Two tails ranch is a private sanctuary for "almost to the prink of extinction" Asian elephants (not African). They have one fundraising event when you can visit the elephants and the sanctuary. It's a great event to visit the elephants and these might be the last anyone can see as they are I think less than 100 on the planet.
thank you for letting us know
Love when you travel the back roads of Florida
Thanks so much much ahead
Hi! Archer resident here! Couple things i wanted to mention. The Maddox family no longer owns the foundry. In fact, our whole town has come in together to try and keep the new owner, Arnold Construction from building a cement batch plant there that will destroy our quiet little town. Also Los Avina is awesome! There is a new little place coming in where that yellow building across from it was. That little building in front of the city hall was in fact the first post office. The train depot was moved and that is not the original location, but the historical societ has done a great job of preserving it. These places are not abandoned or vacant. They are very much in use, except for building with broken glass. You missed a couple really awesome things in our little town, and i definitely think a quick google before you visit these places would help give the correct information and help reveal a few more hidden gems!
I’ll be back thank you
Thanks for taking us on ur travels! Know u are loved, too❤❤❤!!!

Hell yeah dude. Close to where I grew up. Thanks.
Epic content and thanks for covering these areas and doing these video's across the State!
Wow Florida looks so nice and beautiful
Another great roadside video, Jay.
Your appreciation of History is always wonderful.
“Those who don’t value the Past, will have a sad Future.”
We should always Honor the memory of those who came before us and we should appreciate their deeds and accomplishments.
Your understanding of this important concept is rare in this world today.
You are to be commended for your documenting of the Past and the buildings, structures, and relics of Bygone Times. I always enjoy your videos, I’m sure there are many more who enjoy them as much as I.
Safe travels, my friend, always look forward to new Adventures from you. 👋
They call it LeeVee County in Levy County! ☺️ I know the place well..
I liked what you had to say at the end. Words to inspire.
Gotta say this video rocks!
Love you're videos,😊 especially the old house's😊!! Be safe

Another awesome! video Jay thanks ! for sharing much ahead as always
Glad to hear thanks for coming with me again appreciate you
Thanks!!! Love these abandoned places!!! Love old history!!! So very cool!!! You’re awesome!!! 💕💕💕
It's awesome that you can explore like this. The blue Victorian home is gorgeous!
Omg, that old abandoned barn on the way down the road to Two Tails is my grandfather's old barn. My grandparents lived there for about 20 years before moving. They had horses and lots of cats at that barn. I remember playing in the hay. There's a huge pit behind the barn that we would slide down on feed bags.
That’s so cool. I’m so glad you caught the video. Thank you for watching and sharing.
🤣🤣🤣That dragon fly rattled your cage! Scary to think if it would have been a bee or hornet! I so enjoy your tours. Thank you for your time in filming. Maybe some of the buildings came down when Hurricanes passed through from one coast to the next - tornadoes and damaging winds. Others were most likely from age and too costly to try and repair - brick maybe dried out and crumbling. Sad to see them going down.
Wow.. love seeing these small towns. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely love these videos of Roadside attractions and Abandoned places!!! You always make them interesting. 😊
Thanks Jay for another great vid and all of the variety on these trips of exploring :) Keep it up
Thanks for showing us places that a lot of us have never been to and/or know about.
I love these rural Florida counties. Definitely more mysterious than the well-known beaches
Love this series always some hidden treasure somewhere ➡️
I love you abandoned places and movie location videos the most. I'm really liking your 1st of Florida videos you've been putting out lately, too.
Lovin it😊 Awesome video ❤❤❤
All those train stations start from Fernandina beach. Great old town! They have an old rail station here that they turned into a welcome center.
I'm a day late, catching up hon. I love your abandon places series. ❤ Thank you for sharing it.
Hugs 🤗 and God bless 🙏

Thanks my friend
Great video.
I got to say.
I'm 65 years old from citrus county. I never heard levy county pronounced LA-VEE. We pronounce it lee-vee.
Thank you for watching. instagram.com/tampajay
Jay, love these abandoned places small town back road type videos. Keep em coming my friend.
I like this stuff a bunch!
It is pronounced "Lee Vee"(Levy) county.
