I am a widowed old senior lady. I don’t dare take myself on road trips. I can see what other states look like from my viewing your channel. Wonderful idea. Thank you so much. Here is a hug.
Wish I could take you with me I’m leaving NJ an going for my birthday on May 15 prob leaving last week of May me and my ex gf were going to go but she left for someone else and I love nature and just lost my pet an mom to cancer and wish me an her could have gone on this trip I try to travel on road trips once a year I believe it’s important in life and America is so abundant with beauty an nature you can spend years traveling non stop and still find new beauty
NC my home . That's why I like calling N C home. We are beautiful from the Mountain Tops to all across the Piedmont till you get to the beaches. One beautiful state.
Kinda funny..we left Saturday morning after the shooting in Laughlin('02)and road straight across the Country to where you are now..the Cherokee Survivor Rally, at the Casino. Stopped at the Spring car show in Pigeon Forge, road thru the Smokies, then Tail of the Dragon, before heading back to NM. Moved to Tenn later that year. Riding the Harley is the best way to travel. But I'm older now so I will be pulling the H-D, but have all the time in the world. Stay safe. ✌
hello i had a terrible day at work today and when i got home i didnt know wat to do what to listen to or what to watch,i stumbled on your video and wow it was magic i needed that! thanks great video and awesome audio your voice is soothing thanks keep it up! god bless and drive safely
It nice for you to tour all these countries for us to see where we live. We have here in southern Alberta Canada and navigate a chance to get down in the states since 2002. Thank you very very much for sharing your journey through all these nice beautiful states may God bless you throughout the years.
One of my favorite craft galleries in the country is across the street from the Museum of the Cherokee. The Qualla Co op is definitely worth a stop if you enjoy authentic indigenous art.
I'm watching you going to Cherokee in North Carolina just one little reminder if you're going to Cherokee and planning on getting the hotel room just remember in the Cherokee city limits they sell no alcohol at all and it's a good drive from the outside towns to Cherokee so you may want to get your beer before you go in the Cherokee just their little heads up.
You don't see any of this out west? Strange! I see it every day where I live in the Cascades. The Redwoods are incredible too. The trees are a different color, but they're just as tall (and taller) and full of bird song! There are rivers everywhere here and waterfalls up and down the roads! You should check out Hwy 58 east of Eugene/Springfield Oregon!
You're driving through my most favorite area of our country. The Blue Ridge Parkway. You have no idea how much I wish I was there to see it with you. Lived in Knoxville Tn for 10 years. I spent every chance I had going through all that area. If you ever get the chance go to Maggie Valley, NC. It's my most favorite place to be. I'm so jealous. I hope you're having a great time.
Soooo LOVE Going on these GREAT Trips, ADVENTURES 😁 !!! Especially with Your Laid Back, Take Your Time, Discriptive and Gentle Way 🙂!!! What a GREAT TREAT 😊 !!! THANK YOU, RUSS !!! You talked on this video, about not getting to see any much Green💚🍏 out there in Arizona, I get it, I'm from the FingerLakes, NYS. I am totally used to and Lovin' the Green We have here. Especially after I was in Show Low for 5 months last year. Although there is still a Green out there, with the Ponderosa Pines and some of the growth along the way🙂. Guess I've taken it for Granted here !!! Though, I LOVE SL !!! So Blessed to be able to have gone there !!! And experience AZ, at least to a degree, bc I'm mostly stuck in NY. By the way, it sounds like You're an Arizona transplant ? So, where were You before, and, how'd You end up there, may I ask ? Anyway, as We were taking the walk to see the Cataract Falls, Epic You said they were, I Noticed how Surreal and Vibrant the Green seemed to be there, along that Pathway, waaay more than is NY's !!!!!! Ok, Back to the Scenic Tour 👍😎
Haven’t been on the Blue Ridge in years , when I was young , used to go every year. This has been a pleasure brought back a lot of memories. Thank you , you did real … cool.
Lived up there in Boone and Asheville for a long time, love being on the parkway especially in winter. Craggy Gardens, Mt Mitchell and a short drive to Linville Falls.
Loving this video ,, My Daddy brought all 4 of us kids when we were little’ He’s since passed and then Myself and my Husband Daniel G. Came through here as well ,, On vacation but now he’s also passed this past yr. So all these memories are priceless ❤ Thank you Mr. Russ ,, for this Trip ,, I’m getting to see again !!! I’m 77 now ‘
Glad you enjoyed your time on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Being an NC resident and only 2 hours from it, I've driven all of the sections, just not contiguously. You missed showing the turn off to Mount Mitchell, the highest point in the east. And Linville Falls, with several miles of trails to a neat waterfall. Also, Rough Ridge at 2:01 is a short but steep hike to an incredible view of Grandfather Mountain, the Linn Cove Viaduct, and the whole valley around it. That parking lot is usually full. Craggy Dome, just north of the visitor center is another short hike to incredible 360 views. You can see all the way to Tennessee!
One thing I didn't see as a follower. The down hill grades from the top down to the speed limit signs. Believe it.. !. If you are hard on the brakes from 40 mph as you roll down hill you can easily coast to 80 easily by the time you get to the bottom. The brakes can fade significantly. Even with a 2009 Dodge Charger freshly rented at Detroit metro airport to a vacation rest on a mountain top in N.C. in Cherokee to get my thoughts together for the next racing season. I got a ticket for 70 mph in a 50. and almost lost the rental car from wide curves going slide-ways.
I've been once to that area and we RV'd staying at the Scott Kerr Lake Army Corp of Engineers Campground at Wilkesboro, NC. Great place by the way. We went to the Parkway and up about 15 miles that day to a couple of gorgeous overlooks driving our then "Toad car". Green grasses on the side of the road. We were still living in Florida back then. I think 2018 was when we were there. As for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, we liked Smokemont Campground on the NC side near Cherokee. No hookups but they allow daytime generator use and have water and clean restrooms.
Love the Veterans Memorial Park! Did not realize that was there! Beautiful! We took the kids camping back 30- 40 years ago, stayed at the KOA in Cherokee! Now my husband and I go to the Casino in Cherokee! Very nice!!
What an amazing drive. I do love driving hover the Lin cove viaduct as well. The visitors center has a trail you can take that carries you under the viaduct.
Hi there, new to your channel from San Antonio. My bff and I will be driving from Tennessee to the Biltmore in Asheville, NC in October. Can't wait!!! Your video was spectacular. Thank you!!
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park! Great job! I do Vlogs Daily here in Gatlinburg, Smokies , Pigeon Forge...So happy you guys made it here. . Beautiful isn't it?? Come say hi! 🏞️🌄🐻
