Awe this brings back family vacation memories and makes me wanna camp!! Your meal looks scrumptious! Nothing like campfire food! Love you guys. Note: I will only camp in the fall or winter...best nights sleep and less chance for unwanted critters and bugs❤❤❤ Shouldve gone with Bush's country style beans❤❤❤
I enjoyed watching this camping adventure. And always enjoy seeing you 4 together. You all would be a blast to hang out with. Thank you for your adventures. 😊
We used to tent camp all the time, even when our kiddos came along. Now in our 60's too many little aches and pains to do tent camping, so we rent cabins. But those precious memories!
Now I gotta try roasted Rice Krispy treats, sounds delicious Y’all could’ve roasted the weenies for the hot dogs I’d been thinking it should be time for y’all to see the fireflies, I was waiting for ur video ☺️ Thanks for sharing them with us Thanks for sharing the setup too I’m really glad y’all didn’t get a visit from a bear 🐻
I remember seeing so many fireflies growing up nowadays we see maybe a few every year. We sure had fun running around in the evening chasing them. Dawn, I would be the one to drop my treat as well hehe
Glad you all had a wonderful time! It is fun getting together with your friends over campfire cooking and a campfire!! The Dr. Pepper beans sound interesting!
Awesome video! Great group of friends....thanks for showing the synchronous fireflies! My son recently went on a camping trip and said they roasted marshmallows and used fudge stripe cookies instead of graham crackers and chocolate.
I'm so excited that you two were able to see the fireflies! I missed it by two weeks and this makes me even more excited. looks like a great time. Love the camping snacks!
I love your videos...You and Dawn always enjoy yourselves so much...Looks like you have so much fun wherever you go...I've always loved the mountainous regions through the States...I've briefly been through the Smokies on our way to Florida...I've spent more time in the White Mountains in New Hampshire and Green Mountains in New England...They are all so beautiful to drive and explore through...I really want to go to Gatlinburg and DollyWood from watching your videos...I'll continue to enjoy your videos...Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦
I love this video it was absolutely beautiful and I use to catch fireflies when mom and dad and me had land and but I let them go and dance with them we had this huge yard. This brings back memories for me thank you guys for doing this it made me smile. ❤️
Awesome,,, that looked fun.. for awhile I didn't know if it was supposed to be about a ghosts or fireflies. 😉,, lol.. I just got done telling my son that the rice crispy treats would be good dipped in chocolate, then you said the same thing, Will.. 😊... Thank you for sharing.💞
Loved the video this was actually the first time I have ever seen the fireflies up in the mountains and that was really cool being in Daisy town at night is creepy but looked fun as well.
Looked like lots of fun so glad you all enjoyed yourselves, fireflies are so pretty to watch, the campsite was really nice I really enjoyed the video 👍
Great video. I have always loved watching and catching lightning bugs or fireflies as some call them. Interesting tidbit. This year up here in southern Indiana I tool my gf and her kids to this place I had found by the river that had thousands of fireflies. They were putting on a show like I've never seen them do all my life here in s Indiana and s Illinois. It was like a disco light show. I've never seen the ones in the smokies so I can't compare. I had always heard those were only in the smokies but I think that has been found to not be true. I just know I've never seen that in all my 55 years of lightning bug watching up here. Even in my younger years when I used to see areas with lots more of them, they never twinkled like that.
Who says we didn't get to see those fireflies🧚♂️🧚🧚♀️?? all we have to do is look over at Chris😂🧚♀️🧚♂️🧚that's an awesome shirt🧚♀️ by the way Chris 😊 bet touring those old homes are 👻spooky at night😬especially that army green colored one on the left😂 ...what a fun night 🌙out guess if you can grill burgers🍔 and melt rice crispies without a bear 🐻walking up then you did great🤣😂😂 Thanks for sharing your night in Elkmont🧚♂️🧚♂️🧚🐻🧚♂️🧚🧚♀️🐻🧚🧚♀️🐻🧚♂️
Great video! My family & I love the Smokey Mountains as well and have visited for years. We love watching your videos! Your videos give us great vacation ideas!
