Donnie Laws is a national treasure ❤😊

There is something magical about snow when it’s falling softly at night. A cup of cocoa and nice fire keeping ya toasty!

I love winter and snow now that I’ve been retired and don’t have to drive in it. There’s nothing prettier than clean, glistening snow cover nature. Love this video❄️❄️❄️

I'm a truck driver, so the less snow I see the better. But it is pretty at the same time. I got caught in thunder snow once. It snowed 10 inches in 30 minutes very wet and heavy. I hope you have a Happy New Year and God bless you. I enjoy your videos.

Oh my goodness, What a wonderful lightening snow capture! I have seen lightening snow once it was amazing! I’ve been fortunate to experience Thunder snow a few times, but even with thunder snow you don’t always see lightning. And my goodness that was so many bolts arcing together, truly spectacular❣️Thank you Mr. Laws

Thanks Donnie! I certainly remember the outhouse trips in the snow! Stay well !!!

Morning Mr Donnie. Another awesome video my friend. I like it but got so now it doesn't matter to me anymore. You can sure see where the wildlife been walking about, they sure must be tough to lay out in it and all. Appreciate you again my friend

I think you might get some snow this weekend, maybe a lot! I hope you and your wife are feeling better. My husband and I have been holding y’all up in prayer. Thank you for the beautiful video of the snow. God bless.

I can't remember the last time we had snow on the isle of wight, UK. must be over ten years ago now, we have children who have never seen snow at middle school now . I would love to see snow like that again, it's beautiful and very missed when you can't get any.

Donnie, as always, Thank you for sharing your mountains-We are in Central FL so what youve shown here is all the snow we're going to get. Moving to mountains in near future, hoping for small community & slower living. You provide an amazing array of all things Appalachian and are a great steward of the area, from the history and lifestyle of the people there, to showcasing all the aspects of environment there. You are a wonderful teacher and beneficial to so many by simply caring to share and putting in the effort you do to bring us into your world for a few minutes. You and others blessed beyond measure to have been brought up in the times you were, in area and culture you were. I know you count yourself fortunate. Enjoy your day

My husband and I lived 7 years in Alaska, Donnie, and I remember the sheer beauty of freshly fallen snow. Everything looked like it was covered with frosting! We never get snow here in south Georgia, but I do remember. God bless you, my friend, stay warm and dry!🙏❤️

Wow, awesome, nothing but 4 in of rain here on the Va coast. Have a great weekend Donnie!

Beautiful Donnie!

Thank you for this, brother Donnie! My favorite way to look at snow is in pictures and video. 😉 Being retired means I don't have to fight that stuff anymore, bless Abba! I remember a snow storm in the late 1970's when I couldn't take the chains off my old 1966 Rambler for a week! I managed a grocery store back then, and I had to pick up my employees and take them back home to keep the store open and running. So glad I don't have to worry about such as that anymore! May G-d bless you and yours with a great week, brother! Please pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Thank you Donnie for these trips down memory lane. I lived in Middlesborough until I was nine years old. Then we moved to north Georgia then over to South Carolina. I joined the US Air Force to "see the world" and wound up in Cheyenne, WY; but, I made the best of it. I do have a pragmatic outlook on life. I wouldn't exchange my memories for anything. Still, I remember my life living in Kentucky. Most of my relatives moved to Detroit to work in the car factories; but, my mother was widowed in her mid-twenties and she chose to move us to Georgia.

Happy new year MR Donnie hope you stay safe and warm in those beautiful mountains of yours it’s so easy for those of us who don’t experience snow and mountains like you do to be lulled into a false sense of oh how wonderful without realising the deadly toll nature can give along with the beauty😊thank you for showing us the area around your home

Thank you for this video. We don't get much snow anymore in New England, but when we do everyone gets excited, even though they complain about it. The trees especially are gorgeous, like white lace. Please keep creating these calming and meditative videos!

Thank you Mr. Donnie! So very beautiful! I was feeling a bit jealous of the 1st snow falling at my daughter’s this morning, so thanks for the lovely snow scenes. The beautiful hills & trees covered in snow sure soothe my soul.

