    There are 12 of living in a nursing home and watch all your movies. We just love seeing all the places you and that woman visit. We are simply floored over the cost of the food you eat. We all get a hoot out of all your movies and sure hope you make some more. Our days are numbered but when JESUS comes to get us the we are headed for an eternal vacation. None of our gang had much money but I sure remember my mom in the front seat going to visit kin folks and mom used to have a hunk of red bolony, velveeta cheese and a big onion with a loaf of bread. We ate like kings and once in a while we would get some manage. Daddy always had a pinknik jug we drank from. Now you and that woman take care

    Glad the rod-runners showed up! But also glad I won't be there! lol! I would love to see all the old cars......but I can't handle those crowds, and the noise! Have a great weekend! 😊

    Delightful Happy Days, Juke Box scene in this diner.I love the atmosphere, and fairly priced food looked tasty. That banana split is enough to activate anyone’s sweet tooth. The strolling through the beautiful display of restored classic car was a very memorable experience. Glimpses from the past only more pleasing to the eyes. Very enjoyable. Thanks for letting us stroll down memory lane.

    Oh I love Mel’s Diner. The food sounds fantastic. The salad looks good. Dawn’s grilled chicken salad looked oh so good, and Will’s patty melt looked awesome. The Rod Run was cool. All of the cars and even a Winnebago looked so awesome. Thanks for letting us tag along to look and drool, lol. ☺️☺️☺️

    We were there the 10-14, the rod run made traffic crowded, but I loved seeing the cars. We went to Mel's twice because family members liked it, I would say food was okay at best but the theming and servers were good.

    Love the videos. My wife’s family lives in Pigeon Forge. Maybe in your future videos suggest the the best places to park or tram in to get to the restaurants. From personal experience I had to do a trial by error to locate the appropriate or easy parking areas to use.
