Hi Ausia And MooMoo and Friends, Great video love the old school house that is beautiful country. Ok. Take Care Be Safe and God Bless Us All.Gloria Thee 62 year's young traveling Nomad in Waiting.. Happy Traveling...
Enjoyed the old school tour although a bit creepy. I just bought my forever van and will be ripping out the 5 bench seats and starting the build out tomorrow! Hope to meet you both on the road some day.
I just retired from being Principal at the newer Loma School!! ( just up the road from the old school)We are currently full time but staying in FruitA Co for a bit!!
HOWDY LADY GREAT VIDEO AS USUAL THE STAIRS ON THE SIDES OF THE SCHOOL ARE THE FIRE ESCAPES FOR THE SECOND FLOOR. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. KEEP THE SHINY SIDE UP AND BE HAPPY, HAVE FUN AND MOST OF ALL ONWARD BOUND.
Hey Ausia it's been awhile glad to see you're doing well. Maybe we'll run into each other this winter I'm probably going to do the LTVA again this winter. Keep safe up there.
Thanks MUCH for the share and Video! Food looked yummy, but as you thought... more than a little over-priced! :( All the BEST to you and safe travels! Cheers :)
We all have to figure the cost of labor during pandemic. No one wants to work. Seen it over and over. Every store seems sort staff etc. Add price of food. It is a much wiser choice to go but something and make it your self. It sucks cause it lessons your feel, experience of the area and the people. But right you pay high prices or I would pack a lunch.
@@jamiefaizfahmy9740 Stores reduced the workforce during the pandemic. Now they want to operate with fewer people. I was in Walmart this morning. Full store and only 3 people working registers. No help wanted signs were to be seen.
@@DannyB-cs9vx Yes Walmart has done this in a lot of stores. But the manger of a store I talked to when I asked if someone could check me out. I have rheumatoid arthritis and is very hard for me to do. At least at any speed. She said they just don't have employees. She said they might get half through training then they quit. I was floored because my disability is nothing compared to some. I was like if someone clearly disabled comes through you will not help them. She said our hands are tied and we do what we can. Unbelievable. Then when in a gas station here in Arizona same thing. A manger said it is like 400 dollars to train and employee. She hired 5 only one made it a week. That is seriously a problem right now. But I do agree Walmart has gone to ya know what. Every time I go no matter what you have to check your self out and there is a long line. I can't imagine how people who are truly struggling to get their supplies, food, etc do it w move disabilities than I have. I mean in a wheel chair etc. It is a was state we are all in right now when there is no help for those who truly need it.
Ausia, I'm not sure if you have noticed, it may be an editing thing, but your last few (10 plus) videos the videos stops brief and seems jittery. Then it clears up. No, it is not my internet connection as I don't see it on any other channels I watch. I hope it isn't your camera. Take care and safe travels.
Food vendors are not shy about over charging. I’m not sure if they’re trying to make up for their COVID hardships or what but my wife and I are cooking at home more now.
Cool look at Grand Junction and nearby towns. Nice to be able to check that out. The gardens looked nice and cooler place to sit. Spooky old school. Maybe they had an earthquake that damaged a project to restore it. Just wondering what part of Illinois John will be going to. I grew up in southern and central Illinois and hope to go back for my high school reunion around labor day. Safe travels to you both.
That school was pretty cool! It would have been cool to see the inside but I agree it looks like someone is probably living there or maybe working on it. The central air unit looked pretty new. That was an expensive lunch for two people! Reminds me of a pancake house we went to in Tennessee one year. Ended up paying $40.00 for pancakes for two people. Crazy!
That looks pretty old to me. Most of those buildings did not look new to me. Idk maybe check history. Enjoyed seeing though looks nice, clean, w lots of green around.
Love your videos. We're traveling through Colorado to Wyoming and was wondering if there is any construction/detours between Gunnison and Montrose? We heard that 50 was closed up there, is it? BTW, my husband, David Wanders has been following you it seems like forever!!
They're back home in Bremerton WA. I believe they are in the process of getting the truck camper off and looking for perhaps a small 5th wheel trailer. They want a little more room. i imagine they'll be heading back down to SW AZ. in late fall or at least that's what the time frame has been in the past if all comes together on the new type of RV they hope to get.
They have a channel. Destination Open Road. About 4 mths ago they went back home to WA. they will return to the Desert in the fall . No idea why they stopped posting .
A couple lives in part of the school-bottom corner. I heard they want to sell it but at this point it needs too much work! It was used as a school up until 1982.
I think food prices have gone through the roof. I went to the grocery store today and beef was 3 times the cost per pound today than what it was last Friday. A friend is a food supplier for restaurants. He tells me his prices have more than doubled this week. He's seen nothing like this before, and he's 30 years in the restaurant/food business.
They're busy right now getting things put together for a new style rig for this fall. At least that's the impression they gave when they headed back home.
Looks like yall had a nice Sunday drive. Pretty garden. Like that cactus flower, so pretty. Lunch a lil pricey, gotta splurge sometimes. Be nice if the old school was fixed up and used for some purpose. Poor Lucky, he's an older fella. Enjoyed. 😊👍
@@SoloHiker1 Wrong. So wrong. So Strange how some choose to ignore or overlook so much the past yrs prior. Such an improvement now, but healing the damage will take yrs.
Thank you. Hoping John understands the Boxers hate the heat. Lucky is a great looking Boxers. Love the breed. What's going on with the limping? How old is Lucky? Love that MooMoo, but Boxers are my heart dogs. Please that special care, watch out for the HEAT, please.
looks like the school i went to in Stillwell Ks. Long 4 rooms with 3 grades per room and 1 teacher per room taught each 3 grades. 1st grade through 12th grade in the 1 building.
last time I ate out was at T bones steak house we paid 55.00 not including tip and we never buy alcohol drinks .. I wad soda water , he had a coke, I had french onion soup and a chicken Cesar salad and he bought scallops ... yep too expensive ... and honestly I am a germphobe I hate other people preparing , serving or touching my food
My guess is earthquake damage. Not safe to be in that building. Too bad tho. It looks like it was well built and solid. Earthquakes could very easily bring it down.
If you have to ask were we just ripped of screwed over every way till Sunday you probably were yikes 48 smacker that is probably why there are no locals eating at that place it is just one big rip off joint.
The food looked really good, because prices are going up on everything we usually split a dinner, order water and sometimes get an extra side. In this heat we tend to eat less anyway. It’s not difficult to spend $50 for 2 on dinner. Even local eateries have increased prices because of the higher prices. It’s crazy that so many places are limiting hours because of lack of help. Too many don’t want to work! I was wondering if you could send your drone up and see if there’s a trail to that water? Yawl take care! Safe travels!
The minute I saw $12 for a sandwich which wasn't a lunch, I'd have turned around & walked away. It's Grand Junction, not NYC! The playground at the old Loma School was cool! Actually when I was a kid the playgrounds looked exactly like that one.
I loved the video! :)
Wow that lunch was expensive. It looked yummy though
It was good! besides the cheese curd, they could have been better but oh well
@@rvpandamonium 😄
I’m a fan of the travel together idea. It just makes sense to reduce the risk of getting stranded in some remote area.
Fun video, thanks. Ausia, whatever happened to Destination Open Road? Are they not doing videos anymore?
Been wondering my self 😕.
My husband and I have been wondering the same, hope everything is OK with them
Everybody better get used to the higher prices. Everything is going up.
lol I think that was that food truck, everywhere else was still priced normally
@@rvpandamonium And normal in the states is crazy expensive from my experience
@@rvpandamonium Just paid over $34 for KFC, 4 breasts and 2 large slaws...and 2 burritoes...still. Used cars have gone up 45%....
Supply and demand. Prices will fall and rise.
@@RedBlazeKid Not really More like the beginning of hyperinflation and the collapse of theUS Dollar