Mornin’ everyone!!! God bless you and yours Mr. Donnie. It is 21 degrees F.. here this morning. I got coffee and crawled back under the covers. Decided the chickens can stay in for an extra hour or so!!😂

Your strange photo of lightning in a snow storm triggered my memory. Late January or early February of 1963 we had a big snow. It was thundering and lightning as the snow came down. I was about 10 years old and lived in South Harriman, Tennessee. We lived in a big old store building that had giant plate glass windows and it was on a main road. Lightning struck a transformer across from our place and a line fell across a car with a woman and little girl in it. They were ok and the utility company and fire department rescued them. We were scared for them and prayed they would be ok. God answered those prayers. That's just one scary part of beautiful snow. The snow was waist deep on my oldest brother. He was nearly 6 feet tall, and trying to get some wood and coal dug out of the snow the morning after. Ice cycles hanging from porch roof were as big as your wrist and as long as from your wrist to your elbow. We don't see snow like that much here now, in the valley. We are blessed if we see a flurry or two now a days. Thank you for always sharing the beauty of your mountain home. Hope you two are much better now, I will keep you in my prayers.

It is BEAUTIFUL but I think about the little animals . I don't get out in it, it makes my bones hurt . Thank you for taking me along with you . Stay warm my friend . GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Thanks Donnie!! I always liked the peacefulness of the snow. When I was at our farm and we had a big snow storm, I would love to go for a walk, and watch and listen to the snow. It's so peaceful and quiet. Knowing the pot-bellied stove was blazing was comforting, for when I got back! Thanks Donnie....Happy New Year!!

I remember the blizzard of '93 very well but even discounting that it doesn't seem like we get snows anymore like we did back in the 60's. I recall in the Bible reading you wouldn't be able to tell one season from the next. Looking forward to a great year of videos Mr. Donnie.Until next time God Bless

Good morning Donnie, your videos are soothing and relaxing.

Thank you for sharing Mr Donnie I haven't seen snow ❄️ like that since I was a teenager.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍🇺🇸

Winter wonderland THANK YOU for that beautiful footage. The ice I can do without. The lightning snow I have heard of too but never seen😲whoa! You get some amazing captures Mr. Donnie🦌the snowy hikes were always bery special to♡ Thanks for making my Friday♡

I live in upstate New York right now, and we've been needing snow because of the two ski resorts here. Our business pretty much needs the snow to have a successful winter. It's so beautiful Mr Donnie. Thanks for sharing this. Lord bless you my friend, and I'm glad to see you're feeling better.❤

Love hearing your stories I’m 43 from south eastern KY and can relate!! Your remind me so much of my grandfather and my family. I currently live in Greenville SC but KY is my home!!

Probably one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in nature. I just love it there in any weather! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and enjoying your new year my friend! I want to thank you for the, what is years now, of beauty and happiness you have brought me Mr Donnie! This is, by far, my favorite KZfaq channel! I hope there are many more generations of your family that keep the past close to their heart such as you do. Thank you for everything and GOD BLESS 🙏❤️✌️

Thank you Mister Donnie. Every one of your videos takes me back to memories of my younger days.

This was such a nice video! I love seeing the snowy woods. One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to wander around through the woods in our neighborhood and just find a nice stump to sit on and listen to the quiet. I still love to do that when I can. The rest of the video reminded me of the years I had to commute 50 miles one way from our farm here in ND into town where I worked. White outs are common, and I can't count the times I white-knuckled my way into town and back in those conditions. Up here the roads are flat and it's so easy to be blinded by all the white, so you don't see where the road ends on either side. It just all blends together. I'm so glad I live in town now and don't have to do that anymore. We still have plenty of ice and snow to deal with, but I pray for anyone having to drive on the highways in that kind of mess. It is dangerous. Thanks for sharing!

As a first responder, I have to go to work irregardless of the weather. I don't have a 4 wheel drive but my old truck has studded mud and snow tires on the back and cinderblock in the bed for weight. I remember 1993's March storm and the big storm of January 1987. Have a great weekend Donnie.

I remember that storm in '93. I was a teenager and we lived in another area of Sevier County, mountain area behind where Dollywood is by Middle Creek. That storm came in as ice first and then it dumped snow. We could not even get up the windy road to the house that was on top of a holler. My Dad was stuck in Nashville, so my Mom and I took the dogs with us everywhere when we could get out to town. We had to park at the base of the road going up and then down into the hollar, strap everything up to the dogs, and have them drag the items in a sled all the way up to the house. It was a good mile up and down. There was no electricity, so had to depend on the wood fireplace, and Mom almost lost it when we crossed some big tracks in the snow. I remember late at night, the trees would start exploding from the sap freezing, and it echoed, bouncing around the mountains and hollar like cannon balls and explosions. I do not even know how Dad even made it back. Great memories, and thank you for this. God bless.

