    My mom passed 7 19 22 , her last cognitive words were " look at all the beautiful apples!" Her daddy planted apple trees on their property when she was a child. ❤

    My Daddy , Sgt. Charles A. Silcox ,United States Army, passed on December 26th 2021.
    In his last couple months he would be talking to his family that had already passed. We would wake him for his meds and its would startle him, PTSD.
    He would say " Man, why did you wake me up...?"
    Daddy told us stories of Vietnam and the Dairy Farm he grew up on.
    I played and sang this song at his service, right before the 21 guns, and the 2 soldiers folded Old Glory and presented to my Mother.
    God Bless Our Soldiers!
    Thank You Sir for a wonderful song!
    Love You Daddy!!! Thank You for Everything!!! See You Later!!

    reminds me of my childhood and my grandmother and granddaddy. Tears came to my eyes. I’m a veteran and a boxer. I broke down. I’ve been up north for almost 20 years and I want to go home, but due to life I can’t. 5 more years! Please god let me get home. I left as a boy just 18. I’m almost home.

      Agreed. I grew up in the 60s south on "an old dirt road" in a sharecropper tenant house with a creek about a half mile away. Lots of working in the field during the summer but also a lot of lazy days fishing and seeking relief from the heat by jumping in the swimming hole. This song reminds me so much of those simpler times. Brings a tear to my eye every time.

    I think this song takes everyone back to that "one moment" in their childhood. For me, I'm about 11 or 12. My mom was teaching me to skip rocks in a small creek in between softball games. I fell in and had to pitch soaking wet. It was one of the best games I ever had. My coach told me i should be thrown in before all games. My mom has since passed and I would give just about anything to spend that day skipping rocks with her again.

      Agreed! My memory i dont remember how old I was but we went to Durango and walked around all the shops and I got a few small toys (we didn't have much money but always had what I needed plus a little extra, budget allowing) we ate dinner then on the drive back it was night and the way the town and mountains looked that night. I'd give anything to go back to that time. My father passed 3 years ago.

      The trip the old man talks about is the exact trip from my grandpa's place where I lived until i was 5 years old then moved down the road with my folks to where I'm sitting tonight writing this. The field, the creek, the honey bees, the old truck with the fishing poles in the tail gate and the cobbler. I can't hear this song without tearing up over it because he's singing about the road I walked and road my bicycle on when I was little. At least to me it feels like it. 🤛 The only other song that chokes me up this bad is one by Randy Travis " I thought he walked on Water ' th-cam.com/video/eCVw8Qjeg84/w-d-xo.html

    What a story this song tells. Here is a man who was going through a really hard time in his life. He falls asleep and begins to dream about a place where pain was nonexistent and life was carefree. A moment that the cold weather and hunger he was facing seemed like a vacation. Then along comes someone and wakes him up from the relief from the pain he was experiencing. I can totally relate when he says I wish you just left me Alone because i was Almost Home. It would be like climbing that cliff just to get to the top only to fall back to where you started. Powerful powerful song if you really dissect it

      Same ❤ I don't normally comment on anything but omg. this song, I think it is just...I cry every time i hear it, it is so sad and at the same time so sweet. It reminds me of my own childhood growing up in a small SC town, and it also reminds me of my grandmother and listening to her stories of growing up on a little dirt farm in the middle of nowhere, dirt poor, during the great depression with her 8 brothers and sisters, and she was just full of nothing but good memories and funny stories and i loved hearing all of them. She said that they used to catch big ole "june bugs" and then tie a strjng around their leg and they bad a june bug kite for the day 😂 I miss her so much and treasure her stories like diamonds. She lost my Pop Pop when he was 67, they'd been together since the age of 13, and she wore his ring until the day she died at 94 yrs old. The last time i went to see her was 4 days before she died, sharp as a tack right to the very end. She was the last one of her 8 brothers and sisters left, bless her heart. She loved me more than anything in the world and frankly I am blessed to have had her as my grandma for 45 years of my life. She was a fighter, but even the best fighter's give out after so long and the last thing she said to me was "I'm so glad you came to see me today, but I was having the most wonderful dream when you walked in and woke me up, and I'm eager to get back to it! I daid what were you dreaming about grandma, tell me! She smiled and said "Me and Elmer (Pop) were kids again, & we were walking to the creek with our cane poles and a bucket of worms we'd dug up behind daddy's wood shed. And he reached out and took my hand and said I'm gonna marry you someday, u know. And i said, oh i can't wait for the day! And we walking hand in hand both sniling from ear to ear...and we were almost to the creek when I woke up. If you dont mind, i think I'll shut my eyes and get back to Elmer now, he's been waiting so long for me to join him, and i do miss him so... ❤ I said well don't keep him waiting then, and when u see him will u tell him that i love him? She said, oh he knows, and he loves you too, always has. I kissed her cheek and she went back to sleep smiling, and i just stood and watched her for what seemed forever, and then i whispered "Its okay to go now, I know how long you've waited to be with Pop Pop again. And one day I'll join y'all, won't it be fun! That's why i love this song so much its so sad and so so sweet too. ❤

