Camped by Historic Cattle Ranch 

A rare living history museum where you can touch everything but are trusted to put it back. There is hope for humankind 😊

Glad you FINALLY got Hobbs his own outdoor bed so HE can be comfortable too!!!❤️🐕❤️

Congrats on 100k Brian! It’s been a long, amazing journey. God Bless and safe travels.

So rare to see a place that old frozen in time. Felt like I went on a time travel. Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

Hobbes is really cute! 😊

Really interesting tour! And beautiful campsite. I catch myself taking a deep breath when that magnificent oak tree is in view. Thanks Brian.

Thanks for taking us along to this historic ranch. I love that there's still so many antiques around and that people seem to respect the history there.

Great video and great place. Thanks for sharing your tour of the ranch. Awesome to see the items being left alone and no vandalism. A view into the past of a hearty breed of people who were born to the land.

Hobbs is so darn cute 🥰. I love that spot, perfect. Enjoy it, it'll be getting hot there soon. 😊 Hugs to you and all who prayed for my daughter. She's getting a little better. Bless you all!

Nice tour brian, didnt think you were almost 50.! Life goes fast, turning 63 soon.

Brian! We were just there this past Fall. Such a rich nugget of western history.loved the ranch house. So much furniture reminded me of my husband's and my grandparents heritage. When my Nan got tired of treadling the sewing machine, I was sat under to do it by hand. There are nuggets all over the area if you get out and drive. One just trips over them. A young teen shot his first deer the day we were there. Special state hunting day for first timers. Was a family & friends long week. Great for pics. Thanks for the memories. We're from SW Alabama.

Thank you Brian. What an amazing building! And yes, the antiques, so great to see them all kept there, where they should be. What memories those rooms all hold. There is very little grass there near your campsite for those cattle, so thank goodness for those low hanging branches for them. The calves would be really loving those. Hobbs has become a real country bumpkin now, hasn't he? 😊 One happy pooch.. Hi to Kelly.. ⭐⭐⭐ 🌞 🕊 🙋🏼‍♀️ 🚐 🌏

Love the ranch house tour! My mom had the same Hamilton Beach mixer, and used it to mix cake batters. The Kitchen Aid metal cabinetry is so well preserved. I remember seeing those in the kitchens back then. It's impressive that the ranch site has been respected by visitors, enabling others to appreciate it.

Thank you this has been so very interesting thank you for sharing❤😅

Hi Brian, wow that oak tree was massive! What a great exploration I really enjoyed this ride. One of my favorites keep em coming be safe and safe travels 🦅✌🏼

Thank you for the tour! My Grandma had a treadle Singer sewing machine similar to the one in the house. I’m sure she had many similar kitchen items as well. What a great exhibit of the past.

Awesome tour! Thanks! Love Hobbes' new bed.👍😎🇨🇦🐾

I absolutely LOVE Hobbs! He did not want Wiley to leave as he loved him and he let you know. I have one of those at home too. ❤😊

Those Tinker Toys brought back memories for me! What a cool place!

What a coincidence, I just read a book about the Old West and it mentioned the Empire Ranch. Thanks for showing it to us.

Thank you Brian, I so enjoyed the motorcycle ride & tour of the ranch. So much history, very interesting & informative. Trying to picture what it must have been like to live there. Very cool. Love the way Hobbs just owns that new bed.🥰🥰🥰✌️Happy camping.

You are right about that conical container in the Hoosier being for grain: it’s a flour sifter.

That was a fascinating look back in history. I love touring places like this!

Thanks for the historical adventure, I enjoyed seeing the the ranch very much. Also, I love your campsite with the beautiful oak trees.

Wow, Brian, that Ranch house is amazing 🤩 Thank you for the tour!

I love walking through historical buildings, school houses, and homes. I'm watching a YT channel called "Bloom" where a single mother builds her adobe home, very interesting. Thank you for sharing. 🙋‍♀

The house we moved into in the early 70's (still here) was built in 1953. Our metal sink unit (original) was exactly like the one you saw, but had a single sink with drain boards on either side. When we redid the kitchen we had a cabinet maker recreate it in wood and found an outfit in FL that recreates period sinks. It looks exactly like the original.

👍Thanks for a very interesting tour, and the wild life at the end! Those massive oaks are beautiful at your campsite. Be safe. ☮

Thank you Brian, absolutely loved the tour.

Have that sewing machine. It was my great grandmothers! Cheers Brian!

I think The Cheney Human Voice record player was the biggest find. They were big in the Roaring 20's. I really enjoyed this video.

That shot of Hobbs with his ears flopping. ❤❤❤

Nice tour, as a kid I had similar toys. Especially the wood blocks and the building set underneath with the hub/spoke construction. I grew up with rotary phone and some of my family had 'party' lines so 2-4families shared the same phone lines. Love exploring old buildings and as a kid we would wander around abandoned homes, probably with loads of asbestos and mold, but exploring was all we cared about. Every time you ride your motorcycle, I feel the urge to buy one :)

Great video Brian. Up until I was 9 1/2 years old in 1972, I grew up on a farm built in the 1700s. It was a 2 story log home with a stone foundation basement and an attic. Slat and plaster walls, a lost art, covered the logs. Behind the walls the insulation was various material and some of it was newspaper. The headline on one of the newspapers was the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. We had those old style door knobs on all the doors and many of the old appliances you showed. The chimney morter was mud and horse hair. This ranch house in your video brought back so many fond memories.

