Abandoned TattooTonyAlton Exploring thank you for the video I enjoy seeing the Abandoned St. Louis as I've visited the city many times and have family that live there.
Abandoned TattooTonyAlton Exploring Beautiful thank you for sharing some american history. That is sad how come the place of Saint Louis did not keep the building and it could be a museum.
Explore Abandoned Places With TattooTonyAlton What a shame- the building was probably beautiful at one time- filled with love & laughter, children being born, growing- playing. Then the other side when there were sad times with children /wife/who knows how many others died over the years. If those walls could talk. Thanks for telling us about the place & making this video. Soon it seems it will be torn down & we will lose another pice of history.
As an architect I weep when i see this, I would give anything to deconstruct it move to a suitable location and rebuild and restore it to or as close to original as possible, I did a Brownstone from Detroit everything is labeled and ready for reconstruction of 100% build, I am willing to make deals on it, I am looking at several others and am in the process of decon on 7 antique homes.
Michael Smith wow awesome.. look through my channel, sub and keep watching. you will see more and more old buildings.. unless of course you don't want to weep.. which is understandable. check out the stone home from 1856 I believe is the date.. it's a federal style building.. could be saved.. but looks like it won't be
"I turned on closed caption so I could hear you,Music to loud,covered you up,Such a amazing history an Building,Loved this,Thank-You for Sharing,So Sad!!!"
I really like the video. The mansion is huge. Such a shame that it has fallen into such disrepair. It is sad to think of all the memories that are gone/lost for forever. I bet it was beautiful in its own time. Thank you for visiting Mark Twain's home. Be safe!
Hiya, Tony!!! ... Lemmetellya, your drift, float & pan shots are naturally getting better and better, *YOU--ARE--OFFICIALLY-UP--AND--FLYING* creativity-wise. Day vs. Night better. Whatta kick, really. I genuinely saw that coming, *EXCELLENT.* Here's Karmic-Ping synchronicity for ya ... I got into a really nice conversation with a total stranger yesterday; an elderly man with a cane, who was obviously having as much trouble with his knees as I was having. I was sitting on a Wal-Mart bench packing up my groceries in this telescopic handle airline luggage-on-wheel thingie I use as a shopping basket when he tottered by, so I quickly said "Here, I'll scootch over here, have a seat", which he gratefully took. After we got through bitching about our decaying bodies and laughingly comparing symptoms, something clicked, and, long story short, I somehow found myself talking about *Samuel Clemens,* aka Mark Twain, and reeling off some of my favourite quotes. And as I did so, this man's eyes transitioned from simply sparkling, to an intense glow, which I noticed. So, I shut up, and simply returned "that smile" which had also lit up his face. And then he told me that he was a retired actor, in his '70's, and that he had toured in the same *AN EVENING WITH MARK TWAIN* stage play as had Hal Holbrook. *My fucking jaw hit the floor.* By the time his wife showed up, and finally (and quite rightly) lost patience with both of us, she needed those "Jaws Of Life" portable hydraulic pry-bar thingie EMT's use to get people out of horrendous car wrecks. You just don't luck into many conversations as great as that one genuinely was. So, when I saw what building you were getting into this time, Tony, well, my jaw hit the floor *again. PINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGG!!* And then you started commenting about how annoyed you are by camera shakiness, and I got *PINNNNNNNNGED* again to the max. Laying somewhere in my bedroom are *TWO* technically excellent one-hand-held *steadicam mounts* which I bought in a fit of Terminal Techno-Geekiness (from that wholesale website I routinely haunt) over a year ago ... *AND HAVE NEVER USED.* Why I bought 'em but never used 'em is neither here nor there, "Typical Tom.