Episode Transcript
[00:00:03] Speaker A: Where are they?
[00:00:04] Speaker B: They're probably upstairs.
They never answer the door. Oh, wait, it's Monday night. They're on the second floor.
All right, guys, welcome back. Second floor session.
We're coming to you today on our first episode. Super exciting episode number one. One.
Number one. We're talking today about places in east Tennessee.
[00:00:42] Speaker A: Can be anything.
[00:00:43] Speaker B: Yeah, anything.
[00:00:43] Speaker A: Whatever. Way inside places you've been.
[00:00:46] Speaker B: We heard about anywhere in east Tennessee.
[00:00:49] Speaker A: Whatever.
[00:00:49] Speaker B: Yep, absolutely.
All right, so let's just get into it.
You start out, give me a good place.
Some places you like. You guys like going.
[00:01:01] Speaker A: So a great place, family oriented. Great place, family oriented. We spend a ton of time here in the summer, Summer, fall, spring. All that is a state park, I guess you could say Indian Boundary Campground. State park and campground.
[00:01:22] Speaker B: It's a good one.
[00:01:23] Speaker A: Yeah. Up Teleco Treh Skyway, they've got a big lake, a big campground. It's got, what, four loops there with.
I hate to guess, but I'm gonna say in the 90s, probably on campsites.
[00:01:41] Speaker B: Really? I didn't think they had that many.
[00:01:43] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm thinking so. Because I know there's.
Yeah.
In either 80s or 90s. Yeah, it's somewhere.
It's somewhere at least that. Yeah. Anyway, it's a great place to go fishing. Take the kids. We go every year, three times a year usually. At least we spent about two solid weeks up there. Or, well, a week at a time. Solid seven days.
We love it, man. You get up there, you have no cell phone signal.
It's real nice, considering that that's all we do is talk on the phones all day. So it's nice to get away from for that reason.
It's inexpensive because it's state park.
[00:02:23] Speaker B: What does it cost? I really don't even know, man.
[00:02:25] Speaker A: I think my wife always books it online when we go. I think if you're just pulling up, it's either cheaper or more expensive. I can't remember which way it goes. If you do it online, it's either more or less, but it's anywhere from $25 a day to $30 a day. And considering you head up to Pigeon Forge or somewhere like that, it's like 110 a night. Just crazy stuff.
[00:02:48] Speaker B: Do you have hookup? Like, I mean, I know you got hookups, but I mean, do you have.
[00:02:51] Speaker A: Like, power and have you ever been up there?
[00:02:54] Speaker B: I've been up there.
[00:02:55] Speaker A: But you've never camped, so.
So, yeah, like, so what I do. And I used to not do this when I had a smaller travel trailer. But now we've got a fifth wheel.
But what I do is I pull up, and there's a. Where the dumping station is.
They have, like, potable water up there. Filling station, too, for fresh water. So, yeah, I just top off my fresh water tank, and then so it's full. You do have electric. So that's. You got electric hookups, but then you just. You dump on your way out your gray and black tanks.
[00:03:27] Speaker B: So they don't have, like, a water hookup. So you just have to fill up when you go, Right?
[00:03:31] Speaker A: Yeah. And you. I mean, you could fill up and then drive up there, but I just don't. I just don't fill my tanks up then drive all the way up there because it. Heck, it's just more weight. And you got to go up that mountain.
[00:03:40] Speaker B: Does a tank. I have no idea about. I don't know what.
[00:03:43] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can definitely run out. I mean, you can definitely run out. Like the last time we stayed, we say six knots, seven days, six nights.
And on the last day, we ran, like that morning, I guess as we was leaving, Megan was doing a lot of cleaning. Cleaning dishes, cleaning the sink, cleaning the toilet. Yeah. So. And we. I think we used just about the rest of the water that we had. But I mean, we had to try to do that. Like, you know, you didn't have to do all that, but.
But yeah, it lasts you. I mean, and if you didn't, I mean, there are spigots throughout the place.
[00:04:17] Speaker B: You don't have Internet or nothing like that up there, do you?
[00:04:20] Speaker A: Nothing.
[00:04:20] Speaker B: That's awesome.
It'd be amazing. So can you tent camp up there?
[00:04:24] Speaker A: You can. Yeah. Go up there and tent camp. Yeah, they'll.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: Is that like. Is that. Is that just a regular trail, like a camper spot or so you just roll in. It could be a. Yeah.
[00:04:34] Speaker A: You have a ground.
[00:04:35] Speaker B: Two campers sitting beside you, then.
[00:04:37] Speaker A: Yeah, you could. But the sites are real spaced out. They're. They're spaced out for anybody who does camp. They. They're angled good. You're not gonna have somebody straight across in front of you, blocking you to be able to back in when you swing around.
And there. And there's big spaces between, you know. Okay.
And there's. There are. I mean, I'd probably encourage people to, you know, you go once, obviously you're up there, but, you know, probably drive around it and figure out if you're close enough or if you're passing by, stop and see. Because there are better spots than others. Some places, like A camper wouldn't really fit, especially if it was a good size.
It does, it does have limitations though, as far as what your. What size camper? You're technically allowed to be in there by national forest standards, but they're not going to like, sight you if you go over that size. What it is, is like it says, hey, here's the legal limit.
[00:05:27] Speaker B: You.
[00:05:28] Speaker A: If you're over that and you damage any state property, trees, something like that on your way in or out, you could be fine for it. So, like at your, you know, discretion.
[00:05:38] Speaker B: Yeah, is your discretion if you do it, if you mess it up and you know that you're over, then it's you.
[00:05:42] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. So you're taking kids up there or something?
Crappie bass or crappie largemouth bass, bluegill.
[00:05:52] Speaker B: You have to have license, day license.
[00:05:55] Speaker A: Or I buy fishing license every year. I couldn't tell you. I'm sure you do. Yeah, I'm sure.
Yeah.
[00:06:00] Speaker B: Or trout. Do you have to have a trout license up there? You don't have to have nothing up there. Like.
[00:06:05] Speaker A: No, there's no trout there. Now you go up Taco River.
[00:06:08] Speaker B: The river. I know.
[00:06:09] Speaker A: You have to have a trout stamp with your, with your license. And then you have to have a daily permit. Also, once you're so far up, which by the way, I absolutely love, a lot of people camp up there and drive down and trout fish because you got to get, you gotta get your spot on the river like 4:00am you know, or else, you know, you gotta pull off in that hole park and then you can go down and start fishing, you know, once it gets light enough too.
