In the winter of 2019 I traveled to the rotten old shed that served as my storage unit on a remote piece of property in the Olympic Peninsula region of Washington State. I went there to search for one of my old high school binders so that I could film a flip-through video for KZfaq.
While I was searching through the dilapidated mess, I came across a long forgotten wooden box filled with some of my old art, Star Wars collectibles, music collectibles from the 80’s hair metal era and the 90s grunge rock era, high school notebooks and binders, letters and more.
In this video I will take you on a tour of this long lost box of memories with backstories, photos and video clips from the time!

Am I the only one who gets the nostalgic feeling so strong sometimes it actually hurts? I so wish I had hung on to more things from my childhood to pass on to my kid. Ironically, she adores the 90’s and I could have had so much cool vintage stuff to give her.

It’s bizarre, somehow kids in Washington state in the 80’s seemed to have rare access to video cameras (I’ve seen multiple videos on KZfaq from different people who were teens in the 80’s and they’re all from Washington). I’m 42, grew up in Columbus, Ohio. NO ONE had video cameras when I was young. Not even adults, let alone teens. Maybe it’s just the difference in wealth, as I grew up in poverty. Regardless, I’m glad you and other kids somehow made videos back then because it’s very nostalgic. Also, my initials are JLR. So that is a great song.

I took it with me everywhere. Got footage of us goofing off, partying, cruising, going to the record store, all kinds of stuff! I only have a couple of the tapes left, last time I saw them was in 1990 when I put them in the trunk of a girl's car and never saw them again.

Wow. Just started watching all your videos. I recently took a drive to my 80s home area and was surprised 10 percent of it, was still there. Would be cool if you followed your hand drawn map and took us on that ride now and showed us the changes. I bet you have video of most of those places to add to the story

You should remaster those band tapes and dub like 50 of each and put them on BANDCAMP. I'd totally buy one!

Those Poison flyers are awesome!! I'd love to find a book that contains all the different flyers that were placed on the Sunset Strip by the big bands of the 80s.

Your channel is a beautiful time machine! It shows exactly how back then things were completely different, yet still the same! Makes me appreciate that I can still witness and experience what it was like to live in that time period even though it was before my time. Thank you for sharing all of these awesome memories with us!

You got me when you said everyone is hiding away with their devices. So true. This also saddens me because I didn't have the social life you did. I was a loner in the late 80s and 90s

I grew up in Bellingham Washington, that Ranier t-shirt brought back so many memories...the motorcycle driving through the mountains and the changing gears sang, Ray, Near, Beer...so cool.

Omg!!; We grew up exactly the same at exactly the same time! Wow I grew up on the east coast in Ct. I thoughr it was unique to us but after watching this I see it was a mirror image to the west coast. Cool.

I did the same thing in the 80's making maps like that of the neighborhood and such... I think it was our brains developing a sense of direction and layout in a time without GPS apps.

that towel being in such good condition might be worth more than you realize definitely worth putting up and keeping it safe since the value is only going to go up (unless it's damaged or stained)

@@williamhowerton744 true but the Star Wars towel is in especially good condition considering it's around 50 years old and was forgotten for most of that time.

Great video! Great job keeping all this stuff! I think I remember seeing a photo where Duff McKagan is wearing a Lickity Split shirt, but I had no idea what it meant. Makes sense now, since he's from Washington.
