Still a great video even thought its “old”. The Hamburger Store closed years ago. It’s an Italian restaurant now. River Bend restaurant is closed which is unfortunate cause the food was good and the place had a great atmosphere. Big Pines Lodge is open and has great food.
The Hamburger Store was here in 2016 when I moved here. Then they closed and now it’s an Italian Restaurant. Sure do miss those hamburgers. They were so delicious. ❤
I live about 30 mins from Jefferson & can say with pride that it's one of the greatest little towns in Texas!!! The General Store is my favorite store in the world....hands down! And River Bend is a MUST when visiting! 💖💖💖
@@brendaokuda2158 Jefferson is also the home of the Blackburn syrup works. They still make really good jams, jellies and syrups. I grew up eating their products
I absolutely loved this!! This has got to be one of the best tours of a small town in Texas that I have watched on UA-cam so far! right now I’m looking at places in Texas. I could potentially move to in the future right now. I am a college student that has a 3.0 GPA but I would stay in watch the rest of this video but I have more homework to do. also I need to watch another video about greune Texas next goodbye and ciao my friend
The Jay Gould story with Jefferson is fascinating! According to legend, Gould wanted to take his railroad through Jefferson, but the city fathers wouldn't let him, so he allegedly put a curse on Jefferson, saying weeds would grow in the streets, and bats would roost in the belfries of the town.
Day Tripper, Maybe you should have mentioned that your video was filmed more than 4 years ago as the Hamburger Store has been closed for over 4 years. Glad we did a little research before doing a day trip there this weekend. Not very trustworthy UA-camr for making it appear that this was filmed recently.
Thank you DayTripper, your helping me find towns I never knew existed, and experiences to have.

We all appreciate these!!!

In the 90’s the Hamburger Store was the best spot to eat! Hands down!
Yes sir! Been looking forward to seeing your Caddo Lake episode 😁

The Red River log jam made lake Caddo much deeper. East Texas cotton was moved to New Orleans down the Red River.
Does the grey ghost still operate at Caddo lake?
No. It sank at Big Pines Lodge. You can see it partially in/out of the water. They have been using pontoon boats for the tours for several years now.
Just found this video of my home town (Jefferson). Would love for you to visit again and do an update!
Thanks for your show on pbs
I have autism and I love the Colorado episode.
Love going to Caddo Lake.
Hey love your channel! We live in Gtown! Can you do a good video on Wimberley! So much Art there!
I'm lucky enough to live here year round. It's a wonderful place to live!
Wow! That exact piano chair sat in my house growing up. Memories :)
Been watching these videos on YT for a while but they all say "originally aired on PBS in October 2014..."
I could tell by the boat ramp that this has been a while. It hasn't been accessible for a long time now

Can you upload the rest of season two and three?

It is because the town would not defer the taxes for the railroad.
We were there yesterday on our way home from camping. I was looking for the Hamburger Store which I couldn’t remember the name. 😂. Thanks for the help
I actually have lived in Jefferson for the past 32 years lol. I live about 100 yards from the watertower
I must say again....this is way better than the ddd dude.....WAY BETTER!
Sad that😮 the Hamburger Store is permanently closed.
What is that buzzing sound during the Caddo Lake scene?
Cicadas.
chili burger: first bites the hardest, LOL
This looks like home to me . ❤
I dont think I’ve had a sandwich in Jefferson that I could eat without practically dislocating my jaw lol
Just google this restaurant, it says permanently closed?
Yes , This is an old video. Its been closed for years. There is an Italian restaurant there now.
The Excelsior House and the Atalanta are borh owned, operated and maintained by the Jesse Allen Wise Garden Club.
You missed so much in Jefferson, you didn't even take the ghost tour.
I live in Jefferson and there's no place like it or Caddo lake!
🥰
How old is this video??? Jefferson isn't quite what it is in the video. Edit: ahh just saw 2012 at the end...
They are called hamburger toppings, not bottomings
Also, the Adams family's house was never scary
Texas..." tall mountains." 😂

We're a PBS show and recently decided to put everything on UA-cam. We disclose the original air date in the caption. Sorry for any confusion.
