Video summary
The video documents a camping trip taken by Laura S Walker State Park featuring a Coleman pop-up camper and their dog, Bruno, as they travel to Georgia for an extended stay. Upon arrival at the campsite on the lake, the narrator sets up the vehicle despite windy conditions, noting that while it is hot outside in the high 80s, the air conditioning keeps the interior comfortably cool around 76 degrees Fahrenheit. The couple enjoys their first evening by setting out lanterns and a solar-powered bug light to enjoy the breeze on the water, though they acknowledge the spot lacks significant shade. They also introduce Monkeyy, who is seen enjoying her coffee from a new chair provided with an excellent view of the lake, while Bruno gets some well-deserved rest after their long drive.
On Saturday morning, despite a drop in temperature requiring sleeping bags and dealing with condensation dripping inside due to the AC running on low, they explore Waycross, Georgia, focusing heavily on its rich history. The narrator visits the historic CC McCrae City Auditorium, where Elvis Presley performed his first major concert in 1956 before becoming a superstar, sharing details about other performers and local legends who attended that specific show. They also inspect two abandoned theaters: the Lyric Theater, which is boarded up with signs of roof collapse but still listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the Ritz Theater, an Art Deco masterpiece originally built in 1923 that has been repurposed for community theater use since the late 70s. Additionally, they tour other significant local landmarks including the historic City Hall, the Bun Building—a reinforced concrete structure from 1912—and a beautiful old house currently listed for sale after being damaged by fire.
The day's activities continue with a visit to "Beastro on the Go," a restaurant run by an inspiring 82-year-old woman who employs her own grandkids and donates school supplies to children in need, highlighting the strong community spirit of the area. Later that afternoon, they head out for fishing where Monkeyy successfully catches a large softshell turtle weighing nearly nine pounds using a cheap rod bought at Walmart. The adventure takes an unexpected turn when another boat nearby begins sinking rapidly due to water filling its hull; fortunately, the owner returns and manages to pump it dry just in time before towing it back onto their trailer with help from locals who jump into the lake to assist.
By Sunday morning, after a successful day of exploration and rescue efforts, the narrator wraps up Part One of the trip while dealing with minor technical issues like a popped breaker caused by Bruno getting stuck under the camper cushions. The couple plans to continue their journey tomorrow, intending to make lasagna for dinner before heading home, as they anticipate stormy weather later in the week. Throughout the video, there is a recurring theme of appreciating both the natural beauty of Georgia's lakes and towns while acknowledging the importance of preserving historic architecture and supporting local communities that go above and beyond.