I love your hair like that.
Love watching all your videos . Like how you did your hair looks cute on you.
Thank you so much!!
I just retired from being Principal at the newer Loma School!! ( just up the road from the old school)We are currently full time but staying in FruitA Co for a bit!!
Does Fruita still have a good wrestling team? Back in the early 70 they did.
@@RobertSmith-tq6mf yes. All their teams are great!
Do you know the future plans for the old school?
@@johnettew3957 haven’t heard anything. It’s currently privately owned.
HOWDY LADY GREAT VIDEO AS USUAL THE STAIRS ON THE SIDES OF THE SCHOOL ARE THE FIRE ESCAPES FOR THE SECOND FLOOR. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. KEEP THE SHINY SIDE UP AND BE HAPPY, HAVE FUN AND MOST OF ALL ONWARD BOUND.
Thank you Jay!
Very cool! I wouldn't want to go there at night 😳
Hey Ausia it's been awhile glad to see you're doing well.
Maybe we'll run into each other this winter I'm probably going to do the LTVA again this winter.
Keep safe up there.
That would be cool! Thanks
I agree. Way too expensive for that food and from a food truck!

Thanks for watching!
Thanks Again For Sharing
I love how you gracefully roll with life's punches.
Hi Guys. Like your hair Ausia. Lucky and Moo-moo appears to be enjoying their outing today. Onward Bound.
$4 for a soda, No refills.

Isn't that the truth.

R they back together or is this a older post?? I’m hoping they r together
I think Ausia has replied to that a few times now.
Ausia needs to do what she thinks best
We decided to travel together as friends

No, it is not my internet connection as I don't see it on any other channels I watch. I hope it isn't your camera. Take care and safe travels.
I had noticed this too and thought it must have been just me
Yup does that for me too
Yes, we've mentioned it before and I think she's aware of it. 😊
auntmaryspals ok thanks. I must have missed seeing the reply before. Don't mean to be repeat pain. LOL
I so want to come to Colorado but I’m terrified of the mountain roads and drop off.
All I can say is you can try to work through your fears and not let them hold you back from what you want to do. Yes it will be scary
Are you going with John to Illinois?
Yes I am, then we are going to the Skoolie UP in Michigan
@@rvpandamonium Sounds like a great time. Enjoy and be safe
Your hair looked so nice in this video! neat old school I love old buildings : ) thanks for the look see walk about : )
Be in Denver/Boulder with Kelly and David starting 7.24. Cant wait.
Awesome!

