I took a church group of "Primetimers" to the Cumberland county playhouse to see a play on Buddy Holly back in Sept. of this year after eating at the lodge at Cumberland Mountain State Park. After the play, we stopped for about an hour at Buc-ees and had a great time. Thanks for the vids and keep them coming.

Welcome to Crossville! It’s still so odd seeing my home town on KZfaq 😂 I hope you enjoyed your stay! Y’all still here for our lovely winter weather?

Big T is adorable ! What a trooper 😊❤❤

👍❤ Enjoyed coming along with you! I'm loving what I see of Tennessee! Be safe, be blessed❤

Next time my husband & I head down to NC … we are stopping at a Buc-ee’s !! WOW !! Did not realize how MUCH they offer.🎉🎉

I enjoyed going along on your camping trip Via video! Your camping videos always bring back great memories. Thanks as always for taking us along!

I can’t believe I just saw my hometown on KZfaq!

The bridge they drove over from below is gorgeous. Looks like it belongs in Old England. Restaurant is good. Birds of Prey exhibit is fantastic.

Looks like you had a good time Mike, Karen, and Big T!

Thank you so much, Mike n Karen, for sharing with us, Cumberland Mtn. State Park, It was beautiful there, I love seeing all the stuff you two shared with us, Hugs n Love to you both even Mr. T. and Many Blessings

We spent two weeks in Cookeville tn on vacation this past October, and we loved it there and the people. We also took a drive to Crossville to visit bucces, and it was awesome. It was super busy and loud in there that day, but we'll worth the trip. Tennessee is so beautiful and so much has so much to offer. Great video. William

Buc-ee’s is awesome! Watching y’all’s videos makes me wish I had someone I could travel and share my life with. Thanks for taking us along with you.

Fall Creek Falls State Park is home to the beautiful Fall Creek Falls, at 256 feet, it is one of the highest waterfalls in the eastern US, located about 50 miles down the road from Cumberland Mountain State Park. It is definitely a sight to see anytime of the year!

Hey Mike and Karen I see that y'all were on another adventure and your new ride with Big t you can never go wrong when you are enjoying life the next video take care and God bless

Love the history of the State parks and how the CCC built for the State parks, I worked in the State park here in Yellow Springs Ohio called John Bryan SP. Love all the history the parks have to offer! Next trip to Gatlinburg, we will stop at a Buc-ee's !! Thanks for sharing your camping trip and how much fun it is to camp!!! Big T sure does love being with you !!

Been to that park many many times. You used to be able to swim in the lake right below the restaurant. There were a couple of platforms and a high dive! Good memories. ❤

Welcome to Crossville. Thanks for stopping by.

I grew up near Cumberland State Park! My great grandparents used to check me out from school to take me to eat at the restaurant there and to play at the playgrounds. A lot of childhood memories there ❤❤ y’all need to revisit in the fall

That’s our go to park when we just want to get a day or two away. Hubby likes the fact that we can walk to the restaurant.

Harold and I have been to that Buc-ees. It was crazy, I couldn’t wait to get out of there. I liked Karen’s ornaments for the grandkids. I will have to get some. We are coming up to Gatlinburg September 4-8. If it is close to lunch we will stop by for a barbecue sandwich. I can lean on the basket as a result of my sciatica in left leg 🦵. Keep praying for healing of sciatica please. I am going to physical therapy for it. We are going to some of the places you suggested. We are wanting a nice camper like you have. Harold bought a camper you pull but I don’t think our SUVS will pull. Hope Mike is doing well. God bless. Gail Taylor

Glad you two visited our home town. Buc-ee's is an experience for sure. Love your videos.

I live in middle Tennessee! I think the Smoky mountains are so gorgeous especially in the fall! New subbie 🤗

If I didn’t already live here, this video would make me want to visit!! The restaurant is great-Sunday fried chicken is the bomb 😊Merry Christmas!

Welcome to Crossville. Literally in my backyard. Cumberland Mountain State Park is one of my favorite places to hike. It is a wonderful respite!

Youur van is beautiful. Enjoyed the video. Love Buc-ee's. Thanks for sharing. My little dog, Buddy, made it through bladder stone surgery today. Thanks for the prayers and continue them for his rapid healing. Hello to my man. BIG T. Waiting patiently for the next video.

