Really makes me think about how complicated life seems to be and how it doesn’t need to be that way. It’s not often that we see people who are comfortable with silence at all, and this man is truly living the dream for someone who can enjoy their own company and not have to fill the empty spaces with noisy chaos.
It's important to choose what u want to do with YOUR life , as in choose anything literally. Sum people jus don't belong in the modern loop , drive on brotha 🔥🔥🔥🔥 livinnnn it
Milledgeville/Central State Hospital was once the largest mental hospital in the world with over 10,000 patients. I’m in my early 50’s and know people a little older than me who were patients there at one time. Know at least one person who had electric shock “treatment” there. Those of us in Georgia of a certain age understand when someone said “send you to Milledgeville” what that meant. Many families sent relatives there and completely abandoned them.
Ga native here and I was about to post the same thing. It was a common response when someone said something crazy that you would drop them off in Milledgeville.😅
I live in Milledgeville and my mom used to be a head nurse at the asylum/mental institution you were visiting! Some of those buildings still facilitate other services. My dad is on the board to restore on the buildings for different uses. She cared so much about her patients because my brother is special needs. I wish I found your channel earlier because she would've loved to talk to you about the hospital. ❤❤
That would be awesome if they could restore some of those buildings. We use to have a lake house on lake Sinclair and would go to into Milledgeville to eat and shop. We would drive out and see the asylum sometimes. It's definitely creepy and ominous looking these days.
I'm glad you wrote, the information you gave, gives me a different perspective on that complex. I'm hoping they'll revitalize that campus, the buildings look like they have strong bones!
I have a relative named Rose that was a patient there from the 1950?-1970s. Mom said that they did electric shock treatments on her, and she was never able to come home. If your Mom knew a Rose there, I would like to know.
I went to GA College back in the late 80's early 90's and did volunteer work at a building that held 4 different age groups. Emmit Dimerson was in charge of both blg's. I worked with children from ages 5-16 for class credit. I'll never forget those 4 months of my life. It made me rethink how blessed I am to be able to do the things we all take for granted like feed ourselves, drive a car, or brush our teeth. I asked Emmit if their parents come visit them and he sadly said that most of them drop them off and never come back.
In the 70s I went to college in Milledgeville. I sang with a couple of friends, one of whom lived with his parents in one of those abandoned houses as his dad worked at Central State. We used to rehearse there occasionally going over occasionally and sing for some of the patients. My attitude about mental illness began to change from that point. Feel like, with this video, I have visited a very happy chapter of my life. Thank you.
Yes, “send you to Milledgeville” was used as an insult. Having a learning disability, I was picked on and told that in my younger years. I had a cousin who lived in Milledgeville not at the state hospital but in the town on the north side. I think that Hospital could be used today because people with problems could get help there. Another town you could check out is Warm Springs Georgia. President Rosevelt started going to Warm Springs has a treatment for polio. Now there is a school there for people with disabilities. Also, they have a hospital for people with different disabilities like in a wheelchair. I went there in the early 90's and I loved being there.
I'm having a pretty stressful few weeks ahead of me. I quit my job, I'm moving to a new city, taking steps in a new direction to achieve my dream not too dissimilar to yours, Trent. This video calmed my anxiety, even if just for a short while, and for that I am thankful. Keep doing what you do :)
Same. Found out my Dad has Cancer a few weeks ago & my mum was diagnosed with a heart condition😢 I wish you all the best & pray you find your happiness❤
I live in Small town in Georgia about 30 Minutes away from Milledgeville, and there actually used to be a funny saying back when the mental asylum was still being used. Whenever someone said “Hey, I’m going to Milledgeville.” Someone would always respond with “Careful, they might keep you!” Just a fun fact.
I grew up not to much farther in Forsyth, Ga and whenever I would act up my parents would always say "you don't want us to send you to Milledgeville do you"
As a Georgia resident born and raised Milledgeville is known by everyone to be the place you go when you’re crazy/insane! My great great grandmother got sent there when she lost her 10 day old baby in a tornado in the 1940’s. Never been there so it’s nice to finally see it!
There is something so special about your videos, they just hit different than most others I watch. You really have a talent for film and drawing your audience in. I get the warm fuzzies every time! ☺️ And Millie is just precious!! 🥰
I found out Trent was a pro filmmaker & worked on one of the Marvel films😲 He's incredibly talented & a great storyteller. Trent's videos always calm me down & help me relax😊
How’s it possible to film all the shots? Does he run down the road with equipment, set up the camera the for the shot, hike back down to the van and drive across fresh snow past the camera? Then go retrieve camera and repeat the process with a different stretch of road. Am I crazy to think there’s another person with him?
Even if there was someone else with him it wouldnt change anything other than hed have a little less work to do by him self so itd make no sense to lie about it. You still have to do things like purposefully setting up shots and retracing your steps as if it was the first time for the audience. Or reshooting things with better angles or shooting B roll.
This was my first video I’ve watched. I went home and told my wife about it, and now we’re hooked. We turned on our smart tv in our bedroom, boiled water for tea, and laid back and watched 5 or 6 of your videos. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Just to tell you how bad it was. In the late '50's My Uncle w/ Epilepsy was sent there in a straight jacket for months. When finally a new young Doctor came in and said "this man is FINE,, He has Epilepsy, He's NOT Insane" release him NOW! And they did. Thank GOD for that young Doctor.. I went w/ my Dad which was his younger brother to bring him back home. That place was brutal and uncontrolled ! The people that worked at that Mental Hospital will burn in HELL for the pure torture they put the patients thru..
I’ve was born and currently live in milledgeville since 1974, I work on that property, several buildings you shown are still in use, would have loved to Met u and shown u some behind the scenes type stuff!!!
Hi Thomey, I’m in Warner Robins and have always heard about this place and would love to metal detect the area and get a tour. Anyway I can get in touch with you?
bro deserves everything in the world, travels around alone with his cute dog, trained I also live alone and don't really talk to anyone as such, your videos help me through the day,
It truly is. Brings back memories of when i'd go up to the hills in the summer and my two Rottie's would just cuddle up next to me as we would watch the world go by.
Part of my clinical nurse's training was spending a day AR Central State Hospital and it was horrific! The thing he we saw still sticks in my mind and heart!
I am always saddened when I see places like this abandoned and standing empty. In this age of homelessness, it could house so many people, and at least make amends for the wrongs that were done there. Great video!