Hey everyone, Shaper 1000 here taking a
little trip. Um,
beautiful day out. It's not overly hot.
It's in the high 80s, but
yeah, be a good weekend to go camping.
That's what we're going to do. Heading
to Georgia. Going to take a little
camping trip.
Stick around, guys. We're going to have
some fun this weekend and part of next
week. So, uh, we got about two hours to
go. Stopped to give Bruno a break. We're
going to hit the road. Stick around.
And here we are.
All right, guys. We're going to go in
and get checked in, and I'll be back
with you when we're backing into our
spot.
Heat. Heat.
Okay, guys. Pretty well set up. Got to
put the door down and
the bunk things
and uh
we'll get this situated. All right, I
got to go cool down. Sneak peek of our
view. Okay, guys. Hang on. Okay, guys.
So,
man, I'm going have to replace this
battery.
Monkeyy's eating.
>> Yep. She cheated.
>> Why?
>> She went and went to KFC. I told her I
built a fire over there in the
fireplace.
Cook her something to eat.
Nah, that was our plan. We just do
something quick and easy tonight. So,
here's our setup.
I'd put these way down because the wind
cuz we got It's windy, huh? Because we
are on the lake. There's Monkeyy's view
when she comes out in the morning, drink
her coffee, right, Monk?
>> Yep.
>> Did you remember coffee?
>> Yep.
>> All right,
that'll be her view.
>> Mhm.
>> She's using my new chair.
But it's 94 out here. Got it down to 89
in the camper so far, so that's good.
They pulled in about 20 minutes after
us.
We're at the old school lantern.
for tonight.
Got the bug light charging solar, so
that's good.
Uh yeah, there's not much uh shade here.
I mean, I looked at all the all the
spots, but I knew she wanted to be on
the water, and I thought I tried to get
that one, I couldn't get that one.
That's that's eight. And so, I got six.
This is six. But that's eight. Number
eight there. I thought would have made a
better view because if we get a big
camper in there, you know, the view will
be limited.
But, you know, it is what it is and it's
very very fine with me. At least she's
on the water and we are getting a
breeze. So,
very nice. Like the way they got that
fire pit. Pretty cool. All right, I'm
going to put you on the charger or
change your battery or something. And
I'll bring you guys back in a minute.
All right, stick around, guys. Check it
out, guys. Isn't it beautiful? I got a
time lapse over there running.
It is something.
Got a nice breeze. It dropped down to
82,
I think it is. It's uh 76 in the camper.
Man, I should have had that camera
sitting out here. Wow, look how pretty
that is. Hang on, guys. I'm gonna move
that camera over here.
Okay, guys. So, we got our bug light up
here and our old school lantern. That is
a 1991 lantern.
And she's got this
buck thing in there.
>> We're not sure about that.
>> No,
>> but I moved down there. The camera, the
other camera.
There it is.
because
that's just a better shot.
Some time lapsing that sunset.
Beautiful, huh? Nice lake.
Hear the locust.
Nice.
Met these people over here. They're from
Jacksonville, Florida.
It's a 42-footer. It's a 2022.
Just got it back. I had to fix some
dents and dings in it that he did
himself. He said it's a learning curve,
but that's okay cuz you know, I mean,
ours has a dent in it, too. I ain't
going to fix it cuz it's character.
Ours has a dent right there. We didn't
put it in it. But
so probably just going to leave it like
that.
But yeah, not a lot going on tonight,
guys, cuz you know, this is just moving
in day. But I got some things planned
tomorrow.
Um they're having all kinds of things
going on tomorrow. Huh.
>> Yeah, they do. But we have to go to
Walmart. We have to get our fishing
license because you know our license are
from Florida. So they should make it
like driver's license all and get all
get in all states. But so we got to pay
and get um temporary licenses so or I'd
be fishing tonight.
But yeah, it's it's nice. It did. It did
drop down to 82 out here.
>> Yeah.
>> With a 76 in the camper.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. So, yeah, that old Coleman does
well.
>> Yep. So, yeah, that's uh So,
I got these all fixed.
Um so, yeah.
I think it's supposed to storm tomorrow,
isn't it?
>> That's what they said. Yeah. Alexa said
it was going to storm today, but we hit
some rain coming up here, but just like
a couple sprinkles here and there in
like two or three spots, but it hasn't
rained here since we've been here.
So, yeah. All right, guys. I'll kick you
back on here shortly.
He's having a blast.
Any mama? Yeah, he sure is.
>> All right, guys. I'll be back. Hang
tight.
Okay, guys. Getting ready to go get my
shower with my new bag monkey bought me
cuz I used to just wrap my stuff up in a
towel
and she got me this bag. Ain't that
cool?
Oh, they mispl.
So, I'm going to go get a shower and
I'll be back with you guys.
>> That's us, huh?
>> Yeah, that's us.
>> Monkey said that's us.
>> It's a sticker. We have to stick it
somewhere.
>> Yeah. Okay, we'll stick it somewhere.
All right, guys. I'll be back with you
in a minute. Good morning, everyone. It
is 7:45 Saturday morning. Good morning.
So, yeah. Uh
got down 69 in the camper last night.
And I had to turn it down. The air
conditioner turned on low. Probably
wouldn't even need it. I had I had to
get in my sleeping bag, which is
unusual.
This is dripping here. Probably air
conditioner, so it's making things wet.
The only condensation inside the camper
