There’s something so relaxing about these small town/back roads videos. There’s so much subtle beauty and charm across the country and it’s wonderful you’re able to share this with us.
That bird walking down the tracks is called Killdeer, but we always called them Kildee’s. They always have their nest in gravel parking lots on the ground. If you approach their nest the mother always runs off and will flap a wing like it’s injured to get you away from her nest!! Born & raised in Kentucky! Great video Adam👍
In California they like to lay nests in the gravel driveways in my area. As a 30 year UPS driver I always had to be cautious of their nests. Most of the home owners would put little flags or markers designating where the nests were.
@@theathjr I worked for a gas utility company & every town we served had a town border station, a big gravel lot, I would locate the nest & put line marker flags or cones around it so our company maintenance vehicles wouldn’t run over them!
Hey, Cynthiana. That's where I live, glad u stopped by our town. Some news about the Rohs Opera House, it is our movie theater and used for plays and all kinds of stuff. My wife's uncle is part owner of Rohs. It is listed as the 3rd most haunted place in Kentucky. It was built in 1871. It's owner's H.A. Rohs and his son Karle are the grandfather and great grandfather of the actor ,Chris O'Donnel the actor. It still has the original seats and lights in it. You should really come by one day and let me introduce you to the owners and let u tour the place and maybe see some ghost. It is really cool inside and would make a great video blog for your channel.
One of my favorite experiences was working for Allegiant Air doing promotions around the country and driving back roads to certain events. One of those was working a NASCAR race in Sparta, KY and driving the back roads at night to my hotel. Beautiful towns, sunsets, rolling green hills, horse ranches, and fire flies! Thanks for taking these paths
I just love the rolling hills and all those trees...Kentucky and Tennessee have the best views of any. The people are the most down to earth and friendly too. Great video! Can't wait to see tomorrow's ...it's gonna be my b-day! Yay!!!
That old dilapidated theater was one the coolest finds ever!! Love that you were able to open the front lobby door and see in through the backside. Something so eerie about it
The ol theater in Falmouth ky has been closed since the flood of March 1997 it used 2 be the old pastime theater. The flood almost wiped Falmouth and buttler off the maps.
The theater is full of mold BC the former owner after the flood instead of a proper cleanup just sprayed it out with water and it done more harm than good let alone it still has flood mud in it.
You show the most soothing and quiet backroads and areas ive ever seen. I could sit outside n soak up some sun n listen to them birds chirp for days. One of these vlogs is gonna have me wanting to move to a location you feature. They beat the hustle n bustle of these over crowded areas i love in for sure
For you railfans out there,,in 1979 we were in Falmouth to photo the L&N railroad. In town was a local with a grey painted L&N ALCO C 420. Then all of a sudden a north bound autorack train came blowing by with a Family lines painted ALCO C 630 on the point!!!!! Those were the days!
Really enjoyed that vlog Adam, no hustle or bustle, loving all the old buildings and hearing the birds chirping nice ambiance Thankyou 77 days on the road that's a long time
I love these small town videos. I grew up in a small town (72 people in my graduating class) and I have fond memories of it. In fact, I moved back close to my hometown and still attend their annual Christmas parade every year.
Never thought I’d see Jellico, TN on TH-cam! My dad and I spent the night there 40 years ago driving from South Carolina to Springfield, KY (near Danville). I must’ve been 9 or 10, I’m days away from being 50 now. My dad was taking me to visit Centre College in Danville where he graduated. Kentucky sure is beautiful!
What I appreciate about these particular backroads videos is, although I've been to all 50 states, odds are I will never visit these places. The history and importance of these unknown places are just as, if not more, important than the cities and touristy areas. Decades from now when you are on your deathbed and look back in life, know that these vlogs have made the world a better place. Peace and safe travels man.
Big fan of Kentucky. Crossroads of the Midwest and the South. Mountains to the east, river valleys to the west. Have enjoyed my time in the Bluegrass State.
Always great to get off the beaten path and see "real America" ....the bird on the tracks was a kill deer....they are a protected migratory bird , the nest on gravel on the ground , their eggs look like gravel , perfect camouflage....stay safe ...enjoy ....🙏❤
hello, i'm Jorge, a pilot from Lima peru, working with LATAM airline. i came across your page here through the utube suggestion for me so i thought to write to you. where are you from? Write me when you can and do have a nice day and may God bless you.
This is a great video here. I like it when you go in a small town and I get to see things I normally would never get to see. Thank you for inviting me along.
I love central ky so much, you have really the best of all worlds, mountains east of you, flatter lands to the west, and tons of lakes and small towns to visit. Hopefully you are heading towards the smokies
and you really went out of the way if you went through Irvine lol, and a lot of the tracks you see in KY are not used often maybe once, twice a day if that, a lot of them are old coal train tracks, williamsburg is a college town pretty much with university of the cumberlands near by
I live near Lexington and am familiar with some of these towns you went through. Amazing how you avoid the bland suburbia that covers a lot of the area and just show the fascinating crumbled areas. Thank you!

