Elvis Presley May 15th 1955 Ernul North Carolina Scott, Bill & Dj told by Spa Guy and Dad

[@frigginjiggy]

Holy cow, wow. 43 years after his death and people are still listening, learning, researching and yearning that man named Elvis Presley. Cheers to all of you for keeping his memory alive. 🍺

[@ericbryant-dz8mj]

Did you know Elvis died?

[@jasona8096]

You need Dad with you more often he's pretty smart!!!!!

[@julieguy1023]

Great video. I just love that your dad was with you. ❤

[@cindythecatwoman1601]

This is like finding buried treasure. Someone should restore that building and turn it into a museum. At least put a sign saying Elvis was there.

[@markryan3136]

First time I’ve commented on here Billy, I’ve been watching your videos for the last three years, and I just wanted you to know that you bring great joy to the Elvis fan community. God bless you my friend and Billy senior as well. (You look like your Dad)

[@SpaGuy]

Thank You Mark.. And Yes I do look like him..

[@elvispreston3685]

More than likely Elvis and the boys got a Sandwich, and chips, and a cold Pepsi, most of these little towns had what they called Mom and Pop places, they would make you a Sandwich of your chose, and you could take it on the road, i did that many times in my travels, it was way cheaper than going to a restaurant, and back then the money wasn't that good, it's so nice of you sir to show these memories to us, man no one would have ever seen this place if it had not been for you, thank you very much for your dedication to showing these Elvis memories, no movie, no teen mag. every talked about great things like this memory..keep up the good work, always Aron...✌❤👍❤⚡

[@robertm.8385]

Awesome video Billy, great detective work again. Thank you for keeping the memories of Elvis alive.

[@kevinfindley690]

You should turn your Elvis adventures into a book with pictures or even a pop up book I would buy it a 100%

[@lusimyer]

Great idea I'd buy a book

[@C.M.S.recordingsstudio]

Great to see this Billy, you and Dad nailed it again my friend.

[@brendalawrence6732]

This was so cool, I wish they would fix that old store/gas station/post office back up, it's a classic for sure! Days forgotten....Loved the reproduction post card, that is really cool. Loved seeing your dad along with you too Billy! Yep, y'all tightened up alright, these are the best little stories!

[@susanryan3816]

That was great Billy , your imagination just goes wild thinking about those days when elvis and the boys went about gigging , great to have your dad on board , keep them coming.

[@barryessam4731]

[@nancynelson5380]

I loved this video...had to watch it twice! To think you can make that entire video with all that amazing history from a postcard! ... I am amazed! I can't get enough of those old places where Elvis lingered for a moment in time. You bring it all back to life by telling the stories. And I especially loved your daddy being in the video♥️Cool beyond words!

[@stewartscott9856]

Who knows how many years that postman spend living and working there, if that old building could talk the tails I'm sure those old walls could tell, and to think in 1955 'greatness' passed that exact way just moments caught in time, fascinating stuff here yet again Billy, nice job!

[@marchuntjens6092]

Due to a story told by Horace Logan, Elvis received in those days $200,00 for a Saturday night in the Louisiana Hayride with Bill, Scott and DJ. In December 1956, mister Logan used the words 'Elvis has left the building' after an Elvis show. For the first time I guess, but I'm not sure. Thanks for the great video, Spa Guy!

Great vlog Spa Guy! Its awesome to see your dad. I hope all is well.

I love history. Neat story about post office. Restoration necessary!! That would be so cool!!

[@imaculadaconceicao6892]

Os caminhos de uma Lenda... Estou aqui Billy, ouvindo músicas do Elvis, de seu seleto repertório. Ouço todos os dias, às vezes de manhã, de tarde e de noite! É muito amor pelo meu lindo.

[@robanderson7471]

WOW ! So many subjects im this Elvis History lesson. Elvis ,Scotty, DJ. , vintage postcard (social media in 1955) Ernul N.C. ,historical post office/town center ,father n son adventure ,beautiful country ,urban exploring ,John Deere Green ,Glory eye n sky virtual view of course, reenactment skills extraordinaire , photo match ups to current status. Much more I'm certain in this piece of the Elvis puzzle. You did great with this one and made it so special having your own father with you and explaining things like the electric insulator on top of building still there and previous porches stairs etc... Please bring father along for more adventures if possible. This reminds me of my own childhood with my own father exploring these same type areas N.C. East Tn. KY. Dad was traveling salesman in the territory and took me along on many journeys we explored and navigated. way back in small places like this. He sold heavy specialized hauling and rigging services to manufacturers that many times started as family business out in country and grew much larger but remained home based. I was blessed to see the country just like this on trips with my dad explaining the things used to be and seeing much of country before landscape was gone forever. This was great start to my week ! Thank y'all so much Billy Sr Billy Jr

[@diannadeegug]

We need the rest of the story! Put the drewtective on it and see who owns the place, get more pictures and see if you can get in. People like you that preserve history are priceless. Great Job! And big kudos for taking your dad along. Those shared moments are really special! Maybe that moment in Elvis' life wasn't the biggest but it was an important moment. All those early days are the best in my opinion. Elvis was on an adventure with his band mates and like your dad said, they were probably almost out of gas and trying to find anywhere to fill up and this little place became part of history that morning. Soo cool!!

[@marycarey6854]

Dying to know about how you found out about the postcard?! Thanks for your special interest and info and sharing with all! Stay safe! Mary from Michigan

I truly enjoyed this adventure and I always look forward to your videos. Thank you for this, I think it's history like this being lost to fast.

