0:53
the sign
0:55
right here
0:56
in orange county florida community
0:59
obviously there's an orange county
1:00
california this is not referred to as
1:02
the oc here on this coast
1:05
very few people even say orange county
1:06
out here but there is an orange county
1:09
where they have the wreath
1:11
placed here double wreaths
1:13
and triple bells
1:15
well i guess it'd be six bells just
1:16
double wreath a wreath there and a
1:18
wreath there let me flip this screen up
1:21
and do the intro
1:24
screen is now up so i can see myself and
1:28
wearing
1:30
an appropriate t-shirt while traffic
1:32
over there
1:33
is that this looking at me
1:36
welcome everyone adam the
1:39
woo here a little information about the
1:41
last video i did here 11 years ago two
1:44
at the moment
1:46
i had gotten a new dslr i was very
1:48
excited
1:49
starting the youtube career that i now
1:51
have formulated for myself i had a very
1:55
a camera that was not the best quality
1:56
the resolution was horrible and i was
1:59
very excited because
2:01
that morning i invested some money into
2:03
a dslr at the time a brand new one
2:05
11 years ago
2:08
hello
2:10
merry christmas
2:12
that's awesome my attitude on this video
2:14
is going to be a little bit different
2:16
and much better
2:18
i had not done any research that day i
2:20
expected to show up here
2:23
and there to be a plethora of lights
2:26
activities
2:28
maybe
2:30
some elves and santa
2:32
around
2:33
or at least a adornment of lights on a
2:37
lot of the houses that was not the case
2:39
now i know what christmas florida is it
2:42
is a tiny
2:44
quaint community
2:46
and i'm going to focus more on
2:48
that
2:49
show what is still here show some of the
2:51
relics of the past and what they are
2:53
doing to move forward
2:55
with celebrating not only
2:57
christmas which is as a recording of
2:59
this tomorrow this is christmas eve but
3:01
they do it all year there is a permanent
3:04
christmas tree which used to be right
3:06
across the street over there i will walk
3:07
over there show those remnants but also
3:10
show where the pneumas are
3:11
join me
3:13
as a mosquito has just
3:19
shall you
3:19
all right crossing over the road here
3:21
this is awesome
3:22
i did mention i was wearing the shirt
3:24
right there with santa
3:26
on there
3:28
you know just the way you learn things
3:30
over time about how
3:32
you want to approach things how you want
3:34
to present things
3:36
i didn't really present things 11 years
3:38
ago here in the way i would show them
3:40
today but it's still out there you can
3:42
still find it
3:44
it's comical
3:45
but it's not how it's not the way i
3:47
would do things
3:48
current day this is where the new tree
3:50
is
3:51
right here check this out
4:00
it's going to be more of a detailed
4:00
excursion
4:02
around the town
4:03
an incorporated community
4:05
now there is the pine grove church
4:07
building
4:08
over here now this is on the opposite
4:10
corner
4:11
of where the old timey tree
4:14
used to be that was here year round and
4:17
there is a new timey tree
4:20
that has been placed here on the other
4:21
corner so you could call this a little
4:23
bit of an update
4:24
from a decade ago when i was here
4:27
now a lot of my friends have been here
4:28
since i did that video 10 11 years ago
4:31
tim tracker's been out here did an
4:33
episode world of micah
4:36
he has been out here and covered
4:38
and most recently aimless adventures was
4:42
out here just a couple weeks ago
4:44
and i'll probably be touching on some of
4:46
the subjects that he
4:48
showed
4:49
but also maybe see if i could find
4:50
something else and put my my little spin
4:52
on it and i encourage anyone else
4:55
that's in the area to stop by here you
4:58
know anyone that
5:00
documents history in the past
5:02
and whatnot just like myself and those
5:05
that i've mentioned
5:07
it is a fantastic
5:09
but just be aware that there's not a
5:12
whole heck of a lot
5:14
out here now what i'm seeing at the
5:16
moment is more than was here 11 years
5:19
ago
5:24
there's a manger scene here
5:24
so maybe the town has embraced it a
5:27
little bit more
5:28
than they did back then
5:30
who knows
5:37
and you can see
5:37
been taken from the manger
5:39
and
5:40
right there the lamp of mary and joseph
5:44
what can i give him poor as i am
5:47
if i were a shepherd i give him a lamb
5:49
if i were a wise man i do my part what
5:52
can i give him
