the last time I was in s cloud that
0:02
Dollar Tree had not been built yet nor
0:05
had this new Dunkin Donuts that was in
0:08
December and they're popping up fast and
0:11
I am celebrating the event with a large
0:14
coffee but only one cream one sugar
0:17
welcome everyone Adam the woo here and
0:20
this is no small feat because normally I
0:22
put three and four and five creams in a
0:25
coffee sometimes so tapering back I
0:27
thought it was going to be difficult but
0:29
it's actually not too bad I'm getting
0:30
used to it it's my second channel daily
0:32
Vlog channel it's the daily woo I was a
0:37
permanent fixture in this neck of the
0:38
woods for over two decades I lived in
0:42
this General region the CMI St Cloud
0:45
area from 1991 until a couple years ago
0:49
permanently at least what I thought was
0:51
going to be permanently before I you
0:54
know Chang my life path started doing
0:56
other things but I worked at a number of
0:59
places around here and lived at a series
1:02
of different places mostly in St Cloud
1:06
so this is my stomping ground it's
1:09
always good to pass back through a
1:12
breath of fresh air it's very nice to
1:14
reminisce and something about
1:18
Hometown makes you feel good and I even
1:21
have a Sint Cloud tattoo
1:23
STC short for St Cloud that's what
1:26
that's what we call it around here STC
1:28
it's interesting that the shell of this
1:30
pay phone still exists because many many
1:32
years ago before cell phones I would
1:35
stand right here and use this pay phone
1:38
and way back then New York Avenue which
1:41
is the downtown area used to run
1:45
continuously without being blocked by
1:47
City Hall they put this up uh probably
1:51
late '90s early 2000s now you have to
1:54
drive around it to get to the lakefront
1:56
but you used to be able to go right
1:58
through there I've always loved this
2:00
mural on the side of the wall down here
2:02
this Eagle looks like he's got something
2:04
on his mind he's a very sneaky Eagle
2:07
what do you thinking Eagle I see those I
2:10
see those eyes wandering around you have
2:13
something on your mind it's been
2:14
repainted a handful of times but this
2:16
little engraving on the side of the wall
2:18
has always been here let me live in my
2:21
house by the side of the road and be a
2:23
friend to man when my family first moved
2:25
here this was the library before that
2:28
back in the day it was the original bank
2:30
then it became some thrift stores and
2:32
it's been sitting empty for quite some
2:34
time now and it seems also recently a
2:36
couple other storefronts have fallen
2:39
into emptiness this place is no longer
2:43
full of products and this place is for
2:45
rent as
2:48
well these old little downtown shops be
2:52
pretty cool to own a little store in a
2:54
downtown area like this one day H maybe
2:57
one day I spent many a dime or a couple
3:00
dollars too inside the three Saints
3:03
thrift shop over the years and you know
3:05
a place is good a thrift Shop's good
3:07
when they have a bag sale those are my
3:09
favorite but I just noticed that they're
3:11
moving they're not going to be downtown
3:14
St Cloud anymore and also the whatnot
3:17
shop is also closed it's also for
3:22
rent what's going on down here near the
3:25
view of the water tower the last
3:27
apartment I had in Florida
3:29
right down this road if you look at
3:31
these boarded up Windows there was a
3:34
point when I almost moved into the room
3:39
right up there underneath this Barber
3:43
Shop which now the sign says that it's a
3:47
designated construction site anyone who
3:50
trespasses is committing a felony but
3:53
instead I ended up moving into this
3:55
place those two top Windows you're
3:57
looking at and the entryway door was
3:59
right there where there is now a mailbox
4:02
the mailbox wasn't there but that was
4:03
the entryway door to lead to the second
4:07
floor where I resided I've stopped by
4:09
here a few times in recent visits to St
4:12
Cloud but it's amazing to think about
4:15
that I used to live up there and all
4:16
these little stores and shops this used
4:19
to be a coffee shop there used to be a
4:21
deli down there all of them are either
4:23
closed or they've changed moved on
4:27
progress I've moved on they've moved on
4:30
life always rolls on not the most
4:33
exciting place in the world but for me a
4:35
lot of memories here you could say it's
4:38
full of old haunts isn't that right
4:40
Casper even though that's not Casper
4:43
it's just a ghost that looks like Casper
4:46
when it comes to notable places here
4:48
this building the hunter Arms Hotel
4:50
which is now Apartments was used in an
4:52
episode of super boy a movie called 2000
4:55
maniacs and the water boy I still
4:58
remember the day Adam Sandler and fua
