    This same thing actually happened to my family and I when I was a child. Some 45 years ago we set out on our yearly fun day only to find Carowinds completely shuttered. All dressed in summer shorts and flip flops my father set off to find us another fun adventure for the day. We ended up at the Wizard of Oz which of course was up in the mountains and was very cold. It was such a neat place and I'm so grateful because of that closure I was able to visit it. Yes I will never forget I thought I would freeze to an ice cube. haha

    Despite the superficial resemblance, mastodons were distinct from mammoths. Mastodon were shorter and stockier than mammoths with shorter, straighter tusks. Mastodons were wood browsers and their molars have pointed cones specially adapted for eating woody browse.

    So glad they closed the park today! That weather was horrible! You are a real trooper to endure the horrific weather for us! Thank you Jacob!

    Some pretty sweet taxidermy dioramas in that museum. That's an art form that the artist typically doesn't get enough credit for.
    My city, Westfield Mass, has black squirrels. A philanthropic business man imported them from Austria for a park he built and they have spread to neighboring areas. They seem to exist happily with our indigenous gray squirrels, but there doesn't seem to be inbreeding. No light charcoal squirrels that I've seen.❤ 🐿
    Some of my favorite taxidermy dioramas are the squirrels doing human activities like bowling(with acorns) and playing other sports.
    My adult daughter purchased a taxidermy squirrel half, the back end including tail. Just thought you'd want to know that. 😂
    Sorry about the rain out.

    I’m surprised you haven’t been picked up by a major network for a travel series. Your videos are professional and the way you talk and give lots of info is top notch. All one would have to do is watch other peoples channels and nobody is as good as you. Keep up to great work.

Yes, the weather is mostly high winds in the area. Enjoy the Carolina’s. There is another visitor center if you go into NC from Carowinds , the NC one just as you get on the highway. Both are very nice and I get all my travel info from both. 💕👍🙂

    They could've snuck in a Chocolate Coin or a Jolly Roger flag as South Carolina holds the wreck of the probably the most infamous pirate ship of them all, the Queen Anne's Revenge, although no one knows where Blackbeard's remains are (Body may have been thrown overboard, his head was hung from Msynards Bowsprit and was lost to time, this all occured in North Carolina though after QAR had been wrecked and abandoned).
