 28 April 2019 This is Shea Bear 1000, a kind, trusting soul whom will do anything to help the unfortunate. A little rough around the edges though devastatingly handsome. By his side is Monkey 1000, a brave explorer from the Northern Territory known to many as Canada. A wise and outgoing lass, albeit a little comedic at times. By their side is their trusty sidekick known only to some as Bruno. A lovable chap with a good heart and a nose like a bloodhound, though sometimes he poops. Are you brave enough to join them as they set out in their trusty steed on a quest in the journey to find the ultimate footage worthy of a viral video? Okay guys, this is the surprise I was telling you about. You see Monkey right over there doing her intro. This is it. Now, I got some mediocre drone footage. It got windy as soon as I took the drone up, but I got some footage I'll put in this video. We was going to climb, but she went to get her camera and then she started to ask me questions and I crashed my drone and it shot. It's done. It's broke. It's got bent motors. It's done because I hit the tower when she said something. I looked over at her and I hit the tower and it fell that far down. So anyway, I had to go help her. So the drone fell that far. Monkey's over there doing her intro again. I brought three cameras in the drone and she said, that's too much equipment. I said, you can never have too many cameras. Too many cameras. Yeah, you can. It's a good thing I brought three because our 4K, the one I was using yesterday to do the rocket stove. For some reason it's freezing up. It's not doing anything. I mean, it's working, but it won't hit record. The counter comes up and it does nothing, so I'm not sure what's going on there. Now I'll bet she's glad I brought an extra camera, one for me, one for her, and in case something happens. While they're new cameras, it doesn't matter. It's electronics. Anything can happen. But anyway, I was going to take you clear up to the tippity top of this thing, but the gate is locked. So we can't go up it anymore. They condemned it. I'm figuring because there wouldn't steps. That you can climb, and we're going to go out and about so you can see. And I found this. What year was it built then? 30s to 40s. Yeah, 30s to 40s. It goes. And they used it during World War II. I'm not going to know when it's still got trapped. They used it during World War II because they were doing them mustard gas experiments around here or whatever. And that's what they used it for during that. And then it became the fire tower. Like I said, I got some drone footage. It's not the greatest, but I'll put some drone footage in. Monkey will put some in hers, but it got windy up there, and then I crashed the drone so the drone will never fly again because we hit one of these about 100 feet up, maybe 75 feet. So let's get you back here. I'm trying to keep you out of the sun and try to get kind of a more of a perspective. It's high, but I did have the drone up there. I went way above it to try to get you guys some clouds and the area. So I went up about 150 to 175 feet. I know it was 150 feet, but I went way above this to get more of a view around, but there it is. They used to have one of the windows open up there. And my thing was if it was locked, I was going to fly the drone into one of them windows, climb over that gate, and then I would have an excuse to go get my drone to be up there. But this was the surprise, and I'm sorry I can't get up there for you guys, but I really don't want to risk it of going to jail. Yeah, I climb over it. Oh, I'm not worried about the steps. Well, that's all I worry about. I don't think anybody would bother us on a day like this. Well, all these, there's neighbors here, so, and they know this place is condemned now. We thought we had to hike the way we were thinking after our hike. Drive. We just drove. Yeah. So, you know. Trucks over there. There's a truck. And they've got pamphlets and stuff, so I'm going to look through some of the pamphlets. And if we can't find something else to film for you guys, and again, I'm sorry, oh, I got some shitty drone footage, and there is a store from 1922 still in business. So we're going to try to find that for you guys. Where they sell, damn it, where they sell canned goods and stuff. I'm trying to stay out of this. There we go. It's hopefully Shea Bear's footage will be available. But there you go guys. Sorry it was a big let down, just like everything in my life. Always letting everybody down. But we tried, right? And we drove an hour just to get in this area. And it took another hour to find it because the GPS was taking us, had us clear over there where we could have