* The eternal & infinite techno-geek in me got to drooling over all the chromium steel individually graded wheel weights that you screw-bolt on and off as needed, and how those wheel weights are on a slide-mount bar so you can place them for perfect balance, and then how even that slide-mount bar can be swung out, and locked into place to achieve perfectly level balance, no matter what your camera is carrying on its superstructure (light, mic, etc.) Bottom line, no matter what is attached to your camera in whatever configuration, this baby saw allllllllllll those problems coming, and provides simple, elegant "common sense" adjustment capabilities so as to assure a smooth, steady float. Your hold it in your hand like an automatic pistol; the handle is comfortably foam-padded. It has a *FORWARD-L* configuration, and universal ball joint balance point. Simple, standard camera mount screw, which is ALSO on an fully in-out-forward-backward slide bar you lock down where you want it, for perfect balance in that axis. I even fine-tuned it by adding a spring-and-polyurethane foam (ultra-permanent) motion damper on the axle underneath the universal ball joint balance point / camera mounting slide bar. I did this to add slight traction drag, so when you moved your hand to "point the gun" at something to the left or the right, and/or static-panned vertically up/down, the camera gently and smoothly follows your hand's aim. And it is *SWEET.* This same slight traction drag will hold a left or right-aimed travel-pan shot angle as you walk along. *SUPER SWEET!!!* But the *REAL* hidden bonus in this baby is that using it will naturally cause you to slow down your panning motion speed a bit, so we audience members & fans can Ooooohhh and Aaaaaaahhh over what will come off as indoor aerial drone glass-smooth & solid movement, and exploration. It's yours, Tony. I don't need it, and you do, so that's that. What a pleasure it'll be to just do what any valid Brotherhood Of Creativity lifelong member absolutely must do for another Brother: just shut the fuck up, do the right thing, and bask yet again in the glow of proving to one's self yet again that *actions speak louder than words.* And that a beyond-meaningful part of me will always be able to share in your sheer joy of being self-taught, *by the right equipment for the right job,* to get those floaty, dreamy, stream-of-consciousness master shot walkthroughs of *THE* most spectacular of surroundings, which you literally risk Life & Limb to get. *I get that, totally.* I have to deal with some "Real World Bullshit" today, but I promise I'll take the pics and send you a photomontage of this baby, so *YOU* can have a good drool, too, lolol. I'll be looking to contact you through your website's *CONTACT ME* thingie, so I know where to mail it off to you ASAP. You mentioned in your recent "Update Statement" that you'll be having more time to get out and explore ... well, this has got to be at least *one* reason why I bought *two* of these things and never used 'em. Go fuckin' figure ... :))) As Mark Twain so wisely said, "I have never let my education interfere with my learning".
Thank you for showing this video and giving everyone the history story of this historical building. It is sad that it was not maintained and preserved for many more years to come. Please do not put yourself in danger when doing these videos and stay safe. My prayers go with you. God Bless
U really did some remarkable footage of this building and enjoyed watching every detail. Such a shame that it is in the shape it is. Thank you for your time putting this together!!!
I doubt we have in our country many skilled artisans left--if any--who are able to craft the woodwork, tile, moldings, etc. found brutalized in such neglected buildings, nor do we have the hardwoods and other precious raw materials available (except maybe in small quantities for the obscenely rich). Almost everything these days is artificial trash that doesn't last, and it's made by machines, so there is nothing unique about it---There can be little respect for any human beings if we don't respect the talent and love that others poured into making those beautiful things. It's so touching to consider this home was a monument to the love of his wife!
I used to write to Post-Dispatch about this mansion, so sad it getting worse by the years. If I won $50,000,000 I will definitely buy it and fix it up to its former glory.
very nice video. i personallly have been inside this mansion. i like to go through old abandoned places i find and look at the paperwork i can find and learn about it. he isnt lying about what hes talking about. some of is isnt completely clear but he isnt wrong
I love this Video!! Thank you for taping this. I love Mark Twain n all the History connected to him !! It is so sad to see this Place so Destroyed n Neglected.
