Thank you đ
Great video yâall!!
Thank you for sharing
This was amazing, looked like lots of fun and a wonderful trip đ
Wow! Jammed pack with action! TY
Welcome to Georgia! Our home state. We walked up Stone Mountain last year. Hope you all get to visit more of Georgia.
Glad y'all made it to Georgia. When I was little, I remember walking up Stone Mountain all the time. There wasn't a tram or anything. They finally got the train. And it was a ride for sure. The ladies wore antebellum dresses with all the crinolines and bandits would jump on the trains with play guns. I remember it scaring me. Mama said it's just play acting. Y'all need to come around the July4th. Excellent show.
Thank đŠ you
WowâŠ.that was absolutely amazingâŠthank you Will and Dawn again for showing me thereâs so much more out there, Iâve learned a lot watching yâall đđ
Me too, travel is good way to learn and enjoy.
Thanks For Sharing. It brought back a lot of my childhood memories. Loved It
I grew up about 5 miles from the park. They put on a pretty good Christmas light display.
That was great. I never heard of this place. So glad you shared it.
loved this video thanks for taking us along
my grandmother took me to Stone Mountain when I was a teenager, they have a lot more stuff to do now
I liked stone mountain
Wow! How cool is this place. Adding to my bucket list! Thanks will & dawn for sharing all these wonderful adventures with us â€â€
Will and Dawn, really enjoyed your vlog! Thank you for taking me along with you to places I'll never get to see for myself! Absolutely beautiful and stunning scenery and loved the carving on the mountain! Loved the lights and light show at the end!
I went there in June but only to see the laser show. I'm from NJ and was visiting. I wish I had known how amazing this place was... with the exception of the laser show, everything was already closed when we showed up!
Another great video! Enjoyed it Will and Dawn. We were at Stone Mountain but they didn't have all that stuff to do when we were there. They didn't have that village and the pumpkins nor did we ride the train. We only went on the tram ride to the top. The view is beautiful up there. It is always greatvto see you 2 and Chris and Mindy all together. Love your adventures! Thanks for sharing them with us.
Looks like a great time! Thanks guys!
Liked the video. The pumpkin displays were beautiful! The show at the end is very different never saw anything like that.

Very entertaining video of stone mountain and an enjoyable camping with Chris and Mindy.
That mountain is massive .I didn't know it was there
I live twenty minutes from Stone Mountain! You should hike to the top at Sunset. Itâs beautiful!
We definitely will need to add this to our list of places to go near us. Yâall looked like yâall had so much fun. I live when yâall do things with Chris and Mindy. Thanks for sharing. God bless.
Miller, I am the same. I will add this to my list and visit there in future.

Great video. You all are great tour guides. We need to see Chris rolling down the hill next time. Lol
Everything about that ride in the gondola and then no fencing on that high rock scared the crap out if me. đ„Ž I never trust my life to cable's. You guys are brave! đ I didn't realize all of the fun things to do at Stone z t. Pretty awesome.
Very cool pumpkin tree

