Our Trip To WACO - Dr Pepper Museum and TEXAS RANGER Museum! - Moving To America [Episode 21] 

There is a story about the Rangers that there was a town in north Texas that was experiencing lawlessness and the sheriff asked for the Rangers to send men to help quell everything. When the Ranger arrived, the sheriff asked why there was only one. The Ranger replied "There's only one riot". He took care of it. Texans know you don't fool around with Rangers...the DPS.

I love this! I feel like I’m getting to experience America for the first time through your videos, even though I’ve lived here for my entire life. It’s great!

I hope u get a chance to come to Charleston SC sometime I’m sure u will love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We need a reaction to y'all trying Bluebell ice cream!!! Then a Bluebell and Dr Pepper float!!

Thank you for the great video, and bringing us along for the tours. Very interesting!

15:00 there are still places around the US like this you just have to go looking for them.

I discovered your channel this week and love it. You are so charming, personal and “real” - whatever you find interesting and want to show is lots of fun. You are both sunshine in a state well know for it.❤

I am originally from Brenham, TX. It is the home of Blue Bell ice cream. You can usually get a tour of the plant. If you end up near there, check it out. It is a beautiful little town there. I have to add that in the spring you will see the Bluebonnet flowers, fields of them. They are beautiful. This video made me homesick😢

I subbed to Tasha's channel but the video I clicked on had no comment section. Anyway, Tasha, I'll be watching! I lived in Texas for 10 yrs ( based in Houston but traveled around the state a lot) and I LOVED IT! Welcome to America!!! May your days be filled with love and adventure. After Texas, there is a lot more to see on your road to citizenship. Blessings, karen

As you comment on this or that I keep wanting to fill you in. So funny! I’m loving how you love TX & USA. My son relocated about 1.5 hrs south of Houston a couple yrs ago from middle US. He also loves it. You picked a good spot. Lots to see. Once the weather warms up you’re not far from the Gulf & fun beach time! I will continue to pray all keeps going well. Best wishes from Nebraska ❤

To become a Texas Ranger you must work at DPS(Dept. of Public Safety) at least 2 years and have an additional 6 years (at minimum) with a law enforcement agency doing criminal investigations. There are several other requirements that must be met... I am so glad that y'all are enjoying living here!!!

You should watch a movie called "Man of the house" Tommy Lee Jones as a Texas Ranger. I could absolutely see that lol. It's a good movie, very funny.

From where I am in Texas, I can drive east for 16 hrs and still be in Texas lol

Next time you’re in Waco go by and visit the Maybourn Museum! It’s just a mile from the Texas Ranger museum!

Y’all should have gone to the Magnolia compound. It’s pretty cool

When I was a child, long ago, there was a tv show called the Texas Rangers and there theme song These are tales of Texas Rangers. This was in the mid 1950's. The episodes were supposed to be taken from the real life Texas Ranger files. I imagine you can still find it on RU-vid or some of the streaming services.

Watching your videos, I'm reminded of that Lyle Lovett song. "That's right you're not from Texas But Texas wants you anyway." Y'all are just the cutest. ❤

I just discovered your channel a couple of days ago. As a Texan, I’m thrilled that you picked it for your new home. One other thing that you can look forward to seeing in the spring is the arrival of the bluebonnets. They’re a perennial flower native to Texas. They typically start blooming in March and put on a fabulous display of “neon” royal blue. You can google them ahead of time to get an idea of what to expect.

Do research on the Katy railroad!!!

I love how you guys love America more than some Americans born and raised here ..we need more people like you guys here...welcome home!!!

There are a number of train museums all over Texas. There is one in Richmond (old downtown) that is not too far from you (look up the back road from Katy).

I’m loving the longer videos so much to see ‼️🙏

For a little history, visit Washington on the Brazos. You might go on to Independence before heading down to Brenham for Blue Bell Ice Cream and/or a meal at It Must Be Heaven.

My ancestor came over on the London Merchant in 1620. He brought his young wife and infant boy. That's how long my family has been in America!!! Their name is on the passenger list.

For a really cool show you should check out Walker Texas Ranger. The original with Chuck Norris, NOT the remake.

My great-aunt’s father was a Texas Ranger from about 1900 on. All I know is that it was still very wild and he rode on horseback. I wish I’d been old enough to ask for more stories!

There is a police museum in downtown Houston you might want to visit.

My great grandfather was a Texas Ranger beginning in 1886. There were pictures of him but they burned in a house fire. He had passed away before I was born, so I did not get to hear about all the cool stories. He worked around Kaufman county as a Ranger and areas around there. I was told he sometimes went to wherever he was needed in Texas.

History is awesome. American history, world history, all of it.... even the History of a softdrink 👍

You passed Hamer at the Rangers museum. He’s the one that got Bonnie and Clyde!!!

I've heard you mention in another video that you love 'Band of Brothers'. When you have time, you can take a "short" 😂 trip to Toccoa, GA and see the museum there. I would even buy the tickets to the museum for you. You can also drive up Currahee.

Oh shiiiit, you got Casey's gas station pizza, it's fire! I like it more than most pizza places.

I’m in Houston, Mikey. Y’all reach out if you *anything!*

I'm a 7up guy..ice cold !

Aww you want to become a Ranger. I need to visit that museum. I love the history🙏💛

I highly recommend getting the country fried steak, green beans, hash brown casserole, and dumplings at a Cracker Barrel. I absolutely love their country fried steak.

That was neat and much more than it just being a drink ..I wonder if the original formula had amphetamines added to it like Coca Cola was in it's early era. The Texas Rangers museum is the bomb , what an awesome walk though that was /****/

Don't worry Mikey, once the heat sets in come May, the cold will be a long forgotten memory.

