    I was born in Mayfield in 1958. I can remember when that place was packed on the weekend. There would have been cars filling that entire complex. The movies would pause for intermission about half way through and all the kids (including me) would sprint down to a playground complex located at the base of the screen while parents went for concessions. That was the golden years of mid America.

    Very cool that you came through my area and videoed a vlog. I live very close to the Cardinal drive In, and used to go there almost every weekend to watch movies on the big screen. I have been to the Apple Valley several times, the owner and family are super friendly. Hope you get the chance to check out Grand Rivers and the Land Between the Lakes Park while you are here.

    @Stygiandj 7 лет назад +28

    after some of the heavy somber tomes of some of the last few blogs. it was cool to have a fun jaunty trip on America's backroads again. I love this video Adam. I watch these as soon as they drop. also I know you're not into theft, but like the one Sega game you pulled out goes for $20 alone on eBay. and there were dozens of those just sitting there! crazy find! keep it up. it gets exhausting I'm sure but it's so worth it to all of us. take care and be safe!

    • @adamthewoo

    That drive-in has not ran i know over 15 to 20 years. the video store had two locations one in town and one at the drive-in i know the owner. I believe that he passed away a couple of years ago. We did manage to get some of the games and movies. the boxes of games that he showed were empty they had foam in them and resealed.

    Careful on those slides, remember what happened last time. You were actually at my old stomping grounds. I was actually born in Fulton, it was a big railroad town back in its heyday. I believe they have a small railroad museum in the city hall and history on the twin cities. Don't think much is left there anymore, not even a hospital. Happy Sunday, Safe Travels!

  • @mshelton99

  • @BoshiYoshi
    @BoshiYoshi 7 лет назад

    Woo! Adam's in my home state! That abandoned video store was INSANE! Those Genesis games there...man, it would be hard to resist the urge to take them. I can't believe no one has ever wandered in there and walked off with all of those VHS and video games. But now that I think about it, those may have all just been empty cases. I'm sure it's the same at most video stores, but at the one that used to be in my town, they had the empty cases on display and kept all of the movies/games in the back and rented them out to you in clear plastic cases. Though the cases are probably still desirable. Especially the game ones.
    Absolutely love the Hillbilly Hills place. What a fun bunch of people. I'm glad they got to stick it to the no-fun neighbors. That toyland building is like my dream place. All of those awesome old toys. He even had TWO of the Sherwood Forest playset! Kenner basically just took the old Ewok Village playset mold and re-purposed it into a playset for the Robin Hood figure series that came out later. Don't see it often and it's neater than the Ewok Village because it comes with plastic canopys for the trees.

    Adam, you should venture up to Michigan. All of your recent blogs would come together at a place called "The Henry Ford Museum". There is so much to see and do. As mentioned before all expenses paid if you come!
