I live on the Cumberland Plateau near Crossville, and know that area well.
Beautiful area to visit Diana. Thank you for the comment.
First I want to say that I LOVE the name of your UA-cam videos! I've always been very fond of Fridays because on Friday nights I got to stay up late and watch Johnny Carson with my dad. You two are living a great life traveling to these interesting places, far away from the troubles of today's society. I sure wish I had that "Make Children Great Again"" paddle! lol. It would be a terrific conversation piece!
Love that!
Beautiful country for sure!!We love taking an adventure where you can find all kinds of cool places to visit!Old country stores are one of our favorite places!Thanks Mike and Karen....another informative video!!!😊
Thanks so much for the comment Jody - Our pleasure.
This was a great place for a video. Love seeing old barns, antiques, etc. I bet they could tell quite a few stories. Please keep this up.
Nice to see so many hills, not people on top of people. Country living at its best! Thanks, my friends.
Just wondering, would you ever consider coming to Ontario Canada? Maybe Niagara Falls Ontario Canada.
Glad you enjoyed it Tracy. We would love to come North sometime in the future.
@Friday's Forever We would sure Love ❤️ to meet you and show you around.
I have to agree that Apple pie looked heavenly 😋
Looks like a fun day. I used to deliver to Mennonite folks in Scottsville, Kentucky. That was years ago and 3 careers back. They are such nice folks. I really respect and admire them.
Enjoyed this trip! Glad to see Karen back in this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Enjoyed your video as usual. I love back road adventures! The lady you interviewed at Muddy Pond is part of the Guenther Family that is known for making sorghum syrup along with apple pies, cracklings and sausage. I just saw a video this past weekend where her family was interviewed by The Appalachian Channel, you tube video titled: Meet the Guenther's from Muddy Pond. I recognized the gentlemen who is the eldest son as he did demonstrations at Dollywood in the fall on how to make sorghum syrup. You will see the lady that makes the apple pies in one of the videos. I live in Georgia and always look forward to trips to Tennessee.
Wow! I’m surprised you found Muddy Pond. We live up on the plateau not far from there. We love to go pick up treats there and a few other little shops nearby. Enjoyed watching 😊
Thanks so much for the comment Patricia. it's a beautiful area for sure.
Love your videos Mike and Karen I am a new subscriber love all those backroad places that y'all visit may God bless you and keep making the videos and I'll keep watching

Back road drives are the best. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Yes they are!
Thanks guys first time watching your shows
Hi Wayne - welcome to our adventures!
Loved the video. This is what my husband and I do here at home and on vacation. We try to stay away from the hustle and bustle tourist things and head out on the back roads. Homemade things and food are always so much better. The foods are fresh, usually no preservatives and made with love ❤️ Thanks for sharing. Loved the quick cameo of my man, Big T. 😊 👋
So true! Thank you for sharing with us.
Smile more brother:) God's blessing you both 🙏 let it shine😁 Loving this episode.
Oh I'm smiling when i eat that apple pie! God bless.
@@FridaysForever So did I 😁
I love muddy pond. Especially the General store. We only live 30 minutes from there and 15 minutes from the General store in Clark range. Wish we could have seen you.
Love this video ❤️
Thank you!
If you get a chance visit, Granville Tn. Its near Carthage Tn. They have a 2 story General Store. They have a Mayberry Festival the fall. Then you can check out Defeated Creek Campground. Its on Cordell Hull Lake.
Thanks so much Tony we really appreciate this info and hope to visit this area soon.
We plan to visit Muddy Pond next October to see the sorghum syrup making process. We order their sorghum by the quart. It makes fabulous cookies.
Enjoyed the video guys ! My Mom made apple flips like those and were sought out buy many lol ! we will check that place out our next trip that way ! thanks for sharing your adventures with us !!
Thank you 🤗
If you ever come across Peach pepper jelly....Get it! Its the best stuff! you get a townhouse cracker, cream cheese and peach pepper jelly!! oh my goodness. the best stuff!
I just love to ride and look at the beautiful country side. And those Pies😉are sold as quick as being put on the shelf. Big T looked happy. well, I’m starting to doze off, I enjoyed the video, nite, nite

