saw places I will never visit.

[@JenniGives]

Awesome!

[@MrBigChris620]

Thanks for another great video! Thanks for picking up trash 🗑 🙂!

[@JenniGives]

Thanks! Every little bit helps 🐝🌵

[@rayd.5088]

I like that, my son and I always cleaned up after the trash slobs wherever we went. Everyone should take out more than they brought!

[@JenniGives]

I know, right? And that desert wind BLOWS it around all over the place.

[@LogCabinChronicles]

The Red Hot Chili Peppers wrote a song called “Dani California” back in the day… they NEED to write a song about you- I’m thinking “Jenni Omargosa” - thank you for cleaning up all that mess!! You rock!!! And as always, WONDERFUL video!!!!!

[@JenniGives]

LOL oh my gosh, I feel a parody rewrite is needed! Thanks Bobby!

[@dangriffiths613]

Another fantastic video, thank You. You are so entertaining and informative. Great job. I really enjoy your videos

[@JenniGives]

Thank you very much! I really appreciate the encouragement!

[@martindalton9372]

You are fun!

[@JenniGives]

[@davec9244]

Jenni that is a cool place, and you are to! thank you stay safe

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Dave!

[@garyhallmann4376]

Nice video, I have pasted the junction many times, never stopped.

[@JenniGives]

Many folks do that. Sometimes its not open too which adds to the confusion lol

[@grahamrobson9292]

More Death Valley stories please Jenni I enjoyed this episode

[@JenniGives]

Yes!

[@Dr.Pepper001]

Enjoyed the video. You are so interesting and I love your enthusiasm.

[@JenniGives]

Thank you so much!

[@lindabriggs5118]

Hi Jenni! Just letting you know I subscribed. Its so nice to see women getting out there on KZbin and showing people new places and things. I also used to live in the Mojave area many years ago and grew up there. I still miss the desert. Use Desert Rats have got to stick together! I live in the Southwestern Appalachian's now and to day is a nice day but colder than I like. Keeping it up though, girl! And Happy Holidays to you. May next year be even better.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks for subbing! Yes Desert Rats! I heard the Appalachians are beautiful! Happy Holidays to you too. I hope next year is good for all. we all could use more good.

[@SoonerGirlTravels]

You are such a great person!

[@JenniGives]

🥰 ahhh thanks

[@davidwrightlive7449]

May God Bless YA for the HISTORY LESSON (very informative) and for being such a GOOD STEWARD to provide those who follow with an EVEN BETTER TRIP!

[@JenniGives]

Thank you kindly

[@Corgis175]

You are so conscientious to clean up all those bottles and 40 lbs. of trash. Thumbs up to you. Loved the vlog.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Arleen 🤟🤘

[@northernbackwoodsman263]

Another cool desert adventure, looks like a cool and now cleaner place.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Woodsman! I definitely need to return with more gloves and trashbags

[@JenniGives]

Thank you so much for supporting me! Merry Christmas NB!

[@dianevictorianshabbyshop3876]

God Bless you Jenni for cleaning up. Thank you.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Diane. 🐝🌵

[@coffeenut9154]

watched you hiking with the wonderhussy and came over and subscribed and I am enjoying your content

[@JenniGives]

Welcome! Thanks for subbing

[@janblake9468]

At 17:35 an old gas station is visible in the background. I remember us stopping there for gas in the late 1950's. I don't know when it ended operations.

[@JenniGives]

Yes! Built after CA took over the roads in the early 30’s... and I’ll find out when it left. I think late 70’s maybe BUT thats a trying to remember guess 😅

[@tomisham9900]

I have enjoyed watching all your videos and catching up. Cleaning up the dessert is a good thing!

[@JenniGives]

Yes it was!

[@stephenesler1125]

Nice job up here in New England I think there are laws to protect historic sites older homes stuff like that I like when people buy them and bring them back to the way they were I like stuff like that

[@JenniGives]

yes for sure. The junction just doesn't have their stuff together to operate the right way. It is sad, as the board chases away anyone who cares through their inappropriate actions in so many areas. I am not even sure they care about anything besides Marta history. I LOVE Marta to death but there are other reasons why we even had the place for Marta to find.

