Thanks, John. Your videos are so delightful. You are preserving a fast disappearing way of life in America, so many memories relived by the places you go and the nice people you feature. I plan on visiting many of these places in the future. Your editing and technical skills are top notch also! This is quickly becoming my favorite channel on You Tube.

I missed her " banner " sausage gravy. She was a awesome momma and a good cook. I used to call her gravy scatter gravy because about 30 minutes from eating it with homemade biscuits. You cleaned your bowels out. HaHa. She used white lily flour and lard to fry taters and whatever she was cooking in her iron skillet.
