- Exploring abandoned places is my hobby and finance it all out of my own pocket and the donations I get from the people who love watching the documentaries we make... A small donation would be greatly appreciated! ► / brosofdecay

It has been a quarter of a century since the last person Josephine spends her last moments inside the house, now the place lays desolate and forgotten waiting for its inevitable demolishment.
Together with her husband Patrick, she started living here in the 1930s and over the course of six decades, they raised two beautiful children, got married, and lived a long life with beautiful memories. At the start of their relationship, Patrick was a truck driver and worked countless hours away from home, this led Josephine to find something of her own and she decided to put her passion for flowers into a business. Josephine started a flower shop in town, and it was a great success from the very beginning. At a certain point, Patrick decided to give up his job to help Josephine in the business.
They both lived inside the house until the very end, Patrick passed first and Josephine lived out her last days alone until she passed away in 1997.
She turned to the age of 96 years old, and at that age, she was still taking full care of herself, while living inside the house.
After her passing the children and grandchildren did not show much interest in the house, after the filming of this video we talked to one of the relatives and asked him why it was left like this, he said he just didn’t care too much about it. This left us clueless as to why…
Today we will show you the remains of what once was there everything!

Abandoned House Abandoned Mansion Urbex Exploring
#abandoned #exploring #explore - Zábava
So sad that none of the family wanted this house.😢
maybe it is the fact that it's just on the street.
Noise from traffic would be unbearable plus more likely be robbed. Repairs likely to be too costly, house was at the end of its life cycle.
@@antidoteify Yes, too close to the Highway. Not safe for anyone. It probably wasn't that close when it was build. The Road looks widened at the beginning of the video.
Well it is probably out of the middle of nowhere in a semi dead town. But you would have though the kids would have sold it so they would not get stuck with the taxes. But being so close to the street is a turn off. Of course when the house was built it was probably just a dirt road. It is always best to either buy all the land you see around your home or move to a established areas. We had moved to several areas that were nice and quiet but because of growth the nice street with hardly any cars ended up with 6 lane hwy. The small grocery store about a block from us be taken down and have a Walmart to replace it. When we heard the Walmart we moved.
@@cathyburrows8162 Actually you would be less likely because there are car passing by. If you are going to break into a home you want were other can not see you as easily. Like a home that has a nice long driveway and cannot be seen from the street. This is probably why everything in the home is not destroyed. In fact I a squatter tried to live there the police would know right away.
Lesley, I enjoy your show so much. As an older American, I'd like to help you understand a few things you've seen here, for future reference, because I really do hope you'll explore more homes here.
1. The chair in the kitchen with folding stairs is multiple purpose. It's meant for a child, to bandage a knee, or cut his hair, or clean his ears. The child can rest his feet on the closest stair, and then as he gets older, on the lower stair. But it also serves as what we call a "step stool," a small ladder to help shorter people reach things on the top shelves of the kitchen cabinets.
2. I know "Papa" is used for "Father" in many cultures, but not really here in the US so much. Here, "Papa" is an affectionate name for a grandfather. This lady clearly ran a "teleflora" shop, producing flower arrangements from her home for weddings, funerals, etc. Those tags would then go on the floral arrangements to honor the relations. For example, if grandchildren bought a flower arrangement for a grandfather's funeral, the "Papa" tag would be worked into those flowers.
3. The stove - any time you see the tin vent pipes behind a stove, it is meant to vent out the gases. So it is either wood (very rare, but you still see some wood stoves in homes from the 1950's) or gas (either LNG or propane).
4. The Eisenhower stamp - General Dwight D. Eisenhower led the American military force in Europe during WWII, and then became President of the US.
All of this is exactly correct. I’m a 68yo American.
Glad you commented. It was bugging me and I wanted to explain those things to them too. Also the heaters near the floor we always called base board heat. Grew up on Air Force bases and remember our houses always had these and the ones in the wall in the bathroom. They always made that clicking sound when you first turned them on. The smell of the dust burning off. Funny how you remember stuff like that. I’m 59
@@pj123xyz Baseboard heating is still common in Western PA, where I lived for a decade. And it still clicks, and still smells on the first use. But it was the most even form of heat I've ever had, and I prefered it to forced air heat.