Thank you for the video. It's such a shame that those beautiful historical mansions are left to rot and decay. Sad that the city did nothing to preserve the mansion for future generations to enjoy. City leaders would just rather demolish these historical structures and make parking lots, than preserve them. It happened where I live too. Some years back the city leaders wanted to demolish an old historical theater and make a parking lot in its place. The community was outraged at the prospect of losing this architectural gem to the wrecking ball. The people came together to try and save the theater by raising funds. Along with donations, fund raising, grants, etc. . ., the theater was saved and underwent million dollars renovation. The theater was restored to its original splendor down to the very last detail. It's the Plaza Theater if you care to look it up. If it had not been for the efforts of the community to save it, the theater would not be in existence and in its place would be an ugly, bare parking lot right in the middle of the downtown area. Ugh😝😜.
There is a bit of a gap in the information about the 'social service' organizations that used the buildings. I was a part of a group that used the buildings from 1980 thru 1987. We never owned the property, but cooperated with the Vincentions to maintain the buildings during that time. when we left in '87 , it was because we didn't have enough volunteers to keep up with the work, and the city had done an inspection and determined that there were a lot of structural issues, and to repair would have amounted to about $220K back then. Another group did obtain the buildings later, and did take over ownership, but their effort failed after a few years, I guess because they couldn't raise the money to refurbish. As I recall, one of the big structural issue that had become apparent in the '80's was the cast iron front of the old mansion was becoming seperated from the structure. Nobody occupied the buildings after around '90 or so. Around the summer of 2017 there was a massive fire, possibly arson, or maybe fireworks, as this happened shortly after the 4th of July. Later the buildings were demolished. all one can see now are vacant lots.
I actually lived in this house😘 I adored and feared it at the same time. It was a shelter then and it was well kept. It was beautiful to say the least.
I love your vids. I came here after seeing this place had burned on one of your other vids. such a waste of a building. with beautiful decor that we don't even consider using on a home. wow putting her death mask. so much love.
Wow. Again, great video, Tony. What gets me is that this is such a great and historical home of a figure in history, related to a figure in history. And his home sits rotting with penis, pot leaves and other stupid tagging on its walls. Just....wtf.
Know u must always consider your safety first or we won't have u for others. Thank u for this video and the St.louis, Mo video.I wish u could have video the home next door to that home it was fabulous.
sad to think future generations will never see the grandeur and beauty of the old architecture, i guess it just gets to expensive to maintain once things are left and decay gets in, most have been wonderful in times past
The video would be much better without the music, or at least with the music more muted into the background. It is too loud, to the point where your voice gets so muddled it's not understandable. So you lose alot of the narration clarity.
Enjoyed this video very much. Really appreciate you taking the time to research the history behind it and sharing with us. Such a shame this beautiful home and church are just rotting away. The architectural details; even on the door hinges. Never saw anything like that before. Thanks for sharing!
they had a lot of kids back then, because disease or misfortune of some kind might snatch half or most. it was known to happen. it was very important for them back then to "increase the odds" that a branch of the family would make it into the future to continue branching, etc. sorry for all the replies.
Thank you so much for risking your life to keep history alive and for us to see it that cannot travel to these places. This was absolutely beautiful.. all the ornate details down to the door hinges was amazing.. Yes please turn down the music when you are narrating videos.. it was tough to hear and I would have loved to learn more .. Keep up the great work and be safe ..! ✌🏼
WOW!! That was a awesome video Tony!! I love all of the history that you were relating to us as you're walking around.... Like you said such a shame there HAS to be one idiot, possibly more who feel the need to mark up the walls of a historic landmark! Thank you for showing us this and always be safer, than sorry!! We need you so we can watch your awesome videos!! Peace, Kim ~
It doesn't look too stabilized to me. It looks to me, like they are waiting for it to fall down, so they can scrape it off and build something new. Honestly I think your videos are as good as Dan Bell's. I think you should keep this stuff exclusive on your channel. But if you really want him to come explore with you, you should just comment on his videos and invite him. Then keep on, until he agrees.