Thanks for the tour of the historic ranch house👍

Wow Brian! That place was amazing, so well preserved. You find the coolest stuff ☮️

Hey Brian, thank you so much for taking us along on your day and your exploration of the Adobe home. Just an fyi, the item you found in the kitchen actually would hold flour the mechanism that was underneath it would actually be attached to the bottom and as you turned it the flour would come out and be dispensed when it was needed. My mother grew up on a farm with over 80 acres of land and no electric, so very familiar with a lot of the items that you showed to us. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Safe travels to the three of you. Hobbs loves his new bed

Fantastic tour...I loved it! Love the videos with Hobbs, too...loving his new bed and walking with "pep" in his step...ears flapping! You are SUCH a kind person(and you do NOT look 50 y/o). I thought you were in your early 30's...no kidding.

Thank you find our amazing and I agree with you. I am so surprised in this day and age that nobody ruined that area. It is beautiful to see that nobody has.

What a treat to visit a historical site. Thanks for taking us along. I could imagine hearing the cattle bellowing and the ranchers working. Cool!😅

That flour sifter has a window in it to know when to refill it. Mom has one especially useful for cakes pastries waffles😄thanks for sharing

Excellent video my friend. Great job filming. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day. Coming at ya from Kansas City, MO.

HEY! Hello Brian , Kelly and Hobbs! YAY! 100,000 Subs!!!

GREAT video, Brian ..... That Avocado green bread box brought back a few memories for me ... Grand parents had one just like it !! 🙂👍 "Thanks" for sharing it .....

Thanks for the tour of the Empire Ranch! That was really cool!

Empire ranch! Lovely historic place! My grandpa lived in Bisbee after he and my grandma divorced in the 1940’s and my dad lived with his dad from then and thru the 1950’s, when he moved back to California where he met my mom. My dad loved that whole area and showed it to us kids many many times growing up! Patagonia, Sonoita and Elgin were all places my grandpa worked. I met a Boice family member but can’t remember his first name, he was a friend of my grandpa. He lived there in the ranch. It was still pretty active in the 1960’s. I probably have some old photos of that place! 😊 ~ Janine

The best moments to me are Hobbs and the cooking.😊 Looks like Hobbs has his do not disturb sign out.

Thanks Brian so enjoyed the ranch tour. God bless

When I was a kid in the early 60’s there were still people using Ice Boxes and I remember going to the place in town where they made the blocks of Ice and were sliding them out the side door to costumers.

Hobbs is too darn cute

Enjoyed the tour of the ranch. Very neat piece of history. Beautiful big tree, and area. You really find nice spots. Safe travels to Wiley. 🙂👍

I really love your channel Brian...been following you since the very beginning in San Diego...U keep it real...U and Kelly make a great couple. Rock on....

Did you notice the antique Tinker Toys in the children's room? Super cool. My family still used an ice box in the mid fifties. Yes, I recall the Ice man making deliveries or we would go with my dad to the ice house. My siblings and I took turns catching the block of ice coming down the shoot.

That was a really nice tour. Thank you.

Wow, thank you, Brian. I did not get a chance to see that this year when I was out in Arizona. I guess I will just have to come back... I noticeda lot of 1950s stuff, which remember because that was what was at the grandparents places. We also had a lot of thrift store and garage sale items in our house. Nice video. Thank you for taking us along..

That Iron that had the little tank and you said is that a blow torch? LOL... That is a steam pot. You open it and put water in there and as you are heating the iron on the stove top, it heats the water and you open that little knob valve in back and it lets the steam out.

Brian, I'm a long time subscriber, thank you SO MUCH for this video. For anyone whose parents are still with us, show them this video. Trust me on this. Mom says the cabinet at 12:02 is called a "Hoosier Cabinet" and the container at the top with the funnel at the bottom was for flour. Basically if you were making biscuits every morning for a bunch of ranch hands you needed plenty of flour in a easy to access place. She said there would be other containers for salt, etc nearby as well. There would also be a place for storing what we now call cookie sheets, but she didn't know if there was a icebox originally there, but thought the cookie sheets would be stored vertically in the bottom cabinet. I can't cook (much), so I'm just going off of what she said. Yes, my family was orginally from Oklohoma, we are OG Okies. New Mexico is home now though. While all of these items are antiques, I'm in my early 50's and have seen many of these things still in use today. Again, thank you so much for this wonderful video, we really enjoyed it. And when your parents are buying a new TV, have them buy the BIG one, with full 4k for THIS KIND OF CONTENT. It makes a huge difference. Be well folks!

I look forward to watching your show every week. Thanks.

Another amazing video Brian! Congrats with 100k!