Have you been to Hurricane Mills yet, where Loretta Lynn lived? That's where my grandmother is from, we still have a family home there. I'm not sure what is looks like since it flooded but it is a beautiful place. If you go you have to skip a rock in the creek.
Adam The Woo at his best...... love the backroads and small towns. A piping hot caffeinated beverage (thank Heaven for 7 eleven) and cookies. Ridin' shotgun with the Woo. Thanks Adam
Wow! Putting around those backroads and towns on my motorcycle would be awesome. Someday I’ll leave this hell hole called AZ and move more green pastures. Literally😆
The old panel truck is sweet! Welcome to Kentucky. I remember you stopping here with your Dad last year around Corbin. Very nice to see some towns I haven't been to.
@@NocturnalSummoning45 He does mention it, looking up at it. He probably checked it out, and if it was a working phone, I'm sure we would have seen it.
It's crazy that you're pretty much back to where you started when you first started this long cross Country road trip. You are getting real close to home now.

My wife used to work at a towing company in Florence. I would stop in to see her and post on Facebook from there just because it said my location was “Sugartit, KY.”
my best friend lives in butler and i live in falmouth so it’s crazy to see these places i see every day on youtube! and im very tempted to go investigate the inside of the old theater now that i know i can apparently just walk in
What a cool T.W.D mural I love that show and how accurate they are with the original comic book! That 54 panel truck was badass! I'm kinda a fan of Kentucky now thanks Adam for showcasing old American towns!
In the first issue of the comic book, the hospital, the sheriff’s office, and Rick’s house are literally illustrations of the real places in Cynthiana. Harrison Memorial Hospital is the name of the hospital there. The original artist Tony Moore who helped Kirkman create the comic drew the real life places. It’s pretty cool to see the comic Vs the real place.

The old truck is a 1954 Chevrolet Panel Delivery (It's the one year only grille that gives it away). They were a popular form factor before manufacturers started making dedicated van bodies. Deliveries were based on either pickup truck chassis or station wagons.

well said Michele
Totally agree with you
Ditto!
This is where I’m from and I’ve been watching him for years it was so weird to see!
Do you follow along on google maps like I do??
Anytime you get near Lexington KY you’re going to be in the most beautiful scenery you’ve ever seen!
Nothing like those old untouched small towns. It's like stepping back in time.😎😎😎😎
This is my kind of road trip. Staying off the Interstates, and just traveling through all these small towns.
For someone who ACTUALLY HAS LIVED in small towns almost half his life, this certainly takes me back!

If you approach their nest the mother always runs off and will flap a wing like it’s injured to get you away from her nest!! Born & raised in Kentucky! Great video Adam👍
Great post Dicky. I was gonna say the same thing. Those little fellers are like mini road runners. Haha
In California they like to lay nests in the gravel driveways in my area. As a 30 year UPS driver I always had to be cautious of their nests. Most of the home owners would put little flags or markers designating where the nests were.
I've seen them in DuPage county Illinois. Didn't know what kind of birds they were. Thanks!

Got chased MANY times by those d@mn birds growing up.. walking to the pond in the back of our property to fish... They sucked.
Adam you have succeeded in surpassing any first minute video that you have ever posted. The viaduct and the train passing was captured perfectly.

