🎥 IN THIS EPISODE → R.M. Brooks General Store is One of the last original country stores in operation. It's located in Rugby Tennessee. Brooks opened the store in 1917! We interviewed Tiffany the owner to get all the details and history. Took our Winnebago Travato to camp in next door to the general store. We also enjoyed a good country breakfast with a pot belly stove burning. Did you enjoy this video? If so, please ❤️SUBSCRIBE to our Channel: ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ Click "Show More"

I absolutely loved this vlog. Brooks was such a quaint old country store. I’m so glad you interviewed Miss Tiffany, the owner. She is a wonderful lady. You could tell how much she loves this little town & the people in it. It was obvious how much her faith meant to her & guided her everyday. Thank you so much for allowing us to join you today. ♥️♥️

Oh my gosh, what a most wonderful video. Your presentation was over the top, the music, the scenery, Miss Tiffany. I am sitting here on a Saturday afternoon with tears rolling down my cheeks. It just reminded me of my hometown, Clover, VA. That store looked like the few we had back home. I can sit here and picture them in my mind. So thankful that at 74 I can still feel love in my heart for the old ways. Again, great video.

Hello new friends, Pastor Fred here in Rockwood TN. I found your channel today with the video of the R M Brooks store in Rugby, beautiful place. Your video inspired me to plan a motorcycle ride with the church there in April 2023. I have been to Rugby many times, but never to the store, and am looking forward to it. When you were at Cumberland Mountain State Park, you were not far from Ozone Falls. Don't know if you've ever been there, but that is a nice place to visit as well, but no campsites at those falls. Fall Creek Falls is nice, and a beautiful big campground with all the amenities as well, just in case you did not know... Subscribed and following... Have a blessed day..

Hi Pastor Fred! Thanks so much for leaving us a comment. We did think about driving by Ozone Falls but didn't make it this trip.
