you both make me giggle when you talk about how old that Stuff is ,, and I can Remember Using most of it When I was a Kid and on up too my Teens LOL.. I never know 44 Was old LOL
Moon and Son Slime Lol! Now I know how the adults felt when I said things like that about the early fifties. That bottle of BRUT by Faberge was a big deal in the 80's And the kids think it's ancient. Thanks I Don't feel so alone. Oh I am 56yrs old. Lol😎
Back when we were kids 30 was old, Now we're the ones on the "old" side lol I am so laughing at their enthusiasm of all the "old" stuff lol it is pretty cool stuff! And Bekah you need to get that boy some beano for YOUR own protection LOL
@@nancyM1313 56 here as well. Brute was very popular in the late 70's early 80's. I remember buying some of that and High Karate as Christmas gifts in 79 lol awesome find there you two!
Nancy Maschio I’m glad you saw and heard what I did...lol! I felt ancient listening to their comments, but it made me laugh too. I once told my mother an old lady held me up, she asked me, “How old do you think she was?”. I replied: “ In her 50’s.”. She said: “ My dear how old are you.”. I started laughing out loud because I had to answer my darling mother and say “49”! We both had a good laugh over that....Wait until Rick and Bekka are in their 40’s and their kids think that’s old!!! 🤣
My great grand mother's house was like this. My uncles all went to war. They all lived there one time or another. It fell to ruin after she died. They all lived with other family members in their old age. Actually I visited when it had been abandoned the old smiley face clock behind the wood cooking stove ticked and hummed for a few seconds. No electricity and no batteries. The house is so similar it blows my mind. Maybe it had the same story. I love this. I can see her now in the kitchen making biscuits. So cool.
Okay young ones I don't think you realize what you have stumbled across this particular house is called a shotgun house used back during the Depression for housing workers with low income this particular house was built in the late 1900s the furniture wa 1950s the wood stoves from 1911 to 1950 judging from your video this particular shotgun house looks and appears like it was moved from one spot to another a very rare and awesome timepiece guys I do believe at one point that it was probably used for some storage back in around 2000 judging for where everything was placed probably was stop being used as early is the 1980s judging from the Decay and where and rot that I seen in the video also young once it would be into your best interest if you are going to venture into a particular place like this one to wear a mask because back then they use things like lead paint and asbestos that you guys really don't need to be breathing in while you are exploring just a suggestion.. awesome video
John Rodgers I really think Stacy was really trying to be nice and provide some additional info on this type/style of home. Also, giving friendly advice so as they don’t inhale lead paint particles or asbestos is, once again, just trying to be nice.
jonny bolt when the paint was new and not chipping and flaming off, it wasn’t as big of a problem. No matter what, breathing in old dust and crap in old buildings can’t be good for anyone.
Aha! Another historian of the old ways. :) I was thinking the wood cook stove was closer to 1900 because of the colour and the ornate side supports of the warming ovens. That coal/wood stove cost a pretty penny in it's day, almost equal to what it would cost to buy it now I would think.
Been watching y'alls vids for several weeks now. You never curse or act like fools and you respect peoples things. Bekah does a great job of filming and always sounds calm and collected. very enjoyable.
Finally someone who uses GLOVES and has a STEADY HAND🙏🙏🙏 this was so lovely to watch because you guys picked up items and showed them and talked about them, which is sort of uncommon in these videos. Usually they'll quickly skim over everything and I'll be dying to know about an item that they passed by!
really gloves you paranoid generation of people are ridiculous. two words MODERN MEDICINE. worst case is you get some dirty hands anything funky wouldn't survive the elements
The house and its contains are soooooooo 70's, I grew up playing with paper dolls, listening to the radio, reading and writing a lot. I miss those days, sorrounded by the family, after a hard day of work, we used to enjoy delicious hot soups and tea.....I was forgetting the outer house, if the bathroom has to holes 😳😳sometimes when kids were scare the sister or sister or cousin used to go together.
