0:28 corridor of

0:31 skulls and

0:35 horns and look at this guy

0:39 whoa creepy whatever that place was was

1:10 mind who knows looks like I got the

1:12 whole road to

1:14 myself I'm not complaining just just

1:17 stating a fact it's just me it's just me

1:21 right now on this road are you guys up

1:24 too e having a little

1:27 breakfast gross stopped off here at the

1:29 the very very tiny community of

1:33 Luckenbach the cemetery only has four

1:36 Graves look at the dates on the ones in

1:38 the back born in

1:40 1822 died in 1880 it is said that one of

1:44 the original residents of town

1:45 constructed an airplane like device

1:48 predating the right Brothers but they

1:50 stole my idea and got all the credit who

1:53 knows if that's true or not the town

1:54 originally started to diminish and

1:57 became a ghost town but current day it

1:59 is used as a predominantly country venue

2:03 and remember no biobs keep those biobs

2:07 out of here members of the Luckenbach

2:09 family and other German immigrants moved

2:11 here from Fredericksburg in the 1850s 11

2:14 mil away they settled along Grape Creek

2:17 and soon established a school for their

2:25 children and there's chickens out

2:25 here and the original post office still

2:28 sitting here

2:30 there appears to be a statue of the one

2:33 and only

2:35 Hondo Al Bundy he love that guy hello

2:44 there I'm getting flashbacks of that

2:44 crazy

2:45 Goose I'm just going to stand still I'm

2:48 just going to stand still pay no

2:50 attention to me pay no attention to me

2:52 please I'm going inside keep your

2:56 distance there's Hondo's Hooch holder

3:00 I don't think that's the hooch holder I

3:02 think that's the hooch holder a very

3:06 good assortment of bumper stickers some

3:08 relics of the past behind the counter

3:10 look at some of those products they

3:12 don't even make half of these anymore

3:15 pretty neat little gift shop and over

3:17 here is the original fire burning stove

3:20 you continue to the rear of the building

3:23 there's a bar outb all along the walls

3:25 are pictures

3:27 of people who have visited did here over

3:31 the

3:32 years currently people are hanging out

3:35 in here just enjoying the

3:38 day that's the way to do it just

3:42 relax just relax and enjoy the

3:45 day could learn learn a thing or two

3:49 from this cat I would imagine many a

3:52 good time have been had back here in

3:56 this area maybe even as recently as last

3:59 night there's a bunch of tents and

4:01 campers on the property this armadillo

4:04 is thinking to himself I don't know how

4:06 to play this stupid thing why did you

4:08 hand it to me I have no idea how to play

4:10 a musical instrument I like the way they

4:12 have repurposed all these old

4:16 buildings keeping them

4:19 going starting to get into a little

4:22 little bit of a hilly country randomly

4:24 turned onto this back road and look over

4:27 here to the left sign that says weener

4:31 dog

4:32 heaven I'm thinking maybe back there

4:34 where those trees have grown up used to

4:36 be a pet

4:39 cemetery that's the best

4:42 explanation I can come up with this is

4:45 the site of the original

4:48 Luckenbach school this is where all the

4:51 kids would do their

4:54 learning right here Herman toer wine was

4:58 the first teacher in 1905 there's also

5:01 this very rundown building next to it

5:03 and some

5:04 stables in the back it's always

5:07 fascinating that one day you could be in

5:09 the midst the

5:12 mecca of traffic and

5:15 people and then a few hours

5:17 later you're in the middle of nowhere no

5:20 one around not even sharing the road

5:23 with

5:27 anyone just just something to think

5:28 about this metal

5:30 Longhorn just chilling there is that a

5:32 longhorn or is that like a a demon

5:36 mule demon mule demon mule a a freaking

5:42 a right boys freaking a right boys we're

5:44 heading into the LBJ State Park

5:47 president Lyndon Baines Johnson says all

5:51 visitors must obtain a permit at the

5:55 headquarters I'm not really sure why you

5:56 need a permit it doesn't cost anything I

5:59 think it's just just so they can give

6:00 you some information and guide maps of

6:02 the property but nonetheless I have

6:04 obtained one in order to get across this

6:06 River at one point there was this very

6:11 bizarre

6:13 pathway that lynon Johnson had created

6:16 where he could drive

6:18 across here's him and Lady Bird Johnson

6:21 the first

6:22 lady I don't know what happened to this

6:25 area I'm not seeing that very

6:28 interesting Bridge

6:30 but man that's cool I want to cross over

6:32 that en Large Marge how come that still

6:35 doesn't exist I think I found it this is

6:38 freaking amazing there is a road created

6:42 with the intention of driving across a

6:47 waterfall it's not in use anymore you

6:49 can't drive across

6:51 it but

6:54 that I want that one day one day if I if

6:59 I ever have a home again I want that

7:02 that's awesome I know I'm getting overly

7:04 excited about that but mindblowing

7:07 what's up fellas did you see back there

7:10 that there is a waterfall that you can

7:12 drive a car well you can't drive a car

