It is great that you promote local businesses along the way. Small towns can always use help. Buy an ice cream cone, eat at a local restaurant, or, in your case, buy a beer or two. It is always sad to see little towns with boarded up shops. And every little town has history and interesting little nooks and crannies. Thanks for another great video! I always love the birds I hear in the background.
I'm 65 and my Dad told me when I was maybe 9 or so that one day people will be sorry they did not think about the locals that serve them all their lives.. when they are all gone.. Son buy what ya can local even if it cost more.. unless it's a truly unfair price.. buy it... it will keep you employed.. and them happy ! He was right.. we are now watching his words play out around the world.... but mostly here in the USA.. Sad !!! Such a waste.. all to save a few dollars to end up with no small towns left..
You may mention if they have grocery stores and resturaunts..delis..cafes etc. Food and supplies are a big draw...at least for me. Love the peace and beauty and bird sounds

Hi, Slim, I wonder sometimes if you enjoy other youtubers' videos the way we enjoy yours - do you truly know how really delightful it is to have such an interesting and pleasurable channel as yours to look forward to and enjoy? You're a real gift, thank you just bunches!!
Slim, ya' did it, again! You've managed to get a beautiful campsite, explore the area, share the "Pelican Ballet on the Lake" (oh, by the way, great musical accompany) and a gorgeous sunset in the video. Love your work, man!! Y'all be Safe!
It's the kind and gentle folks in Alabama that make it worth visiting. They'll talk about everything and family; take time start a conversation with a local, you won't be disappointed.
It is best to FRY okra rather than boil it. Then you avoid the slime. The bird you heard in town was undoubtedly a mockingbird. I miss the South in the winter but NOT in June-July-August!
Pelicans🎶🎵🎶🎵 just beautiful with the music👍👍👍👍 Having your adventures, how marvelous!! Take care. Taking us where I'll never get to go, but seeing it through your eyes, I THANK YOU🤗🤗🤗🤓
Welcome Slim! I live in North Alabama, just a couple of rock throws from you (but they made me quit throwing rocks) I am so glad you are enjoying our beautiful state
I have been following you Slim for a long time, i don't comment but 1 or 2 time's, this time i want to say i enjoy your video's so much, you are a great person and the United States welcomes you with open arms..hugs from wisconsin. .
Hi Slim, that was a beautiful park and spot you had. Very interesting the little quiet town of Stevenson. Nice of you to say to encourage the local shops, tourists must be their livelihood. As for your supper, I will skip that recipe. Hihi... We laughed so much as you described your meal. A good thing you had that other beer to wash it down. Happy trails and stay safe.
Hey Slim, you're about 60 - 70 miles from Scottsboro AL, where you'll find Unclaimed Baggage, where lost luggage from airlines around the world ends up. Worth a stop to look, I've gotten a bit of camping gear there in years past. Good video.
How much is it to get inside the unclaimed baggage place?? Sounds like an interesting place to find a lot of strange things I'm sure to practical things, the camping items would be what I'd like to find...
@@Regina0964 they have everything people take on (or return from) airline trips with. More clothes than anything. But a bit of everything else. No admission charge when I went, doubt there is one now. It's worldwide, not just USA.
Stevenson is about 90 minutes away from Cullman, Al where i spent summers in my teenage years....we stayed at a house in the middle of nowhere right on the lake......and it was up at dawn and explore the forrest and ride jet skis and all kinds of fun things......
Glad you found the cave I was talking about! Hope you got your groove back from the caves. Sorry the weather has been so bad the past week. Happy Trails!
Americans sure have their history and displays sorted out. IMO, better than any country. They just do things right, everything is easily accessible and explained, friendly people. I never hesitate to head south whenever I can.
I am from Louisiana ,& our state bird is the Brown Pelican. I am accustomed to observing these big birds forcefully dive into the water for their meal or sit on wooden posts or fly noisily together as a flock. I must say that I have never seen a white pelican before. They almost remind me of the swans at City Park in New Orleans, Surprisingly, Their bird behavior (swimming & fishing together) was much more graceful than the brown pelican. The music was perfect for the "Pelican ballet" . Loved it...
Cool place. I will check it out. I live in Georgia, actually 40 minutes away from Athens where your beer was made. Safe travels. You actually camped less than an hour from me in Eatonton, Ga. Would have enjoyed meeting you.
THANK YOU for being you! I'm in my 70's and had always thought these years would be peaceful and contemplative. Not the case: two of my previous employers continue to ask for analysis and advice. One is a financial institution - they are extremely concerned over the current state of the economy. The other is a government technology group - they also have their concerns. When I tune into your videos I feel suddenly relaxed - you cannot underestimate what this means to me. Again, thanks.
HI SLIM 👋 THANK YOU FOR THE HISTORY LESSON 🙏 LOVE THE BACK ROADS MOST OF THE TIME MORE RELAXING . SUNSET WAS BEAUTIFUL . SAFE TRAVELS ! HAVE FUN ! ENJOYED 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 THANK YOU 🙏
I loved that you got to see some of our area. I live in Decatur Alabama to the west of Stevenson. It’s a beautiful area. I love your videos. Stay safe.
I was just talking to a friend yesterday about snotty okra. I like it snotty or fried, but especially in soups. It’s all good. North Carolina I’m happy you’re enjoying our South.

