    I seriously hope this epic video brings in a lot of tourists and FILLS UP Gary's hotel! If I were in the US, I'd definitely be taking a road trip there!

    I have been waiting and hoping for the day you would make it to our little slice of amazing here in ND, depending on the direction you go many towns in ND tend to have very large sculptures of animals. to help draw people in to stop and stretch their legs. some examples are the world's largest buffalo, the world's largest cow, the world's largest walleye and many more.

    I can't believe you made it into the hotel and stay to show us! That is absolutely awesome! We did the highway back in 2021. We saw the castle, but it was closed. I would love to stay here! Thanks for sharing. It's very cool 😎

    So, my home state is North Dakota, and I die on the inside when I hear people say there's nothing there worth visiting. There is, oh there is.

    The Grasshoppers remind me of, "Honey, I Shrunk The Kids." Also, I lived in West Coast Florida for a few years, and there actually Is a species of Grasshopper there that those are Very Much Reminding me of, they're known as The Eastern Lubber Grasshopper, my suggestion would be to Google them if, or when you get a chance, you might find it worth the read, also you'll be able to compare pictures of The Eastern Lubbers, to the Enchanted Highway metal ones, and see I mean about the similarities in appearance between the two.

    I've been to 49 States too (Alaska to go)!!! My parents used to take the entire family on cross-country trips every Summer for up to 2 months. We'd trek from CA all the way to FL, to Vermont, Canada, all the way to back to CA. Every trip would be a different route.

    Dude - long time viewer, rare commenter. Just wanted to say that you are the best there is at this. I watch a lot of vloggers, most of whom you know and I used to enjoy a lot. Now, I find myself skipping a lot of their vlogs because it's the same thing day after day: Theme parks, sports, conventions, etc. Or, and this is my own cross to bear, I can't stand it when people mispronounce or misuse simple words. I was a radio announcer for like 30 years, and being from SW Virginia, I had some serious language issues (Accent, pronunciations et al) to overcome before I could evolve in said career. So, I find myself correcting people a lot. Basically, devolving into a troll, when I'm just trying to help.
    The point here is that, with you it's always such a variety of places and topics. AND! (HUGE bonus to me), I have never Once yelled at my TV when you used improper language or got a word wrong!! Of all the vloggers I watch, you are the only one I subscribe to.
    I wish all vloggers would take this as seriously as you, and actually work to put out content of your caliber.
    You're the best, man! I appreciate your efforts and intellect greatly.
