You guys are truly saving the human race although most people have no idea just how important BEES are to the planet. I do and I appreciate the work you do.
Glad your back home safe and sound after all the “hiccups” you all experienced along the way. A trip you will NEVER forget. Love all the photos!!! Thanks for taking us along… it’s a vacation to watch while being cooped up during this pandemic.
Welcome Home and this is EXACTLY why I never drove cross country. Spent one night in a sleeper with a load of Live Fish and that was from here to Pennsylvania and back. Long day trips were plenty. Hope Pop is doing better and you're settled back in the old home saddle. GBWYall!
@@628DirtRooster ............and the righteous don't need none. I let my health card go dead for the expressed purpose of getting me off the road..........and into a boulder hole. My head does NOT work for log books but now there is the E-log which everybody hates. I liked driving a mixer but that was a while back too and we got to flat line for local hauling in the log. Blasted guvment takes all the fun out of everything! GBWYall!
Randy your adventure looked like a real interesting adventure..thanks for taking us along. Love your photos you really have an eye for the right shot. Looking forward to seeing some of your bee removals coming up after you rest up. Take care.
Got you a handful of lava! Say, did you know that lava rock comes in a variety of blacks, grays and reds? Also, these ancient volcanos stretch all the way into western Oklahoma. This is something that even a lot of Oklahomans don't know--just a piece of geology trivia, nothing to do with beekeeping, LOL. Epic road-trip, Rooster, and you're not even home yet.
Randy, it looks like y’all had some good times, some bad times and definitely some unforgettable times! At the end your message was California had the most homeless people that you’ve seen, I believe that has a lot to do with the cost of living there. So many of those areas that a 200k house is selling for 1m so I’m going to stay here in the southeast and talk with a little southern draw! Thanks for the video!
@@dentonjordan6992 Exactly. "California's homeless problem" is the result of people from all over the country coming here because of the temperate climate and ridiculous government benefits. Surely, you don't think they're all from Cali.
That's what my mom would say when she got lost..."Ok kids, we're having an ADVENTURE!" To this day, it makes me nervous, although now I can laugh and appreciate it.
You poor sweet man! You look so tired. It can be hard trying to sleep on the road. I bet you can't wait to get back to the Mrs and your own bed. What an adventure you have had! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Beautiful country.
I can relate Randy. I "power walk" when I have to walk anywhere. I was in the airport in Denver, and power walked from one terminal to the next to get food, and was curious as to why I was out of breath. Then I came to the same realization that you did. "ALTITUDE!".
We live in southeast Texas and a couple years ago we went to eastern Colorado and did some hiking in the mountains. It took a couple days to catch your breath but you get used to it pretty quick. BTW eastern Colorado mountains are gorgeous in June!
I once flew to Albuquerque from Memphis, and actually got dizzy just walking out to pick up my rental car. I thought maybe it was just the unpolluted air, lol.
I especially appreciated the shots across Arizona and New Mexico. I lived nearly 10 years in New Mexico and it is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
@@628DirtRooster I have to say a lot of the beauty is not visible at first. The first time we were stationed there, it took about 6 weeks to begin to see past the dry desert. Then we were restationed there after living 3years in Hawaii. Even knowing I thought it was gorgeous, it still took that 6 weeks to really see it again. Both times, we were in Albuquerque. Northern NM is waay beautiful immediately!
@@helenscott8202 I was stationed at Davis Monthan and later drove a U-Haul from Fresno to Montgomery Alabama via I-40. We stopped for gas right before sundown and got a chance to see Albuquerque from the top of the rim. With the sun at our backs, the lights of the city were already coming on.
