You got both of my suggestions! The old Pancake roller rink (now a winery) is a local landmark
Nicely done Noles ! I have a friend that owns property in Smock . It is a very small town , But is a clean and peaceful place .
I actually haven’t been there myself, but I find that whole area to be peaceful and beautiful!
Another great video!
pancake is a separate town from laboratory. pancake skate'n'whirl, a gas station and a bar. always wondered where laboratory got it's name.🍻
