A Slice of Ohio Part 1: Indian Lake - Summer2020 Episode 27.1

[@forry100]

Anyone that stops by Cranberries at Indian Lake, have a drink in honor of Jimmy and let them know you found them via Traveling Robert. His employees and really close friends are really missing him now that the season is opening back up. I only was friends with Jimmy for a short time and I know I miss him and regret that I did not get back over when he asked me too.

[@LuckyDawgProductionsModerator]

Jim, I just checked and yes, the comments during the premiere are still there. Very nice to remember and honor Jimmy this way.

[@debbiewerner7124]

So very sorry about the loss of your friend Jimmy. 💔 But what fun you guys had on the lake. Memories that will last. ❤

[@WarshMeh]

This video is awesome and felt like a visit back home. I used to live a cross from the Tilton Hilton. Can't wait to visit. Great video

[@Gayle45]

Enjoyed this! I’m an Acheson, grew up in Ohio, and visited Acheson Resort many times. Also remember visiting Russells Point amusement park!

[@Beverly-e4z]

This video came up on my feed. Probably because of the tornadoes that devastated this area. Can't believe I never heard of the lake being raised in southern Ohio with parents who were boating enthusiast. They went to Lake Erie.

[@TravelingBuckeyes]

Thank you again for allowing us to be a part of your visit to Ohio! We had so much fun with you, Jim, Barb, Joe and Jimmy. So many laughs!! We also want to thank you for your memorial to Jimmy.

[@aprilwilliams6889]

This is great! My dad and nephew are fishing in 2 different clips on this video. Love to see Indian Lake getting some promotion.

[@forry100]

So very cool.

Grew up around Indian Lake..Great place.🇺🇸🇺🇸

We enjoyed watching this video. Loved the car/boat. Our hearts broke for Jimmy, his family and friends.

[@claytonfite3197]

Hi Robert! I do enjoy watching your trips through Ohio. I've been to many of these places through my work. Hocking Hills is our favorite place. My wife and I got married at Old mans Haven in Hocking Hills. I will be looking forward to your next episodes as always cya on the road

Good one Robert. We are from Ohio and had no idea how beautiful Indian Lake area is. We will check it out this year. Great job on all your videos. Thanks and keep them coming.

And my heart goes out to Jimmy and his family, I'm glad I got the chance to meet him, he'll truly be missed

[@Captainelduke]

Rest in peace Jimmy. Thank you for another great video Traveling Robert.

[@KristoferOlsson]

I think this was the episode the suprised me the most in Summer 2020. In a good way. So much feelgood, and sorry for your friend. Love the old boats.

[@patriciabuchanan67]

I enjoyed the video Robert, especially the drone footage you took. My condolences for the loss of your friend Robert, I know you are thankful for the memories. Safe travels, and God Bless!

[@MICHELLE-gu2qc]

Excellent video Robert from amazing drone shots of the lake to stunning sunsets and crazy car/boats. Indian lake looks stunning and unique area. I am so sorry for the passing of your friend Jim.

[@reelhappytravellers2691]

Our happiest moments as travellers always seem to come when we stumble upon one video like yours..... Thank you so much for sharing with us!!!!!

[@mrpatricksr322]

Thanks for the memories. Lived in NW Ohio for 44 years and camped at Indian Lake, remember going to all the rides at Amusement Park when I was younger and the bridge. Attended Lakeview School for 2 years. Boated across that lake many times. Great video!

[@paname18]

It's always a pleasure to discover the US thanks to your videos ... when I can leave France, I will make a trip to you and I will be inspired by your videos to discover places. Merci 🇫🇷

Loved the unique boat rides on the gorgeous Indian Lake. So sorry for the loss of your friend. Our good friends always live on in our hearts. Looking forward to the rest of Ohio. The drone footage was awesome as well.

Happy Easter! That was a wonderful episode! I'm glad that you had great times with your friend Jim and family friends. And what a beautiful part of our country to visit and enjoy the history, scenic areas, restaurants/cafes, and small gatherings-very nice!💕

[@SoldiersDad]

We are on our way to Ohio on Thursday. We visit Amish County in Holmes County Ohio. It might be the most scenic county in Ohio. We also will visit the Air Force Museum in Dayton and the most beautiful small town in Ohio Marietta.

[@susanbeth74]

I grew up in both West Virginia and Ohio near Marietta, Ohio. Makes sure to walk 5th street to see the brick streets and historic homes. It is one of the prettiest towns! Hope you enjoy!

When you are at the Air Force museum look up Joe’s pizza just around the corner from there, one of the best around.....I drive 20+ minutes to pick one up!

Hello Traveling Robert😊😊🎸🎸🎵🎵, I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend Jimmy. Great guy. Indian Lake is SPECTACULAR! WOW! Enjoyed watching those boat rides across the lake, and how about that cool car that you were in...on the water😊😊! Robert, this was an OUTSTANDING video! I'm looking forward to the next Ohio video, especially Hocking Hills.

