Thunder... rain... and the sounds of a flowing river... Yep!... That's EXACTLY my idea of a relaxing day... it's what my bedside "sound device" has programmed! 😂 Thunder... Rain... Flowing Waters... LUV IT! 💃🏽👍🏽👏🏽 Cheers 🍷
There is SO much to see in that part of the country, The Biltmore in Asheville,NC…… built in the 1920’s by Cornelius Vanderbilt’s son……he was 27 at the time. Imagine a 27 yr old boy accomplishing that project today..
Wow! @bobwalker9834 That's pretty incredible! Definitely planning another visit to the area. Will add that to the list! Thanks so much for checking out our content!
Yesss!! Smokies are calling!!! Love the laid back lifestyle!! “A month long camping trip” like it’s totally normal!! No reservation, no problem!! We’ve found our people!!! 😂🙌🙌🙌 wow! Gorgeous view of the mountains for sure!! I grew up going to Gatlinburg on vacation! Learned how to ski at ober gatlinburg! So nostalgic! Yayy for a family visit! So fun! And lovely sunset 🌅 Hope you guys enjoy and love the slow pace!
@roryandsage Hey guys!!! Thanks for checking out our video. Perks of being flight attendants is work schedule flexibility. Lol! The mountains were incredible! Gatlinburg was an interesting little town. Would love to know what it looked like a few years ago. Safe travels and enjoy the holidays!
Can’t believe believe you got a camp spot no reservations ‼️. Good for you. I’ve camped @ Smohemount & Elkmount many years ago. The SMOHkES IS the most visited NP in the US, being on the east side of the Miss Rv….enjoy
Hey Kevin. We are thinking of going back to That area next year too. Stan lives in Kingsport TN. So not that far from the Smoky's What was your cooler doing out when in bear country? Especially when sleeping in a tent. One of the first thing I learned when we moved to New Hampshire. Alway Keep everything in the Bear box or your car. Good to hear from you. Gary
@@skywaystohighways that happened back in the late 70’s I was with mom n dad and the hunts we didn’t know any better back then. Tracy and I are going to try to get back out to the smokies next year tell Stan I said hello. Be safe
Hello fellow Hiker, Great to see you at HTC. You mentioned in this video about a pop sound with the grill. I had the same issue with a heater and thought it was bad. I purchased a new one and had the same issue. I figured out that it was a few bad propane cylinders that I had. I used a fresh cylinder and no more issues. this might have been the issue instead of the adapter. Have a great holiday.
@recuerob1 Hey Gary Here. It was good to meet you. We spoke to Tembo at the Overland East Expo. They said it was a design flaw with the old adapter and they had a new one. They gave us a replacement with a extra right on the spot.. Thanks for watching.
The last time that Deb and I hiked to Laurel Falls, I slipped on the mossy rocks and fell on my ass. The only damage was a bent filter thread on my camera’s lens, and a huge dent in my pride. The place was packed, and everyone turned to see what had happened. 🥴
Apologies for the late reply @Steve_and_Deb_Explore_the_USA Oh dear... welp, better a bent lens, than a broken bone. I feel your pain. I tripped and fell recently, at our friend's bday party in the middle of the restaurant! Good thing I have an afro! My head just bounced right off the floor! LOL!!!!
Apologies for the late reply @dantekarraker6851 Thank you! We've come to accept that the rain clouds follow us around! Lol! It doesn't have floors, but I think it's a good thing. We prefer to have our rugs down. easier to keep tidy and we don't have to worry about moisture. The rugs dry in minutes.
👍Nice episode. The 270 awning and the wall kit ranks at the top of my likes when it's pouring rain. What was the name/location of the campsite when y'all were near Smyrna? Looked like a nice spot. I always go for pull-thru sites. I'm terrible at backing the trailer.
Thank you @retnav92 ! That awning is the GOAT! Hoping to upgrade the wall kit next season. It would be nice to have more light and air circulation. That spot is a Corp of engineers spot that we stayed at a couple times, now. It's nice and peaceful. www.percy-priest-lake.com/poole-knobs-campground/ Backing in is definitely a thorn in the side. Lol! We'll figure it out...eventually!
@@skywaystohighways Thanks for the info on the campground site. Backing: now that I finally have the Ark wheeled tongue jack, if a site is paved, I can disconnect and push the Hiker in :) . As far as COE campgrounds, if you're going through KY, checkout COE Wax Campground (Wax, Ky). It's ~45-60 minutes from Mammoth Cave. Hard-packed gravel sites, and clean restrooms/shower bldgs. C Loop has the more level spots, and some pull-thrus. Water/electricity mostly on the back-in sites. A & B loops are hilly. Marina and restaurant across the road from camp entrance.
Enjoyed😊 Love the Smokies.

Totally agree @lencicollier6492 Some of the most beautiful sounds Mother Nature provides for our enjoyment. 😊

Hey there @bobwalker9834 ! We never have reservations and it usually works out well for us. Definitely hope to return sometime. Thanks for watching.
Another awesome video. Hope all is well. Take care and be safe. Thank you.
Hi @kevinsandells9933 Thank you! Enjoy the holidays and be safe out there as well.
GET OVER TO Asheville, NC and see the Biltmore‼️‼️‼️
@bobwalker9834 Will definitely check it out when we return later this year.
I love the smoky mountains, had a bear, come into our camp, one time and tear up our cooler we were sleeping in a tent

Hey @williamcalhoun5153 Awesome! We hope we did it justice. ☺️

Great installment as always! I love that you two just roll with it when the weather turns sour. Does your 270 setup have floors, too?