5:54
give him my heart
6:00
i realize not everyone celebrates
6:00
christmas and that's fine
6:02
and if you do
6:03
i hope you enjoy this this walk around
6:07
the christmas season
6:15
and if you don't
6:15
i also hope you enjoy it if you do or
6:16
you don't
6:18
i happen to celebrate christmas
6:24
and love the nativity scene
6:24
and there's two different two different
6:26
types of versions of christmas and i
6:28
embrace both
6:30
the religious aspect
6:36
there was no more room at the end and
6:36
then also the fun aspect
6:39
which could be seen as i flip this
6:42
which could be seen
6:43
as the santa claus aspect right here
6:47
and both of those
6:55
whatever your forte is now back here
6:56
behind this church is a post office
6:58
and at the post office
7:01
they will stamp
7:03
they will give the the postmark stamp to
7:05
wherever you mail it to and it will say
7:07
christmas florida and for what i was
7:09
reading
7:10
starting basically after thanksgiving
7:13
the three or four people who work at the
7:15
post office
7:17
they don't hire any more anymore workers
7:19
so they get kind of bogged down with a
7:21
lot of tourists that just pass through
7:23
here going from the beach which is that
7:25
direction you know west westward that
7:27
way
7:28
over eastbound towards downtown orlando
7:30
which is
7:31
my gosh right about 30 miles give or
7:33
take
7:34
now a little more history
7:36
you'll notice this states fort christmas
7:40
which was built back in 1835
7:43
three miles north
7:46
okay the r is missing so that kind of
7:47
threw me off three miles no th
7:51
of this marker so three miles no th or
7:54
north
7:55
and this little marker was erected here
7:56
in 1951
7:58
fort christmas is how the town
8:00
got its name and the fort got its name
8:04
because it was
8:06
when the when everyone showed up here to
8:08
start building the fort the first
8:10
settlement
8:11
it was on christmas
8:13
day which would be tomorrow
8:16
and they started building it in 1835 so
8:18
it got its name i hope i got that right
8:21
christmas day is when they arrived here
8:24
to start building the fort
8:27
and they said you know what what a great
8:28
name because we arrived here on
8:30
christmas day let's just call the fort
8:33
fort christmas this baptist church right
8:36
over here
8:37
is titled fort christmas baptist church
8:44
oh
8:44
there goes a
8:47
ambulance and a fire truck just went by
8:48
from the christmas fire department
8:51
okay i'm gonna walk over to across the
8:53
cross streets here
8:55
where the new manger scene is here
8:58
they're cleaning out this area they have
8:59
just torn down these trees cut down
9:01
these trees
9:02
so this is gonna be the new christmas
9:05
right here just an assumption but this
9:08
is the new permanent christmas tree and
9:10
new
9:11
permanent manger scene the old one the
9:13
relics which i'm gonna go i'm gonna go
9:15
snoop around go ahead
9:17
snoop around
9:19
as ace ventura would say
9:22
it's right over there and i'm kind of
9:24
walking through
9:25
these the shrubbery here
9:27
i also have some appropriate colorful
9:29
socks on
9:31
celebrating the day
9:34
i just love this i wanted to go out
9:36
this is also kind of my merry christmas
9:38
video
9:40
to everyone even though i'm recording on
9:41
christmas eve
9:43
i want to wish everyone who's watching
9:44
this a merry christmas
9:47
or whatever it is that you celebrate i
9:49
hope you have a great day
9:51
so i'm gonna walk across the street here
9:54
on the corner
9:56
of christmas road in east colonial
9:59
i should also point out that it's a
10:01
balmy 75 degrees out here
10:05
in town
10:30
i set the camera up kind of wedged it
10:30
between the stop sign
10:32
kind of show you where i put it
10:34
to get that angle
10:35
look at this
10:37
i just kind of wedged it right in there
10:43
got really quiet now
10:43
all the traffic went away
10:46
okay walking across
10:49
walking across the road made it across
10:51
the road there
10:52
to where i just was standing over to
10:54
where the former
10:56
permanent christmas tree used to be
11:01
and the signage has seen better days
11:04
back in there some of the garland here
11:06
kind of
11:07
flown over this direction
11:13
and i was watching aimless famous
11:13
adventures when he was here and he was
11:15
wondering what this stated
11:18
and i looked it up i found an old photo
11:20
of what this used to be
11:22
and what it stated was the permanent
