I am from Canada in New Brunswick (province just above Maine. My daughter lives in Knoxville now but when she first went down there to work, one of the first places she lived was in Greenville. I visited her there a few times. I have driven to Tn almost every year since she went down in 96 but have become somewhat disabled in the last few years so your videos mean a lot to me. Very nostalgic as I’ve been to many many of the places that you film in. Thanks.
Glad you watch these sweet people and their videos!! Greenville looks like a great place to visit. They have taken care of their historical sites. Very clean.
Thank you so much for going to Greenville. The 1st movie I've ever seen in a theater was at the capital theater. It was 1986 carebears the movie lol. They even do like Broadway Type plays there nowadays. You should have checked out the cannonball stuck into the side of the building there in town I believe it's the old Post Office. And the oldest jail in Tennessee is right there in town too. It's kind of creepy they used it all the way up to the early 1980's. I've heard stories of old timers that had to stay in there. In 3rd grade I lived right next to the cemetery. I used to walk the wall around it all the time as a kid. Thanks for showing me one of my favorite views from the top. Brings back a lot of memories. I got to take my wife there over the summer. Andrew Johnson told one of his slaves that's the place he wanted to be buried because of that view. If you guys ever go back again you should seriously think about going up Viking mountain trail off the Asheville highway. There was a old ski resort from the seventies at the tip top. It's like the smokey mountains without the traffic. No traffic Lol Great video hope to meet you guys someday. I too am a Yankee that lived in the South for a short time as a child And I love to come back and visit
Thanks for the video. I love seeing the history of our country. I feel like more of our young people would value where they live if they could hear about and see so many places like this. So grateful to live in the USA 🇺🇸. We all have a history some good some bad. You learn from the bad and change it and the good you keep it going. So thanks for giving us a little bit of history today. ❤️🙏
Yay, you made to to my neck of the woods. My neighbor use to be a volunteer ranger at the Andrew Johnson house. If traffic isn't super bad, it's not a bad place to ride ebikes around. But if it's a busy time, it's better to walk. Also, my great grandparents got married in the back of a Model T Ford at the Andrew Johnson cemetery. Weird place to get married, but that's the story I've been told! Good video!
Welcome to Greeneville, we love living here! My husband grew up in Greeneville, and just recently retired and returned here, after being away for over 40 years
My Lowry ancestors came to Greeneville area in 1770 and farmed land until beginning of Civil War, leaving and moving to Illinois....Just found this out, so thanks for the great tour of the area. The mountains and countryside is beautiful. Just a few miles down the road is North Carolina and Indian territory.
I was born in Greeneville, I moved to Knoxville in 2011 and haven’t returned since. Today is my 22nd birthday and I’m driving down there later today to revisit
I lived in greene County for a couple of years and absolutely loved it great town and amazing people I'm currently 50yo and plan to retire in this amazing part of the great state of Tennessee watching this video made me fall in love with greeneville all over again.
Thank you for visiting us in Greeneville! When you come back, I'll be happy to take you on a tour of Tusculum University (the oldest school in Tennessee). We can also take you on a behind the scenes tour of the Capitol Theatre. I'm a Yankee who moved here 10 years ago, and there's a lot of good here.
Thanks for post card in mail made out to atikison family with little Ralph and Thanks so much for beautiful Greenville tn video our oldest daughter lives within Greenville tn in chucky doak tn area a little subberb of Greenville we have only been to Greenville once never got to visit downtown Greenville its gorgeous our grandchildren were in Greenville tn Christmas parade haven't found a copy we can view on utbe yet
I recall in the late 90s when they did downtow revitalization programs and they did brick pave sidewalks and old looking set clocks and awnings and coy hall etc. Looks like some of that grant money might be back and I’m glad about that. Great tour! Thank you!
Beautiful city! Love the history. Preserving the buildings and maintaining the original look, just hits my heart! Thank you for sharing! Love history! Maybe one day you can do a history of Cades Cove, especially the churches.
Will n Dawn, Thank you for sharing this with us, I really enjoy it, I've never been to Greeneville, Lots of History there, Thank you again. Hugs n Love to you both
Woo hoo! You made it to my hometown! My dad’s family lives in Greene County. I went to Tusculum College and ETSU, moved to GA in 1999. My dad and I got to visit family back home last October. When I was in school, we took school trips to the Johnson tailor shop and home, and the Pet milk factory
Another good one guys. We love the way you take your time with the camera and pause and let people see and take in things and the way you explain events. Love the history and enjoyed this!!!
What a well sone video! Dawn, keep a bag packed in back for both of you ant all times! don’t let your husband know. We have to always be prepared! :) His was such a fascinating video! Loving it!
Dawn, he didn’t wrestle a bear… H west led a “bar” lol Im half joking and half serious. Apparently you there are trees carved with “wrestled a bar here” You can look it up Guys, this is far fun and makes me don’t to go there! What a great downtown are.
