The book signing at the Cherokee County Historical Museum was a huge success. We enjoyed talking to everyone that came out to see us. I wish Jim could have been with us, but he wasn't able to make it. We will both be at the next book event-see details below.
Tuesday, August 22 Jim and I both will be at the Marianna Black Library in Bryson City, NC from 4:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m. This is a drop-in event so we won’t be doing a presentation but will be glad to sign your cookbook and answer any questions you might have.

"Slates" is the term for the things schoolchildren wrote on with chalk. The one exhibit reminded me that most people under 40 have never literally dialed a phone. Looking forward to more appearances from Billy Ray -- it's good to know a few of the old Carnegie Libraries still stand.

@SewWhittle Год назад

So funny when Katie picked up the phone that clearly said “do not touch phone”. What a rebel! 😂

@darlenethompson9325 Год назад

Thank you for taking us Along to the museum, for your book signing. I love seeing museums.

My daughter and I really enjoyed meeting you and your family and getting our book signed! We loved the museum to, there is a lot of history packed into that building!

@sonyafox3271 Год назад

I had a older cousin who worked with a phone company that would give family members free phones on occasion. Had a neighbor that could make wood guns and, my stepdad made all kinds of toys out of wood. Looks like everyone had a good day, Glad Granny is doing better and, God Bless you all!

You all are just the nicest people. I came to your book signing in Knoxville and you & the girls were so nice. You make the effort to speak with everyone and you're interested in what they say. It's just the nicest thing to not only be a small part of, but also to observe it in person and in your book signing videos.

Glad you had such a good turnout for your book signing! I remember a lady who had an old black desk phone that was used so much the numbers were worn off. She had had it for so long she didn't need to see the numbers.

My birth home of Belton Mo. is where Dale Carnegie (How to Win Friends and Influence People) is buried. Dale was born to the Carnagy family. He was sensitive about not being related to Andrew, so when he moved to New York, Dale began spelling his last name Carnegie. His own accomplishments, coming from nothing to become quite a lot, should have been enough! Glad your book continues to have interest and sell well. It is a treasure.

Tipper , I know you and the family feels honored that so many fans come out to meet yall and get their books signed. And well you should feel honored because your shows and the book and yalls very lifestyle is a great reflection of kindness and good family living that this country so desperately needs . Take care in your travels and always arrive safe . Kind regards to Ms. Granny to feel better .

Wow the museums itself is a piece of history. Bless Andrew Carnegie for his generosity. We need more like him today.

It is so refreshing to watch your channel, and also the Pressley girls channel.

@Sewmena918 Год назад

It looks like a very successful book signing! I love my book. There are so many more recipes that I want to try. When you mentioned the old photos, it made me think of my Dad’s yearbook. My husbands uncle was in his class at Central High School in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Years later, that same Uncle’s son was in my junior high yearbook, also in Tulsa. My husband and I met years later after my family moved. I thinks it’s interesting how our lives are connected. It seems likely that any of the people in the museum photos could have known your family.

@CelebratingAppalachia Год назад

Love those connections 😀

@laurafromme4103 Год назад

That little phone booth reminds me of my childhood. On the rare Saturday that my Daddy was off work, he would run my brother and I on errands our Momma had given him. After the errands, he would stop at local Watering Hole. He would get a cold beer at the bar and set my brother and I down at a little table with a little bottle of Coca Cola and a bag of barbecue potato chips to share. There was an old timely phone booth right there by us and we would play in that thing like crazy! In our imagination we were calling every person we knew! Sometimes, we wished Daddy would have another cold beer,just so we could keep playing in that old timely phone ! Thanks for bringing back those sweet memories!

@cumberlandquiltchic1 Год назад

I look forward to hearing more history on the musuem and its contents. That was a lot of fun!

@jukes243 Год назад

My husband and I really enjoyed visiting small town historical museums on our travels. My mom donated her grandparents wooden box wall phone to her local museum where she knew it would be appreciated and cared for. She loved her grandparents especially her grandpa "Pa". Pa was Dutch and would sing a certain song to her in that language when she was a child. Congratulations Tipper. I'm glad Matt and the girls went along. ~ blessings

I find peace knowing that we are not the only ones who still hang on tight to the heritage passed down by our families, common sense, Hard work a deep understanding of the land around us and most importantly a love for God!

You guys keep holding on to Jesus and your mountain way of living!! Praying you can keep making content that blesses so many!! Cause this world is nuttier than a squirrel!! 😂 ❤❤❤❤

I have a friend who loves to do genealogy. She loves collecting old photos of her family. She was eating at Cracker Barrel one time and said, “just look at all those old photographs on the walls. That’s somebody’s relative and they just gave those pictures away.” 😆 The museum looks very interesting! Glad you had a good turn out.

