I must admit that I love these "roaming" roadtrips. The more sparse the town, and the fewer people, the better I like it. Thank you, Adam for bringing us along... One kind soul was there when you needed one.🤠🛣 ⛽️ 🎉👏👏
I LOVE these excursions, Adam! You show me parts of the country I would never have otherwise seen. Thank you for sharing and educating us on small town USA.
I just drove through Kansas on my way from California to Arkansas. The rest stops were immaculate and the roads were well maintained. Went through Colorado and the potholes were the worst I’ve ever seen in my life. As soon as we crossed the border into Kansas the roads were great.
You didn't pay attention to the gas & sales taxes you paid in Kansas. That's why. Here in Kansas, we point out that we pay our taxes and have nice roads, but the states surrounding us - Colorado, Missouri, etc. all hardly pay taxes and can't fix potholes or fund their schools.
@@davidbandler I would assume it has more to do with the weather and elevation changes in Colorado that wreak havoc on the roads. Higher taxes doesn’t necessarily equate to better quality services - come to California to see your tax dollars completely wasted and squandered by corruption
@@yeboscrebo4451 Missouri is another good example of people who don't pay taxes and horrible roads, unaccredited school districts, and high crime. Kansas has the same climate-induced road problems as Colorado, the frost-freeze cycle, the destruction from road salts & plowing, etc. The difference is (you'll see this if you drive I-70 through both states), is that Kansas is always repaving I-70 (and other paved roads.) Taxes = maintenance and repairs.
@@davidbandler California is an example of high taxes and horrible roads. Kansas does not have the same climate induced road problems as Colorado, the same elevation changes, or the same freeze cycles - not even close. Colorado and Kansas have wildly different rainfall, snowfall and freezing averages. And again, taxes does not always equal maintenance and repairs. Sometimes taxes equals misappropriated wastefulness, collectivist schemes and corruption. Ever heard of the Grace commission? You’d be shocked to find out what some taxes are actually allotted for.
I’ve lived in KS my whole life. Always enjoy your videos traveling through America’s small rural towns and really hoped one day you’d make it through western Kansas where I’m originally from! I’ve been to all these town many times, so cool to see this video! Thanks Adam!
When you said water "tater" (15:07), I nearly spewed the mouthful of water I had just sipped. I like it. I think I will be refering to water towers as water taters henceforth and without explanation. Just letting people believe that I think they're called that. :)
You pronounced Dighton correctly. That's my dad's hometown, that was where he had his 1st teaching job, so I lived there a yr. Just west of Dighton is a sm place, not really a town, but it's on the map it's AMY, KS. My dad was born there. His grandfather, who was in the Civil War, homesteaded that area and was a successful wheat farmer. He actually proved up his claim, which only 40% of the Homesteaders did. Amy was named after my dad's aunt. It's a small place on the map. but, I am proud of it as it is my family's heritage. How many American families has their own personal little dot on the map that is there because of the significance of their own family? I display wheat in my house in remembrance of my great-grandfather James Richard Bruner.
Estelle, my dad was also from Dighton so I'm quite familiar with it (at least up til 10-15 years ago, as I don't get out there as often as when I was a child -- fond memories!). My great-grandparents had a farm 4 miles south of town, where my grandparents also lived and my dad and his 3 sisters and brother were born. His brother (my uncle) took over the farm when Grandpa "retired" from it and he (Grandpa) and my grandmother moved into town. Today my uncle's grandson still lives on and runs the farm. I love that it's still in the family through all these generations. Oh... and I do know of Amy! Drove through it a few times years ago, probably in the '60s.
@@robinandjenithhoover2927 I was born in Goessel, when my dad was going to college. His 1st teaching job was Dighton, then we moved to CO for a yr, them we moved to CA where I was raised. But I am proud of Amy as it's my ancestral home. It was named after my grandma's sister. Our family homestead was in the family as far as 30 yrs. ago, but, am not sure now. Our families had to have know each other. My maiden name is Smith. They have been in that area over 150 yrs.
You're very fortunate to experience such an amazing and beautiful place. I've never had a bad time in Kansas. A lot of horses and haaay. Thanks for the video
These small town videos that you do are the best. I especially love the crackling sound of the tires as you slowly drive through these towns. Adds to the ambiance.
