Instagram - AdamTheWooATW Highly doubtful I will ever have a better cow moment that what happened here . Incredible

I live in a small Oklahoma town. This is cute seeing someone amazed at what we see everyday. ❤️. I have a cow in my yard lol

The way you've shot these videos with the long steady shots, the calm but engaging commentary, the intentional exclusion of any background music, the focus on scenery and history rather than people, you've really managed to capture the peace and seclusion of these locations. Such a lovely, peaceful set of videos. Sitting here in India, I didn't think I'd find videos of driving in the middle of nowhere in rural USA so engaging.

As a Texan, I am often in Oklahoma. Oklahoma is a good neighbor to Texas.!!

I wish I were in the middle of nowhere right now. Work and life has been a little much, lately. Your nostalgic and romantic views of Americana have offered me considerable relief. Thank you!

The joke is that it’s so flat in western Oklahoma you can watch your dog run away for two weeks.

In addition to a post office and fire station, you can always count on a faded soft-drink advertisement painted on a building, and a dog barking in the distance.

This is a beautiful country especially when you get off the beaten path and do some exploring. Get off of the interstates and take the older highways - you will not be disappointed.

A friend of mine once rode his motorcycle to Slapout and stopped and asked one of the old timers if he knew where the name came from and he replied, " Cause we are slapout in the middle of nowhere." LOL.

It's always funny to see people pump the hose spigots. It's not a pump, just a valve lol.

Always windy... There was a story in my family of relatives that lived in Kansas way back in the day (close enough to Oklahoma) and the father at the time, could put his hat on the side of the barn and the wind would hold it there all day until he came back from working in the field and then he picked it off the barn at the end of the day.

I moved from Long Island, NY to Oklahoma last June. The best move I ever made. I actually did that same drive a few months ago and loved it. So many other beautiful places in Oklahoma as well such as the beautiful lakes. Can't imagine that people would want to leave pristine places like these to move to chaotic big cities. I rather the fresh smell of cow's dung over car exhaust any day, lol.

Have left Oklahoma more times then i can count just to experience the world, And Oklahoma just calls me back home. You haven't even scratch the surface of the Culture or the Sites in Oklahoma. Being A Native American i can say you haven't even begun to experience Oklahoma with a small drive through. You should visit some of the Different small towns and villages in eastern and Central Oklahoma as well. Hope you enjoyed your drive through our state. Me I'm just a Old Backwoods boy. Those Cows were just waiting for you to come by, they are the visitor greeting party. Love it when some one says they are in the middle of nowhere when they are actually in the middle of somewhere lol

That siren you heard probably was an actual tornado siren. Tons of places in Oklahoma test their sirens around noon on various days of the week. My town tested them on Fridays.

I can die so happy now that i saw those precious cows hopping over the fence. That entire scene was amazing!!!! Love.

I live in England and used to love taking my car,out some days and just heading off into the country. Lost my job and car, but I'm only in my 40's and it will happen again. Must be very different in such vast spaces such a America. All these empty derelict towns, villages and areas. It's as if people just gave up and left. Leaving cars and possessions. 👍🏼from England 🇬🇧

Having grown up around western Oklahoma and the Texas panhandle, I remember all those little towns in the 50s. They were alive and had some opportunity in them then. It is rather sad seeing them now dried up and empty.

These are the kind of videos that got me hooked several years ago. Would love to see more cross country vlogs.

I actually went to school in Hardesty Oklahoma and now live a few miles from slapout. Small world.....

I love my state welcome to the great state of Oklahoma .

I just want to burst into song: Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweeping down the plain. Where the waving wheat can sure smell sweet When the wind comes right behind the rain.

Drove through Slapout and Hardesty, Oklahoma many times over the decades. Never thought that someday there would be an Internet and KZfaq with me seeing these places again. 😂

This was an especially good day. The cows, freeing the tumbleweed and the old school wind farm. And a special thank you for all of the old theaters have shown on your road trip.

Cool, my hometown of Mangum, Greer County, Oklahoma! That watertower with the "tiger popping out" was used in the opening credits to Toby Keith's movie, Beer For My Horses.

Been in Oklahoma for 10 year and I’m still not used to that siren everyday Saturday at noon. 😂 I get scared every time. 😂🤦🏽‍♀️

The cows jumping over the fence made my day...lol.

Adam, I love the story of the old gentleman who had a small store in NW Oklahoma. When asked for an item he didn't have he'd say, 'We're slapout!' True story.

