I can't begin to tell you how both painful and joyful this video is for me. Right before the virus took control, my husband and I were preparing to move in that direction and look for a home for our old bones. Thank you so much, it keeps me going to see the beauty and gives us comfort while we wait to make our way in that direction.
What a beautiful and peaceful video. The views were so beautiful. I just got lost in the video. So serene. The sky, clouds, mountains and lake were amazingly beautiful. Thanks for sharing your little adventure with us. Well done. Love you guys. Stay safe. You are in my prayers.
Thank you for sharing. I love riding around and looking at the old farms too. Now it's so hard alot of places arent open, at least we can still take a ride. Thank you for sharing Dolly Pardon's mother's house too. Nice video.
Such an amazing backroad adventure...I love the old barns and homes, beautiful lake. I love springtime in the mountains 🌸🌷🌸💐I can’t thank you enough for making these vlogs as they brighten my days🌞...and so many other peoples days🌞
Will, you are right, what a beautiful drive! I usually avoid most the crowded parts of the area (best I can) when I visit, so drives like this are my idea of heaven. My typical runs include Pigeon River Pottery, Smoky Mountain Jams place, and Aunt Mahalis’s for souvenirs.
Very nice video Will & Dawn. Spring has sprung, all the trees, flowers and grass are coming to life. I really like Douglas Dam/Lake area. When we are in town, we take a picnic and soak in the views. During your drive, the views are just beautiful! The rolling hills, cattle on the farms, blue skies with white clouds.
The doors have opened wide there. Quite a difference in a few days. Looks like people are having fun. I hope everyone stays safe while there. You two stay well.
Another great video through scenic east Tennessee. What a wonderful job of maximizing your options when you are limited. There certainly is no limit to the beauty of that area, Thanks so much.
I just love this video! This area is so beautiful. We always enjoy driving through the backroads. There’s so much to see. Thank you for lifting my spirits during this crazy time!
Stuck here in San Diego for the time being but have an acre of land at the lake can't wait to start building and move . My son made the move 5 years ago and have been visiting him and his family every year for a couple months the last few years just love it there .
Thanks so much for this video. Stuck here in California where you can’t even drive around for fun so thanks for showing me around North Carolina and the smokies! Be safe
We love the Smokies. We were married 18 years ago at Chapel In The Glen in Gatlinburg. Pray to make it again when this pandemic is over. Thank you for keeping us updated. Stay Safe.
Absolutely gorgeous drive. We actually got to Douglas Lake/Dam last year, and captured some beautiful views. Thanks for taking us back there, enjoyed it very much♥️ Stay safe guys!
Just left sevierville. Spent the week in a cabin with family. We only left the cabin twice to go to the store. It was lovely. Social distancing in the smokies
This really lifted my spirits! While my business remains open, I'm working 6 days a week and super stressed. There's a stay at home order here in Maryland, and things are getting crazy. Y'all stay safe.
We bought that farm!!! Literally. :) I have mentioned we are moving to Dandridge starting in the Spring 2021. The farm at the 28:24 mark is the Goose Creek farm. Can't wait to live in TN full-time
LOL, we always visit The Dam Store my husband always goes fishing when we visit, but we always make jokes with the name too, my little one says mom I can say that its the name of a store. Funny! We will never forget this pandemic its sad that people couldn't and wouldn't listen and do like what y'all are doing going to places no one else is crowded around, and unfortunately it may get like that again because people didn't take precautions now that flu season is coming around too. It is always nice to get out and enjoy a fresh air walk. I love springtime with the blooms of the trees and flowers sitting in the sun.
Thanks for the beautiful ride. Lovely to see the trees in bloom and the barns and lake. Absolutely beautiful and a tonic at this crazy time with the pandemic. Stay safe Will and Dawn from the Uk. xx
I really enjoyed this video. Love all the scenery,old barns and old houses. We were at Douglas Lake one year right before Christmas and it started snowing. Thank y’all for doing this😃❤️
Thank you for giving us these wonderful videos. It really makes my day happier, and at peace. God bless and keep you well. Hope i can still move to Tn. In August. This to shall pass....
My son and I are natives from The Granite State. Now, Gretna VA a lot of those buildings I’m sure they have a lot of history. I love taking road trips around here. Looks like a beautiful state there.
Rewatching this (7/17/21). Absolutely beautiful. Great video!!!!!! Just rewatching some of the backroad stuff, wishing I was there, much like I do every day. Love ya'll!!!! And thank you so much for taking us along!!!!!!
