Hi my name is Rick and I live in South Carolina. I have been here my whole life and have spent a lot of time traveling the state as well as a large portion of the eastern part of the country. While I am no expert on all things in this part of the country, I do enjoy going places and seeing what there is to see. And as time goes by I hope to expand my area of travel to include other parts of the country. My plan for this channel is to take you along for the ride and hopefully you will enjoy the experience as much as I do.
I am semi retired and starting this channel will inspire me to document places that I go and at the same time keep me busy. I will go to historic places, places of interest and out of the way areas that will hopefully peak your curiosity. I look forward to sharing my adventures and travels with you and I hope you enjoy the ride.

Merry Christmas 2024
In this short video I highlight my two favorite things about the Christmas season and those are Christmas lights and Christmas trees. Christmas means different things to each person, and I enjoy seeing all the different colors of the lights and the imagination that people use to decorate Christmas trees. And of course, snow would be nice but that is something we rarely get where I live. I found these images and videos on the web and wanted to share them with you. I hope all of you have the best Christmas possible.

I was first introduced to Thomas Wolfe my senior year in college, which was many years a...

Просмотров 5422 года назад
In 1841, John Adams designed and built a historic church in Conestee, South Carolina. The church was built at the request of Vardry McBee who wanted his employees, who worked at his mill in Conestee, to have a place to go to church. Adams designed and built an octagonal church, the church has eight sides, and in doing so created what would become a very historic and rare church. There are only ...

I'm thinking to visit Greenville this month for the holidays and stay downtown. The decorations are nice but your video shows a ghost town...is it a lively city in the day and night time?
Yes, Greenville is very active day and night. I purposely took the images late at night because I did not want to include people in the video if at all possible. There are several very nice hotels, restaurants, and bars downtown. I don't think you will regret visiting if you decide to do so.
There’s another one I worked at it’s in Powdersville
That was great, Maestro! I love the one with the angel near the end the best!!! Thank you for this delightful journey through your faves!❤❤❤
Thank you! I take great pleasure in seeing the lights and trees at Christmas.
Bravo, Maestro .. you are one of my top three favorite people to listen to. You missed your calling as a history professor. But in my eyes, your brilliance will always be second to your wit.
Thank you! I was in Asheville a couple of months ago to get video and images for this and I always love going to the Asheville area. One of my favorite places to visit. I feel so bad for all of the people that live there because of the devastation due to the hurricane. So many people lost everything, and I can't imagine going through that. So many lives affected.
Another great video. Very well researched and your narration is wonderful.
Thank you! I enjoyed doing this video. A lot of research but he was an interesting person and I enjoy his writing. I really appreciate you watching.
Very well done. Great content sorely needed on YT. Keep up the great content. Excellent work.
Thank you! I enjoyed doing the research on Thomas Wolfe. He was a remarkable writer and his ability to express his thoughts was equally remarkable.
Thanks for presenting the additional facts not on the memorial's boards.
Yes, he was remarkable person. Thank you for watching!
I'm the adventurous type and explored the trails at both bridges. The Poinsett trail was tricky from what I recalled and I vividly remember seeing a cave up there. It's been a dream of mine to visit the Campbell Bridge during the peak of the fall colors.
They are both in beautiful places and I always enjoy going to both locations. I hope you have a great day and thank you for watching!
That's my neighbourhood! The Swamp Rabbit Trail goes right through it. Also, I often will leave a keychain flower at The Welcome Statue. :)
It is a beautiful spot and a place to remember those that suffered and suffer from that terrible disease.
Thanks for the video. I can't bring myself to visit the house, as I had read a book about the African American experience at Clemson. I do visit the gardens often tho.
Thank you for watching. I agree the slavery issue is hard to digest and was so unnecessary.
Enjoyed hearing lots of words from Wikipedia articles that I wrote.🙂
I read a lot of articles and material when I did this video. I also talked to a lot of people in Greenville about the homes. Words are not exclusive to one person. All the videos that I do I put them in my words. At any rate, thank you for watching the video. I really appreciate it.
great video! i was so interested to hear the research re eliza huger's grave!
Thank you! I really appreciate your comment. The church has enough history to fill a book. It is an interesting place no doubt. Thanks again for watching.
Lovey piece of history.
Thank you for watching!
Beautiful. Love seeing the old churches.
