You are very welcome. We had heard that it was really good, so we decided to try it for ourselves. We got up really early and drove up there for breakfast, since we were coming to Cherokee and Bryson City anyway. We really enjoyed it.

Sounds like a need to make an early morning ride from Pigeon Forge down to Cherokee for good food! Breakfast and lunch! Your motel experience reminds me of a trip my now ex-wife and I took many years ago to the Fiesta Motor Inn in Willow Grove, PA. We were going to a ham radio convention. The drive during sleet was interesting, to put it mildly! The pleasant memory was chatting on-air with a ham who had a great phonetic for his callsign, N2HBP. Or, as he put it, "Nearer 2 Him By Prayer". His occupation? Catholic Priest! The bad part was when we got to the hotel. We had missed an armed robbery. In this case, the night clerk shot the robber to death. They hadn't yet cleaned-up the lobby when I walked in. This was in 1988.. Another great video despite what had happened. Derek, do you often make lemonade? Had to ask! God Bless!

Well, I make lemonade quite a bit during the summer months. That must have been quite an experience, to enter the motel lobby, and have to see that. Something you'll definitely never forget.

That is terrible news about the owner of the motel being killed. I liked the light coloring of the panel in the restaurant, it made it very bright and clean looking. The food looked good and the prices seemed good,especially with what prices are today.

Yes, I agree. The prices seemed pretty reasonable, compared to what a lot of the places in the Smokies are.

My husband and I recently found your KZfaq videos. First let me say that we truly enjoy them. We have a question tho. We are guessing you are either ex military or a preacher. Are we correct on either point? Keep making these awesome enjoyable videos! Merry Christmas and God bless you and your wife. 🕶🎀

Merry Christmas to you, as well. I think you asked this question, maybe on another video, a week or 2 ago. I replied, so you might want to check junk folders for the reply. Yes, I am a preacher. Not ex military, but our 2 sons were both in the Army. What gave it away, that I was one of those 2?

@@NCMemoryMakers I did ask this on another video but I forgot which video. I marked this one so I would know if you answered. Thank you so much for your reply.. As a Christian myself its just something I notice about people. No ugliness or profanity in your videos for one. There's a certain humbleness about you and your wife . I guess my spirit just connected with you and your wife. Have a blessed day. I too was sorry to hear about the owner of the motel. Sad.

And I looked up online what happened, and it seems the motel owner was also a school teacher, as well. Plus, the girl that runs the office here at this motel, was his niece. She said that he was in an altercation with a customer who was being unruly, and he asked the customer to leave. That's when it got violent and turned tragic.

Wow Sounds like one bad thing after another! Im so sorry about the man dying. I didn’t hear about that. I guess they just shut down the hotel?!?!!! Im glad you had a good breakfast. Ive never eaten there and I’ve always wanted to try it. The times are a changin… Im so sorry! Don’t ever listen to me tey to sway you this way again! I feel terrible!
@NCMemoryMakers Жыл бұрын
Why do you feel terrible? You didn't do anything wrong. We actually had a wonderful breakfast there, and we've loved Cherokee for years. The thing about the motel owner getting shot, was just one of those things that tragically happened. You can look up the story about him. His name was Lambert Wilson, and it happened sometime in late October. His niece worked at the other motel that we ended up staying at, and she was telling me that he had asked a customer at the El Camino to leave the property. Not sure what happened, but the customer demanded a refund before he would leave, and one thing led to another, and he was shot. I think he was also a school teacher at one point. But other than the thing with the motel, we had a great time. And even more important than the time we had, is the fact that this man lost his life. That's very sad. Everything I've read about him since finding out, indicates that he was a very selfless and generous person.

Okay- I didn’t know it was lambert Wilson. I just found out he died today and I sent you a comment. Ive not heard anything on the news and can find no details! Gosh- yeah a good guy. I hope they find out who did it! Im not finding anything! Let me know if you hear. He was big on collecting Indian baskets from elders. And has a beautiful gallery, queen gallery, with old Indian baskets etc.

@@cumberlandquiltchic1 So you knew him? That is really sad. Hate that for him, and for his family. My understanding, was that he had asked an unruly guest to leave the motel, and the guest refused to leave unless he got a refund. One thing led to another, and then a tragic ending. I am not sure if the person who did it, is in custody. I would imagine it would be easy enough to find out who was registered there, so I'm guessing he was arrested and charged.

I didn’t personally know him. Id spoken with him about cherokee old river cane baskets back in the fall. Early fall, I guess. So, when I saw this today, I was shocked! So, I can’t seem to find anything about anyone being arrested or anything online. I’ll have to ask some friends in bryson city tomorrow who live on the reservation and might have heard something.