I love to explore with you two. You are so respectful to the items you view. You are so young it is funny the way you react to some common items. I am 73 and truly enjoy spending time with you. Bekah you are the very best camera person of all the channels. You find the most interesting places. Please continue.
Vivian lowry I agree they are fun to watch especially their reactions to "old" things. Did you ever cook on a wood stove? I'd forgotten that and the scullery.
that looks like a giant chunk of coal on that old range from the 40's ! That old TV the Admiral , I worked in a factory back in 1963 where we built those TVs on an assembly line, before they had automatic conveyor lines! WOW !!
Crisco used to be used to make candles. Their sales dropped with rural electrification. So, they decided to sell Crisco as a cooking shortening. They used the slogan "it's digestible" to convince customers it was safe to eat.
I love your guys videos! But I love when bekah has the camera! She zooms in on everything and so much in to detail almost makes us feel like are there and and. Rick you dig through everything to find stuff awsome explores
I agree. Beka becomes our eyes and concentrates on things just long enough. Also, am I alone in thinking she has a very hypnotic type of voice? I find it very relaxing. Or maybe I'm just a bit weird!!!
This was a fun find. That wood cook stove would bring between one and two thousand dollars and the wood heating stove is about 3 hundred. When my family moved from Iowa to Missouri we had a heating stove like that one. It would work with coal or wood depending on what grate was inside. That old stove nearly let us freeze. Not a very good one at all but we could see the flames through the little windows in the door. Thanks for the share.
I remember going to my Great Grand Fathers house in the country and their out house was wall papered as well and had 4 seats, they raised 8 kids. Awesome paper doll set!
Thank-you so much for showing that sweet little bird nest towards the end, as well as the stripy latch on the outhouse... Just so ya know I love the way you shield us from the 'ugly' stuff. So many time graffiti is around but it really ruins it.. so thanks for looking the other way for us. You are very sweet.
AWWWW I actually remember the paper dolls! I do believe they are the ones my Mom bought for me in Kindergarten when I came down with the "MUMPS" yes I did it was 70's and I had ,Had the shot but regardless I had the Mumps.. it was hard to swallow very very weird!! felt like when you blow up a balloon too many times and your glands feel funny.. oh well GREAT GREAT find I LOVED the old house's..thank you
Theresa Oh wow, did your comment bring back memories for me. I think I had the chickenpox and it would have been early 70s, but my Nana bought me paper dolls to play with for the day. My Mother had to work that day and I was school age. Oh well, thanks for the memory!
I'm not into the newer large homes most everyone else wants, just a little old house from the era of this one would make me happy! The stained bead board ceilings add a nice touch to the rooms!
I played with paper dolls identical to those when i was a kid. My grandma had them at her house. She also had a Holly Hobby set. Fun memories from my childhood.
Love watching your video adventures. I recall when my parents (and I'm 55) talked about growing up in homes with no indoor bathroom - but to find this one wallpapered was fun! My dad shared they had a two seater but only three walls.
The colorful stacked cups were Tupperware, the rectangular white metal pan on the couch are is from the really old fridge for meat storage. The board on the non wood stove was for bread making and when it was hot out they used it instead of heating up the house. Very cool find!
You guys must not smoke. The first thing I noticed in the medicine cabinet was the pack of Kent cigarettes, and I'm a retired doctor! I really like when Bekah actually narrates the house and Rick does 📷. Just that her voice is so soothing. And you're always loud.
Kent drastically changed their packaging design in the mid-1990s. I still have a full unopened pack like that one. When they first started making them in the early 1960s, they used asbestos in their "famous Micronite filter". That didn't work out so well for them.
That'll teach me to read the comments first. I made almost the exact same comment as you about 30 mins ago. I am so glad someone else finds Bekah's voice soothing too. I was beginning to worry I was becoming a bit of a weirdo!!
Rick … No testing old products; even syrup could have bacteria in it! I think there was a Revere Ware tea kettle in the kitchen near the window. The kitchen chairs appear to be antiques. The glass medicine bottles are awesome. Perhaps an old man was the last to live there but at one time there was a woman’s touch. Thank you for showing us the paper dolls at the bonus house!