5:00
balk and Henry Winkler were wandering
5:02
around down here in fact if you watch
5:04
the water boy during the football scene
5:06
at the end you can see me in a couple
5:08
shots true story it was pretty cool they
5:11
had this whole alley blocked off back in
5:13
here and I met Henry Winkler standing
5:16
right there I didn't get to meet Adam
5:17
Sandler but my sister got a picture with
5:20
him which was pretty cool and it was the
5:22
scene where the guy that looks like
5:24
Colonel Sanders came walking down the
5:26
stairs and then Adam Sandler is getting
5:28
hit on by two girls girls I see a lot of
5:31
girls I see a lot of guys too when my
5:34
family moved here from Oklahoma I'll
5:36
check that school sign out there there's
5:39
no longer a school up here but there was
5:42
at my dad's former Church it used to be
5:44
a little First Christian Church and we
5:46
live behind it in what they called the
5:50
parsonage that was in 1991 about a year
5:53
later a lot of the kids who went to the
5:56
school at the church started to write
5:59
their name names in the concrete and I
6:02
think oh check it out see
6:04
1992 this was around the time that we
6:07
moved here and I believe somewhere in
6:10
here my
6:11
sister put her name it's crazy to see
6:14
these cuz this was 25 years ago and a
6:17
lot of the names
6:21
written all through
6:23
here I have remained friends and
6:27
acquaintances and I know a lot of these
6:29
people to this
6:32
day wow this seeing a lot of these names
6:36
brings back a lot of memories amazing
6:39
that so many people I still know have
6:41
their
6:42
names engraved here in the concrete and
6:45
my
6:47
sister right there
6:57
Faith that's where my sister inscribed
6:57
her name two and a half decades
7:00
ago that's amazing I'm seven years older
7:03
than my sister I didn't go to school at
7:06
the church but I really wish I would
7:08
have
7:10
inscribed my name somewhere in here but
7:14
I didn't they even have a little Twin
7:16
Cinemas here in town it's one of the
7:17
original structures when the town was
7:19
created and they just put a movie
7:21
theater in there I think it's the only
7:22
movie theater in town and it used to be
7:24
called the Popcorn Palace when I lived
7:27
at that apartment downtown this is where
7:29
I get my grocery was about a block away
7:31
I'd walk to the Save A Lot couple times
7:33
a
7:34
week it's where I bought all my food
7:36
it's rare that you see one of these
7:38
squiggly dancing guys away from the road
7:41
he has wandered far from the road and
7:44
he's just gyrating there next to the
7:55
window look at him look at that guy just
7:55
he's saying hello and they're wearing
7:57
the same color shirt
8:00
coordinating bird Crossing we got a bird
8:03
crossing here this is called a Sand Hill
8:07
crane they're
8:10
everywhere in Central Florida Sand Hill
8:13
cranes man why did the Sand Hill crane
8:16
cross the road the lakefront the sa
8:18
Cloud
8:20
Lakefront usually when I return from
8:23
road trips to this neck of the
8:26
woods I usually walk out here
8:30
this is kind of my Fortress of Solitude
8:34
if you will kind of like Superman had
8:37
not really exactly like that but it's a
8:39
place I like to show up to and just do
8:42
some thinking and reminisce of what I
8:45
have done and what I'm going to do Lake
8:48
too short for Lake toopa kica yesterday
8:51
was a very long day normally I start
8:54
winding down around I hear you up there
8:57
yes we hear you up there
9:00
I know it is a great day he's just so
9:03
happy that bird is so happy I've gone
9:06
through a few different incarnations of
9:08
the way I film these daily Vlogs in
9:12
recent months probably the last 6 months
9:14
I just film everything on my iPhone 6s
9:17
plus and the reason I do this is based
9:19
on one simple Factor time but real quick
9:23
like why is there a speed limit sign
9:27
right there
9:29
using something for another purpose I
9:31
like it while I still have other cameras
9:33
especially my Canon DSLR I choose not to
9:36
use it I have set a pattern for myself
9:38
to make a video every single day and to
9:40
have that video go live on my YouTube
9:43
channel every single early
9:46
morning I got to get away from this tree
9:49
These Guys these guys are going to poop
9:51
on me what I do is film everything on my
9:53
phone it's all in the camera roll I dump
9:55
it all into iMovie and I edit on that
9:58
platform on my phone this gives me the
10:00
ability of a couple different things the
10:01
first one is a big one I am able to edit
10:03
on the go which means right now I can
10:05
edit what I've already filmed sitting in
10:07
the rental car without pulling out a
10:09
laptop taking an external device dumping
10:11
the footage in and number two is
