    I am binging all your vlogs. I am from Chicago, now in Ohio, watching your Lincoln tour and I am amazed by you. I love the fact you showed so much respect as the last time I was there.....well, parents let their children behave as if it were Disney Land. you are now my favorite! your passion is wonderful.

    It is wonderful to hear somebody talk of Mr. Lincoln with affection. As you said, there is too much running down of our heritage these days.
    I do not want this trip to end.

    Justin,
    You have a great talent! It amazes me that for someone of your age you know so much and have so much reverence and respect for things that matter most.
    Excelsior! We could very well see this kind of talent on television.

    This is my favorite video I've ever seen from you Justin. Abe is up there with Walt for people who amaze/inspire me. The Battle Hymn of the Republic gave me goosebumps at the end. Great work as always!

All that being said, I just wanted to let you know how well of a job you did with this video. All class. Well done.

    I just saw your WigWam hotel show while sitting in the hotel in Springfield IL. We went to the house, the museum and tomb. This is brilliant, you are giving us more that we did not have time to see, and more information and stories we did not get. Kids wuld love your presentation n school as well. You belong on PBS.

    Go to DC! They have Lincolns hat and coat on display before you enter Ford's Theater. Come to Detroit! At the Henry Ford Museum we have the original chair Lincoln was shot in. I've spent my whole life traveling in the footsteps of Lincoln. He's my hero and this video means a lot to me!

    @HappyHauntsMaterialize 7 лет назад

    This has to be my favorite video of yours Justin. I love Disney, Lincoln is literally the only other thing that makes me excited other than Disney history. That moment of silence. Wow, just incredible. Did you know Abraham Lincoln was named after his grandfather who too was killed? Yup. His grandfather on his Father's (whom Lincoln had a strained relationship with, strained as in, didn't go to his funeral strained) side was killed by Indians. Reportedly with young Thomas (Lincoln's dad) nearby.

    So exciting that you've made it this far on your journey. These videos are definitely the coolest way to learn about Route 66 history! Also, I happened to be biking around Griffith Park yesterday and noticed the Carolwood Barn was open. I went to check it out and ran into Bob Gurr, Floyd Norman, and Margaret Kerry there! I just moved to California and it's awesome to get to see some of the places you've seen and people you've met on your adventures!

    Justin, just when I was ready to rid myself of your silliness you pull off one of the most epic demonstration of video recording and editing I've seen. I have learned so much about Lincoln from this video. Good Job....don't tell ADW I said anything will ya? He is back in town with a whole new outlook on life. (of course he said the same thing when he left the OC). Keep-up the good work...btw: I was right behind you (1-day) on 66 and turned around at the Road-Kill Café..my dad just wanted a copy of their menu . Safe travels in Chi-town, And I think the Mickey Dees at the end of 66 has a real hot-rod inside the place. Its been a few years so not 100% its still there.