I really enjoy camping & loved that you did a video. The fireflies can be a spectacular sight, especially if a person has never experienced them. I use to like watching them go across the river with their reflection. So neat! Luckily no bears visited your campground. Toasting Rice Krispy treats was different. I like good old s'mores. Sometimes we'll do Banana Boats on the campfire. Which are really delicious. It's easy to make: 1 banana per person(sit up in a smiling position, peel back the top part of the peel, not off.) slice the banana long ways in half,not all the way through. 1 Hershey bar broken wedged down into the length of the crack of banana. 1 handful of miniature marshmallows wedged into the banana just like the chocolate . Place the peel back over the top of banana, it acts as a lid . Wrap in foil with the opening at top. Set in fire for approximately 15-20 minutes. Carefully remove the foil packet as it will be hot. The chocolate will be melted & marshmallows toasted. Eat with a spoon.
Will, I must have read your mind, as soon as I saw the Rice Krispy treats I thought about putting chocolate on them. Glad to see the four of you guys and gals together again,
Roasted rice crispy treats. Will have to try this. We take sugar cones, add chocolate chips and mini marshmallows I layers. Wrap in foil toss in fire for around 3 min and eat. You can make them at home, if you don't want to do them at camp sight.
Really enjoyed this video! The four of you are make good videos together! Loved you comment Will that the candle was a city persons fire!!!!! :) :) When Chris scared you!! The fireflies were great! Actually did see some on the video! Thank you for a very entertaining video!
Loved this video, my husband and went camping back in middle 70s with our two sons sometimes had couple of extra kids . We always had a great time we just had a ground ⛺ but not the easy type that's used today. We had a 9x12 tent for all of us. We went Elora Gorge in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Loved this adventure. The bat would freaked me out 😂. We camped when I was growing up. But I'm afraid of snakes, so I'm always looking. Lol I laughed at Dawn when she roasted the rice crispy treats and said it's HOT. So funny. She is such a sweet person. Take care guys .
I really enjoyed the video and watching you set up camp. The stroll through Daisy Town at night was awesome as well! Keep it up! And everything hamburger buns...icing on the cake, haven’t seen the yet in our stores. Great video!!!!
My friend and I packed a screen house and tent and everything we needed for a week into a Chevy geo lol We camped at Waldens Creek Campground that has been around 15 yrs ago our screen house was identical to yours it was screened all around
Looks like y'all had a nice time camping together. I was thinking that your camping experience was coming up and here you are! So glad that there weren't any encounters with bear! Our neighbor up the street was telling me yesterday that there was a big bear in their yard over the weekend. His daughter got a picture of it. We have woods beyond our back yard and that is where the deer and bear wander here in southern West Virginia. I saw a bear in our back yard almost 3 years ago. It came all the way up to the back of our house. I heard it and thought it was a big dog until I looked out the window and saw the big bear!
If you put a piece of foil over the burgers while they cooked it would have helped them cook faster. Good to see you all together again, its been too long
These fireflies are so cool! I hope to bring my mom down next year to see them next year. Looks like you guys had a fun time! Those campsites are so nice! Looks like there's some good places to hammock camp on that site. Glad Chris is okay! It's so easy to trip in the dark up there in Daisytown. I tripped in the dark last time we were there went face first in the dirt! Luckily I just scraped up my knees. - Jan from Adventures in the Heartland

This was fun guys. You two doing travel with a hard sided travel trailer would be fun.even if only a couple times a year.
Will, I must have read your mind, as soon as I saw the Rice Krispy treats I thought about putting chocolate on them. Glad to see the four of you guys and gals together again,
Thanks 😊
What a great time! Would love to see the fireflies someday!
We hope to do this someday! This looks like a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing! ~ Shion and Matthew

Thanks for sharing! I also put a cot in my tent as well. We also get a cottage at Little Arrow Campground in Townsend too in the fall.
Very cool!😊
Loved this! Great video and always enjoy your adventures with Chris and Mindy.
That was a good fun trip to Elkmont. Looks like you had loads of fun
Great video, we call them lightnin bugs here in West Tennessee
We also call them lightning bugs in the south.

Thank you 😊
Camping in bear territory with a tent is not my idea of a good time! Lol!🤪
Glad you had fun, though!👍🏼😊
Really great video. I felt like I was there with Y'all.
