TDW 1764 - Last Covered Bridge In South Carolina

[@ericowen2108]

The bridge reminded me of a quote from the movie Funny Farm... 'That's not a bridge, that's termites holding hands.'

[@TheDailyWoo]

+Eric Owen love that movie !

[@pirategirl58]

Cue the deer!

[@shilothepup9357]

That's what we called our Middle School that was temporarily located (2 years) at the old Ft Lauderdale Naval Air Station from the 1940's.. the Lost Avengers crews were stationed there and Vincent Price even filmed a show on them and the Bermuda Triangle while I was there. We got to watch the filming in the afternoon. 1968-69, how cool is that for a school!

[@crush41gb]

That rock jazz in the tire just happened to me this week! Thank God it was just that! lol :-P Have your best day yet, everyone! :) I haven't been to that bridge 1989. I remember having my Gameboy snd playing baseball or Mario tennis and asking when we could go see BTTF II!! :-D Thanks gor going there.. all these years I remember being there but, not the name until now. :)

[@Laurieannmoore22]

I lmao at the skeleton enjoying the metal yard work at the start of the video. Also you brought back memories from my nursing days when you tripped. I want working in a nursing home & there was a lady who yelled at me every time I went in front of her door because she said I was gonna step on her dog. No one was allowed to go across that area. One day I came be-bopping along & tripped over nothing. She looked at me & said I thought you my dog was there. And said "That damn dog trips everybody ". Now even though it's been 30 years when I do it now I say "Damn dog", in her memory.

[@AH-ew6ei]

Though the interstates were made to get people to their destinations safe and easily. This is Amazing to watch the roads less traveled. The architecture, the country, and the people of the area. It's Great to see Our United States from Adams perspective. Keep your eyes open folks Adam and Large Marge just might be at your front door.

[@shilothepup9357]

They were..........once long ago. But people being the idiots they are always want to be somewhere.... now. I love that Adam shows us the roads less traveled since the Interstate Highways have "killed" many of the little towns that thrived on travelers before their advent. I travel them also and meet wonderful folks. please do yourself when you have time.

[@CSDonohue11]

Shilo the Pup Oh I do myself. Even if I have to make time to do myself. As long I’m pleased. Please do yourself

[@bonniekaye]

Such beautiful scenery! Love it! Thank you for sharing! :)

[@dunhill1]

Cow on a stick? That's udderly ridiculous!

[@karenlindsey5988]

Adam the Woo! I've been watching u every single day for a year now!

[@TheDailyWoo]

thanks so much Karen

[@dedebones1967]

TheDailyWoo , I love Sammy Hagar

[@TheDailyWoo]

That pesky pebble

[@MrJgp2012]

Who laughed when Adam tripped? Adam, I know it was an accident, but your physical humor always makes me laugh. Of course very glad you did not hurt yourself. Enjoyed the vlog.

[@lazycatz37]

MrJgp2012 I didn't, but I did cringe a bit when he was walking on those slick rocks though and stepping on those ants! Lol

[@petesenrab5691]

TheDailyWoo that pebble had it in for ya! Dang pebbles😂. Thanks Adam safe travels

[@dave1135]

TheDailyWoo or Adam, at 2:28, instead of a thermal detonator, it looks more to me like the death star. safe travels, buddy. :)

[@squinkque]

At night when the vlogging is done, he puts on his cat mask & has some fun.

[@Esther87416]

If you decide to check out the upper corner of Tennessee that border Virginia, and north Carolina you should visit Erwin tn and go to "the beauty spot" you will need a car or walk up😉 if you need a ride up the mountain im free 😛

[@Esther87416]

Btw near that area is a covered bridge

[@dscottfr]

The Bridges of Madison County - movie. I loved the stone bridge. Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Nothing can compare to a babbling brook with clear clean water and all the green trees plus the stone bridge. It's places like that that transport me right into the throne room of God. Love it. Thank you Adam.

