0:13
paulie's
0:15
island the community
0:17
of paulie's island the oldest seaside
0:20
resort
0:21
in america

according to the sign
0:24
the hammock
0:26
is their mascot now it's not raining
0:28
the trees
0:30
are providing the precipitation because
0:32
the ice is melting is currently 34
0:34
degrees
0:35
and i am thankful is going to get up to
0:37
into the low 40s around 40 degrees today
0:40
which in comparison to how it's been the
0:42
last couple of days is quite warm now
0:45
take a peek behind this sign there is an
0:47
abandoned homestead or store
0:50
structure
0:51
back here in the woods now i don't want
0:53
to go too close because this ice is
0:55
falling from the limbs
0:57
of the tree
0:58
when i mentioned i was in this area
1:01
quite a cumulative amount of people said
1:04
you need to go over to paulie's island
1:06
and talk about and show and witness with
1:08
your own eyes
1:10
the urban legends
1:12
of south of myrtle beach
1:14
south carolina it's probably about a
1:16
half hour south
1:17
give or take
1:23
give it give or take a mile we flip this
1:23
around
1:24
i'm inviting you
1:27
so i'm excited about this something new
1:29
learn something new every day
1:31
urban legends
1:32
i don't do much of those but today i am
1:34
join me i'm just also going to kind of
1:36
go around the island
1:37
join me
1:39
shall you it is
1:41
that ice is melting good
1:44
melted real good
1:47
a very tiny piping hot caffeinated
1:49
beverage they were out of cream
1:52
a little bit of sugar but not no cream
1:53
in there
1:54
this is the oldest hardware store
1:58
in town known as paulie's island supply
2:01
and that's where i got
2:03
the coffee
2:04
i'm going down the north causeway
2:06
boulevard or north causeway road
2:09
to the first spot
2:10
this is only probably i don't know eight
2:12
ounces
2:13
it's a good start just crossed the
2:15
linwood altman causeway
2:18
now there's a sign before you go over
2:20
the bridge that i started the intro at
2:22
and there's also this one that says it's
2:24
the town limit
2:26
also the little cup of coffee i got
2:28
there was no charge they just gave it to
2:29
me complimentary because it is a
2:31
hardware store even though they have
2:32
fuel
2:34
and sell hardware they do have a coffee
2:36
machine
2:38
but i think it's just for i think it's
2:39
just for customers but i went and said
2:41
you got coffee that said here you go
2:42
here's a little cup of coffee
2:45
thanks to the hardware store here in
2:46
paulie's island notice how long these
2:49
docks are they go way out
2:51
like a couple hundred yards out there
2:59
into the water this is not the ocean
2:59
side the ocean side is on the opposite
3:01
i'm looking out the
3:03
passenger side window without the
3:05
driver's side window or homes and each
3:07
one of the homes
3:08
has one of these hundred yard docks it's
3:11
like the size of a football field
3:13
stretching way out there into the marsh
3:16
and even though it is a sunday
3:18
as i'm recording this
3:20
the paulie's island house of worship
3:23
must not be utilized by a congregation
3:25
anymore this is a fantastic structure
3:28
right here
3:30
on the water is elevated by the wood
3:32
planks that hold it up
3:34
in 1946 the georgetown ministerial
3:38
association resolved to erect a place
3:41
for worship for summer residents
3:43
so obviously there's some snow birds
3:45
from up north that live down here in the
3:47
summer well that wouldn't make any sense
3:49
the snow bird would be up here in the
3:50
winter scratch what i said
3:52
partnering with the local evangelistic
3:55
club to secure a building
3:57
and it was built and incorporated in
3:59
1947
4:02
and that is what
4:03
this is and it does say continued on the
4:05
other side
4:06
so just kind of browsing the other side
4:10
it has survived there's not a lot on
4:11
this island a lot of the houses have
4:14
been destroyed in a couple of major
4:16
hurricanes but this one has
4:19
survived
4:21
hazel which was in 1954 and then hugo
4:25
which packed quite a punch back in 89
4:28
to this area
4:31
but this managed
4:33
to still stand after both of those
4:36
storms this is not right on the water
4:39
this is on the road that runs
4:41
between the beach
4:43
behind the houses that are right on the
4:44
beach so it's just directly behind
4:47
behind those houses so the beach would
4:49
be as i just turned around to look at
4:50
these homes those are the beach houses
4:53
you can kind of even hear the roar of
4:55
the waves so
4:56
right on the other side of that berm of
4:58
those homes is the wall is the ocean
4:59
