We just had broccoli, bacon, and cheese potatoes with corn on the cob and country ribs. I used Apple Barn Apple butter to marinate the ribs in. So yummy!
My wife and I camped there at the KOA last week. It was our first time in Cherokee and the NC side of the Smokies. We absolutely loved it. Especially getting to see the elf every evening at the Oconaluftee Visitor Center.
Love the Cherokee area. My wife & I loved watching Winston run around the dog park - Laughing smiles on both our faces 🙂 You should start a Winston Forever channel 🙂
We visited this KOA probably 5 years ago while we were in the area on a day trip..it was a great facility then. We hope to take our great nephew camping in the near future, and this location is on the top of our list.
Thank you for sharing guys , I love the spiritual freedom in your country. Love it every yr we visit. Even though I'm not extremely religious,I believe in God😊. Today I will try the smash potato with similar ingredients here in Ireland on the Weber .
Oh my I'm sure going to try potatoes like that the next time we go camping. Sure thankful for living in this great country. Praying for you and of course Winston.
Your videos are just so relaxing to watch and all your wonderful travels are fun to see! I would love to make it to your area someday! On my bucket list❤️
I'm thankful for everything! Mike and Karen, long time no see! Not getting notifications. I just love seeing Winston! He's just too cute and so precious!❤️🐾🐾❤️ Really enjoyed your video. Those smashed baked potatoes looked sooooo good! I'm hungry now for a baked potato! Looks like Winston was having fun running around out there. Have a wonderful and blessed day and God Bless! Love y'all!❤❤❤
I'm very thankful for our Creator who gave us our very lives. I'm thankful for the history our Fore Fathers brought forth on this continent. Even further when the Puritans first landed on Plymouth Rock. The Pilgrims. We have a great Country established on two Documents that it is most certainly that we must uphold to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. I'm thankful for the men and women who every day fight for our freedoms. I'm thankful for Winston and all of the other doggies, kitty's, and all the other animals. I think Winston is so adorable. Kisses and hugs for Winston. 😘💖🇺🇸
We just went to Cherokee today and seen “Unto These Hills” outdoor drama. I highly recommend seeing this! It was our 41st anniversary. Please show us some places to eat in Cherokee.
Such a Beautiful KOA, nice sites... so fun watching Winston run in the Dog park...that was neat that the brothers are getting together before he deploys, God Bless and Prayers for all the Military and Pray for our Country...potatoes looked amazingly delicious...AMEN Mike and Karen ,,, we are Blessed to have Our Freedom and Love Our Dear Lord JESUS
I have never heard the trick of rolling your bacon up. Will have to try that one. We enjoyed as always watching. Thank you that every man and woman sacrificed their time and life for America’s freedom. Glad l can be a Christian to worship my God openly.
We drove past that place in December on our way from Bryson City to Gatlinburg and then home. Looks like a nice facility. We typically book our campsite a year in advance at Pigeon Forge KOA and I wanted a nice spot for this year so we just paid on it all year long. Looking forward to getting there in a couple of weeks.
Hello Mike and Karen hope you all are doing well I'm grateful that I can travel around the country and see all the great things that the good Lord created for us to do while we're here on this Earth take care and God bless
Our favorite ingredients on the tater! 😋 yum! We do a foil wrap tater in the fire coals, so we could turn that into a smash tater. Happy Camping 🏕 Freedom in Christ. AMEN
Ive been watching so long but having had and lost two Pugs I always enjoy seeing Big T and Now Winston. I live near Waynesville NC and love this whole area. Keep up the great videos and stay safe and Im going to get some Baconup and try the smashed Baked Potato .as far as your wonderful blessing on the Country I hope for the same thing, peace and freedom and I hope we all can come togeather and stop the hate and spread love and peace.
Cherokee KOA campground looks so nice. Winston is having so much fun running around, he is so cute! Those smash potatoes looked yummy. That light pole is awesome, like how it folds down. Quick question, does all your chairs,grille,table etc fit in the back of the Travato? Just curious since many class B's don't have exterior storage. We were looking at some online. Love your van,and we are still hoping to get something similar once hubby retires ...leaning towards a class b. Loved this video,counting our days until we get back out there in mid August! Love morning Winston,so cute. Have a wonderful weekend!!
It's a beautiful area and those smashed potatoes were awesome. Yes everything fits below our bed. Just have to learn how to pack small. Winston says hi! God bless!
I'm a veteran myself in retirement raising my hand an swearing an oath to our flag an constitution is my proudest achievement of freedom that I embrace. I hate to see the state that we are in now with the division it's not what I fought for an it certainly isn't what my buddies died for. I pray that there is a resolve of this downward spiral we are in. Thanks Cherokee is one of my favorite places been there many times.
i definitely appreciate the freedoms I enjoy. However, I also appreciate an hope that others who are different than me, also have freedoms to be who they are, within the bounds of what does not impinge on another's rights. We are in an interesting time of discernment in this country. Will we continue to be the world's greatest democracy? The World is watching and worrying about who we are.
Hi! I was sent over from @Mz.Vicky. i don't watch any type of these channels, but she had me at PUG!! so, i have a little ulterior motive subscribing😂😂 but hey, pugs got you a new sub!!! Look forward to watching! I had 2 fawns. Bubbies, 2006- 2019 Best friend in the whole wide world, i miss him so very much. Then Joey, he was a rescue, he was 10 when we got him in 2017. We had him for 4 years...we gave him 4 incredible years. We now have a black pug, Walter, 4 1/2 years, & a white Pug, Nora 1 1/2 years. Pugs are awesome. My son also has a Pug Leo, (fawn) same age as Walter, the He Had Winston, we all called him Winnie, 15, he passed a few months ago😢. So, looking forward to watching!!
Hi and welcome to our channel. Winston is 6 months and our second pug. Big T our first lived 15yrs and was the star of our channel. Winston says hi to Walter and Nora!
I’m so thankful for my Lord Jesus Christ and everything that he has done for me . I love your videos ! Winston is so adorable those smashed potatoes looked good I’m gonna half to try them too. ❤ Love y’all
Bacon Up? I have never heard of that. Is this something you find in the meat case or the dairy area? It's refrigerated I guess? I live in Middle Tennessee and originally from Indiana. Would love to try it.
We do have freedoms. We live better than Kings and Queens of 300 years ago, but... We fought King George for far less than what Gov is doing to us now, especially in CA. That is why so many are goin thataway. Everybody caint be a Gov employee, and expect reg folk to pay for their Lush life. Simple as that.
I am 61 years old and I didn't know to roll the bacon to make it come apart easier. So thank you!
I Pray our Country can stay united
Great video. This country is in need of PRAYER 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes please pray for Trump!
Our next president all the way!!
Winston was so cute with his morning blinky eyes . 🇺🇸 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Little fella is precious. ♥🙏