10:13
uploading the Vlogs sometime on the road
10:16
Wi-Fi is very difficult to find even if
10:19
you can find free Wi-Fi at a library or
10:21
a Starbucks or a McDonalds or even a
10:24
motel uploading versus just surfing the
10:27
web is a lot more more strenuous and
10:30
stressful and because I have unlimited
10:32
data through AT&T it's easier to upload
10:34
through the LTE on my phone my routine
10:37
usually consists of this I wake up
10:39
between 6:00 and 7:30 a.m. every morning
10:42
depending on the time zone I'm in and
10:44
you might even notice that that is
10:45
normally when the Vlogs for that day go
10:48
live because they were uploaded late the
10:50
night before so when I wake up that
10:52
morning I make them public and then I
10:54
start filming that day's Vlog I film all
10:58
day editing through throughout the day
11:00
mostly editing at night then I upload
11:02
late that evening and the process begins
11:05
immediately early the next morning so
11:08
last night for example I was out till
11:10
midnight I hadn't done any editing so I
11:12
was up till 3:00 a.m. editing another
11:14
hour to upload I didn't get much sleep
11:17
last night that is the process on how I
11:20
do things a lot of people have been
11:22
asking so hopefully that answered some
11:24
questions well this is a first regular
11:27
Bank of America but Park in front is a
11:30
mobile Bank of America
11:33
ATM that's different this is what it
11:35
looks like
11:37
inside kind of different I've never
11:39
experienced or withdrawn money from an
11:43
ATM inside a little truck like this
11:46
before first time for everything W look
11:48
at that vehicle that's pretty cool I'm
11:50
going to stop off here at 10th Street
11:52
produce used to be an old gas
11:56
station get some stuff I got myself a
11:59
pineapple half a dozen stocks of corn
12:02
for my mom my dad and myself and a
12:07
delicious M strawberry actually about a
12:11
whole flat of them that's a lot of
12:13
strawberries they won't go to w here's
12:15
one of the clips from the water boy
12:17
where you can see me there's this pile
12:19
up of football players Adam Sanders down
12:22
there in the middle somewhere or at
12:23
least his character people are very
12:26
discouraged and wondering if he's okay
12:29
there's me right there right there
12:31
that's me waving the flag with blonde
12:33
hair there's a few other scenes that you
12:35
can see me I'm standing next to these
12:37
guys with their shirts off with the body
12:40
paint decorated up here I'm over here in
12:43
the corner next to my sister and my
12:47
friend Josh on either side of me look at
12:50
that that's back when I used to bleach
12:53
my hair a lot oh my gosh that was a long
12:55
time ago it's pretty amazing how even
12:57
only after a few days of eating a little
13:00
bit better not even a dramatic change
13:02
just a small change drinking a little
13:04
bit more water eating a lot more fruits
13:07
and vegetables instead of chips for
13:09
snacks I'm still eating the same normal
13:12
kind of meals here and there but just
13:15
the little things that are adding up the
13:18
nutrients it's incredible how much
13:21
better I feel now than I did even 3 four
13:24
five days ago a week ago a month ago
13:27
granted being on the road does make it
13:30
very difficult for eating poorly but
13:33
that should not be an excuse and I do
13:34
not want to keep that as an excuse
13:36
that's why I'm changing I'm doing this
13:38
non diet I'm calling it a a diet of
13:42
sorts but I'm not sticking to any
13:45
particular one game plan I'm just trying
13:48
to slowly put in some goodness here and
13:52
there and cutting back slowly and then
13:54
hopefully over time I will see a
13:57
difference it's good to be back in
13:58
Florida is it's nice to be back home I
14:02
have lived in a lot of different places
14:05
I have a lot of places that Feel Like
14:07
Home to me because my family moved
14:09
around so much because I travel so much
14:12
myself as an adult I have a lot of
14:13
friends all over the country there's a
14:15
lot of places that feel like home but
14:17
out of all those places I lived in this
14:20
neck of the woods the longest so I guess
14:22
this would be the homiest of all homey
14:27
places but I have a lot of big plans for
14:29
the rest of the year and after I depart
14:32
here in mid April I probably most likely
14:36
will not return until the holidays so
14:39
it's going to be a very strenuous very
14:41
busy rest of the year travel
14:46
season it's going to be good it's nice
14:50
to have this little couple week
14:53
decompression regain my
14:56
thoughts breath of fresh air and to make
14:59
me excited about hitting the road
15:02
again see you guys later
15:05
Vlog over