[00:06:29] Speaker B: But.
[00:06:29] Speaker A: Okay, interesting.
[00:06:31] Speaker B: So we, we like, like, we enjoy tent camping.
Canvas style tent, really nice tent. But we enjoy camping like that. We've never had a camper, so I wouldn't know like exactly all the ins and outs of stuff like that. But now I did say the last time we went camping, I'll call it. We call it Glamping. I had a big old AC unit in that thing.
It was in July or August.
[00:06:57] Speaker A: Don't. Don't say like a wall unit in a tent, please.
[00:07:00] Speaker B: No, no, no, no.
[00:07:00] Speaker A: It wasn't a wall unit.
[00:07:01] Speaker B: No, no, no, no, no. It was not one of them. It was a really nice. We had a nice setup in the.
[00:07:05] Speaker A: To keep it cool.
[00:07:06] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah. It was like, it was like.
I think we pulled down in the nights. It was like 62 at night.
And then, and then through the day and the heat was like 75. This canvas tents. It's like, it's pretty thick. It's the business. Yeah, I mean, it's super thick. It actually at one point, it's a stand up unit. It's a portable stand up unit that sits inside and it has an exit. Just a.
[00:07:31] Speaker A: How's it, how's it run off?
[00:07:33] Speaker B: What do you mean? It's got a basin. The condensation is a basin inside of it.
[00:07:37] Speaker A: So you have to empty it.
[00:07:39] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it does really well about using.
You know, it doesn't, it doesn't really have a ton of condensation.
[00:07:44] Speaker A: Like if you ran it all night on a hot summer night, you know, I actually.
[00:07:48] Speaker B: No, no, it will not pull.
[00:07:50] Speaker A: Like, not even that much.
[00:07:51] Speaker B: No. Well, not even that much at all.
[00:07:53] Speaker A: I'll be there.
[00:07:53] Speaker B: I had it at the last campground we went. I had it suck in the tent. I had to open vents up in the tent. It was sucking this tent shut.
It was sucking the tent shut.
[00:08:04] Speaker A: Well, I'll tell you a funny story about us camping up there one time. So.
So you're in the woods. Every bit of it. You're in the woods, you know, around the campground, but the kids can get out and ride the loops.
There's a beach, you know, there's a beach over there and go to the beach. There's a swimming hole. It's all roped off.
There are, there's a, there's a general store where you can like rent canoes or kayaks if you want to. Yeah, yeah. And take it out. So you actually don't have to haul them up the mountain if you don't have room or whatever.
We know, we know some of the hosts up there, so we, we actually go up there and hang out with that host and we borrow their kayaks if we're up there and stuff. But we, we absolutely love. I, I love it because I mean, my phone goes in my truck and unless I think about it, to go fishing so I can take an actual like picture of the fish, you know.
[00:08:55] Speaker B: Proof.
[00:08:55] Speaker A: You gotta have proof.
I don't touch it again. Right? I do not touch it. I gotta take a watch because I lose so bad a track of time.
Anyway, I'll tell you a good story about it. One time we were camping up there and it was late in the fall. They always close the week after Halloween, I think. So like the first week in November.
[00:09:16] Speaker B: They'Re fixing to close.
[00:09:17] Speaker A: Yeah, they don't even go all the way to the weekend. They close on like a Wednesday or something. It closes down and it reopens. Again. You know, all the hosts leave and everything. And they shut all the gates. State does.
But I was worried when we were going through a government shutdown right now, and I was worried that they were gonna not allow you in that park. Yeah, I was worried about that. But they didn't shut it down. And it may be now because we've been through our fall breaks and stuff, but one time we were camping up there and Megan took the, you know, boys pumpkins and stuff like that because it was Halloween, Halloween weekend, and actually closed that Wednesday. So that's how late in the year it was. We got up there, we pulled up on a Friday night. It was just a weekend deal, but we pulled up on a Friday night, the wind was blowing about 45 mile an hour. You're in the woods and them trees and they've got a ton of pines and stuff up there too. I mean, they're just swaying over top. You weren't. I worried myself sick thinking, God, my tree's gonna fall on the camper. Kill us, you know, of course. So we got up there and it was about 65 degrees.
[00:10:19] Speaker B: I mean, that's not normal. 45 mile an hour up in the mountains.
[00:10:23] Speaker A: Yeah, it was.
[00:10:24] Speaker B: How that's not normal. I mean, that, you know, out west trees are, you know, they. They're built for that kind of stuff. But you get this stuff out here in Tennessee. We get.
[00:10:32] Speaker A: Well, especially if it rains. It makes the roots real weak. Yes. Or the ground.
So. But we got up there, it's Friday night, it was dark, so wind howling. You know, you could look up and see the trees just, you know, blowing around.
They wouldn't call them for anything crazy to happen, but it was going to be, you know, winds and stuff. But it was 65 degrees. Okay, 65 degrees, wind blowing 45 mile an hour. I was terrified something was going to happen to my family, you know, while we're up there and, you know, and I'm. And I start that day like that Friday night, like, oh, this wind, man. It's freaking me out, you know, just kind of just saying it out loud the whole time.
So Friday, that happens. Saturday it's going to start raining and it's going to start cooling off. We know that. Another thing about going up there is you don't know the forecast.
I mean, you can look before you go, but you ultimately, you don't know. You don't have. Unless you turn it on a radio listening to it, or you have like a walkie talkie that tells weather you can do it that way. But I don't have. I mean I don't. I listen to radio every now and then up there. But anyway, I knew it was going to get cold and I knew, I knew it was gonna get close to freezing. Right. So you had Friday's episode with the winds and the temperature high that morning I looked outside because I knew it was gonna start raining. And I looked outside that morning out of the camper and I was like, oh, it's not raining, that's great. I'm gonna go ahead and cook breakfast. Right. I walked out there and as soon as I walked out there, I got hit with a raindrop and it started raining. I stayed up at my in laws camper until 1am with them hanging out with a fire going in the rain with a raincoat on. And until 1am it was still raining. When I got up the next morning on Sunday to leave, everything was covered in snow.
Wow. So it went from one extreme to the next.
[00:12:20] Speaker B: When was this?
So it would have been.