[@historymuseumstravel]

People go to camp in the area, because it’s so beautiful and peaceful and then leave their trash there. It’s unbelievable how dumb and ignorant some people are. Bless you for cleaning it up. 💜

[@JenniGives]

I know right? I think a lot of this trash was non-campers but who knows these days...

[@KevinfromSurprise]

Most excellent ! Soaking in all the info... How cool that there's dry camping right by the Hotel! On my list ! Thanks Jenni..

[@JenniGives]

You are welcome!

[@soonerorlater9297]

Hi Jenni (smiles & hug) Seeing U pick up other people's trash is pretty remarkable. I seen Sarah Jane (aka WonderHussy) do the same thing. There R Peeps in this beautiful World that pick up after themselves. And, there R Peeps in this beautiful World that pick up after themselves & "then some". U & Sarah Jane? U Two R the "Then Some's". It's the "Then Some's" of this beautiful World.....that make it BEE U TEE FULL. "Thank You Jenni" (BIG hug) "Merry Christmas & Happy New Year To U & Yours & To ALL" (More BIG hugs) GOD BLESSES ALL.

[@JenniGives]

Thanks Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you too! Adrenaline Jackie picks up a lot of trash too! Check her out!

[@theforgotten5661]

Sounds like somebody should live there to keep the riff raff out and keep the place clean sounds like a great idea I'll have to look into that

[@JenniGives]

😏 there are folks that live here. It’s just so big that it’s hard to keep up. It is a non-profit historic town. No one can just move here...

[@theforgotten5661]

@@JenniGives well it sounds like he's not doing a good job of keeping it up with litter all over the place anything can be done money talks

[@casedoumasr656]

Jenni love your history adventures of any area of Dv are any other area's ⛏️😇 thank you ♥️⛏️🌌🙏

[@JenniGives]

Thank you Case...More to come!

[@charleyfolkes]

Yay, it’s Jenni time ! Is the Peter Lik building / Marta Beckett Museum ever open ? Or is it just a display sorta thing?

[@JenniGives]

Yay! Glad you made it!

[@JenniGives]

It was closed as a Lik Museum. It is still only a replica display of a few of Marta’s dresses.

[@kennysherrill6542]

I believe that the wood was the sides of the pool, it was a wooden pool. Love the explore, wouldn't mind looking it over. I'm trying to find my information on a lost aircraft out in death valley, I would like you and Sarah and people you trust to go look for it. I have your address I think and I'll send you a letter and tell you the details. There is freezing weather coming so get ready, we got some good rain today and supposed to get even more next week, we need all we can get. Have you ever Scuba dived any, are you comfortable around water, just asking. Well Merry Christmas Jenni and I hope you have Happy New Year too.👍❤🇺🇸🎁🎄🎉🎊

[@JenniGives]

Hi Kenny. PO BOX 9364, Pahrump, NV 89060. It was cold rain all day today & I had to postpone tomorrows hike until Sunday. I have snorkeled when I was younger and it just depends on the water situation. I love swimming. Merry Christmas & Happy New year too! We still gotta couple weeks too though lol

[@bearpawz_]

Ah, ratz.. I missed your live chat... Also the book reading. 😩 In Red Light Women of Death Valley, do you remember the guy named Fred Skinner who killed Mona Bell? His real name was Llewellyn Felker & my great-grandmother was married to his brother (after she & my g-grandfather divorced).. The story of Mona Bell (real name Sarah Isabella Peterman) is sad! Llewellyn met her shortly after he was released from prison in Butte, MT for murdering his brother-in-law. He was charged with murder & escaped the Butte prison 3 times, yet was still released in just a couple years! Both Sarah & Llewellyn were married to other people when they ran off & wound up in Rhyolite. You know the rest...😞 One cool thing that happened (since you mentioned her!) was that Robin Flinchum contacted me on Ancestry (Hi Robin if you drop by!!) & asked me where I found a photo of Sarah (aka Mona).. A lady who was married to a Peterman from Mona (Sarah)'s family had several photos of Mona & her family. I talked to the Peterman lady once, and she didn't know that Sarah had become "Mona" or that she was murdered. She said always wondered what became of her.. Anyway.. LOVE your channel!!! xoxo

[@JenniGives]

LOVE THIS!!! & I don’t exactly know the rest because I haven’t read the whole book yet...But now I am completely motivated to read vs. Skim 😂🤟 Okay so maybe I should read that story next brothel night and then can include your information if you’re okay with that...

