About My YouTube Playlists

I have way more video playlists on my YT channels than I have listed on my website. I'm still working on that and more are coming!

Dusty Reins Stories Playlists Page

You may note that not all the videos on some playlists are actually on my channels. That is because if I run across a good video from another source, I may add it to a playlist to help out other channels or because there is some good info in those other videos. You won't get a notification when I add videos from other channels so it pays to take a look at a playlist every now and then for new content.

You may not get to view some videos on a playlist. When YouTube puts an age limit on a video you will not be able to view it on my site. You will have to have a YouTube account and watch it after signing in if you are 18 or over. Also, some videos are restricted to only my Channel Members. Membership is not active just yet but will be soon!

I Need Help

I need your help to identify American annual community celebrations or events between the Mississippi River and the Sierra and Cascade mountains and from Canada to Mexico borders. If you live within those boundaries I would like you to send me the name, date(s), and locations of annual events in your area.

UPDATE: 10/14/2022 - I am already penciling in places and dates on my schedule for 2023. You can see my schedule at the bottom of the page and your suggestions will show up after I can verify the event.

Cowgirl & Horse

Neches is an unincorporated community in east central Anderson County, in the U.S. state of Texas. According to the Handbook of Texas, the community had a population of 175 in 2000. It is located within the Palestine, Texas micropolitan area. I was not there to visit the community itself but to a wonderful annual event held on the Diamond B Ranch just a few miles from the Post Office here. Send me your suggestions about other places and events to explore in the area.

Annual Events

The 1836 Chuckwagon Races

This is one of my favorite scenes from one of the many events at The 1836 featuring Moon Swanson who operates the Diamond B Ranch and is the host of the annual celebration of Texas Independence. Click the link above for more details and videos.

Dusty Reins Schedule

You may see several events on the same day. I can only pick one to go next depending on where I was located during the prior event I attended. Fuel is expensive these days!
