Nice video. I actually spent my childhood their and then lived there from 2008 until 2011. I did carpentry work there until I got tired of spending 45 minutes to an hour to get across town, even with the known shortcuts. Tourists learned about Smithwheel Road that cuts from 295 to the fire station.. But I got to send this video to a friend in Greece. Thank you
Hey Thumper. Glad you enjoyed my video. I had only been to OOB a few times over the years. My sister and her family sold their trailer and bought a lake house in NH instead so unfortunately I probably won’t be back to OOB anytime soon so I’m glad I have this memory. It’s a cool place, but yeah, that traffic sucks!!! I was a Hampton Beach NH guy myself growing up. That and Lake Winnipesaukee in NH. Thanks again for watching. Happy Holidays.
The pirate ship ride is the most popular ride in old Orchard Beach. It has been there since I was just a little boy. I remember that thing when I was seven that is my first memory of it at least. I grew up in Saco the adjoining town I had many great times in old Orchard Beach. When I grew up from a little boy I started going there as a teenager again. I would go there every night after work.
Hey Terry. Yeah I thought my disinter and I were gonna hit some bars when her daughters and friends were in the rides. I was mistaken. We brought a few in her purse. If my brother in law were there we woulda hit the bars for some live music. Next time.. thanks for watching..
You guys will like the OOB.. It has that old school seaside boardwalk feel. Tons of places to eat. Live music everywhere. Rides and games. And that pier is really cool. Thanks for watching.
Yeah Mike. I should go up there more often. My sister’s trailer is up there year round. OOB is a cool area. Next time I’ll have to explore a little more. As always, thanks for watching.
I can’t believe I never visited OOB when I lived in Boston, given that Maine was the place we went to in Summer to escape the heat. We always went further up to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park…or Camden where the Shakespeare Festival was. But, OOB is more my style with all those classic Fair rides. Especially the Matterhorn. Rode that forever as a kid at the County Fair. They used to blast Slow Ride by Foghat when we were on it. Will never forget it. Thanks D for sharing as always. I’m ready to hang out and drink plenty of beers there with ya!
Yeah Bill. That Matterhorn ride is totally old school.. I have fond memories of Gun n Roses “Rocket Queen” blaring from the speakers. OOB is such a great place. I gotta head back document more of what’s happening around downtown. I was only in Maine for less than 24hrs.. Thanks for watching bud..
Thanks for watching, Duke... Yup, you are the 5th person in the comments to remind me about Salem. Those videos are coming in October. Don’t worry.. I just get tired of being there all the time🎃
Love watching your videos and glad you got to spend time with your family, you're honestly one of the most genuine and entertaining youtubers I follow, and being from western mass I love that you're from New england
Hey! Thanks Flacko. I appreciate your kind words. You are awesome. Non of it’s a show. What you see is what you get. I’m glad you enjoy my videos, are a fan of the channel and a fellow resident of Massachusetts!
I appreciate you watching. Thanks for watching. Im glad there are more places in the world other than Salem. Lol. I know everyone who watches this channel is here for the Salem stuff though. See you in October, but unfortunately definitely less often than past years. It has been getting kinda old for me. That’s why I’ve been staying away the past few months. I’ll eventually get back there🎃
Oh yeah just what i needed after getting home from work. Looks like a great time with the fam and as always the beer is cold. Great video as always with great vibes my guy. Can't wait to see you plan a trip back there. Many blessings to you my guy.
Looks like fun times with the fam in Maine. Haven't been to OOB in years but it has the great ambiance of what summer is all about. As always, an excellent video and thanks for sharing!
It’s about time. I’ve been waiting for a d tour. I miss them. You make me laugh. You need to head to Put In Bay in Ohio. Come visit us out here !! Xoxox
Thanks for watching Backroad Exploits. I actually have no clue when Old Orchard starts to close down for the season. Sorry.. I think most New England beach towns start getting quiet after Labor Day..
Nous y étions à ces dates ma fille ma petite fille et moi… super de belle fin de semaine trois jours de température très chaude mais c était super! Vive les vacances à Old Orchard…
Hey man. So I literally didn’t do much around OOB. I was with family so we didn’t explore at all. Just the Pier area and the rides. I was only in that area for like 24hrs.. I wanna go back and do a proper video. This was just a quick little vid. Thanks for watching though. And have fun at OOB!
Hello Derek , good to hear from you . I could almost smell the different foods there on the boardwalk ! Yum 😋 Brother it's almost that time of year again , Just less than 3 months till , "HALLOWEEN " Yea ! Can't wait plus hopefully cooler temperatures as well . Be safe my friend an brother will catch you later Dude !! GOD BLESS YOU
Thanks for watching Steve. Yup, everyone wants that Salem Halloween content. Unfortunately I’m scaling it back this year. Maybe 2 videos in October. I’ve just been there/done that and I’ve gotten bored of Salem. I know everyone is here for that stuff though..
Heh Derek my name is Adam and I've dreamed of living in salem for a long time now and I was hoping to know if you think salem is a good place to live or just visit?
I hope so dude. We communicate on this platform quite a bit. And we seem to hit the same locations. I actually thought of you while filming this video. I did less talking and let the video clips tell the story.. Thanks as always for watching.
Uh oh Unc, the girls have already reached the you're embarrassing me age! That definitely was worth the view! ...guess now we wait... patiently, or are you waiting for Tron to open for a side by side HaHa!!
The Woo already posted his lol, and I expect your enthusiasm to be at least double, especially now that you announced the Springsteen request spoiler! Lol 😉
I’m bummed that my Sister and her husband sold the 5th wheel trailer up at OOB. Now I probably won’t be making it up there again this Summer. But I hope you have a good time Jim!