I would rather live with ghosts than in a tent in winter. Anyway, there are ways to help them along., and new energy would help to disperse the old.@@GhostStalkerActual
@@GhostStalkerActualnothing can happen outside the normal laws of cause and effect we all recognize..no ghosts, no magic, no miracles, no witches, no afterlife, just this.
hey brother, i wanted to thank you for the content you make. i’ve been struggling with mental health issues for a month straight (panic attacks, anxiety, schizophrenia) and watching your videos has helped me stay grounded as well as keep my mind engaged in something other than my illnesses. i thank you a million times for being a humble and authentic human being of one which i can relate to less for the van living. you remind me of who i was before my diagnosis and this reminder has been eye opening and revelatory. as i begin my journey to wellness again i find that watching your content has helped me to get back to who i was. thank you for unintentionally helping out a random stranger, i believe finding you on youtube was no coincidence. you, your messages, your words, your content have all been medicine for me. much love to you.
I’m a little late to the comments, but I’m a newer viewer, and just wanted to say that the energy I feel watching these types of vids is so great. It’s helping me embrace simple living even more. I would love to be able to emanate your lifestyle away from this “corporate society.” Maybe one day! 🍂🌱
Within the first few seconds, I knew I recognized these buildings. No, I havent physically been there, but I love watching urban explorers. "Exploring with Josh" has been here too. So cool to see so many are finding these places.
I knew right off where that is and yes, it is an old Mental Health Hospital BUT it's also one of the places that the state used for training Correctional Officers. I was actually trained there myself for 6 weeks back in 1999-2000. We actually slept in that first building there on the first floor where you go in and to the right. Our other training was held in the other room and some upstairs and we had to march to the cafeteria which was quite a bit away. Oh and a quick note: The bathrooms and shower areas where pretty bad even then. I remember seeing the tubs which we joked about using but I don't think anyone was brave enough, even back then.
We actually tried filming a video here last year and had security come out and tell us we couldn't even approach the buildings and gave us a trespass warning. They told us we were confined to staying on the sidewalks and couldn't approach the buildings. Bummer for us, but I'm glad that you got to visit and document the buildings and asylum better than we could. Not sure what we were doing that seemed suspicious to them, but given this location's reputation, lots of urban explorers have entered the premises without permission so I get the need for the security. Great camera work and love tuning in to your travels with Millie. It's awesome to see you hanging out in and around Georgia. There are lots of places to explore here. A recommendation of mine is to visit Rome, GA and take a look at our cemetery, Myrtle Hill Cemetery. The cemetery dates back to 1857 and is the final resting place for over 20,000 of Rome’s most notable residents including 368 Civil War graves, four US Congressmen, a Congressman of the Confederate States of America, a US Senator and Ellen Axson Wilson, wife of the 28th President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson.
He could also check out NWGRH - I used to work there until it was shut down. Last I heard, they only operate the Forensics Unit. Floyd County Sheriff probably has a bit to say on how they kicked everyone out and onto the streets. That's why the Floyd County Hospitality Center (Jail) is so infamously crowded.
Enjoyed this very much. Most Georgians, including locals, do not realize that the entire complex covers over 1700 acres. A recent TV news report covered the efforts to mark and map out over 25,000 unmarked graves.
Even after watching your channel for the past few years, I am still blown away with the amount of effort you put into obtaining different shots. I truly consider you to be the GOAT of van life content. Thanks for the entertainment over the years man.
What most ppl dont realize is Millidgeville was actually the original capitol of Georgia. Also on the grounds around back is a cemetery you can go to..... would've been cool to see you took a walk thru it. Also the asylum is said to be very haunted and a couple times a year a group host a walk thru. Loved the beach.....the sounds of waves, gentle wind and nature is so relaxing.....as the sounds of rain and thunder. Be safe on hne roads 🙏🕊️💜
My great grandfather was committed (by my great grandmother) to that hospital in the early 1900’s. He died and was buried there. I’ve driven through there many times. It is a creepy place with a very dark past. No way I would ever spend the night there!!
I saw the title and I said to myself... I bet it's Milledgeville... That or it was going to be south-side Macon. I've lived here for most of my life and man, let me tell you, time has not been kind to the central GA area. I've been up to that asylum and man it really is like something out of a horror movie - and when I had to go up there it was a dark and stormy night too - I swear to God the only thing it was missing was that classic streak of lightning and some thunder.
Just discovered your YT channel. Two years ago, before he died, my partner took me to Milledgeville. He owned 130 acres not far from there. We toured the grounds as you did and it was eerie and sad, but also it held a very special meaning for me. When I was about 9 years old, we got a phone call from my Grandmother. My Step Grandad had been committed to the insane asylum for several years and we suddenly got this call that he had died. No real cause of death was ever given. I had wondered about milledgeville and his death, for years. After the trip there with Stephen, I had more questions than answers, but at least now the far away place where they sent him, is no longer a memory without a picture. It was a very haunting but beautiful place when I went there. And watching your video reminded me of one of the last days that Stephen and I spent together. Keep doing these videos, because you don't know whose lives you touch with these trips:-)
I actually live in Milledgeville, that place is right down the street from where I live, they have haunted tours at the hospital complex (which you can find on the events section of Facebook) and they just sold that whole neighborhood of houses a few months ago.
This is my first video of yours, great work all around bro. One idea I had at the end seeing you warming up that meal using your oven is that you should consider a stove top pressure cooker and use the "pot in pot" method to heat using steam. It is extremely fuel efficient and it's great for cooking in general. I've used mine when camping and just set it some coals from the fire and not even used gas. Anyways, thanks for the video can't wait to check the others out!
Dude your videos are so amazing I love to watch them dude. My dad passed away last year, I just had a baby 2 months ago, my wife is a stay at home mom and I work 55-60 hours a week to make ends meet. On top of that I am full time in online school getting my degree. Even with that craziness going on I set time aside and I watch your videos on my lunch breaks everyday at work, I try to break it up until you upload again so I don’t binge it all at once! These videos are a great breather for me man. There’s lots of people I’m sure with different situations that find solace in your uploads. I truly believe you enjoy what you do and make these videos for you, that radiates to all of us and affects us in so many ways. Thank you again my man, I hope when you see the support we give you it makes it all worth it for you. You never owed any of us anything yet you make these videos and share them to the world. We love you!
I live in South Georgia - my parent & grandparents experienced a verrrry paranormal event back in the 1950’s/60’s while traveling to Milledgeville (the VA hospital) missing time but also time dilation
I was born and raised in Milledgeville. All of my grandparents worked there and/or retired from Central State Hospital. The white building in the center which resembles the White House is the Powell Building. That is the original and main building of the asylum that dates back to the 1800s.
Well Trent, found you again. Changed phone companies and lost RUclips favorites. But you’re back. I enjoy your content. You are awesome and Millie is a doll. Looking forward to enjoying your videos. ❤
I grew up on those my grounds from birth till marriage. My Father was the Psychiatrist over the long term care division. Those houses, there are MANY more, are the staff houses. Some were converted to assisted living for the patients. Most all have been sold to one man that is "supposedly" rehabing them to rent out. My brother tried to buy the house he and I grew up in and never even had a returned call. All the trees my Daddy planted, flattened. It is so sad and we need mental health BADLY and there is the campus- just being left to ruin- at least rehab it for homeless Veterans. There is still a Georgia War Vet. Unit I think.
