Welcome to Wonderhussy Adventure #361
If you've ever sat in the Tecopa natural hot spring and looked up at the mountains to the east, you may have noticed a little splotch of green about halfway up that barren expanse. This is Chappo Spring, a very remote desert homestead with some really cool old cars, and a pretty substantial oasis! Who lived here? Let's try to figure it out!

Dodge truck, Plymouth fury , 57 Chevy , Plymouth station wagon

@SteveTheFordGuy985 4 года назад

The yellow truck looks like a Dodge 1950s. The first Black car is a 1960 Plymouth Fury, second blue and white car with bullet holes is a 1957 Chevrolet Bel-air 4 door, the third car is a white 1957 Plymouth staton-wagon. such cool cars. Thank you, Sara.

@angeloangelojoseph1494 3 года назад

A Paiute woman named Juanita Weed lived on the property in the 1970s. Her daughter Delores Simmons was a neighbor of mine in Moapa. Sadly, she passed away recently. Another daughter, Marie Wilson still lives in Pahrump. Thanks for the Adventures SJ.

Chappo Springs was a training area used by the USMC in the 1960s. There is two old mines located west of the springs. There is also an old cemetery (dating back to 1860s) in the hills.

Indeed. Maybe we can chip in and get Larry a trash pick up tool. An old board/rod from that old shack (assuming it ain't a "historical site") and a rusty nail might work, but then again splinters and lock-jaw ain't no joke; ok back to the fancy tool.

Would you believe.. when I was a kid 9 yrs of age my parents took me on a trip to Canada in the family Plymouth station wagon. We slept in the car and I still recall sleeping on the front seat. Many years later, my parents purchased a GMC Motorhome w/all the conveniences incl TV, AC, shower, kitchen.. big difference!

Hey everybody!, we all love Sarah Jane because she loves exploring the places that we love to see and and hear about.! This is very dear to my heart because I love mountains Canyons desert ghost towns mines and beautiful wilderness and so does Larry. And they have been very nice to share all of this with us. Even me a broke ass laborer living on my sailboat on the Oakland Waterfront who goes out to the mountains and the rivers whenever I can want to support the patreon effort for her medical bills but I don't even hold a charge card or a bank account. Hopefully others can find it in their heart to do so because we don't want to lose wonderhussy Adventures beautiful endeavors!

When I was 15 years old in 1983 my mate Eric and I used to go up to Chappo springs and stayed there with a couple called Triva and Ronnie it was a great adventure spent many weeks in the summer up there. is the two seater outhouse still there behind the building? is the bathtub that the spring runs through still there? that fridge was the fridge we used in the house, it ran off of propane, lit the place with kerosene lamps and was quite well set up, in a hippy kinda way