11:25
christmas tree at christmas florida is
11:27
the symbol of love and good will
11:30
the christmas spirit
11:32
every day
11:34
in the year
11:36
you can kind of see it but i did find
11:39
i found an old photo online of what that
11:42
said so i just wanted to put that out
11:44
there for anyone that's wondering and
11:46
the tree which was here is still here
11:49
but it's not adorned
11:51
properly anymore
11:56
does have some lights on it
11:58
and there is so there's some power units
12:01
down below
12:03
now it is a possibility when nightfall
12:05
rears its head
12:07
that it will be lit up but it's highly
12:09
doubtful that this is even acknowledged
12:12
on this side of the street the other
12:14
side of the street
12:15
most likely will be illuminated and you
12:18
can see the santa structure
12:20
looking across saying why am i not over
12:23
there
12:24
on that side
12:25
one year santa i'm going to assure you
12:28
you will make your way this is not
12:31
this is a this is a stationary
12:37
the statue of a santa should be
12:37
stating this might not even be movable
12:39
because this thing is solid
12:50
now this
12:50
obviously was where the manger scene
12:53
used to be this was the permanent major
12:55
scene a lot more durable than the new
12:57
one that's across the way
12:59
this thing's not going anywhere this
13:00
could
13:02
probably last through some hurricane
13:04
gale force winds got some ant beds down
13:08
downstairs there
13:09
here's a little window leading out to
13:11
the foliage
13:13
and this is where mary and joseph and
13:21
manger would have been
13:21
now around the back for years
13:23
there have been other items
13:25
back here
13:26
and not just the
13:28
the leaves from the palm trees there
13:32
but often the distance back here
13:48
so make sure when you stop off just walk
13:48
back behind
13:50
and take a look at this stuff
13:52
oh wait
13:53
before i head over there
14:00
it's a piece of a wall
14:00
and kind of a structure that's mounted
14:03
on the side there or step
14:07
looks to be a foundation
14:09
well part of a wooden foundation of like
14:11
a garden
14:12
it could have been right over in here
14:35
you got a star there in the middle
14:35
used to be a fountain
14:52
look at that
14:52
there is some sort of a stamp on there
14:55
like an engraving might be able to get
14:57
some information off that
15:06
you know for a moment there i thought
15:06
there was an eagle in that tree but it's
15:08
just the way the branch is
15:11
yeah it's just the way the branches it's
15:12
just a piece of wood
15:14
kind of like right up there
15:22
this is neat how these are just back
15:22
here
15:28
and over here might be frosty i see a
15:28
snowman of some sort i'm just you know
15:30
first one i think of is frosty
15:32
yeah i think it is frosty
15:38
this is like a like a scavenger hunt of
15:38
sorts
15:39
because you got frosty or
15:42
frosty's cousin there
15:44
and then the more you continue through
15:47
looks like there's some other characters
15:49
and items
15:51
back in here
15:52
way back in here
15:54
here is a gentleman with
15:57
a hat on back oh no
15:59
it is
16:01
it's a couple
16:03
getting frisky
16:05
right there
16:07
getting close to smooching
16:15
yeah you see they kind of have like
16:15
you don't want to call them foundations
16:16
but this border here
16:18
along the side with the wood
16:27
you know what's interesting
16:32
my mom used to do ceramics
16:32
when she was younger so when i was a
16:35
youth my mom did ceramics and she she
16:38
had a piece like this painted
16:39
differently
16:40
but this is the type of ceramic
16:44
that my mom would make
16:45
that's ceramic class back when i was
16:47
young
16:48
look at that an old ceramic
16:51
cornucopia of sorts
16:54
that could be the work of some termites
17:01
i'm no expert on bugs but yeah that
17:01
that tree has been nod out appropriately
17:04
by some bugs
17:06
and you have some
17:08
some adornment here
17:10
and another one up here
17:12
kind of an unusual weird area
17:16
back in this section
17:18
some sort of a planter or a fountain
17:22
and this is
17:24
i don't know maybe a hundred yards off
17:26
the road
17:30
you would never know there's no signage
17:30
saying go back here and look at
17:32
you know the
17:34
abandoned relics back here but there are
17:36
some back here
17:38
that goes for pretty much anywhere if
17:40
you just look around long enough you
