  • Took a weekend trip to see the cherry blossom trees in Athens Ohio. and we stayed in our first official campground too. so nice and peaceful.
    Also please note the story of the Halloween Tree and Dr. "Chainsaw" Walker is just a local fictional story. The real Dr. Walker passed away May 2, 2023 . "He had a particular passion for giving dignity to the many people buried at the Ridges Cemeteries on the old Athens Asylum grounds. Nicknamed “Tom Chainsaw Walker,”. And its just a story found in the google reviews.. wanted to correct this information quick. www.cookandson...

    4:24 where are you getting this stuff? Tom just died last year and he’s not buried there.

      The dude was a political science professor, not a freaking lumberjack.

      it was just a story that came up while googling reviews. "In one of the most haunted towns in America, on the grounds of an abandoned lunatic asylum, and amongst the cemeteries that are home to the unknown and unwanted: The Halloween Tree thrives. It dominates the trees in the area, and some say it even holds sway over men.
      In its shadow lies the grave of Dr. Tom "Chainsaw" Walker to serve as an example to anyone who would go against the tree. Legend has it that the people of Athens, weary of the evil influence of the tree, hired the fearless lumberjack known as Chainsaw to fell it. He set out upon this task, but when he did not return after the expected time, and after an additional time in which their curiosity finally overcame their fear, the townspeople went to look for him. What they found was not him, but a freshly dug grave." Did research and found the obituary after the video. yes it is just a story the man was a professor who liked the woods and area. so i added a note in the video. www.cookandsonpallay.com/obituary/Thomas-Walker?

      This was the source for that information. " From 1874 to 1993 this was a facility for people with all kinds of mental illnesses. People who were admitted were Civil War veterans, rebellious teenagers, homeless people, elderly people and even violent criminals." thelittlehouseofhorrors.com/the-athens-lunatic-asylum-the-ridges/

    Every time I watch you check your tire pressure I feel a little more and more guilty for not checking mine since I left Alaska in October 🫥😝

      check tire pressure and visual tire inspection. if you blow a tire at speed it can be quite an adventure. not one i wanna repeat very often lol. so it just became habit it check them every morning :)