was uh I see on this door here, but it's
on the outside
was just the bottom of the air
conditioner itself, which I wiped off.
That was it. So,
but man, this thing pulled awesome
yesterday. No problems, no issues.
Uh when we stopped when I did my intra,
check the bearings. cuz I can put my
hand right on them wheels and hubs that
were warm but not hot. So, it did well.
All right, guys. I think she's going to
want some coffee. So, I'm going to think
I'm going to bring out a little stove
here for her and uh so she can she can
heat up some water and have some coffee
and then we'll go to town. So, stick
around guys and I'll be back with you in
a minute. Like I said, we got to go to
Walmart. We got to get a couple things.
I got to get something so I can run a uh
a hose over to this. See, this is weird.
Look where this is at.
It's right there. And you got all this
room. Same way with that one over there.
It's more towards the front. You would
think it'd be like towards the back or
the middle. I don't know why they did
that.
Uh, I mean that would reach over to use
this, but I'm going to be able to use
one inside and outside. So, all right.
Let me uh let me get her a stove set up
here. And in our typical camping
fashion.
Yeah, it's raining.
Of course, I knew it was coming in, but
All right. Well, give us excuse to go
and check out the town, huh?
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah, we're going to go check out the
town. Are we going to check out the
town?
>> Yep, we're checking out the town.
>> All right. Okay, guys. This is a big
reason why I wanted to come into this
town of Way Cross, Georgia. Now, this is
the CC Mccrae
City Auditorium.
This is
kind of an important building,
especially for a small town like this.
Okay. Now,
February 22nd, 1956,
a musical artist performed here that
wasn't very well known. All right. So,
I'm going to read you from here what
I've got here. Okay.
There were two shows performed here. one
at 700 p.m. and one at 900 p.m.
And the ticket prices to them shows was
a dollar in advance or $1.25 at the
door.
Okay.
Now, the person that played here ended
up
being a superstar, right?
One by the name of Elvis Presley. That's
right. February 22nd, 1956. Elvis
Presley played here. And I'll read you
what I've got here. Okay. Now, other
performances that were here was uh
Elvis was part of a package tour
package that included several other
country and roots axe, the loving
brothers, Justin Tub, Mother Mabel, and
the Carter sisters, including June
Carter, which ended up being June Carter
Cash. Okay. and the Alabama Sand
Dusters. And here's some context for
you. Just days before his stop in
Wayross, Elvis had made a major national
television appearance on the Dorsy
Brothers stage show performing
Heartbreak Hotel and Blue Suede Shoes.
Just a few weeks after the way cross
concert, Heartbreak Hotel became his
first national number one hit song
propelling him into superstardom.
Now check this out. I know a lot of you
guys don't know some of these names, but
but I do, but but the old older
generation like me do. a young
9-year-old local resident named Ingram
Cecil Connor the III, who would grow up
to become the legendary musician Graham
Parsons, attended this exact Way Cross
concert and managed to get Elvis's
autograph.
And then it it goes on to talk about the
building just a little bit. The building
still stands today. As you can see, it's
on the National Register of Historic
Places as one of the few surviving
Georgia 1950s venue where Elvis
performed. So, I had to bring you here
and show you that. Um, I'm sure most
everybody's probably heard of Elvis
Presley, but let's walk up here.
Monkeyy's going to do some filming.
She's in the car with Bruno. But let's
walk up here and let's take a look at
this.
Uh,
now I think uh the name was changed has
changed since then, but there's a plaque
here.
Let me see if I can get it so you guys
can pause and read it if you want.
Okay.
And here is a very old plaque here.
I don't know if we can see in there.
Oops. Let me take you off the stand.
Maybe
salvis straight ahead there played
performed in there two shows.
Now I don't know if this would have been
ticket booths here or if the ticket
booths were as soon as you came in.
Usually these were coat check rooms.
They would check your coat for you. This
could be where you would have bought
your tickets. There's another plaque
here.
I'll let you pause and read that. But it
doesn't say anything about Elvis.
So, it is an amazing building. But I
wanted This is one of the main reasons
why I came in. Look at that place. It's
freaking absolutely huge.
I was hoping there'd be somebody in
there. Maybe we could get in.
If you YouTube it. There is another
gentleman on YouTube that has a video
up. He got to go inside. He didn't show
the outside, but
beautiful building. All right, guys.
I'll be back with you and I'll let
Monkey do her filming so I can give her
my phone so she can read what uh read to
her people about it. Okay guys, so I
like to check out some old buildings
when we get into a town like this.
And this is the second theater we have
seen
called the Lyric. Look at this old
building.
Looks like the roof may be caving in on
it.
Course it says no trespassing.
This is the old ticket booth
right there.
Can't see nothing in there. Monkey tried
the door.
Wow. What a shame.
>> Yeah. See, there's a hole.
>> Really cold. Should have brought my
drone. We could have put it up over this
building.
>> Oh, yeah. That would have been fun.