@@pj123xyz baseboard heaters are still in some places in IL and WI. I've seen them at jobs in older buildings. I remember that burning dust smell from the 24 years of living in our old apartment building. We had radiators, man I miss those. Forced air doesn't heat the house as well as radiators do.
@Deborah Donnelly Yeah except for the Papa part, I'd say that's still a more common term for father than grandfather in America and I called one of my grandfathers "Pop-pop."
When I drive past these old abandoned houses I try to imagine the people who lived there-the young bride-the children growing up-the dad leaving for work. It was once someone's pride and joy. As I am entering my later years in life I realize my treasured possessions will probably not mean much to my children and that is alright with me. They have their tastes that are not the same as mine. This house had some lovely furniture that you would think the family would have at least sold and I also wonder if maybe a grandchild had lived with them for a while-hence the child's clothing.
that is right they could have let a homeless person stay there and kept up the house since they didn't want or need it some people would rather tare it down burn it up or demolish it or let it go to ruin before they let someone stay there and that's ashame
and selfish 🙄
Yes!! That's why it's so important to write a book.
in my country, the abandoned house could be because the children also had passed away or they had a conflict with each other regarding the heir at law/inheritor among children.
The master bedroom is like a time piece and is in incredible condition!! It’s like stuck in time! Wow!!
You can tell she kept her home clean. It has held up well considering how long its been abandoned.
That’s why I think she got acutely I’ll and left the home. All the beds are still made.
Says something in favour of Steel Roofing.
The rooms are basically dust free clean and as if she left yesterday.
The furniture in the living room is from the 80’s
Yes!!
You have to die with a clean home. ❤. In case anyone comes to visit. We can't have them gossiping.
Poor Josephine. She would have been so embarrassed to have her house seen in this state of disrepair. Thank you for you respect.
The master bedroom that was Josephine’s bedroom looks immaculate almost like she would be still sleeping in there every night, what a beautiful house when you look past all the decay, such a shame it’s just left
Believe it or not, 25 years is nothing, only the humidity and dust make it older and more interesting, great job
As a person who has purchased 4 condemned houses and revamped them it's heartbreaking to see these places fall to ruin.. I love the way you show them with them with care and respect.
I wish you would’ve bought my old family home before they demolished it.
He doesn't in this video.. When he shames ALL OF AMERICA about using disposable plates and cutlery. I've been watching his videos for 2 years now and I've seen many many many and I think almost all of them and I have never heard him once sit there and judge a country's culture about the condition of a home but yet he comes to America and judges us for some reason
@@NuckinFuts2215 p
@@axioncrypt1879 I understand the significance of not using paper plates and cups in your home. It’s about pride & not being lazy.
@@christina12311979 perhaps you didn't watch this video. Because if you had you might have noticed that this person was elderly and disabled so stop being so judgmental and ignorant
The mystery chair with the steps was for the kitchen so a woman could reach the upper cabinets. They were popular in the 50's. Old people tend to use paper plates because they don't have the energy anymore to both cook up a meal and then wash dishes. The one room with the teleflora is from her flower shop and I assume that was her office. The birdhouses was probably a promotional piece for Mother's Day at one time.
Jacqueline, you are so right about old people not having the energy to cook and do dishes after. Specially a 96-year-old!
Mom had a chair like that she sat in at the kitchen table.
@@felicialewis860
Your mom must have been a small woman. My grandmother had one of those chairs for us when we were kids. The child could feel independent when they could get on the high chair without help. These are still available today. I looked at some at Costco and Amazon but they had poor ratings. I LOVED THAT CHAIR AS A KID.
I agree about the paper plates and such....she was too old to handle dishes. It is pretty obvious that at one time she did use the corelle dishes in the cabinet. Fire king mixing bowls and more.....my favorite dishes.
