Loved the video. My dad grew up in Missouri and I heard folk lore about the the creeks moving after the earthquakes. I loved the museum and wished I could have seen it when we visited Missouri when I was a kid. Thanks for sharing.
This was such an enjoyable watch one of my fav videos so far way to go Russ your adventures are the best You obviously like to head out real early on Saturday and Sundays mornings to beat the traffic !
Been watching your Arkansas tour and enjoyed it since I used to travel the entire state for work many years ago. There is so much to see and you explored most of it...missed a few things in Eureka Springs...but that can be another trip. Now watching the trip from Wickliffe, KY, since I am very familiar with that area also. My hometown is Blytheville, Ar. the NE corner of Arkansas on the Mississippi River, where we would have to ride a ferry to cross the Mississippi River, going to Kentucky or Tennessee, many years ago before a bridge was built near Caruthersville, Missouri, to cross the river. Thanks for the journey, it brings back lots of memories! I have watched several thus far....Louisiana, Iowa, Missouri...
Hey Russ, wanted to give you just a bit more history on the New Madrid earthquake. The Mississippi River flowed backward during that time. An underground river in a cave in Cave City, AR (14 miles north of my hometown, Batesville, AR) rose with muddy water. The quake was felt in Washington, DC. Crowley's Ridge in eastern AR was formed from this earthquake. If you had traveled across the Mississippi River from New Madrid into TN you would have seen Reel Foot Lake which was formed as the result of the quake. There is a seismograph in a museum there that is constantly recording quakes in the area, most of which are 2.0 are less range. Thanks for the road trip.
Really enjoy your videos. I am surprise you had not heard about the great earthquake before. Having lived in this area and fished in reelfoot lake that was formed from this earthquake we know about all of the history. There are some great books on this and some on line reads. It was very well documented in all the nations newspapers during that era. the noises that came during the quake the cracking and groaning that a lot the news paper articles wrote about always got me!! I watch tress in my yard sway from right to left during a 5.0 aftershock in late 1969 . Never will forget that day!! Looking forward to seeing a road trip on the river road! Thanks for what you do Tom
I love that you are down in our area, too cool! It's neat to see the place through the eyes of a newbie. It's very quiet around here, which I love. And yes, we still do occasionally get woken up with a little shake here and there.
GOD BLESS , UNITED STATES AMERICA , RUSS , RVerTV FANS. WE LOVE RVerTV - GRAND JOURNEY THRU - U.S.A. - GRAND VIDEOS - GRAND MUSIC. SNOW / 3 INCHES/ COLD - IN EASTERN CANADA. THANK YOU RUSS.😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Thank you Russ, it was really good to see that beautiful area. I read somewhere about the earthquakes, I think it was in a story set at the time in a boat on the river.
Thanks again for sharing this area of ur travels!! I’m going to Kentucky and Southern Illinois from Colorado to see the eclipse next month!! I went to college in Carbondale, IL so I know Cairo and I did my clinicals in Missouri. This video is great. Thanks❤
All that rain is needed to keep the river flowing and all those trees green. Cairo is mentioned as the most desolate city/town in America having lost so many residents. Kind of sad but I've read southern illinois folks have little in common with the north. My great grandpa was a farmer where you show the rivers coming together. I've never been there so your video is awesome for me. Cheers. 👍
Hey Russ! Thanks for the wonderful travel video. You went to places I have never been. Very interesting! I really like the drone footage. Keep up the fine work. We appreciate what you do. Stay safe!
I just discovered your channel this morning. We usually travel across the Mississippi and Ohio rivers at this location. I believe that is the shortest road through 3 states, one mile from the state line over the Miss to the state line over the Ohio. We were there last September and crossed the Mississippi bridge the last day it was open. You mentioned how rough it was, it was really bad when we crossed. We love Lamberts too. We have stayed in the parking lot before they added the RV park. If you're ever back to the Wycliff area, there is a great State Park south of there, Columbus Bellmont SP, Civil War battle field above the Mississippi.
I remember the back roads you're filming. Lived in KCMO for 11 years. In 2018 I made the call to go home to Alaska. Alaska changed in population. However, it didn't change in simplicity and appreciation for the all outdoors activities.
My Third Great Grandfather was a youth in Missouri during this earthquake. What a horror to be around that! His family was unharmed but I am certain all was a wild time. They were flour millers and also farmed a bit of newly settled land. My husband and I used to live in the Southeast so we have traveled in an RV in that area near the Mississippi in Kentucky, Missouri and in Tennessee.
I have the pass. It's called "America The Beautiful". If you go to a national park, they'll sell you one at the counter and give you the card and dashboard placard right there. If you're over a certain age - it's a one-time fee, (think it's 70 or bucks? ),. Good across the nation and worth every penny. May not work in certain places though.
I lived in Shawnee Kansas and worked in Kansas City, Missouri. Enjoyed visiting nearby towns. St Joseph, MO-historic sites. The House where Jesse James outlaw was shot and the Pony Express. Check out the educational Glore psychiatric museum. Weston, MO-quaint small town has the 1800 store front businesses, known for Historical museum, winery & distilleries and steamboat port. Decorated for Christmas. Kansas City known for Spanish influence with many impressive fountains. Check out the Arabia Steamboat Museum. Nelson Atkins museum. Bingham -Waggoner Estate Mansion decked out for Christmas. Independence, MO- visit the Vaile Victorian Mansion full of history. Home of Harry S Truman, museum, gravesite & library. Topeka, MO has a wonderful Kansas Museum of History. Lawrence, MO- Native American influence and Powwow Cultural festival.
The Ozarks, also known as the Ozark Mountains, Ozark Highlands or Ozark Plateau, is a physiographic region in the U.S. states of Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma and the extreme southeastern corner of Kansas. The Ozarks cover a significant portion of northern Arkansas and "most of the southern half of Missouri****,"extending from Interstate 40 in central Arkansas to Interstate 70 in central Missouri.
Russ, you missed the best of Sikeston. At ine time it had the most millionaires per capita. Southeast Missouri is a drained swamp, also called "Swampeast" Missouri.
Illinois, Cairo, Sikeston, New Madrid were all mispronounced. I think you finally pronounce Sikeston correctly, but New Madrid really grates on the nerves of the locals. I can imagine how you'd pronounce Cape Girardeau. 🤣 That said, my mother loves your channel.
u must visit pawn shop also .i love to see pawn shop items . IDK i cant imagine if the world is this much beautiful 'how paradise will be ? and God said that the last person who would enter in paradise i would give him land 10 times bigger than the earth . how perfect place that would be . by the way u didnt say mcdonalds, u said yuck donalds .what does that mean . yuck means u dont like it ?