Very nice picture of you all

My home state!! Love Stone Mountain at Christmas..đ€¶đ đ
I was raised here and still live in the nearby town today we LOVE taking our kids to the festivals at the mountain
They have many festivals ?
@@asianprince8718 Yeah they have the Yellow Daisy Festival, Pumpkin Festival, Native American Pow wow and Festival, Stone Mountain Christmas, and Summer at the Rock. :)
@@asianprince8718 oh and their own version of the Highland Games
Who knew you could do so much with a pumpkin??? Really enjoyed it Disel Dawn brilliant đđđđâ€ïž
I don't know what you mean by pumpkin.
I believe pumpkin is not just for Halloween though.
Love seeing this. I live not too far from stone mountain. Be glad you took the tram.. the hike is not fun
Thanks guys. I REALLY ENJOYED THE TRIP!! THE CAMPING LOOKED FUN AND THE WHOLE PARK WAS BEAUTIFUL!!
2022 a great year
I love Stone Mountain. I went there many years ago on the 4th of July⊠the light show and the fireworks were amazing.
I guess it's a perfect place for holidays....
How long was the fireworks ?
How many minutes ?
Thanks, Will and Dawn, for a great video. Is that show on all of October? I'm looking to go camping there in October of next year. Let me know if you know when the shows begins.
A NICE DOUBLE DATE !
There used to be a monastery down there, towards the east end of the rock, Iâm thinking maybe 1960 I was there , my Dad was going to Emory University,, they werenât but about halfway done with the carvings then.
Fun Times!!!!
U âbest removed itâ smart young manđ, hi Dawnđ
đ
I went there about 9yrs ago and had a blast. Then went there this summer and about a third of the stuff was closed, restaurants were out of basics, bathrooms a mess etc...
Come to find out, the state owns the park, yet its operated by a 3rd party company who was backing out of their contract. They blamed it on the "tension" the culture caused in society and the pandemic caused a drop in attendance.
Hopefully the new operators bring the park back to it's former glory.
Holy Crap! You guys were in my neck of the woods!!! I live 5 min from there. I'm a child that grew up under the Shadow of the Mountain. Had I known you 4 were there, I would have totally given you guys a full lunch or dinner tab at the Commons Restaurant! I'm Glad you guys had fun. Come back for the Yellow Daisy Festival or the Highland games next year please!! You'll Love it.
Speaking of Yellow Daisy Festival, is that the biggest event in the place? It's been more than 50 years ?
This is awesome. Better than dollywood I think.
I lived in Stone Mountain until 1979. I went to Stone Mountain Elementary school. On Halloween day we used to be able to dress up and after school all the students would walk to the old part of Stone Mountain down Main St. for a Halloween carnival. It was always a lot of fun. Stone Mountain has changed a lot over the years. We used to climb Stone Mountain every year. I couldn't climb it anymore these days...lol!! I'd have to ride the sky lift instead these days. My family and I talked about going to the lazy show for Halloween, but we didn't. I wish we had of now. I have a lot of childhood memories from living there. I'm glad you guys shared this with us. I hope you all had a good time. đ
Is the place very crowded during holidays now and before?
Thank you so much for sharing your memories with us
@@yankeeinthesouth, thank you for letting me share them with you. I could go on and on about my memories there as a little girl. My dad passed away when I was only 10 years old. He is buried there. I went to visit his grave about 3 weeks ago and boy it has changed so a lot out there compared to what it used to be like. Not the safest place to be nowdays, but being inside the park is still fun. Thank you guys for taking us along on your trip. đâ€
@@asianprince8718 , it was crowed some back then too, but not as crowded as it is today. It wasn't as dangerous as it is now. Like I said, it's probably pretty safe inside the park though. My husband and his family was from there too. I didn't meet my husband in Stone Mountain, but when we found out we were both from Stone Mountain we figured out we had a lot in common. Even his family is buried in the same cemetery as my family is buried. It's too bad things have gotten so out of control out there though. Anywhere in and around the metro Atlanta areas are dangerous nowadays. That sad too, because we used to go to Atlanta and watch the lightning of the Christmas tree every year when I was growing up. We'd go to ball games or concerts at the Omni, but it's just not safe anymore. Can't go shopping out in those areas anymore either. Every year at Christmas time they would and still do have a Christms tree lite up on top of Stone Mountain.That was always fun to see as well.
@@bonniebrown6960
Thanks for sharing. I'm interested in ball game too, sports fun.
What ball game do you watch when in Atlanta ?
Thanks for the video đž will and Dawn and Chris and Mindy
đđ€đ
I climbed the back side of Stone Mountain a lot of years ago!
Wow!
I feel the same, yeehaw.
This place is fun
Great vid! Yâall need some concealer.
Lol. Dawn would make it swing to much đ
Thanks for sharing this. Looks like you had a great time.
I'm still not sure what Stone Mountain is but the light show was cool.
Very nice pin will
Spending a week at stone mt camp ground, our loop (R) is not the best sites to be sure. Very uneven, and close. They may be full hookup but that the only plus!
We bought activity passes at $50.00+. Activities shut down if there is a chance of rain, NO EXCHANGE OR REFUND! Not likely to return here.
đđđ
When are you going to let Dawn give Chris a haircut? Haha! đ€Ł
Hey Will and Dawn
Have you guys ever been to Stone Mountain State Park in NC? We just explored that area and itâs well worth a visit. Weâll have a video and blog post out soon on it.
No we haven't
Wow, I didn't know there was so much to do at Stone Mountain! We went in 1960. My oldest brother was at Fort Jackson and we went to see him. There was nothing but the huge rock mountain with the beautiful carving on the side. Of course my bridesdoll went along because she couldn't stay home alone. Loved this and thanks.
So cool!
Are you guys going to be back in Gatlinburg for the chili cook off November 10
We don't know yet
Do you know what they are going to rename Ober Gatlinburg yet ?
Ober Mountain
Thank ya'll

Thank you so much wild woman
@@yankeeinthesouth
Before I left for home last Tuesday we actually stumbled upon the Historic Covered Bridge you showed in a previous video. I got to say, it made me a little nervous to drive across lol. When I realized it was THE BRIDGE I was sooo excited and yes I took a pic of it. Itâs SO BEAUTIFUL over that wayâïž
â„ïžââïžWILDWOMAN
@@bwgoofy
Why were you nervous when driving over the bridge ?
Is it old bridge? Not safe enough ?
@@asianprince8718
It was very rickety sounding which made me so nervous
I guess do to the fact I was on a bridge over the Tennessee river with my kids when they were very young and the bridge gave way and we all plunged into the river. We were on the news all day as a special report. Ever since then, all bridges make me very nervous. My friend who was with me Tuesday, said,âI know that took a lot for you to drive across this bridgeâ. She was right! đ
â„ïžââïžWILDWOMAN
@@bwgoofy
Thanks for sharing your story.
May I ask when did it happen when it was on news? What year ?
You mean your car was submerged in water? Sinking car when it happened?
I have thought about that as that could happen to many drivers, how to get out of car when sinking.
How did you do that you were finally safe?
I saw on video that breaking side window is best?
I use Google map, so I worry one day I drive wrong way and my car is sinking in water.
I am glad you were all safe.
Omgg this looks like so much fun đ€© I have a question me & my husband and children are planning to move to Tennessee next year he can transfer his job but weâre having a little hard time finding a affordable place any suggestions thanks love you guys channel â€
That is a hard one I have friends waiting to get into apartments
Ya'll don't be messin with Chris about his hair. I like it like that. I have very curly hair and we have the issues. It's cool, Chris!!
Is there nothing to stop people from falling over?
there are fences
@@yankeeinthesouth thank you đ
Stone mountain where the confederate president Jeff Davis and Robert e Lee and Thomas Jackson God bless the confederate government
Charlie, didn't get your meaning.
Do you mean many American former presidents were born and raised there?
Bless them for what??
@@thearchduchessofcool bless them for going up against the US government which is bad
No did not mean that
Passed this mountain man times as a boy. First rode the train and cable-car in the mid-sixties. Visited with grandchildren in 2021 and hated the experience. This 'park' promotes a questionable Southern heritage.