@@deborahdonnelly8423 Lol.. yes she was actually way shorter than I am. Don't exactly know what her height was for as of now she has passed, but her head came to my chin and I"m 5.9.
There are a ton of reasons why a home is abandoned. All kinds of trauma and hardships; so it is best not to judge these families. Also, that little chair is a children's high chair that pulls up to the table.
While in my home country Philippines, there are so many homeless people. Some live in tiny houses in the slum area or nipa huts in rural areas. Its also common that in one house, there are 3 to 4 generations living. I just feel sad seeing big houses and mansion just being abandoned,. This mostly happens in the first world countries.
The Florence cook stove was actually so named for Florence, Massachusetts, the location where the kerosene burner was invented. The manufacturer dates back to 1880's. Cool explore!
The other bedroom was for the grown-up daughter when she came to help her mother.
Thanks for your kindness of Florence Korecen Burner 1880 year. Invented
So sad how the families don’t clean up the trash and dispose of things properly. Also it feels disrespectful to the people who have passed on. So much to learn from how the lived. I love seeing these videos.
it amazes me as well …… we had a rental property next door …… until it got sold ……. the owner was stuck with cleaning it up of all the furniture and trash the renters left …….. older generations would never think to leave a place dirty - trashed - full of furniture ….. its mind boggling …… even today - people selling their homes have no idea how to clean and clean up
Most of the "trash" is the pass possessIons of the lady who lived there and her family it is sad 😢 but the actual trash on the floor and such is probably most likely from squatters and people who are unauthorized to be in there especially in the winter....we don't truly know what happened in the past and what caused the complete abandoned of this family's home. xo💞🙏
These homes make me mad at the families. They are left to rot. Sell everything or donate stuff and sell the house. It’s like throwing away money.
It's just sad when all is left no matter what the the family feels I was very sad when I had to clean out my childhood home but I had so my dad could sell
It’s decay that makes the house look messy. It doesn’t look like it’s been looted.
And yes….that was a bedside radio or a portable radio, both popular up until the 80’s. I,had one as a child when I went camping (1960’s).
Everyone has or had a story - some are shared, some are not - thank you for letting us see these time capsules and the stories of those who lived there love your work -merci beaucoup
Oh I wish someone would come back and rescue some of the antiques.😊
It looks like they took what they wanted and left everything else behind. So sad, so much of that beautiful furniture was left. I have never understood, why people don't empty out the houses, particularly when they know that they don't want them and have no plans to maintain them.
I don’t get that either. My mom & my Aunt lived together Aunt passed first & then my mom. I gave away a lot of their stuff to my cousins. The rest we sold at a garage sale & what was left donated it to charity. We had to sell it because she had taken a second mortgage that I couldn’t afford to pay. I felt bad about that.
A lot of cash left behind …should have an estate sale…people are kinda stupid.
How life must have been there, all that furniture. I feel so sad for the lonely 96-year-old lady.
How do you know she was lonely? She had family.
It breaks my heart that the family isn’t interested in the house or contents. The basement really hit me with all the ice.
The decorations on the comforter on the bed are tassels.
And Leslie you are exactly the same age as my daughter!
You are so mature for your age. You have been raised to appreciate time capsules/historical homes that give us a peek at lives from the past. You have a gift of helping us "be there" with you. Thank you and may God bless your channel.!
The stool is called a step stool ,and is used to reach items from upper shelves ,those are steps .
Yes usually used in kitchens! I'm from the US
First of all her daughter has to be in her 70s at least. I would say the children's things are grandchildren or great- grandchildren. The cover is called a duvet. A lot of people used them. The woman had a flower shop, and all that stuff was from her business. The stamp is President Eisenhower, he was also well known during WW2. That is a sunroom in front. Hope you all take care.
I always call them bed spreads.
Josephine died in 1997 and she was 96, so born in 1901. So her daughter was probably born between 1921-1931 and probably dead also...
