    At 72 years young, this Okie's grandparents were born in the 1800's in the hills of both KY and Northern AR. They moved to Indian territory (later Oklahoma), and built old log cabins, barns, and buildings just like these shown. Even most of my Aunts and Uncles homes were like these. Brought tears to my eyes just looking at them. Grandpa also played the fiddle and banjo by ear. Excellent player that could flat dance with the best of 'em. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

    If I might respectfully ask...have you ever considered making a video about how the folklore of the Appalachias is directly tied to the Ozarks...especially since both are so similar and most of us "Ozarkians" can trace our decadence directly from the Appalachias back to Scots/Irish....??

    Love Cades Cove, many picnics at the Henry Whitehead place. It was peaceful and not traveled as much as the loop. Rich Mountain Road takes you back to Townsend, but it’s been years since we took that road. It’s very winding and rough the best I remember.
    Really enjoyed your singing at the Old Methodist Church. I know they used to allow weddings to be held in the old churches, not sure if they still do.
    Your song reminded me of a childhood memory. I remember my parents having a record album called Flight Final. That record was like a reenactment of boarding a plane flight where the destination was Heaven.
    Thanks for the memories and the Cades Cove trip.
    Have a blessed day!

    I love Cades Cove the first time I saw that one cabin with that open meadow behind it and the image of the mountains in the distance I thought what a magical place it was. Imagine living there sure it was hard but I’m sure if you were a spiritual person that view would reaffirm your belief in a creator. You familiar of the story of Christy Huddleston. I always loved that book Christy full of interesting mountain charm.

    • @TheAppalachianStoryteller
      @TheAppalachianStoryteller  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Deb! Yes that is a Cantilever Barn. It looks odd because the footprint is so small, but there is a reason for that. You see, tax accessors taxed each building by the square feet of its footprint. Appalachians resorted to building barns like this with a smaller footprint that resulted in less taxes! A bonus was that the smarter cows had a place to stay dry during rain.
