New Zealand Family React to 7 Outdoor Objects I Never Saw Before Moving to America -THIS GOT STRANGE 

The "mesh" fences are called "chainlink" fences.

The color "School Bus Yellow" was created at a conference in 1939. Atendees at the conference included paint experts from DuPont and Pittsburgh Paints. The color was chosen because it attracts attention and is noticed quickly in peripheral vision.

My cousin came to visit from Austria a few years ago and I was so surprised how excited she became when a yellow school bus drive by. She was able to get her camera and take a few pictures which made her very happy. :D Just like the video stated, she thought the yellow school buses were a myth until seeing one, ha ha!

By the way, a “garden” is where you grow vegetables. The rest of your lot is either the back yard or the front yard. 😊 This is pretty funny.

One of the reasons for the water towers to have the city name on it was because of crop dusters in the 30's, 40's etc. They used the water towers to identify what town they were in.

HEADS UP ON SCHOOL BUSSES ... when lights on top of the bus are flashing, the bus is picking up or discharging students. In most cases, you must stop for a school bus whenever the driver signals a stop with the flashing lights and the stop sign. Some laws vary by state, such as whether or not you're required to stop when there is a median separating your lane of traffic from the bus; so, be mindful. But, you may NEVER pass a stopped school bus that has flashing lights and the stop sign is out. (Y'all may have already known this; but, just in case.) I'm looking forward to watching the posts of your travels here!

Also, he says that picket fences and “mesh” (chain link) fences are found around “gardens.” In America, they’re called “yards” (he does mention the word “yard” when describing mailboxes). You have the front yard in front of the house and the back yard behind the house. In America, a “garden” is an area within the yard where flowers, herbs, fruits, and/or vegetables are grown.

it’s not just the American flag, you’ll commonly see flags for various sports teams, or flags that represent the seasons, or even personalized flags with family’s names on them 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Mesh fence is commonly called a "chain link " fence.

Canadian here - we also have many of those American things all over Canada as well - steel water towers with town names on them, mesh fences, hiway billboards, fire hydrants (red ones and yellow ones) and speaking of yellow, all our school buses are yellow as well - even though the company that manufactures them is ironically named Blue Bird.

What a charming family. It's so refreshing to see fun stuff without vulgarity. Also, as an American, I so enjoy listening to people with melodic accents talk about things that are quintessentially American. The opinions are eye opening. Also, New Zealand, Australian, British, and other accents sound so soothing to my ear. Love it 😂❤

Flags got major after 9/11. I was on deployment in Australia when it happened and you'd see some before I left the States. But when I finally got back to the US after 8 months even I was surprised by how many more flags there were everywhere. It's been pretty steady even decades later.

You'll definitely will see a lot of American flags and also state flags fling sense all of the kids are back in school and we Americans are very proud of our flag and country

US has lots of water towers because we use water pressure via gravity to disperse water to lots of the population. Potable water is pumped into the reservoir on top of the tank and gravity distributes it down into people’s homes.

School busses are usually because the school is too far to walk. My Highschool was over 20 miles (32 km) away and it took the bus over an hour to get to it. Which was why it was common for morning drives to be silent. All of us kids would put our backpacks on our laps and plant our faces in them for an hour extra nap before class.

The thing about our flag, and our patriotism, is that we recognize how absolutely unique it is to have joined people from every country, culture and corner of the Earth into ONE place, and have it be peaceful amongst us. We have our problems, but we are not, and have not been for almost 160 years, at war with each other. It's the great human experiment, and it's WORKING. We're proud of that. And we know how lucky we are. (Please don't let the news or Hollywood form your opinion of we Americans. They are less than 1% of the 320,000,000 of us.)

I hope this inspires you all to write down a list of unusual things you encounter on your travels through our "fruited plains from sea to shining sea". Please don't gorge yourselves on food while you're here. We want y'all to have a wonderful trip without any illness nor injuries. Safe travels! We love y'all!

We are anxious to show you our hospitality during your stay. I hope you enjoy every cram-packed minute of your visit! Cheers....