YES!!
I live in INGLIS
at the southern end of the county.
Thank you!!
Jay....I cannot pick my favorite type of your videos but this was amazing!
Wow, thanks my friend
I look forward to hearing you say those words for today's creature feature and hearing you tell us we are loved and that no matter what is going on there is much ahead and I understand what you mean by that now and you're right there is much ahead I look forward to us being there together brother 🧡 I love the music you put in this video I am from Kentucky we love that country music and bluegrass music and I am giving you two thumbs up👍🏻👍🏻 and two pink flamingos up 🦩🦩
Hey Jay! Another awesome roadside attraction video! So cool ❤! Keep them coming !
Thank you, Eugene
Good vid!
Levy is pronounced: Leevee.
No worries, being a Florida native, figured out we pronounce names just a bit different than the way the word is spelled.
It's pronounced: Tim-uck-you-an & It's Fern-an-deenah.
You always have good stuff TJ!
I live in denellen, Florida and not far from this area.I cannot tell you how depressing it is
Love this video tampa jay and I love it when you say for today's creature feature.
That mighty oak is majestic! Quintessentially southern looking, definitely. When can we look forward to the official 100k celebration video, Jay? 😊
Levy County is pronounced Leevee. Long es. And the little brown building in Raleigh was our polling place.
If you go to Farmer's Market at Archer Depot on Tuesdays you could learn a lot of local history.
Jay, keep showing the real Florida! Florida, is not Miami, Orlando and tourist traps. Keep showing the real Florida that I75,I95, and the Turnpike bypass.
You should do Florida in the winter and northern places in the summer. I heard you mention Otter Creek. Lots of drama been going on in that town the past couple of years.
The house with the wall in archer is constructed with ROUND rooms. Yes. All of the rooms are round .
Wow that’s amazing
It’s so amazing and I like this wow wow Tampa Jay it awesome buddy my name is craig king from wales in Pembrokeshire south west wales 🏴
Hello there my friend from Wales! Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate you
Thanks to your videos I don’t even have to leave my house anymore 😂I’ve been living in Tampa bay for 5 years now and haven’t been anywhere but the other major cities minus key west I’ve been to Orlando Jacksonville Daytona space coast Miami palm beach gulf shores st.Pete Jupiter beach I enjoy the scenery in the north east and north west it’s rather flat here like Texas but many awesome beaches and places to visit
Thanks awesome place I enjoyed watching
Glad to hear thank you
Nice old buildings
Dude I'm loving these videos
Thanks glad to hear!
I'm sorry but I just wanted to let you know it's pronounced "lee-vee" county. I've lived in Florida over 50 years and in that general area within 50 miles! 😊 I do remember some of these places that you're going to some of them I don't. It's fun to watch your videos and see the history of Florida.
Love ❤️ all your videos you do Tampa Jay ❤❤❤
Thank you
All about Elephants in Williston. I visited this place two years ago. Learned a lot about Elephants, at the time, they had Asian Elephants. Since Elephants are considered wild animals, the facility has to keep them pretty well contained and don't allow people to just wander onto the property. You may want to go on a tour, so call the number to see when they have the tours. It was $20 a person and all proceeds go to the care of the animals.
That’s pretty awesome. It sounds like a great experience. Thanks for letting me know. Thank you for watching.
I may look into that I love elephants I have always wanted to play with a baby elephant 🫶🏽🙏🏾
@@nessajenean8705 They have Elephant Appreciation Day in September every year.
That was the fire dept next to the Archer school gym, volunteer fd, only a few truck bays
Hi Tampa Jay thank you so much yes I am having a great evening its Thursday evening over here 20:43 in Nottingham hope both you and Chris the girl are also having a great evening too 😀 😊 ☺️ 😄
Hello there! Thank you happy evening
🎃🦋🎃 Hi, Jay!! Heard you guys are getting a TON of rain! Be safe and thank you for another great Abandoned Florida vid. My favorite! ❤
I am a new subscriber after watching you on Adam the Woos channel. You and Adam have made me a Rays fan. Keep up the good work. Enjoyed this video because this is my stomping grounds. I live in the city of Alachua just outside Gainesville. Interesting fact about Archer. All the homes there are on septic tanks. There is no sewer service.