Again, another interesting trip !! And once again I have traveled many of those same roads, on my motorcycle trips.
That whole area is so historic !
Getting ready for our adventures this year. Thanks for the adventures Russ!

I live just west of St Louis. When I hear the town pronounced, they say New “Mad” “rid”
don't pronounce the s in Illinois either, but meh...we got the message either way.
Really enjoy your videos. I am surprise you had not heard about the great earthquake before.

I love the Reelfoot Lake area....fished there many times and the restaurants are great. Sure do miss it...
Thank you very much Russ !.
I love small town back roads travel. All kinds of neat little surprises.
Enjoyed the road trip, Russ, Thanks for sharing
Really enjoyed this trip with you. Love your adventures.

I have been through Cairo Illinois via U.S.Highway 80.
Thanks Russ for letting me visit Cairo once again
This was Amazing. Thank you so much. Can't stop thinking about the Museum town.
Glad you tried Lambert's!! We stop whenever we are down that way! My dad always used to say that Illinois has narrow bridges and friendly people!!
But Lamberts is in Missouri.
Russ, the man, the legend the rvr. I wish you safe travels. Talk soon, Alan.
Hey Russ! Thanks for the wonderful travel video. You went to places I have never been. Very interesting! I really like the drone footage. Keep up the fine work. We appreciate what you do. Stay safe!
Do you ever publish the route you travel?
Nice and clean laid out well great town
Russ another awesome ride along. Be well and as always wishing you safe travels

