    They sure don't breed them like good ol Leonard no more. Leonard himself was too good for this earth. For somebody who spent most of his life in the desert he sure was Aquaman aswell. Leonard at the hot springs held his breath underwater for over 4 minutes. People used to hang around or jump in to check in him make sure he didn't drown. 24k heart of gold with a platinum spirit that man was truly precious. Sure do miss him. I would love to build a pond and attach a pump to bring those waterfalls he painted to life even if it's just for one night Leonard deserves it. I appreciate your kind words.

Obviously they are still supporting propaganda, anti white agendas. Black dreams matter.... White dreams matter.... They separate people and fools separate themselves from humanity following political figures and agendas. Along with the "Republicans are bad" on the TV so obviously they are brainwashed Democrats who obviously don't see the flaws in both parties. I personally wouldn't go to this place.

Mike is a good guy that came from a foreign country, and loves this country, and is more "American" than liberals born here, as most LEGAL immigrants, especially eastern Europeans are. I find it funny when people complain about one of his videos they don't like. You KNOW they are liberals! If he posts something I'm not particularly interested in, I "like" it to support him, and his channel then... turn it off! It's really quite simple, and I don't feel the need to waste mine, and his time berating him, because "I" me me me me me me me am not interested in the content of one of his videos. They are definitely liberals. lol As for the Salton Sea, it was created in the early 1900's by the failure of a canal being built. When they stopped the flow of water it started to evaporate increasing the salinity which destroyed it, and everything around it. While liberals do destroy everything they touch, the rich and famous weren't liberals back then, and it wasn't their fault. If the Salton Sea was still a beautiful oasis today, the Liberal Land Of Make Believe residents would surely destroy it though. 😂

You took your time to show us what you saw and that was pretty cool. I also liked it when you were both interactive with the art. I especially liked the sword fight. And the dancing? OMG! You were both cool and so much fun to watch. There are so many of us who live to far away visit this lawless place, so I would really like to thank the both of you for making it so much fun for all of us. Two handsome and fun loving guys, what’s not to love and enjoy? You were both amazing, and I cannot imagine anyone not smiling here and there. Me? Lots of smiles, wonderment, and a bit of laughing here and there with the both of you. Chii miigwetch! Thank you very much Lots of love, smiles and laughter sent to all of you from the Interior of Alaska. Be well 🎈

    I drove down there once or twice with this vagabond family and found it a desolate place. The places burned out were the tweakers and methheads that caused trouble and robbed folks. There's a bunch of winter old folks who go down there but in a different area. The place gave me the creeps but this dude dragged his wife and kids down there because he liked it. He was a real conman. He had an 18 year old daughter he used as bait to scam guys and he almost got me involved in blackmailing an LA sheriff's lieutenant. I said no thanks and he suddenly turned on me. Weird times back then. I had a big RV I moved around LA while I worked in the limousine industry. LA got too weird so I left finally after 13 years. Looks like the people are all hiding, most are more than strange.

    If anyone would like more information about this area, the General Patton museum on Interstate 10 at Chirica summit has a great presentation. This is where soldiers learned to operate tanks and such. Their training area went roughly from slab city, then north to Joshua Tree and also 29 Palms where the Marines still have a base. I can't imagine how desolate this place must have been back in the 40's.

    Actually, it was LESS desolate.. especially in winter.. there were resorts for snowbirds everywhere.. people have been snowbirding in Slab City since the 1940s...I've seen vintage footage only as far back as the 1980s, and it was AlOT different.. people have been going to the desert for winter for about 75 yrs at least if not more..
