TDW 1761 - The $1800 Car Ride - TheDailyWoo Archive

0:02 welcome everyone Adam the woo here

0:02 coming to you from the streets of

0:03 Savannah Georgia there is a permeating

0:05 smell as beautiful as this community is

0:08 there is quite the odor I will not go

0:11 into detail however you're in

0:15 luck cuz that would be disgusting it's

0:17 my second channel daily Vlog channel

0:19 it's the daily W and I find it very

0:22 fitting to start the Vlog here in

0:24 Chipawa Square where Tom Hank sat as the

0:27 character of forest gum life is like a

0:31 box of chocolates I thoroughly believe

0:34 in that philosophy I have been to this

0:35 area before but I feel like I have not

0:37 thoroughly investigated the encompassing

0:40 surroundings of the Town that's what I'm

0:43 here to do today by the way fun fact

0:45 2010 I did a tour with my friend Justin

0:47 Scar's band it was the first time I met

0:49 him the second show we had was in

0:52 Savannah and we hung out here at the

0:54 spot from Forest Gump so brings back

0:56 some memories and now to see some things

0:59 I've never seen seen before Oh check it

1:01 out this is Madison Square I wonder if I

1:06 wonder if that's their Garden I like the

1:08 look of this apartment building here

1:10 they're doing some construction on the

1:11 one across the street and I'm also

1:13 noticing that this is the very first

1:16 Girl Scout headquarters anywhere in the

1:19 US the house adjacent to this building

1:21 was the home of Juliet Gordon low at the

1:23 time she founded girl scouting in the

1:25 United States March 12th 1912 and there

1:29 she is on the side of of the wall an

1:30 homage a dedication to the woman without

1:33 her the wheels would not have been set

1:34 in motion and I would have never

1:36 consumed

1:45 thms in front of the police barracks

1:45 erected in

1:46 1870 are some classic old

1:50 Cruisers and this is pretty neat too

1:52 they give a comparison on the difference

1:54 between taking a cab versus a ride in a

1:58 police car and the price differential

2:01 and legal fees that you will have if you

2:04 get a DUI and of course now I guess Uber

2:07 or lifts could take the place of the by

2:10 the way that's not Leatherface over

2:11 there that's just some guys were oh look

2:13 at that

2:14 car that's cool in 1820 the great yellow

2:18 fever epidemic sweeped across this area

2:23 and the cemetery is the final resting

2:25 place of a lot of the people who passed

2:29 away

2:30 during that era quite a few tourists

2:32 wandering around if you look closely

2:34 there's a woman taking a picture of her

2:36 baby on a tombstone here lies William

2:39 Scarboro he was the promoter of the very

2:42 first trans Oceanic steam ship that's

2:46 pretty interesting and I like the way

2:48 they have

2:49 constructed sidewalk here which

2:52 obviously means gets a lot of

3:00 traffic You Don't See cemeteries with

3:00 very many sidewalks that's a rarity some

3:03 of them are fenced off While others are

3:06 left exposed these have been worn down

3:10 by the weather and this one has been

3:12 completely broken off the Moss hanging

3:14 from the trees definitely gives it a

3:16 little bit more Ambiance and I am a fan

3:19 of these historical markers it's nice to

3:22 know what you're looking at this is

3:23 slightly confusing however do I have to

3:26 ride a bike that has one of the huge

3:28 Wheels on the front in order to take

3:30 that route if so that would be pretty

3:33 freaking awesome the look and feel

3:35 around here is pretty amazing I love the

3:37 architecture there's a lot of places for

3:39 sale and for rent when you travel as

3:42 much as I do it's kind of a double-edged

3:43 sword cuz as much as I like constantly

3:46 moving and seeing new things I'm always

3:48 seeing things that interest me and

3:50 places that I would in the future want

3:52 to live it's very tempting sometimes

3:55 when I see places like that and I think

3:56 man I could see myself living here now

4:00 not in this exact location per se but

4:02 I'm just using this as an example you

4:05 catch my drift right on the corner of

4:07 Habersham and Conger Street sits an

4:10 unintentional Oddity when it comes to

4:13 constructing a home take a look at the

4:16 windows you'll notice they are

4:18 completely upside down this should be on

4:22 the top and that should be on the bottom

4:26 see way back in the day you could buy

4:28 houses out of the Sears catalog and

4:30 build them yourselves well the person

4:34 who built this didn't really follow the

4:36 instructions and now it is a focal point

4:41 of Tourism here in Savannah but I got to

4:44 say it is a pretty sweet

5:00 pad historic steps use

5:00 at your own risk wow look at the

5:03 cobblestone streets also have I

5:04 mentioned how much I like this place by

5:06 the way check out this huge gargantuan

5:09 boat caring down the river hauling

5:12 massive boxes that would be fit on top

5:15 of an

5:17 18wheeler wonder what's in this you know

5:19 what's funny I really do have an Uncle B

5:24 there is a lot of debris in the water

5:27 however and another ship is making its

5:30 way into frame starting in the late

5:32 1800s there was a woman by the name of

5:34 Florence Martis and she would wave at

