      Grantville guy here. It’s crazy to me that people call valley falls “out west”. 😂 more like dead center. Either way, kinda cool when TH-cam celebrities come through the neighborhood.

    Love the old pictures. We had brick roads in our towns, north of Wilkes Barre, PA. They were nice, except when it was winter. When water from melting snow froze, it was pure ice.

    Dude the editing with the song choice at 11:28 is wild!! Steve you're editing skills amazes me. It's just unexpected from somebody who bangs gears in a truck to see you now and again do these things with editing that's truly remarkable. Pretty cool man.

    this is Jesse i sent this video to friends who lives there. And they was like hell we know those guy's. And i guess they sent them the video. Cause i get a text and they was like that was cool seeing us on somebody's Youtuve video. We will be heading that direction when we leave Washington State. We dropped stuff off in Alaska. And visited friend's who live there when they had time to hang out and have fun. We are heading to Oregon. And possibly find a load to go to Kansas.

    Roads paved with brick, we had some streets in Kenosha, Wisconsin in 1969. Slicker than snot in the winter time.

    You were in my neighborhood. I love living in NE Kansas, close enough to Kansas City to take advantage of its perks , plus if you like to hunt and fish there are 6 nice reservoirs within an hour drive of Topeka. We tend not to have the long droughts like western Kansas and we have lots of trees, hills and valleys, so not flat like everyone thinks. Really enjoy your channel and seeing Orwell putting in the work. Thanks for sharing your time and adventures with us. Stay safe. Peace

    That round hitch in the rear is actually used for hooking up to a chip spreader for "oil and stone" road surfacing. The chip spreader is pulling the truck backwards as the operator dumps the stone into the machine.
