0:07 today's adventure begins with a fill-up

0:07 without gas without fuel

0:13 this might be a little more difficult to

0:13 accomplish

0:28 Mississippi mi SS ISS IPP hi the Sun is

0:28 just starting to rise this fog will soon

0:30 be burning off it's very interesting how

0:34 at the state line the road completely

0:37 changes texture

0:39 welcome everyone Adam is the woo here

0:42 today number three of an eight part

0:44 series we're going cross-country I dive

0:47 deep into the back roads off the beaten

0:50 path the road less traveled if you will

0:59 let's get in there I'm inviting you to

0:59 join me there's a mosquito or there's a

1:01 mosquito on my ear shall you by using

1:05 this road Atlas can give you a general

1:07 overview entering right over here and

1:13 gonna cruise through the nooks and

1:15 crannies of the centralized area and

1:18 then later on this evening

1:20 and up right over in this section

1:57 sometimes just natural sounds do the

1:57 trick lots of birds

2:10 it's very rusted out but there's a regal

2:10 beer sign and above it is a child's

2:14 automobile perched on the roof one thing

2:20 I really enjoy when I travel are

2:22 advertising campaigns left on the side

2:24 of bricks fading away this coca-cola and

2:27 there's even a sprite one there on the

2:30 left

2:30 Lauderdale Springs is the site of a

2:33 hospital where 1020 CSAs and 80 Union

2:38 men were wounded and laid to rest

2:47 learn a lot from these historical

2:47 markers that haze doesn't seem to be one

2:55 to go away just looming are you guys up

3:04 to any plans anything you're looking

3:13 forward to throughout the course of the

3:15 near future

3:26 says scuba SC oo

3:26 ba I would imagine at one point all

3:31 these buildings were connected creating

3:33 the entire strip of downtown the Town

3:36 Hall adjacent to the Medical Center it

3:40 looks as if the door is wide open seems

3:46 completely safe yeah this is not how

3:50 horror films start in any way shape or

3:55 form

3:56 in fact right next door the vines are

4:00 taking over look behind the glass

4:03 they're growing up from the earth trying

4:07 to escape the vines dicta to da da da da

4:10 ones even starting to crack oh my gosh

4:14 it's busting through 10:00 to turn pitch

4:17 it to the vines

4:52 yes you're in the shot you're in the

4:52 shot it's a video bomb you made it

5:36 pulled in this driveway I don't know if

5:36 I want to go any closer I'm not sure

5:37 someone lives here or not but I was

5:40 deceived by that Walmart logo written on

5:45 the side except one Elvis two L's wal

5:53 Walmart

5:53 I don't know if I've ever seen traffic

5:55 instructions quite like this before this

5:58 is speed limit sign slow to 45 whoa I

6:14 don't know how fast they were going but

6:14 I hope it was 45 we're down to slow in

6:19 front of this storage unit facility is a

6:22 big piece of granite petrified wood

6:30 on the ground and another one just

6:30 hanging from a chain its dangling in the

6:33 air like an old swing set that they

6:39 dismantled the portions of it just hung

6:42 the rock from it this tank sits in front

6:46 of the National Guard organization

7:05 that is a really bizarre piece of

7:05 playground equipment it's like a

7:08 spaceship pod from another planet but

7:11 made for made for a park a couple dogs

7:17 here garden this old store there's a

7:21 property owner behind it I'm assuming

7:24 that's their dogs

7:28 doing a good job they can carry this

7:31 place probably seen and have lots of

7:35 memories back when this was a thriving

7:39 storefront right

7:54 serious cloud formations

7:54 right there behind that water tower

8:04 off to the side of this route pulled

8:04 over because I noticed this signage that

8:08 states Oprah Winfrey Road I guess up

8:11 that hill is what they're referring to

8:13 this confirms that it is the Oprah that

8:16 we are thinking of On January 29 1954

8:19 she was born in a wood frame house

8:21 located on the site within walking

8:24 distance is the church where she made

8:26 her first appearance in an Easter

8:28 recital if I turn just this way just a

8:31 bit you can see that church right over

8:35 there

8:50 first faced an audience here when they

8:50 phrase it that way kind of sounds kind

8:52 of scary scared you know what

9:05 just a single yellow blinking light for

9:05 the traffic signal no red or green just

9:09 blinking yellow a very cozy looking City

9:14 Hall portions of the building built in

9:18 1890 according to the date stamp at the

9:20 top

9:27 don't worry I'm not stopping just

9:27 passing by continue along cows sometimes

9:33 you just got to pause and refresh I'm

9:36 saying that because it's it's right

9:38 there on the side of the wall but it's

9:40 also a very true statement it's not just

9:42 coke but also something called double

9:44 Cola here at the forefront of this

9:46 alleyway

9:47 you can still see where the gas pump was

9:49 and between those two pillars put

9:51 converted to a snow cone stand Memphis

9:54 Train is parked here but the name of the

9:56 town is Wynonna as documented there

10:00 just below the roofline on the train

10:02 station progressed a couple dozen miles

10:05 away standing under this epic tree and

10:09 Carrollton also a place that you can get

10:13 a bed and a coffin in the same spot in

10:17 the same store

10:33 back when a lot of these were painted on

10:33 people that have the wherewithal to put

10:35 a an inscription or a date in the bottom

10:39 corner kind of wish they did that we

10:40 know exactly when it was placed here but

10:44 this thing's this thing's old see how

10:46 faded it is

11:00 here in Greenwood a little RC Cola royal

11:00 crown action there that corner

11:04 check this out legendary bluesman robert

11:07 johnson not only played music on this

11:11 corner but also passed away right in

11:14 this very spot Wow

11:20 this very store

11:22 this was his neighborhood best I can

11:26 tell I love these old bridges this might

11:33 be the first one on this trip that I've

11:34 gone under or over

11:45 this place is a serious treasure trove

11:45 of classic vehicles

11:59 more than a handful behind that fence

11:59 line

12:20 pretty dang cool the birthplace of

12:20 Kermit the Frog here in Leland

12:28 there he is right here on the side of

12:28 this building this is a gift from Jane

12:32 Henson and that is a replica the uping

12:35 stain from the original Muppet movie and

12:37 it was made especially for us by the

12:40 people that made the sect of the month

12:42 maybe who built that set doesn't some of

12:44 the other things he did get the story

12:46 tells with John Hurt and labra David

13:01 kids from FAO Schwartz and they came

13:04 with the head and the directions to

13:06 dress them and whatnot and put their

13:08 faces out the way he wanted them to and

13:12 somebody told me those were from the