5:37 every ship on a daily basis as they went

5:41 by and to pay honor to her they have

5:44 created the statue known as Savannah's

5:48 waving girl now don't quote me on this

5:51 but I think there is no clear-cut reason

5:53 on why she did that and there's also no

5:55 name for her

5:58 dog I wonder why check a look at this

6:00 guy's beard that is a Scruff wagon of

6:05 Epic Pur oh I once knew a man with a

6:09 wooden leg named Smith have you heard

6:11 that one have you ever heard that one oh

6:14 you have huh the Georgia

6:16 Queen I do love myself some fairy

6:20 boats this one's awesome and Ride Along

6:23 the Riverwalk is this globe that is

6:26 referred to as cracked Earth

6:58 here a lot of historic ships have sailed

6:58 out of port here including the SS

7:02 Savannah and I was reading this sign the

7:04 first steamship to cross the Atlantic

7:07 Ocean was the USS Savannah on May 22nd

7:11 1819 27 Days Later reached Liverpool and

7:15 that

7:16 anniversary is the day they celebrate

7:19 National Maritime day I never knew that

7:22 before that's that's pretty fascinating

7:24 plenty of Transportation options you

7:27 could take a carriage tour you could

7:29 take a trolley or you could just walk

7:32 like I'm doing I did Park my RV outside

7:34 Town however and took an Uber to this

7:36 area because parking is not the best for

7:38 a large vehicle like that if you want a

7:40 free Uber ride my coupon code is Uber

7:42 atw uee use that you get a free ride not

7:46 a bad deal something up on the second

7:48 level here take a look behind the glass

7:53 you will see a statue and if you are

7:55 familiar with the book or the movie

7:57 Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

8:00 that is

8:02 pictured prominently on both of

8:07 them pretty

8:09 cool used to be in a local Cemetery well

8:12 that woman's taking a photo that's not

8:15 allowed the Jepson Center for the Arts

8:17 has a very strict no photography rule

8:19 when it comes to the bird girl which is

8:22 what that statue's name refers to that

8:24 lady she was taking a photo if I was to

8:26 do that they would probably ban me now I

8:30 am very familiar with McDonald's

8:33 drive-throughs I've never seen a

8:35 McDonald's walk through there's a walk

8:39 up window here but the main

8:42 entrance into the actual

8:45 McDonald's is around the front

8:50 here it's not a

8:53 drive-thru it's a walk through I've

8:56 never seen that before have you Johnny

8:58 Mercer wrote over 1,400 songs the most

9:02 famous being Moon River and he lived

9:06 here in town and would hang around just

9:09 reading what are you reading

9:11 there there's nothing on the paper what

9:14 are you up to Johnny what's in your mind

9:17 seriously there's nothing written on the

9:19 paper and while it seems normal when I

9:21 am discussing subjects and talking to

9:23 statu to you to onlookers in the general

9:27 public they look at me and they think

9:30 what the heck is that guy

9:32 doing these steps remind

9:35 me of The

9:37 Exorcist in

9:39 fact this area of Georgia kind of

9:41 reminds me of Georgetown which is just

9:44 outside Washington

9:50 DC it's like a Eerie similarity as far

9:50 as architecture goes I've done quite a

9:52 bit of walking today and I've worked up

9:54 quite an

9:55 appetite got to get some food you know

9:57 where I can get a bite to eat around

9:59 here

10:00 pigeon point me in the right

10:03 direction steer me to some delicious

10:06 viddles I think I found my spot they

10:09 have Chicago style beef hot dogs I'm

10:12 sold there's just something about these

10:14 things that I cannot refuse they put a

10:17 little bit more relish on this one than

10:20 I have in past areas I guess that's

10:22 Savannah's way of making a beautiful

10:26 Chicago

10:27 dog a little mude music for the

10:31 experience as

10:39 well oh my

10:50 God so good

10:59 you

11:43 that whole time I thought the wheel

11:43 mechanism on the back propelled the boat

11:46 but alas it was just a prop check out

11:48 that old movie theater there

11:50 1921 the Lucas and there's another one

11:54 just around the corner called the scad

11:56 or the SC a these are the types of one I

11:59 really love because of the old neon

12:03 reminds me of something on Hollywood

12:05 Boulevard just the architecture and the

12:08 colors only thing it's missing is a

12:10 decorative entryway which they probably

12:12 had at some point but it's been retied

12:15 I'm sitting in this beautiful Town

12:17 Square on this

12:19 bench and directly in front of me is a

12:23 fountain and I'm getting

12:25 flashbacks of when I lived in California

12:28 because this reminds me a

12:30 lot of the orange circle where I did

12:34 many of Vlogs was only about a half a

12:36 mile from the home that I was renting

12:39 out

12:46 there ah memories it's amazing how one

12:46 place completely different than the

12:50 place you were before can remind you of

12:54 said

12:56 Place life's funny that way your brain

12:59 is funny that way things always change

13:02 but me what is what is that girl

13:04 carrying back there but memories always

13:07 remain life truly is like a box of

13:12 chocolates he was

13:14 right

13:16 Vlog over oh dang that's not fun
