Back in the 70's my grandparents lived in Winthrop, I so loathed and hated that drive form Port Angeles Washington. I'd give anything to now do it again, I miss them so much!
It was a far better before a commercialized western theme town. I feel lucky to have experienced it before the north cascade highway and the population explosion. It used to be awesome there!!!
My grandparents lived in Twisp. June and Harrison streets are named for them. I remember sitting on their front steps and watching the smoke jumper planes flying by to fires.
Thank you for the tour! I made the mistake of visiting there during the summer. It was SO hot. Made walking about miserable. But it is a very sweet and lovely town. I was surprised to see it looking so good! I thought there was a bad fire out there a while ago. Thank you for all the adventures your provide to us! You are both awesome!

Thank you for the nice comment, we love to hear from our viewers. It does get hot and busy there in the summer for sure. We were lucky to get such nice weather this early in the year. I didn’t see any evidence of fire around the town, so not really sure how close they were. Looking forward to sharing more adventures with everyone.
To me the town has changed, there use to be a guy that called himself Lep (short for Leprechaun) He looked like one and he owned a brewery, great beer. Three Fingers Jack use to be a bit wild had some wild times there but it got bought out and was changed to a mostly a restaurant family friendly no more wild parties.
The town is a western theme town..one of two eastern cascades towns.. That are theme towns. The other one is Leavenworth which is a Bavarian theme town..☺️👍
i wish you'd panned into some of the stores, into the bank, into anything but the straight sidewalk view of things you were talking about. i kept getting cool glimpses of buildings out of the corner of my eye but you wouldn't pan over to them. not sure why. perhaps in the future you could take that into consideration.
Pretty fair assessment of our town. By the way, Methow is pronounced Met.. how, not Methow. North Cascade is the most beautiful pass in the state with the White pass highway a very close second. Be safe in your travels and God Bless 🙏🙏.

I'll bet it was quite a town to visit back in the day! Thanks for sharing.
@@seeking70degreesoh no that’s
It reminds me of Knotts BerryFarm/Disney. Not appealing. Sorry for the residents.

That was a nice quick trip Through the town and back, but you really didn't show us much. Not even the inside of a single building.
Cute town! Reminds me of where I live, in Sisters, Or!
You live in a beautiful area.
@ thx
awesome
Thank you
2/3rds of Washington, to the east is dry.
It's pronounced MET-HOW

Pronounced MET-How, the h is silent.
unremarkable place really...pretty cheesy
your basic "tourist trap"
Hi, I'm a local and just wanted to inform you that the pronunciation of Methow is Met-how, not Meth-ow. Now ya know. 😊
@emilymcd1977 Thanks for the info on the correct pronunciation!