>> It's all boarded up.
Let's just
take a walk down here. Kind of back to
my YouTube roots filming abandoned
places. I'm sure it's not like
technically abandoned. Someone owns it.
Wow.
There's a lot of buildings in this town
that,
you know, nothing.
Not sure about the fate of this one.
Hopefully, it can be saved.
I mean, it would be it would take a lot
of uh
a lot of doing.
Uh I mean, really, all you got walls.
I'm sure the inside's really bad with
that roof being like that. I should have
brought my drone.
We could have put the drone up
and took a look at the roof how bad it
is.
There it is.
Monkeyy's filming, too. She had to let
Bruno.
Look at the sconces up there.
You know what they say about theaters?
They're usually haunted.
And I bet it's in bad shape inside.
Like I say, that roof's coming down,
but
wow.
Just uh
it's amazing to see this stuff.
Look like the other one they're still
using it for something, but it's an old
one, too. So, I have no way of knowing
about this place.
Well, there's ways of knowing, but
>> that's really, really neat.
I got to show you the side
around the back.
She bears back
in the car.
>> Cool, guys. Awesome.
What a shame.
I mean, you know, someone owns it and
just let it go to crap. I mean,
someone needs to save these places. Like
if you're going to own a place, at least
do something with it or sell it to
someone that will
before it gets into this condition,
you know.
Wow.
Let me see if I can find out anything on
this. Okay, guys. I'll read to you what
I found out here.
The historic Lyric Theater in downtown
Wayross, Georgia was built around 1923.
just sat here for 10 minutes, not one
car.
And is con is it's a contributing
property in the downtown White Cross
historic district on the National
Register of Historic Places. Over the
years, it has served as a local cinema
and hosted several world premieres for
movies filmed in the nearby Oki Finoi
Swamp, which we will get to later. Um,
now it was built in 1923 with some
records noting an earlier theater entity
on site as early as 1914. So, this could
be a second building,
you know.
>> Yeah.
>> So, and the design, distinct arch
windows and masonary details attached to
the historic Yarboro building, which is
that one right there.
which originally housed the theaters
upstairs offices.
So that building there, the theat's
offices were up there.
>> Yeah.
>> Up there in those windows.
Um
operated by the Georgia Theater Company
during the mid 20th century, peak of
downtown Way Cross. Uh ownership and
condition.
Um it says the building is privately
owned while long vacant and showing
signs of age. It remains standing as we
can see. Uh maintenance city and private
crews have performed exterior
maintenance such as safely removing
aging rooftop mechanical equipment
dispelling occasional rumors of imminent
demolition. the structures exterior
facade
and connected yard building intact. So,
it doesn't look like they're planning on
tearing it down, but the owner needs to
do something with it or sell it to
somebody that will. I mean, stuff like
this need to be saved.
>> Yeah, because you know there's a hole
right there.
>> Yeah, I know. I filmed it.
>> So,
>> so it's leaking.
>> Yeah, I know. All right, guys. I'll be
back with you. Want to share that with
you.
>> Okay, guys. So this is the rits.
Okay guys, so this is the rits. This is
the atmosphere I was telling you about.
Now I got
Okay, guys. So, this is the Ritz. This
is the other theater I was telling you
about.
Uh, I found some information on this,
which is uh pretty interesting. The Ritz
Theater originally opened as the Grand
Theater in 1913.
It was initially a vaudeville and live
performance space but screening silent
but was screening silent movies by 1914.
That's pretty cool.
In 1917
it was renamed the Oreium Theater. By
1935,
excuse me. By 1935, it was acquired by a
Paramont Pictures, a Paramont Pictures
subsidiary and a significant re re
by 1935. It was acquired by a Paramont
Pictures subsidiary and a significant
renovation in design was completed.
Its name was changed to the Ritz. The
fine art deco work is credited to
prominent Jacksonville architect Roy A.
Benjamin, one of the architects of the
iconic architects of the iconic Florida
theater. The Ritz showed its last
regular run movies in 1977
with some features still playing until
1984.
It became the home of the Way Cross area
community theater in 1986 and still
serves that purpose today. So, it is
still being used.
I should talk to that guy. See if we can
get inside there. I doubt it. See, he's
just a cleaner. But let's uh see what
that says.
Murders in the air. H E I R. Cool.
So, yeah, I think they're cleaning it.
What a beautiful theater, huh? Okay, I'm
going to go over and let Monkey uh film
because, you know, we got Bruno and he
likes to roam. You know, it's hard for
us to film while he's, you know, uh
walking around and stuff. Okay, I'll be
back with you. Just thought that was
interesting. If I find anything else
interesting before we get back to the
camper, I'll kick you guys on.
Thought I'd show you some of the
architect work on here.
Isn't that cool?
I don't know if they work or not, but
wouldn't that be cool if those uh neon
lights still worked? That would be
amazing.
Old ticket booth.
Cool. All right, guys. I'll be back with
you.
>> This gentleman, let us take a look in
here. Amazing.
Wow. I'm glad to see it's still
standing, you know. Yeah,
>> that is awesome.
Well, I won't hold you up. Thank you