A third day in the Sunflower State. A Kansas trifecta! I raise my piping hot caffeinated beverage and salute you. Nice that you give a shout out to the local coffee places you stop into.
We have a local park with OLD playground equipment. A very, very high all metal slide....the kind you could get second degree burns off....those were the days!!!
One thing I learned from my car sales days, heh, is that a fuel light means you have about 10 percent or at least a gallon left in your tank. So if you know your car's mpg you have a general idea of how many miles you have left to get to the nearest gas station. Also I just LOVE following along on Adam's road trips with a map! Casa Bonita to the north or Cumbres & Toltec to the south? TOMORROW! SAME WOO TIME! SAME WOO CHANNEL! :)
I love the small town drive through videos! It’s just sad to see the buildings no longer in use and falling into disrepair. I live in Colorado, so I can’t wait for the upcoming videos!!!
Thank goodness for amazing locals ! I have ran out of gas before and it sucks badly...thank goodness I didn't have to go far 😮 Have a safe journey as you are winging it on your trip...wish I were traveling ...been rough lately here and really need something to look forward to soon...just packing a suitcase to go somewhere gets me super happy no matter where I am going ..but I just need some joy and enjoyment and relaxation away from daily troubles
We used to live in that exact area for about a year. It was like living in the twilight zone. 80 miles to Wal Mart, the wind was always blowing, and you can see storms in Oklahoma that may never make it to you.
The Merry-Go-Round you highlighted was built by my grandfather Benjamin LaMar and his brother Husky. They had cabinets full of orders when they were forced to shut down as steel was needed for the WWII supply efforts. Lamar & Company produced the Karymor Merry-Go-Round and other playground equipment. I have a large Merry-Go-Round and there is a smaller one at my mother's house down the.m street in Bloomington, Nebraska. cousin has one in Moscow, Idaho. You can find them all over Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado and New Mexico. ❤
So jealous. I live on a dinky island in the UK, only been out of the country once in my entire life. That was 30 years ago. I would love to visit the US 😔. Always liked the look of Colorado.
If you ever get the chance---visit Colorado. It's a beautiful state. We live in Texas these days--and have vacationed in Colorado several times. It's only one of several Western states with gorgeous mountain ranges though. The Grand Tetons in Wyoming will take your breath away. Do you live on the Isle of Man---or Skye? Or something much smaller? There is beauty to be found there too!
@@dragonfly9209 That sounds lovely. I live along the Thames Estuary, 1 hour train journey from London. There’s beauty here too but I don’t travel. I’ve never even been to Scotland. I always wanted to visit America. Small towns appeal to me. I’d like to visit Colorado, New Orleans, Salam, to name a few places.
In 1965, when I was 15 years old, my Dad, mom, younger sister and I were on vacation going from Fresno, California to the Springfield, MO area to visit relatives. We went the Northern route through Colorada then Kansas. We left Denver late at night and must have gone on that same route you just did. Drove for a long time without seeing another vehicle or noticing in towns except one. It was dark.
I drove through Kansas a few weeks ago, basically from Kansas City to Dodge City before crossing the Oklahoma panhandle on my way to New Mexico. The eastern two-thirds of the state are rolling hills, but the western one-third is flat as can be. You always know when another town is coming up as every town has its own set of silos which you can see from miles away. Urban boundry was a term I spotted as well. Where I come from, we call that city limit.
Thanks Adam Just found this for the lst time. Grew up in a samll town in Kansas, your video sure brought back memories. Left there as soon as I hit 18. LOL
Your low keyed way of speaking, your wanderlust and interest in things that we would pass right by is outstanding. I'm homebound right now and you make smile every day.❤
I had one of my most memorable road-trip experiences in the small town of Goodland!! Long story, but it ended with me watching the most amazing thunder and lightning storm across the Kansas plains.
A nice slice of Americana today, Adam! Also, your video makes me realize this is the main reason I won't be switching to an electric car anytime soon or ever. Could you imagine if you were in a Tesla or something in those backroads? I'm pretty sure there is not a supercharger for miles upon miles.
My home state!! When you mentioned Pueblo, my home town, I gotta little choked up.. Lots to do and see those neck of the woods. Have a wonderful time!!
