Excellent video Jay! We enjoyed it...
A very interesting Shrine. I filmed it on my channel years ago. Many people do not even realize its there.
Merry Christmas Jay Cris and to your family . And of course Bella. Who ever reads this have a blessed Merry Christmas. 🎄
Jay....you are doing an awesome job keeping 2 great ladies happy.
My old stomping grounds!! Went to church there, school there, but lived on a ranch off of Lithia Pinecrest! Wow this is so awesome!! Thank you 💖💖
Thank you such a beautiful place to live!
That was cool seeing CN . We have CN here in Michigan where i live
I love these type of videos with historic things and the small town and surprises like the restored movie theater with the Dazed and Confused screening how cool!
Nice catch, foreign power on the Prairie yard lead heading into the bone Valley
This was one of my favorites my mom and myself named after st Ann
🌚🎃🦋Merry Christmas to Jay, Cris, Momma Jay, and Cris’ parents!! 🎄🎁❄️☃️
Love you guys. ❤️
We all wish you a Merry Christmas too ! Thank you for watching our friend!
The monument quote
The heart of Jesus, our peace, have mercy on us"
Merry Christmas from Saint Louis to you and yours! 🎅🎁🦌
I love that area around Lake Wales!
Bok Tower is my favorite place on earth! So many great memories of visits there with my late husband when we lived in Florida.
Amazing adventure Jay... awesome to hear about and see some Florida history. Somehow I missed seeing this earlier..most likely was preparing for Christmas. Appreciate you sharing this amazing adventure with us and looking forward to seeing many more my friend.😎🇺🇸😇🙏😊
Awesome story Tampa Jay. Thank you. I wish I would like to know why the peregrines left. I know you are really great and you could find out and show us on a nice video again. Thank you
Great history lesson! Jay, ypu are the man
Thank you!
The shrine and whole area really are cool. Merry Christmas to you, Cris and families. Congrats for hitting over 90,000 subs.
Your videos always make me want to not only visit Florida again but move there. I love the small quiet areas. I’ve thought about moving to Florida for probably 20+ years. Happy New Year, Jay.
Gorgeous location, my friend. ❤
That looks like a writing spider 🕷. They can grow to be huge but won't bite.
Thank you for taking us along. Hugs 🤗
Merry Christmas, and God bless 🎄🙌
Merry Christmas brother , good video , born and raised in Tampa bay area, never knew that was there. 👍 BUT , "Avenue Maria" !??? 😂😂😂
Merry Christmas! Thank you
Tampa Jay: Thanks for the tour of the holy grounds. Very peaceful, and thanks also for watching out for the little doggies on the road. You're very kind. This is a great place for a "retreat", and I can imagine that the nuns and priests could meditate and pray.
Hello Jay I’m just now seeing this we live in Lakeland Not far from there it’s 10 min up the road lol Your so cool🤗💗🙏🏻Thanks for sharing big hugs to you and cris the girl ✌️💕
Merry Christmas Jay, Cris, Bella and family. 😇🌟🎄🎁What an awesome gem you found the stonework is amazing! The writing in the stone walkway going up to Saint Anne's shrine(16:54) is not Avenue Maria but Awveh Maria and means Hail Mary and is the start of a prayer 🙏 And what a place to build a church overlooking the lake. On a side note my mom grew up in Mulberry and the train tracks ran right behind their home. She went to school with the Badcock children.
I spotted that, “Ave Maria” also musical piece composed by Schubert.
Another great video Tampa Jay. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Thank you! Happy New Year!
Nice catch of the CN train engines!! When you see engines from a railroad that doesn't operate in that area, it's called foreign power. Happy Holidays to you and Cris and your families! 🎄
I think I saw that power sitting at Lakeland Junction one day about a week before Christmas
This was beautiful. ❤️🙏thank you for sharing.
Great job on covering such a variety of content! Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Merry Christmas! Nice touch for the season, showing the Shrine. And so no one makes fun of you. It's pronounced Ah vay Maria, Not Avenue. It's latin (Ave) meaning Hail Mary.
The restaurant was a McDonalds. They relocated just to the west.
I love this type of video with the small town and the historic things and surprises like that restored theater and the Dazed and Confused screening how cool!
Thanks for the video awesome places merry Christmas
Merry Christmas & Yuletide tidings to you & Christa Girl!

