  • Hi from The Great Smoky Mountains

    I moved to the mountains about 7 years ago and I've been doing a lot of research on prepping and survival. I think I might have found the forum that's going to help me. I'm sure I'll be asking a lot of questions.

    Welcome aboard! My family was one of the ones the guberment evicted to make the Smokies Park. Plan on moving back there someday. We were all over the Cades Cove area. Still have a lot of kinfolk there.

          Hillfolk are probably all related somehow LOL but no, that isn't one of the family names I know of. I hope you enjoy the site. There is so much information in old (and current) threads. Use the search feature upper right. It will help track down a lot of good stuff.

            Hello and welcome from WV. My Great, great, great grandfather was from just North of you and changed his name to our current last name to avoid being sent to OK. Myakka probably right when he says all hillfolk are probably related. LOL. Sure it goes for WV. LOL!

              I was so embarrassed today. I got caught peeing in the pool. When the lifeguard yelled at me I jumped and damn near fell in.

                    Welcome from Missouri. Good to have you with us.
                    The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.

                    Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is you are stupid, and make bad decisions.