We used to have a museum like that in our courthouse in Denton County, Texas. Not a former Carnegie library, of course, but similar exhibits. I wonder if it's still there. I'm glad you had a great book signing, Tipper! Enjoyed the video, and God bless!

@veegee3291 Год назад

I so enjoy your videos! How wonderful it would have been to have been there and met all of you! An extra treat to meet Matt who this is the first time I've seen attend a book signing! Kept hoping someone would arrive with a giant bouquet of fresh cut flowers, fruit, or a pie. I would have brought y'all a box of your favorite popsicles! 😄

@dustyroselansall8185 Год назад

Tipper - I just read your blog for today about the table in the museum with all the signatures. So loved that! What a beautiful way to remember each one for future generations of those whose names are inscribed. I have heard of similar done within large families, signing a door or door frame, or preferably a kitchen table, or even a cloth tablecloth, where family would gather for special holiday meals, then the table would be past down, becoming a part of a visual memory.

@janetsmart-countryliving1059 Год назад

Glad you had a great book signing. I love museums! I once wished that we could turn our little building into a place to put all my old stuff- kinda like my own little museum.

@girlfromthebronxbywayofelb7288 Год назад

Enjoyed the tidbit about the Carnegie library. Even though the New York Public Library is an expansive system throughout the Bronx and Manhattan, there are within that system some of the original Carnegie libraries. It's wonderful to step inside a neighborhood branch library that has kept its original architecture even as other improvements, like elevators for disability access, have been added. I hope your town still actively uses their public library in addition to enjoying their museum. Loved the phone booth too! The college library at Fordham University had a phone booth that I would use when I was beyond stressed out working on a paper. I would slide in there and call a friend as a calming study break. There was a little seat inside attached to the corner. Honestly, it felt cozy and safe! And it was great to take a study break without leaving the library, because when you are stressed like that over university coursework, you feel certain you will leave the library, leave the paper, leave the campus, and never come back! Lol. I graduated with two dean's list pins, so that cozy little phone booth really helped! Just saying, many old ideas had strong foundations. 🗽

Wonderful video! My mother had a lot of things that should have been taken to the Carnegie museum in Miles City Montana, unfortunately it was all lost in a burglary after she died, it included two Crouse violins and various photographs from the late 19th and early 20th centuries from her father's days of his railroad career. Best of luck to you and all!

That looks like a very interesting museum also another successful book signing. I wanted to come see y’all at the original Mast General Store but it conflicted with a family get together. I was able to go to Mast this past weekend and I saw your cookbook on display. I hope I will have an opportunity to meet you one day in person. Everyone seems so happy to meet y’all and it looks like it would be lots of fun!

@nickik.9037 Год назад

Looks like this was a fun book-signing time. I look forward to watching some interviews with Billy Ray Palmer in the future. Matt looked like he was enjoying himself, especially around those old guns & knives. Katie was fun in the telephone booth. We had the old telephones with the dials when I grew up & we were on a party line for a few years too. Glad you had a good turn out. Hugs & prayers for Granny!!

@morgainedepolloc4161 Год назад

I am so glad you highlighted the museum in Cherokee Co. That museum is full of wonderful curiosities. For me, I remember the display of the moon-eyed people, a Cherokee legend. It has been a while, so don't know if it is still there. My Granny was born in Andrews and lived to be 105. Her grandmother was born in the southern Appalachians in 1823 and lived to be 112. She was famous for having had to kill a bear--i can find no record of it, but in the photos I have of her, she wears a cape around her shoulders made of animals skin. (They were Consenes/Quintons/Childers/Suttons). I would LOVE to hear more of the history from some of the historians and genealogists around the region!!

@MsCassieCrowe Год назад

@Sewmena918 Год назад

Fortunately there are several families that give away millions - maybe billions - Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (not sure if it’s still called that) and Warren Buffet has vowed to give away the majority of his wealth before he dies. They don’t always put their name out there, but there are some very generous people giving away a lot of money today. Olivia Newton John built an entire cancer hospital in her home country of Australia before she died.

Thanks Team, there is an old song, with words "Don't let em tear the little brown building down" please keep it, history is so important. I worked for many years with older Buildings, some nearly 200 years old. It always annoyed me when surveyors complained that the Building(s) did not meet current code. Memories with the phone, we had the exact style in the workers cottage where my Dad worked as a station (ranch) hand. Just crank the handle and ask the operator to connect you. The only problem, as a party line, all could listen in. The School room, I remember the use of the slate board and slate pencil :). Some nice guns there, been 40 years since I fired one.

@carlahoag7154 Год назад

I'm so glad they didn't tear down the old library building. Stillwater, Oklahoma had a Carnegie Library and it was wonderful. I don't know if its still there, but I used to take our son there when he was little. I much, much prefer libraries in old traditional buildings. The new "improved" replacements are so cold and sterile.
