Seabee Traveler
Добавлен 17 авг 2023
As I served in the US Navy Seabees I loved the travel and opportunities it provided. During my travels I took many photos and learned to love that as well. Over the years I never lost the love for travel and photography and hope to record and share my travels and the photos I manage to get with you.

Thanks, Randy👍
You're welcome, Lloyd. Have a good day!
What a great trip! That rock building is really cool. Nice rock work, takes advantage of breezes... Reminds me of my years in Texas, many years ago. Tha KS Randy.
You're welcome Craig. It's fun finding these places and being able to share them. Thanks and have a great week!
Several cool movies filmed here - my 2 faves are The Gauntlet with Squint Eastwood and Sondra Locke, and U-Turn with Sean Pean, Jennifer Lopez, Nick Nolte, Billy Bob Thornton, and more.. check 'em out!
Thanks BrakRulesAll, I will have to check them out. U-turn has some big names. Thanks for sharing and have a good week!
I believe that many people find that bridge, beautiful and peaceful. Doesn’t new bridge have signs saying you still have hope and the suicide phone number all over it.
Hi Jay, I didn't see the sign but you are probably right, it may have up on the road and I missed it. Thanks for sharing and have a great day1
From one Randy to another, thank you for taking me along.
Hi Randy, you're welcome. Have a great week!
Thank you for taking me on your travels. I can no longer travel and really enjoy your videos. You do exactly what I would do, drive through small towns and explore abandoned buildings. I would also include old cemeteries. Great videos.
Hi Cheryl, You're very welcome. I am enjoying my time out and exploring. Thanks for the cemetery advice and have a wonderful week!

Hi Randy, I really liked the gas station with the arches. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Zap, It was a neat little stop. Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
Lol I wouldn't be walking out there by myself in the Chiracahuas,,,, I might look too yummy to a jaguar
No wonder I enjoy your channel,,, fellow introvert here 👋🏼 My kind of travel buddy, you stop everywhere 😉
Hi 5wheels, I have learned to "stop and smell the roses" so to speak in these neat places. I used to just fly on by and never paid attention to the history. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week!
I jumped offshore a few times from Padre' Island, I was coming from the east so my views were different than yours...... Excellent trip so far...... I know you're back home now but just a heads up, we have a bad ferel hog problem in the south, they are aggressive and don't ever put yourself between a sow and her piglets because she will attack you..... See you next week
Thanks for the heads up Kajunguy. I had a feeling that's what they were. I try to stay away from the animals when I can. I know they can be dangerous. Thanks for sharing and we'll see ya on the next one!
Thank you for showing this
Hi Barbara, You're welcome. It was a fun one to do. Have a wonderful week!
Oh you missed out not eating at Lalla’s
Hey randy really enjoyed your vid. Know most of the area well as im a native new mexican (las cruces) did a bunch of work around lordsburg playas ,hachita rippin in fiber optic lines. thought it was quite a coincidence you stayed at the koa in lc, i knew the people that owned that, millers, went to high school with the daughter christy. I bought. An old 29 ford body from her brother eddie,that ild body was like a landmark been there for as many years as i can remember, it turned into a roundy round racer ! I bought that old body from eddie back in the early seventies. Say hi if any of them are still there. got a younger brother that lives by brownsville tx he visits padre when he can, hope you have an enjoyable trip ill be waitin on that vid thank you sir and thankyou for your service!😊
Hi Allen, It was a nice stay at the KOA. We got a little bit of a haboob that evening but overall it was pleasurable. That area of NM has so much history and I really enjoyed the Shakespeare ghost town. Thanks for sharing some of your history as well. Have a wonderful week and we'll see ya on the next one!
How those two screen doors were placed on that one old house is unusual.
Thanks!
Thank you very much Carl. Have a great week!
Texas looks so very interesting. Wanted to move to years ago until I started looking at Arizona. Thanks for another wonderful video, some education and entertainment too. And excellent photographs... again. A display of all your photos (I'd love to see) would need how much square footage? Randy, thank you for taking us along. See ya later.
Lol, as you are leaving, the shadow of your truck reminded me of Shrek’s head and ears. I know, I have a weird imagination. 😂
Hi D, That's funny😆. I notice the shadow sometimes, but now I'm gonna see Shrek all the time. Thanks for sharing have a great week!