very much. I appreciate it.
>> Yes, sir.
>> That was nice of him. The floor is wet.
They're cleaning, but that's cool. The
upstairs, which would probably be the
balcony up there. Cool.
>> See that house in Key West? I let me go
in there.
>> He was like, "You need to peek in here."
>> He said the floor is wet, but you can
peek in.
All right, I'll let you film. Do you
want to read about it?
>> I got it.
>> You got it. All right. Okay, guys. I
don't have much information about this,
but it is the Phoenix Hotel.
It's a classic period commercial lodging
structure that serve travelers passing
through the bustling South Georgia Rail
Junction, which is right there.
As you can see, there happens to be a
train going past.
And this is the rail junction.
Cool. Want to see another one? Okay,
guys. Here is another building. This is
the historic
Wayross City Hall. It was former YMCA.
This building was built in 1908 on
Pendleton Street. This brick landmark
originally functioned as a local YMCA
before being acquired by the city in
1916.
Its basement formerly housed the local
National Guard unit that mobilized for
active duty in World War II. See these
small towns, man, there's always
something. You know, you just look at
it. It's an old city hall building, but
it's wild. I mean, there's so much
historic significance in these towns
that, you know, people just don't like
right there. That's That's pretty cool.
Let's see. Let's see if I can zoom in on
that. I thought this was neat. Look at
this
water bill drop off box or drop box.
Must be around to the side. I mean, you
know, you can still drop off a check for
your water bill or cash in an envelope.
Amazing, huh? All right, I won't spend
too much time on this camera. I didn't
bring an extra battery. I did, however,
bring another camera, but not my mic.
But if we got to use it, we'll use it.
Okay, guys. So, here's another one kind
of significant. This is called the Bun
Building. B U N.
Just happens to be right across from the
Lyric Theater. All right, let me read
you something about this.
Look at all the pigeons.
Uh,
it was erected 1912.
This prominent fives fivetory structure.
1 2 3 4 5. Yeah.
Uh,
was the region's first fireproof
reinforced concrete building.
Historically, it housed a theater, a
pharmacy, and a dime store. Now, it
operates as an affordable family rental
property with vintage architectural
appeal appeal.
Uh features income restrictions to
ensure rent caps align with area
affordability standards. Welcomes
housing choice vouchers, though
applicants must otherwise qualify based
on household size and income limits.
Managed professionally with a focus on
quiet accessibil accessible
uh community environments. Resident
controlled access and an elevator for
building safety and ease of
movement.
On-site fitness center and a furnished
community room clubhouse. Business
center for residents. Resident computer
and workstation needs. on-site laundry
facilities and 24-hour emergency
maintenance support. So, I just thought
that was neat that it's, you know, the
region's first fireproof uh uh building.
So, that's pretty cool. Okay, this is a
shame.
A beautiful old house.
Looks like it was destroyed by fire.
However, it is for sale.
Monkeys falling, too.
No, that place is for sale. Wow,
what a beautiful Well, at one time it
was beautiful.
Look at that.
What a shame.
Yeah, we're going to go to a place to
eat. Sounds pretty cool.
Oh, it was a an apartment. See the
mailboxes there?
What a shame.
There's a cool place over there used to
be called the Serenity House.
Check this out.
Wow,
this was a big place.
What a shame.
Here.
All right, guys. We're going to go get
something to eat now.
Okay guys, so sorry about the traffic
noise. I don't have my mics my mic on
because I forgot it back at the thing.
We are at the beastro
and as you can see Oh, truckers RVs
parking and rear back there. That's
where we parked back over in there. They
got chicken curry, collarded greens,
neckbones.
They've got oxtails.
They've got smothered pork chops.
They've got chitterlings.
They have turkey wings.
And they have ribs.
Awesome little place here.
So monkey went in to order cuz Bruno's
allowed but he's allowed outside. So she
went in to order and uh so we're going
to sit over here for a minute. Hang on.
Traffic.
So I am going to get the smothered pork
chops and I am going to get color greens
and uh cabbage. So cool. when my when
our food get when our food gets here,
we'll uh I'll turn you back on maybe.
So, just
just talked to the owner. She come out.
Nice lady. Uh
she come out and was talking to us,
asked if we had any kids and grandkids
and you know, was talking about that and
she said, "Uh, nice black lady." And uh
she said um she said how old you think I
am. She said you can say ain't no shame
in my game. So I said uh I was guessing
around 62. She said I wish I was. She
said she's 82 and she's still running
this restaurant. And she has 38
grandkids and she has some of them in
there working right now. So that is
really cool. 82. And my goodness,
she doesn't look a day over 62. And
that's no joke. I know a lot of people
62 is old, but compared to 82, you know,
I mean, Monkeykey's mom's 78 and she
can't even hardly walk. So, and this
woman's still running a restaurant and
employing her grandkids. Amazing.
There's still some amazing people out
here. So, Monkey went in to check on our
food.
That's her there. So, all right guys,
I'll be back with you. Okay, guys. So,