[00:12:23] Speaker A: Reese was.
[00:12:24] Speaker B: No, I mean I meant like, like the time of October.
[00:12:26] Speaker A: It was, it was Halloween. Halloween weekend. Wow. Yeah. Of course the mountains get snow early here in East Tennessee.
[00:12:32] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:12:32] Speaker A: But that was probably. And what was crack when we left because it was still open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and it was closing. So there were still campers coming up the mountain. Like when we left that day at probably noon, 1 o'. Clock. Because check ins at 2.
Checkout is no checkouts to no checkouts. One check ins two. I think how it is.
And when we left to go down the mountain, I mean you got, gosh, I don't know, a minute, two minutes down the mountain, no snow whatsoever.
So campers are coming up and I'm just covered in snow going down and they're probably thinking, and they're right outside Indian boundary and they're probably like, what in the world, you know, where he come from? You know. But then obviously they go up, you know, another couple miles, two or three miles. What's your real quick.
[00:13:20] Speaker B: That's what probably 1500ft. 15.
[00:13:23] Speaker A: Oh, where the elevation where you're at? Oh, you know, I don't know. I don't know what the elevation is there, but that's one of my favorite places in East Tennessee. I love it. I didn't grow up camping, so when I met my wife, we actually, when Reese was born, so 10 years ago, we started camping and he actually learned to crawl on his first camping trip. So that's when we started. And we've been camping ever Since. And that's my absolute favorite place to go.
[00:13:49] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:13:50] Speaker A: I love it. They got a. They got a three mile loop that goes around that lake. You can walk and ride or ride bikes around. So there's. I mean, heck, I love it. I love it. So that's one of my favorite places.
[00:14:00] Speaker B: Well, I mean, for me, I mean there's of course East Tennessee. There's so much that we could do, you know, But I really, I mean I. I'm not as big a fan, but. But it is the biggest tourist place, which would be your Pigeon Forge in Gatlinburg. When we, you know. Today. Today. Now, now I'm telling you today I'm not a fan of it. But when May. When I was growing up.
[00:14:23] Speaker A: Oh, it was a treat, wasn't it?
[00:14:24] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like. And mom and dad could take. Because I mean we wasn't the. We didn't have the most money in the world back in the day.
But for us to ride up, if we were going to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg, dude, we were, we were, we were going. I mean that was the place. People love it and they do.
[00:14:41] Speaker A: If you've never seen it, go and enjoy it because it's gonna be fun. It's gonna be entertaining.
[00:14:45] Speaker B: But you know, Pigeon Forge is, is really good if, if you want to go, you know, have fun, go play.
[00:14:52] Speaker A: Go, you know, spend some money on. Go karts.
[00:14:56] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely.
[00:14:56] Speaker A: It's got the attraction.
[00:14:58] Speaker B: It's an attraction. Yeah. Dollywood, that's another one.
[00:15:01] Speaker A: You know, that's splash country if it's summer.
[00:15:03] Speaker B: Yeah. There's. There's so much up there that you can do.
[00:15:05] Speaker A: I.
[00:15:05] Speaker B: Absolutely. Because I am a local to East Tennessee and I drive constantly, you know, around these places. I can't stand going now.
[00:15:15] Speaker A: Oh yeah.
[00:15:15] Speaker B: But I hate going up there. But I mean, if you ain't never been, you need to experience it and go. Because it is an experience. And Gatlinburg is more for your.
It's more for your. Your. Your more of a chilled, laid back environment.
[00:15:28] Speaker A: And you're gonna get out and walk.
[00:15:30] Speaker B: You walk in Gatlinburg.
[00:15:31] Speaker A: It's real small.
[00:15:32] Speaker B: Anakea. We had.
[00:15:33] Speaker A: We chill. Gatlinburg is not chill. Well, it's crazy.
[00:15:37] Speaker B: It's not pigeon. It's not. It's not the. The hub like Pigeon Forges. Pigeon Forge is the. The hustle and the bustle and the, the. The.
[00:15:45] Speaker A: Well, it's definitely more laid back cuz it's smaller. There's no Doubt about that. But it's not laid back.
[00:15:49] Speaker B: Oh, it's not. It's not. It's.
[00:15:50] Speaker A: One time me and Megan got stopped at the red light by the police officer right there as the Christmas parade was coming down. We were first ones in line. Like, you couldn't have picked a better seat.
[00:15:58] Speaker B: I know.
[00:15:59] Speaker A: It was great.
[00:15:59] Speaker B: Well, it's.
[00:16:00] Speaker A: It's fine to see the Christmas parade.
[00:16:01] Speaker B: Oh, well, if you were. Yeah. If you were going for that, we were hung in it, or we got.
[00:16:06] Speaker A: Lucky enough to be stopped and there was no other cars in front. It was like we. We'd sit. We could have got out and put chairs right there.
[00:16:12] Speaker B: You just planned it.
[00:16:13] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:16:14] Speaker B: We couldn't have planned that then.
[00:16:15] Speaker A: No. It worked out great, though. But.
[00:16:18] Speaker B: But Gatlinburg, I feel like it's more for.
It's more of a relaxed, older crowd. Yeah, older.
[00:16:26] Speaker A: Older. Okay.
[00:16:26] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, more of a relaxed. I guess I see what you're saying.
[00:16:30] Speaker A: Have you ever been up to Anakeesta?
[00:16:31] Speaker B: Yeah, we had season passes. I don't know if our season passes.
[00:16:34] Speaker A: That much to do up there.
[00:16:35] Speaker B: Have you never been?
[00:16:36] Speaker A: I've never been.
[00:16:37] Speaker B: Oh, my gosh. Yeah, it's awesome up there. I mean, it's nice. Like on a Sunday in the, like, say, after church or something. I'm just like, let's go, Anakeesta. All you got to do now, if you ain't got season passes, it's terrible because the line that usually is there is. Is.
[00:16:53] Speaker A: Is to get up there.
[00:16:54] Speaker B: Yeah. Is from there to the dang aquarium across the road is what it feels like. But they've got this. This line that's just zigzags for feels like. And if you. And if you haven't got your tick or your. Your season passes or tickets or anything, you're. You plan to be on that line for at least two to three hours. Just get them on. Oh, it was Terry. It's terrible. Get them online, get your season passes, and then you can renew them every year. But it's really good money because you can just say it's not bad.