Old Orchard Beach looks awesome! Maine is such a beautiful place, When you get a chance you should do a D Tour of Bangor! God Bless, Derek.
Hey Zachary. Thanks for watching. Yeah I’ve been told that I need to check out Bangor Maine. Maybe next Summer.
Fun video Derek! Maine looks so nice 😊
Excellent. Maine is one of my favorite states. Glad you brought us along for the trip...
Thanks Greg. Next time I’ll get a little bit more on video. I have never even really explored this area before.. Thanks for watching..
Aww this seemed like a relaxing little trip, therefore it was a relaxing little DTour… Family time is always awesome, glad you had fun!
Coors on ice, nice. Merry Christmas in July. The pier looks amazing. It would have been awesome to see the bars and restaurants. Maine looks lovely.
Hey Terry. Yeah I thought my disinter and I were gonna hit some bars when her daughters and friends were in the rides. I was mistaken. We brought a few in her purse. If my brother in law were there we woulda hit the bars for some live music. Next time.. thanks for watching..
That looked absolutely fantabulous, what a wonderful fun time around every corner. Thanks for sharing. Blessings and much love. Safe travels
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for watching. Happy Summer Rhonda..
Nice vlog, looked like a fun time! We are planning a road trip to New England summer 2023 and OOB is on our list! Great work!!

Thanks Joe. I appreciate your comment man. Thank you. Glad you enjoy the content.
@@DTours goes without saying I am looking so forward to your Salem stuff
We used to go there every summer for years, same campground too. Good times, drank a lot of fosters larger.
Love to see it! Maine's beautiful been a couple of times. Glad to see you enjoyed seeing the family despite the heat!
Yeah Mike. I should go up there more often. My sister’s trailer is up there year round. OOB is a cool area. Next time I’ll have to explore a little more. As always, thanks for watching.
Awesome spot for summering! I love OOB.
I agree. OOB and Hampton Beach NH have those great Summertime boardwalk feels..
Awesome Carny-ography captured on this D Tours, Derek Sir! Bravitzimo!
Thanks Joe👍

