Another beautiful drive in the Smokies! Thanks for taking us along. There seems to be no end to the gorgeous countryside. These type videos should remain a part of your productions, they reveal the true beauty of the Smokies area of east Tn.
I just discovered your channel 3 or 4 months ago and I'm really enjoying it. You guys are so cute together and I absolutely love these gorgeous drives you take us on. I was born and lived in East Tennessee for 50 years but now live in SW Virginia and we don't get back home very much. I miss it SO MUCH. That's why I'm SO HAPPY to have found your channel. You're taking me places that I can't go to most of the time. I take 3 or 4 hours every few days and watch only Yankee in the South videos. It's been very helpful in this time of having to stay home so much. Thank you both SO MUCH for these wonderful videos from HOME!
Love seeing these country church building take me back to my mom child hood church in Princeton wva my mom was church of God in Christ hope to see more of Tennessee churches and a another day time drive

@@yankeeinthesouth update on Dollywood they talk with Knox news today and they are working on a reopening day but it will be to complicated to open up next week because of social distance practice
Thank you Will and Dawn I really enjoyed the ride today. I just wish you had stopped and let me put my toes in the water. When I get to the Smokies I've always put my toes in the water. It was a beautiful ride anyway. GOD BLESS and y'all stay safe.
Love it💕 me and my family use to stay at a place out that way on our trips to the mountains. I think it was called Way-flo village. Very peaceful. No TV and no phone.
Another great video, guys. Always enjoy following you two, helps to relax and unwind. Some of my Dad's ancestors came to the smokies, bought land, raised up homes,farmed those lands and raised their families there. My maiden name was McCarter. I was born and raised in Booneville, Ms, if you'll ever travel down this way. We are located in the extreme N.E. corner of Ms. TC and safe travels you guys.
We just booked a cabin on Pittman Center Rd for this August. It's right on the river and we're so excited! We've never stayed in that area before and it made me happy to see this video. It appears to be in a quiet area, yet close enough to all the attractions. I love your videos!
God bless you guys! I grew up in Augusta, Georgia, and live in St. Augustine, Florida. We usually vacation every Fall in Pigeon Forge, but due to Covid-19 we canceled this year. Your youtubes are very enjoyable, especially for those of us who love Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and surrounding area. Thanks again for what you do, and please be safe!
About 5 years ago we had a family reunion in Gatlinburg and hired a local photographer(Rich blessings photography) to do a family picture and she took us to Emertts Cove covered bridge for the shoot. We have a picture of all of the men in the family standing in front of that Chevy truck in the barn that turned out really cool. The truck was parked right to the edge of the barn back then without any barricade. Such a pretty area. Loved you vlog - brought back memories. Thanks so much for sharing.
thanks for another great show luv the old cabins beautiful country and the bridge one bridge i look forward to being on is the WILL and DAWN bridge that takes me to places i never been luv u
Great vidieo, you guys need to keep going a little East to. North Carolina, and make sure dawn wears her crouched hat it’s the Bomb, love your vidieos.
Thank you so much for this video. This is my all time favorite spot in the mountains. Rented cabins there and fished the creek. It's an awesome place to sit and reflect. The view of the mountains is amazing. I always feel Gods presence when there.
Will!!!! Did you and Dawn bring your own roster to crow at the right time? That was great. You couldn't get it to ever happen that way again!!!! Lol !! THAT WAS GREAT!
I came with a camper and no reservations. I asked a person on the street. They said go up 321 past the school and Food City, cross a bridge and I'd see a sign, and to turn left. An old devout Christian couple welcomed me and I spent 8 days. The name, I believe was McDougle. They have since passed. Late 90's and $12/night. I drove all over Pittman and I fell in love with the Smokies. People need to get there and explore. Beautiful area.👍
Hi Will and Dawn, thanks for the great ride, just love those back roads .This is so peaceful and relaxing to see , helps to keep our mind on all the craziness. Keep up the good work but stay safe .
I love your travels in the countryside. For me, this is the REAL TN. The tourist area is the big draw for many, but for me...give me a mountain view and a country home and I'm happy.
Loved the video. The Pittman Center area is beautiful. Do you remember the name of the road the old cabin is on that is up for sale? Thanks again for the videos.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful scenery thoses cabins on the river were nice. I enjoyed this ride my friends love y’all stay safe 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Several years back, just after thy released the Elk into the park, the wife and took a little drive to the southern side of the park to see if we could see the Elk. However... we took a little side road, we were in a mustang and the road was like the one you show here. We ended up at a gigantic whole just before a semi submerged bridge. Now it was very evident that someone didn’t want us to go over that bridge... the problem though was trying to get turned around to get the hell out of there... lol, lol 😂
Were you able to find out if just the barn was for sale or the barn and the land it was on? Bridge was a find. And you ate correct! If they build a bridge WITH a pedestrian walk way they do need a parking pad!!
Love riding backroads and seeing old barns , houses, and equipment! THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US ❤️
Love the barns and water and the country
Beautiful thank you. 😊😊😊😊😊
Will, this video of the beautify of the trees, flowers, barns and the country side and the crystal clear water of the GSMNP is taking my breath away!

Thank you so much
Love the trip, guys. Beautiful covered bridge.
Will and Dawn, this bridge was on Bringing up Bates. Josie's boyfriend and her to court her on this bridge. Susie
Several years back, just after thy released the Elk into the park, the wife and took a little drive to the southern side of the park to see if we could see the Elk. However... we took a little side road, we were in a mustang and the road was like the one you show here. We ended up at a gigantic whole just before a semi submerged bridge. Now it was very evident that someone didn’t want us to go over that bridge... the problem though was trying to get turned around to get the hell out of there... lol, lol 😂
Were you able to find out if just the barn was for sale or the barn and the land it was on?
Bridge was a find. And you ate correct! If they build a bridge WITH a pedestrian walk way they do need a parking pad!!
That's a great covered bridge. I'll have to check it out next time in close by! Thanks for the drive today!