drove about a block down the way in fact
5:02
you can see
5:03
that structure along the water that was
5:04
just out down there about a block or so
5:07
away but under this tree also i should
5:09
point out this tree looks like something
5:11
you'd see in a tim burton film
5:14
very unique looking tree that is raining
5:16
down ice
5:18
melted ice from its branches
5:20
just standing underneath there you get
5:22
plunked on the noggin
5:24
by some ice cold
5:27
water in the form of ice
5:29
austin causeway was named after robert
5:32
francis withers alston
5:36
it's an unusual it's a lengthy name and
5:38
with it i don't think i've ever met any
5:39
name named withers
5:41
but also there was a bank
5:43
on the corner of the mainland
5:46
that alston owned
5:48
and continued around the other side
5:50
possibly
5:52
nope still says the same thing on the
5:54
other side the causeway
5:56
and continuous
5:58
con
5:59
the causeway and
6:01
contiguous property i'm never i'm not
6:04
familiar with that word remained in the
6:06
austin family until 1901
6:15
continuous the causeway and continuous
6:16
property i keep wanting to say
6:17
continuous another very iconic
6:19
historical structure that still stands
6:22
un damaged by the hurricanes is the
6:25
pelican inn
6:26
a source of many urban legends and a
6:29
couple of ghost
6:30
stories
6:32
if you will
6:33
anyone from this area in the myrtle
6:35
beach area especially down here on
6:36
pawley's island
6:37
will tell you the tale of the gray man
6:41
now there's a lot of different opinions
6:43
and stories and hearsay and rumors
6:46
about who the gray man is
6:50
that wanders the beach warning its
6:52
residents
6:53
here on pawley's island
6:55
that there is a storm rolling through
6:57
but one of those said
6:59
legends
7:01
was someone here at the pelican inn
7:04
a couple different stories
7:06
but one of the main ones
7:08
stated it was at the pelican inn
7:11
the gray man
7:12
been a lot of newscasts on it over the
7:14
years
7:15
hugo i think was the big one
7:17
where there was an elderly couple who
7:19
was warned by the grey man as the story
7:21
goes
7:23
and
7:25
their home was saved
7:27
and there's another story of other
7:28
residents that was told to leave i'm
7:30
gonna go over there and read this site
7:31
in a minute
7:32
they were told to leave and they did
7:34
and it saved their life thanks to the
7:36
great man and some say the gray man
7:38
still wanders along the beach to this
7:40
day
7:42
some say he started from here
7:45
his roots go back to the pelican and
7:47
some say he is a pirate
7:49
his face has never been seen just the
7:50
shadow
8:03
the pcj westinghouse westin house the
8:05
the land was obtained back here in 1844
8:07
and in 1858
8:10
the beach house residence was built
8:13
property was sold in 1864
8:15
to the atlantic
8:17
coastal lumber company
8:19
after an ownership change years later
8:21
the pelican the house was named the
8:26
it's like a pirate house
8:29
you just picture pirates back in the day
8:31
staying here
8:34
are
8:35
you imagining
8:37
the pirates that were here there's
8:38
another unique tree over there
8:41
it's also another story of
8:43
a couple of phantom dogs
8:46
that can still to this day be seen
8:48
wandering around the beaches that used
8:50
to live here
8:52
with a lady that lived here at the
8:53
pelican and
8:55
hearsay of course as the story goes
8:59
the dogs were wandering along the
9:00
shoreline
9:02
and there was a youth out walking around
9:04
went out into the water
9:07
fell on some hard time started to drown
9:09
the dog one of the dogs went into the
9:11
water
9:12
saved
9:17
the youth pulled to the shore
9:17
but the dog
9:19
unfortunately got a lot of water
9:21
inside its lungs
9:24
passed away
9:25
it is said that the dogs can still be
9:27
seen
9:29
these are all interesting stories who
9:30
knows if there's any truth behind it
9:32
these are just legends
9:34
that evolve over years that are told by
9:36
one person to the next and they just
9:37
become folklore
9:40
but those dogs resided here with their
9:42
owner
9:44
and can still be seen wondering they're
9:46
not the gray man's dogs
9:48
totally different story
9:51
but those are the two stories from the
9:52
pelican end
9:53
i'm gonna go show the beach
9:56
and then i'm gonna go to another spot
9:57
that's really really fascinating story
9:59
as well i was just doing a little more
10:01
research before pulling away here
10:04
i did not realize that paulie's island
10:07
was where the rope hammock was invented
10:09
and created
10:11
that's why their logo is the hammock
10:16
