The Roads Leading Home / September 1 & 2 

I never realized the Black Hills had a national cemetery. Learn something new everyday.

Singing and smiling , Jim is very relaxed ! Like everyone the scenery is beautiful thanks Tracy and Jim

What a beautiful trip and it was so good to see Jim smiling!!! And Tracy, wherever you go, you always find those gorgeous sunsets -- wish I had a picture of the ones with wheat in front!

Well, Tracy and Jim, thanks so much for the time and memories u folks share with us. And yes, Nebraska is the good life. The most impressive is the neat small places few people stop to appreciate .can't wait to see what the next journey will be. I'll stay tuned. Thanks again for sharing.😊😊😊

Another beautiful sunset such a nice view thanks for the tour its awesome

Sure hope that you can go north again next year. In the meantime, keep er between the ditches Jim😅❣️

I’m sure those nice folks you worked for this year, discovered they had met a diamond in the rough and will welcome you back with open arms! Stay safe

Well done Tracy, easy to watch and understand where you two are at. Great photography and editing all in one. That was one of the coolest water falls I have seen.

I drove over the Missouri River today in St. Louis...Very Low on Water...underscores the drought conditions in the Midwest.

Wonderful scenery, you guys are the best, thank you.

Nicely done folks. The falls were especially pretty. .No crowds...how lucky you are!!!!!

Nebraska the good life. I am sure it is a great place to call home. So is the Flathead Valley where I live

Once again thanks for the ride along. You guys be safe, and see you the next time.

thanks for the update, we certainly enjoyed following you harvesting in Montana and hope you can do it again next year, i do hope you can keep making videos to share now that you are home, thanks again, see ya tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love how you listen to 70s music, my generation!!! You've shown me country I may never see. Can't say up north is where I would ever want to live.

Nice one Tracy Yourself and Jim are truly blessed by God

Had son married yrs ago in val coming from Wi. it was a relief to see a river of that size

They float down the middle loup river by Mullen in cattle watering tanks...lol In March I think. Thanks again for the video, DJ from Alaska.

Now I'm a little more annoyed at myself for taking a wrong turn in Grass Range, MT a year ago and missing the rest of MT 200 to Jordan and the section of MT 59 from Jordan to Miles City. I had turned off of 200 to pass through Grass Range to see the rodeo going on there and when the loop brought me back to the highway, I instinctively turned right again. It was raining hard and I didn't have the sun to tell me I was headed south on US 87 instead of east on 200--that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. Having been on a dinosaur excavation project in the Hell Creek Formation some 48 years ago, I was wanting to overnight in Jordan and visit the big digs north of town. OK, I wanted to have a beer or two at the Hell Creek Bar, also. Between the rain and not wanting to turn and backtrack, we just proceeded to Roundup and Forsyth and on over to Miles City to pick up MT 59 there. You passed by the huge laydown yard of the Clearwater Wind Project south of Cohagen along 59. Today is the first realization I've had of its construction. We've passed through Broadus several times and even overnighted at the campground at the 59-212 junction once. We took in an hour of a rodeo there one afternoon. Your pictures of your growing family at the sign over the years are terrific. We've once run down US 83 from Murdo, SD to Valentine, NE but we continued down 83 to Thedford to pick up NE-2 through the heart of the Sand Hills. One of these days, we'll hang around Valentine for a few days and do some cycling on the Cowboy Trail and some paddling on the Niobrara River. The paddling will represent our 3rd piece of river running in Nebraska, having "tanked" the Middle Loup near Mullen, NE twice now. It's a treat to follow your travels and thanks for your efforts to show descriptions of exactly where you are!

Thank you for the ride along. God Bless.

Thanks yawl for the ride along!

Thanks so much for the great pictures again!

What a ride on your way home. Lots of great pictures. You have many great stops on the way home. Really enjoyed the ride home. Will be lookin for the next chapter in the journey home. CYA

Your videos make me miss my growing up in ND. Miss all the people.

It'll cool off soon enough. Sept 9- 10 2020 we all had our furnaces on in north Iowa. Don't have too much fun in Valentine. John T.

Thank you so much for the videos. We live 8 miles from the Bahnmillers and enjoyed every day of harvest.

enjoyed the video i hope you keep making them take care

We all hope your back next year also😊

WE LOVE YOU GUYS. THANK YOU FOR TAKING US ALONG

Hermoso lugar saludos abrazos desde Argentina

Nice video as always. Seeing the country side I remembered my first trip to Havre, Mt. My car at that time I only had an AM radio and as the evening came the stations that I was listening began to go off the air. Beautiful water falls. Have a safe trip going back home.