Thanks for the fun travel video. You like the same sort of travel as I do.....small roads thru small towns, stopping at all the interesting abandoned places. I often stop too much too and just make it to my camp spot before dark 😂. LOVED that gas station with the arches....I put it on my "must" see list!
Hi Jane, I am really enjoying getting out and finding these places to share. I often go out and don't know exactly where I am staying for the night, Sometimes it adds a little stress😄. Thanks for sharing and have a great week.
Thanks, Randy, a true hidden Gem.👍
Hi Lloyd, Thank you and have a great week!
Thanks, Randy 👍
I live near the dinosaur McDonald's. I go there a few times a year
Hi Jennifer, I loved exploring this part of Arizona. Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
Monsoon this year has been fantastic. It's Aug 29, 2024 and it has been raining since before July 4th. Should be lots of water now.+
Beautiful picture of Tucson at night.
Beautiful photography, thank you for sharing
Thank you Becky!
Beautiful, I live in Tucson and have only been there once as a young girl, don't really remember it. There's so much to see in Tucson and most of us don't enjoy it.
Hi becky, It is a beautiful place. I'm glad I was able to enjoy it at the right time of year. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful day!
When I was in high school, the Pit closed, and many of the families moved to Sierra Vista. Bisbee started to die, and by the time I went into the Navy it was almost dead. Every time I came home on leave I’d drive to Bisbee, and it was so sad to see it. Only Brewery Gulch was still somewhat functioning. Then the artists and the antiques dealers moved in, and retirees, and they managed to bring it back from the brink. I always get a thrill when I go down to visit, and see the people enjoying it. Definitely try Bisbee Breakfast Club. They’re even in Tucson now. Great food!
Also have a couple of stories about Naco, not fit for sharing. lol.
Hi Carol, it's great to hear the stories from people that lived in these cool places. Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
My dad was raised in Globe (born in Phoenix). Went to Globe High. My grandfather was the manager at the Valley National Bank (now Chase). Dad now lives in Payson, and my brother and I live in Scottsdale where we were born and raised.
Hi Sheri, Glad to meet others that were born in the Phoenix area. That used to be uncommon, but not so much anymore. Payson is a good place to live during the summer.😄 Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week!
That’s Texas Canyon at the rest stop! Lived in the SW Az area most of my life, and still stop here on my way to and fro. Check out the Triangle T, a historic ranch just a skip down the road, with really nice accommodations PLUS a really cool bar and grill on-site. I’ve stayed here before, it’s totally worth it! It’s just beautiful, almost like a western movie set. And great walking among the boulders (great for scenic photography, too 😊).
I grew up in Sierra Vista, and when I was a kid in the late 60s , early 70s, Fairbanks was not like this. I only remember three or four buildings (one BIG one that I’d been told was a mercantile and the large stuccoed building might be it. But there were no extensions to the left) and they were in ruins. For sure I don’t recall the building with the stone work AT ALL, or the building with the barred windows, but I might be wrong. Mostly we stopped there when we were riding our horses to walk up to visit the old cemetery on the hill. It’s still an incredibly peaceful place. They’ve sure done a nice restoration job, especially in making some things look original. Wish I had taken pictures of it back then.
I recommend the book ‘Going back to Bisbee’ by Richard Shelton. He was a professor at the UofA, and taught at the Bisbee public school way, way back. He also taught English at the State Prison where I worked. In the book He talks about the whole Ft.Huachuca/Fairbanks/Hereford/San Pedro/Bisbee area, and throws in fascinating historic facts. He was such a nice man. And it’s one of my favorite books about my home.
Hi Carol, Thank you for sharing that, and the book. They did a really nice job restoring it. I really enjoyed my visit. I would imagine horseback riding thru there would be an enjoyable experience. Thanks again and have a wonderful week!
