I've seen the Marfa Lights pop up off the ground just before dawn. Later that day I spoke to a local who saw something similar. I've been to Marfa a bunch of times I've always seen lights. More with night vision!
Yeah, maybe if I spent more time there and saw something different, I might come up with a different conclusion. But knowing what I know about the use of monitoring equipment by Border Patrol, I can't help but think people get to see some late night shows of the latest top secret flying camera equipment.
The drone was a real investment, it's expensive, but provides some great footage. You just have to be careful, between where you can fly it, and when you should or should not... weather and stuff like that.
That is a cool looking diner, and the breakfast cheeseburger looked awesome! Interesting info about Marfa Army Airfield. Are those headlights? That was a very cool sign. Debbie - BluWave Odyssey
I think that we saw headlights driving north on the highway into the town of Marfa. I was tracking the lights movement and actively looking at Google satellite view. I didn't bring that up in the video thought because so many people believe in other things going on out there.
Food looks good, the children look bored. 🤔😁 Very interesting facts. Love the sunset. Yes, I'm like you, I love the old nostalgic sign and airbase. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
I absolutely love that shiny diner. That rest stop is pretty cool. Wow that place is really in the middle of looks like nowhere. Beautiful sunset! Love that old Holiday Inn sign. Very cool.
Looks like a cool spot! I love diners. It's always neat seeing old abandoned properties. Cool Sign. It's amazing how only parts of it survived the years. Thanks for sharing! Steve
Cool army history! 👍 Loves the shiny diner. Food looked delicious. 🤤 That horizon glow was amazing! The mystery remains. We didn't go to the Marfa lights, but sis hit the Prada store. Nicely done.
Alpine Texas looks like a cool and nostalgic place to go. Wow, what a place to visit. It is hard to imagine things being that old sometimes. I love that the scopes are free. What a cool structure too. Marfa Lights...I had not heard of those before. Another fantastic video. I really like your narration. ❤️👍👏 Donovan & Jodi
Wow. That old air field is so neat. Isn’t it crazy how they just abandon it and leave the runways there? It’s pretty cool that the national parks service installed that viewing tower so you can enjoy the eerie lights. I’m not sure if I’d really wanna boondock there, but at least there’s that option. What a cool find! I love all the drone footage, too.
Downtown Alpine is so eclectic. It’s one of our favorites. The Marfa lights observation stop is a must see; however, we did not see the lights the night we went. Great drone footage. We really liked the shot right above the rest stop when it was returning.
Very cool video. Love the history. Great drone footage as well to show the overlay of the land. We passed by some weird lights on our way up I10. I do like the old sign. That was spooky cool. lol Great video as always buddy. You are killing it.
I'm cool with abandoned places. I don't like it when a place is touted as haunted, and then tours are offered, because then someone is usually doing something creepy just to help sell it as haunted.
A lot of the drones don't have the range necessary. DJI is coming out with some extenders, but you have to pre-plan for where you think you will fly. They claim my drone will go 6 miles, but I lose signal at 3000 feet away.
Looks like Penny's has some greyt grub! 😋 What a cute town! Marfa looks like a fun place to explore. AWESOME sunset! Looks like you got lucky with the lights. I've heard they aren't always visible. 👍 Sorry I missed some of your uploads Dave. I'm trying to catch up but I'm still SO behind on everything it seems like! 😞 ~ Kristine N Xander 🐾
I love the orange color of the sunset .
It was really a beautiful night to be out there.
So very cool!!
Thanks for watching, King.
lovely view so beautiful and nice place friend
Thanks for watching, we appreciate you.

Dinners are great to eat ate. Nice drone footage.
The diner was awesome, staff were so nice.
Great skilled drone footage. I find the military/mystery lights correlation interesting 🤔✨ things that make you go hmmmm...

@@TexasFamilyCamping did you fly your drone out to see what the lights look like up close? If not, why not? Someone needs to do that.
great drone footage i really want one but not sure where i would use it lol, tasty looking food love the diner. awesome sites and video.

@@TexasFamilyCamping yes as an old family friend says "it's above my paygrade". in many ways LOL

The kids were upset I didn't take them to Subway. They love Subway, I'm sick of it.
I love the drone video love the history you shared was awesome. Love good airplane history
I'm an airplane nut. I love planes, and airports, especially old military history stuff.
I absolutely love that shiny diner. That rest stop is pretty cool. Wow that place is really in the middle of looks like nowhere. Beautiful sunset! Love that old Holiday Inn sign. Very cool.
I'm much more drawn to the middle of nowhere, as opposed to a big crowd and a city.
@@TexasFamilyCamping Same here. Unless I'm on a shopping trip. Then give me the city 😂
Great history and beautiful footage. We've never been to the Marfa lights. Cool old Holiday Inn sign. 👍#16
thanks for watching our video, we appreciate y'all.
This looks like a very cute town! That breakfast burger looks really good! Thanks for sharing! ~ Shion and Matthew
Thanks so much for watching. We love finding little diners

I love finding old stuff. It's even better when it's well taken care of. I'm a fan of classic architecture.
Interesting video with some really cool footage.
Thanks so much for stopping by and the compliments. We appreciate y'all.
Oh, man! That is eerie! Cool history, but creepy! Nice drone footage!
It's a unique area, and a lot of people have a lot of ideas about what the lights are out there. I think I figured it out.
Beautiful drone footage as always, and great history of the place. Been to some places in Texas but not in this area. So thank you for sharing!!!
Texas has such a variety of landscapes. It is so much fun to explore it all.
Cool army history! 👍 Loves the shiny diner. Food looked delicious. 🤤 That horizon glow was amazing! The mystery remains. We didn't go to the Marfa lights, but sis hit the Prada store. Nicely done.
We came through that area after dark, and I still have no idea where Prada or Target are.

I try to channel my inner public jazz radio station announcer when I do the voice over.

The free binoculars were great.... the bathroom situation was... not so great.

Thanks for watching this. When I saw that there was an old air base there, I thought, what a great opportunity to use the drone.
Very cool video. Love the history. Great drone footage as well to show the overlay of the land. We passed by some weird lights on our way up I10. I do like the old sign. That was spooky cool. lol Great video as always buddy. You are killing it.
Thanks man, I appreciate the compliments. Hope y'all are having safe travels.
Abandoned places freak me out, the lights are crazy!
I'm cool with abandoned places. I don't like it when a place is touted as haunted, and then tours are offered, because then someone is usually doing something creepy just to help sell it as haunted.
The shiny diner is the only coolest thing in this video. The plaque is barely unreadable even on paused ..
That's a big reason why I've upgraded camera gear
im rdy for someone to wait till dark, wait till theres lights, then fly the drone out to the light and see what exaxtly it is if possible

Love it! We will be back near your area soon. We need to get together again. Share some of your editing wisdom with us please.
editing wisdom? It's a lot of work, not sure there is any wisdom, LOL. Sometimes I think, "what have I gotten myself into?"

No worries, please don't feel like you have to watch all of our videos. Life can be very busy. I struggle to keep up with all of our friends videos.
@@TexasFamilyCamping Thanks Dave! It's amazing how much time TH-cam can suck up. It's like a black hole sometimes! 😩😨
Would you mind if I used some of your footage for a project I’m working on?
absolutely, can you credit our channel and video where ever you post it? Are you planning to use a lot of it, or just a few seconds?
How far from the airfield do the lights occur?
Well, that's hard to answer. By my guess, 10 miles
