I believe that “mesquite” tree is actually an elm. We have them all over LBK county. They grow great for several years then all of a sudden they’re dead. But nearly every abandoned place around here has them. I’ve cut several cords of elm for firewood just due to their availability in this area.
You may be right. That might be a Golden Wych Elm, which are somewhat rare here in West Texas, and might be why I thought it was a mesquite. Also, I found out through another viewer that the incinerator stack might've been a brick kiln at one time. You all are smart. Cheers. :)
Brand new chain, apparently, and very nice & clean. The original one, I'm told, is up the road from that location in the town of Tarzan, Texas. Thus, the name, I suppose. Cheers and thanks. :)
Great video Tim - loved seeing you all out having a good old laugh and awesome time on the bikes, and exploring some really cool derelict buildings! Why the long face... oh dear LOL!
Well bugger me! That looked like yet another awesome day of riding and exploring mate! I always love seeing the abandoned stuff you find! Oh man, quit horsing around! lol
Heh-heh. Those ain't twisties. Those are go-too-fast-and-wad-it-in-the-sandy-spot curves. The good motorcycle roads in West Texas are down around Fort Davis. The rest are straight as an arrow, dusted with sand and gravel, or all of the above. ;-)
Ah, Autumn. A bit different there than here, but ours has been rather warm thus far, not a great deal of color in the trees yet except for the dogwoods. Got some interesting photos from early morning rides in southern VA, fog shrouding the valleys below the overlook at Hungry Mother State Park (not sure of the derivation of that name), one reward for venturing onto the Back of the Dragon at dawn. Between NC, VA, a small piece of KY, TN, MD and PA, got in nearly 2500 miles in the last 10 days, met several folks I've come to know through their YT channels. Great time of year (of course I'm biased, born on Halloween).
That's a great birthday date. Halloween is my favorite of all the holidays. Autumn is an on-off season here in Western Texas. One day, the air will be cool and refreshing, the next day it's 90º again. Still, we get some of the nice seasonal smells in the air and the cool nights are most enjoyable. Cheers, and upcoming Happy Birthday.
Thanks, Tim! It is a great birth date, hard to beat Samhain when you're a Celt at heart (hard to believe this body will be 67 though). Met up with a local vlogger named Ron C. on my way south, he put the Bonnie and me (more so the Bonnie) in a vid he called "Meeting a Subscriber", so I guess I'm mildly famous (or maybe notorious?) as I've appeared on two different channels now, each time with a different one of my Triumphs.
Nope, not this time. I'm not exactly the cleanest dobro player. That tune is from the TH-cam creator library. It's called 'Bill Higby'. Glad you liked the vid, BTW. Cheers and thanks.
Man... that's the best damn music you've ever put in one of your videos. Is that some slide blues on an old resonator guitar? One of y'all playing or just some royalty free stuff? Sounds like Justin Johnson. Jesse James has taken his metallic artistry to custom Damascus firearms manufacturing. In addition to his custom car and bike building.
I almost always have either an apple or some carrots for a lonesome horse or donkey I might run across while riding. I hope Britt found a place to pee that was to his liking! )

Thanks for the ride and adventure. Tarzan and Jane store, never heard of them.

The fall is crazy beautidul
Indeed it is, my friend.
Great video Tim - loved seeing you all out having a good old laugh and awesome time on the bikes, and exploring some really cool derelict buildings!
Why the long face... oh dear LOL!
Horses love to stirrup jokes. LOL.
@@TimKreitzAdventures You'll be forever saddled with the dad-joke reputation now :P
The soundtrack fits the video nicely.
Thank you. :)
Well bugger me! That looked like yet another awesome day of riding and exploring mate!
I always love seeing the abandoned stuff you find!
Oh man, quit horsing around! lol
Thanks! I should've stayed still and let that horse smell me a little longer before I put my hand out there. I bet he would've let me pet him. :-)
I always think of the episode when you walked back to the bikes and that drifter appeared out of thin air! Creepy! Great channel Tim
I'm so glad that didn't happen on this ride. Hahaha. Thanks!
Great video dude I love all the abandoned places 🏍🤙
Thanks, Tim. Me, too! :-)
The places and the things you show us are great, it's so much like here in Australia. Thanks Tim.
I've gotta get down there sometime. Australia is one of the few remaining things on my bucket list. Thanks, Kev!
Great episode! 👌😀
Thank you! :-)
Great video about not much 👍👍
Sometimes, those are the best rides.
Amazing
Thank you. :)
Ya gotta love those west Texas twisties!
Heh-heh. Those ain't twisties. Those are go-too-fast-and-wad-it-in-the-sandy-spot curves. The good motorcycle roads in West Texas are down around Fort Davis. The rest are straight as an arrow, dusted with sand and gravel, or all of the above. ;-)
@@TimKreitzAdventures The same here in Kansas!

There you are! Fantastic video as always tim
Much appreciated. ;-)
They would hear me screaming in Seattle if one of them monster bugs got in my helmet :D
Heh-heh. You get used to it. LOL. :-)
excellent video...Really like the guitar licks...were they yours?
Nope, not this time. I'm not exactly the cleanest dobro player. That tune is from the TH-cam creator library. It's called 'Bill Higby'. Glad you liked the vid, BTW. Cheers and thanks.
Another great little adventure Tim.
That dog! 🤣🤣
I reckon the rancher burns lost bikers In that thing. Careful!
🐕👍
Thank you, my friend. :)
👏
:-)
😂 got to let the horse smell you first before you act like you are intent on punching him in the lips. Love it out there, thanks for the trip!
Well, that's why I stuck my hand out there. LOL. Some horses are more skittish than others. My pleasure, BTW. :-)

That's a dobro piece from the creator library. Yeah, I liked it, too. The second I heard it, I knew I was gonna use it. Super cool.
I almost always have either an apple or some carrots for a lonesome horse or donkey I might run across while riding. I hope Britt found a place to pee that was to his liking! )
Oh he did! LOL. :-)
What part of west Texas is that
Glasscock County.
Don't pee randomly in that store. It took forever for them to get more then Stripes there.
That's a nice store, too.
What, no slightly used old mattresses, I'm disappointed!!
I know, right? LOL.