That's from about the 1920s. There is one on display in a museum labeled like that. Also used to have one in an old apartment years ago. That place had been built around 1918 to 1922.
IMO the way the glasses and dishes etc. were arranged and the newer newspaper indicates some one has been there packing up things to remove to another location. I am amazed the handles for the wood stove are still there sitting on the table. Frequently they get misplaced somehow in my experience cooking on the dang things. The stove is a real gem too. Bet it still would work and bake too. The scullery or dish washing area is amazing. That sink is old-old and wonderful I'd guess late 1800's/ Victorian piece. By the way never ever taste stuff from any house unless you know exactly when, where and how it came to be there. Not even your best friend's (besides you best ask before tasting). Syrups were often were mixed with bug poison to set traps to kill them. Everyone in the household knew about it so it wasn't a danger.
I grew up where things like this were done but everyone knew so it was not a concern. (Those good old times folks like to talk about carried some risks.) I caution people to not taste test items that can harm them. Old places from those times require caution. So, in a word, yes.
Yeah.. in the 1970's I knew an old lady who kept a jar of molasses mixed with some poison for the cockroaches that invaded her house after her brother moved a few boxes of his from the city. It took a few months but she did manage to get rid of ALL the cockroaches with that method. She would pour a bit into a saucer and put it under the sink... Jar went on the top highest shelf in the back corner. And she warned every visitor to her home.
Neat house! That "spotlight" Rick was a lamp that hung on the wall. Newer Wallpaper about the 70's. Would've been curious about the clothes in closet. Vintage perhaps. I was also curious about the coal heater. A more recent pine log box was in the kitchen. Looks like maybe a "passer thru " had used the place maybe when it was colder. Shotgun houses were used for railroad people a lot. Don't know if there was a RR track nearby. Enjoyed!
Just think she used to have a friend come over and they said at that table had a cup of coffee and a piece of cake and it was cozy and warm that's so sweet to imagine that thank you for your video
the old folks that llived there died and no one claened out the place or cared to keep it up.... It don't take long for and unlived in home to fall apart quickly....
I love you guys channel,i feel like i can't say it enough,the way you pay attention to detail,you're not afraid to "dig in" and get your hands dirty,how you zoom in on objects with your camera,and more importantly,you keep your words clean!! I love you guys, keep the videos coming and stay safe❤
I can’t get over how big this shotgun house really was. I grew up in a 1 bedroom home as a young kid with 3 siblings and my parent’s sharing a bedroom. I shared a crib with my baby brother. We had a one hole outhouse, and used a slop pail at night, I’m not an old woman either. I’m under 60. I know even that sounds old to you young kids. I loved the blue wallpaper in the back bedroom, how I wish my old home had that wallpaper on my bedroom walls. You just never know what kind of gems your going to find. I just started watching these videos and am hooked!! I wish you could invest in more battery packs for your video cameras. Maybe start a Paytreon?
I’m drawn to this house. I’d say it’s roughly 12’x 42’ including the pantry and mud room. Love the stove in the middle room. I’ve watched this video half a dozen times and keep seeing new details. You noticed the “main and range “ fuse box. Just the way everything is kind of mismatched is appealing. Love the sink and both ranges the wallpaper and linoleum. I know this place is gone; if only they kept the roof up. A nice piece of level ground too. I see so many places like this, not just houses, but barns, garages, and outbuildings in general, just moldering away. Thank you for showing these places, be safe.
Love the place, you said it was for sale? Any info on who to contact to get a look at the property? I'm in Ohio and want a quiet place to vacation at and possibly to retire to. Thanks for the video it was great to see a place that wasn't destroyed by vandals. That's why I'm asking about it. Looks like the people in the area respect others.
I spent summers when I was a kid in Palo Pinto, Texas with my aunt, uncle and cousins. They had a two-hole out house where one hole was smaller than the other. When we kids ran out to the outhouse, I would be yelling, “I get the little hole.” I was always afraid of falling into the wormy part inside the holes.