cold by the time we got back. Especially
if we see something I want to film. So,
all right. I'll be back, guys. Look at

Way across Georgia. If you're in this
area, stop in. Wonderful people.
There's our utensils made out of wood. I

spoon before. Cool. All right, time to
chow it out. Okay, guys. I just ate. I

And it had a bed of rice underneath it.
And I don't know if you seen when I was
filming up there, but there's a table
had a bunch of brand new stuff sitting
on it. Uh they were giving away school
supplies for kids.
>> Yeah.
>> Or for That's why she asked if if we had
any kids.
>> Mhm.
>> Giving away free school supplies.

true pillar of the community and they
probably don't get recognized. Mm-m.

be back with you. As soon as she gets
done, we'll start heading back to the
camper. It's raining now, so
Monkey says she's going to put her pole
in the water and sit under the awning
and put a bell on it. We got bells,
didn't you?
>> Yeah.
>> I was going to make lasagna tonight, but
we still got four more days, so we can
still get it done.
>> But probably not going to happen
tonight, but we'll see. And another
glorious day of camping we are used to.
Right, mama?
>> Every single time.
>> Every time it rains.
That's okay. We're all right. Not mama.
>> Yep. We make our own fun.
>> Yeah. As long as the camper didn't leak,
we're good.

I'll kick you back on in a minute. Just

it out. 91 outside. It was 92. It
dropped a degree.
So, it's 91 outside.
Air conditioner's on low.
72. And it was 71. So, roughly 20°
difference.
Not bad for a 10 on wheels. Okay, guys.
There she is.
Die hard fishing woman.
We I forgot. I don't know if I mentioned
it. We got here yesterday. She's I
forgot my pole.
Sorry. We're going to Walmart tomorrow.
Grab you another one. She got her a
cheap one. It was like 10 or 15 bucks,
but it'll get her through. Plus, I got
one there, one over there if she needs
to use one. So, she's got some shrimp on
there and she's going to do some
fishing. So, all right, guys. Okay,
guys. Fish on.
Monkey had one on, but I had to show her
how to do it.
>> Oh, I can't bite now.
>> Oh, she's getting a bite now.
>> Let's see if it'll happen again. Shave
got one.
See if it happens again.
>> Your camera's facing me.
>> I know. I for you.
>> Oh, okay.
it in
a
turtle.
>> Yeah.
>> No way.
>> Oh my god.
>> The turtle man does it again.
>> Oh no.
That is what we don't want is a turtle.
>> I hate turtles.
>> They They fight you, too. Those big huge
ones are horrible.
>> All right, guys. I'll be back with you.
>> Okay, guys. So, I quit a little bit ago.
Monkeyy's still fishing. Uh, she just
caught something. She was babe. Opened
up door. I got a turtle.
8.91 lb. Pretty big turtle. So yeah, my
camera was up here, so I had to hurry up
and get down and help her. She's just
trying to yank it in. I'm like, you
can't do that. Get the net.
So, we got the net and I got the hook
out. I walked it just snapped the hook.
But, uh, yeah, 8.91 lb. So, that's not
her biggest That's not her biggest one,
but it's pretty big. Pretty good size.
It's soft shell leather back. So yeah,
I'm just in I was just out there just
about 10 minutes and man,
what's the
It's 89 outside, 74 inside.
I don't have my glasses on. Anyway, it's
89 outside and 74 in here. And I got
that on low, so it's doing well. Yeah,
it got really hot and humid out there.
So,
there is a slight breeze going. So, all
right, guys. I'll be back with you. Oh,
we have a breakdown.
These guys are having engine problems.
They can't get it started. And when it
does start,
it stalls out.
May have to get towed in
from there. It's not that far. Right
over there is the boat ramp.
Right there.
I got a guy with a hydrooil out here.
Monkey said, "Look." And I was kind of
busy
messing around with that. But anyway,
so I missed him.
But he was going past here eight, nine
times until I decide
to get the camera out. Now I don't see
him. But anyway,
if you if they come back through,
I'll try to get them on film for you.
Okay, they got someone to pull them in.
So that's good.
That sucks. Just trying to enjoy your
day. And
>> you got a paddle in there.
>> You got a paddle in there.
>> I can tell you how to paddle up.
>> Cool. That's good that they're helping.
Well, I would have. Well, I did tow a
boat in once, didn't I?
>> Yeah, you did.
>> Big boat with our little boat.