Living in the areas, craggy, mt Mitchell and hearing your excitement makes me realize how we take for granted the areas we live in… My dad and uncles back in the day worked on construction of many places on the BRP, Many locals did back in the day… years ago I had a jeep renegade and in the summer it was awesome to take the top off and ride up to mt Mitchell for a good cool off…. Many places along the parkway their are pipes coming out that have the best mt spring water you can find… you just have to have a bottle… it’s always ice cold… love this video, makes me appreciate home :)
Russ, always enjoy your trips! We took a month long road trip to the west coast a couple of years ago and I used your videos to help plan our route. Taking another long trip this fall to the east coast, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is definitely on the itinerary! Your videos are always so clear and crisp, just like I'm riding in the passenger seat with you! Thanks and keep on truckin'!
Thank you for this visit footage! And the museum. I am not enough percent Cherokee blood but so drawn to it. And the green every where!! Now I really want to plan a trip there❤!
Been there done that, thanks for the memories ❤ I started in Chattanooga, TN and ended in Salisbury NC! They have the best transportation museum in my opinion.
1:05:10 the Plott Balsam overlook, in the distance is where my wife and I are currently looking at some land for sale. It sits at 4500ft with 60 mile southerly views. You can actually see it as it sits just below the story board when you stopped at that rest area. Absolutely stunning area, every time I go I want to never leave but reality always sets in, gotta go back to work. Thanks for taking me back, I'm hoping to get there in July to walk the property again.
Hey there, I love the sightseeing that you travel through, North Carolina. There are 6 tunnels that you go through. I watch your videos. I like mountains and pine trees
Great video! (as usual). Such gorgeous scenery. A dear friend of mine lives near Asheville. I've only been there once so far. So beautiful. Thanks for the wonderful video! Blessings and greetings from central Florida.
Mr Russ, I am wondering what the inside of your RV looks like and what all it offers. The layout of it. I think it would be nice if you could prepare something to eat, sit down and enjoy that! I would enjoy that too. Love going across America with you. Thanks for taking me along.
Thank you for sharing and inspiring my plans to visit the Blue Ridge Parkway! There are 25 tunnels and the shortest is 11'8" so camper vans should be good to go!!!🏞️
I'm currently in AZ working. Been here for a few months and I've watched a lot of your Arizona and Southwest US content for exploration ideas out here. Western NC is home for me so it's really cool to see you exploring my home area.
Great Tour, Brought back many memories. Have been over the Blue Ridge Parkway you traveled & locations you visited. Nature produces the 4 Seasons & you went through right time, as Winter the roads never are great to be on. Ouch. Safe Travels. always, Tommy🤠
Great trip! I was born in Boone NC near the Parkway! I never saw Cherokee although my Dad hoped we could! I’m the oldest of 7 childbirth! We never went on vacation! Thank you for this video!❤️😀🚙🦌
Nice video inside the Cherokee museum but you’ve GOT to go inside to feel the reverence and smell the history. Read everything. Plan on 2 hours to do it justice and revisit in the future to catch a ton of stuff you missed the first time! I’ve been four times and counting.
Thank you for rekindling my memories of the Blue Ridge mountains! The flowers outside the museum, along the painted walkway: rhododendrons. I suspect I’m not the first to tell you! They are everywhere in the Pacific Northwest in spring.
Thank you Russ. I enjoyed it immensely. In the middle to late 70s I lived in Stuart's Draft VA and would go up on parts of the parkway, enjoyed it very much.
Great drive! Things are really greening up on the Parkway. I’m so glad you turned around and got the money shot of the Viaduct for your thumbnail. Beautiful job. There is camping at Julian Price. It’s primitive camping (no water or electric), but it’s there...nice place for a picnic. Thanks for bringing us along. I’m glad you chase the water when you hear it! It’s so nice and relaxing. Have a great week. Jane❤🙏🏻
Hi Russ. Wow another great journey so beautiful i call it driving through Gods country when you're up there in the Mts.I have been to Skyline drive in Virgina and it's similar to the Blue Ridge Parkway, fantastic and you're Rite when you talk about the colors in the fall it just takes your breath away.Thanks again for another grand journey, and i will see you again in your journeys.
You're an early bird, like me. I love going through Gatlinburg and that area. It's so pretty. Seems that our generation may be the last still interested in the past. I may be wrong. B the way, it said there are 25 tunnels on Blueridge Parkway. Your videos make our travel trips much easier to plan. Thanks for the video , Russ!
When I was a kid we the family went to North Carolina every year camping . And would travel over to Gatlinburg one full day. Thanks for your video . Brougjt back many memories .
Hey there, I just found your channel by sheer accident, after having watched one of my favourite channels. I saw your road trip & thought to check it out. A lovely drive indeed & the weather looked so nice. The sounds of nature are always wonderfully captivating & make me feel so relaxed. I've just subscribed & will watch more of your content over time. Cheers & peace✌
I’m still new to your channel. I want to thank you for sharing all your adventures so nicely!!💞👍 I’m subscribed now and I’m finding myself enjoying your travels more and more! I’ve been extremely sick for the past year. It’s real bad so I put in your videos to watch and I always learn something new! You are a Treasure!!!♥️
Hello Russ so thrilled you could visit in North Carolina i actually live about maybe an hour and half from Cherokee N.C. safe travels through the beautiful Tennessee mountains also through beautiful North Carolina
Check it out!!! Simply stunning Russ loved it. I must say it put me in mind of England's Green and pleasent land. especially a national park called "The Lake District" thank you for the ride buddy.
Truly love your videos. My father-in-law watches your channel faithfully and got us hooked!!We travel to Gatlinburg area every year. In 2016, fires claimed 14 lifes in the Gatlinburg area. My Husband and I unfortunately were there in the middle of the fires but made it out... and the mountains still call us back...
Wow ,really cool ,thank you. I would of drove it when I'm driving down from PA to Conway SC but I've looked at it and would add a day onto my 11 hour drive ,it's a pity but it will be on my list . Amazing footage ,well done ,watching from South east Ireland, looking forward to my trip over there in a few weeks. Stay safe my friend . Happy St Patrick's Day
I loved reliving my travel through the Blue Ridge parkway. Just an awesome ride. I was there in November and it was cold and gloomy but mountains were awesome. the Craft Museum was closed when I was there but I am so glad you walked thru it! I got to experience it with you! thank you Russ!
I love the blue ridge parkway.....when I lived in Roanoke VA we traveled it a lot ....it's especially beautiful in the spring and fall. There are 26 tunnels on the parkway 25 in NC 1 in Va