@@obsoleteprofessor2034 The sundown throughout NM is unbelievable! We moved there the 1st time, I think in 1956. Immediately there was a 3 day blizzard. The type you read about. That started the 1st day of school. When my school bus let me out, it was snowing and blowing like crazy. I thought I knew the right direction, but not sure which quarters. Luckily, I met my mom. Anyway, that cleared, finally, days later, there was this totally spell binding sundown with a golden light everywhere! Talk about spectacular! I have never seen such sunsets anywhere else. I suspect you caught part of that.
Outstanding slice of middle America, life on the road and both the pleasures and hazards of that life. Arizona/New Mexico have wonderful sunrises and sunsets,,,, thanks for sharing all of the amazing views from your trip. Not much about bees this time, still a refreshing change with quality content,,,, thanks again.
YAY! You drove through the end of Antelope Valley through the Mojave desert. The part of Southern California that used to be known for carrots, onions, and alfalfa. But world renowned for the NASA Goddard flight test center at Edwards AFB.
Seeing all that open land, reminds of North Dakota. It's all open fields an ugly brown color everywhere. Thanks for sharing this trip, awesome to see the USA through the eyes of another. God bless
We had a trailer tire blow out about 2am in the middle of nowhere Kansas. Stuck the spare on and made it to Kansas City where we spent 3 hours trying to find a tire place that had a bias ply trailer tire in stock.
Hey your choice to go down I 70. Kansas is beautiful when you learn to appreciate it. I grew up in the red hills of Clark County. You can see for miles, see stars that night, awesome sunrise and sunsets, and no pollution in most of Kansas. If you haven’t see rattlesnakes, you may meet some depending upon the time of year. If you have car/truck problems you likely to get farmers or others to stop and help Now not sure you were ever on I 70.
This video brings to my mind a John Denver song ... ""Take me home country roads"" lol them long road trips are interesting an enjoyable but I am always so grateful to see the home sweet home ❤️ an the old volcano Rock would be so cool to see in real life
Despite all the adversity and challenges of the journey you still made a beautiful video with some amazing though somewhat poignant photography. Aside from the interesting subject matter of your videos your natural positivity and outlook on life are uplifting - thank you.
You were in Williams AZ, I live just 5 miles from there. I’m a new Beekeeper as of this year and enjoy watching your videos. They’ve been helpful. And yes the air is thin up here.
I showed this to my wife and told her this was highlights from the trip we "could " have had. She said it was a great time but glad it wasn't ours. Go to FL next so we can experience that from the comforts of home. Yeeeeehaaaaw
I absolutely love watching all your videos and I’m petrified of bees! (But I love honey)! Also love your photography!! Thank you-I’m in PA and all I see when I go anywhere are MASKS! You bring normalcy back to my life! 🙏
We got bees, a trailer with no brakes, a truck too small for the trailer with bad brakes and it's leakin earl, spare but no jack and a flat..... Gimme my sunglasses, we're on a mission from god.... (throws smoker out window) I've had a few trips like that, at least you documented it with some nice video... safe travels!
I love road trips like that! Breakdowns are annoying and costly, traffic hold up’s are unnerving, hopefully mostly smooth sailing. It doesn’t matter, it’s all about the journey and doing it with friends having a good time.
You traveled a lot of territory that I grew up in. Travelled a lot of the roads that you were on including Arizona and New Mexico. Ended up living in Oklahoma. There are days that I miss the desert and accessibility of the Pacific Ocean. Thank you for making possible to travel vicariously with you. Hope you got a good chunk of lava.
When I was working at the flight office we used to get drunk and see who could fly the simulator through a wind farm. I was never successful but I do still hold the record for the most bridge landings.
Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I've always loved bees. But I was deathly AFRAID of them. I conned my sister, when she was very young, and assured her because I had read it.