Thank You Donnie for this video ❤ My momma was stuck in her house in the blizzards of 1993 The Red Cross was called out to assist it was really severe in areas ❤❤❤❤

I was born in '56. Growing up, I remember snow from November to April. Snow on the ground all winter. Got married in '73. That was the year of the fuel shortage, groceries doubled from June to August. We had the blizzards of '76, '78, and '80. I had blizzard babies! Lol, born the next fall! Then I remember the blizzard of '97, too! Ohio weather!! I've really enjoyed this video, thank you for sharing this with us! It's so beautiful!

The Good,The Bad,The Ugly,Of Mother Nature Thanks Donnie ❤

Awesome my brother! That snow is beautiful across the mountains ain't it. That's a wild picture! Never seen lightening during a snow but strange things do happen, especially here in the hills! Thanks for this one Donnie. God bless you my awesome mountain brother

It is definitely breathtaking my happy place. Thank you Donnie sitting here in Florida reminiscing. Can't wait to make it our permanent place. ❤🕊️🙏🏻

Morning Donnie, thanks for sharing this great story.

Mr.Donnie, I just wanted to Say THANK YOU FROM The BOTTOM Of My HEART To The VERY TIP Of My SOUL For Making This Video Of NOTHING BUT BEAUTIFUL PURE WHITE SNOW!!!!!!!! MY HEART WAS FLUTTERING ALL THROUGH THIS VIDEO!!! 🌨️❄️🥶 SNOW IS JUST SSSSOOOOOOOO FAR BEYOND BEAUTIFUL TO BEGIN WITH, But KNOWING That GOD ALMIGHTY MADE THE SNOW WITH HIS VERY OWN BREATH, Makes IT All The More INDESCRIBABLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! GOD BLESS You And Your Family!!! 🙏😇👼

We didn't have a "snow of 1993" here in missouri we had the great floods instead. I really love your videos. I have acreage in se missouri with national forest on 3 sides but can't hardly get down to see it anymore. Nothing more beuatiful than the woods in a snowfall. Wish I'd never moved out of the woods. Biggest regret of my life ! I hate the city but am stuck here now.

Thanks so much for this snow day......all of it, so beautiful. Nothing like the silence and peace of the snow. Nothing like trying to get through it and surviving it. Wonderful adventure.

My Son is a West Coast East Coast driver. I haven't talked to him this morning, but as of yesterday he was sick, but was keeping on keeping on trying to get ahead of the snow. Trucker's after 60 years in this business I just want to say, no load is worth your life. Be safe God keep you safe 💖

Snow on everything is beautiful unless you have to drive in it! My husband used to drive truck and I really prayed when he had to drive in it He really needed Our Heavenly Father's and Jesus's Protection to get home safely!

March 93’. What an amazing blizzard to hit TN. We were stuck in the house for 4 days! The good old wood stove saved us. We used it for heat and mom cooked on it while the power was out.

Your timing is great for this video, Donnie. Starting tonight they are calling for a mix of sleet, snow and freezing rain. I think this is going to start late tonight and go through most of the day tomorrow. Over the next 2 weeks the weather is predicted to be off and on snow, sleet and all of that type of winter weather. But it's January...it's to be expected. I absolutely love snow. I get as excited at the first flakes as I did when I was young. It is so beautiful. I could do without ice of any form, but you have to take the good with the bad.

Donnie, I love your channel. There is nothing in this world better than a beautiful winter snow in the mountains, and a wood stove at home. God bless you. You bring joy to me in a hard time of my life. I truly appreciate you...

Hello my friend, this sure was a beautiful video. I love the winter and the snow. I remember the blizzard of 78, we was out of power for over 2 weeks. The state paid our neighbor to clear the highways with his D6 cat, the snow plows couldn't even move. Then after he got the roads opened up to where the plows could manage them, he pulled the power trucks through the country roads so they could restore the power. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful videos with us. Sending you many blessings for you and your family. 🙏🤗❤️

I always loved snow. We don't get much here, maybe this year😊 I remember as a child my grandmother making snow cream. Thanks Donnie for sharing this video...beautiful and peaceful❤

Thanks for taking us on a magical journey through the snow! I love snow and these pictures were beautiful. Praying we will get to see some this year in South Carolina🙏🏻. The G’ment is messing with our weather so much till nothing is “normal” anymore. Praying you and your wife are feeling better🙏🏻. God Bless!