going away from the pelican i didn't see
10:17
any pelicans at the pelicans in but some
10:19
fascinating stories
10:21
for sure fascinating stories one of the
10:23
other stories about who the gray man
10:25
could be back in 1822 was a gentleman
10:29
traveling along with his fiancee
10:32
in this area and got stuck in a
10:34
quicksand-like
10:36
substance
10:44
it was soon after that that the gray man
10:44
first appeared here along the beach
10:47
warning
10:49
of storms
10:54
and that continued on up until
10:54
hurricane hugo
10:56
and then after hurricane hugo
10:59
he was saying the last time he was seen
11:00
was in
11:02
2018 hurricane florence
11:06
the gray man could be seen through here
11:09
and reading a little more on i never
11:11
heard of the gray man until this week
11:12
when i was in the area
11:14
and a few
11:15
people mentioned
11:17
the legend so i kind of been looking it
11:19
up
11:20
learning something new
11:23
and some see him he has this he has no
11:25
legs so no one's seen his face and no
11:28
one's seen his leg now there is
11:30
there's someone walking along the beach
11:34
i do not think that is an apparition
11:36
that is a real person
11:38
that is not the gray man but there are
11:40
some birds going by
12:00
so just picture seeing
12:00
a ghostly like
12:02
creature walking down
12:04
the beach that is that is a human that
12:06
is not the gray man
12:12
there's a storm a brewing get off the
12:12
beach
12:16
and then you leave
12:16
your life is spared thanks to the great
12:18
man that's that's the legend
12:20
it is beautiful out here feels really
12:22
good it doesn't even feel like it's low
12:24
40s feels way warmer than that probably
12:26
because the last couple of days it's
12:28
been in the mid-20s and the wind chill
12:30
it's not a lot of wind i'm standing
12:32
right here on the beach
12:33
very pleasant i could probably take this
12:35
off and it'd still be bearable for a few
12:37
moments not going to but it feels good
12:39
out here
12:41
no sign of the grey mat
12:57
means there's no storms
12:57
the storm has passed
13:02
okay this is interesting
13:02
one thing i like about the little
13:03
historical district here
13:05
is there's plenty of information
13:08
so the austin house
13:11
over here
13:13
now according to this and 1989 was
13:16
raised up on higher wooden beams
13:19
after hurricane hugo
13:22
struck south carolina
13:23
but the house remained in the family
13:25
until 1901
13:34
it was built in 1846 granted the marsh
13:34
behind it to him in 1847
13:37
so this would be the marsh
13:40
looks like there's been quite a few
13:41
renovations to this
13:45
being a house that's a hundred and 150
13:48
50 years old
13:50
but they said it was raised up maybe
13:52
when they raised it up they fixed it up
13:53
a little bit or possibly this is a new
13:55
house
13:56
the sign was placed here in 1998 and a
13:59
lot could change since 98 but
14:01
it is neat they have these all along
14:02
this stretch of road now this structure
14:04
definitely looks like it's seen some
14:06
years and survived some storms a lot of
14:08
new homes
14:10
but this one
14:11
yeah
14:14
that looks like one of the originals
14:22
the newer town hall is right over there
14:22
right before you go back over the
14:23
causeway to the mainland
14:26
but this town hall
14:28
looks to be the original
14:31
called the shack
14:39
got some seats over there
14:39
could look out across the marsh oh there
14:41
is a bird
14:44
out in the marsh
14:46
just ice falling all from the tree still
14:49
there's a bird right there hello bird
14:52
how's it going
15:07
i have found an artistic representation
15:07
of you bird
15:08
or at least someone that is kin to you
15:11
right here along this wall
15:30
this painting is pretty cool
15:30
check out this foul got himself a fish
15:33
right there that fish has a startled
15:35
look on his face like
15:37
oh this is not good for me says the fish
15:41
not good for me
15:51
oh yeah that's some cold water dripping
15:51
off that roof i melted ice not only
15:53
called the shack but also referred to as
15:55
the jack land building
15:59
see right up here
16:01
jack bland building
16:07
it was a real estate office
16:07
and the mayor okay the mayor is the
16:10
namesake
16:11
the original building was a real estate
16:13
office by mayor of mayor jack bland
16:18
and they remodeled the building
16:19
officially a town hall and information
16:21
center the late mayor bland
16:23
affectionately referred to it as
16:26
the shack
16:38
this sign was moved from the old post
16:38
office on highway 17.