Cool. Well, it's not cool that they
broke down, but it's cool that someone
stopped to help them. That's awesome.
Okay, guys. There's our campsite on the
other side of that camper there.
We got a sinking boat here. And I don't
believe it was sinking yesterday with
all that rain. I'll bet you the pump
didn't kick on.
I should try to salvage it.
It's definitely sinking.
Let's uh go around here the other side.
Yep. It's It's over the stern.
Man,
not sure what's going on with that.
Look like one of the hatch covers
came off back there.
What's it
It's registered for two more years.
Well,
it's 2026, so
it registered until the 28th,
2028.
Yeah, it wasn't sinking yesterday.
I don't know how deep that is there, but
man,
that's stupid. People have boats like
this and they can't take care of them
or don't take care of them, whatever.
Oh, well, I don't know if I can find out
anything about it. We're going over here
and check up check the beach out. Okay,
guys. So, there
Okay guys, so there's the beach part.
You can go in there and go swimming.
This is the guy on the hydrooil. Let me
see if I can zoom in for you here.
That cool.
>> There he goes.
>> He made a jump.
>> Yeah, he did.
>> And uh we told one of the guys up here
about the boat.
I said, "Hey, that boat that's tied up
down here, it's sinking." He said,
"Which boat? Why?" I said, "Yeah." He
goes, "Well, she's out of town deep sea
fishing." I said, "Well, she's going to
have to deep sea get her boat cuz it's
sinking." He said, "Are you serious?"
Yes. It's going over the stern. Water's
going over. It's sinking.
>> Yeah.
>> Immediately pulls his phone. I got to
call this in.
>> All right, guys. I'll be back.
>> We might have some excitement over
there. Well,
>> I'm going to keep an eye on it.
>> Yeah, right.
>> You told monkey I should have wrecked
it, huh?
>> Yeah, right. Yeah. All right.
>> Get under there. Lift it up. We'll let
it pump out.
>> Wow.
>> Yeah.
Then guess what?
>> It's yours.
>> We'll f Well, it's not that easy. You
can't just take it. You got to file for
it and
>> Mhm.
>> But still, I mean, apparently they know
who the owner is. So, hey, this guy
saved your boat.
>> You owe them some money
>> and you can charge the price of the
boat. If they don't want to pay it, then
you get the boat, right?
>> Yeah. Mhm.
Oh, there he is jumping out of the water
again.
There he goes. Yeah, I got him.
>> Yeah.
Pretty cool, huh?
>> I want to get one. Monkey thinks I can't
do it. Never said that.
>> That sounds like a challenge to me,
guys.
>> You could have done it in your 20s. Now,
I don't know.
>> That's a challenge. All right, I'm going
to see if I can find a cheap one.
>> She's She'll have to pull me.
>> We found the uh beach. So now I know
I
just want to
try to come over here.
>> And there's that guy again.
Look at him. Look at that.
>> Did he fall?
>> No.
>> I missed that one. But I got it.
>> Um Yeah.

husband is on his way back

so there's he was going to get him and
uh Jay Bear decided to help him cuz he
had shorts and stuff back in there.
>> Well,
I would honestly I would have took it
out.
>> Yeah,
>> especially with all the rain we've had.
Yeah, I wish he had.
>> You know, I would not have left it in
here,
but you know,
>> I figured if he could
get wrapped up.
>> Uh-huh.
>> Well, no. He have a turn this way and
back the boat up a little bit, but I
don't know how much cable he got.
>> Well, even this right here is so soft.
>> Yeah, he can't come in here.
>> Uh-uh.
>> Now, I got a tractor back probably.
>> Yeah. I have to I have to pale this out

it's rocking like that.
>> Yeah.
Damn,
>> I got to step here cuz if I go back
there,
>> I'll just put in as much as I'm taking
out,
>> right? Yeah.
>> Might be
what kind of pump he's got.
>> All right, I'll be back, guys. There's
the owner there. She just came back.
They're going to get a pump
here. They got a pump right here. So,
they're going to use the pump and uh
pump it out.
I'll put you back on when they come
back.
>> Pump.
>> All right. Now, they're going to try to
take the boat.
>> I went down there and sure enough, it
was getting ready to come over the edge.
I got in there enough time to get it to

>> He's telling them about the story when
we went camping. Did it? Yeah.
>> It's going to balance out in a minute.
Man, this is a wahoo. It's unsinkable.