Please be careful out there, Trent. There are bad people and wild animals that could attack you and Millie. My friend and I just prayed for your safety. We love you kiddo, stay safe! ❤❤❤❤
Your video popped up on my U-Tube feed tonight for the first time and I had to watch it because of your subject. I was a student nurse at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta in the middle 60's and we did our psych rotation there. We spent 2 months there. It was very much a locked down facility. We as students were escorted to our wards and our classrooms every day. All wards were locked and we had a guard with us at all times. I am now 79 so I don't have a lot of memories there but I do remember how sad a place it was. You really took meback in time today. I subscribed to your videos.
FYI...born in Ga. Milledgeville used to house insane people. When we were kids..we used to tell each other..."they gonna send you to Milledgeville, cause you're crazy!" I personally think we need to re open some of those institutions, instead of allowing crazy to run the streets.
All of us that grew up anywhere near milledgeville I'm from Columbus myself said and heard that phrase they're going to send you to milledgeville lol and yeah I agree we need to open some of these places again
the horror stories of milli edge village made it “illegal” but what is worse? hooverville streets not safe drugs and vagrant criminals drifting in public misery ?
While the USA does have very poor mental healthcare as a whole, these institutions are just so dangerous, potentially. So much potential for abuse, hidden away, as evidenced by the stores that have come out of these places throughout the last 150+ years. There is definitely some strangeness to these institutions in the 1800s. The amount of people that were in them compared to the population size. Were that many people really mentally ill? Were many simply generally ill people who just couldn't be bothered to be cared for by their families? Were they political dissidents who were a threat to the status quo?
I absolutely love your videos. You put so much extra time and effort into making them the best. All the different angles, entrance shots, exit shots, all of it. You are by far my favorite RUclipsr. After finding your channel I've introduced my wife and kids and we all have sat down and binge watched. We love Millie, she is beautiful and sweet and the best camping companion. We are getting our first bigger bred dog(boxer) next month, we are getting a girl and my wife and kids decided they want to name her Millie. She's going to be our camping buddy. We look forward to your new videos and can't wait to see what the next adventure is you take us on. Thank you Trent and Millie for allowing us to tag along in your life. Till next time. The Savage Family
I absolutely love that you’ve got the whole family watching my videos. That is so awesome!!! Also!!! Your naming your new pup Millie?!? Ahhh!!! Millie and I are so honored. ❤️❤️❤️ thank you for your support and sharing this with me!
I've lived in GA all my life, and my great-grandfather got shock treatments in the 1950s at Milledgeville. My husband and I visited the abandoned grounds about 6 years ago. There's a place where they have rows of small grave markers for some of the hundreds of people who died there. I'm an amateur photographer, and as I was taking photos of the grave markers, I swear I heard laughter in the air. Creepy vibes and most likely haunted place. One question - when we went, there were patrols on the grounds to make sure no one was entering the buildings, as they are unsafe. Were the patrols still there when you went?
Loved watching your interaction with Millie...She's super cute and full of energy...The beach visit , you used to go to, as a child, was beautiful to see...A few years back, I visited the family Bach and had experienced quite a bit of mixed feelings, when I visited it, as an adult...I wondered if you had similar emotions...Your research on the abandoned buildings was quite surprising because with everything that went on in that place, it did take quite a while, before it was understandably closed down...Things back in the day was just proof, how mental health, was dealt with and was sooooo wrong, on soooo many levels...I see your water system is back, up and running...Anyway young Trent...As usual, look forward to your next adventure, but until then...Take care and safe travels.
As a Georgian-Milledgeville Ga is where Julia Robert's is from & in the 80's use to have mental hospitals that ppl were sent to. This place is about 45 mins from where I live. I love small towns. Be careful & have fun on your Journey.
Growing up in Georgia as a child in the 1970s, being sent to Milledgeville from misbehaving was often used as a threat. Whatever you do, please don’t send me to Milledgeville!
First thing I thought of when I seen that place. Mom would tell me if you don't straighten up I'm going to send you to Milledgeville. Even the school principal would mention it when there was a problem student.
Very interesting... I was a student nurse in the 1960s. Part of our psychiatry rotation was to study patients at Central State Hospital. Several nursing schools in GA sent their students there for a quarter. During the week, we actually stayed in the building with patients on floors above and below us. Other weekends we wenthome on Friday and came back on Sundayevening.. The houses were doctors and other staffs homes. We actually helped with EST (Electric Shock Treatments) The stories we could tell!!!
That would have been interesting. I did my psych rotation at a small facility near Phoenix that seemed to be more catered (not the right word) to treating depression and behavioral disorders. Although before our first day there I earned the respect of our instructor who overheard me telling the other student; there’s no reason to be afraid, these people are just like us but are having problems in their life. I was also a Nurse Extern at the county hospital and had to sit with residents from Arizona State Hospital when they needed medical care. I particularly remember 2 gentleman with the same name with schizophrenia diagnosis. They were different as night and day. Would also have to observe (sit with) patients who’d harmed themselves. I learned to be very empathetic
Huge employer CSH Milledgeville. Decent living wages with benefits and path to advancement. Emergency rooms struggle nowadays to find a bed in mental health crisis units. A suicidal patient was discharged back to home after vascular surgeon stitched the wound. I worked at the med/surg hospital. So many services were provided at the Culver Kidd building.
Why where there so many crazy people back then ? Seems like there’s a lot of these places But honestly, they appear to be repurposed and may have been universities or even plantation/ factory towns.
We have 2 aussies and ours LOVE watermelon. We usually on our watermelon wednsdays give the dogs their own huge slice and they love it. They even know the word watermelon when we say it to them now lol.
I don't know what it is, but your videos are one of the only things that can really calm me down after a long, stressful day. So thank you for giving me this stress relief. And by the way, Millie is one of the cutest dogs I've ever seen. ❤
You look like you're having a lot of fun it's really cool the biggest smile I had on my face is when you and Millie were playing with the stick at the beach there's nothing like the love we share with our pets
I just got home from work. What do I see??? A 39 minute video from Trent! You have no idea how it makes my day!!! Thank you for your (as always) amazing videos! ❤ I freaking LOVE them!
This place is what the paranormal shows do research on. Very interesting. And Millie running on the beach with her own camera on back was hilarious, another brilliant day. Thankyou !!
I explored the abandoned asylum in the intro of this video, on my channel. huge open hallways, multiple multi-story buildings very easy to get lost. nice to see others finding it also.