Tampa Jay are you Adam the Woo little brother 😮
I remember when 90% of Florida looked like this . Now its down to perhaps 20% . But not to worry . The Wealthy Developer's already have their eyes on the rest . So enjoy what's left of the old Florida before it to becomes just another Housing Development or Apartment complex .
Enjoy your video. Looks like storage building.
Thank you
Good stuff!
Just fyi: The locals pronounce Levy as “Lee-Vee”. ❤
Enjoyed the video Jay!!!
Thank you !
The Giant Barn next to the Park. Is actually a Peanut storage Building. The Wagons all in a row. Are how the Peanuts get from the Field to the Mill.
Jay this is good stuff but I must correct your pronunciation of Levy county. Locals in North Central FL call it Lee-Vee county.
Keep up the great content!
Love your travel videos Jay. Adam The Woo was doing a lot of videos like this once but he seems to be too Disney obsessed these days.
Afternoon Jay!!
Afternoon Lee
cool
I'm thinking "Two Tails"?? Lol, Zwo Zails😂
It definitely looks like a Z haha
A little TOO stylized lol
@@eric_in_florida reminds me of the Wizard of Oz font
They have Elephant Appreciation Day in September every year.

If anyone knows any abandoned places in Raleigh I've love to know. I've never been able to find a single solitary desolate spot anywhere. Can be 6am, 1am, 11pm, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.. doesn't matter. I've yet to find anything close to an entire large parking lot worth of land where there is no one around. It seems impossible in Raleigh. Too many people who are always up to something.
Awesome new creepy intro music 🙌🏻
Hi Tampa Jay!!!
@Tampa Jay good video man. You was not to far from me.
I’m headed up that way for a video road trip next month.
I live about a mile away from the place
😮Did you check out Yankeetown, Crackertown & Inglis in Levy county?
Yankeetown's claim to fame, Elvis Presley movie "Follow that Dream"
I’ve done an entire video on Follow That Dream check it out
I can’t help laughing - sorry - when you say a church is “old”. My local church is 600 years older. But thanks for the videos. I enjoy seeing different parts of the world.
Archer is 9 miles east of Otter creek
I have a place off of 336, nearest living neighbors are 3.5 miles away
I’m an hour away from there 😊
...it's pronounced leave E county , not lev E county, and I left Archer as a kid in the late 80S the factory was closed down then, they , may have re opened for a bit , but I don't remember 100 % I know for sure it was closed when i lived there
Hi TJ. Did you know that Charles H Morse from Fairbanks Morse engines is a distant relative to Samuel Morse?
Hey Tampa Jay!
Howdy there!
Sam Morse who invented Morse code. You showed the engine in Williston from the Fairbanks Morse company
there's literally fans running and ac units in the window of the first place someone is living there 100%
O wow
Otter Creek has a little over a hundred people living there.
And two sasquatch .
FUR-NAN-DEENA is how you pronounce it.
Duly noted thank you
Barber shop if I remember correctly
WOW...i saw the thumb nail, and knew you were in Levy county, a very historic county, and Old Florida gold mine, if you just look for it. I graduated from Bronson High school, out in Levy county should hit that up, Bo Didley's grave is located in our local grave yard. if your interested. Adam has been through Williston a few years back as well. he got to see the old High school before they tore it down. thanks again for coming out and show casing our area. seeing things i normally do not see as i pass by those very places that you featured. also there is a cafe with PINK FLAAAAMMIIIIINGGGOOO theming in High Springs!
Love Adams videos or at least the non Disney ones. These days his videos involve Disney more than anything. I like what Jay is doing plus the occasional team up trips with Chris the Girl add to these videos.
Are you related to Adam the Woo?
You would think so, right? Living on the Edge! 👺💀
The Florida from yesteryear is far more entertaining than the crap on I4
hello Tampa Jay have you gone to the zoo?If not can you go and video it? I love your videos. Good work. Drink plenty of water 💧.
How are you liking the Subaru,?? Hopefully alot.
Loving it! So far, the best car I’ve ever owned. I’ve driven Toyotas, Chevy, Ford, VW, and Honda.
