    Hey Adam! I meant to say this the other day but of course I forgot... 🤷‍♂️ Anyway, you have occasionally mentioned that you would like to have a classic truck, when you do a classic car alert, and when I saw the pickup that was your grandpa's and was still sitting at his property I immediately shouted out to myself "there is your classic truck!" (I was alone, no one heard me, but I still wanted to put it out into the universe! Haha). Not sure who technically "owns" it as far as who it may have gone to in his will, but if no one in your family wants it, then I think you should absolutely have it restored so that you can both have your classic truck as well as pay homage to your grandpa. I'm sure you've already thought of that or it's been mentioned but just in case I wanted to say it. Thank you for all of these videos, they are incredible and I know I'm not the only one who's lovin' em.

    This video was kind of bittersweet. I went to school at the college where the Boiling Spring is located. It’s a wonderful place. In the 1990s, the spring had a structure around it that made it appear like a gazebo from a distance. Really sad to see what has become of Earl Owensby Studios. I interviewed him in an office at the studio for a college class assignment. He was very gracious with his time. I even wrote about the experience in my book, The Homeless Man’s Journal. One of my professors, the late John Brock, was a producer on some of his movies, including Hyperspace with Chris Elliot and Paula Poundstone. Eaten at Italian Garden more times than I can count back in the day. As explained in the video, the restaurant still has the floor that slants toward the back of the establishment, where the screen used to be. While it’s neat to see the little town where I went to college, it’s heartbreaking to see Owensby’s studio in that kind of shape. Earl Owensby is a true “something from nothing” story. He was adopted as a baby and grew up poor, but followed his dreams and established that studio. Thought you might check out the Silver Bullet (1985) filming locations while around Wilmington.

    Hey Adam! Love your Americana videos! You need to see the original Coke mural on the side of Young Brothers Pharmacy in Cartersville, Georgia. Of course, they have touched it up throughout the years. They also have one of the first independent Coke bottling facilities there. The bldg is something else now, but the beautiful architecture and signage are still there. While you're there, you have to eat at the 4-way diner (a relic in itself). Plus, so much more to see/do! Safe travels brother!

    I was born in Shelby and grew up in Kings Mountain. I am very familiar with the whole Cleveland County area. There is a lot to see there. One of my best friends from high school loved those peach Nehi's. That Rogers theater has had several attempts at re-imagining but none were successful. I went there when it was a movie theater. Try the Shelby Diner. It has been around about 100 years. Boiling does not always mean hot. I can also mean rising up.

    Adam, one of the nicest little one stop light towns that you should visit is called Ellerbe, NC located about 75 miles east of Charlotte. The main road through it is business US Hwy 220. The claim to fame is that it was the last home of wrestling legend Andre the Giant who's old home is located a few miles west of the town off scenic Hwy. 73 in rolling hills and timbered forest. Ellerbe was also home to race card legend Benny Parsons. There is a springs here as well you guessed it, called Ellerbe Springs which was a draw for early travels who came to drink the water and bath in it believing that it had healing properties. Today, it is a popular destination to visit because of the two-story bed and breakfast house that has stood there for many years. I'm not sure if it still is but there was also a fine dining restaurant within the house as well. Besides all this, the little town boast some nice antique shops and a world class museum called the Rankin Museum. Dr. Pressley Rankin was a locale legend. He traveled the world gathering artifacts and had a huge collection of which part of was used to create the museum. Of special note is one of the best native American artifact collections in the state. There is also a wonderful array of taxidermy exotic animals from all over the world, fossils, minerals and local and state historical artifacts including early medical devices since he was a doctor. There is even Civil war items. Added more recently there is a special section just for Andre that one should see that has many of Andres personal items in it. Just south of town is a locally popular farmers market store with fruits, vegetables, crafts, jams, jellies, etc. with a building shaped like a huge strawberry that sells ice cream! The country side around Ellerbe, especial to the west along Hwy 73 is one of the most beautiful country drives in the state and carries you through the last remnant "hills" and hardwood forest that you will see once you leave the Piedmont region heading east towards the coast. I highly recommend this little town Adam for you to visit. There is also a couple of local dining spots there as well.

    I love that old theatre. We have the old Tower Theatre in the Tower District. I all but grew up there, as my grandparents on my mother's side, had a house on North Adoline, between the Tower District and Roeding Park. My grandfather was a mechanic for the City of Fresno, which owns that park. He'd give my parents tickets for Rotary Playland and we enjoyed that so much. One of my grandfather's friends was Dr. Paul Chaffee, the director of the zoo. He was one of my grandfather's pall bearers at his funeral.

It has a long-distinguished filming (movie & TV) history - many greats filmed there, all or parts of, especially in Wilmington area or the mountains - Dirty Dancing, The Green Mile, parts of Forrest Gump, Bull Durham, The Last of the Mohicans, Deliverance, The Color Purple, Matlock, Days of Thunder, The Fugitive, Dawsons Creek, I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Crow, one Tree Hill, Patch Adams, Junebug, The Conjuring, Halloween Kills, The Hunt for Red October…and even Muppets Space 😆 - just to name a tiny few 🎬🎥👏 And don’t get me started on some great music legends from NC…

    Thanks Adam. You sure have had to deal with rain and snow/ice, but you come through it all with outstanding results! I sure did not know that Earl Scruggs was from Shelby :) Love those old theaters and murals, and by the way, your plan on the diet is surely paying off, I really ought to do this too..."shall I"

    This is surreal. I'm a native of Boiling Springs NC. Been all around the world, came back. It's a great place to grow up.

    Cool!! I went one semester at Gardner Webb, fall of 1983. I became to homesick & came home. To Columbus GA, where you were at the beginning of your road trip.

    WOW! Shelby is the next town of any size down the road from Forest City, which is where my momma was born and raised! Additional notes:
    I had two cousins that attended Gardner Webb College in Boiling Springs
    One of my best friends from high school lived in Mooresboro, which I believe to be just over the county line in Rutherford County (we pronounced it 'more's-burro", as in 'more's the pity"
    I heard that in addition to Earl Scruggs, Leon Rippy (search "The Patriot" and "Saving Grace" was from Shelby. If he wasn't, he sure sounds like it. 😆

    Hey Adam! Huge fan of your vlogs! If you're ever in Hickory, NC and need a guide around I'm totally down to help! I've lived in the area for about 3 years and Doordash every night so I've seen some interesting places around here. Also I live less than 10 minutes away from the Henry River Mill Village where the District 12 scenes in The Hunger Games was filmed! It's a cool/creepy place, but you gotta call the owner ahead if time to explore it. Let me know if you'd like to take me up on that!

      If you're paying huge mark-ups for a hamburger, you never have a right to complain about not having any money. Especially in your senior years. Learn to cook, and probably how to shop. Ain't you learned nothing'?
