Instagram - AdamTheWooATW As I uploading this video I heard the news of Sean Connery’s passing . Truly an acting legend . May he go home and sleep well .
Adam, there's so many of these small towns here in Indiana. They all have their histories, too. Thanks for spending time here, showing us some of the rural areas we forget about
This is my home state. I live near Philly now. Love this video miss the Indiana clouds and country side views. The sunsets there are amazing. THERE GOES THE FREIGHT TRAAAAAAIIINNNN!!
The the cows and all those small towns. So peaceful and uplifting in these challenging times. It has to do your soul a world of good too. Yes, RIP Sean Connery.
Love the hills and valleys of southern Indiana. Do you shop at the farm close to Santa Claus, it's all grass feed beef and chicken? I can't think of the name but want to get down their soon. They also make cheese.
I love it! Little town called Hartsville in Indiana. It has so much history behind it! Orville and Wilbur Wright grew up there, and their parents were professor at the college that burnt down in Hartsville. Population of 300!
@@meandthemrs7403 yes I do lol. His previous trip, he was a couple miles away. Just excited to see him show love to Indiana. Nothing special really goes on in small towns lol you get me?
@@mlr975 Actually, Vice President Mike Pence and his entourage went through Matthews last year on their way to the Taylor University commencement. I was at work on that Saturday morning and saw them go by. Who would have guessed. The Vice President one year, and Adam The Woo the next.
Lifelong Hoosier here (born/raised in the town with the Lincoln plaque). I've been to a lot of these places. Yoder is pronounced with a long O. Gaston, sadly, isn't pronounced like the Disney character. The accent is on the first syllable; GAStun. Likewise Advance has the accent on the first syllable, not like the word that means to go forward. Pizza King is a central Indiana chain and most of them have really good pizza.
Boonville has a plaque in the town square that reads "where Lincoln learned the law". Lincoln was raised one county east in Spencer County. Spencer county has an entire park, Lincoln State Park. Years ago I lived in: Boonville, Chandler, and Evansville. I have lived most of my life all over Southern Indiana.
@ Scary Stardust this is such a perfect comment. Everytime he slows down to chat with the cows, I pray one of them says "Well Adam, I was having a Cow Patty kind of day until you came by."
These are my favorite format of Adam's videos -- where he just unhurriedly looks around small towns. They are so respectful and relaxing. And, with his videos, I get to look around towns where I wish I had the time to stop and visit.
This Road trip, because you missed your flight back to California, is Awesome!!Especially great during these times when travel is on the back burner😷 Loved Road trips so much in my youth, we drove to Willaiamsburg Va many times, Skyline Drive in Va...and many others😎just loving the old towns, homes etc. Also love seeing the Fall season through you, from New Jersey, but have lived in Florida 22 years, the Hotbox of the nation and ohhhhhh the humidity never leaves anymore😡I am over it!!!
I thought the same thing about his videos having an artistic quality when I was watching this video. Several scenes could paintings! Especially the ones of the clouds and the corn fields....
Excellent, unique and humble enough for your own PBS weekly show especially for kids. I could ride along for hours. Thank you for making the mundane magnificent.