I agree! Thank you for watching.
Another great video ❤
Thank you so much for watching!
My grandpa(moms dad) is 68... and I cant believe he is still alive😅 John Calhoun died at 68 BECAUSE OF TUBERCULOSIS😅
Does anyone have a picture of the original Zaxbys house on Laurens rd before it was torn down? Been looking everywhere.
I do not but if I come across one I will let you know.
Yankee refuge camp is what it is .
Great video and interesting facts. I have a question, does John Calhoun have any connection with the clan colquhoun?
Thank you for watching! I am not sure on your question but his father, whose name was Patrick Calhoun, was from Donegal, Ireland. I hope you have a great day!
Thank you for watching and for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video!
This is very interesting! Thank you for producing this video and the history!!
Thank you for watching. There is so much history in this area and I really enjoy looking into it.
I loved in South Carolina for 12 years and never visited Greenville. 😢
This video is quackers. 😂
Yes, and I learned a few things about ducks that I did not know when doing research for this video.
The Goodwin house looks horrible now. I am glad it is still standing but yikes! Another great video. Your research is topnotch.
There are a lot more historic homes in the Greenville area. I hope to do another video on some in the future.
I almost fell asleep watching this. So soothing with the rushing water. Another great video.
Both of those bridges are located in out of the way areas. Beautiful locations for both.
I just found your channel and i am loving it. Your narration and camera work is amazing. I just subscribed and plan on binge watching the rest of your videos.
Thank you! I am working on some new videos that I hope will be out soon. I am an older person and work alone so I don't have the opportunity to do video's as much as I would like.
@@placesandspacesintime4417 I totally understand. I watched all your videos and loved them.
Love volunteering there, it is a beautiful place and history filled.
The Hagood Mill site is a true treasure and I enjoy every I make.
I grew up here. In the 1980s we went all the way to the end. Prior to the county's beginning in 1868 , my family was here before English or Spanish arrived. Ani Waya Clan of the Lower Towns of the Tsalagi
That area of South Carolina is so beautiful and full of history. I always learn something new on each visit.
Thank you, I love visiting historic areas on You Tube So enjoyable ❤
Thank you for watching!
Rudolf Anderson was born in Spartanburg but grew up in Greenville.
Yes I did say in my long video that he was born in Spartanburg, SC and grew up in Greenville, SC. Everything I have read about him indicated that he considered Greenville his home and that is why I reffered to him as being a native of Greenville in this short video. Thank you for watching and commenting.
I do declare
Which wife? Catherine is still alive
The gravesite, as you can see in the video, says that his wife Katie Wynn passed away on April 18, 1959.
Wonderful video, thanks for doing the research. I can’t believe I lived there so many years and missed this when I lived in Mauldin. Thank you.
Thank you for your comments and thank you for watching. It really is a remarkable building.
And what’s up with the giant White House down Augusta street between chicken salad chick restaurant and that school down the road? Who owns that?
This I am not sure about. I will look into it. Thanks again for watching!
I just moved here wondered what that Wilkins house was all about. But once it’s moved it’s totally changed as you can see as it sits on the truck. So it’s not the same as it once was correct?
The way it looks now is how it looked when it was originally built. After Ms. Wilkins died, it was sold to a local funeral home, and they painted the house white. Once it was moved to its current location, it was brought back to its original look. Thank you for watching!
Loved the. Video
Thank you! I really appreciate you watching.
Loved watching
Thank you again!
I hate Congressman Timmons. Man ran unopposed and has a shitty voting record.
this is the most pathetic place and those petroglyphs look like they've been made with a nail it's a little county good old boy place built so good old boy county administrators cousins and Sons and daughters can have a job the public will never work at these places you have to be in the club...
Hi, I’ve lived in Greenville for over 35 yrs now, and enjoy your videos. Your voice is very familiar to me. Anyway, just a small point: Vardry McBee’s last name is pronounced Mack’-bee with the emphasis on the 1st syllable. Also, are you familiar with the books by Charles A David called “Greenville of Old”? Vol I was published in 1998; Vol II published in 2000…both books published by the Historic Greenville Foundation. I think you will really enjoy them. Do you happen to be an architect? Just wondering because we are part of that community in G’ville. Thanks so much for your videos!