Ya, it wasn't restored and didn't have money put into preserving it because it's on the North Side of Saint Louis. That's my best guess. It's crazy that social service organizations were operating out of it in the 90's and from then to now it's almost completely unsafe to walk through.
Very interesting. As far as, I know their is no genetic link to the mixed race Clemens family of Darke County, Ohio. However, I believe with more advanced DNA technology they will find a link.
if you contact kmov 4 news they would show and let people in st Louis mo how they leave these beautiful home. my daughter is a photographer and she finds old places to take wedding pictures and senior and historical places. HARPER AND BROTHERS IMAGES
Yup, I was wondering if you subscribed to Dan Bell. I watch his stuff all of the time. It's interesting going into these old places, kind of dangerous too!
Pretty decent job in documenting the interior combined with outside photos . Now the building can be torn down . Those people that have enough money to restore this building would get more satisfaction in building their own memorial. Its time to let it go.
It's very sad that the two sister had to take care of the house that are from the past the poison but who's going to be take care in the future that they're not going to be there anymore because I'm a new owner or the new owner that I just don't care very good enough because well the struggles of the economy and everything on it that it is very difficult times and especially that well everyone has to be a always love and which one is it which one is not it doesn't matter is everything that it is very precious that are people like it they kind of like the other for the classical classic and restart you know but this is the future that how it is and for the future of everyone that I need to know that where they need to be a racing the money and to have a set that is unique it's not that is like Landmark or precious valuable or historic or something like that it doesn't matter like that it just is like to have a catch to it of a Santa Ines they look being understand and even sometimes. For the past and to the Future you know but someday that this house will be at take care of it or somebody new owners will take care of every sort but the video that I just saw that the floacist is half of it the Floyd is coming down the roofer is missing it's going to be like tremendous of a well everyone need to save all day get a piggy and empty you have there been a full you know and then everyone needs to understand that well it is only matters in time will tell the truth about it that if it's still there on 2021 then is still there today but many people that are. Just like a one or two I get a new house or get a used house or well other things but sometimes I gotta love a quiet place is just a quiet about your birth or neighborhoods and towns play relaxation comfortable and having fun and the future is always to see the what's going to happen next a dwell in the future and I hope that many people are well sometime that are 50 states that are have a precious of a where people date just don't know because looks like a very ugly from the outside but inside it is some of them unique and sometimes that people that always and I never know something about it and it sometimes. Well it's too much pain to right there had to be a paint removed and then you could see the true beauty right there and clean it up the woods possible because is everyone needs to know and let's see what's going to happen next
sorry the music is a little louder than i wanted..
Abandoned TattooTonyAlton Exploring the music wasn't too bad
Abandoned TattooTonyAlton Exploring thank you for the video I enjoy seeing the Abandoned St. Louis as I've visited the city many times and have family that live there.
check out my channel. more and more stl going up all the time

Thanks for telling us about the place & making this video. Soon it seems it will be torn down & we will lose another pice of history.
My grandma said there are two kinds of people: those that create and those that destroy.
I have seen videos of this abandoned Mansion a few times. But I must say this is the 1st time that I truly appreciated the tour and the story.
So sad to see so much american history just fade away Phil
i was there around 2016 it was very amazing walking thru the building i really wish i had the money to revamp it and possibly live in it
As an architect I weep when i see this, I would give anything to deconstruct it move to a suitable location and rebuild and restore it to or as close to original as possible, I did a Brownstone from Detroit everything is labeled and ready for reconstruction of 100% build, I am willing to make deals on it, I am looking at several others and am in the process of decon on 7 antique homes.
Michael Smith wow awesome.. look through my channel, sub and keep watching. you will see more and more old buildings.. unless of course you don't want to weep.. which is understandable. check out the stone home from 1856 I believe is the date.. it's a federal style building.. could be saved.. but looks like it won't be
I dig your stuff brother, you are showing the country we are in trouble and need to fix things and preserve Americana, culture worthy of saving!