So you have been an inspiration to me. Thank you so very much for all you do for bees. If it wasn't for them we would need
Thank you for the road movie DirtRooster. You must have been glad to get home, but I'm sure you're glad you went. All my best wishes to you and yours and see you soon.
I was born/raised in California, currently livin' in Tejas. I've done that drive many, many times. Both I-10, and I-40.. also two or three times up'n across I-80 Those states you're driving through, some of the most beautiful vistas and landscapes our fine country has to offer. I-10 especially, absolutely gorgeous. Up north across I-80 (highly recommended) you get to roll through Donner Pass (famous for the Donner Party, cannibalism, etc) which is breathtaking. Beautiful rocky mountains all the way until it flattens out for the desert and salt flats.
What an adventure. Can’t imagine what their first cleansing flights will look like. Got a thrill when you flashed that California Dairies Inc. sign from the side of our Tipton powder warehouse. Worked at that plant from 1994. The trend has been sell the cows, bulldoze the dairy corrals and plant almonds.
You guys are so unbelievable what you do and I can't believe what you guys do for the people who are infected with bees. Good luck, be careful and call the bee keepers for your PROBLEMS with bees. Love watching everything you do for everyone GOD BLESS and thank you again 🤩🤩🤩🤩😏❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a hell of a trip! This has been a pretty cool video series brother!! Always enjoy watching the shenanigans you get yourself into. Take care buddy. Best wishes to all your family members & your bees. ✌️🐝🐝🐝
Growing up 2 hours south of Cleveland, Ohio my grandparents would call and say they were going out to dinner for fried chicken, take care of the animals. That meant they were going to a family restaurant in the Ozarks! Oh the memories 🥰
Hope your buddy's made more than they spent on breakdowns.. Spending night's and days in a truck, not good! But you got something to talk about for awhile! Good videos and pictures..
Looks like you had quite a trip. I see you went threw my town Needles Ca. on the border of Az. Those black rocks where the tire blew was a patina caused by the sun sun snd heat. The Indians would scratch Indian art into the bigger ones, most date back hundreds if not thousands of years. Great video👍👍
Best view of California I've had was looking in my rear view mirror. Arizona and New Mexico had some of the best small family restaurants i found when traveling through. But getting across them still left me 10 to 12 hours home. Still love to see the desert mountain rangelands.
Tehachapi is just a hop away from us! Love our state...politics aside...but we’re trying and many of us haven’t left and still fighting to the end! We NEED support, not condemnation.
I definitely felt you about the elevation. I left California almost two years ago and my first summer on the east coast was an experience. I'd have almost sworn I could feel the water pooling in my lungs after living my whole life in that dry, dry, DRY climate. To give you a feel of how bad the homeless situation is in California, there were bus bench signs in Los Angeles saying that 25% of the nation's homeless are there.
Great video Rooster! Thanks for sharing.. if you guys had luck...it was all bad!! Loved all of your travels!! Now get back home and beat Mr Ed😁😉✅🏴☠️🏴☠️
Next year when you go RENT trucks!! That way if they have problems, a new one will be delivered and you don't have to pay for the repairs. I hope your dad is doing well. Keeping him in my prayers. I hope the rest of the trip was uneventful repair wise. Oh and that FORD??? The fact it's a ford is what's wrong with it!! lol I'm a Chevy gal...only make that's lasted longer than the payments.
Yeah ☺️ so glad you are safe . Wonderful scenery lovely music . Love seeing your trip even with all the naughty vehicles misbehaving 🥰🥰🥰🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 And (starting a sentence with an and 🤣🙈) omg an advert for bee kits from friends of the earth 🌍🌎 first decent advert ever on utube 🤣
Yes sir you did. I wish I would have known you could have fixed everything at my house. Got 20acres and all the tools and spare trailers to stay in. And my own pond. Let me know next year and I'll be ready for you.
Lucky you didn't have to drive from Beaumont to El Paso....nothing like driving 14 hours and never leave Texas! My grandparents lived in Tucson so we used to take that drive every year from Houston. FYI, El Paso is closer to Los Angeles than it is to Houston!
take care all, thanks for the ride and the view,s of life of others, we all think life is hard til you see with your own eye of what fate has given to others
🤣🤣I think Barstow has a 100 radius that has bad vibes and causes people to break down!! Every generation of my family has spent the night in Barstow or proximity. 😂 If that volcanic rock you stopped at was just west of Albuquerque you were close to the Petroglyphs- great park with rock etchings. In the Los Volcanos area!! Glad you made it home safely!!
Let them pros at them tires! And yes on the Gulf of Mexico, I'm in Deepest South Texas, down at the tip just before you fall in the water! Love your trip vids!! 😍
so... I mentioned to my wife about the bee videos I watch. She asked me who made them. I told her a guy named dirt rooster. Now she is telling me to not watch stuff like that? she says it is something dirty?
You guys are truly saving the human race although most people have no idea just how important BEES are to the planet. I do and I appreciate the work you do.

