    Bittersweet Jay. Loved the video my husband and I enjoy them all. This one though 😢 i was born & raised in "adamsville," which was about a mile or so past sage dental. I was 41 when i finally moved. When they built that massive city hall & the community/storm shelter,i knew the villages was coming. I'm a small town girl and glad i moved when i see it now 😢 the cow pastures we played football & baseball in are now houses 10ft apart ugh. I go back to visit my aunt who lives right across the road from your grandparents did. I showed her your video and she was just tickled because she knew them. Ty for making her day😊

    Always love these roadside attractions & abandoned places videos. You provide viewers with the opportunity to see areas that they ordinarily would not gravitate to. Unlike the more popular tourist spots that stand out whenever one visits a particular destination.

    One of these days, we're going to run into each other. We live in the Villages, where it all began in Spanish Springs, we joke that we live in the Prehistoric section of the Villages. Traveled 301 down to Dade City and Zephyrhills many a day. I love the Traditions Antique shop as well as the Wildwood Antique shop and the Russell Stover store. My grandfather retired to Florida before I was born and lived in Brooksville all the years that I knew him. I've traveled down there many times for 'ol time sake.

    We're in Eustis, not too far. Had a friend in Coleman years ago and went to visit him. Halfway decent and modern for a prison. We've traveled to Wildwood a lot because they have a Coney Island and it's a lot closer than Brooksville. We're getting one here in Eustis next week, so less trips to Wildwood, but what is left that isn't the Villages is a really nice town.

    Hello Tampa Jay!
    Childer's Grocery if I'm not mistaken on my research James Hubert Childer's was a big part of Winn Dixie. He retired as vice president and director of merchandising for Winn Dixie and passed in 2021.
    He was also chairman of the National frozen foods Association. I'm wondering if that coach has ties to him and his family or just a tribute by the family living there. Really cool, love these videos man! Keep them coming! 🙌

    Hello Tampa Jay. We are the owners at Coleman Crossing and I have to say you missed the best part (Our Historic Village). We have 5 buildings here from the 1800's, some cant be seen from the road. Oldest post office in FL (1876), Adamsville School house(1867), Coleman Train Depot(1895), Original Coleman Jail(1897), and of coarse the General Store(1895). Stop in sometime and take a tour.
