on the water tower this is
3:10
Colombia Alabama a very quaint small
3:14
community with a pretty cool tiny
3:17
downtown area in front of each of the
3:20
structures inside frames they have what
3:23
was here Carpenters grocery used to
3:26
reside in this spot the original ball
3:29
rack from pool hall and grocery I guess
3:31
that was a hot spot for locals back in
3:34
the day this guy he's up to a little
3:36
little trick shooting and they have the
3:38
Bell from the elementary school they

4:10
river and by Crossing that
4:12
bridge we're in
4:15
Georgia just something about trains that
4:17
are always so
4:19
fascinating just to look at there's an
4:21
old saying that it's hard to Look Away
4:23
From A Train That's wrecking it's hard
4:25
for me to Look Away From A Train That's
4:27
just sitting still they're so
4:29
interesting spending so much time
4:31
enjoying these back roads that I just
4:34
was
4:35
alerted I'm 50 mil to empty need to find
4:38
a gas station luckily I'm cruising into
4:41
Blakeley they probably have a gas
4:43
station here this might be the most
4:46
amazing gas pumping
4:48
experience that I have had in a very
4:51
long
4:52
time check this
4:55
out not even a digital screen this
5:00
this is
5:01
amazing I
5:04
honestly I'm like traveling back in time
5:08
while I fuel up the
5:26
RV Quail Motel
5:29
has a bird as their logo and it kind of
5:32
looks like the baates motel Hitchcock
5:36
would be wow look at this look at this
5:39
sweet
5:40
downtown nice Courthouse nothing better
5:43
than these circular Town
5:46
squares oh check it out over here on the
5:49
side little peanuts little baby
5:53

5:56
territory lots of pine trees old man
5:59
people body oh no whoa wait a
6:03
second that's
6:05
him could that
6:07
be old man Peabody this is
6:11
Arlington see the water tower right up
6:14
there this is an interesting building I
6:16
don't know if it was a business or maybe
6:18
two apartments looks like they've
6:20
started tearing down the old school or
6:22
maybe a community
6:24
center I can't tell if it's being
6:27
destroyed on purpose or maybe a storm
6:31
came through and did this here we go
6:34
little homage to Lion Estates perhaps
6:37
the last three or 4 days I've been in
6:39
moderately hilly
6:41
country this area of Georgia however
6:44
it's pretty flat coming up on a little
6:46
town here what's that water tower say ly
6:52
ly Georgia looks like a good portion of
6:55
their former downtown is being bulldozed
6:58
from what I can tell well this was the
7:01
main
7:02
drag at one point in time and when you
7:05
were out cruising on Saturday night you
7:07
pull right in here fill up your car
7:10
grown over with
7:12
weeds at the moment however someone has
7:15
busted in the door you could have played
7:17
the
7:18
lottery or bought yourself a 7UP or
7:22
Aquafina out of that mobile
7:26
cooler a ceiling fan also
7:30
seen better days this could be used in a
7:34
movie this
7:36
dilapidated old home it's very cool
7:39
looking the
7:41
architecture is awesome but it has a
7:43
creepy vibe to
7:46
it at the
7:53
moment
7:53
wow if I were to stand on that porch it
7:57
would definitely cave in not not
7:59
structurally sound check out the beam of
8:01
light that's shining down I wonder if
8:03
there's a little significance of that
8:06
the light shining
8:09
down upon this house at one point there
8:12
were some pumps here there's still a
8:15
nozzle I
8:17
wonder
8:19
nope no water right behind the glass in
8:22
the window some old Coca-Cola Pepsi and
8:25
seven up
8:27
bottles that's pretty cool if you peek
8:29
in the window there's actually quite a
8:31
few on the window sill and the smell
8:36
Illuminating from inside there is it's
8:40
pretty foul I just noticed right here
8:42
along the railroad
8:43
tracks this steam that is
8:51
being being pushed up out of the ground
8:51
underneath the rails you see it there
8:54
what's causing
8:56
that what's causing that Steam
9:00
smoldering under the
9:06
tracks it's kind of unusual isn't it and
9:06
even though there's not much left in
9:08
town there is this bust perched a top
9:12
this statue of a guy named Philip Edward
9:15
Boyd who passed away in
9:18
1906 and the inscription on the side
9:21
says 33 years 1873 to
9:25
1906 devoted to LY Miss Mr Boyd this was
9:30
probably his old stomping grounds and
9:32
now most of it reduced to Rubble it's
9:35
like a tunnel of
9:37
foliage the Shrubbery looming over
9:41
us you don't want to slide off the road
9:44
that's a pretty steep embankment into
9:46