Merry Christmas 🎄
Very interesting video; took my wife (Anne) over there today to see this wonderful place. Did you notice, as you drive around the lake, it seems so much smaller than it looks? Thanks for sharing. Happy new Year to You, Cris and Families..... Jim
The train passing behind the Christmas tree. The money shot!!
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas ❤

The Catholic Church, that you was talking about is here in lake Wales Florida, and the abandoned restaurant, was a McDonald's, they close that one down when they built the new one down the road, lake Wales is my hometown this is where I live😊
Merry Christmas Jay. What a great video! Steven
Merry Christmas thank you!
Merry Christmas everyone ❤
The Phosphate Mountains more like hills in Mulberry are really cool also! That's what I call them anyway! You might want to check out Wewahitchka and the dead lakes there in the Florida Panhandle of Gulf County.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas !!!!!
Merry Christmas
Thanks for the shout out about a year ago I was so happy Ik I’m late but I love your videos when more wwe
🎄😘🎅Merry Xmas 🎉😊
Such a hidden gem. It must have been incredible to see. Perfect time of year to vist such a beautiful place. I believe they are referring to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux. She was also known as The Little Flower and is a very popular patron Saint. I wear a medal of her that was my grandmother's. I saw her statue there in the video. She is the one holding the crucifix with the red roses. Wishing you a blessed and joyful Christmas and a wonderful year to come! 🎄🌟
“Dazed and Confused” pretty much sums up my senior year in high school. 😂 My friends and I watched that movie I don’t know how many times. Love it.
Haha I was obsessed with it when I was a Freshman! The only problem for me is that the Seniors were obsessed with it too! Haha great soundtrack love it
@@TampaJay The sound track is epic!!!!
Merry Christmas Jay and Cris, wishing you all the best always. Much ahead :)
Merry Christmas my friend we appreciate you! Thank you 🙏
@@TampaJay😊❤
These are always some of my favorites to watch. I have to admit, at 18, I touched my tire after driving from LA to San Diego, thinking “I wonder if the tire gets hot?”
It did😂
Glad that train track didn’t!
❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
Merry Christmas Jay!
Merry Christmas thank you!
Dec 24. Little flower is st. teresa.. Ave Maria means hail mary
You should check out Ave Maria, FL. A town and college founded by the Domino's pizza founder and home to the only Mother Teresa Museum. Not as old but very beautiful!
Merry Christmas. There is a Buddhist Temple in Gainesville. This reminds me of that. The one in Gainesville is layed out a lot like this one and beautiful.
Merry Christmas Jay (it's the 25th here in Australia) glad I found your channel this year
Great video TJ . How is Chris doing ? Have great Christmas to the both of you !
Merry Christmas 🌲
Merry Christmas
Hope you don’t mind me saying how much you remind me of Adam the Woo back in the day. Happy holidays. Thanks

Maybe one day! Awesome thanks for watching
Great yard decor!! 😂
CN Rail Canadian National Rail // Merry Christmas
Happy Holidays to you and Cris!
I visited the shrine some years ago with a friend. It was way overgrown and in a pretty bad shape. It's great to see that the residents have cleared the site so it can once again be viewed at it should be. I looked up the Latin on the pedestal and the sides loosely translate to 1: "Heart of Christ, He is our peace. Mother pray for us.", 2: "Thy kingdom come.", 3: "Heart of Christ. Thus passes life. Mother pray for us." and 4: "Heart of Christ. Sacred heart of Jesus. Mother pray for us."
On my earlier comment I meant to say the McDonalds had relocated east of the old location.
Merry Christmas!!
Ave'
Today was my mkeyy dad's birthday he passed away last year on Christmas eve my adopted dad zeller family passed away on the 18th muchly muchly 💯 Tampa Jay not a very merry Christmas here but I wanted to wish you and cris and Bella a merry Christmas

Dang man. Wish I would have known you were in town! I would have loved to meet up with you. I live on gerber dairy road behind bartow airbase. Got a 25 acre ranch! Would have been real cool to meet up with you!
I just finished watching your show about Saint Anne shrine, and there was a monument that we couldn’t read because it was out in the water. I just looked it up on Wikipedia and it said it held the statue of Saint Christopher merry Christmas.

It was a McDonald’s They built a new one just east of there, Merry Christmas Jay!!!
That’s neato! I figured that may be the case. Failed to mention.. I stayed in Lake Wales briefly in 07 when my dad coached R Warner Southern and think I rolled thru that drive thru! Haha Merry Christmas!
Lake Wales 👋🏻
Early Afternoon Jay!! Love these series of videos!! Merry Christmas 🎄
Afternoon, Lee : )
Merry Christmas
“Little Flower” refers to St. Theresa of Lisieux , Pax vobiscum ✌🏻☀️Thanks for sharing .
Thank you so much! Merry Christmas
Spent 1st through 5th grade in Mulberry.
The mannequin in the "alligator" yard is usually dressed in G String ot T Back bathing suits. The old Church that is now the Art Museum was the original Catholic Church. They built the new McDonalds less than a mile away in front of the Winn Dixie Shopping Center.
Arvay Maria I think you meant. I know it’s the abbreviation of avenue though
Please read the actual History online its easy to find. I live there. The first Shrine on lake is to Mary and Saint Anne was her mother. The artist was laid to rest or there and it was his son and many more were Healed.
Hay Tampa. Jay , where in Florida. Is this shrine. Located? I am very. Interested in visiting one day.
