    It seems irrelevant but one of the things I like about your videos is that you include the ambient sounds of the places that you visit- you're not overdubbing or filling the audio track with just you speaking. It's nice to not only see the field where you used to play but also to hear the insects and the birds in the area while I'm looking at it. It reall adds to the "being there" aspect of it.

      I have a passion for memories and I never want to forget, I don't want to die with my memories. I'm keeping journals, poems, diaries, and preparing to write a book about my husband's illness, and recently got into CZcams. the only problem is not a 4k hd camera yet lol. videos will continue. THANKS FOR WATCHING

    When you tell about your dad finding you hiding, I had to laugh. I did the same thing, but we had skipped school one morning and gone to play pin ball machines at the Bowling Alley. To my knowledge my dad NEVER EVER went in that Bowling alley, but right when I was smacking the ball, my friend says, "Hey is that your dad?" OMG it was him!! LOL I never knew HOW he found me ,but the remainder of that day was very bad, for me! :)

    @rnelsonbaseballfan Před 7 lety +1

    Thanks Adam for sharing your childhood home and memories. Visiting my home is always bitter sweet. My home is torn down and an apartment in its place and our sandlot is now paved over for a truck stop. Which leads me to the philosophical question 'Can a person ever really go back home?'

  • @THEtvExPerT
    @THEtvExPerT Před 7 lety

    Your closing statements at 12:12 are absolutely true. We take so much for granted these days and nothing moves faster than time. What a great idea to go back and not only film locations that were dear to you growing up, but also to retell the stories that made them special. I recently learned of the closing of 2 of my favorite childhood attractions (a miniature golf course/sports park in Indiana and a huge petting zoo in Michigan). I thought they'd be there forever. The last time I was at either place was before the "digital" age so all I can expect to find are a few 4x6 Kodak prints and maybe a scratchy VHS. Such a good reminder to try to capture/preserve locations before they're gone or no longer recognizable. Thanks for sharing your memories with us!

    Great Video Adam, its amazing how we appreciated things like VHS. My first VHS movie was GodFather played over and over... And we sat there with amazement too bad kids now a days take those things for granted. It was a great little town you grow up in. I love your T-shirt

    The 80's was such an Nostalgic Time, Great Movies, Great Music and a lot of drive-ins. The Memory of Mid Summer Drive in movie when the breeze blows through, eating Your own home made snacks and a cooler full of Dew and all friends having a blast, Oh the Innocence. Thanks Adam

    Mindblowing video. I also grew up in Nicveville back in the 80's too... So awesome you returned. As you can probably tell now Adam, Niceville has REALLY built up. The additions of Walmart, Public, the Cefco station and Ollies... It is really cool that you were here a few days. I thought about driving to Niceville yesterday to track you down and say hello.

    Every time I think you have posted my favorite vlog, another one comes along. What a great message in today's vlog. These mean so much to me because, as an American now living in Germany, I get to see familiar things, and things I have read about, or things I have never even thought about. I am confined to my apartment, I can no long get outside and explore like I once did. Now, you do it for me. Thank you, Adam. These vlogs truly touch my soul.

    Glad I found this video! I grew up in Niceville (1975-1997), was a senior the year the football team won state, sat in pretty much the same place you did, lol. I had my trip down memory lane (after a 20-year absence), a year ago. Thanks for sharing this, hope to make it back down there soon.

I also just caught your Dad's latest video. It was amazing to see some of your mannerisms in him. I often find myself doing something or standing a certain way the is a complete reflection of my father. Carry on Adam!

    @macdaddyjill Před 7 lety +1

    Thank you for this vlog, my favorite thus far. Last year I had the pleasure of checking out my 80's childhood home that my dad built in Winter Springs, FL when it went up for sale. It was so surreal to walk around after 16 years and see how things have changed and yet how much is still the same. So many memories came flooding back and as I was leaving I got a little teary eyed. If I had the money I would have bought it, but I can't afford two mortgages! Hehe. The city has grown quite a bit since I have lived there. I can remember how things used to look like it was yesterday and where my brother and I built forts, played in the street, and played Nintendo with the neighborhood kids. You truly are a kind and intriguing person and I wish you a safe journey. I can't wait for you to arrive to the Orlando area to see what you find. Maybe I will see you around! Say hi to the Tim and Jenn Tracker! Gotta go play some Nintendo now!

    I grew up in Crestview and spent much of my time in Niceville. It's funny because my dad is a pastor too. It's really cool to see everything again through your vlog. Now I live near Marion, Indiana, which of course is not too far from where James Dean grew up. It's crazy that you travel to places that mean so much to me. Really appreciate all that you do on your channel.

    I just gotta say you drop us a lot. 😜
    Honestly I love that you have really amazing stories of your past. A lot of people have pretty vague recall. You could vlog like this for an hour and it wouldn't get old, IMHO. 💖👍💖
    My childhood bestie and I just yesterday discussed how it drove us nuts being stuck in a hick town every summer with not much to do, but now as an adult I'm blown away at the things we did and how great we had it.
    And you're 100% right we only go-round one time so we should make the most of every day if possible. It's an amazing world and so many are right outside your house.
    Love that Bat Boy has a seat of honor. He's a doll. 😘 Those baby blues!!!

    Really cool hearing about your history and some of those places that I see almost every day. Fellow Niceville resident here! Went to RBCS too! Yes, I remember how the signs in the front window of the bus would have random cities on there lol! Those charter buses were nice but they broke down a lot unfortunately. And yep, the Niceville cinema closed down in the last year- was good for a cheap movie to see without having to drive to the barrier island. Also remember when that Sushi place was a Mcdonalds- it changed sometime in the early 2000s.
    Love your vlogs: makes me want to travel more and go see cool places.

    We used to rent VCRs and in 1988 finally got our first purchased VCR. When we tested the recording the first thing we taped was a scene from a rerun of Mary Tyler Moore show.
