Thanks for following along
Another daily highlight of my day, Thanks Adam! I really think you made the right decision to get back on the road again, you've got that same spunk you had before moving to CA. BTW interesting factoid about Sam Kinnison, I never knew he was a preacher...I'm guessing Andrew Dice Clay must have been an alter boy...
Having a blast, Adam. Every episode is a brand new adventure. Thanks for letting us be a part of it.
Thanks for stopping by Picher!! Great stuff
As always Thank you Adam! You can't understand how much your daily videos help start my day! Thank you so much!
Always my daily adventure is u!!
The videos since you left Cali have been absolute powerhouses. Great adventures, awesome stuff.
These Vlogs should win an award.
Truly interesting & fact-filled!
I am really enjoying the ride.
when you walked into that field I knew exactly where u went!! and the house!!
6th grade summer school, that was the first book I ever read on my own.
it is now my kids favorite book and movie!
stay golden Adam The Woo!
Adam...honestly I think that THIS is what you were born to do. I get to travel with you and learn the history of small town America without having to leave my living room. These kind of videos are my very favorite, and you get better and better each and every day. The addition of the little drone was genius. From one former Williams to another (and my oldest son is named Adam) have a great and wonderful day. Looking forward to tomorrow!!
I love watching Adamthewoo, he is not only entertaining, but is not pretentious, and he is down to Earth.. Keep being yourself Adam, this globe is blessed to have ya.. :)
Wow! More "GOOD STUFF" today. This last week has been just fantastic. And the Mantle home was great. You hit a grand slam with this one. Thanks for the look in .
Hi Adam! Here a message from Holland. We love your zany journeys, and we watch The Daily woo everyday!! Love your Arny impressions!!! Love and greetings from The Netherlands!!
I'm really loving these road trip vlogs!
So good and full of content
The REASON Picher, OK is abandoned is because the mining that was taking place there directly underneath the town has rendered most of it's buildings un-stable and ready to collapse. Also, there are huge piles of toxic waste material all over the place which are dangerous to even be around. The government even had to forcibly remove a few people who didn't want to leave. It's a fascinating story -----> www.wired.com/2010/08/ff_madmaxtown/
I am surprised that Adam didn't do more of a back story on Picher.
+David Waits I was surprised about that too.
Pichers problem was toxic lead levels from the mining and the material left behind. It is a federal super fund site to clean it up
Neat Netflix documentary about Picher. You must watch.
The more I watch, the more I enjoy each VLOG. Thanks for taking us in your journey!
Its great to see the "insider" of the house. Thank you Adam!
I have enjoyed your videos over the last 10 or so months. I have lived in Oklahoma my whole life. Thank you for the time and energy you spent making these videos.
Yes; he's clearly doing his best to be respectful of others. I have noticed that he's obviously asking if he can record people; sometimes they say yes, sometimes they say audio only, sometimes neither - for example he clearly had several minutes of friendly conversation with the cops near Mantle's place, but did not publish any of it. That's the way it should be done!
This is becoming my favorite morning show.
You are living my dream Adam. Love seeing you on the road again. Excellent stuff.
thank you
Amidst all the turmoil going on in the world, its great to just see these feel good times of old memories. Thanks Adam.
This is great content. There's a very genuine quality to it that you don't find on CZcams anymore. That you're open to the wonders of the smallest things opens up a much bigger world. Thanks for sharing it with us. I haven't dug back deep enough into your vlogs to see if you've been to 4 corners (AZ, NM, CO & UT) but if not you should the next time you head back west. Of course it's so famous it's almost cliche' but still fun to see.
Did you know that the four corners monument isn't on the actual four corners? The site is actually on an Indian reservation several hundred yards away. The big concrete stand and photo op center was put where it is for easy tourist access...so anyone who stands on that nice monument isn't actually in four states; I guess the builders figured no one would realize? So as a fan of geography, I give the Four Corners monument a big thumbs down!
If you look at Google Maps or Earth, you can see the Four Corners Monument actually does fall on all four borders.
+MENT ACLE Considering what a pain it is to get there from any of those 4 states as it's literally in the middle of nowhere on the Navajo reservation I think most would allow for a margin of error smaller than what you get from looking up an address on zillow.
Love waking up in the morning and watching your videos with my coffee.
Every time I watch your videos I wanna quit my job
Same here :)
^^^
Same... Everyday. I swear I'm gonna quit tomorrow!
if u started now vloggin in a few years u probably could. u gotta start somewhere
Hey I did. Go for it.