[00:17:20] Speaker A: It's nothing like Dollywood.
[00:17:22] Speaker B: Oh, gosh. No, no, no, no, no. Like, a season pass for a whole family was maybe 150 bucks for the whole family.
[00:17:30] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:17:30] Speaker B: You know, and you literally walk around. You literally walk around.
Get on the. You. Here's your season pass. You get on the trolley and you're. There's. There's 400 people outside.
[00:17:41] Speaker A: One time I started roll up there.
[00:17:43] Speaker B: And you take off up the mountain.
[00:17:44] Speaker A: We were. We were up there for our anniversary and. And that's actually something I've thought about, going up there for our anniversary. We were going to do it one time. That's how this happened. We were standing in line, me and Megan were. And it was just us. And we were up there just for like a weekend or whatever. Friday night, Saturday night or something like that.
And we were standing in line and I had one of the work. The one of the workers that was like loading people on the tram or whatever the heck you call it. It goes up the mountain there.
[00:18:09] Speaker B: Oh, on the. The driving up. Up it.
[00:18:12] Speaker A: No, no, no, no.
[00:18:13] Speaker B: Up Anakeesta or on the like where.
[00:18:15] Speaker A: You'Re loading that, like the line you're talking about. I was standing in a line there and it was. There's no way. It was two to three hours long. It was probably been 30 minutes. I wasn't even impatient enough to wait on that.
But I was standing in that line. The worker that was standing there and he sees me kind of talking to Megan and jumping in and out of line. Like I didn't know what we were going to do. Wanting to wait or not wanting to way. Anyway, the worker gets out of line and he's like. He's like, hey man, I'll get you some tickets here. Just a minute. I'm about to get off work, you know, and I'll slip you some. You can get up there, you know, and.
But I was kind of like, yeah, I don't know if I trust this guy, you know. So anyway, we ended up not going. So that's why I've never been.
[00:18:55] Speaker B: It's good. It's something like on a Sunday evening, just go up there, hang out with the family. You can.
And my cousins have told me that like if you. Before you get into Gatlinburg, you can stop at the. The trolley pickup on the right.
[00:19:09] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:19:10] Speaker B: And you can park your car there and ride that trolley right up to Anakeesta. Get off.
This is all Gatlinburg. Free. Free. It's not gonna cost anything. I didn't know that was even a thing.
[00:19:21] Speaker A: So you don't have to ride that thing up through there.
[00:19:24] Speaker B: Ride what?
[00:19:24] Speaker A: The tram that goes up the mountain.
[00:19:26] Speaker B: No, you can get on, you know, you can get on that trough. The sky lift and take you up too.
[00:19:31] Speaker A: Well, I know, but you can drive up there.
[00:19:33] Speaker B: They'll drive you up in a bus too. Yeah. They'll drive you in a bus right up a mountain. Yeah.
[00:19:38] Speaker A: Instead of wait two, three hours.
[00:19:41] Speaker B: But the parking's terrible there. If you can get on that.
[00:19:43] Speaker A: If you can get on that trolley.
[00:19:44] Speaker B: You don't have to Trolley, you don't have to worry about parking. They'll bring you right back to your car when you get done.
You just got to know your times.
[00:19:50] Speaker A: I had no idea. That's a good. That's a nice little town.
[00:19:53] Speaker B: Oh, well, if you want to go and park there, they said you can just. You can. You can just make your stops, you know. You know, you want to stop at the aquarium. You go to the aquarium, you tell them you want to, you know, ever, you know, wherever, out in Gatlinburg, they just take you anywhere you want to go. Yeah, I didn't even know that was a thing. Yeah, and I think that. I think it'll take you on into Pigeon Forge, you know, that sort of thing. If you want to go out that way. I had no idea. That's all free. That ain't cost you nothing to ride the dang thing.
[00:20:19] Speaker A: You remember that guy?
He's like an outside salesman for one of our parts stores. We used. Remember his. His cabin burned up there when all them.
Oh, yeah, when all those fires were bad.
[00:20:30] Speaker B: Who was that?
[00:20:31] Speaker A: I don't remember his name. I can't remember what.
I can't remember what his name was. But he didn't work there that long. He was there for a couple years or so. Yeah, he lost his house up there. It's where he lived, you know. But that's when I come to the realization how bad house fires were. I remember him telling me, like, you know, we moved in this apartment in the meantime, while we're figuring out what to do, trying to make it more like home. I was gonna hang some pictures up, and I'm like, you know, so I got some nails and I go there. I'm like, I ain't got no hammer. You know, hammer's gone. And he goes and gets that. Then he comes back and he's like, well, you know, of course we think, well, we need toothbrushes and toothpaste and soap and all that. And then it's like, dang, we need a shower curtain. We got a shower curtain. They have to go back to the store. You know, all that back and forth things that you.
Because you have, you know.
[00:21:23] Speaker B: Yeah. You don't even think about it.
[00:21:24] Speaker A: Yeah, it was awful.
[00:21:25] Speaker B: So, yeah, you know, that's for. For me, that was a treat going up there. But nowadays, it's. It's. I can't.
[00:21:34] Speaker A: It's a hassle.
[00:21:34] Speaker B: It can't even go up. I don't even like going up there. It's a, it's an experience for people that's never done it. But for us locals, you don't listen.
[00:21:42] Speaker A: To a lot of country music. That's like a Travis Tritt song. The old Sunday drive has turned into a chore. Yeah.
[00:21:47] Speaker B: Yeah, that's very true. That's what it is. That's exactly what it is.
[00:21:52] Speaker A: Let's go ahead and hit Kate's co while we're talking about that little, little town outside our towns. And they, they, they pride themselves on a little bit quieter, you know, area not so touristy.
[00:22:02] Speaker B: It's. It's another one of them for me.
[00:22:06] Speaker A: You know, I don't like it.
[00:22:07] Speaker B: I don't like going.
[00:22:08] Speaker A: You get a ticket driving through there. You ain't careful.
[00:22:10] Speaker B: I don't like. I, I'm not a big fan of.
[00:22:12] Speaker A: Going to Townsend itself.
[00:22:14] Speaker B: Is that what Cades Cove?
[00:22:16] Speaker A: Yeah, K K's Cove can be. That's another one.
[00:22:18] Speaker B: It's an experience, but you got it. You got to find the time to go. I mean, it's, it's 11 mile loop.
