Hickory, North Carolina - 2021 Downtown Walking Tour With a Hometown Boy! 

I love Hickory. My sister lives there & my dad grew up there. I recall going to Woodrow Hill’s cafe as a toddler. My brother lived there for a few years too. He was director of the city library. Great town, lots of good people.

Nice video Tony. One summer, while I was in college in Boone, we drove down to Hickory every morning to work at our summer jobs at the Broyhill Furniture manufacturing plant in Hickory. That was enough to make anyone be sure to stay in school:)

I have to say as someone who grew up in Hickory I was pleased to see this. I just wanted people to know that before Hickory News occupied that corner was Lutz’s Drug. We spent many afternoons there after school and especially on Saturdays. One of my fondest memories is of my Mama bring me to Lutz’s for an awesome pear salad. Just a little trip down memory lane. Thank you for showing our great town to the world.

I just LOVED this! Thank you guys for sharing.

Nice video and enjoyed the comments too. Some videos of the concerts under the sails would be nice. Even if I don't stay for the concerts, I love to walk through and just observe the crowd having fun. Good vibes

sure enjoyed the tour of Hickory. my father was from there and I sure loved every trip we took into town(my grandparents lived on the SE side on 3rd Ave SE). I am 77 yrs old now but I'd sure love to visit just one more time!

Looks like a beautiful slice of the south. Thanks for sharing :)

Don't let the secret out about Hickory........shhhhhhhhh

I love how clean this town is....thanks for the video.

Nice tour of a quaint little place and downtown area.The local beautification efforts have surely paid off. The old brick buildings are an architectural heritage to the handiwork of our predecessors. You sure have some funny lines in this video and i will have to remember the one about being weird. You reminded me that I will always remember that beginning lick to Crazy Train even if I live to 100. Great video Tony.

Beautiful town. I hope to apply to LRU for their graduate school program!

so nice. 80 and sunny eh? Here in Tallahassee, a sunny day that turned to some rain with 90 degrees. Back in the middle 60s I was stationed at Myrtle Beach air force base and I would take trips to the mountains on three day weekends. your two live oaks reminds me that in Lenoir, maybe, I saw a 20 foot tall palm tree in someone's yard! looked to have been there for 30 years or more and looked perfectly healthy. Hickory. A town that I might could want to live in! Thank you for the video, shaky or not.

Beautiful presentation my friend... Soo amazing place.. wish to visit this place someday... New friend here... Keep in touch mate🤝☺️🥂

I get hungry when I think of Hickory

I enjoyed hang out with you Tony at lunchtime today. We’ll have to do it again.

That's a laid back chill town. What's the cost of living there like? Like rent and taxes etc... The last time I was there, like 10 years ago, they didn't have all the places to sit and walk around. It's changed a lot!

This is so fun! Haha My husband and I want a tour from you guys so you can share the history of that town 🙃

Thanks for the vid - Been thinking about moving to the area

I just moved from Hickory...i lived at the golf course. Hickory is a very nice area..

im from los angeles. wife has an opportunity for a job there. on the fence of moving to hickory. a move from coast to coast is pretty wild imo. thanks for this vid.

Thank you so much Tony Lee! I play guitar also and have been looking at Hickory to live in. This was so helpful. Hope you like my guitar videos on here. Mostly old western and jazz tunes solo. With harmonica too!
