Now, more than ever, it is imperative that we keep the voices of the past alive not only for ourselves but for the generations to come so they can see the past and hopefully incorporate it into the future - and I hope that there are those out there who will ensure that these ghost towns are not forgotten and fade away into the night. Without the past, we would not have a future.

I'm going to Nevada over spring break with my grandparents and I think I'll recommend we go here. Last spring break we went to San Diego and we planned to go to the Desert View Tower after seeing your video of it, that is until I got sick halfway through our vacation. I love your videos Justin, can't wait to see where they may take us next spring break.