It appears as though she was a florist. And she must’ve done it out of her house. The credit card thing with Tele Flores and that was a company you can order with. The green stuff that was in those pots, those you get wet and it soaks up the water and then you can put fresh flowers in them. Bless her little heart. The New York license plate was from 1929. And the turtle with all the holes in it was another implement for displaying flowers. Excellent tour. I’m surprise there’s so much stuff left in there. Thank you Lesley. Love from California💜🤟🏻😎🇺🇸
Since they said she had a flower shop at the very beginning I applaud your detective work
Rest In Peace ! Josephine and Patrick
محزن جدا عندما تتخيل ان هذا المنزل في يوم من الأيام كان عامرا بالحياة
اشكرك يا ليزلي انت وداني على هذه المغامرات
You should go in wearing a mask. That air has spores that can affect your lungs eventually. Stay safe.
true
Where is this?
7:20 dude is 25? He is fine.
The stool with two steps is called a step stool in Louisiana where I was raised. You can sit on it as a stool or fold down the two steps and step up on them in a standing position to reach something off a high shelf. You & Danny are great together. Thank you for another wonderful abandoned home video!
That was actually a kitchen step stool. The steps folded down in order for someone to reach upper cabinet shelves. It did double duty as a stool for someone to sit on. Very popular in the forties and fifties, almost every household had one.
They still make and sell them!
I couldn’t believe it lol when I saw one in a Seventh Avenue catalog! They are pretty cool and sure come in handy!
If it's truly been abandoned since 1997 then it must been in excellent condition when she passed. It's a shame no one wanted it.
Exactly!
😢 that’s the same thing I said too.
Vielleicht haben Sie es nicht nötig gehabt das Haus zu übernehmen, aber man hätte es ja verkaufen können.
That was a crocheted doilie. The antique bedroom set was wonderful, just a shame it will just decay away. Interesting home too bad the family don't care about anything. Thank you all
That turtle is an air freshener. My grandpa had one when I was a kid. It was full of scented pellets that slowly released the scent through the holes over time.
That is 💔 that the family didn't sell the place for someone else to love. Thank you for the respect shown while touring. Her work desk looked just like my Mother and Father in laws. Brought back cherished memories. Her vanity stand was absolutely beautiful.
In the Midwest, a lot of people left the big, old homes during the energy crisis in the 70s. It was too expensive to heat and maintain, many people put trailers on the same property and lived in them, sad :( Families got smaller, and jobs disappeared. Also when the highways were built, many old houses ended up right on the road, like this one- family didn't want to live in them bc of being so close to the road.
Living that close to a major road, if a wreck were to happen the car could end up in your house!!!
@@karenniehues4786 true enough!
People think what is going on today is new. Yet people are like the 1970's or 1980's was so much better. For example you ask people how bad was crime it the 1980's qnd most will say it was fine. Yet the rate of crime was higher then it is today. While it maybe new in our young people lives most of understand if you look at history this country has had something every few years that effect people in a negative way. In the 1970's I remember my first bank account gave me 8% interest ( which should tell you how high interest was). In fact my first home mortgage was like 9% when I got my first mortgage in 1995. For some reason people always think today is the worse, when in fact we have been though so much more and some how made.
@@JAM661 You’re right. When I was in high school in the 1970s Mama told me the going interest rate at the time was 10%.
@@JAM661 everything after the 50s has gone to hell, and that is statistically verifiable
I Love watching these videos to see how the old trends were and the colors
Hello Zulie how are you doing with your family i do hope you’re safe from the Covid?
You guys are the best explorers. You stand out from the rest because of your attention to detail and your respect for the places you explore. Hat tip to you gentlemen.