In the late 1960's and early 1970's my father was a small time preacher who dragged our family over the many miles of Oklahoma to spend Sunday at a church in some out of the way town. I've seen most every little town in Oklahoma. Thank you for filming and sharing your adventure. It brought back some memories.

The wind was one of the reasons my parents left Oklahoma. Blows all the time. God bless it.

The cows jumping the fence might be one of the most epic moments in WOO history

I envy you being able to travel open roads like that.

I love the old small towns. I can't help wondering what they were like in their heyday. Great video.

The 2 cows going back over the fence was the best🤣🤣🤣🤣

Best part of my morning! Wish I could be out doing the same

Was military based in Altus OK, and know about / been through those places. Went to church in Mangum and got married there. Brings back lots of memories.

Born and raised in Oklahoma. I LOVE the Saturday noon time sirens. Heard them every single Saturday of my life. It reminds me of life and makes me feel alive 🤣!

Thank you again for another wonderful road trip. My cousin helped invent the round haybailer during a wire shortage when it was hard to get wire for the rectangular bails. Thank you for stopping and letting me see the windmills. I am very old and I hate the new windmills. There are no words to express the joy you brought me when you stopped at Slapout. I am 65. When I was in 3rd grade we drove from Tryon Oklahoman to Burly Idaho to visit my sister Mary Lou to see her new baby. We did not have much money so treats were rare but they sold Slapout lollipops in Slapouut oklahoma and I was allowed to buy one. What a fun road trip this was. I have to look for the 4 I've been on. This one was extra special. All these years and I still remember Slapout Oklahoma.

Where the winds go sweeping down the plains indeed!

Did you know there is actually a town in Oklahoma called Nowhere Oklahoma. It’s on the map.

It was hilarious that he was trying to “pump” water with that water hydrant. Lol I have a hydrant exactly like that in my yard. It’s not a pump, you lift for a stream of water and put it down to shut it off.

As we travel the by ways of roads almost forgotten, I have the deepest respect for all those who work the land and raise the animals. It's a life of hard work. You are all greatly appreciated!

A little history for ya about Slapout, Oklahoma. Slapout was named as a tribute to the grocery store owner. When folks asked if he had a certian item in stock and he didn't have it he'd say I'm "Slapout of it"!!! Thus the name Slapout, Oklahoma!!! True Story!!! w.w./Sapulpa, OK

Those cows jumping the fence so cute lol 😂 these videos make my mornings I swear !!!!! 💓

I just found this chanel yesterday and it brings back memories of my drive from Bakersfield Ca. to Lawton Oklahoma. The reason for the drive was to see my son graduate from Boot Camp in the Army. I got to see some of the most beautiful places. Im subscribing and Great videos, thanx for sharing.

OOooooklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain! lol can't help to think that

"Be free, tumbleweed! Be free!" You add a lot of character to your adventures.

I love the open plains, kinda like being in the middle of the ocean without water

Friendliest folks I met were in small towns in Oklahoma. Struck up a conversation with a farmer in Wakita once. Loved it out there.

"Free the Tumbleweed!" T shirts now available.... lol

Thanks for. Bringing a part of America forgotten and sadly so

My family's roots run deep in Oklahoma. My sister and numerous family members still live there. There's so much cowboy,outlaw and native American history there. The old cemeteries are very cool to visit.

The nicest people live in Oklahoma....

Oh my goodness..... those might have been my familiy's cows.... they were definitely black angus and your were near Slapout... too cool.

I played a couple gigs at the Martha town hall! Swingin' crowd.. Swingin' crowd :)

The cows on the wrong side of the fence 13:29 then getting busted and crossing back over the fence and then back into the field was Epic. :) Peace

As kids my cousin and I would giggle forever over the two small towns located off I40. One being called Nowata and the other Lotawata!

I'm from around the area of Miami (My-Am-A), Oklahoma. Seeing your video had me wishing I was back home. Living in San Diego, and sure miss the open spaces and the wind! Thanks for your posting.

It’s so windy in Oklahoma that the turtles roll like tumbleweeds.

I recently had 5 strokes. This has sparked the desire to travel our country. This is an awesome series and great idea, to see some forgotten areas of the U.S.A. God Bless You...

You truly capture the texture of Americana. The sounds, the feel, with just the right amount of humor and commentary.

I'm always happy to see you cover towns in my home state!

Those cows went back over the fence and I just cracked up !! 😂😂😂 HAHAHA...!! Adam said , I won't tell anyone . Your secret safe with me . That's was so funny...!!

I'm a Tulsa native. Thank you for making this awesome video of my home state!

My granddad use to deliver groceries and such to a lot of these small towns back in the early sixties. Little mom and pop stores. He knew where these little out of the way places were.

