So sweet. Little man got to go to Man Camp for the first time this year. Exceptional Man Camp this year. I can easily see this turning into a mentorship program for boys and young men who need this type of input. Mr. Meeks is a man of wisdom, kindness and patience. He perfectly described God's love for His children. It brought tears to my eyes when he described your boys.

Would love to see more like this. This was an experience I’m sure you all will remember in years to come. Mr. Meeks said much of what I feel we see in your family and why we come to spend time with you. My baby is 32, and I still act like Becca when she comes home to visit. Thank you for sharing.

Man Camp! Oops, no tent tarp, no table, no tent tie downs? Nice dinner with that great grill you brought. Nice ping pong tables. That fire starting lesson was great. Going fishing! It's nice to have flush toilets when you go camping! Complementing characteristics is a great tip. Steve Meeks is a great teacher. I really like what he says. Is he related to Benjamin Meeks, YT "The Garden Guy?" Gatlinburg, cool place. It's fun to see Austin with you. So cute to see Henry fishing! Beautiful rainbow trout! I hope the bigger boys get some fish! Gideon did show a bunch of patience when he was fishing. That was great to see. Too bad you guys got skunked on the fishing. I'm glad you got to share the trout dinner with the Meeks'. Cute basketball game of horse and then game. Roasted marshmellows! Cute story about the ice cream and kids! I'm glad Hanna did have some of the ice cream. That story was good because it lets the kids know that you love them no matter what. You are there to guide a child in proper behavior but nothing can stop you from loving them. Josiah is a cool kid and he is attentive and a great worker behind the scenes. Gideon is a leader because he jumps right into things. Henry has a bright future for sure. Thanks for this video Rhodes family!

Hands down..your manly man weekends with the kids is my favorite episodes!…I miss seeing the Hollar boys with yours though…those guys with yours is a real pleasure to watch! Haven’t seen them around lately😢😢…..I live about 45 minutes (4th generation)..from Gatlinburg…when I was a kid the town was nothing like it is now…you guys are correct it was built up strictly for tourism..and Dolly Parton was the driving force for the growth..and now with the “moonshiner” popularity it’s absolutely exploded..and it certainly brings in the crowds…it’s a good thing and a bad thing though…it’s forever changed the area and it’s small town Appalachian quaintness but the jobs and opportunities that the growth brought the locals was much needed..but as for me..I would rather have the sleepy town back all day every day!…Blessings Rhodes family.

The Rhodes kids are great but I can't help but feel that they need to hear much more about God, how He loves them and how they should love Him. His description of each of the boys at the end was very good. I especially appreciated his thoughts about Josiah and the phrase still comes to mind that still waters run deep. I hope that Gideon will remember to listen as he was advised, so he can learn to lead in the right way. Great video all around.

Great video and gets me thinking about the story. If their sons told Mr Meeks, l don't want ice cream for lunch. I don't think it's a fun thing. We wouldn't do this if mom was here. Thank you, but no, thank you, dad. Or l like to do this, so moms included. No thank you dad. Who now is making the bad choice? What we might think is a good time or great idea might not translate to our kids. If the adult was corrected on a choice of junk food for lunch and dinner... are the kids wrong if they give attitude? At last, this is a story, and no matter what... love is the moral of the story. These are just butterfly effects that flash about in my head. Happy Day.

Firestarting hint. When you put "little stuff" on that little bit of flame you started with the flint or firestarter, read that as thin and not short. Very thin pieces will start to burn more easily. Lots of short pieces can smother and drown out your little flame.
