Just stunning and the music perfectly fits the scenery. Humanity is now so out of control. If God would just take us back to those days and let us start over.

Cades Cove is hands down one of my favorite places on earth. Love the Smokies!

I love Appalachian History. Easy for me to imagine a past life. The Hymn is so fitting. How marvelous, how wonderful . And my song shall ever be. How marvelous.How wonderful. Is my Saviors love for me.

I love old churches. ❤

Beautiful!! That corn crib was unique and sooo cool.

There is just something magical about this part of the country. So relaxing and simple. Great content

So beautiful! The scenery and the old fashioned gospel music and the old Churches made me long for heaven. I only want to go HOME and live with my dog Spooner and Jesus FOREVER.. Thank you so much!

6:30 in the morning and you are reminding me of my home I left behind. How i miss my family and friends...... Y'all stay safe out there 🙏

Great music and scenery

Reminds me of a place I’ve only been to in my dreams. Absolutely amazing video , love all the old buildings ❤

Wonderful Video!!! Haunting rendition of"Everlasting Arms" , nice chorus of"500 Miles from Home" . Well done man, I love it!!

Thank you for this video. It brought back a lot of memories.

I love that song. Leaning on the everlasting arms.

Beautiful video! The Appalachian Mtns....God's gift!!

I have been there multiple times and I must say it's one of the most beautiful places in the world, my family migrated to Alabama from that area .

Loved you singing in the old Church

At 72 years young, this Okie's grandparents were born in the 1800's in the hills of both KY and Northern AR. They moved to Indian territory (later Oklahoma), and built old log cabins, barns, and buildings just like these shown. Even most of my Aunts and Uncles homes were like these. Brought tears to my eyes just looking at them. Grandpa also played the fiddle and banjo by ear. Excellent player that could flat dance with the best of 'em. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

Cades Cove, what a wonderful place to be. I do believe I can spend the rest of my life in Cades Cove. Thank you so much for this wonderful video, and of course the Song.

Leaning On The Everlasting Arms. Have a lot of precious memories there in Cades Cove, family born and raised there. Nice singing JD,Thanks and Have a Great Day 🙂.

Even in today's time, I could live in Cades Cove and any time of the year, this place has always been my favorite place on God's beautiful earth, and I've felt this way since my earliest childhood memories and I'm 55 years old and live here in the Southern Appalachian Mountains in Talladega County, Alabama.

Beautiful

Love the song in the old primitive church. The acoustics are great in there. Thanks for taking the time to give us another great video.

Just so beautiful. Thank you .😍

Hey JD ...hope you are having a blessed Sunday.. Dee 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✝️

Reminds me of many rides with my Dad back in the day ! Thank You

I love anything old ❤

Great video of the old log cabin that was enlarged over the years. And was done well too. I can imagine Daniel Boone and other pioneers. I'm not a musician, but I can appreciate great music. Learnt that from my dad with his classical music and hymns and from big brother and his '60's music. Many thanks. 👍

Love this park. So wonderful

Inspirational, as always. Keep up the great work!

That song about Our Lord sung by the man playing guitar is the best one Ive come across to date. If anyone reading this knows this man, please tell him so.

Sounds amazing

I live in E. TN and the cove is my favorite place on earth!

If I might respectfully ask...have you ever considered making a video about how the folklore of the Appalachias is directly tied to the Ozarks...especially since both are so similar and most of us "Ozarkians" can trace our decadence directly from the Appalachias back to Scots/Irish....??

Thanks for the Sunday drive. It was great

I have been to Cades Cove and love it. Enjoyed the video and music !!thank you !!

Cades cove is great love it beautiful place to go to hope you enjoyed your drive

Awesome Brother, love the music and the scenery

Beautiful music! I was just in Cades Cove in September 2022 but I didn't hear any music like that!