You guys make smile,laugh, be saddened all at the same time. I hope you got to Niagara Falls! I’m about 4 hours from Albany. Born & raised in western New York. Lived in other states, but I really love it here(4seasons,beautiful country, NOT FLAT AS A PANCAKE,really dislike taxes etc. I’m being really nice about that) I only read the first couple comments so I’ll just mention a couple things. The heat was hot water( have it in my home) The bedspread things are called tassels & growing up we had a stool with steps we used to reach high things-cleaning up high etc. It’s amazing to me that the bedrooms were intact compared to the first floor. The first bedroom had such a beautiful vanity. Actually all that furniture in those c bedrooms were really nice. I’m guessing the blond bedroom set was 1950-1960’s. The drone footage made me think how that road was widened into 4lanes. Progress stinks when it’s right in your front lawn. Take care
Your such a lovely person and I feel so honoured to be able to watch all of your videos. I have never heard you curse or be disrespectful once and you always use the person's name numerous times through out your uploads . You have bags of respect and the camera man is super cool as well.
Respect to you both from UK 🇬🇧
He has used God’s name in vain. There has been many people ask him to out of respect to those that view him and believe in God to please not do it. I have been with him for along time. I unsubscribed because of his sarcasm that comes out sometimes, especially since he did the videos in USA. Making the remarks about paper and plastic silverware many elderly people have to use them because of the struggles of being elderly. I myself have a muscle disorder, 61 yrs old. I do use them because I can only stand for a short time and by the time I get done preparing a meal I’m wore out. My husband is 70 is had cancer, cemo, bone marrow transplant. We do what we must to get through a day. Someday these young people will old too. I came back to give him another chance to his channel because when he filmed over in his part of the country he seemed so respectful, but he has changed.
@@Cheetoluv maybe YOUR perfection could help him or even save him, you have a Savior Complex after all.
@@Cheetoluv I stopped watching a long time ago because of the use of God’s name in vain. This vid appeared in my feed just now. First thing he did was use the f*** word. Shameful! Bye!
@@happy2b773 this comment shows you hasn’t stopped at all. People are not perfect, neither you are, so stop judging a person, he is minding his business without harming anyone & providing content that is interesting for majority of people here.
@@Cheetoluv well, he doesn’t go into much details of every single case. He was talking about his friends who used plastic in their house without any need. Americans are also very defensive. Their way is always the best & the rightest.
It’s hard to fathom why family would treat a loved one’s home this way. Even if you don’t want anything, donate to someone in need. Sell contents and donate money in the memory of that lady.
Take care and wind down the Estate.
May God bless this lady and her husband. May they RIP ✝️
Interesting explore! The largest TV in the house was from the 1970’s. My parents had one exactly like it they purchased new in that year. Though this house is in a sad decay, the lady had beautiful taste in things in the home.
I always love watching your tours of the abandoned homes. I truly appreciate how you honor these old homes that the family has let go. I just can't imagine not wanting something that belonged to my family like this.
Hey BROS! Despite its decay, this American home has many incredible details.
Same here I agree with you!
Hello Celia how are you doing with your family i do hope you’re safe from the virus?
My parents had a chair like that. They used it for their younger grandchildren so they could sit at the table with the adults. The child was to big for a highchair yet to small for a regular chair. Phone books worked but were always slipping around. We would lower the steps to easily climb up to get to the seat. I'm not sure what those chairs were actually called. But that is what we used it for.

That piece of crochet in the two tier coffee table is called a doily. My mother (from Germany) used to make many of them while she was watching tv in the evening. They’re all very beautiful!
Over here, the poof is typically known as an ottoman. You guys are amazing, this property is only an 1.5 hour drive north from me. The calendar gave it away. Those white stitched things are doilies, and Dwight D. Eisenhower was our 34th President.
President from 1953 to 1961
I am here in the US. Yes the poof is referred tom s an ottoman. We don have poofs, but they are smaller and less expensive than ottomans that match the furniture.
And YES, we call those things doilies…..but to be honest, I haven’t seen them in a home since my great aunts used them on the arms of the LR chairs and sofa for protection.

Hey fellows!! The stole with steps helps you reach for tall items! Dates back to 50’s early 70’s! The other is called baseboard heating probably built when the home added a room!!!