16:46
i am not knowledgeable about every
16:46
subject in fact a lot of stuff i just
16:48
learn
16:49
when i arrive so these are very helpful
16:52
so i would have never known it was moved
16:54
from the old postal in fact some of the
16:56
stuff you can't even find when you like
16:57
do a search online so it's good that
17:00
they have some stuff like this
17:01
especially some of these small
17:02
communities this island located a half
17:05
mile east
17:07
was used by plantation householders who
17:10
lived on the shore
17:12
from may
17:13
to november to escape malaria
17:15
interesting
17:17
a number of the houses built in 1850 and
17:19
an academy
17:21
and a rectory
17:22
all saints parish remain a lot of unique
17:26
buildings through here
17:27
like this little one that leads out onto
17:29
like a overlook of a dock corner of
17:32
myrtle ave and 2nd street
17:35
someone going by with a boat
17:38
you kind of need to live in this little
17:39
area peaceful
18:00
a lot of the residents that
18:00
helped build this new new building the
18:02
new
18:03
town center
18:05
are down here on the brick but
18:07
i noticed these bird houses i wanted to
18:09
show
18:11
that was a turtle down here not a real
18:14
turtle obviously but just turtle down
18:16
there
18:19
i saw these as i was driving by i
18:19
thought that's pretty neat
18:21
some little bird houses there's a
18:24
church over here someone walking their
18:26
dog going by it's a church a barn
18:30

18:44
in these
19:01
oh this is neat
19:01
paulie's rocks
19:04

20:07
over here to see this
20:21
once again it is not raining that is
20:21
just
20:22
ice melting from the trees i don't know
20:23
why i keep reiterating that but
20:27
you get underneath these trees
20:29
you will get wet
20:31
i've driven back over the causeway so
20:33
technically back on the mainland now
20:35
still in paulie's island
20:37
the town of pawley's island
20:39

20:48
this road why is this caught why is this
20:50

20:53
is down here

21:01
all the ice melting it is just
21:03
down pouring down that trail
21:15
it's like a storm
21:15
but there's no clouds out no clouds in
21:17
the sky that's different
21:28
okay i'm going to drive down this trail
21:28

21:30
feels like we're in a car wash doesn't
21:32
it bigger foot
21:44
it's like hail or sleep
21:44
oh there goes the ice chunk
21:57
there's a rusted out gate right here
21:57
and i see some steam
22:02
is that steam going up from the ground
22:02
over there
22:12
oh what the heck
22:12
that says the hot
22:26
i just heard a crow make a noise that's
22:26
called that says the haunt
22:28
what am i getting myself into
23:03
where's that steam coming from
23:03
see all that steam and that it's like
23:05
off of the ground that's different
23:09
all right i don't know if this this
23:10
might be a private residence back in
23:12
here different see a headstone over here
23:14
too
23:16
and this could have been left over from
23:17
halloween
23:19
but
23:20
that entryway looks permanent
23:25
and this headstone looks like it could
23:25
be a prop but those other ones
23:28
look pretty real
23:29
this is a residential neighborhood
23:31
there's like four or five houses around
23:32
me
23:36
weird
23:36
huh
23:41
all right i'm going to circle around
23:41
this cul-de-sac and head back out just
23:43
out of curiosity i looked up the house
23:45
numbers through here
23:46
and the house numbers do coincide you
23:48
can search the house number on haunted
23:51
trails in south carolina
23:54
and paulie's island
23:56
that is so interesting
24:02
it is a real road not a themed thing
24:02
for halloween or any other time of the
24:04
time of the year this is a
24:07
this is an all-year road
24:21
so unusual
24:21
maybe i'm just kind of
24:23
over blowing it out of proportion but
24:34
keep in mind there are no clouds out
24:34
there is not a cloud in the sky right
24:36
now this is all from the trees
24:39
the haunted trail
24:42
paulie's island
24:45
okay that was an experience
24:47
i am easily entertained in case you
24:49
didn't notice and it's located right
24:50
next to the hammock shops village
24:53
and it says right there
25:02
home of the original pawleys island rope
25:02
hammock established 1938 the hammock
25:06
was invented here
25:11
they also have
25:13
sweater weather styles
25:15
for you at affordable
25:17
at affordables apparel
25:20
sweater weather styles for you
25:21
at affordables
25:23
apparel directly in front of me is the
25:25
original hammock shop
25:27
that's the one the original
25:30
still open to this day if you want to
25:31
buy i'm not i'm not in the market for a
25:33
hammock but there's a couple right there
25:35
on the porch
25:37
there's a sign right there that says the
25:38
original hammock shop home of
25:42
rope hammock
25:44
once again it's not raining it's melting
25:47
ice
25:52
from the trees
25:52
drove about a mile or so mile or two
25:55
away i want to show what sign used to be
25:57
standing
25:58
right where i am it has been removed
26:02
you can see my shadow don't be don't be
26:04
frightened
26:05
just my shadow
26:07
and that sign used to
26:10
sit right here
26:11
and the wooden side has been replaced by
26:13
this metal one but even the riding has
26:15
been
26:16
taken off of there
26:18
this is the all saints parish dating
26:20
back to 1767.
