Thank you for sharing this awesome story . I am putting this trip to see the museum in my bucket list . .I am an educator retiree and alimony everyday I watch the Waltons . The show takes me back to when I was growing up a simply life and good neighborly people. ❤

Thanks so much for the tour! Your photography and video skills are very good ... no shaky camera, nothing blurred, no fast jerky movements, but just nice, slow views so we can take in the details of each interesting room. God bless you and your family!

Thank you so much Stephen for sharing your visit to Earl Hamner’s museum. The Walton’s was one of my favorite shows. ❤️

I loved The Waltons growing up. Thanks for sharing!!

This is very interesting...i would love to see all this

Oh love this! Watched reruns for years! Thanks for sharing❤

I watched the Waltons and loved the show! This looks so much like it did on t.v. Thank you.

Hi Col Stephen! This is so cool! I still watch The Waltons reruns. The oak kitchen cupboard (Houser?) Behind y'all at the kitchen table is identical to the one I lost to the CA wildfire! Enjoyed seeing this! Looking forward to more Sunday messages from you, too! In Christ's Love JJ

I love the Walton’s show. Grandpa and John boy and the rich sisters…

Ahh, the Baldwin sisters. They used to crack me up. Grandpa's face would light up with the thought of "the recipe."

Wow! The Bed and Breakfast is very neat. Great museum too!

Wow thank you for sharing this jewel! Very interesting as I grew up watching the Walton’s and miss these good wholesome shows!

I guess it’s the 50+ years anniversary now. Im seeing more about Walton’s, litt house on prairie, etc. your mom would love this! I still miss her and keep watching older videos. Thanks for sharing!

I loved The Baldwin sisters. They didn’t seem to know that they were making alcohol lol❤️

Oh the wonderful memories, I would tell my Mother i was going to have 7 children when I grew up. You made my day Steve, memories of watching with my family, so thick I had tears in my eyes. Bless you and thank you so much.xo ❤😊

Thanks for sharing this! I was a kid in the 70s, and watched this every week. I wanted to BE a Walton!

Thanks for sharing!!! Very interesting. Makes me want to visit there.

I want to see that movie and read the book Hamner wrote the movie was based on.

My father's family are all from the area. He used to email back and forth with Mr Hamner, I guess regarding the old days in that area. I've only been to the area a few times and it predates "The Walton's" but if I ever get back, I'd love to see all of this in person. You did an amazing job showing it off. I enjoyed it!

I live here in Virginia & have watched the show for years. Although, the bed & breakfast is a beautiful replica, I've always wanted to tour the real home. If it's now privately owned & unavailable for tour, my fascination to visit is no longer there. It just wouldn't be the same to tour a replica & have to pay to do so. It's really a shame they sold the real home & not keep it all together. The actual home is what peaks a lot of fans interest in visiting.

Back in the 80's, if you stopped in Schyler you stood a good chance of seeing and talking to Earl's mother, Doris. She would be sitting on the porch of her house, and she seemed to love it when folks would stop and chat with her. She was a wealth of knowledge about the town, and the show. A very kind lady with a wonderful personality. Thanks for taking us along. So good to see the family all together. I'm sure you and the RMR were really enjoying your kids all in one place. Have a great week and God bless!

I THOUGHT THE REAL WALTON HOUSE WAS THE B&B AND MUSUM

@PhyllisStokes

Ай бұрын

The real “Walton house” is Earl Hamner’s childhood home. That’s the last picture I show and is just up the street from the other buildings. The B&B is a recreation of the house from the television show. The museum is across the street from that and is Earl’s old school he graduated from.

Aunt Martha Corine painted the pony cart.

The recreation doesn't look very authentic. Too tidy and new looking.

Cool!! Thanks, Cap 🫡...although I liked calling you Colonel 😆❤