7:15 but you could walk or Stampede across

7:18 get a great photo

7:20 op yeah not not interested huh gosh

7:24 Party Poopers he spent a huge portion of

7:27 his life on this property from birth and

7:31 he even learned to read in that school

7:33 at the top of the hill the 36th

7:35 president of the United

7:37 States was born in that house over time

7:39 the house fell into major disrepair even

7:43 when he was alive he had it repurposed

7:45 and restructured to give it the look as

7:48 it did back when he was born that was

7:50 the day Lyon Bain Johnson discovered

7:53 America before the former first lady

7:56 passed away she gave a narration a tour

7:59 and I just realized by listening to that

8:01 that the original house was torn down

8:03 because it was so decrepit and they

8:05 built this one in its place and another

8:08 interesting fact is right across the way

8:11 here over this

8:13 hill is where her and her husband are

8:17 buried the original Cemetery in this

8:19 area is across the river there when one

8:20 of the first members of the Johnson

8:22 family passed away they could not get

8:24 across the water due to flooding so they

8:26 were buried here across the water thus

8:28 starting the son Family Cemetery many

8:31 generations were buried here in fact him

8:33 and ladybird would come out here with

8:34 the children very often to pay their

8:36 respects to the family and is even said

8:38 sometimes late at night he could be seen

8:40 sitting on these walls under these trees

8:43 doing a little contemplating and a

8:44 little thinking I even found an old

8:46 photo where the family was sitting right

8:48 here on top of the wall next to this

8:51 pillar while visiting the

8:54 cemetery that's incredible that is the

8:57 spot of presidency and only a few feet

9:01 from where that photo was taken is where

9:04 his final resting place is in the same

9:07 cemeter a flag has been placed in front

9:09 of his headstone and to the left of him

9:12 is his wife she lived till 2007 a very

9:15 long life he passed away in

9:18 1973 this is the backside the far end of

9:21 the property just so you can get kind of

9:24 a perspective on how big the ranch was

9:28 the tree line off in the distance that's

9:31 the river and the cemetery I was just at

9:33 you'll notice just along that grass

9:36 there is a paved area that is a Runway

9:41 it's where the presidential plane would

9:43 land and take off from and the property

9:45 is still used to this day as a ranch

9:49 they're just Roman free Roman free you

9:53 guys are now currently in the Vlog you

9:56 want to give a shout out to

9:57 anyone you want to give a shout out to

10:00 anyone in the

10:01 Vlog anybody you want to give a shout

10:04 out this building that is now The

10:06 Visitor Center used to be the airplane

10:08 hanger here's an old

10:11 photo of the president in front of that

10:14 same building and speaking of

10:21 airplanes there's his personal one right

10:21 there on board he's holding his beagle

10:24 the Beagle looks either very bored he's

10:27 trying to say this guy look up here very

10:29 surprised at what the Beagle is saying

10:32 it was known as the Air Force

10:35 1/2 get it Air Force 1/2 and I'm not

10:38 making that up either that's what it was

10:40 really called it looks as

10:42 if I'm allowed to go

10:49 inside kind of there's a GL there's a

10:49 wall here you can kind of go inside but

10:52 you can get a good shot through the

10:54 glass imagine being a fly on the

10:57 wall during the administration

11:01 oh the things you would

11:11 learn inside this room are some of the

11:11 automobiles that were used on

11:14 property these were his

11:22 cars oh check it out this is the one in

11:23 the photo of him driving in front of the

11:27 waterfall now that's

11:30 cool I don't know what my infatuation is

11:32 with that waterfall but I love it they

11:34 would gas up at these very fuel pumps

11:37 they call this the Texas White House

11:40 between Washington DC and here a lot of

11:42 the important presidential decisions

11:45 were made some in front of these oak

11:48 trees in the front yard true

12:00 story the shade of the tree in front of

12:00 you often served as a makeshift meeting

12:02 room for Johnson's

12:05 cabinet right there they just put a

12:08 table up and some chairs and lounged Out

12:12 Underneath the shade the president

12:13 shouted the brakes don't work the brakes

12:15 won't hold we're going in we're going

12:18 under the car splashed into the water I

12:21 started to get out just then the car

12:23 leveled and I realized we were in an an

12:26 car the president roared with laughter

12:29 as we put it along the lake then and

12:31 throughout that evening he teased me viy

12:34 did you see what Joe did he said he

12:36 didn't give a damn about his president

12:38 he just wanted to save his own skin and

12:40 get out of the car I'm pretty certain

12:42 the runway isn't used anymore not since

12:46 Air Force 1 half it's a pretty narrow

12:48 road another car was coming my

12:52 direction might be tough to squeeze both

12:57 vehicles on this

13:00 road crossing my fingers if that doesn't

13:04 happen Large