So beautiful! !993 was so great here. My children and other family members had so much fun playing in that snow and so many stories for them to pass on, even though we were having fun we prayed and checked on others to make sure all was warm Thank you Donnie Laws. Always a blessing to hear your stories. God bless🙏♥☃

I'll never forget 1993, two boys under 2, no power or water... melted snow on a wood laundry stove...11 days we couldn't get out. Fortunately, I'd been to the grocery store! Thanks for sharing the beauty Donnie 👍👍

Thank you from my heart. You brought to a serene wonder world to a southern Californian. It is so refreshing and deliver me out of my troublesome life. God bless to you too Mr. Donnie.

Thank you, Mr. Donnie, I enjoyed this video. I love snow but don't like the cold. Love the area where the animals usually are at. The snow makes magic happen . The whiteness turns the area into a peaceful calming forest. Thank you for your frosty lovely pics. God bless you and your family.

What a wonderful planet Terra we have here. The most unique in all our Sol system. Love her like she loves us! Cause love is the answer! Thanks my brother

Donnie. I finally got my wife to put your video on my TV. It made it so much more enjoyable. I remember those big snows from when I was a kid. When it snowed back then, I would head for the mountains. I also ran a trap line when I was in high school. Lots of memories in your videos. Thanks.

Good morning Mr.Laws when I was in my early teens we had a lightning and thunder snow storm. When it finally stopped snowing we measured the snow at 3 1/2 feet. Mom put on a pot of beans and fried some potatoes with onion and bacon. She kept that potbellied stove going all night , and we stayed warm.

That is a strange picture, but i think it's real. Thank you for this beautiful vision of your winter wonderland, i know it comes with a price. I'm not sure people today are tough enough to handle the way things used to be. I suppose this is why my people eventually moved on down to the valleys, nearer the cities. I do know they wanted to be closer to the schools, for the children to get a good education. Even today, nobody seems to appreciate those miners for the all they did and how it affected their lives. Same thing for truckers, they keep this country supplied with what they need...if they stop, the country stops. Lord bless and keep you, my friend. I'm happy you have that warm fire to sit by while you tell us these wonderful stories....they mean so much to me. I've got to catch up on the recent ones, thank you for all of them. I hope your New Year will be blessed.❤🙏

Hey Mr Laws. My Pup Hans and me are hoping for an early Spring. We Hope it's here in February. We have had enough of winter and the cold. We want a Tropical Heatwave. God Bless You Brother and Thank you for your Show ❣️

Dad used chains on our cars back in the 50’s. Thank you for this beautiful snow video.

That's some beautiful scenery. Being from Central AL it's very seldom I see anything like that. Maybe once every 5 years or so and it's usually gone in a day. Thanks Donnie

Thank u for sharing those beautiful snow scenes Donny. I've never seen anything like the photograph of the lightening in a snow storm.....amazing u captured that image. Happy New Year from England everyone 👍

So clean and fresh-looking. I love snow!! Thanks again. Catching up on your videos this afternoon.

I definitely remember the 93 blizzard Donnie. Me and three other coworkers were stranded in a Compressor Station at work and couldn't get home. I had a 4x4 Chevy truck an snow was clear up to my mirrors. We were there for three days and nights till the Field people for the Gas Company sent out a Bulldozer and Operator to plow us out. As soon as the road was opened our Supervisors delivered is all a good healthy breakfast. And it was so good. But we got along good, had 5 big Cooper Bessemer Compressors and engines pumping gas that kept us plenty warm. God was so good to us those 3 days.

I love your old photos & the beautiful scenery. Seeing your lightning picture, I think you're lucky to be alive! We're hoping to get snow near Hickory, especially since we don't have to drive to work anymore.

Coming down those steep & narrow switchbacks in an ice storm is a precarious situ for sure but one does get used to it a bit. Pays to be mindful though, that snow of 93' was something else.

Ohhh how I love this video. 🥰🥰 . Your videos ALWAYS makes me and my heart smile.❤. The good Lord made a lot of beautiful things, but nothing is prettier than snow ❄️. It makes everything it touches beautiful even an old outhouse. I remember my paw paw talking about thunder snow and I was blessed to witness one. ❤ Snow is so peaceful and calming to my soul. It is a way of the Father telling me to stop and be still. There's nothing better than the feeling of coming in from the cold to a warm fireplace in the house. It's so cozy and relaxing. Thank you for this video, it's definitely one of your best and most beautiful 😍 🥰🥰💕💕

Donnie, that was an awesome video my brother. Yeah back in them days you had to do what you had to do or you didn’t survive. That’s when real men and real women and children knew what it meant. To be thankful. That’s gone out the window these days. God bless.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

The snow laying on the evergreen trees looks stunning. The Lord has given us such beauty to behold. The older I get, the less I enjoy the cold. Thank you for sharing this Mr Donnie ❤ God bless you

Good morning sir 🌞 have a great day 😊👋

Good 🌄 friend, I really enjoyed this. Keep up the good work!

