    Happy Veterans Day! I go long winded a ton in this one- just felt right. The next one won’t be that way. I appreciate you watching and hats off to those veterans watching!

    I really enjoyed this. In the late 1980's I would accompany my husband on business trips to that area and it was nice seeing familiar sights. Later on we went down to Jetty Park and camped. My husband says that the best chilidog he ever ate was at Arbetters on Merritt Island. Next time you are in that area, check it out. I would like to see you travel all the way up the coast on A1A. It holds a lot of memories for me.

    Loved seeing some of my old stomping ground! Ron Jon surf shop used to be a hole in the wall where I'd buy my Zogs wax before heading out. Eau Gallie - "o" "gal" "lee". Thank you for sharing and thank you to all our vets!

  • @CristheGirl
    @CristheGirl 2 года назад +6

    Me! I want to see every angle of the abandoned pizza hut! I always pronounced Eau Gallie, Oh-Gally, but I'm not sure if that is correct either haha! I used to take percussion lessons over there! This was a great video Jay, I really enjoyed seeing my old backyard and all the weird stuff we used to drive by when I was a kid! And your "long-winded" vlogs are the best, I hope the next one is the same too ;) Great job again, and thank you for all that you do!

    • @Erin-nc7wy

      See! I was way off with my pronunciation. I knew it ha ha. Thank you so much Cristina! Your old stomping ground is awesome, I really enjoyed exploring it and look forward to going back someday. Appreciate your kinds words, thanks for being awesome.

    • @CristheGirl
      @CristheGirl 2 года назад +1

      @@TampaJay it’s a tricky one for sure! I pronounced it very wrong for the longest time and again, still not sure I’m even saying it right now haha! I look forward to going back too! I hope you know you’re awesome and know you’re loved! ❤️

    No need to thank us, Jay. You're one of the "good guys". Not enough good guys these days. You will always have someone to watch your videos! What a beautiful morning on the Atlantic! You appear to be a wise man, Jay. Can you tell us why the Conquistadors wore those tutu's? I always wondered. I love that Ace hardware! Retro goodness! Bikini road! 🤣😂Thanks Jay, for sharing your day. Good stuff! You always make me laugh!

    i thought that surfer statue looked familiar , i watched a Barbara Eden on I dream of Jeannie she was showing that t surfer statue with Cocoa Beach obviously it was probably more filming Warner Brothers but I always wondered if there was a real actual home in Cocoa Beach where I dream of Jeannie was filmed. i agree i like I dream of Jeannie over bewitch for one is because I liked all the actors in like doctor bills bill his name was real name obviously larry that played Tony

    Great video! There’s a park near me with a big twisted beam from the World Trade Center - in Bixby, a suburb of Tulsa, OK. It’s Washington Irving Memorial Park, on the bank of the Arkansas River. Did you know the author of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle traveled through Oklahoma and wrote about it in 1832?
    The park is also famous for mountain lion sightings, and dear to me for an otter I spotted on the bank and in the river. (I’m still looking for the mountain lion.)
    Jaysun, when I first saw your video was about Ponce de Leon, I thought you were in Ponce de Leon, FL at the state park about 6½ hours west of where you were! My daughter took us swimming there when I visited her in Pensacola in August. I need to read about it - see how far inland Ponce de Leon went.
