    Palatka is only 30 minutes from St.Augustine.Great video guys,thanks,not much on our little city.That giant tree at the court house is what protestors have been trying to get removed lately! I hope they never do.Its soo incredible,so many people married under it and Ive hung out w/ my friend for picnics there too!!

    Palatka is so small but full of so much love for each other and adventure and it’s close to a lot like St Augustine is like 45 minutes away and many more people judge it a lot but you really can’t Judge a book by it’s cover❤️

      We went there the first time because we were going to visit St. Augustine but the hotel was cheaper in Palatka, and we enjoyed it so much that we went back at the time of this video. We’ll probably go back again, too. Our video-making/editing skills have improved at least somewhat since this video and we could probably make a better video now.

      We also have the Blue crab festival which has been postponed due to virus but alot of people attend, the East palatka fair in March, many Bass tournaments, some are televised.. Palatka has a new boat that occasionally takes people out on the river (usually during festivals.. and the St. John's center near the clocktower.. and I agree with Corky Bells.. the best shrimp in town.. in May we have sailboat races and during peak season the river front has many out shrimping off the docks.. periodically a cruise ship will dock at the public boat ramp..

    The Rolle Family owned the Charlotte’s Rollestown Plantation there in the past. My family members were slaves on Deny Rolle’s plantation. When the plantation failed he transported his slaves to Exuma Bahamas. Sure, wish there were murals of Palatka’s historical slave plantation past. Amazing how minorities are written out of Florida’s history. It’s actually disgraceful.

      Sorry for the bad experience there. This was one of our earliest videos. We were just getting started in UA-cam and video editing, and audio was a significant challenge for us in the early days especially.

      Just want to say, you handled this person with far more grace than many YT presenters would have in response to such an unnecessarily rude comment. Kudos for your tactfulness. 👍🍪
      If the audio was so horribly off, this person could have quit watching...or maybe watched somewhere other than their vehicle, where they'd have their hands free to adjust the volume. 🤷‍♀️ WTF were they doing watching YT videos when they're driving anyway?! 🤦‍♀️ Holy cow some people are obtuse. 😂 I didn't notice anything wrong with the audio, so even if it was an early vid on your channel, y'all did a great job. 😊
