Boogertown. Really. Not joking.... This is a real place. How it got its name I am not certain, but it did. While on our recent trip in Eastern TN, we heard of the legendary Boogertown and decided to investigate. It's beautiful....inaptly named...very quaint...and again, VERY beautiful.

We drove for a short time....Boogertown was only a couple hills from our cabin.
The Main Drag... |
We saw a lot while there...a few homes....confederate flags (the civil war ran deep in some homes)....and a few white steepled churches...
Boogertown Back Porch Studio....A real and very cute place! |
Art...in Boogertown. As it's amazingly beautiful there, I can understand why an artist would live there.
BoogerTown is very quaint...that or everyone left for fear of being Boogertown"ians". |
Rumor has it, the name is of unknown origin, but there are theories.... none of which include the nose...
More beauty in Boogertown. |
It's called Oldham, TN on the map....but to the locals, it's called Boogertown.
This is where you're placed...if you breath your last while in Boogertown. |