Looks like fun times with the fam in Maine. Haven't been to OOB in years but it has the great ambiance of what summer is all about. As always, an excellent video and thanks for sharing!
This was only my 2nd time visiting OOB. It’s a great area. Next time I need to stay more than one night. Thanks for watching.
It’s about time. I’ve been waiting for a d tour. I miss them. You make me laugh. You need to head to Put In Bay in Ohio. Come visit us out here !! Xoxox
Thanks for watching my friend. Maybe I’ll hit up Ohio again sometime. Was there a few years ago for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
All the rides look like fun. The food looks so good i think i will stop by for a bite.
It’s a fun place.Thanms for watching.
Clean boardwalk! I don't see that in Asbury Park NJ/Coney Island. But every beach certainly has its character
One of these days I’m gonna make it down to Asbury Park and Coney Island. Two bucket list places for me to check out.. Thanks for watching ND..
@@DTours yay! If you do I'll buy you a *Coors* light😃
Looks soo much fun
Looks like a neat place. Love seeing it. May hit it up soon. Do you know when they shutup for the season?
Thanks for watching Backroad Exploits. I actually have no clue when Old Orchard starts to close down for the season. Sorry.. I think most New England beach towns start getting quiet after Labor Day..
@@DTours I think you're right, I was hoping there might be an exception you knew about.
Those rides bring back great childhood memories! There’s no way I could ride them now. What a mess that would be🤣
Yeah. I didn’t get on any of these rides either. I would have, I was too lazy to buy tickets. My sister and I had a couple of beers.
@@DTours That sounds better!
Nous y étions à ces dates ma fille ma petite fille et moi… super de belle fin de semaine trois jours de température très chaude mais c était super! Vive les vacances à Old Orchard…
Merci d’avoir regarde ma video!
Yey ! I love OOB. We're heading there on Saturday. 🙌 Hey is there a new mini golf place ?
Hey man. So I literally didn’t do much around OOB. I was with family so we didn’t explore at all. Just the Pier area and the rides. I was only in that area for like 24hrs.. I wanna go back and do a proper video. This was just a quick little vid. Thanks for watching though. And have fun at OOB!
@@DTours Awww. I'm glad you had fun and got to spend time with family. Thank you 😊
Always wanted to get up there, looks like a nice place..
It’s pretty cool. It’s your basic beach town. I dig it. You should definitely go visit OOB sometime. Thanks for watching!
Hello Derek , good to hear from you . I could almost smell the different foods there on the boardwalk ! Yum 😋
Brother it's almost that time of year again ,
Just less than 3 months till ,
"HALLOWEEN " Yea ! Can't wait plus hopefully cooler temperatures as well .

I don’t know. I’ve never lived in Salem. I’d probably only visit.
I was in Old Orchard beach last weekend. One day our paths will cross.
I hope so dude. We communicate on this platform quite a bit. And we seem to hit the same locations. I actually thought of you while filming this video. I did less talking and let the video clips tell the story.. Thanks as always for watching.
I am from Maine. I’m 60 now. OOB is the best
Thanks for watching my new fan from Maine. I love your great state, or what I’ve seen of it.
New sub my friend
Thank you my friend. I’m glad you are enjoying my channel content. Thank you for watching and commenting.

Lol. I swear those Disney videos are coming soon. I just need to film an outro. Part 1 is ready to go other than that..
The Woo already posted his lol, and I expect your enthusiasm to be at least double, especially now that you announced the Springsteen request spoiler! Lol 😉
@@MsTenaciousDae Oh that’s right! That part pretty much kicks off the first segment of Part 1..
OOB!! RULES!! Be there 7/24 after SOX GAME!
I’m bummed that my Sister and her husband sold the 5th wheel trailer up at OOB. Now I probably won’t be making it up there again this Summer. But I hope you have a good time Jim!
Finally getting our heatwave in the Seattle area; 92° at the moment, ugh.
We had like 7 straight days of 90+ degree temps. It was tough. Thanks for watching Brandon. Stay cool..
Ready for spooky season ?
Nah.. I want Summer to stick around for a while. I can do without Salem for a few more months. Lol. I know you guys are ready🎃
@@DTours lol i hear u!!
@@acts562 pretty soon my man. Pretty soon. Don’t worry🎃