[@dianacrane7925]

Lovely part of the country! I spent a few months there several years ago and it was nice to see it again. Thanks for sharing.

[@odinvonzero]

Years ago, I visited Aiken SC when my mother lived there. The famous landmark is the intersection of Whiskey Road & Easy Street. there's also a wall built by Refrigerator Perry and his brothers.

[@ShelleeGraham]

What a gorgeous stone bridge from 1820 out in the woods, with a stream running through. The covered bridge was very nice as well. Two places most people would not see in South Carolina. Fun vlog here, Thank you, Adam.

[@easternjohnny]

i just tumbled to my knees yesterday on green moss on concrete, extant means still existing, pennsylvania has i think twelve existing covered bridges, one in clinton county, then knoebles has one well two a walk covered bridge and one that goes over to the camp grounds, not sure where the rest is but there is a covered bridge tour sometime in PA, but hopefully its not over you can go on bus and go around the state... interesting today keep things rolling on down the highway... roll on 6 wheeler roll on

[@TheDailyWoo]

that moss is very deceiving thats for sure

[@easternjohnny]

definitely

[@mafiaman485]

Adam I got something to show you win you come back to south Carolina old grave yard

[@scedge]

Thanks for the vlogs Adam. My wife and I visited the covered bridge and the stone bridge when we stayed in that area for our anniversary back in October. Beautiful place. Thanks for featuring them today. I only wish you could have traveled a little more west up 95.

[@LadyDragonsblood]

I am here again, on April 30th, 2018! Still enjoying the older journeys just as much as the new ones!

[@WickedWonder1979]

I thought I was the only one with a love of rest areas, I just love stopping and seeing the visitors' centers and checking out the vending machines (I usually head for V8- an old family favorite). Hope your week is a good one!

[@Cindy7777777]

Campbell's Covered bridge is an awesome and peaceful place. If you walk around, you can see remnants or the old mill. Hopefully they'll restore the bridge!!! Cool vlog!!! TFS!!!

[@carolinaeric8500]

I just went here a few months ago and I am happy to report that the bridge is in great condition. Awesome that Adam went here, I think it's a really cool and peaceful place

[@daradiant1]

WELCOME TO THE PALMETTO STATE ADAM THE WOO!!! ❤❤❤

[@arthurc1971]

Have you been to the twin city yet? Batesburg-Leesville SC, once two towns each with their own downtowns and main streets. Now its one town. There is a robot on a dirt road in the country that once lit up and the arms moved...it was massive. Its still there if you are daring enough to find it. People drove from all over the state to see it back in the 60s and 70s. Lots of history in Leesville which is very old. Great video.

[@86supra420]

Recently on a trip to NYC I got stuck in some bad weather and my flight was cancelled, and I needed to be there within about 24 hours. The closest I could get to NYC on a plane was Columbia, SC, so I took a flight there and then a 16 hour train to NYC. Gotta say, I felt a bit like Adam the Woo as I traveled along the railroad exploring the east coast. Love your stuff Adam!!

[@TampaJay]

It's my Birthday! And the first thing I want to do is watch TDW! Awesome vlog Adam! On my way to Orlando

[@lazycatz37]

Tampa Jay Happy Birthday!

[@TheDailyWoo]

happy birthday Jay

[@firemedic2816]

Happy Birthday Sir

[@tiggerroo8838]

Tampa Jay then u have a shit life Jay:D jk

[@KLEARSKITHEKREEPER]

Tampa Jay hbd!

[@MobileInstinct]

Hey Adam, I'm currently exploring Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Good to see most of everything is still here after the fires! Hope you make it out this way.

