TDW 1726 - Things You Might Not Know About Me

0:06 what's up

0:07 fellas what's

0:09 happening hey I

0:12 heard there was a bunch of cows around

0:15 here I

0:17 heard there was a lot of cows out

0:21 here get

0:23 it yeah know it's not funny but good

0:27 morning just want to say good morning

0:30 have a good

0:31 day see you they're doing a lot of road

0:34 construction here in St Cloud in 1991

0:37 when my family moved here that was a

0:39 little champ convenience store and it

0:42 was the first thing you see when you

0:44 entered town so all of this that you're

0:48 looking at including the Walmart did not

0:53 exist at that time welcome everyone Adam

0:56 uh the woo here it's my second channel

0:58 daily Vlog channel it's the daily

1:08 woo burns my tongue a little bit it's

1:08 incredible how much can change just in

1:10 three short months this used to be the

1:13 abandoned closed flea market where I

1:17 lost my drone that time over the fence

1:19 the location where I spent many a

1:22 weekends in the early

1:24 9s they're building a shopping center

1:26 here now and the tree that I hit with

1:28 the Drone oh check it get out they have

1:31 torn the tree down that ate my drone The

1:36 Majestic was bested by that tree and now

1:40 the

1:41 tree the tree has gotten his Just

1:47 Desserts revenge is sweet at one point

1:51 there was a gas station here and the

1:53 flea market main office sat right where

1:56 this trailer is now and the cracker

2:00 House Saloon that's right I'm

2:01 pronouncing it correctly there was a

2:03 saloon called the cracker House Bar it

2:07 has been torn down and I feel like I

2:08 need to document both these signs before

2:12 they are demolished there it is a relic

2:15 of Saint Cloud cimi

2:18 history right there but not for much

2:21 longer it's on the chopping block this

2:24 little town doesn't have a lot of claims

2:25 to fame one of the popular ones was a

2:27 friend of mine told me a story of a guy

2:29 he knew that was at the bar one time and

2:31 he talked to Kid Rock on his cell phone

2:34 at that Saloon it's kind of like the

2:35 marrywood children episode the man who

2:37 met Andy Griffith it's one of St Cloud's

2:40 claims to

2:41 fame true story over the last decade or

2:44 so the twin towns of St Cloud and CMI

2:46 which used to have a little bit of a

2:48 barrier of nothingness between them now

2:50 they have merged it's really hard to

2:52 tell when one ends and one begins we are

2:55 technically now in CMI when I crossed

2:57 the state line the other day into

2:58 Florida I got very excited excited

3:00 because I saw a pamphlet and I realized

3:02 that I was going to catch the tail end

3:04 of Baseball spring training the Houston

3:07 Astros used to reside here and to my

3:10 disappointment right after I realized

3:12 spring training was still in effect that

3:15 they no longer play here it is now home

3:19 to the

3:21 Florida firef frogs I was super excited

3:24 about catching a few games at the place

3:26 I used to work here at the snack bar

3:28 selling hot dogs and whatnot if you're

3:29 not familiar with the inner workings of

3:31 how baseball players get to the major

3:33 leagues there's something called Farm

3:35 teams and one of them used to be here in

3:38 Kumi Florida for the Astros and in the

3:40 preseason the players would fly from

3:42 Texas to here to get ready for the

3:44 season but it no longer exist here in

3:47 CMI what the heck happens there are some

3:50 games starting in mid April and it looks

3:52 like they are part of the Braves

3:55 organization now but check it out

3:57 there's still a Houston emblem in there

4:00 they forgot to remove it and it might

4:01 not be a bad idea to pressure wash that

4:03 out just just saying and I don't know if

4:06 I'm allowed in here but the gate was

4:07 open so I'm walking in I feel like I'm

4:10 reliving that scene from The

4:13 Natural very reminiscent of it oh my

4:16 gosh this brings back memories I used to

4:19 work here I us used to go to a lot of

4:22 games here sit in these very

4:31 seats awesome Iola County

4:31 Stadium good times they just po the

4:33 sprinklers on The Field's still in super

4:35 good shape I might have to show up to

4:37 one of those frogs games see what the

4:39 hype's all about people would usually

4:40 congregate over in this area try to

4:42 catch some foul balls and I met Tommy

4:45 lorta right down there next to that

4:48 little concrete pillar fun fact about me

4:51 when I was younger I really wanted to be

4:53 a professional baseball player it was my

4:55 goal my dream in life as a youth as I

4:58 got older realized that was not going to

5:00 come to fruition and then I had a brief

5:03 moment where I wanted to be a

5:04 professional baseball player umpire

5:07 because here at this stadium is where

5:09 they used to do the training and the

5:11 teaching for it I opted out of that as

5:14 well but thought you'd like to know

5:16 standing here makes me think I could

5:18 have been standing up to the plate

5:20 staring down a picture or I could have

5:21 been behind the batter calling balls and

5:25 Strikes neither one of those happened

5:27 instead I'm standing on the other side

5:28 of the net like so many others life's

5:31 funny like that huh another little Relic