(Stool)
I’m sure she made all kinds of flower arrangements for funerals, birthdays, anniversaries,etc. all the empty vases were used in her business.

this Canadian loves your commentary and the respect you show for these properties. Thank you Lesley.
Same here. Hello there Linda how are you doing with your family i do hope you’re safe from the Covid?
A really interesting place with so many beautiful memories! I love the green bedroom, it's sad nobody cares about the lady's past and belongings;
Your curiosity,excitement and joy,guys, are similar to a kid's in a candyshop:))) , just perfect for exploring!
Thank you for this great episode!
The stove from florance was maybe south Carolina distribution for that stove people were still using them in early 60s.late 50 to 60s lot of homes were just getting inside bathrooms I was born in 59 I can remember when my grandmother got a toilet and bathtub put in her house
Coolest thing in that house is that art peace, with the ladies back turned . Just beautiful
Leslie, you are truly an old soul! You speak with such reverence and nostalgia that it's hard to believe you're only 25.
21:50 that hole (heat vent) through the floor tells me this house is quite old. That type of heat vent was used before the days of modern forms of heating, when fireplaces were used to heat the home. Because heat rises, holes with metal grates were installed to allow the heat to reach the upper floors.
25:12 that's called a crocheted doily (doy-lee), and it's a beautiful hand-made piece.
32:50 the toilet is raised because it was very likely added after indoor plumbing was invented, and space was needed for the piping beneath it. This home most likely had an outhouse when it was first built. That tiny room was probably originally a closet. *NOPE! Slight correction:* When you looked into the storage area under the eaves, the old toilet is sitting in there. It was a manual toilet that had to be emptied by hand, so that room was definitely a bathroom to begin with, but the more modern flush toilet was added later, and hence the need for the raised platform to accommodate the plumbing.
38:30 that stringy bit hanging down is called a tassel.
47:45 that turtle is full of holes to poke flowers into for a centrepiece on the table.
I love your vids from the USA. I love seeing our country through the eyes of people from Europe. My relatives from Germany used to visit us and when we would show then around it was so sweet the way they reacted to things that we take for granted as Americans. I can remember my late cousin remarking "Schon!" whenever we took her to places. I hope at some point you will be able to visit New England, especially Aroostook County, Maine. There's lots of abandoned buildings up there.
That chair with the fold out steps IS actually used as a step stool to climb up and reach things in cupboards as well as being used as a chair.
Each time I watch these videos I see more how fragile life is.
And no matter how long we lived one day we have to leave this earth whether we want to or not.
Appreciate the life you have it's a gift with an expiry date on it.
Gratitude Gratitude Gratitude
Thanks for sharing well appreciated
Bros of Decay, ty 4 letting me escape from a mad world and into your world. So relaxing ty and God bless y'all
Hey Lesley, so great you were in the US. Always looking forward to your great explores.
Sad this house left to rot and falling apart but can't believe its right in front of power lines the family most likely didn't want the house because of memories or just didn't want to take care of it.
You are an old soul Lesley. I love how you make up stories about how they might have lived.
I love watching your video when Danny is around because you two can laugh each other and can share ideas to each other along the way of exploring...❤❤❤ you guys are cute together...
You guys are just lovely in the way you treat a mansion or a humble home with the same respect and care.💞

@@andychris7647 beat it
The home used to also have a beautiful Edsel out front but was unfortunately taken out about a year ago. The car was definitely a cool addition to the house. Keep up the good work 🔥
Loved these charming old homes in the US and so glad that you and Danny are exploring here.. I live in VA and there are lots of places to explore all over this state..The compassion and respect shown for the property and its belongings is just immeasurable.. Thanks Lesley and Danny!
Those hanging lids and the pots that go with them are awesome and last forever. I have one. It was my mother's, and I use it very often. I love the vanity. Someone should take it.