[@tennesseebrigadeanv1523]

Fantastic video! Anyone else find themselves imagining Elvis and the boys pulling up to that store in 1955? The Spa Guy is almost as good as a time machine.

[@silvanacovos8115]

Billy , você nos trás grandes aventuras , adorei ! Amo as histórias por trás das fotos 👏 👏 👏 Obrigada !!! Elvis Forever ❤️🎸

[@elladunfee6706]

Really enjoyed this. So nice your dad could join you.

[@dennisbrandon3404]

If you drop down to street level on Google maps the building still has the wrap around porch. Great video, thanks for doing all these.

[@toddhensley880]

Yep stairs were still there too!

[@MlleMDM]

Good point 👍🏻

[@marieacuna2207]

Good tips.😉 thx

[@valeriefelitto6336]

This was great little look-see. You are a fine sherlock in the world of elvis

[@brcisna]

Nice Starsky skills SG. These old buildings are very cool. As an aside,,the little town where i grew up had a very similar building right next to railroad tracks. can barely remember it being the post office on the left side and on the right side of the building was small grocery store. It was a two story and the people that run the store and PO lived up there. Much the same as your post card there were still remnants of a depot station on the opposite side of the RR tracks. By my time the little railroad burg had died out and all the small town depots were closed of course. This looks like one of those 'confusion junction' spots were several roads converge then redistribute in other directions. Like your Dad said ,,would about bet a dollar to a donut the Blue Moon Boys didn't have a road map to their name. They rolled 'by the seat of their pants' from gig to gig. Thanks again.

[@georgeb3023]

Keep doing what yous doing ...fantastic stories Best regards for Scotland UK

[@exdus235]

[@cut1986]

Billy. If you go to google maps street view the imagery is from 2007. The porch is still intact. I believe the footing you discovered is that of the porch. I bet the road has changed from the looks of things. Great video thanks again!

[@golfo909]

Amazing detective work. Great stuff Spa Guy👍

[@toddhensley880]

I like that wrap-around two story porch.

[@stephentarasenko1603]

Just a fascinating video!!! Your dad is in outstanding condition Billy!! What a champ!!!

[@mjanovec]

I decided to look up this building in Google Earth. Looking at the aerial photos, you can tell the building has been rapidly deteriorating over the past years. In the 2017 aerial photo, the two story porch was still present, but gone as of 2018. Also, by 2019, a portion of the metal roof has been ripped back by a wind storm, exposing the interior (which is also obvious in the drone footage). I imagine the decay of this build will only accelerate more rapidly now with a portion of the roof gone. The building itself could easily be gone within a few years. Google also has a street view of the building from 2007, which more clearly shows the porch. It was looking pretty rickety in 2007, so it may have collapsed sometime in 2017 or 2018... or was torn down to prevent local kids from getting hurt on it. The sign out front is also visible in the 2007 photo. It doesn't appear to be the sign seen in the barn. It appears to be wider and has the word "General" visible on it... most likely for a general store.

[@dragoon6016]

Lost my Dad 15 years ago this morning. Teared me up seeing you out adventuring with your Dad. Hold him close. Great video...

Excellent detective work. Your diligence should have been rewarded by finding that post box. Well done. good work guys.

[@vernareed2692]

Love that old building! It was such a pretty building with the 2 storied & wraparound porches! Too bad it fell into disrepair!! And with the post office in it! With that roof gone it wont take long for building to rot out! Sad! That is awesome to have your dad with you!

[@brendabooher6683]

Your Dad is so nice. This is the first time I had watched this video. Thank you Spa Guy for another great one. God Bless.

[@rayfegan8701]

Even though the building looks like it's ready to fall down it's still really cool to see another piece of Elvis history from so long ago. Is your Dad a big Elvis fan like you Spa Guy? Just wandering. Another fantastic Elvis related video. Thanks.👍😎

Nice one brother Billy another interesting great video I always think to myself when you say the dates of shows I wish I had a time machine😁. honestly as I watched this video I was thinking to myself what a blessed man you are your doing what you love doing and your blessed to have your dad with you I know you appreciate him. my father passed away when I was 27 I'm 53 now about your age what would I give to have my old dad ride around with me these days.

[@chrisrose5740]

Elvis was booked on the spirit of Washington and played on the boat at the Wharf but to many people showed up and the boat couldn't leave the port so he played on the boat facing the hill where everyone was

[@jmf2471]

I love this video! The old photos and how you put this all together. I could just imagine them stopping for gas and going inside the store. Elvis picking up a grape Nehi and some snacks for the ride. Great job Billy.

[@soniagardencourtreporter1173]

That was so sweet and awesome you and your dad. Together

[@MorningMary67]

It makes me wonder what Elvis was doing when Scotty was mailing the postcard. Maybe he went in the store and got a Pepsi to drink. Or maybe he was asleep in the backseat of the car. Maybe Bill or DJ was pumping the gas. I'm glad the store is still there, although I wish it wasn't in such bad condition. It's amazing you found this! Nice that your dad was with you too.

[@70applejack]

He probably was calling his mom on the pay phone. He did that to let her know he was okay but yes he probably got a Pepsi and something to eat too.

[@judyjames7201]

This is such an amazing video thank you so much Elvis was just all over the place TCB ⚡

[@bobc.5698]

We've all probably been right at places Elvis was at and didn't know it. Also, I looked at the dates of 54 and 55.....it was relentless. They went everywhere. I'm interested in the Helena, AR. dates. My Uncle told me that he saw Elvis walking down Cherry Street with a girl on each arm.
