    In 1981 my parents participated in a craft show at a small school in Waynesville. I was a teenager at that time and always carried my banjo and played when we went to a craft show. Waynesville was the only place that I have gone to where there were a lot of teenage musicians. I really enjoyed being able to play with other young banjo players even younger than myself. I will always remember Waynesville and wonder if the young people there now play bluegrass music like they did in 1981. Thanks for posting this video.

    I stayed 4 nights in Waynesville last week for my fall vacay. Had an amazing view of the mountains from the Econo Lodge. Also went to Lake Junaluska. So pretty in fall.

    my family has been going up to Waynesville for 30+ years, we have seen the downtown shift and change. mostly the restraints like the old bakery that's now a pizza place or the Irish pub. but in the past few years life has started really come back to the downtown area. still one of the best places to go after going to water rock knob on the blue ridge. you can even drop by barbers orchard and pick your self up some of there apple cyder donuts that my wife loves. the area is just full of life and places to go. yes I miss the old places and the way it was, but I'm happy i can now bring my kids and they will get to enjoy Waynesville and Maggie valley like I did.

      If you moved from somewhere else, recently, im sure it’s wonderful. I was just saying how busy it is and everything gone up so much. It’s just a fact. It’s better here for many people moving here, for sure! I can’t imagine being in Florida or California or the places folks move here form. Don’t blame them. Just has become very unaffordable for me.

    I always wondered how the Buttered Biscuit was. It looks good. I'll have to check it out next time. We always go to The Waynesville Farmers market. I talked coffee guy (where you bought the Italian Soda) about his trailer the last time I was there. I really like how he made it. I will have to try that soda next time. I will add that farm to my list next time I go. The apple orchard looks nice too. Is it off the road that takes you to Bryson City? Maybe Hwy 74? We love the Sweet Onion too. I actually did a blog post back in 2016 on the 7 Must-Try Restaurants in Waynesville, NC, and Sweet Onion is on there.

      @Blueridgemountainlife  Před 8 měsíci

      Well, we live in Waynesville, so we're a bit partial, but it's definitely our favorite of all the options in the area. Some of the best trout fishing in Western NC is located about 15 minutes from Waynesville. Our sons are out catching large brook and rainbow trout often. Appreciate you watching and good luck on the move.
