    There are so many places along the Great River Road that you haven't been, with loads of history and some beautiful views (especially in the fall). You should do this one for sure.

    Growing up in New Orleans, I loved going to the Musee Conti! I remember the commercial for it that ran on TV! If memory serves, The Phantom of the Opera seemed to be modeled after Jimmy Cagney as Lon Chaney Sr. In the biopic THE MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES, which was also featured on the box art of the classic Phantom model kit by Aurora.

    Another great video, thank you for making us feel like we were right there with you! I love wax museums, the more old school the better! 😉🤩
    Here in Iowa, there is a very nice Mississippi River Museum located in Dubuque. It highlights all the different sections of the Mississippi River, through aquariums, displays and exhibits. I found it so interesting how diverse the ecosystem of the River was depending on which section you were. If you haven't visited it, I think it would be worth your time! 😊 if you make it up this way, there is also the University of Iowa Natural History Museum, not too far from Dubuque, in Iowa City. It is the second oldest museum west of the Mississippi and is home to the century old Laysan Island Cyclorama display.

    Love your museum tours they are so great! Ok, my question: Did you do a U-Turn and head back Northwest to Tulsa since Casa Bonita Re-opened. I so hope so because with its history and how long it took to re-opened, I would do the carpetbagger boot scootin boogie and go!!! Keep up the great work!!

    Speaking of civil war surgeries. There’s a story that my great great grandfather was in the union army in Sherman’s March and his foot got injured. They were going to amputate his foot but he pointed a gun at the doctor and refused to let him amputate the foot. He lived to old age with a lame foot, but a foot nonetheless! (It’s lucky he didn’t get an infection honestly or I might not be here today!)

    I think around when the museum closed, some of the figures were acquired by a company that's been trying to get the Six Flags property-that obviously hasn't happened

    I had no idea about this either, so happy to see the Musée Conti reborn!! Great find, and props to the Great River Road Museum!
    I have been hoping the National Steinbeck Museum got a hold of the Steinbeck’s Spirit of Monterey Wax Museum figures and can similarly incorporate them.

    • @TheCarpetbagger

      My family is from NO. I’m a Landry. Lots of Landry’s there. My uncle worked in a haunted hotel in the French Quarter, and I got to stay in one of the rooms. Very spooky. This was back in the 80s. It’s a much different place now than it was then.

    I would love to see you on a Great River Road trip. Probably best to do it in late spring or early fall. Going all the way down the Mississippi has been a bucket list item of mine since I was a kid , probably due to the fact I read Tom Sawyer at a very impressionable age.

    Interesting to learn more about the history of what a "carpetbagger" is. If I remember, I think one of the bad guys used the term "carpetbagger" as an insult in the Jack Reacher show as well.

    • @Themeparkhero
      @Themeparkhero Год назад +1

      It kinda is a negative slang that jacob adopted in a better way. The og carpetbaggers moved from the north to the south after the civil war to sell people stuff out of their carpet bags and take advantage, so they say, of the people who lost everything in the war.
