welcome everyone Adam the woo here today
0:03
under the bridge downtown is where I'm
0:07
starting this Vlog I'm doing a little
0:11
rocking because I am in Little Rock see
0:17
what I did there it's my second channel
0:18
daily Vlog channel it's it all started
0:22
with that Little Rock no kidding it's
0:24
the daily woo this was the very first
0:28
rock scene by French Explorer Bernard De
0:32
La Harpe on his voyage from the mouth of
0:34
the Mississippi in
0:37
1722 ooo it is a cold crisp
0:41
37° I like it my favorite type of
0:43
weather is definitely hoodie weather and
0:46
I want to check out a piece of history
0:49
in this Cemetery
0:51
but I don't think my RV will fit through
0:53
there should be able to get in this way
0:58
hopefully well Maybe
1:00
not maybe
1:10
not fail fail I parked way around the
1:10
backside thought maybe I could take a
1:12
shortcut but got to go back to that
1:14
front gate the way this cemetery is set
1:16
up is there are unpaved only walkable
1:19
grass rows almost like streets they have
1:23
their own names that one is Maple and
1:27
the one I'm looking for is right here
1:29
and Elm Street seems to be a lot of
1:33
those in this neck of the woods Texas
1:37
and
1:38
Arkansas a lot of Elm streets even
1:40
though this technically isn't a street
1:42
it's just a row and I think this might
1:44
be
1:49
it this
1:49
pillar here lies the
1:51
remains of David O
1:54
DOD better known as the
1:58
Arkansas boy
2:01
martyr of the
2:08
Confederacy his final resting place
2:08
right there on January 8th 1864 he was
2:11
put to death for being a spy and his
2:14
body was placed there for nearly half a
2:17
century it was in an unmarked
2:20
grave until 1913 the daughters of the
2:24
Confederacy built that Monument for him
2:26
but the interesting footnote about this
2:28
is he wasn't even of legal age yet he
2:31
was only 17 which doesn't really
2:34
constitute childhood by any means but
2:37
definitely not full-fledged adulthood I
2:40
am not the same person I was when I was
2:42
17 and for that reason he has been given
2:46
the Eternal name the boy martyr of the
2:50
Confederacy just about a mile down the
2:53
road is where that very horrific event
2:57
took place it is said that over 6,000
2:59
people showed up to watch it even though
3:02
it was freezing cold outside and the
3:04
Arkansas River was completely frozen
3:07
over people wanted to see it happen I
3:09
don't know I don't know if I can watch
3:12
that personally that's
3:14
him
3:23
spot right there there are no
3:23
photographs of the account but it is
3:25
said that he was sitting on top of his
3:28
casket being head like a procession to
3:31
the spot and he had to supply his own
3:34
blindfold they didn't even give him a
3:36
blindfold so he brought his
3:39
own
3:41
that that's crazy nothing really growing
3:44
this time of year in these
3:47
Planters but check this out this was
3:50
also the spot of the first human
3:56
dissection in
3:57
Arkansas November 18 74 random but
4:01
interesting piece of medical history
4:04
right there oh downtown Little Rock did
4:08
you ever think that you would grow from
4:10
a tiny Pebble or a boulder well I guess
4:14
neither of those things this gu peeing
4:16
over
4:17
there oh Little Rock you don't
4:20
disappoint you might remember a sitcom
4:22
in the mid to8 80s through the early
4:25
'90s called Designing Women that was
4:28
based around
4:30
Atlanta
4:36
Georgia spoiler alert it wasn't in
4:36
Atlanta in fact the cast of characters
4:38
that included Delta Burke Annie pots and
4:41
even Jan Hooks that's right the same
4:44
lady that disappointed Peewee that there
4:46
was no basement at the alamoo their base
4:49
of operations was right here and they
4:54
did not film inside they only Ed the
4:56
exteriors but this is it and if you own
4:58
the DVD sets their faces can be seen
5:02
photoshopped Above This
5:06
facade true story with its rod iron
5:09
fence its elegant porch and
5:14
mysteriously beautiful
5:17
Windows this is a pretty awesome house
5:20
built in 1881 not really sure what's
5:23
going on here if there is some
5:26
purposeful symbolism behind this or just
5:30
an accident that happened on its own
5:33
this is around the backside of the house
5:37
the angle you don't see on tele behind
5:40
the scenes this is pretty cool and if
5:44
you listen very closely you might be
5:47
able to hear the faint sounds of Ray
5:51
Charles inside there on his piano with
5:55
the cast sitting next to him
6:02
Georgia oh
6:03
Georgia Georgia oh my
6:07
mind poor little rock about to go up
6:10
something called Snake
6:12
Hill should be interesting I see where
6:15
it gets its name
6:17
though I definitely see where it gets
6:19
its name man this is very steep this is
6:22
really steep we talked about Television