@@05Elantra98GSGang wouldn't mind tagging along. Florida is now 🥵🥵
Hey Russ, I’d keep
My head on a swivel always for snakes, bears and mountain lions. I see a bear each time I travel blue ridge parkway/sky line drive.
I feel the same way.. but I probably will not hug him..😅
YES.I like leaving the driving to Russ!
❤ His great video’s!
There is nothing like Tennessee and North Carolina mountains
Especially in the fall. It’s breathtaking
BEAUTIFUL NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA RAISED IN CANTON N.C. AND IN DANVILLE VA ❤❤❤❤
I went to Camp Daniel Boone in Canton many years ago.
NC my home . That's why I like calling N C home. We are beautiful from the Mountain Tops to all across the Piedmont till you get to the beaches. One beautiful state.
Kinda funny..we left Saturday morning after the shooting in Laughlin('02)and road straight across the Country to where you are now..the Cherokee Survivor Rally, at the Casino.

My great great Grandmother was full blooded Cherokee. Her name was “Comfort Christian”. She lived to be 115 years old.
yeah, ok....
One of my favorite craft galleries in the country is across the street from the Museum of the Cherokee. The Qualla Co op is definitely worth a stop if you enjoy authentic indigenous art.
HEY, Hey, RVerTV Russ, Love The Blue Ridge Parkway,Thank you once again for letting us all pile in.YEA.👍
Gatlinburg is my 2nd home and I love it so!! ❤

