@@SouthernCountryLiving I was just thinking the same thing… I almost couldn’t watch this 😔… my husband died young at 51… we had such plans… hope the two of you fulfill your dreams…don’t let anything you have control of stop you….glad you had a nice trip
So glad to hear that Charlie is doing good. Thank you so much for taking me along on your mini vacation. I'm 74 and I live alone and all my family and friends are gone. I never had children so I'm isolated, but in a beautiful small old gold mining town in the foothills of northern California. I really enjoy spending time with you in beautiful Georgia!
Thanks very much Rosemary. Yes, my brother is doing good. He is 70 years old and he was never married so his siblings is the only family that he has left. Gerald loves to watch TV. He was watching the three stooges. He also loves old westerns. I can imagine how beautiful it is where you live. Have a Blessed week, Calvin and Marie
Calvin and Marie Your trip looked beautiful. What a nice looking town. A change of scenery is good for your spirit. I am so glad you got away for the day. Thank you for taking me along. Cute cabin.
Hi Calvin and Marie...Helen looks like a nice place to take a relaxing trip...The hotel cabin was so cute and to have that river right there with the tubers provided some great entertainment...Glad you both enjoyed getting away!..God Blexx🙏🙏🙏
What a nice get away trip. The drve was just beautiful. I live in a desert area & so nice to see beautiful green trees. The tubers were so fun to watch having a good time. It's so nice just be be in a peaceful place to appreciate what a beautiful place God has created for us. Being quiet & at rest is so healthy. Sitting by that river & hearing the birds & soft laughter is better than going to a spa. Thanks for sharing your well deserved trip. So glad you & Marie were both healthy to enjoy you small get a way. Take care & always enjoy your videos. It's like being back home. Love & prayers. ❤🙏🤗
What a beautiful day for a drive. Enjoyed the driving music very much. What a quaint little town. Good to get away once in a while, even for just a couple of days.
Oh, my! I haven't been to Helen GA in about 20 years. Things have changed a lot since then. Glad you guys enjoyed your little vacation. Sometimes an overnight trip can do as much good for the soul as a week-long vacation. I love watching your videos......I always know they're gonna be something good! 😉👍🥰
Hello Calvin and Marie, I am glad you all had a nice trip to Helen, Ga. I look forward to visiting there as well. Also tell Marie, those Cape Cod kettle chips are the best. Have a wonderful evening.
Hi Calvin and Marie, what blessing it is to take a nice vacation!!! Y'all enjoy yourselves in the beautiful city of Helen because y'all deserve time off for all the cooking demonstrations that you do for us!!! God Bless & TFS!!!
Wow what a beautiful place you both went on your trip. I thought the river was so peaceful I could have sit there all day. And your place you stay at was really fantastic. Thanks for this video and so happy you got to do this and the music you play on your videos is Awesome.
Good evening Calvin and Marie. Sure was a nice getaway. Thanks for taking us along,always good to have a change of pace. Take care. Sending 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
That definitely is a nice place to visit. Watching all the people in tubes go down the river I myself enjoyed. I bet that is fun. I like the cabin where you stayed very nice especially the porch. The idea of no cooking is a vacation! A change of scenery is always good. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm like Calvin, I would love living in a spot like that, minus the flooding of course, but I couldn't do the stairs. ❤❤❤❤❤
What a fun and spontaneous trip. Sometimes, just a change of scenery and eating a few things you don't normally get to eat are some of the best vacations. Especially when you can snack on a coke, m & ms, and kettle chips sounds pretty good to me.
@SouthernCountryLiving another fellow Georgian has a TH-cam channel, and he also visited Helen back in January. He walked through the town, so I thought you might enjoy watching his time in the town. It starts around 06:18 th-cam.com/video/_kmDQbLrrIM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NBppZOAjeYAXl-cT He lives in a van and travels around. His lifestyle is a bit unusual, but since you didn't get a chance to walk around the town, I thought you might enjoy this part of his video.
Calvin and Marie thanks for taking us who just love you along for your getaway..It was so beautiful!! I absolutely love your music. Take care and enjoy ❤. Eileen Parsons.
Lovely video! I think us Georgians seem to gravitate to some of the same vacation spots. We love Helen, Pigeon Forge and Panama City Beach also! Thanks for taking us along. I’m glad y’all were able to get away. 💙
Good Evening Marie and Calvin, Thank you for sharing your little get away. What a great spot! Looks like something to do for everyone, whether looking for activities-such as tubing or relaxation and enjoying nature. I really enjoy your videos! God Bless you both!
What a sweet looking little town! That cabin was huge-loved the deck! And Marie, didn't anybody tell you that snacks are healthy on vacation? Glad you enjoyed yourselves ❤
Good day Calvin and Marie, What a beautiful location. I would have to put this thing 👙 to use and go tubing. 😅 All kidding aside that is a lovely location. Thank you for taking us along. ❤💕 Much love, Rennie
That is such a beautiful place…so glad you both got to get out and go there….just having peace of mind is a truly blessed gift…sometimes we need to stop cuz we all get too busy…im glad you both enjoyed it there…sometimes a small get away is better than a long getaway…..❤
Calvin and Marie you have a wonderful time you both deserve time away from everything it so good for anyone to spend time together whenever you can your such a special couple the cabin is so pretty I thank you for taking us a long yes eat out you cook all the time I'm so glad you both enjoyed your trip I love you both ❤️ Shelby