31.10.20. UK.Backroads US. Our Credentials Not Spell Chckd. This is what the UK Police have told us can never be read by public..Firstly re the films. When we saw the first few episodes this we were impressed But just as with so many of the films on the Internet we started thinkin,not just lookin. Here is what we know to be of value. Our trainin was 12 yrs spent traipsin Cent London knockin at doors axxompanied by victims of the establ. We got death threats from HM court system and the US security orgs like Burns. They were the ones who shot and beat up US Workers when they refused to Accept starvation wages.. We are still being subjected to violence by Police and we have endured threats of violence by US embassy etc. The public are not much different. We found 2.5 people who could be trusted. The friends we had at BBC said- "Hide the Evidence Abroad" The indictment? 30000 avoid deaths over 35 yrs. The press,.F-bk. twitter. yahoo etc destoy the evidence. Heres our report on the films about backroads. How can this man go around staring at abandoned buildings dwellings businesses without asking the folks round there how they are coping and why the people left there and even left valuable automobiles and trucks to stand and rot. This character spent more time chattin to cows,steers, horses than to the suffering folks. We noiticed that when he showed a "church" it seemed to be in good shape. Aint that typical. Go look at parts of poverty stricken Italy and what do we find but massive luxury buildings. When we first were approached by victims we did not fully believe their tales. Within two yrs we went to the giant HGQ of the Catholic Religion in London and tried to tell them about all the evidence.,they could not care less We went to that Catholic HQ because one of their "faithful" supporters when he had an accident was offered 5 pence by a vicar as a remedy for poverty.We went to five other religions and all politrical orgs,wirth same result. We then found out trhat they are getting handouts thro Govt and or Charity lotterty etc.We were getting threats .Its all about compliance which keeps the Govt in place. When you add sport,art ,drama you got a mirror image of 3rd Reich and Roman empire PR. The kids are the scapegoats We have now found over 26 corrupt Universities and no student responds. That also took place in 1933 Germany. The man doing these films needs to become more human rather trhan play silly games in order to appease the public and get ticks.. When ever he did rarely, manage tro talk to someone the other person was almost imposs to hear. How come? When he fills up with gas theres rarely any view other that the gas hose. He spends ages trying to re enact some crap violent or cop movies and seems to be engrossed with that horrific scene. I reckon hes just usin PR to enhance viewing by giving a clueless ands naive public what they want.How irresponsible. Has he got kids? Our advice? Go do somethin useful. Go work for Trump or Clintons.Theres an Amat Radio station Dallas who transmit every day at 8am to 10 am. 38.40 Bill N frends. They got sheds full of firearms.They say the bad areas are all Democrat but we dont know if its true. We told N Pilozi but no sign of reply. Dont worry about the public will you. ..We are just scum. But the virus is doing some payback. Whjat a shame .Local Govt to us- "If Theres Anything Wrong With Local Govt The public Must Go get a Lawyer" to communicate with the lawyer already paid for.Appeasement and Manipulation aint workin.
Next time you pass through Indiana, check out Parke County: the covered bridge capital of the world. 32 bridges, most in absolutely remote places. You can get a map at the visitor center, and find all of them. It’s fun! Back in 2003, I filmed all of them (that you could drive through) with a video camera, perched out my Honda sunroof.The others I walked through, in a time before GoPro image stabilization! I found out who in my family got motion sickness the easiest! 😀 Some of the covered bridges are as long as football fields, and sit like temples to another time. But the draw for me: unreal quiet. And at Turkey Run : Shades State Parks, unbelievable canyons, straight out of a Lord of the Rings movie.
What a treat to be able to cross this amazing country via small towns and back roads. There is so much history, like living time capsules if you will. Really enjoying this series, Adam! Thanks for bringing us along. :)
I really love you doing these series. I'm in the UK so it is great to see small town America that I wouldn't usually. So many beautiful buildings, advertisements and fun sights, but so sad that so many places are shut up now.

Pretty cool to show all the small towns in the area. I'm from Ossian (Ah-See-eh) so I recognized a bunch of the areas around. And yeah you were right pretty early on in the video, our landscape is corn, corn, corn, some beans, and corn. Also the Chief statue in Montpelier was featured in the intro to the show Parks and Recreation, for anyone who haa seen the show. And since you brought up the court house in Hartford city, there's also a large old sandstone brick court house in the town of Bluffton that looks pretty nice as well. It was built in 1889.
Yoder name is pronounced Yo der...pronounced kinda like Yo in yo yo toy. Amish country and Amish name. Loving your travels Adam....you aren't too far from our own Michigan~ Stay safe
That's exactly what I was thinking! I read a lot of Amish fiction and know there are a lot of Amish living in Indiana. More and less expensive farm land for them there than in Penn.

