[@AnitaJones-yb9jd]

Ok

[@AnitaJones-yb9jd]

Okay I wanted you to know I am a bama fan 🪭 I did go see Helen Keller's house when I was in the seventh grade I went to her home and saw that in man it was fascinating to see what she really suffered maybe one day I can go to the football game but I don't like crowds because it makes me edgy juster what you call your donkey give him a hug and make him wave at me because I don't like you you're down to earth and your mama is nice but my mom is in heaven I got to go

[@HollywoodHappenings1]

I loved to see the Meramec Caverns; I have not been there since I was a kid. When you make it into Vinita, OK make sure you eat at the Hi-Way Cafe part of route 66, and make sure you try the homemade potato chips. The motel next door is a wonderful place to stay, the small town is a must see. I loved seeing parts of the Route 66 in St. Louis, that I had forgotten about as part of Route 66. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

[@LorieLee7]

As a kid I traveled with family through a lot of the U.S., and loved (& still love) the Americana treasures :) Sending prayers & blessings for safe travels to you and Scott, from Saskatchewan, Canada.

[@esliet]

The cavern is amazing. Jordan and Scott thank you , y’all are living the life

[@karenleemallonee684]

Thanks, Jordan for taking us through the caves and seeing the awesome bbq! Thanks again for sharing your trip!

[@katndon]

I love caves. I remember going to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky in the 70s when I was young. The tour guide said," Imagine a bowl of spaghetti, that is how many tunnels are in here." That stuck with me for many years.

[@jamessheets6604]

Another adventure with Jordan and Scott! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.

[@swansfan6944]

Why is it that every time I watch your videos, I seem to get hungry ? 😋 Another great day, thank you. ❤️Jodie 🇦🇺

[@sammychicken3457]

Thank you Jordon for this Jesse James episode. Loved it. I also appreciated you reading the sign for us to offer more information to us over the pond in Australia. Ta. Dave travels to yourself & Scott from Adelaide, South Australia

[@deltabourke1005]

Oh you were so close to my neck of the woods Jordan! I’d have been starstruck to see ya! Don’t feel bad about that toy museum, it hasn’t been open in 20 years. I’m glad you liked the caverns and made our state look good. Thanks for another excellent video!

[@jimcabezola3051]

[@johnpeddicord4932]

Enjoyed again Jordan, Scott

[@vernjr88]

We stopped in Winslow. Hope you make it that far at least!

[@tammyguyot6120]

20:10 I loved the Meramec Caverns, and at the end to hear God Bless America by Ethal Merman was Fantastic.

[@otto1630]

nothing like a road trip

[@catherine6653]

That was a terrific cave tour. The rock formations and colored lights were beautiful. As for the sugar rush, remember Genghis Khan in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure movie. He got his sugar rush energy from eating Twinkies and listening to Bon Jovi, Slippery When Wet. This was an excellent Adventure on Route 66. 😊

[@11arospight]

Happy to see you back in my city the greatest city in the world St. Louis 😊 ❤❤❤

[@downyourtube]

What a great adventure you guys are having. Thank you for sharing it with us/me. You're a pretty cool guy Jordan, don't let no one take that away from you. Be safe, hope to see more videos!

[@frankiebowman2825]

My husband and I stayed at The Wagon Wheel many years ago when we did Route 66. Safe travels.

[@anneholden9908]

Reminded me of Mammoth Cave. When I was about 12, we took a family trip to Iowa, where my Mom grew up. Many stops along the way. And Mammoth Cave was one of them! Thanks for sharing!

[@2HeartsandSomeBling]

[@flyoverurbangarden4315]

This is so much fun. The food looked delicious.

[@PamSchwetz]

Cool. Neat to see Merramec Caverns after all these years...went there as a kid a couple of times...the main thing I remember is they filmed part of a Tom Sawyer musical with Jodie Foster and Johnny Whitaker there...I don't remember all that Jesse James stuff...it was a very long time ago...We went to see the St.Louis Arch too...we rode inside of it...I think we saw some Mark Twain stuff too...not sure how far Hannibal, Mo was from there...long long time ago...We went on a paddleboat ride on the Mississippi River...Thanks for bringing back memories...Fun stuff...

[@tlt935]

I grew up a few miles from Meramec Caverns! My first job ever was at The Cave. My dad and sister still work there. I have since moved to St. Louis but I make annual trips out there for camping and family gatherings. It's a great place! I loved every second of this video. :)

[@sg2823]

Well, that was great touring those caverns! Get done for the day with a nice muleshoe and a brisket sandwich, great stuff. Some good eating so far on this trip. 😎

[@TonyandSusie-MillersontheMove]

Boy this was truly amazing to see. I can only imagine what it must have been like to actually have been there ❤

[@MTknitter22]

So great!

[@milliehowell6973]

Can't wait for you to get to the park. Where you're in Cuba, we're trying to promote the city and make it as well. Known as the Route 66 red Cedar Inn in Pacific. Straight down 40 four, you'll find the enchanting city of Cuba. We welcome you coming, and please stay.

[@jackiepordon8728]

Hi Jordan & Scott. The Caverns are so cool. I visited there 20 yrs ago when our kids were young. Kate Smith sang God Bless American when seated at the long stalactites. Some day I’d like to have a road-trip on Route 66. Thanks for this informative/interesting vlog. Safe Travels.

[@bonniekaye]

*Totally awesome video!* *You were in my neck of the woods!* 🙂👍❤️❤️

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan & Scott, oh, I remember that cowboy one arm bandit when I was a kid. Those caverns were amazing and interesting information. I think the Wagon Wheel Motel looks a cool place to stay. Great vlog Jordan.

[@valgrant3303]

Those Caverns are phenomenal. I have had to watch this vlogg in sections as my claustrophobia became a problem. But I wanted to see the whole lot. Glad I persevered. Love this vlogg (as I do with all of your vloggs). Keep up the great work. Love the history, sites and the adventures. Love it love it love it. Love you both doing this together.
