I love this channel. It's like a mini PBS channel full of Southern history.
This is so true, but we have the best host.........
I got this older video from youtube when I was watching something else today. It's wonderful. She's so awesome. I love the saved history and her desire to keep the 'lightbulb' burning.
Enjoy all your video’s, this was one of my favorites, looking forward to the future video s
What a Great Historical place! what a wonderful Ladie!!
What a wonderful lady and a great old building. I sure hope it does not ever get tore down. I hope the Town state or whoever does not let them. The foundation looks like it needs help soon. So much of the past is stored in that building. Would love to visit that area someday. Thank you for the video so wonderful to see.
Enjoyed the tour of Julie's shop. What a very unique and interesting place. The original woodworking tools still there. Very collectable and rare. Thank you John for the video. You all be safe and God bless.
Thank you John for another historical video!
Beautiful Blessing Darling. ⚘🎚⭐

Great job John I've been right through this area many times was always on too tight of a schedule . I remember this building the Amish I was with told me some of it's history but this is awesome coverage of this town. I ask the Amish how the town got it's name but they were not sure. Now I know. Thank you.
Thank you John. We are from Maryland about 30 minutes away from Intercourse and have been going there for as long as I can remember. We been by this building a thousand times and have never been inside. Thanks to you the next time we are up that way we will most definitely go in and have a look.
You are welcome and yes you will have to go inside and have a look and meet Fannie, she isn’t featured in this video. Thanks for watching
Nice enjoyed the interview and tour

That Zooks store and history was amazing. Love Lancaster county PA
I enjoyed your video' she was a sweet lady.
WHAT A AWESOME CHANNEL WE ENJOY WATCHING THE VIDEOS EACH DAY
Thank you and thanks for watching
The flat belt pulley system was called a line shaft . Each machine had a clutch mechanism and the line shaft ran all day.
Great video! Thanks for doing that, very nice lady!
Been to this place very interesting
Hey John. Power way back would've been a waterwheel. Then steam engine. Then electric turbine, as technology advanced. Animal & wind power were options too. Ill bet the way the floor was patched from the basement, it was water driven origunally. She said the basement still gets wet. & yes, Amish still use oil lights.........Bath, Oh.
Intercourse certainly is an unusual name. Thank you for the history of this building.
My Foster Dad came from Belleville, PA. She wondered about how the Amish getting the farmland. I'll research that.
Been there years ago love Landcaster pa.
God bless you all True America 🇺🇸 🙏 be safe
thanks for watching my videos and leaving the comment .
Wow! They most certainly don't make light bulbs that will last like that. That's really cool 😎 👍
Great video. A very nice lady with a very nice shop.
We agree!
This is so true that the building would shake when all the belt was turning. My great-grandfather had a cabinet shop with the same design as the belts, and a couple of times with my grandfather would cut them on so we, the grandchildren, could see. They are still in business to this day, making custom cabinet and selling pre-fab cabinet. I have read the first fire department was organized in the furniture store in 1911 for this town.......Great Video John.....
Definitely my favorite channel
Awesome history lesson. I would hope that building will be saved from 'progress'. Maybe could be registered as historic and saved.
Been there, it's cool. I love Lancaster County, wife and I visit from Bucks County, near Philly, quiet often. We usually stay at an old Mennonite bed and breakfast on Old Philadelphia Pike near by.
She's a great historian and has a wonderful personality. I wish that I could visit her store.
Thanks!
thank you so much for the support my friend
Once again, excellent video!
What a beautiful, intelligent lady. she does not like big rigs . But that’s ok . Love these videos
OLD IS GOLD💪 💂
Good job Julie!
that was awesome i just learned a tid bit of my home state
Fun stuff. Never see this kind of stuff in California
Very cool 😎
That’s very interesting, they could have used Horse Wheel which the Horse is hooked to a harness then walks in a circle driving a Belt System in turn powering the Saws. That was a very common Grist Mill operation where there was not enough Water.
Wonderful video
Sorry can't stop watching. Oklahoma City
thank for all the comment on my videos my friend.
John, I get corrected all the time, they said, if I'm gonna live there, say it right, lol
All the old buildings generally have tall ceilings and Tall doors and they have basements
She even admitted there is a fireplace arch in the basement of her house that tells you right there that house was completely at a lower level at one time
It may be progress, but it would be a shame to lose the charm of this area. So much history!
Was always told they changed it from the name cross roads to intercourse to to there being few towns near by with the name crossroads.
Lows makes a exterior stain called Cabot u can add any color of your choice to it and it will last u almost 30 years or more protect for dry rout and termites and peeling .
Good video, John!
Thank you
nice video john
so much concrete, so little grass.
the building looked nice. it would have been awesome to see the wagon works.
that old light bulb was amazing.
overpopulation is not progress, but what are you going to do?
Great
A little bit north of home there brother
Nice
My boys always giggle when we see a sign saying Intecourse anywhere US
i am thinking that that shop , was using a steam engine. which we in England Uk still have and steam engine fairs too.
Intercourse is a reference to a point inbetween a minimum of 2 other points. Commerce was a factor. A meeting place
Thank you!!

The s backwards I believe in the picture frame is somebody who has dyslexia. I know this because I am dyslexic but I think that's probably why it's backwards