[@shilothepup9357]

Unfortunately the fires only destroyed some of the BEST things about the area and not the overpriced gaudy junk that they now call "Downtown". it was a gorgeous/wonderful place in 1973 when I was there as a 15 year old. I returned at 57 and swore I'd not go back, but that only lasted a year as my son wanted some of the Old Smokey moonshine. Had a fun time (sarcasim) finding a parking spot at $10. Had 30 minutes to find the shop (end of town), but got a case. That's heavy stuff when you're toting on your lap in a wheelchair!. Did get to help a newly married couple who's car broke down though; and got them a new battery at PF Walmart and they did the Camp Wally World that night as hotel rooms were at $300 a night. THAT is why I won't stay there either. Hope you enjoy yourself and hoping the "Alamo" restaurant gets rebuilt...it was an excellent place to eat.

[@b103206]

You passed through my neck of the woods today. Hate I missed you. Western NC is awesome though. So many great places to visit. Take your time and have a great time.

[@TheTWhite]

Not sure if you would want to try some solid rollercoasters in NC, Carowinds at the SC/NC border is the place to go. There are a lot of historic markers and things to do all across North Carolina so have fun! I always enjoy your travels Adam! Thank you for your second channel, the daily vlog channel.

[@daradiant1]

Trent White Yes Adam! Go hit up Carowinds!!

[@BrendanTheGent]

Trent White im in troutman, nc so im only 45 minutes away from there. if i pass by i aleays need,to stop at cabelas

[@TheTWhite]

Grew up right there in Statesville/Troutman/Mooresville! Love NC!!

[@BrendanTheGent]

Trent White oh perfect! yeah i enjoy it here

[@Eltonmorris]

Born and raised in Rock Hill SC. Now I'm in Greenville SC. Loved going to Carowinds as a kid!

[@Idolmakercat]

Thank you for taking us along. Very nice video today. I hope you make it to Marshall North Carolina. This is a beautiful place to see.

[@Hoonozit]

Good ol Zesto Ice Cream. Been there many, many times. Riding bikes in the nineteen-seventies. It bugged me that they ditched the huge ice cream cone when they remodeled in the nineteen-nineties. I moved away, I'm pleased to see that they put one back up.

[@sydneyadams4758]

Another beautiful vlog. I love that region of the country, especially the mountains. Don't rush north too quickly....lots of storms across our middle states, rain and tornadoes. Wishing you well~

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

keep your eyes peeled as you travel through North Carolina in the next few days for the ever elusive, maybe even more elusive than Big the Foot, Nature boy, RIC Flair.. Will we get a Woo meets "Woooooooo" moment in Charlotte?!

[@TheDailyWoo]

+Daze with Jordan the Lion one day I want him to do my intro . Completely not related but would be amazing

[@katiekepka9090]

TheDailyWoo Hey Adam my name is Katie and I love love your Videos, any who for your word (Extant) which means {easp.of a document) that's still in existence or surviving. Here's an example sentence A celebrated author who is Generally regarded as America' Greatest novelist extant. 2nd example When people envisage the future, they Often base their predictions on the Assumption that extant trends will Continue indefinitely. I've looked up the word 4 u on An app called Merriam- Webster. p.s. Have you've considered your self as a comedian?

[@elflvr04]

Daze with Jordan the Lion This would be so awesome! I think The Nature Boy is over here in the west though. Him doing the opening to TDW would blow my mind though :) I am native of Raleigh ;)

[@sarakeith5480]

Love these older covered bridges!! You always brighten my day with happy memories!! I love South Carolina! Thanks for sharing your adventures!! Good to see North Carolina!! I maybe a northern but I love the south!! See you tomorrow my favorite vlogger!!

[@csact]

Glad you got to cruse by the Poinsett and Cambell bridge's we were so happy you crused through our neck of the woods. Chris Sarah and Amelia and CJ. #yeahthatgreenville

[@foreversmiles710]

Venture up to Ashtabula County Ohio. We have the most covered bridges in the United States! It's truly a sight to see.

[@MikeAbe100]

I've been to NC 4 years recently and SC 1 year when I was very, very, very, very young!!

[@MsWDWFAN1]

Love that you mentioned Sammy Hagar. I'm a huge fan of his music. Loved him when he was part of Van Halen. Very talented song writer and singer. Looking forward to seeing your adventures in North Carolina. I have family in Black Mountain near Asheville.

