I was wondering if the horses could be allowed to see, covering their eyes in the woods or fields doesn't seem necessary...
Blinders are used to keep their peripheral vision limited so they don't get spooked, but they can still see in front of them.
Appalachia is pronounced App-A-LATCHIN . this woman needs to know the proper way to pronounce it.
*_"Ramshaklia" ..._*
My bet is that Madagascar is the moonshine capital. Right now 90% by volume costs about $6 for A 20 liter plastic jug. AS MUCH AS YOU WANT AND NO ONE QUESTIONS.
Nothing wrong with shine, marijuana, or poppies. Free people don't ask permission.
Or pay extortion fees.

Americans helping Humanity Thank you everyone who is helping in any way ! The destruction is massive
Tom - another well done episode featuring our beautiful area! Thank you!
There's plenty to be ashamed of..it's destroyed countless families and lives..
When I was stationed in Little Creek, Va……. Sailors KNEW ‼️”Rumor” says that there were certain tanks aboard US naval ships that. . . .😳
That is awesome!
I've tasted alot.....Never got the opportunity to taste Popcorn Suttons brew.
They grew there corn Made There syrup And Shine kept it Quiet and Sheriff light foot never did Catch them
unfill 1974 Nacogdoches To Wasa Dry County my grandfather quit alcohol In 1940 He knew the Shiners Ran With many of them
it use to sell for 2 dollars a pint in 1965 in garrison tx
shine Was Made all over the States where you could grow Cornit was more money
Cleanest laundry in town with a cup full of moonshine!!!
It was good for so many things ..not just drinking!
Cave City Kentucky!....whoo whee!
Love this!!
Is there A way to kill the kerosene taste in high proof moonshine?
It’s a very history in this country and yes the Appalachia Moonshiners did their liquor well. In Minnesota there were distillers also and back then good enough to sell it to top places in the Twin Cities or Chicago in big demand. Some had to sit in the click for it and some took the blame to keep others out. I don’t consider them criminals but you didn’t trust few people because a bribed could get you a lot of prison time.
her self knitted hat puzzles me.
Listening to Neva Hart repeatedly mispronounce Appalachia/Appalachian was grating and distracting.
We've heard that from others, but keep in mind that it is pronounced both ways in different parts of the country, and while we say it one way, we'd never correct a guest we're interviewing to tell them how they should say it.
Damascus is back on its feet
Sorry, man. That's not Appalachian food. Looks more like a French restaurant. My Appalachian food was chicken and dumplins, fried green potatoes, sausage gravy with homemade biscuits, etc.
Appalachia is a large and diverse region. We definitely value traditional regional cooking and cover it regularly, but there are all kinds of food in Appalachia.
@@BlueRidgePBSEchoTV That's true. But have you ever covered a young boy going out in the woods with his 22 rifle to get squirrels and rabbits to feed his family?
My great Aunt still has a quilt frame on a pulley system in here homes main living area. She lives in Oklahoma. Thus. You CAN find them across the Nation. I have the frame and pulley system, but it is not installed, and I am in Arkansss.
Aha🎉🎉
VA needs to get out of the liquor business and let the market decide who sells what, and where they sell it. If the Feds want to get their slice of the pie, then let them try.
Actually moonshine stills were in just about every southern state.
Absolutely, and a lot of northern and western ones too. But Franklin County, VA lays claim to Moonshine Capital of the World, in part due to the large number of stills and its importance to the local economy. The largest still bust in the country was in our region.
I need to add that a better source than online for new, high quality quilting cotton is local quilt shops. There you can see and feel it before buying, and you’ll be contributing to your community and helping to make a living for the owner and employees.
Of course we always advocate shopping local. Thanks! For some in rural areas it might not be an option, but if you have access to a high quality shop it's a great choice.
Great interview
Thank you! They were both a treat to talk to.
The Secular Society....🙄
I love making Jelly rolls. I think it is my praise to my grandma Ward. She was an amazing quilter. (Dunbar West Va.)
Does anyone know where to purchase that Mount Rogers, Virginia topographic shirt that Michael Wright has on at 3:18?
I’d guess you can get it at his shop! @adventuredamascus. (Adventure Damascus)
I'm pretty sure the shop owner at Adventure Damascus grabbed it off the rack to wear for his interview, so I'd start there!
I live there
I would like to make a statement in regarding to the comment that was made about the hanging quilt frames that only the Appalachian people was noted for. It’s south of Louisiana that’s all we have ever did to put a quilt together. Was homemade frames tied with small ropes to the ceilings and raised up the time wasn’t being quilted. The frames were helped together with nails that went through holes to haul the corners together as they work quilted smaller they were able to short the length for easy reach. Those were the days that people didn’t have yardage either than feed, sacks, scrap pieces, cut and paste one at the time with a cardboard template pan to the fabric with pens. It took a lot of patience and a lot of time to construct a quilt. The failing was cotton and I’m still have one today to prove it lol. How on earth did they ever quilt through that thick batting is an amazing thought.❤❤❤❤❤❤ and much appreciated or ever bit of it was done by hand❤. Happy quilting.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My great grandmother and a great aunt had quilting frames that came down from the ceiling. I would have liked to have it? But it wasn't to be. She lived in Oklahoma.
It’s amazing how these traditions are carried on across states.
Maybe the daughter is at fault… geez why is always the parents??

Apple-at-cha
Thanks for making this interview happen, y'all! Frank was my maternal grandfather; very interesting and very disciplined man. I was his sole assistant to the museum, mainly keeping it clean and helping out with displays/inventory. I also love learning about Appalachian history and culture, and antiques in general - definitely got it from him lol. I remember him telling me about and showing me this very interview after he did it. I was very happy his museum got the attention it truly deserved, for once, since he'd only ever open it to the public once or twice a year (during which I'd always be there as an attendant. I was always glad to see what little visitors we got.) This was a great way to show off his labour of love to more people. After his passing this summer, though, the fate of his museum is uncertain. I'm hoping I can do something about it to keep it together. At least, if it does get disbanded, I will have the memories and this video to remember it by. RIP, my Poppa. And thank you again, Blue Ridge PBS.
Thank you for sharing these stories of Frank Kilgore. He was a true gentleman in every sense of the word.
This is crushing! My wife and I have so many great memories of Damascus , it's people, The Creeper Trail, Hwy 58, Whitetop, The Highlands. Did Helton Creek area get destroyed? God please help these great people.
They are showing tremendous resilience. I don't know about Helton Creek, but it was a historic rainfall. We'll be going. back in a few weeks to document the progress.
My husband and I are riding the creeper from Abington to Damascus tomorrow. We had made plans several months ago to do the creeper from Whitetop. Praying for this sweet town of Damascus.
I hope your ride was lovely. We're having fantastic fall weather right now.
@@BlueRidgePBSEchoTV yes, the ride was perfect... ate lunch at Wilson's Cafe next to Sundogs. The trail was immaculate.
Prayers for my hometown