I traveled NE on the job for years out of KC. It is great to see some of the things I missed along the way. Thanks!

Thank you so much Tracy and Jim for those beautiful videos from your great country. I always watch them with a real pleasure from France and I travel with you every day. I also learn the geography and follow you from Montana to your home state Nebraska (through South Dakota). You’re both beautiful ❤. See y’a tomorrow !!…. Jean-Louis from France

I goto get up that way b4 I cant.. it's beautiful

Tracy, we have cousins at Big Timber, Brodas and BellFouce. I also have traveled a quite a few roads in that country while I drove long haul trucks. Some awfully beautiful country! Thank you for the video memories.

Doesn’t look Jordon has changed much since I was there last other than the wind generators going in great video as always 😊and yes it hot down south 😅

Sure enjoyed seeing a lot of your harvesting trip & of Valentine Nebraska..Stayed there 1 night many years ago on our way home from a quick trip to Texas.Was in Feb,& was so cold & windy the hotel couldn,t get the rooms heated very good so had to keep our coats on in the room while we played cards in evening . Hope to see you folks on again next year.

Thanks Tracy and Jim!!! Your videos and stories bring back so many wonderful memories, assume you came down thru Gordon on your way to Valentine. Met my wife in Porcupine, she grew up in Gordon and has told me many “combiner” stories as the harvesting came thru the area So glad I found your channel as your stories keep me sane as I go thru a series of surgeries Keep enjoying life!!

Good video

I didn't even know that existed in Nebraska

I sense that you had a mechanical breakdown in Jordan. It's a good thing you were not in a hurry this trip.

No question….The Good Life! We just flew from UT to Lincoln for NE girls volleyball. NE people are the best! Thank you for a beautiful journey back home.

I get jealous of watching you two and your adventures. My wife and I used to travel Canada because of my health it made it difficult to cross the 49th.

Thanks Guys Have Fun

We want to travel with you two. We live in Georgia!

Thank you so much. When is your next adventure?

Ill have to stop off at smith falls one time on my way to Minnesota that I do every year. Looks pretty cool. Thanks for the footage. Noticed you didnt get any badlands footage.

I've have a few timeouts there at DOT myself lol.

Was that a construction site home base for the windmill development? At 2:40.Quite an operation!

👍👍I think it’s pretty this morning no I think it’s dreary this morning 😂😂 good one Jim . Thanks for the great trip you took us on 😀

I will always remember Valentine Nebraska in the early 70s we were moving our harvest crew and we were involved in a very bad accident ,we were coming down the hill by Valentine and the hydraulic brakes on the truck blew a hydraulic line and the truck with combine freewheeled down the hill and at the bottom the hill was a bridge ,our truck and combine smashed into our leading truck and combine also there was a vehicle with a camper we all met on that bridge we totalled off one combine one truck and the other car with camper were destroyed thankfully no one was killed ,it took our crew most of the evening to clean up that mess off that bridge that was the worst and only accident we had in the 18 years of custom harvesting

Don't try to pull two trailers like that in California. Will look forward to next year.

12:51 👍👍👍

You should have stood outside until your lips turned blue then you will appreciate the heat more!🥶🥵 There's been quite a range of weather while you've been gone. Dry and hot to cool and wet back to hot again. Welcome back to Nebraska The Good Life. Lived here all my life, can't imagine living somewhere else. 👍

Jim. Don't you drop that camera. Just kidding. Thanks for the show.

On to corn and beans locally ??

How does the custom cutters get paid by the acre by the bushel

Would of like to know when you were passing through. Went by within 40 miles. I would of met up and buy you lunch. Would like to say I’ve met you and Jim in person. My kind of people. Love the videos.

I'm sitting in Valentine doing a 30 minute break and just went by the railroad bridge you were filming. Small world eh?

What to you is a good life? Nice place, less pollutants, less people? Nice economic country situations? For me, its none of the above. Good life for me is that i can be a person who has realized the very nature of life itself! If one is blind to the well-being of life, one will find himself of the good stuffs externally. While for the self-realized person, any place would suit him perfectly!

I do not know anything about 5th wheeling..... What do you have strapped to the rear ladder? Any idea how many miles Jim put on the motorcycle?

Thank you so much for sharing. " AMER1CA"

Tracy, What type of camera are you using?

Taking your monthly bath???

Tracy you could have taken a shower under that falls

Windmills not turning 🤦‍♂️ my wife that’s because someone turned the switch (electricity to run them) off lol😂 Ok so I see they are still under construction but I hardly ever pass one where 10 to 20% are not turning a total waste of tax payer dollars
