25 Year Build-Massive 1950s Backyard Town- Coolest Thing I've Ever Made- EP28
25 years ago, Debbie and Ronnie started building their 1950s town. Not only does it have 14 separate buildings, but each one of them is jammed packed with 1950s nostalgia. With little to no help, Ronnie built each of the building using mainly recycled and found material and his wife Debbie proceeded to paint them and fill them to the brim. From their working diner (with functioning soda machines) to the full size gas station, this has to be one of the most impressive backyard towns in the world. This is an exclusive first look at this incredible creation.

Determination your dad.
Is this the guy from chuck palahniuks memoir book?
Sweeeeeetttt
Wow!!!❤ Thats amazing!!! Truly impressive!!!
Dude is the human equivalent of an ant. Go go go. Incredible
It’s a good thing that the castle wasn’t built in an earthquake zone!
there was a postman that built a castle with rocks he collected on his routes
Bishop's Castle Colorado! Been here MANY times! Love it!
That’s a pool 😂
That's incredible!
Good Son, this is awesome that you have made sure that your father’s legacy has not been forgotten. This was truly a Labor of Love ❤️ and I’m so Happy that your father is still alive to see ALL the people that have come to see it and enjoy it. 🙏
Holy shit. Id have died within the first year
This Is truly a labor of Love. ❤️… I pray that your children will keep everything in tact after you’ll are gone, because it would be a shame to get rid of this wonderful place 😃
Wish my wife would allow me to do this haha. Some times you just need time to yourself.
A true labor of love and a work of art. The Yankees would be fools not to at least offer to purchase it.
I don’t think I would be saying you got all the rocks out of rivers and land on federal lands..? Sounds like an invitation to a big headache for you and your family if the government or state ever gets bored or wants something from y’all & uses that as leverage..?
Man built the cleanest pond there is, too bad it took him that long or he'd be the one flipping into it, very awesome, you can tell how much he enjoys his family enjoying his awesome creation
WOW
Is that an old Ford ?
That is so cool he threw raves therw
Loved Hillary in the out house.
Paradise inthe backyard
Coolest thing I’ve seen.
I love that she had Hillary in the outhouse!! 😂
Where is this??
Colorado. Near Pueblo
Cool!
dads everywhere strive to be this legend
I’d have some big ass fish in there f a pool
You shouldn’t of said shit to anyone about how u did it. U just let people guess how you did it Then see how long it took them to say aliens helped you….
The is American know how Blessings 🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱🎚
How is it so clean.
Great job, wish you were my neighbor
Today, you'd get arrested for stealing the rocks.
😂😂 probably
Absolutely amazing
I love the joy and happiness they have while talking about this!! I hope my husband and I are just as happy as they seem!
They are the cutest couple!!
CBD is good for Parkinson and also THC products
The hero we needed but don’t deserve
Wow, is this America? I’m surprised the Gestapo has not come to confiscate his land because he’s got something so nice
Meanwhile I can’t even fix my kitchen sink 🤯
Sir, is your permits up to date😂
Why is all the food fake 🇬🇧?
B/c they do not cool or heat the buildings and the real food would rot and attract bugs and rodents
@@DrinkYourNailPolish I think I get it 🇬🇧
Been there! Met the dad when I was 16 gosh like 2006. It’s amazing.
Wow, Awesome.
Where is the castle
Close to Rye Colorado. Beautiful drive to the castle
this man’s castle is his home 🏰
Epic
Very impressive. As a model railroader, artist and Jack of all trades like yourself I must say you are amazingly inspiring to me. I'll never forget the beauty of your work or the creative passion that drives you. You should be bursting with pride about the great happiness you have brought to others. Godspeed and peace.
My dad would bring us to Lake Superior We would drink the water while we swam
They should visit my shop for fake food items. You too 👈🏼🥰
