  2. Awesome video content..have been playing catch up after just recently finding your channel..really enjoy your off the beaten path content showing the real Florida was curious as to why the coins were left on the headstones and according to what I found they were usually left at solders markers as a sign of respect for their service to the nation..for civilians it appears to show that they are left toet the family know someone was there paying respect to there loved ones…either way very reverant in my opinion. Truly appreciate all of your efforts to bring these videos to all of us. Thank you 😊👣🇺🇸🏞️🌅🌤️

  5. Dang, a few miles down the road from my homestead! I had no idea about the boardwalk and seeing the amount of leaves even the locals seem not to know it was there. I'll have to make a day trip down there as it's so close to my place!

  6. So many cool things to see in this sweet little town. We love how much reverence you always pay at the small town cemeteries. Also, DJ Kitty for real!! It was too cute watching him follow you on camera!

  7. I love all your videos. I started watching yours when you and Adam the Woo went to Ray's games. And have been watching them ever since. In fact, you guys have made me a Ray's fan. I'm from Colorado and not a Rockies fan. So can't wait to see Ray's play Rockies here in Denver. Thanks again for your videos!

  8. I love these videos. Being a Central FL resident it gives me ideas of places to go. I've already mapped out where that honey stand is to visit next time I go to Bartow. Keep up the great work.

  9. Tampa Jay I like the roadside videos and nature trails quite a lot. I may incorporate some old roadside attractions stuff from time to time in my videos. I finally got my channel up now. I have a few videos up now. Two are nature trails. When you get a chance, check 'em out. I will appreciate it a lot.

  10. I've noticed lately that you're adding more music over parts, like in your intro to this one. I like that! It inspires me to keep attempting to do that with mine…It can be frustrating trying so hard to get the right music to invoke the right emotion (while also avoiding copyright claims)…but then seeing videos that don't use music at all & thinking, "Well they're getting views anyway…Maybe I shouldn't bother either?" But the music adds to the experience.

    Also (& this one is really random) love that you mentioned Mel Tillis. Not long before he passed, he performed for awhile at the theatre I was working at. Brings back some funny memories (…Most of which are…um…probably not PG rated enough to add to this comment)!

  11. Thanks for the memories Jay. Haven't been down that way in 25 years or so. Like someone mentioned I always remember calling it Home-Lin. Great bass fishing in that area. Even remember a lake being called "Million Dollar Lake" (or something like that) because one of the phosphate mines got too close to the peace river and the river filled up the hole. They fined the mine a million dollars which is how it got its name.
