  • Today's adventure took us to Trinidad, Colorado's Coal Queen! (December 12, 2022)
    Trinidad began on the Santa Fe Trail and made it's legacy through coal mining. Once known as "The Sex Change Capital of the World", Trinidad today is popular for it's Victorian architecture, brick streets and marijuana industry.
    *I forgot to include the many Spanish expeditions that passed through the area. The Purgatoire River was the most popular route from Santa Fe to the Great Plains.
    My family and I are on a mission to learn about the history and geography of where we live by visiting every town within a 4 hour drive of our house. We live in Pueblo West and once per month we are going to venture out and explore the great state of Colorado, one town at a time!

    The Colorado State owned Baca-- Bloom museum is a must see in Colorado history. In the winter when you reviewed this video. It was closed, worth a trip back to do a video of. Also The Albert Mitchell museum on main street.

    Lotta history in Trinidad, including all the time Mother Jones spent there during the infamous Ludlow massacre.

    Loved your video. Art is also a big thing here❤

    I found your videos some weeks ago. Your job is great. I live in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico. Guaymas is a natural port of the right coast of the California Gulf or "Mar de Corés" or "Mar Bermejo" (three names for the same place). Thank your for you and your family. Colorado, like New Mexico, California, Texas and Arizona are giving the americans and mexicans the opportunity to be better neighbors, friends and siblings. You are contributing with your labor to that. NOTE: Sorry if my english isn´t good. I apologize for that.

    This is a great and well-researched and presented channel. My ancestors immigrated to Trinidad in 1886 and owned homes businesses in many of the small surrounding towns. I am enjoying your trips and impressions very much. Thank you so much for doing this. Your kids may not yet know how lucky they are!

  • @wilberry7

    The new state park should be a great addition to Trinidad over the next several years. I just wonder if the cannabis boom may be ending with more widespread legalization.

  • @dougsiegel2806

    No mention of Bat Masterson? He was a Sheriff in this town beck in the Old West.

  • @MrBmg0068

    Good video! Minus the fracking comment.

    There is a Trinidad in the Caribbean

  • @aliencat8556

    Love the info. Nothing personal against the narrator but it's a bit robotic. Find a smoother better narrator and it will take off. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it. Just some advice from a random viewer.

  • @prayuthp.514

    I went to college there in 1968-1969 ( one year ) I did not like it that much I transferred to California. Thank you for showing Trinidad to remind my memory