Beautiful country Russ
Looking forward to traveling the Mississippi River Road! Interesting state park near Natchez with a RV park adjacent!
Hi russs thanks for a great tour always good to see other parts of the usa . Cheers mate🇦🇺
Excellent. Thank you for sharing 🎉

You mention in your videos that you have a pass that gets you in parks. What pass is it? Is it good for all states?
I have the pass. It's called "America The Beautiful". If you go to a national park, they'll sell you one at the counter and give you the card and dashboard placard right there. If you're over a certain age - it's a one-time fee, (think it's 70 or bucks? ),. Good across the nation and worth every penny. May not work in certain places though.
@@jimp.7286 it’s 80.00 dollars now
I live in the Ozarks. This is a really well done video.
Nice ride along. Ty 🙂👍
Hi! Me and my wife enjoy watching your video. I know this is a weird question, but do you narrate live or do voice over?
That's a gorgeous area !
We Love the videos. We would like to know the music you are using in your videos. We love it. Thanks for your time and videos.
I definitely enjoyed this 😊
Been waiting for you to find a blacksmith demo! Out at historic gold mines was able to catch big of living history!
We have eaten at Lamberts one time. Great food and real fun! :)
Illinois s is SILENT
I don't have a phone...Missouri is a beautiful state.

You drove right past our house on 62 when you came thru Possum Trot Kentucky! But it wasn’t on the film😂
Great video😊

I live about 150 miles west of New Madrid and am disappointed that you didn't drive by my house off Highway 60 and toot your horn. Maybe next time.
Next time!
WOW
That ain't smoke or fog...it's the humidity!
It's amazing how fast 95 minutes can go by. You must have a lot of B rolls.
54:44. That would be the New Madrid earthquake fault. I believe one of the past quakes was powerful enough to change the flow of the Mississippi
It's pronounced New Mad Red.
New MAD rid.
I like to follow along on maps, and the MS bridge is closed now! Hope they are widening it!
You mean the MS (Mississippi) bridge from Cairo, Illinois, to MO (Missouri?)
Also, go west and north of Sikeston, you have hills. Did you know the Ozarks are also in Missouri?
I love your music. What is the name of it?
New Madrid, had know idea! Missouri 62 not as pretty as Arkansas 62. Do Kansas and take Hwy 160 across. On to the next one.🤠
Missouri Ozarks are beautiful.
Sikeston has the annual Cotton Carnival. And a big rodeo in Aug.
Could the haze be humidity?
Russ, you missed the best of Sikeston. At ine time it had the most millionaires per capita. Southeast Missouri is a drained swamp, also called "Swampeast" Missouri.
❤❤
You wondered what they grow around there, lots of cotton and rice.
You must get up early , you are an early bird, I like to get up at sunrise time, I sets my alarm for sunrise time, you must get up before the dawn
We had earthquake in Southern AZ took San Pedro River underground
You should research the New Madrid fault line. It's a big deal.
Largest earthquake in recorded in geologic history?
Missouri grows mostly soybeans and corn
Grew up in southern Missouri. Cotton was a big crop, too. My parents chopped cotton as kids, and Sikeston has the Cotton Carnival every September.
Illinois, Cairo, Sikeston, New Madrid were all mispronounced. I think you finally pronounce Sikeston correctly, but New Madrid really grates on the nerves of the locals. I can imagine how you'd pronounce Cape Girardeau. 🤣
That said, my mother loves your channel.
I think it's pronounced New MAD-rid.
u must visit pawn shop also .i love to see pawn shop items .
IDK i cant imagine if the world is this much beautiful 'how paradise will be ?
and God said that the last person who would enter in paradise i would give him land 10 times bigger than the earth .
how perfect place that would be .
by the way u didnt say mcdonalds, u said yuck donalds .what does that mean .
yuck means u dont like it ?
People always end up in Sikeston lol
It's a major Crossroads. Interstate 55 and 57 meet here.
Fun video til you didn’t know how to pronounce Illinois. 👎🏻
😂
So many mispronounced names and misidentified highways.
