    I grew up in Maryville! The Wye was a favorite place to go in the summer. It would be packed with kids! We go there every trip and take a picture with our tree. Love watching you guys! When you make the Grand Teton trip, come pick me up. I’ll drive and let you take naps. 😊

    Mike and Karen I believe it's Neeses sausage you're talking about. I don't live too far from it. There is also Bass Farm Sausage.

    Swaggerty Sausage is the best in my opinion it doesn't shrink while cooking like the others do. And tastes so much better.

    The NC sausage is Neeses.. comes with several flavors and Liver pudding or mush too.
    Oh, on the biscuits in microwave.. damp a paper towel and wrap biscuit in towel then place in microwave for few seconds. Like fresh.

    Neese's sausage is a North Carolina brand. The extra sage is great although not as good as what my grandma made.

    Great Video, Winston is a show stopper. OK, on your way back looks like you were in area of 321, I saw Mark Guenther and Sherry Guenther from Muddy Pond, TN, making Sorghum Syrup, I think in Wears Valley. You have a video from Muddy Pond area back a ways. As you pulled in and I saw the horse trailer, I felt like I was coming home to kin. They are the most wonderful folks, kind, loving family and friendly to all. Your channel has opened more doors for me and many people to praise Christ even more and more. There is power in prayer and that heart felt prayer cannot be hidden. Riding down the road is the greatest joy for me as I feel like I am really riding and going some where. til we meet again, All My Love, Always,
