I took my girls to the original park when they were little. The oldest is now 21, every time we went to Williamsburg she would ask about the president heads. I just sent her your video, she is so excited! It was truly an awesome site to see. Cannot wait to check out the new location of the president heads.
I had heard about this last year and read an article on the heads and how they were removed from the original park. Williamsburg has so much history so this is definitely a place that gets over looked. They look huge!
That's exactly what the guide said too. They're a little bit off the beaten path, so unfortunately they often got overshadowed by all the other well known historical destinations. And they were much bigger than we had imagined! Each one measures between 18-22 feet tall!
@@AndrewandMegan for sure. I found you on Instagram, looking at places to go. You should check out some of the ones we have been to on my profile 😁 @modern_mtn_man
@@CSGPhotos badass! In that case you were right down from them! The guide there did say that there wasn’t a lot of marketing for the park when it was built. Sounds like he was right!
It's actually creepy because they were lined up and they went bankrupt and so they had to put holes in each head so they can carry them to the farm but only one in particular fell/broke is Abraham Linkin for the backstory

You’re welcome and thank you for the kind words James! We’re really glad you enjoyed it ❤️

You have inspired me to go, and I will bring boots.
Haha boots are highly recommended!
Dude this is awesome! I’m gonna take my wife here!
Awesome, man! It’s definitely a cool thing to spend a Saturday or Sunday doing. We spent a lot more time there than we expected.

@@shanemedeiros4715 awesome! Followed you back. Some great nature shots!
I lived in Williamsburg when I was still in the Army, and I never knew this was there!
Oh cool! When were you stationed there?
The statues were originally in Presidents Park, which opened in 2004
@@AndrewandMegan I was stationed at Eustis as a Blackhawk Helicopter Instructor in 2006.

@@AndrewandMegan I worked for Busch Gardens at the same time. I spent most of my free time there.
Excellent blog. Greetings from Texas.
Thanks Roger and greetings to you too!

Creepy indeed! And thanks for sharing some more of the backstory
@@AndrewandMegan no prob
Wish u went before they went bankrupt. It was genuinely fun as a kid.
Megan and I can only imagine! What a fun memory though. Glad you got to see the original park!
