    Hey, glad you enjoyed "Our Town". We keep our sailboat here and go by the sub dozens of times each summer. Scout troupes had been able to sleep on sub (I did it with all three of my sons.) Too bad you didn't see the Lake Express ferry go by. Muskegon is so much better than it was decades ago and is still getting better and better. We were in the sailboat that you taped in Pentwater after this video. See my comment there.

    My Grandpa was in the Navy and fought in WWII. After that he was stationed all over the United States and my mom moved around alot because of it. In the 1960's he became head of the coast guard in Muskegon. My mom met my dad in Muskegon, and here I still live. I'm almost 53 years old.

    Great video! Both Lights in Muskegon ( owned by Michigan Lighthouse Conservancy) are accessible for an up close look! Walk to outer Light (Muskegon South Breakwater Light) is on the break wall, almost a mile walk out. Inner Light (Muskegon South Pierhead Light) has a public walk way through NOAA property, tours of this Light are Friday, Saturday and Monday from 1 to 5PM (till Labor Day 2021).

    I'm way late here but if your ever back in the area Muskegon State Park has been my family's favorite part to camp at for a few generations now, you get wooded campsites just over the dunes from the lake and a really nice beach. The reservations fill up the instant they become available 6 months in advance but I believe all state campgrounds reserve 20% on sites for first come, first serve.
    If you're ever making a trip to Michigan and want to stay at certain state campgrounds in the prime season you pretty much have to make your reservations 6 months to the day in advance.

    I'm not complaining. I enjoy the areas that you visit and the fact that you're sharing them with those who can't. I wish that you would research the sites that you visit so you could share the information with us. Quite often, you share your thoughts and ideas, but so many times it seems that you're guessing without knowing the facts. Thanks for your videos.

      Yes I feel he sometimes is always “on to the next thing”, rushing through what is right in front of him. He tore through that museum lol. He’s a great guy though and I really appreciate his personality and vibe. Seems like a great person to be around...It’s just quality not quantity for me when seeing places. I guess we all have our preferences.

    I read somewhere that in WWII a torpedo cost $10,000. Which is about $175,000 today. At the start of the war they tested two of them on an old ship that was going to be scrapped. One went under it and was lost. The other hit it. They didn't test any more, because they were so expensive. So US Navy submariners went out across the Pacific to fight the Japanese with torpedoes that had tested 50% effective. They did a pretty good job, considering!

      I heard that the USS Silversides was the first submarine to reach Pearl Harbor after it was bombed in December 1941. Is that true??

    • @BlazingLaser
      @BlazingLaser 2 месяца назад

      According to Wikipedia, the Silversides first arrived at Pearl Harbor in June of 1942. It doesn't mention if other subs were there. But being the first submarine 6 months after the attack wouldn't count for much, would it?

    • @LeeLLewis

    A little late in the conversation, but as a man born and raised in Muskegon Michigan, the great lakes are the only lakes that start with "Lake" .... All others start with their respective names. Such as Muskegon Lake, not lake Muskegon. Just a little humorous michgander insight. ❤

    Muskegon is A DUMP!!!!!!!! I have lived here for over 30 years. Its Muskegon Lake. I live 2 miles from Pere Marquette. I haven't been there in over a decade. I hate this state. Up by the bridge is pretty. Everything south of Ludington is garbage. Nothing to do. No good restaurants. No entertainment.