5:33 that will probably be removed soon it

5:35 actually says spring training nope no

5:38 spring training here oh yeah check it

5:40 out they still haven't changed the

5:43 signage over here about 2025 years ago a

5:46 younger Adam the woo could have been

5:48 seen standing out front waiting for the

5:50 players to exit I got to meet Craig beio

5:52 Jeff Bagwell and the one and only Yogi

5:55 Bara right there and while we're on the

5:58 subject of things people might not know

6:00 about me I went to one semester of

6:03 college here what is now Johnson

6:07 University of course back then it was

6:08 called Florida Christian College they

6:10 dropped that name and created a new one

6:12 I think you're still Affiliated in some

6:14 fashion though when my family moved from

6:16 Oklahoma to Florida in 1991 I took my

6:18 GED the only stipulation in me doing

6:20 that versus going back to high school

6:23 would be to attend college for at least

6:25 one semester here I never graduated I

6:28 never finished the year I guess you

6:29 could say I guess gosh technically I'm a

6:32 College Dropout oh my goodness the last

6:35 remaining Kmart in this area looks like

6:39 it has closed or it is closing many

6:42 years ago I worked at another one that

6:43 was about four or five miles down the

6:45 road that one closed probably 10 15

6:47 years ago but this one was holding on

6:49 strong until now the only thing left in

6:52 there are fixtures furniture and

6:55 equipment for sale for future stores oh

6:58 all this wood is M says free take me so

7:02 that's actually pretty good if you live

7:03 in this area and you need some hurricane

7:06 preparedness supplies there's some wood

7:08 in front of this old Kmart you want to

7:10 come get it I was just noticing on this

7:13 Triple T

7:14 septic truck look at the fish on there

7:18 three-eyed fish wasn't there a Simpsons

7:22 character there was a three-eyed fish

7:24 where I go I just don't

7:27 know I got to go got to got to take it

7:31 slow Red Hot Chili Peppers were on the

7:34 radio every time I hear them I miss Los

7:36 Angeles you will do a thing

7:44 ding take me to the river let own your

7:44 I'll be coming back baby I'll be coming

7:46 back from and now look what's

7:48 playing

7:51 Smashing

7:53 Pumpkins that name sounds familiar G to

7:55 do a little thrift store window shopping

7:58 I might buy something but

8:00 usually just like to look around I don't

8:01 think I ever saw this episode Duck to

8:04 the Future one negative thing about

8:06 thrift stores a lot of times the CDs are

8:09 not inside the cases but you can learn

8:11 the secrets of pool hustling I totally

8:14 was going to buy that PM Dawn album in

8:16 1991 or 1992 I was invited with some

8:19 friends to go to grad night at Magic

8:21 Kingdom and PM Dawn performed kind of

8:24 disappointed they didn't have the CD in

8:26 the case however they did have this

8:28 Weezer CD

8:30 I've never owned this one so pretty

8:32 excited a17 with tax and speaking of Los

8:35 Angeles Beverly Hills that's where I

8:40 want to be there is an incredible amount

8:44 of cattle in Central Florida when I was

8:46 a kid and we moved to this area from

8:49 Oklahoma I had no idea that there were

8:51 farmers and ranchers in Florida because

8:53 I was always led to believe that it was

8:55 just theme parks and stuff like that and

8:58 then I got down here and you realize

9:00 that most of it is this type of terrain

9:03 I am a firm believer that in life you

9:05 have to mix things up a bit your

9:07 interest your hobbies what you do in

9:09 your free time it has to be a mixed bag

9:13 or life will become dull and

9:15 uninteresting and I try to take that

9:17 philosophy and transcend it into these

9:20 daily videos and I'm hoping it comes

9:23 across in that way now sometimes I do

9:26 similar types of subjects but gosh in

9:28 the last six months to a year especially

9:31 even though I've been doing these Vlogs

9:32 for way past 4 and 1 half years every

9:35 day I feel like I have stepped up my

9:38 personal game of going out and learning

9:42 something every single day and hopefully

9:43 I am taking that and teaching it and

9:45 showing it in the correct aspect

9:48 sometimes I fail at that but my goal is

9:50 to be doing that I'm also take that take

9:54 that doing something constantly that I

9:57 am very hardcore passionate about I

10:00 think there also needs to be a flip side

10:03 there has to be a point where you go go

10:06 go go go go go go go and then you

10:08 decompress just for a short time you

10:10 have to set back realize what the future

10:13 holds plan things take a deep

10:18 breath and just

10:20 formulate take it all in I think you

10:23 need both

10:26 balances does that make any sense these

10:28 straw strawberries are so good I think

10:31 I've eaten like 30 or 40 of them since I

10:33 got them yesterday and my mom is making

10:36 something I wonder what she's making in

10:38 the crock

10:45 poot oh that's dinner it's been a while

10:45 since I had any new shirt designs over

10:47 on

10:48 spreadshirt but I think these two will

10:52 suffice wacky balloon guy I think he

10:56 might be my favorite but then again

11:00 it's a very close second down here with

11:04 Hitchcock would be

11:27 poud

11:27 Vlog oh never
