Very good video! I must note that the museum was the life's work of John Rice Irwin who lived on this property. He gathered, restored, preserved all this history for us. We lived not far away in the 1980s and would take all our out-of-town visitors there. Mr. Irwin lived there and could often be found in the museum. Very nice man, happy to chat with visitors. By the way - Alex Haley was his good friend and lived across the road. Thanks

Hubby and I have been there several times, always enjoy it. Such rich and interesting history. It is a Smithsonian affiliate museum. We would always see the advertising signs on the highway on our way to the Smokies, one day decided to stop by. It is a gem . I agree with you on that good country cooking, yummy. So glad you went there and vlogged it and that you enjoyed it.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

My mom would of loved this museum.

Poor “Big T” he seems to have arthritis like our cat. She is 12 years old. I love seeing him out in his stroller.

That was soooo interesting. And l just love seeing 👀 Big T .

I love the signs Jesus is coming repent of your sins be ready praying 🙏 for everyone seek his face stay in the word .God bless

Never knew this place excited.....

Wow, that perpetual motion machine is pretty cool 😎

Thanks for touring this museum. Another place we will try to visit that you told us about. We appreciate you and your work more than you know. Thanks again!

That looks like a place we need to stop at. Great video like always

I love that place! My best friends wedding was there and there was a peacock that fanned out during the ceremony. It was perfect timing!

AWSOME history trip of Appalachia ! Thanks for another great trip ! Enjoyable and educational at the same time...

just wanted to thank you sooo much for coming to the museum. i really enjoyed this.

Great video . I've always wanted to go see it . Thanks for the tour.

I just moved to Knoxville in Dec. I love ❤️ these videos. They're helping me with exploring the old days!! Love it. I. 20 min SE of Clinton, so this is my next stop.

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing!

This video is Fantastic. I love this kind of content. But I enjoy all your videos . ❤❤❤

Loved, loved, Ioved it. Love the "old" stuff. Hey to ya'll and my man, Big T.👋❤ Thanks for sharing.

What an interesting place. So much great history.

Thanks so much for this video. My wife and I were there several years ago. Looks like there is much more there than was there when we visited. You do a great job, enjoyed so much. Keep up the great work and God bless.

We pass right past this on our way to the Smokeys. I've always said we need to stop and check this out, but for some reason I thought it was a little, not worth the time to stop kind of place. Man, was I wrong. It's our first stop this spring. That you. And God Bless.

Wow this is beautiful I love museums. I told my wife we gotta check it out we love the history. Mike and Karen you guys always do amazing VIDEOS stay safe.🤙🇺🇸👍

Love it ❤️👍🙏🏻

I am so happy that you got a hat, they have some beautiful things in the store

The Museum is a great day trip destination. Plan on arriving in the morning and spending the day exploring the entire site. Your lunch looked delicious. On weekends they sometimes have local history tours that are guided by some very knowledgeable people. The price for entry and meals is reasonable. The time you spend at the Museum will enrich your understanding of this mountain region and it’s people. Thanks for taking us along. God bless y’all. - Tennessee Smoky

Fascinating history!

I am from GA but have friends and visit and ride ATV trails in TN quite a bit. My husband and I drive by this all the time and I always say lets go see it (most of the time we are on our way to go ride and cant) but I have always wanted to visit. I told him today that I saw you guys video on it and I really want to go now... He said well you have already seen it now LOL. I will be making a trip to visit here very soon. Thanks so much for getting me started on what I will see here. Looks like so much history which I absolutely love! Much love and safe travels