New subscriber here. This is a beautiful video. I have lived in Georgia at least 45 of my 61 years and have yet to see some of the sights you visited. Now I have something for my to do list! I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Northeast Georgia Mountains. and North Carolina. Visit old gold mines, abandoned moon shine stills. Water falls, fishing, hiking. I camp were no one goes. 10 haunted houses Chapel Hill NC. Creeks that sound like rivers and much more. I enjoyed your video. Thank You
I lived in chapel hill during college, and then fell 100 feet in the mountains just outside of Franklin NC, a mile into Georgia. I don’t know about the haunted houses of chapel hill, but that’s not surprising.
You fell 100 ft. You have been blessed. I fell down Blackrock Mountain in 1994. I was riding my street bycical got to the top, then started down when I fell off at the first turn back.I don't now the ft but I ended at the bottom. I've been Blessed over and over. Have a safe and happy journeys. Your companion is the best kind.I Love all critters Exploring is my favorite activity. I'm in Clayton Ga.
I’m a 72 yo woman…mom & grandma. I just found your channel & I must say with all honesty I absolutely love it. I will definitely subscribe to it & make sure I hit that like button each time I watch one. I love your content & just love the way you approach things & look at life. And this may sound kinda old fashioned & corny but you seem to be such a nice young man…& even though there are nice young men around…thankfully my son is one too….but so many guys think it’s “unman” like to be nice. I will have to say that my favorite thing about your channel is Millie….and your love and affection you show for her & how important she is too you. You didn’t get upset or irritated with her when she jumped up on you while you were in your hammock…she was adorable! And she shows how much she loves you! A doggie is the best companion…or even a kitty….for traveling…there’s no drama or “emotions” getting in the way except for good ones. My entire family are huge animal lovers…we love giving rescues a good home. I will continue to enjoy your travels along with your perfect companion & wish nothing but the absolute best and the safest of travels and the best of health to you both. Enjoy this very special time in your life….& thanks for sharing great content! Hugs to your fur baby…she is precious….& even though I’m 72 & a grandma, you’re not bad on the eyes!👵🏼☺️ almost forgot! the ones I really love are the “scary” places you go and where there’s snow! Love the beach too but really love the cozy feeling of being in a warm place looking at the snow!
Going to the places you use to go with especially with a parent that passed away only makes it more imperative to make these locations tradition. My Father also passed away 2023 and going to places hes been hundreds of times only makes me feel closer to him. RIP Dad i love you and miss you dearly.
Ha, i recognize good ole Beaufort SC as the last spot you stayed at, the Sands beach. And i recognized the boat ramp by Harbor Island. To get there you actually had to drive less than a couple hundred feet from my old house. Small world lol
i like it when youre clean camping, keeping inside of the van neat and organized..i have watch a lot of dirty van campers like stuffs are everywhere like i cant even watch the whole video how dirty and messy they are living in a van..
Btw…I live about 1 hour and 45 minutes away from Milledgeville. We use to say “if you ain’t crazy when you get to Milledgeville (the state hospital), you will be when you get out.” And believe me, it proved to be true on MANY occasions.
My grandmother lived at that hospital half her adult life, due to they used to send people there who had Parkinson’s, seizures, what-not. She endured electric shock treatments here & HATED THIS PLACE.
What unique place should I go explore next?
Go to a forest that is haunted but at the same time should be free from wild life for safety.
Appalachia’s
Conjuring House!
INDONESIA
Conjuring House yup

Exactly I'm very envious of this dude. Such a simple relaxed chilled life. I wish I could do what he does.
Milledgeville/Central State Hospital was once the largest mental hospital in the world with over 10,000 patients.
I’m in my early 50’s and know people a little older than me who were patients there at one time. Know at least one person who had electric shock “treatment” there.
Those of us in Georgia of a certain age understand when someone said “send you to Milledgeville” what that meant.
Many families sent relatives there and completely abandoned them.
Right u not lie because from valdosta ga ppl said that to
Ga native here and I was about to post the same thing. It was a common response when someone said something crazy that you would drop them off in Milledgeville.😅
I live in Georgia too, my whole life, you're right, I've heard people say it all the time. I'm from Evans and candler county.
@@leslieguerrero4046 Know both of those counties. Went to Georgia Southern in the late 80s/early 90s. Originally from Bleckley County.
Absolute facts.. grew up in Hazlehurst Georgia.. heard that saying all the time
My Father was the one who STOPPED electro-shock thrapy. He was there from 1967 until 1996 when he retired.
That’s a great fact. So many of the mental asylums staff participated in abuse to the patients.
Shocking news 😂
Steve Hollomon? Maybe? He worked there as well.
Your dad sounds like a really good man and done something wonderful 👏
I live in Milledgeville and my mom used to be a head nurse at the asylum/mental institution you were visiting! Some of those buildings still facilitate other services. My dad is on the board to restore on the buildings for different uses. She cared so much about her patients because my brother is special needs. I wish I found your channel earlier because she would've loved to talk to you about the hospital. ❤❤
That would be awesome if they could restore some of those buildings. We use to have a lake house on lake Sinclair and would go to into Milledgeville to eat and shop. We would drive out and see the asylum sometimes. It's definitely creepy and ominous looking these days.
I'm glad you wrote, the information you gave, gives me a different perspective on that complex. I'm hoping they'll revitalize that campus, the buildings look like they have strong bones!
I have a relative named Rose that was a patient there from the 1950?-1970s. Mom said that they did electric shock treatments on her, and she was never able to come home. If your Mom knew a Rose there, I would like to know.
@@ceemee7368 I will ask her but I think she started there in the mid 80"s but I'll definitely check.
I went to GA College back in the late 80's early 90's and did volunteer work at a building that held 4 different age groups. Emmit Dimerson was in charge of both blg's. I worked with children from ages 5-16 for class credit. I'll never forget those 4 months of my life. It made me rethink how blessed I am to be able to do the things we all take for granted like feed ourselves, drive a car, or brush our teeth. I asked Emmit if their parents come visit them and he sadly said that most of them drop them off and never come back.

Well said brother . Keep on keeping on
I sip cinnamon-flavored whiskey after work, and ALSO, think that's a wonderful life!❤
Sipping on some benchmark myself! 😂and just found this channel
Ha, too funny. I’m sipping Jack and just found this channel 🤣
Tequila for me with berries. I love these videos. Hometown:Minnesota, Residence: Georgia✨️
In the 70s I went to college in Milledgeville. I sang with a couple of friends, one of whom lived with his parents in one of those abandoned houses as his dad worked at Central State. We used to rehearse there occasionally going over occasionally and sing for some of the patients. My attitude about mental illness began to change from that point. Feel like, with this video, I have visited a very happy chapter of my life. Thank you.
I am a senior woman alone and you and Millie always make me smile!! Thank you❤
Older guy here. Always come back to this channel for the cozy vibes.