Greetings from America. You come from the Land down under, where women glow and men plunder 🎶🎵 I'm very fond of Australian bands, the didgeridoo,and wildlife, especially Dingo dogs even with the bad reputation 😊.
Love the videos Adam! Every time I see your back roads/small towns videos, it makes me want to explore my state's back roads/small towns as well. So much to see, so little time.
Dude I used to watch you when I was early teens I’ve just remembered your chancel “AdamTheWoo” & found this channel it’s good to see your doing well still subscribed 👍
Love your videos, Adam. Never been to America but am in love with American small towns, through movies like Sweet Home Alabama. There’s a calm about these towns and a sense of melancholy too. Sad to see them so sparse!
Adam I was raised in Denver and Colorado has a lot of small cool towns. Ouray. Idaho springs evergreen glenwood springs etc. that have a bunch of history associated it with them Would love if you saw some of them
Thank goodness for the friendly local. The road was hypnotizing you. You forgot about gas in your car. Lol. Which happens on those backroads in the middle of nowhere. At least with me they do. Get totally relaxed and just thinking 🤔 Forget about a lot of things.
When you come to Detroit, you should try to go to the Henry Ford Village on a weekend day-there is a whole league of historic baseball teams who play every Saturday and Sunday afternoon. The museum is great too, as is the village. Henry ford collected historic buildings and moved them to Dearborn.
Man, you were 12 miles east from me when busting Grinnell ( pronounced Grin-ell) I was surprised when all of a sudden ,when I started the video, I see buildings I recognized! LOL. Hope you have a great trip!!
OMGosh!! Thank you for traveling through our home! Gove, Grinnell (Grin - el), & Levant (Lu - v - ant), Brewster are such wonderful gems!! It is so exciting seeing more people getting off the interstate & enjoying our beautiful area of the state!
I hope your mom and dad are ok in Florida, the weather there hasn't been so good lately. I've enjoyed seeing them in your videos and they feel like family.❤ I pray all is well, God Bless.
For me Vega Texas Water Pump finely gave out. Also got pulled over in Vega, TX going 71. Had to follow the cop to face the Judge and pay a $19.00 fine.
Hey Adam, can you find a thing called a human being that is actually outdoors, either in main street, a park, or outside some kind of industrial area. Not only you, but the other vloggers just drive through dead and deserted towns. I think in all the hours I have spent watching these vlogs, have seen maybe three people and that not an exaggeration. Love your work though!
Thanks Adam! It's always great to watch your content. I had time this morning to follow along using Google Maps and I really enjoyed it. Can't wait for your next upload. Safe travels!
Great to see these. When I travel, going snowboarding, hiking, or on a work trip, I always seek out these types of places. When your gas light was on, I had that same experience. As my notification came on, I saw the miles to complete empty go down and down. Once we zero, fortunately, the car kept going and I was able to get to a gas station, similar to your experience out in the middle of nowhere and would have paid whatever for gas. That tower was interesting, it actually looked like it read "See Six States". Thanks for sharing. Enjoy!
For you, a roadside assistance package would be a good investment. I know Allstate Roadside also covers rental cars. When you need help, farmers are a safe bet. They tend to be friendly and have extra gas on hand.
A magnificent tower that offered stunning views all the way to Pikes Peak. From here, Ripley's Believe it or Not reported in 1933, you could see six states.
another fun road trip vlog, I'm enjoying Will and Dawn's road trip to Michigan as well, you all take us places we otherwise might not see, thanks for sharing
Hello Adam. Another great video! The merry-go-round you saw, my uncle had one that he tied up his horses to for exercise. Awesome, seeing the old farm equipment. 🚜 Have a good day and safe travels to your next destination.
Enjoy your time in Colorado! I'll be there next month. I always worry driving across the country with tornado's. Ran into a few in Sterling Colorado and Chamberlain SD, and I've been nervous about the weather and driving ever since. Stay safe out there!
Adam i love your adventure videos we get to see places and things we didn’t know existed andmay never see and towns we’ve never heard of before. Great exploration video 👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for letting us join you on your adventures through Kansas & now my birthday state, Colorful Colorado. I'm glad that card station was there. You definitely would have been hoofing it. Haven't heard that one in quite some time. Safe travels to our next adventure. God is your pilot ❤🙏
Imagine, if you will, the days when the town's young'ns would gather there. The big kids and the little kids. The little kids would sit on the boards and the big kids would spin the thing around. The little kids holding on for dear life, screaming "waaaiiit! Not so faaaast! I can't hold on! AAAHHH" As little Patty loses her grip and gets FLUNG 40 feet away into a fresh steaming pile of cow dung. Carnage everywhere. Kids screaming and laughing. Patty pulls herself up from the cow dung and instantly earns the nickname Cow Patty (Jim Stafford reference there).