I notice Winston is calmer when Mike holds him what's up with that?
Campground looks amazing, and the potatoes look delicious. I'll have to try those. Love the blackstone, made pork fried rice on mine tonight.
I enjoy watching your videos so much! Good vibes from you two!
Wow, we are here now at the Cherokee KOA Holiday. Must have just missed y’all 😢 We were at Roamstead this week and just switched gears into Cherokee!
Catch you next time! Love Roamstead.

Hey will you be visiting other states like GA, AL, KY, Mississippi, etc. I hope so
I guess I've just now noticed that Mike always wears long sleeve shirts... are these shirts made of some sort of cool/breathable material??
Yes, they have sun protectant in them. You might check out our video regarding my skin cancer several years ago.

Thankful for freedom to go to church and worship Jesus. So many places in this world don't have that... The Potato's looked good.
Smashed taters with brisket and cheese and some sour cream sounds delicious to me!!!
Mmmmm

The freedom to worship the way you want to
Yes
I make them in my stove just like that . They disappear real fast.
Wonderful!
love hot sauce on top
Where did you buy your hose for your BS. I recently got a regulator and hose off Amazon and it didn't work. I need one longer than 6' at least 10'.
what year you graduate Powell Valley
We do have freedoms. We live better than Kings and Queens of 300 years ago, but... We fought King George for far less than what Gov is doing to us now, especially in CA. That is why so many are goin thataway. Everybody caint be a Gov employee, and expect reg folk to pay for their Lush life. Simple as that.
If I could just win the lottery
We've never played the lottery. We just try to work hard and treat people with respect.