Millie seems like she has a great life and she is truly LOVED! Godspeed!
its like a pubg map in real life.
@@audydooody7697what does this have to do with his comment 😂
Do you know what type of breed Millie is?
she looks like a pitbull mix!@@robertnagy7540 super well trained dog
Yes, “send you to Milledgeville” was used as an insult. Having a learning disability, I was picked on and told that in my younger years. I had a cousin who lived in Milledgeville not at the state hospital but in the town on the north side. I think that Hospital could be used today because people with problems could get help there. Another town you could check out is Warm Springs Georgia. President Rosevelt started going to Warm Springs has a treatment for polio. Now there is a school there for people with disabilities. Also, they have a hospital for people with different disabilities like in a wheelchair. I went there in the early 90's and I loved being there.
I'm having a pretty stressful few weeks ahead of me. I quit my job, I'm moving to a new city, taking steps in a new direction to achieve my dream not too dissimilar to yours, Trent. This video calmed my anxiety, even if just for a short while, and for that I am thankful. Keep doing what you do :)
Praying for you friend
Good luck with this new chapter in life!
Same. Found out my Dad has Cancer a few weeks ago & my mum was diagnosed with a heart condition😢
I wish you all the best & pray you find your happiness❤
I was JUST feeling the same way! A lot of stress with school right now and this video revived me. 😊
You will be alright bruh
I live in Small town in Georgia about 30 Minutes away from Milledgeville, and there actually used to be a funny saying back when the mental asylum was still being used. Whenever someone said “Hey, I’m going to Milledgeville.” Someone would always respond with “Careful, they might keep you!” Just a fun fact.
😂😂😂 cool
I grew up not to much farther in Forsyth, Ga and whenever I would act up my parents would always say "you don't want us to send you to Milledgeville do you"
I grew up in West GA and I remember hearing little quips about Milledgeville my whole childhood 😊😂
nashville ga say that 2 lol
Yep, grew up in Metter and heard the Ole don't get sent to Milledgeville line lots!
As a Georgia resident born and raised Milledgeville is known by everyone to be the place you go when you’re crazy/insane! My great great grandmother got sent there when she lost her 10 day old baby in a tornado in the 1940’s. Never been there so it’s nice to finally see it!
God...that is so sad to hear :(
There is something so special about your videos, they just hit different than most others I watch. You really have a talent for film and drawing your audience in. I get the warm fuzzies every time! ☺️ And Millie is just precious!! 🥰
I found out Trent was a pro filmmaker & worked on one of the Marvel films😲 He's incredibly talented & a great storyteller. Trent's videos always calm me down & help me relax😊
I always make some food and cozy up and watch him videos@@petarenae4823
How’s it possible to film all the shots? Does he run down the road with equipment, set up the camera the for the shot, hike back down to the van and drive across fresh snow past the camera? Then go retrieve camera and repeat the process with a different stretch of road. Am I crazy to think there’s another person with him?
@mitchpike5582 that's exactly what Trent does😊
Even if there was someone else with him it wouldnt change anything other than hed have a little less work to do by him self so itd make no sense to lie about it. You still have to do things like purposefully setting up shots and retracing your steps as if it was the first time for the audience. Or reshooting things with better angles or shooting B roll.
This was my first video I’ve watched. I went home and told my wife about it, and now we’re hooked. We turned on our smart tv in our bedroom, boiled water for tea, and laid back and watched 5 or 6 of your videos. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Just to tell you how bad it was. In the late '50's My Uncle w/ Epilepsy was sent there in a straight jacket for months. When finally a new young Doctor came in and said "this man is FINE,, He has Epilepsy, He's NOT Insane" release him NOW! And they did. Thank GOD for that young Doctor.. I went w/ my Dad which was his younger brother to bring him back home. That place was brutal and uncontrolled ! The people that worked at that Mental Hospital will burn in HELL for the pure torture they put the patients thru..
Yes I've lived in Ga all my life which is 47 yrs and I remember hearing horrible stories about Milledgeville and that hospital.
Wie schrecklich! Unvorstellbar was die Menschen dort ertragen mussten.
I’ve was born and currently live in milledgeville since 1974, I work on that property, several buildings you shown are still in use, would have loved to Met u and shown u some behind the scenes type stuff!!!
Hi Thomey, I’m in Warner Robins and have always heard about this place and would love to metal detect the area and get a tour. Anyway I can get in touch with you?
@@StratToneyeo I’m in Georgia lmk if you need a second set of hands I do videography would love to collab with you brother
@@McClusterishereI want to tag along and be a uneducated on the situation comedic relief commentator
Still in use for what?
Bro your van is one of the best designs ive ever seen for a camper van and i would 100% be cozy with this type of design
bro deserves everything in the world, travels around alone with his cute dog, trained I also live alone and don't really talk to anyone as such, your videos help me through the day,
Him hugging his dog at 36:16 is the most wholesome thing I've seen in awhile...
It truly is. Brings back memories of when i'd go up to the hills in the summer and my two Rottie's would just cuddle up next to me as we would watch the world go by.
it's jus tthe bet when you have your best buddy with you and Millie is so adorable always makes me smile
Part of my clinical nurse's training was spending a day AR Central State Hospital and it was horrific! The thing he we saw still sticks in my mind and heart!
what did you see?
I live in my suv and it’s truly the best when it rains. It’s indescribably comforting.
I am always saddened when I see places like this abandoned and standing empty. In this age of homelessness, it could house so many people, and at least make amends for the wrongs that were done there. Great video!
You have just said a mouth full people needs a place to place to live 😊
Uh. I went to college in Milledgeville. Those buildings are haunted as shit

hey brother, i wanted to thank you for the content you make. i’ve been struggling with mental health issues for a month straight (panic attacks, anxiety, schizophrenia) and watching your videos has helped me stay grounded as well as keep my mind engaged in something other than my illnesses. i thank you a million times for being a humble and authentic human being of one which i can relate to less for the van living.
you remind me of who i was before my diagnosis and this reminder has been eye opening and revelatory. as i begin my journey to wellness again i find that watching your content has helped me to get back to who i was.
thank you for unintentionally helping out a random stranger, i believe finding you on youtube was no coincidence. you, your messages, your words, your content have all been medicine for me.
much love to you.
BIG hugs and nuttin but love ❤
Maybe there’s more than coincidence in the world ☮️❤️🌅
John doe sending you love and support for your journey. I know you will get to where you want to be emotionally health wise.