[@cathlynpollom2545]

I really enjoyed learning your family story. Cuban people traditionally seem to be very close to their families. So now I can see why you always seemed to be so much happier around Ile. I did not know you were married. Lol but I understand better. There seems to be some correlations between you and Desi Arnez. Storytelling film and singing obviously give you joy. I do like your singing too. Well I wish you great success and continued good luck and happiness. 👍🍀

[@atravelingtaco7446]

This was one of your most interesting and unique episodes. That car boat was something else!

Hi Robert ! Happy Easter ! I'm george from Hungary .I lived in Daytona beach and New York a few years ago . I really like your videos.

[@patireland9408]

Like the AG scenes. Quite an operation. Yes, an in-depth study of family farming and their challenges would be an interesting study. The tee shirt printing was interesting to see as well. Looking forward to your next video.

[@WanderingWagners]

Glad you had a great time in our home state of Ohio, Indian lake is great for boats but not much else haha we are local to Port Clinton/Marblehead.

The man the myth the legend traveling Robert

[@DeafRVTraveler]

Hi Robert. The lake in Ohio is phenomenal. I love to see the fact the water are so calm and all the boats even the boat/car was pretty awesome. I can’t to see the second part of Ohio. We plan to go to Indiana in the fall so that’s so more option to visit depending on our timeframes. I am so sorry to hear about your friend Jimmy. Our thoughts to his friends and families. As always, thank you for having us on the road with you and off to the next one! 🤟🏻😁🤟🏻

We were in Florida took a 9-day vacation had a opportunity to take the pontoon boat out enjoyed it . That is a cool looking boat you guys were on. Pontoon boats are nice the one you guys on was a little faster. Man the little car boat really cool.

So glad you enjoy our state so much. There is Soooooo much more to see. Newark Earthworks, Flint Ridge, Windy 9, Pathfinder Scenic Routes. Next time you're here, give me a shout. The round barn reminded me of a joke. My Grandpa used to build them and always told me. "If you want to drive a city boy crazy, tell him to go in the round barn and stand in the corner." ;) Cheers Robert.

Love the round barn joke.

Ohio very awesome state to visit also same with that water and the boat you were riding on it was a great state.

[@gold-digger6579]

So cool you traveled to our area. Indian Lake very popular and you had a unique experience for sure! I got your music from iTunes and we all enjoy it. Look forward to your next video my friend!

[@Orion-fp4km]

It looks like you had a lot of Fun Robert!

[@Yawndave]

Ahoy Robert! That amphibious car looks fantastic! The California Auto Museum used to have Amphicar ride day where you could go for a spin on the Sacramento River. Those spacial edition T-shirts look pretty cool--looking forward to getting one when they go on sale. Happy Trails!

[@itsgoudaful]

Your editing skills are excellent. Thank you

[@bchlvrbob]

What a great video, and an honor to your friend. I grew up near a large lake in NC and there were a couple amphicars there. Seems they were not around long and there was a story about one sinking (maybe untrue), but, they are a great conversation piece.

[@modeladenny1218]

What surprises me about the Amphicars is few were made yet even in our small central Illinois town there were two regularly at the river boat dock. My brother and I got to ride in a red one for a short time on the Illinois River.

[@markshelhart8338]

Great video as ever. They did an episode on the car show Fantomworks about restoring an Amphicar and making it water worthy, you wouldn't believe the amount of work and detail involved. So sorry to hear about the loss of the friend, life can be so short, he looked like he knew how to enjoy it and make the most of it with the time he had.

[@Arty_left]

I lived in Springfield for 5 years... (45 minutes south of Bellfontaine (my sister lives there)... never knew of Indian lake!! Lol !! Nice place !!

[@forry100]

We were on 68 going by/through Springfield otherwise Robert would have noted it. Took 68 to almost Yellow Springs, then East into Clifton. We knew about Indian Lake forever, but about 15yrs ago found Clifton by accident when we took 72 to Cedarville. So much in Ohio that even us who live or have lived miss it. But it seems that way a lot of places, always surprised when we are talking to a local about something nearby and they tell us never heard of that place before or never been there.

[@Gforce1956]

[@sarjim4381]

My family used to live in Lakeview in the 60's, only a couple miles from the lake. We used to go over to what was then Sandy Beach Amusement Park. It had a big wood coaster and a lot of rides, but the park had really started to deteriorate by the mid-60's. It got to be a hangout for motorcycle gangs and what were called "Juvenile Delinquents" in those days. Lots of fights would break out on weekends, especially on holiday weekends. The company that owned the place hired just about every off-duty deputy sheriff within 50 miles for holiday weekends, and the state highway patrol hauled away all those arrested for fighting to jail in school busses. I think they out up the statue of the Virgin Mary to show families it was safe and peaceful there again. It didn't work, and I think the park closed up for good sometime in the 70's. I haven't been back there since maybe 1968, and the only thing I recognize is the bridge. It's seems like a beautiful place today. That's just terrible about Jimmy. Sometimes it seems like those with the most to live for get taken way too early.
