[@kelliesharpe1067]

East Tennessee born...East Tennessee raised...so are my kids. And I'll take my last breath right here in Blount County 💚

[@Paperclown]

oh i dont really like conservatism. it all seems pretty suspicious keeping hillbillies poor while smart people keep getting richer just like the old times.

[@kerras72]

It’s so cool watching my dad Buddy Adkisson in this video.

I lived in east Tennessee for about 9 years and loved it, the music, the people and the home cooked spirits, Ive been away for 7 years and long to return. While there I found Bill's program on TV, now not having a tv, I blew it up, now Ive found Bill on youtube what a joy. I lived in Blount Co a wonderful place indeed. Ive been lucky enough to hear Charlie several times the last time I/m thinking he was 94 years, Charlie could play anything you could hum

To grow up in east TN with raw nature is to learn that we are all stewards of nature, and we only benefit when the nature around us benefits. This is every person's responsibility.

Wrll said my hillbilly friend. West Tennessee born and raised but have been making the pilgrimage to the Smokies since the late 70s as a kid. There is something about those mountains that seems ancient. I've never been able to put my finger on it but there is something that draws me there like a calling. I would've loved to have been born to those mountains, that way of life.

I too specify SouthEast KY. Its a whole nother region. A lifestyle of its own.

[@user-tp5wj4fr3m]

I am Southwest Virginia The beautiful Appalachian. I also love East Tennessee. I remember when I was a child we would get big snows in November but not anymore

[@cassidyweaver5618]

Born and raised in east Tennessee. Since moved to Alabama. This makes it feel like home

[@mayarrington2771]

Grew up in Oak Ridge. Now living in AL. Sure miss home.

[@200x-v4k]

Me too. I live in Georgia. But I have deep and dear memories of my childhood in Tennessee

[@200x-v4k]

I’m from Tennessee I now live in Georgia and I see the difference in Georgians and Tennesseans In todays times of development and masses of people moving here from the north Georgia caves in and erases a lot of natural beautiful areas. Tennessee is more strong willed. They protect their natural areas and simply say no. I knew an old woman in a very far in closed off rural area that refused an offer of around a million dollars for her land from developers. She simply said no, I’m not selling. So that area remains the same today and what helps save it is because it’s shut off away from any other towns and surrounded by mountains with inside valleys. I know someone there that had a heart attack and a helicopter had to land in their yard to get them out

[@joycehopper8154]

southeast Kentuckian here and that’s where l say l’m from because my ancestors helped blaze the Cumberland Gap with Daniel Boone and have been here ever since….

[@rickbrown4199]

I really like watching these videos i just wish they would spend more time on each segment.

[@200x-v4k]

God will restore the land and the people who knew him after the tribulation we will all meet again in nature and a wholesome community again according to the Bible’s promise

[@hamstersniffer]

Easter Lilly, that's what they've been called in my east tennessee family for generations.

[@200x-v4k]

Yep mine too.

[@fullarmorpreparedness5606]

Up on the cumberland plateau we call those little yellow flowers easter lilies.

[@sweetpapillon7265]

I'm originally a South Floridian, now living in Middle Tennessee. But, Florida is definitely separated with North, Central, and South. Culture and way of life differ from each region.

[@BrotheroftheDeep]

You have it in West Texas! 0:40

[@mamatheshkumar5711]

take it to the heart | not to the brain ||. hail the lord !

[@scottcarroll550]

I imagine the Cherokee wished John Sevier would have gotten Jackson.

[@kathykaczmarek5868]

I always say I’m from southwest Michigan 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Mitzi1221]

Yeah you see it elsewhere. I'm from SW VA, coal mining country. Absolute

[@marjoriejohnson6535]

Many people that do any traveling from my area when asked where we are from say southerntier of n.y.state...to separate us from NYC which if you say new york or n,y. State they assume n.y.c.

[@lyndareed563]

I think after the Cherokee lease the land they realized it was a mistake they knew by then the settlers wanted to posses it !

[@keithmiller6277]

Eastern Oregonians say they are Eastern Oregonians. Probababy more now that Western Oregon is so screwed up.