Edit: It has been pointed out that this information is not correct for busses currently in use or in many years. My information was based on training from my younger days and I should have verified whether or not it was still true before commenting. Thank you to those who provided the corrections. When you see the yellow school busses in America you may notice they have three black stripes on the sides. Those aren't just for decoration or reinforcing the sides. They provide valuable information for emergency services in the unfortunate case they need to cut into the bus to rescue children after a crash. The bottom stripe indicates the level of the floor inside the bus. The middle stripe indicates the level of the seat bottoms and the top stripe indicates the level of the top of the seat backrests. That way if the top of the bus is crushed down and they can't see inside they know where children may be trapped in their seat and can determine where to safely cut in order to rescue them.

It's funny he mentions water towers. I moved to a community in NH a few years back and we are on a huge hill where there is a water tower. They just replaced it last year and it took them 8 months to complete the project, this thing is huge. It's all metal and more like a very, very, large oil tank but for water of course.

Lawrence is always fun to watch. Discovered his channel a couple years ago. It's interesting to see the differences. Things we think are normal like, closets and garbage disposals, and assume they are everywhere.

Hello from Arizona. We are heading to New Zealand for 3 months this Nov-Jan, and are very excited to see your wonderful country. Our kiddo asked, "How do NZ kids get to school?" Now we homeschool, so we walk down the stairs. Best wishes on your upcoming adventure as well.

I Love watching Laurence, he has so much info to share! The American Flag has been a part of my life for 60 years, and it saddens me to see so many people disrespect it.

He is hilarious, I love listening to his channel. Many of these things he mentioned we Americans take for granted.

Guess we just find these things normal. It's cool to hear and see what others call them. Hope you enjoy your stay here. Try as many foods as you possibly can. Can't wait to hear your take on them. Lol.

Much of Lawrence's experiences are in portions of the US that are relatively flat - thus tall (usually) steel water towers are very common - in areas with larger amounts of elevation change, they are not very common.

The location of mailboxes varies. In some neighborhoods, the box is attached to the wall, right next to the front door. The mailbox at my current house is like this, but the house I lived in before has the box next to the end of the driveway like Lawrence described. And for a third variation, I also lived in a house that had a mail slot, though we never used it and just had a mailbox sitting on the front porch instead.

Hydrants come in various colors and shapes, also. I've seen neon geen ones, too. I've also seen the types that are built into buildings that function similar to the free-standing ones.

Hope you guys had a safe flight!

In Texas, Oklahoma and much of the south, generally in small towns, water towers will have the high school football mascot on them. Some will even have the years of the state championship wins.

If you look closely, at the school buses, you'll notice they have three wide horizontal stripes on the side. This is for first responders, in the event of an accident. The lower stripe is level with the "floor" of the bus. The middle stripe indicates the seat height. The top stripe indicates the top of the seat back.

I love Lawrence's dead-pan humor! I've been watching him for a couple of years now - always good for a chuckle. But he's spot on!

Welcome to the States!!!!! Enjoy your stay

I've driven by that Elkhart water tower countless times... and I agree with another comment about missing out on so much rural America has to offer by only visiting big cities and urban areas. If you can fit it into your itinerary while in Texas I recommend seeing if any small middle of nowhere towns are having any festivals or fairs. From my experience ones with a food theme are usually the best.

Older neighborhoods still have letter boxes. Some suburban or rural areas have community mail boxes. These boxes are typically at the furthest end of a community so the mailman stops once and fills each of the keyed boxes. Other areas do have the postal worker walk up to the house and drop mail into the front door letter slot or a metal lidded box.

*❤️Only God knows how much grateful i am. After so much struggles I now own a new house and my family is happy once again everything is finally falling into place!!*

By the way, a different color fire hydrants mean flow rate or gallons per minute red is 500 and the blue tops are 1500+ so the colors of hydrants means something .

I'm new to your channel and binged watched several of your videos. What a Lovely Family you have. I enjoy watching Off the Pond videos he's so funny. Please keep the videos coming. Love From Michigan and it's a beautiful, warm evening.

9:11 As an American (Puerto Rican) living in the south, I’m laughing extra hard at this one! Yes, they are everywhere and on pretty much every thing. Also, sports flags, organization flags and basically any flag. I guess the majority of us just love flags. 😅😂😂 🇵🇷 🇺🇸

Laurence is a joy to watch. Very funny outlook on the differences between the US and the UK.

