Looking at the mountains never looses its charm. Everything stays the same yet constantly changes. And the rivers compliment the scene , ever changing too. Truly , I could not imagine ever tiring of Appalachia.

Both my Mom's paternal side and my Dad's paternal side were from the Appalachian mountains on the Kentucky side. Before I was born they had already moved to the foothills of the Appalachians. When we went to visit them, there was a certain point where I could start to see the blue mountains in the distance and I always felt like "I'm home". When y'all were driving and I could see the blue mountains in the background, it reminded me of those days. Sweet memories. Thanks for taking us along on your trip to visit Matt's family. That food looked delicious! To me, nobody cooks better than country people.

Y'all give us awesome presents alll through out the year with your wonderful videos. I left Mr Paul a comment on the Blind Pig and Acorn channel. Just like yours and the girl's videos, it impossible to not feel better after watching any of y'all's video. Thanks for all y'all do Ms. Tipper!