Thank you so much for watching. I enjoy doing the videos and I always learn more than I knew going in. I am not an architect. I have not read those books but I will check them out if I can find them. Again thanks for watching and for your comment. Please recommend my channel to your friends! I hope to have a new video out very soon.
this house is 230 years old
Hello I am the fifth generation of J.H. Goodwin My name is Brylee Roddy this is my grandfather last name but if i had may nana last name i wound be Brylee haygood. My Nana was raisied in the home . They had slaves and much more.
really enjoy your video's always learn something new
I really appreciate your comments. Thank you so much for watching!
Ron didn’t “just recently buy it” he bought it long time ago and let the church use it for free.
Wyche not Weiss
I know how it is pronounced. Some of my words sound like I am using an s when I'm not. Just how I speak.
I was reading the transcript not listening
@@nancye2963 No problem. I really appreciate you watching and I hope you have a wonderful day!
I'm a native NC gal but grew up just over the border past Gaffney. When I used to come to the Greenville area in the 80s and 90s, it was horrible. I have now lived here for the past 8 years and am so proud to tell everyone about Greenville. There is so much to do here and the surrounding area. Less than an hour down the road on Hwy 11, we have 4 incredible state parks offering incredible hiking. We're halfway between Charlotte and Atlanta and an hour from Ashville. In the warmer months, Greenville and the surrounding area are abound with festivals and free outdoor concerts. Fall for Greenville in October can't be missed. And our beautiful zoo hosts 2 adults, only parties with Brew at the Zoo and Sippin Safari. I invite anyone to come explore this southern beauty.
We live in an incredible area no doubt. So much to see and do.
That was great, Maestro! 😀
You're always kind. Thank you!
I always enjoy the history video's you do of the places you visit, So interesting and really enjoy the Petroglyphs and the native american collection and medicine circle
Thank you and thanks for watching.
you have a very low level for gratification
Great to see another video from you and the night time photo's are great, Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays
Thank you and I hope you have a great Christmas!
Shame that people have such hatred toward a culture that values God. Im from a place where the politicians hate God and that mentality is the norm. I want to move to a place where God is valued in society.
That’s very close minded, you complain as if people hating God is the issue, but when you Christian’s proselytize to others and speak of the Holy Ghost you expect no derision in turn, doesn’t seem very fair, does it?
@@anagonyaowusu3119 Listen, mock all you want you still are going to have to bow to the king of kings one way or another. Either screeching begging for mercy or praising.
@@georgemichaels2230 No one is mocking you? Your so reductionary and unwilling to listen, you’ve every intention to tell others how to live but are incapable of taking a single page out of others book, so humility would do you some good, all I’m saying is that not everyone follows the same faith as you, Hindus, Buddhist, Tribal African traditions, your selfishness directs you to believe that your faith is the only one that exists.
@@anagonyaowusu3119 That's because im a born again Christian. True Christianity is the only religion that states your efforts cannot save you only Jesus can save you. Other religions teach that your work will save you. The mainstream media also hates true Christianity but it doesn't care about those other religions because those other religions are not a threat to their narrative. In true Christianity Jesus is the lead authority figure and man serve Jesus above government. Those other religions teach a comply to communism and give the government your bodily rights bur true Christianity says do not be conformed to the world but be renewed in your mind. Jesus is the only way to heaven and the mainstream is ruled by satanists so they don't care if you practice other religions because they lead you to hell which serves Satan.
@@anagonyaowusu3119I don't believe anyone is close minded here. Even in the bible it state that there qill be many places that will follow the same road but will go by many names though we all follow the same path. Jesus taught acceptance and love and told us to not judge... sadly there are a lot of people in EVERY religion that do this, this is not a "Christian" thing this is a "People" thing. Don't get understanding and knowledge from people because we are all walking blind, see how the world works for yourself and understand accordingly. If when you hear about God something inside you wants to fight it, you should ask yourself "Why am I fighting a concept meant to invoke understanding to the inevitable?" Do you want to believe that when you die it all goes black and that's it? I can tell your for sure that it's not and that we are tethered to something that goes on and on but that is for you to find within, no one pushing you will ever make you. You could even say in some light that this comment is meaningless for that very reason, but you seem like a logistical young sort and I thought I'd give it a shot. Thank you for reading. God loves us all, but he does not play around with what he loves, that is something very real.