26:27
and there is a new church building just
26:27
across the road from me just off to the
26:29
side there's just
26:31
finished for the day because it is a
26:32
sunday as a recording of this
26:35
created out of prince george
26:39
winion parish in 1767.
26:45
continued on the other side
26:45
i don't know if i'd go through these
26:47
the moss here
26:49
to see
26:51
there it is
26:53
sanctuary was built in 1847
26:55
but burned in 1915 and was replaced in
26:58
1917
27:00
by a church replicated the design of a
27:02
smaller scale
27:03
listed on the national register of
27:05
historic places in 1998
27:07
current sanctuary which is right across
27:09
the road a much bigger building
27:12
a few years after that
27:14
now it does say open 8 a.m till dark and
27:17
it is between those hours so i should be
27:20
able to walk in
27:22
let's just see how this opens
27:25
ah there it is very simple not even a
27:27
latch
27:28
so this is the same riding that used to
27:30
be on that sign right there
27:33
i am looking for the resting place
27:36
well that is that is a subject that
27:39
some agree and some disagree on
27:41
of alice flag
27:45
somewhere in
27:46
here a
27:50
urban legend
27:52
so much in fact
27:53
that i had to come check it and see it
27:54
with my own eyes
28:01
now here's another alice this is the
28:01
middle name
28:03
not the alice i am looking for but this
28:04
is another one
28:06
sacred to the memory of
28:09
bentley
28:10
and alice weston
28:13
so it was a couple
28:22
with the road going by over there not
28:22
far off the property
28:25
just to show exactly where alice
28:28
is something
28:31
i will kind of spin around now the story
28:33
of alice
28:35
is an interesting one
28:37
alice flag fell in love like many do
28:41
but her family did not agree with who
28:43
she was
28:45
who she wanted to be with
28:47
in fact her brother was a doctor now i'm
28:49
just going off of what i have recently
28:51
read and learned
28:58
i'm not a historian by any means
28:58
but i would say as far as this area of
29:00
south carolina goes
29:03
probably one of the the biggest urban
29:05
legends or at least
29:06
stories folklore stories
29:10
that get passed on from generation to
29:11
generation
29:13
alice's brother was a doctor and alice
29:16
fell sick
29:17
and even though
29:18
her brother said
29:20
that her and her fa her whole family but
29:22
her brother especially did not want her
29:25
with the gentleman that she was courting
29:32
and she kept it a secret the ring
29:32
that he gave her the love of her life
29:35
she kept around her neck hidden
29:38
out of sight underneath her clothes
29:41
and when she became sick when her
29:43
brother started taking care of her he
29:45
discovered you know by doing
29:48
medical check-up on her
29:54
that the ring still existed her the ring
29:54
did exist and then she had still kept
29:56
seeing
29:58
who he frowned upon
30:04
so as the story goes he stopped taking
30:04
care of her he did not want to
30:06
continue
30:08
watching after his very ill sister
30:12
and because of that she passed away
30:15
there's a lot more to it obviously
30:18
but that's the cliff notes version if
30:20
you will
30:26
it's also said out of spite
30:26
when she was laid here
30:29
she was disowned by the family
30:32
and the headstone does not even bear her
30:34
last name just alice
30:37
and whatever you believe no matter what
30:39
you believe
30:44
you have to find it interesting
30:44
that a storm has blown down this tree
30:48
upon
30:49
what some say is her resting spot
30:53
coincidence
30:54
could be
30:55
most likely is
30:57
but when i walked over here and
30:58
discovered that this tree
31:00
has fallen completely
31:03
part of the branch has fallen right
31:05
between her
31:07
and her brother
31:08
the doctor
31:11
who you could thank for her demise for
31:13
not
31:14
taking care of her out of jealousy for
31:16