Michael Smith Thanks we're trying
Stay safe on lifes adventures and keep on keeping on!
Michael Smith Nice, please keep on restoring buildings especially the historical ones. Good luck finding contracts and reconstructing.
"I turned on closed caption so I could hear you,Music to loud,covered you up,Such a amazing history an Building,Loved this,Thank-You for Sharing,So Sad!!!"
Loved the building. Amazing staircase, tile, cherubs,etc. And appreciate your effort to relay history. Couldn't hear over the music. Thanks.
+Susan Long ya i know
I really like the video. The mansion is huge. Such a shame that it has fallen into such disrepair. It is sad to think of all the memories that are gone/lost for forever. I bet it was beautiful in its own time. Thank you for visiting Mark Twain's home. Be safe!
Hiya, Tony!!!
... Lemmetellya, your drift, float & pan shots are naturally getting better and better, *YOU--ARE--OFFICIALLY-UP--AND--FLYING* creativity-wise. Day vs. Night better. Whatta kick, really. I genuinely saw that coming, *EXCELLENT.*
Here's Karmic-Ping synchronicity for ya ... I got into a really nice conversation with a total stranger yesterday; an elderly man with a cane, who was obviously having as much trouble with his knees as I was having. I was sitting on a Wal-Mart bench packing up my groceries in this telescopic handle airline luggage-on-wheel thingie I use as a shopping basket when he tottered by, so I quickly said "Here, I'll scootch over here, have a seat", which he gratefully took.
After we got through bitching about our decaying bodies and laughingly comparing symptoms, something clicked, and, long story short, I somehow found myself talking about *Samuel Clemens,* aka Mark Twain, and reeling off some of my favourite quotes. And as I did so, this man's eyes transitioned from simply sparkling, to an intense glow, which I noticed. So, I shut up, and simply returned "that smile" which had also lit up his face.
And then he told me that he was a retired actor, in his '70's, and that he had toured in the same *AN EVENING WITH MARK TWAIN* stage play as had Hal Holbrook. *My fucking jaw hit the floor.* By the time his wife showed up, and finally (and quite rightly) lost patience with both of us, she needed those "Jaws Of Life" portable hydraulic pry-bar thingie EMT's use to get people out of horrendous car wrecks. You just don't luck into many conversations as great as that one genuinely was.
So, when I saw what building you were getting into this time, Tony, well, my jaw hit the floor *again. PINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGG!!*
And then you started commenting about how annoyed you are by camera shakiness, and I got *PINNNNNNNNGED* again to the max. Laying somewhere in my bedroom are *TWO* technically excellent one-hand-held *steadicam mounts* which I bought in a fit of Terminal Techno-Geekiness (from that wholesale website I routinely haunt) over a year ago ... *AND HAVE NEVER USED.*
Why I bought 'em but never used 'em is neither here nor there, "Typical Tom.* The eternal & infinite techno-geek in me got to drooling over all the chromium steel individually graded wheel weights that you screw-bolt on and off as needed, and how those wheel weights are on a slide-mount bar so you can place them for perfect balance, and then how even that slide-mount bar can be swung out, and locked into place to achieve perfectly level balance, no matter what your camera is carrying on its superstructure (light, mic, etc.) Bottom line, no matter what is attached to your camera in whatever configuration, this baby saw allllllllllll those problems coming, and provides simple, elegant "common sense" adjustment capabilities so as to assure a smooth, steady float. Your hold it in your hand like an automatic pistol; the handle is comfortably foam-padded.
It has a *FORWARD-L* configuration, and universal ball joint balance point. Simple, standard camera mount screw, which is ALSO on an fully in-out-forward-backward slide bar you lock down where you want it, for perfect balance in that axis.