I would honestly love to live in New Zealand. From what I hear and see it's a beautiful place and the people are as well. I mean, I believe you guys are a testament to that. You are just so real and genuine. I can tell, I will always be a subscriber and fan, as long as you guys have the channel. God bless! 🙂

Have an amazing & safe trip!! Cant wait for all the content❤️

Speaking of the flag. Several are up throughout my new neighborhood. I have mine but I haven't installed the bracket yet on the new house for the flagpole. Depending where you go on your visit here, you may only count up several dozen or you may give up after counting several hundred. 🙂 🇺🇸 UPDATE: The bracket was mounted about a week ago at this point (mid-October). I put the flag out in the morning and bring it back in at sunset when I am in residence.

Californian here, and we mostly have water tanks like you are describing. There are some towns in the central valley that have water towers because the land is flat. I think the water tower thing is mostly common in areas that aren't hilly. The water is stored (like in the tanks on hills) above the town's elevation so gravity can assist in creating the water pressure in an emergency where there may be no electrical power and therefore no working water pumps. They are often used to store water for emergency firefighting efforts and connected to the fire hydrant system.

Loved this video, it was such an odd list 😂 but very accurate, those things are everywhere. It's fun seeing reactions from objects that are so commonplace for me, and vise-versa when it happens to me and I'm saying "wait- what was that?"

I love your family so much.. I look forward to watching your videos every week!!!!

I have always enjoyed innovation, which is why I fell in love with digital currencies; ever since I was able to put Andrew Glenn Adams' advice into reality, trading has been successful for me. My original investment has increased significantly. Trading a little portion of your portfolio is preferable to trying to time the market by constantly entering and quitting the market. There are certainly many opportunities in the financial markets, but I've learned enough over the years to be wary of the notion. It's important to know where to focus, and it for would be beneficial to determine whether Mr. Adams can genuinely be of use.

The mesh fences are referred to as chain link fences or hurricane fences. It allows for strong winds to pass through as opposed to the taller wooden fencing that can be knocked down fairly easily during storms.

So funny! I am in the water industry, my husband built water towers for 35 years. Now we inspect, repair and consult.

Water tanks are in our farmland states. You won’t see them in Los Angeles as we have what they call basins, which are basically huge cement lakes that are for water use or Hyperion plants which basically filter the water so we can use it. Mailboxes as he mentioned used to be like that in more rural areas so the mailman can just drive instead of walk to deliver the mail. But it’s different all over the place. Funny thing is I don’t remember seeing many fire hydrants anymore but maybe I’m just used to seeing them and they just Belind into the landscape. Billboards are everywhere and you just get use to them. Lots more in the cities and less as you leave the bigger cities. You’ll be here soon and I hope the rain we’ve had won’t put you off. The surf will probably be pretty high on Monday, Tuesday of this week so make sure you hit the beaches. I see Anaheim is on your tee shirt so I’m sure you’re heading to Disneyland, so have so much fun at Mickey’s house as my family calls it.

I always have thought that Lawrence would be a wonderful narrator for animal documentaries like a new Richard Attenborough...I love his voice and his dry wit...it's so awesome to see you guys and I hope the best for you ...Alex in Orange County California.

Japan has school busses too they are just not yellow. The reason for the water towers is a throwback to when the railroad went everywhere and needed water to cool the engines and the tank would generally have to be filled from above. If the town has one that means back in the 1800s it was probably established or updated by one of the original railway companies and the reason for the town name on it was so the whole train could see what stop, they were at. You can learn a lot of this at the at the Sacramento railway museum in old Sacramento in California they even run some of the old trains and you can ride them; they also have an old paddle boat you can have dinner on as it cruises the Sacramento River. Sutters Fort where the California Gold Rush started is right there as well and a lot of fun you can even have a sleep over and live like they did back then for a night and if you want to dress up Evangeline's is a three story possibly haunted historical costume mansion, and it still has the first elevator in California located in Old Sac near to the old one room schoolhouse and across from Cany Haven a great place to try old fashioned candy, salt water taffy, and gummies from around the world. I apologies for the Visit Sacramento Commercial but it's fun and educational you don't even realize you're learning something. I also recommend visiting Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Miur Woods, and maybe stop off at Disneyland. Costco has discounted family packages for the park you just have to put in your membership number. My Costco card gives me up to 1000 dollars American cash back if I book through Costco travel and you can get like a 245-dollar gift card for food and merch as a gift. I recommend a hopper pass so you can enjoy both Disneyland and California Adventure on the same day, and if you stay on property, you can enjoy early entry to both parks. DCA or California Adventure, is a lot less crowded in the morning with most of the rides being walk-ons. And in Disneyland the magic is in the Details there is a lot of hidden magic including secret menus that are often not as expensive as other menu items. There are jewelry stores and shops that give away free stuff for those who pay attention to details and know to ask. Also check with World of Disney to see if there is a scavenger hunt, they are around 10 dollars, and you get a prize when you complete it. There is also a carnival game that is like 5 dollars you catch a floating star, and the color of the sticker is what size prize you get I believe it's in DCA by the pier and everyone wins. love your videos hope this give you some helpful ideas on what to do on your trip to the US and take advantage of the Costo card it can save you thousands.