Thank you guys ☺️
Our pleasure!
The milkshakes at rockabilly are so good.
Ok now I want a Apple pie 🥧 ❤️👍🙏🏻
What a great adventure! Question? Have y’all reviewed any flea markets, what about The Great Smokies Flea Market off of I-40, there’s also one out side of Bryson City NC called Uncle Bill’s, would be great to see some of those!
We've been to several flea markets but no recording so far - maybe one day. Thanks for the info.
Hi guys i still trying to get caught on all you shows you go ti some th beautiful place
Love muddy pond
Those mint green dishes are called Melmac dinnerware. Loved the video and that pie looked really good.
Oh thank you!
No, it's called Jadeite/Jadite‼️
Melamine is a cheap type of plastic like dishes. Jadeite is a more expensive collectable, and looks more like the white Milk glass.
@@Septemberwitch24 why do you seem offended
@@dieselwrench3621
Not offended. Just hate misinformation‼️
I would have gone Crazy with the Spices
Haha - thanks for the comment.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Would love to have been at that general store I'm sure that that shake and that apple pie was very good.
We really enjoyed it Wanda. Thank you for watching.
Hard to beat a fried apple pie.God bless!
this is a neat place
We have been there!!! Found it one year when we were doing the longest yard sale on US 127, in August each year, runs from Michigan to Alabama.690 miles long. The burgers and fries are pretty good at the antique diner place.After the diner on 127 there is a huge grassy lot that is full of antique cars, ( not for sale) all makes and models from 50-60, curious if you passed it.? It’s cool. Such quiet peaceful scenery.Enjoyed the vlog👍🏻
Thanks for sharing Sandra - we've heard about the yard sale. We came through on a Sunday.
This place is on my bucket list! The mennonites always have great baked goods. If you ever see their tomato bread.....you gotta try it! It'll make your tongue slap your brains out!! 🤣😋😋
Thanks for the tips!
hope yall found the store in pall mall tn just down the road
Please give us the roads your on so we may go on the same excursion. Thanks. I bet that dinner has good 🍔
❤❤Love y’all❤️❤️
Sending love back at ya Carolyn!
I'd love to venture around in that store
Looks exactly like rural Missouri and close to where I live. 😊🇺🇲
It really does Cathy!
Glad you're back Karen!!! We'd like to hear about your adventures with the girls, Mike looked a little out of sorts without you.
Thanks so much Mary.
Actually, I thought Karen seemed a little out of sorts.
New to the channel and trying to watch all of your videos. You guys have me looking at Travatos now.😂
What kind of hoody is Mike wearing in this video?
Melanzana Micro Grid Hoodie
Home !!
Did you try one of Appalachian stack cakes from the place you got that pie? I’ve not tried them but was told they’re worth the trip. Curious to know what you thought if you tried them.
Mike is like me. If I find something I really like I want more of it.
Yes sir!
❤❤
My son wants me and Richard to do what your doing. We love romping the mountains. Only problem is my husband likes to talk a lot. We would end up staying at everyone’s house for dinner that we meet. 😂
Give it a shot Pam - people might enjoy listening to him.
you guy should go to the R.M Brook general store in Rugby tenn.

@@FridaysForever
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Did you go back for more pies? I would have bought them out if they were that good.❤
Not this time but we will be back!
The mint green dishes are jadite.
Thank you
Fry pies. We love fry pies. There is a place in Ohio Amish country that makes the best fry pies
Did y’all shop at Ingles back in 07 to 11 in Boones Creek?? I was a bagger and I swear I seen y’all before or y’all got twins 😂
Our son Caleb worked during this time so we were likely in and out at times.
@@FridaysForever I was like I know that Woman!! And my name is Canaan 💚
lester ware unless it glows in the dark and or is radioactive
thats a huge milkshake
did you go back in and buy the rest of the pies
Not this time but we know where to go back for more now.
Have you visited Paris, Tenn?
We've been through but no video yet.
What road are you on? What is the nearest town?
Quote a few Doris. Please google Muddy pond store and Cumberland mtn store for accurate directions.
How much was the fire hydrant?
We don't know that it was for sale so sorry.
You didn't show too much of that general store. Nor at Muddy Pond.
How do you not gain weight? I can’t eat like that and it’s not fair lol
Thanks for the comment Jennifer. We both work full time and try to stay on the go.
Ok I'm just gonna say it. It's important to ACTUALLY support these local small businesses. Buying one milkshake or one fried hand pie, between 2 people is not what keeps these small stores alive. Don't be so tight, if money is such an issue then maybe you should switch to reviewing Dollar Tree or Walmart. Time it so you are hungry when you visit these country stores or buy some unique items to review. Lead by example.
You don’t know if they bought anything else because they don’t show everything the are very good supporters of Tennessee small businesses and general and they could have walked out with nothing…
Thank you Kristen we love drawing attention to these places for others to visit.