The videos remind me of our country's boom era after WW2. The USA exploded with economic growth after the war, peaked then went into a decline due to it's exorbitant growth and constant turnover of improvements, inventions precipitating wealth, prosperity, population shift and leaving behind the old for the new. It leaves you lamenting what was, the history and the thousands of people that moved on and out. The ghost towns were bustling, busy centers of human activity, commerce and trade and sustained these pocket towns until eventually big corporations bought out, consolidated and sadly, necessarily, created the collapse these old past wonderful towns of Americana. Sometimes progress is appearing cruel, and many people today don't even bother to stop and read the erected plaques, brass plates attached to bridges, or the lonely community designated markers noting of an antiquity past. People lived their entire lives here and there. Raised families, shared birthdays and holidays and celebrated their quaint towns with decorations and even parades, picnics and county fairs. Everything happens in the blink of an eye in 2023 and I suppose some said that when Henry Ford rolled out the Model T's back in the day. Life happens too fast for some and for others not quick enough and that's evolution. So, I'll keep checking in to TheDailyWoo from time to time and be escorted again through your bitter sweet travels of a remarkable past.
Nice to see you in western Kansas! You're very close to the Kansas Monument Rocks, check them out if you can! Also, just know if you ever have car trouble in that area, 9/10 times a nice farmer or local will stop to help you out. Safe Travels!
Adam, really enjoyed your awesome small towns video! Wish you'd come through Milburn Oklahoma a small town! Thank you for taking me along with you on your travels! Looking forward to your next vlog. YOU ROCK!!!!!
lived in Wichita for three and half years, Kansas is interesting to say the least lol, you really can watch your dog run away for three days with how flat it is

There are quite a few of us who feel this way... 🤠👏🛣

@@CarlessSarah YES🤗
I didn't happen to notice a lot of homeless people and camps What is the deal Looks like there is plenty of room for them next to that feed lot

Water towers reduce the amount municipal water pumps need to run. The tower is filled and gravity provides pressure.

It seems that way due to the towns he has gone through thus far.

10:30. Back in the early 1980's my Uncle Pete opened a Surfing / SCUBA Shop in Downtown Gove, Kansas. It never took off the way he had hoped.
I lived in Kansas almost 20 years, Western Kansas grows on a person. The wide open spaces, clean towns, and friendly people make the region great.
Love your videos Adam, thank you for sharing.
In the 90's we had one of these types of Merry-Go-Rounds. Miss those times
Thx Adam, I love the backroad vlogs
This reminded me of the movie Children of the corn I was waiting for children to walk out of the building's 😂
Adam, I love your tours of these off the beaten path places, you tell a great story with your camera, thank you!
You said dighton correctly i been in the area 30 years ✌️💯👍
Thanks Adam! It's always great to watch your content. I had time this morning to follow along using Google Maps and I really enjoyed it. Can't wait for your next upload. Safe travels!
Love these small town videos! ❤
hello Adam , great video again , Ahhh the open road and the woo what else do we need lol , really well done and thank you as always 😊
Great to see these. When I travel, going snowboarding, hiking, or on a work trip, I always seek out these types of places. When your gas light was on, I had that same experience. As my notification came on, I saw the miles to complete empty go down and down. Once we zero, fortunately, the car kept going and I was able to get to a gas station, similar to your experience out in the middle of nowhere and would have paid whatever for gas. That tower was interesting, it actually looked like it read "See Six States". Thanks for sharing. Enjoy!
For you, a roadside assistance package would be a good investment. I know Allstate Roadside also covers rental cars. When you need help, farmers are a safe bet. They tend to be friendly and have extra gas on hand.