I even fine-tuned it by adding a spring-and-polyurethane foam (ultra-permanent) motion damper on the axle underneath the universal ball joint balance point / camera mounting slide bar. I did this to add slight traction drag, so when you moved your hand to "point the gun" at something to the left or the right, and/or static-panned vertically up/down, the camera gently and smoothly follows your hand's aim. And it is *SWEET.* This same slight traction drag will hold a left or right-aimed travel-pan shot angle as you walk along. *SUPER SWEET!!!*
But the *REAL* hidden bonus in this baby is that using it will naturally cause you to slow down your panning motion speed a bit, so we audience members & fans can Ooooohhh and Aaaaaaahhh over what will come off as indoor aerial drone glass-smooth & solid movement, and exploration.
It's yours, Tony. I don't need it, and you do, so that's that. What a pleasure it'll be to just do what any valid Brotherhood Of Creativity lifelong member absolutely must do for another Brother: just shut the fuck up, do the right thing, and bask yet again in the glow of proving to one's self yet again that *actions speak louder than words.* And that a beyond-meaningful part of me will always be able to share in your sheer joy of being self-taught, *by the right equipment for the right job,* to get those floaty, dreamy, stream-of-consciousness master shot walkthroughs of *THE* most spectacular of surroundings, which you literally risk Life & Limb to get. *I get that, totally.*
I have to deal with some "Real World Bullshit" today, but I promise I'll take the pics and send you a photomontage of this baby, so *YOU* can have a good drool, too, lolol. I'll be looking to contact you through your website's *CONTACT ME* thingie, so I know where to mail it off to you ASAP. You mentioned in your recent "Update Statement" that you'll be having more time to get out and explore ... well, this has got to be at least *one* reason why I bought *two* of these things and never used 'em.

Wow. Again, great video, Tony. What gets me is that this is such a great and historical home of a figure in history, related to a figure in history. And his home sits rotting with penis, pot leaves and other stupid tagging on its walls. Just....wtf.
Know u must always consider your safety first or we won't have u for others. Thank u for this video and the St.louis, Mo video.I wish u could have video the home next door to that home it was fabulous.
"Social Services" What a JOKE. It's beyond sad to see such waste of a beautiful and historic resource.
sad to think future generations will never see the grandeur and beauty of the old architecture, i guess it just gets to expensive to maintain once things are left and decay gets in, most have been wonderful in times past

This abandoned it's cool, great video buddy..!

Awesome video thank you for learning new information I always look forward to this good job tony keep up good work please stay safe

Abandoned TattooTonyAlton Exploring So sorry to hear that. Sad. I suppose it was vandals. That's good that you documented this house and the chapel.
i think "without issue" was a term used when no children were born of him. ps: i happen to like the music. ty for making this.
WOW!! That was a awesome video Tony!! I love all of the history that you were relating to us as you're walking around.... Like you said such a shame there HAS to be one idiot, possibly more who feel the need to mark up the walls of a historic landmark! Thank you for showing us this and always be safer, than sorry!! We need you so we can watch your awesome videos!! Peace, Kim ~
Loved this house. I'm with u on the vandalism wish the place was in better shape. Lost count of all the rooms. Thx 4 sharing
It doesn't look too stabilized to me. It looks to me, like they are waiting for it to fall down, so they can scrape it off and build something new. Honestly I think your videos are as good as Dan Bell's. I think you should keep this stuff exclusive on your channel. But if you really want him to come explore with you, you should just comment on his videos and invite him. Then keep on, until he agrees.
+Max Zomboni disagree dan bell has some beautiful footage and videos... but I'm not mad... i will take that as a major compliment...
Loved it!
It appears that at least someone was saving some of the wood work.
do you feel like some of these places you explore could be haunted? have you ever experienced anything paranormal while you're exploring?