Hey hey, dear Lesley, That story of the flowerlady sounds really interesting, and I am already very excited to watch your latest video
and - of course - listen to your background story about this already very derelict location. - Despite of the obvoius traces of decay
this once certainly quite beautiful house is still looking very idyllic. - The beautiful lady in the 1960-ies fashion on your photo reminds
me somehow of a filmstar of that period, because she is looking so very glamorous and attractive. - Hope to meet you and Danny soon!
Wishing you all the best, many hugs, peace and kindest regards from nice and sunny Switzerland.
@Willy Egger Greetings from Alabama! Hope you are doing well.
Bless you willy . Such a lovely comment you made and very interesting as well . We learn so much from people's comments . Would love to go to Switzerland 🇨🇭. My dream ...
Regards rach from UK 🇬🇧
So much beer! Wow, someone had a drinking problem. I can’t see a lady who lived to her 90s drinking that much. I wonder if it was her husbands beer or some squatters staying there after she died. That would explain all the plastic plates and cutlery if the water had been turned off.
I love when Lesley and Danny explore together ❤️
The seat with steps is a step stool to climb. Lol y'all are adorable. Love you guys.
Hello Lesley 😀 I can't wait to see this amazing place! I might have to watch it later due to working this afternoon. The house reminds where my grandpa was born. 📷🎉
Thanks for being properly respectful to this property that was a home to an American family. The ornate pieces on the bed are called "tassels" and likely originate in Europe. And the unfortunate feces found on the furniture is from raccoons. That period furniture is really their style!
Keep up the great work and we would love to see the same type of content, showing the beautiful aspects of Portugal.
Thanks for the fantastic videos.
Looking at this place somehow i had this mixed feeling,its beautiful and sad also the nostalgic feeling this house give me,im breathless(i literary Cried)so enchanting its lovely.
Hi Leslie,
Great job! Can you please give us an update on your friend who got in trouble in Las Vegas? How is he doing? I think this house was abandoned because it is too close to the busy highway. Keep up the good work! I'm glad to see you are in America exploring! 👍🐸👍
Very happy that you both are still in America.🥰 I hope that this woman didn't die in this house and left for days before they found her. Thank you for this video. Hope to see another video from the U.S.A. God Bless and Stay Safe! 😀 Cathy, Ohio 👋
In America we call the foot rests ottomans ^_^ if you're ever in New Jersey, I have a ton of places down the road from me to explore.
Thank u both for the wonderful tour. The decorations hanging from the gold bedspread are called tassels. So sad to see things left behind. Love u guys.
Danny your voice is so precious you speak with so much love care and understanding in your voice. You are a handsome and very sweet man. I enjoy your videos so deeply.
The large televisions had a wonderful stereo sound system and was also used as another piece of furniture.Grest to see you guys wonder about our furniture etc,appliances👍😀❤️
Some kids don’t realize how hard the parents worked to put a roof over their head. What ashame.
Yes! And then just leave all that to sit and rot!!
I know there are plenty of reasons why they abandoned it but it is still always sad to see such waste! Sell it or something!
And by the way,
Welcome to our Country!!!!!
Bless you both and safe travels and exploring!!
Love you!!!🥰♥️ I wish I could get to meet or talk to you before I’m gone!
You are such exemplary young men and I’m proud of you!!!
I appreciate how respectful you are to the property and memory of the former owners.
Oi Bros ! É triste ver essas casinhas abandonada, e saber que família viveram aí, boa sorte pra vcs. 🇧🇷❤️
Hi, Lesley! Albany NY is where I'm from even tho I moved to Texas so it was good to see.. even tho cold for you.. you narrated so beautifully and thx for the camera work, Danny! Once again, taking us to places unimaginable! Excellent video! Love you, guys (and Maureno thru the vent, too). Nita🤠🇨🇱❤😘
I love that you guy’s are in the US, Leslie & Danny👍 There are sooo many abandoned places to explore here in the US👍❤️
The white, string, item that was on the coffee table, was a doilie👍 People here in the US used them under plants & vases! I still have some that my grandmother had made & use them to this day👍❤️ The heater downstairs along the wall were baseboard heaters, my parents had them in their house! Hot water would run through the pipes & into the room’s, heating the rooms! It makes me sad that the family of Josephine, won’t save the antique furniture in the master bedroom…collector’s would love to have that today 👍🙏❤️The dishes & other items could have at least been donated, even if the family had no interest😢😰😞 Thank you Leslie & Danny for another wonderful adventure!!! I loved it & all of your work👍🙏💕
I watched bros of decay when it first started years ago, I was a religious viewer, I always admired how much a gentle humble soul you are and how much respect you gave the homes, its nice to see you have not changed! I loved this video and now going to binge watch probably 5 more 😂♥️ much love!