17:41
never know what you're going to find
17:44
i don't want it to be a bear however
17:47
i think i'm pretty good in bears on this
17:48
section
18:03
got some cinder blocks over here
18:03
to go through these ferns
18:10
another star engraved there on that
18:10
piece of concrete
18:11
and this was a photograph or a picture
18:14
of some sort
18:15
and whatever was painted on there
18:18
or to use your interpretation of what
18:19
that was
18:20
because it has been weather worn and
18:22
faded off but you got the two doves one
18:26
and one there with the olive branch
18:29
if i remember correctly
18:35
and the cinder blocks here
18:35
and this is directly behind
18:38
where
18:40
the nativity was you see other people
18:43
across the way are getting their photos
18:45
with the sign leading into town probably
18:46
very popular today
18:48
well here we go
18:50
another cross here i didn't notice
18:52
before
18:55
i really like the rocks here
18:57
i like the style of the rocks here you
18:59
can see how it's weather worn it gives
19:00
it
19:02
some nice little ambiance even with the
19:04
moss
19:05
along the top
19:08
that's pretty cool
19:15
and then over here
19:15
this is something i didn't notice before
19:23
there's some tile work painting
19:23
on the back of that sign that really is
19:24
difficult to make out what it said about
19:26
the christmas tree you have the tree
19:29
and you got some other items all through
19:31
here this is neat
19:32
and down here it says jeanette that
19:34
could have been the artist
19:36
jeanette there and then up top
19:40
gloria
19:42
excelsis dayo
19:55
so cool
19:55
yeah who would know this is even back
19:57
like this oxen
20:02
piece of artwork
20:02
it's right here around the back of where
20:04
the wording used to side
20:06
so you're getting the mixture of both
20:07
you're getting santa
20:09
you're getting the
20:10
the biblical story as well as santa
20:12
you're here
20:14
all in one
20:15
about the wonderful things of christmas
20:18
here in christmas florida back in my car
20:21

20:23

21:36
called the historical park
21:39
winter hours from eight to six summer
21:42
hours eight to eight
21:44
you can see it used to be
21:46
different hours but they have changed it
21:48
to six during winter hours as a new six
21:51
they have painted over with the other
21:53
hour may have been eight to eight at one
21:55
point or eight to seven
21:56
but today that does not apply
21:59
and they do have proper signage out to
22:01
let anyone including myself
22:03
even though i looked it up beforehand
22:05
did not 11 years ago god thought it'd be
22:07
open 11 years ago when i show up on
22:08
christmas eve and it was sorely mistaken
22:11
but now
22:12
they have this little
22:14
signage here planted
22:16
in the grand park closed on christmas
22:18
eve day
22:20
and christmas day
22:26
what about christmas eve night probably
22:26
all the same thing probably all the same
22:27
thing they have two pieces of signage up
22:29
looks like there's another car pulling
22:31
in right there
22:32
see
22:33
not the only one that's kind of curious
22:40
oh that was a
22:40
that was a mail car
22:42
that was a mail car just dropped off
22:43
some mail over there with that box
22:46
and this is the orlando buzzards
22:49
remote control club see
22:52
it's a it's a male vehicle
22:54
dropping off not a traditional style but
22:56
someone's personal vehicle or a personal
22:59
style vehicle
23:05
right here the orlando buzzards
23:05
rc club
23:06
and the mascot is a buzzard
23:10
look
23:11
this is the orlando buzzard
23:18
kind of hoisted on top of an airplane
23:18
drawing and has a remote control rc
23:24
pilot all the remote control cars
23:27
that's cool
23:29
of course
23:30
on this day
23:31
there's also the wind sock
23:38
some wildlife you might see on this day
23:38
no one's out because
23:40
it's christmas eve
23:45
if you do not see an animal you may see
23:45
their presence
23:46
such as tracks
23:49
droppings or feathers
23:52
the droppings of a marsh rabbit
23:54
or maybe even a
23:56
plated woodpecker
23:58
or a gopher tortoise now leaving that
24:00
area and just going a few blocks
24:03
maybe a quarter of a mile not even that
24:04
far to the next spot i want to show
24:06
there's a mule
24:08
right over there in the distance
24:11
it might be a horse
24:13
tough to tell from this
24:15
from this distance
24:17
and there is a pump
24:19
that has a fake rock around it