A magnificent tower that offered stunning views all the way to Pikes Peak. From here, Ripley's Believe it or Not reported in 1933, you could see six states.
another fun road trip vlog, I'm enjoying Will and Dawn's road trip to Michigan as well, you all take us places we otherwise might not see, thanks for sharing
Love the way you find these little out of the way places Adam, pretty cool. 😎👌👍
Rolling near my running zone. I routinely drive loaded milk tankers up 287 passing through Eads and Lamar!!!
Hello Adam. Another great video! The merry-go-round you saw, my uncle had one that he tied up his horses to for exercise. Awesome, seeing the old farm equipment. 🚜 Have a good day and safe travels to your next destination.
Thank you that was great
We saw so much yet so little. Stay safe
I like when those old clocks ARE working, some city's care.
It’s sad to see these old small towns abandoned because of the way we build cities nowadays, everything is sprawled out due to suburbia.
Enjoy your time in Colorado! I'll be there next month. I always worry driving across the country with tornado's. Ran into a few in Sterling Colorado and Chamberlain SD, and I've been nervous about the weather and driving ever since. Stay safe out there!
We drive through Colorado and Kansas but never stop and sitesee. Thank you for your videos. 😊❤
Thank you Adam!!
Lamar..hometown of Ken Curtis, Festus Gunsmoke..his father was Sheriff .⭐️
Adam i love your adventure videos we get to see places and things we didn’t know existed andmay never see and towns we’ve never heard of before. Great exploration video 👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Stay safe and be careful. Enjoy your trip. God bless
Thank you for letting us join you on your adventures through Kansas & now my birthday state, Colorful Colorado. I'm glad that card station was there. You definitely would have been hoofing it. Haven't heard that one in quite some time. Safe travels to our next adventure. God is your pilot ❤🙏
Nice Vader T Shirt - You Got There! 😎👍👌
Kansas state is Much Like Saskatchewan up Here in Canada.🍁🤔 Miles and Miles! Of Miles And Miles!!😲😊😅😂🖐🖖🍁
Thats a cool merry go round! How serendipitous that it was made in your destination - love when that happens
Imagine, if you will, the days when the town's young'ns would gather there. The big kids and the little kids. The little kids would sit on the boards and the big kids would spin the thing around. The little kids holding on for dear life, screaming "waaaiiit! Not so faaaast! I can't hold on! AAAHHH" As little Patty loses her grip and gets FLUNG 40 feet away into a fresh steaming pile of cow dung. Carnage everywhere. Kids screaming and laughing. Patty pulls herself up from the cow dung and instantly earns the nickname Cow Patty (Jim Stafford reference there).
The videos remind me of our country's boom era after WW2. The USA exploded with economic growth after the war, peaked then went into a decline due to it's exorbitant growth and constant turnover of improvements, inventions precipitating wealth, prosperity, population shift and leaving behind the old for the new. It leaves you lamenting what was, the history and the thousands of people that moved on and out. The ghost towns were bustling, busy centers of human activity, commerce and trade and sustained these pocket towns until eventually big corporations bought out, consolidated and sadly, necessarily, created the collapse these old past wonderful towns of Americana. Sometimes progress is appearing cruel, and many people today don't even bother to stop and read the erected plaques, brass plates attached to bridges, or the lonely community designated markers noting of an antiquity past. People lived their entire lives here and there. Raised families, shared birthdays and holidays and celebrated their quaint towns with decorations and even parades, picnics and county fairs. Everything happens in the blink of an eye in 2023 and I suppose some said that when Henry Ford rolled out the Model T's back in the day. Life happens too fast for some and for others not quick enough and that's evolution. So, I'll keep checking in to TheDailyWoo from time to time and be escorted again through your bitter sweet travels of a remarkable past.
Nice to see you in western Kansas! You're very close to the Kansas Monument Rocks, check them out if you can! Also, just know if you ever have car trouble in that area, 9/10 times a nice farmer or local will stop to help you out. Safe Travels!
Theirs some hidden gems in Kansas. Scott City and Scott state park is a great stop.
Adam, really enjoyed your awesome small towns video! Wish you'd come through Milburn Oklahoma a small town! Thank you for taking me along with you on your travels! Looking forward to your next vlog. YOU ROCK!!!!!
I love going with you on these trips
Finally a train in Kanorado 🚅 Kansas was interesting, enjoy Colorado Adam.
lived in Wichita for three and half years, Kansas is interesting to say the least lol, you really can watch your dog run away for three days with how flat it is