He has changed. Go back and watch the other videos in USA , he uses God’s name in vain. Several people asked him not to do it out of respect of his Christian viewers. When you ask people to subscribe to one’s channel you think he try to have some respect.
Awesome 👍🏽🌻
Teleflora is a Wire Service to enable people to send flowers to people all over the world. She probably had this service for her customers if she were a florist.
The stamp you found has one of our American Presidents on it...Eisenhower whom was also a General. As someone else pointed out, that was a round crocheted stitched doily on that table. We as Americans, love our dishes, but a lot of times paper plates and plastic are used for and by elderly, or invalids.
Those stickers that said "dearest" were usually placed on ribbons put on flowers or funeral wreaths. Those birdhouses were the type where you put water in there for fresh flowers . That doll you found is not creepy, but a yawning baby and probably worth money...
Well, we enjoyed...interesting with lots of beautiful furniture.
It makes you always sad to see the decay....... thanks for sharing this. I love it too to explore
I watch your movies all the time, they are very wonderful.
Those cloths are called doillies . Love your work. And the chair in the kitchen with the steps in them was a step ladder and a chair. People use them as both. You could sit on them with the steps tucked underneath and when you needed a step ladder you just dragged it around and used the steps to reach something high in the cabinet. Thanks and keep it up.
Thank you to you both lovely to see this place and Story
I am love the dollie in the small wood table. Really Beautiful crochet work maybe I am thinking if something I will left of my existence here it will my crochet items ( dollies, clothes , etc) and embroidery pieces too 😉
Wow another great exploration! I hate that all the beautiful furniture doesn’t get passed on. I love it all! That vanity !!
And not all of us use plastic in our homes ! Hopefully no one will moving forward.
Thanks again !
I am near Dayton Ohio if y’all ever get close we would love to help you guys out in any way!
Beautiful simple home with lot of merry around, sad to see it got abandoned, thank you for sharing
She was a FLORIST. Remember? She did floral designs of all kinds, hence the ceramic decorative pots: People could call her and order what they wanted, pay with a credit card, which could be keyed in and charged through that Teleflora box. (Teleflora is one of the florist groups in the US, like FTD network.) Send what they want anywhere, paid for, and the florist on the other end would fill the order and deliver, as in a funeral or other occasion.
Oh gosh….the beautiful piece of crochet in the table is called doilies. The color of the door and around the window looked like lavender, you make everything in the houses you explore sound so romantic! Amazing how some rooms didn’t have any decay……incredible. The things that were left….very sad how the family didn’t care about it, the history there would be so worth it to me, and the furniture! Maybe the pain of loosing them kept them from going there? It’s possible.
I love the flowers on the curtains!! The way that the colors are in the room!
Love this house and I love the respect and care you show the property
I love that you are exploring here in the US. I can really relate to these places. Old farmhouses as opposed to mansions.
That chair is for a child. My grandmother had one in red. We were young so we couldn’t get up on the seat ourselves. The steps helped us be independent and the one step children rested their feet. I’m in the USA and 68yo. I’m talking them 1950’s. These chairs are still sold and I almost purchased one for my 5yo granddaughter! It’s a clever design.
❤ I love your explores! We used to have one of those red high chair/step stools. When I was little I would use it to make my own toast when nobody was watching! 🤗 Thank you for always being so kind and gentle with these old homes. I bet the florist lady was loved by many people needing flowers. 😊
