Gilmer Texas My Home Sweet Home
Founded in 1846, this sweet Texas town is my home! I love the town and its people for their friendliness and hospitality. The East Texas Yamboree, a four-day event held annually during the third weekend of October in Gilmer, Texas, celebrates the sweet potato (called a yam in the United States) as a former cash crop, drawing thousands of tourists to the city for the occasion. The event has been held in Gilmer since 1935. But, this is the day I almost passed out in Walmart!

Ellijay Georgia 4K/Apple Capital of Georgia (DJI Mavic Air 2 Drone Footage) North Georgia Mountains!
Ellijay, occasionally spelled Elijay, is a city in Gilmer County, Georgia, United States. The population was 1,862 at the 2020 census. The city is the county seat of Gilmer County.
Agriculture is important in Gilmer County, known as the Apple Capital of Georgia. The city holds an annual Georgia Apple Festival in October.
Former President Jimmy Carter owns a pine cabin second home in Ellijay. Other tourists are attracted to the mountains and whitewater kayaking.
This area was long settled by cultures of indigenous peoples. It was known as part of the homeland of the historic Cherokee people. They had a village here, at the confluence of the Ellijay and Cartecay rivers, which together form the Coosawattee River.
Ellijay (sometimes formerly spelled Elejoy) is the anglicized form or transliteration of the Cherokee name Elatseyi, meaning new ground.[9] Other sources say it means green place.
Gilmer County was organized by territory cut from Cherokee County in 1832, and Ellijay was designated as its county seat in 1834. It was a fairly isolated and remote mountain community until the late nineteenth century. After the Marietta and Northern Georgia Railroad (later the Louisville and Nashville Railroad) was constructed through here in 1884, the railroad stimulated a boom in the timber industry by providing a profitable way to get lumber to markets. Many timber companies came into the area with their workers.
More than a century later, another major transportation improvement was construction of the Zell Miller Mountain Parkway (Georgia 515, named for Georgia governor and U.S. senator Zell Miller), which was completed in 1991.
