The segment is followed by “Smoky Mountain Memories” by Betty Brown. Amy continues talking with Ann Hall and Marilyn Hipps on Stories of Mountain Folk. In this portion, they talk about setting up canned and baked goods for judging at Mountain Heritage Day and some of the things that were entered in the competitions, and they also share some more stories about their work and experiences in the office. “Smoky Mountain Days” by Keith Shuler follows the interview.