@@SeabeeTraveler we were kids, without cars, and we rode our horses EVERYWHERE! From Ft.Huachuca, to the San Pedro, Hereford, the Canyons, Tombstone, Fairbanks, Huachuca City, and the Mule Mountains. Can’t even imagine the mileage we put on them. But it was the best childhood ever, to be with friends and be free to ride the whole Valley. BTW, thought I’d mention that I believe I was the first female Seabee, late 1979. It was a clerical error. They thought I was a guy (? Why?) , when I showed up at Personnel everybody’s mouths dropped open. They put me in the Master-at-Arms at ACB2 temporarily (about 5- 6 months) working for Chief Petty Officer Woods until I could be transferred to BMU2. I loved it, ACB2 was awesome and the guys were really nice to me, considering. Loved BMU, too. One of the best times of my life. Saw your tag; SeabeeTraveler, and had to subscribe. Thanks for great content!
Rosie's cantina was a cool hotel
Hi Fuxerz, Thanks for sharing that. Next time I'm there I'll have to check it out. Have a great week!
Texas pretty much has it all, pine trees and swamp on the east side, major cities, big rolling hills and a semi arid environment in the west.... Big Bend area is great for motorcycle riding as well....... This is an enjoyable trip so far.....🤠👍
Hi Kajunguy, The further south I went, the greener the mesquites got and as far as the eye can see. Thanks for sharing and we'll see ya on the next one!
Love your videos
Hi Angie, Thank you and have a wonderful day!
I spent so many vacations in PineTop-Lakeside, that I’d recognize that landscape, anywhere.
Hi rebeccscreasman, I've always had family up there and even lived there for a bit. Pinetop and Quartzsite will always be where most of my favorite memories were growing up. Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
I like all the little off the road sights.
Hi Karen, I didn't use to appreciate those little places and would whiz on by. I've learned to stop and smell the roses a little more often these days. Have a wonderful week and we'll see ya on the next one.
I can hear the song Texas by Chris Rea... thanks for sharing your journey. Truly wonderful. Photographs get an A+ 🌟
Hi Carl, That kinda Texas blues vibe does does fit that area. I appreciate the kind words and thanks for sharing. Have a great week!
I always enjoy trekking thru old building too. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome Zap it's fun to get out and do that sort of thing to share. Have a good one!
Thanks, Randy,cool old White House.👍
Thanks Lloyd! I thought so too. Have a wonderful week!

The wood racks you asked for help were horse Saddle Racks.
Hi Kenny, Thanks for letting me know, that makes much more sense.😄 Thanks again and have a good week!
Doing well. Thank you
Hi Tressinar, Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day.
Those are the "Stations of the Cross" at the Catholic church, that represent Jesus' path on the day he was crucified. I know that from time served as a Catholic before I got paroled.
Hi Unmalo, Thanks for letting me know, It's always nice to get clarification from viewers. Thanks again and have a great week!
👏
Hi Jessie, Thanks, I just caught your video on the Salt River Canyon. Thanks again and have a good day!
You can go into the church. It's very beautiful inside as well
Hi MsShawli, Thank you for letting me know. I will take advantage of that when I get the chance again. Have a wonderful week!
Is it haunted?
Hi Fred, The old jail is supposedly haunted from some of the inmates that died trying to escape. Hope that helps. Thanks for sharing and have a good week!
I live in Globe, about 30 years now. I believe the Teepee use to be part of a bar. Alot of the rod iron around Globe Miami was done by my ex with a bit of my help. I'm glad you did this tour. 😊
Hi Cindy, Wow, 30 years in one place, that's impressive. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful week!
not water fountain, but a place to clean your fish
Hi Faolindaze, Is that what is was for? Thanks for clearing that up. I kinda like that better than a fountain, adds character to the story. Thanks again and have a great day!
Polar Express
Yep, That's the one I was thinking about. Thanks scooter.
Ft Stockton was about 14hrs drive from me on my trips to LA and Vegas. it was right at halfway to LA so I would stop, get gas and dinner then spend the night most times... I never ventured into town though, the truck stop was across the road from the hotel... I'm enjoying this trip.
Hi Kajunguy, I only wish the Fort museum was open then. The timing didn't work out for me on that day. 14 hours of driving isn't as easy as it used to, at least for me.😂 It's been a fun trip for me to share. Have a great day and we'll see ya on the next one!
@@SeabeeTraveler I always had a bad habit of waiting to the last minute before leaving to come home.... I would have to fly like the wind to make it back to work in time sometimes..😂 See you on the next video