The beauty and tranquility of those countrysides, small towns, and communities... and the kindness in the hearts of those good people... is more of what we need in this day and age. Indiana is a wonderful state and those are some of the best parts. I would respectfully counter that you weren’t in the middle of no where... but in the middle of some of the absolute best of America my friend. Awesome video as usual Adam. Love the road trip, small town, and Cross Country adventures. You are a very talented guy... but it definitely shines for the world to see in these kinds of videos. 👍🏻
@Aphex2x Just my experience from my visits there. People have always been kind and helpful. Nothing more and nothing less. Sorry if you had bad experiences there. I look at the hearts of people and their character to determine whether it is an area that seems friendly to me or not.
I love your travels through small towns, especially love those abandoned buildings that are so intriguing. that one small building looked like it was a charming home at one time 🏡 . even that little shack makes me wonder why it was abandoned. LOL at every cow eyeballing you as you drove past them on your way out ... Adam the Woo's wiiiillld kingdom lol. thanks for bringing us along on this mishmash ride.
Ahh you’re in my neck of the woods! I’m surprised we still have Family Videos in our area, they’re much like the one you saw. Also, highly recommend Pizza King, their Stromboli sandwiches are amazing. Hope you enjoyed your time in the Hoosier state
You would get a kick out of Pizza King. Your drinks arrive to the table by way of a small train. It pulls up beside you and you open a little window on one end of your booth to get your beverages.
Didn’t realize you were going through Indiana. I would have told you to go through Peru Indiana. It’s called - Circus Captial of the World. Peru was the winter headquarters for several famous circuses, including Ringling Brothers, Hagenbeck-Wallace, Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, and others.[14] The International Circus Hall of Fame is located in Peru. It’s a small town. Best Spanish hot dogs. My husband and his family are from there.
It seems like we, people from Indiana, are the only ones who know that Peru is the circus capital of the world.... so much about Indiana the rest of the world doesn't know about...
This was awesome! I live north of Indianapolis. I love our corn fields and the farmers harvesting. The cows were great. They were quite interested in you in the last scene! 😂👍🏻
A big thumbs up for this video “Driving thru Indiana: Forgotten Small Towns & Backroads.” This was a very enjoyable 16 minute segment, with interesting architecture, town names, animals like dogs, cows including one giraffe! Thank YOU, Adam the Woo.
g,day adam from melbourne australia, this is what i love to see , small town america, freight trains and extremely inquisitive cows. loving every minute of this trip, thanks mr.woo.
Another great video! It seems missing your flight was a blessing. You really have found some unique, interesting, and also Iconic places during this past road trip! It has been so fun to watch.
Yes it is soothing checking out small towns in different areas and or states seeing unique things not seen locally. ENJOY seeing the road trip back to Cali. 👍
What a great adventure Adam loved looking at all the old vintage signs, buildings and soda machines and not to mention the beautiful scenery and just thank you Adam for making this adventure one heck of a good time with the way you talk about everything you showed because it just makes me me feel so good inside to relive a little bit of history because like I always say your never to old to learn about what America use to look like and with your journey back to Southern California your giving me a taste of good old Americana and I can’t wait to see and learn more so thanks again Adam and with that peace ☮️ love ❤️ and happiness to you and I’ll see you on the next vlog adventure also please be safe out there
Love this video. I have been a Hoosier all my life and lived in Advance some years ago. You covered some of my husband's old stopping grounds back in his youth near Ossian.
I so love the road trips you do Adam this is great were about to enter a second lock down here in England so these vlogs really help my anxiety a big thank you 👍
This is unbelievable. I’ve followed your videos for years. And I’ve always wanted to meet you. I live in Hoagland, and you had to pass right past my house on your way to Poe. And I would have been home. What a bummer!!!