24:21
not sure why i'm showing that but i am
24:23
does it look like i'm able to drive up
24:25
in this property
24:26
but the gate is unlocked
24:28
it says
24:29
keep
24:31
gate closed at all times
24:33
going in and out
24:36
so i'm gonna
24:38
go on in here
24:46
i don't know what's in here
24:46
that would
24:47
have to have the gate closed but i'll
24:49
put this back over
24:52
now i'm looking for
24:54
a resting place of
24:57
a famous sculpture that is here in town
25:04
even got some seasoned greetings here
25:04
and santa and his sleigh
25:07
now up top
25:09
very difficult to read it
25:11
some of the wording that is here this is
25:13
kind of a little bit better
25:17
so you don't you won't definitely want
25:18
to follow the rules not that i don't
25:19
know who would break
25:21
those rules but if you're thinking about
25:23
doing that
25:24
do not
25:25
also a little more information right up
25:29
also no alcoholic beverages
25:35
no arrangements are to be made without
25:37
the trustees present
25:50
okay i'm going to try to find you know
25:52
what maybe it's right here
25:54
along the front
26:03
so i'm gonna try to match up that photo
26:03
see if i can find
26:04
who i'm looking for after about 25 30
26:07
minutes of searching took a while
26:09
because there was no kind of bearings on
26:11
anything behind
26:13
the one photo i saw
26:15
i couldn't really get the bearings i had
26:16
to check each individual
26:19
headstone
26:20
but i have found the wheeler
26:23
family plot
26:25
they're all here
26:31
and the fascinating thing is
26:31
someone else in the family had a similar
26:34
name
26:34
to tex
26:36
there was also a rex a john rex
26:39
now tex
26:40
his nickname
26:42
was james hewlett wheeler who was a
26:45
sculptor
26:47
a cowboy sculptor
26:50
born in 01
26:52
to 54.
26:57
and he did a famous
26:57
sculpture of
26:58
seabiscuit the horse
27:00
and also one of will rogers
27:03
on will rogers horse
27:06
i'll show some photos of his work
27:09
but he is here in christmas
27:12
and for anyone interested
27:14
that doesn't want to
27:15
walk the entire grounds
27:17
here just gives some bearings here
27:19
if you want to come pay your respects
27:22
it's behind the chapel
27:24
right over there
27:25
james hewlett wheeler
27:27
cowboy sculptor
27:34
pretty neat i never realized that until
27:34
today when i was researching some stuff
27:36
other than the obvious
27:40
pretty fascinating
27:41
he was born here
27:43
as well
27:45
the writing on this photo i found says
27:47
tex wheeler statue of will rogers and
27:51
soap suds
27:53
at will rogers ranch
27:55
in santa monica california
27:57
look at that look how realistic that
27:59
looks
28:00
it's very talented
28:05
i hope that still exists i hope that
28:05
hope his work
28:07
of will rogers and soapside still exist
28:10
back over onto colonial highway 50
28:13
at the community center here at two
28:15
three seven six zero
28:18
nothing going on
28:20
this evening
28:21
boy it's looking
28:24
i mean obviously people are spending
28:25
time with her
28:26
their loved ones
28:28
but i am happy to report
28:30
that this wooden version of santa is
28:33
still here even though falling even more
28:35
apart than he was 11 years ago
28:39
when i
28:40
when i quoted that
28:42
he had failed me
28:48
he didn't fail me wouldn't santa it was
28:48
just i was having a day
29:01
to be honest
29:01
it doesn't look like this gets much much
29:03
much usage
29:06
at all
29:11
i'll check back on in on you in a few
29:13
next time i go back through here wooden
29:15
wooden santa
29:17
it's like the termites have gotten to
29:18
you too
29:27
and as i was driving over here i noticed
29:27
there's something else across the road
29:28
that when i was over there i completely
29:30
missed
29:32
right on the corner of where
29:34
the original tree was
29:36
and i was kind of rooting around through
29:38
the
29:38
brush there are other items over there
29:42
that i completely missed
29:44
so i'm gonna walk over there
29:46
show them don't know how i didn't notice
29:48
this the first time i was over here
29:50
just a few feet away farther down the
29:52
what the wooded section
29:56
is another covered area
29:58
with another tree in there it looks like
30:00
an angel
30:01
and possibly a dog let me zoom in
30:31
just completely
30:31
covered up in
30:32
foliage
30:34
you can't really get over there because
30:36
the water
30:38
standing water there
30:43