LOVE MY BEAUTIFUL STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA !!!
You missed the big dayley even in Cherokee.! That is seeing the wild Elk hurd.They come rt out in the open there in the outside museum area.
Another beautiful place. ❤❤❤
Thanks for the video I'm disabled I can only travel by bus and it's hard I find your videos very calming and it makes you feel like your in the seat !

What a GREAT TREAT 😊 !!!
THANK YOU, RUSS !!!
You talked on this video, about not getting to see any much Green💚🍏 out there in Arizona, I get it, I'm from the FingerLakes, NYS.
I am totally used to and Lovin' the Green We have here. Especially after I was in Show Low for 5 months last year. Although there is still a Green out there, with the Ponderosa Pines and some of the growth along the way🙂.

Though, I LOVE SL !!!
So Blessed to be able to have gone there !!!
And experience AZ, at least to a degree, bc
I'm mostly stuck in NY.

Ok, Back to the Scenic Tour 👍😎
Blue Ridge parkway is beautiful. My family just got back from a cabin there.
Thank u so much for a great drive...it's been on my list for years....you did a wonderful job allowing me to experience it.
My ears were popping just watching. What beautiful footage ❤
Just love your videos and personality, Russ. Been stuck in the house with all this rain here, so it really is a treat, thank you.
Thanks 👍
You’re sweet too, Evelyn
Love your videos!!
thank you
Haven’t been on the Blue Ridge in years , when I was young , used to go every year. This has been a pleasure brought back a lot of memories. Thank you , you did real … cool.
I love NC. Once lived in Hendersonville. I miss it
Lived in Raleigh NC FOR 9 years. Loved it
Lived up there in Boone and Asheville for a long time, love being on the parkway especially in winter. Craggy Gardens, Mt Mitchell and a short drive to Linville Falls.
I’m glad you stopped there and seen that museum too. Thank you very very much.
This was fun and the memories 🙂 thanks 👍
On the road again 🎶
Loving this video ,,
My Daddy brought all 4 of us kids when we were little’
He’s since passed and then Myself and my Husband Daniel G. Came through here as well ,,
On vacation but now he’s also passed this past yr.
So all these memories are priceless ❤
Thank you Mr. Russ ,, for this Trip ,, I’m getting to see again !!! I’m 77 now ‘
Beautiful country there. I'm not 100 percent positive, but I think those were rhododendrons outside the museum in Cherokee.
That stretch of US 441 is such a nice drive!
I love traveling along in your road adventures....the quality of your camera lense is outstanding!
Glad you enjoyed your time on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Being an NC resident and only 2 hours from it, I've driven all of the sections, just not contiguously. You missed showing the turn off to Mount Mitchell, the highest point in the east. And Linville Falls, with several miles of trails to a neat waterfall. Also, Rough Ridge at 2:01 is a short but steep hike to an incredible view of Grandfather Mountain, the Linn Cove Viaduct, and the whole valley around it. That parking lot is usually full. Craggy Dome, just north of the visitor center is another short hike to incredible 360 views. You can see all the way to Tennessee!
We’re you able to visit Cades Cove and drive around the loop? If not, a must see your next trip.
Hello from Gatlinburg! I just left in comments how he missed Clingmans Dome and New Found Gap 😊🌄🏞️
Thanks for sharing North Carolina Beautiful mountains , Even more Beautiful looking at it on my TV