>> You can't move.
>> Really can't sink a whole lot more when
it's on the bottom.
>> Oh my god.
>> Do we even have that many extension
cords?
>> Oh, I guess he thinks you do.
>> Any extension cords?
chomp your foot.
>> Hey,
>> that's exciting.
>> Now, what was exciting was today when I
was in uh we were in Port Orange.
>> Oh, yeah.
>> Uh at a charter fishing fishing thing.
>> Yeah.
>> Now, that was fun. We caught about 40
fish all together.
>> Wow.
Well, I caught a turtle out of here
today.
>> Did you?
>> I didn't want a turtle. No.
>> That's I tell you, I ain't never caught
anything out here. But there's always
first time for everything.
>> Yeah.
>> Here they all come with the extension
cords. So, they're all going to
electrocute themselves because they're
going to put it in the water.
>> Oh, yeah.
Slush. Slash.
>> Don't worry. I ain't getting
over here. Yeah, I'll watch y'all get
electrocuted.
>> My batteries.
>> What is it supposed to be at?
>> It's fine. It's got three.
>> That's three bars.
>> Oh, level it off.
>> Oh, that's my fault. I pulled it up.
>> I forgot my
>> Yeah, really.
>> I did pull it up.
>> I ain't got no power.
>> You got power?
>> No, I ain't plugged it up.
>> It hasn't plugged it up yet.
>> But your sparks have a lot to be
lacking.
Oh, there it goes.
>> Yeah, here we go.
>> It working now.
>> There it goes.
>> Wow.
saying they got to see this boat going
down.
>> It's slowly coming out.
>> Interesting.
She got
>> there it goes.
She going to take it over there.
So that boat's a wahoo.
Wahoo!
That battery was underwater all that
time.
>> Yeah, it ran.
>> Fired right up.
>> Wow.
>> Okay, guys. They got it on the trailer.
They really should lift that motor up.
pull the plug and let it sit there and
drain for a little bit cuz there's still
some in it. But okay guys, so they got
the boat back over.
They got the plug out still draining
which it will for a little bit. They
they need to when they unhook that off
the truck, raise the jack to that
trailer up all the way
and then whatever water's up front will
drain out and it should be okay. But
that's a testament that that motor's
been or that battery's been underwater
all day long.
As soon as we got the water off of it,
it's
it was fine. It started that engine
right up. Okay, guys. So, I'm going to
do a little editing
and
mess around. Little tired right now. So,
uh,
I'll bring you back here in a little
bit. Good morning, everyone.
Day three. It's Sunday. It's 8:30 a.m.
It's 81°.
Time to get our day started.
Sorry I didn't get back with you again
last night. I just I started editing and

things. Bruno jumped up on the
there where I was editing and broke my
memory card. So
now that camera's not working. So I'm
going to have to get my new camera out
and use it. Hopefully nothing happens to
it. So all right guys, I'll be back with
you. Okay, guys. So, I think I'm going
to call it on today. Sunday. What is it?
About 10:30.
>> Yeah.
>> So, I'm going to call it on this one
because this video is going to run a
little long or starting to run a little
long. Don't worry,
have a part two
cuz monkey wants me to start that like
early as possible
for the lasagna.
And uh remember I still there's some
been some movies made around here. I'll

the next one. Enjoy life, guys. Too
short. Uh you know, like I I went in
there, got something. Turned on lights.
Everything's good. Come out.
Maybe 10 minutes later, I was like, "Oh,
I got to get something." Went in, turn
lights on. No lights. No 12vt.
They're 12vt lights.
I listened real close. I could hear the
converter running.
What the hell? And I looked around. I
didn't see Bruno anymore. I like Bruno,
where you at? Bruno, where you at? He's
looking at me right now. I'm right here.
And I heard a movement.
I was like, well, he's around here
somewhere. So, I knew, well, something
popped a breaker for the 12vt.
The only thing that's on that breaker
right now was the lights. 12vt lights.
And what the hell's going on?
So
I pull the cushions off cuz you know the
tables down. I pull the cushions off the
table so I can get cuz you got to go
under there. That's where the breakers
are. That's where the breaker box is.
And I heard a
what the hell.
He got under there and got the legs down
on the table and got himself stuck and
he must have been moving around and hit
the breaker. Turn the breaker off.
I opened that up and he's sitting there
looking at me real sad. I said, "Did you
get stuck?" He went I said, "Well, come
on. Get out of there." He got out,
hopped up in that bunk. I turned around,
looked at him. He's looking at me, head
sideways like, "What' you do?"
So, where did he go? He's He's under the
camper. All right, guys. Shar the Myth