Simply lovely. Looking forward to the stories of Cades Cove. :)

Wonderful as always pretty scenery I live in WV my granny before she died in the 80s owned a 200 acre farm old log cabin it took me back canning the food killing hogs she made the best pork skins if I hadn't been a kid I woulda took the farm over when she died thanks again loved the song you done in the church

I do so enjoy your stories and music I live in the foothills of the Appalachians I can trace to 1700s one side but also potato famine Irish idk some of my forbears went west but not very far and we all across generations even far flung cousins we seem to gravitate back to the Appalachians

Awesome, my favorite place😁

I've never been there. I have seen alot on YT about it. Love it. Thanks for sharing!!

I saw where Cade's cove got 🌨️ snow the other day. Those places are so lonesome.with the Lord we are never alone my dear grandma would say

JUST SO TOUCHING THIS VID AMAZING MY MAN

It's a beautiful place😊

Animals came right alongside you it was amazing

Love Cades Cove, many picnics at the Henry Whitehead place. It was peaceful and not traveled as much as the loop. Rich Mountain Road takes you back to Townsend, but it’s been years since we took that road. It’s very winding and rough the best I remember. Really enjoyed your singing at the Old Methodist Church. I know they used to allow weddings to be held in the old churches, not sure if they still do. Your song reminded me of a childhood memory. I remember my parents having a record album called Flight Final. That record was like a reenactment of boarding a plane flight where the destination was Heaven. Thanks for the memories and the Cades Cove trip. Have a blessed day!

❤️❤️❤️♥️♥️♥️🤘

ISO enjoy Cades Cove. Benn there with all my children. My son and a deer got fairly close and shared a moment which as an adult he still talks about.

I love Cades Cove the first time I saw that one cabin with that open meadow behind it and the image of the mountains in the distance I thought what a magical place it was. Imagine living there sure it was hard but I’m sure if you were a spiritual person that view would reaffirm your belief in a creator. You familiar of the story of Christy Huddleston. I always loved that book Christy full of interesting mountain charm.

Nice! I Love Cades Cove! Its been awhile since I have been.

There's nowhere on this earth I'd rather be than these Appalachian mountains

I turned this on my wife says, that looks like Cades Cove. Then the title appeared. I did a drawing that was in that church looking out the window.

Where I went on my honeymoon such an awesome feeling

Cades Cove is one of the most beautiful places on this earth! Yes, I'm a little biased tho!

Geez, I’m not so sure the story teller was expecting comments on bitcoin and stocks and all. Beautiful country. I love old barns and buildings. Nice music in the church.

💜🕊💜

People make Bucket lists....if I ever make one the first thing on it will be to one day visit the Appalachian Mountains in all their Glory.🌄 Real glad to played some music in that old Church, I know those dearly departed were listening with big smiles on their faces my friend.⛪

Hi JD! This was very good. It was more meaningful to now see your kind face and your singing and meet you as a brother. Can you kindly tell me if the building at 3:14 was a barn?

Haven't been up there since my early teen... nearly 40 years now. Never heard "500 MILES" churched up before. Nice concept. Any source for the full song?

What a wonderful escape for a minute...I need to get back to the Cove... used to spend a lot of time there years ago... Beautiful music in the church JD! Thanks and have a wonderful day 🤗❤️ Btw... do you know of any stories of a young girl, dressed in white, walking on the road that used to go to Knoxville (I can't remember the name) close to a very small cemetery...?

❤️Aileen

I can't help but wonder what condition that piano is in ...

🎻 🎵 Song✨️West of West Virginia🎶 Artist🎙Dan Boner 🪄

friend is there any way for me to get all the lyrics to the song you played part of and sang in the church? my wife is a gospel singer and i would love for her to sing that.

What was the name of the song you played in the old Church? I like it but don't know what it is.

Hey J.D. What is the name of the song played throughout the video?

What is the name of this song please? In parts it sounds like leaning on Jesus, but not really.

Love my country life. Vote bright red Tuesday to keep our country freedoms alive.