There's a road, in Oklahoma Straighter than a preacher Longer than a memory And it goes, forever onward Been a good teacher For a lot of country boys like me Nowhere Road ----- Steve Earle

We actually do have a place called Nowhere in Oklahoma. It’s over by Ft. Cobb lake

Oklahoma's favorite son, Will Rogers, famously said that when the Okies fled to California during the 1930's it raised the average IQ of both states.

The "noon whistle" lol. That was them testing the tornado siren.

The Great Plains have their positives, loved traveling throughout but never wanted to live there. The people are the best.

You can see everything, and nothing all at the same time!

I love my state!! I'm from Idabel Oklahoma... Please don't judge me for those who have been there 🤦.. I'm one of the good guys!!

The cows returning to the pasture is toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny.

Hi Adam I remember using pay phones all the time, back in the 90's when I was in 20's the cell phone-smart phone changed everything. Great video.

The cows were like “ah man, we got seen! Time to go back in 😒” 🐄 🐄 ...that’s so funny 😆

Loved seeing these images in OK.. my grandparents lived in Martha and Mangum some 40 years ago. Brought back memories!

I would not even try to do what you did. All alone through these empty areas. You have more guts than me! Very nicely done.

Hey Adam! Thanks,once again,for getting my day off to a great start. Be safe and travel on my friend, travel on indeed!

It's interesting how different Western Oklahoma is from Eastern Oklahoma. It's a completely different universe. I'm find of both having worked all over rural Western Oklahoma and being from far Eastern part of the state. Thanks for showcasing the land that time forgot.

I lived in the Tulsa area back in the 1980s and had a booming good time. A very wholesome atmosphere there. The wind really does come sweeping down the plains while the presence of god is felt everywhere. I visited the pan handle for a week back in the 90s... a totally different atmosphere there as it was slap out in the middle of no where. Lonely even. Thanks for showing this Woo... I appreciate the memories.

I’m pretty sure those were the far side cows They just finished putting out their smokes before he came along

Never thought I would see Willow, OK in a KZfaq video. Used to have friends living there until they moved to Amarillo.

Oklahoma Cows eat "Happy Grass" and learn to jump fences with our hunting pack mules!!! By the way, that water pump you was pumping on... well it's not a pump handle. Push down it shuts off, and pull up to turn on. When you push down it drains the water out of line to keep it from freezing in the winter!!! w.w./Sapulpa, OK

I lived in Chattanooga, OK southwest of Lawton. That was my favorite place I’ve ever lived. I miss Oklahoma so much

I was born in Tucumcari New Mexico. But moved back to Oklahoma when I was three years old. Been here in Northeastern Oklahoma ever since. Love it.❤️ Yes the wind was blowing pretty hard today and it's Jan. 5 2022. It's so cold. I don't like winter at all.

I really enjoy watching this journey through Americana.

All these Sleepy towns you are traveling through. I find your Videos in this series fascinating. Thank you very much Adam for shooting and sharing them with us.

I live in Oklahoma, and have always wanted to just drive around the state to these small towns like this video.

Adam, you are a true Knucklehead and I love you for it. Lots of thanks for the righteous views and laughs.

Hi Adam! Thank you for such a great series. Off the beaten path seems the way to go. This stuff is therapeutic. Causes one to slow down and take a gander. Thanks again. Lovin it!!

GREAT THANK YOU brings a smile across my face

I got a friend and she lives in oklahoma now i understand her better.

Beautifully composed shots, that really bring out the color and the shapes. So much good stuff, so many memories of family car trips along these roads and so many like them. Thank you.

Love the old station wagon. My family had station wagons. Fun to have sleepovers in. Awesome Dr. Pepper building. Super highways killed small towns?

Born and raised in that fly-over state!

I really enjoyed that! Hauntingly beautiful open spaces and vestiges of Americana that have disappeared in many places.

This is so good to see the serene and untouched, historical places. The countrysides and old towns have an amazing feel.

I think this is going to end up being one of the best series you've done in a long time. I'm loving these adventures.

OKLAHOMA! Where the wind comes sweepin down the plains. It's so bad in the panhandle sometimes that it's almost impossible to stand upright. Thank you for the great views of the back roads of America.

You wanna see an old ghost town, go to Picher/Cardin Oklahoma, it’s an old lead mining town, many tall chat piles. The towns people were bought out to leave due to the lead in the water and ground. Then, got hit by a tornado.

I have spent the last two days with you ,as you traveled across my state of Oklahoma and southern states.thank you .
