i love all cats but i have to say Tara in the window is the most personality she's shown on any of your videos before. I love seeing her so comfortable and playful!
He should have named her Tiara, since she's such a princess.
Guys like you and Traveling Robert are so talented at creating, that I actually prefer longer videos. I don't usually watch until you have three new ones out.
Your discoveries of quirky is why I started watching your videos and so happy you are back to routes on the road and filming. THANK you for sharing your journey.
Back when I was young drive in movies were everywhere. Wish they would come back. I remember those speakers and cars had no AC. They had a Jeep with a huge gun of some type and they would spray for mosquitos so you could keep your windows open. They did it a little before the movie started so everyone was in their cars. Not sure what kind of highly toxic chemicals they used but it worked great. If there was no breeze it would just linger in the air. How anyone my age is still alive is amazing! Oh and lead paint doesn't taste that bad if you wash it down with water from the garden hose.
Drive-In tip. Living in Branson, we have 3 that are only about 75 miles away. When we go, we use an FM radio app on our phones, tune in to the correct station and use earbuds. This allows us to hear everything better while sitting outside the car or while in the restroom or snack area. 🎉
Cool hack why did I not think of this. Thx 👍
Calling lettuce on a burger decorations might be the stupidest thing I have ever heard
The only veg he eats is potatoes. All the rest are only decorations
Mom my used to tell me-if you don't have something nice to say, be quiet. Happy Mother's Day in Heaven Mom. You were right. See Mom? I didn't say anything that wasn't nice.
It’s so nice to see Tara out and about. She’s such a reserved kitty.
Great video, Eric. I grew up with drive in movies. So much fun. Glad they are coming back.
Loving the longer videos!! Keep'em coming!!
I think I already said this but it’s really nice to see the NOMADIC FANATIC back. ❤️. Lovin these videos. Thank you.
Great video Eric and we really enjoy your longer videos of 25 to 35 minutes. Thanks 😊
@17:53 Hey i think Tulsa opened that time capsule in 2007 and the car is in a museum in Tulsa. Also theres another Drive in movie in OKC called Winchester Drive in with a cool neon cowboy sifn that waves
You should try the Sunset Drive in, in Auroura MO.Too.......
Enjoyed a look at my hometown! I think there was blue-green algae in the pond at the blue whale so it's not safe. I imagine the liability insurance would be steep for a pond too. They should stock it and make it a fishing pond. We used to drive by that on the way to Missouri years ago and there would be tons of people out on it and in the pond.
I believe there were also snakes
LOVING THE LONGER FORMAT!!! Family and I are really enjoying being able to watch more content! Keep ‘em coming brother!
Awesome video. Glad you’re doing RT 66 again. Nice to see they’re reviving it a little 😊
I ❤ love drive-Ins. They have one here across from trailer/RV park here in Sparks Nevada. It's so close I can walk to it. 😁 I have always wanted to travel Route 66!!! You would be awesome to travel with. Thank you SO much for taking me along! ❤ Hope I can travel it in 2026! 💖😘💖 kiss the fuzzy butts for me. Lots of 💜😊
Another interesting video. Hated to see it end!
Another long video!!! I like them Eric!
This is another great Route 66 video. I like seeing the quirkily things on Route 66. Thank you Eric. 👍🙃😊
☠️ This is why traversing backroads and the old blue highway is ever so entertaining. One gets to enjoy quirky roadside points of interest along with talking with local folk sharing their tales & a bit of town history.
Been following for about 3 years. Love your enthusiasm, miss Jax, but love Opie and Tara..Thanks for the adventures!
You are livin' large Eric. Thanks for the video! I like the ones that are longer than 20 minutes. Later....
Dude, this video and your last.... TOP NOTCH. Absolutely loved em, and love how happy you are right now!
Loved your last couple videos. You’re very positive, happy and excited about what you are doing. We’ve been watching for years.