[@Lurker1979]

I lived in Charleston South Carolina when I was very young. Dad was in the Navy. Fun seeing the state.

[@raquelwatson9541]

Hi Adam! Raquel from Chicago here!!! Just letting you know I watch you everyday even when I'm out of town. No matter what, Adam the woo is on my priority list!! Take care.

[@sarahconklin320]

I grew up riding around n the back of a pick up truck and I'm obviously still here to talk about it. Am I the only one who is so glad I grew up in a time before electronics(video games and cell phones mainly) took over? HOWEVER let me say how greatful I am for the internet and video cameras so Adam the Woo can share his adventures with us!

[@plr4plr]

A few random things strung together... that Kenworth tractor (attached to the UPS trailer) is a nice ride. My brother sold big rigs like those (Peterbilt and Kenworth mostly) before he started his own landscape business. There is good money in the sales end of them. Also, you're so right about getting off the beaten path. When I and my wife were in the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge area in March we went all over the place. In the Smokey's, and into some valleys where we found a local cemetery from the 1780's. We stopped as some of the monument types headstones were just spectacular to see. Many were Confederate era soldiers. It was actually a private one as you had to have roots in the area and only after approval could you be buried there. We took some pictures but didn't stay long as there was a caretaker home on the grounds and we didn't want to be disrespectful. Plus stay away from the midwest area. WI, IL etc. It's rainy and flipping cold! I feel like it's London in winter right now. I don't know if we will warm until sometime in June. Also when we went to Tennesee we did see a lot of people with RV's doing about 60mph. Seems a bit more stable with a higher profile vehicle. Plus if you're going to ride in the back of a pickup make it a Ford. Not a cheap Toyota like that. And before anyone complains my Ford was still on the road after many of my friend's other trucks went the way of the junkyard. Safe travels sir!

[@candlesbyalexandria]

the covered bridge reminded me of that movie ...with Clint and Meryl!

[@Rachel1976able]

candlesbyalexandria The bridges of Madison County. I was thinking the same thing.

[@tmwphoto]

If you're continuing towards the NC mountains be sure to check out the town of Brevard and visit Looking Glass Falls. or you could visit the NC Transportation Museum in the town of Spencer. They have a large train collection in a round house.

[@LegendKiller1fan]

6:33 "If a Vending Machine commits a crime, they put it behind bars." That made me die laughing. Good one Adam.

[@dougeastman]

If it coincides with your route, the Blue Ridge Parkway has amazing scenery. Nice campsites to pull into along the way.

[@cindygaray127]

Ah, you were in my neck of the woods. I will have to visit both bridges soon. Thanks for sharing.

[@goolizap]

Man, you're the only vlogger that i watch who actually seems to love what he does. Love your videos! I am watching your videos and they are helping me and my fiancee plan our honeymoon road trip! Thank you!!

[@lukeskywalker1242]

12:32 you quoted my father.. the force is strong in you and your fans may the force be with you Adam.

[@pamelabrida945]

I just love old bridges, especially old covered bridges! Thanks for the side trip into America's past. I hope you found your chips!

[@joniflanakingriffin3541]

Welcome to North Carolina! Have fun and enjoy your visit!

[@stormyhaze26]

Covered bridges & their surrounding scenery so....majestic. :D It reminded me of a covered bridge in North Blenheim, NY. I went there with my cousin years before it was destroyed in a flood in 2011. It looked like the one you walked on with the old boards and looking through the cracks to see the creek/river below. It was the longest single span wooden bridge in the world according to what I found on Google & Wikipedia. My cousin's hubby carved our names into that bridge. Pretty sad to think that it's gone now.

[@randomnobody2011]

As a native North Carolinian, welcome to our lovely State!! If you're on I-26, I hope you stop in Asheville and see some sites. Maybe a Biltmore House tour? Jacob the Carpetbagger went west of there to the old closed down Ghost Town In The Sky once, I think... Lots to see and do in western NC for sure. Enjoy your time here!