Hello from KY love you and your channel and your family ❤️ So glad you are having fun.Its always good to get away and eat different food.I am leaving for Florida in the morning.Mt son and his wife are taking me to Disney world.Lord almighty I hope I will be ok in that hot sun.Igot the ok from my Dr. Gave to take water pills and drink alot of water.Now how does that work with 50,000 people going to the bathroom?😊 Pray for my health and thank you in advance.❤❤❤
The Moss Family live in Helen. It's always good to get away even for a day. I've seen those shops when the Moss's go into town. Looks like a nice day there. Nice cabin. Marie when your on vacation it's okay to eat junk food. 😆
A charming cabin in a charming town. Looks like you both had a wonderful, relaxing time. Helen, GA reminds me of Solvang, CA, which is a quaint Danish town in Southern California.
Good afternoon Calvin and Marie 👋👋👍😎👍♥️🙏. Hope y’all are having a Blessed day ! 😁. You deserve it. I’m sure you had a great time. Take care God Bless !
Hey Marie & Calvin,So happy for ya’ll! Yes! Thanks for taking us along- it felt like I was there with you- with out bothering y’all!! So glad u both feeling fine. I pray about that a lot. Much ❤ love. And Prayers.😊🌷🌷🌷
❤Calvin & Marie, Friends, I couldn’t be more thrilled if I were on a vacation! If anyone I know deserves a break packed with relaxation, peace, 🕊️ nothing scheduled or planned to do work wise, no cooking, no THINKING about what to cook.🧑🍳 As you said, Marie, enjoying nature. The sounds of the river flowing over the rocks is so relaxing, and aren’t outdoor swings the best?? Sitting outside until or after dark reminds me of when I was a kid and we lived in town. People all up and down the street would be sitting on the front porch and as folks going up the sidewalk would all ask them how they were doing or maybe just throw up their hands. Mom’s would be calling out, “Calvin, Marie, it’s time to come in. It’s dark!” 😂 When you go to the Smokies do y’all ever go to Townsend? Townsend is my Happy Place. It is more commercial than it was the first time I was there which was about the summer before I went in 5th grade or maybe 6th. I’m 74 now. It’s good to know just how much you both can take as far as driving, steps, etc. I could never have done those steps. That was a very pretty cabin. The floors were beautiful. Every room was great. So thankful God blessed you with a safe, restful, getaway and brought you home safely. Also thankful Gerald was doing well. 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
Thanks very much Vikki. You bring back some wonderful memories to us. Yes, when we go to Pigeon Forge we go through Townsend. We've never got a cabin in Townsend but I think that Kim and Jonathan have a couple of times. I'm glad that we were able to get the cabin next to the river because that was our entertainment. The drive and the steps combined was about all that we could handle. We wanted to go walking down the main street but if we had it would have been to much and it would have made our trip home worse. Overall we had a very relaxing and enjoyable trip.
I have heard of this place, but I’ve never been. Thank you for sharing now I know what it looks like ! Marie you eat what you want when you get home . I love the video this is so refreshing Glad you enjoyed your trip and God Bless you both 😊
I visited Helen Ga. Several years ago with a friend . Helen was designed to look like an Alpine village… very pretty! We did the river tubing. It was really fun. You rent the tubes but you have to purchase the wooden sticks to guide and maneuver your tube around in the river. We got pretty wet (especially our backsides lol). We ate at a German restaurant. The food was excellent! Glad you enjoyed you stay.🙂👍
I have been to Helen, many years ago.I loved the shops and the German food was fantastic!! I hoped you tried some of the delicious German cuisine. At least a homemade pretzel ❤ we decided we will go there this year for Octoberfest. Thanks for the video. 😊
I live 4 miles from Helen . My late husband and I moved up here in 2002. I love living up here folks are so nice. My only complaint is the blacks bears love my trash 🙂 so glad you had a good time up here. ❤️
Hey Calvin and Marie so glad you both are doing better and able to take this trip, It’s been several years since I have been to Helen it’s a lovely little village, travel as often as you can my husband and I have been having some health issues and it’s not easy when you want to do things but can’t pray we will feel better soon, love your videos you are such a blessing to me❤❤
I am missing the times my husband and I did things like this. He passed away in 2020. Enjoy every minute you can with each other.
I'm sorry Diane
@@SouthernCountryLiving I was just thinking the same thing… I almost couldn’t watch this 😔… my husband died young at 51… we had such plans… hope the two of you fulfill your dreams…don’t let anything you have control of stop you….glad you had a nice trip

I'm so jealous. Thank you for taking us along Calvin and Marie.

I visited Helen Ga. Several years ago with a friend . Helen was designed to look like an Alpine village… very pretty! We did the river tubing. It was really fun. You rent the tubes but you have to purchase the wooden sticks to guide and maneuver your tube around in the river. We got pretty wet (especially our backsides lol). We ate at a German restaurant. The food was excellent! Glad you enjoyed you stay.🙂👍
Thanks very much

Hey Calvin and Marie so glad you both are doing better and able to take this trip, It’s been several years since I have been to Helen it’s a lovely little village, travel as often as you can my husband and I have been having some health issues and it’s not easy when you want to do things but can’t pray we will feel better soon, love your videos you are such a blessing to me❤❤
Thanks very much. Yes, we are in the same situation. I'm glad that we were able to make this short trip. We will be praying for you and your husband.