Guys, don't forget to add your other channels so they will show under the "channels" tab on the main channel. People will find them easier. I enjoy everything you guys make.
It reminded me of my grandmother's house. She had vacuum n tv just like that. Man what a great fine you two! I subscribed to your other channel. Loved the cat n mouse fun! Thanks for sharing!
I'm in my mid-fifties, the kitchen wall paper, the beer in the fridge and the large TV/STEREO bought back memories; mostly good. Bekah your pace with recording was exceptional. A chance to mull over items for a moment was refreshing. Thanks!
like the flowered quilt and the curtains, iodine is used to clean wounds like Neosporin. thanks for showing the paper dolls brings back memories. yall didn't check to see what the push broom had pushed up lol.
You edit the "bad stuff" in the refrigerator and chest, but you can't edit Ricks farts? Should have explored the out house first! Lol. Did Rick have to clean his shorts out after those? Loved the now illegal set of lawn darts, maybe they all killed each other off with them! Lol. Nice explore and thumbs up!
Can't let a girl see magazines with naked women in them for some strange reason but he walks around farting akk over the place. Seems like the kind of guy that likes to give orders. Did you see that at the end when he thought someone else was there? He was gonna take off and leave her.
That's why we always ask permission first before we go in a house. Usually there is always a family that owns the house but don't use it nearby. Then you don't have to worry if someone shows up but if you didn't you can get in a lot of trouble. It is trespassing.
The lovely old wooden toilets! My grandparents had them in their back yard on their farm. Granny would put the ash from the fires down them and a man would come round with his horse and cart and collect it to be used as manure on the land. And this is only about 55 year ago.
I love your videos, you two are my favorite channel for exploring old houses. I like how Rick takes the time to did and I love how Bekah takes her time to capture everything. Sometimes I do think Rick makes he hurry though. I have to say this was a great find but I was disappointed at the picture in the end. You guys disturbed the dining table and staged it. Not cool, it's the one thing I've always loved about you guys because you never did that and so mant explorers do. Also the Bayer bottle wasn't in the medic ent cabinet anymore at the last still shots. 😔
Binge watching your adventures. My favorite moments are when Becka discovers a doll and says "Oh, you didn't make it!" in her cute voice. Thanks for the vicarious fun!
I once found in abandoned house and if you look around real good the paper that is lining the cabinets is where you find the better dates. I found a newspaper that was during the Vietnam war. Pretty cool
RICK BEKAH,,WOW,,I LOVE THAT HOUSE,, I BET BACK IN THE DAY,,THAT HOUSE WAS REALY KEPT UP NICE,,LOOKING AT THE FURNITURE,,AND THE STOVES SINK AND SO ON,, THAT WAS A HIGH END HOUSE,,TO BAD ITS FALLING DOW N,, GREAT FIND,,I WISH I COULD OF SEEN IT NEW,,TAKE CARE LOVE YOU GYS,,CHERI DOW,,
Makes me feel my age seeing you marvel at the vintage of stuff that was commonplace for me at one time. I Enjoy your videos, especially Bekah's camera work.
I love to see abandoned homes with antiques or other stuff left behind. It tells a story of someone's life left behind like a museum. But PLEASE PLEASE DON'T TAKE ANYTHING. let's respect their life left behind.
Y'all are so funny watching. So young.😄 the coffee cans are old because they put it in plastic now. The creamer and asprin bottle was glass it's old. And the two seater was common in my area.😄 have used those before...but alone😁
Just an observation, why is he so bossy with the camera operator? She obviously isn’t into it. If someone talked to me like that, it wouldn’t end well for them.
Hi Rick AND Rebecca You are the only ones I watch for exploring. I love the fact that no foul comments are allowed, and you are the most interesting. Love you guys God Bless' Happy 4th of July 2019😁
Wow that is amazing I am a lover of restoring houses I am six year old mother two daughters but I totally restored and 1886 home to its original character I kept everything in the original character of the house it's absolutely amazing and beautiful I love these kind of fines and watching you guys this is amazing what you just walked in there to that is amazing