This video is super awesome. Loved the museum. Thank you for sharing. I plan to visit.
Hello from Gatlinburg!! I was just there 2 weeks ago...I've watched this before but wanted to say hello again 🏞️🌄
Hello there!
Beautiful scenery!! I found most of Alaska’s water however to be very clear and beautiful rather than silty.
Been there done that, thanks for the memories ❤ I started in Chattanooga, TN and ended in Salisbury NC! They have the best transportation museum in my opinion.
1:05:10 the Plott Balsam overlook, in the distance is where my wife and I are currently looking at some land for sale. It sits at 4500ft with 60 mile southerly views. You can actually see it as it sits just below the story board when you stopped at that rest area.

Lovely little change of pace. Always enjoy your videos whether on land or on sea 😁
Thank you for sharing this beautiful drive! I’m stuck at home, so I really appreciate your travels!! Enjoy!!
Beautiful Scenery! Thanks for Sharing Russ!
Nice museum!❤

Mount Mitchell is the highest peak east of the Mississippi.
beautiful
Great trip! I was born in Boone NC near the Parkway! I never saw Cherokee although my Dad hoped we could! I’m the oldest of 7 childbirth! We never went on vacation! Thank you for this video!❤️😀🚙🦌
If I didn't know better, I'd swear I was listening to my brother. Great vid. Tganks
Thank you so much for sharing your adventures. I’ve driven all of the BRP in North Carolina over the last 50 years. It’s an amazing experience.
We are dying to get back to North Carolina! Thank you for the sneak peak!!!!
Nice video inside the Cherokee museum but you’ve GOT to go inside to feel the reverence and smell the history. Read everything. Plan on 2 hours to do it justice and revisit in the future to catch a ton of stuff you missed the first time! I’ve been four times and counting.
Beautiful. We hope you can visit the spectacular Outer Banks of our state.
Thank you for rekindling my memories of the Blue Ridge mountains! The flowers outside the museum, along the painted walkway: rhododendrons. I suspect I’m not the first to tell you! They are everywhere in the Pacific Northwest in spring.

Very good driving back to review a former traveling thru the city meeting with a precious friend and her family....I fell in love with the area ❤

Check it out!!! Simply stunning Russ loved it. I must say it put me in mind of England's Green and pleasent land. especially a national park called "The Lake District" thank you for the ride buddy.
Truly love your videos. My father-in-law watches your channel faithfully and got us hooked!!We travel to Gatlinburg area every year. In 2016, fires claimed 14 lifes in the Gatlinburg area. My Husband and I unfortunately were there in the middle of the fires but made it out... and the mountains still call us back...
Wow ,really cool ,thank you. I would of drove it when I'm driving down from PA to Conway SC but I've looked at it and would add a day onto my 11 hour drive ,it's a pity but it will be on my list . Amazing footage ,well done ,watching from South east Ireland, looking forward to my trip over there in a few weeks. Stay safe my friend . Happy St Patrick's Day
I loved reliving my travel through the Blue Ridge parkway. Just an awesome ride. I was there in November and it was cold and gloomy but mountains were awesome. the Craft Museum was closed when I was there but I am so glad you walked thru it! I got to experience it with you! thank you Russ!
