All of these towns were alive and busy in the 1950-60's. I was born in 1952 and these towns were part of my life. Sad to see them decaying.😢 Makes me sad but glad to see you there Adam!! That was a sugar cane mill I am rather sure. I saw them in action. A mule would make circles grinding the sugar cane into juice. Man I am feeling old....🙄My maternal granfather lived in Blackmon, Florida. So much of my history in those old towns. Thank you for this video!❤

I was going to say that device was the same thing. I used to do some interpretative historical volunteer work at several of Florida's historic state parks. One of them is The Dudley Farm located not far out of Gainesville in Alachua County. The farm is a working farm that dates back to Florida's pioneer days. Among one of the things the volunteers do in December of each year, harvest sugar cane to make Sugar Cane Syrup. There are mules on the farm that get hitched to one of those to grind the cane to make it ready for further processing and bottling.

Per Two Egg historian Dale Cox: According to Mr. John Henry Pittman, who for many years ran one of the stores in Two Egg, the name originated when two small boys came into the store day after day to trade two eggs for a small amount of sugar. The owner of the store was having a bad week and, in frustration, made a remark that included the line, "This is nothing but a "two egg" town." A traveling salesman (or "drummer") was in the store at the time and began to spread the story. The name caught on and before long the community, previously called Allison, became known as Two Egg. The name first appeared on State Highway maps during the 1940s and remains there to this day. Other versions differ slightly, but that's the story in a nutshell.

There were several stories of how Two Egg got it's name floating around when I was a young man growing up in the Florida panhandle. But most people agreed that this one was the most likely. I even stopped at Two Egg several times over the years when this store was still open. I even had a t-shirt that had, "I Went to Two Egg University" printed on it. And from you knowing the story of how Two Egg got it's name, then I'm sure you know what that was supposed to be.

It was supposedly kept at the mental hospital in Chattahochee and moved to Tallahassee later where it went missing .We live just across the state line in Alabama so are familiar with all these little holes in the road .My wife likes to vist Tate's Hell and Victory Bridge in this area among other sites .I think she has some older Two Egg memorabilia she can send you if you like .She has tons of old memorabilia from all over Florida especially the panhandle area .I will check with her on it .I am really glad to see you putting out videos again .Stay safe out there .

I canoed down the Flint River from just south of Atlanta way back in 1954. I was 10 years old. When the river became a big compound we took the canoes over and put in on the Suwannee River where it exits the swamp and paddled to the Gulf of Mexico. 500 miles and took almost three weeks. I love the rural south.

In Oct 2018 Hurricane Michael came ashore as a Cat 5 in Mexico Beach and maintained a Cat 3 into S GA. If you notice trees bending in one direction and huge pines broken in half, as well as many road signs still show the damage that devastated the area around Chattahoochee and surrounding area. 3 years ago you would have seen a lot of blue tarps covering damaged roofs and huge piles of debris throughout the area. Most of the uprooted trees have been removed and roofs replaced.

Thank you for giving me a window into my past - it's pretty obvious that 'life' is transitory - nothing left but the wind, the grass & cows - so, I wonder why we, as people, are so cruel to one another - at the end, nothing left but the wind, weeds & cows - wish we could just relax, enjoy each other & the land ...

I think that is a sorghum mill that you said was a grinder. They have one at Cades Cove working sometimes:)

noticed the little free library stand near the train car in the small park. Thank you for showing off the beaten path for those of us who aren't able to get there!! I really enjoy your small town vlogs.

In the early 1800’s, Two Egg was known as Allison, Florida. Many families made their fortunes there as planters. There were plantations up to 7,000 acres in size being farmed in the area. But a 100 years later, by 1930 and the depression, most families living in Allison were living on not much mor’n pride. It was a hard scrabble life in Jackson County at that time. My father, who was raised in Cottonwood, told me that no one in that part of the country, Florida, Georgia, or Alabama, had any money. Times were hard and families were doing all they could do just to survive. Families, children, and animals were daily fighting off hunger. Part of the daily routine was for mothers to send their children up to the store to barter for goods. Fresh eggs were acceptable currency at most general stores. They’d barter for “Two Eggs” of sugar, “Two Eggs” of flour, or “Two Eggs” of snuff, tobacca, or candy. Some of the traveling Drummers (traveling salesmen) observed so many people bartering at the ol’ Lawrence Grocery that they hung the moniker of “Two Egg” on the town. (from wackyexplorer dot com)

There are several stories regarding how Two Egg got its name -- none are implausible, but no one seems to be sure which -- if any -- are the actual truth. I grew up living in Dellwood (which is about two miles south of Two Egg). When I was a small boy (specifically between 45-50 years ago at this writing), my dad operated but did not own Lawrence Grocery; he has been lifelong friends with the Lawrence family. There was a second general store directly across the road in those days; as I recall, it faced north while Lawrence Grocery faced west. I marvel at the idea that Two Egg could EVER have supported two such stores at once. I recall seeing seeing some souvenirs for Two Egg when I was older, mostly t-shirts and baseball caps, I think.

Back before I had family and professional obligations, I loved aimless backroad trips to little places like these. Back then, they were still functioning communities. It's sad to see them like this.

An Adam the Woo festive road trip? Christmas came early. And what an opener - classic back road America summed up in one location: Classic car, abandoned building, curious statues, weird name. Thank you Santa Woo!

I did most of the road stripping down in Jay about a year ago, as well as all the signs down highway 4 through there. Also should have kept going down the road where the Napa is, nice little coffee shop with all kinds of old street signs and relics hanging on the building. Also the berrydale forestry camp was a prison for working to work in/on blackwater state park out that way closed about 3 years ago now.