[00:22:26] Speaker A: I've walked that.
Have you? Yeah, Yeah, I walked around it before.
[00:22:30] Speaker B: My goodness. I mean, it wouldn't be bad. I mean, it wouldn't be terrible.
[00:22:34] Speaker A: You know, I walked to Megan's mom and dad's house from my house that was 17 miles.
[00:22:38] Speaker B: I remember that.
[00:22:39] Speaker A: But yeah, I walked. I walked the loop one time and.
[00:22:41] Speaker B: I think, I think if you don't. If you remember when all that happened. Remember I was telling you about Mount Leconte and how fast you could do it and all that?
[00:22:48] Speaker A: Yeah, it was me and Eric that had a.
[00:22:50] Speaker B: No, it was me and you.
[00:22:51] Speaker A: No, it was me and you can make it up without.
[00:22:54] Speaker B: You was telling me how fast you think you can do it? Because I think it's like I can't remember Mount Leconte. It's like four or five miles up and you're like, dude, I can do that in two and a half hours or whatever.
[00:23:04] Speaker A: I don't remember what we talked about.
[00:23:06] Speaker B: It was something like it was two and a half, three and a half or whatever. Because it took us like four or five hours to get up it. I mean, it's not an easy climb. It's something we should do though.
[00:23:15] Speaker A: We still. Yeah, if we can live through it.
[00:23:17] Speaker B: We can live through it. We just.
[00:23:18] Speaker A: I had a guy. So there's a guy that comes into work. He's a customer of ours. He just got back from his 70th trip up Malecon, he's climbed it 70 times.
[00:23:28] Speaker B: Well, if he can do it, I'm sure you can do it too.
I've done it. I've done it twice.
[00:23:33] Speaker A: May put you to shame.
[00:23:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Oh that can absolutely.
[00:23:36] Speaker A: But Cades Cove. So 11 mile loop drive around on a. It's, it's gravel. It's Smoky Mountain national park is what it is.
[00:23:43] Speaker B: Gravel part pavement or is it all paid?
[00:23:46] Speaker A: No, it's all paved. There are gravel roads that cut through and stuff and go to places. But yeah, there's, and there's hiking trails off some, some of it. One time Abrams Falls trailheads right there. That's, I don't remember what it is. I think it's a, I think it's a one, maybe one and a half miles falls but maybe it's a lot longer. Maybe it's two and a half. I can't remember but. So like in other words, three to five mile round hike or something like that went. Me and Megan were dating and we went up there. She said I want to see Abrams Falls. She kept saying she walked it like back here to it. What she didn't know is how far it was going to be and I wouldn't let her back down. She had flip flops on all the way there and back in dollar store flip flops.
[00:24:26] Speaker B: Now she made it.
[00:24:28] Speaker A: She did.
[00:24:28] Speaker B: She talking about like the little, the ones that go in between. Oh yeah.
[00:24:32] Speaker A: I think it was a long time ago but yeah, she did it in flip flops. I mean there's people coming out of there with backpacks and walking slicks and she didn't, she was, I'd be awful. She's tough.
But yeah, we did that.
But you see a lot. So it's protected because it's national forest. You know, it's Smoky Mountain national park. So you see a lot of big deer and bear and you know there's no elk in that park.
[00:24:57] Speaker B: I've not ever seen it. I'm not taking away from it but every dang time I go up there I never ever see anything worth going. I see horses. That's all I ever see is them wild horses and sit there and graze at the fence.
[00:25:09] Speaker A: One time I went up there during the.
[00:25:11] Speaker B: Never seen a bear.
[00:25:12] Speaker A: Really?
[00:25:13] Speaker B: Nothing up there? No. Oh, I've seen the only thing I've ever seen, a deer up there.
[00:25:17] Speaker A: God, that's, that's about impossible.
[00:25:19] Speaker B: Well I, I, I don't know. I, I ha.
[00:25:21] Speaker A: I've seen big deer up there.
[00:25:22] Speaker B: I ain't never big, but.
[00:25:24] Speaker A: Yeah, so anyway. Yeah, so Kate's CO is not that far from there, so that. That'd be good.
[00:25:35] Speaker B: Parsons Branch.
That's a nice little trail. It's a quick little trail that you can jet off in to get to. To. It comes out at the Dragon.
Yeah.
[00:25:45] Speaker A: Or well, it'd be.
[00:25:46] Speaker B: It'd be Blunt county, comes back into Blount county there.
[00:25:51] Speaker A: So the dragon.
[00:25:52] Speaker B: 129 dragon.
[00:25:53] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:25:53] Speaker B: Dragon's a good one.
[00:25:54] Speaker A: Everybody know if you're riding motorcycles or.
[00:25:57] Speaker B: Sports cars, it don't matter what it.
[00:25:59] Speaker A: Is, you're gonna know. People are gonna know what the Dragon is. You know, what is it? How many curves and.
[00:26:04] Speaker B: 318. 11 miles. Yeah, yeah. 318, 11 miles.
[00:26:09] Speaker A: You know, I've walked that before.
[00:26:10] Speaker B: No, I've just walked that. So full of freaking crap.
[00:26:14] Speaker A: I. Just kidding.
[00:26:16] Speaker B: Yeah. You've walked everything else back in the day, honey, I walked. Walked a thousand miles.
[00:26:24] Speaker A: Yeah, right.
Uphill, both ways. Yeah.
[00:26:27] Speaker B: But yeah, yeah, it's awesome. I mean, for me, I'm a local to it, so I run it. I mean, I've probably run it. I'd hate to say. I probably say I've run it 20 times this year.
Going up on Sundays before breakfast, I mean before church, to have breakfast up there at 8 o', clock, go up there, have coffee. They got mugs up there. You buy mugs.
[00:26:56] Speaker A: Unlimited coffee, Bring it back in.
[00:26:57] Speaker B: You bring it back in anytime you come in. Unlimited coffee, you got a souvenir, whatever.
Motorcycles, cars, we got good breakfast.
[00:27:05] Speaker A: Where's it at?
[00:27:06] Speaker B: Good breakfast.
[00:27:06] Speaker A: Where's that at?
[00:27:07] Speaker B: Deals Gap. Deals Gap. As soon as you pass into the North Carolina. The fence up there, it's on the left. It's on the left? Yeah, man. You got a souvenir store, Killboy on the right.