the man she was dating
31:18
it's very interesting that this tree
31:20
branch
31:22
huge tree branch has fallen
31:24
from the side
31:26
split almost as if it was struck by
31:28
lightning it wasn't
31:29
but you could almost picture it being
31:30
struck by lightning
31:37
right down and fallen
31:37
onto her
31:38
brother's grave
31:44
supernatural
31:44
anger all coincidence but i found it
31:48
oddly fascinating based on the story do
31:50
your own research this has been covered
31:53
by quite a few people
31:58
but definitely an interesting legend
31:58
here
32:00
now you'll also notice that there's not
32:02
a lot of grass around the side
32:05
of where alice is
32:06
that's because there is another myth
32:09
that if you run around a dozen times 13
32:12
times something like that i can't
32:13
remember the number but if you run
32:15
around this
32:17
she will appear i don't know if that's
32:19
true i'm not gonna run around this
32:21
it's wet
32:23
and it's not really my thing i'm not
32:24
gonna i'm not gonna run around and hope
32:26
to see alice but
32:32
you can see her last name is not on
32:32
there i've also heard that sometimes
32:34
people will place rings i've seen photos
32:36
online of people leave flowers here and
32:39
they leave rings obviously it's not
32:40
really the best weather inclement
32:42
weather to be doing that but because her
32:44
brother who is laid over here
32:48
when he found out
32:50
and stopped
32:51
taking care of her medically
32:54
took the ring ripped it off of her neck
32:56
and threw the ring out
32:59
either into a river into the the ocean
33:02
into a swampy section and the ring was
33:04
never found again
33:09
so those that want to pay their respects
33:09
to
33:10
the legacy of alice
33:12
will leave the ring
33:15
rings here for her
33:17
right now there's no rings left
33:20
very interesting once again
33:22
plenty of info out there
33:27
if i just wanted to see this i just
33:28
wanted to see this with my own eyes the
33:30
tree did not fall on any other areas
33:32
except right
33:35
where her brother is
33:41
interesting in fact this is the entire
33:46
family plot of flag and you'll see that
33:49
all of them bear a last name
33:51
f-l-a-g-g
33:57
this would be the family plot
33:57
the only one that does not bear
34:00
the last name on the family plot
34:07
is alice
34:09
allard
34:11
bellen flag
34:14
was the doctor her brother here
34:24
and this ice storm has taken down this
34:26
and now
34:34
he has this branch laying across
34:34
so you couldn't even run around that
34:37
a dozen or more times
34:38
if you wanted to do the circle around
34:40
and try that experiment now another
34:43
interesting thing after i was
34:44
researching a little bit more
34:46
it has been debunked if you will
34:49
it has said that it is not true as with
34:51
anything
34:52
that over time
34:54
you know becomes like a legend
34:57
you'll have those that say that's not
34:59
true and they say
35:00
that this is a different family member
35:02
this is not the alice that everyone says
35:05
it is
35:07
so it's up for interpretation on
35:10
what you believe
35:11
on the stories here in south carolina
35:13
just south of myrtle beach south
35:15
carolina
35:38
i don't know what the proper etiquette
35:38
would be
35:42
water's falling on my head it's cold but
35:42
the hoodie up
35:45
should i move the branch or leave the
35:54
it's a pretty big branch i'll probably
35:54
wait for a caretaker to move it plus
35:58
i don't know if it's my decision to move
36:00
this
36:01
especially says it's now laying on the
36:05
with the sister here
36:06
that he wronged
36:12
yeah i'm just going to leave this i'm
36:12
going to leave this big tree branch here
36:14
which is the size of a small tree of its
36:16
own
36:27
i thought about moving it but more i
36:27
think about it
36:28
that's not for me to do
37:04
i'll see the next video
37:04
the vlog