When you hit OK my wife asked if the Howard Johnson's that went over the interstate was still there. I told her I didn't know for sure. Now I do. Awesome vlogs! Good luck, keep up the great work and above all be safe...
Man, you have really picked the right path, in more ways than one. Absolutely loving this journey, and it has only just begun! I feel like I am travelling with you, and thank you so much for doing this! I can really see your passion being fulfilled! Thanks for taking a 59 year old on the trip of a lifetime!
Man!! These edited travel vlogs are gold!!! Can't wait to see tomorrow's!!
thanks dude
I agree
I totally agree with you also, #JayTheLoner (:
We're really enjoying watching your travels across route 66. I've said it a million times already, but I will go ahead and say it again "thanks for sharing!"☺
This was awesome! I've been to that service stop outside of Tulsa--my parents, my grandma and I stopped there once on the way back from visiting my great-grandma in Columbus, KS. It was the early 90s, and back then it was just a McDonald's and a gift shop. I bought a necklace while we were there, and after we got home I had fun telling people I got it at McDonald's. The place looks great since they restored it--a lot more open. Thanks, Adam for taking us with you on your journey. Looking forward to tomorrow... :-)
Truly enjoying the videos, Adam. Each day, I look forward to finding out what you've explored & shared with us. Thanks!
'Stay Golden Ponyboy' (Adam)...loving the last two days! Very cool interesting visits --- my hometown was small growing up but now a thriving metropolis.... Not too much remains the same...wish I could go back & see the old buildings again....very awesome to see
Another wonderful blog, get as much information about your past and the history of America.
Evel Knievel is a person you never forget, thank you for sharing.
Adam the Woo living out everyone's dream of traveling the US seeing all the great history! Love this series.
I'm glad you stopped by The Outsiders house again. That's one place I'd really like to see. My favorite book of all time and one of my favorite movies. I'm glad it's being preserved!
Really great vlogs Adam! I reallyfound Miami Ok a very warm and friendly town as a retail outlet I worked for had a store there that went out of business in 1998! I never lived in Oklahoma but love the state & very friendly people that live there! Take care Adam and hope you are truly are at peace & happy at being on the road again! Thank you for sharing all these memories with us!
Once again, Adam, you do not disappoint. I've come to look forward to your daily vlogs. You appreciate things most people overlook. You are positive without being cloying. Drone footage is fantastic.
I love the ending with you on three different states. So funny.
Just get better and better Adam...................... man your killing this road trip................. I feel like I have almost sat next to you in the van as you eat up the miles................. the mix of your own family memories and those of famous, and infamous people from the places you have lived, or visited over the past 30 years or so.
Your looking so happy, even the corny one liners are making a comeback............
i so want to watch that film now, can't get my head around how so many huge film actors were in that house in one time............. for you to actually stand there must of been a real buzz.
Copy righted route 66 cookies................. thats awesome too, and they looked scrummy.
As for walking in that civic hall and seeing the plinth that your Grand Father stood at was out of this world, and for you must of been awesome.
The story of the wayward preacher had some irony to it......... thanks for sharing that, I hadn't heard of him, being from the UK and all.
Well, looking forward to more tomorrow, happy travels Adam.
thanks for the kind words, glad you are enjoying the videos
This was a most exciting post. So much cool stuff all packed in one.
Ah well another vlog over,only another 24 hrs till my next Woo fix.Loving this road trip big guy.=)
Great episode! The Outsiders' house and especially the very yard where MM learned how to switch hit - holy crap, I can't believe that shed is still standing! Thanks for going out of the way to visit those spots and for sharing them with us. Really special!
it was amazing to be there
Just discovered you and your vids Adam. Brilliant viewing. Thanks from Northumberland, England.
I once watched a documentary on abandoned towns, and Picher was featured. Fascinating stuff.
Adam a plethora of exciting
minutes festooning this work of heart.Thanks for the lift.
I LOVE your videos. I am from the UK and it is great to see a slice of America! Thank you!!
Adam. Wow. I lived in Tulsa for 6 years. My sone was born there. We actually lived in Bixby. Then Tulsa. I am in the hotel business. So I travelled all the backroads. I have been watching your videos for some time but recently started going through your older videos. Thank you. Thank you. Memories. I remember when that McDonald’s had the golden arch.