Hey Mr Doe look up Dr Ken Berry here on you tube. Changed my diet and my anxiety and depression has virtually disappeared. Love my new lifestyle
@@crickettmoon7082coincidences are God's way of remaining anonymous.... as the saying goes ;-)
I’m a little late to the comments, but I’m a newer viewer, and just wanted to say that the energy I feel watching these types of vids is so great. It’s helping me embrace simple living even more. I would love to be able to emanate your lifestyle away from this “corporate society.” Maybe one day! 🍂🌱
Within the first few seconds, I knew I recognized these buildings. No, I havent physically been there, but I love watching urban explorers. "Exploring with Josh" has been here too. So cool to see so many are finding these places.
Shout out to the exceptional camera work and editing you are putting into your videos, a real joy to watch!
I knew right off where that is and yes, it is an old Mental Health Hospital BUT it's also one of the places that the state used for training Correctional Officers.
I was actually trained there myself for 6 weeks back in 1999-2000.
We actually slept in that first building there on the first floor where you go in and to the right. Our other training was held in the other room and some upstairs and we had to march to the cafeteria which was quite a bit away.
Oh and a quick note:
The bathrooms and shower areas where pretty bad even then. I remember seeing the tubs which we joked about using but I don't think anyone was brave enough, even back then.
We actually tried filming a video here last year and had security come out and tell us we couldn't even approach the buildings and gave us a trespass warning. They told us we were confined to staying on the sidewalks and couldn't approach the buildings. Bummer for us, but I'm glad that you got to visit and document the buildings and asylum better than we could. Not sure what we were doing that seemed suspicious to them, but given this location's reputation, lots of urban explorers have entered the premises without permission so I get the need for the security.
Great camera work and love tuning in to your travels with Millie. It's awesome to see you hanging out in and around Georgia. There are lots of places to explore here. A recommendation of mine is to visit Rome, GA and take a look at our cemetery, Myrtle Hill Cemetery. The cemetery dates back to 1857 and is the final resting place for over 20,000 of Rome’s most notable residents including 368 Civil War graves, four US Congressmen, a Congressman of the Confederate States of America, a US Senator and Ellen Axson Wilson, wife of the 28th President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson.
They probably did not want you to film Biden's fake White House location.
He could also check out NWGRH - I used to work there until it was shut down. Last I heard, they only operate the Forensics Unit. Floyd County Sheriff probably has a bit to say on how they kicked everyone out and onto the streets. That's why the Floyd County Hospitality Center (Jail) is so infamously crowded.
It is always so nice watching your videos, seeing all the unique places you go to. Thank you for the content!
Enjoyed this very much. Most Georgians, including locals, do not realize that the entire complex covers over 1700 acres. A recent TV news report covered the efforts to mark and map out over 25,000 unmarked graves.
Even after watching your channel for the past few years, I am still blown away with the amount of effort you put into obtaining different shots. I truly consider you to be the GOAT of van life content. Thanks for the entertainment over the years man.
Definitely the GOAT! I've tried watching others but nothing compares.
What most ppl dont realize is Millidgeville was actually the original capitol of Georgia. Also on the grounds around back is a cemetery you can go to..... would've been cool to see you took a walk thru it. Also the asylum is said to be very haunted and a couple times a year a group host a walk thru. Loved the beach.....the sounds of waves, gentle wind and nature is so relaxing.....as the sounds of rain and thunder. Be safe on hne roads 🙏🕊️💜
You are right it was the fourth capital of GA
I love seeing Millies playtime from her point of view, what a fun shot ❤
My great grandfather was committed (by my great grandmother) to that hospital in the early 1900’s. He died and was buried there. I’ve driven through there many times. It is a creepy place with a very dark past. No way I would ever spend the night there!!
My buddy went to college in Milledgeville. We used to get wasted or stoned and go into the abandoned places. Not a great idea, but a great memory.
I saw the title and I said to myself... I bet it's Milledgeville... That or it was going to be south-side Macon. I've lived here for most of my life and man, let me tell you, time has not been kind to the central GA area. I've been up to that asylum and man it really is like something out of a horror movie - and when I had to go up there it was a dark and stormy night too - I swear to God the only thing it was missing was that classic streak of lightning and some thunder.
Just discovered your YT channel. Two years ago, before he died, my partner took me to Milledgeville. He owned 130 acres not far from there. We toured the grounds as you did and it was eerie and sad, but also it held a very special meaning for me. When I was about 9 years old, we got a phone call from my Grandmother. My Step Grandad had been committed to the insane asylum for several years and we suddenly got this call that he had died. No real cause of death was ever given. I had wondered about milledgeville and his death, for years. After the trip there with Stephen, I had more questions than answers, but at least now the far away place where they sent him, is no longer a memory without a picture. It was a very haunting but beautiful place when I went there. And watching your video reminded me of one of the last days that Stephen and I spent together. Keep doing these videos, because you don't know whose lives you touch with these trips:-)
I actually live in Milledgeville, that place is right down the street from where I live, they have haunted tours at the hospital complex (which you can find on the events section of Facebook) and they just sold that whole neighborhood of houses a few months ago.
This is my first video of yours, great work all around bro. One idea I had at the end seeing you warming up that meal using your oven is that you should consider a stove top pressure cooker and use the "pot in pot" method to heat using steam. It is extremely fuel efficient and it's great for cooking in general. I've used mine when camping and just set it some coals from the fire and not even used gas.
Anyways, thanks for the video can't wait to check the others out!
Dude your videos are so amazing I love to watch them dude. My dad passed away last year, I just had a baby 2 months ago, my wife is a stay at home mom and I work 55-60 hours a week to make ends meet. On top of that I am full time in online school getting my degree. Even with that craziness going on I set time aside and I watch your videos on my lunch breaks everyday at work, I try to break it up until you upload again so I don’t binge it all at once! These videos are a great breather for me man. There’s lots of people I’m sure with different situations that find solace in your uploads. I truly believe you enjoy what you do and make these videos for you, that radiates to all of us and affects us in so many ways. Thank you again my man, I hope when you see the support we give you it makes it all worth it for you. You never owed any of us anything yet you make these videos and share them to the world. We love you!
Keep grinding my dude things will work out even if it takes time
Learn to pull out
@@mgtowlevel5293 Definitely better to wait for kids until you’re ready
I can't explain it, but there's something soothing about these videos
True freedom. Not stuck to a debt system.
I live in South Georgia - my parent & grandparents experienced a verrrry paranormal event back in the 1950’s/60’s while traveling to Milledgeville (the VA hospital) missing time but also time dilation
I was born and raised in Milledgeville. All of my grandparents worked there and/or retired from Central State Hospital. The white building in the center which resembles the White House is the Powell Building. That is the original and main building of the asylum that dates back to the 1800s.