I believe the town names on the water towers were important back in the early 1900s because at the beginning of genetal aviation, that was a part of early navigation. The pilot could identify the town below by the name on the town's water tower. We will have many water towers in the rural water districts. There id a largevwater tower in my neighborhood because its right on the Illinois River. Water is drawn from the river, and stored in the reservoir and up in the tower(s). The tower in my neighborhood has the name of the local State university. The tower in the middle of town has the town's name.

Another interesting bit about fire plugs: We have these round porcelain white dots that mark our roads in between lanes. If you pay attention you'll see blue reflectors that appear to be randomly placed. Actually these blue reflectors mark the presence of a fire plug so firefighters can easily find the fire plugs while driving in the dark.

I'd love to see more videos from y'all about New Zealand culture. I loved the ones you did about home prices and some of the fast food places you have there.

Someone else may have already pointed this out, but even in the US, the mailboxes USED to be on the front door, or at least on the wall right beside it. They only moved them out to the curb for the ease of the postman. Mail routes were by FOOT- and the postman would walk door to door dropping off your mail. To get the job done FASTER and more efficiently (and to hire less workers), they moved the mail boxes out to the curb right along the road so they could put the postmen in vehicles that could just drive down the street and put everyone's mail in a box right by the curb. This cut mail delivery time exponentially. Your family is adorable!

Water towers are on every New York building at least the older ones. The reason they exist is a lot of older buildings are not connected to the city water supply and they are older buildings. Usually filled by oddly city water now. It’s the entire building’s water supply for maybe a month. Gravity fed and it works. LA uses the same method of a large water tower on the roof to provide water for the building. But the city water towers are actually there for overflow and storage purposes. They help control the amount of water in a city’s system if it rains a lot cities store the extra water in underground chambers and is pumped up to the tower for storage if needed. If it’s too dry they can divert the stored water to the water purifier system and use that for city water. It’s how Florida has done it forever. Miami unfortunately cannot do this because of how the city sits. It’s literally right on sea level and any digging instantly will uncover water in the ground. The city of Miami then has to call a company to drain the water out, call a separate company to reinforce the ground, then start adding underground timber to shore up everything, then concrete before even starting on the ground floor. It takes several weeks and often projects don’t start because of the construction company cost/ profit margin being so low. That’s why builders have to know laws here.

What would your neighbors think if you installed a flag pole and flew the NZ flag out front of your house?

Tip on the fire hydrants. Northern hydrants (areas that reach freezing temps) are called "dry hydrants" Their water source stays further down in the ground until needed and has to be pumped. Southern hydrants (areas that don't reach freezing temps) are called "wet hydrants" Their connection to the water source is immediate. That's why is some tv shows and movies wet hydrants will immediately spray up in a gusher when the vehicle hits one. If it don't gush, it's dry.

it's so funny, I'm watching this and noticing right outside we have our mailbox at the end of the yard, with the fire hydrant a couple feet away from it; no fence though, but sometimes wish we did have one to keep our the neighbors' dogs from making a mess in our yard lol.

If you guys have the chance you should visit a theme park called Knott’s Berry farm

I am happy you finally get to come to America. It is unfortunate that you will basically only be in big cities and urban areas. You will miss so much by not seeing the more rural side of America.

Mesh fences are also known as cyclone fences. They're called this because of their ability to withstand the gale-force winds of a tropical storm.

Come to America. We would love to show you our country. Thank you for showing the differences between our countries. You would be welcomed with open arms. We live in the southeast part of the United States. We kept two precious girls from Ireland for 6 weeks and fell absolutely in love with them. We cried like a baby when we took them to the airport to fly home. You have a beautiful family. God created us as individuals, in different countries to learn from each other. Putting our flags out means we love our country. I do agree we have to many billboards. Some are needed. Thank you so much for posting your channel. Enjoyed it very much. Sincerely, Linda

If you visit some of the northernmost states in the US you will find an interesting variation to the fire hydrant. They will often have long poles attached to them so that they can still be found under the snow.