walked, but we would have came out these woods here. I'm glad we kept driving because then we drove right up to it. So I'm going to get the camera stuff. And she's walking away, so I'll do it by myself, I guess. And I'll talk to you guys soon. So general store right behind me over there. If you see some drone footage, you'll actually see the general store. And I'll point it out in the video in the drone footage. It's right across the street. I'm going to show you this placard and you can pause it and read up on it. Because I'm not that great of a reader. I'm talking to the owner and he said that it's all original except for the roof. Roof, of course, is a new roof. But everything else, all the siding, all the tin work is all original. Most of the counter is all original. I thought this was cute. Let me show you this. Let me give you a pan of this. From 1922, let's go inside here. And I'll show you the post office. They said they'd take a lot of part of Tampa. So cool. And they had to put the floor down because it had solid concrete. It was more towards the same lake area. Yeah. And loops. Yeah, that's the part of it. As long as I'm not in the picture, I'll be fine. No, I won't get you in the picture. I'm already probably on the milk cart and so on. I thought you looked familiar. I'm the guy that's standing next to you. Awesome. Thank you guys. I appreciate it. No problem. You guys have a wonderful day. You all too. All righty. This one like this for sale. She likes, you know, kind of looks. So cool. And what's interesting is all this stuff on these old signs here, they still sell in there. All this stuff. You can find it on the shelves in there. I've seen everything that they've got here. They've got on the shelves. I got me a Coke and you actually take it and they have a bottle opener right there. Just like back in the day, you'd go in, open you up a bottle of Coke, a bottle of Pop, whatever. And sit there and shoot crap. There's the sign again. I don't know if you guys will be able to read it if you pause it. But yes, it was built in 1922. This is in 1926, Pasco County. That's the county where Deputy Sheriff William O'Berry was shot and killed east of the store while attempting to arrest Charles Davis. A worker at the local turpentine still. Oh, he was a worker at the local turpentine still and it was over the theft of a dog. The store was robbed in 1928 and burnt, likely from Orson. But was rebuilt soon after in February of that same year. That's pretty cool. This is awesome. Hopefully you guys will be able to pause this and read it. But I'm going to take a still image anyway for my own use. Alright guys, I appreciate you watching so you'll always not lost a really cool store. Have a really fun day. Hell of a nice drive. So listen, I'm going to say, Shae Bear, I'm gone for now. And I'll see you guys in the next one. Remember, the metamandel edge and take care guys. I get in the truck and this truck reeks of licorice. And I wonder why. Because she had to get her favorite licorice. And it cost six dollars. But we did get a popcorn thing. Tell them. It's a popcorn on the corn. Cob. It's a popcorn on the corn. Cob. It's corn, it's still on the cob. And you put it in the microwave. I can guess in a little bag and it pops right off the cob. So that's going to be cool. We're going to do a video on it. I'm sure she'll do it for her channel too. And we'll let you guys do that tonight. Okay. All right. So we're going to see what else we can find. All right guys. Bye bye for now. Like I said, she's out. Bye. Why are you jumping out of the truck real fast? I'm going to get you a log. We're sitting here looking for things to do around here. And she's been talking all day. And she just happens to look over and says, is that a log over there? Because she wants me to do that rocket stove thing. Yeah. So I'll get this log and he can do that stove thing when I'm working. Just waiting for the car to go by. As usual, there's always a frigging car. If she... Bruno, get down. There's two of them. If she rolls that over and there's a snake under there. Bruno, get down please. Come on, get in the back. She's crazy. It's a perfect log though. For what we're going to do. Ghost story to tell them. Uh huh. Yeah. So we'll tell them in a different video. So stay tuned for that, huh? Yeah. See? We're not alone. We're out in the middle of fucking nowhere. I told you. Like this is going on outtakes. Everybody knows how I feel. Every time I fire up the damn camera. There's a damn car. And I want to show you. We're out in the middle of freaking nowhere. Look at that. Nothing for miles. I just turned the camera on. 30 seconds ago. Here comes a damn car. Every time.