My hometown. Come back and visit. Buc-ees Crossville is actually the world’s largest until the one opens in Smokey Mtns. Many more lovely places to visit on the Plateau. Enjoy your videos

Its been awhile since I’ve had time to catch your videos but LOVE you two & enjoy them . I love to camp with my kids. & grandkids ! I grew up camping with parents too.

We live 2 miles from Bucee’s in East Texas! We stopped at that one on our way to the Smokey Mountains back in October! Thank y’all and God Bless

Love precious BIG T for me. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful time on your trip.😊🌲

State parks rock. Oh you got us wanting to get out camping. We just love smash burgers on the Blackstone. It is so nice of Big T to let you use his class B.

My wife agrees about the cinnamon rolls not having near enough cinnamon, so she tried the "paddle tail" and really liked it. They have less icing and more cinnamon like she likes.

You’re in our neck of the woods. We live in a area of Crossville called Fairfield Glade. Mostly retired people. There’s 11 lakes and 5 championship golf courses. We love to come down to the Homestead Harvest restaurants at the state ark for their buffet. Glad you could get down our way

Great video. We live in Crossville. Definitely come back in the summer, much prettier then. And try the restaurant, very good food.

Welcome to my new home of Crossville/Clarkrange TN. Buckees is a must stop for anyone driving on I-40. My first stop their was $160.00. Lots of jerky, Pork and also brisket sandwiches, fudge, coffee, roasted nuts, burritos, etc...

The food is excellent at the restaurant. There is a pool and it is beautiful in the summer.

thanks so quite and peaceful. hamburgers really make my hungry. BIG T SO CUTE. TANKS FOR SHARING

You have to buy a Blackstone squirt bottles for water and oil .

You are where i am at in this video. We are staying at Club Wyndham in Fairfield Glade.

love it ! I go through that area a lot. I like how Karen was able to use the door of the microwave for a mirror . LoL you guys are great . keep up the great content .

Great adventure, the camping park was amazing

I heard Mike say most things at buckies are pretty good. Years ago my father when seeing me coming down the road would ask how I was doing, to that I would say pretty good. Then I would ask him how he was doing? He would always say I'm good but not much pretty.

Beautiful mountains. I can't wait to try Buckees in Warner Robins Ga. Nears one to me but 58 miles from my house

My dear father was in the CCC....!

We just had sandwiches from Buc cees for dinner tonight in st Augustine. Our first experience and it is interesting. Have fun.

We have a Buc-Cee’s about 7 miles from my work in Berea Ky and I’m hooked big time on the brisket 😋

Yal get some Potato Slayer for your spuds. It taste amazing

We don't have Buc-ee's around here but it reminds me of Walmart with food courts your breakfast look very good take care Merry Christmas

I would lose my mind in that store

We love your new van camping adventures....Crossville seems like a nice quiet place. Thanks for sharing your adventures 😊 Karen, quick question...love your beautiful purple jacket...may I ask where you purchased that at? Thanks again Sean and Tonya from Florida...ps.we are heading to Gatlinburg first week of February so that jacket would be perfect ☺️😁

Merry Christmas

Have fun u u have a beautiful smile Karen

I saw the title and said cool we stayed there. Wrong we stayed at Cumberland Falls KY. Our go to breakfast is the brisket and egg tacos. Not sure if they sell them there but we have them here in TX.

Just wondering if you can make a video on the operating cost for your camper van. Fuel, insurance, campsite ect. Vs a hotel.

You folks are so natural and honest making these videos. Keep up the good work. See you're using a small propane bottle. Do you ever use the quick connect propane off the van's larger tank for the Blackstone ? Or is it just easier to use a small bottle ?

Can’t camp anymore but I can still go to Bucees. Nice looking campgrounds and smash burgers. Miss Karen is going to turn into a cinnamon bun. HaHa.😂

I live in crossville tn im 4 miles from cumberland mountain state park.

You guy's crack me up on the food ratings 🤣 I have to say I am a diet coke allochic and they are always a 10 anytime of day!