[@tiffanyinnc8247]

Charles Smith Adam went to Ghost Town a long time ago. Check his older videos.

[@kerbear7307]

I live right outside of Rock Hill, SC and never knew about those Star Wars sculptures. Looks like I got to go and take a day trip.

[@TheTiaKeas]

Extant means existing. Love the places that you take us! Thank-you..

Can't thank you enough for sharing all of your adventures!!!

[@patigiddens1314]

I love these places you find!!! Loved the bridges, beautiful. Thanks Adam, got my WOO FIX FOR THE DAY!!!!!!!! Whoop, drive safe out there.😀😀😀

[@ericfarrar1347]

The artwork on the visitors center is a eagle carrying a palmetto tree with a gull at one end and a gamecock on the other (all SC state symbols).

[@MarkTheLostTraveler]

Love it when you travel through small towns. Those are the best places to see. I looked up what EXTANT means.... still in existence; surviving....

[@mdkamber714]

Love both of those bridges. Have a great day, Adam!

[@jimmyfizzy]

Adam, When and if you get to West Virginia stop in Huntington, Camden Park, Has a lot of history. It's had new life in the past few years. I think you'll enjoy it and we will in your way of presenting it

[@RuthyD]

Right by me! Very cool! I think SC is shaped like a slice of pizza that wasn't cut all the way through so it ripped when you grabbed the slice. 😀

[@daradiant1]

Ruthy D Yes! My little state does shape like that! 😁

[@doc2517]

I once drove for the trucking company you are parked beside,MXI.

[@leeusness]

The bridge was there before the Smiths were there. The Mill was built by my grandfather as well as the homestead there just beyond the mill. My grandfather kept the bridge up and going for years, so without them, the bridge would have fallen a long time ago. You can visit his mill at some amusement park out west.

[@TheDailyWoo]

thanks for the info, very interesting place.

[@TheBaldr]

Judging from the direction Adam is driving, I smell The Carpetbagger making an appearance in videos very soon. Usually I'm living in Western NC, but this year I decided to get out and live on the other side of the world for a year :( Come visit us in Japan!

[@fixedgearfever69]

TheBaldr Carpetbagger kinda looks like a old covered bridge.

[@lidsman2221]

Wish I had known you were coming to the Columbia area. You passed the exit I take to get to my house. Would have loved to have met you. Glad you enjoyed my home state.

[@tonyagesek3306]

So glad to find this video and the one did of the Springs Park in SC, I live not far from that one. You should come back and check out Hanging Rock and 40 acre Rock!

[@jdtractorman7445]

Both bridges are pretty cool. They both look very peaceful with the streams running under them.

[@RobertsandThenSome]

It's so cool to see our "neck of the woods" on your trip! You literally drive 5 min from our house.

[@Merc-vv3de]

Good day to you sir, happy to see you didn't take a nasty tumble on the bridge! You have the reflexes of a cat!

[@jasethehoo]

good morning mr woo the force is strong in this vlog

[@wesley9857]

Be cool if you went to the Biltmore House in Asheville NC, the biggest house in America! Place is massive with the property, vineyards, trails, restaurants, spas, lodging etc... WORTH IT BUDDY

[@DavrosVonSkaro]

If vending machines don't want to end up behind bars then they should drop that Snickers bar instead of playing the "Oh it's stuck" game. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

[@stuart9534803]

at 3:00 you were driving through my hometown of Irmo. You drove past the house I grew up in, It was right beside I-26.

[@andypage9]

Welcome to North Carolina! Can't wait t see where you go in my home state.

[@BrendanTheGent]

if you find yourself on 77 in north Carolina remember that i would love to show you around. Troutman, NC from movie locations to other oddities

[@blakem9109]

North Carolina home of the Carpetbagger, and driving toward the great smoky mountains also.

[@belfastsoul8863]

Good morning Adam, greetings from Ireland or as we call it, "Gods own country". South Carolina looks beautiful very historic in places, can't wait to see what the North has instore for us, safe journey my friend.