You know, people come from all over the world to ride that thing. And we're literally 35 minutes away from it.
[00:27:24] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:27:25] Speaker B: I mean, come from overseas. I mean, they come. People, they import their cars over here just to drive them on the Dragon, which is whatever you want to do. I mean, it's not. It. It's awesome and it's an awesome experience, but I wouldn't go to all that.
[00:27:37] Speaker A: Trouble and can be very dangerous.
[00:27:39] Speaker B: Absolutely.
[00:27:40] Speaker A: A lot of people killed.
[00:27:41] Speaker B: A lot of people. A ton of wrecks, people killed. You have to be. You have to. When you go, if it's hopping on a.
On a Saturday or a Sunday, you go and it's hopping. You have to be very aware and Looking as far as you can ahead when you go because you got to see what's coming.
[00:27:59] Speaker A: Who's not going to make that curve and come over.
[00:28:01] Speaker B: Well, and people, they don't. The curve we just went up last Sunday and they were some high end Porsches and stuff, but they were some wrecks up there. Sunday, not while we were on it, but they were some as the day progressed on Saturday and Sunday.
But some high end Porsches, you know, you see some, you see Lamborghinis, you see anything you want to. If you want to see any exotic cars, you go to the Dragon and you'll see anything you want to see up there.
They've had two or three million dollar cars run it, you know, which is again to me is just. There's no way I would do anything. I would not take my car like that, that kind of car to something like that.
[00:28:44] Speaker A: You'd much rather get that on the autobahn.
[00:28:46] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Open that thing up and everybody's headed the same way. Yeah, yeah.
You know, the curves are so deceptive. I mean, they're so deceptive on how, you know, you go around a curve and it keeps going, it keeps going, it keeps going and you don't realize it's a hairpin. And that's when you're. Yeah, that's when you're out in the.
[00:29:03] Speaker A: Or it's got. Or it's got like the wrong or more of a pitch or less.
[00:29:07] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. The road. And so the road comes out from underneath. Over Judge. Yeah, absolutely.
[00:29:13] Speaker A: Motorcycles wreck all the time. Yeah, I do up there.
[00:29:16] Speaker B: And, but, and then you do have some locals. We know, we know a guy that, that he's a big local and he is a fast local that, I mean, you know, crazy how fast they are up there. I mean they can run that 11 miles in like nine minutes.
Well, it's not technically 11 miles. It's probably more like nine miles in 11 minutes. But some of the fastest guys up there are running them like nine, 20, you know, just ridiculous speeds. I mean some of, I don't know.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: How the cops just up there like you're done.
[00:29:49] Speaker B: Yeah, well, exactly. And they, and they do stay up there, but they're, you know, everybody's got their little sign language that they, they let them know that cops are, you know, you know, present, but they, they're rippers. I mean, every time you go up there, you can guarantee somebody's going to be ripping 60 to 120. Pasture, it don't matter. Yeah, that's crazy.
[00:30:08] Speaker A: It's a death wish.
[00:30:10] Speaker B: It can be. Yeah.
That's a really good one here in Tennessee. I mean in east Tennessee.
[00:30:15] Speaker A: Yeah, there's a bunch of hiking trails. We got all these mountains around us staying on state parks. There's another good one over in Crosville. Cumberland Mountain State Park.
[00:30:29] Speaker B: Cumberland Mountain.
[00:30:30] Speaker A: We've stayed there before. They've even got a golf course in that state park.
[00:30:33] Speaker B: I've stayed in some cabins over there. It was really, really nice. Oh yeah, really nice cabins and cumbers.
[00:30:38] Speaker A: Yeah you got. So you got that one golf course and campground and I think they had a pool over there too. I'm pretty sure. Just all kinds of stuff over there.
[00:30:47] Speaker B: So the campsite, they have a golfing course.
[00:30:51] Speaker A: They have a golf course in the state park. There's a restaurant in there.
Yeah, there's a restaurant.
[00:30:55] Speaker B: That's pretty neat.
[00:30:56] Speaker A: Yeah there's. But there's a ton of state. We could talk about camping all day long with. With different places. There's a bunch of different state parks and well we used to do. We.
[00:31:06] Speaker B: There's in East Tennessee. There is.
Windrock's a good place.
[00:31:10] Speaker A: Oh man, I forgot about Windrock.
[00:31:12] Speaker B: We used to burn that place up. Royal Blue and Windrock.
[00:31:16] Speaker A: I never, I've never been to Royal Blue.
[00:31:18] Speaker B: Oh you hadn't? Oh, we went with Eugene, one of the old mechanics that we used to work with.
[00:31:26] Speaker A: Yeah, we also went to Notching Hill with him. That was. That used to be TVA land maybe. Well it got bought.
[00:31:35] Speaker B: Oh dude.
[00:31:35] Speaker A: It's private property now. Really?
[00:31:37] Speaker B: That somebody bought it?
[00:31:38] Speaker A: Yeah, I think they bought out half of it and then like somebody got the other half or maybe I. I don't know. I just know you can't go in and out of it now. And it's not, it's not TVA property anymore. You see when it's tva, you know, we don't know. We used to have ride a thons and walkathons out there with St. Jude's every year when I was growing up as a kid.
[00:31:54] Speaker B: Really I didn't even know they had anything on Notching Hill.
[00:31:57] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. There's an old barn out there in the field and we'd everybody ride horses or horse, you know, horse drawn wagons or whatever. I used to ride my uncle in the wagons. Dad ride a mule or horses and when you ride out there or he'd walk it. He walked it a lot.
And you start at the pony rutan and you go all the way.
[00:32:15] Speaker B: That's what I was going to ask. How do you get there. You go down Popper down.
[00:32:18] Speaker A: Yeah, it was, it was. What it was was a St. Jude Rython walkathon that the pony Ruatan put on. And you could come and sign up and pay an entry fee.
[00:32:26] Speaker B: You walk all the way from a Piney Route 10 down.
[00:32:28] Speaker A: Yeah, you'd walk all the way down Vaughn Road, all the way down to the end of Notching Hill.
[00:32:32] Speaker B: Oh, you go down Bonnell. You don't go down by Poplar Springs.