I didn't know this. I'm hoping we can go there sometime. Thanks for sharing. My family loves visiting historical places. If you havent been to Williamsburg, Virginia, you need to go. Its awesome. Safe travels and God bless.
Great video! We move to Greeneville a little over five years ago from NC and it was the best decision we ever made! East TN has always had a very special place in our hearts even before we moved here. But Greenville is so special to us now; our own little slice of heaven here on earth. The people in this town really do take pride in it, and are so devoted to making it great. There are so many special things that happen here throughout the year, but especially around any given holiday. Between all of the different parades, to the the Christmas Tree lighting at the Courthouse, the lighted candle walks and just the way everyone come together...as my husband has said since we first moved here...our own little Hallmark town that we live in now! We are so blessed!!! We get to Sevierville about once a month, but never seem to run into you guys. Next time you are headed this way, look me up on Facebook and maybe we can meet up and grab a bite to eat somewhere...no cameras! :)
I went to Tusculum University! Best 2 years ever and I miss it so much! Also recently found out I had ancestors who lived there. Wish I had known then. Thanks for bringing back so many great memories!
Will and Dawn, really enjoyed your vlog! Very interesting about President Andrew Johnson! Beautiful old buildings and love his homes and the cemetery and beautiful views of the mountains. Love y'all!❤️❤️
You're kind of off about about Franklin. A section of what is now northeastern Tennessee was up for consideration for entering into the union as the State of Franklin. It was originally part of North Carolina. Obviously, it never came to fruition and that section was absorbed back into North Carolina, and later, what became Tennessee.
Dawn, If I was you, I would keep a overnight bag fixed for both of you even if Will says y'all are not staying over night. 😏You never know if y'all get stuck somewhere, like car trouble, weather, etc. He'll have to say, "Dawn, that was so smart of you to be prepared"! 😌
I wished I had known you was going to be in Greeneville Tennessee. I would have made the trip into town to meet with you both. Would have loved visiting with someone from back home (Brown City Michigan). I live out by Baileyton Tennessee. I am about a mile and a half from exit 36 off of 81.
I have heard of Greenville several times but never knew exactly where it was. I had to look it up! Neat town. Yall put in a bit of a drive to film this one. Thank you. Them darn Yankees was always killing our southern boys! 😄😄 Just picking at ya. I appreciate the effort put into this video and the education. Good job,Guys! I'd definitely keep an overnight bag ready to go on these adventures. I enjoy staying in unique places and checking out new little towns.
You two are so in Love. It is so nice to see a young couple living their lives together doing wholesome activities. I just subscribed and support your videos. Thank you and keep up the hard work.
Let me start out with I love your videos . I watch them all and have gone to alot of places because of your reviews and haven't been disappointed. But I can't believe you didn't show the cannonball in the front wall of the "Greeneville Cumberland Presbyterian Church"
The lobby to the hotel is lovely but why does the road go up on the first hotel you saw ,with the train on the side? It cuts a door and window in half? Also who is that small to go through the door 😂
That little town is just beautiful and teeming with history!❤️ I would love to stay overnight in that hotel and take in a movie at the Capitol theater and then spend the day touring all those wonderful historic places! I LOVE history 🥰 Thanks for the great video and God Bless🙏
I just wanted to let you know, that me n My Granddaughter enjoy watching y'all's videos, she loves The Smoky Mountains, so she has found a couple of channels,( she found y'all first) that WE HAVE TO WATCH, all the time lol, she also enjoys,The Smoky Mountain Family as well bc they have their girls so she enjoys them too. But when I last brought her to GBurg, EVERY yellow jeep she saw, she would rubber neck to see if it was you guys. I have been planning on just me n her visiting again in March, (Good Lord Willing) we planned one this past summer BUT life happened and we didn't make it, she is crazy Abt Dolly and I'm gonna try my best to bring her the 1st weekend in March for 3 days she has BEGGED N BEGGED for me to take her to The Dolly Stampede, she has BEGGED to go to Dollywood but we can't swing that, I wished I could for her but maybe one day. We brought her in 2021 but for some reason they only had so many seats @ The Stampede, the other day she had her note pad out, and writing down the time line for our trip ( only 9 y.o) , she has written down Try to find "the" yellow jeep for y'all and white jeep for TSMF. Lol. I wanted to leave a comment, bc she wanted me to tag or try to tag y'all in a video. Stay Blessed and Ty Both for everything y'all do, I hate some ppl can be so rude, but know the goodness outweighs the Bad. God Bless you Both.

That hotel was really cool, so much history in that area. How far is it from Pigeon Forge?
About 1h 45 if you use the interstate, but if you go through Newport and go down the Newport highway it takes you straight into downtown
Last time I noticed, the flag still does light up
Thanks for taking us to Greenville
Keep up the great work 👍 👏
Our pleasure!
my parents home town