Hope everything ok at your homestead. Flagstaff having crazy flash flooding
I believe so no bad reports form Ed and Sue

@@rvpandamonium Thanks
Where is Terri and Scott? I can't find out what's going on with them and miss getting updates.
They're back home in Bremerton WA. I believe they are in the process of getting the truck camper off and looking for perhaps a small 5th wheel trailer.

Being from Wisconsin, I'd say that was a fair amount of cheese curds for $9. Here, you'd pay $6 for half that amount.
So what you’re saying is Wisconsin is even more stupid expensive Great
Those lunch prices were crazy too expensive, those were olive garden prices for a "barf wagon". Wow
Olive Garden is pretty barfy itself
OMG. I just love the braids in your hair. Was a fun video. Thank U for taking us along. ❤️🐕🌈
Thanks! Glad to have you along
48 bucks for lunch ! Ouch ! Hope it was good . Nice sight seeing tour. luv the old buildings.
Very interesting tour … the school definitely looks haunted ! Yikes !
Glad you enjoyed it

I think a lot of us would like a update on Scott and Teri.
Is their Channel still up and running
@@anybodyoutthere3208 Their channel is still up , but no postings in about a month and a half .
They're busy right now getting things put together for a new style rig for this fall. At least that's the impression they gave when they headed back home.
Cheese curds here in northeast are mozzarella sticks served same way. You are right they are best when ooey gooey.
Down town Grand junction . 💘 it

Look like if a earthquake came by through that old school. That's crazy with all those cracks, kisses to MooMoo. Be safe out there.
If you read the menu, it has there prices posted, yes, it adds up quick.
The tower looks like a training tower for firefighters 🚒
I enjoyed this awesome. The prices have gone up here too in Massachusetts . 💕💕🐾🐾
THAT SANDWICH LOOKED GOOD! LOL
I thought you guys were splitting in different path? I am glad you are back.❤️❤️❤️
Well I had 2 options head to Utah and meet friends or travel with Jon east but just as friends!
@@rvpandamonium ❤️
Covid has driven food prices up. Are you still going to meet up with friends in Utah?
They're probably in Michigan by now. They were in Illinois a few weeks back.
Not covid as much as the current administration.

I would've wanted to go into the school to look around.
Hello Aushia
Nice place. U paid to much,
Sand road robbery . Do you have a brake controller on the Toad? Ever explore Mo ?
Camp Safe
Ratting out has gotten so expensive.The price of everything has gone up so much!The only thing that didn't go up was anyone's wages.
Fast food places in California are paying $16/perhour with benefits to start. Still having trouble getting help
Interesting school. Now let's go play on the swings. 😃
That tower looks to be a TV station?
It's a cell tower. We've had one like it in our township for years. 🙂
it would make a great bnb
There's probably alot of wildlife living in that school. It looks like great place during bad weather. 🌧️
looks like the school i went to in Stillwell Ks. Long 4 rooms with 3 grades per room and 1 teacher per room taught each 3 grades. 1st grade through 12th grade in the 1 building.

is that a man in the passenger seat ?
Trans but thanks for asking
Love the old school😊 Was the food worth the cost?
Amen~!

The playground at the old Loma School was cool! Actually when I was a kid the playgrounds looked exactly like that one.
That cell tower was built that way to keep it out of the wind and for safety reasons.
Thanks for the info
Loma tweeker school?
Food truck prices are getting outrageous. Since the Great Food Truck Race started, they think the are gourmet cafe’s now.
Neat little school. I love looking at old places like that. ♥️❣️🙏🏼❣️♥️
I do too
I love old buildings.
What is it,wht is it?? There's nothing there🤣 That food was really expensive omg😳 creepy school 4 sure
lol.. yes definitely
Oh saw the lizard
The school looks like it may fall any min. Yikes ! Food looked good but yes way too high priced.
There is a great gardens right in Flagstaff
That was way to pricey for lunch. They didn't even offer seating.
U got to be kidding I would have bought a loaf of bread and some lunch meat ,then to pay 48 dollars from a taco truck.
Ahhhhh boo😻
Yes $48 for a food truck 😳. FYI love your furry friends. The school has some integrity issues! Thanks for the vid
Right!! Thanks for watching
That is a pricey food truck, the curds from Q sound good gooey. 💜pretty little garden
Yes it was
Free margaritas......gets in car drives across country......worth it 🤣🤣
I like your hair like that ❤️
Thanks!
Little Moo Moo seems to be slowing down lately. Breaks my heart. How old is she? Maybe it’s just me. I hope so.
$48 for 2 people is crazy! Even gor a food truck around here food trucks cost more but not that much!
Cheese curds should be chewy and squeaky.
Interesting patch on Jon's cap.
Im surprised that building hasnt collapsed