[@ko4gpa]

Thank you for hitting Greenville. Wish you would have seen more of it.

[@Toppslawncare]

wow! Adam, you were right near my work off Frink street. I work in Cayce, SC. Ive been following you for a long time . keep up the good work. thc

[@jpwhiddon]

Thanks Adam for this video vlog. I loved seeing the old bridges, esp. the stone one.

[@coryfabert2613]

Love the Sammy Hagar shout out! We were in Cabo for his Birthday Bash last year.

[@nicoleonyx9186]

I hope that if the bridge does start deteriorating significantly that someone tries to restore it or something. Covered bridges are so few and far between!

[@TheDailyWoo]

I hope so too

[@firemedic2816]

Go to Indiana they have a Covered Bridge Fest...It's awesome....Adam should know that

[@neeneec5394]

off the top of my head ... one in Cincinnati, Ohio has been closed off for decades yet still remains. last I recall crossing it was in the 70's. and I seen one in western nc.. one or two. they go into a residential area.. not sure if usable or not.

[@neeneec5394]

there's another outside of Cincinnati about 15 miles north... its closed as well but still there. its in a country area. I just hope they're never torn down. its a neat aspect of our history.

[@stevenkreiss2113]

Pennsylvania has a number of covered bridges.

[@Kickinpony66]

Two very cool bridges! We don't have any covered bridges in Missouri, and we certainly don't have any from the 1820's.

[@abbyiswatching2046]

I have relatives not far from there, and you'll be happy to know they did some refurbishment on Campbell's bridge.

[@SomewhereInIndiana1816]

Beautiful covered bridge! Believe it or not, there are still covered bridges in Indiana too...Very cool!

[@mommycalah]

you missed Greenville!! our home town!! wonderful city btw Adam! if you get a chance to come back though, make sure you spend some time in G'ville! Love what you do!

[@ericbunksvintagesportsman6311]

I -26 and 77 beautiful highways love those areas !

[@mrkwrkp]

I would have liked to walked around where you went today! it's a bit like the Yorkshire dales, Where you can see old buildings from the past. But I enjoyed watching your Vlog and can't wait for the next Awesome Vlog.

[@ck2d]

There's a covered bridge a couple miles from my house. It's a great spot to swim in the river.

[@Joshg247]

Fantastic ending to a vlog. Theres nothing quite like using the lavatory with a cat mask on. Love it.

[@suprafahrer6453]

Man Adam, you should've stopped by Greenville downtown awesome place. Use to live in Spartanburg S.C. for a number of years. I bet that Large Marge had a struggle getting up the mountains there on I-26! Use to drive up there weekly. Family in Asheville and all.

[@TheSWolfe]

Saw Hagar play during his "Red" tour @ the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown, WV. We were forever making fun of his "I Can't Drive 55" song, saying it was because his car wouldn't go that fast.

[@CarmenandBrian]

I really enjoyed this! I live primarily in NC, but sometimes in SC. I saw at least 2 things on this vlog I had never heard of. :)

[@doc2517]

Since you are heading that way maybe you could stop in Elizabethon, Tn. and check their covered bridge or maybe down to Mt. Airy, Ga. and see the "pet rock prison" !

[@tgawauntgail7928]

Adam, you and your Woovians are hilarious. I get such a kick out of reading all the comments after I watch the vlog. Especially the punny ones.

[@candysantillo3325]

Beautiful territory Thank you for sharing

[@williamsaunders5905]

Welcome to N.C. Woo. Must be a coincidence that thought I saw Large Marge on I-40 a few days ago. You should visit the N.C. Zoo in Asheboro very cool spot.

[@charissatroup5611]

if you ever get up to maritime Canada, there are lots of covered bridges. one in New Brunswick is over 1000 feet long.

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Hey Adam if you read this there is a classic car show May 18-21 in Ocean City, Maryland! I will be going. It's called Cruisin OC!