Love finding oddities along the road
My buddy and I missed The Whale and Buck's on 66 also when we did the Mother Road in 2012.. I think we were hungover maybe. LOL. Great video Eric, love ROUTE 66....thanks !
Eric, I am without words… you are the KING of finding off road treasure Dude!!!! I love watching alot or alittle that you give. This video… STUPENDOUSLY FANATICALLY FANTASTIC!!!!! 👏 👏 👏 👍🏻
My mother work at a drive in for 26 years when I was a child and teenager, free movies, great memories
Seen all tbis all the last enough already!!
Those drive in’s are fun to snowmobile through in the winter....Walmart closed ours in 2012. Cottage Grove, MN.
Thanks for giving me ideas of places to visit on a future road trip. Drive in movies are lots of fun but get in line before it gets dark to get the best spots.
drive in are a great experience to pass on, we have one of the few originals not far from us and make it a point to go a couple times a year. Sure its not Dolby digital etc.. but that's part of the experience, our local drive in still has the original 1950s window speakers if you want to use them. The coolest part of our local Drive in is they offer camping spaces, you can camp out in a tent or your RV at the drive in.
Great representation of the area where my wife and I live. My neighborhood is that area to the right of the 58 second mark. Next time you’re in town and if you’re interested I can give you Dollywood tickets. They are planning on building an RV Resort too.
Hey Eric another great one in the can as they say. So maybe someday you could do a filler wishlist (for me) video with say a, 15-20 or ??? second montage look at all the weird, fun, cool, tasty and amazing stops.... so far, that you've had on Route 66. With just the right keywords, bet it would garner a lot of views.
I dig the long and the short vids. When they are jam packed as these, they still don't feel long at all. The added details are much enjoyed. Loved the airbnb at the drive-in. Great concept. Very cool retro trailers. Glad you found this place and shared it.
Safe travels to you, Tara-beara and Opie-dopie. AKA Lady Plushbottom and her sidekick, Fuzzball. 😅
Tater's looking strong n mean. I like it!!!
Onwards with the Nomadic Adventures!!!
🎉 Your positive enthusiasm today is infectious!
John Wick! I’m an addict. Your videos just get better and better. Thanks for the effort you put forth-for our sake.
The Blue whale was super cool. We had one at a grocery store where you could watch cartoons while mom shopped. Great video!
LOVE AL.... great to see he is keeping our history alive...God bless him...amd Thankyou Al...
My hometown. Lots of fun stuff to see and do.
Chickasha Oklahoma has the worlds largest leg lamp from the Christmas story movie looks like your in that area. A must see
Route 66 is 🎰, old school is the new school
Love the quirky discoveries you make and share. The drive in looked like it would be a lot of fun! Loving these videos, safe travels!
Awesome thank you for sharing that
That was a FULL day😊
Thank for coming to Tulsa we've been needing rain. LoL. Buck Atom's is 4 yrs old. We have lots of RT 66 stuff in Tulsa...
Particularly good video. Thanks!!
Watched and enjoyed the whole video! Thanks
Thank you for all your awesome videos. Wish I could follow you around so I could enjoy your fun stops. 😊
gas stations name was Sinclair Eric
Dino was the mascot. 😊
You missed the original old 66 pavement and bridge there by the drive in. Starts at the bridge goes behind the vfw.
You should get that dash carpet for your dash for the kitties
Some nice finds this time on Route 66. And no wonder I like your channel we share the same birthday June 5
I remember going to see True Grit at the drive in with John Wayne. The year 1969, I was 14.
Im loving it Eric you really are a great content creator. I wish I coud have traveled route 66 with my Dad. Before he passed we made it to Burbank to see one of the final Jay Leno shows with Charlie Sheen then I rented a convertible mustang and we went to Santa Monica with the top down to the Santa Monica Pier to see the end of route 66 on the west coast. Me and Pop had a great time. He would have loved these 66 videos for sure. God Bless
Do you remember when you accidentally throw food on the floor? It happens to everyone not just you.
