Highlights, Part 7
Просмотров 514 месяца назад
Highlights from earlier videos of my rides through Blue Ridge Mountain towns. Some have been small, and some have been large. Some are old towns with a lone and rich history, and some are young towns with a young history, and some are not towns, but communities. Whatever the case they are places where people are born and raised and that’s what makes a town, city, or community special.

    It's been over 20 years since I've been back to Benton... my grandparents had a farm where the new Polk Co. High School sits and I spent every summer down there as a child. It truly seemed like the summers lasted forever back then. I am a direct descendant of Col. William M Biggs, who was the first clerk of the court for Polk County. Thanks for the video, John.

    I live about 7 miles from the Blueridge Music Center (MM 213) and always find it easier to figure out locations on the BRP if I know what the mile markers are at the location.

    I live in California now but, I was born and raised in the Shenandoah Valley area. I know these roads like the back of my hand. Good times in this town. My first job was at the IGA grocery store across from the family dollar.

    I live 5min from where the parkway ends and Skyline drive starts in Waynesboro VA.Hell I can see the mountain from my yard. Sad part is I don't know any of the places you filmed . I don't think I've been on the Blue ridge parkway in 50yrs. When you live here you kinda take those types of roads and views for granted.😢

    Thanks for your vid. Shenandoah is fun and relaxing to ride. It makes an interesting bookend with Smoky Mountain Park at the other end of Blue Ridge Parkway. I don't know which is better, Shenandoah has great views and less crowds while Smoky has spectacular views and more technical riding but is far more crowded.

    Very small town , not much to do , people are friendly there , the court house he did not show is were the towns people have there events .Every Friday the shop owners closed there stores after work and the towns people will enjoy some good ole music . I love geographics of this town as it is only 20 minutes to Blairsville Ga , and 32 minutes from Murphy NC as Murphy is the last city West of NC and your closed to Tenn essee as you will be from Murphy NC 20 minutes from Duck town Tennessee . We have not decided were to move to either Hayesville or Murphy , as there is more to do in that town .
