    Randy, What a nice way for you and Kayla to spend a peaceful afternoon. I enjoyed the overview by the ranger at the beginning. THANK YOU FOR TAKING US TO THE POND, . . . Mike

    I think both of you actually do have artistic abilities. My house wouldn't even come close to that.

    The only national unit dedicated to painting. That is interesting! The grounds beautiful and peaceful so I could see how you would be able to pump out tons of paintings from there. I liked the Buffalo paintings those we're cool.

      After watching the video footage I took (back in May - lol!) it did remind me how peaceful that place way. It was a fun day!

    Love it! Brings back the memories when we went through the same area! So beautiful and relaxing there unlike much of the surrounding traffic ridden area lol. We lived just down the road from there for about 3 years. :) Thanks for sharing! - Shane

      Cool, Shane! This was the trip back in May that we planned at the last minute. Think I gave you a "heads-up" knowing you were in the area, but you already had plans. Crazy it took me 8 months to get this video rolling! Have a great weekend!

    Uh oh. Drone crash?? Looks like a beautiful farm. I’m impressed with your touchdown blitz series. You are really knocking these videos out! Enjoy the super bowl today!! 🏈

      @AmericasParks  5 лет назад

      Yeah, didn't leave much to the imagination! :) There are some other funny details with the story as well! Only 1 video left in the Blitz - so thankful! This one video/day was killing me. Hope you are having a great Sunday!

    Do you remember how long that walk to the lake is? I'm looking to stop by during a road trip and I know the fam wont be up for a walk longer than 15-20 minutes each way.

      Hey Ismael, from what I can recall it was short. Nice wooded trail you should be able to complete well-within your time frame. Enjoy!

    I confess I know (nothing) about painting's. But in my opinion (Killer's} drawing is the winner.

    how "weird" would it have been if Mr. Weir never made a mistake, only happy little accidents?

      I think 9 out of 10 judges would agree with you! Artistry is definitely not my area of giftedness... Have a great weekend!
