After roaming for 65 years and every State - save Alaska and North Dakota - I'm happy to call East Tennessee home.
I travel all over but I love coming home to bluff city I love all my friends and family that live here thanks for showing folks about our lil town 37618 all day everyday
TY I LIVED THERE MANY YEARS AGO THEY WERE THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE WALKED THAT BRIDGE MANY TIMES A WEEK MS PRATT IS A LEGAND AND HAD A HEART OF GOLD SHE USE TO LET U GET FOOD AND PAY WEEKLY AND IT WAS 25 CENTS FOR A HALF POUND OF BALONEY 25 CENTS FOR A SODA POP
I just came through there a couple weeks ago and thought to myself "I wish Real Appalachia would do a video on this town" and here it is, you guys are awesome.
My neck of the woods. Went to elementary and middle school. Grew up there . many stories I could tell you
I’m so glad I got to see this. I have just learned that my Pawpaw was born there in 1911 and raised there with all his brothers and sisters and other family members. I love the quite little town. It’s beautiful!
I lived in bluff city tennasee all my life is so beautiful you want a bunch of nature and chill people come to bluff city also when watching this I recognize a lot of the places and so much stuff
Be safe out there. Bless your heart. You blew through that stop sign.
My Great Grand Dad was the First Vetenarian in the Tri Cities between Knoxville and Roanoke Virginia and He had it on 11 E in Bluff City and I am related to the people of Thomas Hardware.
Also ANYTIME you squeeze in some John Anderson, you know this is a good video... LMAO

I ride into the alley so sweet, to on the mountain so steep. Ole Virginny so deep, deep in my heart like mama love when I sleep.
My goodness, gracious! You have visited one of my very favorite places in Tennessee. How exciting! I absolutely loved the music! Bluff City is such a historic part of TN. Thank you so very much Shane and Melody!
Bluff city Born and raised.
The school started off as Bluff City High School and then became Bluff City Middle School in the late 60's. That's where I went to school in the mid 80's. If you saw the "Bouton House," it was built in the early 1800's by the oldest son of my first ancestor to move to this area from Lancaster, PA. Love BC.
I grew up in Bristol just about a ½ hour drove from Bluff City. There is a bike shop there I believe my parents purchased my sister and I our first real mountain bikes. Actually where we lived was a quiet little neighborhood off the Blountville Hwy. Best childhood a kid could ask for in the 1980s-1990s. Unfortunately we moved away because my dad worked for (Intermountain Telecom at first, which eventually became Sprint) and his office got downsized and relocated during the 90s rise of digital tech. He used to write computer programs, but his job now could probably be performed by today's computers. Anyway, almost 30 years on, I still feel homesick for the mountains and it is my dream to retire somewhere in the Blue Ridge Mountains or Pisgah NF. Thank you for going to these beautiful towns.
My great grandfather that lost his money in the bank during the depression was John Shipley. Lost of people however lost their money during the depression.
I grew up in Bluff City and lived there from 1999 to 2006. The house I lived in is no longer there, it burned down later, but it was a white two story with a staircase that seemed huge to a little kid. You can see the back and side of the school at
