    This is more my speed as opposed to the convention crowds. The nature/plants/gardens videos you've done are my favorites. Love the Smoky Mountains! North Carolina is a beautiful state.

    I'm in Oregon...the creek and falls reminds me of here. We were in East Tennessee( we drove) this June to visit daughter in law and grandson...she's outside of Rogersville...it's because in the hills there.
    Here in Oregon we have many many parks like the the one you visited.
    I'm an Empath. I require nature and the sound of water.
    My husband built me a little 3 barrel fountain...because I need the sound of it for relaxation.
    This was a fun video !
    I am glad you guys got to take a break!
    Love your videos. We subbed to Tampa Jay too!
    Much love

    Thank you for sharing this video. It was nice to watch end relaxing for me. I work in education and consider myself an empath. I’ve been craving outside time in northern, wooded areas. This video reminds me of a trip I took with my mom in Pennsylvania hiking in the woods as she is from there. We’re both Floridians but I think it’s cool that you once lived in Pennsylvania too. It’s neat to have that connection.

    Those aren't "falls", Cris. Those are rapids. :D. OK, you just arrived at the actual falls. Very beautiful. I was in the Smoky Mountains many years ago. I forgot how beautiful that area is.

    The one fast food place I look forward to up there FWIW? Cook Out. The whole Blue Ridge/Smokey is probably the most beautiful locales East of the Mississippi. I hope one day, you guys get to really drive that.
