  • IMG_2667.JPGIMG_2673.JPGIMG_2668.JPG I'm not sure which event it was that you stopped there but some of us went there at Ron and Liz's Stateline II in 2018, a great place to stop at and I will get there again. I believe it was Darsi Sirknen's husband Ben that works there.

    • Good job, Ted. Yes, the second time we visited there was on the way to Stateline Cruise Ii and Ben hooked us up with some very nice goodie bags from Bush's Beans.

      We made another stop there once before. Ben also provided a goodie bag at that visit. Anyone remember when that occured?

      • I think the other event was Thunder Valley 2. That's the one we missed because of our move to Nashville.

          Nope, pretty sure you were there both times.

              Correct!

              • So, here's a couple of bonus questions. After each visit to Bush's we made another stop on the way to Johnson City/Elizabethton. Both stops were in the same town.

                1. Where did we stop on the way to DC Thunder and Beyond in 2016?

                2. Where did we stop on the way to Stateline Cruise II in 2018?

                  • In 2016 we stopped at Andrew Johnson Home in Greenville Tenn. I’m guessing in 2018 we saw something else there but I can’t remember.

                        That is correct!

                        One more place to go.

                            Yes! A great little museum with extremely nice folks running the place. I remember that they had cookies and drinks for us, but we were all so full from Bush's that we barely touched them.

                              • Hmmm, I have a few responses since nobody has replied. Sadly, none of them would fall in the category of being politically correct plus the humor may be missed anyway.

                                In other news, does anyone remember this item?
