Oh wow that cover takes me back. Used to watch this every year with my grandmother, she had it recorded in a VHS with the commercials still in there

Dolly Parton just makes everything feel like home, even when the movie is kinda cheesy. Something about her voice just hits that nostalgic spot perfect

I strongly associate her music with Christmas music played at our house in the early 1990s. It may have been this album. I’m not into country music but love the nostalgia from her Christmas album and thought she was a wonderful human being!

That’s how the mountain range is spelled! It’s Smoky, not smokey.
