In this video, I stop in Ducktown, TN. The first of many Tennessee towns I plan to visit. Care to join me for some exploring?

my grandmother, Reathel Patterson Vitelli used to shop this Piggly Wiggly when she took care of my great grandmother, Minnie Patterson. My great grandfather worked mining the copper. There is a book called "Ducktown Smoke" by Robert B. Outland Ducktown smoke : the fight over one of the South's greatest environmental disasters. Many of my high school summers spent in Turtletown and we would go to Ducktown to shop. They are about 10 miles apart. Thanx for taking me back in time.

I spent a couple of months there in 1972. Fell in love with Ducktown since that date.

Hey, I just subscribed. II loved it when you said you were a sucker for old brickwork and don't know why. I totally get it. I love to look at that and old wrought iron fences and gates. Stonework is amazing. I love watching videos of the UK because their villages are so old . Hundreds of years. amazing. We want to move to a smaller town in Eastern TN. Bristol, Johnson ciity. Somewhere that is not too quiet and has an old downtown with charm. I'm talking 40 to 50,000 people. Do you know of any. I also like Elizabethan TN but not sure if it has enough happening. I don't want to have to drive 30 minutes to civilization.

Thanks for subscribing! I think there are some smaller cities around Knoxville but I don’t know too much about them.

Just moved to WNC last spring, haven't had a chance to get out to Ducktown yet. Thanks for showing us around! I love your appreciation of all the architectural features around. I used to really enjoy exploring cemeteries, especially old ones or ones with a lot of unique headstones.

I’m assuming so. Looks like a couple places there that might stay open later.