That's so cool that they're turning the "Outsiders" house into a museum. Neat motorcycle museum, too! And that was so nice of the policeman to give you a escort to Mickey Mantle's house. And for sure, there is history all around us. What a great road trip! And even a Route 66 cookie! Happy travels, Adam! Stay safe. :-)
You got a another really great video blog. I went to one of Sam Kinison's shows during college in 1987.
Wow Adam... Your on the road vlogs are so good. Thank You!
I love the drone shots. Yesterday over the lake & today with the 3 states. That was a great purchase. Happy Travels Adam.
Great video, I used to live in Joplin MO and it was awesome seeing that area again. Thanks!
Good to see the Majestic get some miles on it. Great investment to cap off what was already a successful vlog.
This is legendary! The Mick!! One of my favorite baseball players ever!
We stopped by here this week and was honored to leave out name next to yours you made this year after your 2016 mark became faded. Love your videos and keep them coming. you're family to many of us. I wanted to leave a picture of it in the comments here, but I'm either not able to or I'm just not that use to the CZcams program. Thanx.
Adam the Woo gets a police escort to Mickey Mantles house. LOL Epic!
I suspect there's not a lot for cops to do in that town, so Adam was probably a welcome bit of distraction on an otherwise sleepy, boring summer day. :-)
The Donut shop is being remodeled ...
When he said <
"The Local Police are going to show me another building!!!"
I thought RUT-RO................... Jail??? LOL
Either that or it was a quick way to get him out of the police parking lot lol
Another excellent vlog. We are all learning something as you go on your adventures. Looking forward to the next episode!
america is totally full of historical gems...thanks for diggin em up. i never go anywhere so i am lovin this stuff! MICKEY freakin MANTLE!!! amazing
Adam your excitement is infectious, who could not enjoy your video?
Awesome vlog man! loved the peek into the Outsiders house and the dront shots of the tri state area. would have thought Sam Kinisons grave stone would have been a little more than that, didnt look like anyones been there besides you in a long time. glad to see you,visiting historical places and people who are gone from our world, its putting good energy back in the world, Thanks Adam!
We are Learning a lot following this awesome journey, thanks again Adam!
Love you on the road again. We get to see a lot of things we may never have gotten to see. Thank you
An Evel Knievel room! Life goals. The license plate on Sam Kinison's Corvette read "EX REV." Gone too soon. Really loving this road trip Adam!
I graduated from Picher Ok. Class of 2000. I can't believe you came right through my area. And I missed it. 😟.
There was also a town called Treece Ks right passed that abandoned gas station. It is also gone, I grew up there. There was a stone plaque dedicated to Treece and the people who lived there.
Adam, your videos are a high light of my day!
WoW Adam! So entertaining and informative!
You are definitely on a roll
Wow Adam From Bonnie & Clyde To The Outsiders Filming House You Have Made My Day :) A Route 66 Americana Road Trip Is On My Bucket List !!
I am actually loving this new blog i found . I love history and site seeing.
Thank u for doing this. I have always wanted to travel across state ( from California ) but not been able too. I look forward every day for the next adventure.
Your video about growing up in Eufala really brought back memories. We stopped there for supplies on our way to Lake Tenkiller. Lake Eufala has more shoreline than any Great Lake. Just a little trivia for you.
Really enjoying the traveling vlogs you've posted since leaving the West Coast. Thanks!
This was on of the best videos you have ever made. Since, you talked about The Outsiders' house; I've decide to donate to the GoFundMe page in restoring the house! Thank you, Adam!
That was lovely of you! 😃 Very nice! Man, I was 15 when that movie came out, and my little friends and I were crazy koo koo for the boys in that movie. Haven't thought about that in years!
Stay Gold!!
Enjoying your trip Adam! Looking like you are back in the saddle of traveling and filming, etc. Keep up the good work.
Glad you got to see this! I've been trying to get ahold of you forever on this since your Dad said you used to live here as a young pup and knowing you have a baseball tag on your van. There are some abandoned buildings in Commerce and right beside the Mantle statue is the toxic water that comes from the Picher mines. It flows beneath the school which is amazing since the school is still used. That whole area is made up of several towns and there are still some buildings you can go in. The school for Picher is still there and the tribal police might have let you go in there if you had spoken to them. There are a few people still living in the area. The amazing thing about this place is how toxic it is and yet many of the things in the area are still consumed by people. Water, corn, honey and cattle are just some of those things. Great to see you here finally!
Thanks Adam I'm really enjoying these edited traveling vlogs at work and keeping coming
These videos absolutely make my day, I can see the joy your having and I am really happy for you.