Enjoyed you newest video! The redbuds and spring flowers were beautiful! Especially loved seeing the honeysuckle. Stay safe and keep sharing these videos of the beautiful Smoky Mountains!
Really enjoyed this vlog I was in a 😒 moment and I feel refreshed after watching this thanks my friends this was great 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank You for sharing. I enjoyed it very much. This is the only way I would ever get to see it. I got to see a lot of places by watching UA-cam. Stay Well be Safe.
That was a Beautiful ride it made me feel like I was there with you. I pray this crisis will be over by September I really want to meet you guys in a meet up along with thousands of other fans of your I just love you guys 💜
@@SmokyMountainBlessed I'm praying it would be over now but I fear we have alot more to go through before it's over Gatlinburg is my Little piece of Heaven on Earth I sure hope I don't have to cancel We only get one Vacation s year and that's it💜
Thank's for the tour. My yankee son is down there and it's nice to see how pretty it is right now, You were lucky to have a park all to yourselves too! I'm surprised the parks were open down there. Keep safe. You have an artistic eye when filming.
I am absolutely loving your videos of Northeast TN....we will be in that area in April and might be relocating to the area from Florida in the next few yrs.👍❤
I gave this vlog a big thumbs up! I just loved all the beautiful scenery! This vlog & the one of the English Mountains I think were both the most scenic & beautiful vlogs you ever made! Keep up the excellent work & stay safe! We love you!
blue heron is the bird, that is why they built Fontana for Alcoa at Maryville, I think that house is what they call Federal Style, Stay well good video
Me and husband have a vacation home on Douglas lake in Dandridge We were planning a trip in May for our 40th wedding anniversary but I think the virus it’s gonna stop us from taking a trip. Thank you for going and posting your video 💕
Awesome just wanted to cry. We miss seeing you guys and the Smoky’s. We would love to live in the Dandridge area. Also, love the old barns and the Mountain View’s. Take care of yourself. Stay safe and well. Love you guys from WV
We love TN! Last summer we RVed in Pigeon Forge, Watauga Dam and the Elks Lodge in Elizabethton. Maybe next year Douglas Lake and Anchor Down will be a destination.
My husband and I almost bought some property on Douglas Lake a few years ago. We ended up buying new windows for our house instead! Lol! I believe the town Dandridge was named after Martha Washington. It was her maiden name.
Hi Will and Dawn , what a beautiful and peaceful drive . As many times that my husband and I have come there we have never been in the spring always in the fall . We are going to have to make a trip sometimes up there in the springtime . Thanks for help take our minds off all thats going on . Stay safe .
Thanks for the tour. I plan to escape the high tax state of Virginia and the busy Norfolk area to retire on Douglas lake in a few more years. I'm looking forward to a quite area and boating and fishing on that beautiful lake.
The bush that smells so good is a Honeysuckle & they pretty much grow wild all over Tennessee, they come in vine form or bush. You know it’s almost Summer when you smell the Honeysuckles; they smell Soooo Good!!! The first tree was a Cherry Tree, possibly Kwanzaa, they are so pretty. Also love the Redbuds, so beautiful in Tennessee in Spring. Does Douglas Lake have a swimming area & can you fish from it? Loved seeing the Country area, love taking drives like that just to see countryside like that. Thank you for that.
When I was growing up in Connecticut My family and I would take trips down to Camden South Carolina to stay and visit with my great grandmother and across the street from her house was this pond with really big gold fish and around the pond area were those onion plants that we also called wild chives.
Just what we needed after yet another stressful day. Thanks for the ride-along. We'll have to explore this area on our next.......whenever that may be. 🤨
I can't begin to tell you how both painful and joyful this video is for me.

It would be nice if once a year you had a meet somewhere in the smokies for all who would go👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love all of your videos but i am especially loving these video tours of the back roads! Thank you for your excellent content!!

Another beautiful trip, guys. I loved those old houses.
Ugh we would have been down that way in two weeks. Saving this video for when travel is safe again. Thanks for the tour. Stay safe guys.
Sitting here on a gloomy day in Dec. Winter is beginning here on the Cumberland Plateau
❤ spring time in TN
Great tour, thanks! I wish the RV campground was open so I could see but I will look them up.
Thanks for the tour. I plan to escape the high tax state of Virginia and the busy Norfolk area to retire on Douglas lake in a few more years. I'm looking forward to a quite area and boating and fishing on that beautiful lake.
Hope to see more of the counties west of the Smokies along the Nolichucky River in your future rides.