6:25
TV show history now let's delve into a
6:28
little movie history one of the greatest
6:32
and most majestic films of all time
6:36
something right up here along this
6:37
Waterway stands in fact the last
6:41
remaining tidbit screen used from that
6:46
film is located right up here I should
6:48
rephrase that a little bit there are
6:50
props as far as clothing and you know
6:52
things that were shown in rooms from the
6:54
film that are in museums all around this
6:57
I'm referring to is a structure a
6:59
building the last remaining one from the
7:02
1939 classic Gone With the Wind on a
7:06
side note that bridge is pretty wildl
7:09
looking no one really knows for sure why
7:12
the producers set designers and location
7:15
Scouts chose this Old
7:19
Mill but they did and the rest is
7:23
history movie history epic movie history
7:28
now it can only be seen for a very short
7:30
duration at the beginning of the film
7:32
during the credit sequence but it is
7:35
amazing the fact that this still exists
7:38
you can walk through it you can touch it
7:40
you can take pictures of it this is the
7:44
only remaining building from Gone With
7:48
the Wind my mind is slightly blown right
7:52
now okay it's happening right now it's
7:57
happening I am going to go
8:01
inside the Old Mill the date stamp on
8:05
the side a carving says
8:08
1832 is when it was originally
8:11
constructed that famous wheel down there
8:15
wow look at this this pulley that a rope
8:18
used to be hanging from let's go let's
8:23
go into the nether regions I'm just
8:25
sitting here watching the wheel go round
8:28
and round
8:31
and the water likes to flow I'm up on
8:34
the second floor
8:44
now it's been redone been repurposed and
8:44
stronger structures have been
8:48
built because of the amount of tourists
8:50
that come out here you have to make it
8:53
structurally
8:55
sound this is pretty freaking cool
9:00
people have also written their
9:04
names along the roof and the headboards
9:08
I don't think I'm going to do that I
9:10
don't think it's allowed sometimes I
9:12
will place my name in locations when
9:15
there's a sign designating that it's not
9:18
frowned upon but I don't think I don't
9:22
think you're supposed to do that the
9:23
side you don't see on screen around the
9:27
back is a beautiful little Park that
9:30
they have built around the property as
9:33
well if you get the hankering in fact
9:36
you can sit next to these mushroom these
9:38
are some large mushrooms I don't think
9:42
no they're not real they're made out of
9:44
they're made out of some sort of
9:46
concrete material as is these what
9:50
appear to be wooden bridges but don't be
9:54
fooled
9:55
these are not made out of wood
9:59
that is also a concrete esque type
10:03
material Bridge not a Todd Bridge not a
10:06
Jeff Bridge not even a Bow Bridge but a
10:10
heavily constructed bridge that will not
10:27
Decay that's that's kind of difficult to
10:41
whistle okay that's that's really tough
10:41
I wonder if these two fowl have ever
10:43
been given the names scarlet and Rett
10:47
probably not the first person who have
10:49
suggested
10:50
that he's looking at me though Rhett who
10:54
I've so named was just staring at me he
10:56
went back to his business of
10:58
scratching he doesn't care what I'm
11:00
saying he's basically thinking frankly
11:03
Adam the woo I don't give a you know you
11:06
can finish the rest one last view
11:08
looking
11:10
downward that was pretty cool I got to
11:13
admit that was pretty cool going to stop
11:16
off at this Best Buy see if they have
11:19
the tripod I always use that I always
11:22
lose the last few stores haven't had
11:25
them I don't know what the deal is but
11:27
hopefully they're not discontinued and
11:29
it doesn't
11:30
appear like they have it here either I
11:34
stepped it up a
11:35
notch started driving that
11:39
around would you still love me the
11:41
search for that tripod is a real
11:44
conundrum it's a regional thing some
11:46
Best Buys don't carry it this one didn't
11:49
have it but there's another one 10 or 15
11:52
milom here that supposedly has
11:56
four in stock should I take a chance and
11:59
drive over
12:01
there yeah heck it let's do it there's
12:04
the state capital signal ahead freeway
12:08
ends does is there a a traffic signal
12:12
ahead or am I supposed to leave a signal
12:15
like wave and make a signal that the
12:18
freeway's ending it's very confusing all
12:22
right let's give this one a shot well
12:25
Bucky and bat
12:27
boy I don't think be running out of
12:29
tripods for a while since they're nearly
12:31
impossible to find in some areas in the
12:34
store I went ahead and got all they had
12:37
and thumbs up for internet price
12:39
matching this eventful day has left me
12:42
