    It's always a good day to binge watch old R.A. video's and catch up on a cool one like this. That town is one picture postcard after another. And the time and weather was perfect.

    What a nice video and such a cute town. I was hoping you guys would end the video with your wax lips 👄 on. 😂
    Do you guys ever do videos of any small diners that you might eat at ? I’d like to see some good old Southern meals.
    Thank you.

    I love seeing the old buildings & hearing the history of places! Y'all looked like pitiful little wet mice! Well, Shane a little worse than Melody! She looked pretty even in the rain! 😂 Some of the most fun I've had has been in the rain! We got caught in the rain while in the pits helping a friend with his racecar...I was smart & crawled in the racecar after swiping rain off the racecar & getting hubby & friend soaked!! One racecar driver went & sat in a porta potty with the door open! Lol! 🤪😂 Oh the fun I miss having! But thankfully I got y'all to keep me company! Stay safe and God bless y'all! 🎄🙏👍

    That was awesome. My Dad, and brother and I went on a big road trip in 2012 to Tennessee to go to a family funeral. On the way to the house of the family we stopped in Jonesborough, just long enough for a few pictures. I got a picture of that inn at the beginning of your video. I also got pictures of that log house, that Mail Pouch sign, and the courthouse. We also went through Elizabethton and Greeneville. We spent more time in Greeneville than the other towns. I love roadtrips, and I'd love to get back to Jonesborough sometime.

    Great video again and yet another town in which we're going to have yo visit. Is this the town that a big Civil War battle. If I remember correctly they had a battle that was bigger than Gettysburg. I watched it on history channel years ago. It took place on a farm there. I can't remember the name of the farm now. Sorry so late in watching this I'm playing catch up today.