Just love lost in the pond ❤ you all should fo a challenge in America. See how many flags you can count in a 10-15 min drive. I'd bet you could easily get to 100 in the right areas. (Texas etc.)😊safe travels and blessed weather

He's hilarious; been watching his videos for months. And this NZ family.

The roadside letter boxes are a relic of what used to be called RFD (rural free delivery) routes. The postman would ride a horse-drawn wagon through the farm districts outside a town and place the mail in the boxes while still sitting in the wagon. This saved time because he didn't drive down long driveways to deliver at the house. In-town deliveries were made at the front door. (To this day, post office delivery vehicles are the most common right-hand-drive vehicles in our left-hand-drive country.)

I promise you guys will get to see yellow school buses, American flags, and fire hydrants. Depending on what time of day you're driving you may even get slowed down by a yellow school bus.

Mailbox Baseball use to be a popular pasttime until some savvy Dad's got fed up and started securing the mailboxes with concrete and teenagers started getting injured. Also when I was in high school in California, a popular prank was pouring laundry detergent on the underground water sprinklers. When the sprinklers would come on it would turn the front yard into a giant sudsy mess.

One of the oldest highway signs you will see on your travels could be on a proper billboard or it could be painted on the side of an old barn. It has big white letters over a black background sometimes with bright red trim. It says, "See Rock City". It refers to an exhibit of unique rock formations located just outside Chattanooga, TN. You might also see the lesser known "See Ruby Falls" which is also near Chattanooga and features an underground waterfall. My advice? Go in the spring right after the snow has melted. Rock City is also a must visit for families. Visit while your kids are still young! :)

Water towers are usually used for small towns and farms water supplies. It's high-up on a tower to help keep water services functional using hydrostatic pressure - even during power outages.

Have you guys seen the video from some Australian Karen talking about her being "triggered" over the amount of American Flags flying in the USA and how we need to calm down.. She does have a home to go back to right? Figured I'd share.. enjoyed this channel for a long time.. right after the name change I think.. A bright ray of sunshine in this grey woke world! A family that loves each other and has real values. God Bless Y'all

So excited to see you’re videos when you get back home!

This is the second time I’ve watched this and I remembered a couple of other things I wanted to comment on. Fire hydrants-There is one at the curb just a couple of feet from my driveway. Only the firemen who come to fight the fire are the ones who use them. Water towers-I have two favorites: Florence, Kentucky has one that says, “FLORENCE Y’ALL!” There is one in central Minnesota not far from a cabin owned by relatives. It looks like a red fishing bobber, a tribute to all the fishing done in Minnesota lakes.

Decades ago, as a child, while looking at commercial paint colors, I learned that school busses are painted "New York State School Bus Yellow."

Fun, weird fact. I grew up in a small town in southern IL and the local water commission put a water tower up about 50 yards from my parents' place when I was in junior high school. A bunch of high schoolers got the bright idea to camp out in the thing before they put it to use. We got up one morning and about half a dozen teenagers were descending down the ladder toward the ground. This tower is 90 feet high, and the access hatch to get inside it was on the TOP of the thing. There was a ladder to tank, then a walkaround at the top of that ladder, and apparently a ladder to descend down into the tank. Now, knowing MY luck, had I tried that, the water commission would have decided that when I was camped out that it would be a GREAT time to fill the thing up. One of the craziest things I have ever seen anyone do.

When you come to Dallas and Fort Worth make sure you drive down highway 183. This is a highway that will take you right from Dallas to Fort Worth. There is actually a flag company along that highway and they have some giant American Flags flying out there. I see them every day I commute to work.

I've been watching Lawrence for a couple of years. Glad you discovered him!

Buses are used in Australia for Primary School but after that your on your own to figure out how to get to school 😊

I hope and pray that this family and there trip to America isn't being affected by Hurricane Hilary about to hit the SoCal area. Hopefully they got out or left early before it hits that area. Can you just image, there first time visiting America and one of the first places there going to visit gets hit by a Hurricane the first time in 84 years, crazy!

Our Patriotism is why you hear us say "God Bless America."