The most random, yet interesting stuff I've ever seen on a CZcams channel. I Loved Evel K. I use to have the action figure and motorized bike. I'm a huge fan of the "then and now" phenomenon of landscapes and urban centres. I got hooked on your videos when I saw your visit to the Alamo shooting location, and your natural passion for exploring really shines through. I wish I was retired so I could do this sort of thing. Enjoy the rest of your road trip.
Adam love the historic sites and info you provide for all of us that cant get to these sites and the comedy you throw in is awesome!!! Appreciate your time and effort!! Keep rockin!!!
Great one Adam! This video was full of goodness! I seen a documentary on Picher Oklahoma a while ago,If I remember right , The ground water is contaminated. I have stood in 3 states at the same time before, on Chain Rock in Pine Mountain , Ky. You can stand in Ky, Tennessee, and West Virginia. That is awesome that the outsiders house is being saved.
I didn't know Sam Kinison was a preacher before!. Lol, I was actually an extra in the Evel Knievel movie (the part filmed in Butte, MT) when I was a kid. Awesome visiting the Micky Mantle property, WOW! Loved your drone footage at the end with you standing in the 3 states.
Awesome video as always! It is true, the amazing historical things you can find almost anywhere. My comments:
1) I miss Sam. I had actually purchased tickets to the show in San Jose he was driving to when he was killed.
2) I was amused that the old-school 4-way stoplight had modern LED bulbs
3) I'll take the rare California earthquake over yearly tornadoes anytime. :-)
Keep up the great work; we're all riding along with you!!
I haven't seen this video in a while. It's amazing how much you cover in this one video. Outsiders to Mickey Mantels house where he learned to switch hit! I woke up bummed out over the Dodgers loosing game 1 yesterday. This video is classic!!! Thank you
Thank you for showing us Picher. I wondered what that place looked like these days.
I was hoping you would do a stop at Picher, perhaps in the future a full blown Adam the Woo video can be done on Picher, Cardin, OK and Treece, KS! There have been some strong thunderstorms in Missouri this morning, stay safe Adam.
This was such a great vlog! Thank you so much for sharing and putting so much time and effort into this for us! :)
These road trip vlogs have been amazing! Keep it up! Great work!
This Vlog today is probably one of my favorite one! So many amazing info. packed in one!! Good one Adam!!
I have only one complaint Adam.. Your videos are not long enough!! I need more!!! Keep up the good work! Love the haircut!
Just read about Picher. Crazy history and the town was deemed unsafe by the US environmental agency due to poisoning caused by mining. Very interesting.
How cool to get to be in 3 places at once! Thanks for sharing. Be safe.
Thanks for another great video Adam. Im a huge Yankees fan and seeing Mantle's home was awesome. I'd love to make it out there myself some time.
Safe travels.
Well done! Really enjoyed watching this daily vlog. It was chock full of memories, interesting sites and places.
Loving this new adventure, I look forward to the new video every day. Keep it up!
adam...i really like the way you show the historical aspects to these towns. this is better than the history channel.
Not sure if its the weight loss or the move out of O.C, but you seem soooooo much happier nowadays! Love traveling with you to these small towns, we lived in San Antonio TX for a few years and that was my favorite thing to do, drive to the small towns and check out the history. Keep it up, buddy!
thank you for showing how beautiful our country is!
That was very nice of the police officer to show you Mickey Mantle's house. I 'm enjoying your traveling vlogs. Thank you for sharing these vlogs.
On man!!!! The Evel Knievel museum is AWESOME. That's all I would talk about when I always little!!!!👍🏼✌🏼️👍🏼✌🏼👍🏼 I even had the giant floor puzzle and pull back toy. If you know what they are, you know how kool 😋 they are.
Thanks for all the history, Adam!
I look forward to these videos every day! Keep them going my friend!!
You are my very favorite Documentary and entertainment on CZcams Adam, and thanks for showing the grave of Sam Kinison, he was one of my favorite comedians when I was a 20 something, but it was a sad day when I heard about his death.
I was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It used to be a great city back in the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's. I left Tulsa and Oklahoma in 2003.
You're taking all of us with you in the van! Glad you bought one of those route 66 cookies!
killing it Adam.. the last week of videos are bloody fantastic!!
You are such a CRAZY GUY love the fact you stood in 3 states at the same time. Love the vlog. Amazing town
Another great video! Magnificent shots with him majestic!
You inspired me to get my but off the couch during my small vacation from corporate life and explore some small towns in my area here in N. Fla. Great Work by the way !!