Punkyville was totally cool!!! It was an old west style town and is still in great shape!!! What a find!!! Attaboy, Adam the Woo!!!
Kentucky is NOT the old west!
@@joinjen3854 he's talking about the OLD old west. back when venturing across the Appalachians was "heading west"

You have a great sense of humor. Terrific videos and I enjoy your comments.
Another home run!!! Thank you for taking us along
Loved the old theater
Adam your channel has provided much appreciated content on your adventures. It has been a great journey.
Really enjoyed that vlog Adam, no hustle or bustle, loving all the old buildings and hearing the birds chirping nice ambiance Thankyou 77 days on the road that's a long time
Yes I just love the history of the south so beautiful there through out the south and all the southern states thanks my friend.😊
I love the birds chirping too. prior to watching this i had a live railfan video going which had birds chirping. The chirping is so peaceful.
My favorite nature sound! Closely followed by "wind in the trees", and rushing water.
I love these small town videos. I grew up in a small town (72 people in my graduating class) and I have fond memories of it. In fact, I moved back close to my hometown and still attend their annual Christmas parade every year.
Epic journey. I found your channel about 3 months before the start of Covid lockdowns. You're the key person that kept me sane. Love u buddy.
I love these backroad city tours, some of my favorite content on TH-cam.
Never thought I’d see Jellico, TN on TH-cam! My dad and I spent the night there 40 years ago driving from South Carolina to Springfield, KY (near Danville). I must’ve been 9 or 10, I’m days away from being 50 now. My dad was taking me to visit Centre College in Danville where he graduated. Kentucky sure is beautiful!

Always start the day with hot coffee ☕️ (and donuts 💪🍩)

My Dad was born and raised in Marion County in the middle of Kentucky. A truly beautiful state.
Good job great trip thanks for sharing
What a beautiful opening!!

Wow, I’m really impressed and frankly surprised at how charming all of these places are.
This is a great video here. I like it when you go in a small town and I get to see things I normally would never get to see. Thank you for inviting me along.
I. Love. Ky. Amen. Thank. You
Great video, thanks for sharing, makes me wonder where all the people are.
Adam. Thank you for you videos. They are a big help in getting me through, what has been a crappy year health wise. They are a big help. Thank you
Yes! Escapism at it's best...taking us to other times and peaceful places. Sincerely hoping your health improves James!

You need to make an 8 hour long video! I could listen to you talk and walk all day through these strange & quaint little towns!
I've lived in this area all my life and have seen all this a million times but it was interesting seeing it all from a different perspective.
Thanks for the tour of old American Love your channel Enjoy it thank you thanks again
Magnificent.
KY GIRL here, looking forward to your vlog.
Both my parent are from Kentucky, although im not, but ive always love visiting family when i come there, it always felt like home to me

The old panel truck is sweet! Welcome to Kentucky. I remember you stopping here with your Dad last year around Corbin. Very nice to see some towns I haven't been to.
I guess I'm the only one that gets excited about a phone booth.......Adam just walked right past one in Punkyville :)
I just commented about him overlooking it too. I was shocked. I was like "dude! What are you doing?!, there's a old phone booth right there!" Lol
@@NocturnalSummoning45 He does mention it, looking up at it. He probably checked it out, and if it was a working phone, I'm sure we would have seen it.
Right Tom, lol, same here! 10¢ to make a ph. call. Miss those days.
Truly love these videos Mr. The Woo!
love the big fella bench joke.. cats got claws but those claws have been clipped some. Daphne would be proud.. I won't tattle on you😂
It's crazy that you're pretty much back to where you started when you first started this long cross Country road trip. You are getting real close to home now.
I have lived in Kentucky all my life. Never knew there was a Punkyville. Loved this vlog. Looking forward to the Tennessee backroads vlog.
There is also a small spot in Kentucky that’s called Monkeys Eyebrow😂

As always, the photography is great and the commentary is sublime!
Kentucky has some great town names.
I live in Sugartit. Yes. Sugartit.
Apparently, many Kentucky towns were named by high school boys.
Bahahaha I’m from Possum Trot!!! Our state has the BEST names!!!
Big bone...and many others
My wife used to work at a towing company in Florence. I would stop in to see her and post on Facebook from there just because it said my location was “Sugartit, KY.”
I'm in Clays ferry... Lived in KY my whole life and Sugartit is a first for me.... That's hilarious.
I always thought big bone lick was hilarious.
@@chrisbailey9377 Sugartit is super tiny area in Florence not far from the Florence Y’all water tower. It’s just more fun to say “I live in Sugartit”.

With the interstates so many, many of these small towns see so little traffic anymore.