What a cool cattle ranch. Well done Brian.

Brian this place is AWESOME !! Thank you for taking us along

That cabinet in the old kitchen is a Hoosier, a free-standing baking center first made popular at the end of the 19th century in Indiana.

Hey Brian what a very cool ranch and thank you for taking us with .I stop what i am doing stuff the sec i see a video from you ,you Rock ,Big hugs from MN

Excellent!👍🏻

Hello From Kentucky Just wanted to let you know we look forward to your newest videos coming online , I love the environment you camp in and taking the easy laid back approach to the challenges of being full time , I’m glad Hobbs has adjusted so well and that Kelly is doing well also , we think a lot of your videos and wish you the best were headed west here soon going to a few places you’ve gone because you made it look so enjoyable, well take care ,

Hobbs strolling seems out of a cartoon movie. Funny dog.

👍👍 Thanks Brian and God bless ✌️

Love the tour. Great to see this bit of history preserved.

I think in the old days they were made of 4x8x16 adobes, 2 walls with air space, tied with a length wise adobe every so often. That way intruders found it harder to breach or burn down and made them super comfy in both seasons.

Thanks for another great video. So neat to see the old stuff. One of the old things I have and still use is a Snap On ratchet from my Grandpa. It has to be at least sixty years old that I know of and can easily much older. It is black and I showed it to a Snap On guy and he had never heard of this. He asked his fellow Snap On guys and no one had ever heard of this. They wanted to buy it but I said no way. I also have a bunch of sockets that look like it could have been part of a set. 100K!!!

Thank you for the video 😊

Super interesting tour of the old ranch. It is so fun imagining people living and working there. Thanks.

Lots of history. Loved that huge oak tree. Another great video. Thanks for sharing all this Enjoy your day 🤗

Wow, humongous oaks, adobe ranch dwellings, and fitting music to such a wonderful video. Thanks

Thanks for the great tour! Love the giant tree!

This was so interesting and enjoyable Brian, thanks for taking us along. Love that huge oak tree too, what a great playground for kids it would be, of all ages. 🙂🙃

Bet Kelly is loving her new window!!! 🎉💝 And I loved the vid, Brian 👍.. and Hobbs bouncing ears! 😁💙

This has been a walk down memory lane. I grew up on a farm where so many of those items were in use when I was a child. One of the things I noted in the early section of the house was the single pane glass in the tall double hung windows. Where I lived it was cold and the drafts that passed around those window frames kept us close to the fireplaces about 10 months of the year.

That was great! Thanks for bringing us along 😊

The ranch was amazing to see. Thanks for sharing it with us. I love that kind of stuff! Great camping spot. Enjoy! ☮️❤️☀️

Relaxing Friday evening viewing 👍

I own a building in cold spring harbor NY that was built around 1850, Cold spring Harbor was a whaling town and when we did some repairs on the building we found beams that were from old whaling ships that had been scraped, they never threw out anything back then, I guess that was recycling.

Nice to see your friend visit. The old ranch was nice to see with lots of antiques. People way back had to live a different life.

Thanks for a very interesting tour. Lot's of history there for sure. Have a great day Kelly ,Brian ,and Hobbs.Louise

I love seeing how folks lived out here in the SW years ago. Even though it rained more then, it still had to have been difficult - hauling water, oil lamps (the oil had to be shipped in or bought at a nearby town) These folks would have had meat to eat and sell, but probably had a veggie garden too and purchased their oats and flour, sugar, fabric from nearby towns that had stores. Hand sewn clothing, mending, knitting, and so on. Someone had to make things from the leather for saddles and coats, hats, boots and such - even aprons for the blacksmith. Fascinating and admirable.

Fun! Thanks for taking us along. Btw, Hobbes seems soo happy :)

Neat to see ALL that stuff made in the USA.

Thank you. Fascinating trip into history.

I hope you have picked you out a good place to put your 100,000 subscribers plaque. Congratulations. 🎉

That was fun! So cool to see this ranch, nice walking tour. Hi Hobbs and Kelly! ✌️❤️🚐

Thank you!

Enjoyed this tour. Love doing these things when it's not busy and u can take your time.

Thanks for the great tour Brian. I love seeing historical places like this. Sort of makes me feel old though because many of those items in the ranch house were the same as what my grandparents had. I still have so many of their smaller items like the antique toys and kitchen items. We actually played with wooden Tinker Toys when I was a kid. Must have been some very hard working people! Loved seeing Hobbs' new bed! Dogs just love comfy beds and cozy blankets. 1 me happy to see him having such a great senior retirement!

Thanks for the tour, Brian. Keep up the great video work. All the best to you and Kelly. 😊

Awesome tour of the ranch, great video, felt like I was there for a minute. Thanks for sharing, and away we go.

Great video brother

I'm parked at the next tree down the road. Looks like you got the best spot in the area!

That is a beautiful ranch. I remember going through it last yea. Beautiful area. Thank you for the tour.

That ranch tour was so cool thanks!! 👍👍👍

Thanks for the ride-along! ✌
