this might be one of my new
0:03
favorite downtown old school vintage
0:06
style storefronts look at this and they
0:10
even have their Christmas lights up
0:12
still on that pole welcome everyone Adam
0:15
the woo here starting off this morning
0:17
in the small Community of Hope Arkansas
0:21
it's my second channel daily Vlog
0:23
channel it's the daily wo definitely
0:26
something to be said for these quaint
0:29
little towns Taekwondo you don't hear
0:31
much about that anymore with MMA kind of
0:34
taking over my dad used to take
0:37
Taekwondo when I was young classic
0:39
vehicles
0:41
old neon actually that's not that old of
0:44
a neon sign I think it's like a remade
0:46
neon sign but either way nice right
0:49
along the railway is this metal tin
0:53
aluminum train embedded on the fence and
0:57
the
0:58
conductor Bill Clinton oh great A black
1:03
cat just crossed my path they say that's
1:05
very bad luck wait a second on Second
1:08
Glance is that a cat or is it a dog or
1:11
is it some other sort of mythical
1:13
creature it's glowing it's glowing this
1:16
is interesting however this old small
1:19
teeny tiny railroad car made for two and
1:24
it just moves on down the track never
1:27
seen nothing like that before in 1909
1:29
the merchants of Hope paid to have their
1:31
names of their business imprinted into
1:34
the sidewalk cigars for 5 cents sleep
1:38
comfortably on cold metal Springs
1:43
guaranteed chew wriggley Juicy Fruit the
1:47
gum with fruit flavor I wonder if that
1:50
was his gum of choice on the side of
1:54
Wilson's Saloon are some old murals and
1:57
check out the Coca-Cola one at the top
2:00
relieves
2:02
fatigue it's a pretty good advertising
2:04
campaign you'll notice the entryway to
2:06
the businesses do not match up with what
2:09
they are current day and I think that's
2:12
fascinating a little bit of the past
2:14
will always remain I always get a smile
2:17
on my face when I see a old school
2:19
barber shop with a barber shop pole oh
2:22
man remember when he was on the Areno
2:25
Hall Show playing the
2:28
saxophone he was a saxophone player just
2:30
about a mile from the downtown area it's
2:34
a place called Brazzle oakrest funeral
2:37
home but there wasn't always a funeral
2:39
home here in fact there used to be a
2:41
hospital here and that is where the 42nd
2:44
President of the United States was born
2:48
on August 19th 1946 it's an interesting
2:51
thought but it just popped in my head
2:54
what if he returned here after his
2:57
passing and they had the funeral here
2:59
here so he was born here and had the
3:02
funeral in the same
3:05
location pretty interesting now I
3:07
seriously doubt that will happen but if
3:08
it did that would be quite the footnote
3:11
in presidential history and did you know
3:13
this fun fact about United States inner
3:16
states that if you're going north to
3:18
south it's odd numbers if you're going
3:20
east to west it's even numbers but what
3:24
if you're going
3:26
diagonally Northeast
3:32
that's very confusing for a few dollars
3:32
if you stop off at a Love's truck stop
3:36
you can dump the black and gray
3:54
water want to make sure this thing is on
3:54
there very secure don't want it popping
3:58
off looks good let's Let Her
4:03
Fly oh
4:05
yeah there it
4:11
goes first thing you want to
4:11
do according to what I have been
4:21
taught is let out the nasty water first
4:21
so this is basically the number one and
4:23
number two
4:24
water before clean the hose
4:28
out with the somewhat clean water which
4:32
is the second little pulley
4:40
there now for nozzle number
4:40
two oh yeah oh yeah you can hear it
4:43
sloshing through well it's coming out
4:45
pretty good pretty fast cleaning out all
4:50
that all that
4:59
nastiness a lot of water in there hav it
4:59
empty this in a
5:27
while I know I should have worn gloves
5:27
but I didn't get any on me next time I
5:31
wear the gloves wasn't
5:39
thinking all in all a success it's good
5:39
to have a little hand sanitizer as well
5:43
you don't want follicles from this
5:45
guy coming back to haunt you passing
5:47
through Prescott now some advertisements
5:50
from the past on the side of these
5:52
buildings
5:54
cocacola and another one saying are you
5:56
a woman take some sort of Medicine
6:00
what is that
6:01
cardill Cargill car carbal I'm not sure
6:05
what that is I've noticed the style of
6:07
these old towns are set up in a couple
6:10
different fashion there is the type
6:13
where there's a Town Square like Back to
6:15
the Future style Hill Valley but then
6:17
there's the type where there's a
6:19
railroad over to the right and then the
6:22
downtown area is immediately to the left
6:24
and I must say I love both styles
6:30
it's another barber pole that one's like
6:32
a concrete one just slammed in the
6:34
ground you don't see many of these much
6:36
anymore but back in the day there was a
6:37
trend of video stores combined with
6:41
tanning beds I really love this sign
6:44
check out the cardboard cutouts in the
6:46
window and The Lion King prominently
6:49
displayed it appears to be a thrift
6:51
store now but from what I can tell they
6:54
have DVDs back there this place might
6:57
still be open for business occasionally
7:00
not at the moment however it's padlocked
7:02
this guy hate to say it not looking too
7:05
incredible at the wait look he's charred
7:09
I wonder what if we spent a little too
7:11
much time in that tanning bath do you
7:13
see them do you see
7:17
them what is
7:20
happening what is Hitchcock would be
7:24
foroud
7:32
right down
7:33
here is the little Missouri
7:36
River over this ledge I don't want to
7:40
drive too close cuz I don't want to go
7:41
in the water but there it is this is
7:43
pretty nice down here with the exception
7:45
of an occasional vehicle going over the
7:49
bridge it's very quiet and
7:51
Serene and
7:54
peaceful beautiful not sure how that
7:57
tree ended up in that
8:00
position that's that's a mystery I've
8:02
never been very good at Rock skipping I
8:04
think I need to be closer to the ground
8:06
I'm kind of up on this embankment but
8:08
I'll give it a shot here it
8:11
goes wh wh wh
8:14
wh fail okay I'm a little bit closer to
8:17
the water I have the perfect Flat Rock
8:21
no excuses Adam no
8:25
excuses well I got got got two skips man
8:29
I stink at
8:39
bridges I think I might be the only one
8:39
on the stretcher Road currently not
8:42
complaining just just stating a fact
8:44
ladies and gentlemen I present to you
8:47
the most insane
8:51
mailbox I have ever witnessed in my life
8:56
chainsaws all around it
8:59
what the heck look at that this is
9:03
beyond
9:05
words utterly amazing you win sir or
9:10
ma'am whoever owns that
9:14
you win oh my gosh I'm in girded now gur
9:19
d n and they have a thing here that
9:21
started in
9:22
1892 called the order of the hooo
9:27
normally I would be overly excited about
9:28
a cleaner named Majestic but I think in
9:32
this time and place the hooo takes
9:34
precedence the banners down the main
9:36
drag state health happiness and long
9:40
life but I want to know what the heck is
9:44
the order of the who who right here next
9:46
to the former railroad station is a
9:50
monument erected in
9:53
1909 about the
9:56
organization there are two cats on top
9:59
guarding it what does it
10:03
mean what does it mean this is a very
10:07
peculiar Place indeed oh check out the
10:10
old First National Bank it's used for
10:12
storage now but that's the old bank
10:14
vault there in the corner and adding a
10:16
little more weirdness to this place have
10:20
you seen the Gir light is it gir Geren
10:23
or Gordon or how do you pronounce this
10:26
town in 1931 rail worker Louis McBride
10:29
attacked Foreman will mlan on a section
10:31
of track 4 miles north of town as mlan
10:34
fled McBride beat him repeatedly on the
10:37
head with a spike Maul until mlan fell
10:41
dead still clutching the handle of his
10:43
Lantern what in the name of the heck is
10:46
going on in this place and why wait his
10:49
head's gone was it beaten completely off
10:52
his torso I'm confused but I must get to
10:55
the bottom of this what is this wacky
10:59
International order I keep hearing about
11:03
and why is it funded out of Bard County
11:05
Florida near my old stomping grounds now
11:09
that's that's even stranger there is an
11:11
etching of a cat on the front door see
11:14
if it's
11:20
open work for trade magazines one was a
11:20
railroad man one was a newspaper man but
11:24
while they were strained they met at
11:26
this hotel Hall and that's when they
11:28
came up the to have a fun organization
11:32
where they could talk about the forest
11:33
industry to mean anything strange or
11:35
unusual so who who means something
11:38
strange or unusual as were they coined
11:40
at that time he had been reading lisis
11:42
Carroll who wrote Alison Wonderland he
11:45
had been reading some poems called
11:46
hunting of snark Lis Carl had written so
11:49
our president is not known as a
11:51
president he is known as snark of the
11:53
universe the president is snark of the
11:56
universe so they bored from the Egyptian
11:59
and that's why you'll see the black cat
12:02
we know the Egyptians worship the black
12:04
cat so our mascot is a black cat whose
12:07
tail always makes the number nine if you
12:09
want to know it's for sure oh the number
12:11
nine is his tail his tail I see this
12:14
says Los Angeles is there in order in La
12:16