[@bearpawz_]

​@@JenniGives Yes!! When you read it next, I'll have to tell you about the 3 times he escaped from the Butte jail (one of the times, he tied sheets together & when he got to the ground, the wardens were there to help him the rest of the way down.. LOL!!!) The other two times he actually took off. But his escape from the prison in Nevada was INSANE.. 😱 He made it to San Francisco & probably would've never been caught, but his sister-in-law who lived in Seattle, turned him in.

[@kevins1114]

It's too bad you couldn't save those colored glass bottles for WonderHussy. Sarah is planning to build a small building using such items in the outer walls.

[@JenniGives]

Next time.

[@santeelocal]

Rober Tubb and Kitty "shotgun" Tubb are my great grandpa/ma

[@JenniGives]

OMGosh!!! No way! That is pretty neat. I just found an older interview with one of her children, maybe that is your mom? [e-mail] is my email. would love to chat with you, have always wanted to do a video about the junction from their perspective. So many wonderful things about DVJ are because of your great grand parents!

[@1norpmes]

Where on the property is this pool? I lived and worked at the Junction for a couple of years Back when Marta was performing with Tom (Wilget) she called him. I was doing maintenance. I knew every inch of the place...Lived in the laundry shed for a while...also in the hotel. I was there when the tailing pile was being re-worked by a miner...don't remember his name. Again where is this pool? When I was there there was a pond behind the gas station; but I never saw any timber there.

[@JenniGives]

Super Neat! I bet you have some great stories 💛 You can see the Reminence of the pond behind the old gas station still. The swimming pool is across the street from the old houses that used to be next to Lila C.

[@markbohn6534]

Hey there Jenni from the Block--I mean Junction (0: Hey Jenni Soap Lake WA population is about the size of Death Valley.. I'm not far from Soap lake.. I'll find Rick Blocker and bring him back in my RV to have him clean everything up,,,OK? (0: I think for the fun of it I'll ask around about him...(0: I know a few people there...Soap Lake is a medical lake.. It's kinda famous.. For the fact no fish live in it.. And people put the mud from the lake all over themselves... To me thats just gross (0: They were going to put the World Largest Lava Lamp in the middle of the street there.. But they thought a person like Blocker might for the fun it,, just break it.. Can't remember where they got that lamp but it was very big... Not far from Soap lake is the Worlds Largest Dry Falls.. From the Ice age dam breaking... Later Jenni from the junction hope I made you laugh...

[@JenniGives]

woah, no way. what a small world! Jenni from the junction has got a little ring to it LOL

[@allenthibault9523]

Hey Jen I think maybe that horse is injured or something? Maybe let some local people know ?🤔😇 love your vlogs 💖

[@JenniGives]

We are aware that she is very old. She gets care 💜 thank you for your concern 🙏💯

[@danielalamo2075]

Some people are just pigs.

[@JenniGives]

I know right? More trash seems to be everywhere these days. So sad

[@marycotton6009]

That horse is lame. She's hurt ,see how she's limping ! That is probably why she is by herself. Probably can't keep up with the other horses. Because you know her whereabouts,you should reach out to BLM & get her some help. It's the right thing to do for this horse. Please make a call to help this horse. Yes I am a big horse lover. Thank You. Sorry since you showed the horse,that's all I can think about now. I was enjoying the video no offence to you I just know about horses. Please make the call to help the horse.

[@JenniGives]

Yes, I went into the Junction to find Brooke (the manager) after filming. The junction has reached out to some local horse people first, I believe, cause BLM like to kill...I will see if I can't get an update.
