Hillbilly Files - Legends & Locations

How many of you have ever been caught in a heavy thunderstorm while camping?

I have been caught in a couple of them, and sometimes even aim for them and winter snowstorms.
But this time was a little different, because this time I was in a super cheap, leaky, amazon patio gazebo. :-)
I thought it had a real roof on it, like my last 3 did.
It does not!!! LOL

Oh well. It's those kinds of trips that you always remember the best. No one really remembers the easy, less-adventurous ones, where nothing happened.

How did everyone like that massive summer thunderstorm that rolled through yesterday?
Lightening, thunder, howling wind, and heavy rain.

I camped out in that last night, on a mountain, in a cheap patio gazebo from amazon... lol

The rational Leo side of me, was slightly concerned the whole thing may blow away at any second.
But the wild mountain goat side didn't care. He was having way too much fun to worry about silly little things... LOL

Hi everybody.
Just thought I would share a couple pics of my home made Hillbilly Harley. :-)
This is what happens when you can't afford a real Harley... lol

I had to build this bike from scratch twice.
The first engine I installed In It was missing the lock screw on the flower nut inside the clutch.
Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that It was missing the tiny little pencil lead sized screw, when it blew up doing about 35. lol

It just goes to show how one tiny little thing, can support something much bigger, and much more complicated, than itself.

What do you all think of her? :-)

Take a trip through history with Heather, Muffin the history dog, and your old hillbilly buddy Leo. :-)

On this special Marvel team up episode, we're exploring a very old and very beautiful country church with an amazing history.
It also just happens to be one of the oldest standing structures in eastern Kentucky!

And, a breathtaking golf course called Emerald Green that holds a much older hidden historical site, within it's manicured acres...

By the end of the day we had an entire golf course all to ourselves, riding around in a golf cart, in the rain, with thunderstorms bearing down on us, as we were searching a vast countryside, for a lost Revolutionary War soldier's grave.

It was an adventure to remember for sure!

We hope you all like the video as much as we enjoyed making it for you! :-)

Just thought I would share some recent pics of Heather and I taking Muffin the history dog out to make a video for all of you. :-)

He's a dog historian, and a Youtube co-host.
As long as mommy is no further than 3 feet away... lol

Take a ride through time and history, with one of my epic ancestors. :-)

Searching for a long gone family member in the remote mountains of eastern Kentucky.
On family land that was granted to him by George Washington himself, for his service in the revolutionary war.

Before you ask... I got 6 ticks, and saw zero snakes that day. lol

Hope you all enjoy the adventure, the amazing story, the scenery, and the search, as much as we did! :-)
