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.
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.
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!
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.”
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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!
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
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.
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
That bird is called a killdeer. We're in they're extremely possessive over their nests and often nest in the ballast around railroad tracks as it provides a great camouflage for their eggs. They are also the type of bird that if you get near them and their nest they will act injured and flop around to draw you away from the nest.
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!
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.
These little towns reflect they way the whole country used to be except of course big cities like Chicago, NYC, LA, etc and me & my family used to ride around in these wonderful rural areas when I was a child in the 1950's, 1960's and have a wonderful time. And oh god he's using a real paper map like my dad used to use.
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 ....🙏❤
You was really close to my neck of the woods, I’m from Beattyville, which is next county over from Irvine Kentucky, if you ever come back up and go to natural bridge or red river gorge just let me know I own a motel and we will hook ya up with a free room and some south cooked meal
My grandmother grew up east of Irvine, literally on the first mountain. She moved north like her entire group of brothers/sisters during the 30s and 40s for jobs in Indiana and Ohio. Wife and I almost bought property right down from where she was born and rasied. Its like home there we love it
Technically that was a spillway not a waterfall, but it's your channel and you can call it whatever you like. I love the back road trips it reminds me why it's called "America the Beautiful"
Hey, you came close to my area! I live not too far from Rockholds, Ky. The old buildings on the Kentucky side of Jellico were destroyed when a train car exploded years and years ago. It blew out windows in houses for miles around, injured and killed several people and left a huge crater where the train car had been. There’s been at least one book that I know of written about it. It’s a very interesting story.

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.

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!
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.
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!
@@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!
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.
This is my kind of road trip. Staying off the Interstates, and just traveling through all these small towns.
Nothing like those old untouched small towns. It's like stepping back in time.😎😎😎😎
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”.
I love small town America
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"
Adam you have succeeded in surpassing any first minute video that you have ever posted. The viaduct and the train passing was captured perfectly.

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 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!!!
Happy Birthday!! Enjoy
@@Regina0964 Thank you!!!🤗
Happy belated birthday
@@FixIt1975 thank you!!! 😊
I just managed to switch off from life for the last 20 minutes. Thank you Adam 👍
My Dad was born and raised in Marion County in the middle of Kentucky. A truly beautiful state.
I. Love. Ky. Amen. Thank. You
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 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
@@HumanDissection 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.
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.
I worked there when I was highschool, pre flood 97

Adam your channel has provided much appreciated content on your adventures. It has been a great journey.
"Punkyville" phone booth and no exclamation from the Woo? We didn't see that coming~ Loving this part of the road trip~

I love these backroad city tours, some of my favorite content on TH-cam.

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.
Thank you, I am in LOVE with Kentucky
Another home run!!! Thank you for taking us along
Love going along with you on these trips! I can no longer travel far so I live vicariously through your lens.

Always start the day with hot coffee ☕️ (and donuts 💪🍩)
Aww you went to my hometown Irvine!!!!
GREETINGS FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA!!! WE REALLY ENJOY YOUR SMALL TOWN VIDEOS. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR GREAT PRODUCTIONS !!!
The bird on the train track was a “killdeer “ Thank you for your great content. I’ve enjoyed every mile! Safe travels Adam :)
Nice catch with the coal train on that bridge!
Really enjoying this series, especially the rural areas.
Two Thumbz 👍👍
My cousins worked in a coal mine until dip💩 Obama shut it down!

My Dad too! And God forbid if you didn't handle it right, you get a yellin'!
Wow, I’m really impressed and frankly surprised at how charming all of these places are.
Thank you Adam...
Adam there is something cleansing to the soul to see through a clear lens
This is the Daily Woo I adore going to the real America 🇺🇸 I would love to visit places like this take it easy Adam👍👍
What a beautiful opening!!
This was how I first found you years ago, Abandoned Places. Love the old theater.
That intro was soooooo coool. Loved it
Good job great trip thanks for sharing
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!
Magnificent.
I love those sweet little towns.
This was a great episode. I love the small town finds.
Love your intro
LOVE the back roads brother!
Love the rural areas..
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 ....🙏❤
Yet another great vlog Adam the Woo. Glad we joined you. Safe travels. God is your pilot. 💕🙏🏼
This is what I like wondering through old towns

Actually its a dam on the Kentucky River .
Adam, I'm having my hot caffeinated and watching your small towns and backroads. It's a great show, please keep up this content.
Love love love your back roads videos🥰🇬🇧
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!
@@margietucker1719 thank you very much and you are very correct
Right in my neck of the woods today, Adam. Pronunciations are “fowl-muth,” “sin-thee-ann-uh,” and “er-vin.” Awesome seeing you document these places.
Thank you. My family is from Mt. Olivet. Listening to him mispronouncing the names of these towns was painful.
Truly love these videos Mr. The Woo!
I'll watch you do anything Adam. But I do love these small town/backroad videos more than Disney stuff.
As always, the photography is great and the commentary is sublime!
Oh my sweet Kentucky home! Loved living there for many years
Super amazing
Hey Adam, it’s been a great road trip so far. You’ve seen a lot of cool places and done a lot of cool things. Thanks for bringing us along!

Mother was born in Cynthiana in 1933. Thank you for showing that small town. Always loved Kentucky
Now you're in my neck of the woods...Williamsburg, KY, and Jellico, TN.
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😂
Thanks for the ride in the country. Nice to get away from the dense traffic.

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

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.