About as bad as traveling with Tom hanks 😂😂
If you do bring plenty of water and canned meat.
What you were seeing at the 3:30 mark was the Tehachapi cemetery.
That makes sense
You poor sweet man! You look so tired. It can be hard trying to sleep on the road. I bet you can't wait to get back to the Mrs and your own bed. What an adventure you have had! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Beautiful country.

Been a long time since I've seen joshua trees. Thanks. Great music.
395 is such a scenic highway. Was one of my favorite places since I was a little kid there in a tiny sulfur mine called Trona.
We got bees, a trailer with no brakes, a truck too small for the trailer with bad brakes and it's leakin earl, spare but no jack and a flat..... Gimme my sunglasses, we're on a mission from god.... (throws smoker out window)

Repairs to trucks and trailers probably consumed all of the profits of this trip.
You are not Wrong!
Nah, there was enough left for a happy meal.
Would ya look at it? 😆 What an insane trip. I'm never sending bees out there. I don't have enough anyway. 😄
Keep piling up swarms and you will.
Just stumbled across this video and your channel. Love your photography. Lots of awesome photos

There are days that I miss the desert and accessibility of the Pacific Ocean. Thank you for making possible to travel vicariously with you. Hope you got a good chunk of lava.
Typical road trip: repairs, waiting, and service stations. 🤪🤣 Thanks for filming a beautiful "drive"!

I've done that drive many, many times. Both I-10, and I-40.. also two or three times up'n across I-80
Those states you're driving through, some of the most beautiful vistas and landscapes our fine country has to offer. I-10 especially, absolutely gorgeous. Up north across I-80 (highly recommended) you get to roll through Donner Pass (famous for the Donner Party, cannibalism, etc) which is breathtaking. Beautiful rocky mountains all the way until it flattens out for the desert and salt flats.

Got a thrill when you flashed that California Dairies Inc. sign from the side of our Tipton powder warehouse. Worked at that plant from 1994. The trend has been sell the cows, bulldoze the dairy corrals and plant almonds.

Glad you made it through alive.
Looks like you had quite a trip.
I see you went threw my town Needles Ca. on the border of Az.
Those black rocks where the tire blew was a patina caused by the sun sun snd heat. The Indians would scratch Indian art into the bigger ones, most date back hundreds if not thousands of years.

take care all, thanks for the ride and the view,s of life of others, we all think life is hard til you see with your own eye of what fate has given to others
Hope you are well nearly worked my way through every episode now loving the channel take care and keep safe from England 🏴
🤣🤣I think Barstow has a 100 radius that has bad vibes and causes people to break down!! Every generation of my family has spent the night in Barstow or proximity. 😂
If that volcanic rock you stopped at was just west of Albuquerque you were close to the Petroglyphs- great park with rock etchings. In the Los Volcanos area!!
Glad you made it home safely!!
Looks like you had a great time time :-D You will have lots of campfire tales for years to come. Take care and stay safe
i think the place you asked about in tehachapi was the cemetery
God Bless Texas Love the flag on the truck!!
The guys kept amazingly good spirits, considering.
Dirt Rooster needs to get a drone for inspecting sites for bees and those sunsets.
Sounds like lots of fun you can alway check to see if the bees made you any honey to eat along the way.
Let them pros at them tires!
And yes on the Gulf of Mexico,
I'm in Deepest South Texas, down at the tip just before you fall in the water! Love your trip vids!! 😍
so... I mentioned to my wife about the bee videos I watch. She asked me who made them. I told her a guy named dirt rooster. Now she is telling me to not watch stuff like that? she says it is something dirty?
No, there’s something similar on urban dictionary that is dirty but it’s not Dirt Rooster and has nothing to do with me.
Safe travels!❤️💯🙏🏻
Looks like Orland to me😉 Love going down there every year.
'Clean energy' i thought bees made clean energy...
Rio puerto means Dirty river, thanks for sharing your trip 😍
You asked what those trees were? It is a VA Cemetery
Beautiful country god bless America
Good fun 👍🇺🇸
I believe that Ford 150 is probably over it's payload rating when towing that trailer with the fork lift.
That service guy knows his stuff now
That wind turbine comment made you seem awfully.....southern 😅
Appropriate.