All old school sodas started off touting health benefits, some or maybe all called themselves tonics. Coke, Pepsi and Dr Pepper were all invented by pharmacists. Have y'all tried the Dr Pepper shake at Whataburger?

If you want to see the stores from the 1930s, take a trip on Route 66, drive it, and go back in time!

Google an article called "Remembering the Great Dr Pepper Standoff at Dublin, Texas". ..Dublin, Texas was a bottling company for Dr Pepper.

So did i hear you're living in Katy, TX? If so, I've got a classmate that lives there. We're originally from SE, IL. Her name is Keri. I don't recall what her married name is, but we went to the same church as teenagers. We used to converse a bit on Facebook Messenger, but she deleted her account for privacy reasons about 10 years ago now. The only time I've ever been in Texas was in 1985 as a 11 year old kid on vacation. We first went down to Galveston for a week, and then drove up to San Antonio, sited tge Alamo, and before we could do the River Walk, a massive thunderstorm came thru the area, which made us skidattle out of there, because it caused some flash flooding. And then from San Antone, we went to White Sands and Carlsbad, NM. Stayed there in Carlsbad for a few days, to see the Caverns and White Sands. Then came back down into Texas to stay at El Paso for a few days at a campground that was at like the first Exit into the state. EXIT 1. Went into Juarez, Mexico. Yeah, one does not simply go into Juarez today, as it's a Cartel Drug Warzone, but in 1985, it was still fairly safe for tourists. Then after El Paso, we went up to the ultimate destination of our trip...Albuquerque, NM. Where my dad had his bi-annual job convention. It was in Colorado Springs in 1983, and then in Portland, ME in 1987. (We made a whole New England trip out of that one...including visiting that white and red lighthouse that you see in all the Maine scenery/nature footage.) But New Mexico up around Albuquerque is beautiful. Now that you're in Texas, you need to do some road tripping around the Southwestern states. You'll love them. Very scenic. I would move to Sedona, AZ if I could. It's about 20 miles south of Flagstaff, AZ, and the road to get to it (Rt 89A) goes thru Oak Creek Canyon, which is lined with pine trees and is a nice little drive in of itself. Kinda weird to see pine tress that far south into the desert. I'm just saying that if you ever get over to see the Grand Canyon, and stay in Flagstaff (as we did), take that little jaunt down to Sedona. It's an awesome littke place settled down in a red rock canyon. The different lighting effects from the sun at differenf times of day on he rock formations is incredible. Lots of great hiking trails there too. Check out any videos on YT about Sedona. And you'll see why i'd wanna move there.

Some of those little old shops are still out there. If you guys do enough traveling I'm sure you'll find one.

I just discovered y’all’s channel earlier today and I love it! If y’all make it to Dallas to visit, I can tell you the best places to visit and eat! Also, since y’all are in Katy, you are close to Galveston, which has so much history! I look forward to more videos, I also followed Tasha’s page. :)

Try a hot Dr. Pepper. Heat it to almost boiling and serve in a tea cup with a slice of lemon on the side. Really good on a cold nite!!!!

Enjoying your day trips from Katy! This Alabamian is cold, but my many Texan cousins are colder!

You can say you're from Houston. If someone ask where in Houston, you say Katy area

What are the UK museums like? Over here we call these types of museums classic Americana. Don't forget, so many Europeans seem to think that the USA is too young to have much history. It's nice to see you do videos that debunk this myth.

Start your Planning for Total Solar Eclipse in April !

Now you understand why we ❤️ our big comfy vehicles.

I love your content. Only problem I have is I am older and when you move the camera around I get like motion sickness. Lol. Could you please move the camera slower?

Just wait until you get to the NASA museum AKA Space Center Houston, and it's not as far as Waco.

Great video. Wait until you drive to Florida or another state if you think Waco is far. You will appreciate this little cold very soon lol

Are you having any problem driving on the "right" side of the road, espeicailly when turning? I don't know how well I would do driving in Britian for the first few weeks.

It's so much fun to watch you two become Americans! I love that you are getting into the history. Mikey, you were clearly born in the wrong country! The thing you need to know about the weather in Texas is that once or twice every Winter, the Siberian Express comes through and you get cold like it is now. Often, freezing rain and ice come with it but the good thing is that it doesn't last long. Then you get to the Spring with the hellacious thunder, lightening, wind, and rain and sometimes tornadoes. You will be amazed by it. Again, it blows through quickly since there are no mountains to impede or slow it down. In the Summer you get the horribly oppressive heat and humidity. It's not the heat that is so bad, it's the humidity that makes it so miserable. There is nothing to do but get through it. The best month and season by far is Fall/Autumn when the weather is typically mild.

If you guys want memorabilia stuff from back in the day, plan a route 66 road trip west (or just drive west really). You'll find sooooooo many old, rustic and quirky rest stops/gas stations/little museums. We call them "whole in the wall" places mostly....and no road trip is ever complete without eating the cheap food (like that pizza) found along your way 😃

Denny's doesn't have the best reputation. I'd like to see you react to "I Hate Denny's" by Theo Von, lol

Yo what’s up

Keep in mind that the USA was started by a bunch of British citizens who were unhappy that their king refused to recognize the rights they believed were given by God and basically decided to thumb their collective nose at him and start a revolution

I love your videos, but the audio is bad in the car. You should invest in a good microphone. Its the audio that is noticed the most, more than the video.

1930's America probably wouldn't be the best timeframe to travel back to... with the whole great depression and prohibition going on 😂

I didn't know Tash was a teacher. Our biggest concern. Wonderful Teacher's is what we need. You can move anywhere every few years in the U.S easy if you want 🙏❤