The snow is so beautiful! Great video. Thank you. You and your wife have a wonderfully blessed weekend! 😊

When it does snow, it seems like there's a special kind of hush in the woods. Also, if it's a wet sort of snow, it'll pile up on tree limbs. Walking in the woods, especially under pine boughs, there's always the risk that you'll get snow dumped on your head and down your collar.

Have a Blessed New Year Donnie. You are so right about the comfort and security of a wood stove.

Oh it really is just heavenly!!😍❄️💙☃️ It's my favorite time of year. We got snow today and i just relishesd in God's beautiful creation. I do pray for people's safety who have to drive in it.🙏🏼 God bless and Happy New Year!🎉

Good morning Friend 😊 So pretty!! I'm waiting on some of that too.

I hope you doing good and I love your video doonie

Oh I love your voice. I’m here in WNC born and raised. We don’t get snow like we used to. I survived blizzard of 93. Just love the snow!😊 ❄️

We love that photo of the lightning snow... very odd and rare. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Thank you so much for the beautiful images and the reminder of a good ole wood stove. I appreciate you sharing and helping us to reminisce. ❤

They ain't a more beautiful sight than a big snow in these mountains especially in a big hemlock pine patch.i remember when we would get a little skip of snow my grandpa would say let's go track up a rabbit.but seems like the older I get the more a like warm weather.thanks Donnie for all the videos u do.

Donnie when I watch your videos it just opens up a can of memories as a young lad running through the hills of Kentucky in the snow with a home made bow and arrow following small tracks. We where hunters, well we though so. Thank you sir for the memories . God bless be safe stay well. until next time.

I was born and raised in Michigan. I lived near the Detroit River and could see over into Canada with binoculars. The snow was nice as a child. I moved to North Carolina to marry the love of my life years ago. I can't take cold weather anymore. I love the beauty of the snow, but I was used to snow plows clearing all the roads. Rural roads are the last ones to be cleared where I live. Thank you for sharing these great videos. Praying and Blessed! 🤗🙏💕

God bless You and Your Family in 2024. Snow Video is beautiful and I am thankful for the Video. You are right Mr. Laws, there is nothing as warming as a good Wood Stove, Bless You Sir. 😃

Everything looks so beautiful when it snows.

I love to see the snow falling. I lived in Wasatch mts. in Utah - Heber Valley. You could go up a road past a reservoir and road is closed - and you see 15 / 20 ft of snow - and they just stop plowing there for the winter. Years ago I heated my home with wood. For nearly 35 years. Cut it. Split it. Stacked it. And I enjoyed it and I miss it big time. Nothing like wood heat. Beautiful pictures and loved the story of snow and how it affects our lives. God Bless.

I remember as a kid in NY how quiet, peaceful and still the landscape was

So peaceful and beautiful ❤️ Thanks for sharing all this beauty

Thank you and thank you Jesus. I miss those times.

Wonderful photo at the end. You captured lightning during a snow storm. Amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Appalachian mountains are so beautiful ❤️

Thanks Donnie! Appreciate your country pictures and stories so much!! Takes me back to when I was a kid.

Thank you. That was a nice fire. Snow is pretty but bothersome to work around. You are right. Enjoyed the sightseeing adventure ❤😊

Beautiful Donnie Laws, great story teller you are my friend thank you for your videography

This brings me much peace and memories of better days. Thank you so much.

Lightening in the snow o: That's a new one for me. Snow is real pretty just too cold for me. I've been many many times especially as a child. Hub still ends up in it from time to time hunting. Thanks for sharing and keep warm!!

Great show keep up the amazing work be safe my friends God bless all

Beautiful snow, it causes us to stop and reflect. Don’t want to drive in it but I love watching it come down. It’s my dog’s favorite time of the year and we love to play in it together. You sound much better and hoping you and your wife are in good health now.

Great video Donnie…I pray you and your wife are feeling better 🙏🏻❤️ I agree the weather will be what the Good Lord wants it to be 🙏🏻❤️ Thank you for all the hard work you do to bring us these wonderful videos….God Bless You…..Lord willing I will see you next time 👍

I always have a hard time to sleep but listening to your voice and stories put me to sleep right away thank you Donnie