      Many years ago on his death bed, my grandfather spent the last 4 hours of his life speaking in German with his brother. His brother had been dead nearly 30 years and my grandfather hadn"t spoken fluid, conversational German since he was a boy, speaking nothing but German at home.
      My grandfather's nurse was kind enough to tell us all about his last few hours, and said she thought it was interesting that when he spoke there would be the usual pauses as if listening to what was being said to him, etc
      All of this simply went to support what I've felt all my life...that what we're doing here is far from the End Of It.

    Feeling nostalgic today. I remember when this wonderful song first came out and was played on the radio (not often enough, IMO) If I was driving, I'd always have to pull over because I couldn't see through all my tears. The heartfelt words and music immediately take me back to childhood summers in rural Kentucky; such a sweet and simple time. When it's my time to leave this life, I pray that God will grant me the gift of reliving those memories in my final moments, like he so perfectly sings about in this song.
    Craig Morgan, thank you so much for this precious song 💛

I had to pull over because I was crying uncontrollably. . It's one song that brings out the emotions that I rarely let out . But so many moments in that song was taken out of my life . 3 VC en down to falling to sleep in the cold . Deer hunting with my brother . He saved my life because I'd froze to death . Miss my brother Ray so much .

    When i was younger i use to walk through malls or bars and hear country songs and never knew their names but always received beautiful signs from them, now that i am all grown i search them easily.

    I was the mid day air talent at KMOO 99.9 FM the year this was released. I put together two year end shows with listener picks. This WAS the NUMBER 1 MOST REQUESTED and Listener Favorite SONG OF THE YEAR! I am a hard critic and I couldn't have agreed MORE!

    This song is so beautiful! I grew up in Fairfax with woods and a creek behind our house. We played there in the woods and creek day after day. Then one day, the bulldozers came and tore down our "playground" woods to build homes. We were heartbroken. Life seemed so simple back then and I have such fond memories of my childhood and this song reminds me of them.

    Vivid memory of my first time hearing this.. was helping my daddy clean out his garage when it came on the radio.. he turned it up & said "I kno you don't do country but listen, this is a bad ass song!" I remember him grabbing one of his fishing poles for the right now I'd be fishin part lol.. jst a few short months later I lost him to pancreatic cancer.. find myself listening to this at least once a day & always picture him w that fishing pole

      Hello. Thanks for being a great fan over the years.. you send a text through my hangout Gmail. I promise to give a response back. I guess it's a little way of showing my fans appreciation.. I'm now available to meet and greet.

    This song has came to me at times where I really needed it and made me realize that I’m more fortunate than I could ever imagine also when I was overseas and Craig Morgan came to fob shank and put on a concert for us really brought the morale up in my unit the man is the real deal he doesn’t need computer tuning and all that mess just pure vocals and he is just as real of a person as he is a singer not many you can say that about these day anyways thank you Craig Morgan for caring about our troops as you know what it’s like to be one and just being a real human being hard to find these days.

    My dad always told a story about Dyersburg, Tennessee, and him and his buddies in the 30's, saw a plane fly over town (rare sight) so they jumped on their old fixed up bikes and rode down to a dirt road near a landing strip outside of town, and bounced barefoot across a field of dandelions to the airstrip only to find the plane didn't land there. There was a small Mississippi tributary nearby with an old empty houseboat tied off on the edge of the shore line, so they all explored the boat and took turns jumping off into the water. After, drying off in the sun, they jogged back across the field back to their bikes, bouncing between patches of dandelions again, with bees hovering around the patches of the flowers. Dad said he was in the rear, when his barefoot came down on a snake. Said he took off like a rocket, passing everyone to the bikes on the side of the old dirt road. When he got there, bent over from being out of breath, said he couldn't even hardly see his feet, from all the weeds and dandelions stuck between all his toes. God bless that man.

    This is one of my grandfathers favorite songs, he was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago and he’s been in and out the hospital ever since. He was ready to go at first but now I think he just wants to around his family. I love him so much.❤️

    This song reminds me of a great guy I met in West Virginia. He was mowing grass and all these bees came chasing after him.We went 4 wheeling in the hills of West Virginia. I can say it was some of the greatest moments of my life. He was an amazing guy although he broke my heart. I will always have found memories of him! Every time I hear this song it reminds me of those good times. I love this song!