the swamp down there at these Crossroads
9:48
sits Pretoria
9:51
station and it's also right here at 8
9:55
Mile
9:57
Road wonder if slim shadies around
10:00
anywhere looking in the Broken
10:03
Window Old Royal Crown RC Cola machine
10:08
there oh
10:10
wow a beer cooler even
10:14
couple six packs of beer
10:17
there and on the slightly creepy
10:22
side an old meat cooler back here
10:37
oh my
10:38
gosh the meat hooks are still in
10:42
here no thank you and adjacent to that
10:46
building is the former home of the one
10:49
and only Mr Insurance looks like there's
10:52
a
10:53
fire burning down there in the woods I
10:57
pulled off the side of the road
11:00
next to this Baptist Church I was
11:02
reading what they have on their
11:04
Marquee and it deserves a closer closer
11:09
analysis sometimes you see some really
11:11
cool stuff on these Billboards time is
11:14
not measured by
11:16
clocks but by
11:18
moments it's very true I
11:21
wholeheartedly agree with that statement
11:25
whoa must be Bert Reynolds or something
11:29
in Albany now park the RV there they're
11:31
supposed to down by the water have a
11:34
statue of Ray Charles that slowly
11:38
revolves so slowly in fact some say that
11:41
it doesn't move at all but if you stand
11:43
here long enough rest assured he will
11:46
move right here next to the Waterfront
11:48
even have the piano keys all along the
11:50
ground and Mr Ray Charles himself
11:54
sitting behind the piano pounding the
11:57
keys that what do they say when you play
11:59
the piano pounding the keys I don't
12:02
really know what the terminology of that
12:03
is but either way Ray Charles when
12:05
you're watching him in time lapse form
12:07
on this Fountain is spinning around very
12:10
slowly but when It sped up like this you
12:13
can tell he's actually moving so the
12:15
myth has been busted he does move okay
12:19
seriously the slowest moving display
12:22
I've ever seen and as a
12:24
result of a lot of rain in this
12:27
area it's flooded the
12:30
river has made its way up onto this
12:35
walkway that I guess at one point LED
12:37
down to a
12:39
little a little Viewpoint a little park
12:41
down there and now the water's creeping
12:46
up creeping up
12:54
here water's moving pretty quick too if
12:54
you were to jump in there it would whisk
12:55
you away
12:57
Downstream that's for sure there used to
12:59
be a place here called Art Park on Pine
13:03
and it was this old abandoned structure
13:06
and they allowed artist to show up in
13:08
here and pretty much paint whatever they
13:10
wanted to paint free
13:13
rain and now lots of construction
13:16
workers in there they are developing it
13:19
into something else so the artwork has
13:22
been
13:27
removed and the construction
13:27
Crews have taken over
13:29
no more Art Park and I just noticed
13:32
across the street what the heck is this
13:36
tucked away in this parking
13:38
garage there's a bunch of turtles in
13:41
here it's not the ninja
13:44
turtles in fact this one is a Campbell
13:48
Soup Turtle promoting Turtle stew whoa
13:53
and look at that one back there that's a
13:55
happy guy I wonder if he's used to be in
13:58
that
13:59
project that they're now renovating why
14:02
are these in here why are you in here
14:06
Turtles I really enjoy doing these Vlogs
14:08
every day these everyday videos because
14:10
it gives me the opportunity to take my
14:12
travels to take what I am doing and what
14:15
I am learning and what I am passionate
14:16
about and sharing it with the rest of
14:20
the world sometimes I am asked do you
14:22
ever get tired of doing something every
14:24
day of going going going going
14:26
constantly more than 4 and 1/2 years
14:28
straight doing these everyday Vlogs and
14:31
the answer is yes sometimes I do get a
14:33
little exhausted but the fact that I
14:35
have people wow that guy is driving in
14:38
really loud truck the fact that so many
14:41
people are in my corner and sharing in
14:43
the enjoyment really does help me get up
14:47
every day excited to go and do new stuff
14:49
and to make new memories and I am always
14:53
thinking of the future and one day I
14:55
will not be able to do what I'm doing
14:58
now so I'm I'm trying to do as much as
15:00
humanly possible while I have the
15:04
opportunity that's kind of my mindset
15:06
and the game plan for my life right now
15:08
thanks for watching I'll see you guys
15:10
tomorrow the
15:12
Vlog is over well that was a little
15:14
change up wasn't it that's a big bucket
15:18
of chicken
