    I was a corrections officer at Desert Center facility for nearly 12yrs.... was actually a great place to raise all our 6 kids though. The school there was K-12 and the education and socializing (community) was fantastic. My children weren't tainted by inner city/ concrete jungle life.
    Thank you for the videos. We now live in Oregon and it's nice to see current videos of the Desert.
    Originally, we are from Joshua Tree/ Yucca Valley and 29 Palms.

    Hey Adam,

    Some buildings are built elevated, because they don't leave enough open area to adsorb the runoff from rain. The new McDonald's in downtown Ocala was built this way. Underneath, is a drain field to handle the runoff, instead of it spilling onto the highway. It is about twice the size of the original McDonald's building on the site.

    You should look up the history of Desert Center and Stephen Ragsdale. He bought the desert in 1921. He built that cafe and mechanic shop soon after. He built those cabins for the people passing by along with the pool. You'll have more of an appreciation next time you pass by. Maybe, you will go see the former Desert Centers owner's summer cabin and his desert sanctuary next time. He used to run the mechanics shop until his son took it over.

    Very nice trip Adam and I loved the fact that you did as you always do you got of the beaten path and show some things that I would have never seen if it wasn’t for you and I found it very interesting but what is even more fascinating is knowing that a lot of the abandoned places you showed were at one point thriving with business and now they’re just an empty shell and in a way it hurt to think of what once was and to be honest with you I’ll never understand why so many places have to go by the wayside and are left untouched for years when half the time these places are sitting on prime property I’ll never understand now with that peace ☮️ love ❤️ and happiness to you Adam and I’ll see you on the next awesome Adam the daily woo adventure peace ☮️ out ✌️

    Cool vid !a side note,the green restaurant at about 34 min is a former Stuckeys travel stop.I recognized the shape as they were all exactly the same.
    Stuckey's was an early chain of travel stops that predates our Bucees,QT's etc...
    They were everywhere when I was a kid in the 1960's

    That was the squeakiest train I’ve heard in a long time. I enjoyed the long shot of that brake dragging iron horse. I really like the desert vlogs.

    Wow! You were in my neighborhood! I live in Desert Edge. One time I was low on gas, and had to pay the high price at the Golden Lantern.

    Interesting bookstore. No worries , you won't see anything too unpleasant. Also, Slab City is an RV community btw. Out west, you can see far out and it stays pretty warm during the day.

    Adam - If you are in downtown Phoenix, lots of good 1960s Psycho filming locations. Also, I recommend cartel coffee for a piping hot caffeinated beverage

    Long, straight, enmpty roads in a very windy desert...so fascinating. Must be eerie at night (even when there are stars).
    You mentioned Airwolf! I watched it and it captivated my attention when it first came out. That scene with Stringfellow Hawk (Jan Michael Vincent's character's name) where he was playing a cello, alone, in the mountains beside a lake with a hawk (namesake? or was it an eagle?) soaring by... artistically, it spoke of solitary searching. A moment passed.
    That was a nice venturing vid. Thanks for that. Enjoy as well! See ya!😉

    I lived in AZ for a few years and miss it. Your desert filming is what attracted me to your channel. 🤙🏻 Like you I have a thing for desolate desert areas.

    Amazing you do that by yourself. Some of those places are creepy. But, I appreciate that you do, it's so interesting :)

    Adam and Willie Nelson, On the road again... I learned a little bit about Quartzsite, AZ after the area was featured in the film "Nomadland" with Frances McDormand. I think the birthday suit guy from the bookstore sang a little song in the movie too
