A Ride Through Historical East Tallassee Mill Village

[@rakamas]

Thank you for the ride Mr Tom ❤️✝️, I remember as a child going for rides to nowhere specific,just riding and sometimes stopping to get a frosty root beer..

[@debsmith5971]

Thank you Mr Tom, it’s always nice to ride along with you and my friends! Your cute little town looks so beautiful!💖🫶🏼🙏👍🌺🌴🌸🌼🌻🍄

[@kandycebeeks7056]

Reminds me of the drives we did with my parents and my grandparent’s in ND….so many memories ❤️

[@amandafriel1865]

Hey Mr Tom, glad we are going for a ride ! I did bring my cushion so the bumps aren't too bad 😊 Looks like a nice day, I like to look at historical things , it's very interesting how things change over the years. Pats to the kitties, it's cooled down a bit today so I got a chance to clean my car inside and out, a job I really despise 🙃, not that it's that bad but it's just a pain lol Nice to take a break now I'm finished watching you ! Take care over there ❤

[@karlaruter3221]

Really needed to get off the boat and go for a ride, great history and again I cleaned the windshield for you when you walked in the station 😊. You always make the day better and bright for so many of us. God bless you Mr. Tom.

[@helenveasey7318]

I really enjoyed the ride thru your quiet little town. It's really pretty and so peaceful. The history of the cotton mill and the housing for the employee's was so interesting. It's nice that people are fixing up the homes and keeping the area liveable. Thanks for another enjoyable ride, history lesson and sightseeing trip.

[@Dianatoo123]

Not what I expected. I thought the mill house would be smaller cookie cutter houses. These are newer looking too. Always fun to go on a ride! Thanks! 👍

[@kimmcnear6843]

I love going for rides around town. Especially in the older neighborhoods

[@karlaruter3221]

Do you remember when people used to be able to just go for a Sunday drive. Now we can't afford to 😊.

[@heatherfling7820]

Thank You Mr Tom for the beautiful ride a tour of Alabama. I had always wondered what it looks like. I had really enjoyed seeing Alabama. I sure love to visit before my time expires on this earth. I appreciate you taking us on a beautiful adventure. ♥️👋😃

[@DeepSouthBama56]

You are very welcome

[@BevLopez-xy6iq]

Neat journey. Enjoyed the trip in history. Good to see you are well and in improving health. Take care in the remainder of winter. Looking forward to Spring garden planting tours. Warm wishes for a good few weeks. Hug the kitty Krew.

[@drivesecure2476]

Hey Mr Tom nice little ride very interesting how the mill had housing for the workers yes some of the Houses need some tlc for sure those speed bumps will wake you up Stay Safe Take Care !!!

[@osmadchlo]

I really enjoyed the ride along Mr Tom. Lots of little mill villages where I live in NC too! Sadly, our mills are also mostly closed now. There was even a "company store" in town, but privately owned by the time I came along. It was a cool place to walk around in... lots of neat stuff to find in there.

[@jeffriffel4364]

[@carolavant3778]

I enjoy rides like this, too. So much charm and history!! Tallassee looks like a nice place to live. Thank you for taking us along. One this I like about Marianna is that most of the houses in town are older and on decent sized lots, too. My house in Sanford was pretty much zero lot line, in more modern subdivisions. Honestly, I didn't like it much, and that was one of the main reasons I moved here. It's such a shame that our textile industry has declined. Back in 1973, I worked in Washington, DC for the American Textile Manufacturers Institute, and got to know and work with many of the people in the textile industry. I sure wish our country would wake up and see that our people need industries that provide good jobs. Lord, don't get me started!

[@grandmajane2593]

There was a bix textile industry here in Connecticut too. It's a shame all those jobs lost. One was Willimantic, CT American Thread Co. They were famous for their thread. They had big factory buildings and employed almost the whole town. There were many others scattered over the state. But it appears foreign countries can do it cheaper than we can.

[@idafisher8327]

Thank you for the nice ride in ole Mill town.

[@JNoMooreNumbers]

My house is one of the first from 37 and was added on in 55 when the neighborhood was built. Though the TB hospital was built in the 40s and now a little community college and now selling. Afraid of a developer. There's 158 acres with the college of woods in walking distance I hope they leave alone. Where will the deer go? This was a farming community. A few hobby farms left and still a lot of old farm equipment in yards. Have to aways for real. farms again. Nice to see your town's history. I'm not too far from one of Henry Ford's old places. Drunk kids in the 90s burned the big house down.

[@tammyharder7488]

I always love going for a drive it does a person good to get out, have some sunshine and fresh air look at something different for a bit. Enjoy!

[@moalf5088]

Nice drive Mr. Tom. Especially, liked your drive home. Your home much better. A lot more space between houses.

[@maryjobraun1101]

Hello Mr. Tom, thank you for the ride and background of Mill City and neighborhood, there are many speed bumps but it probably helps cut down on speeding through the residential streets. It looks peaceful and neat. Is there any part of the mill still standing?

[@debmc4289]

Awesome Mr. Tom. Love small towns. I live in a small mountain town.

Really looking forward to this video today ❤Thank you for showing us your beautiful countryside Tom ❤ Edit: I always felt I was born in the wrong era, I love the older homes with character where none were the same….all each so special ….

[@jeanetteschulthe1andOnly]

Mr. Tom with all the "beefing" about electric cars, sustainability for climate change etc., I just want to say I am a Prius owner, for several years and about now, I am very glad I got it. It is the gas/reverse? braking system that charges the battery. When I bought it I did not calculate in the 3 yr debacle, hoax, the world going nuts and inflationary prices on everything. It saves me a lot of money. The trip info always says 45-50mph...I get at least 38. I think the Priuses get better city miles than highway. Highway trips = 38 mph and city, side street trips=49.

[@roxanaconception]

Thankyou for a nice drive….😊

[@DeepSouthBama56]

My pleasure 😊

[@arthurhartsock1407]

Looks like you have very decent hometown. And I hope all your neighbors are as pleasant as you. 'Company Towns' have been badmouthed badly over the years. But it looks like that company provided their workers a decent home to live in. Hopefully this Company treated workers well in most areas.

[@ritagillikin3007]

Hello Mr.Tom, hope you and the kitty crew are doing ok.I will be near you in mobile Alabama in the next couple of days days .Haven't never been but I bet it is pretty.

[@sharonlesley901]

Yes we also have the cat stealing things here also. They are magnificent, but I wish they would leave the cats alone. Between them and the coyotes it's hard to keep one here. Thanks for the ride, I would love to have a house that size mine is to big for an older woman to keep clean.

[@chadstarks]

Loved this video and found it so interesting. Seems people would greatly benefit if they would buy a small house and live below their means. Didn't know Tallassee became home for you all when work at the mill brought you to town. Mill Town is a Tallassee treasure.

The small town I grew up in, in the MS Delta had 2 cotton gins, a grain elevator and a cotton mill. I grew up at the Cotton Mill and knew every nook and cranny. My Daddy was the plant manager so we lived on the property. Now there is nothing left in the town for anyone to do. Progression has been a bad deal for some. I'm 66 now and can see how our once great country has been slowly destroyed from our politicians.
