I'm from big stone gap and used to run a Pepsi truck route in Harlan county and Hensley's was a stop! The owner, Mae is such a sweetheart. Always sent me on my way with a free sandwich and drink when I delivered there. I miss it
I spent every summer of my life in Wallis,Saylor Family. Coal miners.My family blood is old in them hills. I am now 70 and being there was the best time of my life
My mother grew up in that area and is buried near by. I still have a lot of family in that area and I do believe family owns or did own that store at one point. I visit some times (not as much as I’d like to) and always stop in to get a chili dog. You’re in good company down in that hollar. One of my most favorite places to visit. You HAVE to go to Santa lane and meet mountain Santa. My cousin mike started out in 1975 as Santa and delivered toys all over Harlan. He continued that tradition up until just a few years ago when he passed. Now his son Jordan carry’s the torch as mountain Santa. There’s a huge following being lead by a police escort as Santa delivers toys, food, clothing etc to the children in the area. Santa has a workshop down there on Santa Lane. Love my family!
Thanks for sharing that, I've heard a lot about him over the years, truly a man who possessed the true Christmas spirit!
Mae is the best person! She works for everything and her family
crazy this popped up i just learned my ancestor was jesse brock, a rev war soldier who was paid in land and settled into wallens creek. he’s my 7th grandpa. my own grandpa was from Harlan, KY and relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio!
Thanks for the video
Excellent Video went by where my Dad and his Siblings grew Up! Then you have the Haywoods Family Oscar Haywood had his Trucking Company up in Wallins! Had the Kirkland Family also! Trains use to Go up and down Wallins into the Twila Coal Mines!!
Thanks!
Hey Cousin!!! I spent my summers and most holidays at Minnie Kirklin’s house in Kentennia, which is just down from little Mexico and South Wallins
@@dankirkland2440 My Best Times of my Childhood was also the Summers Visiting Our Grandparents and My Grandma Carter up in Wallins Creek!!
I've been there years ago and still looks exactly the same! My daughter was about 8 at the time and her eyes lit up seeing all of that candy.. and yeah I believe we bought about $20 dollars in candy alone 🎉
My fathers family is from Harlan , Dixon , still have family there.
MY husbands mother is from Wallins! Ann Boone ...... her daddy was Doctor Lon H. Boone who had a practice there!
My home Wallins!!
Thank you for this video. My Grandparents lived there from the 1930's until the 1980's. The warmest memories that I have from my childhood are visiting them every summer. I would live there now if I could. God bless you both.
Hearing from folks like you means so much to us we really appreciate that you took the time to share this with us thanks and God bless!
I heard Mrs Coyote talking about how she was raised in the mountains, and it got me to thinking (Which is something my daddy told me to never do !) We would love to hear the story about how the 2 of you met. Yall seem like the absolute perfect couple, which is mostly a rare thing anymore. I bet you have a fun story to tell about how you first got together.
Thanks so much for the very kind words! If there's anything perfect in our relationship it's my wife's tolerance for my craziness.
We met at my wife's place of business, I was a regular customer there and I had my eye on her for a couple of months but I could not get her to even look at me and I tried all my best tricks and my heart was breaking because I fell in love with her the first time I laid eyes on her but when I was about to give up she finally noticed me. Right after that she told me she had just had a very, very bad relationship and she was afraid to get into another one but she had noticed me that first day also.
Well.....you Coyotes "Ignited" my appetite this morning. I really enjoyed today's adventure. Thanks for another top shelf video.
Thanks Terry, we appreciate it!
I see grippos!! 🤤🤤🤤 Hensley's is good...
My daughter lived and went to that school when she lived their
Love this store and mae
Thank you
Grew up spending my summers in Wallins Creek and I miss it so much. Can’t wait to move there soon.
Thank you for driving through Wallins and shooting the video. I could see where my grandparents lived back in the 70's and where my cousin Mike (Santa Clause) Howard lived. Sweet memories.
Thanks for doing this one especially. Wallins Creek is special to me and holds a place in my heart.
We live in ga my husband is from Harlan
My hometown
Thank yall for these videos. I grew up in that area and i sure enjoy what yall do... About the canning lids young lady,
theres none around this area either (north alabama south tennessee) like you I had to buy some jars just to can some
tomatoes... When they get ready you got to run with it.............
Thanks!
My grandpa lived in Wallins Creek Kentucky. His home wasn't far from the veterans memorial when y'all came in on 119.
Hensley's has the best food around!
It's mighty good eating!
we were doing a Bible School just down the street at Freedom Worship Center the very same week
My dad was raised in wallins, my mom still lives there, Shadie and Helen Caldwell. My parents home is the ol’Park Howard estate, also, the long grey building you passed heading towards the end of the road, is the Mountain Santa’s workshop, started by the late Mike Howard and still going by his son and many elves that distributes toys and gifts for thousands of mountain children every Christmas. The last left turn before the end of the road, takes you to the Henry Ford stone house, built by Ford. You are correct about Miss Mae, she’s a sweetheart, when my daddy was extremely ill with cancer, he had to have something from Mae’s place. My sons have to go to maes every time we are back home visiting. Thank y’all for the videos, makes being homesick a bit more bare able.
Thanks for watching Shannon!
we will be there last week of July to help with Bible School at Freedom Outreach Church down there!!
Thank you for posting this video, my family is from Wallins Creek and I have never got to visit there.
Mercedes Durham Daniel Chadwick lived and died in Wallins. Her Mother's mother Sarah Ella Daniel was Elizabeth "Bettie Helton. I don't know if you can manage anymore Cherokee rep than that.
Love watching you guys
Thanks Gloria, we appreciate that!
Donna Joe's Market was in Baxter. Tiny Joe's and Ropers Market.
We all appreciate your hard sacrifice of eating that delicious double burger just for us. LOL... Thanks for another great video.
You know Kevin, I've trained since I was a young child to eat like that and now I think I have finally achieved Olympic level eating!
🤣😆🤣 Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
This is Mary & Roy Martin- Mae Hensley is my Sister. She has a Wonderful Store in Wallins and you’ll not find a Nicer Person Anywhere. Great Video- Love ya Sis(MAE)
Your sister made us feel so at home in that little store it made us feel like we've been eating there our whole lives! We can't recommend enough that folks stop in there and try her cooking, it's really good!
yep, they mined and logged up that road I think..
Fantastic. Video. I. Will. Share. It. .

Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
WOW A Another Great Spot!!!!
Thanks Guss!
Loved seeing video of Wallins Creek Ky. In town my Grandfather had a shoe shop right next to Mrs Hatmaker's Store and across the street was the post office.
I was born there. Thank You for going there.
Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
They have good food
My girlfriends grandma lived there for many years. I hung out at her house some.
They have some good bologna
Glad you got to visit Hensleys Grocery, I use to work there. Great food and great people.
Thanks!
Love watching your drives to Eastern Kentucky towns. I never lived there but have always had a fascination for the mountains and the people. I just watched a vlog by VW Family Farms and the wife, Andrea was showing some canning lids she bought on line that are reusable. The company is called Harvest Guard . Andrea also demonstrated canning with them both pressure canning and water bath. She was not advertising them just passing on information to other canners. I don't know the cost of them, but they can be used many times so they might be worth it to you.
Thanks so much for the information we will check it out.
Great video Coyote's! Wallins creek is a beautiful little community, my father did a road job up there back in the 80's, I think they fixed a slide up there on the main road and redid part of the road. I rode up there with him and he showed me around, haven't been back through there in quite awhile. Great to see it again! That food looks awesome! Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Mitch, we appreciate you!
Thanks for the beautiful ride in Kentucky.. Good looking yummy food.. Be safe.. Be looking for more videos!! Be safe!
Thanks!
Hey enjoyed your video in wallins and Maes store. I try to watch all your videos
Thanks, we appreciate that! God bless you.
My family came from there McGregor gambrels sizemores
Thank you for this lovely video showing the peacefulness and tranquility of Kentucky. Hope to move back there and get away from the city life. Love you all!
You're welcome Carolyn, and thanks for watching we appreciate it!
When you came across the bridge in fall-spring if you look up on the side of the hill is where my grandparents home sits. Cousins live in it now. Take a quick left to go to the road up the hill. This video brings back so many memories. My grandparents funerals were at the First Baptist Church you passed. I have good memories of Wallins Creek as it used to be called! Thank you all for this video!
Hey enjoy your CZcams channel I was just wondering if y'all was wanted by the police because you never show your face LOL I'm from Cumberland keep up the good work
Thanks! We're not wanted by the police but we are in the witness protection program! LOL🤣😆🤣 We're actually in some of our videos, you just have to watch real close.
The little mom and pop places are the most interesting because each one is slightly different...the food is better because it's not mystery meat or anything.
Lotta small town hardware stores have canning supplies. I used to pick up canning stuff for my grandmother, and hardware/farm supply stores almost always had them.
Thanks Scott!
My uncle and aunt-in-law actually own May's. I never really went there much when I lived in Wallins. Stuff there costs a pretty penny.
I'm pretty sure I am related to May! I seem to be related to all the Hensley's in the area. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
I’m a wallins Hensley! Lol
Hi There, my family was born and raised in Harlan. Thanks for sharing everything from our hometown. My sisters are coming for a visit in September, do you have any suggestions for a place to stay in harlan. She was looking for air b&b maybe.

Best chillidogs in town

Remember Russell's Grocery and the Loyall Market. The Corner Store and Mike's Drive In.
Old man Russell was a huge Kentucky wildcat fan. Seems like every time I seen him he had a cigar in his mouth.
@@IgnitedCoyote my parents had a charge account at Russell’s. I got candy bars there all the time. M&M’s were my favorite. I sneaked up there sometimes. Once I charged too much and got in trouble big time. The house I was raised in is vacant now. Rio Vista. 4th Street 6th house on the left. Memories. Think of it always.
I watch the new video I love it so I wanted to let you know that I love it I have left 2 massage.s and they both were taken down and I don't know why can you please find out something for me God bless
This one worked, so so maybe you can try some other ones like you did this one and maybe that'll work. We're so sorry for the trouble you're having Willie, we appreciate you so much you're such a big part of this channel, don't give up we're going to keep on trying to figure out what's causing it.
Diners, dives and coyotes
I like that! Now when are you going to open your own place? You're cooking talents should be shared with the world!
My kin
Maybe you all can have a raffle drawing that we all pay to enter and the winner gets to go out to eat with Mr and Mrs Coyote. I would enter especially if catfish is on the menu!!
That's a great idea, thanks!
I like the channel but how come you don’t show your face ok Take Care 👍🙏🏻
My wife is in a few of our newer videos and she's on thumbnails.
