Thomasville, Ga: Freemasons, Mansions & Hidden Vaults

[@Anna-si1lt]

As someone born and raised in Thomasville, it’s so exiting to see people come to our little town and become so interested and invested in what is our boring everyday. Watching this has reminded me how lucky I am and appreciate my home!

[@haleyshank8569]

Heehee that's how friendly and welcoming Thomasville is, even the courthouse is wide open.

[@HumbleRoad]

Good Lord, can you write! And shoot! And the smarminess just warms my heart. Whenever I leave an elevator, I turn and say "let's keep in touch…" to the thin-lipped person who said nothing during the ride.

[@marianjacobs5597]

Casey once again you have surpassed your self with this wonderful post, I don't know how people can blather on about modern architecture it all seems too cold to me and I don't think the artisans are here anymore mores the pity. Thank you

[@CaseyRoman]

People planted their legacy in these old houses. Today...they hang fake sliding barn doors.

[@marianjacobs5597]

@@CaseyRoman Your right about that, that is why I so enjoy your post.

[@highlandscot5567]

It's great to see a woman who enjoys historic buildings and architecture as much as I do. I'm slightly disappointed, however, that you were in Thomasville at the same time as I was, and you never said "hi"!!! I spent 3 months there in my vintage van. Rock on.

[@susiebutler2566]

Casey, Your video on Thomasville was wonderful. I was born there and raised nearby. One of the houses you showed on Dawson Street belonged to my aunt and uncle. It is a beautiful town, and you should come back when you get a chance. You have a wonderful gift for storytelling.

[@CaseyRoman]

Susie I was in awe of your family's hometown. I did not have enough time to get to all of it and will absolutely circle back in the future!

[@Adiscretefirm]

Glad you checked out Thomasville, I spent 30 years a few miles down the road in Tallahassee, it's a great Southern town.

[@CaseyRoman]

Absolutely LOVELY

[@RunsWithKnives]

I once rented a old apartment in Maine that once was owned by the school system, I found a door that I didn't know where it went too but I opened it and found in the attic area there was a tin ceiling like the one in that building. A little searching at the town office and the historical society and I found that it was originally owned by the local Mason's. Nice video Casey, you're a natural storyteller.

[@CaseyRoman]

Oh I'd love to see pictures of that!!

[@Da09ziah]

Born and raised in Thomasville,Ga I just learned alot, thanks.

[@cbare64]

Love that you love my small town. Thomasville is a great place to live and grow a family.

[@bcroft68bc]

If you’re ever in Thomasville again, I advise you to go to Billiard Academy and get some of their Chili Dogs. You won’t be disappointed. People in Thomasville just call it “The pool hall”.

[@ellencha5975]

I love that you are showing that the east coast has things to do and see. I get tired of everything being on the west Coast.

[@beeceestory]

My mother-in-law used to live there. She has since passed away but Thomasville GA is by far a little hidden jewel. Love your videos. I look forward to every one.

[@jsheffie333]

You are totally killing it right now. I always learn something when I watch your stuff.

[@robertschilling3308]

Excellent video work. And...editing. Your background helps immensely. That's one photographer paying homage to another. Keep up your work. It's appreciated. Btw...nice sideboob! ☺😛

You're a gal after my own heart! I hate no trespassing signs. I always want to know what's there. If you ever make it out to my neck of the woods, California's Central Coast, visit Hearst Castle.

[@paulaarchuleta8684]

Enjoyed your tours of the south, sassy Casey. Nice news pack, learn something everyday.

[@cebaker5671]

I'm jealous! There you are sweating up a storm running around the grand architecture of the South while I'm up here in Canada amongst the snow piles and ice. Love your tours. Right up my alley. Can't wait for the next. Thank you for sharing and educating.

[@fastgurrrl]

Getting better and better. So cool to see. Ty for going in that freemason building! Glad to see you enjoying yourself.

[@amanavannoplan]

Haha! Did I hear use of the epithet "Ginger Spinster" somewhere? The term 'spinster' was once reserved for single women aged between 23 and 26; after turning 26 you'd be reclassified as a 'thornback'. To be taken as required, or not at all...

[@BurlapandLight]

Love this little town. SO much beauty and plus I have family there!

[@EquestrianEdwards]

Somebody with a passion for what they do? This is so rare to find. Great tour.

If I didn't get so much hate mail after posting those I'd probably do them. But who the hell wants to get hate mail when they are out doing THIS!

[@greeneyedcatwink]

Wow, had no idea about places like this, having been a west coast girl most of my life! I absolutely LOVE these beautiful buildings and cute town. Thanks for bringing some joy into my day and another thing to add to my my list of things to do and places to go some day. This is becoming my new fav habit...Casey, coffee and laughter in the morning.

[@eijan912]

This may be skipping ahead just a bit, but if you find yourself along the coast in California (it's a little known place, most people have never heard of it; Cal-eh-forn-ya) I think you'd really like the Hearst Castle. If you're unfamiliar, Hearst was a ridiculously wealthy newspaper-er/publisher way back in the way backs. There are zebras on the property and the house (castle) is absolutely stunning. You'll feel all kinds of poor when you leave, but it's a fantastic piece of architecture.

[@patriciaburr4826]

OMG Those ceilings!!!! I just love them! Definitely putting Thomasville GA on my to do list once I head north on my maiden voyage. Can't thank you enough for this one..it was awesome.

[@CaseyRoman]

[@sportynat8702]

You definitely are giving me an appreciation of southern older buildings' craftmanship! I got a good laugh about the "thin-lipped" comment. Too bad you had to rush out of this town. I would have loved to see more. Keep up the great vlogs!

[@davehester7349]

Love those blue eyes and red hair...the heck with the tour.

[@roannathephoenix8561]

You should build PR videos/commercials for each of the towns you visit because you're fantastic for creating interest in each place you have visited. I know I've added some to my bucket list. That & selling your photos to the Chamber of commerce for tourist postcards could fund your trip.

[@stroutstergmail]

I saw a ceiling like that while working for a painter in South Florida. Instead of tile it was made entirely of mahogany. Crazy money.

Just so you know the Church is not in it's original location. As a local I know where houses that no one else knows of. They are private. Come to the Victorian Christmas. Horse and buggy ride on the cobblestone is amazing. That building was the court house until 5 years ago after that it got renovated.