The mail boxes at the curb allows the mail carrier to drive by in special vehicles to deposit mail. These boxes are mostly in suburbs because the houses are so far apart. The boxes are usually next to the driveway, allowing the homeowner, upon coming home, to pull up to the box and get the mail without having to get out of the car…at least that’s why mine is where it is!

Some of the best water towers are in shapes-I have seen a teapot, a golf ball, a space ship, and amazingly enough, a sail boat!

Where I live seeing flags outside is kind of rare. On holidays like Independence Day and Memorial Day you'll see more but not during most of the year.

We were brought up to fly our flag as long as the weather permits and that typically means every day. I am from an immigrant family (my parents brought us here in the early 50’s) and we are extremely grateful for what this country represents to us and has done for us. We fly it out of respect for those who are or have served in our military throughout this country’s history and to remind people of the sacrifices they have made for us and many others across the our world. I thank the American solders who looked after my father after WWII when he was a young boy with nowhere to go. He was so impressed with them that he vowed that he would become an American citizen one day - and this is why I am here and enjoying a wonderful retirement with my wife, three children, and five grandchildren. 😊😊😊

IT SHOWED A WATER TOWER FROM ELKHART, INDIANA!!! I LIVE IN THAT TOWN!!!!!!!!

"Even educated fleas do it..." I laughed when he popped that line out. (You may or may not know it's from a Cole Porter song: "Let's Do It (Let's Fall In Love)"). I love it when random stuff like that springs out from our brain's RAM.

Water towers are very common, my town has two, water is pumped up so that at peak times of the day, there is adequate water pressure. Will be very interested to see what you see and what you think of us. Hope you have a very safe and fun trip.

I think as far as the school bus thing and the mailboxes, it has to do with the overall size of America. I mean we have states that are the size of a lot of countries. So, the busses get children to school that may be far away. Also same with mail, the amount of people that live in America, it would be nearly impossible for someone to be walking all the time putting mail in your front door, when they can ride around in a mail truck and deliver it without even getting out.

A construction crane company here in Minnesota have a huge billboard along the freeway that’s all black and just says “Quality Erections” with their phone number below. 😂

People have already mentioned water towers being used for a few purposes but one I didn't see mentioned is antennas. I used to climb towers for a living for various maintenance purposes but also to run new antennas and cables as well as decommission old ones, mostly for radio. Now they're also used for cellphone antennas, which are called sectors. I once, well my crew and I (not just me), took down two radio antennas and all the cable that ran up to them from the Ashwaubenon water tower, a steel tower a couple blocks from Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers. That was a fun day! 🙂🙂🙂

In the USA🇺🇲 we don't have gardens. We have yards. You might find a flower garden in a front yard, or a vegetable garden in a backyard. But we NEVER refer to our yard as a garden.

Fire hydrant was funny most common folk won't ever use the fire hydrant that's solely for the fire department to attach the hose to the water hydrant to put out fires in that general and yes we love our American flag throughout our history we can trace back several Generations that fought and died for that flag and all the Privileges and freedoms it brings us we're just extremely proud of our country on a personal note I fly my flag in honor of my grandfather who was the radio man in the Army in World War II thank you for your service Grandpa 🇺🇸

Water towers maintain the public water pressure averaging between 30 and 50 PSI. Mainly for the fire fighters so they have enough pressure to fight fires Mail boxes: our suburbs are quite large, talking 200 houses, each roughly 50 feet / 15 meters apart, then add spacing between driveways, you have mail for 3 of these developments, you need a jeep, if you want to deliver everything in one day. Try to do that by stopping getting out, walking 50 feet / 15 meters to the front door, and back, versus stopping , reaching out to a box by the side of the road.

Guys! Here in Gaffney, South Carolina USA, our 135 foot tall water tower "The Peachoid" is molded steel in the shape of a giant peach! (Although it mostly resembles a giant butt) Haha.

I'm so happy you are finally making the trip to the USA...be careful in LA. That city has fallen...personally I would recomend the northern part of Cali. Be ready for lots of traffic.

I love hearing you guys describe things as “MEHSSIVE”.

Love your videos. My flag is proudly flying outside my house right now. We also have a chain link fence. Great for keeping dogs in and deer out.

When I was growing up in Michigan, we had fire hydrants that were painted like people, dogs, etc.. I used to love that as a kid.