Millie living her best life at the beach! That was fun!😋💕🌱🐾
Well Trent, found you again. Changed phone companies and lost RUclips favorites. But you’re back. I enjoy your content. You are awesome and Millie is a doll. Looking forward to enjoying your videos. ❤
I grew up on those my grounds from birth till marriage. My Father was the Psychiatrist over the long term care division. Those houses, there are MANY more, are the staff houses. Some were converted to assisted living for the patients. Most all have been sold to one man that is "supposedly" rehabing them to rent out. My brother tried to buy the house he and I grew up in and never even had a returned call. All the trees my Daddy planted, flattened. It is so sad and we need mental health BADLY and there is the campus- just being left to ruin- at least rehab it for homeless Veterans. There is still a Georgia War Vet. Unit I think.
Yes, there's two war veterans homes still in operation, one is in Milledgeville & the other is in Augusta, GA-- my hometown.
Shameful on your father.
Please be careful out there, Trent. There are bad people and wild animals that could attack you and Millie. My friend and I just prayed for your safety. We love you kiddo, stay safe! ❤❤❤❤
yes, and further south you must be mindful of gators
Your video popped up on my U-Tube feed tonight for the first time and I had to watch it because of your subject. I was a student nurse at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta in the middle 60's and we did our psych rotation there. We spent 2 months there. It was very much a locked down facility. We as students were escorted to our wards and our classrooms every day. All wards were locked and we had a guard with us at all times. I am now 79 so I don't have a lot of memories there but I do remember how sad a place it was. You really took meback in time today. I subscribed to your videos.
FYI...born in Ga. Milledgeville used to house insane people. When we were kids..we used to tell each other..."they gonna send you to Milledgeville, cause you're crazy!" I personally think we need to re open some of those institutions, instead of allowing crazy to run the streets.
All of us that grew up anywhere near milledgeville I'm from Columbus myself said and heard that phrase they're going to send you to milledgeville lol and yeah I agree we need to open some of these places again
the horror stories of milli edge village made it “illegal” but what is worse? hooverville streets not safe drugs and vagrant criminals drifting in public misery ?
While the USA does have very poor mental healthcare as a whole, these institutions are just so dangerous, potentially. So much potential for abuse, hidden away, as evidenced by the stores that have come out of these places throughout the last 150+ years. There is definitely some strangeness to these institutions in the 1800s. The amount of people that were in them compared to the population size. Were that many people really mentally ill? Were many simply generally ill people who just couldn't be bothered to be cared for by their families? Were they political dissidents who were a threat to the status quo?
Yes!
Yep that was a known saying all over the state I believe.. I'm from Vidalia and I know I heard it all the time growing up.
I absolutely love your videos. You put so much extra time and effort into making them the best. All the different angles, entrance shots, exit shots, all of it. You are by far my favorite RUclipsr. After finding your channel I've introduced my wife and kids and we all have sat down and binge watched. We love Millie, she is beautiful and sweet and the best camping companion. We are getting our first bigger bred dog(boxer) next month, we are getting a girl and my wife and kids decided they want to name her Millie. She's going to be our camping buddy. We look forward to your new videos and can't wait to see what the next adventure is you take us on. Thank you Trent and Millie for allowing us to tag along in your life. Till next time.
The Savage Family
I absolutely love that you’ve got the whole family watching my videos. That is so awesome!!! Also!!! Your naming your new pup Millie?!? Ahhh!!! Millie and I are so honored. ❤️❤️❤️ thank you for your support and sharing this with me!
I love how happy your dog is! And you've got a very nice and comfortable van. Thank your for showing us your adventures. Much love from Georgia!
I've lived in GA all my life, and my great-grandfather got shock treatments in the 1950s at Milledgeville. My husband and I visited the abandoned grounds about 6 years ago. There's a place where they have rows of small grave markers for some of the hundreds of people who died there. I'm an amateur photographer, and as I was taking photos of the grave markers, I swear I heard laughter in the air. Creepy vibes and most likely haunted place. One question - when we went, there were patrols on the grounds to make sure no one was entering the buildings, as they are unsafe. Were the patrols still there when you went?
Loved watching your interaction with Millie...She's super cute and full of energy...The beach visit , you used to go to, as a child, was beautiful to see...A few years back, I visited the family Bach and had experienced quite a bit of mixed feelings, when I visited it, as an adult...I wondered if you had similar emotions...Your research on the abandoned buildings was quite surprising because with everything that went on in that place, it did take quite a while, before it was understandably closed down...Things back in the day was just proof, how mental health, was dealt with and was sooooo wrong, on soooo many levels...I see your water system is back, up and running...Anyway young Trent...As usual, look forward to your next adventure, but until then...Take care and safe travels.
As a Georgian-Milledgeville Ga is where Julia Robert's is from & in the 80's use to have mental hospitals that ppl were sent to. This place is about 45 mins from where I live. I love small towns. Be careful & have fun on your Journey.
Julia Roberts is from Smyrna.
Growing up in Georgia as a child in the 1970s, being sent to Milledgeville from misbehaving was often used as a threat. Whatever you do, please don’t send me to Milledgeville!
First thing I thought of when I seen that place. Mom would tell me if you don't straighten up I'm going to send you to Milledgeville. Even the school principal would mention it when there was a problem student.
Very interesting... I was a student nurse in the 1960s. Part of our psychiatry rotation was to study patients at Central State Hospital. Several nursing schools in GA sent their students there for a quarter. During the week, we actually stayed in the building with patients on floors above and below us. Other weekends we wenthome on Friday and came back on Sundayevening.. The houses were doctors and other staffs homes. We actually helped with EST (Electric Shock Treatments) The stories we could tell!!!
That would have been interesting. I did my psych rotation at a small facility near Phoenix that seemed to be more catered (not the right word) to treating depression and behavioral disorders. Although before our first day there I earned the respect of our instructor who overheard me telling the other student; there’s no reason to be afraid, these people are just like us but are having problems in their life.
I was also a Nurse Extern at the county hospital and had to sit with residents from Arizona State Hospital when they needed medical care. I particularly remember 2 gentleman with the same name with schizophrenia diagnosis. They were different as night and day. Would also have to observe (sit with) patients who’d harmed themselves. I learned to be very empathetic
Huge employer CSH Milledgeville. Decent living wages with benefits and path to advancement. Emergency rooms struggle nowadays to find a bed in mental health crisis units. A suicidal patient was discharged back to home after vascular surgeon stitched the wound. I worked at the med/surg hospital. So many services were provided at the Culver Kidd building.
AM GONNA CHECK THOSE AREAS OUT, THOSE HOMES COULD BE A CHEAP PICK UP... emmm
Why where there so many crazy people back then ?
Seems like there’s a lot of these places
But honestly, they appear to be repurposed and may have been universities or even plantation/ factory towns.
@@julieproctor6039so 1/2 the population needs money and turns on the other 1/2 and calls them crazy so they can get fiat currency?
Man I love your style of narratoring, editing, personality, your setup of your van. You got a new subscriber!
