I grew up in green river loved every minute of it great times great people miss it so much 1974 to until I turned 19
I live in green river its 2022 now and it still hasn't changed it amazing.
I used to live on the property of the Hoffmans right next to the river from 1974 to 1976. We lived right by I-80 across from the huge bluffs which we used to climb around on. Mr. Hoffman was so nice to us and used to invite us to ice skate on his rink that he made during the winters. It was brutal in the wintertime, especially living I'm a trailer but we survived. Played little league and was on the swim team. We always had something to do there.
Growing up in GR was memorable... my Dad was a teacher and Principle at GRHS. Lots of good people there.
Touching story, I am moving to Green River.
My admiration for this town has increased a lot after this video.. I am Ahmed Saeed from Yemen from the Middle East.. I greet the residents of this wonderful townI wish one day in my life to be able to visit this town.
On a trip to Colorado this Summer with the family, my car broke down in Green River. It was a Sunday and I couldn't get a tow so we stayed over night at a motel on Flamingo Gorge Rd. The people we met were very friendly and helpful during our layover.
Hi. I'm thinking of moving there this year... thank you for the video... it was delightfully encouraging!
I lived in Green River twice. Owned a home both times. 1st time 1984-1985. 2nd time 1995-1996. There is nothing about it to recommend. If you grew up there and didn't know any better, maybe so. But if you were ever 10 miles out if town you wouldn't want to go back.
I keep watching videos of Wyoming and with every one I watch it makes me want to move there! Wyoming has everything I love! And the people seem so nice,one of a kind! I definitely see why the people love living there! This is another great Wyoming video!👍💖
I used to live here
I went to high school in Green River from 75 to 78. I miss Green River and the people. Thank you for the video. From England
Rudy delivered my first child blind folded. Thanks Rudy. You’re truly a wonderful man 🙂
我这个小镇住了3年，难以忘怀，我会去旅游，并且拍摄视频
Lived in GR several years ago. Have many friends still there
I live in rocksprings wy
Live there in the river wyoming I live in Green River Wyoming and I live on Wind river Drive 610 apartment A.
I did not expect when typing "Green River Wyoming" into the TH-cam search for the first video cause such a visceral emotional response as seeing Mr. Gunter and Mr. Maddox again. Thank you everyone involved and you two gentlemen for everything you did. Thank you all the way from Virginia.
My parents moved us out there when I was 5, and I loved it there! We stayed there for 3 years. We moved back to Missouri because we missed family. I still think about Greenriver and the great memories. I sure do miss it!!!
Wonderful video! Thank you.
I live here currently. It’s funny seeing the streets that I see every day, and seeing my high school.

I really enjoyed watching this video very upbeat thanks for sharing it
I loved this video, It reminded me of my home "Camanche, Iowa- population 3500 when I lived there, and the story of his art teacher Mr. Gunter. Also reminded me of my music Teacher and Vocal coach for voice lessons, Mrs Montgomery. I'm a vocal artist still to this day. Singing and still enjoying music. I'm 62 today, these kind of places and people stay with you all your life.
That is so lovely! 💖 Happy late birthday!😊
@@dowdlefolkartco Thank you, I've never received a personal message, from any other "Subscribed Channel I'm on. But to get a direct message, it touched my heart! The way I found you channel "Dowdle Folk Art" I was looking at your site, about all your Puzzles. I bought my first one the other day at a Thrift Store-It is the 1000 piece "Noah's Ark, with all the animals. It was a great find. I'm looking forward to start working on it. Sincerely, Kathy Hansen
That's awesome! you will definitely need to let us know how it goes putting it together!😊
Hi opal here. We just put a miniature golf course in our playground. With bean bag toss and horse shoes. Our golf clubs or putters are neon colors, I like that! So last Saturday we cut the ribbon ! They may add 9 more holes if this turns out great. Come have lunch sometime in OPAL sir in nice benches and under a tree or at the table area, but mostly have fun
Every time I drive cross-country i stop for 1-3 days - Flaming Gorge is gorgeous. And the people are truly nice/helpful. It also seemed to have diversity of population- surprising for such a small town.
Absolutely agree Katie! Coming from a small town myself, I can attest to the uniqueness of it! ;)
I was stranded here at first I thought “oh great” but within the first few hours the people here were very friendly and helpful they are probably some of the nicest people that I have met and this town is great stop and help us out a lot this video proves how nice these people are and I always can’t wait to make my next stop there again.
Yaya my hometown too
This brought tears to my eyes as it brought me back to my hometown, Puyallup, WA. It was a small town when I was growing up. Memories flood in of Mt. Rainier, daffodils, tulips, the Puyallup Fair, Raspberry and Strawberry fields, the puyallup river, Ezer Meeker house. etc. Thank you for sharing.
So good to hear Val, Small towns are amazing for so many reasons! We just might find ourselves coming to Puyallup, so let us know if there are any stories you'd like us to tell!
I live in green river wyoming it's small but home
I'm from GR Wyoming I miss it I love in ok now
I live there
Nevaeh's Channel me to
I live here I know every part of it
Eric, Thank you so much for this video! Yes, Rudy Gunter is the best. Rudy was my basketball coach and when we traveled to Cheyenne to play Central he let me be in the starting lineup. You see we had moved from there several years before and he knew it. I had no business starting but he knew it would mean something to me. I have never forgotten it! When Sandy said how Rudy has touched so many lives--it is true! Wayne Gosar
This has been on my list of cities to move to. I lived in a big metropolitan city my whole life. Philadelphia, and I hate it here. So much crime and trash everywhere. Murders and thieves. I’ve been looking into towns like these to move to. It’s a big change, but it’s the change I’m looking for. This town looks beautiful.
Eric, really nice job on your video. Nice to see people who love there home town. I love Wyoming. My dad was from Superior Wyoming. We spent 2 weeks every summer there when we were kids. Still when ever my brother and sisters get together we always end up talking about the great trips to Wyoming. Funny how the teachers who have such an impact on so many are so humble.
Glad you like it in GR. I lived there once it was nice that was in the 70s
i live here in Green river wyoming this town is a good place ever one know each other and is there for each other
So great! Hometown truly helps to mold us to what we become.
Do you know me
Aside from me ...screw it This Man/Artist and TEACHER is awesome!
Reamber you let the goats in your house
Biggest life thrill is high school ?
Hi there. I am seriously considering moving my family from southern New Jersey to your home town. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind chatting with me a bit about Green River. Thank you.
Green River is an amazing place
Ive lived there it really is
You will forever be an outsider, no matter how long you live there.
If anyone knows George Estes I guess he is my biological father. I want nothing but to maybe havea beer and talk with him for a few. I was adopted at birth to a WONDERFUL Family that highly supports me. My birth mothers name is brenda dworek it was brenda haselhuhn at the time. Again jan 15 1977 in Florence Arizona Penal County.
"I can hear the bull frog callin' me
Wonder if my rope's still hangin' to the tree
Love to kick my feet way down the shallow water,
Shoe fly, dragon fly, get back t your mother
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across *Green River*
Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, oh,
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old Cody, Junior took me over,
Said, you're gonna find the world is smouldrin'
An' if you get lost come on home to *Green River*
Well, come home"
I live there bra
Hahah, Hamel is in this
BattleWarrior10 yeah boi of couse hes in it
BattleWarrior10 my uncle's in this
Shut up dolton
BattleWarrior10 fuck off
this is false, wyoming doesnt exist
Oh no! Our mistake, we wrongfully assumed since Eric grew up there, it must exist. Our deepest apologies.
That’s funny and true.