He does at least a few, can see them at the bottom of his channel.
Everytime I see one of Slims videos pop up just got to watch..

Hi Slim I love historical stories. The pelican water ballet was fantastic.
It's the kind and gentle folks in Alabama that make it worth visiting. They'll talk about everything and family; take time start a conversation with a local, you won't be disappointed.
My main man slim. Its always a good day when you post.

Slim, you never cease to entertain us. Thanks.
There’s such charm and fine folks in small neighborhood towns. You found a jewel!
Slim, you've got the life. Full belly, tasty beer, beautiful scenery. All needs fulfilled and more. What a joy.
Pelicans🎶🎵🎶🎵 just beautiful with the music👍👍👍👍 Having your adventures, how marvelous!! Take care. Taking us where I'll never get to go, but seeing it through your eyes, I THANK YOU🤗🤗🤗🤓

What a deal. Beautiful place, but you always find amazing places. We also love your nature photography,

I have been there and Mark is right it has some unique items at scottsboro. You could spend a whole day in that place.
Give it a try Slim.

Great video good job thank you

Slim, what a treat. Wonderful video.
Stevenson reminds me of the 2000 movie “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?” Thanks, Slim for the timely video!
One of the best movies ever made 👍

Yes, these videos are so relaxing to watch! Really enjoy them!!

Don't you just love that okra! I have been told that it is quite good when properly cooked.
"My kind of place"...peaceful and quiet slow pace thank you sir

Hi Philip, happy to hear my videos give you a little relief from a hectic world. Sounds like you could use a cozy little stream to sit by. Thanks! SP
I love the special eco system you shared. All your videos are perfection.
look like a good place to stop for a night or 2 thanks slim
Sweet little town for sure..
Nice new chair... unique is an interesting way of saying maybe not again... subtle and relaxing is best... Thank You Slim...

Deliciously fun. Thank you. Glad to are staying in touch.
When are we going to get some updates on the lake house? I am really looking forward to see how that turns out.
Probably not going to get many updates while he's traveling in the American south.
Still snowing up north, I would expect not until it quits. We are in the northern US and had over 2” last week.
My paternal Grandmother was from Stevenson, AL! The family house is still standing!
Loved the filming of the Pelicans and the added music and that 2nd beer seemed to hit the spot!
I love the subtle videos ❤. The bird ballet and sunset were lovely. I rnjoy the quick meal ideas too.
Hola, I loved the soft music you put with the white birds, I feel like I was seeing ballet.
Love seeing your journeys through small town Americana :)
I wait in anticipation for your next video. I could have watched and listened to the ballet sequence for another hour or two. Thanks
Thanks for your time at that nice town, I love your vids, informative and interesting, thanks again, Garygary
Love that evening sunset.
WOW. What a great video. Thanks for taking us along. Pelican water ballet was great. Safe travels and stay warm.

You make some of the best videos. Thank you for sharing your travels.