12:18

15:31
a
15:51
while my gosh that bird adding the
15:51
perfect Aura of ambiance the shrieking

noise it was making reminded me a lot of
15:57
the shower scene music go back and

16:07
psycho seems to be some very heavy cloud
16:07
formations developing off in the
16:10
distance check this place out Gum
16:13
Springs population 120 so small in fact
16:17
there wasn't any sort of downtown or
16:21
stores nothing but straight ahead is a
16:23
little bit of civilization Arad Delphia
16:27
Arkansas's version of of Philadelphia
16:30
perhaps I'm noticing the size of the
16:32
flags here in Arkansas considerably
16:34
smaller than the size of the Flags in
16:36
Texas Vegas Monument award goes to this
16:40
this cannon is thought to have been made
16:42
in the Ordinance Works located on Six
16:44
and Main Streets it may have been used
16:48
in the defense of Arkadelphia this one's
16:51
doubling down on the barber shop poles
16:54
I'm seeing a lot more of these around
16:56
these parts where they station them in
17:01
ground if your car was to hit that you
17:04
would definitely have a momento in your
17:06
hood very
17:08
patriotic police
17:10
car Arkadelphia I still can't get over
17:12
that name the bank in downtown on the
17:15
side of the wall has an elk
17:19
head made out of concrete just wedged up
17:23
there wonder if anyone even notices it
17:25
when they walk down here to shop the
17:27
landscape is starting to change a little
17:29
bit a lot more trees very beautiful part
17:32
of the
17:35
country that's for sure