Great job.. I've seen so many of your videos now that I recognize some graffiti artists lol
Video is a historical record of the James Clemons mansion.
very sad what a waste of a very lovely historic structure nobody cares anymore these buildings need to be restored before they get this bad tony
Ya, it wasn't restored and didn't have money put into preserving it because it's on the North Side of Saint Louis. That's my best guess. It's crazy that social service organizations were operating out of it in the 90's and from then to now it's almost completely unsafe to walk through.
Very interesting. As far as, I know their is no genetic link to the mixed race Clemens family of Darke County, Ohio. However, I believe with more advanced DNA technology they will find a link.
if you contact kmov 4 news they would show and let people in st Louis mo how they leave these beautiful home. my daughter is a photographer and she finds old places to take wedding pictures and senior and historical places. HARPER AND BROTHERS IMAGES
+Salina Raymer I'm sure they know
Dude, the music and the talking at the same time does not work.
i know i pinned an apology to the top.. maybe I'll re upload made a mistake rushed to put a video up
I just wanted to visit these places on my local journey idk if the police will give me trouble now since they keep spray painting these places
Yup, I was wondering if you subscribed to Dan Bell. I watch his stuff all of the time. It's interesting going into these old places, kind of dangerous too!
The house burned down in 2017 , very sad indeed.
Could not hear you over the music. Uhhhh
Pretty decent job in documenting the interior combined with outside photos . Now the building can be torn down . Those people that have enough money to restore this building would get more satisfaction in building their own memorial. Its time to let it go.
To late it already burnt down several years ago
@@TattooTonyAlton And now your video is valued at least in this case of a bygone golden era
nice work
+Nvisibledesigns thanks.. for the dope ass thumbnail... your a great photographer
The music is unfortunately loud and distracting
nice voice tony
It's sad but this area is to dangerous to fix anything no amount of money would help!
love these school l ones
Enough with the music!! I like hearing about the building, good videos!
Great video but turn the music down- could hardly hear what you were saying.
Ya old videos too bad I didn’t film all these places I went too now with better camera and audio
very sad this place should have been better looked after what a sin
Background music killed the video.
Audio is terrible
What is current status/condition, as of 2019.
Burnt to the ground not in existence
10:20 Not angels, "cherubs".
Bill Smith ya i know... I say that a lot.. but yes I'm aware..
It's very sad that the two sister had to take care of the house that are from the past the poison but who's going to be take care in the future that they're not going to be there anymore because I'm a new owner or the new owner that I just don't care very good enough because well the struggles of the economy and everything on it that it is very difficult times and especially that well everyone has to be a always love and which one is it which one is not it doesn't matter is everything that it is very precious that are people like it they kind of like the other for the classical classic and restart you know but this is the future that how it is and for the future of everyone that I need to know that where they need to be a racing the money and to have a set that is unique it's not that is like Landmark or precious valuable or historic or something like that it doesn't matter like that it just is like to have a catch to it of a Santa Ines they look being understand and even sometimes. For the past and to the Future you know but someday that this house will be at take care of it or somebody new owners will take care of every sort but the video that I just saw that the floacist is half of it the Floyd is coming down the roofer is missing it's going to be like tremendous of a well everyone need to save all day get a piggy and empty you have there been a full you know and then everyone needs to understand that well it is only matters in time will tell the truth about it that if it's still there on 2021 then is still there today but many people that are. Just like a one or two I get a new house or get a used house or well other things but sometimes I gotta love a quiet place is just a quiet about your birth or neighborhoods and towns play relaxation comfortable and having fun and the future is always to see the what's going to happen next a dwell in the future and I hope that many people are well sometime that are 50 states that are have a precious of a where people date just don't know because looks like a very ugly from the outside but inside it is some of them unique and sometimes that people that always and I never know something about it and it sometimes. Well it's too much pain to right there had to be a paint removed and then you could see the true beauty right there and clean it up the woods possible because is everyone needs to know and let's see what's going to happen next
