    Keep doing what you do Adam because you are truly great at it. Sending you love and hugs .

  • @GregsVlog
    @GregsVlog 7 лет назад +9

    You are exactly right. Your life is always in a different place when you re-watch a movie, so it may not have the same meaning it once did or it may have a totally different meaning. This is why I re-watch movies occasionally because sometimes I see things that I would never have understood before.

    Nice tribute to Mr. Calvin, done with the utmost respect. Jacob posted a touching tribute yesterday as well. It is funny how certain places, movies, or songs make you miss a certain past time in your life and get you all emotional.
    Awesome vlog as always, continue on that circle of goodness, keep creating happiness wherever you are, do what makes you happy, as we continue to learn daily, life is indeed way too short.

  • @beauty-quark
    @beauty-quark 7 лет назад +4

    Adam I know its a ways away, but if you make it down to Corpus Christi, there's a mall (Sunrise Mall) that was used in the filming of the 80's movie "the Legend of Billie Jean" and it's practically exactly the same as it looked when the movie was filmed. It's creepy and dead, but I thought it might be a good place to to shoot some of filming locations from the movie

    Adam, you are correct that certain films viewed in our youth continue to resonate as we get older. I'm a geezer now but the hippie movement of the sixties and seventies lives on in a little corner of my mind. "Easy Rider" says it all for me. Plus "Blazing Saddles", of course!

I found your videos somehow yesterday by some shift in the space time continuum. after I have already watched about 50 videos since then and now, I must write to you. I LOVE your videos. all of them. and i watched suburbia on vhs when I was probably a freshman in high school. no one else I had ever met had watched that movie. you just found the top notch. my lifetime goals are being completed by your travels . Thank you.

    @MrJest2 7 лет назад

    Wow; what a shock to hear about Mr. Bilbo. Indeed, it all can just end at any moment... which is all the more reason to treasure and not waste the moments we have. Look at it this way - you and Jacob got to consume this gentleman's "art"; something he was apparently and justifiably proud of, according to the Gas Station FB page. Of course I have no idea if he watched any of the videos of Jacob and your "BBQ Tour", but I'm sure he'd have been tickled that you guys kept going back to compare to his cooking. Prayers to his family and friends out there.

    Those rest stops are kind of amazing. Was just there in December. As the story goes, several years ago, a terrible tornado hit along I-35 and there was no shelter for travelers. Since that tornado destroyed much of that area and the surrounding community, Texas added storm shelters to several of the rest stops along the way.