no i might be able to walk around i'm
30:43
gonna walk around through there
30:45
i'm gonna go see what that plaque says
30:47
just to give some bearings where i was
30:49
back before in the little mode area
30:54
so that's where the original tree was
30:57
the new tree
30:59
over there an airboat just went by being
31:01
pulled by a truck
31:11
it's a tire
31:11
down there
31:17
oh i don't want there to be any snakes
31:17
please don't be any snakes
32:07
dedicated to the prince of peace
32:07
made possible through the generosity of
32:09
edward dent
32:12
tomina dent
32:20
back in the 50s
32:20
wow
32:28
we got some thorns
32:29
through there
32:54
yeah this is like this is a prime spot
32:54
for a florida slithering creature a
32:58
snake
33:03
there's any snakes down there
33:03
let these holiday socks
33:05
ward you off
33:12
okay i'm good and of course i have to
33:12
show swampy
33:15
world's largest gator
33:18
see the perspective from that car that's
33:20
parked in front of swampy
33:22
this is a gator park just on the
33:23
outskirts just outside
33:26
of town but i wanted to show this
33:28
and i've been here before
33:30
a few years ago did a whole video
33:33
on what's behind
33:35
oh swampy
33:37
yeah
33:39
swampy
33:40
here's the thing
33:42
pulling into the rv park here in town
33:46
right along the road
33:47
see a sleigh there it'd be kind of neat
33:49
to stay here camp here you can stay here
33:53
almost two weeks or two days shy of two
33:55
weeks
33:56
and you can celebrate 12 days of the
33:58
holiday the 12 days of christmas
34:00
in christmas
34:12
all right turn around going back into
34:12
town this is right on the outskirts of
34:14
town also technically in town all right
34:16
definitely could use a touch-up of paint
34:19
i'm happy these still exist
34:22
christmas park
34:25
is what i'm heading into and a lot of
34:27
appropriately named roads through here
34:29
for example
34:31
comet street and cupid ave
34:36
corner of comet and cupid
34:40
that is so cool
34:45
didn't realize that till then
34:45
and if you follow that road back around
34:47
it will bring you to blitzen
34:52
after the reindeer
34:55
when you're here at these cross streets
34:58
one thing you don't want to do
35:00
step in that
35:03
that is a ginormous ant bed
35:06
here on the corner of colonial
35:09
highway 50 and blitzen
35:12
if the ants don't get you
35:14
there's a lot of bees a little beehive
35:16
of activity down in there
35:18
here on the corner of blitzen
35:28
don't want to step in that
35:28
the bad news
35:39
and there are residents all through
35:39
these streets
35:47
another interesting one here
35:47
corner of saint catherine
35:50
and antler
35:58
antler
36:04
you can also find this grocery store
36:04
the deli they have subs pizza
36:07
philly cheese steak
36:09
but notice there on the sea is a santa
36:12
cap it's there year round
36:15
and good to see even saint nicholas
36:21
has a street
36:21
saint nick
36:28
it's appropriate and that's gonna do it
36:28
for today
36:35
tree
36:35
adorned with festooned
36:38
garland and whatnot
36:41
christmas florida i have said that word
36:43
so many times
36:45
and it should i'm gonna probably say it
36:46
again
36:47
christmas park in christmas florida a
36:51
real
36:52
town
36:53
named after the holiday
36:57
pretty much have shown if there's
36:58
anything i missed
37:00
it is because it is
37:01
really heavily hidden
37:04
traversed all the different streets not
37:06
a whole lot not a lot of
37:09
couple different neighborhoods
37:12
i think i found everything of vast
37:15
importance to the name
37:20
in the incorporated town
37:28
look over here you see
37:28
there is a santa
37:31
i'm not going to traverse over there to
37:32
see santa but someone has
37:35
someone has traverse back there
37:37
to see old jolly saint nick
37:55
the jolly fella
38:01
right here on the corner of east
38:01
colonial and cupid
38:04
is where i'm ending this
38:08
he's colonially
38:15
there's another
38:17
another entry point
38:21
underneath the shell station
38:24
where i fueled up
38:26
got some gas
38:34
truly an interesting place
38:34
if ever there was one and it really
38:37
makes a lot of sense to be here on
38:42
as stated that's going to do it for
38:44
today
38:45
i'll see you in the next video the vlog
38:51
right off of about to end right off of
38:55
highway 50.
39:22
that package doesn't have a name on it
39:25
so i just caught someone's attention
