TheDailyWoo I’m thinking about making a video of you and Jacob. With a whole bunch of pictures of where you guys stick your head in something it’s made me wonder how many times have you stuck your head in there to be a clown or whatever
I am really enjoying your Route 66 journey with Jacob. We are having snow here in West Virginia. Hope the weather doesn't get worse for you the further north you travel. I loved the Precious Moments place! The Route 66 rest stop was very unique. We go to the Steak n Shake in Pigeon Forge TN whenever we are down there. Their milkshakes are so good.
You were born to entertain us with this talent you have. My days are brighter now As I can look forward to riding with you every morning Just like old times. Thanks Adam I do appreciate you
This trip is just amazing. Can't thank you and Jacob enough for taking us along for the ride. Love the attractions and your one of a kind commentary, Adam.😁😄👍
Adam, thank you so much for making it into Kansas! You were in the county my dad was born and raised in. He and I are going back there this summer for his high school reunion. He graduated 61 years ago.
I’m surprised you didn’t stop in Joplin since it is one of the towns listed in the famous Route 66 song. I am happy to see these videos. The husband and I traveled the Route for our honeymoon. We made it just on the east side of Arizona (starting from Webb City, Mo where we lived) before we had to turn back. We have loved seeing all of the same sights in your videos!!
This city of Pitcher was deemed a superfund site due to lead contamination in the soil and groundwater from the improper disposal of mining waste (that's the short answer anyway). My aunt taught there for many years. There was also an issue with the town sinking from the mining hole/tunnels under the town.
I am loving your Route 66 journey!! You and Jacob make a great team!! Love the old school signs and buildings!! So many wonderful memories from the past!! Thanks!! Have a magestic Monday!!
My Grandmother had a collection of Precious Moments and would have LOVED that museum. When she passed all of us grandkids got a few peices of her collection.
It used to be much better. Mr. Butcher had a great dream - but moved away and it became “out of sight out of mind”. At one time they had a beautiful wedding chapel, a dancing waters show, and special music. There was a time when we wouldn’t think of going back to Galena, KS without a trip to the chapel. Yes - I grew up in Galena, KS and actually lived just off Route 66 and the Missouri/Kansas stateliness.
I visited the Precious Moments Museum 20 years ago and loved it . It’s so sad that it has been somewhat ignored since the figurines are not as collectible as they were in the 1970s-2000.
Great stuff as always Adam. Loved the Precious Moments Chapel and the throwback Steak n Shake. But(t) of course we can't forget about your visit to Uranus. Continued safe travels to you and Jacob.
I live about 10 minutes from the chapel, it's quite the hidden diamond. Unfortunately it will never become what what Sam Butcher had planned for the area.
Great to see you in Galena, KS! I live at the South end of town! Your route66 road trip, is invigorating the spirits, of many people. You both are so much fun... Love you guys!!
Great video! Love the Precious Moments Chapel! So beautiful! I could cry! You and Jacob are in my state now! I hope that one day my husband and I will get to meet you both! You are probably passing through our old "stomping grounds" today, somewhere near Bourbon/Cuba/Sullivan/Stanton Missouri. Safe travels to you & Jacob. God bless you both with many more amazing travels!!!
THANK SO VERY MUCH FOR WHAT YOU DO! I have been having a really rough time lately health wise and life wise. You and Jacob gave me some much need laughter and fun today. I was almost afraid the heart monitor people would call to check on me cause I laughed so hard lol. Thank you guys and keep up spreading the fun and adventures!
Who knew Route 66 had so many side attractions after the fact. I'm not a Precious Moments person but the Cathedral was awesome as well as the rest stop. Thanks boys for another fantastic journey. Safe travels. 😎
Coming from Kokomo,Indiana... Thank you for saving me a lot of money by taking me on the "Disney" trips and the sight seeing trips around the country..saving all this money on traveling..I was able to buy a "Hitchcock Would Be Proud" t-shirt..!!!
We've been to Precious Moments a few times. It is one of the most tranquil places a person could visit. If you need a relaxing and quiet vacation, go there.
great video. i went on a unexpected journey this weekend. took back roads. thanks for opening my eyes to all to old neon sign that are left behind. this was in my state of missouri
Really enjoying this road trip you guys are on. lot's of cool fun places out there on Route 66 were you can really gets your kick . hope you guys are enjoying your day be safe out there.
Really enjoying the videos. Love to oneday drive route 66 but my fear is driving on the wrong side of the road!! I notice there was no birds in that tree....I guess they were "shoed" away!!!
Haha! 'Nailing the snow'. Loving your sense of humour Adam the Woo. Iv been watching all your vids on the route 66 journey. A couple of friends did this a few yr back and i was intrigued by what sort of interesting things they may have experienced. I wish i was on this journey with you as it looks great fun. Cheers from Deb in Newcastle, England.xxxx
Nice storage building to your right at the very end. Great videos of your trip. I like seeing the old Pepsi signs. I used to drink RC cola once in awhile back in the day, it tastes pretty good. Tasted pretty similar to Pepsi back when they still used cane sugar in it.
I am a trucker, and have been to Uranus Missouri. The bill boards are too good not to stop. There is one billboard that says big fun in Uranus, and the cop car there says to serve and protect Uranus.
Uranus? The fire truck was really interesting. But, the cherub and stained glass windows was like a wonderland. I always had an RC and a Moon-pie as a kid!! Very cool to watch this video Adam!
Wow. That was really cool. That precious moments place would get me in trouble if I had the money lol! I was driving this morning from the hospital to go to my dad's house for a few minutes (He's in the hospital for a gallbladder they think) and the song "Get your kicks at Route 66" came on the radio. I can't wait to see more. Have a good day you two. Safe travels and thank you for everything you do. 🙂😎
Just watched this from my seat on the Amtrak. Came from Niagara Falls headed to NYC, then down to Disney for my birthday. Then the Keys and Pigeon Forge then home. Thanks for in inspiration you two.
Right by the Precious Moments Center there's a complex of several cold storage companies - all entirely underground and trucks drive around underground to reach them...
Wow! I am really not a collector of Precious Moments. I have a few of them. But that museum is a must see with the paintings and stain glass. Must see that place when I go through. That rest stop’s theming with the picnic pavilions are really cute. The little buildings and the road. Then the name of that roadside attraction, Uranus, I would not be able to keep a straight face going there. 😂😂😂.
Steak & Shake is my favorite burger chain.... love those burgers and shakes, and we don't have them here in Minnesota, so I eat them whenever I travel.... which isn't often enough. You lucky dogs !
Mater had 55 Chevy truck front fenders and chassis, an International Harvester Cab.....Holmes 210 tow rig from the 1940s... YOU are half correct Mr Carpetbagger....
That building with the Pepsi and Mt. Dew signs on it, looks like part of it caught on fire at one point. You can see black soot above 2 of the windows.
I remember when Central Florida had Steak-n-Shake stores which looked like the one in your video, complete with carhops. At some point in the late 70s, a bunch of them were either razed or turned into Grandy's. Yes, I'm old.
LOVE it Amazballs--- . Don't know when your going to hit Chicago- we received 2 inches of snow and it's still coming. Friday it's supposed to get up to 70...
