Soooo ... tell me ... what part of Athens is "downtown?" This alum ever heard of that part of town. :) Nice drive-through of Athens, though. It's still a beautiful town.
This was fun to watch. I grew up in this town 72-87. Spent alot of time on the very streets you filmed. Some changes but not that many really. I live in Jacksonville, FL. now. Nice little take me back , clip. Thanks.
@FreewayAndrew I love your tour, but can't help mentioning that you missed some really really beautiful neighborhoods. Soring, Franklin, Grosvenor str, Walker, N. Lancaster, forest str, Old Peach Ridge, Madison str etc. Absolutely beautiful, cozy, gives you a feeling of home. On this Thanksgiving day, I wish with all my heart I could be there....
Amazing tour, this confirms how much Athens is as nice as I was suspecting it was for years. I unfortunately have never been able to visit there, but would like to one day.
It's very rare for me to ever see roundabouts anywhere(least in the U.S., anyway, though I've heard they're more common in Europe), and about the only one I can think off of the top of my head is one Normal, IL installed, when they redeveloped their downtown a few years ago. Really enjoyed seeing the OU campus!
@prfsnlwannabe You haven't seen the most beautiful parts of the town. There are some incredibly beautiful and cozy neighborhoods. Don't go through life without visiting Athens. In fact if I could, I would move there NOW!
That looked great. Great picture and great music. Wonder if those three ladies that saw you filming will get on you tube here and see themselves. Wonder what they will say about it. Keep up the good work on the videos.

I know it is a sped-up film, but it seems you were speeding because a car that was pulling out didn't even see you coming.

Wow you almost got nailed at that traffic light (4:58)! I noticed quite a few bad drivers in this one haha.
Other than that Athens is a great place, and full of the party life.

thanks for great tour and the music. But I wonder why you didn't stop everytime you passed the STOP sign? Isn't is unlawful?

Good memories. I would stop to eat in Athens with my family and later on while I was chasing storms.

cool, a turbo-like roundabout in the beginning. You don't see many of them over there I suppose

@writer125 Thank you! The 3 ladies probably don't know what the video title is, so it would be unlikely they would see it.