[00:32:36] Speaker A: No, you wouldn't go down Poplar Springs. You wouldn't go in the back way. You go down the other way and because I remember one time I was walking it and I'm down there where I could see the meal man and my mammy and pap stopped pick me up so I didn't have to walk no further. But you go out there and be Costner. I'd be out there at that bar and cooking hot hamburgers, hot dogs. Because with your, with your thing you could. With your ticket, I guess you could walk all the way there and then eat and then you'd leave. So it was a thing to raise money for St. Jude's okay. But yeah, we did that all the time for that.
I tell you what, I'll give you. And I'll tell you what, don't fact check me on this. Actually you could if you want to pull out your phone and fact check me or my phone.
The Lost Sea Adventure in Sweetwater.
That is.
[00:33:19] Speaker B: Oh, that's awesome too.
[00:33:20] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:33:20] Speaker B: That's especially being right here in our back. I mean literally, I live. I mean I live very close to the lossy. Both of us do.
[00:33:27] Speaker A: Yeah. Cave. Cave system underground. They've made a tourist attraction out of it. It's an underwater lake, largest lake.
I think so in the world of the United States. Underground lake.
[00:33:38] Speaker B: I'm not 100 sure.
[00:33:39] Speaker A: We'd have to look that up.
I'm curious about that. But it's.
I heard a statistic on it that's pretty crazy. I'm actually going to look this up just so.
[00:33:48] Speaker B: And then, and then.
[00:33:50] Speaker A: I mean I was. I heard on the radio one time that it is visited annually in a year more than the Grand Canyon.
[00:33:57] Speaker B: Wow. I would not have thought that.
[00:33:58] Speaker A: I would. I didn't think it either. Wow, the Lost Sea Adventure, huh?
[00:34:04] Speaker B: Well, they do have a really, really, really neat setup.
[00:34:07] Speaker A: They do. You can do overnight tours too. And so you know that you can.
[00:34:10] Speaker B: Actually go splunking the place. Yeah, the wild tour.
[00:34:12] Speaker A: It takes you to a wild tour.
[00:34:13] Speaker B: That spelunking that's pretty cool.
[00:34:15] Speaker A: One time, Eric, Eric McKinley, his daddy, he used to be a what, tour guide there. Yeah. When he's a kid, Eric's like, I grew up in Lost City. He said I can go down there, be a tour guide. Today he's like, stalactite, stalagmite, Devil's hole.
I'm like, you got it. That is. That's what they talking about. You know, that's part of the thing.
Let's see here. Lossy adventure features a guided tour of the historic Craig Head C Caverns.
Culminating with a boat ride on the world on America's largest underground lake. So the largest one in America.
[00:34:52] Speaker B: Wow.
[00:34:53] Speaker A: The tour is a three quarter mile round trip. The last about an hour, 15 minutes. During the visit you will gain insights into the caverns, captivating history and observe remnants of its past. Used by Cherokee Indians, Confederate soldiers, and a colossal prehistoric Jaguar from over 20,000 years ago. A voyage on the Lost Sea is sure to be an adventure you'll never forget. So.
[00:35:15] Speaker B: Well, I've been. I've been several times and it's always a.
And the darkness too. That's wild. How dark it.
[00:35:21] Speaker A: Complete darkness. Yeah.
[00:35:22] Speaker B: Complete. The lights off. Yeah. I mean that's wild.
[00:35:25] Speaker A: Yeah. You'll go blind.
Go blind. Your retinas will what, like eat themselves alive or something like that? Looking, searching for. Live though.
[00:35:33] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:35:33] Speaker A: You'll go blind if you sit in there.
[00:35:35] Speaker B: Pretty wild.
[00:35:35] Speaker A: But yeah, I'd probably encourage people to go see that. That's cool. And they just redone it too. They tore down that whole entrance and redone the gift shop and entrance and everything. I think I've seen it.
[00:35:45] Speaker B: I'd like to take. I'd like to take the kids one day.
[00:35:47] Speaker A: Yeah. Reese has been a couple times. Avery's never been. He wouldn't come out of there. We'd lose him. He'd go through the smallest hole you possibly find and be gone.
[00:35:54] Speaker B: Of course.
[00:35:55] Speaker A: I ain't gonna fit.
Yeah.
But that's a super cool place that I'm. That I really.
[00:36:00] Speaker B: We're only. We're literally. I mean, we're just. We're just minutes away.
[00:36:04] Speaker A: I know. We're lucky. We're lucky.
[00:36:07] Speaker B: Yeah. From Lossy, I mean, there's nothing that we've talked about right here that's no more than an hour and a half at the most from us.
[00:36:15] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean none of it's about. None of it.
[00:36:17] Speaker B: Just mean Indian boundary.
[00:36:19] Speaker A: I get up to Indian boundary, fill full water and get up there in my spot in two hours.
[00:36:24] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:36:25] Speaker A: So it probably takes me 20 minutes to fill up and that's pulling the camper. So. Yeah, probably about an hour and a half from the house or something like that.
[00:36:30] Speaker B: Yep, I'd say it definitely is for me, an hour and a half.
[00:36:33] Speaker A: What else you got? You got any other places you can think of?
We're probably missing something. Like how in the world are they not.
[00:36:40] Speaker B: Yeah, I know. Yeah. Something real simple.
I know we're missing stuff. I mean we have. I mean we've got the koi down there. That's a really nice spot.
[00:36:52] Speaker A: Something. Oh, they had the Olympics there one year.
[00:36:56] Speaker B: Yes, they did.
[00:36:56] Speaker A: They had the Olympics. I guess it's whitewater rafting. The Olympics was like something else. I guess it probably was. There's some kind of Olympics they held.
[00:37:05] Speaker B: Out down in Okoi and that's right down. Down the road from us also.
[00:37:09] Speaker A: Hiwassee river is awesome too.
[00:37:11] Speaker B: That's a nice one, I think.
[00:37:12] Speaker A: Is it one of those two have had part of the movie Deliverance shot on. It didn't filmed on it.
[00:37:20] Speaker B: Yeah, it did.
[00:37:22] Speaker A: I don't know which one it was.
[00:37:23] Speaker B: But yep, it did.
[00:37:24] Speaker A: It's probably the part where Burt Reynolds jumps in the white water would be my guess. But yeah, big whitewater rafting on the Ocoee.
[00:37:30] Speaker B: I actually when I was down there, I seen that they had some sort.
[00:37:34] Speaker A: Of little thing about it.