Watermelon 🍉 is so good for dogs. My dogs love it. Looks like Millie sure loved her share of the watermelon 🍉
We have 2 aussies and ours LOVE watermelon. We usually on our watermelon wednsdays give the dogs their own huge slice and they love it. They even know the word watermelon when we say it to them now lol.
Had a Sheltie years ago and she got terribly sick every time she ate watermelon.
I don't know what it is, but your videos are one of the only things that can really calm me down after a long, stressful day. So thank you for giving me this stress relief. And by the way, Millie is one of the cutest dogs I've ever seen. ❤
You look like you're having a lot of fun it's really cool the biggest smile I had on my face is when you and Millie were playing with the stick at the beach there's nothing like the love we share with our pets
I just got home from work. What do I see??? A 39 minute video from Trent! You have no idea how it makes my day!!! Thank you for your (as always) amazing videos! ❤ I freaking LOVE them!
when he laid down on his bed at the coast that looked so damn relaxing.
this might be one of the nicest van insides ive seen. and i watch quite a few of these sort of vids
and the fact that it looks almost completely normal on the outside makes it even more amazing
This place is what the paranormal shows do research on. Very interesting. And Millie running on the beach with her own camera on back was hilarious, another brilliant day. Thankyou !!
Your videos make me feel warm and cozy❤ I often watch them right before I go to sleep, thank you for your work very much
Take care of yourself
Gave me hunger game vibes the way you panned the white building and then everything else was abandoned
This is the only youtube channel i DON'T skip any adds on.
🫵🏻Are a legend
Not even one minute in the video and I already know it's gonna be a blast
I’m glad you have your dog with you. Don’t leave van without her!
When I see Millie happy, I'm happy ❤
I explored the abandoned asylum in the intro of this video, on my channel. huge open hallways, multiple multi-story buildings very easy to get lost. nice to see others finding it also.
New subscriber here. This is a beautiful video. I have lived in Georgia at least 45 of my 61 years and have yet to see some of the sights you visited. Now I have something for my to do list! I look forward to watching more of your videos!
I love how you have become the poster boy for StarLink! Freaking awesome. I see you on their advertisements all the time
Well this has a vibe to it
Northeast Georgia Mountains. and North Carolina. Visit old gold mines, abandoned moon shine stills. Water falls, fishing, hiking. I camp were no one goes. 10 haunted houses Chapel Hill NC. Creeks that sound like rivers and much more. I enjoyed your video. Thank You
I lived in chapel hill during college, and then fell 100 feet in the mountains just outside of Franklin NC, a mile into Georgia. I don’t know about the haunted houses of chapel hill, but that’s not surprising.
You fell 100 ft. You have been blessed. I fell down Blackrock Mountain in 1994. I was riding my street bycical got to the top, then started down when I fell off at the first turn back.I don't now the ft but I ended at the bottom. I've been Blessed over and over. Have a safe and happy journeys. Your companion is the best kind.I Love all critters Exploring is my favorite activity. I'm in Clayton Ga.
thank you for helping me sleep Trent stay safe always
Oh T! Your a breath of fresh air! Wish there was more characters like U on RUclips to watch (to many baby men! Your just real!)
I’m a 72 yo woman…mom & grandma. I just found your channel & I must say with all honesty I absolutely love it. I will definitely subscribe to it & make sure I hit that like button each time I watch one. I love your content & just love the way you approach things & look at life. And this may sound kinda old fashioned & corny but you seem to be such a nice young man…& even though there are nice young men around…thankfully my son is one too….but so many guys think it’s “unman” like to be nice. I will have to say that my favorite thing about your channel is Millie….and your love and affection you show for her & how important she is too you. You didn’t get upset or irritated with her when she jumped up on you while you were in your hammock…she was adorable! And she shows how much she loves you! A doggie is the best companion…or even a kitty….for traveling…there’s no drama or “emotions” getting in the way except for good ones. My entire family are huge animal lovers…we love giving rescues a good home. I will continue to enjoy your travels along with your perfect companion & wish nothing but the absolute best and the safest of travels and the best of health to you both. Enjoy this very special time in your life….& thanks for sharing great content! Hugs to your fur baby…she is precious….& even though I’m 72 & a grandma, you’re not bad on the eyes!👵🏼☺️ almost forgot! the ones I really love are the “scary” places you go and where there’s snow! Love the beach too but really love the cozy feeling of being in a warm place looking at the snow!
When I was in nursing school back in 2001, we took a field trip there!!! That place is creepy as he!!😮
Going to the places you use to go with especially with a parent that passed away only makes it more imperative to make these locations tradition. My Father also passed away 2023 and going to places hes been hundreds of times only makes me feel closer to him. RIP Dad i love you and miss you dearly.
Ha, i recognize good ole Beaufort SC as the last spot you stayed at, the Sands beach. And i recognized the boat ramp by Harbor Island. To get there you actually had to drive less than a couple hundred feet from my old house. Small world lol
I'm a newbie to your channel. I love the vibe and coziness of your videos! ❤
i like it when youre clean camping, keeping inside of the van neat and organized..i have watch a lot of dirty van campers like stuffs are everywhere like i cant even watch the whole video how dirty and messy they are living in a van..
Great adventure ☺️. Millie is amazing 💕
Love everything and we need more of those Millie POV cam!! xD
Had a horrible day at work especially having pneumonia couldn’t wait to get home and binge watch this amazing channel. God bless u and millie!
With Millie in the drivers seat you cant go wrong.
Love these videos. The beach was beautiful and I love seeing Millie :)
I have never seen your channel before but it's really good. You have probably heard it before but you're doing a great job. Subscribed.
You’re brave for urban exploring. That’s not for the faint of heart
Trent posting is like me getting a bomb of energy
ong
I know exactly where you are and I must say you are brave to be staying there!!!! Central State has some REALLY CREEPY history. Stay safe.
Millie sensed your excitement and reacted with you 😂for you are truly in your element 😎❤️🙏🫶🫠so darn good 👍
Btw…I live about 1 hour and 45 minutes away from Milledgeville. We use to say “if you ain’t crazy when you get to Milledgeville (the state hospital), you will be when you get out.” And believe me, it proved to be true on MANY occasions.
You're a great story teller. I just appreciate the quality of the filming, but also the information you provide about each stop.
Hot damn!!! 40 minutes, love it!
No wonder I can’t find a good looking guy! They all are living in their Vans❗️🤭🤯
Agreed 💯
My grandmother lived at that hospital half her adult life, due to they used to send people there who had Parkinson’s, seizures, what-not. She endured electric shock treatments here & HATED THIS PLACE.
It is sad we abandoned the mental hospitals, they were replaced by homelessness. Is that an improvenent, maybe, both are inhumane.