Thanks for letting us come along.. Our drive in just closed .. stupid improvements .. 😊
Nice.
I think you personally revived route 66!!!
You guys make me smile 👍🏼😺😸
i always liked your videos from route 66 the best - it has so many quirky fun places
You syrely find the quirkest sites! Thats why i enjoy watching your videos!
Welcome to my hometown. Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Hope you enjoyed your time in Tulsa.
Used to drive by the Blue Whale but we never stopped. My dad was always in a hurry.
I don’t miss that humidity, but kinda miss the country.
Awesome thanks for sharing
Your joy during the adventures you really like shines thru like that Oklahoma sun!!! I'm late watching this one, but it was worth the wait. I LOVE when you are loving life, Eric.
Considering the proliferation of Canada Geese in these parts, my guess is that there's a problem with e. coli in the water there at that little lake. Swimming areas are always getting closed down, at least temporarily, from the goose poop.
I could have sworn you visited a Whale Statue in a pond before, just like that one. (Maybe it was that same one? Unless there is another that looks just like it. (Though I don't remember the fin slides on the one before.) [maybe 2-3 years ago?] You could climb up out the "Blowhole" (But dont remember if it was open. Same as this one.)
You're never too old
Awesome video see yah Eric an Tara an Opie hugs always
Enjoyed the vlog will deffinately try the drive in when I do route 66 again
Like the longer videos. I’ve got a good Sam membership and actually I’m probably going to renew it just because of the free occasional overnight parking. That totally pays for it.
Yeah for the drive in movies 🍿. Grew up on Whidbey Island and went to the Blue Fox drive in. It’s still going strong. Here in San Diego there is a driven in Santee, not sure of its status. There is something special about the Drive in movies. Also Thank you for taking Route 66, on my bucket list. Enjoy Mother’s Day with Mom. 🌺
Loving the longer videos
Thank you for taking me along love love love the drive-in wish they would all come back❤
Route 66 is STILL a fantastic piece of history. You probably know every FOOT of it ! LOL
That was fun.
good video , I want to go to that drive in now. Thanks for sharing your videos. Drive safe
Next time you come up to the Pacific Northwest come out and Gore's we have the Rodeo Drive-In just off of Highway 3 it's a 3 Plex and we go all the time
Still a thumbs-up 👍to the longer videos.
We stayed at the casino for a few nights in Tulsa, OK. It was really nice, but no hookups.
That wasn't a hospital pisser,
That was a hospital crap catcher!
Riding along with you I get to see what I missed on Route 66,maybe next year.
Route 66 Historical Village is an awesome stop just outside of Tulsa!
I like the new shades. 😎
WOW..i have never been to a 'DRIVE IN" Before, i'll to look one up, they are slowly coming back lately, that one you went to just blows my mind, and...MAYB they like showing classics like "TWISTER"!
Thank you for taking us down rt 66
I'm loving this.
So cool to see a drive-in.
Really enjoying all the quirkiness! Such a fun vid
Sinclair gas had the green dinosaur. Horse with a horn was so funny!
That was a lot of fun Eric! Brought back great memories. Maybe drive-ins will make a comeback. When I was a teen in the 60s, we spent many nights at the drive-in. Wouldn't trade those times for anything!
15th. 🎉. I love long or short videos. Everything you put out is great in my opinion
Thanks for sharing your experience. Another great video!!
Recently had my first drive in movie experience was very awesome.
Im in Oklahoma. Born and raised. South from Tulsa. Yeah Tulsa gets dangerous at night.
Love art. 66! Great video and keep it rolling!
Just so you know the video is great because of the content
There's sooo many trucks on the interstates these days...back roads are they way to go brother!
Love the Route 66 content!!
Yes I want to see Rte 66. This summer heading out that way. Thanks for sharing Eric. Fun.
The drive in was awesome for sure