[00:37:36] Speaker B: Yeah, it was a write up on it. Yeah. Really? Yeah.
[00:37:39] Speaker A: Okay. So I'm not making something up.
[00:37:40] Speaker B: No, no, no, it is, it is. It's. It's. Yeah, the dam. Fontana Dam. That's a. That's a sight to see.
[00:37:48] Speaker A: It is.
[00:37:48] Speaker B: That's a sight to see here.
[00:37:50] Speaker A: Yeah. That's a big dam. It puts you in mind of which.
[00:37:53] Speaker B: That's not here. That's not in east Tennessee though. I take that back. That's not in each Tennessee.
[00:37:56] Speaker A: I guess North Carolina.
[00:37:57] Speaker B: It is North Carolina.
[00:37:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:37:59] Speaker B: That's not even scratch it. But go look at, you know, just go. Go to it one day. It's not far from us, so it doesn't feel we can be about anywhere. We could be in another state pretty quick from where we're at.
[00:38:12] Speaker A: It's a beautiful. Damn.
[00:38:13] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:38:16] Speaker A: What else we got.
Sollywood and everything.
[00:38:25] Speaker B: There's a lot of attraction.
[00:38:26] Speaker A: Oh goodness. You know, to talk about. I mean, East Tennessee, would you consider.
[00:38:36] Speaker B: We have Oak Ridge here too. That's pretty cool. Yeah, I mean that's. That's a pretty cool spot. I mean there's a lot of history in Oak Ridge?
[00:38:42] Speaker A: Well, yeah, a ton. Just a movie made about it there.
[00:38:46] Speaker B: Yeah, I was there. Yeah.
[00:38:48] Speaker A: Oppenheimer or whatever.
[00:38:49] Speaker B: I haven't.
[00:38:50] Speaker A: Ain't that about. I mean, that's about the atomic bomb being made. That's where it was.
[00:38:53] Speaker B: I have no idea.
[00:38:54] Speaker A: You know, we split the atom in Oak Ridge, did we not?
[00:38:56] Speaker B: Yeah, well, I. You know, I didn't realize, like. I did know, but I didn't know, like, that place is on lock.
[00:39:03] Speaker A: I mean, they.
[00:39:04] Speaker B: I mean, I understand why, but I didn't realize. I met some people, you know, they don't. They don't talk about it a lot and. You know, because I guess they can't.
I didn't realize how locked down and how, like, they're. They're.
They know you. They know you very well. They watch you very well in. You know, working in that place.
[00:39:24] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, yeah. You can't have phones or anything like it. Y12. Yeah. Yeah. I had people call me.
[00:39:32] Speaker B: They know what's in your bank account. They know.
I mean, they know. They watch your money going in out of your bank account, make sure you're.
[00:39:38] Speaker A: Not getting, like, somehow some kind of Titus.
[00:39:40] Speaker B: And I didn't. I didn't realize it was. I mean, I just didn't think about that. That was crazy. I could not believe. You know, they just. They see a large amount of money moving in and out of a bank account, they.
They take.
[00:39:54] Speaker A: You can't be. You can't be letting it slip working over there. I guess there's. People know more than they should, I guess you could say. Yeah.
[00:40:03] Speaker B: But. Yeah, that's.
[00:40:04] Speaker A: That's the places in east Tennessee that I'd suggest going right off the top of my head. I love all the places we talked about is if you've never been to any of them, it's worth going.
[00:40:12] Speaker B: Make it make. Yeah, just make a trip and make a week of it.
[00:40:15] Speaker A: And you're right. Fontana Dam, we got a bunch of dams.
[00:40:18] Speaker B: Oh, there's a ton.
[00:40:19] Speaker A: I mean, there's a. Because you got Fontana Dam.
[00:40:21] Speaker B: You got Chill Howie right here.
[00:40:22] Speaker A: Chill Howie's right behind us. Yeah, it's not nothing crazy, though.
[00:40:25] Speaker B: No, but it's a pretty little dam.
[00:40:27] Speaker A: Fontana is big, though.
[00:40:28] Speaker B: If you go over Carolina, there's just plaque after plaque after plaque. You can read for days.
[00:40:33] Speaker A: I've been to the Hoover Dam four times now, so I'm like, yeah, you can't.
[00:40:39] Speaker B: You can't.
[00:40:39] Speaker A: You ain't gonna be Hoover.
[00:40:40] Speaker B: No.
[00:40:40] Speaker A: You know, but it puts you in mind of it like a little Mini Hoover. Or something.
[00:40:43] Speaker B: I wouldn't know. I hadn't seen it.
[00:40:44] Speaker A: So that's, you know, it's absolutely incredible.
[00:40:48] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:40:49] Speaker A: Imagine it won't get off on other states. We'll do that another time. But yeah, that's about.
I mean, other than your, like normal, like just little local things like forts. We have Fort. Fort Loudoun and Bono. Yeah, you know, that's just a fort that's right here.
[00:41:05] Speaker B: Very. That's got a lot of history behind.
[00:41:07] Speaker A: And we're not even covering to like all the way up to Nashville, Middle Tennessee, you know, like where East Tennessee kind of starts.
[00:41:12] Speaker B: So we're more in East Tennessee most of all. That.
[00:41:15] Speaker A: Yeah, that's. That's east. East Tennessee. You know, we're not even over towards Crosswells. Well, except for Cumberland Gap. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Which is more mountains.
[00:41:23] Speaker B: You know, we're surrounded by it. We're surrounded by.
[00:41:27] Speaker A: And if you go. If you go up a little bit closer to Kentucky and stay in East Tennessee, you've got.
There's.
Bandy Creek Campground is up there, which is.
It's.
If you get. If you got. Went through Crossville towards Jamestown.
East Fork Stables and Campgrounds. We rode horses over there a bunch. And if you keep going, it goes into where Bandy Creek is, which is actually part of Big South Fork.
So that's.
[00:41:56] Speaker B: That's neat.
[00:41:57] Speaker A: Yeah, that's a. That's another big hiking, horse riding.
That area over there.
A bunch of that, you know, so I'm trying to get out of the horse business. I don't want horses anymore.
[00:42:10] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:42:11] Speaker A: Tired of having them.
[00:42:12] Speaker B: Don't blame you.
[00:42:14] Speaker A: All right.
[00:42:15] Speaker B: All right. I think that's it.
